I Became the Student Council President of the Academy City

27 – Transfer Ceremony (3)

People were greatly shaken by the sudden remark.

“The end?”

“Really?”

“Oh, you must be kidding.”

“To be knocked out just because you’ve been knocked down once…”

“That’s ridiculous.”

However, after the short talk, the student council president went down the podium without hesitation, and anxiety spread among the people who were watching blankly.

“Hey, isn’t it real?”

“No way, no matter how hard it is.”

“But the instructors are still…”

At that time, anxiety was spreading through the crowd.

“What? Eliminated?”

“Are you lying?”

“I can’t believe it!”

The dropouts who came to their senses after receiving the recovery from the instructors also reacted with embarrassment at the sudden news.

From their point of view, they lost consciousness in the sudden attack and suddenly dropped out.

Of course, it must be absurd news for them who have prepared everything for admission.

“This is absurd!”

“What if I suddenly attack like this!”

“At least give me time to prepare!”

Slowly.

However, the head of the Education Department, who was still looking down at the voice of dissatisfaction that was clearly spreading, raised the microphone.

『That word now. Are you going to do it during battle?”

“…….”

Saying that in a firm tone, she continued her words while looking at the dropouts who kept her mouth shut for a moment.

『This is Academy City. It is the cradle of warriors whose goal is to strike and kill demons.”

『Even among Academy City’s numerous faculties, you are aspiring students to the most important combat department. You, who will beat the demons the most and see the most demons, must always deal with the demons’ attack.”

“Ha, but no matter how much, such a sudden test…”

『Don’t view demons as ordinary monsters. They think and plan like we do. It cleverly blends into the gaps between humans and encourages confusion.”

『Asmodians never declare an attack on us. Are you going to tell the demons attacking you to stop for a moment?”

“…….”

As her words continued, the voice of displeasure gradually diminished.

They must know.

If this was a real battle, they would have died long ago.

Everyone here felt implicitly that only those who at least endured the energy of the moment had a high chance of surviving in the actual battle.

However, there are people who understand with their heads but not with their hearts.

“Don’t be ridiculous! I’m even in debt for this entrance ceremony! I’m afraid I’ll fall from here!”

“Yes! No matter how much you prepare for the demons, this isn’t even a real battle! If it’s a test, be prepared like a test!”

“Doesn’t matter if we’re going to admit it!”

Even though the education director’s words were over, there were still a small number of people who expressed their dissatisfaction and tried to gather public opinion.

How long did the voice of dissatisfaction last?

The moment when the entire public opinion was about to express their dissatisfaction.

After looking at them for a while, the education director said, full of ridicule.

『It seems that some people who lack the brain don’t understand.』

『Your thoughts don’t matter.』

『In the first place, Academy City doesn’t accept students who are ‘Below’.』

『Well, since that’s what you’re talking about, please leave soon.』

Those who were dragging public opinion at the harsh words made faces as if they were displeased.

“This is a mouth that dares to be pierced…”

『Yes, yes, if you twist it, you will pass.』

“Awesome!”

“Only the subject of the low end of the student council…!”

It was then.

At that cry that came from somewhere, not only the head of education who was holding the microphone, but also the aspirants around and those who instigated them widened their eyes as if they were startled.

“Your year! Do you think you can survive like this!”

I wonder if I didn’t feel the atmosphere around me frozen.

The man who shouted while hiding in the crowd made a puzzled expression at the sound of laughter that followed.

『Ahaha! End! The end!』

“To be stupid.”

At the same time, Carmella, who was by Noah’s side, muttered briefly.

『Haa…. You must have been the second son of Count Chaplin, right? Of the beheight kingdom.”

The man who raised his voice at her words trembled.

『Count Chaplin’s family had a reputation for producing excellent spearmen for generations. But this time, it looks like the cutting edge is a bit wrong.”

“What is that…!”

『Since he has no skills, he only puts down others, but he has no possibility of developing. Not to mention, you don’t even know the opponent you’re underestimating… You’re a 0-point person.”

Think of it as an honor.

There are only a handful of people I rated with a score of 0.

At her words that followed, the man who had been quietly listening to the story shouted in anger.

“How dare you scorn the Chaplin family!”

『Unfortunately…. Even the head is pure. I’m not Count Chaplin, but I’m despising you, the second son of that place.”

“This…!”

At the same time as he said that, the instructors around him approached the spirited man.

Instructors who subdue men who go mad immediately afterward.

“Leave this! You guys dare to know who I am!”

“Okay. File commoners in the family register soon?』

“……Ha?”

“That’s interesting. It’s just that Chaplin and the like look down on Academy City’s student council.”

“…….”

Realizing that something was wrong, her second son hesitantly stopped her madness, and the thoughtful woman followed her.

『Well, it wouldn’t hurt to explain about us at this point. Those who passed will naturally find out.”

「No, but you really don’t know? Almost everyone seems to know except you.”

Noah tilted her head at her words, but everyone around him nodded vigorously and agreed.

“Hey, Carmella? Is the Student Council really that great?”

“…You really don’t know?”

Carmella, who had been nodding her head the same as those around her, was stunned to hear Noah’s voice beside her, widening her eyes.

I never thought there would be a clear-headed person other than that idiot!

“I’m so glad Noah passed.”

“…Carmella?”

“No, ignorance is not a sin, so it’s okay, Noah.”

Something seems to be rude…….

When Noah thought so, she puffed out her cheeks naturally, and Carmella, who let out a laugh, continued her explanation cautiously.

“Did you know that Academy City has considerable authority on the continent?”

“Yes, it is the most famous educational institution on the continent.”

“That’s right. The entire neutral nation of Medius was founded just for Academy City. That’s why each country cares so much about it, and it’s a situation where even powerful nations like the Imperial Empire like it.”

