39 – That Person (1)

When my avatar escaped Ivan’s room and captured Simon and Iaco, my body was still in the ‘Military Self Defense’ class. Were participating

“I know that all of you have the ability to do one strand. However, no matter how talented a person is, life is about dying in an instant. This ‘Military Self-defense’ is a class designed with the goal of enabling you to overcome even if you encounter such a situation!”

Right now, in front of me, Markus, a boisterous muscle mass and first-year professor of ‘Military Self-defense’, was explaining the importance of this class.

Although he does not have a territory, Marcus Magnamat, a war hero who showed overwhelming majesty in the civil war 20 years ago as the current Emperor’s confidant.

A professor who is a favored subject of the current emperor, but wants to devote himself to the empire, so he teaches ‘combat self-defense’ at the academy.

Even the academy students, who tend to eat raw meat when they go outside, were just quietly listening in front of him without making any noise.

“According to the will of His Majesty, the first emperor who founded the academy, all academy students must take this ‘Military Self-defense’ course. If you do not participate in class or your participation attitude is not good, you will be expelled from the academy under the judgment of this professor. So, I hope that everyone will actively participate in this class!”

Even in a world where superpowers exist and power dominates, to put combat and sparring as compulsory subjects in the academy….

What the hell is the first emperor doing?

From noble mtl dot com

“However, it is impossible for all freshman academy students to participate in this class at once. Therefore, the class is divided into three groups: Alpha, Beta, and Gamma. You are the alpha group expected to have the highest fighting power in the academy admission process. You can be proud of it.”

In [Deus Ex Machina], The class of ‘combat self-defense’ consisted of a total of three groups and was also divided by level. Even though other classes do not have the concept of ‘class’, this ‘combat self-defense’ class is the only one that has the concept of ‘class’.

In the first place, the purpose of nobles coming to the academy was as a means to satisfy and motivate this honor, as the honor of being a noble is the greatest.

However, unlike commoners, nobles do not take entrance exams. For this reason, commoners are divided into classes according to the results of the entrance exam, but in the case of nobles, the academy randomly assigns classes according to their parents’ title or family.

In [Deus Ex Machina], The player-controlled Dia passed the entrance exam with a pull-up, so she was assigned to the Gamma class, the lowest class.

Of course, the class changes every semester through the midterm and final exam scores.

The process of starting from the lowest level, the Gamma class, and rising to the Alpha class through growth and testing gave gamers a lot of pleasure.

But why do I see familiar pink and yellow hair among the students in front of me?

While listening to Professor Marcus’ explanation, the students in Alpha Class were lined up in rows.

And I was in the middle, and I saw Amy and Dia in the front row listening to Marcus nervously.

Amy is a character that did not appear in [Deus Ex Machina], So even if you say she is….

Why is Dia here? She passed the entrance exam with excellent grades?

What happened?

“In the future, there will be countless fights and maps! Today is just an orientation class, so I want to do just one sparring!”

That’s right, first couples.

In [Deus Ex Machina], In the first class of Gamma class, Marcus called two students by name and had them fight.

They’ll probably have the Alpha and Beta classes where I’m at now do the same.

Perhaps there, Dia, who defeated Kronia’s golem and caused a sensation in the academy, became the subject of that name…….

… Uh? Come to think of it, defeating Kronia this time…… I go?

“Luke Persleyno. Come forward!”

It was me. That’s right.

“I heard that two days ago, she smashed Kronia’s golem and drew out her true heart. Hey To destroy Kronia’s golem. That’s difficult even for veteran knights and wizards! It reminds me of a siren student who graduated now! Ha ha ha ha ha. I want to see your skills in person! Come out and show me your power.”

…… It’s a part that can’t be helped as long as you’ve decided to reveal your strength.

It’s not as strong as Siren’s sister. I don’t know if Ignis stays while spending his divinity, but without Ignis…….

Continuing my thoughts, I walked out in front of Marcus.

“Now, is there any student who wants to compete with Luke? I haven’t had a chance to see the strength of other students yet, so I don’t know the current freshman’s skills, but when the current sophomores just entered, there was no student stronger than Luke. No one has ever achieved such a feat against Kronia.”

But no one raised their hand.

It’s strange.

Among the students over there, there are guys who are s*xually active and people who like to be on top of others, but they don’t step out?

