Chapter 165: 161

"On behalf of the new students, I would like to thank you for conducting such a grand entrance ceremony amidst the dancing cherry blossoms in spring."

This would be the usual custom at a Japanese school. Unfortunately, however, there are no cherry blossoms in this world, and instead, a blossom named "White Feather" has become a synonym for spring. As the name suggests, it is a magnificent and majestic broad-leaved tree with beautiful petals like white angel's wings.

The sight of them decorating the main street running through the center of the academy like rows of cherry trees was so beautiful that it made me, a member of the Special Division and a future "Northern General," feel glad to have enrolled in the academy without a trace of anxiety about my future.

The prestigious academy, which is located in the center of the imperial capital but has one of the most extensive grounds in the country and nurtures talented young men and women who will be responsible for the future of the empire, has a tradition of having elite students who have successfully passed the multiple selection process pass through the gates every year wearing brand new uniforms, with expectations that are soaring and a little anxiety in their hearts. Of course, the current students also welcome the new students.

And it is no wonder that the Academy of Magic is one of the four major graduate academies in the empire. The way in which the senior students welcomed the new students was also far from ordinary.

". What is multi-connected Magic?"

 

"And it's multiple wavelength tuning. It's a magic academy, with a level of skill beyond compare."

"I know it's difficult, but is it really that difficult?'

"Yes, it is. The magic power with different wave lengths must be interlocked to form a single magic formula. It's different from magic that is controlled by a single person."

"Hmm."

"Would you understand if I said it's like building a precision instrument with several people sharing the manufacturing process?"

"Ah!　I am very satisfied with the answer. It is true that it would be quite difficult unless you have all the skills and can communicate smoothly with each other."

"That's what I meant."

Diamond dust, shining in the sunlight even though it is springtime, is dancing in the sky, and rainbow-colored lights are adding color to it, and a big firework is shot into the sky. The fireworks were a beautiful welcome to the magical illusions, but they all required a great deal of skill to pull off.

'Is that the statue of the Dean ......?"

"It seems so. It is a huge ...... statue, though.'

"It's powerful, but it's poor taste."

the statue of the school president, which is a huge statue that seems to have been built (probably specially) in the middle of the schoolyard. Looking at it, I couldn't help but be reminded of the statues of Stalin and Lenin that had been erected in Eastern European countries in my previous life.

　I prayed that the educational philosophy of the headmmaster was not ideological, and I was relieved to learn from the sight of the faculty members looking on that the giant statue of the headmaster was apparently a welcome commemorative work, almost a prank by the student volunteers. It seems that there will be no class warfare in the institute.

"Hal, we should head to the main hall . We need to get ready to greet the students."

"Oh ...... that's right. I don't want to do it. ......"

I was the top student in this year's entrance examination for the Imperial Academy of Magic. I got a very high score of 91 points in the class, but the perfect score of 150 points in the practical skill test was particularly significant. The result was 241 points, which was the highest score of all time, far ahead of the second place and lower. He was the undisputed first runner-up.

　Surprisingly, the runner-up was not Lily, but His Imperial Highness Prince Friedrich, the third prince. The score was 135 points for practical skills with 95 points for classroom lecture. The total score was 230 points. It seems that His Royal Highness excelled in both classroom studies and practical skills.

　Lily came in third place. She scored 94 points in classroom studies and 132 points in practical skills, for a total of 226 points. Although she did not do so well in the combat exam, she seems to have made up for it in other areas. In particular, he received high marks for space-time magic. If the year were any other year, he would have passed at the top of his class.

　In fourth place was Eleonora, the brilliant daughter of the Huber family. She scored 221 points, just behind Lily. However, while her score on the class test was only a modest 79 points, her score on the practical test was a very impressive 142 points. If it was only the practical test, she would have been second in her grade, a result that could not be underestimated.

　The last of the top five students who receive special attention every year is, surprisingly, the last one. Hans, a fellow student who shared the same pot of food in the Forest, scored a total of 208 points. His total score of 208 points was slightly lower than the other four, but considering that the average score was less than 20% and the minimum passing score was 50%, his score was quite high. Considering that the average score is less than 20% and the minimum passing score is 50%, the score is quite high. It seems that he is not aiming to become a member of the court mage division. I wish him and Werner the best of luck.

　Incidentally, I won the first place in the comprehensive and practical skills test, but Mei won the first place in the class test. She called that extremely difficult exam "just like that. I asked her how high she must have scored on the exam, and she told me that she had scored a perfect score of 100 points. There must have been some hopelessly difficult questions that were clearly discarded, but it seems that even those questions were a piece of cake for Mei. What a horrible child!

　On the other hand, she did not do so well on the practical skills test, scoring 89 points. She scored 21 points in the combat test and 18 points in the basic magic test, but she still managed to score 89 points, which is more than 50% of the borderline. The reason why he was able to get a score above 50%, even though he scored 21 points in the combat exam and 18 points in the basic magic exam, seems to be because his engineering magic, which is his strong point, was highly rated. People with some strengths win. It was also an exam that proved that point.

　I've made a long-winded preamble, but the bottom line is that I passed at the top of my class and now I have a greeting to give to the new student body as the new student representative. I thought, "Why don't you do it, Prince?　But the Academy of Magic is known for its academic culture of mercilessly rejecting even royalty and aristocrats if their abilities are not up to the mark. It was futile to expect them to be disciplined according to their position and status.

　Well, what is it? In other words, there was no escape. I have no choice but to give up and be angry.

　　　　　✳︎︎

Now, . Eberhard Karlheinz von Flensburg-Fahrenheit, valedictorian rep of the new students. Greetings."rep of

　The MC calls my name and I go up on the stage. The auditorium was filled with a grim atmosphere, but at this moment there was a slight murmur as the new faces of the school appeared on stage.

"Is that the head of this year's competition ......?"

"He says it's Farenheit. The "Northern General's son " is really something else."

"Have you heard?　The identity of the "silver comet" that has been the talk of the town for a few years now. It seems to be him!"

"I saw him at the practical exam., silver armor that lived up to the rumors!　I wonder how much magic power he has to do something like that. ......"

"I'd love to be able to study at the same class as that guy"

"I'd love to get close to him.　But he's a nobleman, isn't he?"

"Come on, ....... But I heard that one of the students of the Department of Magical Research, who was at the top of class, is a friend of his , even though she seems to be a commoner.

"Oh, ....... Then maybe he's not the usual haughty aristocrat."

　I hear a few comments here and there trying to get a glimpse of what kind of person I am, but it's all right. I'm a average ex-Japanese. ......!

　If it were an anime or manga, I would have dared to say here, "I'm not like you fools! But at the entrance ceremony of the Academy of Magic, which is said to be the epitome of the social world, I don't want to do anything stupid that could ruin my life. I take a paper with text I had written at home while consulting with Hendrik, the head butler, and began to read it, making sure to speak as clearly and lively as possible so as to appear like a good-looking young man.

..."......... warm breezes were bringing the buds of the white feathers into full bloom, and all 100 of us new students were able to successfully complete our exam at the Imperial Academy of Magical Arts. Thus, we were able to safely face the entrance ceremony of the Imperial Academy of Magic. I would like to thank everyone for such a wonderful ceremony today."

　No one is a fool to make enemies by saying bad things. Such things are only for the world of fiction.

　There was no room for strange things and the entrance ceremony proceeded solemnly with boring congratulatory speeches. The content was conventional, but I would like to give myself credit for getting everything right .
