Episode 60
The place where Raymond left.
The graduates who had been staring at the scene blankly quickly came to their senses.
And I spoke to the graduate who was closest to Raymond.
“Hey, are you okay?”
“Why, there are so many ignorant people out there!”
He was still speechless as he came to his senses from the voices of his colleagues who were getting angry on his behalf.
I just stared blankly at the spot where Raymond was.
‘I didn’t see any attacks.’
He was in great shock.
I didn’t see the wooden sword being swung at all.
It was only when the administrative staff came and stopped right in front of me that I realized that the wooden sword had been swung.
A speed beyond his knowledge.
Since he was quite proud of his sword, the shock was indescribable.
He was famous among graduates for being good at wielding a sword.
If it is a quick sword that is invisible to his eyes, it will be almost invisible to the eyes of other graduates.
Unless the wizards apply all kinds of buffs.
‘Didn’t I touch this wrong?’
At first, they came to me because they were angry at the thought that they were simply being ignored.
But after witnessing that power indirectly, the emotions that had driven him disappeared.
And only one emotion remained, ‘worry’.
I wonder if I touched the wrong person.
***
I looked behind the administrative staff walking in front of me.
Only one day had passed since I met the principal.
But why did you call me?
To be honest, I could kind of guess why he called me.
‘It’s either an explanation for this incident...’
It’s probably trying to tell you how things will be handled in the future.
Honestly, this incident was sudden.
Because they were not told in advance, I had to deal with the cadets without any time to prepare.
At least you should have told me what you were going to do when you interviewed me yesterday.
That way, I will either give an opinion or find a solution that suits him.
How is this any different from giving me raw meat and telling me to prepare it myself?
No matter how much justification was needed, this was not it.
I’m very curious as to what they would have done if I hadn’t survived here,
because I almost died because of it.
‘So there are no permanent allies?’
I helped the vice principal deal with this, but I felt so betrayed by this incident that I doubted whether that gratitude had already disappeared.
It’s something different from fun.
Because it was a matter of human life and death.
I could understand the actions of the cadets who attacked me.
If it were me, I would have acted like them.
A guy who has just entered school shows such a monstrous performance on the test and even tries to skip a grade to his senior year.
Which cadet would look upon me favorably?
So there was no great resentment towards them.
But the graduates were different.
I really didn’t like their behavior of coming late and backstabbing.
‘I’ll have to get this separately.’
The principal’s help is for me, and I will receive proper compensation for this matter.
***
The principal greeted me with quite a few documents open.
The document was full of complicated information, so I couldn’t look at everything at a glance.
One thing I could see clearly.
– Regarding the matter of skipping a grade to the graduation class.
Just looking at it, it was a document about me.
A document containing how to handle the grade skipping I requested.
Although I was a little curious about the contents, I tried to ignore it and sat in front of him.
“You managed to survive.”
“Thanks to someone who cared.”
My words were not good.
I glared at him with cold eyes and crossed my legs and arms.
“Hehehe... didn’t it still help? “I heard that for prosecutors, training with many variables is something you can’t buy even if you have money.”
“It would be different if it were directly related to death...”
He noticed my cold gaze.
Why would such people want to get involved with me?
I shook my head, shook off the distracting thoughts, and returned the documents to the principal.
“So is that done now?”
“Well, you could say that.”
“okay.”
I closed my mouth for a moment.
The most important step has been skipped.
Although there were some parts that seemed a bit forced, it didn’t really matter as the work was handled quickly.
“But what is the test about?”
“Ah, the test...”
The principal looked troubled at the question.
He picked up the teacup and sipped the tea several times, thinking over and over again.
I couldn’t understand how he was worried about something like this when he succeeded in skipping a grade.
Isn’t it a problem that I just have to take the same exams that those who are currently entering their graduating class took?
“There’s just one problem with that.”
“What is it?”
“Originally, an academy cadet needs three things to become a senior.”
He raised his fist in front of me.
And it started blooming one by one, starting from the index finger.
“The first is loyalty to the royal family, and the second is sufficient skill. And the third...”
He pauses for a moment, then speaks.
“It’s proof of that skill.”
Why did you take this long just to say that?
and.
It just seemed like a waste of time with something so useless.
“But this is so ambiguous. “You have already proven your skills.”
“Then isn’t that a good thing?”
“So it’s more complicated. “The royal family wants you to take the test.”
Oh definitely.
I saw an item that said I had to take an exam in order to enter the graduating class.
“But you have already completed everything necessary for the test. So the question is what to do.”
Something half-hearted would have no meaning. The principal scratched his cheek in embarrassment.
I thought it was a good idea for a moment and bumped my fists and palms together.
“Okay, that will do.”
I said, looking at him as he nodded and decided which test to take.
“Please let me know this time.”
“I understand. “I wonder if I can even hide this.”
“....”
“It’s simple. All you have to do is defeat the graduates.”
“It’s simple.”
Simple.
If you’re a graduate, it’s like those guys you just met in class.
Those guys were confident that even if ten trucks were brought to them, they could take them down without getting hit even once.
“Once those exams are over, you will be able to graduate this semester.”
Plus, the time is just right.
It was a proposal that I really liked.
Now there is no reason to talk to him.
“So are we done?”
“That’s right.”
“Then I will go back.”
“huh?”
“Thanks to someone, my body is having a hard time.”
“ah. ha ha ha. I know.”
I lifted my butt off the sofa.
Then I slightly bowed my head to him and left the principal’s office.
“uh? “It came out!”
“hey! “You bastard!”
And I held my forehead as I saw the graduates waiting outside the principal’s office.
What kind of enemy do these guys have against me?
I didn’t want to deal with them now.
I was going to spar with them soon anyway, so there was no need to relax in advance.
“Are you ignoring us now?”
“under! “You’re so crazy! Do you think you’ll get away with that?”
“You will regret this.”
I returned to my lodgings, waving roughly at the people who were throwing all kinds of curses at me.
And as soon as I lay down on the bed, I couldn’t overcome Suma and fell into sleep.
