Isekai: New Adventure In The Fantasy World
122. Selecting a team

The sky had turned completely dark. Star stars clearly visible scattered decorate the sky. A crescent moon also adorns the sky, making the atmosphere not too dark.

At the edge of the forest, the Hero Class disciples were already preparing to enter the forest to conduct a guts test. There was also Reon who carried a box containing scrolls with the names of the disciples.

"All right, now we're just starting to vote for names. But before that," Reon looked towards Zion. "Zion, since you already know all the traps in the guts test this time, you're forbidden to come along." Reon. Zion just nodded in understanding, because she did not intend to come. Another case with the elemental prince, Zuka and Avren who actually grumbled.

It was obvious, because if one of them were one team with Zion, it would make it easier for them to complete that guts test.

In his heart Zion was grateful, not for not participating, but because it could be a reason to cover up her fear of astral beings. Not funny if Zion is famous for being brave and not afraid of monsters or demons but afraid of ghosts. Where do you want to put his face?

One by one the disciples began to pick up the reels randomly and gather with their respective teams.

Hali put his hand in and took out a scroll. In his unscrew the scroll which instantly made his flat expression turn so upset. How not? Sein's name is written there which means he must be one team with his toughest rival.

"Ck. Why should it be with that popular snob anyway?" Gerrutu Hali is upset. Sein who heard that snorted did not accept.

"It's not that I'm forced to, I'm ogah teamed up with your rich grumpy tiger bin grumpy." Ledek Sein's.

An imaginary female appeared on the forehead of the lightning element magic controller. "Who did you say tiger booze huh?! Better, than you're an obscure scientist!"

"Huh? Clever and cool scientist like me you say not clear? I think you need glasses."

And... That was how when the two lightning and light magic controlling youths met, there would definitely be a long and wide debate going on.

Zion just shook her head to look at the behavior of the two young men. He hoped that eventually they would not attack each other.

Next, it was Kei's turn to take the scroll. In her unroll it was very slow like a slow motion scene in a movie. "Who would pair up with a handsome prince like me? Jeng jeng jeng jeng... Curious no?? Is anyone curious? Who is curious? Ah must be on the curious ya~" He said deliberately stalling time.

"Ish hurry up Kei! Just open it for a long time." Leo's grouse is upset.

"alright... Who will pair with me isaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.........." Kei paused his speech and read the name written there. "Yuka!!!! Hurrah!! I'm on a team with Zuka!!" Kei said and immediately ran towards Zuka.

Next it was Avren's turn to take the scroll. He hesitated a little to open the scroll at first. But eventually he kept it open. "Leo's.." His gaze shifted to Leo who was playing a fireball on his finger. A wide grin was immediately shown the orange irised young man.

"Yes!! We definitely won Aven!! No need to fear, if there are ghosts, we will just destroy them!!" Leo said excitedly with fire blazing in both hands.

Avren just nodded. "alright.. But don't run in the middle..."

Leo immediately embraced his partner. "A Leo can't do that. Just calm down!" His words are confident. No, too confident.

"If this means me with Ice! Hurrah!!" Thory exclaimed happily as she jumped up and hugged Ice, making the young man who was about to fall asleep startled and almost fall over.

"Ughs... Slow down Thory..." Grumpy Ice.

"Alright, now grab the lantern and as before, find the scroll that will be a clue of what you have to do next. Make sure to work well together. You will be declared a pass after completing the challenge in the scroll. Everyone okay??"

"understand!" Tell all the teams, and they start going into the forest in order to take the reels.

Until all the teams had entered, Reon's expression instantly changed. He looked at Zion who was leaning against the tree trunk. "I feel something strange. Is it okay to take on a challenge like this?" Reon asked a little doubtfully.

Zion opened her eyes. Her ruby red iris looks shiny. "No. This is necessary to train their mental and strength. I'm sure they can overcome the obstacles later."

Reon sighed, then nodded. "alright. And what about the devil?"

"I still haven't got any more information, but we better keep watch. I'm sure he's watching from somewhere."
