43 – Field Trip (2)
A few days passed and the midterm exam period began.
All the students are making noises as if they have become zombies.
“uuu.”
“Save me.”
“This is hell.”
Even though everyone is about to die, all the students are moving towards the midterm exam area.
Then after a while.
The students in the S-class class have already arrived at their destination.
They looked around quietly with tired faces.
“It’s completely a forest.”
“Yes.”
“What kind of test are you going to take this time?”
“More than that, what subject is this test?”
“Practical training.”
“This must be the beginning of hell.”
This is none other than Kael’s subject.
So, you should think of it as a real hell.
‘The magic theory lecture was a real hell.’
Maria brushed away the goosebumps that had formed on her forearms as she quietly recalled the theory test he had given.
At this point, I can’t help but think that he might actually be a devil and not an archmage.
The theory test was hell, but I can’t imagine how good the practical classes would really be.
At that time.
-Ah. Ah. Now, let me explain the test.
Kael’s voice was heard from the communication magic sphere in the forest.
Soon, he explains about this test.
-For this test, you have to catch a monster in the forest. If you catch them, you are awarded points. The score changes depending on the monster, so you just need to know that.
“Uh, can I ask a question?”
Elaine raises her hand and tilts her head as if it is now normal.
-Yes. Let’s try it.
“What about our safety?”
-Didn’t I tell you? Practical training? There is no such thing.
After hearing that, all the students thought the same thing.
‘That’s the real devil, the professor.’
While I was thinking that, Kael continued.
-Then let’s start the test now.
With those words, the midterm exams finally began.

Mana screen displayed in the waiting room.
The professors look worried at the image reflected on the Mana screen.
I think it was because they were afraid that the students would get seriously hurt.
At that time.
“Hey, Professor Kael.”
On the first day of lecture, Professor Veron, who pointed out something to me, spoke to me.
I turned my head and answered.
“Yes, why are you doing that?”
“Is that okay? Even if we send students there without any safety?”
Well, it’s not unreasonable to be worried.
Aren’t there key people among the students shown on the Mana screen?
“You don’t have to worry.”
“As expected, you installed a separate safety device?”
“No.”
“?”
The professors looked puzzled at those words.
Soon, I looked at the mana screen and answered as if it was obvious.
“There is no way the students who learned from me would feel a sense of crisis here.”
For a moment, the professors all put question marks on the top of their heads as if asking what they were talking about.
At the same time.
-Kyaaa!
A monster appears from the mana screen.
A goblin champion who can be said to be a high-level monster has appeared.
The professors looked at him with anxious eyes.
Because regular students are confronting goblin champions.
But, it was different from what I expected.
-Chaaa!
-What is it? It’s so easy, right?
-Compared to the professor, they are nothing!
-Kill it!
The goblin champion has started to spit out muksa.
Obviously, it is only possible for a high-level adventurer to step forward to subdue him.
However, the students are unilaterally beating the monster in front of them as if it is no big deal.
The professors who saw this looked in disbelief.
Yes. I was beaten to death like that, but a monster like that would be no big deal.
-Die!
-Let’s resolve our resentment!
-Give me the score!
-After all that hard work, I should at least do well on the exam!
Of course, it is completely different from what the students usually show.
Anyway.
‘Better than that, Professor Nell didn’t come.’
Nell, who normally came to see me every time, is not visible today.
No, if I think about it, I think I haven’t been able to see her much lately.
‘Hmm, is something happening?’
Thinking about that for a moment, I shifted my gaze.
‘You came as expected.’
As Ellie expected, the class came for a field trip.
They said they were going on a field trip for midterms, but it looks like it was real.
And.
‘I don’t even see a guy named Kali.’
As planned, only half of the students are in the waiting room.
‘If all goes according to plan.’
This guy will appear in front of Ellie.
‘For now, I guess I’ll just have to wait for him to show up.’
With that thought in mind, I quietly looked at the mana screen.

Same time.
Ellie easily defeated the goblin champion before her eyes.
She took a moment to shake off the dust from her clothes.
“Whoa.”
As planned, I was separated from my group and went alone.
‘More than that, the professor seems to have a conscience as well.’
In fact, because the lectures were so hellish, I thought there would be no answers on the exam.
