The battles finally ca to an end, and that battle between Jonathan and Artorias ended being… Much longer than I ever could have imagined. And it pushed Jonathan quite a lot. That kid was also amazing! He had so many strange powers it made almost a bit jealous.
The battle seed quite important to the character Jonathan was replacing as well, which made things a bit more complicated for him. I believe things ended fine enough though, and Jonathan showed off a lot more, so I'm happy.
And that brat of Artorias, well, he learned his lesson and beca nicer, and Jonathan befriended him, although I'm sure it's all just to make him a new apprentice or sothing. He always had a lot of them.
Once Jonathan returned to us with the brat at his side, I quickly greeted him with a big hug.
"Well done!" I hugged him tightly. "You really won, well done! I actually never doubted you dear."
"Hahaha, well, we're finally done at long last, this day has sure been really long, but so much has happened," said Jonathan.
"It sure has…" nodded Lucifer behind . "I kind of want to kick back and relax, but I bet that's not completely possible, hm?"
We're on the trial at the end of the day, and based on the ongoing storyline, sothing might happen at any ti, sothing that could create even more chaos.
But for now, there's nothing wrong with celebrating a tiny little bit!
"Uh, nice to et you…" Artorias greeted . "You must be the person that Jonathan swore he would win, right? I could have never thought it would be soone like you, Maria was your na right? You're also very popular…"
"Ah, you're the brat…" I said, clicking my tongue.
"B-Brat…?!" he gasped, feeling a bit attacked by my words. "Aren't we the sa age?!"
"Uh, sure," I nodded. "Anyways, I hope you've already overco whatever stupidity was taking over your head, alright? And you better not let those worms eat your brain again. Because if you get funny again I'm going to slap you down."
"U-uhh…! Sure…" muttered Artorias. "I guess I understand now, why you feared so much losing, Jonathan…"
"A-Ah? Hahaha! It's not like that…" Jonathan laughed a bit nervously.
What are they implying?
…
Well, whatever, the day's over.
"And with this match, this year's Student Battles have finally ended!" said Professor Hendrick. "You've already been given your grades, which had been sent to your student's personal account. There you will be able to check what grade you got and more. Also, depending on your performance, even your Rank might have increased! Rember! Tomorrow there'll be more tests, so be prepared! This week's going to be intense, I know! You can go back ho now."
And with that, we could finally go ho!
"Alright, let's get going, I'm exhausted." I sighed in relief.
"Exhausted? But your fight ended so quickly…" said Eraldine at my side. "I'm sure you're the one with the most energy right now!"
"Yeah, maybe that would be the case if I hadn't been expanding a Domain this entire ti around the island," I sighed.
"E-Eh? You have?!" Eraldine gasped.
"What do you an?" asked Jonathan.
"It's the domain I've set so none of those annoying Doors manifest out of nowhere," I said.
"So you're planning to expand them through the entire damn island? Is that even possible for a human like you?" Beatriz in her cat form asked.
"It has to! I an, what else can I do?" I asked her. "And I'm pretty strong- I an, it's already beginning to expand so it's getting done."
"Already?!" Partner wondered.
"Yeah, yeah," I nodded, as we walked upstairs and exited the arena. "If it wasn't for this domain at the first place, I bet the Nightmare Demons would have surprised everyone with a super attack against everyone and would've slaughtered many students. Typical academy genre scenario in shonen manga."
"Uh, what?" asked Arthur, without even knowing what I ant.
"N-Nothing…"
I checked the system ssage as we made our way back to school, walking through the corridors.
Ding!

[Congratulations! You have completed all Main Tasks of the Scenario, but the Hidden Tasks remain.]
[Technically, you've completed the Floor 49 Trial!]
[You may now choose between staying and seeing the trial to the end, while attempting to complete the other hidden tasks until the 7 days end.]

[If you chose the forr, you could still participate to earn even more Bonus Rewards with a Special Incredible Reward at the end, if you can complete the Hidden Tasks.]
[Or you may continue forward and receive the standard rewards.]
"Oh wow, we already completed everything?!" I gasped.
This ans we can actually just abandon this world if we want and move on, without even caring anymore.
It was simpler than I imagined, in three days we got it done!
"Huh? Really?" asked Lucifer. "It seems to be that way… So the other two are hidden tasks… only one is revealed, what's the other?"
"I don't know, we'll have to find out as we try to search for the truth of the world," I said. "I bet nobody wants to abandon this world yet anyways, right?"
"Yeah, no way," said Partner. "We're seeing through this to the end!"
"I'm surprised Partner would be the one to support you first, but yes I agree," nodded Eraldine.
"We have to stay," Nia agreed as well. "These people, and the threat of the Nightmares… I believe that only us can help them finally end this endless cycle."
"I guess Nyx would get disappointed on if we abandoned this place…" Lucifer nodded. "So whatever, let's see it till the end."
"Everyone… thanks."
