Chapter 198: Students’ Curiosity
A few hours passed after I left with Team 1 from the capital, and we were making our way to West Port quite smoothly, which made me think that we had cleared the area too much before the exam.
When nighttime started to come down on us, the group stopped on the side of the dirt road and began taking out long pieces of wood and fabric from the back of the cart, which they used to build three tents.
One tent was for me, one for the two girls, and the other for the two boys.
Obviously, I didn’t actually need a tent to sleep in since I could just build a room with earth magic like I had been doing all this time. However, it was part of the test for the students to give their chaperones accommodations.
The point was to make it feel like they were escorting someone to another town, so giving me food and a place to sleep was part of their grading scores.
While the group was building the tents, I felt a presence coming from the towering trees and used my "search" spell.
It was a group of three E-ranked monsters that looked like small bears mixed with tigers, which was strange, considering how scary they looked and how low-level they were.
I kept my mouth shut since I wasn’t supposed to help them and waited for the group to find the monsters on their own.
A few minutes later, while they were still building the tents, Keiko said that she would scout around the area.
’Mhmm, point for Keiko...’ I thought as I wrote it down on my notes.
Without the rest of the group seeing me, I flew up to keep an eye on Keiko, seeing that she was walking straight toward the monsters.
