It was a tough pill to swallow, but the students had to soon admit that this task was not as easy as they had thought it to be.

Not one person or team could genuinely take the glory for stealing the eggs. The Green skinned shadow beast was too much of a threat for that pipe dream.

One or two teams tried attacking at the same time. But those teams ended up losing terrible to the fangs of the beast.

The Students slowly realized that If they wanted to get the eggs from the nest, they had no choice but to work together.

And so an official meeting was called.

The students gathered together some four hundred meters away from their target for a meeting.

In this meeting, everyone was encouraged to make suggestions for a plan that could work.

Just like anyone else, Chiron also attended this meeting. However, he kept silent through out the time.

Chiron had discovered that he needed to amend his plans since the first time he saw the beast attack. All the while as the others contemplated what to do, he also contemplated on his own how to adjust his plans.

But he had felt like something was wrong.

At the moment, he had even decided to temporarily shelf his idea of gaining points. If he did not discover what was wrong, he was not going to have the luxury of gaining points.

The students gathered round. In other to cop chaos, only the team leaders were allowed to talk. The team leaders stayed in the center of the temporary made camp. f𝒓𝗲𝗲𝒘𝑒𝚋noѵ𝒆𝗹.co𝗺

"The Green Skinned shadow leopard is too much a threat for us to get the eggs. We have to first of all get rid of the beast." Carla first suggested.

Even though she was from a lesser back ground than most of the people here, she was quite articulate and bold.

Even now, Chiron could see why she was a forward runner for the Clan's safety in the future.

All the other team leaders nodded in unison.

"But how are we going to do that. That thing is fast, and its touch is just too dangerous. Wally had his legs removed in one swipe and he is still unconscious." One team leader added.

"Hmmm! But we have no choice. This is the only way," Carla added, "its either we kill the beast or go back to the elders empty handed."

There was suddenly a low murmur amongst the students. Nobody wanted to go back empty handed and be considered a failure, but nobody wanted to die.

Yet, they had seen how fast the beast was and how dangerous it could be.

Nobody wanted to be the next Wally.

"I have a suggestion!" Cablen spoke up. His voice was not loud, but it commanded a fair bit of respect. The moment he talked, all the children kept quiet to listen. "Why don't we do it like this? Let's bait it! And then we kill it."

Everybody looked at Cablen in surprise. None of them had thought of that. And this was truly a good idea.

In fact, Chiron looked at Cablen in surprise. He could not believe that the muscle brain could come up with such a good idea.

Luring the beast out was actually a good idea. The entire plan was actually quite simple. Lure the beast out and attack in unison. After its death, share the eggs. This plan was an agreeable one.

But Chiron immediately identified the mistake with it. This children had greatly underestimated this cored beast.

And so the Students agreed and some of them went out to hunt nearly cored beasts that could be used as bait to lure the Green Skinned Shadow beast out in the open for them to get rid of it.

Some of the teams also used this as an opportunity to eat and rest.

Nearly cored beasts that looked like antelopes were hunted and skinned properly. The Children bathed the meat of the animal in its own blood to increase the appeal of the meal.

Just like they had planned, everybody took their hiding positions. Everybody except Chiron. He really could not be bothered with their plan. As far as he was concerned, it was stupid.

A strong rope was tied to the meat and it was dropped as close as possible to the nest.

And then came the waiting. It took some time, but eventually, the beast slowly rose from the shadows surrounding the nest. First came a paw with its sharp claws, digging into the soft earth as it slowly materialized from the ground.

The moment it appeared, all the students ensure to remain as silent as possible.

The beast came out. Its nose sniffing for the meal that had been presented before it.

It came out completely from the shadows. The students saw that their plan was working and it made them excited.

However, the beast only barely sniffed a little. And then it turned and dived back into the shadows.

This took the students by surprise.

However, Chiron instantly understood what was happening.

This was a cored beast. Cored beast had gone beyond the stage of just eating to fill their bellies. Now, they ate to not just feed their bellies but to also absorb energy from their prey.

The Green skinned shadow leopard was a beast that had a spirit energy core. Serving the beast meat that had not absorbed spirit energy was like serving a normal person uncooked meat.

It other words, it was totally disgusting.

The students once more had another meeting. It took a while, but someone eventually caught up to the reason for their failure, along with other reasons like the nearness of the meat to the beast's nest.

What they needed was cored meat. Fortunately for them, they were cored beasts around the place. Of course this cored beasts were herbivores.

For this test, the elders had been generous enough to get rid of any other predators in at least thirty kilometers of the test area.

This was to ensure that the students were able to focus on the important task at hand.

"That means we need to hunt a cored beast," Nora suggested, "I and my team members will handle that."

All the other team leaders nodded. It was encouraging when strong people took up mantle of responsibility. It had a way of raising morale.

And in this batch of students, Nora was acclaimed the strongest.

"If that will be the case, who will then take the beasts meat close enough to the green skinned Leopard?" Cablen asked.

However, as he asked, he used a corner of his eyes to look in Omo's direction.

Omo understanding his signal, immediately stood up out of turn.

He coughed a little, and spoke in a moral tone, "you all will forgive me for talking out of turn. It's just that I could not take it anymore. I just had to speak up to this. The last time we laid a trap for the Green skinned cored beast, a particular coward decided not join us."

As he said this, he looked towards Chiron.

"We are sons and daughters of the great Chikitsa clan. Our ancestor fought through blood and danger. He was not a coward when he faced the Elves. And since then, never had we ever had to coward away from danger. It is how we have grown and expanded for centuries. We are not cowards!"

Chiron suddenly had an idea as to where this was going.

"I suggest that we give the task of presenting the meat forward to Chiron. As a member of his team and this clan, I'm bothered for his future and the future of generations to come. We can not have a coward in our clan."

The moment he finished speaking, the students all entered a low murmur that was steadily rising.

Chiron instantly understood what was happening. It was true that he had not participated the last time the students had hunted for the Green Skinned leopard.

But that was because he could not be bothered about their plan.

Apparently, Cablen had planned for this before. Some other children in different teams suddenly voiced out their agreements.

Chiron looked in their direction. Most of this students were Cablen's fellow bully mates. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐om

Their voices naturally helped push the agreement of the other students to the suggestion. After all, no body wanted to be the person that would do such a risky task. It was far better to push someone else forward to do it.

In this case, Chiron was the scape goat. And their justifiable reason, was the fact that he was a coward.

All of them had selectively forgotten the amazing things Chiron had done during the last tests. Also, they had forgotten that he did not have a Dantain to channel Spirit energy.

Nora could see what was happening.

She tried to talk, and persuade them, but at the moment, no one was listening to her.

The voice of the majority was currently louder.

Meanwhile, Cablen had a slight smile at the corner of his mouth. He was using the pressure of the masses on Chiron.

Even Chiron thought of this as a good idea. However, at the end of the day, this was Chiron.

Chiron was resting on a tree with his sword on his back. He suddenly stood up to his feet. As he did, Devil's touch could already sense its master's bloodlust.

Chiron reached for Devil's Touch on his back And then he slammed the sword into the ground.

*DUM!*

One ton of weight was nothing to frown at. The slamming of the sword into the ground suddenly brought about silence from the crowd.

Chiron raised his head. His eyes focused on Omo. His words left his lips slowly, "who is going to make me do it...!?"
