chapter 7
7 – Class Placement Test (2)
Here, stands an extremely ordinary black-haired man without any distinctive features.
This man’s name is Justin.
It was a personality just like the name that seemed to be righteous for some reason.
He doesn’t forgive injustice, and if he wants to be a villain, he will hit him in the head to the point of recklessness.
But that works. Because you’re the main character.
‘Should I just drop out?’
What I felt while living in the Middle Ages for a year was that people were more uncivilized than I thought.
A virtue that modern people must possess was called ‘aristocratic behavior’ here.
When I’m with someone who smells because I didn’t wash it, I automatically frown, and when I see things with an empty head, I don’t want to mix things up.
And usually, those things are greatly influenced by the environment, so if you are a commoner, you will inevitably show off.
To be honest, Ruid didn’t have the confidence not to be targeted by the main character.
Things that have already been twisted fall from the heart.
‘…… No. Then, if you get it wrong, you’ll be in trouble. It’s best to stay still here.’
There is an old saying that if you stay still, you will go in the middle. Ruid decided to trust his ancestors.
“Sophia, why are you… ?”
“Hersey is… “
The two looked at each other awkwardly for a while, then changed their tone when they saw a stranger standing behind them.
“Those people… ?”
Behind Sophia, two people stood nervously. Sophia smiled and introduced the two of them.
“I asked to have a party with you this time.”
“Ah, yes… That’s right.”
Hersy was a little puzzled. Her face is unfamiliar At least not from a prestigious family…
“Your name?”
“My name is Justin.”
‘Commoner?’
The fact that he did not reveal his last name meant that he was a commoner.
Hersy’s eyebrows furrowed. Not because I hated it, but because it was strange. There was no way Sophia would party with them.
This time I turned my attention to the woman. The fierce-looking red-haired woman turned her head in reply.
“… Catherine Ovillian.”
‘Oh, Obillion?’
This time, I was surprised in a different way. Obillion is a family of national founding merit. However, she was expelled from the main family a long time ago after being caught using dirty black magic. She was also ranked No. 0, A nobleman hated.
‘Commons, Mozala, even Billion*? Is he insane?’
*Vilain – Means mean, low, etc. It is also used when criticizing common people.
Sophia was a childhood friend. Her relationship with her has been quite long.
Hercy was worried about Sophia. If the daughter of the Marquis Spencer hangs out with kids like that, gossip would almost certainly spread.
“Sophia. What the hell are you…… “
So Hersie tried to tell Sophia to end her party immediately. But Louis stopped it.
“Even if you don’t know what it is, go on the way you are going. This is our seat.”
‘My life.’
The do-it-yourself plan was scrapped. Number 2 is because of ‘preventing Hercy’s misfortune’.
“What if you don’t like it?”
It was Catherine who answered. She didn’t like the overbearing Louise.
‘It’s annoying.’
Ruid came out with a sigh. But she had to do it and she had to flush it.
“I will be the one to be eliminated in the shortest time.”
“Hey, you must be confident? But there was no one with proper skills for a man who said that.”
Catherine pulled out her wand and aimed it at Louis.
It was stupidity coming from ignorance. It’s an action she would never do if she knew even a little bit of Louis, but the premise that she ‘knows’ is attached to the end.
People who are not ‘mainstream aristocrats’ usually don’t know about Ruid. Catherine, in particular, was a frog in the well, since she came from a distant country estate.
There was no way he knew the indolent genius Ruid.
“Ahahahaha, the greeting is late. Nice to meet you, Young master Louis. My name is Sophia Spencer.”
Sofia pretended to lift her skirt. She didn’t seem to know Louis, so she gave a hint.
But as for Catherine, the more powerful she is, the more she has the guts to say, ‘What should I do?’ Rather, her wand changed to a more aggressive position.
‘It worked better.’
Rather, Ruid waited for the magic to come out of the staff.
No, I think we can use this as an excuse to drop it.
After all, the initial elimination of the trio was a predetermined future. Louis crossed his arms.
“I definitely warned you. But since they don’t listen, I have no choice but to drop it. So resentful…… “
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to tear off the armbands of the three men.
“hahahaha, what a cute little boy!”
“… ?”
It was Justin. He was quite tall, but he bent down to be at eye level with Ruid.
“But ignoring people carelessly is not a good thing. Wouldn’t it be nice to apologize?”
‘Come to think of it, I was complacent. Can I just kill him???’
She was genuinely upset when Louis was treated like a child.
“Dare now.”
At that time, Hercy swung her staff.
“Heo Eok!”
A wave of magic pushed Justin away. He slumped awkwardly. Hercy’s staff was dyed golden.
“On the subject of commoners, did you cut off Young master?”
Hersy looked down at Justin with the eyes of a bug. He shouted, pointing his staff at him.
“I apologize for the rude behavior immediately!”
“Wind!”
Katherine narrowed her eyes and swung her wand.
“When is it spell magic?”
“… !”
However, it was neutralized by Hercy’s simple dispel magic.
“What time is it? Do you think Billion still uses that old-fashioned magic method?”
Spell magic refers to the method of using magic by shouting with your mouth.
It was a popular method 100 years ago, and it was recognized as unfashionable by wizards these days.
“What now…… !”
“Ha, it looks like you can’t even dig your ears properly. I said Billion, you damn b*tch. What are you going to do?”
Hercy was a noble among nobles.
‘X is cool.’
Ruid thought that must be the case.
Villain?
I can’t be this reassuring because I’m on the same side.
“I like the academy. A noble who dares to face a subject that would normally not even meet eyes. That’s also cutting off Young master’ words. If you met on the street, you would be sentenced to death for contempt of nobility. Know?”
“… The academy has no status.”
