Chapter 88.2: Part 2

* * *

We hurriedly left the lab.

As we left the vicinity of the lab, the scenery changed in an instant.

The broken trees and bloodstains were nowhere to be seen outside.

It was amazing, even after seeing it again.

I could use it as a secret base later.

It was a place that even the Student Council guys couldnt find.

There were endless ways to use it.

Well, that was a story for after we survived this place.

Fortunately, I still couldnt see any human students from the Student Council.

This was my only chance.

Lets hurry.

We had to reach near the gate before we ran into members of the Student Council.

Since all the students of Sytan could use Stealth, we could just wait nearby until the gate opened.

The students of Sytan and I hurried our steps.

I had no choice but to limp with Luna supporting me, but I didnt want to see the students get into danger because of me.

Thats why I gritted my teeth and ignored the pain, matching my pace to Lunas stride.

And so, about ten minutes passed.

Over there.

The place where we first fell into the human world came into view.

The gate hadnt opened yet.

If the gate that moved dimensions had opened, I would have felt a surge of mana, but judging from the fact that I didnt feel anything, we definitely hadnt arrived late.

[What should we do now?]

Shhh, you need to lower your voice.

[So what are we going to do? It seems like the Gate will open soon.]

When I brought my index finger to my lips, Samuel whispered.

For now

Instead of giving a precise answer, I wrapped my body with Mana.

I had activated the Stealth skill.

My body blurred and soon blended with the surrounding scenery.

The students followed suit and used Stealth one by one.

Lets each climb a tree and stay there. It seems much safer that way.

[We jump in as soon as the Gate opens?]

Thats right.

Clatter, clatter-.

At my command, the students immediately moved.

Each of them climbed a tree and hid themselves with branches or leaves.

Just then.

Adel, should we climb a tree together

When Luna asked, wiggling her fingers, I shook my head.

No, theres no need for that. I have the ability to teleport.

R, right. Ill go first then.

Luna, who looked incredibly disappointed, climbed another tree.

I sighed in regret as I watched the students hiding their bodies.

If I had known this would happen, I would have learned the Silence spell from Robolt.

At the beginning of the semester, Robolt told us that he would teach us two spells: Stealth and Silence.

However, the Silence spell was a higher-level spell and was given as a final exam assignment.

Meaning we hadnt learned it yet.

I clicked my tongue in regret but used Position Exchange in a hurry.

Designation.

I designated a leaf that not a single student had climbed as my target.

Move.

The moment I swapped places.

Thwack-!

An arrow that had flown from somewhere pierced the leaf where I had been.

My expression hardened at the sight.

A sniper.

Even when I activated my senses to their maximum, I couldnt detect any human presence nearby.

That meant they were very far away from us.

Where are they?

I couldnt figure it out at all.

If I could just find out where they were, I could figure out how to deal with them, but I couldnt find the culprit who had shot the arrow from anywhere.

Mr. Samuel, can you find out where the human who shot the arrow is? I cant tell with my Perception.

[I understand. Wait a moment.]

At my request, a faint mana began to be released from the thorn.

The mana was emitted in very thin waves, extending far into the surroundings.

After a short while, Samuels voice was heard.

[I found it.]

Really?

[Yes, but.]

Samuel hesitated.

He opened his mouth heavily.

[The distance is considerable Does it make sense to snipe from there?]

Where on earth did he shoot from for Samuel to react like this?

I asked Samuel anxiously.

Where did the arrow come from?

[Over there.]

Samuel pointed in one direction with his outstretched thorn.

The direction pointed to a hill far away. The distance was so great that it looked like a dot.

It looked to be at least 5km away.

At this, I felt goosebumps rising on my spine.

In modern times, the unofficial record for the longest sniper shot was just over 3km.

However, using an arrow, it was a distance of over 5km.

The only student who could display such skill was

a member of the Student Council.

The woman who would later be called the Divine Archer had targeted us and shot an arrow.
