Academy Student With 999 Speed

8 – Jury’s reaction

Celtic Academy’s freshman class placement test.

This test, which takes place at the beginning of each year, has already become the site of a festival.

It is one of the few events that the general public can see with the naked eye, so its popularity is at its peak.

A few of the top guilds and families of each country, as well as celebrities from famous clubs running at the top, as well as some lucky winners.

And media companies from all over the world gather here for broadcasting.

This is because the viewership ratings skyrocket just by putting the stars and guardians to be born in the future on the broadcast screen.

“Yes! My name is Shin Ga-yeon, a reporter on the scene! Today, I am serving as a judge for this test, a professor in Class A of the Celtic Academy! Korea’s pride, Lim Yeon-woo Fortune Sorcerer. I will!”

“hahahaha, nice to meet you guys. I am Lim Yeon-woo, a Guardian directly under Seoul, and currently a professor in Class A of the Celtic Academy.”

“Yes! We don’t have much time, so let’s do it quickly. Can we know the contents of this test?”

“Well, the details will come out later as we continue the screening, but should the theme of this test be ‘force majeure’…?”

“Force majeure?”

“That’s right. Freshmen this time will have to deal with ‘unbeatable opponents at their current level’, which is difficult for even 3rd and 4th graders, in fact, those who have already met the Guardian level. I put an opponent who doesn’t have it, and I’m watching how to deal with it. Whatever it is, I’ll evaluate the process of dealing with it.”

“This is a very unusual test method that is different from what I have been up to now. Can you tell me why you chose that method?”

“Actually, the level of the students who entered this year is very good, so it’s quite difficult to compare simply by measuring their stats and seeing their level against monsters. hahahaha, I guess the question time is over.”

“Ah, thank you for the interview! I’ve been Shin Ga-yeon of Korean TV until now! See you later at the cadet interview!”

————————————————————————- —

“Wow…… Dog food… Lim Yeon-woo, do you usually talk like that outside?”

“Um… Heidel… I’ve thought about it before, but isn’t the evaluation of me too bad?”

“…..Woo… I feel bad… Is it because I really don’t know what you’re doing?”

“That’s enough for a nobleman, Heidel. You’ve trembled with all sorts of pretense? As if you were a pitiful little girl, you said, ‘Me…’ aaah, it hurts, stop it!!”

“Shut up!!!!!! Heyton, if you talk about it one more time, I’ll kill you. I’m not kidding.”

In an instant, the atmosphere changed from my story to the two of them fighting.

No matter how you think about it, the two of them have good chemistry. No matter how I look at it, I don’t get tired of it.

Not only the students, but even the faculty members are overflowing with interesting people.

Ah, I’m glad you came here as well. There will be plenty of fun things ahead.

“Whoa… Stop it now. The test will start soon.”

I was enjoying watching the fighting flow, but Wiz cut the flow from behind.

Anyway, Wiz doesn’t care? Well, I hope you enjoyed it this far.

From now on, it’s time to focus a little on your main job. I can’t help but look forward to what kind of students will entertain me.

“Did I mention that my mother doppelganger has already decided on a pattern?”

“Right, well. If you bring a real doppelgänger, you won’t be tested in the first place, right? He’s classified as a Class A dangerous monster.”

“I’m sure. Then why did you choose a doppelganger?”

“What… Isn’t it fun? It must be funny to see the kids panicking?”

“…….”

“Aha, the gaze is scary. It’s a joke. Even looking at it like this, you made it with great care? You made the body, Wiz.”

That Mummy Doppelganger is a special product. It’s not just a dummy for training, it’s an item that I’ve added a little bit of my ability to for testing.

For you to allow this, the scale of the Celtic Academy is different.

First of all, the original Doppelganger is a monster that is very good at surprise.

It hides the presence very well, but in this test, I lowered the level a little to make it possible to detect it to some extent.

Of course, I only made detection possible. Only for a very short period of time.

The rushing pattern that follows immediately after that. A merciless charge loaded with mana attacks the cadets.

“aaa!!!”

“Kyaaa!!!!”

From here on out, the dropouts start to appear one after another.

“Those guys are F without even looking at them. To think they collapsed without being able to even detect them. How weak they are.”

“It’s the same with that healer. It’s not always possible for a teammate to protect you. But you have to have the ability to avoid it to some extent.”

They are only given a cold evaluation and a label of F.

And the situation is not over just because it was detected.

There are a lot of cadets who can’t avoid the fast rushing attack and fall down.

Those who barely detect it are labeled E.

In the end, the surviving cadets are classified as follows.

Those who survived the rush or defended themselves in their own way.

“Kuh… What?”

First of all, the condition of the side that survived was not that good.

The amount of accumulated damage was not negligible.

I can’t continue the battle for a long time because of the stamina that went out in an instant. And more importantly

“It’s a debuff that lowers the stats of the attacked target… You’ve brought a pretty vicious one.”

“No matter how you think about it, the difficulty level is too high?”

“You wouldn’t be able to prepare such an excuse in real life. You have to be firm about this.”

“aaa!!!!”

“It’s a pity. But seeing as you endured, you can be assigned a D or, in some cases, a C.”

The situation is not good for the one who escaped.

“What…? It’s just a wild boar? Ha… No matter how early it is, isn’t it too underestimated?”

