The beast locked in a cage looked like a lion with red eyes and two wings! It had a fierce look, and Damian wondered if that was the beast young students like themselves should be facing.
"This is a Winged Lion. But don't worry, it is only an infant and not an adult," Isac said, as he walked from side to side, explaining about the beast.
"N-Not an adult?" thought Damian, analyzing the beast in front of him of which looked immense.
Damian then looked to his side and saw Magnus, who had an obvious excitement on his face, and wanted to rip the cage open and fight against the lion in a fistfight.
"Crazy!"
Aurora still looked timid, and with many thoughts inside her head, avoiding Damian.
"I know she will come around."
He was not concerned she would stop talking to him. It was only a matter of time until Aurora got her feelings together and returned to speak with Damian like she had always done.
"Attention, everyone. This will be the first test. The higher ups of the school will watch, so you better do well," Isac said.
The class, which had some people who had their minds on the moon, returned to their senses the moment Isac said something about a test.
They had to do well inside Garmony Upper School, as that would be the clear-cut if they would get decent jobs, or would be discarded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I will free this Winged Lion, and it will be remain inside an area of 600 km. Your task will be to find the beast and defeat it. Also, you cannot form groups, and the one who gets the prize will be the one who does the last hit. And students can fight against each other, but killing is not allowed," Isac said.
Everyone present started talking to each other after hearing that, as it was a test happening out of a sudden.
Damian, who could notice strange things happening inside the school, like the secret society, Vanessa, and that student killed in the courtyard, wondering what was that about.
"Aren't this test too early? We barely had any classes so far," thought Damian.
But even if he had his theories, he would still have to take part in the test. So, without thinking too much, Damian prepared himself for the hard task ahead of him.
"The test will only end after the beast is taken down. So you will probably stay many dies inside this forest area."
Isac then freed the Winged Lion, who did not attack any of them, as it was afraid of Isac. It flew toward the forest, vanishing from the sight of the students.
"Go on. There is a barrier around the perimeter of the forest, so no one can get out, the beast, or any of you."
"And before I forget, forming groups is not allowed. We are watching everyone, so if you form any group, you will fail the test, and will lose points. Remember, only one will get the reward for killing the beast, but that does not mean your individual performance during the test does not matter."
Only one person would wear the crown of being the one who killed the lion, but not the only one would pass the test. The core part was the individual performance.
Damian was sure of if after Isac said forming groups was prohibited. So, he tossed the thought of forming a team with Aurora, Magnus or Theo, and prepared to act alone in that wilderness area.
"I will be the one winning this thing!"
All the students who were present, about 28 people, each went to an unfamiliar area of the forest, going as fast as they could.
Combat was allowed, so Damian had to be careful not only with the beast, but with the other students who would want to attack the competition, making it easier for them to get their hands on the lion.
And the best way to avoid others was using the best part of his ability: flight!
"Look who we have here. Damian. Are you ready to get beaten by me?"
The one who said that was someone Damian disliked, Joffrey. He slowly walked toward Damian, but before he could do anything, Damian flew away, shouting, "see ya, idiot."
"YOU!"
Joffrey was burning with anger. He tried to use his ability to send some ice spikes toward Damian, but Damian dodged it with swift moves as he flew from side to side, mocking Joffrey on the way out.
This time, he was the one who came on top, but Damian knew Joffrey would be a pain in the ass during the entire test.
Behind a screen, many others were watching the students. Only one person had its eyes focused on Damian, Vanessa.
She saw how he flew away and made the other student look like a fool.
"Oh, my boy. You are the best!" Vanessa thought, moving her legs as if she had something down there.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDamian did not keep flying endlessly, as that would make him tired, and that would get the attention of the others.
Still, he flew for quite some time, creating a gap between him and the others, meaning he would be safe.
"It is getting dark already. I should find a place to stay."
On his way, Damian saw many caves, but those were the places where everyone would try to go.
The trees would be much safer places to use as shelter, especially a specific tree Damian saw, one that was tall as a building!
It was the biggest tree he had ever seen, and Damian was sure no other student would can reach the top of that tree, only if they could fly, which Damian knew none of the students could.
"This is the best place!"
The branches were so thick it acted as a floor, and Damian found no troubles using the leaves as a roof.
"Now all I have to do is find some food and sleep. It is suicide to look for that lion during the night."

"Are you sure the Garmony School is nearby?" A person hearing a black cloak said.
"Yes. This is the forest right outside of the school. But there is a problem. It seems there's a barrier locking us inside the place, and I saw some students walking around."
"What? Are you saying we are in the middle of a school test? It will be funny when we slaughter all the students here," the person said, giggling like a maniac.
