I Became a Face Genius at the Academy

Episode 19

D-1.

Midterm exams are approaching.

Even if you study every day, preparation and inspection are different. The preparations were over, and now it was the inspection stage.

“997 Mythical Revolution… … 1001 Founding of the Magic Society… … Founded in 1012… … 1120 Annexation, declaration of empire… … .”

There is only one continent that appears in ＜Academy Summer Turge＞. World history is also simple.

The history of Rongrte, described as the strongest country, is less than 200 years old, so there is little to memorize.

The complicated thing was on the wizard side.

“Why are you making me memorize this?”

Magic in its early stages of development is not very effective.

After improving and standardizing it and presenting it in the library of the Sorcery Society, it will be officially registered.

However, you have to memorize all the registered magic by year. It is said that it is extremely rare to get a perfect score in the written test because it is impossible to memorize everything at the level of cramming.

At this point, if there are any students on campus looking intently at something, they are all such wizards. If it is the power of discrimination, it is the power of discrimination.

Oh, once I memorized everything.

Why are you doing something like cramming? You have to do it consistently on a regular basis.

“aaa-”

Poududeuk!

At the age of sixteen, my neck and shoulders are sore. When I stretch, I hear a crunching sound.

However, since the written examination was over, it was time to check the practical skills.

「Wind Curtain」 is a magic that can be practiced in the room, but I had to solve even a small event, so I went to the Tower of Truth.

“Oh, hello! Rockstrin!”

“Hi, Camilla. The weather is nice.”

“That’s right!”

“Good luck on the test.”

“Oh, thank you! Wow!”

Now, sometimes new students passing by come to say hello.

This is a female student who listened to my nonsense in the previous ＜Creative Thinking＞ class and came up with the correct answer.

He studies well, and since he will enter class A after the midterm exams, it’s good to open up to him in advance. I just bit my tongue.

“Right now, the practice room is full. There were about 20 people on the waiting list… … .”

“Wait, what?”

“I’ll put it on the list.”

During the test period, of course, the practice room is crowded, and even the afternoon before the day, anyone would want to check their magic like me.

‘Maybe he’s there too.’

There were many students like me waiting for a seat in the practice room on a nearby bench, but there was an empty seat nearby.

“Whoa, whoa… … .”

“Does anyone have a video recorder?”

“Who is carrying that expensive thing?”

“Shut up and just keep it in your eyes!”

buzz buzz.

All of a sudden, the voices around us increased. Shouting screams leaked out from everywhere. These days, everyone is used to this face, so it’s a hard reaction to see?

I gently turned my head to the left.

“Should I have sat here?”

Baeller Rongrt.

Prior to Rockstrike, he was the representative of the 3rd year students of Summertage, who was at the peak of popularity as the most handsome boy in Summertown.

“There was only one seat here. I didn’t even know you were a senior.”

“I see.”

“Will it happen?”

“Then it would only look like I kicked them out. I don’t want to appear narrow-minded, so let’s talk for a minute.”

I heard it and it is true.

There was no reason to pretend to be with this competent guy. There is also a debt that brought me to the Tower of Truth when I was unconscious before.

Charisma Lv 6

kya

It’s charm, it’s fixed at level 9, so that’s how it is. All other abilities are very good overall.

It was a skill level close to the ideal I wanted. envy.

“How are you?”

“It’s all better now.”

“I didn’t mean the arm.”

said Baeller, tapping his temple with his index finger.

“It was too light to say I was tired. I felt like I was on a roaring ride. It still doesn’t look very good.”

“I just have to hold on.”

“… … Hey, Aindarlock. This is an academy. It’s not a training ground. Don’t you think that the expression ‘enduring’ is also out of line?”

Baeller smiled bitterly.

“I saw a lot of hard-working people. Everyone gets tired quickly and leaves.”

“Time is precious to me.”

“I hate to say this, but you are young. Is it necessary to be in such a hurry?”

“He speaks comfortably.”

