60 – 60. Placement Test (2)
The Placement Test is usually divided into a written test and a practical test that takes up most of the points.
Dalian was one of the types of practical exams. It is a test to show off your skills based on interpersonal battles and show your growth.
That was before the nature of the Dalian test changed.
At some point, strange regulations began to emerge, and certain sections were noticeably widened.
Dalian rules, weapons, magic badges.
After the factors that determine victory or defeat tilted to one side, it was just a test that widened the gap between D and C.
Ranged magicians who can simply attack one-sidedly. Among them, the type with the high magic index had an overwhelmingly high win rate.
‘That’s why I didn’t like the Dalian exam that much.’
Aris didn’t have that kind of heart either. I thought that sparring, which repeated the same result every time without any change, was of no help.
To the extent that there was a time when he used extermination as an excuse to avoid the test.
But this time, the story was a little different.
“…Is this a real person?”
I said it was a sparring test, so the opponent is obviously a human being.
But the question is whether this is a human movement.
Tatatatatat.
-Kaang!
“Yes.”
The movement of the students bumping their weapons is reckless, so they are running like moths to a fire.
The attack that is carried out without taking care of the body is as if it is a mannequin in the shape of a person.
Even with that, the problem is that Aris gave her opponent a chance to attack because she controlled her power.
“Chi-it, I was going to send you off without hurting you.”
In the end, Aris had no choice but to make her lotus flower bloom.
At the same time as an explosion occurred, the lotus flower explosion accurately hit the student who only showed a charge while holding a weapon.
She tried to control her strength, but she was hit with an attack of this size.
The magic badge must have been red, and the defensive magic circle of the school uniform unfolded, and the opponent guessed that he had retired.
However.
“What is…?”
The defensive magic circle of the school uniform does not activate. This meant that there was no sort of defense mechanism that had to be triggered to prevent killing.
Soon the student’s form will disappear and he will return to a mass of magical power.
The identity of the student was just an illusion created by magic within the Talbrut Arc.
“Huh… Is that why the uniform’s defense mechanism didn’t activate…? The magic badge doesn’t respond…?”
Aris is blankly watching only the spot where the student’s figure was. Her guide sound resonates with such Aris.
─After a 5-minute break, the next sparring begins.
“…That’s why. That professor told me not to dwell on winning or losing.”
It elaborately imitated the behavior of students created with magical powers, making it look as if the other person was human.
At this rate, it is believed that Aris, who has been walking around the battlefield, will have enough discrimination.
It looks like a sparring match, but there are a lot of hidden things.
She mistakenly thought she was a student and inadvertently controlled her strength and almost got hit.
She almost got eliminated. Even though she was the one who dealt with various types of demons on the actual battlefield, she was in charge of multiple teams and multiple positions.
When Goden asked her to fight her melee monsters 1:1, the practice only prevented her from dropping out.
“Most of those guys who focused only on firepower must have been eliminated.”
But someone said they knew this.
-‘So, don’t look down on those guys who are going to fight against you, and defeat them all. See you as soon as possible.’
It was again. What he remembered
From noble mtl dot com
─The end of the break. The match against the next opponent begins.
***
─The last battle is over. End the test.
A total of 13 people. Nothing else this time.
You would think that it was a sparring, but a variable that did not inform the location in the field to develop discrimination. But the reality is different.
In this test, each student faces an illusion created by synthesizing the behavioral patterns, performance, and achievements stored in the Thalbrt Arc.
It was in the form of a couple, but in fact it was safe to say that it was a humanoid monster.
“I’m going to lay the groundwork for this test by saying what would happen if a monster resembling a human appeared.”
In fact, even if it wasn’t recited right now, there would be a reasonable basis.
The field of Talbrt Arc has disappeared, leaving only the exit. But what A person is standing in front of him who has just finished staring.
I was greeted unexpectedly, but what was even more unexpected was the person who met me.
“Ooh. It’s over pretty early, isn’t it?”
“…Professor Denise? Can I stay here?”
“I’m just a professor. I don’t even lecture. I’m an outsider with no authority to exercise on the Levant Academy side.”
“Ah… I did.”
Originally, professors should not intervene in students’ exams.
But Professor Denis is an exception.
Although he is called a professor, he was the only one who could be called a professor who was far from the school.
“So… You waited until I finished the test?”
Professor De Nis nodded his head indifferently. Oh my god.
“I was in charge of the Bleshuar Arc that I left before the test. With this, my mana has been recharged, so it should start normally.”
“…Was that so? The instructor didn’t come to see me for some reason.”
“Contrary to what it looks like, it’s a method that can be recharged with mana stones, so I touched it myself this time. Ah. Couldn’t you tell me about this?”
“Professor…”
Professor De Nis smiled shyly and asked me to keep what he had told me. I don’t even want to tell you about this.
I stretched out her hand to take the Blessed Ark again, but the female professor took my hand away.
“You shouldn’t be thinking of getting this back, should you come with me?”
“Yes? You want me to follow you?”
“You’ll have to take my class right away. You can’t take my class with the Bleshuar Arc on, can you?”
As soon as he heard that, Junon gasped for a moment. Thinking of going through hell training, she cautiously asks the smiling professor.
I hope I didn’t think that.
“Um… What is that…”
“I’ve never allowed you to pretend not to know and run away. Come on, follow me.”
“School, professor!! I just took a test and my strength is… Wow!!”
“Then I’ll take you away, so stay relaxed. Oh, if you run away, will you double the robbery today?”
Unfortunately, Professor Denis’ unstoppable class came to him again after the exam.
“────!”
“───.”
“…”
And there was someone watching Junon.
He hid his body pressed against a pillar so that his pink hair wouldn’t be seen.
