Genius Gamer, Reincarnated into a Heroic Family Episode 88
Entrance Exam (4)
Passed the third test.
As soon as she saw the results, Harang hurriedly left the testing room without even having time to shout in joy.
He headed to the bathroom in a corner of the examination room, ignoring the wizards who approached him, who seemed to want to ask him questions, and opened the stall and stepped inside.
“Wheww!!”
Harang retched and wiped away the tears that had gathered in her eyes with a tissue.
“……blood.”
There was blood on the tissue.
Not only was there blood flowing from the nose, but tears of blood were also flowing.
This was the price I paid for forcing myself to triple cast. Not only did I raise the synchronization rate too much, but I also tried to control my magic too much, so I ended up experiencing a belated backlash.
That’s not all.
Triple casting, which was pretended to be done with one hand, was actually the result of using the Baek Eun Cheon Ryong Sim Gong to overheat the magical power of the entire body and forcibly overload the mana circuits within the body, making it completely impossible to use in actual combat.
‘Ugh, headache.’
It may be a high price to pay for one act of bluffing, but if you think of it as the price of being accepted into the great magic school Arniel, you could say it was a cheap price to pay.
“ha…….”
Harang came out of the toilet stall and realized that her appearance in the mirror was very miserable, so she went back into the stall and leaned her head against the wall.
‘I can’t go on like this.’
Of course, as word spread about the genius of the wizard Days, reporters, Magic Tower officials, and Arniel’s professors would come to visit, so I couldn’t show myself like this.
He hates looking weak more than anything in the world.
I didn’t want anyone to find out that I ended up like this because of the triple casting I did earlier.
‘Let’s just wait a little bit… until the rebound subsides.’
Harang, who had slid down onto the toilet, closed her eyes.
When I opened my eyes again.
Before we knew it, the time for the 4th ‘Magical Insight Test’ was approaching.
‘Did you sleep in the toilet for 3 hours?’
Harang checked the time on her wristwatch and stood up with a deep sigh. Her condition was still not good.
‘Triple casting is useless in real life.’
The condition was still not good.
I’m probably going to have a hard time for a few days.
Fortunately, the fourth test required little use of magic.
I think it was said that using it once or twice would be enough.
However, it is too early to feel relieved.
Because the 4th test was conducted in a different way every year, there were limitations to finding out information in advance.
Harang, who had somehow managed to smooth away her haggard expression, left the bathroom.
‘My body feels heavy.’
When I thought about the reason, it was not only because I had no strength, but also because I had weight bands all over my body.
But I felt like I would lose my will if I tried to remove the weight band, so I endured it with great difficulty and dragged my feet.
When he arrived at the testing center, he was greeted by a dome larger than the World Cup stadium.
In this pure white space, there are now only 100 8th grade test takers left. Half of the 200 test takers were eliminated in the previous test.
Among these remaining people, the number of people who will pass is at most about 30.
‘… … You must not let your guard down until the very end.’
Harang’s eyes softened.

Citrine was very upset now.
“Ah, annoying. What, what are you looking at?”
Citrine is grumbling and irritated.
The students didn’t stop glancing at her, even though they were annoyed by her.
‘Crazy, that doesn’t look like a real person.’
‘Wow, angel… … .’
‘You still say that after seeing that dirty tone?’
‘So what? You’re the princess.’
The reason the students kept glancing at her and gossiping was all the same: her appearance was so beautiful that it was hard to believe she was human.
Citrine’s appearance was overly provocative to adolescent boys, and it seemed that this applied to adolescent girls as well, regardless of gender, as the gazes directed at her were not limited to either gender.
However, I was really annoyed by the attention I received for things like my looks.
‘I wanted to get attention for my magical skills, not for this beggarly face.’
She imagined.
Imagine the princess of Herael, who is not even from a magic powerhouse, suddenly enrolling in Arniel and beating out geniuses and even the five great families to become the best!
But far from being the best, it ended up just being a little bit above average.
It was none other than the boy named Zelka Ainglass and Days who showed off an overwhelming performance!
‘Oh, triple casting.’
That was not something even she could easily attempt.
To begin with, it could be considered a miracle that he was able to dual cast at the age of fourteen.
There were so many geniuses in this place who could cast dual casts that it didn’t seem like much of a deal, but… … .
‘Still, whatever, as long as you show your true self here, that’s enough!’
As Citrine clenched her fists and made her resolution, someone deliberately brushed her shoulder.
“Huh.”
The culprit was a girl with sky blue hair who seemed to be about 10 cm taller than Citrine. It was Ailka Wilzed.

