Episode 105. End of Month Rating (4)
Some jockeys whose faces change moment by moment after looking at the poster.
They were the ones who put their names on the bottom list.
The cold voice of the man with glasses flowed into their ears.
“When the zeros were banished, were you relieved that they weren’t zeros?”
The man with glasses held a fishy sneer.
“But what about this? From what I’ve seen, there doesn’t seem to be that much difference between the 0 points that went first and the ones written here?”
Saying that, the man with glasses chinned the poster.
From 201st to 232nd.
Among them, the 201st place at the top was 150 points.
201st place is like that, so what about below that?
232nd was only 10 points.
In response, Angyeongnam declared.
“As of now, 32 people ranked from 201st to 232nd are expelled from the cradle.”
“… … ?!”
Again, a big shock.
“What are you doing? If you want to catch up with those who came before you, you will have to run diligently from now on, right?”
At that mocking tone, 32 pale-faced people started running.
There were only 200 left in the 50th group, which used to have 300 people like that.
Glasses man looked at the remaining riders and said.
“With this, this 50th class set another record, most passers of all time, most zeros of all time, and most outcasts of all time. The King of the Three Crowns… That’s amazing.”
No one could argue against that sarcastic tone.
“There are probably some lucky ones among those left here, especially the 200th.”
At that point, one jockey flinched.
“Maybe it will be your turn next.”
The jockey’s complexion, which flinched at that point, turned white.
After such a large-scale deportation, the man with glasses evoked the atmosphere.
“Then, shall we begin the proper presentation in earnest now?”
As soon as the words were finished, the Black Swordsman took out another piece of paper and held it up.
Seruk-.
The paper the Black Swordsman opened was just a small piece of paper the size of a stationery.
The Black Swordsmen began attaching them to the bottom of the central bulletin board.
Just like that, a total of 5 sheets of paper were glued together in a row.
But the paper was so small that you couldn’t even see the name unless you got close to it.
As some of them poked their heads out to see this, the man with glasses waved his hand.
“Anyway, the things written here are also insignificant. If you’re going to check, check later.”
Just-!
“Now, this is the most important thing.”
When the man with glasses snapped his fingers, the black swordsman opened the paper again.
However, the size was insignificant.
flutter -.
Indeed, a large piece of paper fluttered in the air.
It was so big that I wondered if it was a small quilt.
The Black Swordsman added it to the center of the bulletin board, above the list of outcasts.
chin-.
A large poster was added as if to erase the existence of the outcast.
As large as it was, the name and score were written on it, large enough for anyone to see from afar.
That’s just 10 names.
Some who saw this thought.
‘This must be… Doesn’t it feel like those 10 people are crushing the other 190 people?’
The names of 10 people stuck in the middle.
And the names of 190 people stuck under it.
font and paper size.
and where to attach it.
This was the image of the top 10 names crushing the remaining 190 people.
After posting the grades like that, the man with glasses looked back at his 50th class and said.
“Additional points based on performance will be paid to your bank account. So, the top 10 people set up an account… In the future, additional points will be paid to the account like this time, so jockeys aiming for the top 10 should also make an account in advance.”
In addition, the man with glasses added mockery.
“Of course, there is no need to make people who will be buried underneath for the rest of their lives. It’s a waste of time.”
After leaving those words, the Black Swordsmen disappeared in a rush just like when they came.
The Black Swordsman left, but the remaining 50th class could not easily escape from the shock of the first evaluation at the end of the month.
They laughed as if they were frustrated.
“Exile.”
“In the future, the lower ranks will continue like this… Will you be banished?”
“Ha ha, damn it.”
The disadvantage of being expelled from the lower ranks.
The riders felt fear at the resoluteness of the Black Swordsman, who did not even give them a chance to recover.
But what was more frightening was the fact that from now on, I had to take this kind of end-of-month evaluation every month.
As a result, the complexion of those currently in the lower ranks became pale.
On the other hand, those who wanted to be ambiguous about whether their grades were in the lower ranks or not, flocked to Ur through the bulletin board.
Even if it wasn’t that, people who were curious about how much points they gave would stay in the rankings flocked to the bulletin board.
Then, with that information, I will prepare for the evaluation at the end of the next month.
Of course, it was unclear whether the information would be useful for the evaluation at the end of the next month.
As I approached the bulletin board one by one, most of the 50 groups were crowded in front of the bulletin board before I knew it.
Otherwise, there were only 10 people who fell far away.
They were the ones with their names written on the bulletin board so large that it didn’t matter if you looked at them from a distance.
Each rider in the top 10 had a different reaction.
Nellie Blanc let out a small sigh of relief.
’10th place, I barely did a pull-up.’
Angry Eric Redman.
‘under? Ninth place with only a thousand points difference!’
Schlemann Hans rejoices.
‘hahahaha, I thought someone would give 50,000 points!’
Olga Moros is satisfied with her grades.
‘7th place… Not bad.’
