Fifty students. Ten teams. One horrifyingly stupid game.
Once the students formed groups of five, their homeroom teacher, Mr. Nocty, led them to the back of the academy, where the entrance to the thick forest lay.
Standing in the clearing between the first line of trees and the building behind them, Mr. Nocty took position at the front.
"This place is what we call the training field," he said, voice quiet but clear. "Today, you'll be playing a game called Spirit Tag."
"Spirit Tag?" the students murmured, exchanging confused glances.
Mikel arched a brow, tilting his head slightly. But before he could even wonder what kind of game it was, the twins, Boom and Blitz, cheered excitedly.
"Yippee — SPIRIT CHASE!" Boom shouted.
"I don't want to be It!" Blitz added with a pout.
Mikel's face twitched as he watched the twins bounce excitedly. He still couldn't believe this was his team. Had he known, he would've begged his way into another group.
