Chapter 219: Hunting in the Forest

"What's the level of that lively rabbit? Maybe around level 10 or something because of its agility. You are all lucky I'm here, so be grateful." Serena made a proud and proud pose. She managed to shoot the sneaky rabbit with an arrow, and it was their first prey.

"Marvelous, Miss Serena. Let me check the rabbit's level for a second." Zofia sent the compliment and then took out the universal identification tool from her Space Bag.

Cora and Nico also sent their compliments to their master. Still, Elysia only glanced at the rabbit and then at Serena. Their first Prey was obtained because Vanessa had an essential role in finding small animals around. Silly, Serena was so proud of it.

"I thought this animal was a hare, not a rabbit. An ordinary hare like the one in the meat market." Elysia commented as she put her hand on her chin.

"Huh? If I say it's a rabbit, then this animal is a rabbit." Serena frowned. While she was enjoying the rain of compliments, Elysia ruined her mood.

"O-oh, alright." Elysia just allowed that. It was free what name to say, nothing to lose.

"It's good if you understand. A lucky commoner like you is better off being an obedient girl." Serena didn't complicate things. Somehow, day by day, she found Elysia less and less annoying.

Not only occasionally greeted her, but sometimes Elysia also opened several conversations with her.

The secret was safe for one month, and Elysia did not act against her. She only needed eleven months left. Those resources that were hard to find might turn her talent into gold or platinum grade.

'Hehe... Enjoy your fun while you can. Now that it's been a month, I want to see what happens when the academy's higher-ups find out the truth. Hehe, haha!' Elena laughed like an evil character in a fictional story. She planned a revenge plan for Serena, and the stage for the event was set.

'Well, you're so excited that your laughter sounds more a devil than a guardian angel, Sister Elena.' Elysia had the urge to roll her eyes.

'Oops, I can't help that. I'm just excited. I can't wait for tomorrow. Serena already claimed the second month's platinum resource pack, right? I want to know the reaction of the academy and everyone at that time. It must be amazing!' Elena spread her arms as if to express such joy.

'Why wait after a month of our time at the academy for this? Everything we're going to do tomorrow is kind of cruel. What happens if Serena becomes traumatized?' Elysia still didn't understand that.

If Elena wanted to take revenge on Serena, wouldn't it be quicker? It was just a platinum card, which didn't mean much to her. So, why was the plan of revenge a bit cruel?

'My Lil Ely, we need to teach that rude girl a lesson for the common good. Also, you shouldn't do anything like that, okay? You were worried and afraid, but that's no reason for you to grant the wish of that nobody.' Elena advised her sweet little sister gently.

'Al-alright.'

'Promise?' Elena needed a guarantee sentence.

'Pinky promise.' Elysia just granted it. She learned a lot after Elena guided her to become someone with a better personality.

'Wonderful~ Ah, but you don't need to worry. No matter what, Serena only has herself to blame for what she did.' Elena reassured her sweet little sister before falling silent with a smile.

Well, what she prepared was limited to making Serena not harbor hatred or the like towards Elysia. Then, she would create a scenario for the academy and Serena.

At such a great time, she and Elysia would only watch from the side. They just needed to sit comfortably and eat popcorn while the others did their best to set things right.

After all, the academy had a flawed system to some extent. It was so much different from anything under Pope Alexander's control. No one knew what the Principal Emperor had in mind.

Their conversation took place in silence. At that point, Zofia was done with her examination and put their first prey into her Space Bag.

"Our first Prey is level four. So, currently, we have two points." Zofia reported it to her group.

"Not too bad, we've only explored thirty minutes into this forest. We have more than seven hours to hunt. I'm sure there will be a lot of prey if we get deeper into the forest. Let's go, follow the great me." After saying that, Serena continued her steps into the forest.

"Yes." Cora and Nico answered simultaneously.

They immediately followed their master after making sure their weapons and gear were present and ready to use at any time. No one knew when prey or danger would come.

Elysia and Zofia also followed closely behind. It was their designated group formation, 1-2-2. As for the cat, she was present in her master's arms.

