entrance ceremony

Early in the morning on a still cool spring day.

In the meantime, it was crowded with tens of thousands of people, as if it were a midsummer night’s dream, and after the entrance exam, there was only a quiet atmosphere.

Beneath the great banquet hall, where only the lanterns driven by magic flicker in a faint blue light.

As promised in advance, I met Princess Riena at dawn after the entrance exam schedule was over.

Because there were almost no people at the school in the early morning before school started, only the small breathing of Princess Riena and I quietly lingered in the vast hall.

“Your Highness the Princess.”

“yes?”

I don’t know if it’s because of the memories of the group battle, or if it’s just the two of them in a dark space illuminated only by the moonlight and the faint light of magic, but Princess Riena’s face was clearly nervous.

“You don’t have to be nervous. Martial arts can also be regarded as a kind of science. It is to study and study together.”

“I know that…”

“Then, please sit cross-legged for now.”

“Gabu? What do you mean?”

Apparently, she seemed like a novice when it came to martial arts.

In fact, even when he was encroached on by Yogi, it was close to an instinctive attack, but it did not feel like he had practiced an elaborate form.

“You can sit like this with me.”

As if teaching someone new to martial arts, he showed a demonstration first and corrected the posture of Princess Riena as she imitated her little by little.

The fact that she flinched every time I touched her, it seems that it is not easy for beginners to sit cross-legged.

Seeing that figure reminded me of the first time I learned martial arts from Master, and I felt a sense of affection inside.

There was a time when I was so immature.

I didn’t receive the gubaejirye, but if you look at it, it’s no different than I’m teaching her, so you can see her as a disciple.

Of course, when I was in the Protestant Church, I didn’t teach many techniques, but it was the first time in this world.

“Can I do this?”

“Yes, you are wonderful. Then, Her Highness, would it be all right if I put my hand on Your Highness’ Myeongmun Blood?”

“Prestigious… blood?”

“yes. It is an acupuncture point between the 2nd and 3rd lumbar vertebrae.”

“…”

Seeing him staring blankly at me with the feeling that he was talking nonsense, it must have been too difficult to explain.

Even if it was the imperial family, they probably wouldn’t have even taught the princess anatomical knowledge. If it was the location of the princess, there would be no reason to find out naturally.

“If you don’t understand it, just think of it as the back of the waist. Don’t think too hard, it’s usually the acupuncture point that the master uses to check the student’s true qi, inject it, or help with luck.”

“Back waist? Are you able to reach…?”

“yes. Because I have to figure out and guide Her Highness’s blood flow and unusual energy.”

“Aww…”

Pyeongmunhyeol is part of the central nervous system and kidneys.

Although no explanation was given, the princess hesitated for a while, as if she knew instinctively that the Myeongmun Blood was a fatal vital point.

“If I had tried to assassinate Her Highness, I wouldn’t have bothered aiming for a prestigious bloodline. There are many more fatal vital points in the human body, and at my level, there is no need to aim for vital points. Please rest assured.”

“yes yes? vital spot? Assassination?”

Princess Riena asked as her eyes widened.

Looking at it, something suddenly came to mind.

“Do you have any bad memories of assassinations? Then I must have been lacking in consideration.”

If it was the imperial family, it would be the source of secret strife in this world. It wouldn’t be strange if he had suffered numerous assassination threats.

“No! There’s no such thing, so just do as you please…”

“Excuse me for a moment. Don’t be surprised and stay calm. Any thoughts are fine, so just think of one thing. It may feel a little awkward.”

After sitting down behind Princess Riena, who had given up on everything, he blew her spirits into her noble blood.

The energy of the arrogant Heavenly Demon Spirit began to spread throughout the princess’s bloodstream, starting with her veins and poison veins.

Although it is said to be of mixed blood, the basic structure of the blood system was not very different from that of humans, as was felt when divination.

It was just that, perhaps because he was born with a constitution that did not accumulate takgi well, the blood vessels throughout his body were clearly pierced, and it was the same at the entrance to life and death.

In addition, not only Hadanjeon but also Hadanjeon were full of energy, and even though they did not practice using proper simbeop, the Middle and Hadanjeon were naturally open.

