“Huh!”
Sparks flew with a crackling sound.
Whoops!
A swordsman who was violently wielded.
Also, electric current bounced from the sword, scorching all sides black.
Retrieving the sword, he stretched out his hand, widening the distance.
Paget!
A blue electric current gathered in his hand.
Kwaaang!
It went in a straight line and created a huge pit in the training ground.
haha… .”
Sweat drips down like crazy.
His hair was wet, as if he had just taken a shower, and his clothes were all wet, as if he had taken a shower with his clothes on, revealing his toned body.
He took off his top as if even that was getting in the way and started swinging his sword again.
Thirty minutes, an hour, two hours.
It wasn’t until three hours later that he stopped swinging his sword.
“Haha… . mandible… .”
He slumped down.
Karl Franz continued to let out heavy breaths.
My heart ached as if it would break, and the muscles throughout my body were spasming like crazy.
ha!
In the end, he couldn’t stand it and was lying on his back, struggling to control his breathing.
“… … .”
Carl slowly regained his composure.
Carl raised one hand and stretched it toward the sky.
Dig!
He clenched his fists tightly.
As if in response, sparks flew around him.
Carl’s growth was simply amazing, and it wasn’t enough to express it in words.
He gave up on the Circle while learning Chandra’s Lightning.
All of his rings, which had reached 6 circles, disappeared in an instant.
then now.
‘half dozen.’
The rings felt in his heart were six again.
It was successful in regaining the state he had in the past.
That alone could be said to be a growth worthy of the flagship.
It would take forty or fifty years for a mage or knight with ordinary talent to reach the 6th circle.
Even that was only applicable to those who started training deliberately at a very young age, under the age of ten.
It takes twenty to thirty years for those who are said to have special talents to reach the 6th circle.
It is only when the Hero Academy graduates earnestly finish their classes and graduate that they become the 6th Circle.
Although it is said that it is a level that he stepped on once, he gave up on the circle.
How long did it take for him to regain the 6th circle
‘Two months.’
It was really, all I can say was crazy.
Swoop.
The knife raises itself.
However, the face of Carl who had done this great job was frustrated.
why… .”
it was a complaint
why… .”
Swoop.
He clenched his fist in the air.
“Aren’t you overly greedy”
Then there was someone approaching.
Although it couldn’t be said that his whole body was soaked like a knife, it seemed like he had undergone quite a hard training.
“Elaine.”
It was Elaine.
“It’s 6 circles in two months.”
With one wave of her hand, a chair made of wind appeared in the empty training ground.
Elaine sat on it, put her hands on the armrests of the chair, and bit her chin.
That’s something that’s hard to find anywhere on the continent.
She’s right.
Even Chris, the no-bong genius, said he was still in the 4th circle.
Of course, he has a certain advantage, but considering that he gave up the circle and stood at the same starting point, Carl really did a great job.
“But what are you so upset about”
Carl’s face that he doesn’t understand.
“Circle 7… .”
The expression on Carl’s face was thirst.
“I want to move on to the 7th circle.”
One step further, I want to grow.
However, Carl was in a state of stagnation.
No matter how hard I try, I can’t break the wall of Circle 7.
under.
Elaine’s empty breath seemed absurd.
“Are you saying that because you don’t know What most humans can’t cross is the wall of the 7th circle. Even at the Hero Academy, there are only a handful of kids who are in the 7th circle.”
7th circle.
It could be said that it was the realm of a full-fledged superman.
Circle 7 is something that cannot be reached with time alone and cannot be crossed for the rest of one’s life unless one’s talents follow it.
Carl wanted to be that 7th circle.
“Elaine.”
Carl calls Elaine.
“We don’t have much time.”
What… .”
“It’s third grade.”
It is different from Terran’s first and second year students.
Third year Carl and Elaine.
“Now I can learn properly.”
You couldn’t learn anything from Terran in the past, but it’s different now.
There is plenty to learn.
Students except for the 3rd grade will be able to take classes in Terran for at least a year and a half in the future.
But the 3rd year themselves.
“A little over half a year left.”
Less than a year left.
“I will make the most of that time. Then… .”
Swoop.
A sword that raises the body.
“You have to do your best.”
He drew his sword again.
It is the realm of miasma and madness.
ha.
Elaine also stopped nagging him.
instead.
“Do it together.”
She was standing together.
She also had the same thoughts as Carl, only in different degrees.
“Did you call Vice Principal.”
Carl entered the vice principal’s office and nodded.
knife. Come on. Have a seat.”
Originally, Carl was the crown prince of the Franz kingdom, and Reize was a daughter of the Arden family, who had enemies in Franz, although he was considered a hero.
Then, regardless of age, it was Reize who had to be polite, but this was the academy.
– Please treat me comfortably at the academy.
Because of Carl’s request, Reyes was also treating him comfortably.
“How are you these days”
Carl’s expression wrinkled a little at Reize’s words.
“… … .”
