I Became The Academy’s Narrow-Eyes chapter 10

10 – Hot!

“You have finally arrived.”

After successfully completing the unofficial 0th entrance exam under Drin’s leadership, I arrived at District 1 with Drin’s guidance.

Now it’s time to take the first entrance exam for the academy.

Unfortunately, it was time to break up with Drin.

Still, if you pass the academy, you will have many opportunities to tease Drin- no, there will be many opportunities to meet Drin, so let’s sayonara with a light heart.

“Sir. Thanks for the guidance. If it wasn’t for the Lord, I would still be wandering in the dark and unclean Devil’s Realm where mighty beings roam.”

“If anyone sees it, they’ll think they’ve attacked a dungeon.”

“You may not know, sir, but I have been dealing with a great villain in that back alley.”

“Are you sure that’s what I’m talking about?”

“oh! no! Really this time!”

“this time? really?”

“now. do it there Sir. Let’s laugh! We are going to part now, so shouldn’t we say good-bye with a smile?”

ha ha ha!

I forced a smile and created an atmosphere of farewell, but Drin was squeamish.

“What do you mean we’re breaking up now?”

“yes?”

“Didn’t you say you were on your way to take the academy entrance exam?”

“Yes?”

“Me too. Let’s go together.”

Oh, come to think of it, I also took part in the entrance exam this time.

“Oh, no way! I was worried about taking the exam by myself, so I made the sudden admission decision-“

“Ceylon. I’m saying this because I’m worried about you, but you need to loosen up a little bit of self-consciousness. For me to take an unscheduled academy exam because of you. Do you think that makes sense?”

Drin said seriously, with a face of pure concern, not the slightest hint of sarcasm.

“Ugh, it hurts. Your innocent reaction hurts so much… ”

“What are you talking about again? Is this person really okay? ”

Ain Academy had its facilities spread throughout the city of Arien.

Among them, the area where the largest number of facilities were distributed was District 1, where key facilities including the main building and dormitories were located.

The place where Drin and I arrived was a test site prepared by randomly remodeling one of the academy facilities.

People lined up at the entrance to the exam hall, forming a long line.

Drin and I went to stand behind him, and soon others came up behind us.

‘As expected, the line isn’t that long.’

According to Ain Academy’s philosophy of pursuit, anyone could freely apply for the entrance exam without any restrictions on qualifications or conditions.

As long as you graduate, Ain Academy will let you sell your life.

People who have heard about the entrance exam method have no doubts that the exam center will be a mess with people who thought ‘Let’s stab it’ with a light heart.

However, although there are a lot of people who are in the actual test center, it is not that much.

Knowing the reason, I found the reason and nodded.

“There are fewer people than I thought, do you think so?”

However, Drin went into petite conceit mode and came up with a mistake.

Of course, I thought I wouldn’t know about the reason, and it seemed that I was going to tell you personally.

It was a perfect angle to tease, but Drin was looking at me very happy.

It’s like looking at a kid who asked, ‘How big is the sun!?’

However, in my eyes, he looked like a child saying, ‘Ask me how big the sun is!’

“Oh, how did you know!? There are so many people!”

I couldn’t bear to pour cold water on that atmosphere, so Drin returned the reaction he wanted.

“Everyone who has heard about the entrance exam feels the same way. I have legitimate concerns that the test site might be paralyzed by too many people.”

Drin pointed to the long line.

“By the way, the line at the exam hall isn’t that long, considering that. It’s to the point where I don’t think this is short enough. Do you know why?”

“Oh oh… Why is that?”

Drin pointed out the reason I had just discovered.

It was a combination of two people (?) consisting of a rough golem and a person in charge.

Several combinations that had taken their seats at the entrance of the exam hall were welcoming the participants.

As the contestants stood in front, light leaked from the grooves carved all over the golem’s body.

“fail.”

When red light leaked from the golem, the person in charge told the contestant to be eliminated.

“pass. Participant number 346.”

When blue light leaked from the golem, the person in charge gave the participant a pass and gave them a participation number.

That series of courses, which took about 30 seconds on average, was the first academy test.

“In other words, in that short period of time, one dropout and one passer each appeared. As many people gather, the processing speed is fast, so the crowd is maintained at an appropriate level.”

After an enthusiastic explanation, Drin looked at me with a face as if he heard a voice saying, “How are you?”

“Ohhh… My doubts were clearly cleared. Sir, you are well-informed as expected!”

“You make too much fuss. Well, I’m glad it helped.”

There is nothing significant about this.

Drin said so in a calm manner.

However, I could clearly see it in my narrow-eyed eyes, an eerie stalker who carefully watched Drin’s every move.

A hint of satisfaction flowed from his face.

‘It’s like this… ‘

Doongadunga give it to me.

It has a different taste than when playing.

memo.

“Sir, do you know that?”

“What is it?”

“The rate at which this line is shrinking now. This is insanely fast. I’m telling you because I don’t think you’ll know if you’ve never stood in line in your life.”

“How can you say you’ve never stood in line in your life?”

