49 Knocking on the Door of the Tues Class (1)
The roommate I was staying with in the trainee dormitory was none other than Heinrich.
‘At least… … .’
As soon as I saw Heinrich, I sighed.
In the novel, Akandel’s roommate is Rufus.
Since Rufus had come to appreciate Akandel after losing the match, they had a pretty good relationship.
I remember that putting Rufus, who has a warlike and honest personality next to him, made the story easier to develop, so it was convenient in many ways.
“Ernas, why do you sigh as soon as you see a person’s face?”
Heinrich looked at me.
His eyes were full of hostility.
It must be because of the resentment that I lost at the non-radio.
Unlike Rufus, Heinrich has a personality that develops a strong hostility towards the beings who defeated him.
But that wasn’t the reason I sighed.
“Don’t stand still and pack your bags. I divided the areas by drawing a line on the floor, so be careful not to cross over into my area.”
“… … .”
Heinrich’s luggage was already in perfect order.
Everything was perfectly angled, and there was not a single piece of dust around it.
“Please be extra careful not to create dust while organizing your luggage. Do you understand?”
“I’ll figure it out… … .”
Heinrich is a huge tuberculosis.
Rather than simply prefer to be clean, it’s part of a perfectionist personality.
I set it up like this because if you give a good character one or two flaws, they will become more human… I regret it now.
‘I’ll listen to some nagging.’
As I was unpacking the luggage that had been moved from the black class 6 dormitory, various bits and pieces were rolled out.
Heinrich lifted his eyes when he saw one of the pencils he had been using in class rolled over.
“Ernas, the pencil is trying to invade my territory. deal with it.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“What’s the rude answer?”
As we were unpacking, a man appeared outside the open door.
It was Rufus Ignias, the representative of the Red 1st class.
“Um, is it Ernas? Looks like the investigation is over.”
“Rupus… … .”
Also, Rufus seemed to have passed the second test at once, just like the novel.
“Ernas and Heinrich are roommates… What a strange combination.”
“Rufus, who are you roommates with?”
“I’m alone. In the first place, there are only three male students here who have passed the second exam.”
Rufus said in a cold voice.
“Gort only injured his wrist while trying. Some of his opponents were excellent, but for some reason, Gort didn’t seem to be able to concentrate very much.”
“… … .”
Probably because of the Carlyle problem.
It is highly probable that he was not able to show his skills because he was worried that the Waldfeld family would be revealed.
‘In the novel, Gort passed the second test without difficulty. The story has changed.’
Is it because I wear too much in front of professors?
Anyway, I will try again on the next test day and come up, but I was worried that it would affect the future.
“Ah, the guy from Black Class 6 called Schmids also tried and failed. The sword is still immature.”
“Are you not hurt?”
“It didn’t look like he was injured.”
“okay… thanks for letting me know.”
If Schmitz had come up, it would have been easier to proceed in many ways, but it was a pity.
Still, if it’s Schmidt, you can try again on the next test day and get promoted.
“Then, what about the female students?”
“The woman… … .”
Rufus crossed his arms and answered.
“Cerine and Berysrize, they both passed the test.”
* * *
“I didn’t know that I would be living in the same room as you.”
“I am of the same opinion, Berrys Rize.”
The third floor of the trainee dormitory, room 304.
There, Serine was talking to Berrys Rize.
“Do you have to share the same room with someone else? We are the only people who have been promoted this time, so there are still plenty of rooms left in the dormitory, right?”
“It’s a rule, so there’s nothing you can do about it.”
“Tt… annoying.”
Berrys Rize shook her head and grumbled.
In fact, Serine also wanted to complain a lot.
Because I’ve always had a bad relationship with Berrys Rize.
‘I don’t think I did anything wrong.’
From Serine’s point of view, Berry’s Rize, who appeared aggressively in every case, was burdensome.
When we met face-to-face at aristocratic events when we were young, we seemed to get along well, but at some point, we started to show hostility to Serine.

Maybe… I remember it around the time Serine got engaged to Ernas.“Anyway, Berrys Rize, now that we have become roommates like this, let’s get along well from now on. Please.”
“Shut up. Don’t talk nonsense.”
As Serine held out her hand, Berrys Rize frowned.
“We are rivals vying for the top spot in the academy. Do I need to get along well?”
“Berislyse, but… … .”
“You said it with your mouth at the time of non-radio. I want to reach the top of the academy.”
Berrys Rize looked at Serine and exhaled.
“If that’s what you think, I’ll see you as a competitor. I’ll make you fall when the opportunity comes, so be prepared.”
Listening to the aggressive voice, Serine sighed.
“All right. Then I’ll use the lower floor of the bunk bed, because I’m afraid I’ll fall by Berries Rize.”
“What?”
When Serine sat down on the lower floor of the bunk bed, Berrys Rize rushed in.
“Who wants?!”
“When the opportunity arises, they say that they will bring it down. It would be difficult to get hit by Berrys Rize while sleeping on the upper floor of the bunk bed, so I will use the lower floor.”
“Wait, I’m scared of falling out of bed too! I’ll use the downstairs!”
“The first person to occupy is the owner, Berisrize.”
“Serine, why are you so always a player… … !”
Pushing aside the rushing Berrys Rize, Serine turned her gaze towards the floor.
‘By the way, I wonder if Ernas’ investigation is over.’
Starting tomorrow, my life as a trainee begins.
I want to join forces with Ernas just like in Black Class 6… There were people like Berris Rize, Heinrich, and Rufus, so even conversing with Ernas in the dorm seemed burdensome.
