________________________________________________________

Morning, in a certain classroom, in a certain seat in the back, a boy with black hair is getting more and more nervous. Since the start of the lesson, he feels someone staring at him but every time he lifts his head, there is no one looking at him. Well, actually... it can be explained easily.

When he look closely, he can see some of his classmates which are taking a peek at him and turning away when he looks. Almost all of them are doing it. He can hear slight giggles and some whispers. Maybe because the teacher, Mr. Black is currently showing some holograms and explaining something, his classmates are restraining themselves from jumping right at him.

The young boy didn't hear any of the teacher's words as all his attention is focusing on the clock on his Anchore and to the classroom door.

[09.57]

The classroom started at 8 in the morning and would finish at 10. He feels that when the bell is going to sound, he will be swarmed by a mob hungry for blood. He calculated the timing: the door isn't too far from him because he is seating in the back, so at most one minute and a half to get out. He must escape from this place. He only has one chance! The boy is slowly preparing himself.

[09.59]

His heartbeat is getting faster. He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath then...

~Kriiing~

''Alright everyone, it's enough for today. Please remember to read about this again. Okay you can 'leave' now-''

~Sreet~ ~Jleegh~

After the certain keyword is coming out, the boy opens his eyes while shining, grab his bag and run toward the door, opening it and flew...

The other classmate that recovered from the shock, try to chase him but the person in question was already gone.

''Catch him!!'' ''He isn't going too far!!!'' ''That way!!''

The other student starts to leave the classroom while trying to chase that boy. Meanwhile, the teacher is dumbfounded seeing his students leaving him. He stands there in shock. The last student, a girl with red hair grab her bag and started to walk to the opened door, when she is outside, place her hand together and started to pray before closing the door.

*****

''Finally!! I am escaped!!''

The boy, Arya, take a win pose while putting his both hand above. Seeing that, his two Partners, Airi and Linda is surprised. He recovered with a 'cough' and turn his attention, he was being chased by his classmate and manage to escape to the Gate Device and have his freedom, for now...

''Never mind, let's just leave this place now.''

Arya said that while running toward the south gate followed by his Partner. Unknown to him, after he escaped, many lights appeared in the town plaza.

10 minute later, Arya and his group arrived at the south gate safely. the tall gate currently still under repair, as many of workers currently working on it.

Airi who trotted behind him, asked while staring at the front.

''Well, I just recently know that the area was a dangerous place, so I want to go and check another location.''

Hearing Arya word, Airi froze.

Linda started to comfort Airi but her last word was said in low voice.

''Wait, What did you say?''

Arya just put that aside and started walking toward the hunting ground.

Nope,

''Hmm, which way is it?''

x2

Airi and Linda almost slipped hearing Arya word, well it can't be helped they keep going mission in the West Area, so went they arrived in the South Area they were bewilderment and didn't know what to do. When Arya looks straight ahead, it was the mountain range, to the right is the familiar forests, and the left side is grass plain as far as can be seen.

Arya started to recall his memory about the yesterday event, the mysterious person that called himself Lin Chen is walking away after introducing himself with a confident smile. Unknown to them, the Champione around them started to whispering each other.

'No, wait- it's wrong!'. Arya shakes his head and recalled far behind, about the chat for the monster habitat and the condition in East and South Area.

'Ah right, the East area is the monster-populated area.'

Surprisingly, Linda has the same thought like him. With a nod, they started walking East.

''We didn't need them yet, I will discov- I mean we are just going to check the monster here, yes.''

''J-just move already!!''

As Arya group just started moving, a cloud of dust appeared from the town plaza direction, they are his own classmate.

''It's him!!'' ''Surround him!!'' ''Don't let him go !''

Arya takes his equipment and started dash at full speed followed by his Partners.

Linda glared at him while pointing her finger.

''That right- Wait, that's wrong!! I am not a thief and I am not that pervert! And Linda, you are Princess, please think carefully before speaking!''

''I want to know about that too..''

Before long, they are standing in the grass plain, the wide plain area filled with green grass, the animal can be seen here and there walking lively. The situation looks calm and really pleasant in the heart... that is supposed to be...

What greeting them is a dozen of people wearing different armor, robe, leather with different weapon filled this place like an ant colony found a food source. It looks so cramped and didn't have any space between them self.

Arya, Airi, and Linda was surprised and just stand there in a daze. Before long, sensing their presence the 'Ant Colony' turn all their attention toward Arya group that flinched in surprise. Before Arya group can step backward, the one behind him already blocked their escape route.

''Errmm. H-hello?''

'''Its him!!'' ''Surround him now!!''

''Whaaaaa....!!''

Arya's face turned pale looking at the numerous predator-like stare, as they are surrounded in without able to move or struggle at all, Arya can't help but shout in desperation.

****

''I am exhausted... why didn't you save us a bit earlier.''

''It's fine, Leo.''

The boy with black hair is currently sitting and leaning toward the tree and complaining, the black armored young man in front of him snapped in anger but the girl with red hair calmed him down, she turns her attention toward the boy.

