86 CHAPTER IV -- THE FIRST PART OF THE MAGAZIC EXAMINATION (1/2)

After the swordsmanship exam, we had to settle our language and history exams.

Well, none of it was too much trouble for me or Frank.

But, well, as I expected, Hermann was sunk.

”Well, master, I'm going to say goodbye to ...... third grade. Please don't forget about me.

Herman was so lacking in spirit, I thought he had lost his soul.

And now it's like this all the time.

Didn't I tell you I'd have a year to figure it out?

Thank you ...... From now on, I'll try my hardest not to disappoint my master.

You know how to take care of yourself, right?

Hermann is really willing to die for it. .......

'I know . If I die, there's no point in trying. I'll do my best not to die.

Oh, oh, .......

What's that ...... uninspiring helmsman that's so uncomfortable?

Well, lighten up. The test is over in the next hour.

'Really?　What's the test for the next hour?

I feel a little better.

Well, it's magic. ......

I said and then regretted it .

''Well, well, the magic test is half practical and half written, so it's ...... oh, it's nothing.''

Seeing Hermann completely drained of energy, I stopped talking any longer.

Whaaaaat? Now, the magic test will begin. The first half of the test will be a written test in the classroom. Then, when the written test is over, we will move to the training grounds for a practical test.

Then the teacher handed out the questions and the writing time began .

The content was basic questions about what it takes to use magic, what the basic attributes were, and how to train magic power .

Well, I didn't take the class seriously, but I just wrote what was written in the books I read in the past, so it should be fine.

When the writing was done, we moved to the training grounds.

As we were moving, I saw the look on Frank's face, and he looked comfortable. Hermann's face was ...... yeah, let's go for it.

The training grounds is where we usually practice our practical magic skills.

Most of the time during class, Hermann and I are left alone by the teacher because we can't use magic anyway.

There wasn't much to do at first!

I could have joined the practice because I could use magic, but ...... I felt sorry for Hermann, so we stayed at the edge of the training grounds.

I had some free time, but around the time Hermann became fully proficient in non-attribute magic, the two of us had been practicing body techniques with non-attribute magic.

That's why I have a strong impression that the practical skills time is fun .

''Now we'll take turns doing the practical test. The content is simple, it's what we always do in practice. From now on, you can cast any spell you like on that target. We'll grade you on power, so fire your magic as best you can.

Apparently, the format of the test is an extension of what we always do in class.

Then fire your magic at the targets in the order in which they are called. First, Your Highness.

Now, Sherry or ...... are you okay?　If I did it with all my might, I'd probably break down the back wall as well: .......

'Yes. Okay, then.

When the teacher called her in, Shelly was not nervous, and with a blank expression, she pointed her hand at the target and shot an oversized lightning spell .

Hey, hey, hey, ...... the school is going to break down. .......

With that in mind, as I watched the magic go through the target ...... something unexpected happened.

No way?

The Wall has annihilated magic... or at least absorbed it.

Could it be a magic tool?

That's great. ...... That's a lot of money there.

That's just like an aristocratic school.

Just as I was thinking about that, Shelly looked at me and smiled.

He's grown up.　Does that mean?

I nodded anyway.

You're the man. Okay, Frank, let's move on.

I understand.

Frank, who seemed reluctant to do it after Shelley, made a lump of dirt in his hand and aimed it at the target.

It was pretty good, too, and it went right through the target.

”Feng.

'Well then, next time I'll go to ...... Mr. Leons, there's no point in doing ......, so I'll go to the next person. So then, ”Wait a minute,” hmm?

Why do you assume it's not worth it?

Shelley complained to the teacher.

'What?　What are you talking about?　Oh, you're just trying to escape reality. Well, let me tell you something. Your fiancee is a hack. A hack without attributes. So there's no point in doing it. Just so that's it.

Yeah...... I don't mind being mocked, but if you're going to say something like that to Shelly, you're going to have to get angry.

'Sir, I'm not saying that Leo is incompetent!　You, correct me now!

As I was about to speak, I heard Shelly yell at me to cover her .
