I Became the Villain’s Childhood Friend

55 – [2] Practical test!

#055

It was obviously an important name I had seen anywhere.

TV? Internet? game?

I wandered hard in my memory, but this did not last long.

The golem approached before I knew it, and showed me a 540 degree rolling thunder and a Tombstone Piledriver.

“Oh my God.”

“Ugh.”

“What happened to the golem?”

A woman named Shannon Redmond caught the magic wand that had fallen to the floor as if desperately in pain.

Then, spitting out a hint, he swung at the golem above.

However, all that came out was a stream of water that came out like peeing.

The magic he chose was spectacle, and the power of magic was spectacle.

“Eek! Ugh! Kww!”

At the end of WWE 2054, I left the test room with more mince than processed meat.

Then, through the door she came out of, a metal skeleton pokes its head out.

A feeling that triggers bad memories.

The moment I was about to clenched my fist, I relaxed at the words ‘Working Skeleton – PP151’ engraved on my head.

It was because it was a magic skeleton that was pampered at the academy.

Sure enough, the skeleton grunted and took out a whiteboard from behind and shook it.

[Next person, come in quickly. 😀]

“““… … .”””

Indeed, the next examinee did not move.

He hesitated at the sight of being beaten so horrific.

I made the same hand gesture to the next person, but it was the same.

I was very hesitant to go in.

‘If I go in now, it’s a loss, isn’t it?’

In this world, golems were often used to test things.

These golems were made with magic, and even if they were of the same type, their performance was vastly different.

It’s really obvious, in fact, anyone can see it.

The golem in front of me was a seriously well-chosen golem.

The academy would be happy because it was selected, but the people who were being tested couldn’t help but feel bad.

It was because they had to go through a much more painful process than those who practiced with weak golems.

You have to fight harder than other students.

The more difficult it is, the more likely it is that it will go out quickly.

This meant that scoring was difficult.

For them, entering now was a loss.

I’m not sure, but he probably thought that way.

Of course, the act of being possessed by a pro wrestler must have played a role.

A waste of time ensued.

Eventually, he rewrote the contents of the whiteboard and gestured for the person behind him to come.

[Is there anyone who wants to do it first? 🤔]

But if you think about it a little differently, this could have been a positive situation.

Common sense made it unlikely that the judges would not consider the difference in performance of the golems.

If the golem was weak, the line was set high, and if the golem was strong, the line was set low.

The academy has been running for several years, and it would be rather strange without that level of judo-ri.

So it was an opportunity.

If you do well, you can get a higher score than others.

Furthermore, even if this golem was captured, there was no guarantee that a much better golem would come.

One now, one later, that was the sound.

I ignored the people in the front row and headed forward confidently.

Stares poured out as if they were looking at a poor lamb on trial.

“I am Kang Xian, an examinee. Can I do it first?”

square square.

[Then this way. 👉]

I moved on, overcoming the intangible sting.

The skeleton led me to a room with a weapon hanging on the wall.

square square.

[Choose your favorite weapon! ☺]

Spears and shields, knuckles, maces, bows, crossbows, daggers, longswords, greatswords, and more.

My choice was, of course, a longsword similar in length to the one I had always used.

“It is a little short. I don’t stand up very much either.”

It was literally just for testing.

Although it is quite threatening to the general public, it is not threatening to hunters or monsters.

I counted while fiddling with the blade.

Roughly, how much mana is needed to make a blade this powerful?

How many knife cuts are needed to defeat that golem?

“Three times, maybe four times.”

It was the maximum, the goal.

I made up my mind and left the room.

Then the skeleton put something in my hand.

Something blue with the feel of a button battery.

It was a mana battery.

When I received it and put it on the Hunter Watch, the hologram and current status began to be displayed.

[Life force: 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙]

[Shield: 🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵]

It was working normally.

The skeleton disappeared after a final confirmation.

– “I will start the Palaistra Academy practical exam, monster hunting section.”

– “The test time is 1 minute in total, and the evaluation is how damaging it is. It depends on what skill you show for attack, defense and evasion.”

– “A test golem is coming soon. It starts when the bell rings, and please refer to the analog timer at the top for the remaining time.”

Artificial voices that sound pre-recorded.

