Academy Munchkin Enslaved

8 – Detected x at once.

“No! The male slave calculated seven Lightning Spears at once!”

“Stop it now. So are you still alive? How do we defend the 7 Lightning Spears with our skills.”

‘The pitiful bastards… To think I’m in the same class as those who can’t even calculate defensive magic properly.’

A little commotion in the morning.

A certain male cadet in the same class as Lorraine was found on the street in the morning with his pants all over the place.

When the professor asked why he was doing that, he kept telling nonsense about male slaves threatening him with seven Lightning Spears.

Originally, it was a matter that could have been punished for reasons such as leaving the dormitory without permission and performing lewd acts.

Because he kept talking nonsense so much, the professor was bothered, so he ended up at the penalty line.

It would have been an incident that would have turned the continent upside down if the real slave had operated seven Lightning Spears.

‘That old man? It’s ridiculous.’

There was no way that the man who had only a handsome face and a stocky body trained through labor would do that.

No one knew why that cadet was lying on the street tired from dawn, but no one believed that nonsense.

Because he was a low-level cadet like a bully in the first place, it seemed like it was just going to be a small happening.

“Great, great! Awesome!”

Instead of Jilin Nam’s nonsense, what caught the attention of the class was a cadet who opened the door and entered the class.

Why does this guy or that guy have no dignity at all?

Lorraine, fed up with the low level of the cadets, struggled to ignore the noise and turned her attention to the contest she was focusing on these days.

“Contest, the correct answer came out!”

“Really? That’s great. Was it too fast?”

“That’s not what’s important. The correct answer is… “

The news that the correct answer to the contest question has come out.

For Lorraine, it was news that aroused interest rather than irritation.

I’m sorry that the figurine was taken away, but it was a complicated magic circle that Lorraine wasn’t sure she could solve on her own.

Certainly, solving the magic circle in such a short time was proof that he was truly a genius.

It was natural for a wizard to be interested in such a genius.

“The correct answer is… I don’t know who! You submitted your answer anonymously!”

‘Eh?’

It was definitely surprising news.

A huge amount of prize money and recognition that can be obtained just by winning a prize in the competition.

If you are a student with a low grade, it was an opportunity to raise your grade at once.

It must be a good specification not only in the academy but also after graduation.

Abandon all the profits and submit the answer anonymously?

If you were an academy student, no one would come up with such an idea.

It couldn’t have been an outsider’s prank. In the first place, unauthorized outsiders are not allowed to enter the academy building.

It couldn’t have been a trick of a bad professor. It was because there was no way a professor would do such a thing in the first place, and there was no precedent like that.

“Who the hell… ?”

In fact, most of the cadets were not very interested in the competition, but this news was very useful to draw their interest.

For a while, speculation about the anonymous correct answer would be rampant.

There is strength in this! While doing this

“Ahh… It’s unfortunate though. I am curious.”

It was that anonymous cadet that made even Lorraine curious about his identity.

‘If I knew who it was, I would at least ask about it… ‘

***

“Are you really saying that there is no one among them!”

The afternoon of the day when the correct answer in the competition came out. After all lectures are over.

At the time when the cadets were engaged in after-school activities, all the professors of the academy were called by the president and gathered together.

The reason was, of course, the contest.

“It’s a 5th tier magic! And that too in such a short time! Among them, is there anyone who has the confidence to calculate this magic circle in such a short period of time?”

If you become a professor at the academy, you will of course know how to use some of the 5th tier magic.

However, that does not mean that any magic can be calculated easily if it is a 5th tier magic.

For example, let’s say there is a wizard who studied and calculated the fifth-tier Hellflare magic for a long time.

He will be able to use Hellflare in real combat by repeatedly studying and embodying the arithmetic process.

However, that does not mean that you will be able to handle other 5th tier magic equally well.

If he wants to use another 5th tier magic, for example Lightning Storm, it means he has to study the Lightning Storm’s magic circle again.

The calculation method of each magic circle is completely different depending on the combination, so you have to perform a new calculation every time you learn a magic.

Therefore, there are only 5 wizards on the continent who can use all of the 5th tier magic that has been revealed so far, and even they can only use some of the 6th tier magic.

