The 4th task, "Making Friends," had already been underway for 4 hours.

By the time the sun, which had risen in the east, was beginning to make its presence felt near the crown of her head, the clock had already passed noon.

The deadline for this task was 9 PM in the evening, after 12 hours. So at this point, a third of the task time had already passed.

So, how many of the 121 candidates had passed the task so far? Strangely enough, the answer was... only 9.

To think that even after 4 hours, the success rate hadn't reached even 10%. This was truly an incredibly difficult challenge.

"Hah... it's already been 4 hours, and I still haven't found a single one...!"

The low success rate of the task could be attributed to various reasons.
