I opened my mouth wide and—
«The Maze of Madness has finished. Survivors are awarded 30 points for the 2nd trial. The ones responsible for slaying The Cursed King are awarded ten times the amount.»
I'd been teleported back to the white space...? The screams from the students who'd been with me and Al abruptly stopped as well. I saw tens of students hunched over, trying to hurl but unable to.
I blinked and looked up at Al who coincidentally teleported next to me. And then I stared wide-eyed at my points.
«310 Points»
I looked at Al who also seemed shocked. We'd both received 300 points? How was that even possible?
I thought back to the events that had just occurred. So I first:
1: Tackled Al to the ground, saving his life.
2: Wasted an artifact, saving other students.
3: Gave him my flute so he could kill the Cursed King.
