While Gardner was interrogating Drago, Kiernan went to sit on his wooden log and saw few flashes of light.
A few of the students took a picture of him and started sending it across the school pages. The news about his victory over Drago already started to make rounds on the internet.
"How did you improve your time by twenty minutes?" Julian sat next to him and asked. "I know I can improve by another ten minutes, but I have no idea where I am losing most of my time."
"There are few ways of saving time, it seems." Kiernan said. "Like, you can completely avoid fighting the stone golems, and then at the third challenge, don't let the chains grab you."
"Really?" Julian looked surprised.
"That's not exactly true."
A voice came from behind them.
They turned around and saw the cold-faced student return.
"Didn't you leave?" Kiernan asked. "Why return so soon?"