“…Is that enough?”

“That’s about it. Besides, given the characteristics of the warriors who are in charge of the forefront of the demons. Most of the heroes are raised through Academy City, so their position has grown even more. Now, even though quite a few countries are united, it’s burdensome to touch Academy City. Will.”

Because there are so many people who will rise up like bees if you touch them in one place. Of course, other countries will not stand still.

After saying that, Carmella put on a pitiful expression as she looked at her second son who was being beaten by her words in front of her.

“Among them, the general student council is in the same position as the officials of each country. Academy City, which has a higher status than most countries, goes against the planting of ‘head’ level personnel. It’s nothing like that.”

“Uh… So in a word?”

“That sucks.”

It was a very confusing statement.

“Oh, just finished.”

When Noah looked up at Carmella’s words, there were several tough-looking instructors grabbing his arms and lifting them up.

“What, what? Stop it! I’m not the kind of person to drop out of a place like this! How dare the student council do that!”

“Crazy, crazy.”

“Is that a diplomatic rudeness then?”

“Because they are the ones who have real power. As he said just now, they might really get out of the family register…”

With the second son disappearing leaving behind a short death sentence, there was not the slightest noise in the audience.

On the contrary, they seem to have noticed that the director of education is not in a good mood, so they avoid her gaze whenever she looks at her.

She looked around at them once and saw that no one seemed to meet her gaze, so she raised her microphone again.

『Then, I understand that there are no further objections. Please do not dispute the decision of our president.”

After saying that in a frosty tone, she came down from the podium and continued her words.

『Then, those who passed the ceremony will gather together.』

At her words, the playground became busy.

From the crowds gathering to one side under the instructor’s guidance, to the dropouts who shed tears as they headed for the exit, to those who stayed behind and resisted but were overpowered by the instructors and thrown out.

After a busy time, only real prospective students who passed the declaration ceremony were left on the playground.

“There’s still a lot left.”

“There were at least tens of thousands of people. Even if I thinned out once, there would be at least 10,000 more?”

“Hey…”

The moment when Noah was frightened by Carmella’s light words.

Doors opened on all four sides, and countless people began to fill in the outside of the playground.

“They are…?”

“It’s a scout.”

It was almost enough to give me goosebumps at first glance as they all looked at me with cold-hearted eyes.

Noah’s gaze passed countless times in an instant, covering her from head to toe. Carmella, who was beside her, kindly explained.

“They must have come from the academies inside the city.”

“Academies?”

Wasn’t it the first time I saw teachers at the entrance ceremony?

With that thought in mind, she looked at Carmella, and Carmella continued her explanation with a light smile.

“I think you know what I’m thinking, but you’ll see it at the entrance ceremony. But right now, since it’s a transfer ceremony, we’re looking for students to take to our academy.”

Since the entrance ceremony is only held at the academy to which you applied, it seemed like you were looking for talent to recruit into your academy at the transfer ceremony.

“Since most of the rogues have been weeded out once like this. From now on, I have decided that they are aspirants worth observing. If we leave a good impression here, even if we fail at the transfer ceremony or entrance ceremony, we may be scouted for another academy, so we are quite I tend to try to look good.”

“…I see.”

She had never heard such a detailed explanation, so she nodded her head coolly, tasting her strange feeling.

Saying that, Carmella also clenched and opened her fists with a tense expression, perhaps conscious of her surroundings.

『Then, let’s start the transfer ceremony from now on. First of all, please move to the line that suits your combat characteristics.』

“Warriors who use auras, come here!”

“The magicians who use magical powers come this way!”

“Come over here, scouts with excellent stealth and infiltration!”

“Those who excel in recovery and strengthening, please come to our buffer post!”

“This is the shaman class that uses barriers and summons!”

“Those who have special talents in spirits or other fields should come to special positions!”

At the same time, the playground became noisy like a marketplace.

Meanwhile, Noah, who had a troubled expression at the instructors’ shouts, asked Carmella.

“Carmella, where do you go when you’re talented in more than one thing?”

“Then you have to go with the one you are confident in. You don’t have to worry too much because you’re only judging a general tendency anyway.”

“I see.”

“I’m going to a special job, where will Noah go?”

Noah slightly frowned at Carmella’s words.

It wasn’t because there were many fields to go to.

Rather, it was because she did not have a field she was confident in.

‘I use both aura and magical power, but I also have divine power. However, it’s not enough to say ‘this is it!’…….’

Noah, who is talented in many ways, but has no clear strengths yet, falls into a dilemma where he can’t choose when there are many options.

‘Because there is nothing uniquely strong as it is applied in many fields. Trouble…….’

After a while, a voice announcing the time limit rang out.

“Whoops!”

Suddenly, Carmella is headed for a special job.

She may drop out if she delays any longer.

‘Ugh… ! What to do Shall we go to the warrior class and take the test? Or the Trial of the Wizard? Otherwise, taking the buffer job test…….’

As Noah cried at the conclusion that he couldn’t come to, no matter how much he thought about it, a profound voice suddenly came to his ears.

“Hmm, I think a warrior class would be nice.”

“A warrior job? Certainly. I learned something from my father, so a warrior… Job…?”

Noah stopped talking.

No, it would be fair to say that it stopped on its own.

“Aww. Awwow…”

I turned my head inadvertently at the unfamiliar voice, and he was there.

The student council president, who was watching quietly by her side, just waved her hand lightly when Noah’s gaze turned to her.

“Nice to meet you.”

“……!”

Right after that, Noah, recognizing the student council president, stepped back from her with great momentum.

It was the moment when my heart, which had calmly subsided, started beating violently again.
