Entrance Exam (2)
Mirinae Academy 1st year classroom.
It had become a mess.
A woman smiling and a man screaming in anger among the scattered test papers.
The two seemed to treat each other as more than an antagonism.
“Crazy! What should I do if the difficulty level of the exam is set at random!”
“Oh, you were the one who said you needed to be discriminatory, didn’t you?”
“But it wasn’t like you were asking me to give it to you at this level!”
The problem is that the first page of the theory test for the academy entrance exam in Mirinae.
The problems written there were at a level that even the prospective cadets, or even the premier cadets, could not solve.
“Do you think the first 5 questions can really give you discriminatory power? Do you think there are any prospective cadets who can solve them!”
“Okay, that’s why it’s discriminating.”
Even those who initially thought, ‘Do I need to react like that?’ changed their minds as soon as they saw the floating test paper.
“Last year, there were one or two perfect scorers, right? I didn’t like that either. I hope you all agree with my opinion?”
“Well, I didn’t expect it to be this strong…”
“Me too. This is… a very idealistic and subjective test. Is there any answer?”
“Oh, of course. What do you see me as?”
Professor Hwa-ryeong Lee responded with a smirk no matter what he heard and did not stop smiling.
Even in a situation where everyone looked at him in a bad way, he calmly continued his conversation.
“Mirinae Academy should be the best. Even if you take a theory test, you have to ask all about magic, martial arts, and affair, not just theory.”
“I’m talking about the quality of the problem now.”
“You think it’s good quality?”
“It’s too high, so how many times do you have to say it’s a problem? Is it your hobby to distort other people’s words like that?”
“That’s why I said it was a device for discrimination… Budo doesn’t understand people’s words well, does it?”
“Yeah? What does that mean?”
“It’s just how I feel.”
Hwa-ryeong Lee, the first-year magician representative professor, and Guy-nard, the first-year martial arts representative professor.
From the first meeting, the two could be said to have been close friends.
“The test paper has already been made, and there is no time to edit it.”
Everyone in the office was at a loss for words at Lee Hwa-ryeong’s bold attitude.
This is because the aspirations and desires for talented people were suppressed by Lee Hwa-ryeong, who is higher than anyone else.
“You just have to supervise the exam and watch the kids holding onto the first page, okay?”
“…”
Guynard decided that fighting horses was meaningless any longer.
He turned around and walked to the theory test site.
It was 30 minutes before the Academy Theory Exams started.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
‘It’s George.’
It was the impression I spit out as soon as I saw the first question on the exam.
—-
State the answer to the following question.
——–＜problem＞——–
There is a party of four people.
If this party meets a giant ogre, please describe the most ideal four occupations, positions, and methods of attack.
＜It is assumed that the level of the party is sufficient to catch the Cyclops, and the condition is assumed to be the best.＞

A problem that cannot be easily approached without at least an expert in one field occupies the first place.
‘I’m asking the prospective cadets this from the beginning.’
Not only that, but also asking for magic tricks, finding a way to break swordsmanship, structuring artifacts, etc.
There were a lot of problems that were difficult to look at.
Suppose there are about 5 exam papers distributed and there are 5 questions like this on each side.
About 50 questions in total.
‘You want me to solve this in an hour?’
Even if I knew the answer, each question would take at least 10 to 15 minutes.
This was the part I didn’t think of, so I was disappointed.
‘I only know how to take the academy exam, but I don’t know the details…’
Lee Seok-hyun was not a character who grew up after entering the academy, so I had no choice but to do it.
The fortunate thing is that in the past, I had seen high-level problems several times to raise the intelligence stat.
So, although it took some time, I was able to solve the problem.
‘I’m a little worried about the distribution of time…’
The first problem is usually the easiest one for all countries.
If so, it means that this is a basic problem, so it was impossible to skip the problem and look at the back page.
‘It would have been better if I knew how the other kids solved it.’
It is not for nothing that it is said that cheating on the academy exam is close to impossible.
As soon as the test begins, a black film will appear around the prospective cadets, making it impossible to see.
Not only that, even if the flow of mana and the omens of skills were felt even a little, he was eliminated without asking.
A structure that can only be solved by one’s own pure power.
‘You’re making me feel embarrassed.’
Time was visible, so I felt nervous as I solved the problem.
Even if you know the answer, you may not have enough time because of the length of the answer.
What’s worse is that there are still 45 questions left, 10 minutes remaining, and you have just solved 4 questions.
‘Since the application rate for an affair is low, you can solve five problems… If you show a slightly unusual appearance in practice, you may pass…’
It wasn’t impossible at all. And even if you failed and failed, there were several more ways to get into the academy.
If possible, it was convenient to go as a cadet and eat rice cakes next to the main characters to increase their strength.
“Five minutes left. Those who will replace the answer sheet should be replaced in advance, and those who have not written all the questions yet, hurry up.”
Supervisor who tells you the remaining time and precautions.
Despite the harsh tone, there was a strangely friendly feeling.
‘Perhaps that person was Professor Guynard.’
As a martial arts professor, he is rumored to be strict, and he is one of the people who keeps his standards better than anyone else.
When he decided to raise the main character towards martial arts, he was a major character that had to be liked unconditionally.
