Episode 6 – practical test

Hey, it’s practical skills, right? Why are we doing practicals from the very beginning? Isn’t the world too hard on me?

How sad for the historical Marquis of Astia, who is a disgrace to his family. Why am I lamenting like this?—-

“(Hey, Elesia san! Isn’t this a cause to appeal that I am the ‘black knight’!!)”

Adele, who was led to the training hall where the examination was held, makes eye contact with Elesia next to her so as not to be suspected by the surrounding examinees.

“(It can’t be helped. It is the academy’s policy to discover talented young people, so isn’t it more evidence style than argument?)”

Is it the result of the trust between the two of them and the time they have spent together that they are able to establish a conversation through eye contact?

Elesia also continues the conversation through eye contact with a nonchalant expression on her face.

“(Even if the students here only give me gifts that I despise, if I show them off in front of everyone, it’ll be more proof than argument in a different sense!?)”

Even though the paparazzi had taken pictures of him, he did not seem to believe it as far as he heard the whispering of the students who had visited the school.

However, what would happen if Adele himself once again showed evidence of being a “black knight” — that is, if he demonstrated his ability? What if someone would believe him? What a thought crossed Adele’s mind.

“(Then, master ……, would you like to go back to the mansion?)”

“(Ugh, ……!)”

“(It’s the only academy where you can enroll right away, and it’s a beautiful coin toss of two choices)”

“(A coin toss that doesn’t seem to have a prize written on either the front or the back ……!)”

Adele thinks frantically as he takes in Elesia’s words.

If the man who has been called a disgrace shows some of his abilities, you can definitely see that he is confident. Even so, if he were to turn around, his father and other siblings would probably force him to join the Knights when he returned.　

It is hell to go forward, and it is hell to go back.

After weighing each of them, which way will he lean?

“(I-I’m going to take the test as it is. ……!)”

“(Fufu, I knew you would say that♪)”

The school is still a place where you can protect yourself.

Rumors will probably spread, but it won’t affect him at all while he is at the school.

That’s why he made a painful…yes, a really difficult decision, and chose to enter the academy.

–All for the sake of peace for three years! I can think about it later! ! !

” (In the first place, you should just suppress your ability and go for the exam. There’s no need to go out of your way to show your cards and expose yourself).”

“(That’s right ……!? I just have to match levels while keeping an eye on everyone else!)”

There is no need to be out of your element as a “black knight” in any way.

All He need to do is pass the school exam and be able to enroll.

He haven’t met many people his own age and grew up in a non-standard family, so he doesn’t know what to expect right now, but he’ll have to take a closer look.

–Don’t worry, if I don’t get my turn first, I’ll be fine–

[Now, Adele Astia, the first one, come forward!]

Oh…….

“(…… master.)”

“(Why is the …… world so hard on me?)”

Elesia unintentionally looked at him with pity, as if he did not expect to be the first among a certain number of people

Adele, who receives such a pitying look, walks down to the examiner, the lecturer, crying wistfully.

[Fufu, what can you do if you embarrass yourself in the practical?]

[It’s going to be a commemorative exam, isn’t it?]

[Hey, Don’t laugh at him. Even if he’s an embarrassment, it’s embarrassing to be embarrassed]

–These voices reach my ears every time I pass by a student taking the exam.

–Do you think I can’t hear you? If it wasn’t for the style of a first class welcome to be ridiculed, I would have gotten angry. Adele feels like it’s someone else’s problem.

“Well, Adele Astia-kun—I’ll start by looking at the magic.”

The moment Adele appeared nearby, the instructor pointed to a target at the edge of the training field.

The distance is roughly 80 meters. The target is small, and it would be all a young man could do just to hit it before he became a student.

“Anything over there is fine. If you can guess the magic, the exam will be over. However, it does not mean that you will pass if you guessed correctly, and fail if you do not, but please think of it as part of the evaluation criteria.”

Most of the students who come here to take the exam are aristocrats, and most of them study with a private tutor, though not as much as the Astians.

Therefore, although there are some strengths and weaknesses, there is no such thing as “I can’t take the exam because I can’t use magic”. Even if there were, it would not mean that they could not take the exam, but it is almost certain that they would fail the exam.

However, the problem is that Adele doesn’t know how much he needs to meet the criteria to pass.

(Damn it …… seriously, how good do young people today have to be to be able to handle magic!)

He can show the instructor that he can handle magic a little better than the other students.

However, it is difficult to spoon-feed them because he doesn’t know what the standard is. It would be a disaster if he failed the exam by cutting corners too badly.

(Aaah, to hell with it! Whatever!)

Adele stepped forward with a determined heart.

Without holding up his hand or spinning a chant, he slowly sat down on the ivy chair that had suddenly appeared.

“A-Adele Astia-kun ……?”

The sudden appearance of the chair startled the lecturer.

Not only that, but even the surrounding students, except for Elesia, were startled and started to make noises.

However, it didn’t reach Adele’s ears, who was nervous.

“The King of the Forest.”

—- The moment he uttered this, the training hall was dyed green.
