Team one went directly towards an open area where they are able to keep an eye on everything around them, Rimi and Alice are high-leveled enough to fight Horned Rabbits blindfolded, but they are here to work in a team, and their teammate, Emma is way less experienced than them, and her level is too low as well, that’s why they chose this location.

“Sorry Rimi-chan, Alice-chan! You had to go out of your way to choose a location like this because I’m weak…”(Emma)

“Emma, you should stop thinking like that, we are not on a hunting trip, we are here as a part of the Class, and our class is the Actual Combat Class, and in actual combat, one might have to fight as a part of big groups, and in such groups, people’s levels and fighting styles are all over the place, that’s why everyone in the group must learn how to fight with all kinds of peoples, and the most important thing is to know your limit and never go past that in the heat of battle, that’s why rather than feeling sorry you should feel confident and to never hesitate, and if you don’t know what are your limits, we can learn them together as we hunt the Horned Rabbits”(Rimi)

“Got it! Thank you Rimi-chan!”(Emma)

“Glad you are done because we have our first target in sight”(Alice)

“I’ll block its way with Earth Magic, Alice you shoot it in the leg with your longbow, and Emma you finish it off with your magic. We will try this combination for now and will try changing it next time”(Rimi)

“Yes!”(Alice and Emma)

Rimi used Earth Wall to block the Horned Rabbit’s way, surprised it tried to run away only for an arrow to hit it on the leg sending it falling to the ground, and when it tied to stand up with the arrow in its leg, a Fire Arrow came flying and shoot it through its right eye killing it.

“…We did it!”(Emma)

“Good job! Your aim was spot on!”(Alice)

“Your aim was really impressive!”(Rimi)

“…I really did it… I killed a monster, and even my level increased!”(Emma)

“Is it really your first time killing a monster? To have such an aim you must have trained really hard with your magic”(Rimi)

“…Yes, a level 1 like myself killing a monster alone is impossible since my magic is not strong enough to even scratch the hide of Horned Rabbits, I didn’t expect to be able to kill it with one spell, but remembering what you told me about knowing my limits and never going past them in the heat of battle, I started to think about how to kill it without running out of MP, and then I got an idea ‘how about I aim for its eye’ and saw the perfect chance when it fell to the ground, and at the moment it raised its head I fired my spell at its eye and it worked! I have always trained myself on how to aim at home and today finally I was able to put that in practice and it worked!”(Emma)

“I see, then our goal today is to raise Emma’s level as much as possible”(Alice)

“I’ll be in your care!”(Emma)

And that’s how Team one preceded, Emma, tried all kinds of combinations and strategies to kill the Horned Rabbits, and that led to her receiving 4 of the 5 red points of her team, and as for the fifth point, it was received by Rimi who was distracted by the appearance of the passing by Soma, that was when Emma noticed what was growing in Rimi’s heart, and that’s what will lead to Emma joining Alice in playing pranks on Rimi.

Team two did really good as well with the leadership of Zac Mist and the twin sword arts and experience of Nad, and by the time to go back everyone other than Nad were able to level up by almost 5 levels at least, Nad didn’t level up because he was high leveled from the start, as a combatant who fought in the ‘Flood’ his level was higher than most people in Akud leave for some of the teachers.

Team three did really bad because of Greed using his two knights as meat shields, and it wasn’t him alone, but Las and Mino were the ones to suggest this way of fighting, and they kept charging at the Horned Rabbits and block them with their own bodies, they were competing with each other to show their master who is the most loyal of them, and Greed took full advantage of that and kept hiding behind them and would only attack from there as well, and that led to Soma having to use Healing Magic on the two of them again and again.

Team four did very well, they used the tactic of the four brothers acting as the vanguard and would attack the Horned Rabbits using their weapons and martial arts, and Zeek would use his magic to support them from behind, they worked really well by each using their abilities in coordination with the others so that they don’t get in each other’s way.

After David finished his classes for the day, he went back home with a Horned Rabbit in hand, and when he opened the door and entered his little sister came out to welcome him home.

“I’m home!”(David)

“Welcome back, Onii-chan! …..w-what’s with that you have?!”(Delia)

“Delia? What happened?”(Mother)

“M-Mom! Onii-chan came back home and he has a Horned Rabbit with him!!”(Delia)

“Ara!...”(Mother)

“What! Meat! David has meat?!”(Father)

David’s family is very poor and meat is something they have only dreamed about, and David coming back home with a whole Horned Rabbit in hand is nothing but a dream came true for them.

“Where did you get this Horned Rabbit?”(Mother)

“Today the Teacher took us to the hunting grounds and divided us into groups and asked us to hunt Horned Rabbits, and that’s what we did, at the start, it was difficult to even hurt the Horned Rabbits, but once we started leveling up, it became easier and at the end, he told us that we can take whatever we hunted back home with us and this one here is my share of the Horned Rabbits we hunted”(David)

“I see…. So you were able to level up, it seems that you have a good Teacher guiding you……but never mind that! For now, Meat!”(Father)

“Calm down will you!”(Mother)

“But~…”(Father)

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

“Oi! Get out here! The thief who stole the Horned Rabbit from our place! Get out here or we are going to break this door for ya!!”(Thug1)

“Oi! Oi! You the coward in there come out here and get your ass kicked will ya!”(Thug2)

David and his family panicked because of the voices coming from the front door, but David who knew what was going on went and opened the door with the plan of letting them take the Horned Rabbit in hopes of them leaving his family alone if he did, his father and mother went after him worried about him and his sister behind them, but when they opened the door, they were greeted by the scene of a white-haired guy smashing the heads of the two thugs on the ground.

“Ah! Sorry about the disturbance, I’ll take care of those two so you don’t have to worry about them. and as for the Horned Rabbit, it wasn’t stolen as these two said, and here is the license I got from Leona the Lord of Akud, and you David, think about today’s battles, and we will review everything tomorrow in class, good night”(Soma)

Soma said that and dragged the two thugs with him as he left.

“…Who was that? Someone you knew?”(Father)

“…That was the Teacher I told you about”(David)

“So that’s him…”(Mother)

“Gyaaaaaaaaa! Stop! Stooop!!”(Thug1)

“Thtoooopf! Mfy arm! Mfy Arrmmmm!”(Thug2)

The thugs’ screams that came from the direction Soma dragged them in startled the family again.
