Chapter 23 – How to Conquer the Special Test

End of midterm evaluation.

Special test on the 6th day.

Before the final exam started, all freshmen were waiting in a designated area.

A tense, yet somewhat exhilarating atmosphere.

In any world, on the last day of exams, the atmosphere is bound to be somewhat chaotic.

(I’m going to play after the exam is over.)

(I can sleep soundly now.)

don’t say that Do you have an ominous feeling?

I took a seat in the back, keeping an eye on the mood of the students.

‘Is there any suspicious guy?’

(Xian looks the most suspicious.)

‘That’s correct. … … After all, is it difficult to find out in this state?’

Day 6 test.

It is certain that something will happen.

I wish I could interfere as much as possible, but I couldn’t even notice that something was about to happen.

not anxious though.

‘We’re anticipating a few cases, so if we see any signs, we can confirm it.’

No problem.

Thinking about that, I decided to take a little break. If you’re exhausted before the exam even starts, there’s no answer.

“… … draft?”

Just then someone calls me.

It was Celidia.

Come to think of it, it’s been a few days. I hardly ever saw his face because the subjects for the exams he took did not overlap.

Because he taught me things to be taught in advance, and also shared the expected problems that I had in my hands.

So you know you did well. Celidia was also aware of that level, so it seemed like she put in effort on her own.

“Did you do well on the test? Celidia.”

“… … I think I did everything I could.”

He says it in a somewhat obsequious manner.

did you try? Aren’t you giving up?

Come to think of it, it seems that the future of this guy and Alfine depends on the results.

Once you’ve supported me, you’ll be fine.

“What about Xian?”

“Not perfect.”

It is perfect.

It’s not perfect, to the point of worrying about useless things.

“… … What’s going on?”

“Nothing. I am just thinking about the exam.”

Apparently, Celidia felt something out of place. I feel good.

“You look wary.”

“Well, once the test starts, everyone is a competitor.”

At first, I was so confused.

(Sian, come to think of it, can I not talk to that cat lady this time?)

‘Not yet.’

There was no reason not to ask for help.

But I didn’t tell anyone about Deolkin’s plot.

One exception is Professor Daniel.

It’s not that I don’t believe them.

This is because I wanted to avoid, as much as possible, getting things twisted by making fun of my mouth.

‘What will happen must be trampled down on the spot.’

No need to increase the variable.

Also, there was a reason I didn’t say anything apart from that.

‘Perhaps if one of my thoughts is correct, it’s best not to say it right now.’

For the time being, she looked around and Emily didn’t say anything more.

“By the way, Xian, where have you been?”

“What are you talking about.”

“I know you can’t use the black magic class dormitory.”

“… … ah!”

“Where have you been?”

I didn’t say that either. No, you’d be right in saying I couldn’t. I don’t even have a corner to flirt with, so I’m reluctant to say it strangely.

Actually, I was staying at a classmate’s house, then moved to the maid’s hideout, and I’m just rolling around like that.

So, did you interfere with his family situation?

… … Well, I’d rather not talk.

“I was living in a room in a suitable place.”

“… … ??”

I’m kind of giggling

what, something… … I feel like I’m saying something wrong.

I wanted to change the topic and move on to talking about exams.

“I guess you’re not very motivated about the special exam?”

“bothered.”

Celidia shook her head as if fighting was annoying.

“Can I get enough of it?”

“No. Be motivated.”

“If you’re motivated?”

It’s easier for this guy to motivate me. That way there will be fewer competitors.

“Then, should I give you a prize for good results? how is it?”

“… … I want to.”

something to motivate But didn’t I tell you what I was giving you?

‘It’s okay. I’ll think about it later.’

(My sister gives advice, but then it will be a big problem.)

‘Okay. With something like this.’

A voice commanded the freshmen of the 83rd class to be quiet, as if the time had come.

Dean Philef.

It seems that he is trying to explain himself by revealing himself.

“It took a lot of effort to take the exam for five days. … … No, it’s still too early to say this.”

Because the test is still pending.

“There is only one test left for you guys. What qualities are most needed in a hero?”

Wisdom, connections, money, and so on will be needed.

But what is most needed in this world.

“I will not say that strength is everything. That’s a very stupid word. So tell me Still, heroes need strength.”

The purpose of the special test is to measure combat power.

Who is the strongest among freshmen? Trying to make an evaluation that is hard to ignore even though there is nothing special.

“Prove your skills in this test.”

After the dean’s declaration was over, the exams finally began.

The test site was opened and we moved there without exception.

* * *

The rules of the special test on the 6th day were not special.

‘Survival battle between students.’

In a pre-arranged artificial forest, students are randomly transported here and there.

If you walk around there and knock down other students you come across, you’ll be eliminated.

Of course, you can’t kill, and you only have to break the proof you have.

It seems that students who drop out are safely kicked out of the exam hall.

‘I used to actively knock down students during my gaming days.’

After all, winning a battle would drop a certain amount of gold coins.

… … Is that cheating?

(What now?)

‘For now, I will faithfully act according to the test rules.’

You can’t even drop out. Above all, apart from the case, you must properly respond to the test.

‘Let’s go around in moderation and defeat any idiots we encounter.’

(Hmm, it must be hard to find it… Can my sister help me instead?)

You don’t have to.

(Are you trying to set a trap?)

That’s not bad either, but you don’t have to go through the trouble of doing that.

‘Because I don’t have to walk around hurting my feet.’

