Episode 236: National Collegiate League (1)
A strange aura has been hovering over the Empire’s top university, ‘Colosseo Academy’ lately.
The reason for this was that the date of the alliance competition held by the top universities in the empire was approaching.
‘National Collegiate League’.
An annual event in which the four universities representing the empire gather in one place to determine superiority and inferiority.
Colosseo Academy maintained the best grades every time in the annual university evaluation, but in fact, the other three universities were also formidable opponents.
Colosseo Academy
(Colosseo Academy).
Varangian Training Center
(Boot camp Varangian).
magic tower
(魔塔).
Themiscyra Women’s College
(Themiscyra Womens University).
The other three prominent universities, Varangian, Magic Tower, and Themiscyra, are closely following Colosseo Academy.
Varangian is a northern university famous for its ‘warrior training center’, and it was a specialized college specializing in cold weapons such as swords, spears, axes, and bows.
The Mage Tower is also a specialized college in the eastern part of the country, famous as a ‘law training center’, where those who walk the path of magic gather here to study.
It is, of course, a fever weapon to deal with.
Themisquira is a southern comprehensive university with an educational system most similar to the Colosseo Academy.
Students attending this school can select cold weapons and heat weapons as their majors according to their talents, aptitudes, and tastes, and can choose other studies as minors, double majors, or liberal arts.
However, the difference from the Colosseo Academy is that it restricts admissions to women only.
(Except in very exceptional cases)
Now, with the showdown with these formidable rivals imminent, the Colosseo Academy is tense like the eve of a storm.
Colosseo freshmen Tudor, Sancho, Piggy, Bianca, and Sinclair did just that.
“This is the first time I meet people from other schools.”
“First place is painful. If you do well, you make a profit, if you don’t, you lose.”
“I am a little nervous. Can I do well?”
“What are you dropping? While doing well in the Colosseo.”
“That’s right~ After all, they are all the same age!”
Since they are newbies, they seem to have a lot of questions about the culture and academic customs of other schools.
In the meantime, Sinclair and Sancho had the experience of taking entrance exams at other schools, so they were even attracting attention from other students.
“Come to think of it, didn’t Sancho get first place in the Varangian entrance exam?”
“Those kids will grind their teeth if they see Sancho.”
“Why are you grinding your teeth?”
“Of course I will go. Because they abandoned their school and went somewhere else. Will it look good?”
“Then Sinclair is in bigger trouble? Because he was ranked first in the entrance exam for the Mage Tower and also in the entrance exam for Themiscyra.”
“I don’t know, but there must be a lot of kids in other schools who are looking for him.”
Even Sinclair was a monster who ranked first in all entrance exams at universities with magic faculties, such as the Magic Tower, Themiscyra, and Colosseo.
I don’t know, but it seemed clear that I would receive jealous stares.
at that time. A male student wearing a black cloak appeared with arrogance.
“Don’t worry, stupid friends. I will personally go to the tournament and give you true education in the lower things.”
It was Grenouille Leviathan.
He had been quite arrogant since he had recently joined the aristocratic faction.
Tudor, who had always looked down on Grenouille, was sarcastically.
“Hey minus it. Are you going to the competition too?”
“What kind of rude words!? Don’t you know that this competition has no age limit? Anyone who does not have a record of taking the same subject twice or more, such as a class student, a person on probation from graduation, or a repeat student, can participate!”
“Who asks because they don’t know?”
Tudor quickly lost interest and turned his head away, but Grenouille’s admonishing and explanatory temperament seems to remain the same.
“I will personally explain the nature and rules of the tournament to you lackeys.”
1. The official name of the competition held by the four university leagues is ‘Olympiad Survival Contest’, another name is ‘Battle Royale Ground Zero’.
2. A total of 400 students warp in a randomly designated large place, and the task is to survive somehow for a limited time in it.
3. Everyone wears an HP suit to compete, and the moment this HP reaches 0, you are automatically eliminated.
4. The top 10 students who achieved good grades in the competition for survival were awarded tax-free artifacts stored in a treasure house jointly managed by the four universities.
“Now that I have explained this in detail, please refrain from holding me back at the event.”
Grenouille finished the explanation with a proud attitude.
at that time.
… puck
There was an existence that struck Grenouille on the shoulder.
“Oh, what is it? What kind of guy dares to bite the body of this body… … .”
Grenouille turned his head away with an annoyed expression.
There stood a tall male student with black hair and red eyes.
“what.”
Hive Baskerville.
He, who reigns as the heavyweight of Class B of the Cold Weapons Donation Department, is looking down at Grenouille.
“… … .”
Grenouille looked up at Hivero’s face, which was well over two inches tall, in silence for a moment.
Grenouille, who was usually arrogant, knew it. What a F*cking temperament Hive of Cold Weapons Donation Class B had.
