[Raven's POV]
"Hm, just as I expected..."
I mumbled as I looked at the huge transparent hologram window on the front wall of the room.

The hologram is telling what group is fighting who.
[CLASS A-1 & B-1] both have 50 students, so it's common sense that the section will be put against each other.
Because either class will just crush the other section, making the test less meaningful.
Also, both class was split into 2 group, [SET 1] and [SET 2], consisting of 25 students in each section per set.
And as what I already predicted, I'm in the same set with Sean and his goons.
"Wow, they even seperated me and Blake."
I mumbled as I can see how unfair the match was rigged.
I glanced at Sir Kendy, he was looking at me.
And when our gazes met, he let out a sigh and shook his head.
'I can't do anything about that, sorry.'
And I heard Sir Kendy's voice inside my head.
Normally I would freak out because of it, but I've already been hearing stupid voices in my head ever since I came in this world.
[You're stupid not me.]
Sariel said, not that I mind him.
Looking at Sir Kendy, I shrugged my shoulders and casually just looked back at the hologram displayed.
"It's what I wanted anyway."
I muttered.
'Anyway, I'm in the 1st set so our match will happen soon.'
I thought as I prepared myself for the show I'm gonna let the world see.
'I can bring anything inside the portal that I own and use them in the test...'
A smile crept up on my face as I rethink my plan to see any loophole and fix them before executing it.
Though, as expected of myself, I see none!
Then, I looked at Sean.
He's with Barry and Ervin, and they're looking at my direction too.
'You're dead.'
Barry mouthed to me as Sean is slyly smiling in my direction.
So I sent them a double middle finger.
'You guys even need to rig the match and come at me in group to take revenge, don't act proud little pussies.'
I mouthed back then I adverted my eyes from them without seeing their responses.
[Mad, Sean is glaring daggers at you while Barry is beet red from embarrassment.]
Though, Sariel told me their reactions anyway.
[Ervin is pretty calm as if he knows your words were right.]
Sariel added, I shrugged before casually speaking.
"My words are always right."
I said.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
"Raven!"
It was then, I heard someone call me.
Looking who it was, it was fucking Blake.
And accompanying him were Alec, Adelle, and Aoi.
"What do you want?"
I asked Blake as soon as he reached in front of me.
"Will you be okay?"
Blake then asked me back with a worried voice and expression.
Looking at the other 3 that came with him, they're all looking at me with the similar expression on their faces.
"I'm gonna be fine."
So I casually answered to relief their worries.
"I'll always be fine."
And I declared.
"Set 1, get ready to enter the portal!"
It was then, Luke exclaimed.
Briefly glancing at him, I looked back at Blake and the others.
"I'll be going first."
I said and immediately started to walk toward the portal.
"Good luck!"
"Beat their asses!"
I heard Blake and Adelle's voices behind my back cheering for me.
Eyes gathered toward me at their loud cheerings, but I don't dislike being supported so I just casually waved my hand as a response.
...
"The test is capture the flag, everybody here must've already know what that is, if you don't, then fucking go out of the world and learn some things."
Kendy declared in a lazy manner as all of the participants of the set 1 are ready to go in the portal any time.
"There's not much restriction in the test, because in real battle, there's no rules."
Kendy added with a more serious tone.
"Without further ado, enter and start the test, everything that will happen inside will be projected in that hologram and the others will spectate your performances."
Kendy explained as he pointed the huge hologram in the wall where the set and team was announced just now.
"Then they can give you advices after the test in things you could have done better."
Kendy added, then he looked at Raven and Sean with a frown.
"Raven is the leader of [CLASS A-1], all of the set 1 members voted him to be."
"The same for you Sean..."
Kendy then pointed out.
Raven was frowning really hard at that news, he looked at the [CLASS A-1] students that are participating set 1 like they were weirdos.
Sean on the other hand was satisfied and weakly nodding his head with a smile.
"These guys are lunatics, picking me as their leader..."
Raven weakly mumbled.
Then after a while, they all entered the portal.
***
[Sean's POV]
"Phew, it wasn't as bad as I thought..."
I muttered in a weak voice after entering the portal.
We just literally entered and most of our members are having some headaches as like me, it's their 1st time entering a dungeon, especially it's a portal type one.
'Luckily, my father built me a training room that has the same sensation when entering a dungeon so it didn't affected me much.'
I thought with a satisfied smile on my face.
Then facing at Ervin beside me who is totally doing just fine, a frown appeared on my face.
'Well, he has some experience entering dungeons so it's understandable...'
Ervin is my "childhood friend" as our parents are business partners, though, Ervin's parents died inside a dungeon.
So my father adopted him as he's talented.
And while I'm training in an advanced training facilities and consuming a lot of herbs, Ervin was being sent to dungeons or monster or beast spawns.
That's how he got stronger.
'Though, I'm still a rank a higher than him.'
I sneered inwardly.
'Having money is the best...'
But just as I thought of that, my facial expression crumbled.
It's because I remembered all of my valuable items, artifacts, herbs, and other else being trapped inside a gigantic ice at the moment.
'Some of them might have been damaged...'
I thought as I reminded myself to sue Ruby after this test.
Then a sly smile appeared on my face.
'And maybe I can use this incident to corner Ruby...'
I inwardly stated.
"Sean, are you okay?"
Then, Ervin asked me with a monotone voice.
I shrugged my shoulders at him before casually speaking.
"I'm fine."
After that, I saw Barry walking toward us.
Barry is nothing special, I'm just keeping him close because he's obedient and his family is useful.
'He's also good at kissing one's ass.'
Though, I don't trust Barry fully so I am keeping a USB that contains all the dirty things he committed so in case he started baring his fangs at me.
"What should we do now Leader?"
Barry asked me as soon as he got in front of me.
Then with a mischievous smile...
"Let's immediately go and attack Raven's team."
I confidently declared to everyone who is slowly getting used to the mana around.
'Raven's team is full of weaklings or non combats, so he would probably camp in his base and play defensive.'
I concluded as I nodded my head, praising my genius self.
'I can finally get my revenge...'
I thought.
"You, you, you, you, and you."
Then I pointed at 5 students who are also members of the group I founded.
"Guard the place just in case."
"Yes sir!"
I commanded them and they answered positively immediately.
I'm cautious so I wouldn't leave the base unguarded.
"Let's g–"
"Leader!"
Just as I was about to start our march to find Raven's base and attack it.
I was cut off by a boy who called out to me.
"What the fuck is it?"
I asked him with a frown.
He's trembling and his face shows disbelief.
Then after hearing my words, he started sweating and immediately pointed up in the air.
"Someone's up there!"
He exclaimed.
'What bullshit...'
I thought as I turned my head where the boy was pointing, not just me but every member of my group did.
"!"
Gasp!
And all of us had our eyes widened and some even gasped in surprise when we really saw a figure up in the air.
"What the..."
I weakly mumbled.
In the air, a person with a pair of beautiful majestic black wings is flying and looking down on us with a calm expression.
When our eyes me, he casually waved his hand.
"Sup."
And he greeted.
"Kugh.."
I clenched my hands into fists and gnashed my teeth together after hearing his carefree voice.
"Raven Obadiah..."
Then, I muttered the name of the person in the air.
