Cherry's POV:
After the medical staff treated my wound, I went to the square of the military academy.
The placement exam was about to start, so the center of the big square was crowded with people.
As soon as I got back there, I heard that Sylvia would also take the exam.
She must really be overestimating herself. Her mother was a Beta, so she naturally had excellent genes. But wanting to enter Class C was simply delusional.
The first round was the test of speed. When the starting gun was fired, everyone would turn into wolves and rush to the finish line.
I stood in the middle of the crowd in a good mood and waited for the competition to start. Of course, I was determined to win. Even if I couldn't enter Class B, I had to work hard to make it to Class C. I heard that Prince Richard often gave lectures in the three top classes—A, B, and C. If I could enter any of these classes, I would have more chances to get close to him.
I looked around casually. It was only then that I realized that the competition seemed very grand. Aside from Prince Rufus and Prince Richard, Queen Laura and Prince Rufus' "fiancee", Alina, were there too. It looked like the royal family took this placement exam very seriously.
I still had time, so I quickly took out my small mirror and retouched my makeup. With so many members of the royal families watching the competition, I had to maintain my most beautiful appearance even if I had to turn into a wolf later. The real hunter was always ready, waiting for an opportunity to catch the prey. And my beauty was my best weapon.
After retouching my makeup, I looked around. Then I saw Sylvia, the lowly slave, standing in a clearing not far away, and no one was around her.
I smoothened my hair and walked to Sylvia coquettishly. "Hey, little slave! I heard that if you can't enter Class C or above, you have to leave. What a pity!"
Sylvia rolled her eyes and just ignored me.
She was indeed a bitch. Why was she still pretending to be pure and lofty? She was nothing more than a stray dog.
I gritted my teeth, crossed my arms over my chest, and squinted at her. "How dare you compete with us elites?! Have you forgotten that you're just a lowly slave? You'd better give up now. Otherwise, you will only embarrass yourself in front of so many big shots."
