Chapter 5: Entrance exam ruined

There was something I had to do before capturing the demon castle and beheading the demon king.

First of all, it is to block the first wave.

If you fail because you couldn’t block the wave, you’re in trouble.

“Waaa.”

The soldiers standing around the outskirts of the castle shoot arrows at the advancing army of demons.

The army of demons rushing from below was like a red wave.

Most demons are humanoids with red skin.

Rarely, there are demons with extremely large bodies that stand out.

In this case, it is an intermediate level demon.

From the advanced demons, there are some that have a human-like appearance, but the first wave did not include the advanced demons.

Looking under the walls, I contemplated the interior.

Magic power is circulated from the source formed in the sub-dimension along the magical circuit formed around Danjeon.

There was no sense of heterogeneity in the circulation between the sub-dimension and the inside of me, as if they existed in the same dimension.

The legs imbued with magic kick off the ground and leap.

It was as if the world was slowing down due to the extremely high magic power.

Of course, as an examinee applying for the Faculty of Engineering, I pull out the sword I brought with me.

The sword I was going to unleash was not a particularly well-named sword.

A swordsman that just draws from the top left to the bottom right.

If I had to name it,

[Diagonal Slash]

Following the cut grain, the lines quickly shoot out to the ground.

The line gradually increases in size as it gets closer to the ground.

Cuts down the earth.

No, the demons embroidering the land were cut in two at once.

With the overwhelming violence, the enemy was not even given time to spit out his final words.

Red paint was smeared where the line was drawn.

Looking down at the ground from the sky, I couldn’t help but think of such an expression.

“… !”

For an instant, it seemed that silence fell over the battlefield.

Are you overwhelmed by the terrible horrors?

Even if the enemy isn’t human, violence like this is rare.

From noble mtl dot com

“Waaa.”

No.

Now that it was wartime, the overwhelming slaughter deserved praise.

The morale of the soldiers boiled over,

“Master! The Master has arrived!”

“Waaa.”

The voice of a position official poured fuel on the boiling morale.

Observing the reactions that are too realistic to be considered just a virtual world, I got down on the wall again.

Chuck-.

Since the tide of war has turned, there seems to be no need to swing the sword twice.

It would be right to give the other cadets a chance to play an active part in the exam as well.

There was still quite a bit of time left before the first wave ended, so I was thinking of going around the castle walls to find Rossi.

Curiosity rather than any particular reason.

I didn’t think it would be bad to bring a witness on the way to conquer the castle.

“Hmm. Should I jump into the air again?”

I should have looked at it earlier when I leaped to swing the sword.

The sight of the demons being bloody was so impressive that I couldn’t look around the castle wall because I was just watching it in a daze.

But I decided to put up with it because I thought I would draw attention if I jumped up again.

What. If you can’t find it after walking for a while, you can go up again.

With that in mind, I decided on one side and walked slowly, but a girl with a familiar appearance came running at me from the other side.

“Eugene… !”

It was Rossi with nothing to look at.

* * *

Sometimes. There is such a person.

A person you don’t like for no apparent reason.

Or someone you like for no particular reason.

For Rossi, Eugene was that kind of person.

Precisely the latter.

As soon as she saw Eugene for the first time, she felt a crush on her.

Her aristocratic appearance was the first outward quality she had ever seen since coming here. She

She thought she wanted to get to know her, and she was talking to her before she knew it.

“Hello, I’m Rossi. Nice to meet you.”

As expected, the aristocrat was right.

Mr. Sullevan said nobles are authoritative and rigid, but Eugene was not particularly like that.

A very easy-going feeling at the first word.

‘Ah. We can get to know each other.’

That’s what I thought.

So she praised her appearance as ‘pretty’, but she didn’t like it very much.

It was a mistake.

Most of my peers really liked this word, but when I thought about it, there were no male friends among them.

But fortunately, the opportunity to make amends came quickly.

“Don’t meddle, Ruina. I’m not your fiancé any more.”

“I am. Still, I was once engaged, but it was a favor I gave because I felt incompetent and felt embarrassed to see her crying miserably.”

She looks like his ex-fiancee.

And the engagement seemed broken.

Leave that.

‘Incompetent… It’s harsh to say that in front of the person in question.’

She had good looks, but she didn’t seem to have the personality to match.

A typical arrogant and authoritative aristocrat whom Sir Seollevan, who educated me, spoke of.

That’s why, before Eugene stepped forward, she hit the ball.

