Chapter V – The Elite

"Oh! You came! You want to see your sempais take the test eh?"
sempai upperclassman

"Hmph… It hurts my pride to call them my sempais. They don't even know what they are in."

"Toshee, you should not be like that! I know you became a knight at the age of 12, but please don't be like that! They are doing their best to prove themselves in this test and that is the result of their hard work!"

"Hard work! What is that! We are destined to do things. Things are already predetermined and you cannot change it. The weak are weak, and the strong are strong. Nothing changes over time."

"I will not tolerate this. Someday, you will find your match. He or she will teach you how to live in this cruel world. Time will tell"

"Hmph… I see… Interesting… Then I will wait then for your so called person who will kick my ass. Nobody can."

Meanwhile, at Prontera Knights Guild Infirmary

"Hmm… Where… Where am I?"

"Oh, Richard! You're awake!"

"WAAAAAAAAA! NOT THE GEEK GIRL AGAIN! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM!" Richard screamed

"I was assigned to your personal care by the head nurse, so you won't have time to run away like you did last time." Jennifer giggled.

"Say… HOW THE HELL DID I GET BACK HERE!"

"I carried you… Why?"

"What! You! Carry me! AHAHAHA!"

"You don't believe me? Fine, nobody is forcing you to."

"Just stay out of my way!"

"Take my job then."

"My ass!"

"JEEZ! I don't even know why I carried you back! I could have left you alone there and let you die."

"Yeah! I think that was better!"

"AAAARGH! ENOUGH!" Jennifer left pissed off

"Finally… Now I can have some peace and quiet! Now! Time for a nap!"

An hour later…

"I… I… I… can't sleep!"

"Pretty boring huh?" A nurse said.

"Yeah. Say, where did the geek go?"

"The geek?"

"Oh, I mean Jenny."

"Jenny? Are you that close?"

Richard blushed

"Wha… WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!"

"You're mad… It's true then? Oh… and you're all red! Hmm… Does this mean…?"

"GET THE HELL OUT OF MY ROOM!"

"Yeah, yeah…" The nurse went out of the room giggling.

"WHAT'S WRONG WITH EVERYBODY TODAY!"
