NOVEL NEXT chapter 10
10 – 3. Test (4)-Accident.
“……”
Latina’s eyes went cold.
I have two questions here.
The first is why she is holding thick books in her hands at the Latin Nagai playground.
The second is why she is staring at me with such severe eyes.
If Latina’s eyes looked at me before and were like looking at uncleanable slush, now her eyes are like looking at radioactive waste.
It’s salty and cold.
Above all, Latina at this point was very busy.
She’s going through a hard time just preparing for the upcoming festival. Can you afford to come here?
I can roughly guess the reason.
“What’s going on here?”
“What do you care?”
Latina cut off her question in one breath, as if to disregard her.
She could not have been a very picky woman anyway.
“Doesn’t the fact that you’ve been looking at me from a while ago mean that you have something you want to say?”
“So much confidence. To be able to say that even in that state. What do I have to say to you?”
No, you definitely have something to say to me.
Latina will deny it, but I know her better than I thought she did. 23,000 Hours is not a small amount of time.
What do you eat every morning and why do you always wear ear plugs?
How tall are you?
For instance, the slight trembling of her left eye and the frown on her face indicate that she is hesitating.
That’s too much.
However, not opening a conversation first must mean that the proper place was not prepared.
I said to Richet, who was looking at us with interest.
“Riché, thank you for the water, but move away.”
She stared at me with an expression of leaking steam.
But after a while she spat on the ground and went away.
The value of spit was determined by whoever spit it. I stared in vain at the land overflowing with life.
“Tsk, I thought it was going to be fun. I’m going~”
“Riché is gone, so tell me now. I don’t have time.”
“…Do you think it’s weird?”
“That’s a ridiculous quibble. If you have nothing to say, I’ll go.”
“…..That.”
“Don’t bother others.”
Latina just hesitated with expressionless eyes.
Seeing that even though he did this much, he didn’t say anything, did he actually have something to say to Richie, not me?
I thought so and turned around.
“……I’m here to say thanks.”
I couldn’t help laughing inwardly.
Yes, you should.
Silly Latina is always an honest person.
“Thank you, what is it?”
“Ugh…”
“As I said, the more you express gratitude, the more accurately it is expressed.”
“I know..?”
Paud deuk. Up
I think any further provocation is a bit risky.
There was a grinding noise at the Al. You never know when you’ll get bitten.
“Thanks to the information you provided, I was able to save prospective test takers who had almost gone missing. And, although I absolutely cannot believe it, I heard from the person concerned that he even saved Miss Raonjena from a wolf.”
“I didn’t specifically save him. My life was in danger, so I killed him first.”
“Yes. I think it happened by accident.”
“……”
Latina I nodded her head in agreement for the first time.
The main character was a bit clumsy, but he was a kind senior, which was really deplorable.
“So that’s what you mean?”
She sighed tiredly.
“No. I’m really sorry… This is a kind of ‘debt’. As you may know, the student council,”
“Debt must be repaid as soon as possible. Resentment doubled.”
“…Huh, I thought I forgot everything, didn’t I?”
Latina brushed her hair with a rather surprised expression.
She then scratched her head as if she was frustrated.
“So, I have something to pay you back. Say what you want, but within the line.”
That’s what I wanted, I looked at Latina.
She hated Dyers, but she had a hard time too.
To be precise, there was a strong feeling of reluctance to face each other.
Thinking about it, it was a bit of an odd situation.
A situation in which a junior who hates a senior (even though she wouldn’t treat her as a senior) asks the senior to tell him what he wants.
Even if the genre was different, it would be a big deal.
But there is no reason to get involved with someone who hates me.
Relationships are like paper, you can peel a dent, but you can’t undo it.
Above all, there is nothing to gain from Latina, and there is nothing particularly necessary in the current situation.
It doesn’t help.
I finished my thoughts and opened my mouth.
“Don’t look stupid. I don’t want anything.”
“If you’re a piece of trash, of course you’d like that kind of request… What?”
“No need. Go and prepare for the festival.”
After hearing my words, Latina’s eyes widened and sharpened again.
“Pretending to be nice and righteous, Macisi’s skill is the same. Does anyone who knows that the student council ‘must’ pay back its debts?”
She seemed to have decided that she was making fun of herself.
There’s not much time left for the exam, but you’re being annoying.
