Chapter 147: Little Princess, Don't You Feel Cold?
Rayne held his pained tongue, quickly stood up, looking sad and angry.
Out of consideration for his friend, he didn't say anything harsh. He now wanted to sneak away but felt it would be more embarrassing.
So he could only hold back his sadness and a strange feeling in his heart, sticking out his tongue, he shouted at Fenix, "Master Fei Li, in this..."
Jonas also snapped out of his shock at this moment, looking at Rayne with a somewhat complicated expression.
How should I put it, she always thought that although Rayne was a bit silly, he was still a very nice person, with a positive and cheerful personality, helpful and kind, although the two were opponents in the individual hunting competition, they had also built a deep friendship.
To be honest, she had a bit of a crush on Rayne, but... there was always an indescribable feeling that made her hesitant to move beyond friendship.
Seeing this scene now, Jonas knew exactly what was strange.
These two boys have such a close relationship!
As a hunter, Jonas had very sharp eyes, and his ability to observe and understand people's expressions was also very high.
Faced with such a situation, Rayne didn't show a hint of disgust, but the other boy, his face was actually a little red at this moment?
Rayne treated all girls the same way, but among the same gender, it was Sherlock with whom he had the closest relationship, the two were almost inseparable.
This is the truth!
Jonas even imagined embarrassing and exciting scenes, and wanted to stir things up for fun for everyone's friendship, but she couldn't think any further at the moment.
Seeing Rayne still acting foolishly, Jonas quickly stopped him, "Can you please understand the situation first? Clearly, it was those people who surrounded Young Master Rin first, and Young Master Rin took their loot to teach them a lesson!"
Rayne hesitated, but still felt aggrieved, "But..."
"Hey, hey, are you misunderstanding? I was planning to do some looting, and just happened to encounter those fools getting in the way of my spear."
Rayne ignored Rin's argument and continued, "Even so, I will never allow him to bully my friend!"
Then, Jonas' iron fist greeted Rayne.
After giving him a thump, Jonas continued to hold Rayne's head down, apologizing to Rin, "Sorry, Young Master Rin, you know this guy, he's a bit dense. I apologize on his behalf for his rudeness."
Rin wasn't too upset then, he was the type to act tough only when necessary, especially considering that he had already, well, taught Rayne a lesson before.
So, Rin proudly lifted his chin and impatiently said, "Then quickly get rid of this annoying male-only Back Mountain Ape (a species where during the breeding period, one of the two males will transform into a female and after giving birth will transform back into a male), I'm so irritated!"
Seeing Jonas dragging the dazed Rayne and the somewhat dazed Sherlock to the other side, Rin then snorted coldly and lowered his arms.
At that moment, Suyu approached him with a smile and whispered, "Junior, are you interested in shewen? Do you want me to teach you?"
"Bad woman, go away! Little Rin just wants to kiss me!"
Silly elk immediately jumped out, grabbing Rin's arm, while Waste Hero simultaneously stabbed Suyu with the sheath of her sword.
"Even if, tundere, tongue, it's with me."
Suyu dodged and smiled, "By the way, little princess, don't you feel a bit chilly, might you catch a cold?"
Her tone was incredibly gentle, sounding just like a caring older sister checking on her younger sister.
Silly elk started steaming, and ahoge hair was swaying from side to side, looking like they might collapse at any moment.
Rin frowned, wondering what trouble these two people were up to. Even Waste Hero's dull eyes were scanning back and forth between them, then landing on silly elk, showing a hint of confusion.
Feeling everyone's stares, silly elk lowered her head, nervously fidgeting with her hands. Honestly, she did feel a bit chilly, but would it be strange to cast the Purification Spell now?
Fortunately, the teacher and all the students arrived soon after and were about to announce the final results of the competition.
Rayne saw Rin and wanted to come over and say something, but in the end hesitated and was taken aside by Sherlock.
The teachers collected the students' prizes and began to evaluate them one by one.
It took a whole hour to finish the counting.
Yuki looked at the completed list and a satisfied smile appeared in the corner of her eyes, openly giving her younger brother a comforting look.
Originally, there were a total of six teams, but now one team had been disqualified, leaving only five.
"First place, Fenix team, with a score of 13,222 points, second place Rayne team, with 6,543 points, third place..."
When Rin heard his name at the top of the list, he wasn't surprised and proudly lifted his chin. But when he heard Rayne's name, he was somewhat surprised.
It's no wonder he's the main character, even though he's no longer on the same team as the hero, he has nearly twice as many points as anyone else.
If he hadn't raided a few teams, his points probably would have only reached second place.
What in the world! A group of Flash Mouse is worth three thousand points each!
Darn it, the luck of the three main girls in my team combined is still not as good as that of a simpleton like Rayne? What are these foolish main girls even using their luck for?!
After announcing the results of the competition, Yuki immediately left with her school's teachers and students, ready to return to the base to let her brother rest properly.
As for the remaining two academies, both the teachers and students looked puzzled.
As some newcomers might have noticed, there are a total of six teams from the two academies, and Rin managed to snatch all six teams, so...
Well, it's not really anyone else's fault, right? Why did the two academies have to hold a hunting competition selection event together with the Royal Academy? It was clear that there was an element of comparison going on, so if they insisted on competing together, they should have been mentally prepared for the current outcome.
As for whether they would have another match or determine the rankings based on the team's performance in hunting, it had nothing to do with Master Fenix.
By this time, they had already returned to the temporary resting village.
The villagers had been hired and prepared several tables of delicious dinner. Rin's table had a plate of tomato scrambled eggs and a plate of braised chicken wings, specially prepared by caring Sister Sword Saint for her brother.
Of course, the dog might be imagining how happy his brother looked while enjoying his favorite dishes, wagging its tail excitedly, without realizing that most of those dishes would end up in the Demon King's mouth.
So, that night, Sword Saint, filled with guilt, made up his mind to make it up to his brother.
