Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius - Chapter 62
Episode 62:
Everyone was shocked.
How long has it been since the sparring began?
No, the word ‘it has begun’ has become meaningless.
Clearly, it was the graduate who attacked first.
I casted the magic before the mana orb ran out and finished casting as soon as the mana orb ran out.
It was a fast casting that took less than 3 seconds.
But that speed puts it to shame.
“What happened?”
“What the hell happened!”
The graduate collapsed without being able to use the magic that had been cast.
There was no reaction or counterattack.
In the eyes of the cadets, even the teachers did not see Raymond’s movements.
What they saw was the mana sphere falling and the wizard casting it at incredible speed.
And before the magic could be used, the magic circle shattered and the wizard fell.
And before we knew it, Raymond had moved behind the wizard and was pointing his sword at the graduates.
“What on earth!”
“Why did you suddenly collapse?”
The cadets and teachers were greatly embarrassed.
I thought there would be at least some conflict.
Even though Raymond should win, I thought he would still struggle a little.
It is a fight between a swordsman and a wizard.
When a wizard and a swordsman spar, they start with a sufficient distance.
In that case, unless there is a significant difference in skill, the wizard will win.
If you block the attack with a shield or barrier and push back with overwhelming firepower, the swordsman will be helpless.
In particular, cadets who could not use Aurors could not compete with fellow wizard cadets.
But what does this mean?
“Has Chaha-neun lost now?”
“He’s the head of the Ministry of Magic. But how…”
Moreover, the fallen wizard was the head of the Academy’s Magic Department.
Among the cadets who are all in the 2nd circle, he is the only man who made it to the 3rd circle.
Although he wasn’t as good as Beatrice, he was still considered a genius at the academy.
Since he fell without being able to attack properly, the shock was enormous.
I had no intention of wasting time.
I don’t know if you’re strong or polite enough to cross swords with me.
There was no reason for me to act nice to those who showed me their will.
I decided to thoroughly crush them.
I will never allow you to argue with me again, or even dare to look up at me.
“Let’s proceed quickly.”
After bringing the still dazed referee to his senses, I returned to my seat.
Only then did the referee come to his senses and quickly proceeded with the sparring.
“I will be different from the previous one.”
“Your sword has already figured it out!”
“My magic doesn’t break that easily!”
“die!”
The graduates were full of confidence and enthusiasm when they arrived.
He rushed at me with the intention of somehow defeating me.
However, I don’t have the strength to achieve anything if I have the will to do so.
I have no intention of wasting my time in this useless sparring.
So, I finished it all in one go.
At some point, the only sound inside the gym that disappeared was the sound of my fist.
After all the sparring, the principal who had been watching near the sparring hall came up to the sparring hall.
“We hereby announce that Raymond Millennium has met all qualifications to become a graduate.”
The principal must have had similar thoughts as I did, so he made me a graduate on the spot.
There would have been royal approval anyway, so he didn’t feel the need to take any more time.
“Congratulations. “It was done as you wished.”
I shrugged my shoulders at the principal’s words.
Honestly, I had no idea I would skip a grade so quickly.
Still, I thought it would take a year.
Thanks to the principal’s intervention, that time was reduced by half.
“Then I will go back.”
I decided to listen to Ellis about what I needed to do as a graduate.
The principal grabbed my shoulder and asked why I was so anxious.
I slapped the hand away and looked up at the audience.
‘The back of my head is sore, it’s killing me!’
I felt like someone was watching me.
From the start of the sparring until the principal makes the announcement.
It was a gaze so intense that it felt as if my cheeks would pierce.
At first, I thought they were cadets sitting in the stands.
However, as time passed, his gaze became more explicit and I became more and more concerned.
‘has disappeared.’
As soon as I turned my head to find those eyes, the feeling of eyes on me disappeared.
In an instant, even its presence disappeared, as if it had never existed in the first place.
I don’t know who it is, but if they’re so blatantly staring at me.
I thought he would definitely come find me later.
Unless I had some business to do, it was impossible for me to look at him like that.
However, since it wasn’t about living, I decided not to pay much attention to it.
“They say you have to wear a graduate badge and can move classes.”
When I returned to my dorm, Ellis recited what I should do as a graduate in the future.
“But they say that if you don’t want to, you can stay in your existing class and use the private training center. It is said that up to three cadets who are not graduates can be taken to the training center. And…”
The privileges given by the academy to graduates were enormous.
From luxurious classes where only graduates are gathered to private training centers.
They even hired a famous chef for the meals.
The graduates were enjoying such treatment that it would not be strange to say that they ate better than most nobles.
‘Is this why everyone tried to become graduates?’
