Knight.
Even if I say so to one word, knights have a lot to offer. A kingdom knight who protects his country, a Kingsguard knight who serves nobility, a universal historical knight who travels around the world as if he were an adventurer, without ever getting under anyone again. There are many other things named knights.
Among them, I admire being a knight, and I call the children who go to school to gain their knowledge and strength as knights a boy knight.
This is such a story of one boy knight.
Spring.
The season of parting and meeting. I was in the swirl. I intend to leave the village where I have lived since I was born and attend a school in a distant place. I haven't passed the entrance exam yet, so I can't say enough.
The exam starts now. This is an important test to determine if I can get through here. It's like a punitive game where you have to turn back on the path you've been walking for weeks if you fall.
"Ki, I'm nervous..."
It's not in the punishment game. I'm just nervous about everything for the first time. Sometimes you don't know what you're up to, and you'd say it's simply because it's a good exam to say it's the biggest event of your life.
"Right here...?
I followed the map my father gave me and headed to the exam venue. Put a small map forward with both hands and proceed as it says.
"Is that it? Is that crazy? It's supposed to be here..."
The final point written on the map. It was supposed to be a test venue there. But it's the pond that spreads in front of you. If you drop your eyes on the map again, the pond is the exact opposite of the destination.
"That's crazy? I thought it went according to the map..."
Yes, one person worries when he looks at the map he put up opposite up and down.
Is my father wrong? Or maybe I went the wrong way somewhere...
I never realized the map was upside down. [M]
"Hey, hey! What are you doing here?
Am I alone in front of the pond? That way, I guess? And when I was doing it, I heard a hazy, energetic voice.
I looked over at you and there was a girl with short, thin golden hair close to white. The outfit was wearing armor and was chivalrous, but it was clear from the face that was still unobtrusive that the child was still a girl who could not be called a knight.
"Ah ⁉ That's tough!
I'm gonna be late for the exam! No, I'm late! We have to go fast!
I rushed out in the opposite direction of the girl. [M] I don't know why.
"Backwards and backwards, this way!
………
Am I directional tone deaf?
Even with maps, I get lost, and the survey comes off beautifully...
"Thank you! Bye!"
Now I should have gone the right way. [M]
But if you noticed, you were coming back to the pond.
Why...?
Ask questions in awe of your lack of sense of direction. That's the same with the girl who was watching the thing.
"... why?
"Why...?
I want to hear it. I should have gone straight ahead, but I came back. Is it even enchanted?
"Uh, shall I show you around?
"Never..."
The girl was kind enough to guide me to the exam venue. I wouldn't get lost if they showed me exactly. I arrived at the exam venue without any problems.
"Thank you. Thanks for your help."
"Yeah, it doesn't matter this much. Well, good luck with that. Exams, life..."
A generous sympathetic gaze was directed at me by the girl. It seems that I have already been confirmed by severe directional tone loss. [M] No, I don't know...
Human beings have their weaknesses. In my case, it was just a sense of direction.
Let's get out of here early when we go somewhere we don't know. Because I get lost...
"Shh, excuse me. I got lost and delayed..."
There was a faculty-like person dressed as a knight when he entered the exam venue, so he spoke with an apology. I was late, so I thought I'd have to ask the examiner for directions for now.
"Lost your way? Well, then you fail."
"What? Huh, are you failing...? That's..."
"It's a joke. But I'm pretty sure it's a little tough for you to pass because you're a little late for the deduction."
Good. No, isn't that good...
Reduced score... bad luck first...
I was led to a different room from the other kids. There were seats lined up where no one was sitting, and there was paper on the desk. The first test is in writing, so that would be the problem paper.
"Sit there. Time for the test is an hour and a half, but you're late. You only have an hour left. I'll keep that in mind. Okay, here we go."
I began to solve the problem with the start signal. [M] The problem wasn't as difficult as that. I thought I'd manage to make it with this, but I noticed I was trying to write an answer on the answer sheet.
I forgot my pencil...
"Oh, um..."
"What is it?
"Oh, I forgot my pencil..."
……………
The examiner was frightened. It is true that there is no voice because you are frightened. I was also stunned by my woes. [M]
"... use this."
"Thank you!
When the examiner gratefully receives the pencil he took out of his nostrils, he writes down the answer in his raw warm gaze.
Uh, which of the following actions took over the chivalry spirit?
A woman was being chased by a man with a weapon in her hand. As it is, a man will kill you. What will you do?
a. Kill a man
b. Missing a woman, I stop a man
c. A woman and a man after taking a man's weapon and being able to push it, listening to both
b?
a is outside, and c is the woman being chased, so don't just feel like stopping the guy. Failure to do so puts women at risk. I still feel like b is a good idea.
