Chapter 22 – Interim Assessment

Day 1 of the Midterm Assessment at Philos Academy.

The test schedule for each class is different in detail, but on the first day, the written test is taken first.

There is no subject that does not require theory.

The Aura class, which trains all martial arts, also covers the theory, history, and strategy of each martial art.

If it’s blacksmithing or alchemy, knowledge about materials and technology theory.

There will be no subject with a small proportion of handwriting.

Especially if it’s a magic class where a faithful theory is considered to be the backing of skill.

“Hmph, it seems that this year, the exam was appropriate for the profundity of magic.”

Professor Malek of the public magic class.

He glanced at the students who were all white in front of the test papers and nodded in satisfaction.

At this level, it should be a test for those who handle the highest magic.

“If you’ve always been exploring the depths of magic, it won’t be such a difficult problem.”

To the grunting students, Professor Malek spoke as if he were scolding them for their indolence.

The students’ expressions look like pigeons hit by stones, but they don’t really care.

It’s the fault of the kids who can’t solve it.

“I’m sure you explained it in class.”

Although the explanation was given, most of the test questions were deepening and applying the theories taught, so it was a problem that would be difficult for inexperienced students.

‘What about that?’

Professor Malek snorted.

‘The answer is to seek profundity and derive it through talent and passion. If I can’t solve this, there’s no chance of success as a wizard.’

It is natural that the problem is difficult.

As the best educational institution in the empire, in order to nurture talented people, it is appropriate to submit difficult questions worthy of its dignity as exam questions.

Above all, you must be able to raise such a problem to be qualified as a professor.

Professor Malek thought so sincerely, and smiled contentedly.

‘More than anything… … Even that kid would have a hard time at this point.’

Actually, this is the real heart.

Even the person himself didn’t realize it, but the words about dignity were just an excuse.

Professor Malek’s gaze was directed to one side of the exam hall.

dark-haired boy.

draft.

That cheeky warlock kid.

‘If this is the case, you won’t be able to solve it either. bantling!’

previous humiliation.

I don’t even think about personal revenge. It wasn’t that I was terribly scared.

Even if a professor fights with a student, it is only a loss of face.

But this is a test.

As if it was natural, Xian wanted to take the public magic class test.

I guess so. In addition to the black magic class, Xian has to take three more class tests.

In the process, there was only an implicit collusion between professors of other classes other than public magic.

‘And of course you had no choice but to choose this test.’

Since black magic is also a type of magic, it would be the right choice to try to score points by taking the common magic test.

That is why Professor Malek put his heart and soul into the exam questions.

While firmly determined to come up with a problem that no black magician could solve.

‘Realize that it’s different from trivial black magic, you kid!’

… … In reality, most of the students in the public magic class were also in despair without being able to solve it, but it probably didn’t bother him at all.

‘okay! yes!’

What does Xian do after confirming the difficult problem with his whole body?

He didn’t say anything, but he looked over the problem first.

He tilts his head, takes out a pen, and pretends to tap the desk lightly.

is to worry

‘okay! Of course I can’t solve it!’

Confident of his victory, Malek smiled in delight.

If anyone listened to his thoughts, they would have raised strong questions about the meaning of winning with such a petty act.

Xian scribbled something quickly.

About 5 minutes.

Then, as it is, I close the test paper and lie face down on the desk.

‘I gave up!’

There is no way that you can solve the test questions that you put your heart and soul into in just 5 minutes.

As a result of having several jockeys who were about to graduate solve it for verification of the test question, it was a difficult problem that even those guys struggled to wring their hair out.

If so, Xian must have given up on solving the problem.

I guess I’ll just turn off the wrong answer in moderation.

‘Hmph, that’s your limit.’

Satisfied, Professor Malek looked away.

I’ll go into great detail when I’m grading where and what nonsense you scribbled.

“draft! You son of a b*tch!”

… … It must have been a very trivial thing for Professor Malek to scream in humiliation when he saw Xian’s answer sheet that night.

Because the answer was absolutely perfect.

Expected test questions for common magic classes.

Upon receiving that information, Melissa, a senior ghost, said this.

(Professor Malek in the public magic class now seems a bit naive. Maybe he didn’t make the problem difficult this way?)

What he showed with such expectations was such a difficulty that even his seniors who were about to graduate would scream.

No matter how much I wanted to be this naive, it wouldn’t be a wrong prediction if I recalled the previous black magic scroll.

‘Come to think of it, depending on the class you belong to, the other class tests were difficult.’

It would be very unfortunate for the author, Professor Malek, but he had already assumed this situation.

And I saw the expected question paper.

‘Wow~ I’ll turn… … .’

Even if I had prepared myself, I thought it would be a headache to solve it.

‘After all, it’s a shame I brought these… … .’

My goal right now is to be the senior freshman.

Of course, if you can’t solve this level of problem, you won’t be able to achieve that goal.

‘Then where should I release it?’

Even if I used Melissa’s advice and anticipation problems, I could probably solve 70% of them using them.

Well, that alone would secure the target score.

‘Isn’t that enough this time?’

Let’s use other things too.

Of course a trick.

