Academy Munchkin Enslaved

17 – TS… I have to complete the TS!

According to Professor Lydia’s explanation, the news has already been sent to all students that a slave will participate in this subjugation.

Most of you probably know that the slave is me because of what happened with Yulia before.

“As expected, the 5th tier magic is still too much… Is the 4th hierarchy the limit?”

Since I no longer have to hide that I can use magic, I was checking my magic after finishing the things I had to do at dawn.

As expected, the magical power and accident acceleration method were still insufficient to use the 5th tier in actual combat.

The magics that can be used without gaps even in real battle are up to the 4th tier.

However, in terms of efficiency, it was easier to score points in the subjugation system by accurately using low-ranking magic.

Although it is said to be a subjugation system, it is a tournament held at the cadet level.

It was unlikely that an urgent situation would arise to the extent of overusing 4th or 5th tier magic.

“Insufficient information… “

It is said to be a subjugation system, but it certainly wasn’t just about catching monsters.

As an unspecified number of cadets competed in one space, it was clear that there would be various rules and devices.

And surely the cadets would have information about the subjugation system.

Because there will be some guidance in advance and some information obtained from seniors.

I confidently said that I would win the subjugation system, but I could have struggled if I went in without any information.

“I don’t have confidence in magic.”

As a result of stealing the cadets’ practice classes from time to time, it seemed unlikely that even a 3rd year would lose to them with their magic skills.

For the most part, they could barely even calculate third-tier magic.

I didn’t think it would compete with me, who could already calculate and use all the 4th tier magic.

But the important thing is, as I said, the asymmetry of information. Getting information was still important.

I went to find the only person I knew who could give me meaningful information about the subjugation system.

I’m not a trustworthy person, but for now, it’s better than nothing.

– Mr. Kana. Return to the back of the building.

2Nd tier magic. Wind Whisper.

A magic that allows you to transmit your voice only to the person you want within a certain distance.

Through this magic, I summoned Kana, who was being teased by the other cadets during lunch, to the back of her main building, where she was rarely seen.

Hearing my voice from her, Kana quickly turned around, but a female cadet grabbed her and wouldn’t let go.

Looking at the situation, she didn’t seem to be bothering Kana, she just seemed to be petting her.

Certainly, the tickling Kana must be cute. If you don’t know what TS pervert is.

After waiting patiently for her, Kana, who had been being teased by the cadets for a long time, came running to where I was.

“Whoa… Everyone keeps acting like a nuisance! I’m going to TS everyone!”

“I don’t think that will happen… “

With her hair messed up, Kana came running haughtily.

Seeing him play TS in the middle of that, all I could do was laugh.

“Ah! It was you too! It’s a transfer! Participating in the subjugation! What is that all about! He! TS is!”

It seems that Kana also heard that I was participating in the subjugation.

Her

Thanks to her, she seemed very confused between him and her identity, and I was a bit hesitant about how to explain her facts to her.

“For now… You are great. I risked transferring to the academy and participated in the subjugation. The truth is, I had a talent for magic.”

I didn’t say that the reason why my talent was revealed was that I was the one who submitted the answer to the contest.

If that happened, it seemed like I wouldn’t be able to handle it.

“That, then that person! What happened to TS!”

“That person… He is like a teacher to me. But as I said, his identity cannot be revealed. Because you don’t want that.”

“No! TS… I have to complete TS!!”

“Kuh, keuh… Lower your voice. Anyway, his identity cannot be revealed. And no matter how much he is, he is not at the level of being able to use 7th tier magic. Like any wizard, the 7th tier is impossible to even calculate.”

For now, he speaks as if the person of Kana’s imagination is there.

Somehow it felt like cheating an innocent child, but it was easy to use Kana through him.

“That, that could be… But if he is he, someday… !”

“That’s right. Maybe someday we will be able to calculate the 7th tier magic.”

“Then… !”

“But of course. Even so, TS research will not be prioritized. As you know, 7th tier trance magic. Because no one will know the research value of TS. Perhaps TS is already out of the wizards’ interest.”

“I know that much! That’s why I’m not asking him like this! The one who is the pioneer of the trans world!”

That’s why it’s not. He doesn’t even want to study anything trans.

“Kuh, keuh… anyway. He said he would consider the value of researching TS if Kana-nim cooperates with me in this subjugation system. It will probably take a long time, but the difference between making up your mind and not is the difference between heaven and earth.”

“Oh, oh oh… ! Good! Because we will cooperate specially! What should I do?”

“I don’t need anything else. You just need to tell us the information about the subjugation system.”

I can’t believe it, but Kana is also a third year student.

She must have already gone through the subjugation system twice, and the information will be abundant.

“That’s easy! Only… Isn’t that enough for him to tell you?”

“That, that’s because he’s a first-year student… There is little information about the academy.”

“Ehh… ?”

A sharp point that is not like Kana.

She gave me a slightly suspicious look, but she immediately retracted it.