First of all, the marmal doppelganger takes the form of a mammal suitable for the region according to the environment in which it lives.

In short, it means an appearance that arouses the enemy’s vigilance.

Because they haven’t been hit, there are cases where cadets who don’t know how strong they actually are, approach them carelessly and get hit.

“What… So…”

“First of all, that guy is unconditionally E. I want to give him an F out of my mind, but shouldn’t we discriminate against him?”

“Hmph. How did a guy who doesn’t even know the basics come here? No matter how he does, he’s careless in front of the enemy.”

And those who have reached this point can be said to be qualified to enter the top class.

From now on, you must deal with that monster in your own way.

“This guy… Is not an ordinary wild boar! First off the street… What?!”

“What is that, it blows magic? It even attacks from a distance? What kind of wild boar is that!”

“No, you actually use it. It’s not even a wild boar in the first place.”

Yes. The Mummy Doppelganger was originally separated as a magic-type monster.

Even melee attacks disguised as rushes are actually all attacks with the body formed from the surrounding mana.

If it’s close, it’s a quick attack with a debuff that lowers its stats, but if it’s farther away, it emits strong firepower with magic from a distance.

How you try to overcome this dilemma becomes important.

At this point, 30 people who can enter Class A are decided.

“Woah, that’s tough. A melee fight with a shield all over the body? Is that a healer?”

“It’s unusual. The attack is so weak that I can’t overcome it.”

“Sister Armati Arya, surely that’s not enough to give you an A class,”

“Is it fun, Yoo Jung-min? Are you saying you have the confidence to win in a long-distance magic battle?”

“He’s definitely a son of the Yu family. He’s quite talented in terms of magic.”

“Kaylas. That guy is definitely a reliable tanker. Was he from a family of knights?”

“Did you say Arhan? It’s neat. There’s no hesitation with the sword. But the judgment part is a little disappointing. It feels like I was too honest to lead a head-to-head match.”

Various people endure in their own way.

And among them, there was one cadet who drew attention, and it was cadet number 456, Ga-Sok Kim.

“Did you only look that way from the beginning? Your response to the first charge is flexible.”

“Wow… It’s risky? Walking a tightrope at such a close distance. Isn’t it pretty tough?”

“If you see that it doesn’t fall back, it may be that you noticed that you were going to use magic attack in the first place, or you were very confident in close combat in the first place.”

“Either way, it’s great for sure. It’s a whole different way than before.”

“A counter that evades an attack by a span and accurately feeds it… Heh, isn’t that a fun fighting style?”

All five judges give favorable reviews.

Even his risky fighting style brings great fun to the viewer.

Every time he hits a counter, the audience cheers and praises him.

Soon, the mother doppelganger prepares for the final attack.

“Sorry… Is it already the end?”

“It was the most perfect of all the battles so far. It looks like that guy will be the chief this year.”

“Actually, it’s made so you don’t break it.”

Every other cadet collapsed here.

Wide attack range, speed that is hard to follow with the eye, and overwhelming firepower that burns the last life.

I brought the attack called the last desperate attack of the real Mermael Doppelganger.

I couldn’t block or evade any characteristic or magic.

This is a pattern that Lim Woo-yeon, who thought that the difficulty was lower than expected because it prevented irregular attacks, had high expectations.

However, none of the 455 cadets in front of him could survive the attack.

As the end approaches, the anticipation has long since disappeared.

It’s an attack that even halfway guardians can’t easily overcome. It must be difficult for a single cadet to endure.

In that way, it seemed that the Kim Ga-sok test had come to an end.

Tak!

“……?!!!! What??”

“Did you just see it? How did you dodge it? Teleportation is a talent?”

“…No, in the first place, that attack distorts the magic power around it and rushes forward. Even if it is an attribute series of teleportation, it is impossible to use it within that area.”

“Then…?”

Kim Ga-sok, who caught the back in the moment of pause, succeeds in finishing it.

It was a momentary situation that even the judges could not properly capture.

It was a neat counter that no one can doubt.

When the final pattern, which seemed impossible, was pierced, the audience as well as the judges stood up from their desks, unable to hide their surprise.

“hahahaha… hahahahaha….. Crazy guy…”

“What’s wrong?”

“I don’t know what he did… He wasn’t teleporting or anything like that. He just caught the back with overwhelming speed.”

“That… What?”

“You said you pierced through all the pressure around you with your bare body? In that state, it’s a counter that lightly transcends the speed of the doppelganger and catches up…”

A person whose information was not known at all.

Are you saying that an 18-year-old is capable of that? Haven’t you already gone beyond the level of a cadet?

From noble mtl dot com

If that is real skill, literally, a guardian of the greatest talent of all time will be born.

I can already see the guild and club officials moving quickly.

And now, the main character is about to come out into the main hall.

Everyone’s attention is focused on him.

He looks quite taken aback by the sudden interview with the audience.

I jumped out of the judges’ seat and shook hands with him.

Because of the sudden action, not only the reporter, but also the judges and administrators say something, but I know something.

“Congratulations. Freshmen. I swear by the name of Lim Yeon-woo. You are the head of the academy freshmen this year.”

No matter what I do, I can’t stop the corners of my mouth from going up.

I think it will be a fun academy life.
