After school is over.
Leo headed to the Tower of Heroes in the center of the academy where the student council was located.
Leo arrived in front of the Tower of Heroes and looked up at the tall Tower of Heroes building.
“It’s so damn high.”
Leo was impressed.
“You’re a freshman.”
“What’s going on here?”
“Oh my, it’s cute.”
Older students passing by spotted Leo and muttered as if they were surprised.
Hero’s Tower is a place where older students often go.
First-year students had an instinctive fear, unique to lower-grade students, toward seniors who had experienced all sorts of hardships.
So, I tended to avoid going to areas where older students frequented.
“oh? “Leo?”
I turned my head when someone called my name.
Toura, a 5th year student from the Department of Magic, was standing there.
“What’s going on here?”
“I have something to see the student council president.”
“To Reese?”
Toura, who was tilting her head, nodded.
“Would you like to follow me?”
Toura took Leo into the Tower of Heroes.
“So, Leo. When are you planning on giving up other majors?”
“I have no intention of quitting my other majors.”
“Leo. As I said before, time is limited. “I know you excel in other majors, but in my opinion, you specialize most in magic.”
Toura grumbled dissatisfied, but said nothing more.
This is because I was called in by professors the other day and heard what they said.
Leo let out an exclamation of admiration as he looked inside the Tower of Heroes.
Portraits of numerous heroes hung at the entrance to the building.
All of them were Lumern graduates.
The facilities were also so good that they could not be compared to the first-year building.
It’s not that the first-year building lacks facilities, but the Tower of Heroes was literally overwhelming.
When I stood in the elevator operated by floating magic with Toura, I went upstairs in an instant.
We arrived at the floor used by the student council.
“Hello, Vice President. Who is that first year student?”
“This is Leo.”
“Leo? “The famous first-year representative?”
The third-year student council officer’s eyes lit up.
“huh. “I came here because I had something to do with the student council president.”
“Have you been interested in student council since your freshman year? “It’s amazing.”
He smiled and took the documents with him.
Overall, the student council had a very busy atmosphere.
“Now that I think about it, the assignment for the first-year midterm exam was to develop unique magic, right?”
“yes.”
“Do you have any ideas in mind?”
“It’s a magic spell system based on non-attribute magical power.”
“Based on non-attribute magical power? This is my first time hearing this concept. “Can you explain?”
“Wizards have main magic attributes.”
“okay. So there is such a thing as opposites. Even if all attributes are handled, opposites cannot be used at the same time.”
“yes. “I want to use non-attribute magic to freely handle magic of all attributes to increase utility.”
“That’s an interesting idea. But it’s absurd.”
Torua chuckled.
“There’s a reason people don’t try.”
“i know.”
Leo smiled and nodded.
“But it’s better to have something special, right?”
Toura smiled, crossing her arms.
It seems that the junior in front of me is not just fluent in magic techniques.
‘For a wizard, trying new things is always important. ‘It’s such a waste.’
A junior who is more of a wizard than anyone else is coming to this class.
‘Children with talent need to have a clear path from the beginning. ‘I need to have a serious discussion with Professor Ren.’
Torua stood in front of the student council president’s office, determined to somehow make the Department of Magic more fair.
smart-
“come in.”
Suddenly-
“Hello, Reese. “Leo said he wanted to see you, so I brought you here.”
“Leo?”
Reese, who was sitting in his office and working his quill, stood up with a happy expression on his face.

“Okay, Leo. “What business do you have for me?”
“Student President.”
“You can call me hyung when you’re in private.”
Reese said with a grin and Leo nodded.
“Then, Brother Reese. “I have a favor to ask.”
“What?”
“I want to enter the Forbidden Library.”
“I don’t know why you want to enter the Forbidden Library, but students cannot enter the Forbidden Library without permission.”
Toura said, reaching for the snacks on one side of the student council president’s office.
“Can’t even the student council president enter without permission?”
“Unfortunately, this is beyond my authority.”
Reese smiled, putting his chin on his clasped hands.
“Of course, it doesn’t mean that there is no way for students to get in.”
“What is it?”
“We’re conquering the hero dungeon.”
“Hero Dungeon?”
“okay. “It is customary for the conqueror to return the pages recovered by conquering the hero dungeon to the hero record directly.”
“Of course, even then, you cannot read the books in the banned library without permission. So give up.”
Toura grumbled.
To sum it up, there is no need to enter during the first year, and even if you do, it is difficult to obtain the information you want.
‘Then we can sneak in.’
It’s human psychology to tell people not to do something.
Ris and Toura, unaware that Leo had reached that conclusion, smiled meaningfully at Leo.
“How about preparing for the exam? “Aren’t you nervous because it’s your first test?”
“I’m doing pretty well.”
Leo calmly answered Reese’s question.
“Is that okay? “You know that in Lumern, the grade representative changes every time there’s an exam, right?”
“yes.”
“There must be a lot of kids aiming for your spot, right?”
Toura said while eating a crunchy cookie.
Because it was the beginning of the semester, it had not been highlighted yet, but being Lumern’s class representative was a position with many advantages.
Being a grade representative literally meant being the best in Lumern, where only the best gather.
Not only do you get to participate as a representative in various internal and external events, but the benefits that come with it are significant.
It is literally the face of the rider in question.
Crucially, the grade representative position was also the position closest to the position of the next student council president.
