Academy’s Genius Swordsman

< 60. Interim evaluation (2) >

#60

At best, I was guessing it was a nomination system, but it seems it wasn’t. Kratir, who was suddenly standing next to Nabirose, clapped her hands. match! Ronan’s eyes darkened.

“uh?”

It was the same feeling as when I was kidnapped by Kratir the other day. Fortunately it didn’t last long. My eyes brightened up again with the feeling of the five intestines roaring. Seeing the unfamiliar scenery, Ronan frowned.

“What is it, damn it.”

The sound of crashing waves echoed from all directions. The damp sea breeze smelled of salt.

Ronan shook his head and looked around. The beach was dark gray with no sand and only rocks. Dark blue waves were crashing under the cliffs that stretched along the coastline.

‘Is it an island…?’

On the land side, huge broad-leaved trees were densely lined. It was a landscape close to the primitive that could not be felt by human touch. Adeshan, who was right next to her, was looking around her hands and feet with her eyes wide open.

“Wow, this is Kratir-sama’s space magic. It’s the first time I’ve experienced it myself.”

Most of the students had a similar reaction. Ronan tilted his head.

“Isn’t this a place that even seniors don’t know?”

“yes? Yes. The place where you see the midterm evaluation changes every time. right! You armor!”

“Everyone pay attention.”

Adeshan was about to take off the light armor again. Nabirose’s voice resounded in the sea breeze. She was looking around the students with a suitcase in one hand. Nabirose, who grasped the number of people, continued.

“great. Since no one seems to be missing, I will explain the rules of the midterm evaluation.”

“yes!!”

“As you all know, my classes are oriented towards ‘practical’. I would like to send all of you on a field trip to the battlefield in the South if you like it… but realistically, that is impossible.”

The students’ faces turned white. Only Ronan rolled her lips in admiration. it’s a battlefield After all, there was a way.

“So, this midterm evaluation was conceived as a substitute. You are randomly assigned to this narrow island and must fight until there is only one left. Everyone, look at this.”

Nabirose opened the trunk. Inside the bag were well over a hundred thin black bracelets. She continued to explain.

“It’s an awareness bracelet designed for testing. The moment you kick this, you will be transported to a random location on the island. It is also a shielding device, which forcibly transports the wearer to the pileon if they are likely to peel off, die, or suffer irreparable damage.”

“her.”

Ronan chuckled. It was the first time I’d seen such a large amount of expensive space-based magic tools. To use such things only for testing, it was possible in the Phileon Academy period.

Of course, that wasn’t the only surprise. Nabirose’s words meant that you should fight without worrying about your opponent dying.

“Don’t be afraid to get hurt. The medical staff and the best healers in Phileon are on standby. If you are injured enough to not die, you can be treated immediately.”

She also added that there are no separate rules for fouls. In short, it was a story about making a surprise attack, forming a team, and attacking one person, but not stopping them.

‘That’s why everyone came dressed like that.’

Everyone seemed to understand why they had come all prepared. There were also students who came with long-range weapons that were not used in class or backpacks the size of a torso.

“Whoa, I’m nervous. If we meet, will we be on the same side?”

“Not bad. To be honest, I’m a little scared too.”

“Kikiki, it must be fun to catch the juniors again this time.”

Even though I knew it beforehand, it was a shocking content. It was around the time when the noise of the students grew louder. Nabirose started calling the students one by one.

“Then, let’s come out one by one and take the recognition bracelet. Schlieffen Sinivan de Grancia.”

Schlieffen walked out silently and wore a bracelet. For a moment, his shape was distorted and then disappeared out of nowhere. Cheers erupted from everywhere. Soon after, Adeshan’s name was called.

“Next, Adeshan.”

“Fu… if you ever meet, never look at me. Understand?”

“I will try.”

“Ahahaha, what is that? Then see you later!”

Adeshan wearing the bracelet disappeared. Before long, the murmurs of students were heard from nearby.

“What is it, not assistant? What was he thinking about?”

“The person I met was completely free. Because one person eats and enters.”

Ronan narrowed his brow. Babies like that were everywhere. He was looking around looking for the student he was just talking to.

“Next, Ronan.”

“Yes.”

Nabi Rose called Ronan. As Ronan moved, the group of students split on both sides.

