I Became the Villain’s Childhood Friend

Chapter 90

90 – [2] Placement Test

#090

We are recruiting slaves.

Of course, as a fresh and delicious slave.

“Hey, shouldn’t this be at the top?”

“Do you seriously think this is a reward?”

“If you say that, who gets first place?”

“You don’t know what a graduate student image is like?”

“Isn’t the Deputy Director of Admissions someone from Texas who worked somewhere other than here?”

“If I could just abstain, I would abstain. What the hell are you going to gain from this test?”

The backlash never ceased.

A reward that doesn’t make sense when you think about it with common sense.

If this kind of sound came from a normal university, I wouldn’t have been criticized like this.

In the first place, as it is advantageous to obtain a master’s or doctoral degree in some fields, there was no choice but to be a certain number of people who wanted to become graduate students.

However, the academy is a place where hunters are centrally educated.

There were very few people in all fields who wished for a master’s degree or higher.

Everybody was coming for a proper education and a bachelor’s diploma.

This meant that virtually no one wanted to become a graduate student.

In addition, the lecture halls and laboratories were far from bloody scenes.

Obtaining a master’s or doctoral degree was not an advantage, but there was room for extreme disadvantage.

So, the remarks of the deputy director of admissions could be summarized as dog poop.

There was no reason for me to become a graduate student in the first place, as long as I got a high rank in this test.

By the time I graduate, I’m sure I’ll be at least in the middle ranks, but with just this level, I was able to get into a decent guild and have a good time.

I couldn’t even figure out what the hell the intention was to be selected first for school events.

It was surprising that he put those words in, and Kang Xian couldn’t even guess what the hidden intention might be.

Still, these words themselves were not to the point of being meaningless.

Because it deviated so much from common sense that his intentions could be seen.

“That, no matter how you look at it, feels like it was done on purpose.”

“Huh? Kangshi, what is it?”

“Common sense, if you become the deputy director of admissions, you will know what the image of a graduate student is like. Why would you say such a thing in a place like this? It is clear that the words came after unconditional calculations and discussions.”

There was a high possibility that the deputy director of admissions was a shield.

I wonder who would use it as a shield, but if it was a candidate, it could be said that it was overflowing.

“Who the hell are you talking to?”

“Well, they must be professors. I heard that a lot of graduate students died in the last terrorist attack. Perhaps, it was the intention of making up for the children who died at that time.”

“Mmm, sure…… Come to think of it, it seems like that.”

“Moreover, I didn’t say it was the first selection, but the first selection, ‘kwon’. One-on-one meetings are mandatory, but for graduate students, it’s their choice.”

A corner that subtly escapes.

It was implied that selection for school events is optional by adding the word opportunity.

It could have been because they were considerate of the students, or it could have been to avoid their own legal punishment.

What is certain is that the top students had a chance to reject, and many of them noticed this.

Of course, even if that was the case, I wondered if it was necessary to scratch my nerves this far.

When Kang Xian thought about it, this was a gamble that could have adverse effects and max out unlikability.

A big risk.

It’s hard to even deal with it.

It was around the time I was gradually immersed in such thoughts.

Above the podium, warnings about the test began to flow.

– “…… If you do not take this test, you may be at a disadvantage in your academy life in the future.”

“Of course I do. Almost all the kids who said they wouldn’t play because of it in the first place came.”

– “However, there will be no such penalty for freshmen who participated in the test but withdrew.”

“Huh?”

“What? It doesn’t matter if you participate or abstain?”

– “Of course, if you withdraw right from the start, your ranking will be low and there will be restrictions on the selection of lectures. In any case, you can see that there is no long-term disadvantage.”

“What is it, are you grading points according to the point reached?”

“What? Wait a minute, then now…….”

You cannot attend.

However, after the start, it becomes a waiver.

At this one word, the crowd went wild again.

It was the beginning of weighing whether to take the final exam or to give up calmly.

The Deputy Director of Admissions ended with that.

It was like throwing bombs in succession and disappearing, and on the other hand, it was like making an escape route quietly.

“Are you going to give up just because you stood for a while?”

“These are absolutely not cowards.”

“You guys just get off your dick and get off the milk!”

“Right, right.”

Of course, it was a way out for men and women.

In the eyes of some freshmen, the appearance of being agitated at the word that they could abstain was insignificant and unmatched.

They are determined to walk 64 km, but they refuse to walk even 1 km.

How ridiculously ugly it is after enrolling in Palaistra Academy.

That’s why some freshmen burned their will to say that they wouldn’t show themselves like that, that they would reach the top ranks and reject graduate students.

It was grit, stubbornness, and victory of will.

