翁公和媛媛在厨房里猛烈进出

Seeing him meet my gaze, I curiously asked.

"Why\'d you go along with it? I mean, I didn\'t tell I was going to get Han selected, did I?"

Placing his finger under his chin, Jin seemed to think for a moment before remarking.

"Well, I know you\'re somehow going to find a way to win, so I\'m not worried about Han... and a private chef for a week sounds amazing!"

Stopping for a moment mid-thought, Jin scanned my body for a moment before asking.

"And why... did you choose Han to go up and not me, Ren?"

"...b-because, i-it would be too easy for us to win if you went up!"

Shaking his head, Jin smirked before leaning back in his seat and watching Han.

Standing a distance from the first-year bleachers, Han placed his hands on the lecture right before him.

To his right and left were two students from the third and second years.

The second-year student was a female with golden-blonde hair that was tied up in ponytails and amber-brown eyes.

The third-year student was a boy with jet-black hair and matching jet-black eyes.

The upperclassman did not seem nervous at us compared to Han, who kept glancing at the palm of his hand.

Rubbing my hands together, I scooted over so that I was right next to Jin.

Placing my mouth to his ear, I quietly whispered.

"You search for the questions on your smartwatch. I type them and send them to Han. All right?"

After taking a moment to comprehend my words, Jin hesitated before whispering back.

"...how am I supposed to search things up if there\'s no internet, though?"

Having thought of this problem already, I sighed before pulling out my personal smartwatch, which was a different color from my school\'s.

I thought that there was a possibility that the djinns could have used some method to black communication between school devices, so I had brought an extra smartwatch just in case.

Handing it to Jin, I replied.

"Use this one."

Taking the smartwatch, Jin played around with it for a second before confirming that it indeed had an internet connection.

As Jin continued messing around with the smartwatch and becoming familiar with it, Seraphina realized that all the representatives had been chosen.

Staring at the three students, each in front of a lecture, in front of her, Seraphina announced.

"Please wait a moment."

At that moment, a teacher from each year stepped forward before pointing their wands at the first, second, and third-year bleachers.

A second later, a massive bubble appeared, encapsulating the bleachers and the few students sitting in the chairs right before it.

This happened with every other bleacher unit; finally, there were three big bubbles covering each bleacher in the building.

Seeing the students\' confusion, Seraphina continued announcing.

"From now on, you will be able to hear me... but I won\'t be able to hear you. This bubble blocks any noise from you guys reaching the representatives."

Staying silent for a moment, Seraphina stared around before pointing to a book that had appeared in her hands.

"I will start the questions now... so representatives, be ready!"

"After I ask a question, if you believe that you know the answer, tap the red button on your lecture."

"The first student to tap the red button AFTER I\'VE FINISHED ASKING THE QUESTION will answer the question and will receive a point if they get it correct."

"If this first student gets the wrong answer, another representative will have the opportunity to steal this question, and the student with the incorrect answer will lose a point."

Opening the book to some random page, Seraphina continued.

"Does everyone understand?"

"Yep."

"Yes."

"Indeed."

Hearing the three students confirm that they were ready and understood the instructions, Seraphina began.

"In what year was Celestial Academy established?"

Staring at Jin, I watched as he frantically typed.

A moment later, Jin whispered to me.

"SEVETEEN YEARS AGO."

Not skipping a single second, I changed the form of the physical corruption in Han\'s hand, so that it formed a seventee.

*BOOM*

Hearing the first buzzer go up, Principal Seraphina raised her hand before pointing at the source of the noise.

"Second-year representative, what is your answer?"

Without any hesitation, the blonde girl eagerly said.

"Seventeen years ago!"

After confirming that the answer was correct, Seraphina announced.

"Correct, that\'s one point for the second-years!"

Turning to Jin beside me, I said.

"We have to be faster."

Nodding his head, Jin stared at me with one of the most serious expressions I had ever seen on him before solemnly replying.

"I understand."

...were the two of us really taking this more seriously than the battle royale!?

I mean, we had just napped around for some time in the battle royale, and now, here we were, hyping ourselves up for some trivia game!

*BOOM*

"First-year representative... again, what is your answer?"

"The Celestial Academy\'s mascot is the bald eagle!"

"Correct... that\'s four straight points for the first-years. One more point... and he\'ll win it all. The second-years have one point... and the third-years are in last place with 0."

Although Han couldn\'t hear it, the first-year bleachers erupted in cheers at his correct answer.

"ONE MORE, YOU GOT THIS!"

"I\'M GLAD THE OTHER GUY GOT INJURED... BECAUSE WE GOT YOU INSTEAD!"

"HAVE MY KIDS!"

"...?"

Ignoring the last cheer... which came from a man\'s mouth, I sighed before turning to Jin.

Jin\'s palms were sweating, and his hands were trembling as his gaze was locked onto the smartwatch.

Nodding my head in approval, I said.

"One more, Jin.."

Perhaps too focused on the screen of the smartwatch, Jin stayed silent and ignored my question.

Patting him on the shoulder, I replied.

"Imagine it... just imagine the five-star food we\'ll get every week from the private chef."

"Can you smell it, Jin? SMELL IT! IT SMELLS LIKE VICTORY!"
