The Rebirth of the Hero’s Party’s Archmage Chapter 70

Episode 70

The exam for Group A, which can be considered the advance team, has ended.

Even though more than 10 minutes had passed since the end, the hall was still buzzing with the lingering effects of the magic shown by the Group A cadets.

Not to mention the Madosegawa Eight Great Schools, the students of the 16 schools and the daughter of the Panton family also showed great skills.

“Heung, the more you look at the genius Confucius, the more interesting he becomes.”

It’s been a while since I overdid it. The beauty with curly chestnut hair smiled as she looked at Lane, who was sorting out his paper and pencils with his back soaked in sweat.

The desk and stool she was sitting on belonged to Hubert. Hubert, who was sighing while holding his forehead in the heartache of being eliminated from the preliminaries, raised his eyebrows.

“Get out of there before I rip that snout off, Nora.”

Her name, with a playful smile, is Nora Redon.

Although he had no contact with Lane until now, he was a person who continued to compete for the top position at the top level.

The smile disappeared from Nora’s face as she naturally licked her upper lip at Hubert’s threat.

“Is it really possible to do that with the skills of Hubert, who couldn’t even make it to the finals because he lost all the judges to the genius Confucius?”

Hubert’s eyes narrowed.

As the magical power of the two late exponents collided in the air, magical currents splashed here and there.

“… … What a bitch. Okay, just go.”

It was Hubert who first gained magic. Because I was too tired to express my emotions to anyone right now.

And it was best not to have anything to do with the Melev School, which was the only one of the eight schools whose magical goal was slaughter.

Then Nora smiled again as if she had never done that before. Suddenly, she got up from her desk and stool and turned around, waving her hand affectionately.

“Don’t be so upset, Hubert. “I will take good care of the genius Confucius in the finals♬”

While the disciples of 8 to 16 were having such sharp conversations, Lane was also talking while surrounded by his friends.

“Are you really sane to bring such ridiculous magic to the Scroll Exam?”

Christa asks with a puzzled expression. Lane just shrugged his shoulders.

“You just have to be careful next time.”

“You need to understand the seriousness of this! Damn it because I was lucky enough to pass! “During the exam period, you’re making this mistake because you’ve been playing around with girls, acting like tutors, and falling asleep!”

Although he was muttering, his expression was very bright, perhaps due to the fact that Lane Ludwig had entered the finals.

“ah! It’s noisy, really. “Be careful next time.”

On the other hand, Gertrude, who could be said to be a loser, sighed with a pessimistic face.

‘If I hadn’t been in the same grade as these people, I would have made it to the finals.’

Excluding the top 30 cadets who advance to the finals, the ranking of the final exam is determined by the number of scrolls consumed.

Here, Gertrude Panton’s sales volume is 66 copies, and unless something goes wrong, she will easily take 31st place.

On the other hand, Logan, which has only 18 chapters, has to do really well to be in the middle of the rankings… … .

“Does the world still not know the beauty of muscles? Or was my magic lacking?”

Logan muttered like this, completely unable to understand his defeat. Ilyin, a member of the Chayhak school, sold 58 scrolls.

“Hey, Logan! Aren’t you really screwed? I don’t think the Vice Dean will leave me alone… … .”

And Cassena Page is looking at such scenes from afar with envious eyes.

‘Can I join there someday?’

As if she had read her daughter’s thoughts from that expression, Madelia smiled and placed her hand on her head.

“There’s nothing to fret about, Kasena.”

“Joe, you didn’t show any signs of impatience? “What kind of idiot are you talking about? Hmph!”

By that time, the instructors were running around and ordering Group A cadets to leave the Yonghyeoljang. This is because the exam for groups B, C, D, E, and F must begin immediately.

“I’m just a little worried! “I wonder if I can do well.”

After seeing the skills of the top cadets, even more so… … Cassena’s hands were trembling as she struggled to get up on her crutches.

“What this test requires from cadets is not just the idea of ​​what kind of magic to use on the scroll.”

Looking down at the scenes from the stands, Runen, the mustachioed man from the Special Affairs Department, summed up his thoughts. She was very emotional as she had also taken the same test here before.

“I guess so. No matter how much you prepare magic suitable for the test, there are always variables that arise.”

Variables that arise in daily life were a difficult problem that wizards had to live with for the rest of their lives. Because it was the wizards who had to solve that variable.

‘So one of the most important talents for a wizard is the ability to deal with such variables.’

In practice, it is not as simple as a math problem. There are many cases where the answer and solution are not fixed.

There, Lane Ludwig proved it with an overwhelming performance. She knew that she was born with such aptitude.

Maybe that’s why, among this brilliant golden generation, it was Lane Ludwig who attracted the most attention.

“Chief, we need to bring in Lane Ludwig! Because we used multiple operations! “It will be a light of hope for our Horse Research Department!”

“With that momentum, I think I’ll definitely be able to reach the level of an archmage.”

“Send a big gift to Cavern Ludwig. Since I am a student, I like to look good to the head of the family. “Most descendants of powerful families follow the decisions of their head.”

