[Echonic]

LOL! Nice plot twist.

 

[Echonic]

Wait of course it is, examiners probably wouldn't allow something too bad happen to one of the examines.

 

[lapizlazuli]

every story has two sides.

 

[Boomburst]

Pretty damn interesting that even the 'thieves' were part of the exam.

 

[MRPANDOPOOL]

Man, this is nice. The asshole looking adventurers are actually part of the staff and they are just testing the newbies!! I love it when author's don't follow a trope to to the last letter!

 

[Tearsax]

That was some nice twist.

 

[Doomer]

yea no... if all they did was come out and threaten them or punch them i could buy them being there just to test the newbies but they tried to kill the MC and his buddies...

 

[WhimsiCat]

@Doomer : Where's the proof of that?

Lento, who based on this chapter have noticed what those guys are doing, only said they 'target' his group, nothing more.

Heck, if you check the chapter, Lento even hit the archer guy with the flat of the sword to only knock him out and same with the magician (a punch when he could've easily killed the guy when he threw that sword)

 

[Varler]

Oh! So those guys were actually part of the exam? That seems like a really dangerous job for them, though.

 

[Doomer]

@Whimsicat well if you did re-read the chapter you would notice that the archer aimed for MC's head and if MC didn't have such great dodge skills he would be dead

 

[macarroiz]

@Doomer that's why he were been tested, to see if he's good enough to dodge it

 

[Serapheid]

I was wondering why that bald guy looked familiar... I just didn’t think it was him since their group attacked them, but this side chap cleared up so much.

 

[WhimsiCat]

@Doomer : The arrow did passed to his side, but considering we didn't see the arrow head itself, it could've been blunted for all we know.

The whole point of that chapter structure was to obscure details that would've given away these guys not actually being villainous characters.

 

[GerryCerryBery]

More manga should have behind-the-scenes-material like this.

 

[Meridis]

...skinny Nappa?

 

[StarGasm]

Wow, congrats Author-san, what a twist!

 

[PolarMeow]

This, too, was a test! This promotional exam keeps impressing me further and further.

 

[Winchan]

A promotional exam that actually has a challenge with the staged use of adventuring dungeons and difficulty immersion and not just some flimsy sword sparring with an old guild guy?

 

[zeever]

the author know their stuff huh, good manga well writen
