Veronica and the others had eliminated 15 members of the Naughty Elves organization out of the dozens or so that they had found, which honestly speaking, was already considered as a good outcome for them. After all, they weren't the only ones eliminating other teams during that time.
As a result of that, they have eliminated 12 teams in total. While the other teams had only roughly eliminated one to three teams at most, they, on the other hand, had more or less eliminated half of the required teams to be eliminated in the game of 'Hide and Seek'.
Therefore, everyone cheered loudly in excitement when it was announced at the end.
In spite of that, though, it didn't really come out as much surprising to everyone. If it was any other team, then that would have been next to impossible to achieve. But for them, it is a completely different story since Veronica and the others have basically run all over the entire map of the miniature replica of the Mountain Wall range.
All the remaining participants were given half an hour to prepare for the second game called 'The Maze'. While those eliminated participants left their respective rooms feeling disappointed and disheartened as they have lost the chance to participate in the latter games and possibly win prizes.
After stepping out of the miniature replica of the Mountain Wall range, Veronica and the others quickly went to their respective rooms to rest and catch up with the others.
Leo, Orcborg, Bagley, and Selina also left the command room to Luke and returned to their rooms, as they still need to make some important and further preparations for the second game. During the game and before the game are two totally different things, since the latter would be all about planning for possible situations, while the former would be to execute those plans.
Even though they have the advantage compared to the other teams since they could still communicate with one another during the game, this still doesn't prove that they could take the Emerald Elven Battle Competition lightly and not be serious about it.
Everything is possible to happen before and during the game, so it is of utmost importance to be safe about it than be sorry later. At that time, they absolutely couldn't blame anyone anymore aside from themselves due to their lack of preparation.
While every participant was preparing, Elmont, Tifa, and Tila used this opportunity to brief everyone about the second game 'The Maze', just like the previous time.
”That was such an exciting and thrilling scene we have watched just now from all of our remaining participants! Don't you also agree everyone?” Elmont turned to look at all the people watching from the spectator stands.
Instantly, Elmont received a loud exclamation response of agreement from everyone, making him smile in triumph.
Tifa continued, ”For the second game of this year's Emerald Elven Battle Competition, we present to all of you, 'The Maze'!”
Boooom! Booooom! Boooom!
As soon as Tifa's voice died down, the miniature replica of the Mountain Wall range immediately began crashing down, as if there was an earthquake or something similar to that. A huge cloud of dust erupted from the ground, covering everything on the stage.
Whoooosh!
The dust spread out as the shaking and destruction continued erupting, but due to the Magic array of the Victory Arena set up in front of the spectator stands, it came to a halt after hitting a barrier and didn't continue spreading further on.
Everyone sitting on the spectator stands can't help themselves from feeling shocked and thinking that something has gone wrong in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, especially those people that had long heard rumors about the war against the Naughty Elves organization. Some even stood up from their seats while wearing wary and cautious expressions on their faces, in particular those members of the Naughty Elves organization.
