Chapter 219: Ranking

Grand Hall Assembly

As the second game reached its last hour, it was apparent some groups ended their battle royal earlier than others. However, apart from group 2, which had ended early due to the famous dragon half-blood prodigy Zach, the remaining groups ended around the same time period.

Like one could generally see, the last hour of the game was the climax. This fact was further supported by Magus Serena, who was hosting the game with her charming personality. As the countdown reached its last hour, her enthusiasm and fervor became even more prominent.

Inside the screens floating above the arena, all the remaining groups could be seen fighting fiercely. However, one of the screens showing the fight during the last few minutes of the game successfully made the audience gasp and hold their breath.

Said screen showed the acolytes of group 7. The audience's attention was attracted by the sudden appearance of the grey beast. More and more people watched the group 7's screen, when the beast began killing the elite acolytes left and right. No matter what the acolytes tried to do, only one thing happened to all of them: death.

The audience clamored boisterously, as they watched the massacre happening inside the game. Their eyes couldn't stop watching the brutality, as if someone had put a spell on them. Group 7 caught most of the attention until the game finally ended, leaving the audience in the arena screaming in excitement.

Tens of thousands of audience watched how Emery finished the game in such a manner. Even the beautiful blonde mage herself, who mostly only gave harsh comments on the acolytes, found the scene to her liking, proving how exceptional his feat was.

As the time hit zero, Emery and the other acolytes were teleported out of the virtual arena. It didn't matter if they were still fighting or busy hiding, all of them returned together to the arena when the game announced its end.

When he appeared in the middle of the arena together with the other acolytes, Emery obviously returned back to his normal appearance, as the game itself was virtual.

[Your total points are 41000]

[Congratulations! You are ranked first place]

The notification that he got first place in his group came out, not only in his mind, but also on the screen. Hence, Emery was surprised to see his face on one of the screens, with his accomplishment shown in big golden words.

[First place, class 77, Emery Ambrose]

When he saw his name and the 'first place' prefix before it, Emery rubbed his eyes again, as he couldn't believe what he saw at the moment. 

The last thing he remembered was trying to break through the ice barrier in front of him. And when he finally regained consciousness, the game had ended and he suddenly won first place?

Emery was worried, no, he was perturbed. The same thing happened to him when he fought the Knight of Divine Order. 

With his bloodline evolution, he was finally able to trigger the skill, so he thought he could finally control it. Unfortunately, he still couldn't. Now, he's quite regretful with what he did.

Before his deep contemplation could end, Emery realized the people who were next to him, especially those who were already here before the game ended, seemed to keep a distance from him. Looking around, Emery noticed all of them were looking at him with sweats on their faces.

"Ooo… What did I do?"

As if the sky answered his inquiry, Emery saw his friends walking towards him. As they got nearer, Emery noticed something strange about them. 

Thrax was squinting his eyes and seemed to be angry, but tried to hold it in, Julian was smiling so widely Emery thought he was on drugs, Klea showed a relieved expression making him wonder what she was thinking and Chumo was smiling helplessly and looking at the three. 

They were all weird, especially Thrax. It was so unlike him to try to hold something. After all, he was the recognized reckless, crude and straightforward bull of the team.

"Don't worry about it, Emery!" Julian cheerfully said, earning him a confused gaze from Emery. "You indeed are the best! You avenged my defeat by killing that barbarian." Julian continued chuckling.

"I did what?"

"Shitty roman! You are the one who asked me to kill you! How could you... I did you a favor!" Thrax said rapidly, Emery could clearly sense the emotion behind it.

"I don't remember such thing!" Julian shamelessly replied, waving his hand.

Meanwhile, Emery only stared at the two bickering. One could swear there was a big question mark above his head. Seeing Emery was totally clueless, Chumo approached Emery and whispered, "You killed Thrax."

Upon hearing that, Emery was stunned. Unfortunately, Chumo was still not finished, "You almost killed Klea too."

Emery was confused as he didn't remember any of those. He could only stare towards Klea and said, "I am sorry, Klea. I…"

Before Emery could say anything, a white-haired pale-skinned girl cut him off, "What are you sorry for? You did great, moron!" Silva said, while walking closer to the group. "Just make sure you come to Bloodline Institute to learn how to control those skills you have. Anyway, congratulations for winning first place."

Thanks to Silva's last words, the cat and mouse quickly stopped their bickering and said, "Oh yeah! Congrats Emery!" Emery smiled at their words, he could also see Klea smile and Chumo patting his shoulder.

"What about you all? Did you guys make it to the top 50?"

The cherry atmosphere immediately turned quiet when the question was asked. Before Emery could ask them again, Magus Serena called upon the crowd to stand.

"Now that all ten groups have arrived, let's give them all a huge applause! Congratulations for the 500 best acolytes from the game!"

Right after that, the symbol on Emery's hand started to shine and multiple notifications rapidly appeared.

Serena was suddenly screaming in excitement checking on the final result.  "Surprise Surprise! Finally, after 10 years, today we have a regular acolyte group to win a game! Such an amazing feat!"

[Elite: 23 acolytes : 674.000]

[Congratulations! All 320 participating regular class acolytes of group 7 received 10.000 bonus contribution points]

With all group 7 acolytes receiving them, that's 3,200,000 contribution points in total. Such a huge reward for winning the game.

With that last reward, Emery received a total of 81,000 contribution points. From the last Magus Game, Emery obtained 9,000 contribution points. This time, he nearly earned ten times that amount!

But Emery's happiness immediately dampened when his eye scanned the list of names. He realized that only his name and Klea's were in the list. This meant, not only Julian, but Chumo and Thrax didn't make it the top 50 too.

"Fuck! I am only 1,000 point short!" Thrax cursed when he saw the points the rank 50 acolyte had.

Thrax, Chumo and Julian. Three of his friends didn't make it to the list, while he became the number one. This really gave Emery such a sour taste in his mouth.
