30 – Transfer Ceremony (6)

Academy City’s transfer test basically measures an individual’s ability.

It’s to get the ability to discriminate according to combat characteristics.

For example, the level of the body and the strength of the aura are evaluated for the warrior class in charge of the front line, and the speed and amount of magic power of the chant are evaluated for the magic class in charge of the rear guard.

It is not possible to evaluate people with different combat characteristics in the same way, so we adopt a method of evaluating them by specializing them according to their characteristics.

In front of the applicants for admission, there are 5 judges invited from G1 level academies, and the applicants perform the tasks suggested by the judges and show off their abilities.

‘From my point of view, it feels similar to a job interview.’

To be honest, it is no different from an interview.

Especially in the case of magic jobs, the atmosphere is more like an interview, with old professors in charge of the evaluation.

“The warrior class is…”

Is this really the Gate of Wailing?

I sighed as I looked at the dozens of steel doors installed in the Warrior Proving Grounds.

The plain black door looked fine on the outside, but in reality it was a vicious door that boasted considerable weight.

‘That thing can’t be moved with ordinary power.’

No matter how strong you are, you cannot open a door that boasts astronomical weight.

If there is a way…….

“You’re asking for physical strengthening.”

It is to strengthen the physical ability by rotating the aura to the entire body.

‘Aura can only be released at the age of 20 at the earliest, but it’s possible for them to use things like strengthening as well.’

Fortunately, today’s aspirants did not include middle school and elementary school students who could not deal with internal skills as well as high school students and university students.

So it’s worth taking this test.

The content of the test will be different for the transfer to elementary school and middle school tomorrow.

“Anyway, from high school, you look at your inner strength.”

At the age of high school, even if you just deal with Aurors, you’ll hear geniuses outside, but it’s definitely Academy City.

‘They say it’s a place where all the talented people on the continent gather, but I know it’s not an empty word.’

It was then.

An aspirant who just happened to step forward stood in front of the Wailing Gate.

He swallowed a gulp as if nervous, then put his hand on the door–

“That’s wrong.”

I couldn’t move at all.

At that moment, the aspirant stopped and immediately gave his strength to the point that his face turned red.

‘It’s impossible, that’s it.’

I looked at the door that still didn’t open, then looked away.

‘Aura operation is messed up.’

The aura that started in the danteon is not circulating properly even in the hands and feet, let alone the whole body.

The aura that is the source of power is that shape, so it’s only natural that the door won’t open.

‘He’s eliminated.’

To enter Academy City, you must open at least one door.

As long as he can’t open a single door, he’s eliminated.

As expected.

Leaving behind him as he was forcibly dragged away, he observed the aspirants standing in front of the door behind him.

.

.

.

The test did not last long.

Since the number of people is the number of people, there were quite a few people waiting for the entire job, but the judges reported passing if the door was open even slightly, and failing without hesitation if the door was not opened at all.

In an instant, the hopes and sorrows of the aspirants were divided, and those who did not pass disappeared from the test site leaving behind a deathbed.

“Soon.”

And I was feeling tense as I looked at Noah, who hadn’t taken the test yet.

Being below average in every way, to be honest, he had a very low chance of passing this exam.

If you open even one door, you did well.

That’s because the Gate of Wailing was, as the name suggests, a wall made of the tears of aspirants.

That was the moment he thought about it.

“…!”

Geug geug geug —-!

The door of wailing, which had allowed only a small gap until now, was wide open.

The smallest door opens, followed by the second overlapping door.

I was still looking at it without much inspiration, but when the third and fourth doors were opened, I couldn’t hide my admiration and looked there.

“Whoa.”

I have often seen the door open while serving as chairman, but this was quite strange.

Among the past students, there were students who opened doors 6 and 7 as well as number 4, so there was nothing special about opening the door itself.

Just–

“Is that pure brute force?”

It is unusual enough to open door number 4 without any internal energy.

I said earlier that a normal person would never be able to open it with pure brute force, but that is only half true.

It would be correct if this was the original world, but unfortunately, this is a fantasy world where non-humans also exist.

“For ignorant people to open it only by force. Those who try to open the door will go crazy when they see it.”

Not only the strong Beasts, but also the Dwarves with high durability and the Dragons with strong physical strength by nature failed.

To open not one but four doors that even the continent’s leading powerhouses failed.

I immediately shifted my gaze to the man who opened the door.

