I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years

102.Final Exam…Is the End of Service (4)

“Sif. Take this.”

I handed Sif the mask I had brought with me from the studio. Sif handed it over to me, and with a look of understanding written all over his face, he asked me,

“Do you know how to make something like this?”

“I know how to use mithril, but making a mask like this is no problem.”

“Well.”

This makes me look like a middle school student, but I still needed this level of preparation to get involved in the main story. Lewis knows my face, and I would be in trouble if I showed my face

Naturally, I can’t even shovel.

Since I had to hide my identity here, I also had to come up with a concept.

I put a shovel with a mithril cover deep inside my backpack, took out a piece of wood, and made a small staff. Like a magic wand from a fantasy movie series that dominated an era a long time ago. When I was young, this was my dream.

“To imitate a wizard?”

“That would be the easiest.”

Just in case, I had Sif airlift materials to show me other concepts, but I have no intention of using them anyway. One image would be so clear that there would be no doubt that it was the same person, but it could also cause unnecessary misunderstanding.

The concept is so strong.

“Then what about me?”

“Don’t just show your face. All you have to do is imitate an explorer by throwing at least the dagger you brought.”

“Okay~”

Then, let’s start following them.

We stood next to the door Lewis passed through and looked beyond it. This is a natural procedure since you have to secretly follow Lewis while checking his progress. It doesn’t seem like it took that long for us to come down, but progress is faster than expected.

“I think it would be okay to pass by.”

We entered a quiet room with only traces of destruction. The room was a mess with golem fragments scattered around. We headed to the next room, moving slowly to avoid being caught. As I got closer to the door, I started to hear faint sounds.

“I think I’m in the next room.”

“Hmm, progress is faster than I thought? “It’s only been about 15 minutes since we heard it.”

Whether he was possessed or not, the original protagonist seemed to be quite strong.

Even though it’s only a test dungeon, it’s being pushed through so quickly. As for the game, I think it can be said that the development is quite good. However, since reality and games are different, we could not rule out the possibility that the party members except Lewis were stronger than expected.

“Sif. Take out the telescope.”

“Okay-“

We took out our binoculars and carefully entered the door. This time, it is a room of similar size. We peeked out from next to the door and located Lewis and his group. Lewis and his party were so busy fighting monsters that they couldn’t pay any attention to this area.

Like that.

If it were me, I would have set up a trap in the back and moved in preparation for a surprise attack.

“Sif. “I will keep my distance and observe those students with a telescope.”

“Observe? Why them? “So you’re not a student?”

Sif tilted her head and asked me.

“If we enter the dimensional rift, we may need cooperation with those students. “I plan to just watch as much as possible, but… I need to know the students’ strengths in case an unexpected situation occurs.”

“In other words, hazard pay will increase, right?”

“…Interpret it however you want.”

Sighing inwardly as Sif’s thought circuit continued to progress, I sat down in a suitable position and put the telescope to my eye socket.

Using a telescope, I could see the original protagonist’s party fighting hard in the distance to the extent that I could distinguish their facial expressions. The first thing I did was check the faces of the party members.

Is it a group of 5 people? First, Louis, a swordsman and melee dealer. Wizards Shuri and Laperine. A male student who appears to be a priest, and an unknown female student who throws a medicine bottle.

One healer and four dealers.

The opponents are three rock golems that look like they are roughly made of blocks and three or four goblins. It was a composition that seemed to have been roughly exported as it was a combination.

“Hey, are you hitting that guy with a sword?”

“What do you think if an enemy appears that is stronger in your opinion?”

“Hmm… Still, that sword-wielding guy wants to fly, so wouldn’t it be quite useful? Distance control isn’t bad, and I’m trying to get the right amount of attention so as not to draw attention to my colleagues. But it looks a little scary since it doesn’t have any armor or shield… Oops. I got hit once.”

Just as she said, Lewis’ face was distorted in pain after being hit on the shoulder by her. I think it would have been dislocated at that level. As soon as she finished speaking, a white light latched onto her shoulder like a leech. Lewis’ expression her her her, which had been in pain, soon cleared up. The recovery magic seemed to be effective.

“It seems like your skills are pretty good.”

“But isn’t that too much of a burden on that one black guy? If you get seriously injured like that, what happens next…”

“It’ll probably be okay.”

As soon as I finished speaking, a water cannon was fired from the tip of the blue-haired girl’s umbrella. The water gushing out from the end of the umbrella like a fire hose blew off her golem’s arm in one fell swoop.

“Wow, this is the first time I’ve seen water attribute magic used like that.”

“That girl is Laperine Nereid. She is the heir of the Nereid family. When it comes to water magic, they are evaluated to be at a similar level to third graders.”