Justin, who was down, got up.
Her eyes were burning brightly.
“Certainly outside the academy, you might be right. But since you’ve come to the academy, you’d better throw away that disgusting aristocracy.”
“What, what? W, are you disgusting? Such a mongrel… !”
However, it is not too much. Thank you for being angry for yourself, but if it stays like this, it will go the same as the original.
Louise didn’t want Hercy’s life to go to hell even if she was grateful.
And above all.
“It’s annoying.”
Pachit—!
“…… !”
Three barriers were broken at the same time. And the armband shattered and flew into the air.
A pure white light flowed from Ruid’s right hand. He clenched his fists, and the light went out.
‘Well, it can’t be helped.’
A group of main characters looking at their armbands in disbelief.
Seeing Justin’s bewildered expression made me feel relieved. I was treated like a kid earlier, and the things I had been twisting were immediately undone.
‘I must have tried to avoid you because I was scared.’
I was trying to avoid conflict with the main character.
Because it bothers me.
It’s not because I’m scared.
I could do as much as I could.
[Those who have been eliminated must immediately move to the outskirts.]
Magical writing fluttered in the air.
Ruid poked at the blank Hercy’s side and said.
“I’m hungry, so let’s eat soon.”
**
“Oh, is that the famous Prince Louis?”
Academy waiting room.
Nemesis, who was observing the test in real time, said with interest.
“You really do have great skills.”
The professors were gathering and grading. It was also for the purpose of monitoring whether there were any cheating students, but the biggest thing was to figure out the level of the freshmen.
“I understand that the president gave him the right not to attend classes.”
They were watching Ruid’s magic. Some looked back and gave exclamations like “Wow” And “Hey”.
Magic Barrier. It is one routine that most wizards do as soon as they wake up in the morning.
Barrier is one of the few continuous magics that can be used like a passive without being hindered by ‘simultaneous use’.
The simplest, yet the most powerful. In the position of piercing, you have to put in several times more effort than your opponent.
However, Ruid destroyed the barrier with a single gesture. Even three people at the same time.
He even tore his armband without using any other magic after that.
In other words, the whole process of magic was just ‘one magic’. I couldn’t think of any way to destroy this magic.
“How did you do this?”
“The way I see it, it’s force magic. I think it was some form of invisible attack. It couldn’t stand it and broke.”
The barrier strength of those three must be different, but all of them broke only the barrier and stopped.”
“No. You even tore the armband. It looks like a type of wind in terms of shape, but it could be that only the position calculation was done precisely.”
I stopped watching the other students for a while and only watched the part where Ruid used magic.
I poured mana into the crystal ball to turn it around, and the heat that it exhaled made me sweat profusely.
“A genius is a genius… “
The head of the Imperial Academy, Clifford, tinkered with a beard that was neither long nor short. He was senile, but his eyes were ferocious.
“But.”
He was still called the great magician. And, in contrast to Louis, he was once called ‘Clifford, the genius of hard work’.
He is famous for offsetting his lack of magic skills with ‘application’ and ‘movement’.
“You are arrogant.”
“Keuheum, if you’re not arrogant with that level of skill… Wouldn’t that be weirder?”
He was quite close to Ruid.
Originally, I don’t like these ‘geniuses’, but the Phoenix incident happened a week ago.
Phoenix was Clifford’s familiar. Among the magic, there is a magic that shares the vision of the familiar.
Clifford looked. The image of Ruid flying leisurely through the sky and landing on the top of a skyscraper with a phoenix.
The way he gets what he wants by intimidating Phoenix.
When someone jumps up on his two feet, fall in love. Someone got it easily by borrowing the power of talent.
Kung.
Clifford slammed the table with a displeased face, drawing attention.
“What are you doing? Everyone, observe your area again.”
“Ha, but…… “
A weak-looking professor spoke cautiously.
“Can we see more of this? This is the magic I want to use for my research.”
When Clifford’s ghastly eyes met him, he timidly put down the orb.
‘If I had known he was like this, I would never allow him.’
Clifford sincerely regretted giving Ruid a favor a month ago.
I made this decision because I thought that self-development would be more helpful to Ruid than taking classes.
I could never have imagined that he would be such a bastard. Look at it now He wielded his power as if he did not listen to his argument.
Those with great power must fulfill their duties. But Louis didn’t feel any responsibility. Clifford found it too intrusive.
“As expected, I will have to withdraw.”
“Yes?”
“Sir Nemesis. Have you finished planning for the second day?”
The ‘A4’ area, which is currently the residence that Ruid has decided on, was in charge of Professor Nemesis.
“Considering the level of the two, I think an ogre would be appropriate.”
Class placement test. The event on the second day was designated as a monster attack.
Of course, considering safety, professors are assigned to each region. The level of the monster is also lowered by two levels for the student.
It was a simple test to see how to deal with the sudden appearance of monsters.
“Contact the Magic Tower and get a troll enchanted with all kinds of body enhancement magic. Do it with it.”
“Yes, yes?”
It was another professor who was taken aback by the president’s sudden rash.
“That, isn’t that a bit overkill? Even if you can’t do it, you need at least one Knight’s strength to subdue them.”
“In terms of magic level, it’s more than enough to subdue it. And Nemesis will protect you, so you’ll be fine.”
Clifford raised the corner of his mouth.
“However, it is questionable whether Young master, who has grown up as a noble, will cope well with it.”
‘If I can’t overwhelm you.’
I will use that as an excuse to withdraw my remarks and have them attend classes.
In particular, we plan to emphasize the ‘personality education’ part.
If you do not complete the course, it is a make-up class.
‘I should also add physical training.’
Clifford laughed lowly, imagining the fun of rolling that bastard.
