1.

The Demon King lives in the Academy.

Commonly known as Akama King.

I wonder if the author wanted to say that he is not a mass-produced academic filmmaker.

Or maybe they are just setting things up, or they have added strange settings.

It would be nice if they just clearly defined it as magic if it’s magic, swordsmanship if it’s swordsmanship.

I tried to build a worldview by using proper nouns.

Seongwi (盛位)

:a noble position or position

A unique characteristic granted to creatures in this world.

Whether you are a clan member, a named monster, or a demon, you are born with this status in your hand.

Nothing too grand.

The nature of the inspection = the method of the non-inspection.

Wizard’s Aspect = Arcane Magic.

You can just think of it as a trait that has been passed down from generation to generation.

Wouldn’t it be easier to explain if you saw Cariel standing in front of me?

“Cariel! Come forward and demonstrate!”

The instructor, who had bulging muscles and a manly impression, said.

A long, drawn line across the left eye stands out.

Today’s 2nd to 4th periods are competency tests.

This is an essential process to understand each person’s level and to conduct training at an appropriate level of difficulty in future training sessions.

In Korean terms, it would be like saying that it is a half-placement exam.

“Yes, Professor.”

He is the chief.

A blond handsome man steps forward, clutching his sword.

Although he appears reserved, his sad expression seems to create a unique atmosphere.

I was lucky enough to be assigned to the same class and was able to see this sight.

…or the author’s design.

“Hey, hey hey hey, the chief is cutting.”

“This is my first time seeing it in person… I’ve only heard about it…”

“What should I show you?”

Small talk pours out from the children sitting in groups of three or five on the wooden planks in the shape of steps.

The classroom suddenly became noisy due to the appearance of someone who suddenly changed the atmosphere in the middle of a boring class.

‘What are you all fussing about?’

Watching Kariel monopolize the girls’ attention in an instant, I say to myself things I don’t really mean.

Honestly, if you don’t envy that kind of popularity, you’re not human.

The lips would have stuck out in an ugly pout.

“The evaluation is simple. Pour your abilities into me. Don’t even think about hiding your strength. Children who are embarrassed to reveal their abilities and are sloppy will never grow.”

Just like the essay, this exam had strict requirements.

Don’t think about doing something too forceful, and do it properly.

Kariel accepted the test conditions, which might have been a little uncomfortable, without complaining.

However, detailed questions followed.

“Due to the nature of my power, I won’t be able to increase my power at this time… Is that okay?”

“It doesn’t matter. You don’t need that on the battlefield. Just show the best you can do now. Are you ready?”

“Yes, Instructor.”

“Don’t start.”

Kariel immediately grabbed his sword and looked at the instructor.

Look intently and familiarize yourself with the opponent’s form.

“…!!!!!!”

huh?

Something strange happened.

Kariel was frozen stiff, as if petrified.

Cold sweat runs down his blond hair, and you can see sweat running down the back of his neck.

And… the tip of the sword that was raised vertically is shaking?

“What is it? Kariel’s complexion…isn’t it so bad?”

“Are you nervous because there are so many people?”

“Oh no!”

As the questionable situation repeated itself, the noise from the surrounding children also began to grow louder.

Kariel is holding his sword tightly as if the noise doesn’t even reach his ears.

But even in this inexplicable situation, Cariel’s eyes were shining as if he had made a decision.

“Hoo, hoo, hooo…”

Kariel held his stance firm, panting heavily, until the tip of his sword finally stopped swinging and he assumed a perfect stance.

The veins on his arms, exposed through the gaps in his academy uniform, are visible.

He clenched his teeth so hard that you could see his neck and jaw shaking.

And the tip of the sword glowed.

Like a star that doesn’t lose its light even in the blue sky.

‘The Reincarnation of a Star.’

Cariel’s nickname.

The position of Cariel.

Star Sword

He is the protagonist of the ridiculous overbalance that puts stars in his sword.

The noise around them gradually died down.

-Keeeing!

Because the star captured by the tip of the sword gradually grew bigger and began to shine.

The ground beneath Cariel’s heels cracked, dust flew up, and cracks began to form.

His calf muscles were bulging so much that they were clearly visible even through his uniform.

Like a man carrying a star.

When the starlight grew large enough to obscure Cariel’s appearance.

“Haaapㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ!”

Kariel swung his sword with a shout.

Towards the instructor.

The sight was like a meteor, giving the illusion of cutting through space with light.

– Kwaaaa …

Shock waves and noises that are hard to believe were created by students.

He himself becomes a meteor and cuts down his enemies directly.

It looks like it could be given the nickname ‘Reincarnation of the Star’.

As my eyes were drawn to his splendid yet overwhelming appearance, a sudden thought crossed my mind.

for a moment.

What about the instructor?

How are you going to handle this attack!

“…Hmm. It’s a good attack.”

The thick dust cleared and the instructor’s figure was revealed.

“?????”

“What, what? You blocked that attack?”

The kids couldn’t hide their embarrassment, as if they were just as surprised as me.

‘What on earth is this…!?’

He said that he had blocked the blow with all his might with only his sword without any wounds.

The black sword blocked the blow and then broke.

Than the greatness of Camiel who broke the sword.

The identity of the instructor who blocked the attack without any injuries using a cheap sword from the academy was even more suspicious.

