That Ordinary Mister is a War God

69. Towards the Academy Selection Exam

The background of the members recruited as student candidates for the Academy is surprisingly varied.

He is an active court clerk, a young Knights, a princess studying territorial management under her father, an adventurer, or a city treasurer.

"If I did this on this scale, I wonder if I'd get any information about the Academy, even if I didn't like it"

Gerald, general director of the First Knights "Einsbrow, assigned the job as the side issuing the exam, crushes questions in the office in the castle.

It was General Weinberger sitting next to him who answered that.

"I don't mind. Your Majesty wants you to succeed, even if you don't, and he wants me to apply to whomever I think I am in the future."

"Just looking for the blind will take you away. I know you want to expect talent from selling yourself in."

Gerald perceives the emperor's aim.

"But what do the examiners do? I don't think we're going to be able to do this alone."

Weinberger answered his question with a seemingly complicated face.

"Master Oltveen, Master Jürgen, Mr. Zergius."

"Become... I will convene the former Yagami Fai, so rinse?

There's no point in Gerald being stunned.

Those who were Yagami Fai live in hiding after generations.

The general shrugged his shoulders.

"Speaking of ex, except for the active Yagami Fai, you're the most powerful class in the empire. I can say it's a good idea in the current situation of understaffing. I'd rather not have a choice."

"Thank you very much for taking on this."

That was what Gerald thought when he heard Weinberga explain.

Those who become Yagami Fai often have wagamama personalities, no matter the degree of difference.

Even if I was serious and honest during my tenure, I didn't think so even after I left office.

Only three of the eight were able to convene.

"I'm sure you have a lot of love for your country."

But Weinberga didn't dare to get to that point.

If three out of eight responded, it would be a full success.

I don't think you should want it high.

"Weinberga - are the Jurgens stronger than General?

Gerald speaks of what he was wondering.

Though I wasn't sure whether to ask, I ended up putting it to words.

Weinberga - nods with a bitter smile.

"That's right. If I had been stronger, I would have been Yagami Fai."

The General is also in a position to wear it if he is not strong, but Yagami Fai is above it.

Besides, some of the former Yagami Fai may still be stronger than the active Yagami Fai.

That's what he thought.

"Per Master Jürgen, he still seems strong..."

Gerald names one man.

Jürgen is another alien use in the Empire, a man who was Bartolomeus' master.

"Dear Oltveen, so is Master Zergius. Master Zergius is acting as a first-degree adventurer."

"Huh? Are you kidding me?

When he heard Weinberga speak, Gerald peeled his eyes and shouted out loud.

"If the Yagami Fai class had done what an adventurer would have done, the name would have spread in an instant"

"He's changing his name and hiding his powers, so he hasn't missed it yet."

Weinberga says shudderingly.

"Isn't that something you can still tell?

He laughs bitterly again at Gerald's question.

"The other way around. If Master Zergius hides his power, few can spot it. Yagami Fai would spot it, but he would pretend not to notice it."

"I see..."

Explained to the general, Gerald recalls that Yagami Fai is also good at hiding his powers.

What a class IX adventurer you are to Bartolomeus.

Where he was convinced, Weinberg said.

"Yeah, well, some of our predecessors, Mr. Ouvé, are here, so be prepared."

"Eh."

Gerald peels off his eyes and groans like a scream.

And he hurriedly blocked his mouth and apologized for his own lapse.

"Excuse me"

"What, I know how you feel"

Weinberga - with a depressing look - shows understanding of his people's reactions.

They stopped chatting and concentrated on their work.