In this kind of test, I know all the ideas that other children will do.

Especially what some nerds think.

(oh?)

“… … I was afraid to speak.”

It was around the time I was walking around as if I was taking a leisurely walk.

I noticed the signs.

It wasn’t one.

two three… … . Well, maybe seven or so.

You got caught. I tried to hide my smile and for now, I spoke to the guys.

“Come out because you got caught. Or should I burn the whole hiding place?”

For now, a healer is also waiting outside, and the new protective spells are hung on the school uniform itself, so it won’t be fatal with moderate magic.

Let’s say I’m not kidding as I smoke a piece of black salt on my fingertips.

“… … Tch, you look like a cheeky bastard.”

It’s a familiar face.

Willot. He must have been the one who talked nonsense to me at the beginning of the semester and then broke down with me.

I wanted to shake his hand to say hello, but I don’t think it’s necessary.

Guys popping out after Willot.

seven in total.

“It’s good to have a lot of friends. I envy you for sticking together even through a test like this.”

“You speak well. The dark-haired one.”

I still haven’t fixed his tone.

Well, I’m thrilled again.

In a sense, he’s really faithfully recreating his role in the game.

Attract students and create a many-to-one situation to ensure victory points are extorted.

“It’s quick to get together, did you talk about it in advance?”

“When I said it was to get you eliminated, everyone obediently followed.”

Willot laughs cheekily.

The others, though not as clearly malevolent as this one, seemed to see joining in as a clever way to eliminate a potential competitor.

“Are you going to say it’s gross?”

“no. Because there is no such thing as not cooperating with the rules. That’s a great way.”

Clap clap clap, I even clapped my hands and praised it as very commendable.

Yes, to survive in this harsh society, cooperation is necessary.

me? I hate that kind of thing because I’m an outcast.

I’m still at a better age to be alone.

Originally, when you get older, being together is tiring… … . Ugh.

“Well, jokes aside. … … Are you hanging out with Willot, friends?”

I laughed leisurely and gave a sermon to the guys who looked like they would attack me at any moment.

“Why do you think we didn’t add a non-cooperation clause to the rules?”

“… … What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Because it doesn’t make any sense.”

head count?

That’s a great tactic.

But what kind of world is this?

“This is a world that makes that number meaningless.”

It doesn’t mean anything if you try to do something that isn’t restricted by the rules.

I stretched out my arms, mocking those who didn’t understand.

Guys who don’t understand what’s going on.

If I chant magic, the unique phenomenon will be revealed, but the only thing that flows out of my outstretched hand is the wide-spreading magic.

“You bastard!”

Only the other three, including Willot, noticed and avoided it.

Although he is a jerk, it means that he is not blind at all.

“It’s fast. … … The rest of the ignorant guys go to sleep.”

Simultaneously with the action of clasping your hands.

The guys who didn’t notice it rolled their eyes and fainted.

“You bastard! what are you doing… … .”

“don’t worry. It’s because mana is rapidly draining and you feel something like dizziness.”

Mana suddenly drained from the blood, and the body felt abnormal.

Did you say acute mana deficiency?

“It’s surprisingly nothing.”

As soon as I removed my hand, the Magi that I had scattered returned with their blue mana collected.

“A monster… … .”

“Hey, you’re sad. You show off your precious talent after a long time.”

It’s a skill I saw and learned while dealing with my duplicate in the trial of the black magic class.

I figured out the principle, and energy drain was an ability I could acquire through Emily.

If so, I couldn’t help but use it.

There were just perfect specimens, so I tried it out and tried it.

《Learn Energy Cracking.》

Well, looks good.

However, it seems that a little more mastery is needed when you see that guys at the level of Willot notice the discomfort and avoid it.

I thought about posting it using points, but I put it on hold. First of all, I learned it as a trivial skill.

“And I will return the mana that was stolen to you.”

It’s too insignificant to absorb, so I don’t like it.

I condensed the collected mana and threw it roughly at the remaining guys.

Mana Spring.

Mana itself has no physical attack power, but if it is gathered at a certain density and exploded, it can push the air and create a shockwave-like effect.

Fain!

“aaagh!”

The guys who barely managed to get the shock out and screamed.

‘It’s surprisingly fun.’

These bad guys are really good.

When you counterattack, the reaction is very sticky, so you can feel the taste of paying back.

“Did you see it? No matter how many people you put together, you can’t be defeated by a person with enough strength.”

“You bastard! What are you staring at! Hurry up and get eliminated!”

When Willot gritted his teeth, they cast magic at me.

“… … Because it’s useless.”

Aim for the timing when their magic is cast, and use the shadow move to move over their heads.

Relatively defenseless while casted magic is just being cast.

Because the moment the magic is fired, you can’t properly defend yourself.

“Relearn the magic war properly and come back.”

As it is, black salt falls on their heads.

Quaang!

The black heat soars and knocks out the swept students at once.

“You poor bastard!”

Willot, barely freed from the force of the flames, tried to attack by using attack magic.

“So that’s why it doesn’t work.”

Even before his magic was fully completed, my first fist struck him and canceled the magic.

“Keugh!”

“Don’t look at me like this as a punishment for a mischievous prank. … … Try harder next time.”

Finally, he shouted something, but he didn’t listen.

As it is, the black flame that exploded at close range blew away the guy, and instead, only fragments of the shattered token fell to the floor.

“And thank you for the points.”

It is only when there are idiots dedicated like this that one can spend their school days worthwhile.