It was Carl who did not usually show his emotions well, and he was always a man who never lost his smile and smile.
kind and gentle.
That was Karl Franz.
But now the emotions show.
Even if he quickly regained his original face, Reize was not going to miss that subtle change.
“You are very impatient.”
At Reize’s words, Carl finally let out a sigh.
“Honestly, yes.”
“Is it because of the wall in Circle 7”
Yes.
Carl says.
“It feels like being surrounded by a tall wall. Seeing the ceiling is even more problematic. I think I can get over it if I want to get over it, but it won’t be easy.”
Reize laughed at Carl’s words.
“It will.”
She also crossed the 7th circle wall.
Because one of the minimum criteria for taking the hero’s test was the 7th circle.
At that time, she was also frustrated like a knife.
“Karl, being able to see the ceiling means you’re already ready to go over it.”
“… … !”
“But I don’t think that haste will do you any good.”
At Reize’s words, Carl clenched his fists.
However… .”
The knife is in a hurry.
Time on Terran is coming to an end.
After graduating, you have to take the hero’s test right away.
Most of the candidates do luck, third, shooter, and more, but it will be as difficult as that because of Carl’s circumstances.
Crown prince.
It is not possible for the crown prince of the kingdom to fail the first test and continue to take the hero test.
-once.
It was the only chance Carl was given.
In addition.
‘It has to be.’
You have to be a hero yourself.
Only then… .
‘Terran can survive.’
Terran is maintained.
Terran, who had appointed the demon lord Louie as principal.
I can’t even imagine the pressure that will come towards Terran after the vacation after the first semester.
At that time, you must give a reason to convince the continent.
Carl thought it would be him.
knife.
Yes.
you… .”
Rayze spoke carefully.
“Do you want to be a hero or a king”
This is a sensitive and sensitive question.
“You will be a hero. Then you will become king.”
But Carl’s answer was firm.
The one who never gives up on anything.
“You are greedy.”
Reize laughs bitterly.
It was because I could imagine how rough the road Carl would have to walk in the future.
However.
“The Vice Principal.”
Rather, Carl looked at Reize and said.
“You don’t have to turn around like that.”
indeed.
Carl had already noticed.
“You have something to say to me didn’t I tell you I am a student, and the vice principal is a teacher. Feel free to tell me anything.”
Rayze nodded slowly.
knife… .”
The question to ask now is a very difficult and frightening one.
perhaps.
‘Karl Franz, a story that could affect his entire life.’
I thought and thought and thought.
Should I tell this story or not
However.
“Every choice is yours.”
Reese thought.
A good teacher is a teacher who gives multiple options, not forcing a choice.
that’s why it says
revenge.
“… … !”
“Do you want to”
Auditorium in the classroom wing.
The 3rd grade A class was gathered there.
It was a strange feeling to see the 3rd grade A class, with only five seats, gathered in the auditorium, which was always full.
“… … .”
The 3rd grade A class was also aware that it was a special situation and was nervous.
It was none other than the headmaster, Louis Chambelle, who called them today.
“Everybody shouldn’t be so nervous.”
Carl speaks with a resolute attitude.
“Originally, I would have been called alone.”
At the beginning of the semester, only Karl Franz belonged to the class called the 3rd year upper class.
However, Elaine joined, and the class was reorganized, and the students who were recognized for their potential were transferred to Class A.
so five.
“I can’t even imagine how nervous I must have been. But with you guys, I can be a little less nervous.”
Carl smiles.
“So don’t be nervous either. Because we are together.”
eww… .”
Elaine waves her hand.
“It’s cringing.”
Elaine curled her fingers as if squeezing them.
“But you are right.”
It’s a sound that people who don’t fit in with the cheesy look at the form.
Carl is not that kind of person.
each sincere.
It also had a dignity and demeanor that would not be taken lightly.
what that man is saying
‘It’s cool.’
It was a different approach.
“Who says you’re nervous”
knife. you are there.”
Same with other students.
In the midterm exam, the whole of the 3rd graders moved under the command of the sword like one body.
It was like passing through a kind of small battlefield.
Passing the battlefield was the gift of a deep bond.
“Thank you for saying that.”
Carl smiled, but it soon faded.
that buck
It was because in the silence where even a small breath could be heard, the steady footsteps could be heard.
light yet heavy
also afraid
It was Louis’ footsteps.
Louis finally appeared on the podium.
But he wasn’t alone.
“You’re Vice Principal Reize, aren’t you”
Vice-principal Reize.
“Even Mr. Uetra”
Three different combinations of people.
so that.
gulp.
It was true that I was a bit more nervous.
Still, the students of Class 3 A didn’t know why they were called.
“It won’t take long.”
Louie opens his mouth.
“The reason I called you today is… .”
A tired and annoyed face.
His mouth slowly opens and he speaks.
“To explain how your final exam grades are evaluated.”
“… … !”
“You… .”
Louie says.
“The mission rating is 100 percent.”
