24 – Sniffer
Boom! Pop! Pop!
First day at Mars Arena.
The sound of firecrackers echoed through the streets.
“Ughhhhh what should I do? I am so nervous right now.”
Veronica was very nervous about the fact that the tournament was about to begin. Her sniffer, who was watching her, raised her thumb and pointed at herself.
“Relax, Veronica. Even if you fall, am I still there?”
At that, everyone except the sniffer looked puzzled, and Veronica smiled and said, “Put.”
“Can you say that after defeating Zeke and Gilbert?”
“Hey. It’s because I haven’t played properly yet, if I do, I’ll win?”
A sniffer’s groundless statement.
It wasn’t Zeke and Gilbert who would stay silent after hearing that. The two raised their eyebrows and said.
“Oh you’re confident, sniffer?”
“Sure. Shall we stick together right now?”
As the two stood up with their hands on their swords, the embarrassed sniffer waved his hand and said.
“Uh…… Guys? It’s a match if I have some? I will deal with you later.”
“It’s okay. It will be over soon.”
“Right. A sniffer wouldn’t spend a second fighting the two of us.”
“Oh, don’t come. You children!”
It was a sniffer that moved away from the two of them as they got closer.
It would be fun to keep watching the two of them, who seem like they’re going to pull out their knives and run at the sniffer at any moment. As Sniffer said, he had to go to the match soon.
I shouldn’t have had to strain out before the match to interfere with the match.
“Everybody, go there. Sniffer, get ready to go out.”
“…… Phew.”
instant noodle scks tho
The two of them looked at the relieved sniffer and said, caressing the handle of the sword.
“Yup. Too bad.”
“How are you? Even if it’s not now, you can just George at the tournament.”
Sniffer, who felt chills running down his spine at the word “Corruption,” Said to the two.
“Are you my friends?”
The two said with a grin.
“Of course. Friend.”
Somehow, it seemed that the meaning of being a friend was very different.
Still, thanks to the commotion that just happened, the tension of the students has eased a lot.
Still, Derahn was before the tournament started in earnest. He said to ease the students’ tension.
“Is everyone nervous?”
The students nodded at Derian’s words.
“…… I won’t ask you to relax. But don’t be too nervous. Moderate tension is good. Too much is not good.”
“Teacher, aren’t you nervous? They said that if we fall, the teacher will be fired too.”
“I believe you guys will be in the top 5. Why should I be nervous?”
“Stop, sir!”
“… ….”
“Me. I’ll do my best!”
“Hmm… ….”
“It’s great that you trust me that much.”
The students were moved by Derian’s complete trust in them.
‘There’s no way we won’t be in the top 5 with Zeke and Gilbert.’
Derahn had a corner where he believed everything. There are two students who entered the Sword Expert.
Students who are not strange even if they are in the upper class in terms of their skills alone.
With the two of them together, Derian wasn’t nervous at all.
Two students who were originally strong even completed hell training.
Even Sieg learned how to apply the core of the Grand Princess of the North. Gilbert has even declared that he will no longer hide his power.
Unless God really forsakes you, losing a bet with the president will never happen.
“But did you check who your opponent was?”
At Veronica’s words, each of the students named their opponent one by one.
“I’m with a boy named Velheim, a lower class in the magic world.”
“I am Galilei, the lower class of martial arts.”
“Dorian in the martial arts intermediate class.”
Tricia, Gilbert, and Zeke spoke of each other’s opponents in that order. Veronica said to the sniffer who was alone.
“Hey, who are you sticking with? Are you leaving soon?”
“Me?”
Until now, Sniffer hadn’t particularly cared about who he was dealing with. So he didn’t even know who his opponent was as the first day of the tournament approached.
Seeing that, Veronica asked in a trembling voice.
“You…… Could it be that you didn’t recognize it?”
Veronica, no matter how stupid she is, she didn’t even recognize who she was dealing with when she was expelled? She thought.
But the opponent was a sniffer.
In the end, an answer came out of the sniffer’s mouth that made Veronica’s cut off.
“That’s annoying…… “
“You madman!”
Veronica kicked off her seat and ran out. She grabbed the sniffer by the collar and shook it.
“Are you doing this because you want to be expelled? You should have known at least who it was!”
“uuu I really need to leave in a little while. Let go of this.”
