"..."
Misaki and Mikoto didn't know what to say when they saw this dark figure suddenly appear and take first place...
They shared looks and saw the shock in each other's eyes...
But the amazement quickly passed and was replaced by the blonde's frown and the grinding teeth of the electric girl...
"Congratulations to our winner of this round... Miss Shirai Kuroko!"
That's right, the figure that blinked and crossed the finish line was this Yuri girl...
"I did it!"
Still black as coal, Kuroko raised both hands in victory. The 'Sword' at the beginning couldn't stop her. How many times has Mikoto's love whip tested her? Kuroko didn't know, but thanks to that, she had a high resistance to electricity, so she quickly recovered and teleported again...
Yuki didn't know what to say with this unexpected result. He scratched his head and thought about how to get rid of this Yuri girl. After all, he didn't want to go out with this girl who is a pain in the ass...
"It was a great race, and now the results!"
[1. Misaki Shokuhou, 27 points]
[2. Mikoto Misaka, 27 points]
[3. Hokaze Junko, 26 points]
[4. Ayu Mitsuari, 24 points]
[5. Shirai Kuroko, 22 points]
This time, Kuroko managed to jump in the rankings, placing fifth. While Mikoto and Misaki maintained the same score, this time the black knight Ayu Mitsuari had to step down from the throne. After all, this was an obstacle race, and the best Espers in terms of speed were under Misaki's control. Mikoto, on the other hand, was immune to mental control, so she had a tough time...
There was no need to eliminate contestants this time. The 'Swords' were more than enough for only 22 Ojou-samas to finish the race and move on to the next round...
"What do you think of this result, Joker-sama?"
"They were all wonderful. I'm excited for the next round ~"
Of course, he was excited, but also a little surprised, as the number of Ojou-samas who made it through was higher than expected...
As expected from the world of Toaru where the law of the Multiverse reigns, and also where the mother of all guides her children in search of truth, even the smallest can fight against a giant using 'Destiny'...
After all, almost all the Ojou-samas are Epic or Legend level. It's impossible for them to surpass a High Tectonic like Yuki, even in just an obstacle race. However, they did it, which has put Yuki on high alert...
Don't underestimate the inhabitants of the world of Toaru, especially the nun and the spiky-haired boy beside him. Destiny is very strong in those two, and they enjoy ridiculous luck...
After all, can Touma really punch a magician using just his fist? Defeat him and knock him out?
You must be kidding...
The will of the world of Toaru has read quite a few tales and inhaled unknown substances to create such an anomaly.
And Yuki wanted a taste of what the world's will was smoking...
While Yuki was thinking about this, 20 minutes passed, enough for these Ojou-samas to rest and start the next round...
"Uhhh Onee-sama..."
Touching her cheeks swollen like a tomato, tears welled up in Kuroko's eyes. Mikoto had been torturing her for these 20 minutes for taking first place, so she couldn't escape her clutches until Satori announced the start of the next round...
<
The roulette spun as the content of the next round appeared, making the Ojou-samas turn pale...
"As a refined lady of high society, you must always remain calm no matter the situation. This is very important."
The valor test is very common in Japan, so much so that it has almost become a tradition to bloom romance. However, this time there was no possibility for romance. This was a competition, and at this moment, as if a switch were activated inside Yuki, his smile turned dark and cruel. He had been playing a lot with Misaki and the headache that Mikoto and Misaki had given him these days, it was time for these two girls to suffer a bit and their backsides to pay the consequences of messing with a carnivore.
He snapped his fingers, and the sky changed from day to night in seconds. Likewise, in front of the Ojou-samas, a very old, dilapidated mansion with a cross very similar to a convent appeared. At the same time, a thick fog began to descend, making long-distance visibility difficult. However, from the mansion, a dark and terrifying aura began to emerge...
"Hey... are you kidding me?"
Kongou murmured, taking a step back, her gaze trembling.
"I... I'm not going in there."
"Uchiha-san, how far do you plan to take this?!"
Even Mikoto swallowed nervously, seeing the Convent. This was beyond expectations. It was like seeing those haunted mansions in movies...
"This is quite a surprise. Little Yuki isn't joking, but..."
Fear had seized the contestants' hearts. Misaki wasn't an option, but she pressed the remote control button and returned to her usual smile...
"You have to do more than that if you want me to give up~✨...."
Everyone's hair stood on end, even the audience swallowed nervously. After all, there was something very strange about that convent. Likewise, the sound of the bells only made the fear even more intense in people...
Even Index, who generally considers a Convent her 'home,' didn't want to look away at this moment. Something very bad awaited inside that 'Convent'....
Stiyl also felt the bad omen, turning his gaze directly to the Clown beside him...
"This... I'll explain the rules to you."
Satori was also affected a little by the unusual aura of this Convent, so she forced herself to smile and tell the story of this Convent...
<<
A woman who, in the 16th century, fell in love with an ambitious man of scarce resources whom she wished to marry. Her brothers, upon realizing this, prevented the marriage by offering a large sum of money to that man with the last name Arrutia to stay away.
The woman's pain was so great that her brothers, in an effort to lighten her sadness, decided to admit her as a nun in the Convent of the Conception... however, the pain never ceased, and one day she decided to end her suffering by hanging herself from a peach tree located in the convent's courtyard, where, according to legend, with the aim of taking revenge on her 'Beloved' and Family, this woman had made a Pact with a certain Demon, offering her life in exchange.
Her body was buried in the religious enclosure's cemetery, and a few months later, the targets of her vengeance also perished.
It seemed that everything had ended, but it seems that her suffering would never end, as after her death, multiple tragedies have occurred in the Convent...
>>
It seemed like a very cliché background story, but when seeing such an abandoned Convent, the listeners changed their expression.
Especially the Ojou-samas upon hearing the rules...
Since this was an uncommon challenge, there were two ways to win this round...
The first is to survive at least an hour inside this mansion, and the other is to defeat the Demon tormenting the souls....
Those who manage to survive an hour inside this Convent automatically get 15 points, while those who complete the round would have a value of 30 points...
Contestants can also choose not to enter, but they will be automatically disqualified. Likewise, all those Ojou-samas who want to enter will be given a collar with a Cross, which they will have to crush for those who give up and can no longer stand being inside.
In other words, an emergency exit...
Likewise, those who use it and have not yet reached 60 minutes will be disqualified...
This was a perfect opportunity to surpass those in the Ranking. The 30 points were quite tempting and would keep them ahead in the contest. Unfortunately, none of the Ojou-samas thought this, no woman in her right mind would enter a haunted Convent.
Some even shook their heads. They didn't want to enter. If this Convent was already this terrifying on the outside, they didn't want to imagine the interior, especially with that terrifying background story...
So, a very small number of the Ojou-samas chose to withdraw, fearing that their little hearts would not be able to bear so much fear.
