Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

67 – Ruid’s Test (1)

Hwaruk-

Catherine used her magic to summon fire.

It was still all dark, but a little discernment was possible.

“What happened?”

“Go, what is this all of a sudden… scared.”

Hercy closed her eyes and let the wind flow. After scanning the internal structure, Hercy opened her eyes.

“It’s gone.”

“… !”

Hersy covered her mouth, who had unknowingly said something vulgar.

“Damn it?”

When Katherine asked, Hersy looked at Irina and said.

“The 1st to 3rd floors are full of monsters.”

Catherine narrowed her eyes.

Irina is a sophomore and a princess.

She’s right that of course she should be the first to report her situation to her, but she didn’t ask herself first.

She didn’t like it.

“People?”

“… I can’t see it.”

“That’s fortunate… It’s a big deal. Shall we jump out of the window?”

Hersy shook his head.

“The entire building is surrounded by a black screen. I don’t know what will happen if I touch it.”

“Ummm… What is this all of a sudden?”

“We also need to consider the possibility that this space itself has been transported to another dimension.”

“Is it just a way to get out?”

“Yes.”

As she calmly shared the situation, Hannah said with her terrified face.

“It’s not right for me to go out.”

“What?”

It was a very small voice, so Hersy asked.

“Hey, if you wait here, the professors will definitely come to rescue you… Besides, the room next door is the president.”

“… The president was away for an outing. Probably not today.”

Justin said with a serious face. Hannah sat down and covered her ears.

“You can’t go out. I have a bad feeling. Let’s stay here, okay?”

“But… “

“Yes Justin. It’s better to stay still in times like this. Did you forget the manual?”

In the academy’s manual, it was stated that in case of a dangerous situation, ‘wait for the professor to come’.

When I brought up the school rules, Justin shut his mouth. But he didn’t seem to like it.

“Did you hear that? It has been decided to wait here.”

“… Who decides?”

Hersy was bewildered.

Soon, he turned his back as if he didn’t even want to mix things up.

“We will move separately.”

“Now, hold on! Isn’t it natural to move together?”

A commoner blocked the door.

“No, that’s right. It would be dangerous to just leave. Let’s wait here together.”

Commoners also had eyes.

The second princess, Irina.

The 4th Prince Damon.

The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Minerva, Hercy.

From noble mtl dot com

In the world of wizards, where talent is number one, lineage proves skill.

It was truly an incredible force. Aren’t there three experts?

“…… I usually break the rules like that, but when it’s like this, I look for the rules again.”

Hersy said as if it were absurd.

It was then.

“You dare block my way. Reckless bastard!”

Peruk!

Damon blew away the commoner who got in his way!

Then, as if nothing had happened, she opened the door and went out.

“It’s a bit harsh.”

Irina smiled and walked away.

Hersi also looked at Damon in bewilderment, and she followed.

Right after they left.

The commoners were bewildered.

“Daddy, close the door quickly.”

Hanna quickly closed the door.

‘Is it really right to stay still?’

Justin wanted to follow in their footsteps. He felt stuffy, as if his chest was clogged.

**

Ddubuck— Ddubuck—

The three of us walked down the hallway in complete darkness.

“Hey… Hersy?”

“Yes.”

“Could you please turn on the light? I really can’t see anything.”

“… That’s because my nature is wind.”

Of course, if you want to use fire, you can use it, but if it’s not a specialized field, it consumes a lot of mana.

I didn’t know how long it would take to get out, but I couldn’t use my mana recklessly.

[Shall I write it??]

Miho, who had been silent, whispered from Hersy’s shoulder.

‘No. Then people will know about your ability.’

Familiars were nothing short of money for wizards.

He couldn’t recklessly show the power of Ruid’s familiar, not even his own.

“Hmm. What to do It will be difficult to find your way at this rate.”

“You seem to be worrying about trivial things.”

“… !”

Four fireballs rose in the air. The surroundings were illuminated with warm colors.

“Wow, is Damon okay with magic?”

“My sea-like magical power does not diminish even a bit like this.”

Damon said cynically, with his hands in his pockets.