“You know that your rider is highly expected from the higher-ups in Rumern, right? “Can you protect your position as class representative from such prominent kids?”
“I’m not particularly interested in being the class representative. but.”
Leo grinned.
“I have no intention of giving up my top position.”
“You have great confidence, don’t you? “I’ll be looking forward to it.”
Reese smiled contentedly.
***
The first year exam after admission was enough to make students nervous.
But on the other hand, all first-year students were very much looking forward to this exam.
Chelsea, who was sitting in the stands at the parade ground in the first-grade classroom building, said, bobbing her legs.
“As Professor Harlind said, things have changed noticeably in just a few months.”
I twirled my wand in the air and muttered softly.
A rune filled with magical power spread out in the air, and the spell was completed in an instant.
The same Van Teid looked at that and stuck out his tongue.
“It’s fast as always.”
“High-speed casting is a long-term skill. Of course, it’s incredibly fast.”
As Halind predicted, the first-year students’ skills improved instantly.
Even Chelsea, who has received all kinds of excellent education since childhood as a famous hero, has grown noticeably.
How much have you changed and where are you now?
The freshmen were feeling a strange sense of confidence and excitement.
“Anyway, I’m worried about Leo.”
As Chelsea spoke while looking at the parade ground, Tade sighed.
“Well, there are quite a few guys targeting Leo.”
As it was the early days of admission, most major classes were based on theory rather than practice.
And the one who stood out in class was none other than Leo.
An honor student recognized by all professors.
However, Leo also had some weaknesses that could be evaluated as weaknesses.
“The Lumern exam has a lot of practical content, so do you think it will be okay?”
Auror, magical power, spiritual power.
Leo’s strength as the basis for his supernatural ability was weak.
In particular, Leo was taking three major courses at the same time.
Normally, it would be even more different from the students who only dug one well.
Therefore, there were quite a few students who evaluated Leo as simply being good at theory and weak at practical skills.
“Of course, the middle to upper tier kids will be no match for Leo, but I think the upper tier kids will be overwhelmed.”
“At this point, I think it would be a good idea for him to choose a major as well.”
While Tade muttered.
Professor Ain, who was in the middle of the parade ground, said.
“From now on, we will begin the first-year knight science practical exam.”
A voice filled with Aura echoed throughout the vast parade ground.
Then whistles and applause poured in from all over.
There are still two weeks left until the exam period, but the practical exam for the engineer department started today.
The parade ground in the first-year classroom building was filled with students who came to watch the practical exam in knighthood.
Among them were not only first-year students but also upper-year seniors.
“Does Carl really want to go into business?”
“Money gathers where people gather. “That’s his theory.”
When Chelsea said something as if it were absurd, Taide chuckled.
As he said, Carl had gone out to sell snacks.
“Professor Sedgen.”
Carl, who used floating magic to float snack stands around, approached Class 1’s homeroom professor, Sedgen.
“What’s going on? Cal student.”
Professor Sedzen looked at Carl with a sour face.
When a student from Halind, whom he regarded as his rival, approached him, his reaction was not very pleasant.
“How about popcorn and drinks?”
“Heh, do you think I’ll buy that? “Sell it to your homeroom teacher, Halind, and your classmates.”
As Sedjen sneered, Karl made a sullen expression.
“I thought Professor Sedzen would buy it because I thought he had leadership skills and knew how to raise the morale of the class, but I guess I was mistaken and was rude.”
“Heh. “You would be sorely mistaken if you thought I would fall for such an obvious trick, student Carl.”
It was when Sedzen made an expression that said he had no idea.
“professor! Are you buying us popcorn?”
“and! looks delicious!”
Students in Class 1 cheered.
Sedzen’s ears perk up at that reaction.
“As expected, the professor has leadership skills and knows how to raise the morale of the class!”
Currently, in class 1, everyone came out to cheer under the leadership of Sedgen.
The corners of Sedgen’s mouth twitched at the cheers of the students in charge.
“I can’t help it because the students want it. “Turn it around.”
“yep!”
“With caramel sprinkled on top.”
“thank you!”
After finishing the calculation, Carl smiled kindly and handed popcorn and drinks to the first class students.
Among them, a few students who had responded a little while ago were given a quick stab.
“ruler! everyone! Shout with elegance! Class 1, fighting!”
“Class 1, fighting!”
Anyway, the students in Class 1, who were in a heated mood, shouted loudly.
Meanwhile, Carl sighed as he looked at Chloe sitting alone in the corner looking at the black grimoire.
“Chloe.”
“… … .
“Hey, Chloe!”
“huh?”
Chloe raised her head.
Carl sighed, looking at his friend with a tired face.
“Take some rest. Then I’ll collapse. In times like this, you need to know how to enjoy it.”
“I don’t have time for that.”
Chloe said with a frown.
Karl scratched his head while looking at Chloe and handed her a fatigue recovery potion from his arms.
“I didn’t bring any money?”
“it’s okay. “I’m giving it to you because I’m worried about you as a friend.”
“here! “Popcorn and drinks!”
“yep! yep! going! Hey, take a break and do it! Understand?”
After Carl waved his hand, he quickly ran to the senior who had placed the order.
Chloe smiled slightly as she looked at the back and sipped the potion.
It was then.
“This is our first sparring. Class 1 Howl Naif, Class 5 Leo Plov. from now on!”
‘Leo.’
Chloe looked at Leo and clenched her fists.
‘I will never lose.’
