One day, when the two rivals first subject was P.E., they were given the task to go and jog all the way to Regorovia forest. After they completed their task, their professor gave them a huge surprise. The professor told them that the one who manages to get the diamond in the tree house will get extra points in exams. At first everyone rejoiced especially Samuel and Sophia since they know that the one who will get the diamond will be able to leave the other in the dust. Not long later the student began to excitedly ask where the tree house was hidden, the professor, with a smug grin gave an even bigger surprise by telling them with a voice filled with pride that the whole forest is a tree house!

The students then began to clamor how easy the task was going to be but the professor dumped cold water on their motivation by telling them of its difficulty. He then casted a flame spell on the tree and heavily implied that when the flame gets extinguished the task is over. This caused panic among the students, but with the temptation of extra exam scores before them, they each began to climb a tree. Not long later everyone was complaining how difficult the task given to them was which made their professor laugh out loud. Yes, all of them were about to give up except for a single person. Even after the flame remnants from the flame spell vanished Samuel still persevered and did his best to climb the tree until he was successful and managed to get the diamond.

Because of what Samuel did, the students complained to the professor but Samuel refuted that it was not said in the rule and was just implied. The students then looked at the professor for confirmation, making the professor smiling in a irritating way, confirming Samuel’s words. Sophia the suddenly went near Samuel and quietly mutter “I will get revenge next time”.

The activity that followed after was escaping from a maze. The professor having been carried away with the mood, told them the one who finishes first will also get extra points in their exam. Sophia, now having a chance to get revenge, seriously tried her best unlike Samuel who became smug thinking he will get extra points again. When everyone in the class went inside the maze they realized that it was more difficult than the previous task. Samuel after fumbling about in the maze, came out after an hour. Thinking he was first because no one was around, Samuel went to the professor with prideful steps who told him that he was placed 2nd and that the first one who finished escaping from the maze was Sophia, who went first to the academy to wash up. Samuel got pissed because he lost his advantage over Sophia but later calmed down thinking that it’s just a tie because he won in the first task.

The professor while looking at Samuel walking back dejectedly, thought of how the two of them complimented each the other’s abilities. Samuel had unparalleled knowledge and intellect while Sophia had very keen senses and instinct as if she was some wild beast. Although they also had their weaknesses, the other can help remove this. The professor thinking that the two of them would had been unstoppable if they became partners sighed. Suddenly he thought of a crazy idea that might just work. He then began formulating the plan as he waited for the students to finish the task given with a smile on his face.
