Heavenly Titania
Chapter 27 - Toast!
...The first day survival test....
As per the agreement, Akizumi is tasked with creating a tent, but he has his own thoughts, and Hiroki, Evelyn, and Shiori will be tasked with finding logistics for supplies for the next 6 days.
While walking, Evelyn also took the time to create a crystal and then stick it either on the tree or the ground as a way to return to Akizumi's place.
Evely.
Power: Crystal/Crystal.
Evelyn can create crystals and manipulate the crystals as she wishes.
Hiroki slightly gawked after learning of Evelyn's true strength.
"Come, Evelyn. You can make crystals. What is real crystal?" ask Hiroki.
"Yes, right. It's real crystal. These crystals can also be sold expensively to the market. But it's a pity that I shouldn't use this power by my family at will because it could ruin the market price." Evelyn replied.
"Oi, that way, you can sell all the crystals you created for a lot of money, right? The noble family is indeed different." said Hiroki who was a little envious of Evelyn's strength.
"But I'm not interested in selling all the crystals I've created. Besides, all my needs have been met, too." Evelyn said.
"Birth in a noble family is amazing." said Hiroki.
"Aren't you guys worried about Akizumi being alone there? What if he's attacked by another team?" shiori asked in a slightly nervous tone.
"Just calm. The boy was strong enough to fight the other team alone. What we have to worry about is this, how about we get attacked by another team while searching for a logistic box like this." replied Hiroki.
"A-what??? Attacked by another team???" Shiori grew even more frightened after hearing Hiroki's words.
"Well, we haven't found any monsters since that first time either. What if other monsters are stalking us from a distance and waiting for us to be caught off guard to be eaten." Evelyn said.
"Mo-monster????" Shiori goosebumps in fear.
"You can't say anything weird in a place like this." Hiroki said in a complaining tone.
Evelyn also realized something. During the walk, he did not see the flying drone at all. Evelyn began to feel a bad feeling and suspected something. Evelyn glanced towards Hiroki and Shiori.
"It seems that the two of them were not suspicious of such a small thing. There's supposed to be surveillance drones flying around here somewhere." Evelyn's mind.
On the other side of the Angleleaf Forest. Tatsuya, Manabu, Helena, and Keiko who had set up a tent near a large tree. They had also obtained 2 logistics cities thanks to the rabbit instinct ability of a Keiko.
"This way we won't worry about logistics for the next six days!" keiko said excitedly. He who was in human mode half a rabbit was slowly transformed into a normal human form.
"Bron!!!" Manabu collapsed dropping himself to the ground after making a tent for 4 people, "Finally finished also my task!"
Then, Helena creates a butterfly made of paper power to spy on other teams or monsters that are approaching the tent.
"In this way, we will know the circumstances around, whether there are other teams or monsters that are stalking us." said Helena.
"First day we just relax a little bit here. Tomorrow, we'll move. Rather than shut up and kill the monsters, we better beat the other team to get a point." Tatsuya said.
"Jealous for the other team?" ask Manabu.
"We'll hunt down another team tomorrow! We beat a lot of other teams!" tatsuya said while grimacing excitedly.
Back to Hiroki, Evelyn, and Shiori. Not feeling they were far enough they walked, finally the three of them had found 1 logistic box.
Hiroki and Shiori exhaled long breaths of relief after successfully finding the logistics box after a long time.
"Finally!!! We found the logistic box too!!!" yell Hiroki.
Meanwhile Evelyn again scanned the surroundings and saw a thick fog slowly begin to envelop the forest.
"Let's go back soon, Hiroki, Shiori. A thick fog has appeared. We can't linger here. This thick fog is very dangerous. Wild monsters will be able to easily attack us in thick fog." Evelyn said.
"By!!!" Once again Shiori returned terrified and immediately hid behind Evelyn, "Let's go back!"
Hiroki felt this test of survival was quite easy. But danger lurks them. Right behind, right up in the tree, you can see some hitmen lurking around.
"Are they Akizumi's team?"
"I think right. We follow them. They must be moving towards where Akizumi is."
"After we've killed Akizumi, we kill the three of them to remove the evidence and make it look as if they died from monsters."
"That's a great idea."
Hiroki, Evelyn, and Shiori started walking back to where Akizumi was by following the crystal. Then, a few hitmen also followed the three of them secretly heading to where Akizumi was.
A few moments later. Hiroki, Evelyn, and Shiori had already managed to return to Akizumi's place safely. But they did not find Akizumi's whereabouts at all. The three of them were quite confused.
Until at last when Evelyn looked up, she put on a surprised reaction, "That's there!" Evelyn pointed up. Sontak Hiroki and Shiori also looked in the direction Evelyn pointed at.
How the three of them were not surprised after seeing Akizumi who managed to make a tree house. The tree house that Akizumi created was enough to be filled by 4 people rather than just setting up a tent.
"How is this masterpiece I have made in brief? Instead of setting up a tent, I made a tree house up here. In this way, we do not have to worry about the disruption of poisonous wild animals that roam around here." said Akizumi who stood on a tree, near the tree house he created.
Hiroki raised one of his eyebrows and was completely distrustful of what Akizumi had made, "Oey, Akizumi. You are really beyond reason, why did you come to mind to make a tree house? Yeah, but it's better than putting up a tent anyway.."
"H-great!!!" shiori.
"Outside expectations." Evelyn said.
Akizumi lowered the stairs made of rope, "Hurry up! It's afternoon! Take a look at the view above." take Akizumi to Hiroki, Evelyn, and Shiori to go up to the tree, near the tree house.
Evelyn and Shiori climbed up the tree first and were followed by Hiroki who climbed up while carrying the logistics city. Hiroki put the logistic box near the tree house.
It's afternoon. The blue sky slowly turned a reddish color. The wind started blowing so cold. Meanwhile, Akizumi stood facing west. Evelyn and Shiori also stood beside Akizumi, followed by Hiroki who walked and stood beside Shiori.
"He-great.." Shiori was stunned by something.
"True, it's an incredible sight" Evelyn said.
"You deliberately made a tree house on the tallest tree, huh, Akizumi?" hiroki asked with a big smile.
"of course. I've been considering this. How does it feel to see the sunset directly above the tallest pine tree? We can also see how vast the Angleleaf forest is from here." Akizumi smiled excitedly.
"The first day of the survival test is coming to an end. We can't let our guard down. I'm sure the second day and beyond will definitely be a very tough day." said Hiroki.
"Rather than thinking of something uncertain, we better enjoy today.." Akizumi walked inside the tree house to pick up 4 glasses of juice. Afterwards, Akizumi exits the treehouse and gives each glass of juice to Hiroki, Evelyn, and Shiori.
"Just???" Shiori surprised.
"I found some Gooseberries around here, so I decided to make some juice." Akizumi said.
"Sadly, I didn't think you were good enough in the wild like this, Akizumi." said Hiroki smiling excitedly as he glanced at Akizumi.
"All right! Let's party on the first day of the survival test! Raise your glasses up, facing the sunset!" akizumi. He raised his glass.
"Good!" Shiori smiled. He obeys what Akizumi says to raise his glass to the sunset.
"This is very interesting." Evelyn said, she also raised her glass.
"Fuck you, Akizumi. You can think of something like this in the middle of a test. But what can be done, moments like this sometimes only happen once in a lifetime!" hiroki said, he also raised his glass.
Akizumi, Hiroki, Evelyn, and Shiori had each raised their glasses up to the sunset. The four of them smiled happily.
"Everyone, toast!"
