Round 2 Starts With 990,000 Points

3 – Exam after the entrance ceremony

Mutuga.

It is by far the strongest job group among the hunter jobs recognized by the association.

To the extent that Choi Kang-cheol, the hero who played the biggest role during the outbound incident, was also a martial artist.

Martial artists are the strongest occupational group when fighting bare-handed, and there are cases where they are armed with gauntlets, but most of them aim for bare-handed combat.

The best weapon is only the body… Martial artists who use weapons based on the slogan of “About this” Are generally evaluated as evildoers. And it’s not just because of beliefs.

『The Origin of Nothing』

[Genius level][Non-attribute][Direct type][Growth type]

The origin of all radishes. You will be penalized when using any type of armament that is classified as a weapon. You get a huge advantage when unarmed.

* Increases the durability of the body.

* You can hit things that cannot be physically hit.

* All general abilities are calibrated according to the mastery of the talent.

“Realization song… This.”

However, ironically, martial artists, who are considered the best professions, are not popular. It’s not just unpopular, it’s often ignored or ignored.

What is the reason?

Unlike other occupational groups, ‘all general abilities’ are calibrated.

“… Effort is the answer this time too.”

For normal talents, certain abilities grow according to proficiency.

For example, in the case of talents related to swords, strength is the best, health is the second best, and dexterity and technique grow to normal levels.

Because the stats that are advantageous to the occupational group grow the fastest, it is differentiated from other occupations.

Then what about martial arts?

* All general abilities are calibrated according to the mastery of the talent.

All normal stats. So, the five general abilities, strength, health, intelligence, dexterity, and skill, all rise evenly. So to be fair.

“… ….”

The growth of stats related to direct combat is relatively slow, so it is at a disadvantage compared to other occupations, and since there is no weapon help, it is really weak in the beginning.

In this era where the magic weapon industry is in charge of one axis of hero power, not using weapons is like carrying an encyclopedia instead of a smartphone, saying it’s digital fasting.

“But… He is the strongest in the second half.”

Ironically, when the growth of abilities reaches its limit, it becomes much stronger than any other occupational group.

To put it simply, this is it.

The high point pierces the sky, but the trough pierces the bottom.

One week later. Hansung Academy Auditorium located in Wonju-si, Gangwon-do.

“I sincerely congratulate the apprentice hero cadets on their admission.”

Sitting in the freshman seat, I am watching the entrance ceremony with blank eyes.

It’s the beginning of my school lunch life again….

I feel strange. I get a little nervous too.

Is it because there is a class assignment test after the entrance ceremony?

I want to conserve energy while sleeping… It won’t work

It is not a good environment to sleep because of the excessive shutter sound from nearby cameras.

No, because countless people were located in the auditorium, befitting the mad setting of the world’s best academy.

“That handsome boy is Choi Kang-cheol’s son, right?”

“I heard that this freshman lineup is great.”

“There are a lot of people from the Order of the Guardians. Prior contact would be illegal, but why? .”

From journalists to guild scouts and influential people from heroic families.

There are even government officials.

If you sleep in a situation like this, people’s glares will pierce your body.

“… Growl.”

However, even in this situation, it seems that there are people who are sleeping.

I turned my head to follow the snoring.

The person sitting next to me was snoring lightly and shaking his head.

Red short hair.

And excessively long eyelashes.

Even though she looks pretty while sleeping, at first glance, she looks like she has a temper.

“… Ktsueuup.”

The girl who barely swallowed the drool was a person I knew.

“Ko Soo-young.”

“… Yes?”

Ko Soo-young narrowed her eyes for a second at the sound calling her name, then she closed her eyes again and started shaking her head.

You should stay away from him as much as possible.

It’s not because the saliva is dirty.

Considering the class placement test, it is better to physically distance yourself after the entrance ceremony.

“Gi-Sung Choi, the best in admissions grade—.”

The moderator on the podium said.

Now, it seems that the award ceremony will be held during the entrance ceremony.

“Wow~ The glow flows from the skin. What is it, him?”

“You look prettier than me….”

“Didn’t Choi Ji-seong say he didn’t have a girlfriend?”

Choi Ji-seong has a good personality, a good personality, and, above all, good-looking, as befits the real protagonist of this novel.

It is not only Choi Ji-seong who is proud.

“Han Cheol-woo with excellent entrance grades—.”

As Han Cheol-woo stepped onto the podium, amazement flowed from people’s mouths.

If Choi Ji-sung is a warm handsome man, then Han Cheol-woo is a cool handsome man.

The two are almost perfectly symmetrical in terms of talent, personality, and looks.