If you came out and beat me now, wouldn’t it be best to make your name known throughout the academy? What’s up with those idiots?

“Hmm… …. Is everyone scared? I didn’t know that freshmen could be so lacking in ambition.”

You said you were scared? No way. Those guys, as far as I know, weren’t afraid of the professor. Those who looked frightened when Siren sister came……. Is that so!

Sister Siren!

She is Siren’s older sister’s younger sister, but at the same time, she overwhelms the Golem of Cronia. Did they mistake her for a powerful person of her class?

…… Are there enough possibilities?

Then, it is understandable to some extent that no one steps forward. Only the beta class or gamma class would have a hero who would step up and challenge a strong Siren sister class.

“It’s disappointing, cowards. I am a freshman like you, but I do not have the courage to ask for sparring. Good night. Then, Professor Bon has no choice but to call the second student he was expecting. Dia. Dia students forward.”

…… Dia? The dia I know?

Hearing her name, I looked up at Dia in surprise, and her eyes met hers.

Then, blushing, she slowly walked out to Marcus.

“Academy entrance exam. The top of this freshman entrance exam. The guy who was in charge of the entrance exam did not spare high praise. He has high expectations from you too. I want you to show me a good couple.”

I never thought Dia could have won first place in the entrance exam. She’s the real She’s what happened before that.

Following Marcus’ instructions, the two of us stood facing each other at a distance for sparring.

The other students, in danger of being caught, were seated in the stands at some distance away.

“Dia. I didn’t know that from the first day she would be able to fight like this. With you too.”

“Me too… not! Me too…. I couldn’t believe that the two of us would start sparring.”

To what extent?

I don’t know how good Dia is, but she has the confidence to win.

Like Siren noona, I can’t beat a strong player outside the standard, but I can beat an average student at the academy level without Ignis.

But if you do your best and win in an instant, Dia might get hurt….

Um……. I wonder if sparring in moderation is good.

“I know you are very strong. It was enough to overwhelm Professor Kronia’s golem. He is probably much stronger than me.”

Dia, who couldn’t make eye contact with me properly, started looking straight into my eyes as if she had decided something on her part.

“But… But I also have something to accomplish at this academy. Because I have to repay him.”

That person? There’s no way Dia can have someone who can be called that person.

“So I will do my best! For him!”

What kind of guy is that? Some guy took my dia. I deliberately didn’t meet her before entering the academy, but who dares to meet Dia!

“Both sides ready!”

Cried Marcus, who stood between the two of us.

Ching

The shape of the bracelet that Dia was wearing on her arm changed and became a dark blue sword.

Her As she gripped her sword, a ring of her water created around her.

Mermaid Haup’s sword, ‘Huffness’?

I see. Did someone who hadn’t heard or seen it give it to Dia?

A magic sword that allows you to control water.

With that sword, it makes sense that Dia would gain enough power to rank first in her entrance exam.

But. But what bastard dares! Dare to touch Dia!

“Start!”

The moment Marcus lowered his hand, Dia was shot at me like a bullet.

“Haaa!”

Dia swung her sword at me, but it ricocheted off her pre-set shield.

“Kuk!”

A shield that reflects part of physical force. That counter-resilience caused Dia to let go of her groan, but three powerful streams of water sprang from behind her, pounding her shield.

Then.

The shield is broken.

“I did it!”

Water drops spread in a spherical shape at the same time the shield was broken.

I see. While hitting the shield with the sword, the water from the sword secretly covered the shield.

Then, through the water surrounding the shield, he found a weakness in the shield and pierced it with a stream of water.

She’s only seen my shield once before, but she’s got this level of strategy.

Did Dia have such an excellent fighting sense?

In [Deus Ex Machina], I controlled Dia, so I didn’t have to see her senses.

“Yap!”

Breaking her shield, she lunged at me again.

This time, she wrapped her fists in water and assumed the shape of a gauntlet.

It seems that he did it so as not to hurt me.

Something soft.

Did you think I was a powerless wizard without a shield?

Quaang

Dia lost her consciousness and collapsed.

I took it as it was before I fell to the floor, and my Dia was held in my arms.

Sorry Dia. The shield was just to check how good you were.

I didn’t want to make him lose in vain like this.

Because something important happened.
