“You’re lucky, it’s your first time.”
Leo smiled and stepped forward.
The content of the practical exam for Gisahak was simple.
That is, winning 5 times through sparring.
The moment I got 5 wins, I passed the test.
Of course, since detailed scores were scored based on the sparring opponent and content of the sparring, victory or defeat was not an absolute score requirement.
But anyway, it was important to win and pass the test quickly.
Naturally, Leo’s goal was to go undefeated.
“You’re lucky because you’re the first? “It seems like you don’t even care about me!”
Howl, Leo’s first opponent, said with a smile.
Howl Sneff.
He comes from a famous family of heroes from the Kingdom of Tull in the southern region of the continent.
Although his reputation was lower than that of Gerdinger, he still had the title of famous hero.
In particular, he used the Snape Spear, a versatile spear technique.
In fact, among class 1 knight studies students, he was evaluated as the third most capable after Celia and Duran.
Howl clicked his tongue and took out a spear from his subspace bracelet.
It was a long spear that was 1.5 times longer than a typical spear.
Leo also saw this and pulled out his sword from his waist.
“As mentioned before, the one who renders the opponent incapable of combat wins. “Go into sparring thinking of it as a real battle.”
After giving a brief explanation, Ain took a step back.
There was no such thing as an over-the-counter ruling.
Literally, the entire parade ground was a sparring area.
As they faced each other, Howl clicked his tongue.
“I’m looking forward to it. “I’ve been thinking about paying you back since I lost to you in class 5 in combat science class at the beginning of the semester.”
“Have you still had that in mind?”
When Leo asked with a grin, Howl laughed coldly.
“A person from the Naif family does not forget humiliation.”
“Did you hate cleaning the bathroom that much?!”
“Ugh! “Do you know how much the other classmates made fun of me!”
Howl clenched his fists.
“I will pay for the humiliation of that time! Leo Plov!”
Sigh-!
Howl adjusted his grip on the spear and lowered his posture.
It was a ready posture reminiscent of a snake’s attack posture.
Looking at Howl, Leo lowered his sword.
“Leo. “I also know what a great performance you did during the entrance exam.”
Howl curled the corners of his mouth.
“But you are definitely behind other students from the starting line! I heard that you couldn’t awaken your auror during the entrance exam! “Can you really stop this attack?”
Wow! Whoosh!
The tip of Howl’s spear aimed at Leo’s chest.
Amazing speed!
Usually the thrust of a spear is straight.
Therefore, no matter how fast it is, it is easy to avoid it if you just predict it.
‘But that’s where the Snape Spear begins!’
The tip of the Neif family’s spear moves like a living snake.
Therefore, if you carelessly avoid it, it is easy to end up in trouble.
‘The moment you avoid it, you’re backed into a corner!’
It was normal for most students to lose to Howl without being able to do anything the moment they gave up their first sum.
However, Leo was a student who was quite out of bounds.
Tup-!
“… … !”
Howl opened his eyes wide.
Leo grabbed the spear just before it reached him.
“You said you heard about me from other kids, but didn’t you hear about me from Celia, who is in your class?”
Leo smiled coldly.
Woe!
“omg?”
Leo lifted Howl up by the spear in a straight line toward the sky.
Howl, who was preparing for the Auror, widened his eyes when he saw Leo lifting him with pure strength.
“You’re so strong!”
Woe! bang-!
Leo slammed Howl to the floor.
Of course, the damage was minimized by using the Auror Armor just before hitting the floor.
Howl took his stance and laughed.
“Of course I heard it. “I was just a little surprised that it was stronger than I expected.”
Ugh-!
The window glowed green.

“But just because you’re strong doesn’t mean your fundamental weakness is solved!”
Howl’s green eyes flashed.
Leo quickly removed his hand from the window.
Chiik-!
A small smoke rose from the ground where Howl stepped.
‘Poison Auror? It’s a special trait.’
Leo made an amused expression.
It was an Auror characteristic that was overwhelmingly advantageous in long-term warfare.
I could understand why he was so confident.
‘But we still have a long way to go.’
“You talk about my weaknesses.”
Leo chuckled.
“Aren’t weaknesses meant to be overcome?”
Hwareuk-!
The flame aura from Leo’s body pushed away Howl’s poison aura.
Howl laughed when he saw that.
‘Definitely, Aurors with flame characteristics are a weakness for me! But if you’re not like Celia, you can easily reverse the compatibility!’
Woe!
A more powerful poison spewed out from Howl’s body.
Leo also increased his firepower accordingly.
‘It’s no use! Unless it’s Celia!’
Hahahaha!
Grumble!
As if in competition, the firepower of the flames grew stronger as the poison grew stronger.
As time passed, Howl’s face became increasingly hard.
‘Celia… … It’s not that much… … la… … noodle?’
Howl’s face suddenly turned white, and his eyes landed on Leo’s red eyes.
‘Nonsense! ‘Celia’s level of firepower?!’
The story of how Leo stood out was at the beginning of the semester.
Moreover, he has never properly demonstrated his skills in sparring, which evaluates comprehensive combat power.
Therefore, most of the first-year students predicted that Howl would win in this test duel, where the overall skills of the first-year students improved rapidly.
However, as if to ridicule such expectations, Leo pressured Howl with a powerful flame aura.
Celia, who was watching the situation from outside with her arms crossed, looked surprised.