‘Because I know the standards for cheating.’

Of course, you can’t secretly look at other people’s answers, and you can’t receive answers from someone at the exam center.

If you use magic for that, you’ll get it right away. The method using Emily is also blocked.

‘But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to use.’

There are things that are not regulated.

For example, the worn-out pen that I now take out.

One of the useful things I managed to find while sneaking in and out of the black market recently!

《Pen of Expectations》

It is an item that is effective only in the Trial event.

its effect.

‘An effect that gives hints for choosing the options in question during the game days.’

An item that teaches you the probability of which problem to shoot.

However, when it becomes a reality, the usage is slightly different.

It helps in choosing valid values, probabilities.

Triggering the item reacts when choosing a valid value for the answer.

‘In short, by using this, I can print a valid number when calculating.’

It has a big impact on calculations.

You can choose which number to choose from the calculation formula, which is the most appropriate.

It is possible to respond to calculation expressions that do not know English.

In addition to that, the accessories worn on the body and the items hidden and equipped were all things that could respond to probabilities and test events.

‘Now I must be the incarnation of filming… … .’

If you can choose all the numbers through items, you can respond to all kinds of problems.

‘Because there was no regulation prohibiting the carrying of such things.’

Although the fact that such an item exists is not known.

I don’t have the heart to brag about this to others.

Because in the future, I have to use it carefully.

Solve the problem quickly and lie down as it is.

I didn’t sleep well because I was strategizing the whole time.

After solving the problem quickly and taking a deep breath, I left the test room.

Somehow, I felt dirty because Professor Malek seemed to be looking at me with a happy look, but I don’t like the expression on that man’s face right now.

‘First of all, let’s solve the test questions in this way.’

As we moved to the next test center, I told Emily my current policy.

‘Most tests in public magic classes are theoretical calculations. If this is the case, I can handle pretty much any calculation.’

(I still thought of the absurd way….)

There are other tests that ask questions about the history of magic and settings, but that doesn’t matter.

Those are things that were mentioned even in the game days, so I have the confidence to solve pretty much anything.

More than anything, it’s more important than writing.

‘I just need to get better results in practical skills.’

I’ll miss it too

* * *

In the afternoon, the practical test of the public magic class begins.

The practical evaluation of public magic classes is largely divided into two topics.

The first is to evaluate the ability to design magic demonstrations or simulated artifacts.

Complete a magic that meets a given task or design an artifact using given materials and get points for it.

‘Either way I have nothing to bow to.’

Not far behind in this part. There are plenty of kids who have a better sense than me.

So, how do you make sure you get the skill points?

‘As expected, this is the only one.’

The second subject of the practical test I chose.

magic battle.

After all, the most important use of magic is in combat.

Whether it’s a war or a battle between individuals, magic is an indispensable key element.

Of course, I can’t help but rate it.

“Is the subject of the practical evaluation a mock battle… … .”

The rules aren’t particularly complicated.

The named student only had to come out and use only magic to compete with the opponent in front of the supervising professor.

‘… … It won’t be easy, though.’

To be honest, it might be a little unfavorable for me.

It is a test of a common magic class.

Of course, only skills belonging to the common magic category are allowed.

familiar? Of course you can’t call

Fisting? Will you be praised for punching in the magic test? I don’t even want to try it.

(Is that okay?)

‘It’s okay~, it’s okay. I’m confident.’

I came up to the exam room without feeling any pressure.

It seems that the opponents of sparring are taken by the seniors of the common magic class.

A female student equipped with a protective robe and staff.

I don’t know the name.

“It’s called Xi’an.”

“draft… … . Black magic class. huh. I checked. Etox from the 82nd class. I’m in charge of taking your test.”

“Please take good care of me.”

Shilin-senpai nods, confirms that I am the correct one, and then explains the rules.

“Compete only with common magic class spells. The suspension will be either surrender or at my discretion.”

“All right.”

The scoring criterion is to see how efficient they are in combat using common magic class formulas.

I checked the rules again and nodded repeatedly saying I understood.

“Tell me if it’s dangerous. … … I will stop immediately.”

“hahahaha, don’t worry about that. senior.”

It’s only natural for the other person to say something that seems to be a little condescending.

There is usually a big difference between the skills of the above jockeys and the skills of freshmen.

Of course, that’s where you have to look.

“Then it’s a test, so do it in moderation.”

“… … okay. I’ll do it in moderation.”

Which one are you looking at?

I didn’t have to say such a cheeky thing out of my mouth.

Silin waited quietly, not moving. Of course, the player concedes.

How you behave in the first place will also be evaluated.

“Then let’s begin.”

I quickly build up my mana. Since it is necessary to use public magic only, it is replaced with blue mana instead of magic power and emits it.

“… … Were you a black magician?”

“That’s right, a black magician. Well, a test is a test, so I deliberately replaced it with normal magic.”

“Is the displacement this much density?”

The test hasn’t even started yet, but it’s clear that he’s already surprised.

Come to think of it, few of the freshmen understand the art of substituting magical properties.

‘It’s comfortable for me if I’m surprised by such trivial things.’

Let’s think that every move is the criterion for evaluation.