“… The dog is really handsome.”

After that, Yoo Seong-won, Uyuna, and Ha Yeon-si each went up to the podium at the call of the moderator.

People openly cheered when Yu Na and Ha Yeon Si appeared.

“Wow, that dog is pretty.”

“Crazy. What kind of cup is that chest? A K-cup?”

“Huh, it looks like an elf in a fantasy novel.”

Choi Ji-seong, Han Cheol-woo, Yoo Seong-won, Uyuna, Ha Yeon-si… they are good

Because they are the main characters in this novel.

Including Ko Soo-young, who is sleeping right next to me.

“…… Uh.”

By the way, where is the other one?

Go Soo-young is sleeping next to me, and I don’t know where the other one is.

She also has her eye-catching appearance, so it’s normal for her to be seen right away….

Looking around, I soon found the one remaining.

“… Moyeji.”

A beautiful girl with her long silver hair was staring dissatisfiedly over her podium with her arms crossed.

* * *

“This concludes the Hansung Academy entrance ceremony. All new students and distinguished guests, except for the officials, please leave.”

At the words of the moderator, people left in an orderly manner.

After a while, only the cadets and instructors were left in the auditorium.

Amidst the cadets sitting in a mess, a bandit-looking man stepped out of the group of instructors.

“Attention!”

His shout caught the eyes of the cadets.

“Nice to meet you. This instructor is Park Dae-shik, a practice instructor in Daejeon, who will introduce the future schedule.”

A small glint in the eyes of the cadets at his introduction.

“730Th in the world rankings. Ranked 348th in the Association, people call me the hell dog.”

Park Dae-sik, the dog of hell.

I know that nickname.

The name was given because once selected, the prey will be chased to hell.

He has the experience of tracking down and killing Mine who have gone missing for 20 years.

To be honest… Thats a crazy kid

“You will be very excited as you just entered the academy. My heart is pounding and I feel like something has happened. So you just want to hang out. But don’t do that. If you mess around, you die quickly.”

At his warning, the cadets fell silent.

“And there will be a placement test soon…. Maybe someone is curious. Why is the class not assigned in the order of admission grades but a separate test? To put it bluntly, you don’t even have to take a test for the good guys like Choi Ji-seong and Han Cheol-woo, right? Is not it?”

The cadets burst into laughter at his light joke.

Park Dae-sik cleared his throat and continued.

“But it is a tradition. Important in many ways. Honestly, it’s easier for the instructors to assign classes in order of grades. However, in order to keep the tradition of the academy’s entrance ceremony, and to better understand your talents, I am doing this.”

He said so, but I know the real reason.

It mentions tradition or the understanding of talent, but it is not true.

It must be to identify the Mine who have sneaked into the academy.

“Well, anyway, a hero is not a math teacher who sits in the corner of a room and solves math problems. Did you tell me earlier? If you mess around, you’ll fall behind. But even if you’re weak, get behind. Both physically and socially. The academy’s numerous welfare and training systems exist only for those who work hard. Do not forget this.”

The cadets responded vigorously to his words.

“Then, I will start the placement test from now on. Everyone stand up and stand in front of the instructor you like.”

The cadets rose from their seats.

I got up too.

“… Eh, huh?”

Go Soo-young, who was sitting next to me, also woke up.

“Haaa~. Turn it off.”

She yawned and stretched herself.

It looked like a chick and was cute.

“The test begins now. You guys choose the instructor yourself.”

Park Dae-sik said.

“If you want to get a high score, stand in front of a strong instructor. By the way, I ask you to never look at other cadets. And from now on, don’t even open your mouth. If there is a cadet who gives hints to other cadets, I will give them the lowest score.”

I looked towards the podium while listening to Park Dae-shik’s threats.

There were 10 instructors standing there.

… It’s a start.

15 Years ago, I took a rough look at the placement test.

It was because I had no intention of earning points for my contribution.

But not anymore.

You must be in the same class as the main characters.

To do that, you need to get a high score on the placement test.

“… ….”

The cadets moved.

Most of them stood in front of instructors such as Choi Ji-seong, Han Cheol-woo, Uyuna and Ha Yeon-si.

The main characters were also divided, but they didn’t seem to feel a sense of incongruity.

Of course, they are not the right answer.

‘… Moyeji.’

In the first place, Mo Ye-ji is the only one who gets the correct answer in this test.

I looked sideways at Mo Yeji.

Mo Yeji took a deep breath and opened her eyes.

After a while she stood before the instructor, who had not chosen any cadets, and no one was standing.

I walked up to her and stood behind her.