“However, it seems that he is still a rookie and lacks practical experience. He is technically perfect, but he has not yet learned how to fight. Please pay attention to this part and educate him.”

“Haa, haaak, yes, thank you, instructor….”

Kariel gasped for breath with a deathly expression.

In contrast, the instructor’s appearance, which showed no signs of agitation, was quite unusual.

He sits there with a tired expression, sweat dripping down his face.

…Did you really give it your all?

I never imagined the test would be this difficult.

At that moment, when I was about to go to Cariel out of curiosity and get some information,

“Ban! Come forward!”

What the fuck.

I was the main character.

“Yes, yes! Instructor!”

I understand that they are trying to create a rivalry in some way, but I feel aggrieved that they even have to interfere with this.

He stepped forward, unable to hide his bewildered and trembling expression.

As I was leaving, the kids around me gave me pitiful looks.

I’ve felt this way before.

The feeling of having to give my poorly presented speech right behind someone who got applause for their amazing quality, flowery speech, and natural gestures.

It is natural that they will be compared.

“He’s so unlucky.”

“Why are you taking the test behind the top student?”

“Ha, what should I do…”

I feel the burden of having to follow in the footsteps of someone who has left after showing an overwhelming performance.

The noise of children around me also continues to tickle my ears.

My muscles tense up in front of a lot of people and my attitude also stiffens.

‘…This won’t do.’

Unfortunately, time passed quickly and before I knew it, the instructor was standing in front of me.

Without even holding the sword properly.

‘Relax. I’m just doing the best I can.’

Even if you try to calm yourself down with words, how easy is that?

No matter how many times I tried to repeat it, my fingertips would tremble and I couldn’t calm down easily.

“Are you ready?”

“…Yes, Instructor.”

“Don’t start.”

The instructor gave the signal to begin, and I raised my sword without thinking.

Anyone can see that it is an awkward posture.

The tip of the sword is unsteady and sways, and anyone who looks at it can clearly see that he is nervous.

At that moment, the instructor looked into my eyes.

“…………Ugh!!!!!!”

!!!!!!!!

Oh, I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe.

A chill runs down my spine and takes over my entire body.

It feels like my body is being wrapped around with physical force, not at the level of feeling emotions.

Is this what it feels like to be held in the palm of a giant’s hand?

I feel a pressure that feels like my whole body is going to crumble.

A huge murder.

Kariel felt this.

That’s why I did my best to strike in order to suppress that murderous intent.

‘…That crazy guy endured this, this kind of thing, and showed off his sword like that?’

My mind is dizzy.

I feel like I can’t move an inch because the tiger is gaping open and my legs are numb in front of it.

The body doesn’t listen to you properly, and the mind becomes confused.

My muscles are tense and I can’t exert any force properly.

The rapid breathing shows no sign of abating and leads to hyperventilation.

………..Should I give up?

The thoughts that came to my mind before the ice age still come to mind.

It’s a thought that comes naturally to me because I’ve always run away.

My stupid habit of letting go before I even tried, when I was overcome with a terrible sense of defeat.

Even though I’m lucky enough to become the main character of this world, I still have that trash mentality.

‘Pathetic.’

When you are so shocked that you can see the whites of your eyes,

A fox-like girl appears, with red hair and pointed ears.

He sometimes tangles his hair with his sharp nails or grabs his head.

And then he starts diligently writing something down in a worn-out leather notebook.

‘……Taina.’

One of the heroines in Akama-Ou.

‘I, I….’

At that moment, the class’s mood changed in an instant.

His golden eyes flash with intelligence and determination.

Sweat drips down between his furrowed brows.

He holds onto his spirit, which seems to be melting from excessive murderous intent.

The hand holding the sword becomes stronger, and the lower body that connects the upper body to the ground also becomes firmer.

Raise your sword.

“…Huh? He’s also a top player?”

“Are you following Kariel?”

“It’s good to land a blow, but… can you handle it?”

All the noises that whisper in my ears enter my brain and cannot be expressed in words.

Just focus on your inner whisper.

A blue aura emanates from the raised sword.

‘Yes. If you had put stars in your sword…’

The sword is imbued with a blue, cold, yet bright black energy, like moonlight.

And draw one image.

‘I will put the moon in the sword.’

The speech is choppy.

My arms are shaking.

The sword, which had never been pushed to its limits before, screamed as if it was going to break.

I just held the sword in my hand with a wicked grip, as if it would fly away at any moment.

Clench your teeth.

The jaw muscles contract as if they are going to tear, eventually revealing the teeth.

It gives you enough strength to make your veins stand out here and there.

Taina.

The heroine and main character of Akama-Ou.

“Kuaaa …

He unleashes his sword energy with a roar that feels like it’s going to tear apart.

A crescent moon, shining blue like a broken jewel, flies across the ground and sky.

The sharp shape of the moon engulfs the person.

The scars on the moonlight shards on Ban’s body show traces after cutting through the floor.

-Kwaaaa …

A noise so loud that it was hard to believe that the sword had blocked the black energy was eating away at the son-in-law.

Van Helix.

King Akama’s,

“What, what is it…”

“Is that the moon…?”

“…..”

There was a commotion and a cloud of dust, and the instructor opened his mouth.

“……What are you.”

He is the main character and a warrior.
