Episode 226 exam (5)
I couldn’t figure out what the purpose was for this problem to be stuck here.
‘… Was this what it was like to make a deal?’
I heard from Finn that Harold and William made a deal.
In other words, the fact that this appeared as a test question was probably a derivative of the deal they made.
‘Even if it’s a transaction… ‘Why is this here?’
Does this mean that the answer has already been found to the extent that it can be included in students’ exam questions?
If so, why didn’t Harold tell William this answer?
Is William not opening the door even though he knows the answer?
Lois’s mind became complicated.
‘If it’s enough to be used as a test question, it’s fair to assume you know the answer.’
If you think about it that way, the situation itself wasn’t that bad for Lois.
‘Good. I was wondering how to tell without being noticed.’
It doesn’t matter as long as Harold got the correct answer.
The problem, however, is when the answer he sought was wrong.
‘If I write it down on the test paper, Harold will look at it at least once.’
If William asks Harold for help, the answer to the problem he wrote down will also be delivered to William through Harold.
After thinking that, Lois quickly wrote down the answers to the test questions.
Ssuk ssuk-.
It took him only about 3 minutes to write down all 20 correct answers.
For that and other problems, I wrote down the answers in less than a minute, and for the last 20 questions, it took me 2 minutes.
For the last problem, it took a long time to write down not only the answer but also the detailed solution process.
Druk-.
Lois got up from her seat and walked forward holding the test paper.
The eyes of the students taking the test naturally fell on Lois.
“what?”
“already?”
A moment later, the assistant frowned at Lois in front of him.
“what?”
“I’m done.”
“… “You’re done?”
“Yes, can I go out?”
The teaching assistant chuckled after seeing the test paper Lois proudly held out.
This reaction was the same not only from the teaching assistant but also from other students taking the test.
‘Again?’
‘also?’
In the exam, which took four days, Lois submitted the answer sheet as soon as the exam was over.
There was a lot of talk among students about this.
‘Still, he is the top student in admissions… I guess they released it and paid it?’
‘No matter how smart you are, is it possible to write an answer in just a few minutes? I’m sure they either took pictures or submitted a blank paper!’
This is how a heated argument broke out over Royce’s actions.
But this time was different.
Even those who thought they would have solved the other exams were negative about this one.
Even if you give all the time, how many minutes will you be able to solve Harold’s test?
It was nonsense.
Regardless of what people around her said, Lois remained calm.
“Can I go?”
At Lois’s urging, the teaching assistant accepted the test paper and skimmed it.
Letters written only in the correct answer box, without any trace of interpretation.
Although the last question was a bit long… … .
‘You solved the last problem?’
If I had written all the other questions and left the last question blank, I might have reconsidered a bit.
However, the teaching assistant was confident after seeing the answer to the last question written down.
‘Tsk, I wrote it roughly.’
The teaching assistant waved his hand.
“Go see, it would be better to go and relax your hands beforehand. “If I try to use all of this, my wrist joints might go out.”
At this, Lois turned around and left the exam room as if she had nothing more to say.
After he left, the teaching assistant clicked his tongue and muttered to himself.
“Tsk. There are definitely people like that. These guys try to use their bodies when their brains don’t work. “Ignorant people who decided from the beginning and tried to clean up the wrong answers regardless of their test scores.”
After finishing talking to herself, the assistant’s eyes widened at the gaze directed at her.
“Everyone has a lot of free time, right? “If you’re planning on clearing up your wrong answers with the intention of throwing away your wrist like that guy did earlier, it would be a good idea to keep your head held high like that.”
As soon as those words were finished, the students’ eyes returned to the exam paper again.
Square – square -.
In a space where no breathing could be heard, the only sound was the sound of a pen tip scratching paper.
Meanwhile, Lois left the classroom and was rolling around in bed.
Deng-.
Long after the bell sounded, signaling the end of the exam, the door burst open.
“Ugh… … .”

Shiva appeared sobbing with a strange groan.
He trudged over like a zombie and fell on the bed. His face looked like he had no soul.
Lois clicked her tongue as she watched Shiba squirm intermittently.
“Tsk tsk, are we going to die just because we did something great? “It’s just a test.”
“Ugh… … .”
Shiva’s gaze slightly turns his head and looks at him.
Lois growled at the thoughts she read there.
“I know that if you say something unlucky, I will tie you in a blanket and throw you out the window.”
Shiva, who had read his inner thoughts, shook his shoulders.
Shiba quietly averted his gaze.
After lying down for a while to replenish his energy, he raised his upper body.
He looked at Lois and asked the question he had been thinking about during the written exam.
“By the way, Lois.”
“why?”
“Did you really give a blank paper while taking the written test?”
Lois chuckled at this.
He also has ears, so he hears what others say about him.
Lois answered with a sneer.
“What about blank paper? “I finished everything and came out.”
“Everything?”
“uh.”