I was going to skip it, but there was one thing that came to my mind.
Dyers’ luggage that was arbitrarily abandoned when he was expelled from the student council.
The memory of Dyers, who is not a modern person, was quite helpful in a situation where he confessed and kicked.
Since Dyers was a villain close to an extra, there was little information about him.
“If that’s the case, please find my belongings that I threw away then.”
“…The luggage I threw away at that time? Let’s find it…”
“I won’t accept the answer that it’s impossible. It’s definitely your side who owes it.”
“Ugh…”
“How long is the deadline?”
“There’s no need to overdo it. If you can’t find it, give up. I’m not looking forward to it anyway.”
Latina thought for a moment, then she nodded her head.
“Okay. I’ll bet the honor of the Sili family and I’ll definitely find it. Prepare yourself.”
After her words, Latina disappeared like the wind without saying goodbye to her.
Isn’t that just a threat?
.
The time to measure the students’ mana has begun.
As if Araña was annoying, she left her job to me and jumped out.
I remember the look in the children’s eyes when she introduced me as the class president.
“Why is he…?”
“Isn’t it because I looked closely earlier? After watching it, I honestly think I wrote the answer well..”
“Hey, it’s just cheating? How do you do that in one minute?”
What I have to do is check the mana of these guys.
My role was to be in charge of recording physical education time.
Damn Aranya.
The next time we meet, I’ll have to press down on the top of my head enough to make a noise.
With that thought in mind, she said to the female student who stood awkwardly in front of the scarecrow.
“Are you ready?”
“Oh, yes! I’ll do it!”
“[Concentration: Ice Lance].”
Purseo seoseok seoseok.
After finishing memorizing the spell, a spear of ice nearly 2m long pierced the scarecrow.
The effect was negligible. The spear pierced the scarecrow, but the scarecrow did not leave even a small hole, let alone scratch it.
“Next.”
“It’s ruined..!”
The female student couldn’t hide her disappointment and turned around screaming.
There were students who comforted me, and there were students who looked at me with a smile as if they were having fun.
Skill supremacy always gave birth to competition rather than friendship.
“Next, next, next.”
They continued to measure several times like that.
To be honest, the level wasn’t low, but it wasn’t high either.
The average is C grade, so the average mana should be around 30. The application was not very good.
Wherever you go, you will never get lost or suffer from job search difficulties, but there were no guys who could become combat mages.
It takes more than 10 seconds to use one skill.
“Next.”
In that way, only the last female student remained except for me.
A short stature with mint colored hair. It was a pretty, no, pretty face.
The girl walked very carefully, as if she had a timid personality. She
She somehow looked like she was hiding something.
“Are you ready?”
“Ugh, yes…”
With that said, the girl reached out her hand towards her scarecrow.
She seemed to be extremely nervous, and the female student kept shaking her body and breaking out in her cold sweat.
Her face was also very pale, and her eyes looked as if she was afraid of something and hesitated.
Grey eyes.
Grey eyes.
Grey.
…Those eyes are somewhere.
In the blink of an eye, the female student was memorizing her spell.
And her hand was smeared with white powder.
“…Wait.”
I finally realized the reason for the incongruity and opened my mouth.
However, there was no way my voice could reach the ears of the girl who was extremely nervous.
I’ve seen it in game items.
That is forbidden mana garuda, a type of ‘catalyst’ that maximizes the power of mana.
Although it allows the magic power to be strong from 2 to 10 times the normal power, there was a reason why it was forbidden.
Basically, mana has the characteristic of not attacking the person who handles it.
In short, there is no reason for a person who uses a fireball to get burned by the magic they cast.
However, what would happen if an external element, another ‘catalyst’, intervened in the mana and the spell was activated?
It means that you can take damage from the magic you wrote.
Moreover, the magic created that way couldn’t even be called ‘magic’.
Magic was, in the end, including ‘controlling’ one’s own mana. But if you use a catalyst, control. Mana management was almost impossible.
If you use mana powder, the possibility of anyone getting hurt here increases. Not to mention, Instructor Aranya is currently absent.
The female student closed her eyes tightly and memorized all her spells.
“Ahhhhh…”
“[Focus: Fire].”
It was a basic magic with very weak power, but it was no longer something that could be called ‘basic’.
There was no more time to hesitate.
