282 – How Are You (3)

Professors tend to categorize academy students into five categories.

A genius who works hard. Lazy genius. A fool who works hard. Lazy fool.

Lastly, the traveling bell. Among them, the most troublesome thing is the traveling bell.

Geniuses tend to take care of themselves if left alone, so there is no need to touch them. Moreover, there are many things that bend one’s pride.

On the other hand, idiots have extremely strong pride and why are they students at the academy? Most people question this.

Occasionally, an asshole who is far beyond an idiot pops up, but most of those types are expelled.

And the traveling bell is literally a traveling bell. A person who seems to be a genius but does stupid things.

The moment he is confident that he can control it, he makes a big mistake, and when he gets scolded for doing so, he becomes calm.

You could say it’s clever, but that’s not true. There are many cases where there is no malicious intent in one’s actions.

Sibar tends to be included here. A student who is neither a genius nor an idiot, but just commits eccentricities.

It’s clear that he’s a genius, but he does stupid things, and he’s too smart to be called a fool.

Even if you cause an accident, you know very well that it is your fault. Nevertheless, accidents happen every time.

A mysterious phenomenon that I could never hate, and the moment an accident occurred, it felt like the professors’ fault.

Moreover, he listens obediently to class and has a good attitude from the professors’ point of view.

“Hey. Look at this.”

“What is it?”

“The one Elvin wrote. It’s really standard, so I think it’ll do well.”

The long-awaited final exam day.

The professors looked at the theories written by the students and each shared a word or two.

As I said before, there were many different theories, and even here, we were able to classify geniuses and idiots to some extent.

Geniuses who are too brilliant think that it’s just a theory and they can just do it, while idiots think it’s bullshit.

From the professors’ point of view, these are very easy to grade. After giving a low score, you can see how the practice progresses.

“As expected from a KARA student, you wrote it really well. Isn’t this probably the highest point?”

Godin smiled happily and showed Kara’s theory to her professors.

The other professors also slowly her her theory her her her, nodding their heads as if they agreed with Godin’s opinion her her her her.

“Definitely. Maybe it’s because they are Tatars, but they are closer to soldiers than students.”

“I think this is the best in terms of efficiency. We can cause as little damage as possible.”

“He is basically a genius, but he also has experience, so it will be difficult to follow him in theory.”

Although it is a place where all kinds of geniuses gather, Kara’s theory stands out among them.

A theory that eliminates all unnecessary things and maximizes what is possible. It is the most ideal theory.

Of course, theory and practice are different. At that moment, Kara entered the testing room where the exam was being conducted.

The professors took turns looking at the colors and theories captured on the screen and began to grade them.

Click! Kwasik!

Kara’s breakthrough method was very simple. A style that excludes variables as much as possible and does everything.

It can be said to be an extremely efficient and safe method. If it’s KARA, it’s KARA-style.

The professors nodded their heads as they watched her practice. It’s perfect without a single flaw.

“It may be difficult to understand the ability to improvise.”

“Still, I should give it a high score. It means I looked into it carefully.”

Sarah refuted Lee Yeon-hwa’s words. There is a saying in the world.

If someone can do something easily, that person is really good at it.

On the outside, it would seem like Kara would break through too easily. But she is very good at it.

Eventually, as Kara broke through all her hurdles, her professors kept her score. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a perfect score.

“It stopped slightly at this part, didn’t it?”

“Yes. I guess I didn’t check it.”

“If I hadn’t been careful, there would have been a stalactite stuck in my head.”

No matter how much Kara tried, she couldn’t completely block her variables. There was a trap falling from above her head.

The trap was handled by Kara with her excellent improvisation, but from then on she knew that her plan had gone awry.

Still, it is the highest score among students who have taken the test so far. It is excellent without any fault.

“Next…”

“Luna is a student.”

She is Kara. She is the next most anticipated student. The professors looked at Luna’s theory paper.

[Sorry. I’m not good at writing, so I’ll do it as a practical exercise.]

“··· ···”

“··· ···”

“··· ···”

As soon as they saw Luna’s theory, the professors were at a loss for words.

It’s not that there aren’t such students sometimes. A student who is excellent at practical skills but very poor at theory.

In fact, it is difficult to even say that you are poor at theory, it is simply that you are not good at writing.

The type of person who understands everything in their head but cannot explain it to others. Most of them are ‘genius’ students.

“······How are student Luna’s grades these days?”

“It’s pretty average. Surprisingly, there were a lot of weak points in the writing.”

“The skill itself is improving day by day.”

Luna, who was at the top of her class at school, is still showing a steady upward trend in grades.

Aside from Kara, her experienced warrior, and Sivar, her traveling servant, she can be said to be unrivaled.

Also, the improvisation itself is not bad, so I have no choice but to give it a good score. This final exam is not good.

Sigh! Suddenly!

In fact, as soon as the test started, Luna broke through all the way.

Cut or dodge all projectiles flying at you with your sword, etc.

In particular, the biggest advantage was that the ‘body vision’ was very excellent, allowing immediate situational judgment.

“It wasn’t a lie to say that I would show you in practice.”

“But what about the score? There’s nothing you can do about it, right?”

“There are too many variables, so it’s a case of dealing with it physically.”

The final exam may seem easy at first glance, but it is quite difficult. First of all, as I’ve mentioned repeatedly, there are too many variables.

