NOVEL NEXT chapter 14
14 – Exam Preparation
Saturday, Claris Academy Student Council Room.
“Ugh… under… Ah, hybrid junior… … junior… ”
Even after a day has passed, the anger of Lilith, the student council president of the second year magic club, has not yet subsided.
My hands are shaking, and my mind is hardly in control, so I feel like I’m going to scream and scream.
“Lilith… Calm down… Calm.”
Admittedly, demon worship is not an easy task.
Because in this academy that exists only for destruction, we have to go down a path that no one else goes.
Of course, it was Lilith who thought it was justified to have this kind of ordeal.
She covered her face with her hands and sobbed.
“after… heh heh… Brother Rev… Pull out those eyes… want… ”
Did I see him too easily?
Once, the weakness was caught, and unexpected expenses occurred.
I ended up playing in the guy’s palm.
So, Rev Denek.
I want to kill that person. want to kill
Making it as painful as possible, screaming and ejaculating as a will, and making it a demon… it’s going to explode
And let’s do human sacrifice.
That way, we are getting closer to Satan’s will.
Waiting for a little longer until then, Lilith clenched her fists so tightly that her nails were crushed.
“wait a munite… Huh, junior… ”
The first-year screening test is on Monday.
That day is the perfect day to mine him.

Sunday, academy gym.
After two days of well-developed muscles, I was heading to the shooting lab.
“Uh, uh… ”
The black market fatigue remedies were very effective,
Buying and eating inside the academy was difficult to see.
This is also a game decision, and my body is a closed beta test, so consumable leveling may not be applied.
In the early days of ＜Reincarnated Hero＞, consumable efficiency was different for each region, so cumbersome movement was forced to obtain the best performing potion.
From this point of view, it cannot be considered a fraudulent passive without flaws.
the entrance to the shooting range.
-sparkle.
The crystal ball lights up for a moment, allowing me to enter.
And what greeted me…
– Shh!
-bang!
– Shh!
– Kwagwang!
Ranged magic, javelin, memorization, bow, etc…
In each space where you can clearly feel the wall, though it is transparent, the appearance of the cadets wearing training clothes and immersing themselves in practice was reminiscent of the Taereung Athlete’s Village.
‘The problem is, umm, there is no seat.’
The shooting range has a private room and a shared practice room, but the private room was already full, probably because of reservations made by seniors.
I was so tired that I woke up a little late.
Inevitably, the common shooting range B was empty.
.
.
.
A circular dome-shaped space.
I stood at the far end of the road and pulled out a crossbow.
After practice yesterday, I dried it well, so I like the feel of the dry feeling.
The distance to the target is 50 m.
It’s a shorter distance than Olympic archery, but it’s not easy for me either.
‘One step at a time… ‘
– Shh!
-Pak!
first step.
It’s close to the edge, but I think I’ve gotten used to hitting the target itself.
I wiped my hands once and loaded my second foot.
– Shh!
-Pak!
This attempt also fell within target. Instead, it was further away from the center point.
Okay.
My goal is just to fit.
The power is enough with a crossbow, so getting it right is the primary goal.
That one is enough.
The moment the third arrow is framed like that,
Someone sat next to me.
“?”
White skin that is not pale enough, platinum blonde hair that suits it…
a familiar face…
It was Selena, the heroine who appeared in the main episode 2 or so.
Did he come to shoot the bow too?
Obviously, he has a cynical personality, but there is no sloth attribute.
Therefore, there must be a private practice room, but why… Dare…
It’s also the seat next to me in this empty place?!
Isn’t this the same as going to the toilet next to my urinal to work?
Despite my silent cries, she just stood still with her eyes closed.
He didn’t even take out his bow because he had no intention of training.
“… … ”
And let me also watch her quietly,
Selena opened her left eye only to look at me, then closed it again.
“…Hey, what are you?”
“… ”
No answer.
Come to think of it, even in the novel, my only interests were archery, self-management, training, and training, mindset, and meditation.
Like the last time I went to look at it.
I mean, did you come to check on me because I said I was going to hold you?
To see how well you shoot?
Even though it was the first meeting, I had no choice but to ask her.
“… … Hey, maybe you… Aren’t you here to spy on me?”
To my blunt question, she answered noblely.
“… … Are you going to do it?”
sweat on your hands
‘Leave it alone!’
The problem is that I can’t shoot dirty by the standards of aspiring academy shooters.
Because it’s Hallin…
Isn’t it the same in the gym?
When you bench press, if you can only do it with the bare bar, you have no choice but to look around you?
Are you insensitive to newbies?
“It’s embarrassing to look at you like that… ”
“… … ”
“All right, all right.”
Considering Lev Denek’s reputation, he’s not a man of words.
Reluctantly, I loaded my third foot.
And the moment you take the aiming posture,
-…
Selena was already out of Saro.
“what the.”
You can tell just by looking at your posture, right?
So, alone and lonely, I immersed myself in the practice.

