I Became a Face Genius at the Academy
Chapter 21
Episode 21
“Ainim von Longert.”
In the afternoon, the practical test site outside the campus.
The use of offensive magic is allowed in the test. Even 4-star magic has a large range of action, so it’s not something that can be used in corrections.
The exam started, a few students demonstrated magic first, and now it’s Ainim’s turn.
“Ainim von Longert. Don’t you?”
“Where has the princess gone?”
“I haven’t seen you since the written exam.”
“me too.”
Even when the children looked around, they couldn’t see him.
“I’m here.”
A voice came from the other side.
It was a child walking from the schoolyard with a leisurely gait. There are four professors here, but they are the princesses of the empire to be reprimanded for being late.
“Did you come just in time?”
“… … Yes. Let the exam begin.”
“”Lama Tro Le Gran-“”
There is no tension or even the usual deep breathing. Even as they walked, they were chanting magic.
There was no surprise there.
Ai’s lively and lively voice continues.
long.
Incredibly long.
“And how many of them are chained?”
“An octet chain form?”
“Is there such a magic in 4 stars?”
“No… … .”
It wasn’t just the students.
Rather, the reaction of the professors was more intense. The same goes for professors who are quite old. Everyone raised their voices in surprise.
“no way.”
“That’s obvious… … !”
“Aren’t my ears wrong?”
There is nothing to see.
While the students were bewildered, Ai-nim’s spell chanting ended.
““―Adia (Falling)””
After hearing the last explanation, everyone’s heads turned toward the sky.
Red starlight embroidering the sky in broad daylight. The number reached thirty.
The 5-star magic of the fire attribute, 「Fire Rain」.
Two of the four professors in this room are five-star.
A 16-year-old student can perform magic on an equal footing with a professor at Somerset, who is worthy of being called an elite.
“Oh, what day is it today?”
“It’s June 1st.”
“Oh my God, isn’t that a week earlier than Meiji Kanin?”
“I’m not sure either. Didn’t it just reach 5 stars today?”
“No, talk about that later and help me. It’s hard to stop on my own.”
It doesn’t matter if the surroundings become dizzy by casting normal attack magic. That’s the reason why I deliberately set up a test site outside.
However, if you are bombarded with 5-star, fire-attribute magic, it doesn’t take much effort to clean up.
There are still many more contestants left. The professors gathered their magic.
Paang-
The flames that fell with fierce force were crushed by the magic power of the professors and scattered. It was a coercive blow.
“Rating of Magic, 4 out of 4.”
“Understanding of magic, 12 points out of 12.”
“The completeness of magic, 14 points out of 15.”
“The development of magic, 3 out of 9.”
“Fire Rain” is a magic that rains down over 100 fireworks.
However, at the time the name was given by the Magic Society, it was 6-star magic, not 5-star. Today, it is difficult to drop 100 sparks, and the magic efficiency is not good, so the grade was lowered during the re-examination.
Thirty or so were very good.
“A total of 33 points. thank you for your effort.”
Usually, after their turn is over, they stay and watch the others. Occasionally, if there are students who use the same magic, they can be compared.
However, since there was no other freshman who could use 5-star magic other than Ai-sama, Ai-sama hurried back to the campus.
I wish I didn’t push too hard.
“Wow, 33 points.”
“Isn’t that the peak?”
“Lord Baeller must have had 33 as a freshman.”
“The imperial family is different as expected.”
It is said that the perfect score is 40 points, but in reality, it is extremely rare to get 30 points.
This is because it is virtually impossible to get the 9 points assigned to the fourth evaluation item, ‘magical development’. This wasn’t just a freshman story.
Magic has been developing for hundreds of years.
Finding a point to improve there is only possible if the excellent magicians in the magical world study again and again.
Ainim and Baeller only got 3 points because of the magical talent unique to the Rongrute family. It’s not universal, so it can’t get a higher score.
“Shall we go soon?”
“Where are you going? There are still highlights.”
A few students followed, demonstrating magic. There was no particular change.
The best students stayed in the mid-to-low 20s, usually in the high 10s or barely reached the 20s.
“Lockstrin Aindarok.”
Soon after, the moment my name was called, there was silence.
