The Genius at the Swordsmanship Academy chapter 48

48 Episodes 2nd Test with Promotion (4)

“Wow, what are you talking about!”

When it was pointed out that Carlyle had stopped breathing, the instructor hurriedly raised his voice.

“I… Are you saying that you even shut your mouth?!”

“It was the instructor who dared to pick and bring that man out of the many prisoners.”

The academy prepared for about twenty magicians.

Considering the level of the current students, it was a very relaxed number.

“Why did you choose that man for me?”

“That, that… … .”

“There didn’t seem to be any particular order.”

“It’s just a coincidence!”

The instructor tried to make excuses somehow.

“What the hell are you talking about! Are you saying that I purposely brought in Graduate Intermediate and sent it out against you? How is that… … !”

“Instructor, this is not something you are going to argue against me.”

I replied coldly.

“You explain yourself in front of the professors.”

“… … !”

Many professors were already glaring at the instructor.

They are mostly grades above the upper level.

When receiving such gazes from such people, the instructor, who was only a junior in Grade 8, had no choice but to withdraw.

“Hey, how much have you been involved in this?”

“Kyo, Professor, I am innocent!”

When Professor Valentiano insisted, the instructor stepped back.

“Did I bring that mage to the academy? I can’t do that in my power!”

“Then it means that there are other people involved besides you.”

“… … !”

“The magician is already dead, so there’s nothing I can do about it, but interrogating you will reveal something.”

The instructor looked frightened.

To know that the Lichtenauer Swordsman Academy’s interrogation is by no means mild.

“Ugh… … !”

He tried to run away from this place, engulfed in instinctive fear.

But to no avail.

“Stop it.”

“Wow!”

The wooden sword I wielded struck the instructor’s side.

I could feel my ribs breaking in my fingertips.

“Good job, Ernas.”

“I’m sorry for moving like you did.”

“Since you were the closest, of course you have to do it.”

Valentiano looked at me with a happy expression.

You seem to like my behavior.

“Sir, I will investigate this matter.”

“Professor Valentiano, can I leave it to you?”

“I spoke first, so I’ll wrap it up.”

After saying that to Aldbout, Valentiano looked at me again.

“Ernas, I want you to cooperate too, is that okay?”

“All right.”

I have to disclose why I was targeted, so it’s only natural for me to investigate.

However, Valentiano will also have the intention of forming a relationship with me this time.

‘and… … .’

He turned his head to look at the students.

Among the students with various facial expressions, there was a guy with a particularly distinctive expression.

‘Gort guy, you can’t hide your heart.’

The heir of the Waldfeld family, Gort Waldfeld.

He had a clearly perplexed expression on his face.

The reason is simple.

It is because the Waldfeld family is behind this incident.

‘Theodora Waldveld started to move.’

Theodora is Gort’s aunt.

He is also Gort’s swordsmanship teacher, and he is still supporting Gort from outside the academy.

In the meantime, he had been watching Gort’s moves, but he began to intervene directly at the thought that he could no longer leave it to Gort.

‘You must have been impatient to see me win in the non-radio finals.’

We can no longer tolerate Ernas Landsstein’s solo drinking.

Theodora, falling in love with such thoughts, intervened in the second test.

‘Of course, even Theodore wouldn’t have thought that he could kill me here.’

Even if you can’t kill me, it’s okay to injure me.

Just dropping out of the second test is enough to hold me back.

It was with that in mind that this work was designed.

‘It all failed, though.’

I didn’t get any injuries.

It passed the second test without any problems, and it was also revealed that there was a conspiracy in this test.

Now, as the investigation begins, a link to the Waldfeld family will be revealed.

‘Of course, Theodora will cut off her tail in the middle to avoid responsibility.’

Still, the damage is unavoidable.

If you lose the minions planted throughout the academy, it will be difficult to support Gort in the future.

To make up for this, Theodora will try to take other measures, but in the end, it will end up in her own throat.

‘Anyway, there are signs that the fight between the six great swordsmanship masters will intensify.’

The students fight each other in an official match, it’s just like a light sport.

When several families move in earnest, a more bloody battle ensues.

Henry Lancaster opened the first fire by sending an assassin to me, followed by Theodora Waldfeld who planted an assassin in the second test.

More of this will happen in the future.

By defeating them, I must build up my strength so that I can bring down other families with my own hands.

‘I’m going to be promoted for that.’

As I moved under the guidance of another instructor, I looked towards the students of Black 6th class.

Unfortunately, there is no time to regret parting.

They were looking at me with complex emotional expressions.

‘There are people who will meet again soon… Most will not.’

Most of them are extras whose names are not mentioned in the novel.

But after a few months together, they fell in love.

‘Someday, let’s meet again.’

I raised my hand slightly and said goodbye.

