Academy’s Weapon Replicator chapter 194

Chapter 64 The Weakest

The test is conducted simultaneously throughout the first year.

So we needed a sizable space for all of our first-year students and seniors to test.

Constell had a place where it was possible.

“This is the field of Constell… … !”

“I heard that the environment changes freely depending on the situation and needs! What is the principle?”

The first graders talked with each other in an excited voice.

It was unusual for the first graders of Constell to experience the field for the first time after joint training, so it was unusual to see the field so quickly.

“The ability test is also the first transaction the student council president tried.”

“I heard that the student council in Constell hardly moves, but this time it must be a little different.”

Therefore, the recognition of the student council president among current first-year students was quite high. It was the first time the student council had hosted a school event of this size.

Surprisingly, the teachers favored the active movement of the student council president, Elin Evans. They too felt that Constell needed a change.

However, this is an event led by the student council.

Therefore, most of the process and management were also entrusted to the student council. The teachers only answered questions and provided minimal help, but they did not go out of their way.

“Nice to meet you.”

So today, the place where the first graders gathered, and the person who stood on the podium.

“This is Elin Evans, the interim student council president. Please.”

It was Elin.

The first graders who saw her looked surprised and stared blankly. They each held their own hearts and spoke to each other in small voices.

“That’s Elin-senpai… … .”

“I said he was a swordsman genius.”

“If I get a chance, I want to learn.”

Elin immediately grabbed the students with her own presence.

Her voice is soft and she speaks softly, but when she enters Constell, everyone knows what level Elin is.

It is revealed in the high level of skills he has as a swordsman, which is different from Mana and Auror.

“As I said before, you will be tested here. The test will go through several stages and will assess your ability in each situation. Please note that the results of this test will not be disclosed to others. It is not a test to give you a sense of inferiority, but a test to know the strengths and weaknesses of each student, and to complement and improve them.”

Most of the students were relieved by Elin’s words, and some were dissatisfied. The dissatisfied students were those who believed they were going to get high marks.

However, no matter how consistent their beliefs and abilities may be, this test will shatter their beliefs.

Elin said that the purpose was not to give a feeling of inferiority, but if there is a person who is arrogant, he will feel ashamed enough for himself.

“As I said before, the first test assesses your basic fitness and movement. Therefore, there are only various obstacles to the test. The seniors are waiting for you in the next test. If you are looking to compete against seniors, you will have to pass this first step first.”

At Elin’s words, the students nodded with tense faces. Stage 1 cannot meet upperclassmen.

If you fall here, it means you don’t deserve it. It would be very embarrassing to leave behind not seeing a senior.

“And one last word.”

Elin’s tone is as usual.

“I don’t know how you feel about taking this test.”

As always, he said in an indifferent tone, looking around the first graders.

“It won’t be as fun as you think.”

* * *

As Elin said, in the first stage, various obstacles stood in the way of the students.

The overview was simple. Reach the next level by solving the obstacles and problems presented by Constell.

In detail, it was largely divided into battle series and magic series.

In the case of the combat series, below is a pool full of rubber balls, or a ball pool, and students have to walk along narrow, bumpy paths that sometimes require climbing walls or jumping, avoiding obstacles.

If you accidentally step on your foot or get hit by an obstacle and fall into the pool, you will be eliminated. Even if you use magic, you will fail.

In the case of magic, several walls block them in front of them, and if you solve the problem, the wall opens and you move on to the next one. Most of the problems require mana manipulation, where Constell verifies mana manipulation, intuition, and pure intelligence capable of calculating circuits.

“Ahaha, what is this! It’s like a playroom.”

The first-year combat students were a little embarrassed when they first faced the first stage test.

The ball pool below, hammers and walls flying in the way of various obstacles were round and resilient, designed not to hurt children.

The magic series was no different. It has a cute design, and it doesn’t really interfere with solving problems.

In addition, the problem guidance voice was too kind and voice. For reference, the game’s female protagonist, Luna Freecell, participated in the voice guidance.

It was not unreasonable that they felt like a playroom. It’s actually designed that way.

Step 1 literally only verifies physical strength and functionality, and does not require special mental strength.

In other words, it completely excludes dangerous situations. Coping with the pressure of injury and death, and mental toughness, etc., will be fully verified in the next test.

However, many students did not need to worry about the next test.

“Uh, huh?”

“Ahh!”

Most of the combat students who fell and fell into the ball pool were

“Um, uh… … .”

“Okay… … .”

Most of the magic students who couldn’t break through the first level wall and were preoccupied with problems.

Although it is a basic skill test, this test is conducted in stages and separates those who fail and those who succeed.

So, even in the first stage, it is made so that there are people who fail. The design that looks like a playroom quickly makes you cry if you look down on it.

“difficult… … !”

When it was his turn, Diego Aiger, who opened the door to the first stage, stiffened his face as soon as he saw the obstacles.

The cute design didn’t even catch my eye. Hammers flying from left and right, the floor suddenly turning off, and the narrowing walls were so vicious.

Still, somehow it passed. Even if I climbed up, I stepped on the next step. Even if you don’t use your energy, you’ve accumulated enough training to handle body movements. You can do this to some extent.