That’s why I got a little goosebumps. Everyone here now has recognized the value of Lane through the performance he just showed.

But what about Doran Slade?

How did that person recognize Lane Ludwig’s aptitude even before he showed it? It must have even been before the midterm exams.

“Unfortunately, it doesn’t always get good attention. “It’s a privilege of the pinnacle.”

Runen said that and pointed to the southeastern stands with his chin. The big man wearing her suspicious hood was glaring at Lane Ludwig.

Any other magician would have thought he was just a strange guy, but the magicians of the special department, who had special intuition, were different.

This is because they have sharpened intuition as they have always hunted warlocks.

“That’s right.”

Tyrinthid, who had been watching his movements closely even before Runen, who was one year his junior, let out an irritated yawn and stretched.

“Mr. Ai, I thought you would take a break, but it’s already time to work again.”

* * *

“It’s a real page… … .”

“The rumors were true… … .”

“Where have you been and what have you been doing for the past 10 years?” … ?”

Unlike Group A, the late group consisted of a large number of cadets with low social attention, so most of the attention was focused on Cassena Page.

“I heard you transferred to along the way.”

“Then what level of skill do you have?”

Surprisingly, there wasn’t much antipathy.

Where is the Page family? Aren’t they the descendants that the founder of magic left behind on this land?

It was also an elite clan that had never failed to produce excellent wizards in the long history of the empire.

Not only are they skilled, but the influence they have had on the magic world so far is unrivaled. Any school or family.

“The biological daughter of the current Magic Alliance leader Madelia Page… … It’s obvious even if you don’t look at it. He must be an incredibly talented person. “Like Lane Ludwig, who pretended to be incompetent.”

However, the position of the cadets who watched Cassena for two weeks was different. One by one, they were starting to feel antipathy.

‘I don’t have any magical skills… … .’

‘Special inclusion based on family name… … .’

‘Hmph, it’s good to sell, yes…’ … .’

It goes without saying that Christa Warden was admitted at the top of her class on a regular basis, and even Lane Ludwig, who was famous as a genius, took the additional exam and was admitted, but what does that mean?

“Hmm, as expected, it doesn’t have a good reputation.”

In the cadet-only stands, Gertrude Panton, who was adept at reading the surrounding atmosphere, shook her head as if she felt sorry for herself.

“I thought you only got angry at Miss Christa about men. How many female students have you bewitched, Lady Confucius? “You get so much jealousy.”

“what?”

“I have problems with men?! “What do you mean?”

Lane and Christa raised their eyebrows at the same time. Christa looked quite embarrassed.

“Oh my, did I say something wrong? “It’s a problem related to Prince Lane.”

“Well, technically it’s not wrong! “Please don’t say things that people will misunderstand!”

It wasn’t until Gertrude was chased by Christa and disappeared that the surroundings became a little quiet. Logan came over and stood next to Lane.

“It certainly gets talked about a lot.”

“I have no choice but to endure it. “They’ll think you’re in that position even though you’re not qualified.”

Just like Rin did before… … . In that era, there were many GLaDOS (4-star) level wizards other than Lin who had extensive combat experience.

‘A representative example was Ulan Page, who reigned as one of the greatest wizards of that era.’

Rin, who had no experience or fame, and had only achieved a 4-star rank at a young age, became a member of the warrior party, so she was bound to become the target of countless antipathy.

Lin’s early actions were also proof of his worth. She said that she was a suitable person to be the archmage of the hero party… … .

‘Rista told me not to care, but how could I not care?’

Whenever I meet people who have made quite a name for themselves in the magic world, they glare at me as if they are going to eat me.

Ulan Page, who could be said to be the most dangerous competitor, was a great person and recognized Lin without much argument.

Come to think of it, I did owe a debt to the Page family back then… … . After Ulan recognized Lin, the number of people who were picky had decreased significantly.

“Well, then how about I try to scare you so that you don’t gossip behind my back?”

“Quit. “In fact, it will only have the opposite effect.”

Here, you have no choice but to prove yourself, Kasena. To me, it’s worth being here. That you are fully qualified.

[Test time is 90 minutes! Start calculating right now!]

As soon as Deputy Professor Kyle gave a command, the cadets assigned to each assigned seat began scribbling with brushes on parchment.

“Oh, Berni of the Ermont school draws a three-star magic square!”

“Wow, it looks like Krutis is planning to use a 2-star spell too.”

While receiving cheers from the audience, cadets enrolled in 16 middle schools drew a spectacular magic square.

“Then the Lady of the Page…” … Hmm?”

Thanks to Professor Kyle’s clairvoyance, Cassena’s desk was enlarged from the window floating in the air. The expressions on the faces of those who saw it with vague anticipation were different.

“hmm?”

“A magic square?”

“Sega’s descendants are only 1 star?”

Ordinary people and beginners in magic tilted their heads in confusion or sneered in disdain, but those with an understanding of magic had to blink their eyes in surprise.

“No, it’s not just one star. Look at the shape of that magic square! “It’s a trapezoid!”
