-hello! everyone! It’s here again this year! The biggest event of the first semester of first year! Welcome to Summoner Race! I, the commentator, am Runba Tess, a third-year student in the Summoning Department!
Wow!
The students who filled the summoning practice room cheered.
Celia made a shocked expression.
“Is this a test?”
There was an audience during the chivalry sparring exam, but the scale of the summons practical exam was different.
Not only was there commentary, but even the audience seats were well-equipped.
There was even video magic installed in a place that could be easily seen from the audience.
Reese, who was sitting next to Celia, burst into laughter.
“Summon beast races are popular because they are a tradition of summoning tests. Moreover, there is a lot of interest because it is a sport that is also used in exchange matches with other hero academies.”
“Student President! It came from the newspaper department! “The first-year student next to you is your younger sister, Celia Gerdinger, right?”
A male student wearing a magic device that records video around his neck approached me holding a notebook and pen.
“that’s right.”
“Ohh! “I’d like to interview you two, is it okay?”
This was a request from a student in the journalism club.
“We have popcorn! “We have cold drinks!”
“ruler! pick! pick! Who will take first place! “This is the dividend now!”
In addition, students from the merchant club were arranging not only business but also gambling.
‘What kind of test is this!’
The first-year students screamed inwardly at the Dotegi Market atmosphere, which was completely different from the solemn exam atmosphere up to this point.
Meanwhile, the first-year Summoning Department students were suffering the most psychological damage during this time.
“no! “Why are they so crowded and talking so loudly that I can’t concentrate!”
As Tade shouted while holding his head, the first years around him showed their agreement.
The first graders, who were extremely nervous, didn’t know what to do when the entire school came and created a fun atmosphere.
Rather, I felt even more pressure because of this atmosphere.
Of course, there were some relaxed people.
The representative examples were Eliza and Wareden, the aces of the Summoning Department.
“It’s unpleasant that you treat me, the daughter of the Hergin family, as nothing more than a spectacle.”
Her followers nodded as they looked at Eliza, who frowned.
In Wereden’s case, he just stood there with an expressionless face as always.
Eliza glanced at Warrenden and saw Leo warming up on one side.
Eliza mockingly asked Leo, who was stretching by bending and straightening his knees.
“You showed outstanding skills in the Knight Science practical test. Did you prepare well for the Summoning practical test?”
“of course.”
“As expected, the grade representative is full of confidence.”
Eliza slowly opened her eyes.
“But when I was practicing for the Summoning Practical Test, I didn’t even see a snout… … “I guess you think the practical test is funny?”
In the Hwansu race, you would normally compete on the Hwansoo you signed a contract with.
However, there are many first-year students who have not yet signed a flight redemption contract.
So Lumern provided a flight refund.
The key to this test was how quickly to time the flight return.
However, the Summoning Department provided training time during the exam period, but Leoman had never participated in the practice.
“Hey, Eliza. “What are you saying?”
Taide was impressed by her serious words.
However, the views of those around Leo were not kind.
“Honestly, it’s true that that guy is half-hearted.”
“You may be famous in chivalry and magic, but in summoning, you only have spiritual power. “I haven’t seen any contracts with spirits or phantom beasts.”
“Aren’t you looking down on summoning?”
“If you’re just thinking about doing it roughly, you can skip it, right?”
As the number of students in Summonhak is small, the attachment to the department is strong.
In such a situation, Leo, who had never shown up for test practice, showed his confidence, so he couldn’t help but show his disapproval.
It is a race where you must use all your summoning skills to quickly pass obstacles and cross the finish line.
The obstacles are all formidable, and interference between players is allowed.
It was common for people to get seriously injured during races.
Since he had never come to practice before such a dangerous race, Leo did not look good in the eyes of the summoning students.
Leo had experienced everything from phantom beasts to mountain warfare and aerial combat in his past life, but of course no student knew about it.
“That’s harsh.”
“under! “Are you siding with me just because you’re the class president?”
When a class 5 student got angry, a student from another class laughed.
“The atmosphere is not good.”
Chen Xia intervened.
“I understand that everyone is nervous because it is before the exam. Still, the slander… … .”
“Chen Xia. “You also have good grades in knight science, so you don’t have to worry too much about summoning, right?”
One female student sarcastically said.
When she became a target, Class 10 was furious.
The Summoning Department students glared at each other and gave off an unpleasant atmosphere.
Leo clicked his tongue when he saw that.

“It’s noisy.”
A low, heavy voice rang out.
Everyone’s eyes were focused to one side.
Wareden, who had crossed his arms and closed his eyes as if he was not interested, suddenly opened his tawny eyes.
“If you’re going to split sides and fight just because you’ve had more experience with Hwansu, then do it somewhere else, not in front of me.”
“what? “What did you say just now, Wareden!”
“He said it was annoying to hear people talk about it as if it was a big deal to get more phantom water.”
Sen Liu, a male student from the eastern part of the continent of the Summoning Department, as the representative of the Summoning Department, looked annoyed as he looked at Wareden speaking with an expressionless face.
“under? It looks like you’re being stabbed, right? “You barely showed up during taming training, right?”
Warrenden chuckled as he saw the male student from the Summoning Department curling up the corner of his mouth.
“what? “What about that laugh?”
“Do you want me to tell you why I didn’t go out during taming training?”
“what?”
“Because it wasn’t worth the training. “I’m not some idiot like you who can’t even handle a griffon properly.”
At those words, sparks flew from the eyes of other students, including Liu.
“You bastard!”
The male student punched Wareden.
Tup-!
However, just before Wareden closed in, Liu’s fist was caught by Leo’s hand.
“If you fight before the exam, you won’t end up getting scolded.”
“Tsk! “I don’t want to hear that kind of thing from you!”