Anyway, if you live a good life without worrying, you will become that kind of person.

what? perfectionist? mysophobia?

hey, baby

How easy would you like to live your life?

Would you say that even if you knew you would die in the 8th episode? I want to hit you with a bang

“It is a person who dies even if he trips on a rock and falls. You will die if you fall down the stairs, and you will die if you drink poisonous mushroom soup.”

Even if people forget, they die.

“Ha ha, yes. Anything more than this would be a presumptuous meddling. I hope you have someone to pick you up the next time you fall.”

“Baeller Rongrd, you may go in.”

Since he had come first and was waiting, it was also Baeller who was called first. But instead of getting up, Baeller shove my shoulder.

Even with such a trivial action, kyaaa, there was a loud noise around.

uhhh, this guy

It’s not like men are messing with each other.

“You go in.”

“I’m Rockstrin.”

“You say time is precious?”

Can you wait for your turn instead? If so, there was no reason to refuse.

In the game, he is a guy who is in unconditional confrontation with the main character, but this kind of treatment is quite refreshing.

“Then what? Thank you.”

“Oh, come to think of it, haven’t you seen Ai lately?”

“I’ll see you in class.”

As soon as the lecture was over, he quickly left the classroom.

“I can’t see the guy who came to me when I was bored and begged me to play chess. Anyway, good luck on your exam.”

When I asked what he was doing to pass the time, it seemed that his hobby was torturing his cousin. Anyway, thanks to that, it saved me even 10 minutes or so.

I was guided by a servant and found an empty seat. Since the space provided for each individual is large, it was still comfortable even when there were many people.

“It’s Rockstrin!”

“Now you don’t have anything to react to, right?”

“Nope. always new Exciting.”

“Please let me be in Class A… … .”

This time, unlike before, there was no barrier.

Anyway, the midterm practical test is held in an open place where all freshmen watch.

It didn’t matter if it was known now that I used the “Wind Curtain”, which was only 2 stars.

““Will Le Lipe (Wind/Continuous Stacking)””

Whiik!

A “Wind Curtain” about 1m in length spread quickly at an appropriate distance.

As I kept practicing, I realized that I didn’t have to recite “Ber”.

However, if you chant 「Tas (fighter)」 together, something mushy comes out, so independent execution is needed to distinguish them.

A chant and a chant without a chant cannot coexist in one technique. That’s why only ‘fighter’ is silent. It was the quickest and most comfortable way I could do it.

“What did you just do?”

“It’s ‘Wind Curtain’.”

“But it’s so fast!”

“Isn’t it like warming up?”

I expected to be disappointed with casting relatively low-level magic, but that wasn’t the case.

But unfortunately, it’s not a warm-up, it’s the main story. I opened the 「Wind Curtain」 about 15 more times before returning the seat.

The purpose of coming to the practice room is different.

“Frid, how long are you going to do it?”

“You’ve been there since morning.”

“Have you eaten lunch?”

As I slowly looked around the lab, I finally found it.

A large male student with reddish-brown hair drenched in sweat practicing the 2-star earth magic “Extrusion”.

[STATUS]

Frid Rapid (Year 1)

Attribute: Earth (2 stars)

Affiliation: Rongrult Empire

Position: Baronet

Personality: Dull, hardworking, long-lasting

Strength Lv 5 Spirit Lv 7

Agility Lv 4 Wisdom Lv 4

Will Lv 8 Dexterity Lv 3

Insight Lv 4 Charm Lv 4

Charisma Lv 2

3 personalities.

Out of all the characters I’ve met so far, the only student who has 3 personalities is Euryl.

In other words, this guy plays an important role in the episode on a par with Auril.

I don’t know if I can play that role normally or not.

Frid Rapid.

A classic repertoire that does not fall into this genre. I want to be the main character’s rival.

‘Although weaker.’

Should I say a bit of a twist?

In the first place, Frid is called a rival, so he is weaker than the main character from the beginning.

