The host beast said, "You were rewarded 8,000 scores by one of your teammates when you were in deep sleep for 2 to 3 days. And the person who gave you this many points was Ranker 1."
Yuzui was shocked by this but avoided it and left the stage and came on her Team row.
The host beast said, "And finally, the first is... Um I am actually not shocked by who he is and you all also might know. He is Ranker 1! He has said to tell first penalty scores so his penalty scores are... -20,000 scores for disqualifying half of his team!"
Everyone was shocked by the penalty scores and came on thinking that if he has lost this much of scores, how can he be first.
The host beast continued, "Due to this many penalty scores, my lord gets 0 bonus scores and no rewards. But don't judge a book by its cover. When you will get to know how many zombies he killed, you will definitely be shocked."
Everyone's heartbeat was high to know about the Ranker 1 and the host beast continued,
"Ranker 1, my lord has killed... 100,000 normal zombies and 100,000 beast zombies!"
Everyone was shocked by knowing the number.
The host beast continued, "Which means his total scores by just hunting zombies are 2,000,000 but by subtracting penalty the total scores are 1,980,000! Congratulations! He actually used his knowledge, I guess he knew that the all the zombies are multiple which means if you killed one zombie, in 5 minutes 2 zombies will be summoned and will go on that was the reason that in the location of Team E till the last day, there were already too many zombies, anyways, please my lord come and take your trophy."
And suddenly a System notification came in the host beast's System,
[ Private Notification: Host beast take my trophy on behalf of me and keep it for a while in yourself. I am depending on your to take care of my trophy. ]
The host beast came on the stage and showed the notification to other pet beasts and took the trophy.
"Well you all might be thinking why I am here holding the trophy, my lord has said to me take and keep the trophy on behalf of him. Well of course my lord never wants to get the spotlight." Said the host beast and kept the trophy in a safe place.
Team E members were looking at Ichiro and Ichiro was feeling uncomfortable and loudly said, "Why are you all staring at me? Am I a mons... Well I am but why are you looking at me continuously?"
The host beast got one more System notification and said, "Um... I guess I am going to expose you. Listen guys, there is something I want to say that is Ranker 1 has applied a restriction on every survivor that no one can discuss to find who he/she is. And about something about my lord that I say he is male because in his previous life, he was a man in Atlas. And a new announcement is here!"
Still everyone was staring at Ichiro, he said, "What's your problem with me? Why are you all staring at me for minutes? Haven't you seen someone this much ugly guy and the weakest? Now I swear I will... Um... I can't do anything but stop staring at me."
Yuzui said, "We guess... You are--"
And suddenly the man who said to clap for Team E snapped his fingers and the environment suddenly changed by which they can remember what was happening but now no one can think about it properly and can't express it as well plus they were not able to remember on whom they were suspecting as Ranker 1.
Ichiro looked at the man and runned towards him and hugged him and happily started crying.
Ichiro said, "Thank you... Thank you Nobela." The man's name is Nobela.
Team D members didn't understand what they were doing.
Nobela said, "Oh my lord, please don't say thank you... You also gave me your... Um, anyways, please don't cry and don't hesitate to ask for any help, now we are together again, but my name here is Naki, but you can just call me Nobela or anything."
Ichiro thanked him and everybody was able to remember that they were talking about Ranker 1 but couldn't express it anymore and soon forgot about it.
Ichiro and Nobela started staring at the host beast and now he was afraid of them.
But Nobela whispered in Ichiro's ears saying, "But... I made a mistake, I can't use my power on your Captain Yuzui. I am really sorry for it."
And Ichiro replied, "No, don't worry about her, I was just going to tell her."
Yuzui was still staring at Ichiro and Ichiro came in his team row.
The host beast said, "Ok the announcement is that now 10 have been disqualified and 50 are left. Now our Academics will be going to start for your improvement in physical and mental strength. The second test will start after you have entered the class, Class A, Class B and Class C. The Class A, B and C are ranked and you will be in the classes based on ranks, only the top 5 Survivors of the first test can choose on their own wish in which class they want. Class A and B will only have 15 Survivors each and Class C will have 20 Survivors. So, yes, rankings are now being changed by the impact of the test. Soon you will get ranks and after a few days the Academics will start."
Soon the ranks came and this time Akio, Suz and Yu were in Class B whereas Ichiro was in Class C and Yuzui chose to be with Ichiro so in Class C.
Nobela asked Ichiro from which Class is he and he also chooses Class C and he was with the Captain of Team D, Yuki.
Akio was crying that he will not be with Ichiro but Ichiro said to him, "This will be just academics and we will be in contact, don't worry about it."