Soon, the person on the podium changed once more.

A man who appeared to be the presenter pointed with his finger in the direction the students were heading.

– “Yes! Long wait! From now on, let’s start the Palaistra Academy placement test!”

Soon, timers were displayed on screens everywhere.

But it was 10 seconds, and people who saw it started preparing to move.

– “Then, we’ll see you all in Ponce!”

There was no bullsh*t.

That was the end.

The timer ticked slowly and pointed to ‘1’.

The phrase ‘Go’ then came to mind, and the background changed to a camera view from above the sky.

– “Everyone can start!!!”

The huge crowd began to slowly leave from the front.

It happened because some in the front row were clamoring to save their stamina.

It was supposed to be faster than this on a busy road on a holiday day.

If there were fruit, snack, and beverage vendors here, it might have sold out quickly.

That’s why Cheonma-ri really regretted not thinking of renting a food truck and selling Nartika potion.

This is a total bonanza. You can dispose of low-quality products at random. Shall I call and call you now?

“Uh, what? It will take an hour to get out of town.”

“Huh, that’s right.”

“I don’t think I’ll be able to get to Ponce today if I keep going like this…….”

Meanwhile, Xian Kang looked around.

Then, I saw people who were contributing to the traffic jam while standing idly by.

A scene of turning on the test app installed on the Hunter Watch and pressing the abstain button attached to it.

Then, they leisurely hit the streets to enjoy life.

‘Ah!’

I didn’t have to use this distance.

Going straight through this road was the shortest route, so they were all here.

If the road was blocked, the answer was to take a detour through an empty road.

All I had to do was get out of the city somehow and get to Ponce.

Not even in the rules.

I decided it was possible enough.

Kang Xian looked around.

Then I looked out into an empty alley.

‘That place would be nice.’

I checked the map app of Hunter Watch.

I set up the shortest path that goes right through the detour and doesn’t get blocked.

[Let’s start the guide.]

Holographic maps and routes appeared.

Kang Xian drew the attention of the members with applause.

“Everyone, please follow me!”

“Yes? Where are you talking about?”

“Please follow me! If I stay here, I won’t be able to score a goal today!”

We held each other’s hands so as not to lose sight of each other and cut through the crowd.

I quickly headed for an eerie alley.

A space full of musty smell.

After escaping, I entered a bleak and narrow alley.

“Evil! Jiangshiyaaa river!”

“What?! What’s the matter!”

“Save me!”

A minor accident happened in a narrow alley.

It’s not different, it’s because of the big breasts and hips.

Kang Xian managed to pull out the big regressor who made everything useless.

After a while, he uttered a single voice telling him to lose some weight and continued on his way.

After that, there were several more accidents, but it was not that important.

Anyway, despite the slight delay, they arrived at the start of the course earlier than expected.

“I guess I just have to follow this road now.”

“Huh, I’m glad.”

“By the way, it seems that there are a few people who arrived before us?”

Those who were lucky enough to arrive early.

A typical example was a group of people who spit out Chinese and rode the mountain outside the city.

They intended to bypass obstacles and golems entirely through mountain climbing.

Looking at their brave spirit, it was clear that they were the people of Jingzhou, who could be said to be the descendants of the horse.

“But they don’t just fly, do they?”

“Look over there to save your energy.”

Climbing to conserve one’s mana, which is called internal energy.

It was a bit strangely nonsensical.

But there was nothing Kang Xian and the members could say.

I just whimpered and watched them climb the mountain.

“…… But will we be able to arrive on time?”

“Roughly? It takes a little bit of something else.”

“Anything else?”

“Honestly, I think I missed the top rank in the exam. I just don’t know if it’s upper middle class.”

“Ah… ….”

It was unavoidable as no one knew how to use movement-related magic.

Even if they were in the top ranks now, they would slowly be pushed away as time passed.

‘Still, upper-middle class…… !’

Shannon could have been as desperate as he was aiming for his scholarship, but in the first place he was as fortunate as he thought he was in the middle or lower ranks.

She could say that her current situation was sensible to her.

In this way, the members set off again with the hope of completely avoiding the graduate student ending.

I walked down the long road, enduring the heat, and it was about a few minutes later.

The section where the road splits came out and I saw a rough little side road.

And there was a sign stuck in front of it.

She was a sign that wasn’t there until she was spied on.

Kang Xian and his crew got closer and checked the words on the sign.

[Problem 1. 2 + 2 × 2 = ?]

[(Broadway) ← ‘6’ – ‘8’ → (small road)]

Activate full brain.

The answer came right away.

“Isn’t it 8? ….”
