2nd Round Villain

118 – I’m going to meet you now.

puck-!

“Rose Ezeline. Class B.”

Beatrice’s test was ruthless.

Quick-!

“Yondi Viance. Class C.”

Also, it was strict.

Poo-!

“Chilea Grace. Class A.”

It was pretty tight.

To the extent that the kids who have just entered the ‘society’ of the academy are shocked.

“Huh… I’ve never been beaten by my father… .”

“The guy who just cried, is being demoted to Class C.”

“Why, why! why!”

“Because a kid with a mental head has to go through mental training in class C first.”

From a young age, commoners’ children go to a place called ‘school’, but noble children spend expensive money and receive home schooling in their families.

This is because private education for individuals is of a higher level than public education for children nationwide, and above all, it is necessary to teach the family’s vision. Alchemy for families raised by alchemy, swordsmanship for renowned swordsmen, and magic for magicians.

Usually, if you look back in history, the nobility is likely to be a great person who made a big contribution to the empire or a great person among the ancestors.

Its pedigree and family vision cannot be ignored.

what… Albrecht, who later became emperor, strengthened national power by confiscating and partially disclosing the visions of the aristocrats at the national level.

Anyway, the point is that Beatrice’s merciless, non-discriminatory hawk is no better than rat poison to children who have been pampered and raised in the family all their lives.

“It’s too much!”

“The wild doesn’t accept your foolishness.”

“But my father is a count! As the daughter of a count, the reason I go to class C is… !”

“My father is dead. I just sent you personally with the hand that struck you.”

Wow, I’m not lying, but when you say it like that, you really sound like an immoral person.

Beatrice’s shock therapy might have gone a little too hard, the daughter of a countess who was dumbfounded and couldn’t speak. Beatrice moved her aside and looked in our direction.

“Now, next turn is Maria.”

“… ! Whoop whoop, whoop whoop… .”

When Beatrice pointed at her, Maria inhaled and then exhaled. Maria trembled as if she was nervous ahead of the exam.

“Maria, are you nervous?”

“A little, yes.”

“Is the saintess of the world nervous with just a test?”

“I guess my discipline is lacking.”

Still, the way she speaks is the same as that of the old virgin Maria.

“Go with an open mind. Even though the iron-blooded teacher looks scary on the outside, he’s actually a warm-hearted person.”

“Do you know him?”

“well? what about Still, I can tell you one thing. With Maria’s ability, it’s enough to get into Class A.”

He gave words of encouragement and patted Maria on the butt. Maria touched her buttocks as if she was surprised for a moment, but soon after hearing Beatrice’s urging to call her, she hurriedly headed for the arena.

“Maria, just because you are a saint of the church, there are no special benefits such as giving extra points or making it easy for you. I will only evaluate you based on your skills, so give everything you can.”

“Yes, I will keep that in mind.”

“Then come in.”

The practical evaluation of Maria’s placement has begun.

Until now, Beatrice had evaluated the students’ ability to respond by accepting their attacks with all their strength first and then gradually increasing their level of movement. However, Maria’s sparring style was quite different from other students.

Woo woo-.

“… What are you doing now?”

Maria creates a sacred shield in the air and wraps herself around herself.

“It is sparring.”

“Is that your sparring?”

“A servant of the Lord must not harm anyone, unless he is endowed with the fate of the sword.”

“You won’t be able to win any future fights that way.”

Beatrice said as if it was absurd.

Maria pondered for a moment before answering clearly.

“I may not be able to defeat my enemies, but I will be able to protect my precious ones.”

“… .”

Hearing that answer, I smiled. It is because Maria of the future knows that she will become the ‘strongest shield’ as she believed, holding millions of demon kings alone in a canyon for 20 days.

“good night. Instead, it is evaluated by completely excluding offensive capabilities, so a more strict evaluation than others will be included.”

“I am prepared.”

“It’s good that I don’t have to talk like everyone else.”

sereung-.

Beatrice, who had pulled out her great sword, took the jockeying ceremony and unleashed an appropriate sword technique. Heading towards the barrier that Maria had spread out.

Pajik-!

“Oops!”

Beatrice poured in attacks with the most neat swordsmanship. In the meantime, slowly increasing the intensity was also flawless.

The children of the swordsmen who were watching were stunned and their mouths wide open. As far as I know, I can see it, and the more skilled the swordsmen were, the more shocked they were by Beatrice’s movements.

“I think it’s faster than my father who is a swordsman… !”

“How do you handle that heavy, long greatsword as lightly as a whip? How much did you build up… !”

Cacan-!