I write on the problem form with b.
Eh, next...
We don't have time, so we solve the problem one after the other. There were actually different kinds of problems, from basic knowledge to issues that preached what knights were.
I managed to unravel everything in time. I exhaled. When I saw it, the examiner looked somewhere horrible.
"... that's it. This is the end of the written exam. Next, a practical exam will be conducted in an outside exercise area. Pack your bags and go."
"Oh, yes."
Next up is the practice area...... can we get there properly?
The examiner looked a little worried and asked me if such anxiety was on my face.
"What's wrong with you?
"No, uh... I'm actually like directional tone deafness... and I was wondering if I could get to the practice area properly..."
"... I see. Well, let me show you."
The convincing examiner took me to the practice area to retrieve the test quickly. Very helpful. I was late for the exam again, and if I was reduced, I wouldn't have stopped.
With that in mind, a young man dressed in very brilliant armor came running over for a long time.
"I was here. What are you doing, Knights Leader?"
"Oh, my God..."
"What? Knight Commander... ⁉;"
"Something you could come a little later," he said, knighthood captain without the color of reflection.
Knight Commander...
Someone who stands at the apex of all knights... this man...
I turn my respect to the Knights Commander. He climbed up to the same spot as his father once did. That alone made it the highest rank for me as a respected subject.
"What the hell are you doing? ⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉\82
"Chip, I can't help it...... Hey, Carambel, show this kid to the practice area. I don't like going to Semberua."
"Ha ⁉ Why do I have to show this flourishing Knights of the Kingdom 1st degree knight a child I haven't even enrolled in yet?"
A first-degree knight is a super elite in third place in an organization with a pyramid structure culminating in a knighthood leader. Below the Knights Commander there is the Knights Commander from 1st to 6th, below which there are the Knights from 1st to 3rd degree.
In other words, first-degree knights are later knight chiefs and expected elites.
I guess his pride won't allow that elite to guide a child who hasn't even become a knight yet.
"Then you go to Semberua in my place. I don't want to see the lord over there."
"No, that's a little... Give me a break."
Carambel grew old after hitting earlier. How long does it take to meet a lord who lives in Semberua?
"Then show him around. to report it and its contents later. In detail."
"Yes, yes, I get it. Why the hell would I do this..."
Carambelle giving a throwing reply. I doubt I can take that attitude, but the Knights drove their doubts outside that there might be a more at-home atmosphere than I thought.
"Um, nice to meet you"
"Huh, this way"
I carefully bowed my head to at least not make an unpleasant impression. Besides, Carambel snorted one and started walking. I thank the Knights Commander before I follow.
The Knights captain stared at that back with anticipation.
"Looking forward to it. How old is my senior son..."
"Here."
"Thank you! I couldn't make it this far by myself."
"? Well. It's about getting good results."
Carambel, who stared straight at the school building where he had taken a written exam to my words and looked strange, said so and left himself where the examiners were.
Being alone, I slapped my bread and both cheeks twice in an attempt to get in the mood and started a light prep exercise.
My gaze gathers from around me like that. When I turned my eyes to see what it was, the kids around me looked sassy out of sight. None of the kids who missed that gaze did any prep exercises or anything. I waited very long for the exam to begin.
Is that it? Were you in too much mood? Looks like you should wait a long time.
That's what I thought, and I heard ridiculous laughter when I stopped prep campaigning and waited very long.
"Pfft."
"Come on, don't laugh at him. Wouldn't that be pathetic?
"Puffy, 'cause..."
The conversation I heard with the mockery. When I looked in the direction of hearing the conversation wondering who you were talking about, there was a brown-haired boy holding his belly down and a blonde boy smiling like a fool himself by pretending to stop it. They are both dressed in armor that looks expensive and give it a great vibe somewhere.
Are you a nobleman?
Yeah, I guess.
"What subordinate? Are you complaining about something?
"Complain?"
"Hey, what's that attitude? Who do you think we are?"
Blonde has told me to provoke with a staring gaze. When I returned it in doubt, the brown hair behind it raged. [M]
Why are you angry?
I didn't know what was causing you to be so angry, but let's just apologize. We're going to live together. Being unfriendly is not a good thing.
"I'm sorry. I think I've touched something."
"In a subordinate manner, licked mouth..."
"Stop it, Slegle. You want to fall for the exam?
"What... I'm sorry, Elgar"
An even more furious brown hair, a blonde elger who calmly stopped Slegle.
Made me angry again...
Was it my bad way of saying it?
With such doubts, the examiner began to explain the exam by saying it was time.
The practical exam can be divided into three parts.
