Chapter 105
Chapter 18 – I don’t study before exams
When I woke up in the morning, I was greeted with an unexpected gift.
“What is this!”
I burst into admiration looking at the things piled up like a mountain.
A large amount of herbal and plant-based materials. And the ore of a mineral imbued with magical power.
Materials that could be worth hundreds of gold coins even if you sold them roughly.
It’s a gift from some guys this morning.
“All materials can be gathered in the Forest of Blood.”
“You are really kind. Those tree sprites… … .”
“Because I was thinking of setting fire to the forest if I didn’t return it.”
well, that’s a joke
Because I was sure it would come.
When you clear the quest to contact the Dryads in the Forest of Blood and free them.
Separately, there was a reward for obtaining the favor of the guys and receiving the collections from the forest at regular intervals.
“I didn’t even think they would send it this way.”
From noble mtl dot com
As I looked down slightly, I saw a small dryad dozing in front of a pile of forage in the forest.
A young dryad in the forest.
“First, let’s wake this kid first.”
Since it’s a plant-type monster, this would be better than serving tea or snacks, right?
I brought a watering can, filled it with a mixture of mana potion and water, and sprayed it on the dozing kid.
“… … draft.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. Emily. is this a plant Mixing potions and giving them water is a treat, right?”
It’s a reward in their industry.
As evidence of that, the slightly drooping leaves soon regained their vitality, and the little boy opened his eyes.
[well… … I slept!]
“Okay, did you sleep well? kid.”
[Warlock Human!]
“It’s Xi’an. memorize your name.”
[ah! draft!]
I’ll probably forget it soon. That’s because it’s going to be full.
I lazily sprinkled the little boy with the rest of the watering can and pointed to the collections piled up.
“Did you move all of this?”
[It was hard!]
“… … How did you get it?”
[Like… … crab?]
For some reason, the little boy pretends to push and pull.
I got a little curious and looked around and saw something like a pit inside the piled collections.
“Is it a tunnel?”
How did you dig it? Curiosity peeked into the hole, and I saw a scene where countless tree roots were wriggling.
… … Well, let’s pretend we didn’t see it.
Maybe these guys are similar to moles.
Even in the game, I was wondering how to move things when they arrive from the forest.
Some things are better not to know.
[how is it?]
“Well, if you give it to me, don’t take it well. Tell your people that you were well received.”
[huh!]
Didn’t the little dryad nod his head several times and go into the pit to see if it was time to go back?
… … I trust that you will figure it out.
If I’m caught digging a tunnel under the system, I’ll be sentenced to death, right?
[Bye Bye.]
“what… … Don’t wait for the next gift.”
After sending the little boy back and seeing that the pit was completely backfilled, I took another look at the collections they sent me as gifts.
“The quality is impeccable.”
“It must be quite difficult to make everything into medicine, right?”
“When are you going to prepare each of these as potions?”
If I left it to the current alchemist, he would jump out of the spot and kick me.
“Everything is handled here.”
It radiates demonic energy and spreads it widely, covering the forest’s piled collectibles.
After wrapping it into a hemisphere shape, it is fixed as it is.
“… … Roughly, the image feels like overlapping with both hands.”
“Be moderately conscious.”
After wrapping it up like that, as I concentrated more, the size of the hemisphere gradually decreased.
“Squeeze.”
Using the trick from the previous time when refining a large amount of demonic energy in the Forest of Blood Trees.
As it is, the impurities are burned, and only the purified energy and medicinal effects are filtered out and liquefied, and they are condensed again.
A dark blue, fist-sized mass of liquid formed.
《Highly concentrated medicinal solution》
《Rating: A+》
《It is an undiluted solution prepared by condensing a large amount of medicinal materials. A large amount of mana is compressed, so it would be poison to ordinary creatures.”
But for me it’s just lunch.
A material that can be obtained by refining a large amount of medicinal materials.
Ordinary people could collapse due to mana poisoning in their bodies just by talking about it.
I casually pop it into my mouth.
“I said that you can’t use anything if you pick it up.”
have you never said
It is troublesome to roughly refine, and it is most convenient and effective to consume a large amount of medicine at once.
My body is covered with passive skills such as food digestion and toxic resistance, so the advantage of my body is that I can abuse rather strong medicines without worrying about any side effects.

Well, the medicine is still taking.
“Would you get fat if you ate like that?”
“… … Well, I’ll come up with appropriate measures later.”
How many calories did you actually eat today?
When I was pointed out again about a problem that bothered me, I went to clean up in anguish.
Do not throw away the ashes squeezed out after burning the medicine. I heard that it can be used as fertilizer.
I was thinking about what to do now and a solid plan to spend a leisurely afternoon, when I heard footsteps.
“huh? Today is a day when quite a few guests come.”
Just a familiar sign. That’s for two people.
“… … draft!”
“It’s a big deal!”
Celidia and Alpine.
For some reason, the two girls came to my studio together.
“It’s a big deal. Do you two want to come together?”
They are two people who do not have much contact in the original.
After the outside practice, I witnessed them talking about something when they ran into each other.
What worries me more than that is the somewhat urgent atmosphere.
“Did you say it was a big deal? Alpine?”
