265 Episode 265: Advancement Examination

"So this technology can be used to apply and amplify the technology earlier."

Today we were still studying magic after school...

I didn't expect you to have such an idea!

Hmm, it looks like your eyes are dropping.

When I noticed, the teachers were also going to attend after-school classes.

From the teacher's point of view, I think this is a common sense level formula.....

"Wonderful! I didn't expect so many talented wizards in the field!" Your master is a very good magician, no, a researcher! "

“Yeah, yeah, I was a little paranoid.”

In fact, the master of the world used to be a strange person.

When I thought that I was very enthusiastic about the low things, I made a big discovery that shakes the world, but I didn't care, and I was really a person who was only motivated by what I was interested in.

Hahaha, the best ones are the ones with the most weirdoes.

»» »» »» »» »»

Wait, why are you all looking at me and nodding?

Yeah, but maybe the teachers were paying attention not to the formula itself, but to the way my master analyzed the magical concept, that is, the place where my eyes were attached.

When I become a school teacher, my eyes are different.

But in this case, the A-Class promotion examination would be a breeze.

Is it a promotion test…?

What is it? Do you have a rank-up exam in school like an adventurer?

“Oh, my school has not only advanced exams, but also advanced exams.”

Well, there are two exams.

"If you pass this exam, students in the lower classes can be promoted to the higher classes. If you are promoted to a higher class, you can learn advanced magic knowledge, and after graduating from school, you can expect to receive high salaries from other departments and high-ranking aristocrats, so you are desperate to go up."

I see, this school is also mediating the place of employment.

In other words, it is only natural that a good student should have such a good place to work.

"However, the students in the losing upper class will be demoted to the lower class, so the students above are desperate not to be dragged down."

Wow, that's a silly system.

This school seemed to be a weaker school style than I expected.

"Do you think it's tough?"

"Yeah, well..."

"But this is a system decided by King Ken and the headmaster of the junior high school to maintain the quality of the students."

“Do you need King Ken?

When it comes to the founding king of this country, there is a legend that he made a name for himself by defeating the evil dragon.

That's why the image of a strong warrior = king of kingdoms is so strong in this country.

"Yes, the situation in the country was not better than it was then." I needed a lot of good surgeons to avoid being licked by other countries. "

If it had just been founded, there would have been a lot of confrontation with the surrounding countries. You know why I wanted that much power.

"So what kind of exam are you going to do?"

"Oh, the exam itself is a simple one. It only emits offensive magic and measures its power".

"Is that all?"

Because it was an unexpectedly simple test method, I was confused as to whether I could measure the power of magic by using it alone.

"That's all. Simply high-powered magic is an easy threat to understand." If you cast powerful magic into enemy territory, even if you don't hit it, you'll get a big hole in the surrounding land. Soldiers who had not been trained with strict discipline like the Knights rose up to the sight. If we don't have the leadership, that's all we need to get out of here. In other words, powerful attack magic is more required as a deterrent than actual results. "

Indeed, the flashy-looking magic is effective as a means of intimidation and demonstration regardless of its usability.

Also, if you hit it with high destructive power, it could change the situation.

Thinking of it that way, a simple power-seeking test might be a way of confirming the ineffective power of the ground.

However, even though this school is for students who are not good at attack magic to learn attack magic, how about measuring the power of attack magic?

... oh, I see. Some of the students at this school were children from famous families who specialize in attack magic.

Isn't it natural to ask for a place to appeal to your strengths in order for your parents to recognize you?

Besides, even children who don't like attack magic personally are more likely to grow up if they overcome mental problems in school.

“But that doesn't really make students very effective at building great ideas and tactics.”

Yes, that was a pity.

Even if they were born with low magic power and limited attack magic power, some of them were far better at developing magic technology and thinking about magic battles.

It's okay. Students who are inferior to the power of attack magic will be able to take exams in different seasons.

Ah, is that so?

"Ah, the students with such qualities will be active in the field of magic decipherment and magic tactics research of ancient magic of the army in the future." This is what former headmaster Kirks decided not to miss out on his preciously talented students. "

"Grandpa!?"

Mina shouted in surprise at the sudden appearance of her grandfather's name.

"I used to focus on the power of attack magic in school, but as an adventurer, I heard from the director of Kirks School, who has a lot of experience in combat," The power of attack magic is of no use indoors! Are you going to use big magic like blowing up a mountain to protect your lords and dignitaries from assassins!? If you do that, the building will collapse and we'll all be dead! By preaching, we adopted exams that allowed students who were excellent in magic technology and magic research to play an active role. "

»» »» »Oh» »»

Everyone was interested in Mina-san's grandfather's great work.

"In fact, because of that, a graduate who had been clawfooted by his family sent me a letter of gratitude saying that he had found a place to play and that his family's attitude had improved."

That's a good story.

It's good to be able to do it.

"Oh, we were also happy that a new place for students to play was created." just..... "

Just?

"It's also true that some teachers and students believed that the power of magic was the essence of the wizard. It was a reform that had a bad reputation. The former principal has many allies and enemies."

Yeah, it's like a vested interest or something like that.

You must have thought that if we had more new values, we would be less valuable to ourselves.

Or did you hate being overtaken by someone you were looking down on?

"That's why I'm looking forward to seeing your work!"

"What? So are we!?"

"Hey, Sensei! We're going to be temporarily enrolled, so we're not going to take the exam!?"

Mina-san's right, we don't want to stay in school too long!?

"Oh, I hear that. But in that case, I'd like you to add a drink to the sagging students these days."

"Are you drinking...?"

"Yeah, there are a lot of students who think that if they go to school, they won't have any trouble working after graduation."

"Huh? But didn't you just say you were desperate to get promoted?"

Yes, I did say that.

"Recently, there have been more students who aren't." I don't really want to take the promotion exam as much as I can do halfway. This must be a tragedy that has passed too long since the time of the Founding King. For students and their parents, the idea of school as an institution to sharpen their strengths has shifted to the idea of a place to benefit from employment. ”

Ahh, you can do a good job without struggling, so you won't grow an uplifting spirit.

Sometimes in the past, people say that. You'll probably regret it later, won't you?

"That's why I'm counting on you!"

When I finished saying what I wanted to say, the teachers went back to the staff room.

”Is it just a test to measure the power of attack magic... for now, should I leave it alone in the extreme annihilation magic?”

"" "" "" "" "Absolutely no!!!" "" "" ""

My mumbling was stopped by the screams of all the students in the classroom.

Jeez, I'm just kidding. I don't use any magic to destroy the nation, so it's true.
