Chapter 071: Preparation of the Festival

“We can not lose at the festival this time," cried Solar in front of his contemporaries, "At least, we should not fall in the last stage."

"It won't be easy" one friend responded, "Our brothers are much more experienced than we are. They're hard to beat."

"I never said it was easy" Solar replied firmly. His gaze swept across the room where the first-year children gathered. During his time as a member of the Disciplinary Committee, he has been known by everyone. His warrants were the greatest among the other disciples so he was appointed to lead the meetings of the army. "Therefore, we must seriously train. Let us not forget. Last semester, we couldn't get stuck at all. We have no compote at all. That's why we lost."

"Here, we're going to put together the best teams we're going to send to win every race" Solar said. He also read out a list of competitions shared by OSIS. The young man gave everyone a chance to present themselves. If there is a race that lacks people, they will negotiate it. Every name that comes out of the deliberation is obliged to accept its role.

Ats do not choose any existing race. However, he was appointed to take part in the Inter-departure Combat Competition. It was a competition held to train potential students in the military field. Usually, its members contain children from field classes such as Zarah Classes.

"The news is, the Combat Competition at this festival will be more exciting than usual," Arjuna who was also included in the race team gave news that had actually been heard by everyone. They're on their way home from school. Solar responded flatly, "Yes, we know it too, Mr. Pos."

Somehow, Arjuna earned that nickname amid his service as a member of the Information Committee. On the committee, he was closest to Master Eden, the head of the Information Committee. Any information spread in the academy would definitely pass through him first to be filtered.

"Hm, therefore, we must immediately discuss the strategy on each map" urged Arjuna. In the past, when he first heard the nickname, he must have immediately protested. However, after getting used to it, he decided to just accept it. "We will fight in the digital area projected from the world outside the constellation. We have often studied it in class, but the fact of the field is usually much different from the theory we imagine."

"You know the map info, don't you?" ask Ats. Arjuna nodded. For information related to this festival, its spread is limited to the committee, while not all members of OSIS are the festival committee. Most committee chairs are filled by BEA.

"Hais .. very dear," Ats complained, "Usually you have the ability to find such information."

"Well, how else?" Arjuna responded lightly. No matter at all.

"You stole the information" Solar proposed, "You've been taught the same thing as Master Eden."

"Em ...," Arjuna seemed to think that it was true, "Yes too."

"About!" reply Ats and Putu in unison. In fact, Ats himself has tried all the existing maps. After all, he also helped develop the digital technology. His research went well despite several minor failures. In that projection room, the particle practitioners had already been ensured to be safe using his technique.

"Basic!" putu added, "You guys are so this is all about joining OSIS?"

"Ih, jokingly," Arjuna reasoned as usual, "His eyes are nothing to be serious about."

"God! Quiet down!" whispered Arjuna with a serious face, "That's a secret, you know!"

"That, right?" Putu went back to looking for Arjuna, "You're the one who confessed it."

"Haha," Arjuna laughed blandly, unwilling to reply again. At a crossroads, they split up. Arjuna and Solar step into the OSIS children's dormitory, while Ats and Putu return directly to their own dormitory.

"What did you ask me about that?" putu asked after they split up, "You know everything."

Although Putu did not develop the virtual technology, his family's company was involved in the project. He can get one or two pieces of information from there, including Ats' involvement in its development. Since then, the two have often discussed the technology.

"There's no particular reason anyway," Ats shook his head softly, "I was just asking."

"Oh," Putu mangosteen-manggut believes, "You guys have betrothed each role, right? What role did you take?"

"Em ...," Ats weighed in first. The team formation was not something that could be revealed carelessly, even at a classmate. It could be, there are espionage efforts made by their level brothers. That's what happened to them last semester. They lost in the first round easily because one team member exposed the formation to the level brother who was idly asking.

"I'm relative anyway," Ats did not want to give a straightforward answer, "See the situation the same condition just a moment ago."

"Arselan," called Ats in his heart, "Prepare the virtual space."

"Well, sir," replied Arselan in response. 

Ats has clearly had a certain role in his team in the Combat Competition later. He was assigned to protect the territorial flag from enemy attacks. In addition, he also acts as a guide who governs from within the combat base space. During the race later, his decision is the most affect the performance of his friends.

The shift from afternoon to evening is still quite long. Ats have a lot of time until the activities in the afternoon later. He decided to revisit his virtual training maps.

"Arselan," called Ats as he lay alone in his bed, "Enable the virtual world!"

"Enabling the virtual world" Arselan said, "The virtual world is opened. Entering the world …."
