The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 261 - - Group of Challengers

"That was very cool, Henry! Are you really so talented that the Talent Reviewer just broke?!" Wilson asked.

"Well you heard the teach, I just spread my arms on the small thing and next thing I know… it broke apart."

"Henry…" Alex called me, "You already seemed quite confident before… you knew this would happen didn't you?"

He's overly curious look got me smiling.

"Wait, you did? That means… you mean you broke many balls before?" Wilson asked.

"…That sounds way bad when you say it, Wilson."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

…

After a while, when the students and teachers finally got their balls back, they decided to end this exam for today.

"Well this concludes today's exams. Those that didn't pass, I'm sorry, but you were just born of a shy day or… bloodline away. Those that passed, the next exam will take place tomorrow morning, so attend the stadium and report to any teacher that you find." Thomas said and looked back.

"Thank you, Princess Hanako again for spending your precious time here with us." Thomas thanked her, "May we see her in the next exam as well, right students?"

"Ye- yeah…"

The cheers were much quieter this time. For those that passed the exam, hearing my proclamation was hard for them and they were thinking whether to still continue it or not.

"Alright… let's end it hear then." Thomas said and that was it.

Today's exam ended with a lackluster light then the way it had started.

It was both funny and exciting how a change can deviate a whole person's mood for the day… but I'm sure it will probably affect more than just a day.

"That was bold of you!" Xavier said, "Speaking out like that at the stage, do you really think you'll win with me here?"

"If I didn't think so, I wouldn't have said it."

"You-"

"It's better for us to cross swords in the exams then exchange words on the street, Xavier." I say as he clenched his teeth and turned around.

"Well, he's not the only one." Alex said, "You'll have to face me too, Henry."

"You probably won't face me Henry." Wilson said, "I might lose in the early stage-"

"Bam!"

Alex hit the back of his head.

"Idiot! You should encourage your friend by telling you'll fight him, not the opposite."

"Why did you hit me! And isn't it much better for him to know that he's friend isn't aiming for the same title that he is!"

I laughed at their small bickering. Alex and Wilson were like that, one was calm and collected, the other totally opposite, Idiot and Crazy.

Their bickering stopped when we were stopped by a few people. These weren't the obvious group of students trying to bully us, no.

The ones that stood before us were all the ones that revealed they had Super Rare Pink talent.

"What you showed today… it's definitely unseen before in my whole life." Jeffery said, half happy and half agony.

"I've never heard of anyone before that had so much power that they broke the ball… it's even more amazing for me to know I'm going to have to face you." The rough guy from Class D said.

"Even with the strength you possess, I personally will try for it and I'm telling you that I'll win." The noble guy from Class C.

Ignoring them, I look at the guy in the center, the first rank from Class B. He took a step forward, breaking himself from the other masses.

He pointed his right index finger at Arthur, then at me, "You gave me a proclamation, now take mine. I will defeat the both of you and reign champion of the whole Exam."

Then the guy turned around and starts to leave, making us a bit stumped at his small talk.

"Your friend's not one to talk, is he?" I ask.

"Forgive him," Jeffery said, "He didn't receive enough companionship in his childhood since he was always proclaimed as the genius. Today seeing you ignited something in him, a flame that's burning rapidly and will tear down everythin-"

"Okay, just wanted a yes or no answer but okay." I say, "About all of your challenges and his too… I accept them."

They smiled, "Good! We thought you might probably run with all that we came with."

I look at them and wonder, 'You seriously think I'll run away because of some scrawny high school kids?'

"Well, same to you guys." I say and walk away, trying not to get more cringe because of this guys.

As we were out of reach from them, Wilson asked, "You really going to take their challenge like that?"

"Why shouldn't I? I'm probably going to face them anyway so why run from them."

Wilson nodded, "True true… but you probably could have raked in some bets with them."

I stop still at that, "…damn! I forgot."

Alex smiled as he patted my back, "Maybe next time."

…

Tomorrow came and we were at the Arena.

Actually we were below the arena, in an underground room.

There were the students who were going to participate and teachers with us. But the teachers had a big problem.

A teacher looked at the room and sighed again, "How the hell did this happen?"

"Let's wait a bit and count their numbers again. I'm sure that it will come right."

"How the hell's it going to be right?" The teacher angrily waved his hand, "It's clear they don't want to do it."

He looked at the room with only a few students.

"Let's face it, they ran away."