But, what’s even more surprising than that.

“Wow… !”

“To embody divine power this deeply, even I couldn’t do that at that age… .”

It was Maria’s shield that stood firm against Beatrice’s ruthless swordsman’s attacks. Of course, if Beatrice made up her mind and put her energy into it, she would still fall out badly.

Come to think of it, Beatrice was also from the Holy Order. He was even the best paladin in the Order. How is she looking at Maria now?

“Don’t increase the intensity.”

Quaang-!

“Ugh!”

The hero becomes weaker as he goes through generations. The saintess also became weaker as the years passed. Even the saintess almost lost its pulse after the appearance of the saintess Irowell.

In the meantime, Saint Mary appeared. The greatest talent of all time, the greatest saint of all time.

Before I knew it, Beatrice’s sword emitted an aura to its heart’s content. A straight line of gold was engraved on Maria’s shield, which was shining bright as if it was burning.

Kwajik-!

At the force of being crushed by the weight of the great mountain, Maria knelt down on one knee. A moan leaked from her clenched lips.

However, no one said anything to Maria. It was because no one had been able to pull that much energy out of Beatrice.

What would have happened if Maria like that had used her divine power not only for defense but also for attack? Suddenly looking forward to it

“Good work. Maria. Class A.”

“Oh!”

Wow Chang-!

A blow sharp as a spear shattered Maria’s shield. Maria collapsed helplessly as if exhausted.

“great job.”

“hahahaha… .”

He ran quickly and supported Maria, who was wet with sweat. She was struggling to breathe.

“I-Are you okay… ?”

“Didn’t you hear the evaluation last time?”

“Because of the absurdity, I couldn’t hear anything… .”

“It’s class A.”

When I said a short word as if to reassure her, Maria let out a sigh of relief. Then he held his wet eyelids.

“Next, Evans Grant. Come forward.”

“Yes. Hey, the girl over there.”

“what? Did you call me just now?”

I gave Maria to the alchemist student assigned to class A earlier.

“What are you doing with soft thighs? Please give me a lap pillow, saintess.”

“rude… ! Do you know who I am? How dare you give orders to someone!”

“Ah, if you don’t do it, rumors will spread that you treated the saintess harshly. Would you like a taste of the cult?”

“… !”

He was assigned to Class A, so he must be a skilled alchemist. If you have skills at a young age, arrogance will inevitably follow.

However, even if arrogance pierces the sky, the threat of holding the saintess hostage is terrifying. Even more so if you are a young kid.

Maria lay on the alchemist girl’s thigh so that she wouldn’t fall asleep on the hard stone floor like she did in Tartarus, and trudged forward.

Standing facing Beatrice with my back to the students, I gasped silently.

“(Inconspicuous A.)”

“… come in first Aren’t you just going to defend yourself like Maria?”

“No way, I’m not a member of the Order.”

I took out my magic wand. Right now, it has been converted to look like a triple pole to others.

It should not be ignored as a single stick. The sword splits the opponent’s head in half, but the triple stick shatters the opponent’s head.

“Is that the guy who was stuck next to the saintess from a while ago…? .”

“Evans? A name you’ve never heard of? Aren’t you a guy with nothing to do? Why did the saintess hang out with a guy like that?”

Doubts and doubts follow me. You don’t have to work hard to get rid of them, but you have to stand out anyway to get into Class A. Don’t stick out too much and become a hot topic.

Moderately, generously.

*****

When I left the gym, the sky was getting dark. It is evening.

Eden Academy has a dormitory in the academy, and three meals a day are provided free of charge to new students. Of course, other snacks, etc., are provided generously as long as they do not harm health.

Covered in artificial sweat, I walked to the showroom shower. Looking at me like that, the male students murmur.

“I-that guy… ! Isn’t that the guy who fought Sangvis with the triple baton earlier!”

“Your movements were amazing… I feel good too… Hmmm… .”

“I heard that 8-pack abs are innate… I envy you.”

“Eight packs? Isn’t that a 6 pack? It looks like a six pack?”

“What are you talking about? Take a good look. It’s an eight-pack.”

“is it? Looking closely, it seems that… But why do your abs seem to be moving?”

After the sparring, the students separated into men and women and washed their bodies in their respective shower rooms. You can’t enter the dormitory with a sweaty body.

In principle, dormitories are for two people per room. Of course, the two must be of the same s*x. You can’t turn the sacred academy dormitory into an orgy party.

However, I had made a request to Beatrice before entering the academy. Ask for a room with the beastman Aru. The reason will be discussed later… .

shoot-.

