Chapter 577 The Day Has Come
What if they were targeted by the Underworld Princes, higher Generals or all those who headed back to the underworld to join the battle down there?
Even if it\'s just 1 day or 8 months or even 5 years off their lives, so what? That was still theirs!! (:*∆*:)
9 days.
It\'s been 9 days since their eyes were finally opened to the truth. And they had to say that they were still not holding up fine. …
"Why does it seem like a year since the competitions began?" "Yeah. I\'m beat up, tired, and in desperate need of sleep. Except… I can\'t sleep alone, at least not now." A cute girl spoke wryly, while wiping her face with her white towel. She was a little ashamed to say that she had shamelessly posted herself in Khalea\'s bed, alongside another girl, who also joined in mid-May. Before, they used to complain that their bunk beds were tiny for 1 person to sleep on. But who would have thought that 3 people could actually sleep very comfortably on it these past few days with no discomfort? Khalea flashed cold water on her face, while listening to the girls beside her. Well, she too had to admit that she found solace in knowing she was stepping with 2 others on her bed. "Today is the 9th day… time to depart." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Of course, she meant to say that today is the 9th day, and they will soon know whether they passed or not. However, the walls and everything around them might be watching, so they must keep their mouths shut at all times. Soon, the girls left with their damp towels around their necks. They separated briefly, with Khalea heading for her father\'s quarters. "At ease." She might be young, but she had a high rank within the army. What\'s more, her father\'s men recognized her, so they let her in without notice. .
"Dad!" Kletus having his late breakfast, also in a daze. It seems he didn\'t hear it notice her come in. Breakfast should be a happy meal. However, he was chewing and forcing everything down as if it was shit. He really didn\'t have the appetite to eat, but knew that he must eat because his body needs fuel to sustain itself. "Dad, I know… it\'s just too tough to pull through, but… but if you don\'t strengthen your body, you\'ll be letting our Country\'s enemies win." "Impossible!" Kletus blurted out, staring at Khalea with heated eyes. Although he feared the \'enemy,\' he would rather die than see them win. So, with that conviction in mind, he gobbled his food down like an ogre, slamming his cutlery down hard. Khalea chuckled, slowly taking a seat opposite Kletus. Now, both of them had similar thoughts in mind, without uttering a single word to each other. –The Test. How would they know if they passed or not? They both crossed their arms in thought, thinking and speaking on the matter in a coded manner. But what they didn\'t expect was that the news of their exam status was closer than they thought. 11 AM on the dot. What was that? The duo jumped from their seats when hearing a light tapping noise coming from Kletus\'s bedroom. And before they could react, an unimaginable scene unfolded before their eyes that left their eyes battling in disbelief. This… This… This…