“That’s true. Your words are harsh. I want to see you.”

After saying that, I felt a little uneasy inside.

I wondered if I was going to hell for insulting the nobility.

But in order to get something, adventure is always necessary.

As a result, I was able to become friends with Eugene through that opportunity.

What… It’s probably true that we called each other friends as long as we exchanged names.

Consciousness rose to the surface.

I forgot.

When I opened my eyes, I was in a completely different space.

“Waaa.”

The shouts of soldiers.

When I heard that, I immediately understood it.

‘It’s a battlefield. I see… Is it a hemp tribe?’

She wasn’t as lacking in understanding as Eugene thought.

I had a habit of lowering myself in front of people I wanted to be close to, so there was only a slight misunderstanding.

In the first place, if you were below average, you wouldn’t have passed the written test.

I was confident in battles against monsters and people.

I have always been like this since I was young, and when I compared myself with other cadets at the Legion Admissions Office, I thought that the students here were no different.

I’ve never been flattered by my talent, but I was genuinely happy that I would be able to become friends with someone through that talent.

She immediately decided to find Eugene.

She planned to help him as a member of her team and in turn get to know him better.

‘The walls are quite wide.’

Still, wouldn’t it be possible to meet if you go in one direction, either clockwise or counterclockwise?

Just.

Before that, it seemed like I had to kill the crowd of enemies.

It was time to move with that thought.

“… !”

She felt a wave of magical energy in the air that was so powerful that her eyes widened.

Chicken meat came up on her arm.

Looking into the air, a man moves as if flying in the air and swings his sword.

‘Eugene?’

It was a very simple move.

However, the result of that simple movement was not simple at all.

[G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G]

The earth split in half along the line he drew.

A huge number of enemies died in that one shot.

The number is well over a few hundred, and maybe a thousand more.

For a moment, I wondered if this was a dream, so I pinched my cheek.

“Ouch!”

It hurts.

It’s a virtual world, isn’t it a dream?

If it’s not a dream,

“That… Does that make sense?”

The war ended in one sword strike.

It’s not completely over, but it’s come down to how much damage you can win in a situation where you can’t guarantee victory or defeat.

What did they say about such a person…

Rather than that, did the professor participate in the exam disguised as a cadet?

‘A. That makes no more sense.’

If that’s the case, then there’s no way you’d do something like that.

Suddenly, I remembered what Mr. Seollevan said.

I heard that the world is wide and there are many geniuses with more talent than me.

“Eugene… He was that genius.”

And soon after, a question arose.

What the hell was the woman thinking when she called ‘incompetent’ to such a person who was also talented externally? Doesn’t it look like a lowly envy, so you don’t know his skills?

‘It must be like that.’

Based on that, I myself hadn’t guessed until Eugene revealed his skills.

Because Eugene was perfectly capturing his energy.

Rosie ran along the wall in the direction of Eugene.

Even so, I continued to think.

If he had just shown his skills, Eugene might have come close to being a master.

Or… either the master

Roshi, who was running, found Eugene walking carefree on the other side.

“Eugene… !”

He looked this way and made a subtle expression.

In Rossi’s opinion, that expression contained the emotion of ‘pleasure’.

I have already come here and done something meaningful.

Becoming friends with Eugene.

No, maybe it’s the most meaningful thing coming here.

* * *

“It’s over, round 1.”

“Yes.”

“I’m thinking of going to the Devil Castle over there.”

“Yes. Let’s go.”

“Huh?”

“Didn’t you just say let’s go together?”

At my words, Rossi asked me back with an expression of ignorance.

Yes, he was such a character.

A kid who will follow you when someone asks to go.

Have you not been taught that if a stranger wants to follow you, you have to reject it?

Of course, it wasn’t a man I didn’t know, and he wasn’t even a kid.

From noble mtl dot com

“You… “

I was going to say something, but I gave up because it seemed like a mess.

Yeah, maybe it’s because he followed suit and he has nothing to lose.

But they know what I’m trying to do and follow me.

“Do you know what I am trying to do and follow you?”

“Aren’t you going to pick the head of the demon king?”

Oh, you’re smarter than I thought.

“How did you know?”

“hehehehe… “

He smiles and blurs his tail. Most of the kids who act like this are foxes.

Of course, he’s a bit sleazy for a fox.

“Then let’s go.”

There will be some time before the 2nd wave starts.

The rest of the cadets will do well on their exams.

That was a problem I didn’t have to worry about.

The Rossi image I think.