First one is the skill of the sword. This seems to make students fight each other and see their strength. Swords are wood swords, not serious. Winning or losing is irrelevant. Because he just wants to see that skill.
Next is the magic exam. This is an exam to show off your best magic in front of the examiner. They also see its operability and activation speed, so it doesn't have to be difficult magic.
The final exam is a practice. They play mock warfare on their active knight opponents to see their strength. They say you can use magic, swords, skills, whatever.
My father told me about this in advance, so I'm just checking again. The other kids will be too. No one had the face of knowing for the first time.
"Then start the exam. If they call, come."
The exam began. It seems to do three exams at the same time and they are called one after the other.
In the meantime, I was alone in my thoughts without seeing the exams of the other children.
What am I going to do?
I don't mind the sword, but which one should we put into magic or practice?
I was thinking about that.
Magic is limitless. And magic is consumed by two things: magic and skill. In practice, both of these will be used. I want to keep it warm if I can.
Then I'll have to get out of my hands on the magic test. With advanced magic, you'll get good grades. But instead, there's not enough magic to test the practice. My magic power consumes most of my magic with one advanced magic shot.
Trouble...
I was hoping for more magic by the time of the exam, but I don't think so.
Shall we invest in practice here?
The magic test should not be so low, as it has an advantage both in the elementary and the activation speed and operability. Let's put some effort into practice here.
"Next, Mr. Dickold."
"Oh, yes!
The name was called at the time of the conclusion. Sounds like a magic test first.
"You are. I hope so."
"What? But I'll do my best"
I don't know, but I think you're expecting me, so let's do our best.
"Hoo... Fireball."
I exhaled deeply to calm down and then cast my magic. He immediately manipulated and spun the fireball that appeared in front of him, hitting it in a targeted manner.
Magic appeared at the best speed I could now because I was aware of the speed of activation. I added a spin to give it a little score and flew it to draw more spirals.
I hope this gives you a little good score...
I thought so and turned my attention to the examiner who told me I was expecting it. Then the examiner opened his eyes and glanced.
Is that it? Did I just break my expectations?
Yes, I interpreted. I thought if I thought I was going to use advanced magic, I might be flabbergasted when I was a beginner.
I'm anxious...
I have to work harder than the others because I'm being downgraded. Then I'm going to fall for the exam...
The other two need to work hard.
As soon as I finished my magic exam, I was called to the next exam. It's a sword test. That means you have someone...
"Huh, is that you? I'm anxious to see if my powers can only be demonstrated by lower magic."
It's Slegle who's been telling me to mock and laugh. The face, visible from between the brown hair, was full of confidence. That is, there is no way to lose to such a subordinate.
I was atrophied in front of such a confident sleigh. [M] I feel confident by now. I thought it would have the strength to do so. If you don't mean it, it may end without showing strength either. Let's do everything we can from the start.
"Beginning"
I fleshed out to Slegle with the exam officer's signal to start. That speed is pretty fast because it used all of the physical enhancement system skills. I approached him sooner than I could breathe. I swung my sword out with all my might.
It sucked into the belly of the sleggle and blew the sleggle high in the sky with both dull sounds.
Oh, that...?
I watched the result starkly differently from what I expected. Slegle swims in the sky for about 300 meters before falling.
Would he be alive?
"Gahoo!"
Slegle lying in blood. The examiner rushes to heal magic.
Good. ~ Looks like he's alive.
Still, he was no bigger than I thought. Well, even Ray had a hard time coping, and maybe I'm a fast mover.
Besides, he was clearly caught off guard. Maybe without that alarm, I wouldn't have won.
Not if you're in too much shape, are you?
I praised myself that way, waiting for the next exam to begin. Because of my mind, I feel like people are gone from around me. Why not?
"Mr. Dickold!
"Yes!"
This is my last exam. Let's go full throttle from the beginning, just like we did earlier so we don't regret it.
"Here we go."
The opponent was a middle-aged man wearing armor that looked expensive. Looks very strong. I'm going to borrow your chest.
Unlike the exam earlier, I didn't attack early.
Let's see how it goes first. This is practice. They may get hit with unexpected moves that they don't seem to storm from the beginning.
"You're not coming? Okay, here we go."
That said, the knight takes a step forward.
Fast!
Is the boulder something like an active knight? You'd be out of your hands. This speed. As fast as Ray did when he fortified his flesh.
I react by opening my flesh strengthening completely. [M] Kill the momentum of the sword paid to the horizontal giraffe, and you enter the inside of the other body. And put in a blow with your elbow as you turn your back.
The blow did not stop and damage the armor. Instead, there was damage to myself when I attacked him alive. My elbow hurts...