It was all thanks to Cardan, who became bald, and the bastards who were in the interview. Among the upperclassmen in the third grade and above, Ronan’s nickname was hardening to the extent of ‘Senior Destroyer’.

Ronan picked up the bracelet. Nabi Rose, who had not said a word, quietly opened her mouth.

“Do it in moderation.”

“I agree with the instructor saying that practice is important.”

“you···”

“hi.”

Ronan wore a bracelet. Immediately, my vision became blurry, and a completely different landscape appeared. Tall trees were sprouting up everywhere. The faint sound of the waves seemed to be in the middle of the forest I had seen from afar.

“Looks like a ghost . . . grabs and plucks the hair.”

A laugh came out spontaneously. Space magic really didn’t fit even after experiencing it. As I turned on the stretch and was about to move, a question suddenly crossed my mind.

‘Wait a minute. Is this right for me to cut?’

Ronan stood still. He could cut the mana that touched the weapon.

If you cut off a student’s neck while having fun wielding a knife because you were told to do it like a real game, there wouldn’t be anything less fun than that. It was a car I was thinking about as I rubbed my chin.

Suddenly, about five steps ahead, the space shook, and a male student appeared.

“uh?”

The boy immediately took a vigilant stance and began to look around. It didn’t seem like he was too nervous to be frozen.

It was the moment he turned his head to the left. Ronan made eye contact and waved his hand in greeting.

“hi.”

The boy’s eyes widened as if they were about to pop out. He shouted as he grabbed the polearm in his hand.

“You, you!”

“Calm down, calm down. Do you think you are lucky?”

“die!”

Suddenly, a male student sprinted with a polearm. The spear blade that contained mana was shining blue. Ronan sighed and lowered his posture. Whoops! As soon as I lowered my head, a blue arc was drawn above my head.

“Damn it, calm down.”

Ronan pulled the hilt. Two sword strikes were fired towards the spear. It was the moment when the boy was about to collect the polearm.

thud! The polearm’s head fell to the floor at the same time as the spear was cut into three pieces. Ronan tripped and knocked down the leg of the male student, who had a bewildered expression on his face.

“Aww!”

“I’ve got something to think about, so wait a little bit.”

Ronan said, pointing the tip of the sword to the boy’s neck. It was a car I was wondering if there was no way to find out. The male student, who had been clenching his teeth, suddenly raised his upper body rough.

“shit! Don’t insult me!”

“uh?! Yumma!”

It was the moment when the tip of the knife was about to touch the neck of the boy. hooked. The sensation of stabbing something other than flesh passed through his fingertips.

Shoo! Suddenly, the student’s shape was distorted and disappeared out of nowhere. Ronan, who had been stunned for a while, scratched his head and muttered.

“…that’s good.”

It was not a shield type, but a type that detects and transmits threats, so it seems that no catastrophe has occurred. Before long, a faint smile appeared on his lips.

“Then we can just do it.”

Ronan suddenly aimed at the tree and threw a La Mancha. La Mancha, which flew in a straight line, penetrated through the dense leaves. Crisp! At the same time as the knife protruded from the opposite side of the leaf, a girl in a leather jacket fell from the tree.

“Ahhh!”

In her hand was a long bow. The girl fell to the floor from the head without even taking a break.

If it was originally, the neck was broken and it was at the height of death. However, as her top was about to touch the ground, her shape was distorted and disappeared. Twigs and arrows fell on the spot where the girl had disappeared.

“You should have hidden your presence a little more.”

Ronan giggled and walked over and picked up the La Mancha. It seemed that magic was triggered even in other types of death than fighting. After all, it would have to have that level of stability to pass such a crazy test.

There seemed to be a little over a hundred competitors. Ronan moved in the direction of the wave castle. There was no particular reason, I just wanted to see the sea.

“Yeah, you bastard!”

spatula.

“Aww! Me, I’m weak…! The others…!”

spatula.

By the time we got out of the woods, we encountered two more students. One tried to attack, the other fled, but both were cut down as soon as they saw it. Ronan muttered, licking his lips.

“There is no blood, so there is no bitter taste…”

Before long, cliffs and magnificent horizons appeared. The sea was a deep dark blue that I had never seen before. The cliffs were sharp as if they had been cut in small pieces, and the difference in elevation with the sea seemed to be well over thirty meters.

