Magic System in a Parallel World-Novel

Chapter 122 End of the Wilderness Training Course

"Miss Camille! What happened here?" Valery and her team approached them shortly after Leo killed the Fiend Warrior.

"Huh? When did you guys get here?" Leo asked them, pretending to not know of their presence.

"We just got here… Right when you decapitated that Fiend Warrior." Conan said.

"Is that so." Leo mumbled before ignoring them and turning to look at Camille, "Now that the boss of the Giants' Valley is slain, the monsters here should stop respawning endlessly. I'm going to spend the last few days cleaning up the leftovers in this place."

"Alright. I will report this news to the Adventurers' Guild as well as the Headmistress." Camille nodded.

"Let's go. Nina. We only have a few more days left in this training course!" Leo said to her as he left the scene.

"Leo! Come to the infirmary after the results! We have a lot to talk about!" Camille shouted at him as he left.

"Okay!" He shouted back.

Once Leo and Nina disappeared into the distance, Valery and her team turned to look at Camille.

"Miss Camille… Did Leo really solo that Fiend Warrior?" Kevin asked her.

"..."

Camille pondered for a moment before speaking, "No, I helped him. I ran out of mana trying to kill it, so he stepped in to finish the monster for me. If you're going to make a complaint that a teacher had helped him gain points, you can do so at the end of the training course."

Camille didn't lie to them because they most likely saw her using Divine Punishment.

"We're not going to complain. Even if he didn't fight the Fiend Warrior by himself, it is still a fact that he'd landed the finishing blow." Kevin said.

"Right, everyone?" He turned to look at the others, who had perplexed expressions on their faces.

"..."

"Don't tell me you guys are actually going to complain?" Kevin asked them with raised eyebrows.

"I mean, that was Wilderness Boss, and an A-Rank monster at that! Do you have any idea how many points that is worth?! What if he overtakes us because of this?! That wouldn't be fair at all!" Erik said.

"I'm not going to complain because I don't really care." Conan shrugged.

"If Valery is fine with it, so am I." Jennifer said.

"What do you think, Valery?" John asked her, "What is your take on this situation?"

After pondering for a moment, Valery spoke, "Even if the Fiend Warrior was weakened by Miss Camille, I don't think it would've been an easy fight— at least I wouldn't have the confidence to defeat it. Since Leo managed to kill it, I think he deserves the points."

"You heard her, Erik. If you're going to complain, you'll be doing it alone." Kevin said to him.

"Che." Erik sucked his teeth in a frustrated manner.

"Anyways, we still have several days to catch up to whoever is ranked one. Let's go." Valery said to them before making her leave.

Camille retrieved her phone and called Headmistress Eve to tell her about the situation.

"What?! You fought with a Fiend Warrior and Leo finished it off?!" Eve was greatly surprised by the news.

"Yes, so someone might complain about it later. Well, even if we deducted the points for the Fiend Warrior, I have a feeling that Leo would still take first place."

"Wait a minute. Leo is in first place? Are you for real?" Eve asked in a voice of disbelief.

"I don't know how he'd managed to do it but it's real. I saw his watch a few days ago." Camille said.

"Anyways, I'm going to contact the Adventurers' Guild to let them know about the Giants' Valley so that they could send reinforcements to clean up the remaining monsters in a few days after the training course."

Camille hung up on Eve and called the Adventurers' Guild afterward.

Meanwhile, Leo and Nina continued to hunt monsters inside the Giants' Valley, and since there were only a few days left in the training course, they decided to push through it and not rest until the end.

Leo also had nearly 20 thousand Magic Points, but he decided to wait until after the training course before spending them since he didn't need any upgrades at the moment, and he wanted to sit down and have plenty of time to think about it.

Time passed in a flash, and before everyone was aware, the Wilderness Training Course had come to an end.

Di. Di. Di.

Di. Di. Di.

Di. Di. Di.

Leo and Nina stopped their movements when both of their watches started going off at the same time.

"Looks like the training course has ended. Any kills after this point will no longer count. Let's head back to the city now." Nina said while looking at Leo, who nodded.

"Do we have to get back in a certain time? I'd like to get some rest before we go back." Leo asked.

"We have 14 days to get back before the announcement. We're about eight days away from Stellar City, so we have plenty of time." Nina said.

"Great. Then let's get some rest."

Leo set up the tent shortly after.

After resting for a whole day, Leo and Nina left the Giants' Valley and started making their way back to the city.

While they moved, Nina said to him, "Leo, here are my points. As promised, I will give them all to you."

"Eh? I thought our points were shared." Leo said.

"As a team, it is. However, besides the team ranking, there is also a whole separate ranking for individual performance. Although it isn't as important as the team ranking, you'll still receive some rewards for it."

"If that's the case, you can just keep it. After all, I killed most of the monsters that we encountered." Leo said.????????n????ℯ????????. ????om

Indeed, since Leo had to kill the monsters for his quest for progress, he ended up doing most of the finishing blows.

Nina checked her individual points for the first time, and sure enough, she only had a small portion of their total points.

"Even if I only had a single point, a promise is a promise. Here, take it." Nina said before transferring all of her points to Leo.

"Thanks…" Leo mumbled.