The noise stopped as if it had never happened.
As if someone could clearly hear someone swallowing saliva, the vast vacant lot became quiet in an instant. I slowly got up.
“That’s great.”
“No student has demonstrated magic yet, Professor Katrina.”
“Ahaha. Yes, it is.”
For a moment, laughter blossomed among the students. In other words, the female professor relieved the children’s tension with an appropriate joke.
“Are you ready?”
“Yes.”
“Begin.”
ha.
I took a long deep breath.
Hundreds of pairs of gazes filled with enthusiasm and anticipation are pointed down.
what
It was an empty can from the beginning. From now on, it will gradually go downhill.
Still, it would be nice to leave room for something to appear. It has to be a downhill, not a cliff.
““Will Les Lippe””
pop.
The ceremony ends with that.
It took less than 3 seconds to recite. The surroundings became cold enough to be embarrassing.
wheein.
Even so, I poured a lot of mana into it, and the [Wind Curtain] spread out in front of me about 5 meters far exceeded my height.
Unfortunately, with only level 3 magic, my heart hurts when I make it this size. I didn’t even practice much. About 300 times.
“That is all.”
I’m so frustrated
Say something, the professors shut their mouths and don’t say anything… …
“her.”
No, it was the other way around.
When I turned around, I saw that he hadn’t said anything with his mouth wide open. Wasn’t that crazy?
I prepared hard on my own. 2 adults.
“Now, what… … ?”
Since it was a simple magic, I thought the score would come out immediately, but it wasn’t.
the old professor asked in a trembling voice.
“What magic did you just demonstrate?”
“It’s ‘Wind Curtain’.”
“I am deaf because of my age, but how did you chant the spell?”
“Wind attribute, double chain form of continuation and overlapping. This is “Will Les Lippe”. I just added the fighter as an infinite spear.”
“Why did you do that?”
At first I didn’t understand the intent of the question.
But before long, conclusions are drawn from their facial expressions and from their exasperated voices. The two professors stood up straight from their seats.
“The spell of [Wind Curtain] isn’t like that.”
“There was no solution. It’s a completely wrong formula. Such magic cannot be created.”
“I’m asking why it was completed.”
“In perfect shape.”
I wasn’t disappointed.
When the vague expectations returned with results far beyond their imaginations.
The professors were perplexed.
‘They’re cleverly hiding.’
What came to my mind at that time was the words that Ai-nim had left me just a few hours ago.
‘In the solution, in the form. Some magic fits the spell perfectly, but some magic doesn’t make sense from the start.’
Come to think of it, it was Ainim who invented this method. Seeing that they even stopped and showed it for no reason, it means that there was something meaningful about it.
What was Ai trying to say?
A conclusion came quickly.
“[Ber], which is the solution to ‘development’, is—”
Even if one method is superior in all respects, it still cannot be called the correct answer.
Instead, only one thing is certain.
“—because it was wrong.”
That all other methods are wrong.
After a brief silence, a young professor struggled to open his mouth.
“It is a dangerous idea.”
“At the same time, it’s a great idea.”
The magic itself is only a small part.
2-star magic alone was sufficient. It was visible in the eyes of the professors.
“Rating of Magic, 3 out of 4.”
“Wind Curtain” is a 2-star magic. I can only give 3 points. The young professor swallowed.
“Understanding of magic, 12 points out of 12.”
It’s a basic step.
It was cast stably, and since the number of consecutive and overlapping is uniform, the magical power is as solid as a wall and does not shake. I definitely understand. The middle-aged professor said calmly.
“The perfection of magic, 15 out of 15 points.”
The distance, size, and casting speed are all perfect.
Its flawless perfection is comparable to that of the student representative, Baeller Rongrd. It’s a tricky grading system, but the female professor declared 15 points.
“The level of magic development, out of 9… … .”
The old professor closed his eyes.
What does this mean?
The empire has constantly challenged the authority of Liden, who claims to be the suzerain of magic. So far, I haven’t been able to come up with any results.
But at this very moment.
A spark ignited on the fuse.
So, what will happen in the future, the old professor contemplates with his eyes closed. Shake your head.
dare,
cannot be tailored
“Nine points.”
Scoring is over.
