Episode 1011
As always, as usual Jane, the school opening ceremony started right away without even saying a simple hello.
Minions rushed to the podium and placed a portable blackboard behind Jane. Jane gently smoothed out the wrinkles in the suit she was wearing and came forward.
“Keygen’s highest year of study will be on a different level from the two years you experienced.”
Her clear voice echoed throughout the auditorium.
“A lot of things will change. First of all, you who have come here are Keygen’s immediate power. Rather than
being a student, you will be treated as a commander and an elite necromancer. “I’m sure you’ve all felt that the
way people look at you on campus is different from the way they look at you outside of school.”
The students nodded their heads calmly.
While I was a student who received help from adults on campus, when I went outside, the views of the residents were different. I look up to, admire, and look forward to Keygen Mark. In difficult situations, I have had many
experiences where residents cheered that Kizen had finally arrived.
Jane was talking about behaving according to that level.
“All powers you can exercise over the Dark Alliance will be strengthened. Even the most important wartime military rights, such as wartime order rights, executive order rights, confidential investigation rights, support request rights, and bombing orders. Each and every one of you represents ‘Keygen’. Of course, the more authority you have, the greater your obligations will be.”
Again and again.
Every time Jane walked away, the students looked at her with nervous faces.
“I admit it. Those of you who are in the highest grades of Keygen have become somewhat accomplished necromancers. However, as a Keygen graduate, I am still lacking a lot to lead the times. The current number of third year students is 280. and.”
She walked in front of the blackboard, took a piece of chalk, and drew the number ‘100’.
“The number of Keygen graduates is less than 100.”
The main auditorium was filled with extreme silence.
It started with 1,000 new students and eventually reached the number of 100.
Students outside the Top 100 felt as if a knife had been placed in front of their throats.
“There are 100 graduates. This is also an optimistic number. Again, the highest year of Kizen course is on a different level, and you must grow in all areas, from civil affairs to practical work. From now on, let’s take a closer
look at the changes made in the second year of study.”
When Jane gestured, an assistant quickly ran over and handed out the documents. Jane said, holding the documents in her hand.
“First, midterm and final exams will be abolished.”
It’s a big issue from the beginning. The students responded immediately and murmured.
“The written test will be replaced with ‘DMAT.’ “Of all the exams that evaluate existing necromancers, it boasts the most difficult level of difficulty and is at the highest level.”
Cough! Cough!
Meilin, startled by those words, could be heard coughing next to her. Camivarez looked at her.
“What’s wrong, Meirin?”
“DMAT?”
Meilin wiped her mouth and made a stern expression.
“… … Even in the entire ivory tower, there won’t be less than a hundred people who pass the exam, right?”
It is a test that few people pass, even in ivory towers where people devote their entire lives to research.
It is a test of extreme difficulty that even requires the use of the ‘Breen’ language rather than a common continental language. He declared that he would make students do that.
“DMAT is taken once in the first semester and once in the second semester. The standard is, of course, passing.
Students who fail will be subject to expulsion procedures.”
At that time, a group of students raised their hands.
“Hey, it’s Scott Snyder! I have a question!”
“Go ahead, Scott.”
“Isn’t the DMAT a test related to the research and development of black magic that is far from practical? I am
carefully considering whether this may be against the spirit of Keygen… … .”
“who-“
Jane smiled.
“Did you teach that practicality is the spirit of Keygen?”
There was a dead silence.
Scott trembled his shoulders and closed his mouth. He was in third grade and his head had grown, and even with Jane, whom he had been seeing for the past two years, he still couldn’t move. It wasn’t for nothing that even graduates who went out into society bent over her when they saw Jane.
“The second year of Kizen course has become ingrained in your mind. Kizen wants to produce talented individuals who take her teachings and make them their own. Also, the story that DMAT is a research and development
test is nothing more than a misconception created because of its high level.”
She looked around at other students besides Scott.
“Easy to learn is easy to follow. So, easy techniques are practical. “That’s a really shallow idea, Scott.”
“S-sorry. professor.”
It was Scott who stepped forward for no reason but ended up leaving without even making a profit. Next to me, I see Cindy Vivace clicking her tongue.
“Next, graduation thesis.”
Finally, this is the story of the infamous graduation question that I heard from seniors.
Immediately the tension rose, and Jane spoke calmly.
“There is no need to explain this further. Please complete it within one semester. “The third-year course is not
easy, so I have to spend more time on my graduation thesis.”
Shock erupted from everywhere.
Keygen’s graduation thesis, which all students thought was the final boss, was downgraded to a level that had to be just finished and passed over in the first semester.
In addition, there were many other changes. There was something somewhat welcome about it; as the overall number of students in each grade was reduced, third-year students finally no longer had to fight to register for courses. I was able to choose the class I wanted and the professor I wanted and take the class at the right time.
Additionally, major subjects are integrated into one class. Subjects such as Summoning Materials and Funeral
Studies are all integrated under the name of ‘major classes.’
In the case of the DMAT, the main exam, you must pass two general subjects in addition to your major subject to graduate from Keygen. Listening to what Simon’s classmates were whispering about, it seemed like most of the students were planning to choose Dark Mechanics and Dark Mechanics in addition to their major. Fortunately, the cutoff points for general subjects are lower than those for major subjects.
Another change is that liberal arts subjects are also disappearing. Instead, I was able to take general subjects like liberal arts.
Overall, the class itself became more spacious compared to the second year course. Of course, the reason this happened was because it was going to become more difficult in other areas.
“The following is probably the story you heard most often in your senior years.”
She continued speaking while tapping on the blackboard.

“Let’s talk about the ‘mission’ of the highest grade.”
* * *
Regarding the course in his third year, the thing Simon heard most from his seniors was the ‘mission’ aspect.