“The subjugation system is carried out all at once, regardless of grade level… Outside the academy site, professors directly create a field to proceed.”

“Hmm… That means that there could actually be injuries.”

“Right. However, faculty members are always monitoring the situation of the subjugation system, and all participants are provided with a scroll that allows them to give up the subjugation system and exit the field at any time, so few people actually get injured. In a dangerous situation, the professors themselves step in.”

“Um… “

Well, in a competition where all students compete, if she isn’t confident in her skills, she probably won’t overdo it.

Kanamaro says that most first-year students who have no practical experience give up early and use scrolls.

“And, since the level of difficulty increases as the subjugation system progresses, they usually give up on their own at the timing beyond their level. That’s how I get instructions from professors.”

“Does this mean that the monsters that appear become stronger as time passes?”

“Right. The more monsters that appear in the later stages, the higher the points you can get, so those who are skilled don’t bother to lose their strength in the early stages. And again… ”

There were actually various devices in the subjugation system.

To summarize the important things, first of all, as time passes, stronger monsters appear.

That means you can hold on to the end, catch the most powerful monster, and reverse the point.

And it is said that there are fruits that restore mana all over the field, but the number of fruits decreases as the subjugation system progresses.

As the subjugation system is going on for a long time, there is no limit to the total amount of magic power.

It seems to be getting into hardcore mode as the second half progresses.

Also, it seems that the size of the field gradually decreases in the second half.

This means that you will be unable to avoid monsters.

It also meant that the cadets who survived until the second half had already reached the stage where they could be put into practice as they are.

“And once, there is a big wave. Most of them drop out then.”

“‘Big Wave’?”

“It literally summons a huge number of monsters. It’s usually an event that occurs in the middle of the subjugation system, but it’s an amount that’s hard to handle alone. Usually, during the big wave moment, the cadets team up and survive.”

“You mean team play is allowed?”

“There are no restrictions on team play in the first place. Since it’s an individual match anyway, there’s no benefit from playing as a team. However, in order to survive in the Big Wave, we have no choice but to join forces. Many cadets drop out in the process. If there is a cadet with no skills on the same team, it will only get in the way. In the end, the cadets who couldn’t form a team are eliminated from the Big Wave.”

“Ummm… “

Big Wave. I don’t know how many monsters are coming out, but looking at him talking like this, it seems like it would be difficult for him alone.

As for me, there are no cadets to form a team with, so I think I need to think about this.

“And finally, there is one hidden rule that changes every year. I don’t know that either. It will be announced in the middle of the subjugation. Also, if you take damage above a certain level from monsters, the scroll is automatically used, so there is no need to worry about dying.”

“Roughly… All right. Thank you thanks for letting me know Does Kana-sama seriously participate in the subjugation?”

“No! I’m good enough except for the trance type! Subjugation is always eliminated at the beginning. Subjugation is actually more fun to watch!”

From noble mtl dot com

“I see. Thank you for good information. I will speak well to him.”

Though he doesn’t even exist. Still, I was a little grateful to Kana for telling me wholeheartedly.

She was very luxurious when you think of that petty princess.

“Ah! Also, most of them are predicting Creighton as this year’s winner, so be aware of it. Attacking cadets during the subjugation system is strictly prohibited, but there is also a strategy to cleverly disrupt other cadets.”

“Crayton… Ira.”

“Don’t you know Creighton? Of course I thought you would know!”

“Yes? As a slave, how do I know the names of the students?”

“But… You’re close with that red-haired, ignorant first grader!”

“Lorraine… ? What does it have to do with him?”

“What does it matter? Is Creighton the fiancé of the redhead?”

“Ah… ?”

So Lorraine, did that b*tch do that to me when she had a fiancé?

Recently, I felt a sense of destruction to myself, who thought Lorraine was normal.

The princess and this TS girl aren’t easy, but Lorraine wasn’t normal either.

No, there is no normal in the academy in the first place.

“Well, thank you anyway. I will refer to it.”

“Yes! Be sure to tell him well!”

Leaving Kana behind her as she returned to her friends with an innocent smile, I trudged toward her quarters.

Most of the stories were not very worrying, but they also disturbed other participants.

As a former slave, I was highly likely to be disturbed.

And from what I’ve heard, it seems that there are cases where, in fact, they carelessly attack other cadets.

It will be an aspect of a melee taking place in an open field, so there seems to be no way to judge if the attack goes to another cadet by mistake.

Probably only in dangerous situations will the professor step in and get him eliminated for cheating.

“But… Well, that sounds like fun.”

Being able to directly verify and prove my learning.

That was exciting for some reason. It was a completely different excitement than when I was confined to the research lab in the past and reviewing dead knowledge.

That I have a stage to prove my studies and magic.

It seemed that the life of helpless slaves from the past would change drastically starting with this proof.

Numerous proofs that changed the history of mathematics.

My proof would greatly change the history of magic.
