211. Entrance Exam and Valentines Day [8]

I successfully repelled the juniors of Gran Swordsmanship Academy and greeted the examinees cheerfully, trying not to make them uneasy.

「Nice to meet you, everyone. I am Allen Rodore, and I serve as the chief examiner for today’s entrance examination. And they are Ria Vesteria and Rose Valencia, who will be assisting me today.」

As I briefly introduced them, the two bowed lightly.

The examinees realized that the exam was about to start, immediately stopped talking and looked at us with a serious expression.

(The gaze of three thousand people is indeed quite much.)

While being under a strong sense of pressure and tension, I tried to explain as calmly as possible.

「As written in the application guidelines, we will conduct the『General Examination』and the『Special Examination』this year. The general examination consists of three parts: physical ability, swordsmanship, and interview. This is exactly the same format as usual, and we’ll give a brief explanation before the exam starts.」

After pausing for a brief moment, I continue to talk about the special exam that will be conducted only this year.

「And as for the special exam, this is a one-on-one mock battle between me and the examinee. The examinees who are able to land a hit on me, will pass immediately. And unfortunately for those who lose, today’s exam will be over on the spot.」

When I said that,

「「「……」」」

There was a big shock among the examinees.

「Just because you didn’t pass the special exam doesn’t necessarily lead to failure. The vice-director over there will score your fight and if it reaches the passing criteria set by Thousand Blade Academy, of course, you will pass.」

When I added a supplementary explanation, they patted their chests with relief.

「Also, this is not an『actual battle』but an『exam』. Of course, I will be holding back moderately, and I won’t launch any form of lethal attack from my side. Naturally, you would have to be prepared for injuries to a certain extent, but… In that case, after the battle is over, I will treat you with this『darkness』immediately, so don’t worry.」

I slashed my left hand shallowly and immediately cured the cut with darkness.

The next moment,

「I-It’s out! It’s the darkness that defeated Idol Luxmaria at the Sword King Festival.」

「It’s beautiful… It was worth coming here today.」

「It’s amazing. Is it the healing ability of darkness? I heard it heals instant death wounds, the curse of monsters and demons, and every other thing. It has a reputation for being the highest level as a recovery-type soul dress.」

「And it seems that almost all attacks towards the user are automatically defended with a『dark robe』?」

「Furthermore, a single attack seems to have the power to destroy Thousand Blade Academy, or so I’ve heard!」

「It looks really cool and the performance is perfect. Man, I’m so jealous.」

Their eyes were gleaming with enthusiasm.

By demonstrating the effect of healing of darkness, I seem to have been able to reduce their anxiety a little.

After completing the explanation, I exchanged looks with Ria and Rose. They smiled gently and nodded in response.

(Fuu, thank goodness…)

It seems that there were no deficiencies in the current explanation.

I secretly exhaled a sigh of relief and turned towards the clock tower.

(All right, we’re right on time.)

Although there was unexpected trouble along the way, there is no disturbance in the schedule so far.

It can be said that everything is going well so far.

「Then, students who wish to take the general exam should follow the instructions of Ria and Rose. If you would like to take the special exam, please remain here.」

When I clapped my hands, the majority of students gathered in front of Ria and Rose.

「Then, Allen. We’re heading to the general exam site.」

「Leave it to us.」

「Aa, good luck.」

The two of them said, and took along the majority of the examinees with them.

(…Even so, a lot of them remained behind.)

Spread before me were swordsmen filled with fighting spirit in their eyes.

(But, I didn’t think there would be over three hundred people.)

Sensei said,「There shouldn’t be too many of them who would recklessly want to fight Allen. By my calculation, only about ten would be left. The other students would be follow-the-crowd types who simply want to see the『real Allen Rodore』」, but…

As far as this situation is concerned, her predictions are far off the mark.

(Sensei also said,「As long as you don’t use〈Zeon〉, I don’t mind how wild you go…」, but…)

I’m not going to make that much of a mess.

As a result of secretly consulting with No. 18-san, I settled on the conclusion to seal『technique』such as Flying Shadow and Yatagarasu.

「Well then, we’re going to start the special exam. Whoever is ready, please tell me your exam number and name.」

When I said that, one swordsman immediately gave his name.

「Examinee number 2521, Valen Semgard!」

「Let’s get started.」

This is how the special exam between me and the examinees began.
