410.
First year first semester final exam, first round before the tournament.
The tournament was open to everyone, but there was still time until the world summit.
As such, outsiders have not yet come to Rumern.
“Do you want to ease the burden on the kids a little?”
Yura, the second-year Summoning Department professor, tilted his head and asked.
At that question, Ain, the second-year knight department professor, shook his head.
“It won’t make much of a difference to first graders.”
“but.”
Yura nodded as if she understood and looked around.
This is because I know that at events like this, there are some cool guys around.
“popcorn! Butter grilled squid! Roasted corn! beverage! “There is nothing missing!”
And as if living up to Yura’s expectations, a knife appeared.
Yura saw that and raised her hand.
“Here, here!”
“yep! yep! “I’m leaving now!”
Carl came running in a huff.
Then he looked at Yura and spoke to Ain.
“What do you need?”
“I didn’t call you.”
Ain answered with his characteristic cold face and then pointed at Yura with his chin.
“Give me the butter squid.”
“… … “It’s all sold out.”
“You say there’s nothing that isn’t there?”
Yura’s eyes widened, but she heard that everything was sold. What should she do?
“Then popcorn.”
“… … “It’s all sold out.”
“Are you kidding me?”
Yura’s face became grim.
Looking at Yura like that, Karl looked scared.
“B-but. “It’s all sold out.”
Yura snapped his fingers as he saw Karl struggling to answer.
Then the summoned beasts began to rummage through Carl’s luggage.
Delicious-smelling snacks poured out of Carl’s luggage.
“What on earth are these? “Are you making fun of me?”
As Yura’s face became grim, Kal looked tearful.
“I have nothing to sell to Teacher Yura.”
“Who is this kidding?!”
That was when Yura’s face changed into that of a yaksha.
“Hehe, that’s right. I don’t have anything to sell to senior Yura. Ah, what a wonderful sound this is. Well said. Cal student.”
Turp-plop-
Ren came down from the stands.
He was clad in a black wizard’s cloak and, out of place, he was holding a wine glass in his hand.
He gently shook the wine in the wine glass, took a sip, and looked satisfied.
“What kind of crap is that again?”
As Yura spoke with a wrinkled face, Ren threw the wine glass in his hand aside.
Cheonggrang.
Ren, who came over behind the sound of a wine glass breaking, snapped his fingers.
The sword items held by Yura’s summons were returned to the bag by Ren’s magic.
“There is no need to blame the sword student, Senior Yura. “The merchant club students, including Karl students, signed a contract with me.”
“What kind of bullshit is that?”
Yura said with a frown on her face, and Karl showed her a piece of paper from his arms.
It was a contract with a clause prohibiting the merchant club from selling goods to Yura during this tournament.
“Why are you doing this?”
“Hehe, this is to punish Senior Yura for daring to insist that Leo Plov is the Summoning Department.”
At this point, it was something that went beyond childishness and bordered on madness.
Yura, who was laughing out loud, gestured to Karl.
“Give me that contract.”
With those words, Karl handed over the contract.
“It’s not even a poison clause?”
Yura curled the corners of her mouth.
“What happens if I pay the penalty instead?”
“Then the contract becomes invalid?”
“Okay, then change the contents of the contract. “I can’t sell it to that bastard.”
“Of course.”
“Carl Thomas! Are you betraying the Department of Magic now?”
Carl said as Ren raised his voice.
“I’m sorry, merchants are driven by money.”

“credit! “Aren’t merchants supposed to chase after trust?”
“I don’t think my credit will be in trouble if I break this ridiculous contract.”
“good night! “Then, this time, strengthen the penalty clause and write the contract again!”
Ain, who was looking at the two juniors who were starting to bicker, stood up.
“Professor Ain, where are you going?”
“Go somewhere else. “I can’t sit with things like that.”
Ain spoke calmly and left.

Turp-plop-
As I followed the bright light and exited the long hallway, my vision became clear.
Rement was standing on the other side of the stadium, and the stands surrounding the stadium were full of people.
-Two students have just entered the stadium! We hope you welcome these two students with a big cheer!
Runba Tes, who always provides commentary during big events, spoke to brighten the mood.