I went on to release the kick. [M] That's not meant to do damage to the target. It's a blow you've unleashed to distance yourself from your opponent. Jump up high in the sky to step around the chest of armor. Looking at the knights from above, to the extent that they are slightly relaxed, there seems to be no damage.
But that's enough. The distance was taken.
I wrapped a pale light around my body to further strengthen my flesh. My unique skills. Without this, I can't say I would have crossed Ray. It's a skill to call my trump card.
I found out during this short battle that if I didn't cut that trump card, I wouldn't be able to cross with this man. If you don't mean it, they'll do it.
Standing down on the ground, I jumped right in between them. The knight's eyes showed a stunning colour. Obviously a different move than earlier, which led to stunning the knight.
"Ha-ha-ha."
"Knock."
The knight took my full blow and ate his teeth. There was a will there. There's a will that you can't lose to a child as a knight.
It made me forget the idea that the will had to be reduced.
I was the one who lost the sword push. The force of the sword being pushed back upsets the balance and lowers it so that it can be put back. A sword swung down so as to poke that gap.
I resist that blow by fortifying my armor with an aggressive magic fill.
A great shock came from the armor, but withstood it, I began to condense the light.
I lost by force. Even the speed will lose. Experience and skill are up there. Then I'm the only one with this skill to win.
Condens the light to the sword and saves a special blow. The charge time is approximately 10 seconds. It's my greatest attack. If this doesn't work, I can't help it.
Not a knight watching it in silence, of course. There is no such thing as a calm gaze until earlier, and I'm fleshy trying to stop my attack with a serious eye.
I manage that with no sword, just body movements, and a flash of clearance and distance. A knight approaching.
Staring straight at the knight and finding out that Aura, who had covered her body that the charge was over, disappeared, I put my sword up and swung it down.
"Holy Light Penglai"
That's a move I once used in my battle with Ray. My aura can also be a powerful attack by strengthening and condensing what it entails. This is a blow that took all the rest of the aura in and let go. It had so much power that it could not be compared to what it once was.
A stream of light that tries to sharpen the ground greatly and swallow everything.
The knight stops and tries to defend himself with a shield with impatience.
Both the students and examiners around them see the light in the scraping noise of the ground. And what saw it brought the colour of amazement and fear to its face.
One of them had a different look. There was also a startling look on the face of the man, but the colour of haste was stronger than that. He kicked the chair he was sitting in haste, and the man jumped between the examiner's knight and the light.
Gowwwwwww
A ringing roar. A sudden sound in that sound that makes you want to suppress the ears that appear.
Cuyyn:
That was the sound of light swallowing the man who broke in between. The man wields an endless sword wrapped with magic in the light. It only cuts open where there is a man and a knight behind him in the running of light.
Eventually, out of the light that had subsided, Carambel appeared, a knight who had lost his hips and a man who seeped sweat in his forehead and was in a state of impatience.
"Is that it?"
I lean my neck against the carambel that suddenly appeared. I wonder why that guy is here.
Ignoring my question like that, Carambelle turns her attention to the knight behind her.
"Are you all right?
"Yes! Thank you, Mr. Carambel."
"Right."
Having confirmed the safety of the knight, Carambel replies briefly, leaving the scene with a difficult face. He also leaves the practice area, where silence dominates the scene. Even those who were in the middle of the exam stopped moving.
What is this situation...? What the hell...
I don't dew that it's my fault, and I start to think it's because of something Carambel broke in.
Are we all surprised that Mr. Carambel came in? I was surprised, too...
I wonder what will happen to the exam more than that? Can we just keep going like this?
"Um, can I continue with the exam?
"Ha ⁉ No, that's it, yeah, the exam is over! Thanks for the hard work!
The examiner left in a hurry to escape. I'm talking about something with the other examiners. I heard you say take my place or something like that I can't do anymore.
Did you get hurt somewhere? Maybe I was surprised Mr. Carambel came in and even screwed up my leg...
Like other personnel, I go back to the waiting area, thinking. Then you go away so that people can draw you apart.
What? What?
I'll take a step forward.
Take two steps back around.
Take another step.
Now take three steps back.
What is this? Play?
Speaking of which, Ray taught me. There was something similar in the play. Mr. Dharma did fall.
I'm sure it's a similar game.
That's what I thought. I took a step forward or backed down and we all played. I have fun and a laugh, but around the time I see it, I take about five steps back at once.
That's the rule. You take five steps back when you laugh. All right, let's remember while we do the other rules.
I don't mean to be playing around at all, but I don't realize it. I try and move.
The odd sense of solidarity moved the students as a single population (...) until the end of the exam.
