Chapter 78: 74

Now for the second spell."

While the broken doll is being replaced with a new one, the first "laser beam" magic is being graded, and Jet instructs Iris after all the test takers have given the " okay" sign.

'Got it.

Are you ready?"

I'm ready.

Then let's start ......!

　At the same time as the call, a magic circle is deployed around Iris again. This time, the magic circle is at his feet.

After a few seconds of waiting, the slowly spinning magic circle gradually emerged from her ankles toward her head. And when the magic circle came up to the thigh area, the examination hall was filled with a buzz - not really, since everyone was a first-rate mage in the division of special mages - but with that kind of atmosphere.

'Oh, my legs are gone ......!'

　The part of Iris's body through which the magic circle had passed had become transparent. I used " passive sonar" (an applied magic of "sonar," a magic that passively analyzes the magic waves flying from the surroundings without emitting detection magic waves from oneself. Simply put, it is a magic that makes you ultra-sensitive to magic power. The foot part of the body is still responding, so it seems that the foot is not really gone.

Optical camouflage: ......

　I've seen this before on the US military's newest weapons website. Well, it is a standard technology in the sci-fi movie Predator.

But what a cheat technique! Humans are creatures that obtain more than 80% of their perceptual information  via eyes . ears is also important, but not as  as sight. Since it is imperceptible to the sense of sight, it is impossible to measure how effective it is in ambush attacks and undercover operations. This is the kind of magic that assassins and adventurer party thieves the world over are crying out for.

 

Oh,  heer whole body's gone."

　And within 20 seconds or so, Iris disappeared completely. I'm sure that everyone here is a top-notch magician, so they know she' s there, but they can't seem to figure out exactly what she's doing. I would not even know she was there if I didn't have my "passive sonar".

This is what happens when I know that she' s there. If she wanted to target me when I'm not aware of her presence, I honestly don't have confidence in my ability to block the attack.

...... hmmm, this is not a attack magic either, but it is quite useful.

　And then, after a full minute of invisibility, Iris   released the magic.

　Then one of the examiners asked a question.

"Steinfeldt, How long can you  use  that spell?"

"I can keep it up for 10 more minutes."

"Hmmm... ....... I understand."

　The examiner looked at  her , and Jett spoke to Iris again.

, "And now for the last spell, are you ready?"

Yes."

"Then begin."

　On cue, the third magic circle is  appeared . This time, there are two magic circles, one at Iris's feet and the other on the ground in front of her.

　The magic circle at Iris's feet floats up from her ankles to her head as before, but this time Iris' does not disappear. Another magic circle glowed, and an apparition of the exact same   person  that look like as Iris was created. It is as if there are two Iris.

......"

　Jet looks at Iris with a serious face. He is probably thinking about the usefulness of these three spells  .

　For example, Iris creates "illusions. And Iris herself disappears with "optical camouflage". Then, without letting the enemy know  her  location, she attacks  him unilaterally with a laser beam, and it will be over ,

　It would be quite difficult for a first-timer to use  combo of this spells   . No wonder I was confident that I could pass the exam even if I got only 30 points  on the written exam.

　He turned to  her and said, "......Good, now please step back. I'll let you know the results of the test as soon as I get them. Next is the Eberhardt .

"Yes, sir.

　Iris came toward me and switched places with me.

"Good luck."

"Yeah, I can't  fall here . I'm not going to let you down."

"Hmm."

　Iris doesn't talk a lot, but she's very communicative and considerate. And above all, she is a good girl. At this rate, she'll probably pass the interview just in time. I'm sure she'll pass the practical test without question, so as long as I don't screw up, we'll be working together as co-workers.

A:ll right, I'm going to get serious.:

No, wait, Eberhardt, just "don't destroy the training grounds. "

What, I'm not that trustworthy?"

No, in your case, it's a battle. You're dealing with the opponent.

What, I''m not up against  you ?"

"The recommender can't test the  person he recommends, you know."

Really?

　There may be a widespread infestation of fraud, but most likely it's because the recommenders can't really  marking  the exams. If they want  someone to pass the exam, they will be more lenient in their scoring, even if it is not intentional. If  they don't grade them strictly with the intention of losing them, the division will  be decline.

So,  as for your opponent, I have prepared one of the most battle-junk  Berserkers in the Special  Division."

"Wait a minute!　What kind of a battle-junk berserker is that?　I'm an  fine human being!"

How can I  describe  you if  not a berserker?"

Is he abusing you in any way?

"No, I'm  fighting  you."

　I'm somewhat unconvinced, but ......, an exam is an exam. I can't say I'm quitting just because I don't like it.

I don't care if  I  hurt you."

"Oh, so you're the one who's going to  fight me? You're a bull!"

What?

　The way  he is talk, it sounds as if I'm the one who could get hurt. I think  I need to tighten up  mu  focus on this one. I have no intention of losing 

"Captain Siegfried!"

"Yes!

　One of the examiners answered and approached us.  He is a young man, probably around 20 or so years old. He is about 180 centimeters tall, which is slightly taller than average by the standards of men in this world. However, the high energy emitted from his toned body was very belligerent and intimidating.

"You're my opponent in this  to death  fight  ?

"Death fight ?　Are you alright, examiner?"

I'm fine. Don't worry. I'm just a little crazy."

What do you mean by that? That.'

　However, the fact that he is in the division even though he is crazy is the reflection of his outstanding ability.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. But there can be few broken bones "

".Broken bones ....., hmm?　What?"

　The thoughts of a  crazy person are not understood by ordinary people, I guess."

　The fact that this guy is  in  special division    means that he has passed the minimum 30% standard for the written test, right? 

Captain Siegfried.

"Usu."

"Fight   with the intent to kill. Otherwise, you're in danger."

............

　The other side's will to fight seems to have already reached a critical point. I'm in trouble. ......."

'Eberhardt, examinee. His nickname is "Thunderbolt."

"......." "Really?"

　An Imperial Knight. There are six titles in the imperial kingdom: baron, viscount, count, frontier count, marquis, and duke, but apart from these, there is the  knight order and associate baronet.

　While the titles of man, son, count, countess, count, marquis, and duke are hereditary,  knights and barons are not. The  knight order is a system in which those who have distinguished themselves in the military, and the baron is a system in which those who have distinguished themselves in the economy or politics are treated as nobles for one generation only.

　Since  knight order are conferred regardless of status, even if a person already in knight order , they are often used as an incentive for nobility. If a lord succeeds in developing or reforming his lands and pays more taxes, he may be granted a baronetcy by the emperor. This would make the lord more appealing to the outside world as a competent lord. The same can be said for  knights. There is no more obvious measure of strength.

"Now, both of you, take your positions."

　Captain Siegfried and I move to the starting line of the  training  grounds . I've been through my fair share of deadly encounters, and I'm sure my opponent has as much or more experience. I could feel the aura of a strong man, and  it's not just the atmosphere.

"Begin!"

　The practical test that would determine whether I passed or failed had begun.

P.s Don't expect much from me .....