Drin’s pupil, who was about to argue, said, ‘Huh?’ Dig into the upper right corner.

“what? What is that reaction? I said this as a joke, but have you ever really stood in line for a gift in your life? The rest of the noble class!?”

“No, that… ”

But still, teasing is sweeter.

memo.

“f*ck you! I knew this would happen! It was a piece of sh*t that anyone could take the test, you bastards!”

But why is the golem so noisy?

Drin and I suddenly poked our heads over the line to survey the situation.

There are five people left in front of us.

What is making a fuss right now is the golem and the participant being evaluated by the person in charge.

“That bastard who looks like a weakling gets the pass, but I’m not qualified? Hee hee hee, damn it. Explain it to me, you bastard bastards, what is it for! Without even hearing it, I’m sure I look like a lowly mercenary bastard!”

It was a problem with the simple and fast test method.

When I got ‘Bip-Bik, I passed’, the sound of ‘Oh, I don’t know what it is, but honey’ came out naturally.

If you get a ‘beep, it’s unqualified’, the sound of ‘Oh, I don’t know what it is, so you’re pissed’ comes out.

Perhaps it is common for unqualified candidates to make a fuss, but the person in charge, presumed to be an academy assistant, sighed as if he was annoyed.

“Participation number 346 satisfies the minimum standards required by this academy for enrolled students in terms of mana sensitivity. On the other hand, you didn’t meet that criterion. That’s all. It doesn’t matter what your job or status is.”

To sum up what the manager said in one word:

Lack of level.

‘Take level 10 like me and come.’

Level 14 to be exact, but anyway.

“What, what bullsh*t! How do you know my mana sensitivity!”

“This golem gives up all functions and is optimized only for measuring the target’s mana sensitivity. Its accuracy is guaranteed by this academy. So, why don’t you put it here? Therefore, if you do not intend to disrupt the exam by force, give your seat to the ‘waiting people’ immediately.”

The mercenary looked back at the word ‘waiting people’ emphasized by the person in charge.

long line.

And countless participants glaring at themselves.

To that, I also added a sliver.

Then, his face turned white and he hurriedly left the place.

No matter how hot he was, he didn’t seem hot enough to film ‘f*ck the Academy in the center of the academy’ right now.

“We will resume the exam.”

After that, our turn came.

“Noble sirs do it first. So get out of this savage ‘Jul’ as soon as possible!”

“Yes, so I must get away from you as soon as possible.”

Drin shook his head and stood in front of the golem.

-…

The inorganic golem’s eyes stare at Drin.

Then, blue light leaked from the golem’s groove.

“Passed. Participant number-“

The person in charge checked the light and tried to give Drin a participant number, but was speechless.

The blue light emanating from the golem’s groove became clearer and clearer.

It became clearer and splendid, and finally began to spread in all directions.

“huh?”

“what?”

Participants in our line.

Participants standing in another line.

participants taking the test.

those in charge of the examination.

Everyone followed the source of the blue light.

Soon the light faded, and everyone in the place was staring at Drin.

A mysterious woman who is putting on a spotlight show on a different level while everyone else is barely extracting the faint blue light from the golem.

“Are you Rebringer?”

someone muttered. that was a sign

“Isn’t that a re-bringer? A re-bringer.”

“The one who participated in the test this time, the genius of the Rebringer family?”

“The eyes on that head… I think they fit?”

“Certainly, among the contestants, such nonsense-“

“As rumored, great-“

People were convinced that it was a re-bringer given by the owner of the blue flash and began to pay attention in earnest.

“Participant number 347. Welcome to Ain Academy.”

Even the person in charge, who seemed to be taking care of the participants, treated Drin in a much more respectful and cautious atmosphere.

“thank you.”

Even in such a mess, Drin was just resolute.

After bowing lightly to the person in charge, you enter the test room.

Even though Drin disappeared, the excitement of the place did not subside.

In a scene where I was excited by Drin’s presence, the only thing that interested me was the golem for measuring mana sensitivity.

“Is it my turn now? Please take care of me.”

After being told to listen, the person in charge finally comes to his senses and prepares a memo while looking at the golem.

-…

The golem’s inorganic gaze, which had been staring at Drin, stared at me this time.

If the golem’s reaction to seeing Drin was like an adolescent girl encountering an idol on the street, the golem’s reaction to seeing me was like an adolescent girl encountering her father on the street.

A truly lukewarm blue light leaked from the golem’s groove.

“Passed. Participant number 348.”

Either way, blue light is blue light.

The person in charge gave me a participant number.

That’s how I entered the test room, and the person in charge was about to receive the next participant.

-uuu

As if the TV was turned off, the light emitted by the golem suddenly faded.

Not only the blue light I made, but also the red light that used to act as an eye.

“what. Why is this?”

Even if the person in charge tried their hand, the golem showed no signs of working again.

It seemed that our Golem-kun had crossed a rainbow—no, a stone bridge.

And maybe the cause is me.

“Then I’m done…!”

bouncing!

After confirming again and again that there was no trace of me on the golem, I immediately left the place, pretending to be calm.
