Ria’s perspective:
Two days have passed since the drinking ceremony.
Today is another day of school, but lucky tomorrow is Saturday which means students will get the rest.
The weekends in this world are actually three days since this world has two suns and two moons.
In the solar system, there are two heavy bodies which the other planets orbit around.
Like earth, which all the planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus orbit the sun.
Our planet Isal, follows two twin blue stars.
And in order to survive the planet was made around 15 Astronomical Unit (AU).
As my thoughts wondered in the deep blue sky, I immediately felt the presence of someone watching me.
Into an hour of teaching by Mrs. Celia, the school council president walked in the room to inform us about an important task.
Looks like he is not shaken by that man’s outrage.
The student council was there when that man offered me that deal he kept quiet the whole time.
I am guessing that that man ordered him to do so.
After he walked in, he gave Mrs. Celia a hand document, it was full, maybe fifty sheets.
He whispered something into her ears and stood near the podium.
“Ah, I guess we all saw this coming.” Mrs. Celia sighed.
“Yes.”
“Students, I know this will be a surprise to you but there is a special exam coming in April. We don’t have the whole information arranged but this is the idea we have come up with.”
While she talked, the student council president looked closely at Eigi.
I caught him glaring at him but moving his eyes when he felt being watched.
Near the seat next to me, Kakashi was the one who sat there.
Our seating arrangement was a one person seat where twenty-seven students inhabit the classroom.
The student council president then took the stage to properly explain the “Surviving Country test.”
“The surviving test is a test which will put your ability to survive, adapt, and fight against personal hobbies. Simply put, an entire class fighting to survive one test where other students will fight you to get into a safe position.” This chapter is updated first at novelping(.)com.
The explanation wasn’t very clear, but for me, it became as clear as glass.
The entire premise of this exam is to do task on the Island like country which he was talking about, but while you do that, there will be other tasks which other students will be doing in order to gain the first fifteen position.
There must be a special price which the winners might receive afterwards.
“While you are fighting to survive, there will be others who will be working hard to overthrow you from your position.”
In simple terms, it is like a spelling quiz.
The more points I gather the more distance between us widens, but the more the opponent also gather points with wither bonus questions and quiz questions, the more closer they get to overthrowing you.
The explanation provided by the student council president was deliberately kept censored because they wanted to create an environment where you would have know your enemies more than your allies.
“And you said it starts in April, right?”
“Yes, we don’t know the date yet but within that month somewhere.”
The student council president after saying the necessary thing gathered his stuff and left.
But it was already break time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
During the break, Eigi was seen having lunch with his girlfriend.
Her name was Miyu.
She had brown hair, indigo eyes, and a tan skin colour.
I didn’t want to interrupt them back Eigi somehow noticed me and called me over.
“Hey, Ria.”
Seeing that I had no reason to refuse a short conversation, I went to say hi then leave.
“Oh, hey. Didn’t see you here.”
“No worries, I just saw you looking around so I thought of calling you here.”
Even though they were dating, Eigi and Miyu didn’t even hold hands, kiss and do things other couples do.
“Oh, you shouldn’t have. I was just looking for someone but I didn’t find them here.”
“Your sister?” Eigi asked.
“Yeah, her.”
“Thanks, I will.”
After the conversation, I left for the outdoor space near the cafeteria.
It was there that I saw Eva, Princess Chloe, Princess Christina, and Ai having a tea party.
“Ah! Do I have to join them?”
I walked towards them.
“Hey, how are all of you doing this fine day?” I said, trying to make to joke.
“We are all fine. Thank you!” Princess Christina replied.
Well, at least they like jokes.
If I try to make more with my knowledge from earth, I am willing to bet that I could become a comedian for a living.
“Are you here to pick up your sister?” Ai asked.
“Nope, I am just here to give her something.”
I picked a necklace from my pocket and handed it to her.
It was the necklace that belonged to mother but after the accident, she took on the duty of keeping it safe.
Right now, I am the only family she has who is alive.
“Thanks!” She said.
“Would you like to join us?” Princess Christina offered.
“I am sorry but I promised to buy something with the boys so I can’t today.”
Well, that is a lie.
I walked towards the hall, this time I was two people kissing from a distance.
I saw that one of them had brown hair and the other had green hair.
Since, the distance was long I couldn’t see them properly.
I turned to the other way, not wanting anything to do with that.
But I had to say, that girl really looked like someone I have seen before, yet I couldn’t recognise who.
“I guess I will find out when the time is due.”
