CRIMSON OVERLORD - Season 2 Episode 57

Morning arrived announcing the start of a new day, all the students that went on mission had come back and the course had resumed.

Orpheus and the others were already waiting inside the classroom waiting for their teacher. Shortly after she arrived and stared at her students.

”It’s good to see you good and healthy.”

”The winner of this competition is undoubtedly Kyle. He got to the most points as he seemed to have killed more beast.” Their teacher announced while looking at Orpheus whose expression didn’t change.

Their teacher snorted before announcing the second place and third place. Kaguya, Leon, Ren Xiaosu, the twins and Alvinia were at the second place, third place was for Lilith, Amber and the others.

”Next we will talk about Ruins. I won’t waste time asking questions, I’ll directly tell you what Ruins are.” She said gathering everyone attention.

”Ruins are dangerous places that hundreds or even thousands of beasts inhabited. They are also many treasures in ruins. Nobody know since when they existed but all we know is that, Ruins are really beneficial to origin masters. They are classified by level.”

“From Level 1-3, they are low level Ruins. The floors limit is ten. While Level 4-5 are middle level Ruins, 15 floors. Starting from Level 6, Ruins can become dangerous. Level 9 is currently the highest level known and nobody has managed to conquer one. Those that went to Ruins are called explorers or Adventurers. Your next goal is to explore a Ruin. Consider this as a test, if you perform well not only you’ll earn many credits, you’ll be also get a qualification to participate in the competition at the end of the year.”

Leon and the others eyes shone when they learned what they would get as reward for performing well in the incoming mission.

”To have a chance to participate in the incoming competition against other students from the Saint Star Academy is a huge honor because of the final reward.”

Miss Quinn stopped and stared at her students, she observed their reactions and after seeing how eager they were to learn about the reward, she smiled.

”The reward this time two thousands credits and one month in the training rooms.”

”Wow! I must win at all cost.” Lily shouted, pretty excited at the prospect of winning two thousands credits. If this were to happen you would have acquired a lot amount of credits which can help you finish quicker than others, nobody wants to waste three here when you could graduate in just one or two years, at least Lily didn’t want to waste her time here as being outside exploring the unknown was more fun than anything.

The other students with the exception of Orpheus, Nemesis, Alvinia, Lilith and Ella were all smiling, their faces full of fighting spirit.

Looking at them Miss Quinn was happy. She was sure that this time something interesting was bound to happen. Normally, the participants in the schools competition must be selected after the mock battles, however because of the emergency, they couldn’t finish the mock battle, so the headmistress came up with this plan. Only those outstanding students who performed well in the incoming Ruin’s expedition would have the chance to get selected as the school representative in the incoming competition.

”Okay let’s focus here. You will be sent to different Ruin in a group of three and don’t worry the group have been decided, you’ll know tomorrow morning before you depart. You better go prepare as you’re leaving tomorrow.” Their teacher announced before bringing today lesson to an end. She vanished shortly after.

Leon together with Daneel and Daniel left hurriedly while Ren Xiaosu was trying to invite Orpheus to go eat together with them.

”Kyle, let’s go. I’m inviting you. We haven’t seen each other in while so I think we should spend time together to catch. I’ll tell you what I went through and you’ll do the same.” Xiaosu said while trying to drag Orpheus with him but he dodged his hand.

”Sorry, I’ve something else planned.” Orpheus refused him but knowing how stubborn this guy was, there was no way he would give up after the first try and as he doubted, Ren Xiaosu didn’t give up.

”Come on man, I’m your friend. Please don’t let me down and let’s go.”

”Sorry, but he can’t as we have something planned.” Kaguya butt in and took Orpheus’s hand.

Standing not too far from the entrance, Nemesis chuckled before crossing her arms as if she was about to enjoy a good show.

And as expected it happened.

”What?” Ren Xiaowen was the one that shouted. Stepping forward she asked Kaguya.

”Since when do you two became so close?” She asked, her eyes locked on their entwined hands.

Kaguya chuckled as she answered. ”Well, since the day I decided that he will be my man.”

”Ehh?”

Ren Xiaowen thought she had misheard, she was not the only thought, everyone else except the concerned party were pretty shocked by Kaguya’s bold declaration.

Xiaosu was alternatively looking at Kaguya then Orpheus and Nemesis, he smelled something incredible going on.

”That’s my brother. I-“

Before he could finish his words he was slapped in back of the head by his fuming fiancee.

”You better not think doing something that could cost you your life.”

“!”

A chill crawled up Xiaosu’s spine as he realized what she meant. He had never thought of taking another woman anyway.

While the two were running their own drama.

On the twin goddesses side, Lily snorted feeling annoyed for some reason while Ella sighed before there was a look of determination appearing inside her eyes.

Seeing this Alvinia who was about to get angry smiled mumbling.

”I guess I should let it slide.”

Following the two they left the classroom.

”You don’t have to be so surprised. His is the man I want to marry and I don’t mind sharing him but only with worthy women.” Kaguya made another bold declaration and Ella who heard this couldn’t help but find her interesting.

”Stop wasting time and let go.” Orpheus said before departing, Kaguya chased after him leaving the dumbfounded crowd behind.

While Amber and Lilith found their master incredible, the latter was not really in good mood.

”Why did you do that?” He asked her.

”Did what?” Kaguya asked with her head tilted to the side, she was acting innocent.

”Don’t play that game with me as you know well what I’m talking about.”

”Ah! You don’t have to be angry. I did that because I’m giving someone a push and because I want a place in your heart. Helping her is equal to helping myself.” Kaguya finally explained the reason why she did what she did.

”It is that so?” Orpheus smiled. This girl is too cunning.
