“Choose something else.”

“Ah… Yes.”

At the sudden voice of Northmund, Han Sejun unconsciously put down the katana he was holding in his hand.

Confused, he raised his head and looked around, and quickly realized that the voice was not directed to him.

I followed his gaze on the podium and saw that he was connected to a girl with long hair, and the person who had received the comment was looking downcast, whining and putting the huge sword back in the box.

─Giggles. Look at how I chose the great sword to follow the dean’s example.

─You can’t even objectively understand yourself. He’s just a crazy kid.

─As a man, it’s too heavy for me to lift, but a great sword? Phew.

I felt jealous again, but now was not the time to show it.

Sejun was about to pick up the katana he had put down, but then turned his eyes to another box.

What was unusual was that most of the swords were quite long. Visually, most of them were long swords exceeding 1.2 meters in length. Isn’t it probably to gain a distance advantage in battles with monsters?

Han Sejun picked up a suitable long sword.

A moderate feeling of weight was transferred to the hand. It was heavy to hold with one hand, but it was manageable to swing with both hands.

‘Dean Northmund wields a greatsword that looks several times heavier with one hand.’

Han Sejun quietly thought about the enormous difference in skill between himself and Northmund and swung his longsword.

It’s not bad. It has an appropriate length, an appropriate grip, and is not that heavy so you can swing it freely with both hands, and when you use this ability, it is an appropriate weight that you can swing it with one hand.

‘Shall we do this?’

─Bung bung bung.

I made a decision in my mind and was about to sheath the sword when I heard a loud sound of cutting through the air behind me.

─Oh! After all, a leader!

─That’s great, Mr. Gray.

When I looked back, I saw Gideon lightly swinging a greatsword as tall as himself. Every time the great sword is swung, the sound of a blast tearing the air is heard, and the wind created by him is transmitted to Han Se-jun’s location far away.

Those in his faction looked at him with envy, and outsiders also looked surprised at the sight of him wielding a two-meter long sword.

Looking at its size, it must be quite heavy, but isn’t it like swinging a rolled up newspaper?

That’s great, Gideon.

No matter what the opposing faction is, their skills are worthy of recognition. That’s what I thought.

The auditorium is now full of people.

Although this situation seems dangerous at first glance as he is swinging his sword around, the fact that Dean Northmund does not say anything means that his condition is stable.

I guess it means that his hands are amateurish and his sword is not at the level where it could fly away.

Deciding that he would choose this long sword anyway, Han Sejun held the scabbard in his hand and headed towards the instructor on the right.

“Form is.”

A small voice that sounded like it was talking to itself came from somewhere.

“Now… Mr. Jang.”

“It’s definitely not pure power. It seems like he has developed a body strengthening ability, but that’s stupid. A weapon that suits you means a weapon that you can swing properly on a daily basis, but it is foolish to choose a weapon that can only be wielded properly if you use a special ability. One day, that choice will strangle you.”

You can tell who it is just by hearing their voice. A voice that seems a bit intimidating and a confident voice full of confidence.

However, unlike the usual soft-spoken tone, the content was quite extreme.

Is he doing this on purpose? If she were perfect as usual, there would be no need to criticize the head of the opposing faction here.

Was there a political calculation involved? Han Se-jun became restless as he watched the Gideonites who heard her words frown at her.

Han Se-jun wanted to stop her right away, but he felt that doing so would make the atmosphere even more awkward, so he suppressed that feeling with superhuman patience.

“What? How dare that bitch say—”

“Stop it.”

Although the voice was small, it seemed to be clearly heard by those around her. A brown-haired man tried to swear at her, but was immediately stopped by someone.

The owner of the voice was the person responsible for the sword. Short hair and protruding muscles. He was a huge, intimidating man whose height was over 190 cm.

“If you react to each and every trivial provocation, only this side will be in trouble.”

Gideon then turns his gaze to look in front of the podium. Jang A-hyun instantly raised his evaluation to one level.

Thinking that he would be fooled by his unusual provocation due to his muscular and brain-like appearance like that of a sports player, I scratched his insides to my heart’s content.

In fact, she knew Gideon’s violent and impulsive nature and thought he would be very angry here.

In the past, he had seen people who opposed him secretly be called behind the dormitory and severely lynched as a group.

He who committed the great rudeness of losing his temper in front of Northmund will suffer a huge blow to his image, just like he did on the first day of the magic science class.

However, she looked surprised when she saw that he was hiding his sharp and violent personality and still acting like an ideal, benevolent leader.

“I’m sorry. I was just talking to myself, but I guess you heard me. I apologize.”

“Yes. There doesn’t seem to be any malicious intent, so I accept it. But there is one thing you are mistaken about. Today’s weapon selection is not just about deciding which weapon to use now.”

He made a big mark on the floor with the great sword hanging over his shoulder. Because it was in a sheath, the floor did not break or anything, but a heavy thumping sound rang out.

