The Birth of a True Hero
Episode 10 Entrance exam


I spent the night with our butler at an inn near where the academy was located, as the entrance examination of the academy would begin tomorrow.


Then the day finally arrived. I stepped my foot into the academy gate and saw about the exam. The exam is just a written exam because magic will be officially studied when it is officially a student in the academy.


I lined up with dozens of first-year students who were about to take the entrance exam today.


But as I had expected, the sharp gazes directed at me were very clear I felt even though I did not see them directly.


Then, suddenly a boy came walking towards me and stood before me.


"Wah,wah,vaaah. Who is this man before me, isn't this a famous boy?"


"What a noble disgrace that can't use magic here. Are you lost to stray to this place" he said while looking at me with his haughty gaze.


I just silently heard his words, the other prospective students began to smile at hearing the boy speak as he pleased.


I don't care what this child says, because I who feel grown up will not be provoked by that stupid provocation.


"Are you deaf, answer if anyone asks you a stupid boy. Didn't your parents teach you sopa-santun" he asked, starting to get emotional.


Hearing that made me a little upset. But I kept it in because I didn't want to cause any trouble on my first day.


"Chew.. Are you talking to me?" he looks confused because of my words.


"Ohhh, I'm sorry. I thought you were talking about yourself" I replied with a cynical smile.


Hearing that, the disciples laughed and made the boy in my arms very angry.


"How dare you insult me ! are you tired of living a loser !" he got angry and grabbed my collar.


"Hey you guys over there stop messing around "the professor ordered to stop the boy.


He took my collar off and walked away from me.


" Look at you, you won't calm down at this academy." he threatened as he went to the front row with a red face still filled with emotion..


The professors started the lecture on the activities of the academy and the activities that we will do during our 6 years in the academy. When he finished, he told us to go into the exam room.


"Alright now you will all enter the building where the written exam took place" the professor said.


We all immediately went to the room where the written exam was done.


We do the exam for 1 hour and in the afternoon the results will come out. For people who graduate will remain in the academy and live in dormitories from now on.


For those who do not graduate can only resign and try again next year.


I saw my name was 3rd in the written exam which meant I passed. I was quite surprised by the results of this exam, because all this time I only focused on learning my manners and lack of time in studying theory.


About half of the participants passed this exam. I also saw the arrogant boy smiling at me because he saw me graduate.


"Well for the participants who escaped, you will go to the first building, that's where you will start living with your roommates in this academy" said the professor who oversaw our exams.


In 1 room, we had 6 roommates. Then the unexpected coincidence was that the boy was apparently rooming with me. Shortly after the professors left he and his 2 friends closed the door and started to bother me again.


I wonder why every bully is mostly made up of 3 people. 1 chairman with 2 nuts.


What's with 3 people, what's special about three. Why do they have to my three minds filled with this ridiculous thing.


"Keep out of here" he said, telling the other child to leave.


Then he approached me.


"Hey crazy boy, did you forget what you said to me in the meeting hall. Don't expect me to let you go even if you cry for mercy! " he said with a face full of emotion.


"Look down, aren't you the one who said shit?" answer me with a smile.


I dodged and punched him in the stomach until he knelt down.


His other friends started attacking me but ended up the same as their chief curled up on the floor.


"How dare you do this to me" he said, curled up on the floor while holding his stomach.


Regardless of what he said, I kicked him in the face with a bruise.


"Tu_snack..." "Out" my leg hit his head until now his mouth was filled with blood.


I approached her and kicked her back in the stomach and stomped her head against the floor.


"Hiiii" the faces of the children who saw it became goosebumps of fear.


"Dare to? why should I be afraid of a brat as brash and arrogant as you. A kid who talks a lot but has nothing like you. If I don't remember the rules of the academy that will trouble me, I've cut your tongue and thrown it into the training hall for the other stupid students to witness" I replied with a threatening look.


"You, how dare I do this to a noble of a higher rank than you, if there were no magic barrier in this dormitory you would have burned to ashes. Just wait for my revenge. I'll make you pay for all this many times over "he shouted while still curled up on the floor.


"Let's continue your arrogant words and continue to provoke me and soon this thing will penetrate your throat" I said as I pointed my magic dagger at his neck.


He looked at the thing around his neck.


"What is this, is this a dagger, why it glows and feels hot" he said in surprise.


"Well, why do I have to answer your question, don't you want to grill me? Let's try to do that, I wonder if your magic will roast me or this dagger that first pierces your throat" I said with a laugh.


He who felt that dagger that was already stuck to his neck had already started slashing his neck was instantly scared to death.


"I'm sorry, I'm wrong don't do that please" she replied in fear.


"Why should I listen to you, come on, instead of you just saying bad things about me and going to get rid of me? where did your arrogant face go" said I who pressed my dagger.


the two children who were with us in the room, were speechless and just looked on in fear.


"I'm sorry, please, I'll do anything for you. I Please don't hurt me, I'm the one who's wrong, I'm the one who's stupid" she said, crying in fear.


He even peed his own pants.


"Bas disgusting" said I who saw it.


"Pity me. I really won't offend you anymore. My mum... My mother would cry when she heard I was hurt" she said, crying regretfully.


After hearing that, I turned the dagger back into mana and absorbed it back into my body.


Actually I was just testing whether the magic barrier would have the same effect on where ordinary witches and manaku were, but it turned out that my premonition was correct.


The magic barrier is unable to absorb the mana I put out.


The way the magic barrier worked was indeed by corrupting the mana reaction that would turn into magic and absorb it into the magic barrier special stone.


But not with my mana, my more condensed mana could not be elaborated even with the magic barrier.


The battered arrogant boy was still curled up on the ground and did not dare to raise his head.


That's how I dominated my dorm room, and then I forbade the people involved from telling anyone about it.


After they all nodded. I healed the boy's throat and bruised his face with my new skill.


They were very surprised but dared not say anything, let alone ask me.