“no way… … .”
“… What. “What was that unpleasant and disrespectful reaction?”
“It makes no sense. Even if it’s a different test… “How do you solve all the tests from earlier?”
“That’s why you can’t do it. “Why can’t I solve the problem I was asked to solve?”
“Isn’t this the problem you were asked to solve?”
“… “What do you mean?”
“Didn’t you know? Meister Harold’s final problem?”
“What is that?”
“A perfect score is the sweetest fruit that can only be achieved by beings who have achieved perfection! … This is the meister’s general theory, so the final problem is always presented as a problem that students can never solve.”
“… … .”
“They say that the last question in past exams is one of the world’s seven most difficult questions? Or a similar problem.”
“… … .”
“So Professor Harold’s test actually has a perfect score of 95. This is a really famous story… “You really didn’t know?”
“… “I didn’t know.”
Lois scratched her cheek.
‘It’s one of the world’s seven most difficult problems or a similar problem… … .’
He had written down not only the answer to that problem in great detail, but also the solution.
‘me… ‘Are you sure you did well?’
I think it might have been a little excessive… … .
But Lois soon shook her thoughts away.
‘Oh, I don’t know. ‘Let it happen.’
I’ll think about the rest later.

Two days after that.
Thump-thump-.
Many transcendental planes were running across the plain, raising dust.
The number is as many as one hundred.
If people from other continents had seen it, they would have worried that a war might have broken out.
However, the residents of the Autumn Continent, especially near Sairon, accepted the current situation very calmly.
“huh? Hehehe, is it already this time?”
“This year is no different.”
Watching 100 transcendental planes run was not that special to them.
This happened without fail around this time every year.
Thump-thump-.
The emblem symbolizing the Transcendental Academic View was emblazoned on the breastplate of the transcendental machine running at breakneck speed, so there was no need to confirm its affiliation.
The farmers who were working in the fields took a break and watched the Transcendental Period.
Meanwhile, unlike the farmers, a middle-aged man in travel clothes expressed his astonishment at the sudden appearance of the transcendental workers.
“What, what? Why the transcendental periods?!”
As if he heard that sound, giggling sounds came from all over the place.
An old man with a cane came up behind the middle-aged man, who was still looking surprised.
“Are you a foreigner?”
“Yeah, that’s right. What on earth is that? Why are there so many transcendental units… … .”
“that? “We are students in the lower class of the Transcendental Academy.”
“yes? Why students?”
“You are taking a test. Around this time, it’s an exam that lower-level students at the Transcendental Academy take. Clue.”
“What on earth is this test that’s causing such a fuss?”
“It’s a joint practical test… … . “Hey, do you see that mountain over there?”
The old man’s cane went up.
As the middle-aged man’s gaze followed the cane, he saw a very small mountain rising up at the edge of the plain.
“Yes, I can see it.”
“It starts from the Transcendental Academy and returns to the Transcendental Academy with the flag at the top of the mountain. Testing mobility, endurance, efficient distribution of elemental power, etc… “They say they select the top performers with good skills and even take a ssambakjil test later on.”
The middle-aged man asked, surprised by the fairly specific explanation.
“Are you affiliated with the Transcendental Studies Center?”
“Kkeulkeul, who are the officials? “Even if you’ve lived in this neighborhood for just a few years, you all know this story.”
The old man, who gave me a humorous smile, raised his head and looked at the transcendental machine moving away.
“by the way… “This year’s freshmen are quite capable.”
“… Do you see that in your eyes? “They all look the same to me, right?”
The old man answered the traveler’s question with a smile.
“I’ve seen that shit dozens of times in this place, you man! Just by looking at the way it runs, you can get an accurate estimate! Let’s see, there are five planes in front of me, right? “In my opinion, those five are the most talented.”
“Well, isn’t it natural to be at the front?”
“Uh-huh! You don’t know! Just running in front is not enough! Doesn’t the movement look light? “While the other guys are running with all their power, these five are running by distributing their power skillfully!”
“… is that so?”
No matter how much I looked at it, I couldn’t really tell, but the middle-aged man nodded, thinking it was just that.
“Hello, let’s wait and see. “After a little while, those five planes will pass by.”
The middle-aged man was secretly curious about the confident old man’s story.
So he flopped down on the spot.
To check whether what the old man said was true.
And just like that, about 30 minutes passed.
Thump-thump-.
Huge footsteps could be heard in the distance, and the transcendental plane was approaching.
The number is exactly five.
I couldn’t even see where the other transcendental planes that ran with me were.
Perhaps the gap has widened significantly.
“Huh, really?”
I don’t know if those five cars were the five cars in the lead, but I thought they were probably right.
Therefore, the old man’s accurate prediction could not help but be surprising.
‘They say you can’t ignore experience… … .’
The insight of the old man who had lived in Cyron for decades was as accurate as that of any other Transcendental period official.

