58 – Midterm Exam – 1
My memory of taking the midterm exam was quite a long time ago.
Not to mention the first period of possession when I didn’t have time to take exams, even after returning to the original world, I had to apply for a leave of absence due to the severe trauma.
There were exams when I received private lessons at the mansion, and the academy entrance exam was also an exam, but it was quite a while ago that I took such a standard midterm exam.
If you add up the time I lived in the first world and the time I lived in this world, it would be a little over 30 years.
“It wasn’t that difficult.”
And this was my impression of the midterm exam, which I experienced again after decades.
My actions did not cause a butterfly effect and dramatically change the test questions, and since I had already done everything, even without Priscilla’s help, the questions were solved quite easily.
“Yes. It wasn’t a big deal. “It all came from where I studied.”
Beside her, Aria nodded her head.
“Is it okay to take this to mean that I have memorized all my major books?”
“Yes? If you’re going to take a test, don’t you have to memorize the progress you made? “How can I take a test without memorizing the books?”
“... ....”
He memorized the entire 200-page exam scope, which is definitely an action worthy of a roman protagonist. There won’t be just one theory test.
“...... “I’m trash.”
Even though the words were directed at me, there was actually someone else who was harmed. If he had not been selected as the Holy Sword, Brünnhild would have had no connection with Bellium Academy.
As soon as her exam was over, Brünnhild, who had been sinking with her head on her desk and feeling endless self-destruction, heard those words and shot her dead.
“So I told you to study. “Did you think you would always sleep during lectures and get good grades?”
Maybe it’s because he hasn’t grown at all because of me, but even though two months have passed, he hasn’t changed much compared to when we first became friends. We need to gradually let them gain experience, but there needs to be some demons that show up.
“You did it a week ago...... That’s why it’s even more shocking. “I never thought I wouldn’t be able to solve even one problem.”
Well, no matter what kind of wind was blowing, I did work hard at the end.
As expected from being the best academy in the empire, the level of problems was so enormous that ignoring it for a few days was not an option. In fact, it was true that Brünnhild had no conscience, so I had nothing to say.
“Well, wouldn’t that be possible? As for Leona, she spent a lot of time focusing on her studies, so it was natural that she couldn’t solve a single problem...... Also...... That is...... Ah, anyway, you could probably get 0 points, right?”
“Aria, you are the worst.”
Meanwhile, in return for her consolation, Arya held a grand feast, saying nothing, and then she plunged her dagger into Brünnhild’s heart. Brünnhild, doubly depressed, clung to me.
“The next test is...... It’s a wide-area annihilation spell. “You don’t have to hit Mira, right?”
“Uh. She said she could take it whether her grades were confirmed or not, but she was just going to skip it. If I go in, it’s a trick. “What are you doing by provoking other people?”
While everyone is struggling to get even a little better score, there is someone who comes in to take the test just for fun, even though he or she is guaranteed a perfect score? Even if you’re like me, you can’t look at me with kind eyes.
“Um...... So, if I get a perfect score, I will have the same rank as Mira?”
“You’re confident, right?”
“Of course. I told you. “I won’t lose next time.”
Aria stuck out her tongue and smiled. The last time he saw me, he was depressed, but I don’t know what happened, but he seemed to have gained confidence again.
Maybe I reacted like that because the first test was easier than I thought.
“That’s right. What should I do for lunch? “The restaurant might be open, but honestly, it’s a bit of an odd time to eat anything, right?”
It was held at the same time as the lecture and lasted 1 hour and 30 minutes, so compared to usual time, half of the time was empty. At 10:30, it was still an awkward time to eat lunch.
“Exception? “What exception?”
“I heard that Leona and Mira were to meet last?”
“...... “Is that allowed?”
“The chairman himself suggested it, saying that it would be a shame to meet them in the middle. While Mira was away, she also asked first-year students, and none of them objected. “I guess everyone thinks that’s right.”
“... ....”
Like Brünnhild, I took my seat in the first-year waiting room with an expression of subtle understanding. This was where Priscilla, who was far away, could see me.
Priscilla was sitting in the audience seat feeling very depressed, but as soon as I appeared, she fixed her eyes on me and smiled brightly.
Rosaria was on standby near the Colosseum so that she could be deployed at any time in case she needed divine treatment.
She originally invited a high-ranking priest from the Starlight Church to watch, but it is said that Rosaria herself suggested it because she was in a turbulent mood. Of course the Academy welcomed me with open arms.
ᅳThat’s right. Did you hear the news, Mira? They say you can bet money on which of the first years will win this exam, but you and the warrior are excluded from the odds.
ᅳThere are more than one thing I want to ask, but let me start by asking why they were excluded.
ᅳBecause it’s such a scam. Even if you guess how much the dividends were, you would still lose money. I heard they will open a one-time bet later if they both go to the finals?

I chuckled as I remembered the conversation that took place yesterday. Personally, I think that is the real reason why the participation rate among second and third graders is high.
It is a legal gambling game that is only available four times a year within the academy, and is quietly turned a blind eye to because it is not good to restrict students too much.
Given that the hero Brunhild was excluded and I was also excluded, it seemed like the rumor had spread to the 2nd and 3rd graders as well.
“Ah, ah! Welcome to the Colosseum, gentlemen! “From now on, you will be taking the midterm exam for the practical sparring subject!”
A voice amplification magic tool, so Jake just stood in front of the microphone and shouted loudly. Gentlemen, this is still the academy.
Anyway, perhaps because the situation itself was exciting, the first-year students cheered loudly, not caring at all what they were called. The same was true for second and third graders who had their own money at stake.
“Everyone received at least one magic tool upon entering, right? That is an item specially made by the Chairman, a magic tool that converts the damage received into objective numbers and displays it! If you take damage over a certain amount, you will lose, so keep this in mind! “It also has the highest level of defensive magic, so you can fight with all your might!”
It’s a magic tool that sounds like a scam at first glance, but the reason why it’s only used for student exams and not in real life is simple.
This entire Colosseum is a place made just for that magic tool.
As it has fraudulent options, it means that proper operation is impossible without this level of support. There is no way such a thing could be used in actual combat where the battlefield changes quickly.
“Then I’ll come back! See you in the finals, Mira!”
Brünnhild, who was in the first group, came out strongly. I was in the last group.
“Mr. Mira.”
There were quite a few people, so I was watching everyone go to their partner in the overlapping space to take the test at once, when Aria spoke to her.
“Would you like to make a bet with me?”
“I’ll listen and see what it is. “If it’s an absurd bet, I won’t do it.”
“If we keep winning according to the bracket, me and Leona will meet in the semifinals.”
“That will happen.”
“I don’t know if I can beat Leona or not.”
I looked to the side, slightly surprised by the completely unexpected content.
“I’ll bet that I win.”
Aria was smiling completely different from usual, perhaps even slightly creepy.
“What about Mira?”
