Chapter 2 - Third Examination ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼

The next day

A group is running at a slow pace in a deep fogged woodlands

Adding the ten people who passed the second examination and the twenty who are seeded, a total of 30 people

No, irl, there are 29 people

The exa More specifically, the deep fog where they could only see 2 meters ahead

And within that thick fog, running for about two hours

Many of the third examination participants had fed up expressions

However, that does not ue

Every one of the person and their basic physical abilities are high That is why there is no way that they would get tired slowly running for around two hours

ーーif we’re going to run, let’s run properly How irritating

In short, that is what theyfed up

For guys who trained to so that could be only described as irritating

Although, it see at the forefront is of course, well aware of that

She turns around, looked at the bored expressions of the exarins

And there, Junpei narrowed his eyebrows

“With Judy’s expression right now, soht

「Hey, Ami?」

Junpei said to A beside him

「n? What is it?」

「……do you knohere we are?」

Frorasps the situation is a littleothers have already dropped out, orby a thread

「Where, you say……? This is the Heat Haze Desert right?」

Hyuu, Junpei whistled

「Well then, the next question Roughly, how far is the adventurer’s guild fro?」

Thinking for a while, Ami answers

「……er than two hours…… the distance is probably a little more than a hundred kilo tricked, so I don’t have much confidence」

“Un”, Junpei nodded

In fact, they have already exceeded a hundred kiloo

「I’ll confir tricked?」

「From the start point, about 30 minutes to an hour, it was really a slowin ridiculous speed」

In other words, as aseveral times of the world record for the marathon in Earth, and Junpei and the others have run up to this distance

Even if they are exa in the B-Rank examination, it is not easy tothat those who have ician class jobs would have quite a lot of burden

Moreover, it is an abnor that they are running at a slow pace

As a result, a few people have already dropped out They run continuously until they exhaust their sta, and finally disappear without notice

「However, unexpectedly, you can folloith ease huh?」

「Well, ht after all」

「About you……I don’t expect anything about your fighting strength, but it looks like you have the minimum skills that a thief should have huh」

「Thinking about where the guild branch is built, doesn’t this desert look like a great exae, it is natural that one should at least have countermeasures for hallucinations and illusion techniques」

“Yeah”, Junpei nodded once again

「If you know that much then there’s no problem」

That’s right

The fatal mistake that Judy did earlier

She turned around within the deep fog where one can only see two h it is a situation where they are muddle-headed because of the hallucinations and illusion techniques, e because of that, and perceived it

The surrounding scenery

Right now, the scenery that has spread in Junpei and the others’ vision is not for nor is it woodlands

It is only dry sand dunes and craters that continue to the horizon By the way, the craters are made by the famous antlion of the Heat Haze Desert

「The faiant antlions of the Heat Haze Desert……it looks like frothened variant species There’s the possibility that normal antlions would be defeated by the examinees instead, so I think that Judy intentionally chose this route?」

「Variant species huh……you’re well-informed」

「I said this earlier too but, h……still, the ability to scout and lots of knowledge is needed Having things other than fighting abilities is very convenient when joining parties……or rather, one should know at least that et any profits」

「By the way……you know a lot about this world’s geography and living things right?」

「Didn’t I just say that」

「I could tell the antlions with just looking but……I want to know about those cactuses」

“How ‘aed her shoulders

「What do you mean you don’t know about cactuses? Isn’t that the cause of the illusions and hallucinations?」

「I don’t knohat you mean by ‘what’ but, I don’t know it so there’s no other way of saying it」

「Don’t tellthe status ailments with just your natural skills? Those cactuses’ hallucination is so that even A-Rank adventurers could be affected without proper countermeasures you know?」