Hot water pours from the hot shower head. I gazed at the mirror happily enjoying the water. The mirror was full of water droplets and could not reflect my image.

it’s a shame. It’s been a while since I tried to see my cute face.

“and… big… .”

“uh? is that big? Do you think I can be like that?”

“What are you talking about, open your eyes wide and take a good look. There is a dragon hanging under your waist.”

“Um… Seeing it again, it seems… It’s really big because I’m conscious of it… .”

Whoops, jerks. Why are you talking about men in the shower? Embarrassed Siri.

In my mind, I want to show off my dignity and enjoy the reactions of the green boys, but I have already washed my body. It is foolish to waste precious time just to enjoy some reaction.

I wiped myself clean with a towel. The air outside after showering was cold and refreshing.

After putting on the school uniform I prepared, I met Aru who was waiting for me. Aru’s white school uniform was full of red blood.

“Change into something else and come. How loud have you been?”

“bruise! I just did what Evans told me to do!”

“Are you sure you heard it in the 4th lecture?”

“Woof woof! I got second place! I heard from you!”

“Second place? you? Then who is number one?”

“Blonde human! Frey! I placed second and withdrew!”

“okay? hmm… good job. For now, it’s a fixed fact that the demon lord has returned… There is no need to make the past history and changes in meaningless parts.”

“Woong-wong-wong!”

As I stroked Aru’s hair, he smiled brightly. I used Arachne’s web to get Aru a new school uniform.

Then we headed to the restaurant. To the dining room of the famous Eden Academy. It was time to fill the hungry stomach.

As if there were many people who thought similarly to me, there were already many students in the cafeteria. There were a total of nine tables stretched in a row. Among them, I sat side by side with Aru at the A-class table of the first year students.

“omg! It’s the dog’s hand… !”

“You watch your mouth… ! Didn’t you hear that if you make a mistake, the tendon in your arm will be cut off without even a mouse or bird knowing!?”

“It was the first time I knew that the dog Soo-in was such a scary breed… What kind of wolf beast did you think you were seeing?”

What the hell kind of accident did Aru have to say that such words come and go? I had a great sparring with Beatrice in my own way, but since I’m with Aru, not a single word about me comes out.

After waiting for about 5 minutes, the food flew in and landed on the table. Roasted and smoked duck meat, mouth-watering sandwiches, rye bread, pudding, pumpkin soup, and more… It was food worthy of the name.

As the other students admired the feat, I turned my gaze to the source of the magical power that moved the plates. There, a green-haired handsome boy was sitting with his wizard’s robe tightly wrapped around him.

This is the dean of Eden Academy, Merlin. Wait a minute, that Merlin distributed food… .

“to… Now that all the new students have gathered, let’s start today’s dinner… But before we start eating… .”

that Maria had arrived. I looked around and found Maria eating while sitting opposite the warrior Frey. When she saw me, she waved her hand happily. I followed suit and waved my hand.

Meal times were ample, and food was plentiful. Aru reached out in all directions and enjoyed the continent’s first gourmet meal.

The new students, who are still in an awkward relationship, gradually get to know each other by asking about each other’s hobbies or finding common topics for conversation. In the midst of that fresh peacefulness, the desire to let go of the alienation welled up. However, since I was a student dreaming of being rehabilitated, I quietly focused on eating.

After dinner, the day’s work is over. The rest of the time, students spend their leisure time taking a walk in the park, taking supplementary studies in the study room, or practicing martial arts in the gym.

I took a walk in the park with Aru. Wherever he went, eyes of fear and surprise followed Aru, and there was no place to be at ease.

At 8:00, the lights in the academy are turned off. Students go into their dorm rooms, act in them, and prepare for bedtime. In fact, it is intended to prevent students from going out at night rather than to go to bed.

Of course, a small amount of movement within the dormitory is fine, but no more than that. In particular, the act of leaving the dormitory is strictly prohibited.

chin-.

however.

“Kong? What are you doing?”

I am the good-natured delinquent youth of this schoolboy academy.

“Why do you open the window?”

“Shh, if anyone comes in, say I went to the vending machine downstairs.”

“What is it?”

When I opened the white window frame, the vast black and white night sky and the sparkling lights of the academy park unfolded. It’s so cool and free. After all, the pleasure of secretly breaking the established rules is incomparable to anything. Whether it be school rules, laws, or ethics of life.

But right now, I’m not doing this because I’m just shaken by the feeling of ‘deviation’.

Whiik-!

“Oh, young demons! Where! Knock!”

“Write! I told you to make it a habit to call me Evans!”

It’s eight o’clock.

it’s time to go see her
