Chapter 203: The Road to the Mountains

“You’re right. That’s why I want to study in the Political Department of Hunter College. I hope to become a great politician in the future.”

Siegne said angrily as he suddenly lowered his head.

“If I’m able to gain supreme power in my hands, then I must eliminate all the rebels in the palace.”

When Mike heard Siegne’s words, he continued to question him.

“Why do you hate the royal palace so much?”

Siegne clenched his hands and continued to speak.

“Our country is now filled with people from the Fierce Beast Hunting Union. They have already taken control of the kingdom’s regime, but they have not overthrown it yet.”

Listening to Siegne’s description, Mike’s understanding of the Union deepened.

At the same time, Mike also gained a deeper understanding of the whole world.

Hunter College was located in an independent special space within the kingdom, so the Fierce Beast Hunter Union would not be able to find it.

Therefore, the people who were allowed to come here had to have some background already.

During the conversation, Mike found that they had already reached the halfway point of the Sealing Mountain.

Their speed started to slow down more and more.

At the same time, Mike also noticed that Seigne’s condition was getting weaker.

Due to his muggle attribute, he was more exhausted than the average adventurer.

Even so, he continued to struggle with his body, taking every step with difficulty.

Finally, several people who were walking in front of Mike stopped.

Some people even fell down due to exhaustion.

However, this little spell restriction was nothing to Mike.

Although Mike did not feel any burden, he did not leave these people to be the first to reach the top.

It was because he did not want to be in the limelight.

He wanted to blend in with these people, to be the most ordinary climber.

There were only eighty steps left to the top of the mountain.

Currently, there were fewer than twenty people left.

Walking at the front was a red-haired youth dressed in black.

Mike had already noticed him when he had first started going up the mountain.

He was the fastest among these people, and he did not stop the entire way.

Looking at him, his strength looked pretty good.

Following closely behind the red-haired youth was a blue-haired girl with twin ponytails.

The girl had a dignified appearance and did not say a word throughout the entire journey. She merely followed in the red-haired youth’s footsteps without stopping.

With Mike’s support, Seigne gradually approached the peak of the mountain as well.

As for the others, they followed closely behind the group, not daring to relax for even a moment.

At the moment, Seigne’s left hand was placed on Mike’s shoulder, as his speed started to slow down.

“Mike, it looks like what you said was true. You really didn’t have to expend any effort to climb up this… Sealing Mountain.”

Beside him, Siegne was sweating profusely. Even so, Mike continued to support him.

“We’re almost at the top of the mountain. You have to hold on!”

By now, Mike was almost half-carrying Siegne.

“Mike, don’t worry about me. With your strength, you have the ability to be the first to reach the top of the mountain. Why do you have to give up this honor for someone you just met?”

Mike looked at Seigne, who had started to become delirious. He did not say a word but continued to silently drag him along.

“There are still ten more steps. We’re almost there. You have to hold on!”

As soon as Mike finished speaking, the red-haired boy and the blue-haired twin-ponytailed girl had already reached the top.

Within a short time, three more people reached the top.

At the moment, only seven people, including Mike and Seigne, were still trying their best to reach the summit.

“The last five steps. You can already see the stone tablet, Seigne!”

Mike looked at Seigne. By now, Seigne had already lost the strength to speak.

Suddenly, Seigne’s feet went weak and he fell heavily onto the steps.

A not-too-deep and not-too-shallow wound appeared on his forehead from where he knocked it.

In a short while, blood flowed down the gash to his cheek.

Seigne struggled to get up.

He was only one step away from the top.

Mike was about to reach out to help him, but Seigne waved his hand away.

He signaled to Mike that he had to climb the last step on his own.

Mike took a step and easily climbed the last step.

As for Siegne, he gritted his teeth and took the last step with great difficulty.

“Did I… finally… successfully reach the top?”

With that, Siegne fell heavily to the ground.

Mike quickly went forward to help him up.

Suddenly, a clear voice spoke to Mike.

“I saw you drag this trash for the entire second half of the journey. You really were carrying a heavy load. Hahahaha!”

Mike turned his head around. The person who had spoken was the blue-haired girl with twin ponytails.

Mike merely glanced at her before turning his head back to pull Seigne up.

Seeing that Mike had ignored her, the blue-haired girl with twin ponytails did not continue to ask for trouble.

“Alright, Zelli, stop talking!”

The person who spoke was the red-haired youth.

“Jasco, I think you wanted to be first more than anyone else! Now that you’ve gotten what you wanted, stop pretending to be a good person!”

Jasco ignored Zelli and quietly waited for the last few people to reach the top.

Finally, the last person also successfully reached the top.

Right now, there were only twelve people left.

From the initial nearly hundred people to the current twelve people.

Such a strict elimination rate also made Mike more curious about Hunter College.

A person who looked like a teacher walked out from the ancient building behind the stone tablet.

That person addressed the remaining twelve people.

“Congratulations on passing the first round of the Hunter College’s test. I am the examiner for the second round of the test. You should have noticed this huge stone tablet when you were at the foot of the mountain!

“Don’t worry, everyone. The second round of the test is very simple.

“This round of the test is called the aptitude test. Those who pass the test can follow me to the Hunter College’s new student service office to complete the enrollment procedures.

“Now, everyone, please line up according to the order of when you reached the top and place your hands on the stone tablet.”

After a short wait, it was finally Mike’s turn.

At the moment, Mike was a little nervous. He reached out his right hand and placed it on the stone tablet.

The moment the palm of his hand touched the stone tablet.

An extremely strong golden light exploded onto the entire stone tablet.

The speed at which the words on the stone tablet distorted was much faster than before.

Only this time, the words did not seem to have any intention of stopping.

Finally, after a long wait, the words finally stopped moving.

“Mike, unable to detect… Unable to detect… Into the Long-Range Wizard Class!”
