Merlick, King Leonida, and the other teachers are currently holding back the green dragon at Kalya's request. They didn't know what she was going to do. But because the principal had agreed and they had no other solution to defeat the green dragon. So they inevitably have to do it and see what Kalya wants to do.
While they were fighting the green dragon, they heard a scream from behind them.
"Get out of there quickly!" Kalya warns them after seeing her arrow go inside the green dragon's body. They quickly run away from there after hearing Kalya's warning.
Booooooooooooooommmmmmmm...
The green dragon's body was suddenly engulfed by the light from the violent energy explosion accompanied by storm and lightning.. The shockwave even shook and pushed the Magic Train off its tracks.
The center of the explosion was the belly of the green dragon that had previously been hit by an arrow. His entire body was swallowed up in the explosion. When the light began to dim, the green dragon had already vanished without a trace from their sight.
Kalya heaved a sigh of relief after seeing that the green dragon had disappeared. She removed the bow in her hand and released her fusion with Silphy.
(Then I'll be back first)
Silphy became a particle of light and reentered her body. Kalya saw Merlick and the teachers flying towards her.
"Ahaha... Miss Kalya is great. You can beat him with just one hit. I and Merlick attacked at the same time but still couldn't beat him." King Leonida was embarrassed that Kalya was able to kill the green dragon which he and Merlick couldn't kill.
"Yeah right, I didn't expect that Miss Kalya also has such a powerful artifact. Besides being beautiful, you are also lucky." Flavio joins in praising Kalya. The other teachers just smiled at her. They all looked very tired.
"Thanks." Kalya answered briefly.
"Alright, we should get back to the Magic Train soon. I don't want to worry the students." Merlick wanted the teachers to get some rest and restore their strength.
"Principal, shall we continue this trip?" Beatrix feels uncomfortable in this academy exam. Because in the middle of their trip, they were confronted by a superior-level magical beast. She didn't know what was waiting for them out there.
"Of course, even though there are disturbances in the middle of the trip, but we can't cancel the exam. What will the students think if we suddenly cancel the exam just because of being attacked by magical beasts on the way? Meanwhile, the students will take a survival test in a forest full of magical beasts. This might be an example for the students when fighting magical beasts there." The principal explained the reason not only to beatrix but to all the teachers.
All the teachers fell silent after hearing Merlick's words, what he said did make sense. They could only nod a little in response.
"Hahaha... Alright, let's end this conversation. We'd better get back to the Magic Train. Let's go back together, Miss Kalya." King Leonida broke their silence. When he spoke to Kalya, she had already left them back to the Magical Train. They smiled bitterly while shaking their heads seeing Kalya who had already returned to the Magic Train and followed behind her.

Inside the Magic Train, the disciples cheered because they had won against that many powerful monsters. They became excited about taking this survival test after seeing their fight.
"Hey, look at that! They won!" Rhea shouted cheerfully while pointing at the teachers who flew back to the Magical Train.
"Can you not scream in my ear? Even if you don't say it I've seen it." Then he opened his clenched hands. Inside was a dark red pentagonal crystal that had many cracks. The crystal was the source of the green dragon's fast and limitless regeneration power. After being blasted by Kalya's attack, Ziel immediately swapped the ordinary stone for the crystal using 'Space Shifter'.
(Did he eat this stone or did someone give it to him?)
He knew the incident of the attack by the wyverns was no coincidence. But after he checked Lilith and Berith who was in the carriage. He felt that someone else had done it.
"Yeah... Yeah, I know. But can you look happier to see our homeroom teacher beat the green dragon? Hmm... What's that in your hand?" Rhea looked at the crystal that Ziel was playing within his hand.
"It's nothing, I found it at the academy before leaving." Ziel answered him nonchalantly.
"Hee... Is that so?" She feels suspicious of him. Because her eyes could see that the crystal he was holding was emitting mana.