Ivan Baskin doesn’t show much emotion.
‘Sixth place.’
Class Clarice doesn’t believe in her grades.
‘… Even with 300,000 points, it’s only 5th place?’
and.
‘ah… … .’
Gunter Irons in fourth place, who seems to be lost somewhere.
However, there were others who reacted more violently than anyone else.
“Wow, I tried not to care about grades… Does this piss you off?”
Arm in arm with Arin.
“hungry!”
Kheung-!
Poppy snorts as if agreeing.
Their names were written right above Gunther, proudly tied for second place.
And their point is… … .
2nd place. Arin Helga / 1,000,000 Points
2nd place. Bobby / 1,000,000 points
It was 1 million points.
It’s the same thing.
Considering that fourth place Gunther has 500,000 points, 1 million points was a huge amount indeed.
And it was natural for them to be angry because they spent so many points and placed second, but there was another reason why they were so angry.
“Ah, go up.”
“hungry!”
I didn’t know that the two people’s gazes would come down to the top of the report card.
There was a very obvious name stuck there.
1st. glass holland
And the points written next to it.
The point that made Arin and Poppy angry is none other than… … .
1,000,001 points
… was
However, 1 point.
No, only 1 point.
As a result, Arin and Poppy, who staked 1 million points, were pushed down to a tie for second place.
When the two of them are struggling like that.
A whistle was heard beside them.
“Pooh!”
As Poppy and Arin turned their heads, there was a glass that covered their mouths.
His eyes were curved like crescent moons.
It was a face that seemed to hold back a smile.
“pooh… … .”
I tried to keep my mouth shut and hold it back, but in the end I burst into laughter.
“Puhahahaha! Fuhehehehe!”
I laughed so coolly that tears welled up.
he grabbed the boat
“No, did you really put in 1 million points? Could it be that? really? Phuhuhh!”
Yuri laughed hard while pointing at Arin and Poppy and pushed them away.
At this, Arin’s face was full of annoyance.
‘… Why?’
Yuri’s face revealed after cutting her hair was definitely beautiful.
But why… … .
‘Isn’t there a single pretty corner to look at?’
If you’re acting mean like that with a face like that normally, you’d probably be slightly annoyed just by looking at that face… … .
‘If he makes fun… More annoying.’
It was more irritating, less resourceful, and more nasty.
she asked briskly.
“Oh, how did you know?”
“what? ah! How did you know you and Poppy would bet a million points?”
“huh.”
“just.”
“just?”
Arin’s annoyance at the sound of ‘just’ is about to grow.
Soon after, her irritation subsided at Yuri’s explanation, which poured like a rapid-fire cannon.
“Yeah, just, because of your personality, grades won’t matter much, but points won’t be so important either. It seemed like I was going to register about half of the points I had roughly when I judged it comprehensively.”
“ah… … ?”
“If the 2.65 million points you received from me are your entire fortune, half of them are 1.325 million points. Maybe Poppy would have risked it all… … !”
“… … ?!”
“If it were Arin who clings to Poppy, he would say, ‘Hey, let’s just go for 1 million points neatly!’ and ignore the prohibition of speech or collusion, and register the 1 million points amicably… … .”
“… … ?!”
“… I only spent one point more than that.”
Ossu goosebumps rose from the arms of Poppy and Arin at Yuri’s explanation, which was barely breathing.
They slithered away from the glass and looked terrified.
“Bae, are you hungry?”
“you you?! Ooh, did we follow you?”
Arin’s voice trembled with surprise.
That’s because everything Yuri said was true.
Even Poppy was willing to stake 1,325,000 points.
In addition, he himself said, ‘Let’s do it with 1 million points!’
It was the bare truth.
“What’s the point of following it, just looking at it roughly, you get an estimate.”
At that blunt tone, Arin and Poppy were at a loss for words.
By this point, the anger had completely subsided.
No, this was nothing to be angry about.
If you analyzed it to this extent and raised it by just one point to take first place, you should acknowledge it and give it a round of applause.
In fact, Poppy and Arin were already clapping their hands.
clap clap-.
Shrugging her shoulders for no reason, Yuri scratched the back of her head.
“Ah, it’s a bit embarrassing when you compliment me like that. Ehehehe.”
“So, glass fortune teller. When can I get married?”
“Before asking about marriage, start dating, sister.”
“hungry?”
It was when the three of Yuri, Arin, and Poppy were arguing.
There was a low voice that broke through them.
“Yuri Holland.”
Yuri turned his head at the voice calling him.
“huh?”
There, Gunter with a hardened impression was standing in Odokani.
As if the name ‘Yuri Holland’ belonged to him, Gunther gave a small sigh as he looked at the black-haired boy who turned his head away for granted.
“… her.”
He asked softly with complicated eyes.
“… Why are you, why are you here?”
And to that question… … .
“Ah?”
Yuri’s head tilted sharply at once.
He openly reveals an expression as if this is bullsh*t right now.
