Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 296. Magic School Academy Entrance Examination: Area Level C bag. 1
When Kino left along with the other participants, Kaito just kept quiet while waiting for the room where his exam was called.
He watched all the participants who were there.
"There seems to be no suspicious participants. But, so far, he's just a teenager who went with Kino and Ryou alone who's weird"
"They were stronger than the other participants and it seemed like they could quite be called as that figure..."
unfinished with his sentence, someone made a rowdy. From a distance, he appears to be a girl who is being approached by five Lizardmen.
"Beautiful, why are you two alone?"
"You're so cold. What room are you in?"
"We asked nicely but it seems that you guys are very perpetrators huh"
Kaito notices she's the girl who's in trouble.
"Isn't that what happened this morning accidentally hit me?"
Kaito approaches her and intends to help, but it seems that this is not necessary. "If you don't want to get out of the way, don't blame me if you get in trouble"
The girl who accidentally bumped into Kaito said with her cynical tone.
The lizardman group seemed to not accept the threat and tried to do something rude.
"How dare you say that!"
When her hands tried to hit her, the girls immediately kicked their legs and stomachs all the way down.
The uproar is getting worse.
"Whatis that? What's going on?"
"Why can you fight like that?"
Kaito just silently heard many other participants who approached and formed a circle.
Officers finally came and broke them all.
"What's this about? Why do you act like this before you fight?" ask a division member
One of the girls told the officers, "They acted disrespectfully and almost hit us. We just don't like to be bullied let alone try to play physically"
The officer looked at the lizardmen and approached them.
"You guys, is it true what the two girls said?"
"We just say hello but he kicked us!"
The girl who bumped into Kaito this morning immediately walked over to stare low at the lizardmen who were unable to stand up.
"How dare you make us scapegoats. Obviously you guys started first"
"Based on a cocky girl! You think you're great!" say one of the lizardmen
"so. Let's see if you can get away with this or not"
Kaito felt a familiar aura from the girl.
'His sharp eyes are like those used to killing, but I don't feel the killing aura around him'
'In addition, his kick movements were deliberately made avoiding a vital point. I don't think he wants to cause any trouble'
'The girls held themselves back. But those sharp eyes seemed eager to finish off the lizardman. Is that just my mind?' kaito murmured in the heart
Officers tried to make all the circumstances conducive again.
There was a voice coming from the front, an officer calling the other room participants.
"Examination Room 5 please come over here"
The other girl who was with the girl who hit Kaito left. More plausible, two of the lizardman group went with the girl.
"They're one group apparently" Kaito said slowly
The girl who hit Kaito approached her friend, "Rayel, if that's Lady's target..."
"I understand Virgo. I will kill him" whispered the girl named Rayel
Rayel goes to follow the officer to exam room 5 with the two lizardmen who have just disturbed him.
Now there were only a few participants left in the lobby.
The girl who was previously bullied by the lizardmen chose to walk and stay in a place not far from Kaito's current position.
"Pathetic. I hope I don't make them stop breathing later" he said
Kaito heard the grunt. The girl looked towards him.
"Why?" ask the girl
"I can only think that your attack was strong enough even though you were holding yourself back"
"What?" the girl was surprised. He did not believe what he heard. "What did you say?"
"I'm just impressed that you and your friend refrained from harming him. Are you trying to avoid trouble?"
The girl thought to herself, 'He knows I weakened the kick earlier so as not to cause trouble? Who her? '
'I don't want to kill useless people because of small things. There's a task waiting and it's more important than something as trivial as it was'
'I didn't think anyone would notice. I can see he's strong'
Kaito watched him, 'He watched and tried to analyze what I was like. It seems that the perspective he has is pretty good'
"Why? Is there something strange about me?" Kaito tried to break the silence
"No. Oh yeah, you were the one this morning, right? Which I accidentally hit"
"really"
"Ah, forgive the impoliteness that I did. My name is Virgo"
"Kaito"
The girl shook Kaito's hand. Virgo, the girl who has sharp and secret eyes finally meets and gives an impression on Kaito.