“You… What the hell…”
How far do you know?
Aris muttered as she watched Junon walk away.
“What are you doing here, Aris?”
“Se, Senia? What is it all of a sudden?”
“No matter how far away I call your name, it’s because I’ve been dazed for a long time, so I’m coming directly to you. Did you put some honey jar on there?”
“…It’s not like that. Why did you call me more than that?”
“Goden said he had something to say and asked me to gather, but did she forget?”
“Oh, that’s right… I’ll go now. Isn’t it too late?”
“Go ahead. Everyone else has already heard.”
Although she clearly said that she was sensitive before the test, Aris looked especially strange today.
“What did you see that got you so distracted?”
Asking what Aris was looking at, she turned Senia’s eyes toward it as well, but she couldn’t tell what she was looking at.
***
“Aren’t you too withdrawn while I haven’t seen you? I think I told you to practice straight?”
“Hey, Professor? I’m not backing down… Wow!”
It’s been a while, but still Junon’s body was busy with Denis’ strict teaching.
After facing it several times, it was inevitable that I would end up clinging to it like that time.
“Isn’t that too much? To a student who just finished the exam.”
“I’m kidding. If you’re a skinny guy, I didn’t want to teach you. But in the meantime, you seem to have done everything you needed to do. At the end, that was a bit novel.”
“Yes… Is it…”
“…Um?”
Denis checked Junon’s condition several times and narrowed his eyes.
“Looking at it now, I can see cuts and scratches here and there? It’s not deep, so it’s not like I was bitten. Seeing that the blade is a bit sharp, it looks like it was cut in the Osoptera fight this time.”
“Uh… Yes.”
“Why are you right when you have that kind of defense magic? I don’t think you’ll get hurt if it’s a magic unique to your skills?”
I was worried about what to say.
I actually took my kids to sit-in against Osoptera this time. Starting with the guys who escaped that day, there were a lot of things going on, and I was overdoing it because of my lack of power.
Then, as I forcibly used the Bleshuar arc and blocked it, the shock opened up the wound.
I couldn’t say that outright.
‘If someone tries to steal something like a feat, he’ll definitely try to stop it…’
No matter how far she is from her academy’s internal circumstances, she is still a scholar and researcher.
There was nothing good for her to let her know that Aris had covered it up.
“Blow gently. What happened?”
“hehehehe…”
Professor De Nis crossed his arms and began to stare. I can’t help it unless I start to doubt it.
“We were already at the limit before Professor Dahlia arrived during the siege. It was obvious that one was about to enter, so there was no choice…”
“So you were hit? In that narrow place called the entrance to the Alkaid Hall?”
“The other guys were a little more tired, and I was just fine.”
“Huh.”
From Denise’s point of view, there is no choice but to be full of spirits.
The Osopteras have only been reported to have been handled well by the students at their discretion, and no actual casualties are known.
However, if we listened to Junon and recalled the situation, we could infer that the students at the time were pushed to their limits.
“Then the one who waited until the end was you…”
-Rumble! Rattle!
─Here! That bastard is here!
“What?”
Students’ voices are heard outside. With Denise’s voice full of annoyance, the sound of something hitting the tightly closed door in the room begins.
‘Looks like it was just announced.’
It was pretty predictable.
Twice, the shock of seeing the absurd results has left nothing to be seen, so the guys have come to visit.
Knowing that it would be useless to rebel against Professor Meuniher, it was to see an opponent worth trying.
Even before the return, the assignment test, which was conducted through welcome sparring, was announced much more quickly than then, and this time it was correct without fail.
“It’s broken! Go in!”
“It’s just like I said. There you stand brazenly.”
The door breaks open and students rush in.
It was always the guys who couldn’t overcome their pride and were frantic about slandering and putting down others.
However, the negative eyes could not be directed only to Junon.
“Wait a minute. Everyone stop and watch.”
“What outsider?”
“You fool. Don’t you know her? She’s the Imperial Countess Beryl!”
Denise Plaubel Beryl.
She hesitates for a moment, embarrassed by her presence.
She was going to rush at Junon Bay to see what she could do, but the opponent she shouldn’t make a fuss with was standing tall.
“The use of magic must be forbidden indoors. Why did they break the door with magic?”
Soon, in a chilly voice, Denis pointed out without even receiving their greeting. In fact, she was more of a warning disguised as an intellectual.
So one of them stepped in and tried to keep his hair as short as possible this time.
“I’m sorry, but he committed a felony.”
“A felony? What a felony?”
“I was judged biased in the test. Otherwise, there can’t be such a result. In order to question Junon’s class A, we’ll have to take him away.”
“A bias judgment?”
From this point on, dissatisfaction and criticism from those placed in the lower classes in the class assignment test began to pour in.
***
“Did you hear that? How could that kid be in class A!”
“Arisna Erika, who contributed the most to this defensive battle, is class A. It’s strange to be equal to that guy!”
Complaints pour in from me, who received Class A in this class assignment.
For those who don’t know what they’ve done wrong and have been taught that it’s right, they’ll doubt that a guy from E class is assigned to A class.
The ignorant things that do not work with logic are a ploy to try something because they are busy insisting.
But now I have a strong back.
“Foot… Ahahahahaha!!!”
Professor Denise suddenly burst out laughing while listening to the students.
Yes. If she had walked the path of a scholar, she would have no choice but to respond to their words.
Those guys are pouring out sophistry, not words.
“It’s okay, so stop talking, you all follow me.”
I didn’t know much during training, but Professor Denis was a scary person.
People were just laughing, but the atmosphere changed dramatically.
Unlike the mischievous and nasty smile he showed while teaching me a while ago, this time he was showing quite an uncomfortable feeling.
