Academy’s Genius Tamer Episode 52
“pho… I will give up.”
“Aww! I almost died!”
“The difficulty is crazy… .”
“Hey, is this something you made to break?”
sucks.
Professor Grint gave a brief click as each student was kicked out of the exam room.
“Everyone is worse than I thought. It’s not a test that will come out yet.”
“That’s it. The difficulty level of this test is tough, I think it was appropriate, Professor.”
“right?”
“Yes, of course.”
Assistant Professor Selene, who was sitting next to Professor Grint, muttered to himself as he satisfactorily satisfies him.
‘It was really difficult. Do you really think this is easy?’
From the point of view of her assistant professor, this was a nonsensical test.
Guys with a weak mentality will leave right away from their mental strength, and those with a good mentality will go out by pouring out all their magical powers.
Some even stumbled and fell into lava and ended the test in vain.
In general, if it dropped like this, I would have doubted the difficulty of the test, but Professor Grint was not.
Due to his picky personality, the guy who was absurdly eliminated from the first gate would have been close to failing.
After about 50 minutes passed, Professor Grint put his back on his back and slowly stepped out.
I was planning to check the screen to see how the students are holding up.
just as expected.
‘It’s miserable.’
There was no special number for the guys who had endured until now.
He was doing his best to conserve the remaining magical power as much as possible while fighting fiercely with the fire horses.
Because of that, there were many cases where mental strength was falling faster than physical strength.
“aah!”
Another one just popped out.
“You did a good job, but I’m sorry.”
“Huh… Ugh. It’s too difficult.”
“It’s because you’re not good enough.”
“That, that… .”
Professor Grint raised the fallen student and moved on to the next examination room.
Up until now, I was frowned upon at the level of serious students, but it was okay here.
“Oh, this one has survived a lot.”
Even with 10 minutes left, I noticed that the students were still holding out in a stable way.
Natalie is always running around the field with a bright personality.
Although she was not born with a talent that would have caught the eye of Professor Grint, her positive personality made Professor Grint’s expressionless expression occasionally.
While fighting the fire, Natalie drew the water with her unobtrusive eyes.
While cooling off, prepare to attack slowly.
She had an advantage because she was a water wizard, but seeing other students with similar conditions wander, it’s not just because of that.
Professor Grint stopped his steps and sighed in admiration.
[Health 18%. 80% mental strength. 9% of magic power.]
Despite the poor environment with single-digit magical power, his mental strength was higher than any other student he had ever seen.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was enduring with pure mental strength.
The remaining time is 7 minutes.
Professor Grint smiled contentedly.
“This will be enough for me.”
“I am not an ordinary student.”
bum bum.
Professor Grint took a couple more steps.
“Are you an Adela student?”
“You’re good from the start, my friend.”
Adela is no different. Burying the fire with the least amount of magical power.
A tectonic shift that seems to require enormous magical power on the surface. Adela used her magic effectively in a calm manner.
Plus, Adela was blocking the heat by levitating the stone I was sitting on a little.
This is an advanced magic that applied a few more steps to the basic magic that Professor Grint taught me in class.
The remaining stones cover the lava to minimize the risk of falling and block the fire by pushing it into the lava.
The strategy focused on defense rather than offense was impressive.
Professor Grint shook his head, fiddling with the tip of his wand.
This is next.
“One hour?”
Professor Grint frowned, then stopped as if possessed.
Professor Grint, a disciple who stood out in the continuation, could not pass by.
“Are you doing well, I’m a little worried.”
Tamer Siha Han who took the Red Dragon.
In fact, the first gate is quite unfavorable for Han Si-ha.
It’s amazing that you’re still holding out.
There was a concern that Basil’s attack, which mainly focused on fire, would further disturb the tamer’s mental power, and since the space is so narrow, movement is restricted if there are two of them.
But why?
[Health 74%. 75% mental strength. 34% of magic power.]
It must have been that the mana was used quite efficiently, and the state of his physical and mental strength was very relaxed.
“In what way… .”
Professor Grint looked up at the screen and paused again.
‘aah, go away!’
‘Huh… Ugh. Well, it’s so tight!’
Siha Han sits alone and meditates while the other students are struggling.
‘Oh, that’s cool. Basil, lie down too.’
‘Coo!’
Now until I fall asleep.
Professor Grint burst into laughter without realizing it at the seemingly casual expression on his face, as if he had come to a summer resort.
A solid wall of ice surrounding Han Si-ha.
As white smoke continued to rise on the surface of the wall where the flames touched, it seemed cool inside.
Are you keeping yourself warm by locking yourself in the freezer?
Professor Grint shook his head and predicted the magic circle that Si-ha Han would have drawn.
“I must have learned only the Air Shield… .”
A new magic that Professor Grint didn’t teach, or that doesn’t appear anywhere else.
