Chapter 143: Favoritism Hurts A Bit
Underwater breathing was unbeatable.
And underwater fellatio was divine.
But unfortunately, due to a lack of time, I couldnt make it to the main part and had to get dressed.
Thus, with my hair still damp, I unnecessarily crossed the vast academy grounds.
There had been various incidents lately, but with the exams approaching, the atmosphere seemed a bit calmer.
After all, if the social activities and screenings had already ended, those not scared enough to drop out should focus on their school life.
The academys exams werent midterms or finals, but a semester evaluation that occurred once per semester.
However, one couldnt ignore this since next years class assignments were based on these evaluations.
Achieving high scores could even result in changing classes in the second semester.
Being in a lower class wasnt a disadvantage, but being assigned to a higher class improved the quality of life significantly.
For instance, having a personal training room in Dorm A or getting to go to the dungeon practice one more time.
After graduation, job placements also heavily consider which class you graduated from.
For commoners or achievers aspiring for social climbing, every exam becomes a matter of desperation.
While watching students bury their heads in books or arrange sparring sessions after class, Carla, seemingly pleased that I had caught on to the essence of resonance, gently tugged at my pinky finger.
Master, Master. You said youd meet Priestess Helena before going to class, right?
Yeah. I planned to take a quick bath and catch some sleep for an hour or two but I ended up not doing either. Ill ask for some fatigue recovery and brag about clearing another dungeon.
Brag?
Even though our firepower is strong, if we meet stronger enemies, the balance of the party becomes crucial. In that sense, Priestess Helena has the perfect role.
A tank that deals and heals? This is what you call a perfect combination.
So, Helena must have a penalty as a warrior of light.
As I was thinking about various combinations, Carla and Elisha began whispering to me with serious expressions.
Master. Dont tell me Priestess Helena is also destined to fall?
Maybe the entire Church of Righteous Radiance will collapse, Carla.
That makes it sound like I only recruit those who have fallen.
A bitter voice escaped me, but what returned was an even more intense surprise.
What? Wasnt that the case? Fayes family situation sounded almost like she was dependent on you.
When I asked her to come under me, she refused so much, but when I became a slave, she immediately rushed to buy me. So, I thought this time would be similar
Karma?
No. This was all because of the Boiling Silence.
It was because the followers of the Boiling Silence Church tried to bring down anyone with potential.
Anyway, it was all of those cultists fault!
Well, its true that the Church of Righteous Radiance is falling apart if left alone.
See!
I knew it!
Despite sharing shocking news, instead of being surprised, they high-fived each other with triumph.
What did they see me as?
Shaking my head, Carla and Elishas expressions hardened as they belatedly realized the gravity of the situation.
Uh If the Church of Righteous Radiance collapses, doesnt that almost halve the power of the United Divine Orders?
Given the nature of priests, as long as they can prove their divine power, they can clear most accusations. If it still falls corruption of the entire order? Or the absence of their god Either way, its a serious issue.
They looked up at me with worried expressions.
I patted their backs and smirked.
Dont worry. You think Id bring this up for no reason? Theres a way, so dont fret.
Since there was no need to keep it hidden any longer, I roughly laid out the plan.
Of course, either way, for the battle-crazed Church of Righteous Radiance, it was a manageable level.
That must be why they were calling us to such a dangerous dungeon.
Should I think of it as a form of self-promotion or evangelism?
If you believe in the Righteous Radiance, you can fight this well! So, how about attending a service with us today?
Something like that.
Even if not, raid dungeons had fewer variables, and you could run away if necessary.
Leaving the clear rate aside, it might also be because these dungeons had the highest survival probability.
Looking at the medallion in my hand, I smiled broadly and put it into my inventory.
Sure! But would it be okay to bring a few more people with me?
Huh? It becomes difficult to protect everyone if there are too many people
Theyll follow orders well, so dont worry about that part. Plus, everyone will pull their weight.
If thats the case Okay, Ill let the order know.
Thank you, Priestess Helena.
No matter how far the dungeon was, it wouldnt take all the vacation to get there and back.
On the way back, we could also take care of the cultists branch by the sea, and have some fun there.
With a perfect vacation plan in mind, I smiled and wished Helena well on her exams before heading to the Magic Studies classroom.
Rolling.
Iona has entered!
Today, as always, Iona rolled three times and struck a victory pose.
In that stance, she waved one arm and began to announce todays lesson schedule.
Hello, hello! Did everyone have a good weekend? The professors have been wondering what kind of exams to give for the semester evaluation!
Groans could be heard from all around.
It seemed like the sighing at the mention of exams was universal, here or on Earth.
But Ive already decided what well do for the magic combat class, so Ill let you know in advance! Drumroll
Iona stomped her feet and made drum noises with her mouth before spinning in place and striking a strange pose to continue.
Ta-da! The semester evaluation for the 1st-semester 1st-year magic combat class will be a league-style duel!
A league match, huh?
For the larger classes, like B or C, they used a tournament style where only the winners advanced, and scores were assigned based on ranking.
There was a losers revival, but luck in matchups was important too.
However, the smaller class A had a league format where everyone got to duel at least once.
I was confident I could win against anyone, so I didnt need to worry about
Ah, but Yandel is an exception!
Iona made a beep-beep sound and crossed her arms above her head to form an X.
Why is that?!
Well, after seeing the duel last time, the others dont stand a chance against you, right? Theres no need for a duel if the outcome is obvious.
Huh.
It made sense, so I was about to nod in agreement when suddenly
So, Yandels exam will be a duel with me! For the same reason, youll duel with me in future classes, too!
What?
A practical combat duel with Iona?
As bewildered as I was, Iona just grinned, showing off her sharp fangs.
How about that? A one-on-one date with none other than Professor Iona! Nice, right? Yeah, of course, its nice! No need for thanks!
Ionas usually lively voice somehow sounded annoying today.
A duel It was going to hurt a lot, wasnt it?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