He is a commoner who has only received honorary titles from the same town as the protagonist, and is constantly ignored by nobles, but he does not neglect his efforts. Willpower is a whopping level 8.

At first, they feel sympathy for the main character and become friends, but naturally, the main character grows up quickly, whether it’s magic or whatever.

‘Why can’t I? Why only me!’

‘You, too, were the same guy.’

‘It’s different from someone like me.’

The sense of homogeneity becomes a sense of inferiority more than double that, constantly harassing and eating away at Frid.

In the end, he even made a plan to harm the main character, and the main character, who later found out about it, forgave Freed even in the midst of a crisis… … .

No, come to think of it, what do you know?

there is no main character

“Go eat first. I’ll follow you later.”

“You said that at lunch too.”

“done. I’d rather buy you some bread, so wait for me!”

“Suddenly why— uh!”

I inadvertently looked back and the boy who met my eyes freaked out and backed away.

“Low, Lord Rockstryn.”

“You’re working hard, everyone.”

“I just finished… … .”

“Has Frid been here since morning?”

“I didn’t listen at all. I would have used up all my magic.”

Frid was engrossed in chanting the spell, perhaps not noticing my arrival.

““Terra Fin Arpon Dura””

Koo Goo Goo!

Solving the ‘earth’ property, the double chain form of ‘thorn’ and ‘uplift’, and ‘wave’. Although the formula is simple, it is magic that consumes a lot of mana.

If you practice something like that all day, it won’t be strange if you collapse right away. The fact that it is still intact means that the amount of mana itself is not insufficient.

I sat cross-legged on a chair in the back. It was sometimes the seat of the professors.

“Four points.”

And score it honestly.

Since he had raised his voice quite loudly, Frid’s head swung back. It was then that we met eyes for the first time.

“4 out of 40.”

“… … I beg your pardon?”

“It is as I said. As for the “Extension” you just cast, you’ll get 4 points if it stays the same.”

Fred’s face hardened.

Rockstrin isn’t a character like this originally, but is there anything special? It is a body that is ready to play the villain at any time.

“Why?”

“Rating 3 points, understanding 0 points, completeness 0 points, development 1 point.”

“I cannot understand.”

“First of all, 2 stars, so 3 points.”

“And.”

Nothing much. It’s enough if you recite it according to the script. Originally, it was a part to develop while discussing with the main character, but there is no time for that.

““Exercise” uses the ground as a medium, so why is it that mana extends from the hand?”

“What’s wrong with that?”

“You walk on the ground with your palms. If it’s not a dog, the closest thing to the ground for a person would be their feet, right?”

“… … .”

“0 points for understanding.”

The theory does not appear.

It’s not that unknown. It’s something you naturally realize when you use it, but the problem with this guy is that he doesn’t have too many tips.

“A well-made “protrusion” should be sharp and thick, like cutting paper. At least a dozen of them will spring up. Look in front of you now.”

It’s blunt.

Only three sprouted thorns. To put it bluntly, the killing power was nonexistent.

“Aha, you made a chair. I can sit down. No matter how tired I am, can’t you see it? It is useless even if you practice a thousand times for weak magic. nothing gets better Perfection 0 points.”

“… … Why is the development level 1?”

“If that was 0 points, I thought you would punch me. why are you asking Did you think you had at least one point that made you better than others? It’s fun.”

He said with a thin laugh.

Actually, I’m a little nervous. What if you suddenly run away? He has high strength.

The reason you need to do this is simple. Because I, Lockstrin Aindarok, am an aristocrat that Frid hates.

Intense hostility is replaced by will, fueling the flames of Freed’s passion. He’s also a guy who doesn’t have the guts to touch the nobility.

Now, the biting bitch Frid will cast his magic once again—

“Ughhh.”

what.

Frid sat down.

Holding her face, she began to cry loud enough to make the room vibrate.

… … isn’t this

“Keuk, heuk… … .”

Well.

I guess I hit it hard.
