Chapter 2305: Miyama Kaito's Birthday Celebration Party Continues

This chapter is updated by Novels.pl

I got all the questions right, while Kuro got 24 out of 25, missing just one That much was already clear by the final question, so what Im really interested in now is the ranking from this point on.

Well then, starting from third place, since the comments will get long, well just add brief explanations as I go. Third place theres a tie, so Ill announce them together. With 22 correct answers out of 25: Tre-san and Eris-san!

Oh~~ 22 correct answers is pretty amazing!

Indeed. Eris-san used her broad knowledge well, answering the Otherworld-related and high-difficulty questions with a lot of consistency. She seemed to have a hard time distinguishing between Shallow Vernal-samas expressions, but she got every question right that was within the range of what a marquis daughter could study and learn about.

Eris-san getting 22 right is something I can understand. This quiz did require broad knowledge, but not necessarily super in-depth knowledge, so it wasnt just a matter of having lived a long time. It felt more like the kind of challenge where having a wide range of knowledge across various fields was key, and Eris-san seems quite strong in that area.

What was more surprising was Tre-san. True, Tre-san is clever in her own way, and she once mentioned that she has a habit of getting interested in many things, trying them out, and quickly getting bored, so she mightve accumulated a wide breadth of knowledge that way.

Still, I really cant help getting this ditzy vibe from her. It might be rude, but it really did feel unexpected.

As for Tre-san, she basically lucked her way into third place. No, well, about half of her answers were ones she genuinely knew, but for around 10 of them, she just guessed randomly and happened to get them right. She even guessed Shallow Vernals expressions correctly by pure chance.

Well, lucks a form of skill too, right~~

So apparently Tre-san made it to third place thanks to her sharp instincts, lucky guesses, basically. Honestly, she does seem like the type to excel in things that rely on intuition or chance she gives off a strong good luck vibe.

Well, like Fate-san said, luck is part of ability too. And half her answers were correct through her own merit, so Id say thats impressive enough.

Next, we have a three-way tie for fourth place. With 21 correct answers out of 25: Isis-san, Magnawell-san, and Zwei-san.

That makes sense, they all seem like theyd be knowledgeable across a wide range of fields.

Just as Fate-san said, the people announced in fourth place gave off a smart and well-read impression.

Isis-san has read an incredible number of books, so she has knowledge in a wide range of fields. Magnawell-san also knows a lot of things, and Zwei-san gives off the vibe of an intellectual as well, so you could say its a convincing lineup.

First, Isis-san, her hobby is reading, so she has a broad base of knowledge, but due to her personal circumstances, she hasnt interacted much with Otherworlders, so she missed a few of the Otherworld-related questions. Magnawell-san, as expected, has great general knowledge, but before he got his clone body, he couldnt travel around much, so he missed some geography-related questions about the Human Realm and God Realm. Zwei-san was steady overall, but seemed to struggle a bit with God Realm topics. That said, all three got 21 questions right, so these are just minor differences, really.

Its true that, unlike Kuro, Isis-san probably hadnt had much interaction with Otherworlders, so when it came to those topics, she mightve had to rely on secondhand knowledge.

As for Magnawell-san, that makes sense too. Given his enormous size, his movement wouldve been restricted, and as he mentioned before, after gaining a clone body, even familiar places looked completely different. Originally, with his size, he wouldve only ever seen things from a towering, top-down perspective, so I can imagine he mightve struggled on questions like identifying tourist landmarks in the Human Realm.

Zwei-san might simply not have had many chances to visit God Realm. She seems busy managing their territory, and it doesnt look like she has any acquaintances among the Gods, so thats understandable to some extent.

Still, looking at it overall, the people with high scores mostly make sense, theyre the types youd expect. Well, there were some like Ein-san who didnt participate, but if they had, they likely wouldve placed near the top too.

Now then, well conclude the ranking announcements at 5th place. Honestly, there are too many ties beyond this point, so it would just go on forever. So, tied for 5th place, with 20 correct answers out of 25, we have: Megiddo-san, Lillywood-san, Lilia-san, Blossom-san, Fafnir-san, Chronois-san, Life-san, Gaia-san, Akane-san, Aoi-san, Fors-san, and Chris-san.

Thats a lot of people

Well, the average number of correct answers was around 15 to 18, so the people in 5th place did quite well overall. Also, everyone from 1st to 5th place will receive trophies. Theyre made of platinum, gold, silver, bronze, and iron, respectively, kind of like the hard currency. And with that, the quiz tournament is officially over. Everyone, thank you for participating!

And so, the quiz tournament, which turned out to be quite a hit, came to an end. My birthday party, which had grown into a fairly large event, was also finally drawing to a close.