The source is a game.

“That sounds like a golden spoon.”

“That is the correct answer.”

I turned the telescope to look at the puppy-eared wizard chanting fire magic behind him. This is the heroine who was salting with Lewis at the market. Was fire attribute magic your specialty?

“That female student is Shuri, a female student known to be an honor student in the magic department. “She may not be as strong as the Nereid family’s daughter, but she is more than capable of passing this level of testing.”

The source is also a game. Of course, we don’t know what level it is in reality.

“But that Rafe… Doesn’t it look like you and Shuri are getting along very well? “We are glaring at each other whenever we get the chance.”

“It has to be that way because we are competitors.”

“Aha.”

I don’t know how he seduced me in the period between the duel in the market and the final exams, but it seems like he managed to bring me in as a party member, like the main character. Originally, you would only be able to recruit Laperine as a colleague in the second semester.

Is the story twisted because Karina is not there?

“Then who is that priest?”

“I don’t know.”

“I don’t know?”

“I don’t know because I don’t know.”

There’s no way I know about extras that aren’t in the game. They just saw him using recovery magic and thought he was a priest.

“Then who is that girl?”

“I think it’s in the alchemy department.”

It’s hard to say that the student throwing the vial is not from the alchemy department.

To summarize, it is a rather subtle combination of one protagonist, two heroines, and two actors. The combination balance itself is ambiguous, but it has excellent firepower, so it is close to a typical deal-breaker party that uses firepower to attack.

Of course, since this dungeon is for the final exam, it would be okay to just finish it with no damage… But problems will inevitably arise in dimensional rifts.

“…Isn’t he a possessor after all?”

If I were a possessor, I wouldn’t have chosen a prosecutor who was ambiguous in many ways.

“What?”

“It’s nothing… We’ll move soon.”

I put the telescope in my arms and got up. Because at the end of my gaze, I saw tiny dots moving. I took some beef jerky out of my pocket, put it in my mouth, and followed the protagonist.

——————-

Is it time for a dimensional rift to open?

When we arrived at the final boss room, we were hiding near the entrance and spying on the main character and his group. The main character and his party bravely penetrated all the way to the 3rd underground floor and reached the boss room.

As I watch the party members selecting useful people and running around wondering who might not be the main character, the happiness circuit that tells me that if I do well, my plan to eat raw food in the main story may go smoothly, heats up like a portable hot pack.

“Is it open?”

“Just wait a little longer and it will open.”

“Really? “Give me one more piece of jerky.”

“It’s hot.”

Sif munched on the beef jerky I gave her and looked at the main character party through the binoculars. At first he seemed bored, but now he was watching it like he was watching a sports game. Wouldn’t it feel like this if you watched the game from the stands? I’m not sure because I’ve never actually been there.

“Hey, as expected, the magic power of the golden spoon is different. “I’ve never seen a wizard make a hole in a block of steel with a stream of water.”

“As expected, she is the daughter of the Nereid family.”

That was one of the basic skills in the game, so it probably won’t be much different here. I compared how different the knowledge in the game was from reality and observed the protagonist and his party dealing with the final boss of the test, the Steel Golem.

Lewis focuses on defense by blocking the steel golem’s attacks with his sword, Shuri accumulates damage with fire magic, and Laperine blocks the golem’s actions with a water cannon. And every time the unknown female student’s medicine bottle broke against the golem, smoke was rising from the golem’s body.

Is it like hydrochloric acid?

Anyway, it must be a drug that melts steel. I don’t know why you carry something like that.

“Oh, an arm is gone.”

“It will be over soon.”

As we expected, the battle ended in less than three minutes. When it first appeared, the majesty of the steel golem, broken and melted everywhere, was enough to make you feel sympathy.

Now that the golem has been captured, is it time for a crack to open?

“It will start happening now.”

“Do you even know that?”

“Yes.”

When the dimensional rift opens soon, I’ll have to get ready to jump in. I put the telescope in my backpack and locked it so that nothing could come out.

A dimensional rift will soon open…

…But why doesn’t it open?

I remember it was originally opened right after the steel golem was captured.

What happens if this doesn’t open?

“Johan, what happened to my hazard pay?”

“Wait. “I’m thinking about what happened now-“

It was the moment when I was about to fall into the swamp of worry again. As if to prove that God had not abandoned me, the dungeon began to shake. This was clearly a sign that a dimensional rift would open.

Otherwise-

“John!”

“Don’t shout. Like this-“

“John! Back! Back! Behind!”

At Sif’s screaming voice, I had no choice but to turn my head and look back.

Ah.

Fuck.

A blue whirlpool filled my vision.

That was my last memory.
