6 – You will be happy
After that, I went around the forest with Rain and wiped out the weakened party together.
At most, the parties with 2 or 3 people were very tired due to the passage of time, but it seemed that everyone was preparing to abandon the party, so it was a ragtag gathering with no teamwork.
“Thanks to that, the supply of mana stones is over.”
“I couldn’t fight the most important opponent.”
Although she is revered as a saint in the church, she is a candidate for a saint who has not fully awakened yet, so there are too many escort knights. If possible, I’d like to steal the mana stone… .
“Shall we promise later?”
There are too many numbers, too many. Those are obviously academy cadets and they threw in those who were trained as paladins. The goddamn church is like that.
I looked at the divine magic that I could still feel for a moment, then looked away. Let’s not worry about what we can’t do.
The amount of mana stones reached three digits, so there shouldn’t be any problem in taking the stones.
Peeing!!!
Soon after, a huge ball of fire rose toward the sky from afar.
“Everyone, the test is over.”
As soon as those words resonated in my head, a strange sensation of floating spread throughout my body, and gastric juices rose up to my throat.
“Ouch… !”
Unlike the previous teleport, the teleport magic, which increased accuracy rather than stability, gave a twisting discomfort.
“Good work.”
Despite the dry words, most of the students in the forest sat down on the ground as if collapsing from exhaustion.
I didn’t pour all my mana into it, but I pushed the physical side as much as possible.
It’s only 30 minutes, but during that 30 minutes, it was really running and fighting repeatedly, so the poor body fatigue and tired muscles feel heavy for no reason.
Although it was said that Rain was covered by magical power, he could not skip muscle training and aerobic exercise. Stamina is important in a fight that conserves mana.
“Then I will announce the results.”
The mana stones that were felt in the waist in an instant came out of the pocket in an instant and gathered in front of the eyes, emitting light and being reborn as a single spell.
“Wow… .”
While the other students were staring at the dreamy scene in amazement, the rune of the mana stone soon floated a number in front of my eyes.
[One]
“Practical first place, Ryan Primal.”
As soon as the new white numbers came up, the instructor said my name.
I took 1 more than Reign, so I could have known the name that would come next even if I didn’t hear it.
“Practical second place, Rain Astral.”
done.
chief and junior. It’s still in the practical part, so it’s not completely confirmed, but it’s rather strange that Rain’s writing skills are so low.
Besides, as soon as I heard the 3rd place, my thoughts changed to conviction.
“Practical third place, Ariane Primal.”
He used magic on me like that, but it seems he managed to win third place.
The news was good news for me. Ariane’s knowledge was focused exclusively on magic, leaving a large gap in general history and common sense.
In contrast, when it comes to knowledge, Lane showed better memory and comprehension than I did.
In particular, the magic part and the history part were erudite enough that I could learn from watching them.
If there were no mistakes, I could have taken the top and bottom seats.
Even while the joy and imagination were unfolding, the instructor called the students by name step by step with his mouth.
“Practical 5th place, Prin.”
there was too
Besides, 5th place is an excellent result for a good Prince even if he has little offensive ability.
It seems that the knights summoned by the church as candidates for sainthood were also excellent.
“Ninth place, Ceres Reinhardt.”
“Top 10, Minel.”
Even though Ceres and Minel were deprived of mana stones by me, they were tucked into S-ranks.
At this level, even if I hadn’t treated you, you would have been able to enter A-class?
The rest of the class A has nothing to do with it.
No, to be precise, I was halfway ignoring who entered the S-rank, unless it was an opponent with a connection to my previous life, such as Prin, Ceres, or Minel.
Oh, but he’ll be there.
When I lived a gloomy life at the academy, she was the only one who reached out to me.
In the first life, I was selected as a hero and I became distant, and in the other life, she was just a friend, looking out for kids like Ceres and Rianne.
I can’t find him here, but if we can meet again at the academy, I want to get to know him again.
Now I don’t have to worry about them… Maybe we can get to know each other a little more comfortably.
“Then I will take a written test after a 10-minute break.”
Anyway, this doesn’t change.
10 minutes break after the practical test. And immediately take the written test.
When I was at the academy, I heard that it was to make sure that I was always in the best condition… I think it’s pure nonsense.
Isn’t it just a harsh act to give a test that is ambiguous to call it a break?
The people who look physically fine seem to be people who haven’t been checked because their mana stones were stolen earlier… Sometimes people who look like aristocrats do look relatively sane than commoners.
They couldn’t even move their hands and feet and only received mana stones.
“Then let’s go to the test site!”
At Xenovia’s words, most of the students sighed or stood up frowning.
It seems to have left a bad impression.
Rain and I both sighed and slowly headed towards the written examination room.
*****
“… … .”
“lane?”
“… … … .”
“Are you asleep?”
After completing the written exam, Lane and I accepted the grade at the time of admission to the academy, along with the graded score in an instant.
I’m the senior and she’s the second.
With the perfect performance, Lane had been running as if she would fly away for joy until just a while ago, but she fell asleep as if she fainted from exhaustion.
It was a good thing for me.
[Check the quest clear!]
[Opening new characteristics to Rain Astral!]
[Status window open!]
The first quest reward was the reward from the quest to spend the academy life together with Lane. I received it then and forgot about it, but it was something like this.
“Status window.”
belt ring ♪
A cheerful notification sound rang.
A blue opaque plate similar to the quest window appeared in front of my eyes, and soon after, my abilities were quantified in front of me like magic.
[Status window]
[Lian Primal]
▷Muscle Strength＜Middle/Middle＞
▷Stamina＜Upper Level＞
▷ Endurance＜Medium to Low＞
▷Magic ＜Middle and Low＞
▷Talent ＜The best＞

