The next day.
The long-awaited Class Placement's results.
It was a day where everyone from the nobles of the magic family to the elite called geniuses had no choice but to be nervous.
Everyone received a notice that the Class Placement's results had been posted on the central bulletin board outside the academy. The students were gathered there and chattering.
The bulletin board sparked magically, like a digital neon monitor, and the names of over a thousand new students appeared on it.
'Ugh, can’t you just inform the results to students one by one by letter?'
I had no idea what they were doing there, but since it was the academy’s custom to reveal the class Placement publically, there was nothing I could do about it.
“Oh, is he that Baek Yu-Seol?”
“I heard he got 0 points during the magic skill demonstration…”
“It’s really amazing. If that’s enough to get into Stella, then I don't know how the academy will survive?”
“No way. If you think about the lineup this year, no one would believe it, right?”
Some students recognized me and murmured.
There were geniuses who stood out exceptionally from the first day, and there were cases where students like me, who scored 0 points, got showered with unwanted attention.
‘There’s nothing I could do about the magic skill demonstration though…’
Upon entering the school, there was a simple magic skills demonstration to see what kind of magic skill one used as a special skill.
And I used Flash.
It was a basic magic skill, and no one used it anymore.
Because of it, the instructor’s expression became cold, and he attentively examined me.
“More importantly, if I’m being bullied like this, do I have to spend my school life without friends?”‘
It was a bit disappointing, but I did not intend to be friendly with anyone in the first place.
‘Hmmm……’
I found Class F first.
Obviously, Class F was the group with the lowest-ranking students, and Class A was the group of the top-ranked students.
Surprisingly.
Class F did not have my name.
“Eh?”
'What? It can’t be true. Since I only solved three questions during the Class Placement exam, there is no way that I can go beyond class E, so it must be class F.'
'But the fact that I don’t have my name in class F… '
‘It's crazy. Did I fail?’
Very rarely, even after entering school, there were cases in which students were expelled for failing to take the exam properly…
No matter how easy it was. Starting from the Placement Test was a bit too much for me.
It was so absurd that I was blankly looking through Class F again and again, and I heard students muttering something as if they were shocked.
“… Baek Yu-Seol? That kid with a failing score, why the hell?”
“What? Isn’t that wrong? Don’t you think there’s something strange about this?”
“It’s absurd… Young Master Yuslek has been preparing since he was 7 years old to get in there. Yet he's in class A despite being 29th ranked…”
“Kyle, ranked 17th after getting a perfect score in theory, was also assigned to class A, why?”
Something was strange.
I checked the arrangement of the S class, which was ignored by me, and I could not help but open my eyes wide.
[S-0 Class Baek Yu-Seol]
'What?'
'Why is my name over there?'
“I think it was a mistake…?”
Class S was special. Unlike Class F to Class A, it literally meant that only students with something special would be there.
Considering that most of the historically famous great men or even most of the popular mages were in class S, there should be something special about it, making it stand out in the magic society.
One couldn’t get into that place simply by studying well.
Just like that 29th ranked student who was transferred into Class A. It meant that not anyone could really get into Class S.
It was very unusual for me to be assigned in class S, the place desired and dreamed by every student of the Stella Academy, the most prestigious magic academy.
I honestly had no idea if this was a bad thing or a good thing.
Despite being placed in Class F, I could have contacted the main characters of Class S at any time if I distributed my lecture timetable well.
However, if I get placed in the S class, the time I spend with the main characters would increase. That means, wouldn't it also increase the time I interfere with the Protagonist plotline? It was a sin I was desperately avoiding. It would ruin my plan to stay lowkey.
‘That’s right, I'm sure I will manage somehow, but really…’
I thought for a long time while stroking my lower lip, but in the end, I couldn’t shake off the S class, so there was only one answer.
Even when I enter class S, I must behave like a hibernating animal with no signs of life, and do my job properly.
‘Well, it’ll work out somehow.’
I decided to think positively.
