chapter 31 - The female protagonist of the romance novel is strong (1)
Ellen Leon. 4 minutes and 52 seconds."
I beat Ellen.
Of course, it wasn't something I said out of pure skill, it was just a test. Go...
Ellen, this kid has been using magic from the start.
Did he want to eat the delicious food later? Except for his grandson Asran, most of the top rankers were pushed to the back.
That's why, when it was Ellen's turn, she knew that the sword master wouldn't use his magic power until she used hers.
Well, I did make a sacrifice and reveal half of the answer sheet to begin with.
At first, half of the people didn't notice it, and half of the people weren't sure because there was only one test subject.
As the name suggests, Asran used sword skills from the beginning.
As the name suggests, Asran is a swordsman, and after he was stabbed in the back, all the students gained confidence.
From then on, it was possible to prepare according to one's own swordsmanship and strategy.
Unlike the small swordsman, Adam succeeded in holding up well from the beginning to the end. So if you ask me if I'm not very happy about it,
"If I do well, I can win?"

Of course, I couldn't help but feel good.
If not now, then when will you ever be able to beat Ellen?
On the day I defeated Ellen in the kingdom, the instructors held a party and I received an extra performance bonus. How much of a reward would I get if I could do that in the academy, on a report card that was made public to all the students? And I could even use this to legally harass Ellen.
You fell for a girl and didn't even train properly. You said you studied like that, but in the end, you didn't get first place. If you could be that stubborn, it would be really great.
"I wonder what the score will be."
The theory was overwhelming in both the midterm and final.
Anyway, most of the problems with swordsmanship and magic can be solved if you just have a high practical score.
During the midterm exam, the practical exam was interrupted by a terrorist attack, but I was able to get a score close to the highest possible score because I contributed to preventing the terrorist attack.
This time too, there was a difference in the progress, but I still wasted 30 seconds.
Even if Prince Ellen had used magic from the beginning, the subject of the test was to endure longer.
Even without the extra points, it was clear that I would have scored higher.
"If I had known this would happen, I would have studied the theory a bit."
I couldn't help but feel disappointed, because I never imagined there would be a choice to beat Ellen.
"As expected, the sword master is strong."
While I was savoring the opportunity to rebel like that, Prince Ellen, unaware of my thoughts, approached me with a look of satisfaction on his face.
“You look satisfied?”
"Yeah, you've tried everything you can, right?"
He looked very full. If nothing happens to Daisy, I'll be holding a sword instead of flowers for a while. For me, it was a satisfactory direction.
"Even so, he's below me."
That's why I turned up the heat a little more.
"You were just wasting time by being careful."
As soon as he casted You Can't Do It, Prince Ellen's expression became slightly distorted.
I wasn't angry, just a little annoyed.
"Please tell me I fought wisely?"
At that sight, a snicker came out.
No matter how crazy he was about women, it was at times like this that he felt like he was a natural born prosecutor.
"Well, if you were the first one to go out and take notice, then that's a skill."
Prince Ellen also relaxed his expression and praised me.
I'm a bit quick-witted, I make a living off of that.
"Is Daisy doing well on her test?"
"I know you're similar to us, so maybe you'll end up with Violet?"
If it were an ordinary student's time, there would have been no one who would challenge Daisy, who was the only female protagonist among the popular male protagonists (although Violet is present, the original female protagonist Jin Goo is treated as a non-person).
However, after the midterm exam, there were not many people who could touch her first since she was recognized as a saint.
So it's easy to expect that they'll have a friendly duel between friends.
Of course, I knew there were two people who would challenge Daisy.
Since it was a secret between us, I sold Violet as usual.
"Then there's no problem, but it's a bit disappointing."
“What is it?”
"If the two of them fight, it will definitely be something to watch."
Well, Daisy won the bare-handed fight by a landslide.
Violet's grades were said to be at the top level in magic, so she would be able to put up a good fight with Daisy, who has awakened as a saint.
Even if the other person is a romance novel heroine, isn't Violet a possessed person?
Since the same possessed person is aiming for first place in swordsmanship, Violet, as a possessed person who knows the original work, can also aim for first place in magic.
That was the moment I thought.
At that moment, someone ran into the testing room.
He was the guy who took the test about the same time as me and left the testing room to go to the bathroom.
The guy ran towards the students who had finished their exams, and all of a sudden.
"Magic and Daisy are on an 18-game winning streak!"
”……?”
They started shouting out the Daisy King Theory.
***
This year, the Imperial Academy has undertaken bold reforms.
There were many things that were not visible on the outside, and many were being reformed, but in reality, there were only two reasons why the Academy was able to attract such high-profile new students this year. It was because of the presence of Aren, the sword master who was appointed as the head professor of the swordsmanship department, and MacGregor, the former magician of the White Tower who was appointed as the head professor of the magic department. That is why, even in the early days of the Academy, the momentum of the swordsmanship department and the magic department was sky-high.
After the Academy terrorist attack, the momentum of the magic department collapsed miserably.
No matter how much he suffered, he was a nobleman who could do nothing and just slept.
As a former member of the board of directors and as a senior professor, it was an embarrassing incident.