The students cheered at those words.
As the students cheered enthusiastically, Luke went up to the stadium with a more nervous look on his face.
Standing there was Mel, a first-year magic professor in charge of judging.
Mel smiled softly at the two students and then spoke.
“I hope it will be a time with no regrets. Any attack is allowed, so fight to your heart’s content.”
Rement narrowed his eyes at those words.
“Any attack?”
“yes. Fatal attacks that take your life are also possible. Of course, if it is a truly dangerous attack, I will intervene.”
No matter how great they are, there is no way the faculty can stop a first-year student’s planned attack.
Especially when it comes to Mel.
In response to Mel’s answer, Rement smiled and nodded, and Luke also nodded with a nervous expression.
“Then, please go to your respective seats and wait. “It starts as soon as the signal is given.”
Mel is off the field.
Rement said before going to his seat.
“I commend you for not running away. Well, if I ran away, I wouldn’t have to face the student council president.”
“… … .”
Rement narrowed his eyes.
“I didn’t like it. People like you get private tutoring from someone like Professor Ren. Did you feel good about being treated specially as the student council president’s mentee?”
Those words reminded Luke of his class with Ren.
In fact, the person who taught Luke magic was none other than Ren’s assistant professor, Anna.
Ren is a heavenly wizard.
All he was interested in was Luke’s mana characteristics.
Other than that, as a wizard, Luke was average.
Since he hadn’t even developed the basics of magic yet, it was all the more out of the question for Ren.
Other than researching Luke’s magical properties, there was only one time he showed any interest.
‘Associate Professor Anna.’
‘Yes, Professor Ren.’
‘What do you think about dissecting student Luke?’
‘Please shut up.’
Ren claimed it was a joke, but his eyes were infinitely serious.
Luke said, trembling as he recalled that time.
“It wasn’t that good.”
“Hmph, this guy doesn’t even know how great the glory he has enjoyed.”
Rement snorted and returned to his seat.
Luke returned to his seat and took a deep breath.
‘How effective is what I’ve done so far?’
I remembered the past time.
After class, I always did physical training.
It was literally a hell of a day.
The only thing Leo taught Luke was physical training and combat training.
There were countless times when I questioned myself for not making any progress.
I always felt my own limitations.
Every time that happened, Leo said:
‘Reaching a limit means encountering your own limits. Continuing to do that means continuing to push boundaries. ‘Luke Elda believes in himself to constantly overcome his limits.’
Luke turned around and was smiling.
‘It’s a challenge to see how much I can do.’
“Smile?”
Rement wrinkled his face.
Mel looked at Luke and muttered to himself.
‘Sometimes there are people like that. ‘A person who smiles in times of crisis.’
With that thought in mind, Mel snapped the fingers in her hand.
Ting-! Whirring!
The coin started spinning.
The coin flew around and soon fell in the middle of the stadium.
Ting-!
As soon as it fell to the floor, Rement hit the floor with his palm.
“Earth Wave.”
The magic was completed in an instant with high-speed chanting.
Kugugugugugung-!
The stadium started to shake.
The stadium shook like water, but this did not mean that the solid ground had become soft.
The moment I was swept up in this turbulence, it was like crashing into the floor.
Luke raised his aura.
A silver aura formed on my toes.
Woe!
Luke quickly charged at Rement.
“Stupid guy. Do you think you can close the distance?”
Rement sneered.
Luke’s eyes followed the trembling of the ground.
And I figured out the pattern in an instant and stepped on the edge of the ground that was soaring high and kicked it.
Rement’s eyes twitched.
Luke quickly closed the distance between himself and Rement, stepping forward in search of a safe zone.
The moment when you close the distance with Rement. Luke saw the corners of Rement’s mouth rise.
Kwaang-!
“Ugh!”
A fist rose from the ground and struck Luke.
Luke, who managed to pull up the auror and block the attack, was thrown out.
“It’s pretty good. But you don’t think I’ll just let them close the distance, do you?”
Magical energy stirred around Rement.
“I want to play with it as much as I can, but the crowd won’t enjoy it.”
Rement curled the corner of his mouth.
“I’ll finish it here.”
Ugh-!