“draft! Do you know? Trials are coming for you and for us.”
Okay, no big deal.
“Oh yeah? Doesn’t seem like a big deal. Hurry back before the sun goes down.”
“It’s a big deal!”
Well, if this guy makes a fuss by himself, he’ll ignore it, but if Celidia joins in, he’s probably on some business.
After all, this is a place where really big things often happen.
“what’s the matter? Did the monster serving in the alchemy class jump out? Or is it around the time when the assistant professors’ grudges are about to come out?”
“… … Is there such a thing?”
These are small sub-quests that happen during the game.
It’s probably still happening somewhere in the academy, and someone is running around trying to solve it, right?
me? Don’t do it unless it’s money.
“It’s not like that. … … More important.”
“hmm? more?”
The many incidents and accidents of the academy that will happen at this time that pass through my head at the moment.
However, the reason why the list was suddenly stopped was because the two fell from the pile of luggage they were holding.
textbook.
One of the most frequently used textbooks in the academy.
“… … Oh, was that it?”
“This is it! draft!”
Celidia silently nodded, and Alpine spoke excitedly.
“Do you know? whopping! Midterms are coming up!”
“Of course you know?”
Because I am also a student.
For now, there’s no way you wouldn’t know because you’re pretending to be an honor student.
“so… … . No, I can guess, but don’t ask me specifically. What are you here for?”
“Of course.”
“is it so. Of course.”
The two people, who normally have different behaviors and positions, nodded as if they were joining forces at this time.
“Study some… … .”
“… … Please teach me.”
At that moment, a brief common setting between the two people passed through my head.
The two were idiots whose theories were almost on the verge of failing.
“Okay, are you studying? … . It’s a good time.”
This old man sighs.
Please do it normally.
* * *
Imperial Philos Academy.
Several months have passed since he entered the school, and the class has been conducted to some extent and the external practice event has been completed.
At that point, the academy hopes that freshmen will show full-fledged academic achievement.
“As Xian already knows, we want to take a comprehensive exam twice a year to evaluate the students’ skills.”
“Yeah, I know. It’s a test twice a year.”
I nodded my head repeatedly as I listened to Professor Daniel’s explanation of the upcoming comprehensive exam.
mid-term and end-of-term evaluations.
And now the midterm evaluation is approaching.
“The test within each class is compulsory. Other than that, I can apply for the test of the class I am moderately confident in.”
“okay.”
There is not much difference from the specs of the game.
Mandatory examination of the player’s major class.
Since I am a black magician, I must take the black magic class exam.
And other than that, choose two courses that you are confident in.
It is left to the discretion of the student to choose which subject to choose, such as an alchemy aura class or elementalism.
“It’s discretion to make the wrong choice and go to ruin.”
“Normally I wouldn’t sign up for a damn class.”
“Then the test for the former black magic class is mandatory.”
I glanced around.
The dark magic class classroom is still empty.
“What are you evaluating here?”
“… … black!”
Oh, I didn’t mean to cry.
Well, no matter how you evaluate it, I am first and last in this class. wow, that’s slanted
“In this case, it will be in the form of evaluating Xian’s capabilities and reporting them.”
“Hmm, hmm. Then the test is easy?”
“As expected, it will be difficult. Shall we increase the level of difficulty by about 2 jockeys to match Xian’s level?”
“You don’t look. Are you more cruel than that?”
What is the hard mode for Xian?!
It’s pretty strict in this respect.
“Of course, Xian, I’m asking you in advance, but it would be better not to try cheating using a familiar.”
“… … hot.”
“Were you thinking of doing that too?”
carrot!
In fact, I thought it was possible, and I was probably judging that it was almost impossible.
Anyone other than Professor Daniel would think of cheating by having Emily do it.
“oh? What do you think you would do if you were not noticed?”
“… … Most professors can detect the presence of the devil.”
Professor Daniel explained to Emily, who protested that she was dissatisfied with her work.
Most of the professors have the skill to detect the presence of spirits or demons.
Not to mention, there are artifacts prepared to prevent this in the exam hall.
“In short, if only that could be faked.”
“… … draft?”
“Well, I will endure this year.”
“this year… … Is?”
Please look forward to next year.
Well, let’s put off solid cheating plans for future pleasure. Still, it’s the first test, so you have to be sincere.
Yes, life should be sincere. Whoops.
“If you make a mistake, the teacher will not take your side. … … Actually, I didn’t mean to talk about this.”
Professor Daniel sighed lightly.
“I roughly understood the exam schedule and rules.”
“Actually, I have something else to talk about. … … It’s about the test I just explained.”
“… … yes?”
The back of my neck is cold.
It’s an annoying feeling.
“Sadly, there are no students in our class.”
“I don’t have one.”
“So my evaluation alone is somewhat lacking in objectivity to grade Xi’an… … Right, no, I had an opinion.”
… … Who said that they had a fight now?
Another public magic department? There are only them!
“So in the case of Xian… … The decision to take three subclass tests… … .”
“… … .”
that’s too much
Academy is too much for me.
“… … .”
“Oh no, Xian? Did the teacher protest?”
“… … .”
It’s so sad.