The upper level battle was mediocre, but it made no sense to the extent that I would not have believed it if I hadn’t seen it myself that the lower end battle as well as the middle battle would be trained on its own without training.

How could such an existence exist?

I wondered if there was a heavenly body in the legend.

He circulated the rare energy little by little to understand the inside of the princess in detail, but at some point, the yogi who was hiding sneaked his head in and tried to seduce her by touching the energy of the Heavenly Demon God.

It’s as if that’s the nature of the yogi itself.

If the Heavenly Demon Singong is a chauvinistic novelty that takes precedence over all energy, Princess Riena’s yogi is like a female spider that seduces and mates with her and then eats it.

Gently wagging the tail of the temptation, and sending a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of

Instantly, a huge yogi surged up to the point where the nearby blood stream rose red and yellow.

Princess Riena wouldn’t have intended this at all, so it could be seen as a truly instinctive move.

Finally, after taking a closer look at the Cheoktaekhyeol (尺泽穴) and the Gokjihyeol (曲池血) located on the arm, they completely removed the true spirit from Princess Riena’s body.

“This is enough.”

“…yes.”

Judging by the redness of his cheeks, it seemed that he had suffered quite a bit as the vital energy went back and forth inside his body.

“You worked hard. For now, that’s it for today. We will let you know when a suitable martial art is ready.”

Just as the bright yellow sun began to rise over the horizon.

The time was just right.

“That… thank you. Confucius.”

After Princess Riena bowed her head and bowed, she quickly left with a reddened face.

I’ve often had that question in the past.

According to Master’s own standards, if a person qualified, he would teach even if he was not a Protestant.

Regardless of whether it is a political party or a private faction.

Sometimes I couldn’t understand Master’s mercy even to those who might become enemies of Protestantism since childhood, but now I can understand Master’s feelings a little bit.

If you water and fertilize, you can see the possibility that beautiful flowers will bloom, so you must have wanted to believe in that possibility.

He was more positive than anyone else about human potential, believing that a bright lotus flower would bloom one day even in the muddy mud.

I felt strangely sentimental because I was watching the brightly rising sun.

Looking at the back of Princess Riena, who was getting farther away, I thought of a martial art that was just right for her, so I too moved to the Helios Hall.

A large square in the center of the academy.

At this place, named Bebel Square, the Schultz Academy entrance ceremony was currently being held.

The freshmen sat in front of the podium installed in the front, and a red carpet was laid in the middle leading to the podium.

The area around the plaza was so crowded that there was no room to set foot, with people, including seniors, flocking to see the freshmen.

“From now on, there will be the awarding of certificates and the oath of representation of freshmen. If your name is being called, please come up to the podium.”

After several formal ceremonies, the flowers of the entrance ceremony finally arrived.

The freshman representative oath and awarding ceremony began.

“Overall chief, Selina de Flanderen of the Faculty of Magic.”

“Deputy Head of General, Maximilian of the Faculty of Engineering.”

“Chief of practical skills, Karl von Bernstein of the Faculty of Engineering!”

“The freshman representative and head of theory, Her Highness the esteemed Princess Riena Graycia Franz.”

Every time a person was called by name, a buzzing sound was heard, and when the name of Karl von Bernstein of the Faculty of Engineering was mentioned as the head of practical skills, the surroundings became uncontrollably noisy as people said that they could not be trusted.

“The Bernstein family’s famous nerd is the head of practical training? Nonsense.”

“Isn’t there something wrong with the test?”

“Isn’t Her Highness the overall chief?”

“Who else is Selina from the Faculty of Magic?”

“Where did the name of the hero Stella go? The Bernstein family’s madman is on the list, but there’s no hero?”

As I walked up to the podium along the carpet in the center, I felt all kinds of suspicious eyes fixed on me.

In my case, the group battles and individual battles must have been overwhelming, but the final exam at Schultz Academy was a theory exam.

From my point of view, who had just arrived in this world, the only thing that felt like a theory test was that black was writing and white was paper.

Thanks to that, I completely missed the theory test, so I missed the position of the general chief or the second overall, but in the case of the Schultz Academy, it also pays attention to talented people who specialize in one, so as a result, the practical skills chief was occupied by me.