There are quite a few talented professors at the academy, but only one wizard was able to use all of the 5th tier, the president.

“But, President. There might have been someone who knew this magic in the first place… “

“That doesn’t mean that being a cadet makes no sense! Rare magic, which few professors can use, was asked as a question, and how did the answer come out so quickly!”

The magic circle presented in this contest looks like a 4th tier magic, but it is actually a 5th tier magic.

There are 4 skeletal magic circles around the edges of the magic circle, but it was a rare type of magic circle where one skeletal magic circle constituted two magic circles.

Usually, it would take a long time just to realize that this magic circle is a 5th tier magic.

And since the contest had the upper limit of 4th tier magic at the highest level in the first place, in fact, this question was no different from a question asked not to be solved.

“But, President, why would the professor bother to do this… “

“That’s why it’s frustrating. I am now! Who the hell is the cadet who calculated this magic circle? Since each of them has their own class, you can tell by looking at their handwriting!”

All circumstances said that there was a cadet who calculated this 5th tier magic in a short period of time.

But the problem is that the cadet hid his name.

In some cases, it meant that there might be someone disguised as a cadet, so the academy had to find an anonymous correct answer.

“As I said, if there is a talented person disguised as a cadet among the cadets, it could become a big issue depending on the case. For example, those bastards in the western seas. It just means that if you have a genius cadet, it’s a good thing, but if you don’t, you have to prepare. So,”

Make sure to find the owner of this handwriting.

The president firmly declared, but the professors all sighed.

Because none of them were written in the handwriting of the cadets in the class they were in charge of.

Really, no professor could guess who answered correctly.

But only one of them, Professor Lydia, saw the handwriting and had a slightly different idea.

‘I think I saw it somewhere… Certainly not a cadet in our class. I don’t remember… ‘

I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere, but no matter how much I think about it, I can’t remember.

Actually, the cadets’ handwriting is what they see every day, so I had to check it out at once.

However, it was the first time in my long teaching career that I felt as if I had seen or touched it like this.

“Then who the hell are you talking about!!!”

‘Even we don’t know, damn it… ‘

In the end, the professors dispersed without any professors being able to give an answer.

***

‘I’m tired. I-doing it like this?’

I secretly submitted the correct answer the night before, and regretted it in one day.

Because I thought that if I submitted an answer anonymously, the contest would continue until the correct answer came out, of course, or it would just be ignored.

Certainly, it was an interesting idea to use only 4 skeletal magic circles pretending to be in the 4th rank.

Honestly, other than that, there was nothing particularly difficult.

It’s probably because it’s a 5th tier magic pretending to be a 4th tier magic, so it’s not like they’re making a fuss like this.

Contrary to my expectations, this contest must have been a very important event.

From my point of view, it’s not that difficult, so I just couldn’t bear to reveal my level in a moment of arrogance.

It became such a big event that all the professors of the academy were gathered.

“I need to clean up quickly and go to the library… It sucks.”

The reason I knew that all the academy professors had been summoned was because the conference room was the cleaning area I was in charge of.

It is a space that is often used by professors and student council executives during the day, so it must be cleaned after school, but today, due to the president’s summons order, we couldn’t clean it in time and waited like this.

Thanks to the resounding sound of the president’s voice from inside, I was able to know the situation in the conference room even if I didn’t want to know.

“No way… Won’t you notice?”

I didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow it seemed like it would be quite annoying if I was caught.

You may be misunderstood like when you were first summoned here, but your innocence will eventually be revealed.

However, it seemed that the person who answered correctly would be treated as a nuisance, even if it wasn’t me.

“Never… You shouldn’t get caught.”

Well, no one would think that I did it anyway.

A worthless slave, 5th tier magic? It was impossible in this world’s common sense.

I calmed myself down like that and waited for the president’s nagging to end.

And by the time I somehow regained my composure in my heart and got used to waiting.

“You?”

“Yes?”

“Contest. Answer. Is it you?”

I sensed that I was being xed at once by a voice I heard from somewhere.

Those who said it would be okay no matter what happened, the composure they had barely regained was of no use.