“Hey!”

I stepped on the last step and vigorously opened the door to move on to the next step.

It has passed step 1.

“Okay… … uh?”

He felt relief and joy for a moment, but after seeing someone in front of him, he stopped.

Pielot, the most promising first-year prospect, was in front of him.

Pielot looked at Diego for a moment, then turned his attention away.

Dier looked around.

There were three other people inside besides Pielot. There was one male student of the combat type, and one male and female that looked like a magic type.

Doors that appeared to be the same as the level 1 exit we just passed through led to this room.

‘Is this the waiting room?’

As Dier envisioned, this is a waiting room where people who have passed Stage 1 stay for a while before moving on to Stage 2.

Dier looked around and saw the door leading to the second stage.

“Why don’t you go to the next level?”

Diego dared to ask Pielot. Pielot raised his eyebrows and tilted his head slightly. The words ‘Aren’t you me?’ were implied in those eyes looking at Dier.

“… … The door is locked.”

It was someone else who answered Dier. He was a little taller than Dier and had a bigger body. It was a reticent impression, but from Dier’s point of view, at least among them, he was more talkative.

“Perhaps we should wait until a certain number of people gather. And since you just came, it looks like it will be open soon.”

As soon as the man finished speaking, a beeping alarm sounded, followed by a shuddering metallic sound. The door seemed unlocked.

Dier was curious about it, so he asked the man.

“how did you know? It will open soon.”

“Don’t you know? When you become a pro, the most basic team composition is 5 people. The minimum number of people is three, but it is rare to move with only three people unless it is a very easy mission or if you are not confident in your skills.”

I see Dier nodded gently. The man looked at Diego as pathetic as he didn’t know basic information, but he didn’t care.

“… … omg! Then I’m the last of them all!”

“… … .”

Others leaked about Dier, who had just realized the obvious fact. He even walked without a word.

If five people enter together, there is a high probability that they will move as a team, but no one seemed to have any intention of demonstrating teamwork.

Pielot walked to the front and opened the door to the second stage.

From here, seniors welcome them. Who is it? It’s level 2, so it won’t be a very difficult opponent.

In each of their thoughts, it was an unexpected person who greeted them.

“Uh, are you here?”

A dark-haired male student, wearing a necklace studded with black jewels, with his arms draped in black straps hanging down, greeted them while sitting on a black chair.

Eyes that look tired and drowsy, and the body sitting on the chair is drooping as if sleeping in that state.

They recognized the man at a glance. I had never seen his face in person, but I knew immediately. He said that he would know right away just by looking at his eyes and face, and he was right.

Dier muttered involuntarily.

“… … sloth… … .”

“I’m sorry, but I have a name. Please don’t call me that.”

The magical girl next to her uttered a tense expression with a firm expression on her face.

“Sloth’s frontier… … !”

At that, Frontier covered her face with her hand. Still, the tired look grew stronger.

“Could you please stop calling me like that?”

I feel like I am one of the Four Heavenly Kings. There was no point in selling.

“Is your senior a second-level test partner?”

“right. It’s stage 2, so you don’t have to be too nervous. The guys who are waiting in stage 3 or 4 are much more difficult.”

When I said this, I felt as if I had said something like ‘I am the weakest among us’.

“The rule of step 2 is simple.”

As he spoke, Frontier pointed a finger over his head.

“Hey, can you see the key?”

The five of them looked up and checked the key. The key hung from a nail in the wall, and was tall enough for two people. It was tall enough to touch lightly if you were using an auror.

“If you reach that, you pass. You can move on to the next step.”

“… … Can you touch it?”

“okay. It doesn’t have to be your hand. Whether you use magic, shoot arrows, or throw any weapon you have, you’re done. Of course I won’t touch that key. I won’t even move the key.”

“… … ?”

“Oh, and I won’t get up from this chair.”

The faces of the five people were strangely distorted at Frontier’s explanation. The key looked like it could fit anything right now.

Besides, if you say you won’t get up from a chair, how the hell do you ignore that kind of test?

“… … You’re pretty confident, senpai.”

The one I spoke to this time was a male student in the magical field. He openly expressed his displeasure at the thought that Frontier was being looked down upon.

“Do not misunderstand. I never intended to do this either.”

Frontier said with an indifferent expression.

“Initially, the condition was not to touch the key, but to drop it on the floor. There was no restriction that I had to sit in a chair.”

“… … Why are there restrictions?”

“The first graders who came before you, none of them passed. They’ll take another test later when all the first graders take their exams.”

And that’s why I’m tired now. Frontier muttered to himself an unheard of.

The companions widened their eyes. dropping the key on the ground. It didn’t seem that difficult either. There is no condition that Frontier must sit on a chair, but such a condition is strange in the first place.

But no one passed.

“… … senior.”

Then Pielot opened his mouth.

The moment he spoke, his body was already boiling with qi.

“Just because you defeat a senior, doesn’t it mean you are disqualified?”

At those words, Dier and the others were startled and saw Pielot. But Frontier was not surprised.

Frontier looked at Pielot with a cold, low smile, as if he knew it would.

“It’s the surest solution.”