Liu shook off Leo’s hand and went to where the Summoning Department students were.
Looking at the back, I thought, ‘Eh.’ Leo sighed and looked at Warrenden.
“Why don’t you be more selective about what you say?”
“Is telling the truth the problem?”
“I don’t know how great you are, but I don’t think you have the right to laugh at other people’s efforts. Warre or Taiden.”
Wareden looked up at Waredden, who was one head taller than him, and smiled coldly at Leo as he spoke, and then walked away in the other direction.
“The atmosphere is worse than I thought.”
I just listened intently to the Summoning class, but the students in the department didn’t get along as well as I thought.
Tade sighed at Leo’s words.
“You probably didn’t know because you studied other majors, but things are not going well in our Horseman Summoning Department right now.”
“why?”
“You, Sia, Warrenden, and Eliza are the top ranked players in our Horseman Summoning Department, right?”
“yes.”
“Summoning is a department where the abilities of majors and minors are significantly different, but since you and Chen Xia were ranked high, the second year seniors in the Summoning Department gathered us together.”
“That’s what we gathered together? “You’re such an old guy.”
“I know yeah! In the meantime, Wareden was even trying to get his seniors to gather together?”
It is said that thanks to this, the second graders became even angrier and started tearing up the first graders.
“Anyway, I’m already upset about that… … “While preparing for this exam, you and Warrenden hardly even participated in training, so the atmosphere got worse.”
“It must be a bad mood.”
“that’s right. So please understand.”
“okay.”
After saying that, Leo looked around at the students preparing for the match.
While everyone was showing signs of tension, I felt a strange sense of hostility.
‘This kind of problem also arises.’
It certainly could have been seen as neglectful in the eyes of others.
‘Of course, I don’t plan on doing anything roughly.’
As long as I was competing, my goal was to be first place.
***
-ladies and gentlemen! The time has finally arrived! All athletes are at the starting line!
First-year students stood side by side inside the starting line.
I saw a fence with griffons in front of me.
As soon as it started, the students started off by taming the griffon on the fence.
The Summoning Department students prepared to leave with nervous faces.
“You kids! Don’t be nervous and just do what you practiced! “If there’s a guy who’s nervous and can’t show off his skills, I’ll kick his butt after the end!”
Yura, the referee, raised the signal and shouted to his students.
At those words, laughter erupted among the Summoning students.
Thanks to Yura, my tension eased.
“Okay then!”
Yura raised the signal flare.
“Three, two, one!”
bang-!
Kwakagagak-!
As soon as it started, elemental magic poured out around Leo and Wareden.
Leo stopped in an unexpected situation.
-ah! What’s going on! Summoning Department students! As if to show unity in advance, we are putting a check on Leo, the representative of our grade, and Wareden, the South’s senior!
The audience roared at the unprecedented situation.
Class 5’s Summoning Department students also looked embarrassed.
“evil! “What is that!”
“behave shamefully! “Summoning department and bastards!”
“hey! “You guys don’t even know how to be embarrassed!”
“Compete fairly!”
-haha! There is a lot of booing from the 5th grade class!
The students watching from the stands were in an uproar.
“Bah, class president!”
“hey! Leo! wait! “I’ll help you now!”
“Don’t worry about me, go quickly!”
When his classmates did not set out to remove the elemental magic that was interfering with Leo, Leo shouted urgently.
“This is a test! I’ll take care of it, so don’t lag behind! “Go!”
“Ugh!”
“Leo! sorry!”
The class 5 students left late with angry expressions on their faces.
The water-turned mud caught Leo’s feet.
Fire and wind blocked Leo’s path.
Warrenden, who was subject to the same checks as Leo, unleashed his spiritual power.
“It’s the same.”
Woe!
It was an elemental art that was deliberately written by the students of the Department of Summoning, but Wareden simply dismantled it.
This would have been impossible without overwhelming capabilities.
“It looks difficult. “Do you want me to help you?”
When Warrenden asked, curling the corner of his mouth, Leo chuckled.
“No, I’ll take care of it.”
“is it? “Then let’s go first.”
Warrenden walked towards the griffon fence at a leisurely pace.
Meanwhile, other students had finished taming the Gryphon and were flying away.
Leo, who was watching this from the starting line, unleashed his spiritual power.
“I thought they were hated, but I didn’t know they would be disturbed by a group like this.”
Yura, who was watching Leo laughing, clicked his tongue.
‘That must be difficult.’
If this wasn’t a test, this level of checks could be overcome.
However, in this match, there is a restriction that only ‘summoning techniques’ must be used.
Moreover, according to what Yura observed, Leo’s main summoning technique was summoning phantom beasts, not elemental magic.
In the meantime, elementalism was checked at the department level.
It seemed difficult for Leo, who was still considered inexperienced in actual combat, to solve this challenge.
‘The emotions of first-year students are deeper than I thought. No matter what, they are lynching a group like this.’
It’s not a foul, but it doesn’t look good.
As a professor, I was paying attention to my students, but it seems that it wasn’t enough.
It was a time when Yura was blaming herself and thinking that she should comfort the students.
“─!”
At the sound of Leo’s voice, Yura felt the hairs on her entire body stand up.
The language of soft melodies, as if singing a song, was not a human language.
“──! ─!”
As the melody continued, the spirit’s power weakened.
Woe!
Eventually, the force that was hindering Leo disappeared.
The spirits that were following the contractor’s orders laughed and danced around Leo, then disappeared.
The power to influence spirits that have made contracts with others.
‘Is that crazy guy using spirit language just now? At least you learn it in a 2nd year elemental arts class?’
Yura couldn’t help but burst into laughter as she saw Leo starting late.
‘It’s a real thing, a thing! ‘Leo must definitely learn summoning!’
