The girl who was punished by the gods counterattacked and became the group's favorite

Tia was hugged tightly without paying attention. She staggered back a few steps, steadied herself and hugged Fina.

"Okay."

Gisai talked to another boy and they decided to sleep together tonight.

After communicating with the boy in the tent, Gisele saw another girl coming out of the tent who was obviously a little scared.

Juno took a small step to the left, looked at Tia and Fina hugging each other and smiling, then unconsciously stepped back, turned to look at the boys, and saw Gisele looking at him.

"Although the academy has cleared this area, it's still best to have someone on guard for everyone's safety," Giselle said, quickly adding, "I'll watch over everyone for now!"

Juno cast a grateful look towards Giselle. She was rather introverted and didn't say much along the way.

Tia and Fina also stopped joking and turned to look at Giselle.

"You've used up so much mana today. How can you possibly recover properly if you have to keep watch?" Fina didn't understand. "Since the school has been cleaned up, it should be fine. Otherwise, there wouldn't be only slimes along the way."

Tia turned to look at Juno. If Gisele was worried about this problem at the beginning, she should have said it when Fina was talking just now. Now that they have discussed it, they should talk about it out of consideration for Juno.

"Lime, can you keep watch? Wake me up if you see anyone or a monster approaching us."

"Of course! The moonlight in the forest also has a different kind of magic." Qingning agreed immediately. It happened that it had been with everyone this afternoon and had not come out for some fresh air, so it was a good time to move around in the evening.

"Juno, why don't you sleep with us? This tent isn't big, but if we squeeze in, we can still sleep three people." Tia offered. "How about Fina? It's not good for her to sleep alone in a tent in the forest."

Fina pulled Tia's sleeve and glanced at Juno.

Juno bit her lower lip unconsciously, feeling a little timid. Feeling Fina's gaze, she just looked up and waited for Fina's answer.

Fina didn't know why Tia chose Juno among so many people to join their team, but she didn't want to offend Tia, so she agreed.

"of course can."

Juno actually didn't know why she was chosen. Her grades were only average and her social network was pitifully small.

When she heard that Fina agreed, she was a little shocked. She didn't expect that she would agree. She looked at Gisele, Fina and Tia with gratitude.

Seeing that the situation here was resolved, Tia turned to look at Gisai, "Gisai, you should get a good rest tonight. I will have my spirit pet keep watch. If anything happens, it will wake me up."

Gisele originally proposed this plan to reassure Juno. Now that Juno is resting with Tia and the others, and with Tia's pet keeping watch over him, he can rest assured.

"Okay, let's get some rest then."

After Tia made the arrangements, she let Qingning slip away and ran to find Juno.

"I invited you to form a team together, but we only got together today. We separated because of the competition, and I didn't even say hello to you."

"No...it's okay." Juno waved her hand and stepped back somewhat unnaturally.

Tia also took a few steps back. She didn't expect that someone would be so socially anxious.

She thought about it...

It seems that this Juno was recommended to her by Jurgen. Is he trying to trick her on purpose?

But then I thought again, she just has a little social anxiety, it doesn’t mean she is not capable.

Juno's already uneasy heart fell even further when he saw Tia retreating and falling into deep thought.

As expected, she is still not suitable for having friends...

"I'm sorry, but once a team is formed, there's no way to change teammates."

what?

Tia almost thought she was hallucinating. How could the team members be replaced out of the blue?

"I just stepped back because I wanted to give you enough safe social distance, and you're also great, why change teammates? You're just not good at socializing."

Juno nodded and opened her mouth, but just as she was about to say something, she heard Fina calling for help again.

"Tia, come in quickly, let's rest early!"

"Juno, come here. We need to rest together tonight." Tia went over and pulled Juno towards the tent. "What did you want to ask just now? You opened your mouth but didn't say anything."

"Nothing..." Juno subconsciously wanted to say that it was nothing, but when he met Tia's gaze, he spoke again for some unknown reason.

"Don't you think being socially awkward is bad for the team?"

"If there are any problems, it's enough to communicate promptly. The competition emphasizes teamwork and member strength, not social skills."

As Tia spoke, she felt a little ashamed because she had just doubted Jurgen because of this issue.

"Yeah, the competition isn't about social skills..." Juno muttered to himself, his eyes shining as he looked at Tia.

Fina was about to come over and pull Tia to sleep next to her when she saw the two of them holding hands. She frowned and put her arm around Tia's other arm.

"Would you sleep next to me?"

Juno subconsciously wanted to break free from Tia's hand and make herself transparent and marginalized.

However, Tia held Juno's hand tightly when he tried to escape. "Let's sleep together, the three of us. We have new plans tomorrow."

Juno sensed that Fina was hostile towards her and didn't dare to sleep next to her, so in the end the three of them turned Tia into a sandwich and slept like a sandwich.

Fortunately, apart from this farce, the night was peaceful.

When they woke up early the next morning, they prepared to head towards the direction where Tia had discovered that the Slime King might be.

The people I met along the way were either exhausted, looking like they had been fighting to kill slimes all night, or they were full of energy and ready to start a new day's tasks.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion, they continued to kill as they went.

When the sun was high in the sky, we finally arrived at the place where we set the trap yesterday.

Tia noticed the trap she had set at a glance, not because she remembered it so clearly, but because the trap had been used again.

The trap was set in the same way as before, the only difference was that there were not so many slimes running towards her.

It seems that most people still choose to strangle the slimes they see, resulting in a small number of slimes.

"Why are you looking over there?

"Isn't this the trap Tia told us about?"

Gisai glanced around. According to Tia, the trap should have been covered by her, so how could it be discovered again?