“Oh my… … Hey! Are you crazy?”
When she suddenly shouted, Ailka turned around with indifferent eyes, smiled gently, and said, shaking her head.
“Oh, I’m sorry. I couldn’t see you because you’re short.”
“What the heck?!”
“Your ears are itchy. For a princess of Herael, a descendant of the sun, don’t you think you’re too low-class?”
“Heh, dignity is something that only those without dignity can take care of. I am noble and virtuous to begin with, so I don’t need such things.”
“Aha. I see. Well, despite your dignity, your magical talents don’t seem to be as great as those of the five great magic families. It seems that dignity doesn’t teach magic, does it?”
“What? This… … .”
“I really don’t understand. What on earth were you thinking when you entered Arniel? Because you thought your magic was so great that it could rival the five great magic schools? And because you wanted to show it off to everyone? How immature of you.”
Ailka shook her head, turned around, and walked away.
“What are you talking about… … .”
I wanted to refute it, but it was half true. In reality, she had come to show the world that her magic could be proven even in Arniel.
However, this is only ‘half-true’.
That wasn’t the real reason.
‘… … Do you think I’m a reckless fool?’
There is no way that the world-famous Princess Herael would have entered Arniel for just that reason. Even if it weren’t for this method, there would be countless ways to prove her magic.
Additionally, you will be able to learn more valuable teachings at the palace while receiving instruction from Arniel.
The real reason Citrine came here.
It was to get back his own life that was held as collateral.
Or maybe it was just a way to find a way to survive.
Ah, the one and only Princess Herael, who is as dazzlingly beautiful as the sun and who shines brightly alone in the world.
In some ways, it may seem like the most noble status in the world.
‘Nobility is a piece of shit. Someone like me… … .’
All that she has in terms of looks and talent is merely a ‘sacrifice’, graded and valued.
People don’t know.
Now that Kalantatis is asleep, how precariously does the Herael royal family, protected by the immortal guardian ‘El Phoenix’, considered one of the strongest guardians, maintain their contractual relationship?
‘… … I will live my own life.’
In order to do that, Citrine had to become a princess who was young and foolish, but had a talent for magic and believed in it and went around blindly without knowing the subject.
Because in order to lower your ‘value’, you either have to become a truly overwhelming magical genius that no one can touch, or you have to become a fool that the whole world looks down on.
“Anyway, all those Wilzeds are unlucky.”
When she started to have negative thoughts, she crossed her arms and snorted.
Citrine, who had always grown up bright and cheerful, was not suited to having negative thoughts.
‘I just have to prove it. Here, that I am a real genius.’
She sometimes thinks of her second brother, Prince Castia, who lives thoughtlessly.
How great would it be if I could just train in swordsmanship my entire life without any problems?
She sometimes recalls the story of Harang Paul Caladan, who started out as a collateral bloodline and was recognized for his talents from the age of seven, and was held in higher esteem than his direct pure-blood cousins.
A world where everyone sees you for your talents, not your status, and where even kings treat you for your talents.
How happy would that be?
‘… … I will be like that too.’
She pretended to live without thinking in order to live without thinking.
from now on.
Even if you become a thinking woman, not everyone can reach… … .
Not the princess of Herael or something.
There will be one archmage.
‘certainly.’

“We will now begin the 4th entrance exam for the 8th grade. Most of you will probably feel familiar with the objects in this space.”
Inside the dome were various objects such as tall trees and rocks, waterfalls and rivers, lakes and deserts, boiling lava, huge castles and mansions, huts and shacks, ruins and caves.
“Let me tell you one thing. 99% of what you see and feel here is false. In other words, it’s an ‘illusion.’ Your goal here is to find 1% of the truth. If you find even one, you’re a candidate for admission, but if there are many students who find the truth… … the student who finds the object that is closer to the truth will be the one who passes.”
In an instant, the crowd erupted in commotion.
The smell of grass swaying in the wind, boiling hot lava, and even the desert drying out your whole body. Your five senses are already perfectly explaining that this place is real, but most of it is a lie?
Before the explanation was even finished, the students were already doing various experiments, such as digging up sea soil and hitting rocks with their fists.
The judges did nothing to stop such students from acting.
The reason is simple.
‘Because it’s a meaningless action.’
Ailka looked at the students groping on the floor as if she was feeling pitiful.
That type of person will probably not last long and will be eliminated. Even if they are lucky enough to find a real piece of equipment and pass, they will probably not be able to survive the first year and will be expelled.
‘I didn’t know it was this kind of test, but it’s easy if you know the trick.’
Even the five great magic powers do not reveal the content of the Arniel entrance exam in advance. This was the first time Ailka had heard of the exam, but she was confident.
While other ordinary students might never have learned how to overcome illusionary magic, wasn’t she Wilzed, famous for her intuitive insight into magic and her ability to manipulate it with the utmost subtlety?
“Little Princess. Why did you say that to Princess Herael?”
“… … .”
Ailka frowned when one of the examinees asked curiously.
It’s only later that I regret doing something useless.
However, the princess of Wilzed should not easily show her feelings of regret. She should always remain a dignified young lady who lives without any regrets about her actions.
She spoke elegantly, her hair elegantly thrown back over her shoulder.
“I did that because I thought it was annoying that you were so tactless as an uninvited guest.”
“Ah, so that’s what happened!”
Actually, that’s not wrong.
Currently, Ainglass is receiving the most promising bloodlines from the five great magic families, and they are secretly in a competitive relationship.
It also meant that Ailka and Zelka were rivals. Zelka just had a bit of an early start, but Ailka had no doubt that she would catch up someday.
Even in the magical prophecy, it was said that she was destined to become a great wizard… … .
however.
While the bloodlines of the five great magic families are competing in Arniel to determine what ‘real magic’ is, a princess of Herael, who is not even of magical bloodline, gets involved?
That was impossible.
“You seem to think you can use magic on your own… … but you’ll soon learn the truth. No matter how hard you fly and crawl, you can’t make it to the top five magic powers.”
“That’s right. I’m not making fun of the great power of the world’s five greatest magic families, it’s just ridiculous!”
The candidates had already formed a small faction around Ailka, even before they had passed the exam.
She took them for granted.
The existence of humans who cling to and worship the world’s greatest Wilzed has been taken for granted since birth.
‘……petulance.’
Ailka glanced at Princess Citrine. She was looking at someone else.
Following that gaze, a boy with long, black hair and a secret two-tone white hair was standing there.
Unlike before, the boy, who had a somewhat gloomy atmosphere, still showed a mysterious charm, and just like Citrine, his striking appearance drew attention from all directions.
‘That commoner too, is the same.’
Those arrogant guys who just interfere in Zelka’s competition and pretend to be another genius.
‘I don’t like it all…’