-There is no time to sleep. Camping is a daily routine.
-It was easier when I just stuck to school.
-We stayed together like best friends for two years, but there were a lot of people we didn’t see in person for the last year.
The external activities experienced so far in the first and second year courses were in the form of temporarily suspending on-campus classes for a certain period of time, and students completing their duties and then returning to school to take classes.
However, the third year course is different. Classes and missions progress together, and missions are more important than classes.
And since it is no longer an ‘evaluation’ as a school class, the item called ‘evaluation’ like the mission evaluation is removed.
mission. dispatch. participated in the war. Tracking. assassination.
There is no day or night. There are many times when eating or physiological problems cannot be resolved. I often had to wake up while sleeping, go down to Rochester to take a breather, or get up in the middle of class and run to the teleportation magic circle.
Truly a military activity.
Many students complained about the difficulty of the third-grade curriculum in that they had to combine military activities and school life.
“The types of missions are numerous and involve direct involvement in what is actually happening on the territory of the continent. From the most basic individual missions, group missions with external active necromancers, garrison missions where you become ‘in charge’ of the area and resolve all matters in that area, dungeon missions where you participate in dungeons, and competition between departments or teams is the focus. Competitive missions, assassination and security missions that kill or protect the target. “Even a sabotage mission that moves to interfere with another group’s mission itself.”
She looked back at the students.
“You will have an impact beyond your school and across the continent. The school supports you with direct military and administrative power. Based on this, you must create your own achievements and career for one yea
r.”
There was a silence that made you feel like you could hear a pin drop everywhere.
“Of course, your mission areas may overlap, or conflicts may arise due to interests between missions. You may be classmates at school, but outside of school you may be competitors. It would be best to resolve the issue through dialogue, but if this is not possible, a duel is also permitted as long as it does not cause harm to either party.”
Exclamations erupted from everywhere. The moment I left school, I was able to enjoy an incredible amount of
freedom.
“It’s not a joke, just like I heard.”
Dick flirted, then lowered his voice to Simon.
“There are people who grit their teeth and endure until the third year of Kizen after seeing just this. “Kids with
a terrible grudge.”
“resentment?”
“okay. Now in their third year, there are people who have used Kizen’s power for a year to eliminate their family’s main enemy, or to make a ‘justice’ and wage a territorial war on another territory.”
Simon turned his head with a puzzled face.
“Is something like that possible?”
“It’s not uncommon.”
Dick closed his eyes.
“I heard that there are many cases where they destroy each other’s family’s business, and later meet at school and grab each other’s necks. Of course, it is our student council’s job to coordinate and stop such things. “I’m going to be really busy from now on.”
The power of the 3rd grade Kizen is to eliminate threats from the continent, but depending on how it is wielded, it can become a vicious weapon.
According to Dick’s story, things were much worse a few years ago. A keygen student can be blocked by the same keygen student. It is said that in order to stop the attack of a guild that hired third-year Keygen students for
money, another competing guild hired three third-year Keygen students to fight back.
‘… … I think I understand why all third-year students were so obsessed with the position of student council president.’
The key was not the power within the school, but the power exercised within the Dark Alliance.
Although such fights over interests may be relatively rare now that we are facing a crisis, I thought it was something we should be aware of as a student council.
“Then next time.”
Jane received new documents.
“Following the existing capacity of 280 students, a new student has joined the third grade.”
“?!”
The students murmured.
“Hey, can I do this? “Are outsiders coming in?”
“Kizen 3rd year students can’t transfer, so what happened?”
Jane stepped aside, and a man walked in.
Short in stature, with a slight physique, and trembling fingertips. However, unlike the clean-cut youthful face and appearance that does not seem confident, the pitch blackness and intimidation emanating from the atmosphere.
The surprised students stood up one by one. It was the same with Simon.
“The 328th class of students, Azel Bringer, has returned to Keygen.”
As soon as Jane finished speaking, gasps erupted from all directions.
Azel shrugged his shoulders as if he were embarrassed and smiled and waved to his juniors. When he saw Simon, his eyes lit up and he said ‘Hello.’ Simon also bowed his head in greeting.
“I took a leave of absence last year due to various complicated issues, but fortunately, I was able to attend Keygen again starting this year. Ezel will be starting her third year all over again.”
Jane said that and handed over a loudspeaker crystal ball.
Azel timidly took it with both hands and came forward.
“… … Uh, um. That’s it. I’m worried that I’m causing trouble to you guys, but I’ll do my best. Please take care
of me.”
Those words were met with enthusiastic applause.
Unlike Balak, Azel was well-recognized by the 329th unit, and more than anything, everyone now knew Azel’s
story.
Simon also nodded.
‘It looks like Nephthys followed along and did a lot of persuasion.’
Azel probably had no intention of returning to Keygen, but he seemed to have returned thanks to Nephthys and
Keygen’s persistent persuasion.
His role is to strengthen the power of the entire third year in the face of a war against the organization. And it appears to be controlled by the same third grader.
Third-year students are expected to be mainly deployed in the war against the Order as Keygen’s core force. If
Azel is there, he will be able to protect Unit 329, and more than anything, it will be possible for Azel, who is a senior and a repeat student, to control the third-year students who are likely to wield power.
In the future, it seemed like it would play a role like a hidden card in many ways within Keygen. Even from the student council perspective, his presence was significant.
“Student Azel, please return to your seat.”
“Yes, yes!”
Azel came down from the podium. He came around to the back and sat down next to Kazan, a fellow student
who was sitting in the very back. The two people were seen lightly bumping their fists.
Soon Jane held up a new document.
“And I have one more announcement.”
The chaotic atmosphere immediately subsided. Jane opened her mouth.
“It’s about the corps commander in our grade.”
