Volume 1 - CH 19

The morning of the announcement of the results.

“Ugh, I’m nervous…”

Pulling a blue-faced Ifa along with me, I headed for the Academy.

Right after passing through the main gate, I saw a huge bulletin board.

“Oh, it should be that one, Ifa.”

“Seika-kun!”

She grabs my sleeve tightly.

“Even if I fail, I’ll do my best as a squire, so don’t throw me away…”

“I understand”

Let’s see, my name is …… Oh, there it is.

I got 600 written points, 120 practical skills, and a total 720 points.

Third from the top.

I probably got a perfect score in written.

The practical skills were lower than I expected, but I guess that’s about right in terms of ranking.

There are always geniuses.

And the second name is…

“What, Ifa!?”

“Wow, I’m second!? I did it, Seika-kun!!”

She scored 590 points in writing and 200 points in practical skills, for a total of 790 points.

Eh… I’m kind of shocked…

“I used three attributes, but I scored 80 points lower than Eefa in practical skills. ……?”

“Really. ……”

Ifa ponders.

“Perhaps it was wrong not to destroy the target…”

“It was……indeed!

Ifa is 200 points for both fire and wind.

On the other hand, I got 120 points with only one earth point.

If 20 points is the partial score of fire and water…it makes sense.

In other words, It’s the behavior of the examiner who seemed not to want the target to be broken.

Was that a trap to mislead the examinees?

“Congratulations Ifa”

I turn to Ifa.

“Ifa’s ruthless decision to destroy the target without mercy without being deceived by the examiner’s words and reactions bore fruit. I lost because I was still naive.”

“Uh-um…I’m not sure what to say, but I feel complicated, it’s as if I’ve been called inhuman… Ah, thank you, Seika-kun. Um, it wasn’t on purpose, you know?”

This is how the apprentice surpasses the master. ……

“More importantly, Seika-kun.”

“what?”

“Seika-kun, You’ve been telling me for years that we need to get a perfect score in memorizing subjects.”

“yes”

“Except for me and Seika, everyone else scored below 500 on the written exam.”

“What? Oh.”

It’s true.

Why? It was such an easy test. It wouldn’t be possible if it was a written exam in my previous life or an imperial examination in the Song Dynasty…

No wait.

Come to think of it, this was an exam for twelve-year-olds.

I’m not sure if it’s a good idea to think of it…… as the same as an exam to become an elite government official.

“Um, uh… uh, it was to get our spirits up! After all, there was only half a year until the exam.”

“Yeah, I’ll leave it at that. I’m grateful for your help.”

“…”

Something like this… the pressure is coming.

I’ll try not to offend Ifa as much as possible.

Oh, wait a minute.

The written test is under 500 points for all of them?

Then the first place result is…

“…!”

Look, I was surprised.

A total of 1020 points.

Of which, 600 were in practical skills.

Her name is — Amu.

“That’s amazing… Amu is that girl with the red hair, right?”

I stared at the bulletin board, unable to answer Ifa’s voice..

Huh.

I wonder if I could find her by any chance……as soon as possible.