'He's strong' in Kaito's mind
"Examination Room 7 please come over here"
The two heard the call and both said, "That's my exam room"
"What?"
"Eh? You're in room 7, too?" ask Virgo
"really. Player number 89" Kaito said
"so. I'm number 108"
"I think we should go now"
Kaito and a girl named Virgo walk with another troupe.
There was no conversation between them but it seemed, the two people were observing each other around.
Another unexpected thing is, the lizardman who previously disturbed Virgo turned out to be one room with them.
"Cih, what a shitty fate. I think I should have shut their mouths if I knew about a room with those ugly lizards"
"......" Kaito. He was quite shocked to hear the girl beside him could grumble like Ryou.
Even in his shadow now, Kaito imagined the female version of Ryou when he saw her.
'Why have I never met a gentle and polite person like Kino?'
'Theo, Xenon and now a girl named Virgo. They seemed to be Ryou's identity who had split his soul'
'If I told 'that man' when all this journey was over, he'd say I wouldn't marry a good woman'
It seems that Kaito and his encounter with someone is so predictable.
Arriving at the door of the room, the door opened and the selection examinees saw a very unusual thing.
Inside the room, they found a man standing with two swords at his waist and two young men accompanying him.
The young man began to say his words.
"Welcome to the Magic School Academy's admissions selection exam. You're the 90 participants I'm going to test"
"I'll act as an examiner this time. My name is Mark Vermillion"
Kaito was surprised by what the young man said.
'That student as well as the strongest person in the Magic School Academy, the present Marquis Vermillion'
Not only Kaito, it seems that the girl named Virgo also looks pale.
'Why at this time actually meet with Artifact users?! If he realizes who I am then all our master's plans will fail'
Mark looked at all the participants. His eyes turned a fiery red and he looked expressionless.
"You're all inside the [Level C Area] exam room, where everything is allowed"
"Weapons, magic and other things were released here. The system is one-time matches are absolute. If you lose, you will be declared a failure"
"The mark on your hand will disappear once you are deemed to have failed the test"
"Here, physical weapons, natural abilities, magic weapons and everything is allowed"
"It is forbidden to commit murder or life-threatening magic because it will be directly on our blacklist"
"Participants are allowed to withdraw before starting if you feel inadequate"
"There is no ban on taking the exam and you can try again next year"
"There is no tolerance for cheating. If you commit an offence, you will be considered dead and will be banned from taking this exam again the following year"
"By my side is a test supervisor who will take strict care of you. Fraudulent acts and others will be directly judged by them"
"My job is just to test you, the rest is the responsibility of these two people"
It seems that everyone understood Mark's explanation well. The examiner said something again.
"In this area, you'll be fighting in a duel tag fight"
"Duel tag?"
Many wonder about it.
"Tag duels are a team fight. You are free to go forward with anyone and any amount"
"The rule is to defeat the opponent. If half of your team loses, then that one team I declare dead"
"The "team must consist of at least 3 people. The maximum number is unlimited"
Everyone seemed to understand but was also confused.
One of the participants asked.
"What about our opponent? If they're more than us and we're outnumbered, isn't that unfair?"
"Hmm? What the hell does that mean? Who do you think your opponent is?" mark asked casually without expression
"So..I mean is–"
"Don't get me wrong, young man. Your opponent is in front of your own eyes"
"What?"
"I'm the examiner so it's obvious your opponent is me"
Everyone was surprised to hear it. It was not unusual considering the examiners themselves who said that this was a team fight.
Normally people will think that one team with another will fight.
'That's a one-on-a-many name' Kaito said in his heart
Mark said something.
"Although it's said to be a team fight, if you can't make me acknowledge you then it will be a one-sided slaughtering ground"
"It is better to choose a strong friend so that you do not immediately I beat easily"