Kang…!

Kang…!

At that moment, a metallic sound was heard riding on the wind. The sharp grain of the sound was like the sound of knives hitting each other.

“Well?”

Ronan turned his head in the direction of the sound. I could see the students fighting fiercely from a distance. Ronan’s eyes widened when he saw the face of one of them.

“Adeshan?”

Every time he swung the sword, his black hair was fluttering. Perhaps it was because he had been studying hard, his swordsmanship posture was close to the norm. Ronan clicked his tongue.

‘…the sword is too slow.’

However, unlike the plausible appearance, the battle itself was completely inferior. Adeshan was pushed even though the height difference was more than one head. The girl who was holding the sword against her shuddered.

“Ahahaha! A little more resistance!”

“Ugh…!”

In fact, it was closer to one side playing with it. Adeshan swung his longsword vertically. The girl lightly twisted her shoulders to dodge the attack and then kicked Adeshan’s stomach.

“Gagging!”

“I didn’t know I was going to be the lucky one.”

Ronan’s eyes widened. It was the same voice I heard in the waiting area. Ronan pondered for a moment, then kicked off the ground and ran. Adeshan shouted, swinging her sword in succession.

“Kacha! Don’t play around and do it right…!”

“No, I’m going to play with more. What do you do when you’re tall and pretty? So weak.”

Adeshan bit her lips. A girl named Kacha was deliberately evading a critical hit and shooting a sword. pit! A small cut appeared on Adeshan’s shoulder.

It was a moment when a cruel smile fell on Kacha’s lips again. For a moment, she felt faint and turned her head. Ronan’s face came close to his eyes.

“uh?”

I didn’t even notice it was coming. Ronan pulled the hilt. Two stabs were fired at the girl.

Whoa! Blood gushed out as the blade that had dug into the shoulder came out. A knife fell from her hand.

“Ahhh!”

“Isn’t it fun to play with a dick? I have fun too.”

bang! Ronan kicked her in the chest and knocked her back. There was no transmission, not fatal or maiming. Adeshan cried out in a bewildered voice.

“Ro, Ronan?!”

“Oh yeah. Seniors do the finishing.”

Ronan pointed to Kacha with the tip of his chin. Her arms were paralyzed, and she was screaming and rolling on the floor. There was no leeway in the face that had been messed up with tears and runny nose. Kacha looked at Adeshan and appealed.

“Oh, Adeshan! help me···! We are motives!”

Adeshan did not answer. After taking a couple of deep breaths, she swung her sword. The appearance of Kacha disappeared with a clean pounding sound. Adeshan sighed as he slammed the tip of his sword into the ground.

“Whoa…”

“Well done. I’m usually hesitant even though I know I’m not going to die.”

“…thank you first. What are you doing here?”

“I came here just because it was noisy. Right now, I’m thinking about what to do with my senior.”

Ronan said quietly. For a moment, goosebumps ran down Adeshan’s back. I forgot for a while. It was temporary, but it was a relationship where the boy in front of him had to point a knife at each other.

And it was no exaggeration to say that Ronan was the most dangerous enemy on the island. Adeshan, clutching the hilt tightly, said in a trembling voice.

“…don’t look at me.”

“That is my heart. Shall we walk?”

Ronan left those words and started walking as he pleases. After a moment’s hesitation, Adeshan followed him. Soon after, two people standing side by side walked along the coastal cliff.

“The scenery is nice. When I look at the color of the sea, it looks like the southern sun, but I don’t know where it is.”

“Why aren’t you cutting? Do you think I will be happy with this?”

“Yeah, I’m still worried. My seniors really make it hard for me.”

“What does that mean?”

Ronan licked his lips. He was the most concerned about the treatment of Adeshan in all these days. Much more than it was at the time of the Dolan Affair.

‘It’s too dangerous.’

The fight against Nebula Clazier was about to intensify. In every corner of the continent, monsters like Phrygia must be lurking.

The war with the venerable bastards, which existed before the Empire was even founded, would be very long and arduous, as Sarante said.

Ronan lifted his head slightly and looked at Adeshan’s side face. Gray eyes and pure white skin were the first things that caught my eye. A high, sharp nose was protruding profusely.