“Oh, no.”

“… … I’m sorry.”
Hivero glanced Grenouille up and down once, then hurried away.
“… … I’m sorry.”
“… … I’m sorry.”
What’s even more upsetting is that the gazes of Middle and Low Bros followed him one after another.
Left alone, Grenouille began to tremble.
“Um, those crazy dogs are real!? If it hadn’t been for the three of them, I would have scolded them! Oh, the side number is a thug, a thug!”
Everyone was looking at Grenouille with sad eyes.
at that time.
I saw another male student walking down the street where Hivero, Middlebro, and Lowbro passed.
Seeing that face, Tudor, Sancho, Piggy, Bianca, and Sinclair cheered.
“Bikir! Here!”
“Good morning today, friend.”
“I saw the dating rumors well, Bikir~”
“Is that real? isn’t it? Maybe with the real student president?”
“Ugh! Of course not! My older brother said he wasn’t interested in dating!”
Friends soon surrounded Bikir and started talking about the tournament.
“But the real dating rumor… … ?”
“Are you saying it’s not Bikir? Rather, this time, it seems that it is possible to participate without class restrictions. If there are 100 students in each school, roughly 20 students will be assigned in the first grade.”
“that’s right. Because the real aces are 3rd graders. It is customary for fourth graders not to participate.”
“Isn’t it roughly 50 third graders, 30 second graders, and 20 first graders?”
“Since we had good grades in the midterm exam, of course we will be included.”
The conversation eventually ends with Bikir.
Tudor asked.
“So Bikir. What will Joe do? Looking at it, the score is evaluated individually, but the participation itself has to be done in groups. 5 people, 1 trillion.”
Tudor, Sancho, Piggy, Bianca, Sinclair, Bikir.
The number of people in the group that I usually hang out with is 6, so it is a bit difficult for everyone to form a group.
A situation where it would be better to be divided into 3 people and 3 people.
“okay. I’d rather play 3-on-3 and have two other kids in each group. Now then, Bikir is our group for now~”
“What is it, why are you taking Bikir as you please?”
“that’s right! This should be done fairly by lot!”
“I’m going to the group where Bikire is~”
“Death! I also want to be in the same group as you this time!”
In a situation where they are divided into two groups, everyone wants to be in the same group as Bikir.
But in this situation, Bikir came up with a different answer.
“hmm. I am already in another group.”
“what? also? It was like that during the midterm exam too!”
“This is also a prior oath. I am sorry.”
At Bikir’s answer, the friends were blatantly disappointed.
Sinclair in particular was most obviously downcast.
“I wanted to be in the same group as my brother this time.”
“hmm. sorry again This time, I also have a pretty clear sense of purpose.”
Everyone’s eyes widened at Bikir’s words.
“… … purpose?”
It was the first time for Bikir to reveal his inner feelings, so everyone forgot their regrets and showed their curiosity.
And for some reason, Bikir readily answered.
“I heard that if you place in the top 10 in this competition, you can receive one of the treasures stored in the treasure house jointly managed by the four universities.”
Bikir said with her eyes sparkling, which is rare.
Tudor, Sancho, Piggy, Bianca, and Sinclair all tilted their heads in surprise.
It’s the first time I’ve seen Bikir want something so blatantly.
“Is there a treasure you’re aiming for?”
“Yes.”
“what is that?”
“It is a secret.”
“Oh what! I was wondering if you could tell me why!”
Tudor, who has an impatient personality, is the first to shout.
Sinclair, who usually had many secrets, also had shining eyes.
“Hyung-ah, it seems that there is an artifact that he is aiming for. so do i. But you know what?”
“?”
“Just because you went into the treasure house doesn’t mean you can get the treasure unconditionally. It seems that this is only possible if you choose a treasure.”
In the treasure house managed by the four major universities, there are artifacts that can be said to be treasures of the world.
They all have spirituality, and it is said that they do not wait to be picked by the owner, but choose the owner on their own.
Artifacts that meet their owner stay by the owner’s side until the end of their lifespan, after which they return to the warehouse.
Sinclair smiled and continued.
“In other words, you have to choose one of the artifacts that select you. They say I can’t always have what I want. Even if you enter the warehouse at most, and no artifact picks you up, you must just come back empty-handed.”
However, such restrictions had nothing to do with Bikir, who had memories before returning.
‘I just need to be able to enter the treasure house.’
That’s also true, because Bikir’s ultimate goal was not to possess the artifact, but to destroy it.
Vikir recalled in his mind what he had to go into the treasure trove and choose.
‘Seventh decade. It will be sleeping in the treasure house.’
An object-type demon, the only one among the ten demons that exists.
The existence of ‘Dekarabia’, the seventh poem (七番尸), was exactly that.