However, contrary to expectations, the test is very easy.
As if this was nothing.
‘At this point, isn’t the test just easy and have we become too strong?’
Anyway, even if the test is easy, it is important to see whether the class’s load will move.
What’s important now is Ban’s strategy.
‘That man would definitely do anything to take over the throne.’
Even if it means causing murder at the academy.
The time when she quietly walked around the forest and thought.
– Jeopuk. Jerk.
The sound of neat steps came from my ear.
Ellie turned her head.
Then, the same goblin champion as before appeared.
Originally, I would have killed the goblin champion without hesitation.
But, why?
‘Something is strange.’
I feel a great sense of discomfort from the monster in front of me.
The next moment, the goblin champion smiles creepyly.
Then, she speaks quietly so that only she can hear.
“You’re quite perceptive. After all, you’re that guy’s younger sister.”
As soon as she heard him, she recognized it at once.
The monster in front of her was a traitor she had met before.
‘Is that so?’
I wondered why no one had noticed that he was such a renegade until now.
But, if you have that kind of transformation ability, it’s understandable to some extent.
‘At least I wouldn’t have noticed if it wasn’t for the maid I secretly planted.’
The moment when Ellie thinks like that.
“Can I lose my mind like that?”
Her Kali raises the corners of her mouth and pumps her fists.
Unlike the goblin champions I’ve faced so far, this is a no-frills move.
Ellie quickly released her golden magic.
-Tall!
In an instant, Kali’s movements suddenly stopped as she was hit directly by her magical power.
A feeling of pressure due to the royal family’s unique magical power.
Ellie took advantage of the opportunity to grab Carly’s wrist.
Soon, she quickly threw it to the other side.
-Whoa.
Kali flying towards the tree on the other side.
He did a back tumble with a somewhat surprised expression.
Carly landed lightly and looked straight ahead.
Then, Ellie runs away without hesitation.
‘Your situational judgment is good and your skills are also good.’
Her honestly I thought she could kill her any moment now.
However, contrary to expectations, I felt great pressure on her magical power.
In addition, the technique is also quite outstanding.
‘Isn’t it a good decision to even run away?’
At that level, it tastes like death.
Kali kicks her feet with the corners of her mouth raised.
And then, while using his demon energy, he kicked his feet with all his might.
Next moment.
“Where are you running away?”
Carly arrived in front of her before she knew it.
Ellie’s eyes widened at her Carly’s movements.
‘Quick!’
Of course, she expected that she would be strong since she came to kill her.
However, she had no idea that she would be caught up so easily.
“What does the princess’s blood taste like?”
He approaches her slowly, licking his lips.
Then, he wrapped his fist around Magi.
-Whoa!
Kali raises her fist with all her might.
Ellie unleashed her magic once again to put the pressure on.
But.
“It doesn’t work twice.”
Contrary to expectations, his body does not flinch or anything.
Before she knew it, his fist came right in front of her nose.
Ellie raised her hands.
Next moment.
-Kwaaa!!
The sound of a bomb exploding rang in my ears.
Her power was so strong that it felt like both her arms would be broken.
‘It would be impossible for me to win.’
At that time, she was wondering how Ellie could pass the time.
“I’m sorry, but no one will be able to help you. “Other people won’t be able to see the situation here.”
Kali raises the corner of her mouth as if there will be no help.
When she heard those words, she burst into laughter.
Then, he narrows his eyes.
“Why are you smiling?”
“Oh, that’s because it’s fun.”
“Fun?”
“You talk as if you are moving according to your own thoughts.”
“What?”
What on earth does that mean?
It’s as if he was saying that he expected to appear here.
‘No, that can’t be possible.’
This place will not be illuminated in the waiting room right now.
Didn’t he also touch the communication crystal ball?
At that time.
– Jeopuk. Jerk.
I heard the sound of footsteps in my ear.
Originally, I don’t pay much attention to it.
However, for some reason, her relaxed expression bothers me.
Even the timing is so accurate.
Next moment.
“It would have been nice if it had come a little sooner. Professor.”
In her vision, Kael appeared before her eyes.
When Kali saw Kael’s appearance, she instinctively felt it.
The trap is that she rather finds herself caught.