The teaching assistant who received hundreds of sharp gazes hurriedly shouted.
“Second, 39 total points… … !”
Only 1 point is missing out of 40 points.
Only 1 point, that’s a rating. Even if it has been cut, who can say it is a blemish?
The highest point has been reached since the founding of Summer Turge. I’m glad I don’t have children here.
sorry, kid.
I’ll tell you later about your achievements.
“… … For now, let’s move on.”
“I will.”
There were not even a few left.
My turn, which was the highlight, came to an end, and many students left the exam hall feeling relieved because they got the highest score ever.
I stayed until the end.
“You worked hard, Hira.”
“Did you wait? I was almost the last… … .”
“Ugh. To be honest, I’m sorry. Why are you disappointed?”
“No way! Not really.”
Hira was unlucky and was far behind in her turn. Um, but to be honest, it wasn’t even a double job, so I wasn’t paying much attention to it.
Then he carefully sat down next to me. It was a delicate distance, about three spans apart. It’s obvious that he’s pissed off.
“There is someone I need to see.”
“Frid Rapid.”
Even a tiger would come if I said it, and just in time, Frid’s name was called.
Now there are very few students left.
Since he didn’t think there were any students left to look at, it was at most a few of Frid’s commoner friends.
“I am also curious. How great is the Rocks interested?”
“Well. I want to be great.”
chuck.
“… … .”
I gently stuck out my thumb at Frid who was passing in front of me. Frid accepted it with a light glance.
Cheer up, Sasha… … .
But where are you going?
“Frid Raspeed? It’s difficult to evaluate when you go that far.”
The comments fell immediately.
Freed stopped only after walking farther than the other students had taken their exams.
And he smiles and says
“That’s because I’m really anxious. It’s my first time trying it. Maybe not.”
“Hmm… … It won’t work positively anyway. Are you okay?”
“Yes.”
“Begin.”
Is this your first time?
He was the one who practiced “extrude” until his magic power ran out in the practice room. There would be no point in telling such a lie to the professors.
Professors do not take into account any other factors unrelated to magic, so they do not affect the score. Did I push it too hard?
““Terra Fin Arpon Dura””
Earth properties, the double chain form of thorns and bumps, and the solution of wave.
After all, it was the chant of “Protrusion”.
Accepting my advice, Frid’s unique swift mana proceeds in the form of a “wave” from the feet.
Even the professors briefly admired it.
The change happened right after that.
‘Come back?’
The mana that had stretched out for about 10 meters came back in an instant. Because the operation of mana was so fast, the uplift did not start.
Waves split from the feet.
Waves extending in six different directions finally begin to rise.
It all happened within 1 second.
bang! Bang bang bang!
Thorns shoot out from the ground once in the beginning, then in five directions.
Although the thickness is somewhat disappointing, the hundreds of sharp thorns are full of killing power.
“What… … .”
It was dangerous.
If it hadn’t fallen far, it was within enough range to get caught up in it. Could it have been blocked if it was the first wave?
None of the professors present here were confident.
“… … This is not “Dura”.”
Furthermore, it is a different kind of magic from “Extrude” in the first place. There’s no way this is only 2-star.
Wide-range destructive magic that devastates a 10m radius centered on the user. Such magic is rated at least 4 stars.
“That’s why I said it might not work. Fortunately, it went well. I saw Lord Rockstrin’s magic and gave it a try.”
Taking a deep breath, Frid turned his head and met my gaze. Seriously, I couldn’t help but laugh.
Anyway, except for me, they are all me.
Seeing my 「Wind Curtain」, Frid noticed it too. Half of it would have been close to a gamble.
“Nice.”
You don’t have to stick to a set solution.
So I played the magic solution that I had been practicing for a month until I was about to collapse from exhaustion. After shouting “Dura”, I thought to myself.
Anyway, only Frid himself could use that kind of thing, but the fact that he created a new magic didn’t change.
“How do you see it?”
“I will spare my words. Maybe I became a wizard to be here. I couldn’t be the main character. haha.”
“We are of the same opinion.”
“I want to run to Meiji quickly. It’s worth seeing the dean’s face.”
That’s how the midterm exam ended.

It’s also number 1 all time.
