21 – Group Practice Performance Evaluation

It was decided to leave the work entirely to Delia.

It is impossible to betray even if you want to because you are bound by a contract.

If a problem arose, it was possible to shift all responsibility to Delia at any time.

‘I don’t think anything big will happen to me if I get caught.’

Still, it would be better than creating a variable by attracting unnecessary attention.

I naturally let everything go to Delia and then added additional words.

“We will provide you with enough money, so don’t worry and proceed.”

“Huh, huh?”

“And the free funeral project will be conducted by the Herdy family, not the Lercier family.”

“…… “

Delia looks at me with an embarrassed expression, as if she didn’t know that I was going to hand over everything to her.

Looking at her like that, I realized that if I let her go like this, she will no longer come forward and make her suggestions.

She threw her carrots that she thought she would like.

“If the matter goes smoothly, I will help you modify the magic, so work as hard as you can.”

Anyway, magic modification is not something that can be done with just one or two, so let’s offer these rewards.

Delia quickly nodded her head and said she would.

‘Well, I guess the miscellaneous work is over for now.’

Now, it would be better to move on to the next step.’

‘Then all that’s left is to sell Ariel’s story to the Welcome Library.’

Part of me wanted to take Ariel right away and sell her story, but since Ariel was still alive, I couldn’t do it easily.

‘I feel like I want to kill him right away and take him away.’

In order to take out the Heavenly God Church, it is necessary to keep Ariel, her new teacher, and the male student alive for as long as possible.

I decided to put it off for a while for now.

I was smiling, thinking that Ariel’s lifespan was longer than I thought, when Delia spoke to her.

“Who will you do the group practice performance evaluation with?”

Oh, there was something like that.

There were so many things going on that I forgot about it for a while.

I thought about those words for a moment, then slowly turned my gaze to look at Delia and Rumi.

‘I guess I can take these two with me.’

Since both of our test scores were within the top three, I was thinking that no matter how low we were, we would still be able to do one serving.

Notices about the relevant training evaluation came through the grimoire.

There are various words written here, but there are three things to pay attention to here.

From noble mtl dot com

Groups are formed randomly.

A total of 3 people will form a group.

Lastly, the location of the test was said to be held in the Forest of Time near the Academy.

I couldn’t hide my surprise at this notice.

Obviously, in the novel, it was done in the form of forming groups directly, but if you look at the notice, it said that they would be organized randomly.

When I saw this, I could sense that something was wrong and that someone had intervened in the evaluation test.

‘There’s no need to worry, it’s probably the Heavenly God Church.’

Otherwise, there would be no reason to change it.

If I wanted, I could go directly to the principal’s office and restore it to its original state.

‘If you use it in reverse, I think it could bring about more benefits.’

They were pretending that things were going as they wanted, but then they decided to stab them in the back.

The funeral proceeded faster than expected.

I don’t know if it’s because Delia’s abilities are outstanding, or because the family behind Delia is powerful.

Within even a week, the plan was completed and the bodies continued to pile up.

“Assuming 3 coins per corpse, I think it would be about 300 coins per day.”

It’s not a very high number, but it’s not bad if you think about it as a number that can be obtained over and over again.

I nodded and told him that he did a good job.

Delia looks very proud and continues talking to me.

“I’m good at this kind of thing.”

At least she seemed to have good business acumen, so she nodded, deciding to delegate it if something similar happened in the future.

‘I have accumulated about 3000 coins so far, so in a few weeks it will be time to read the ancient magic book.’

She looked at Rumi, thinking that after reading the ancient magic book, she might as well focus on something else for a while.

‘Anyway, is it okay?’

Strangely enough, I feel like my complexion is worse now than when I first met him.

I wish it was just a misunderstanding on my part.

The expression itself looked quite serious, making me worry.

‘The escort said there were light assaults but no serious assaults.’

I narrowed my eyes, wondering why I was having such a hard time.

‘I can’t just go up to you and ask you to tell me what you’re thinking.’

She looked away, deciding to wait until Rumi spoke directly.