Even the people who solved it, weren't they freshmen, including me?

Normally, it would have been such a ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) big embarrassment that the Academy would have demanded his resignation. But if the Empire hadn't been breached in the first place, the incident wouldn't have happened. Lastly, it felt like it was passed over without a hitch, since not only McGregor, but also other magic professors and assistants were helpless.
The fact that Silence is a hard counter to the wizard.
But even if the Academy passes without a hitch.
As the former head of the White Tower and, furthermore, as the current head of the Imperial Academy's Department of Magic, McGregor had no choice but to work to regain the value of magic that he had lost.
"What's important is skill."
In terms of skill alone, he was full of talent that was comparable to that of the magician of the Magic Tower.
However, it is not enough.
Because there were monsters in the swordsmanship department.
I didn't know as much about swordsmanship as the inspectors.
Through the swordsmanship that he had been through for quite some time, he knew how excellent the skills of Asran, who was called the Little Swordsman, were.
But that Asran is not 1st or 2nd, but always 3rd.
Even to the point where he was so defeated by an overwhelming margin that his nickname was changed to 'the defeated sword master'. In comparison, there were many geniuses who excelled in magic, but there were no overwhelming monsters.
Perhaps Arwen, the prince of Dale, who was known as the supreme power of magic? But even he did not feel like he had broken through the wall.
Even Arwen, who is the most advanced in the magic department, is like that. That is why McGregor changed the rules of this final exam a little.
"To face a wall, trials are necessary."
If the students had heard that, they would have asked what kind of crazy talk that was.
Unfortunately, students were not allowed to enter professors' offices during exam periods unless there were special circumstances.
Some of the magic and experiments were changed by the head professor, McGregor, who specialized in this.
Of course, it wasn't much different from the exam I had prepared for before.
just
"Unlimited?"
A one-on-one magic duel has become a tournament with no winners.
Rotelia and Marie couldn't help but look at each other.
Since it was no longer a competition between grades, Marie also got a chance to challenge Daisy.
'If this happens
'It might seem like bullying.
On the bright side, it would seem like the winner is continually beating down the challengers.
If you look at it negatively, it could end up looking like they're putting one person on stage and bullying them.
So to get my fiancé back
Or, Bori and Marie, who were planning to engage in a magic battle with Daisy to make their loved one look back on their assets, were worried.
"Miss Daisy, I want to fight you."
“Senior?”
Lorelai quickly put her worries aside and issued a challenge to Daisy.
'If I win, that's it.'
If you put one Daisy on top and make them keep fighting, it can become bullying.
If he won cleanly and faced the next challengers, there would be no problem. In the meantime, with the help of many people, he had improved his practical skills, so he would be able to beat Daisy!
So Lorelai challenged Daisy with confidence.
Huh?
"The winner is Daisy Parvan!"
The moment I thought that, I was defeated.
'What happened to you?'
Although it certainly started out as a basic magic battle, it was close combat that determined the winner.
A clash of magic and magic,
I took advantage of the gap in the moment and threw a small magic spell like a dagger.
The same goes for Daisy.
With such great magic canceled out, and even smaller magic canceled out, what was left was the frail body of a wizard.
To be exact, only one side was weak!
“No, this is...”
It's magic and testing, but why are you launching a human offensive?
With such protest, Lorelia looked at the test tube with an expression of injustice on her face.
Since they had already heard from the senior professor that the purpose was to increase practicality, the examiners simply shook their heads.
It was unfair.
It felt like all my efforts had gone down the drain.
The voice he naturally remembers.
-Honestly, I'm telling you that I should transfer to the engineering department?
The voice of a capable spy who helped him and gave him information about Daisy.
Because he was so competent, he gave really perfect information, but he paid less attention to the unreliable information, which was the cause of his disaster.
...It was about an hour ago that I decided that.
"It doesn't even make me feel wronged."
"...How do you overcome that?"
Lorelai and Marie formed a group of losers and looked at the examination room with their mouths wide open.
"The winner is Daisy Parvan."
Now even the test tubes look tired.
It was something even the examiners could not have predicted for one person to win 15 times in a row.
"You can actually handle all attribute magic."
"That's not the problem. With unlimited winners, what matters in the end is how well you control your pace, and that's cheating!"
No matter how great a wizard he was, he was ultimately an unfinished student of the Academy. That is why there were three things that McGregor wanted to teach his students in this exam.
The first is the experience of fighting various opponents.
The second is a practice of planning how to fight with a limited resource called magic power.
Finally, it forces you to face your own limitations and make the best of the situation, but...
“Ugh!”
Daisy had access to all types of magic and divine powers, as well as close combat skills.
On the subject of having an extraordinary amount of magical power, he even conserved his magical power to suppress any weaknesses with his physical strength.
“Okay then, next time.”
Until the next challenger appears, rest and heal yourself with divine magic.
“The next opponent is...”
By the time the next challenger came up, he was in perfect condition, as if he was fighting for the first time.
"...Should the prince just give up?"
So, the 29th game.
Seeing even the emperor's prince, Acid, being defeated by Daisy, Loreliya, who had been acting out of a sense of duty rather than love, seriously considered resigning from her role as the villainess