Actually, since he’s doing this well, he’s probably going to graduate from the academy.
Who wouldn’t mind being able to enjoy most of the academy’s facilities and live like a noble?
Rather, it was humans who worked hard to enjoy even a little more.
“They say the graduation ceremony will be held in the main auditorium in a month.”
Plus, there aren’t many days left until graduation.
For me, where an hour is like gold, it was a very welcome sound.
This meant that I had more time to prepare and prepare.
After I became a graduate, people who messed with me disappeared.
Even fellow graduates stayed away from me and did not want to approach me.
I was able to have such a sweet time.
***
Graduation day.
On this day, the biggest festival held at the Academy was held.
It was the day to send off the Academy’s proud graduates, and it was also the day when the city’s festival was held, signifying the end of the year.
Maybe that’s why the city and the academy were full of laughter for the first time in a while.
And there was another slope.
“Hey. “Did you hear that?”
“The crown prince is coming to this graduation ceremony!”
It is said that members of the royal family who never came before will attend this graduation ceremony.
And the crown prince.
The current crown prince was a person supported by the people.
He had some ability and was often shown to be generous.
In addition, he had enormous power that was incomparable to that of other royal families.
I heard that such a person is coming to the academy.
Of course, it was not surprising that the Academy was nervous.
Even I couldn’t figure out why he wanted to come to this place.
‘In the original, the crown prince never left the capital.’
In the original work, the crown prince did not leave the capital unless there was something major that shook the country.
The capital was the safest, and they also had to protect their positions from other royal families.
And as a result, he was killed by the protagonist.
“Why is the crown prince…”
This was a problem that should not be thought about easily.
Meeting royalty can be an opportunity, but it can also be poison.
Depending on what I do, things can go from extreme to extreme.
‘It would be better if she came.’
The crown prince was not a very good person.
At least it’s not enough to have my back.
Rather than entrusting your back to him, it would be better to entrust it to someone else who is a member of the same royal family.
“I heard that no other royals are coming except the crown prince?”
“yes. So far, that is the case.”
If she had come, it would have been a different story.
But it’s true that she isn’t coming. This is a time when she is particularly weak and powerless even among the royal family.
It’s even weirder that she came here.
‘Ha, I feel a bit uncomfortable for some reason.’
I wasn’t happy that the Crown Prince, who wasn’t supposed to move, was moving.
I faced the upcoming graduation ceremony, trying hard to shake off the feeling of discomfort.
All graduates gathered in front of the academy.
And cadets were standing outside the red carpet spread at the academy.
The entrance of the carriage stopped in front of the red carpet opened, and two knights next to it held their spears and looked straight ahead.
Wow!
Amid the shouts of the cadets, a man appeared inside the carriage. The crown prince, with flowing blond hair, was waving to the people gathered at the academy as soon as he got off the carriage.
Felice Serion entered the academy.
It was when he entered the academy with the knights and everyone tried to follow him in.
Unlike the Crown Prince’s carriage covered in gorgeous gold decorations, a simple white and neat carriage stopped in front of the academy.
The entrance to the carriage with only the driver and driver opened and a woman appeared.
“…!”
A golden-eyed woman with long blonde hair neatly organized.
Unlike the crown prince, who wore a fancy uniform with expensive jewels, she wore a simple white dress without any accessories.
Rather, the dress supported her beauty.
“hello.”
The girl I thought would never come.
An unlucky princess who was born as the eldest daughter of the royal family but has no influence or power.
But Daria Serion, who had overcome all that and thrived, was smiling at me.
***
The graduation ceremony begins.
The crown prince himself knighted the graduates.
And the first princess Daria Serion was in charge of appointing an official wizard.
The wizards could not hide their disappointment.
He was jealous of the prosecutors who were appointed by the crown prince, who was now expected to be the king.
Unlike the crown prince, who was the powerful figure in the royal family, the first princess who appointed them an official wizard was no different from a falling leaf.
But I actually envied them like that.
Because the crown prince looked at me with a particular burden, and I had no desire to become friends with him at all.
Rather, I wanted to become close to the first princess.
Because it has already been proven through the original work that she has abilities.
However, unlike him, the crown prince became king without any interference, lost his kingdom to the protagonist, and was killed.
The thing is, I don’t really have any special abilities.
“Raymond Millennium please come forward.”
So my turn came.
I walked confidently and stood in front of the crown prince.
The crown prince, whose height was similar to mine, smiled meaningfully at me.
And he spoke softly to me.
“Are you that Raymond Millennium?”
“I am honored that you recognize me.”
“It’s very different from what I heard.”
I want to talk separately. The crown prince looked at me with a grin on his face.