There are so many variables that it is very difficult to establish a theory, and even if one were to be established, it cannot be perfect.

It is common for unexpected events to occur and theories to explode. Therefore, we have no choice but to respond immediately every time.

And this is the professor’s strategy. It doesn’t matter if your score is low, most tests are relative evaluations, not absolute evaluations.

The professors each gave Luna a grade as she passed all of her gates. I think it will be difficult to get to the top because of the theory.

“Let’s see, the next one is…Sivar student.”

“It has arrived.”

After Luna, there is Shivarda. The professors looked like they knew what was coming.

Shivar is neither a genius nor an idiot, but a traveler. A case of being a genius, but often doing stupid things.

This is a case where your body is so good that you don’t use your brain. But recently, the eccentricity has doubled as people even use their brains.

“Huh? But why is Karasu a student…?”

“What?”

While reading the theory, Marlboro was started by Godin’s words. He hurriedly looked at the screen.

As Godin said, Karas is here, not Sivar. The order must have been specified correctly, but it’s strange.

“Could it be that a student of Karas is learning Sivar’s theory?”

“Oh. No way. That makes sense…”

[I will carry out Sivar’s theory on his behalf.]

Just as I was about to say that it didn’t make sense, Karasu on the screen spoke in his unique, confident voice

As always, with a smile that you can’t tell what’s inside. The professors couldn’t help but be dumbfounded when they saw that.

I don’t know if Sivar is executing someone else’s theory on his behalf, but is someone else executing Sivar’s theory?

Even the target is Karas. A case that seems to form parallel lines yet is strangely similar.

“······It’ll be okay, right?”

“If you’re doing it for me… It means you’re confident. Let’s check the theory first.”

I was anxious, but I checked the theory first. At the same time, the test was conducted.

[Once you start, immediately assassinate the enemy standing guard in front with a sword.]

Suddenly!

Kara carries out the first line verbatim. This was similar to other students.

At the entrance to the cave, there is a dummy on guard duty, and most of them start by assassinating him.

But the real problem begins here. Assassination is fine, but from then on, it is inevitable that you will be discovered.

[After eliminating it by assassination, pick up the oil bottle on the floor. Then throw it with a torch to attract attention.]

Click! Howling!

As Karas did as he did, a huge flame appeared on the wall where the torch was installed.

The dolls’ eyes had no choice but to turn towards the sudden fire. From then on, it started in earnest.

[Even though my attention is drawn, the crossbowman in front sees me. When a crossbowman shoots an arrow, simply dodge to the side.]

[The throwing soldier on the top right is eliminated by throwing an axe. After removing it, jump to where the thrower is. The thrower will have many oil bottles.]

[They throw three oil bottles at each person. Then it will slip due to the impact of the glass bottle and the oil.]

Karas was actually carrying out that ridiculous theory. It’s perfect, with nothing missing.

So it didn’t make any more sense. He deployed variables to create them, but instead used them.

From the professors’ point of view, it is not only excellent, but also shocking. I have no idea what the concept is.

[A poison bottle will come out of the box in front. It’s a very sticky poison. Throw this poison bottle at the crossbowmen above.]

“No. What do you keep throwing?”

“But are you really doing everything?”

The theory was absurd, but what was even more absurd was Karas, who was implementing it exactly.

I don’t think I practiced it separately, but I’m doing it very easily. He is even the crown prince of a country.

Although he may have honed his basic skills, he will inevitably be slightly inferior to others.

Nevertheless, there is only one thing that he is proceeding without any hindrance. It means that the theory is perfect.

[At this time, the crossbowman on the cliff will shoot me. In this case, a doll that has slipped on the floor is used. It would make a great shield.]

[For your information, just ignore the crossbowmen on the cliff and pass by. You will pass out on your own due to the fumes from the poison bottle you threw earlier.]

Fluttering-

Surprisingly, the smoke flowing from the poison bottle that had been thrown earlier knocked down the doll. The professors couldn’t help but be shocked when they saw this.

Originally, it was designed so that crossbowmen on the cliff could not be knocked down. Unless you use abilities like throwing.

However, Sivar easily destroyed it with the fumes of the poison bottle that had been thrown in advance. That too with a time difference attack.

[Finally, dolls holding swords will come running from behind, but you can just watch them quietly. They fell because of the oil they sprayed earlier.]

Kwadang!

In fact, the dolls slipped on the oil sprinkled on the floor. Karas also glanced at them and passed by.

[To finish, take the torch from the wall and throw it back. The entire cave will become a sea of fire.]

Grumbling!!

[How is it. It’s so easy, right?]

A spectacular finish follows. As stated in the theory, the entire cave became a sea of fire and began to burn black.

The professors could not help but be dumbfounded by the theory, which was so perfect that it showed the peak of efficiency.

“Um… “Everyone?”

“··· ···”

“The test site is on fire…”

“Uh, huh?”

“Oh, no!! Turn it off right away! Why doesn’t the fire extinguishing magic work?!”

“It broke down because I threw the oil bottle earlier! Bring in people right away!”

Today again, Sivar had a huge accident.

In fact, it was Karas, not Sivar, but he was the one who caused the accident anyway.

“How are you? Is it okay?”

“No. This doesn’t make sense…”

“Kara. I have to keep my promise. Surely you can’t?”

Either way, Sivar was busy putting pressure on Kara.