“Still bad taste.”

And then I found a familiar face.

“Is it still the same?”

He was a man with shackles hanging all over his body.

A man with large shackles on his arms and legs as well as his neck.

At first glance, the outfit was more like a prisoner than an aspiring student.

The overall black outfit looked similar to a military uniform, but the eyes of the man wearing it were so dead that it reminded me of a soldier who had gone through a real war.

Seeing his unchanging appearance, I spontaneously opened my mouth.

“The bailiff.”

That is also Dongriam’s chief executive officer.

I knew about it because I received the report, but I never thought I would have applied.

That’s right——!

After that, when the executioner started operating the aura, the door that had been opened up to number 4 opened up to number 8 in an instant.

“It’s definitely not the skill of an incoming student.”

I wonder if the place he applied for was the university department.

Even a college student right before graduation was a chick compared to him.

In the first place, he was a guy who ran around on the battlefield, so it would be difficult to judge him on the same line as the others.

Because I knew him in the past when he was active on the front lines, I know for sure what a monster he is.

Apart from me, he’s probably the strongest guy at the transfer ceremony.

Including the instructors.

I heard that ‘Totenkopf’, which he belonged to, was also disbanded when Liam’s kingdom collapsed, but I don’t know why he came here.

‘Well, don’t worry, he’s not the kind of guy who would do anything stupid.’

The ability to empathize is poor, but he’s not a bad guy, so there’s no need to be very wary.

.

.

.

Time passed quickly and before I knew it, Noah’s turn came.

‘Finally!’

From an objective point of view, the possibility wasn’t very high, but it’s just a possibility!

Maybe Noah will acquire a special skill and open the door at once… !

“I am eliminated.”

…Well, that’s right.

I looked at Noah with cold eyes as if I had expected it.

Breaking out in a cold sweat and not knowing what to do, Noah was soon kicked out of the exam room under the guidance of the instructor.

At the same time, screams were heard in the distance, but were soon drowned out by the noise.

It seems that at least some of the dropouts came from other characteristics.

“The only thing left now is the scout.”

I was troubled.

To be honest, it’s because with Noah’s skills right now, G1, let alone G2, even G3 is close.

G3 level academies that are relatively thirsty for talented people might have paid attention to Noah, but to be honest, he didn’t show anything in the exam hall, so he wouldn’t have appealed to them properly.

G3 is the lowest level in Academy City, but since he is a G3, he will not choose Noah.

They would want to recruit someone who showed even a little bit of ability.

‘Nevertheless, it must mean that the scout’s intuition is very good to offer Noah a scout.’

The scouts who recruited the main character from generation to generation were also people with excellent intuition.

In Episode 1, the scout recruited him after failing to join the mercenary team, believing only his instincts.

Noah’s father, the main character of the second film, also fell out of the transfer ceremony and barely entered the school after receiving an offer from a scout from G3.

‘The line at that time was definitely ‘Ting and came!’.’

At the time, I wondered what kind of nonsense that was.

As a result, considering the achievements of the main character in the previous work, he is a really great scout because he saw through it.

‘Come to think of it, thanks to the main character of the previous game, Kritika was also promoted to G1.’

Perhaps capturing the Demon King was decisive.

Now that Kritika, who had only stayed in G3, has been raised to the ranks of a prestigious school called G1.

‘If Noah reveals his identity even now, he will send love calls from all kinds of academies…….’

There’s no way Noah will reveal his true identity.

What do you mean by this…….

The main character of the previous work still showed his skills through an incident during the transfer ceremony, but Noah was not like that, so it was obvious that even G3-level academies would act passively.

At this rate, the situation will end without even being scouted!

“I’ll have to go first.”

Hiding my anxious feelings, I hurriedly headed out of the transfer ceremony hall.

“……?”

But my expectations were wrong.

“Boy! Please enter our Clay Combat School!”

“No! Enter Damien Private High School!”

“Where are the only G3-level nerds! Hey, student Noah! Enter our Lumen Warrior Academy! Unlike those low-level schools, we are a G2-level academy!”

“Eh? Uh, so…?”

“Huh! Lumen or something like that tarnishes the name of G2. Everyone, I’ve caused trouble. The remark I just made just means Lumen. All of us, G2, respect you. And Noah students? You can raise your capabilities to the highest level, so please try to immerse yourself in the Maehwa martial arts school.”

That’s in a good way too.
