I Became an Academy Fraudster

Episode 3

After the exam.

One of the female teaching assistants who received the scoring sheet tilted her head.

Huh?

Nam Doyoon 50 + 50 additional points.

Is there really a guy who received extra points? Isn’t this written incorrectly?

That geeky teacher has bad taste.

With just one minute remaining, the difficulty level of the test is rapidly increased in the name of giving additional points.

In fact, at the student level, they give assignments that absolutely cannot be passed.

By the way, did anyone get extra points?

This must have been written incorrectly.

Smart-

She knocked on the teacher’s private room.

“Yes, come in.”

The teacher said with a smile.

Kikki-

“What happened?”

He smiled and said as she opened her door and stepped inside her.

“Are you in a good mood today?”

“Ah. I saw a guy who was quite useful. What else?”

“It’s not that it’s different, I thought maybe the extra points were mislabeled here.”

The teacher smiled as soon as he saw the evaluation sheet.

“It’s not wrong. It’s true that I recorded it correctly.”

“…….?”

The teaching assistant looked at him with a blank expression.

Could it be that there really was a guy who passed?

“What else do you have left to do?”

“Ah!!! No, I’m leaving now. Thank you.”

Soon after, the teaching assistant left the teacher’s private room.

The teacher fully understood her reaction.

He really hates hesitancy.

That’s why I deliberately increase the difficulty level with the intention of dropping those who haven’t entered until 1 minute is left.

It is not a test that was made to pass in the first place.

However, only one of them passed through the magic barrier, which was not intended to be passed in the first place.

In order to pass through the barrier, it was possible to be a active active hunter.

It was a barrier that only active soldiers who had fought countless life-and-death battles could pass through.

Cha Ji-yoon and Radeon were definitely great.

This time the magic barrier passed even though it was stronger than usual.

However, with one minute remaining, I was certain that I would not have passed the magic barrier, which had been strengthened.

By the way, what was he talking about?

Because mana control is so excellent, you have to be an active hunter to pass through the magic barrier, right?

Is he completely mastered in magic? What is identity?

An interesting guy came in after a long time.

****

Yebin and I started walking to the waiting room together.

The magical barrier could not detect the mana flowing through my body at all.

The mana flowing through my body is of a different nature from the mana possessed by the people of this world.

However, I don’t know how to use this mana at all.

I have to learn how to use this.

“What do I need to do to release magic outside?”

“!?”

Yebin put on an expression that she didn’t understand.

That’s right, all humans living in this world are basically learning at birth.

It must be strange not to know that.

Her expression started to get weirder and weirder.

At that time, I urgently took care of myself.

“I just wanted other people to release mana in a different way than I did.”

“Ah- what about that.”

She nodded her head in agreement.

“Usually, to release mana to the outside, it goes through three stages.

The first step is to imagine the shape to be released.

The second step is to create a shape by filling it with magical energy to suit the shape to be released.

The 3rd step is to keep the form from distorting it by continuing to distribute the mana…”

“That… okay?”.

“Yes. Is this something that appears in the magic theory book?”

As she walked and talked with her, she came to her waiting room.

“Let’s go in.”

“Yes!”

Kikki-

All eyes in the waiting room were on Yebin and me.

Only one person.

Cha Ji-yoon leaned against the wall as if he was not interested at all and did not look this way with his arms crossed.

Of the many students gathered in the auditorium, only 10 were in this waiting room.

In the first test, 90% have already failed.

“Let’s go! Everyone, let’s move on to the next test site.”

The inspector inside began to lead me to the next test site.

The next exam hall was a room whose walls were painted white.

Nothing existed there.

A young woman wearing a teacher’s name tag said from afar.

“What is it? Are there only 10 successful candidates at the 1st exam site?”

“Yes. Somehow hahahaha-“

About 20 children were standing in a line in front of the teacher.

“What is this? It’s difficult to test only 10 people individually… Ummm, let’s just drive them all at once.”

“Yes?”

“It doesn’t matter, does it? Even if it overlaps with other exam halls.”

After saying that, the teacher came out and said.

“The test is simple. It would be better to see it once than to explain it hesitantly, right?”

Soon, blue mana began to gather in the form of a ball above the teacher’s hand.

The finished form was the shape of a soccer ball. Emitting blue light.

“No way… ?”

The children looked around and made firm faces.

“Yes. You’re right. The person who gathers mana and makes it close to the shape of a sphere is the passer. “

“Can I make it like that and hold it for a few seconds?”

“Umm- I will judge that at the right time.”

The teacher looked around him and called out to a child.

“Your student?”

“Yes?”

“It would be nice if you could demonstrate it first.”