“The weapon to be used for the next three years is to be decided in this Ellada, not now. That’s why I just chose a weapon based on my future level.”

A mad answer. It was a declaration that meant that in the future, this level of weight could be handled without special abilities.

People around him begin to applaud his boldness.

Clap clap clap.

A guy who appears to be a nearby follower cheers like crazy and applauds loudly.

─Mr. Gray! cool!

─Leader! Great! awesome!

“It’s noisy!”

In that moment, the cheers and enthusiasm were instantly extinguished by someone’s words. At the sound of the voice coming from the podium, the atmosphere in the auditorium immediately cools and a chill flows through it.

“Gray. How many times have I told you that I have talent, but you can’t see anything? Have you forgotten what I first said when I stood on the podium a little while ago? Is your head even an ornament? Understand the mood, foolish!”

“Sin… Sorry, Professor!”

A Dragonian Fear mixed with magic mixed with a loud scolding.

He, who was standing in the center of the pier, fell to his knees and suffered from the pressure that he could not handle with his bare body and the feeling of the entire space being crushed.

With the sound of my knees hitting, the greatsword I was holding falls to the floor, emitting a metallic clanging sound.

Although Han Sejun was out of his peer’s concentration range, he couldn’t help but feel his legs shaking.

The only thing I could do was to slam the longsword in my hand on the floor and hold on so as not to fall.

He saw a foreign girl standing in front of him lose consciousness and fall on his chest. But unfortunately, he couldn’t afford to accept her either.

All I could do was grit my teeth and hold on.

“Get out of here right now!”

As soon as his words fell, Gideon began to crawl, shaking, without even being able to respond.

It was a very humiliating and insulting sight, but no one found fault with it. Because there is no one here who can afford that much right now.

All the instructors could do was hold their chests and lean against the wall.

After a while, after what seemed like years to the parties involved, although it was no more than a few seconds in time, Northmund released the peer.

At the same time, numerous gasps filled the auditorium.

People who had messed up their pants were crying, and people who were having trouble breathing due to the pressure that was squeezing their lungs were breathing hard.

“Treat the lives of others. This is the world you guys will protect. These are the people of the world you will protect. Unless you understand the value of your life, you are nothing but dangerous elements and not a shield for humanity. Keep in mind.”

After sighing for a moment, Northmund immediately used teleportation and disappeared from the auditorium, leaving only silence.

I had to hold on tight to my spirit. After doing that for a while, my vision, which had turned white, gradually returned and I could see the auditorium.

Gideon had already left the auditorium, and his followers were flocking out, looking around.

Since one of the two people who caused this situation had disappeared, Han Sejun looked at the other one. She was surprisingly resolute and stood firmly, leaning against the wall of the auditorium.

Her forehead was full of cold sweat and her hair was matted, as if she had secretly pulled it out, but she was standing strong on her two legs.

The other one… His body was twisted and he was speechless. The cute hime-cut was soaked with sweat and stuck to her hair, making her hair look weird, and her long skirt was turned inside out and up on top of her head.

A strange object exposing the lower body. That was Han Sejun’s impression of her.

Even though Jang A-hyeon was standing there, she didn’t seem to have come to her senses yet, so as Han Se-jun was approaching to help the bystanders take care of the ugly sight, a red-haired man was seen approaching Jang A-hyeon from somewhere.

The red hair combined with the same style made him look like a strong gangster.

“Phew. We did everything we promised, but things got too big.”

“Yes? ah… iced coffee. I see.”

“Do you think it’s in bad condition? To be honest, I’m not normal right now, so please excuse me. ha… Let’s stop using the Dean from now on. Whatever it is, it’s beyond your imagination.”

“… .”

A red-haired man said those words and staggered out of the auditorium.

Maybe that guy is Jimmy Ramirez. He has the ability to ignite and is the head of the Ramirez faction.

The moment I realized it. Sejun Han realized that the situation that had just occurred was the result of collusion between Ahyeon Jang and Ramirez.

‘I see, I was wondering why the faction was maintained with only 5 people.’

Even if you gather only those with special abilities, how can five people fight against dozens of people?

This can be achieved because there is someone looking after your back. Gideon’s faction was the largest and most powerful, so it seemed like there was a tacit alliance between the other factions.

“Then, I will continue with registration. If you have chosen a weapon, please come here and write your name.”

Some students came to their senses after hearing those words and resumed registering their weapons. Han Sejun saw the scene, sighed a little, and began to take care of Nakajima’s condition.

The moment I held the end of the skirt that covered my face in my hand and pulled it down, I made eye contact with her, who had already come to my senses, and both of our faces turned red.

Han Se-jun imagined being hit in the face with a scream like in a cartoon, but what he expected did not happen and the situation between the two only became more awkward as time stopped.

“Uhm… .”

Ignoring the stinging stares from someone who kept piercing his back, he hesitantly picked up his long sword and headed out of the auditorium.