However, it was closer to a magically generated voice that rippled like waves rather than the feeling of a rough machine.

It was around the time I was standing there realizing what magic engineering was.

The front door opened, and a metal golem that had turned a woman into a rag came out.

I moved sideways little by little and watched the golem.

The golem stared at me like this.

When the bell rang, I was certain that there would be no quarrel.

I gripped the sword I was holding lightly, a little stronger.

That moment when the tension reached its peak.

I could feel the sound of metal colliding, and the sensation of shaking vibrations.

Dang, dang, dang—

The clock moved.

The golem stepped on the floor, and I gently raised my senses.

The air stream twisted.

The world slowed down drastically.

[The use of the psychic power ‘Time Acceleration’ has been detected.]

The fact that the letters on the hologram had changed did not even catch my eye.

All he saw was a single, slow-running golem.

I had no intention of avoiding it.

Likewise, I spurred on the floor and moved on.

Looks like they are running away from each other.

approached quickly.

Mana was manipulated, and the tip of the sword was extended with blue particles.

The minute sharpness at the tip of the sword was reflected in the light.

Anyone could see that it was about to be cut down, and I moved my sword so as not to disappoint.

However, the golem also lifted a guard, as if he was unaware of this.

inevitably blocked.

Even so, the sword continued to move.

“It’s like I’m about to get hit one by one—”

“Uh, uh-”

“There is going to be another one. I’m just confident-“

I could feel the gazes through the glass due to poor soundproofing.

But I didn’t mean to criticize.

Isn’t it said that the most fun game in the world is hunsu?

It was possible to see someone who went ahead with a meaningless attack.

That’s why I

“Caught!”

The sword stopped moving.

I moved the other arm that was playing right away.

The movement of the right arm, which held the sword, was pulled back and the movement increased.

On the other hand, the left fist was quickly thrust toward the guard.

Even with magic power.

“To (透)!”

Fake or Feint.

The golem bounced off with a pop.

The metal has warped.

Guard is broken.

slowly flew through the sky.

The explosion of magic was an attack that even a heavy golem could not withstand.

It was a basic martial art that took a big hit, but I had no intention of ending it there.

The floating golem while incapacitated was a piece of meat that was a waste to miss.

Now, I had to take a fatal blow.

Bumping-!

Raise your senses to the limit.

In a more distorted world, I kicked off the floor and jumped forward.

I collected all the mana that was left in my hand and pushed it into the sword.

A curved surface of blue light followed the trajectory.

And the end of the trajectory was the golem’s chest.

The metal that replaced the protective film cracked like jelly and broke off.

In the end, the golem ended up rolling on the floor.

With the lower and upper body separated.

“This is the second.”

The last, confirmed kill, only needed a third attack.

I immediately approached the drooping upper body.

I brought the sword close to my neck.

Now it’s time to cut.

“… … .”

The appearance of a golem without even a slight movement.

There was not even the slightest hint of depth in his eyes.

Originally, it was a dead life.

It was now truly dead.

I rolled my eyes and saw that 10 seconds out of a minute had passed.

He clicked his tongue and recovered the magical power contained in the sword.

Anyway, today’s practical work did not end with this.

Even if he drank potions, he had to conserve his mana.

I turned my head and looked at the black glass.

There must have been supervisors somewhere beyond the glass, visible only from the outside.

As I continued to look at him asking what I was doing, the cleverly hidden door opened.

The metal skeleton that emerged from there held out a whiteboard to me.

[Score measurement complete! You can go for another practice test! 💯]

I even wrote the score right next to it.

I put my sword down on the floor and went out through the door I came in.

Then I felt a different calm than before.

There was no ridicule in the atmosphere, and embarrassment prevailed.

The feeling of quietly looking at something you shouldn’t be looking at.

The only words I could hear were exclamations like ‘Ouch’, ‘Wow’, and ‘Ah’.

Hmm, it seems like all the hard work so far has been worthwhile.

I was satisfied with the feeling that I was healed and my ego was enlarged.

It was then that he took a few more steps, repeating that he would never fall for the academy.

I saw a woman who had fallen from pain into despair.

“ah… … .”

The woman who took the practice test before me.

Shannon Redmond had a bewildered and dazed expression on her face.