“… Come to think of it, what is Damon’s attribute?”

“Greatness.”

‘Let’s not talk… ‘

Hercy stretched his shoulders.

“It smells unpleasant.”

It was around the corner.

Hersy raised his staff nervously.

He held the formula with the hand holding the staff, and his staff turned into a silver bow.

“Be careful. When I looked around, it was full of monsters from here.”

“I will be in the lead.”

Serung, Irina drew out her sword and stepped forward.

‘One Knight, one Litten, one Pure. It seems like a perfect combination, but… Will I be able to control it well?’

There are several types of mages, litten and pure.

If you fight with pure magic, you are pure.

Like Hercy, if you mix various abilities such as a bow, reconnaissance, or order, it is a litten.

“Kreureu-“

“What is that?”

The monster was in human form. He grotesquely broke his arm and came limping.

Hersy frowned. He is a monster of a kind I have never seen before.

“Uh… You look very weak.”

-Suddenly!

Irina gave her fake one shot with her right hand and hit it, neatly decapitating her.

“¡Acelerar ¡Aceleren!”

Several green arrows pierced Hercy’s bow.

About 10 monsters disappeared in an instant.

“Hmm. Is it full of these children?”

“Yes.”

“I expected it. The difficulty of the event is too low.”

Irina looked disappointed.

Damon crossed her arms and said.

“Don’t be arrogant and look at that.”

“Huh?”

“!”

The monster’s corpse moved.

Makes a very unpleasant sound, wriggling.

In particular, the monster that Irina cut off her head in the first place picked up her head and put it on tightly.

“Gweeek!”

“What, what kind of things are there?”

“Get out of the way, Hersie.”

Ugh-!

Damon took out the spear hanging behind him and took a javelin stance. The powerful magic power of the red airflow gathered and the atmosphere vibrated.

Wheeae liquid -!

The monsters were smashed with an unbelievable sound of throwing a large spear.

Quaang!

The building was destroyed in half as it crashed into the wall at the end of the fire. Damon looked at his hand with a look that he was very pleased with.

“It tastes good.”

“… Oh, was Damon a spearman?”

Damon reached out into the air. The window came flying at high speed. Damon easily snatched the spear.

“That’s why I distributed the treasure.”

Damon looked down at the ragged monster with an insignificant expression.

The monster emitted white smoke and turned into ashes.

‘Is the amount of magic different? The blood of the imperial family cannot be ignored.’

His own bow could only pierce. Damon, however, erased his very existence.

But that was Hercy’s misunderstanding.

“I have heard of it. A dark monster that does not die even if it dies. They say they are undead.”

“Undead?”

“It is a fake monster created with the magic of a black mage.”

Damon spoke from the conclusion.

“This monster cannot be killed without a specific weapon.”

“… Uh, is that possible? Life does not die.”

“Because they are not living things. Louis must have already known this would happen.”

Damon raised the corner of his mouth as if he was sorry.

“Otherwise, there is no way that each castle would have been scattered with valuable weapons. I thought it was strange, but I must have read dozens of it in advance.”

“Oh. So, is this all an event prepared by Amelia’s sister?”

Irina smiled brightly.

“Then more fun will happen!”

“There’s no way Ruid had anything to do with the Warlock… “

Hercy thought briefly.

Damon is a half-mad man, but his insights and abilities are genuine.

“What does Ruid want from us?”

“That’s obvious.”

Damon leaned against the wall with an arrogant expression on his face.

“I guess we should solve this case. Heh, he’s a funny guy. If it’s a test, the difficulty is too easy.”

“Then Ruid… ….”

“I’ve probably caught the dirty warlock responsible for this by now. However, it must have been that we didn’t intentionally cancel the sorcery to see our skills-“

Hersy gulped.

‘Ruid has plans.’

At first, I thought that Ruid just threw it because he didn’t want to teach.

But all of that was a calculated move.

Seeing Damon kick Justin in the ass and telling him to start a fight… He told me to stop the fight after seeing Irina.

‘I thought about safety by bringing the key personnel to the center of the incident and turning the rest outside. It was also a skill test.’

That’s the conclusion.

