Chereads / The Author Is Speechless / Chapter 45 - First place

Chapter 45 - First place

The whole class became quiet after they saw Viktor's face. He was already on the billboard outside the school, but his real appearance was way more handsome than they saw.

"Isn't that Viktor who scored the first place with 75 marks?"

"Yes, I saw his picture on the billboard in front of the academy. So many people were waiting for his interview but no one saw him getting inside the academy"

"I know right? I bet he's from a wealthy noble family."

"No, he doesn't have a last name. He's a commoner!"

A girl stood up and screamed. 

"How dare a filthy commoner sit here with us? Get him out of here!!"

She screamed at him without even knowing the rules of the academy. Suddenly, another elf girl stood up and said,

"Don't you know the rules of this academy? We don't have any authority to use our family status as a political weapon here."

"Hey!! I'm the princess of Genret Kingdom! How dare you talk to me like that! Guards!!! Take her away!"

The whole class laughed out loud by listening to her charting.

The elf girl laughed and said,

"Don't you know the whole class is under vision surveillance orb? The thing you just said is so sensitive here. Have a safe trip back to your kingdom princess. I hope we can have a tea party during the summer vacation."

The teacher entered the class and immediately kicked the princess out of the academy by force because she broke the main 4 rules of the academy.

Now she can't even enter the academy for the rest of her life.

*Mic check! Mic check! Hello, good morning dear students from so many kingdoms. I am 002 and I will be in charge of your mana test exam. Please be prepared and don't be nervous. It's a small test to check whether you're qualified to become a student of this academy or not. Please take out your tags and follow me. I will take you to the training ground of this academy.*

"Finally!"

Beldorth stood up and asked Viktor to take a walk together and he accepted with a bright smile.

When I first saw those elves, they were covering their mouth and nose with their handkerchief. And when they saw me, they walked close to me without covering their face as if they were comfortable around me. Some of them even tried to have a conversation with me but they were shy.

I should talk with them when I'm done with the examination. Especially the girl, she seems so curious about me.

Viktor walked all the way to the training ground by looking at the architectural structure of the buildings. 'I remember writing a small detail about the academy because it had no connection to my story. I only mentioned it when the 1st male lead's brother failed the exam and the female lead killed him because he was getting in her way. He's a very important character in my story. So I can't mess up with him.'

Hah! No matter how much I think about it, this academy is way too peculiar compared to the other schools. Because they erase the memory of a student who failed or got expelled so that they can't describe what the school looks like. 

I wasted a pearl to erase a memory of a ground of people and they are doing this casually to thousands of students. I really need to find out their secrets.

"Hey, where are you from?"

"I'm from this kingdom."

"Wow, you're really lucky. I heard that they don't take in any students from their own kingdom."

"Well, here I am walking towards the training ground."

The group of students went inside the training ground and saw scarecrows in the middle of the field. It was prepared for the attack test. 

*Everyone please gather on the field and cast the most powerful spell you can. Then we will measure your circle with a testing orb.*

"This is my time to shine!!"

Beldorth volunteered to go first and he made his best attack magic spell to make his target exposed. Just like that, a huge fireball landed on the scarecrow and destroyed the other scarecrow around him. It was a mess.

*Candidates name: Beldorth Alexes. You are too reckless. Next, 'x'.*

So, the reason why those scarecrows were close was because the school wanted to see how good we are with our attack magic. We have to eliminate the enemy carefully so that his surroundings don't get caught in the magic attack. We have to kill while we save.

*Next, Viktor. Please come to the training ground.*

"Yes." 

So, how will I act now? I can't use spell less magic here if I don't want to become a test subject.

Viktor walked in front of his scarecrow and acted like he mumbled his spell before his magic circle appeared on his hand. And then he screamed…

"Ice Arrow!!!" 

The scarecrow was perfectly defeated with 3 arrows on its head, chest and abdomen. It was a perfect hit. But,

Urgh!! I'm dying from the attack of Ultra Cringe. Ice Arrow? Are you kidding me? It's not some typical anime where the mc screams their attack's name. I want to hide under my blanket right now. 

Urg!! Adonis!! Where are you!!

Suddenly, the ground of students clapped their hands to cheer him up. It was so perfect that the teacher was also surprised to see him make a perfect attack.

In the end, Viktor went home with another victory and a first-place congratulating gift. He was so exhausted that he forgot that he became history's first student to score 75.

Because the toppers can get not more than 40.

Viktor opened the door to his house and said,

"Adonis, I am back home."

But there was no response.

"Adonis?"

-Where did that lightbulb go?

He put his gifts inside his left crest and went into the kitchen to see if he was there.

"Adonis?"

"Congratulations master!!!!" 

Adonis was standing beside the table full of his favourite dishes.