As if reacting to Rement’s magic, the surrounding ground began to shake.
Kwaang-!
Rock awls began rising from the ground around Rement at incredible speed.
An attack that tears the opponent to pieces indiscriminately.
Quagga-ga-ga-ga-ga-!
In an instant, awls rose from the floor and filled the stadium.
A thick cloud of dust rose up.
The place to avoid is the sky.
But even if I jumped, there was nowhere to escape.
Anticipating that, Rement had already taken control of the sky above the stadium with wind-type magic.
‘If I had jumped to avoid it, my body would have been cut to pieces by the wind’s blade.’
“As expected, it’s boring.”
The moment Rement snorted and was about to leave the stadium.
Whoosh!
A sharp sound of cutting through the wind was heard.
“What?”
Luke came out of the awl and was swinging his sword at Rement.
Rement barely managed to avoid the attack by rolling on the floor.
Sigh-!
Blood welled up on the back of Rement’s neck.
widely-!
Luke landed on the floor.
If it had been a little deeper, the match would have ended in Luke’s victory.
“You bastard! “What kind of trick have you pulled?”
“I avoided it.”
Luke said, wiping Rement’s blood off the tip of his sword.
“Do not be ridiculous. “You avoided that attack?”
Tendons rose on Rement’s forehead due to extreme anger.
At that time, boos poured in from the first-year audience.
“Are you allowing an attack on a failing student like that?”
“Rement, you’re okay too?”
Rement’s eyes rolled back at the sound of giggling.
“You have nice eyes. “I can’t believe you saw that and thought of avoiding it.”
Chelsea muttered from the second grade bleachers.
“The reason I became Leo’s mentee in the first place was because I have good eyes.”
Celia crossed her arms.
“Of course, the reason the attack was successful was because the opponent was careless. “As long as that attack fails, it’s over.”
Chelsea clenched her chin at those words.
“Shouldn’t we show our real skills now?”
“I’ll finish it! Damn failing student!”
Kugugugugugung-!
The floor began to shake.
Quagga-ga-ga-ga-gang-!
The floor hit Luke like slime.
Wow!
“Gagging?”
The floor, which spread out like a palm, hit Luke.
Luke was hit and bounced away.
bang-!
“Wha?!”
A fist made of the floor hit Luke’s back.
Luke, who had been hit by a physical attack coming out of the floor, fell to the floor.
My whole body screamed.
When the attack stopped, Luke stood up.
“It doesn’t work either.”
“Ha, did you think you would win?”
Rement growled as if it was nothing and kicked the floor.
bang-!
“Huh?”
The floor rose and sent Luke flying into the sky.
I lost consciousness from shock.
Whioooooooooooooo!
Rising to an unimaginable height, Luke looked at the bracelet hanging on his hand.
‘As expected, this is the limit in this state.’
I looked at the stadium below.
‘The method of breaking the seal is simple. Just say it with the utmost sincerity in your heart and it will be released.’
Breaking the seal was easy.
But I endured it.
Throughout the first semester, I was looked down on and ignored as a failing student, but I persevered.
For this moment!
‘clear.’
The moment I thought that.
Ting-!
The bracelets and anklets that were restraining Luke were released and flew away.
That moment.
‘My body is light.’
Luke looked at his palm with a surprised expression.
‘If this is it.’
Luke unleashed all the mana in his body.
Ugh-!
For an instant, an aura hovered over my toes.
Luke kicked the air using his Auror step.
***
“It will end when you hit the ground.”
“Ah, I thought a giant killing would happen.”
“hey! “You’d rather curse at Rement.”
“Oh, was that too much?”
It was a time when first graders were giggling and laughing.
Flash! bang-!
A silver flash flashed in the sky and struck the stadium.
“W-what is it?”
“I just saw something in the sky… … .”
The first graders were embarrassed by the thick dust.
“This… … what… … .”
A moment when Rement was also taken aback.
Flash!
At the same time as a silver flash, something flew out.
Wow!
“Gagging?”
Rement was kicked in the stomach and rolled miserably on the floor.
widely-!
Luke, who landed on the floor, said with a silver flash covering his entire body.
“Start now.”
Luke spoke powerfully to Rement.
“It’s real.”