Of course, I had an affair, so that wasn’t the case.
Tick tock.
As time passes, the anxiety increases.
If you write one or two more sentences in the future, the perfect answer will be completed.
‘I thought I’d just leave it as it is because it was a problem with the artefact formula, but I hid the trap.’
I don’t know who the author of the question was, but I could say that it was a bad thing among bad things.
There are a few expected characters, but will the kids be able to solve the problem if they act so horribly?
If everything was like this, conversely, I could have answered 5 questions and got the highest score.
‘If it’s 10 out of 0… I won, right?’
While I was writing down the problem with that thought in mind, Guynard’s shout hit my ear.
“Until there! Everyone stop! Don’t move any more.”
A guide who spit out the words that the test is over as if he would meet an enemy and kill him.
No matter how much I prefer FM, I thought that this was a bit harsh.
“The test papers will be collected on their own, so until I give instructions, everyone stay still and put your hands over your head.”
“”Yep!””
As soon as everyone put their hands on their heads according to the guide’s instructions, the test papers floated in the air one by one.
‘Theory exam is over.’
Now it was really just a joke.
+++++++++++++++++
“Let’s all line up.”
“”yep!!””
In the practical exam room.
There, as expected, several doors were lined up side by side.
‘It’s different when you look at it with dots.’
The so-called door of trials.
As soon as you open the door, you will be sucked into the test area, and you will take the test by catching the monsters that come out of it.
Each time you catch a monster, a stronger monster comes out, and the score is determined by how quickly and how high a monster is caught.
“There is no need to choose one so that everyone stands in front of the door, each door is not different and they are all the same.”
Following the friendly guide’s explanation, the prospective cadets hurriedly moved to avoid distaste.
I wondered if it was necessary to move so violently to just stand in front of a door, but I understood.
It’s a prayer that changes your life depending on whether you go in or not, but you have to do your best.
‘If you compare it to the Earth, it feels like the last SAT of 8 students.’
With that thought in mind, I slowly walked towards the door.
After all, this part is not included in the test score, because this was the only break time.
“For reference, you don’t really die just because you die in it, so do your best, use your strength enough to die. Even if it’s overkill, it’s all an illusionary space, and we have enough power to heal you. Trust us.”
It was Guynard’s words that said he would relieve tension, but that made the atmosphere even more heavy.
The words of preparedness to the point of death and the heavy voice of the examiner telling him to do his best.
Far from being comfortable, I couldn’t light a fire in my heart, so I turned everything to ashes.
‘The test is over if you pass the situation on the verge of passing out or dying inside.’
It was an academy-like practical test method that values practicality.
“Now, open the door and go inside.”
“”Yep!””
A roaring reply echoed through the sky, and the sound of the door opening was heard simultaneously.
I also opened the door and went in, and the first thing I saw there.
“It’s a goblin.”
Green skin, short stature estimated to be about 130 cm.
Even the coarse stone he was holding in his arm.
The graphics in the game were reproduced as they were.
‘If it’s the first goblin… the order is roughly expected.’
The main characters will catch monsters to a level that the prospective cadets can’t handle.
While thinking about this and that, the goblin ran towards me at a quick speed.
Yes, it was too obvious and slow.
“Keek!”
“Wow, your bad breath is no joke. Have you been brushing with pine needles for ten years?”
This is the first time Anne smells just like me.
Whirly Rik!
I grabbed the arm tightly to prevent it from flying away as I turned the chin of the running guy and kicked it.
dripping dripping.
As the caught body and the head that was about to fly played separately, the goblin’s head was pulled out as easily as a sprout.
“This is the result of 10 years of living in the mountains. You bastard.”
To say that he was in a state that far surpassed the general public was nothing but the same thing as that of the knights.
Of course, it can’t compare to becoming a monster by letting mana flow into your body.
Still, it could be seen that this was a very useful level.
‘This is next… Wolf, Bear, War Wolf…’
The good thing about being a dead person is that you know all the weaknesses and patterns of monsters.
As far as physical abilities could reach, all monsters were able to deal with it, so I was able to endure it.
Also, just before the monsters died, they took away their weapons, so it was still enough to do.
‘With the wolf’s claws, peel off the bear’s skin and put it on his body… with that, he blocks the war wolf’s attack… and then pulls out the war wolf’s claws again.’
Kill and farm, prepare for it, kill and farm and repeat.
Would it have been repeated five more times?
Now, monsters out of the realm of the body began to appear.
“This will be a fork in the road now.”
Orcs are also at a level that can be caught if possible.
The Orc Party could withstand it.
But if you turn to trolls, it’s a completely different story.
“oo!!!!!!”
The armor I stole from the Orc Party no longer protects me.
If you get hit by the root of a tree that the troll wields involuntarily, you’ll be shattered no matter what you wear.
Even more so when it comes to cheap iron armor made by hand by orcs.
‘The united will cannot be activated…’
The meaning of the group has long since been destroyed by destroying the anthill.
The main skill is sealed, and you have to face the troll when you can’t even use the hidden skill.
“It’s what I do best.”
He slowly loosened the bandages that were tightly tied to his hands.
It was time to pull out the cobwebs.