Anyway, the odd glances around me didn’t inspire me much.

A person who had been stimulating my senses since earlier was standing on the podium, staring down at me.

Schultz Academy Dean.

Archmage Amelia.

As soon as I entered the place where the entrance ceremony was being held, he sent a sneaky glance at me, and now he was staring at me openly.

It wasn’t just her that cared about me, and I also cared about her, so it wasn’t once or twice that we made eye contact.

I finally passed through the noisy road and climbed onto the podium, facing her right in front of me.

After making eye contact as if having a snowball fight.

“I don’t know what I am looking at.”

“I… Dean, during the entrance ceremony.”

Dean Amelia spoke in a bewildered tone, as if the thought had come out of her mouth without her knowledge.

Hearing that, the deputy dean next to him was frightened and stopped Amelia.

Even while Princess Riena, who was normally timid, was taking the oath with a sharp look, while awarding certificates one by one, and even when I went down the podium after the ceremony was over.

I could clearly sense that Dean Amelia’s nerves were constantly on my side.

That gaze continued until the entrance ceremony was over and he left the place.

Actually, I was surprised to see her as well.

Because it wasn’t martial arts, it looked like a long shot from a distance, but it was clear when I saw it up close.

Dean Amelia was also a being who took off her human skin.

I thought it would definitely be in this world, but I never thought I’d see it this soon.

In terms of martial arts, it is the extreme end or the hwagyeong.

It was Amelia, the dean of Shultz Academy, who reached that level with magic.

I’m glad

To broaden my horizons, to have someone with the same gaze as mine.

That fact made me very happy.

Even though it’s rare to even meet the dean and students.

One day we’ll have a chance to talk openly about each other’s realizations.

I can only wait for that time to come.

* * *

After the event, most people left the entrance ceremony hall.

“I’m dumbfounded.”

Dean Amelia, who remained until the end, stood blankly in her place and muttered to herself.

It was a thought that had already popped into my head several times, but I couldn’t bear it without letting it out.

“The same as before, why are you like this, dean? Not like the dean.”

Vice President Traum, who was assisting Dean Amelia, spoke with a puzzled expression.

Dean Amelia was famous for her neat handling, and it was the first time since Vice-Dean Traum had seen Dean Amelia that she had unknowingly made such a mistake during the entrance ceremony.

“Karl von Bernstein.”

“Are you talking about the Bernstein family crap?”

“What’s crazy, where the hell did such a monster come from?”

“Are you a monster? He is definitely the eldest son of the Bernstein family.”

“Haa… I guess the vice-president didn’t even see it.”

Dean Amelia let out a sigh as if the ground would go out.

If he hadn’t felt it even at the level of Vice-President Traum, it would mean that virtually no one in this school except Amelia would be able to grasp the true nature of the monster.

“What did you see…?”

“At that age, he’s on an equal footing with me.”

“yes?”

As if asking what the hell he was talking about, Vice President Traum stroked his chin.

It’s like I don’t understand what you’re saying.

“yes. You won’t understand. I’m going crazy too. At that age, this Amelia is unpredictable? does that make sense? that is?”

“Huh… aren’t you joking too much, dean?”

“I wish I was joking too… What a fool. It would be more believable that the legendary dragon polymorphed.”

“That… that. Didn’t a real dragon come?”

Vice-Chancellor Traum’s eyes widened in astonishment.

“no. He is a pure human being. That’s for sure.”

Sensing her head already pounding, Dean Amelia put her hand to her forehead.

“Is that possible? How?”

“If I knew that, would I be doing this? It’s a pain in the ass.”

“It’s at that level, but if you dare to come to the academy, wouldn’t it mean you want to learn something else? Are there any problems?”

“Did you forget that there is a subject that students must take until the 30th place in the entrance exam?”

“…Amelia’s Labyrinth.”

Vice-Chancellor Traum thought for a moment and then spat out as if in a sigh.

“I can’t. I want to meet you.”

“Are you okay?”

“What if it’s not okay? You can’t just tell them not to attend classes, so we should talk about it.”

“…All right.”
