The Academy’s Savage Swordsman - The Academy’s Savage Swordsman chapter 36

36. We’ve got a problem, but it’s not our jurisdiction

All tests are over.

The cadets were busy talking about what kind of test they had taken and what kind of performance they had performed in it.

The facial expressions of the cadets in the Knights and Military Departments, who clearly earned high marks based on their performance, were varied, but the cadets in the Magic, Art, and Administration departments, whose scores were determined only by the subjective evaluation of the professors, were walking around with a biting expression on their faces. .

I could tell just by looking at his expression how difficult the exam questions were.

“—Today ends with this. Everyone did a good job on the test, take a good rest.”

“ooo—!!”

The cadets, who were waiting for the professor’s order in the classroom, burst into cheers when they heard the professor’s words.

As expected of an academy that nurtures the best talent, the conscience was alive, so no additional classes were held on the day the exam was over.

The cadets, who had worked hard for a day, headed to the dormitory to relieve accumulated fatigue, or left the academy and headed to the city to enjoy a break after a long time.

In the meantime, Kyle and Gawain visited the magic department with a rotten expression.

“No, what?”

“They said that cadet Kyle’s test results are not left… … .”

“Why?”

“We don’t know. I’m sure something went wrong, but I need to know why.”

The magician professor scratched his cheek as he said that. All of the knights’ tests are recorded with magic, but for some reason, Kyle’s tests are not recorded.

That meant there was no way to prove Kyle had successfully completed his mission.

When Gawain heard that, he protested vehemently.

“Professor, I have confirmed with my own eyes that Kyle successfully completed his mission. Doesn’t it matter then?”

“The test scores are completely left to the spirits so that professors or instructors do not interfere. And the spirits read the written magic and measure the score. No matter what Sir Gawain says, I don’t think the spirits will listen… … .”

“yes? If those fairies don’t want to die, they’ll listen.”

Sreung- Watching Gawain pull out his sword, the magician professor clung to him and begged him not to do that.

Looking at the two professors who started making a fuss next to him, Kyle, lost in thought for a moment, asked cautiously.

“Since when did the record stop?”

“Ah, let’s start with this part.”

Perhaps the magic professor realized that it would be faster to convince Gawain than to wrestle with Gawain, whom he could not bear to handle, and immediately showed Kyle the recorded video.

In the video, Kyle checked his equipment as soon as he fell into the virtual world. I checked the compass and map, and also checked the condition of the sword hanging from my waist.

The moment he drew his sword and swung it up and down lightly, the video broke.

“It’s not recorded from here.”

“… … Um, I see.”

After watching the video, Kyle could understand why his test was not recorded. Aura Blade. The blade of light that cuts through everything touched the center of magic and made it impossible for the test to be recorded.

Kyle glanced at Gawain. And like an Aura Master, Gawain seemed to have noticed what Kyle was doing.

Since Kyle was hiding his identity as an aura master by order of the principal and the duke, the two exchanged glances and shook their heads.

“—Hmmm, no matter what. Does it make sense that you can’t give grades because you don’t have records?”

“But realistically, only cadet Kyle can’t take the retest… … .”

“I will tell the principal directly about this. to set aside. Got it?”

“If only Professor Gawain would tell me… … .”

Leaving behind the magic professor who let out a sigh of relief as if the troublesome task was over, the two left the magic department building and looked at each other with a laugh.

“Did you write it?”

“Yes, just for the test.”

“Don’t take out the blade to come here recklessly.”

“Why?”

“I am not talking about hiding power. It means to be careful.”

Gawain’s eyes narrowed as if lost in old memories, and, as old people do, he began to talk about his childhood experiences.

“You understand, Kyle? This world is too fragile It is as fragile as a sandcastle that crumbles away if you touch it.”

It was the feeling of a hero who had lived the world as an Aura Master.

This world is fragile. It is so fragile that even touching it is careful.

“That’s what it means to not take it out carelessly. Every time I take it out, a lot of things that I couldn’t stand are crumbling down… … .”

“But, sir, you’re struggling because of the injuries you received during the war.”

“… … Hmmm.”

“They say the world is weak on that subject… … I don’t think I’m qualified to say that.”

“Yeah, this guy. noisy.”

Gawain spat bitterly at Kyle, who was teasing him, and headed straight to the principal’s office.

“You go back and rest.”

“Eh, is that okay?”

“I am the examiner, what are you going to do with me?”

“Well, that’s it too.”

“Don’t worry and go.”

The cadet went like a cadet and left behind Gawain, who waved in surprise, and Kyle moved straight to the dormitory. The group who had already finished the exam and were waiting for Kyle welcomed him.

“Kyle!”