The students who watched the scene became curious about who Sniffer’s opponent would be.
“Sir, who is the sniffer against?”
Derian opened up the table he had brought with him and checked Sniffer’s opponent. After confirming the opponent, Derahn’s expression was not very good.
‘Is this a bit dangerous?’
“Who are you?”
Derahn answered Trisha’s question.
“Sniffer is an advanced class in the magic world. He’s hanging out with Jose Richards.”
“Hiccup.”
For a moment, everyone stopped moving.
“Yes, the advanced class?”
“Yes, it is the advanced class.”
As soon as Derahn finished speaking, an announcement came out.
[Students waiting in the waiting room, please come out to the venue under the guidance of the teacher in charge.]
“Let’s go sniffer.”
“Uh, uh uh uh”
Sniffer was pulled out of the waiting room by Derahn’s hand.
The remaining students in the waiting room prayed for Sniffer, praying that Sniffer would resist at least once and be eliminated.

Jose wasn’t in a good mood. He didn’t like the fact that the first opponent was a student in the class of a failing student in the competition that his parents came to after a long time.
“It’s unlucky to have a guy who isn’t even a source of entertainment for the first time.”
Jose wanted to show a great image as much as he participated in his first match at the long-awaited Mars Arena. However, the opponent was a student in the class of a failed student. He couldn’t be a proper match.
“Is it the same with this guy who is unlucky?”
It was Jose who burst out laughing when he thought of the opponent who would be knocked out in one shot.
“I need to finish quickly and find out who my next opponent is.”
Unlike anyone else, Jose thoroughly analyzed who he was dealing with.
When the first half of the failed students were caught, I thought I had just won one victory. However, Jose, whose hobby was to analyze opponents, investigated the weapon and fighting style that the sniffer mainly uses.
“I didn’t have enough data because I was in the class of a failing student, but it must be no big deal to someone who uses a bow.”
As a wizard, Jose was not at all afraid of sniffers using a bow. In the first place, the feelings of fear could not arise in the class of the failed students.
No matter how many arrows he shoots, he won’t be able to pierce his shield, and if he keeps his shield up and shoots magic from a distance, he will easily win.
Without doubting that he would win easily, Jose entered the Colosseum where the tournament was being held.
“Waaa!”
As soon as I entered the Colosseum, a tremendous shout rang out. All of them came from afar to watch the event.
The moderator announced Jose’s appearance using the voice amplification artifact.
“This is Jose Richard, the upper class in the magic world!”
“Whoa, whoa, whoa!”
“I’m looking forward to this match, since it’s an advanced class from the first match!”
“Let it be very smashed!”
‘To be so enthusiastic about a fight that will end soon anyway.’
No matter what Jose thinks, the host made the Colosseum even hotter.
“The student who opposes Jose Richard of the upper magic class is the sniffer of Arsene’s weakest class, the failed class.”
Boos poured out from the audience as soon as the host finished his speech.
“Are you still not expelled from school?”
“How did you get into the academy with that skill!”
“Go back to your hometown!”
Sniffer shouted angrily at the booing that was being hurled at him.
“Be quiet. Shoot it out?”
The presenter warned the sniffer who threatened the audience by pretending to draw a bowstring.
“Do not act threatening towards the sniffer student crowd. If you do it one more time, you will be eliminated.”
“Ugh.”
According to the moderator’s guidance, Sniffer and Jose stood in the center of the Colosseum keeping their distance from each other.
“Hey, I’ll kill you gently, so just get hit enough and fall down.”
Sniffer’s face twisted at Jose’s words.
“What are you talking about?”
“Are you deaf or stupid?”
“What did you say?”
“You can’t beat me anyway, so pretend you’re going down.”
“What?”
“Even if you try to be considerate… ….”
As the conversation between the two was about to get longer, the moderator cut off the conversation and said.
“Enough of small talk, both of you.”
“Chit.”
“You. Let’s see.”
The moderator confirmed that the chatter between the two had stopped and continued.
“The match starts when the fireworks explode. Get ready, both players.”
The sniffer took out a bow and held it. Jose pulled out his staff and held it up.
The presenter fired firecracker magic toward the sky.
Pyong.
The firecrackers that rose high in the sky gradually lost their power and stopped in the sky.
Boom!
Fireworks exploded and the battle began.