* * *
‘The good news is that neither Rufus nor Heinrich are cowardly conspirators.’
Lying on the bunk bed upstairs, I was deep in thought.
‘It’s a style that prefers to defeat opponents in a fair game, so you don’t have to worry about getting stabbed while sleeping.’
If there was Gort, some uncomfortable days would have begun.
Because he’s a guy who will take my life whenever he gets a chance.
But Rufus and Heinrich are not like that.
Rufus will want to win a head-to-head fight with me in a formal fight, and Heinrich is like that.
Even if I show my defenseless side, I won’t think, ‘It’s an opportunity!’
‘If this happens, you will have to be more wary of the 6th Great Sword Master itself than the successors.’
Actually, the enemies I have to fight are not the heirs of the 6th great swordsman.
Those guys have already beaten me once, and I am confident that I will continue to dominate.
They are no longer a threat.
The enemies I really need to be wary of are all the six great swordsmiths who want to make the heir of their family the Grand Duke of Lichtenauer at any cost.
‘Extremely speaking, if one of the master swordsmen’s heads came to me right now and wielded the sword… I’m just going to die.’
All the heads of state are top-notch prosecutors.
As a mere lower grader, I can’t really fight back.
‘Of course, they also have a political position, so they can’t do that.’
They are the highest-ranking nobles who lead the imperial society.
You cannot move directly without any justification.
Instead, he will move his men and secretly try to harm me.
‘Already Henry Lancaster and Theodora Waldfeld took my life. It will keep happening.’
Calleon Ignias likes to fight head-to-head like his son Rufus, but he can change his policy depending on the situation.
Eventually I… I have to be strong enough to protect myself from such threats.
‘Later… Even if it clashes head-on with the heads of state, I have to be able to win.’
Thinking so, I touched the Uslecht on my finger.
Then, the abilities you currently have are displayed.
— Provisional Acquisition —
[Partizan Judgment Swordsmanship (S Rank)]
[Lancaster Shortsword (S Rank)]
[Balahail Heavy Swordsmanship (Rank A)]
[Calesius Spear Swordsmanship (Rank C)]
[Liechtenauer Divine Magic (Rank A)]
— Permanent Attribution —
[Eastern Magical Technique (Rank A)]
Here, the Partizan Judgment Swordsmanship, Balahail Heavy Swordsmanship, and Callesius Spear Swordsmanship are exclusive swordsmanships for Graduate.
Lancaster short swordsmanship boasts an S-rank proficiency, but it is not a grade-only swordsmanship and is weak at this point.
From now on, you will be using a true sword instead of a wooden sword, so it will be impossible to break the wooden sword or hold it short and use it like a short sword.
‘It seems that it would be difficult to increase the understanding and transfer it to permanent property… I’ll have to delete the Lancaster shortsword and get another one.’
If so, which one would be better?
It would have been nice to get the swordsmanship from Professor Valentiano I met today, but the penalty for removing the Bastian Knights swordsmanship when obtaining the Balahail Heavy Swordsmanship is not over yet.
Now, the penalty will disappear after 12 days, so you have to go and get someone else’s swordsmanship.
‘Although it is a dedicated swordsmanship for Graduate, I can exert enough power even with low-level magic, and there are many places where I can use it… Yes, it would be better if it was a swordsmanship that was easy to make permanently by increasing the proficiency.’
When I was thinking about the contents of the novel.
Suddenly, Heinrich’s voice came from under the bed.
“Ernas, are you asleep?”
“I haven’t slept yet.”
It was so quiet that I thought he was already asleep, but it seems he was still awake.
“I will be visiting the class from tomorrow. Do you know?”
“Sure.”
The trainee must personally visit a specific class.
Then the class gives lectures, training, and assignments.
And if it is judged that you have received sufficient education, you will receive a certificate of completion.
If you collect enough of these certificates, you can take the 3rd exam.
“It is up to the student to decide which class to visit first among the many classes in the academy. Do you even know this?”
“I know.”
“I’m going to visit Professor Yols’ Yols class first.”
“… … .”
It was surprising.
Yols Class is a new class this time.
Yols himself is a good swordsman, but his class isn’t ready yet.
It’s not a suitable place for Heinrich to visit first, but what’s the reason?
“So you go to another class.”
“What?”
“I don’t want to be trained in the same class as you.”
“… … .”
Heinrich’s voice was full of hostility towards me.
He really doesn’t like going with me.
“You go to a place like Valentiano class. Do you understand?”
“What… I’ll think about it.”
“huh… … .”
Heinrich was quiet again.
In the still room, I fell into thoughts again.
‘Come to think of it, I had to decide where to go tomorrow.’
Shall we talk with Serine tomorrow?
Since many tasks are given, it is more convenient to move with a colleague than to move alone.
‘Let’s be quiet, then I see… … .’
At the same time, I am in need of new strength.
Considering that… It was just a good class.
* * *
the next morning.
Heinrich’s piercing voice echoed in front of the building that had not yet been built.
“What do you think!”
Heinrich looked at me with an incomprehensible expression.
“I must have warned you last night?”
“It did.”
“But why are you here?”
“I said I was thinking about it, I didn’t say I would do what you said.”
Hearing my words, Heinrich opened his eyes.
“This crazy guy… … !”
“Don’t swear. I go first.”
“Hey… … !”
Leaving the angry Heinrich alone, I took the lead and opened the door.
The door of the Yols Class, led by ‘Sword Dragon’ Yols Callesius.
