The Author's POV
Chapter 244
'”Bang!
The blaring sound of a table being pounded resounded across the room. Following this, an enraged roar echoed across the room.
"This is bullshit!"
Perry stood up.
"I shouldn't be responsible for our school's lackluster performances!"
"That's not the point"
Sitting next to Perry, Ebonie shouted back. Her voice contained all of the frustration she held back for the past week.
"I've repeatedly warned you about this at the beginning of the week yet none of you listened to me!"
Turning around, Ebonie pointed at the TV screen where the rankings were shown and once again raised her voice.
"Now, look! We're only fifty points ahead of Theodora academy who should've been two hundred points behind according to the initial forecast. Whose fault is it other than yours for this?"
ãRankingsã - ãPointsã
Lock Academy - 11,089
Theodora Academy - 11,039
Lutwik Academy - 10,785
Vellon Academy - 10,467
SilverWing Academy - 9,803
Kukz Academy - 9,732
DeathSigil Academy – 9,311
Dusk of Dawn Academy - 8,953
Everlight Academy -8,824

"What the fuc'”"
"Rather than voicing out your complaints, let's talk about the possible solutions to this problem."
Cutting Perry off before he could swear, was Mark. Compared to the first meeting, his face looked a lot more serious. He was no longer treating this as a joke.
He knew just how serious their current predicament was.
"...Right"
Finally, calming down a bit, Ebonie stood up. Biting her lower lip, she looked at everyone that had gathered in the room.
"From what I've gathered, in order for us to win, all we need is four first-years to win their respective games, followed by two by the second years."
Pausing, Ebonie took out a tablet. Tapping on the screen on the tablet, the TV screen behind her changed.
"If they somehow can achieve this, we should be able to widen the gap with Theodora Academy. If we can't achieve that then we have no choice but to..."
Ebonie paused.
"No choice but to...?"
Perry asked as he too seemed to have also calmed down from the previous outburst.
"Win one of the battle royale games..."
"..."
At her words, the room instantly became quiet.
If there was one game that no one could guarantee first place spot, it would be the battle royale game.
The reason was simple.
There was no rule that stated that the other academies couldn't form alliances with one another.
As a result of this rule, every year the Lock and the other larger academies would end up fighting at a numerical disadvantage. Making it much harder for them to win first place.
It was also because of this that the points awarded to the academies upon winning the game were much higher than singular games.
If two academies were neck and neck with each other in terms of points, they'd need to be able to win the battle royale in order to widen the gap.
"That shouldn't be a problem."
The first to speak up was Perry. A faint smile appeared on his lips.
"Since we're already guaranteed first place in our battle royale, we don't really have to worry too much about it."
"That's easier said than done..."
Ebonie replied as she put her tablet down. From the way that she didn't deny Perry's statement, it seemed as though she agreed with him about the fact that the third year will win their battle royale.