Hersy was hardened.

‘… Then I will.’

Hercy was instructed to take a walk. There was nothing else. It was different with Damon and Irina.

That’s…….

‘Me… Did you think it was unreliable?’

Hersy became sullen.

Damon smiled at Hercy.

“Now I realize. Foolish thing. But don’t be mistaken. Isn’t that all?”

“… Yes?”

“Kick the ass of the poor, does that really mean kick the ass?”

Hersy blinked.

“You came kicking your ass.”

Damon said pathetically. Do you not understand this grand meaning? I sincerely did not understand.

“I did it because I was bored. I thought from the start that it wouldn’t be all-“

Hercy opened his eyes wide.

“That, that means. Do you think there is a hidden meaning?”

Damon nodded his head.

“Of course.”

“… !”

‘Then… Does taking a walk with Miho mean something hidden?’

Hercy brightened again. It sounds like his own role has the potential to be something a little more epic.

“To put it simply, it goes like this.”

Damon took out his own wand and drew it on his wall. Golden magic drew his line.

Hersy looked at it with super concentration. There is a letter Damon wrote:

– I am great.

‘??’

Hercy looked at Damon with a bewildered expression.

“Did you understand?”

“… Yes.”

Curious about what to do next, Hercy had no choice but to answer.

Said a satisfied Damon, putting his wand back into his bosom.

“Final exams soon. But with that Ruid personality, would you make something like a test question?”

Hersy shook his head quickly.

“Absolutely not.”

“In other words, now we are taking a test. If you find the ‘true meaning’ of each order and complete it, you will pass.”

Hersy thought it made sense, but he had one problem.

“But… Then the fairness of the test. Difficulty levels are different. It will be difficult to score.”

“So, before taking this test, Ruid made a great thing called the reward/penalty point system.”

Currently, Damon’s penalty points are 39 points.

It was reduced to 29 points because Ruid gave me a shop, but 10 points were added because I broke a commoner’s staff a while ago.

“As you know, the reward/penalty point system was created out of concern that this body might be expelled.”

“Yes.”

Hersi, who answered habitually, narrowed his eyes.

“Yes??”

Did Ruid create a reward/penalty point system because of Damon?

I tried to argue, but I missed the timing.

“It is the same this time. This stage is just for me – an excuse to give me a shop.”

Damon shrugged his shoulders.

“He is a very shy guy. You just have to give it.”

‘I don’t think so at all??’

At first, it sounded plausible, but the more I listened to it, the more strange it felt. Hersy asked with a strange feeling.

“… So what does it mean to be kicked in the ass?”

“Did you not even notice that? The weapon I am holding is a legendary master spear manufactured 500 years ago in the ‘Ludemaliac Kingdom’. It was the most valuable item among them. Ruid must have known that I would choose this.”

Irina took out from her pocket an object she had chosen. It was a blue handkerchief with a cute ornament on it. I picked it because it was cute during the last cooking class.

This is written in the corner.

– Ruid’s.

‘… What does that mean?’

Irina was seriously worried. Damon continued.

“In the Kingdom of Ludemaliac, it is used to mean teasing someone for kicking someone’s ass, or ‘f*ck you.'”

Damon smiled.

“And that Justin is the chief of the commoners. In a word, he f*cks the commoners. This is the intention. Heh, by the way, the Kingdom of Ludemaliak disappeared 500 years ago, but I really made it impossible to solve it without me.”

Hersy opened his eyes like that.

From noble mtl dot com

“So, then, did Ruid not even predict this day, so he guessed what kind of items the students would choose, gave meaning to each one and handed them out?”

“Genius is difficult for the general to understand. Act by looking ahead to hundreds of futures. If you want to stand by Ruid’s side, pay close attention to his every word and every action.”

That was right.

Hersy bit his lip.

What is the hidden meaning of ‘walking with Miho? I can’t imagine it in my head.’

It was difficult to stand by a genius.

However, Hercy was not the type to give up just because it was difficult.

‘I’ll definitely- I’ll pass this test safely.’

Hercy’s passion flared up.

He first lifted the cane tucked behind his back. He had to know what this wand was.