“Ah.. Yes, I understand.”

He was a kid from another test center.

“Isn’t that Rousseau? He’s quite famous for his magic.”

“Isn’t that guy just doing it?”

“From what I heard, Dad is a high-ranking wizard. I must have received a lot of early education.”

Russo took a deep breath and began gathering mana above his hands.

At first, mana gradually began to gather in the form of spheres.

Soon he began to take the form of a sphere the size of a soccer ball.

“What is it? Aren’t you just going through?”

“As expected.”

2 Seconds.

Three seconds.

However, as time passed, his ball could not maintain its spherical shape and began to distort.

One side is hollow, the other side is limp.

After listening to Yebin’s explanation, I understood the current situation.

Perhaps the purpose of the evaluation of this test is whether or not mana can be distributed evenly.

With magic, you can create any shape, but the most difficult is the shape of a sphere.

A uniform amount of magic power must be maintained from the center of the sphere to the surface of the sphere.

If even a little more mana is concentrated on one side, the shape of the sphere will collapse in an instant.

A difficult job that requires maintaining that state for a long time.

That was the crux of this test.

“Failed.”

The teacher calmly exclaimed.

“Next student?”

“Profit-“

Since then, countless children have followed, but none have perfectly realized the shape of a sphere.

“Next… Cha Ji-yoon?”

Then it was Cha Ji-yoon’s turn.

Even the teacher, who had been wearing a bored expression until now, had a twinkle in her eyes.

She seems to have some expectations from Cha Ji-yoon.

“……”

Cha Ji-yoon spread her hands without saying a word.

Above it, blue mana began to form a sphere.

Soon after, the shape of the sphere began to increase in size.

The shape of the sphere was perfectly made up to the size of a soccer ball, with no parts protruding and no large dents.

Until this point, it was the same as Rousseau.

2 Seconds

3 Seconds…

However, over time, her spherical shape has not been greatly distorted and has been maintained.

Of course, there were parts that were slightly distorted along the way.

As expected, her teacher’s magic control was still too much for her.

Around 10 seconds passed.

She started sweating profusely and could no longer hold her orb’s shape.

The moment the sphere loses its shape and is about to collapse.

“Congratulations on passing.”

The teacher said with a grin.

“Thank you.”

She bowed her head.

“Wow. It’s not just Cha Ji-yoon, Cha Ji-yoon.”

“A truly overwhelming talent.”

The children let out a sigh.

Her teacher saw her like that and smiled at her.

It’s a completely different look from when I saw the guys in front of me.

Next it was the turn of Radeon, the youngest son of a famous swordsman.

Similar to Cha Ji-yoon, there were parts that were distorted along the way, but he created magic close to the shape of a sphere.

Soon after 10 seconds passed, his orb started to lose its shape.

At that moment, the teacher smiled and said.

“Radeon students also passed.”

However, the shape of a perfect sphere was still not achieved. Some parts were distorted along the way.

“No matter how good you are, is 10 seconds the limit for being a student?”

The teacher spoke softly as if he was very sorry.

Anyway, the shape of this sphere is the 3rd stage that Yebin said.

So the teacher seemed to compromise on that part and give a passing grade if it exceeds 10 seconds.

Soon the teacher said.

“Next. Student Doyoon Nam?”

“Yes.”

I got up from my seat.

What should I do?

I still don’t know how to use the mana in my body at all.

That said, if you just do nothing and stay still, you will definitely fail.

My heart keeps beating.

“Do-yoon student?”

The teacher looks at me with puzzled eyes.

“Have you started? Aren’t you?”

It’s all or nothing anyway.

As Yebin said, I first imagined the shape of a sphere.

More specifically, I imagined the shape of a sphere gathering on my hand.

At that moment, a notification sound rang.

Tee-Ring-

[Do you want to unlock Doyoon Nam’s unique ‘magic’?-Y/N]

[How many seconds do you want to hold?]

This is the same as when using perfect copy magic.

I pressed Y and set the hold time to max.

Then, the shape of a sphere was realized in an instant.

However, my phrase was quite heterogeneous.

Unlike the previous students, who were previously blue in color, my sphere was completely transparent and could not be seen.

The shape also perfectly matched the soccer ball that the teacher implemented.

“Hey. What is he doing? Kuk kuk”

“So what are you doing standing still?”

The children started giggling.

Can’t you see this?

But, without saying anything, the teacher started staring in the direction I was making the sphere.

She seemed to see this in her eyes.

10 Seconds.

20 Seconds.

30 Seconds.

Time passed, but my sphere shape did not show any distortion.

Gradually, the teacher’s expression began to change into astonishment.