"They won." King Raghnall woke up the class S students from their shock seeing the teachers battle. Especially the last attack from Kalya.
"I didn't expect that homeroom teacher from class D to be so strong. She could even defeat a green dragon by herself." One of the girls from class S said in awe. Her eyes sparkled like she was looking at her idol. Of course, she admired her. Because besides being beautiful and elegant, Kalya is also very strong.
(What's so great? She borrowed the power of the artifact that Ziel gave her! Yes she is strong after all, just a little)
Princess Freya grumbled in her heart for not being happy to hear the girls in her class admire Kalya.
"Freya, I'm going to ask her." Princess Aishia got up from her chair and was about to go to meet Kalya. But Princess Freya held her hand first.
"Wait Aishia, they must be tired after fighting like that. So you better wait until we reach Alba Mountain range." Princess Freya tried to remind her.
"But..." Princess Aishia still couldn't accept it. She wanted to immediately ask her where Ziel was. But the real reason was the feeling of crisis in her heart.
"I understand how you feel right now. But please be patient a little longer. We must also respect her privacy." She tried to persuade Princess Aishia again.
"Okay then. I'll wait until we arrive at our destination." Princess Aishia finally gave up after hearing Princess Freya's words.
(I won't let you know Aishia. Enough with his master and the elf. You missed your chance from the start)
Princess Freya secretly chuckled looking out the window.
***
In an unknown place, two people had seen the battle between the academy teacher and the green dragon from the start.
"That finishing blow was incredible. I didn't expect that on this continent there would still be an artifact of that level." The black-robed person and also wore a black mask to cover her face talking using a voice that sounded like a young girl. The mask she wears has a Pentagonal pattern on its forehead.
"Isn't she a high elf who ran away from the Elven Kingdom? We can catch her and then return her to 'him', so he'll be indebted to us." Another person who was also of the same appearance spoke using a voice like a middle-aged woman.
"That's none of my business. We sent the monster just by chance we passed this place. I want to see how strong the humans from the academy are. And the rest is up to 'them'." The black-masked girl said coldly to her.
"Okay... Okay..." The black-masked woman sighed as she raised both her hands.
"Let's get out of here. We have to finish our mission." The girl in the black robe disappeared from there followed by the others.

After everyone who fought against the hordes of monsters returned to the Magic Train, they resumed their journey. Kalya who felt that she would be bombarded with questions after returning to the carriage, took a break to avoid those people.
Their trip went smoothly. After a day had passed they finally arrived at their destination, the Alba Mountain range. The soldiers guarding the border had already obtained information about the academy students who had come there. So they were not surprised and alert when suddenly the Magic Train came. The students and teachers immediately got out of the carriage. They gathered in front of the border gate to enter Alba Mountain Range.
They all lined up according to their class, and their homeroom teacher lined up behind the principal facing the students.
"My great students... we have now arrived at the place where we will conduct our survival test. We encountered a disturbance along the way, but we can work it out. What you will be doing in this exam is to survive and hunt magical beasts. We've already demonstrated to you before how to fight with magical beasts. The level of magical beasts in this forest is only low and mid-level so you don't have to worry." Merlick gave them some opening words and encouragement. But many students whose faces look scared and worried.
"I know what you all think, but you have to remember that this is a test. If you are afraid and feel that you cannot continue this exam, please leave the academy and stop being a mage or a knight. I will not speak any further. Just one more thing my message to you. Take good care of your lives. With this our test begins." After Merlick finished his last sentence, The Neigal Kingdom's soldiers immediately opened the gate.
After seeing the gate open, the students started to enter according to their class. The first to enter is class S then class A and so on until class F. They will split up once they get inside. Each class can cooperate with other classes but points are still given to those who kill magical beasts. If they weren't in a state of urgency, it was better for them to only cooperate with students from their class.
The main objective of this exam that the students did not know was to eliminate half of the total number of students in each class. The academy will only take students who are brave and can fight with magical beasts and can survive in the wild. It will show their talent and determination.
The proof of the students killing magical beasts is the beast stone inside the monster's body. The size of the beast stone for low-level magical beasts was usually the size of a thumb while mid-level was twice as large as a thumb, and the size of beast stones above that level doubled with each level. There are two assessments of this exam, the first is the individual score and the second is the class score as a result of the accumulation of students.
When the students entered through the border gate, they were astonished. What they saw in front of them was a dark wilderness that would be the start of their nightmare.