While students are taking the aircraft evaluation, which is the highlight of the semester exam.
Harold was continuing his thoughts in his lab.
“hmm… … .”
Harold groaned softly.
His skin looked very dull after not sleeping properly for several days.
The dark spots under his eyes also showed his physical condition, but despite this, Harold was staring intently at the blackboard, as if he had forgotten how tired he was.
To be exact, it is the ‘problem’ that William wrote down on the blackboard.
How much time has passed like that?
“her… … .”
A sigh flowed from Harold’s mouth.
‘It’s difficult.’
At first, I thought I could figure it out after a few days of research.
But it didn’t take long to realize that it was just his own conceit.
“It’s the fourth dimension… … .”
There are hundreds of variables that arise when the dimensional coefficient increases from one dimension to two dimensions.
But transforming a one-dimensional technique into a four-dimensional one?
I couldn’t even guess how many variables would be derived from it.
“hmm… … .”
My temples are throbbing from working too hard.
Harold looked away from the blackboard for a moment and rubbed the back of his neck.
It was that moment.
smart-.
“Meister, this is Tom.”
“… “Come in.”
Tom was William’s first-level apprentice and assistant.
The door opened and Tom bowed his head politely, holding a thick wad of paper in both hands.
“I brought it after the written exam was finished grading.”
“Leave it over there. “I’ll look into it later.”
“yes.”
At Harold’s command, Tom placed 100 test papers on the desk.
Afterwards, Tom, who was about to leave, stopped when he saw where Harold’s gaze was directed.
“This… “Isn’t this the last question of this test?”
“right.”
“How difficult is it?”
“How difficult… … .”
Harold thought for a moment about his immediate apprentice’s question and then sighed.
“If I can’t solve this problem… “The world’s seven most difficult problems will increase to eight.”
“… … ?!”
Tom’s eyes widened.
I expected it to be difficult, but I didn’t expect it to be one of the seven most difficult problems.
He shook his head and looked at Harold’s dull face and said worriedly.
“Research is good, but I also want you to take care of your health.”
“Don’t worry about me. What about the students’ grades?”
“It appears that the students admitted this year are bright students. There are 10 people with high scores of 80 or more. “There are three of them who got perfect scores.”
“… “Full score?”
As Harold’s eyebrows twitched, Tom hastily corrected himself.
“Oh, I’m sorry. “95 points.”
“Right… I get it. “You worked hard, so go and rest.”
“Yes, then, I hope you, Meister, can rest as well… … .”
Tom bowed his head at Harold’s command to congratulate him and left the laboratory.
Harold, who was left alone in the lab, stared at the blackboard again.
Next to Harold.
The students’ test papers were piled high, as if they were waiting to be examined.
A long time passes again.
“after… … .”
Harold let out a long sigh and rubbed his dry eyes.
Then he turned his attention to the test paper Tom had brought.
No matter how much I thought about it, if I couldn’t come up with an answer, I had to cool my head for a while.
Harold took the students’ test papers and started going through them one by one.
Sarak- Sarak-.
Tom organized Harold by score in a way that was nice to see.
From the top to the bottom, the test papers were for those with higher scores.
Harold, who was scanning the test paper, smiled with satisfaction.
“It’s neat.”
Tom’s grading was flawless as he was the apprentice he trusted.
Nevertheless, he carefully and meticulously examined the students’ answers.
How much time has passed like that?
There are only 3 test papers left now.
It was the 95-point test that Tom mentioned.
The owner of that first chapter was Bün.
The solution process and answers are written in detail.
Seeing signs of effort, Harold nodded in satisfaction and turned to the next page.
Surprisingly, Shiva’s name was written on the next page that was revealed.
Although it was less complicated than Bürn’s test paper, Shiva’s test paper was just as dense with complex solution procedures as Bürn’s.
When Harold confirmed that there were no problems with the two students’ test papers, he turned to the last page.
“… … ?”
For the first time, his eyes widened.
Unlike the previous two sheets, this test paper was very clean.
There was no solution process, only the answers were written down.
Harold checked the name written at the top of the test paper.
“Lois? “That crazy white-haired guy.”
No matter how many students there were, there was no way they wouldn’t remember such a unique guy.
Harold, remembering Lois’ face, chuckled.
Then he noticed another difference between Lois’ test paper and the previous two.
“hmm?”
Just the last problem.
In all the test papers so far, the answer box for the last question was always empty.
But isn’t the answer and solution process written only on Lois’ test paper?
Tom, the teaching assistant, must have thought that the question was obviously wrong, so he left a diagonal mark indicating that it was wrong.
However, Harold, who had to check all students’ problems, naturally read the last problem solved by Lois.
One letter, one letter.
The more he checked each spell, the more Harold’s eyes slowly opened.
“… her?”
When his eyes landed on the last correct answer.
“This is this?!”
He jumped up from his seat and a cry of astonishment came out of his mouth.