I didn’t know him well in my previous life, but he was a very pretty person. His long, black hair fluttered in the sea breeze. Ronan smiled bitterly and stopped in place.

“Um, fine. I have decided.”

“decision?”

“Pull out the knife. Adeshan.”

Ronan, who had his back on the cliff, faced Adeshan. her face hardened. Ronan spoke quietly.

“I won’t use a knife. And if my senior’s attack hits me even once, I’m going to lose.”

“Are you kidding me…? Are you playing with me like Kacha?”

“I am not joking or playing with it. Instead, if the senior loses…”

Ronan drew the tail. The sticky lips did not come off.

Stop talking nonsense, go back to your hometown, and cut some fabric. I couldn’t possibly say that word. Ronan, who had barely made up his mind, was the car to follow.

“surface?”

“So… nonsense… Nimmy!”

Suddenly Ronan ran towards Adeshan. He wrapped his arms around Adeshan’s waist and pulled him back.

“Aww!”

She was blushing and was about to shout something. A shadow fell over their heads.

Soon after, something heavy fell on Adeshan’s place. Aww! A huge pillar of dust rose with a roar. Adeshan, who had become contemplative, stepped back.

“Go, what is this all of a sudden!”

“Hey, I’ll save this.”

A voice came from the dust. It was a bit of a low-pitched tone. Suddenly, a bald man in heavy armor walked out of the dust. An ignorantly large battle hammer was slant across his shoulders.

“nice to meet. Ronan. I heard a lot of rumors.”

“What are you?”

“It’s Ayun Dalan. Can we talk for a moment?”

Adeshan’s eyes widened. She attached to Ronan and said in a whisper.

“Sah, it’s the third-year senior…!”

Aiun was a master of the battle hammer who stood out in Nabirose’s class. As if to disprove him, the place where the hammer had just dropped was dug as if a meteorite had fallen. Ronan said as he spit on the floor.

“I don’t know if it’s A-Woon or what, but tell me what it is. We were in the middle of an important conversation, but the motherfucker…”

“It’s also rough as rumored. Well, it’s not a big deal… because public opinion in our school year is not good for various reasons. I’m here to do something similar as a referee.”

Aiun lowered the hammer head to the floor. thud! I simply put it down, and a dull sound resounded.

“When you’re in third grade, will you teach me how to poop with your mouth?”

“Well, at the same time, there are things that are trying to guide promising juniors. When you get drunk on your skills, you tend to become arrogant. As you. If you fail at the beginning of the exam, that bridge of your nose will also be slightly bent.”

“Ayun. I got them all.”

bang! bang! At that moment, two other large men landed on either side of Ei-Woon. Both were bald and had a similar appearance to Ei-Woon. Seeing the tight threesome, Ronan snorted.

“It’s just that they run around. Aren’t you even sulky?”

“In practice, you shouldn’t lose face.”

“What kind of bullshit? I asked if it would be rude if the three bald mountains gathered around. Humanly, even plucking grass and planting it in your head, man.”

“…you really can’t.”

Suddenly, A-Woon leaped into the air. Whoops! The battle hammer was falling in an ignorant arc. Ronan stepped back lightly and avoided the attack. Aww! The hammer slammed into Ronan’s spot. blatantly. At the same time as the cracks spread, the entire edge of the cliff where Ronan stood was separated. Ronan grinned.

“You do stupid things.”

It was the car that Ronan was about to take a light leap and climb up. The two large men behind Eiwoon threw themselves at Ronan. It was an action that could not come out unless it was the intention of falling off the cliff together.

‘It was a bait from the beginning.’

Ronan pulled the hilt. Scratch! The sword shot that was shot like a bouncing tore the heads and sides of the two of them. The student with a torn head shook and disappeared.

Blood spurted from the other’s side. But he ignored the injury and hugged Ronan tightly. The two began to fall down the cliff. Ronan looked up at the top of the cliff and murmured.

“Damn it, Adeshan.”

Aww! The dust exploded again from above. It looked like Eiwoon’s hammer had hit it once more.

Ronan, holding La Mancha in reverse, put a knife in the back of his bald head. The weight was gone and the body regained its freedom. The ground was moving away at a fast pace.