* * *

Two weeks have passed since then.

The original expected profit for two weeks was about 4,200 coins, which was far short of the target of 10,000 coins.

She told Delia that the moment she collected 10,000 coins, she would give her magic modifications right away, so she was able to reach her goal about twice as fast.

I look at Delia who is very excited and feel that she is amazing in many ways.

First, I decided to check the ancient magic book.

“Wow… Customer, you have already collected 10,000 coins. “You are amazing.”

Amber’s eyes sparkled as she held a book the size of her body.

He immediately leads me to an ancient magic book and talks to me.

“As I said last time, you can only rent for 1 hour with 10,000 coins. Would that be okay?”

As I nodded, Amber tried to dissuade me once again, as if we had built up some affection over the years.

“That… Although that’s not what I’m talking about. It is a book that even the most powerful wizards should hold onto for at least a few years to several decades. “I don’t think renting for just one hour is a good choice.”

“It’s okay.”

“… Is that so? If you say that, I can’t stop you anymore… Still, I’ll give you time to think about it again, so think about it.”

Hearing those words, I shook my head and made a gesture to ask for something quickly.

Amber talks to me while muttering things like ‘You’ll regret it.’

“I received 10,000 coins. “Time begins to pass from the moment you open the book, so please open it as soon as you are ready.”

I nodded, thinking it was strangely reminiscent of speed running, and quickly opened the ancient magic book.

“Yes? You already read it all? “That lot?”

I succeeded in reading the magic book in less than 30 minutes, let alone an hour.

Ember exclaimed as she looked at the ancient magic book in turn, as if she was shocked.

“No, regardless of many things, it would be difficult to understand one sentence at a time. How on earth did you read that?”

There was no other way to answer such a question.

This talent, which is abnormal in my opinion, only allowed me to understand and master everything.

‘If I were to use an analogy, I would say it felt like I was being asked how I breathe. ‘It’s easy to learn, but difficult to explain.’

Even I don’t know why I’m learning it so quickly and I can’t say anything else.

Amber speaks to me with a somewhat suspicious expression.

“Aren’t you just asking for a refund because you don’t understand?”

No matter what I say, you can clearly see the suspicion, so let’s just ignore it.

Amber rolled her eyes and muttered to me, ‘No matter how you look at it, it seems like a lie.’

“Then I will return the 5,000 coins right away. “If you lied to me, let’s say you gave it back out of pity, but if you really acquired it all, please remember that I’m giving it to you to show you well.”

Nodding my head, I looked at what I had learned earlier in the ancient magic book.

[Magic Mastery evolves into Ancient Magic Mastery!]

– Ancient magic mastery acquired by learning ancient magic. As the level of the skill increases, more effects are obtained.

It appears that he has definitely succeeded in learning it.

Looking at the unclear information in the explanation section, I felt the need to take the time to reinterpret what I had learned.

‘Then it would be a good idea to spend some time preparing for this.’

I’m already excited to lock myself in the lab and check out the ancient magic I’ve put into my head.

‘Besides, the Heavenly God Church guys will do something in the group practice performance evaluation that will be held soon.’

I massaged my shoulders, thinking that since I had a clear test subject, I could be active in many ways.

The exact center of the collapsed temple where countless white giant pillars are placed.

There, a man dressed in an overly flashy priest’s uniform smiled and spoke to the people around him.

“The day of judgment is coming soon. All believers must punish the heretic Lersie Dern. As the Heavenly God commanded, let us do our best to help Rumi fall into an even deeper abyss of despair.”

Hearing such a voice, the believers around him responded to his words by cheering as if they were crazy.

It was closer to a cult than a normal religion.

No one doubted this, or rather, they were enthusiastically accepting all of this.

They talked for a long time as if a festival was held.

As if there was a blackout, the laughter and cheers stopped for a moment and all eyes were focused on the exact center.

The man in the center of the gaze smiled brightly at the men standing nearby and continued his speech.

“Well then, please take care of me. “Inquisitors, heresy.”

After those brief words, the men nodded politely and left the room.