▷[]
“characteristic”
▷[The Light of Humanity]
I laughed bitterly at the shabby stats that couldn’t even be compared to the last stats I saw in my previous life.
Even if the situation and the relationship you meet change, this ability will not change even once.
[Light of Humanity]
You are a ray of light that shines on its own in the darkness that will engulf humanity.
*Acquisition of perfect resistance limited to 1 curse.
*Can absorb magic and replace it with magic.
*Qualifications for using the Holy Sword.
It is a characteristic that is just a fruit that has not bloomed yet.
Later, after catching the Holy Sword, this trait that evolves into a proper trait is, to be honest, trash.
Even the ability to replace useful magic with magical energy is useless unless you encounter special monsters with magical energy, demons, or demons.
In addition, the curses are almost instantly killed by the end of the day.
Since I’m not immortal, and there’s no way to survive after being cursed with instant death, it’s actually a perfect trait to believe in that one and leave the world.
“I guess I have to grab the holy sword after all… .”
I really hate that.
If you grab the holy sword, you have no choice but to go to catch the demon king. Honestly, even if the demon army advances, it is not a big deal to suppress the demon king army if the empire puts in a little effort.
If you don’t have a holy sword, you won’t be able to catch the immortal demon king, but it’s enough to wipe out the empire’s army of ordinary monsters.
“Shall we sell the information later?”
The time when the demon king wakes up is probably around the time of going up to the second year, so it should be possible to spill some information during the winter vacation of the first year.
If I don’t hold the holy sword, I’ll suffer a little damage, but if I spread the rumors quickly, it’ll be fine.
“Anyway, let’s look at the lane status window.”
If you properly check your skills and characteristics through the status window, you can develop your lane well.
[lane]
▷Muscle Strength ＜Middle and Low＞
▷Stamina＜Upper Level＞
▷Durability＜Load (lower)＞
▷Magic ＜Middle Upper＞
▷Talent ＜Middle Prize＞

▷[Magic Swordsman]

▷[Flame Wizard]
▷[Sword Hee] NEW!
“what. This trait and skill placement.”
No, the balance is right.
However, if I hadn’t unlocked the new trait called ‘Swordsmith’ through the quest, I probably wouldn’t have been able to use my full power.
“The magic swordsman said that when the balance between swordsmanship and magic is right, both ranks rise one by one during battle… .”
Before meeting me, Rain was no more than two.
Magic was only at the level of remembering what he had learned in his family, and swordsmanship was not taught by anyone at all, so he was using something embarrassing to call it swordsmanship other than just wielding it.
If he had continued his swordsmanship even without meeting me, he would have reached a decent level even if he hadn’t met me, but the limit is clear.
While Rain continues to learn magic from his family, he has to learn swordsmanship from someone, which is not as easy as it sounds.
Besides, the original attribute was originally only one flame mage.
It’s the best attribute that increases the speed of learning limited to the flame attribute and makes even simple non-lethal fire attribute magic look like killing magic… .
Growth was delayed because of the magic swordsman skill.
[Magic Swordsman]
Swordsmanship and magic are balanced.
*Forcibly adjusts the level to the side with low growth.
*Growth speed is increased when two realms are matched.
Good traits were hindered by skills.
But not anymore.
[Geomhee]
All sword gripping actions are compensated.
*The road to the sword castle is open.
The characteristics of a simple yet equally powerful sword also fell into Lane’s hands.
Then, if the balance is right, it is certain that Rain will become stronger.
I should help, but that’s nothing. It would be easier than working with Xenovia, who had no talent… . If it were Rain, there wouldn’t be anything that would force me to sacrifice.
“Yes, you have to be strong.”
The weak are weeded out.
It is the providence of nature. Wasn’t it always like that? If I become weak, even if I have the status of a duke, there will be a guy who will somehow attack me, but if I and everyone around me are strong, will that guy come out?
Even if it does come out, it will be far less than it is now.
will be strong
for my happy future.