‘How to implement a solid magic circle that will not collapse, and furthermore, how to implement advanced magic one step ahead with these basic magics. This is what I have been teaching you over the last two months.’
He recited and recited it many times, but none of the students realized his teaching.
The more talented the friend, the more he was obsessed with higher class magic, and he tried to cast magic blindly.
A class for memorizing, not understanding.
However, Hansiha was different.
‘It’s possible because I fully understand it.’
Analyzed the principle of the air shield, and changed air, one of the four elements, into water.
Three air shields were interwoven there to create a three-dimensional barrier rather than a flat one.
A strong defensive wall that fire horses cannot attack.
I went inside and decided to just sit there and wait.
so clever
“I hadn’t even thought about it until now.”
“You mean that student?”
“Yeah, could you have solved this problem like that?”
“… I can’t seem to figure it out like that. He probably chose the most effective way to fight fire horses.”
Professor Grint sympathized with the candid recognition of the assistant professor. Most likely, most of them would have given a similar answer.
Professor Grint let out a happy smile.
“Also… .”
My eyes weren’t wrong.
He’s definitely a special guy.
Maybe in this midterm evaluation… Maybe it will occupy an unexpected rank.
It was a moment when even Professor Grint was afraid of his rapid growth.
Beep–.
[The first test has ended.]
* * *
[The second test has ended.]
[The third test has ended.]
As each element’s ultimate gateway was completed one by one, the number of students decreased noticeably.
Survivors who thought that the next would be easy just because they passed the first gate of great competition were greatly embarrassed.
Seeing the students dropping out at such a rapid pace, Professor Grint sighed and checked the number of people.
In the meantime, his gaze was always on Han Si-ha.
“Also… .”
I was worried about it, but I didn’t have to.
In the judgment of Professor Grint, he was a talented person with superior strategic ability rather than a direct attack.
That’s why he didn’t know if a job called a tamer would be a better fit for him.
I felt like I was acting after meticulously calculating how to attack to get eaten and how to increase my chances of survival.
Isn’t that something a fifteen-year-old student could think of?
“It sounds like you have a really good head.”
It uses Basil to reinforce combat power and calculates the distribution of stamina.
In the battle under the sea, he took the lead instead of Basil, who greatly reduced his magic power in one attack as an attribute penalty.
After walking step by step like that, we arrived at the last gate.
Following the second and third gates, the final exam is being taken with ease.
The ultimate element of the final gateway is air.
It was an extreme situation where you had to survive by minimizing movement in an oxygen-poor environment.
In particular, because of fear, the mental power will be depleted at the fastest rate.
“her.”
Professor Grint checked Han Si-ha’s condition and burst into laughter.
She has the same mental power as Natalie, an icon of infinite positivity.
“selenium.”
“Yes, Professor.”
“Remember that student’s name. Because one day you will become a tamer representing the empire.”
At Professor Grint’s definitive words, assistant professor Selen opened her eyes wide.
It was a compliment he had never heard of in his years of working with him.
No, it was a compliment from Professor Grint, who was not easily spit out to any student.
At the very least, it’s about 2 years or less.
There was only one other student that Professor Grint really commended, and there was one more.
It’s not anyone else, so Hanshi?
It was a different time than last year, but Selen was still hard to comprehend.
‘Is that still good?’
I don’t know if I should celebrate the birth of a genius recognized by Professor Grint, or feel sorry for myself for not being able to keep up with a 15-year-old student no matter how many years I try.
Selene, an assistant professor, thought about that, and smiled strangely on the corner of her mouth.
That was then.
“A tamer representing the empire?”
“uh… uh?”
It was not only Selen, but also Professor Grint, who were surprised by the sudden sound of words coming from behind.
Professor Grint belatedly bowed his head with a look of great bewilderment.
‘No, why are you here?’
Dean Ernest, walking with his back, looked at Professor Zigsi Grint and asked.
There was some dignity in his words.
“Is that enough?”
“Because there are very few tamers representing the Empire. If he works hard, he can do it.”
“Huh, huh?”
Professor Grint burst out laughing and waved his hand.
Even if I thought so, I didn’t want to show all my cards in front of Dean Ernest.
It is the heart of every professor to steal talented students. Even if the opponent was not Professor Ernst, but Dean Ernst, Professor Grint had no intention of giving up the student I had longed for.
“It didn’t mean much, dean.”
“Hmm.”
However, it seemed that Dean Ernest already had a lot of meaning for Professor Grint’s words.
Dean Ernest slowly raised the high-precision glasses and muttered softly.
“It’s amazing. I didn’t know you’d say that.”
“ah.”
“I wish it would come true. At least I need him quite a bit right now.”
“… What do you mean by Han Si-ha?”
Professor Grint’s question was unfortunately buried in a loud alarm sound.
It was because the magic practice exam was over just in time.
Beep Big!
[The fourth test has ended.]
