Avoid Former Co-Workers

chapter 18



18 – 18. End of Semester Assessment (6)

They made them climb a rock wall and cross a river.

Even if the first stage test was gentle, it was to climb a rock wall about 8m high.

The horse is a hill. In fact, wouldn’t it be a cliff for someone who can’t keep an eye on his face like a rabbit facing a beast right next to him?

‘I came down well though.’

Anyway, Rhenias seemed to have a fear of heights.

He had a noticeable reaction just by looking down, so it was clear he hated heights.

However, what is even more remarkable is that he overcame it himself.

If I had been in the same situation, I might not have overcome it.

“I had a hard time.”

It was so amazing, but the professor who taught me, who was a beginner, once said this.

Because the praise you receive after achieving that level of achievement is quite valuable.

Her At best, she was nothing more than a review of using her body like her real battle to me, but she was the worst condition for her.

“hehehe… Thank you.”

Seeing her shyly smiling face, she finally returned to the face she had seen so often.

You did a good job of complimenting me.

“Junon, Renias. I acknowledge that you two have passed the 3rd stage test. I will take you to the next location, so follow me.”

An instructor waiting at the bottom of the hill will guide you to the next test site.

The end-of-semester evaluation is a total of four steps.

I was a little curious about what kind of bizarre test the last one was going to be. It’s a test given by that eccentric Professor Meuniher…

I followed the instructor and soon came to a thick forest.

“All that’s left is to camp in this place. First, take a look at the pocket watch you were given at the beginning.”

I actually touched it because I was wondering why pocket watches were being paid, and I had already figured it out without listening to the explanation.

This watch with two buttons is simply a watch, but if you don’t press the button, no function works.

You can’t see it as a watch unless you use it in the first place.

“Pressing the upper button shows the time, and pressing the lower button changes the contrast of the watch to indicate day and night…”

In other words, since the clock notifies the day and night and the time, it was said to use it for camping.

Just in case, I consulted with Rhenias in the 2nd stage test, held down the lower button, took a break for about 30 minutes until it became brighter, and then took the next test.

“The time you have to spend is three days, so you can rest at night for three hours and work during the day. Any questions?”

“”No.””

The time to spend camping in the final exam is three days.

It is difficult to take 3 days due to time constraints, so 1 hour is set as a day.

Thus, it must be said to take a break for 3 hours day and night.

I thought it would be an absurdly easy test this time too, but it seems that I don’t even need to use my body this time.

What kind of thoughts are in Professor Meuniher’s brain?

No matter what, since my body worked out, I think I can just set up the provided tent, take a break, and get out of the test site.

I can’t seem to find anything more helpful here anyway.

“In 10 minutes, the test of the two begins.”

I thought it was pretty easy for my last exam as a sophomore.

…Yes. At this time, I only knew that it was easy.

***

He is almost 2m tall and his bulging muscles, left over from long training, are reflected behind his sweat-soaked clothes.

A student named Goden quietly bowed his head to the director and Professor Meuniher and left the exam hall.

“Perfect. That guy must be in Class A.”

“…I think so too.”

Professor Meuniher appointed a director who had no acquaintance with Goden at Hardia, so that there would be no violation of equity.

I got high marks in most of the items, and the only deduction was that the pair was torn, but it was a record without any superfluities.

Not only did he have no luck with his partner, but he brilliantly defended the honor of being an honor student of Hardia, who was immediately put into the battlefield.

‘The same goes for the remaining ones.’

60% Of the 1st and 2nd year students were at the level of failing grades, but the other 40% did not.

There were also people who put forward their own beliefs or values. There is nothing to criticize except that they were slower than those who came before them.

Considering that there is virtually no time limit, there is almost no reason to criticize it.

Isn’t it fortunate among misfortunes? Thanks to that, one side of Professor Meuniher’s heart, which was filled with fire, sank.

“Um… Professor Meuniher.”

The time when his worries subsided for a moment. At this timing, about six coaches approached Professor Meuniher, who was looking at the evaluation records.

With an expression as if something had happened.

“Something.”

Professor Meuniher, sensing something ominous, asks again.

And somehow his intuition is not wrong.

“It looks like the weather has been implemented in the test site…”

Ah. With a sigh, he immediately made a connection between the climate and geography of Mount Utulum, and Professor Meuniher covered his eyes with his free left hand.

