I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy

I was bound to be a little more nervous about the peaceful S class students than I thought.

It was said that the number of students in Class A who went to the principal office to question my existence in Class S had already exceeded ten. It did not matter to people that they could not get here, instead, they were having hard time convincing themselves that a trash student like me was in S class.

But, the surprising thing was that they all got the same answer.

‘Baek Yu-Seol deserves to attend Class S.'

That’s right.

So I had decided to take it easy. To be honest, Class F was full of idiots. As long as I am living again, I want to sit in the S class.

Of course, I wonder if it was going to be as easy as it seemed…

Every class placement depended on the rank of each test. There were times when F class students succeeded in climbing back up to A, and on the contrary, there were times when genius students fell from A to F.

There was no exception in class S. However, once one come up to class S, it was very rare to go down again.

Come to think of it, there was one male student who stayed in Class A all the time in the game and barely made it to Class S later. I could not recall his name, but I did remember he was not a particularly impressive guy.

Anyway, in the midst of silence as we observed each other, I took out a small box from my pocket and opened it.

[Stella’s Pocket Watch]

A watch that proved the identity of student in Stella, the most prestigious magic academy. It was a very special item that was treated much higher than any other magic warrior identification.

Did I say that if I had this, I would receive great treatment? It wasn’t something I earned with my efforts, but I still felt proud.

After such a short time passed, forty students gathered in the classroom. There were only 40 people in the auditorium, which could easily accommodate two hundred people, so it felt somewhat empty.

At exactly eight o’clock, the front door of the classroom opened and someone entered.

It was Lee Hanwol, the professor in charge of Class S. With just his appearance, the air calmed down. In the overwhelming atmosphere, some students gulped nervously.

With dark skin, countless scars smudged all over his face, and his massive body full of muscles, he seemed like he would kill someone.

So, it was difficult to make eye contact properly.

“Nice to meet you all. I am Lee Hanwol.”

No explanation was needed.

A 7th-class magic warrior, Lee Hanwol.

His reputation was resounding. He led almost hopeless battles to victory in numerous battlefields and dungeons, and rumors spread that the number of Dark Demons he successfully hunted reached four digits.

When it comes to the ‘Combat Mages’, they were treated like savages until 500 years ago. Magic was mostly academic, and it depicted the image of a scholar who sat at a desk and studied elegantly.

But, it was different in modern times. It was an era where combat mages despised scholarly ones.

In this world, even now, the Dark Demons were constantly opening the gates by drilling holes in reality, and the mages were blocking them.

Therefore, it was natural that the professor in charge of S-Class was Lee Hanwol.

It could be seen that the mages in the Stella came to learn how to fight.

Lee Hanwol's eyes slowly examined each students, and finally, they met with mine.

“… A lot of outstanding students are gathered here. And, a very unusual student.”

The former would refer to students other than me, and the latter sentence was meant for me. Unless one was an idiot, he should have understood.

Either way, I accepted Lee Hanwol’s gaze with ease.

“As you all know, this is an academy that trains combat mages. As so-called ‘magic warriors’, you will go through advanced courses for the next three years.”

As Lee Hanwol began to speak, all the students focused. His voice had a spirit that enveloped the entire classroom.

“Innumerable seniors gave up. Because the enemies we have to deal with are powerful, and the academy’s classes are harsh. I do not expect y’all to come along. However, I want you to show your will to the best of your ability.”

“In this world, everything reverts to magic. The technology behind all the objects used in daily life, as well as dungeons and gates, are all made of magic, and even demons are magical creatures.”

“The source of life is also magic; even the reason why clouds float, and we can walk on the ground is interpreted as magic.”

“It is the duty of our magic warriors to stop the Dark Demons, a group of mages who try to stain our world with the Underworld."

‘It’s not my duty.’

I was just sitting in this academy to survive, and honestly, I did not even know if I could endure the training.

“Some students have been admitted to this academy because of their obligation to eradicate the Dark Demons, and there are other students who have entered because of money. Whatever the reason, it doesn’t matter. As long as you have the courage to fight against them with a firm will…”

Just when Lee Hanwol was about to deliver a wonderful speech.

The back door opened, and a student barged in.

“…… ”

Every students’ attention was focused on the newcomer. From the back door, a woman with long silver hair, no, a girl, walked in with an imposing gait.

It was Hong Bi-Yeon.

‘Late……?’

She was late. For someone who valued principles more than anyone else, it was pretty unusual. Noticing closely, I found that her cheeks were flushed red.

‘What happened already?'

I had a rough idea of her family’s circumstances. I did not know the details, so I tried to check her details with the Sentient Spec in my mind, just in case.

[Hong Bi-Yeon Adolevit]

[Villainess]

[Eats illegal candies]

[Prefers being alone sometimes]

[Drinks only Drip-Coffee.]

[Her mother’s a bad bitch]

[Unconditional death]

After confirming that, I took a deep breath. There was limited information I could grasp from it. In the beginning, Hong Bi-Yeon was a famous character, and most of the information written here was already known information.

'Why wasn’t I a little more diligent in the past?’

It would have been a great help if I had recorded it in more detail.