No matter what talent they have… I just wanted to do my best and get good results.

The investigation did not take very long.

I know this is from Theodora Waldfeld, but there’s not much I can say.

At this point in time, if Ernas puts unknown information into her mouth, she can’t help but be suspicious.

“Thank you for cooperating with the investigation, Ernas.”

After the investigation was over, I went alone with Valentiano.

“Leave the rest to us, and prepare yourself to become a trainee.”

“thank you.”

New students who pass the second exam and are promoted are called ‘trainees’.

It means that he is a student who has received training as a graduate in earnest.

“Ernas, actually I wanted to talk to you like this.”

“Is that so?”

“It’s because the performance in the last episode was impressive.”

“… … .”

If it was Valentiano, he would have seen through the battle with Heinrich that his ability was beyond the beginning of the grade.

“Ernas, do you have a separate swordsmanship teacher?”

“No one deserves to be called that. I’m just using the swordsmanship I learned at the academy by arranging it in my own way.”

“Hmm… … .”

Valentiano looked at me with a curious expression.

“Then the fighting style is something you invented yourself… It’s amazing.”

“I haven’t figured out the direction yet, so I’m just wandering around.”

“No, I am not saying that. Because it’s pretty great.”

Saying that, Valentiano leaned towards me.

“Anyway, if you are still in the stage of finding a direction, I think I can help.”

“What do you mean… … .”

“Say it outright. Enter the Valentiano class.”

Hearing that, I was a little surprised.

Because I didn’t know Valentiano would come out so aggressively.

In the novel, he did not say this to the protagonist Akandel.

“Professor, the words… … .”

“Of course, now that I am a trainee, it is impossible to belong to a specific class.”

After completing the second exam, trainees experience various classes and receive ‘training’.

And if you pass the 3rd test later, you can select one of the classes you experienced as a trainee and become exclusive to a specific class.

To compare it to the real world, it is similar to experiencing a number of subjects at a university, searching for a major, and then choosing a major that suits your aptitude when the time comes.

“However, if you promise to support the Valentiano class when you pass the 3rd test, I can reserve a seat in advance.”

“… … .”

“And it is possible to help as much as possible at the class level so that the trainee’s life can proceed smoothly.”

Even this alone was a huge treat.

To make such a proposal to a trainee who had just passed the second exam was unusual considering the setting in the novel.

“Professor, please… … .”

“Oh, don’t get me wrong.”

Valentiano smiled.

“I don’t really want you to take over the Valentiano classroom.”

“yes… … .”

“You are the heir to the Landsstein family, one of the six great swordsmiths. I have a lot of work to do after graduation, so I have no intention of asking you to stay at the academy.”

Valentiano explained that, but he was still not at ease.

Because he saw a university professor trying to catch a graduate student from Valentiano.

‘Aren’t you supposed to keep saying things like this and then go back and stay in class?’

The classes at the academy feel like a graduate school lab.

Even after graduating from the academy, it is possible to remain in class with the goal of becoming a professor.

Valentiano is also quite old, and he has to find a successor to take over his class… maybe he’s been stalking me

“Professor, I’m sorry, but… … .”

“Of course, you don’t have to answer me right now.”

Valentiano said with a smile.

“You will want to try different classes and draw conclusions.”

“… … .”

“But keep that in mind. The Valentiano class is the best class in the academy, and taking the elite course in the Valentiano class is the fastest way to the top of the academy.”

At Valentiano’s enthusiastic persuasion, I had no choice but to nod my head.

‘I’m saying you’ll regret it if you fall for it here… … .’

Guided by the instructor, I moved to the trainee dormitory.

The trainee dormitory was a three-story building that was much smaller than the black class 6 dormitory.

From now on, I will stay here and receive education for Graduate in earnest.

“Other students who have passed the second test have already been assigned a room. Let you come in too.”

“All right.”

“All the luggage in the black class 6 dormitory has already been moved.”

After receiving the room key from the instructor, I went into the dormitory.

The girls’ rooms are on the 3rd floor and the boys’ rooms are on the 2nd floor.

‘In the black class 6 dormitory, I could use a single room… What will happen here?’

If there is an odd number of male students who have passed the second test, there is a possibility that they will use a single room, but if there is an even number, it will be a double room without exception.

‘I have a lot of room left now, but it would be nice if I could just use it by myself.’

who would have decided this

… You’re a writer, who are you?

“The room number on the key is… Room 208.”

However, it was impossible to predict roommates based on the contents of the novel, as the novel never described who was in which room.

“… … .”

I stood in front of room 208 and grabbed the doorknob.

And as soon as you open the door… I felt the cool air rushing out of the room.

“It was late. Come on, pack up your stuff.”

Heinrich Agrippa.

He took a seat in the room first, and was staring at me with icy eyes.