‘When did that happen?’
Celia was one of the few people who predicted Leo’s victory.
However, I did not expect that Leo would have increased the firepower of the Flame Auror to this level.
Duran, who was looking at that scene, chuckled.
“Looks like Howl isn’t enough.”
“Aren’t you assuming that Howl hasn’t lost yet?”
When the knight department student of Class 1 scolded Duran, he laughed.
“Are your eyes decoration? Although he was already at a disadvantage in terms of matchmaking, he was completely defeated in the battle of power. Do you think Howl has potential?”
“Even so, Howl still has the Snake Spear. “Auror compatibility is not a factor that determines victory or defeat.”
“joy! Do you think Howl can overpower Leo Plov with his skills?”
“You’re number 4 in our class.”
“It doesn’t matter if Howl is the fourth strongest in our class.”
Sparks flew from Duran’s body.
“I am the one who will defeat him.”
“you? “I don’t think that will work?”
Celia, who was next to him, sneered.
“Are you taking sides just because you fit in normally? Celia Gerdinger.”
“I’m not taking sides. I’m the one who beat Leo. “You’re no good to me either, right?”
“You’re talking nonsense. “I’ll teach you who has the upper hand right now.”
“good. “I’ll beat you to death.”
Puzzle!
Grumble!
Duran, who tried to beat anyone above him, and Celia, who had strong pride in being the best, had an extremely bad relationship.
“Hey hey hey! What if we fight among ourselves? Should we support Howl?! huh? Hey! “I told you not to cause an aura!”
The Class 1 student was horrified and tried to stop them, but they showed no signs of calming down.
“Two people. “If we fight now, it won’t just end in a letter of reflection, right?”
At that time, Chen Xia smiled and stopped the two people.
Duran snorted at those words and walked in the other direction, and Celia elegantly pushed back her hair.
“Class 1 is full of fighting spirit.”
“It’s not really a fighting spirit or anything. “I just want to put that unlucky bastard’s face to shame.”
“Isn’t that the fighting spirit?”
Professor Sedzen prohibited duels between students in the same class, so Celia and Duran had no chance to decide the winner.
“That’s right, Sia. “You want to fight Leo too, but you say it so well.”
“I definitely want to fight Master Leo. But I’m not only targeting Leo.”
“then?”
“I want to fight with Miss Celia, and I also want to fight with Duran. And the goal is to defeat three people.”
“In the end, you have the strongest fighting spirit.”
Celia sighed as she looked at Chen Xia, whose black eyes were sparkling.
The students around him, who had been watching the nervous battle between the top students in the Department of Engineers with tense faces, sighed in relief when they saw that nothing had happened.
“Leo is very popular.”
As Nella spoke in her characteristic languid voice, Illyana next to her shook her head.
“I would decline if I were that popular.”
***
“Ha!”
Howl urgently took the auror step in response to the flame aura wielded by Leo.
I had to distance myself somehow.
However, Leo did not allow Howl to increase the distance.
‘We must stop it!’
He swung a spear filled with poison aura at Leo, who was approaching him.
Grumble-!
However, Leo’s auror burned away all of Howl’s poison.
Not only was it inferior to its rivals, but it was also inferior in power.
He was clearly outnumbered.
“Tsk!”
The embarrassment that came from a complete misjudgment of the other person pressured Howl.
However, he soon came to his senses and lowered his posture.
‘It’s unexpected, but we can’t just let it happen!’
Howl’s eyes became like snakes stalking their prey.
‘We’ve already prepared a plan!’
Howl, who was considered a genius from a young age, did not rank at the top of his class during the entrance exam.
However, although I felt regret, I did not feel resentment.
‘Wareden or Tyden! Because there was that monster!’
There was no one from the southern region who did not know about Warrenden.
That thrilling power was enough to be called a monster rather than a genius.
However, he thought he was the best among the knight departments.
In fact, he was one of the best among this year’s first-year engineering students.
But it was impossible to discuss who was the strongest.
‘Celia Gerdinger! Chen Xia! Duran Moriah!’
Three people who are said to be the best among the same jockeys.
I could tell from the moment I first saw the three that they were one step above me.
It was a huge shock to Howl, who had always been the best when it came to martial arts.
In Celia’s case in particular, it was a despairing level.
This is because his skills were not enough and he was overwhelmed by his compatibility.
‘I was able to come up with a strategy against Chen Xiana Duran! But I only felt helpless against Celia!’
At the beginning of the semester, it was a wall I could never overcome.
However, after months of hard work, measures were taken to deal with Celia.
‘I tried to hide it in preparation for the sparring with Celia! Rather, it worked out well!’
Howl’s eyes sparkled.
‘This is a good opponent to test new technology on! And Leo Plov! I can’t lose to you!’
Whirring!
The window was splendidly turned.
‘At least for you who are close to Celia!
I have already erased from my mind the thought that my opponent is weaker than me.
He looked at the person he was targeting as being on the same level.
‘I thought he was just a gloomy guy, but he has pretty good eyes, right?’
He was carefully and surely gathering his strength to defeat himself.
‘It looks like you put in a lot of effort to overcome this disadvantage, right?’
Howl’s eyes were clearly looking at himself, but he was also looking at something else behind him.
‘Is it Celia?’
Leo, who figured it out easily, grinned.
The boy in front of me was burning with the spirit of challenge.
‘That challenge. I’ll accept it.’