– Saah…
Fortunately, the weather was sunny on the day of the screening test for grade assignment.
The test will be held in Lint Forest, the place with the largest site in the academy, which is a good place to build a unique barrier.
Although it is the first schedule of the day, it was well past 4 pm, and the tall trees created a rather dark atmosphere.
The test started at 5 o’clock, so I went out to the outdoors and the cadets were buzzing with conversation.
“Hey did you see that? Chamber 1 was the third person to wake up.”
“Oh, I saw it. What took over six hours?”
“It’s poisonous. Did you use any trick? Now there is a three-hour limit.”
“Anonymous is suspicious… ”
“The manager is still an emeritus professor, no doubt. Was there any adhesion?”
Hmmm. Hmm.
quite disappointing
I think it’s good to keep it anonymous.
I didn’t know there would be this much interest.
I turned on the status window with a shy mind.

Crossbow – Mastery (3)
———————————————————
With the power of the weekend special training, it achieved its own results.
Above all, crossbow mastery is 3,
———————————————————
[Crossbow Mastery] [3]
[Based on the crossbow’s maximum range of 70%, the minimum accuracy is adjusted to 95%]
[Adds +2% to Crossbow’s Critical Strike Chance]
———————————————————
Even with the critical hit chance, there will be very little chance of a miss in the hit.
It’s still incredibly low compared to the main characters, but I’m confident that I’ll be able to pass this test with ease.
Then, another familiar sound effect was heard.
-Charang!
———————————————————
[Supporting Quest]
[Main Event 2]
[Mission Object: How to help a supporting actor. Pass the alchemist ‘Hazel the Wonder’ in the screening test]
[Reward: Supporting Score 100]
[Remaining time: 11 hours 59 minutes]
———————————————————
‘What is this…’
Hazel the Wonder.
I don’t remember it very well because it didn’t exist.
With a voice that roughly drops tension, he has a passive attitude.
It seems that the overall abilities were not well described with the glasses-wearing face without features, and above all, she is not the main character.
As with all extras and supporting roles, a role used as a catalyst for an event to occur.
For example, Rev, if it were normal, would have helped Edwin wake up by combining with Magic Rags.
Even in the case of Hazel, it’s a character like a piece of luggage that exists to create a sense of crisis in the main character’s party.
‘Now I understand the system.’
read from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Just before the start of the main event like this, that supporting quest seems to occur.
At that moment, the words of the female cadet next door were heard.
-It’s a big deal for our party… One person is not enough.
– Then how about him?
-who?
For a moment, I can feel a cheap feeling staring at me.
– Hey, do you want to die?!
– Be quiet, I can hear you…
‘It’s like a dog… ‘
It’s a subtle feeling to see your boyfriend passing by over there in real time.
Hearing all these things, it broke my heart.
Yeah, it’s all Rev’s karma.
The grade is determined according to the results of this test, and various benefits and gems are also paid.
So, there is no one who dares to team up with someone like me to scrape and crumble.
Hazel or whatever, the kid will be the same.
‘After all, I must give up the supporting quest.’
It was time to think so.
For some reason, Arya was slowly walking towards me from afar.
I quickly looked away.
Also, because Melissa can be taunted, and I don’t want to be misunderstood.
‘I wish I had started the exam sooner… ‘
“excuse me.”
“… ”
“Mr. Rev Denek?”
“Uh, me?”
I was taken aback, but the surrounding cadets, including Melissa, were unexpectedly quiet for a moment.
A delusion that will never come true.
The development of the pretty girl talking to the classmate asa appeared.
Wasn’t this in the novel?
But Arya clearly told me.
“Party with me.”
It was a simple, blunt tone that contained only business.