“You mean it’s raining?”

“…Yes.”

Professor Meuniher was the one who created the object called Thalbrt Acc, but the climate was still a sensitive part to control, so I didn’t touch it.

Leaving aside the unfinished features, the biggest stumbling block is that students haven’t finished all the tests.

There were people who had already finished the exam and left, and if they set the exam date again and proceed, there was a high possibility that the current results would change.

‘Vira…’

Professor Meuniher, who was touching his chin, thoughtfully recalled the criteria for end-of-semester evaluation and test scores.

Patience. How far can you go while refraining from using magic?

Direction. Can you doubt what the intention of this test was and what purpose it had.

Cooperative spirit. How did you bond with your partner on the test?

And the last criterion.

Judgment. How will you deal with difficulties during the exam?

The rain was no different from a difficulty for the students.

“Proceed as it is.”

As the end-of-semester evaluation was about to go ahead, the six directors tried to convince Professor Meuniher that it would still be too much for the students.

But he didn’t care and decided to change the rules of the test immediately.

“If there are students who want to give up, let them be considered as having taken the exam up to level 4. The rest…”

Another test was given to the students who overlapped the geography of Utulum Mountain and the nature of winter rain.

***

Mount Utulum is not a place for people to live.

The decision to use such a place as a field for the end-of-semester evaluation was, in a way, hard to understand.

I was even relieved to realize that I had lowered the difficulty level for the evaluation, but if the proposition is betrayed, something ridiculous happens. To the point of being very frightened.

The reason why I was frightened that this area is a test site is because of the rugged terrain and rapidly changing weather.

“Ahhhhh”

Rhenias has just finished setting up the tent and is immersed in satisfaction.

But, unfortunately, we are not in a situation where we can be satisfied right now.

I had to go into the tent I had set up myself and pour out cruel words to the junior who was feeling contentedly laughing.

“Renias. It’s important, so why don’t you wake up?”

“Yeah…? It’s a bit difficult right now… Okay. Can’t we just rest a bit…?”

…I can’t. I can only speak directly.

“We must fold the tent immediately.”

Then, Rhenias jumped up and asked.

“Eh?! It’s all done now… No, more than that? Why? After all the effort, isn’t it just a test?”

It doesn’t matter if the altitude of the mountain is low, but that’s a high mountain with a few thousand meters.

Only the snow was removed in the high mountain, but there is something really scary about it.

“I’m not kidding. You’re going to experience living hell here. If you don’t want to give up on the exam, you should do it now.”

“Yes eh eh????”

This is not an ordinary acid.

This is a mountain with very unstable geology, where if it rains… You’ll be swept away by an avalanche.

Why did Princess Ophelia go on an expedition to Moras Great Marsh this winter to avoid the humid summer? It was to avoid natural disasters!

Look. Clouds gathering from afar. Unmistakable cumulonimbus.

If cumulonimbus clouds form in the mountains, it will surely pour down rain, and this rain will ride on the slope and create an enormous avalanche.

This is my experience.

I experienced that vividly, and there were times when I almost got swept away.

If you think that it is just a general level of soil and sand being swept away, you are mistaken.

There is no way to answer that because it is a real natural disaster that is openly as if the ground is moving.

It is not the time to set up a tent as leisurely as now, but right now you need to take easy measures to reduce the damage, or at least find a place where you won’t be washed away by the earth.

‘I thought it was easy…’

Why is this a lightning strike in a dry sky?

I haven’t received any notification that the test will be suspended, as if the fact that I didn’t finish this test quickly was a problem.

‘No, didn’t you do it in the first place?’

…Professor Meuniher deserves it.

Then there is only one stance I can take.

With the winter rain already falling, a harsh environment would be unfolded just by that, so how could I afford to take the test?

Renias and I had to quickly pack up and prepare a safe place in case of an emergency.

Since I can’t even escape during break time, I don’t want to retire because it’s a test or something buried in dirt!

***

“I didn’t expect a partner to appear there…”

I couldn’t help it. Because you can’t get into other people’s ears.

Sylvia was anxious.

There was no chance to meet him now, and there was not much time left.

In other words, the 4th stage exam time was the last chance to negotiate with Junon.

“Please… Show up soon…”

The moment I am kicked out of the county, I mean the end.

Cold cumulonimbus clouds were gathering at Sylvia who was thinking that way.