“Oh, Arthur. Did you do well on the test?”

“so so. you?”

“after… listen and don’t be surprised. The chief is mine.”

“Ahahahaha, that’s right. Rather, I think it would be more surprising to see someone else rise to the top.”

Arthur said that and burst out laughing hahahaha. She seemed to have done well on the test, too. Seeing that you can laugh like that.

Hey, isn’t he the owner of a dragon’s heart that no one can match with the amount of aura? At the cadet level, not many could stop her.

Then—Kyle turned his gaze to Yuri and Sera. The two people who were the head and second in the academy, as well as the chief and second in the magic department, were curiously rotting their expressions.

“… … Why are you guys like that?”

“… … They say you didn’t do well on the test.”

“No, the chief said he couldn’t see anything… … .”

Curious, Kyle approached the two with a smile on his face. Since ancient times, laughter is contagious, and seeing a smiling face will make both of you feel better.

“—Yuri, Sera. what’s the matter? How many times have you missed the test?”

“… … It’s invalid.”

“invalidity? What are you talking about?”

“The magic didn’t work properly for some unknown reason, so it’s effectively invalid.”

“… … I hope you guys.”

Just in case, Kyle asked what the virtual world they were in charge of was. The content of the test was confidential, so the two magicians didn’t know the details of the knight test… … I could only know this one thing.

“It was a world big enough for a professor from the Department of Engineering to enter.”

“More than dozens of cadets from the Ordnance Department went in.”

A virtual world where dozens of professors from the engineering department and cadets from the munitions department entered at once. And if the magic didn’t work properly for some reason.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

No matter how much I thought about it, the only virtual world where both were applied at the same time was the test site Kyle himself entered.

“… … Oh, cheer up.”

Kyle looked up and comforted the two of them. Even if he was a real man, he couldn’t reveal this.

I just prayed in my heart that Gawain would agree with the principal and give good grades on the test, so that the nullification of the girls would not happen.

* * *

the week after the exam.

The cadets were dissatisfied with the delayed announcement of the results, but there was no case of openly rebelling against the fact. To say that I was curious about the results was a realm of curiosity, not to the point of daring to challenge the faculty with my name.

As test scores sink into the labyrinth, faculty members bring up a topic that will set the cadets on fire.

“After a while, a festival will be held within the academy.”

“A festival? what the hell… … .”

“It’s a cultural festival.”

Kyle listened to the words he had only heard in the cheesy anime of the archipelago and focused on Gawain’s words.

“Some of you may not have heard of it, so let me briefly explain… … It’s just a festival held between cadets.”

“A festival, why are you suddenly opening something like that?”

“It is a practical test in the art department. Because His Majesty the Emperor says popular art is true art.”

The emperor was extremely wary of the fact that only a handful of well-educated artists, old and stereotypical old college professors, claimed to be art.

It is true art when it is good even when an ignorant fool sees and hears it. That was the emperor’s view of art, and art professors who could not change the emperor’s ideology adapted to it in order to survive.

“The whole academy is involved and their artistry is evaluated.”

Thus, the practical examination of the academy’s art department became a cultural festival involving the entire academy, and at this time, other departments did not have much to do.

All I had to do was enjoy the festival and make an honest evaluation.

“Oh, and— to pick people to stand guard on the day of the festival. Is there anyone else to do it?”

“Is there an extra point?”

“Okay, you are the one who asked the question now.”

Fuhahahahaha—!

As the cadets burst into laughter, Kyle remembered something happening at this cultural festival.

I couldn’t remember it well, but I was certain that Dyros Academy was an action game where I fought and watched whenever there was an event. Perhaps something will happen again this time.

‘I don’t remember, but… … Well, it doesn’t matter.’

In the past, I would have had to struggle to figure out what the hell was going on, but I don’t have to anymore.

Because it has an external storage device.

* * *

“—No?”

“what?”

Sera, the external memory device, tilted her head and replied.

There is no such thing as a fighting event at the cultural festival.

I said no and looked at her.

“No, I remember clearly. Isn’t Dyros Academy a game where you can fight and watch anywhere?”

“… … no, you can’t Did you go around betting on foot-to-foot fights throughout the game?”

“Eh? I was beaten because I was beaten. Wasn’t it the enemy who was beaten?”

“no it’s not!? Dyros Academy is a god game! You can hit friendly NPCs too!? You bastard, you were playing a different game by yourself!”

After hearing Sera’s scream, I finally realized why the game’s difficulty was so strangely high.

‘I can’t stand it because I’m betting a fight on my feet… … .’

In the game, I was fighting the entire world, not my enemies.

That’s why Master and whatever died pik pik.

When I realized that fact belatedly, I laughed out loud.