''Arya-san, you are too careless.''

''Urgh, well I am sorry about that. And thank you, I didn't know what will happen if you are not coming...''

1 hour ago, when Arya group was still surrounded they just realized it.

''Hey hey, how can you discover the skeleton siege when you are still in the arena?'' ''Hey hey, how can you get a Female Partners?'' ''Princess, did you really become his Partners too?'' ''We never see you in this place before, where did you go?'' ''You are quite close, did you become a couple? Kyaaa''

Etc, etc, etc... the question bombardment is keep flowing, Arya can't even summon his soldier at all. It seems that without he know, he himself has become popular and many Champione want to know his secret. Airi and Linda just stand near Arya and hug each of his hand with the terrified expression.

''Everyone, the Gigantorus has appeared near the rocky land!''

Suddenly in the far behind, someone shouted about something that makes everyone that surrounded Arya turn their head. A moment of silence before one person in the crowd moved first.

''Unsummon! Dash! The Gigantorus is mine!''

When he recalled his soldiers, use his speed to increase skill and running, the other copying him and chased after him in the wave while shouting 'It's mine!' 'I will first.' 'I will go!' Leaving Arya group that dropped in sitting position.

When he turn his attention, Arya can see Iroha walking near while followed by the black armored man. They move from that place to find a suitable place to have a chat.

''Phew, to think it is this exhausting... Argh, I didn't want to become popular at all!'' Arya thrown his body to the ground and shout.

Both his Partners now having a trauma and hug their knees with a gloomy atmosphere.

Remembering something Arya lift his head and speak to Iroha.

''Oh, isn't it alright? The rumored Gigantorus is the monster that has good material right?''

Iroha who stand not far from him only smiled and said. ''It's fine, its lie anyway.''

''So Arya-san, did you know about the tournament tomorrow?''

Remembering unpleasant feeling from certain someone Arya scowled and said in low voice. ''Yes.''

''I have a request. Please join the tournament, fight, and win to the final.''

Hearing the same request, Arya jumped to sitting position and frowned while opening his helmet visor. ''What?''

''You don't want?''

Iroha walking in front of Arya and saying like that, because Arya looked like rejecting because of his short reply, Iroha become misunderstand and showing sad expression. Airi and Linda showed 'He make a woman crying.' Expression.

''No it's not like that! of course, I'll join the tournament. The reward is- no I mean it's good to try right?'' Arya feeling the stare, jumped and try to fix the misunderstanding, but he almost spoke his real intention.

''Pfft... well, I will take it as yes then. See... you.. hmpff..''

Hearing Arya shout, Iroha was surprised but hearing his honest expression she find it funny and want to hold her laughter but it seems she can't hold any longer and decided to run away.

Arya ignores the armored man, Leo that showed ridicule look who started to chase his master. Arya shrugged his shoulder and turns toward his own Partners, and frowned.

As Airi and Linda are working hard to hold their laugh by putting their hand in the mouth, stomach and make their body trembled.

With a red face, Arya closes his visor while thinking. 'Did it showed clearly on my face?'

****

The night sky is clear and the star was decorated the night, the night wind from the sea is blowing the tree and shake its leaf and make a comfortable sound, added by the sound of the wave that hitting the rock, the place is able to calm someone mind. The boy with black hair is laying down and enjoying the scenery.

The boy, hear someone quarrel, get up into sitting position and saw the familiar figure. Although, the person in question is quite far and facing back, the long black hair that swaying with the wind and the beautiful blue eyes.

It's without a doubt, the second year student and the Student Council, Yukiha Marissa.

Why did she here? When the boy looks closely, she is currently speaking with someone.

'Hm, did I know him somewhere?'

Arya started to observe them, the person that Yukiha speaking to is tall with black hair, 'Is it her friends?'. When he deep in thought, like sensing his stare, Yukiha turn to face at his direction.

She giving him a smile, turn her head and saying something before approaching Arya and leaving the tall young man. Then the man figure finally can be seen, handsome face and long black hair that rested on his right shoulder. Even from afar, Arya can see the man clicking his tongue in annoyed.

Surprisingly, he didn't chase the escaped Yukiha but give Arya a glare before start to walk away.

''Ah, Arya-kun good afternoon.''

''Yes, good afternoon. That is-''

''He is Lin Chen, from the First year.''

Without Arya notice, Yukiha already standing near him and sitting down. Arya want to ask about why she is having quarrel but seeing her complicated expression after said his name, he refrains it.

''Arya-kun, did you know about the tomorrow event?''

''Yes I do, I planned to join the tournament too.''

''Is that so... that's good.''

''Haah... its the third time I am being requested like this.''

''I-I see.''

Yukiha was surprised, maybe she thinks that Arya is really fast understanding her meaning. Then with a gentle smile, she said.

''Un, nee Arya-kun please win the tournament alright.''

''Huh why?''

''If you are the winner, you can participate in All-of-War battle you know. I want to try fighting with you, you know. So promise me to win!''

Arya was too surprised and cannot say anything because of the sudden request and the bright and beautiful smile from Yukiha.