Vanessa was only asked to help if their group did not find any signs of any animal nearby. Serena decided all of that.

Time had passed in their exploration and hunting, and it was already two hours since their first prey. At that time, if it was calculated manually, the points they had accumulated would have been around 47 points.

Not very much indeed. It was because Elysia and Vanessa were just acting like normal without using their extraordinary abilities. Elysia used her advanced perception occasionally only in case, and Vanessa helped the hunt.

Perhaps, if there weren't the two of them, the group wouldn't have gotten that many points yet.

"It's been over two hours since our exploration of the forest. Shall we take a break and have lunch?" Elysia suggested as their group continued on their path.

"Lunch? At a place like this? I can't possibly eat lunch at a place like this. It's only been two hours. We'll continue until over a hundred points have been collected. Finish all of this quickly. I want to come back soon." Serena simply refused the incoming suggestion.

"But, I guess we need more energy and stamina to further into the forest. Cora, Nico, and Zofia are a bit exhausted from the level 20 beast earlier." Elysia emphasized her suggestions on causes.

"Hmph! Then eat and drink quickly. You each bring your lunch, right?" Serena looked at the other girl and relented a little. She thought that made sense, and she needed four healthy subordinates.

Hearing that, Cora and Nico sat on a log and ate their lunch. It wasn't time for lunch yet, but the hunting had worn them down. Zofia sat beside Elysia on a flat rock to eat and drink too. She needed the extra energy to swing her sword.

At that moment, Elysia brought out a combo pack pizza box. A special tiered package containing two pizzas and several other delicacies.

Zofia was dumbfounded when she saw Elysia's luxurious lunch. She had heard of Lavely Pizza, and it was a business owned by the girl next to her, right? She had never tried the famous pizza yet, but immediately she wanted to taste it.

"Want it? Please take it, don't hesitate." Elysia offered it with hospitality.

"Then, I will not hesitate. Thank you." Zofia shamelessly took one slice of pizza and devoured it right away. Well, it was delicious, and she took another one. She didn't forget to express what her tongue felt.

Vanessa didn't want to be outdone by that. She asked for a slice of pizza to her master beside the nuggets she was chewing.

Cora and Nico just watched it silently. But, somehow, the pizza seemed to tempt them to come and eat it. Even Serena, who was drinking mineral water, got the same boost. So, was it pizza that was being talked about lately?

"Please take this. Have a taste, this is a barbeque pizza from our Lavely Pizza." Elysia handed over a box of whole pizzas to Cora and Nico. She knew they wanted it, wanted to taste it.

Nico took it unconsciously and put the box on her lap. However, she realized it was impolite. The previous pizza left her in a daze. The gratitude was necessary. "Thank you for this pizza, Miss Elysia."

"Ahh, don't hesitate. Please taste it." Elysia wagged her hand with a smile.

Serena's servants looked at each other, then Nico opened the box. The tantalizing brown pizza was there as if to provoke their appetite to eat the flatbread with delicious toppings.

Without further ado, they tasted one slice of the warm pizza. Well, Elysia heated up the pizza like it was freshly cooked, with her magic.

Cora and Nico put their master aside because it was already clear that their master didn't want to eat lunch at a place like this. Serena used to eat proper food in decent places that were definitely not in the forest.

"..." Serena was silent. She was ignored even though she also wanted to try it.

Unfortunately, she just snorted and turned her attention to look around. It was just pizza. She could buy dozens of them later.

This test was so easy, Serena was confident that the group she led could collect more than 100 points before noon. She was halfway there and still more than two hours before noon.

When she chewed her chocolate while waiting. She saw a glimpse of a shadow that seemed to be a rather large wild boar. The wild boar was walking casually as if the prey didn't know there were hunters in the vicinity.

"Hey, postpone your lunch. There's a wild boar about 200 meters over there. Help me surround the prey, I'll shoot, and you'll be there if I miss the target." Serena gave her orders in a soft whisper, worried that the wild boar would run away.
