Legendary Hero is an Academy Honors Student – 182

Everyone murmured and looked at Leo and Reese in turns.
Reese who was sitting in the stands for the 5th graders narrowed his eyes at Leo.
‘indeed.’
Reese knew right away why Leo had singled him out.
‘You’re saying you’re going to prove it with your skills.’
Not a bad idea.
After announcing Leo as a candidate for student council president there was surprisingly little backlash.
But even so it is not a situation that can be easily overcome.
The situation was literally the calm before the storm.
We are not talking about this incident due to a complex combination of various circumstances but it is impossible to know when complaints will erupt.
Besides ‘Can a first-year student really become the student council president?’ I also had this thought.
It is the student council president’s authority to select candidates for the next student council president.
However the principal gives final approval.
The opinions of the student council president are respected but candidates who are too outrageous are not approved.
Reese clenched his chin.
‘As for Leo the principal also gave permission.’
When Reese recommended Leo as the next student council president the principal readily agreed.
‘Many people are recognizing Leo’s value.’
If this continues it is a given that Leo will become the student council president.
but….
‘Students won’t be convinced.’
Therefore Leo had to prove it in some way.
That he was someone worthy of becoming the student council president.
Reese thought Leo would do that after becoming student council president.
But surprisingly before Leo became student council president.

He was trying to prove himself in front of all the students.
In a sense it can be bold but on the other hand it can also be too reckless.
If things continue like this Reese will never look after Leo.
‘The moment you look at it you can’t be recognized by anyone.’
Reese curled up the corner of his mouth as he looked at his cousin who chose to attack him head on rather than turning around.
[Hey… Reese. What are you going to do?]
Cheyla who was hosting the meeting asked breathlessly.
Reese laughed at Cheyla’s question.
“I’ve been challenged like this so it wouldn’t be polite to avoid it.”
An unprecedented sparring evaluation between the 1st grade representative and the 5th grade representative was completed.
***
Afterwards nominations began among first-year students.
In the case of other students many cases were discussed in advance so it went smoothly.
After all the opponents to fight have been decided.
Illyana stuck out her tongue when she saw that she was stuck with the student council president.
“and. Crazy guy. “He’s really crazy.”
In this sparring evaluation Leo was the only one who pointed to a higher grade.
Nella said while looking at Illyana who was talking with a tired look on her face.
“Are you going to be okay?”
Leo smiled as he looked at Nella asking worriedly.
“I’ll have to hit it.”
The students in the class clicked their tongues as they looked at Leo who seemed calm despite having a huge accident.
Chelsea came next to Leo clenched her fists and her eyes sparkled.
“Fighting Leo.”
Chelsea was actively supporting Leo becoming student council president.
Tade said while looking at that scene.
“No matter what it’s impossible to be the first-year student council president.”
“Aang? Are you saying that Leo can’t be the student council president now? what?”
“Oh no. I’m telling a realistic story… Stop that! “What kind of thug are you?!”
Chelsea kicked Tade with a mean look on her face and Tade quickly ran away.
Meanwhile two students appeared on the sparring field created in the middle of the parade ground.
The first graders who saw that looked nervous.
“It’s because Leo is stuck with a very unconventional partner….”
“This matchup looks like it will be tough.”
The ones who went up to the parade ground were two female students with black hair.
One was Celia a girl with black hair and bright red eyes.
And the other one is Chen Xia who has black hair and black eyes.

It was a sparring between two students competing for first place in the knight department.
If you look at the compatibility of attributes alone Chen Xia had the advantage.
However this match was not one where the winner would be decided simply based on the hierarchical relationship between attributes.
With everyone paying attention to sparring Cheyla came out to the society and said.
[ruler! This is a sparring match between first graders that attracts attention from the beginning! Celia Gerdinger and Chen Xia face off! Hey! As a 5th year engineer major I was curious about my juniors’ games!]
Cheyla stood between the two with a cheerful voice and her eyes sparkled.
But no more was said about it.
In fact he looked like he wanted to talk more but he couldn’t because he had been pointed out by Halind earlier.
[ruler! then! The first match of the mid-high school sparring evaluation for first graders! Starting now!]
With those words Cheira came down from the sparring hall.
As they stood facing each other Celia drew her sword and spoke.
“Is this your first time having a proper match like this?”
“I see.”
Chen Xia smiled and took a stance.
The two had practiced sparring many times but had never competed in real life.
Officially in front of everyone like this.
This was also the first time I had to spar to defeat him with all my skills.
“I’m looking forward to it.”
“I’m excited too.”
Chen Xia grinned.
“Miss Celia you also do personal training with Master Leo right? “I’d like to see the results.”
At those words Celia lowered her posture and activated her aura.
“Shouldn’t you be so relaxed?”
Grumble-!
An aura burned in Celia’s body.
“If you make a mistake you will be punished in an instant!”
Celia with her sword wrapped in flame aura rushed at Chen Xia at incredible speed.
Chen Xia seeing this spread her palms and created a water aura.
Sigh!
Chen Xia who had a thin veil of water covering her entire body like silk spun her body around.
‘Miss Celia doesn’t stop.’
Celia’s swordsmanship is very aggressive.
Since he uses Rare Fear he seems to use elegant swordsmanship but contrary to his image he used extremely vicious swordsmanship.
‘Until the beginning of the first semester my swordsmanship was quite gentle.’
Someone had changed Celia’s swordsmanship tendencies.
‘That doesn’t mean Miss Celia’s swordsmanship isn’t delicate or rough.’
They use their overwhelming firepower to create gaps and persistently squeeze through those gaps.
Even if you try to find an opening to block an attack it is not easy to find it.
It was proof that she didn’t just push through force.
Therefore Chen Xia knew very well that blocking Celia’s attack from the front was a foolish act.
Water is definitely an attribute specialized for defense but even more than that is evasion.
Kwakagak-!
Chen Xia let go of Celia’s stabbing attack with fluid movements like water.
Celia lost her balance and stumbled for a moment.
But Chen Xia did not take advantage of that gap.
Woe!
Celia corrected her posture and immediately spread flame aura everywhere.
Aura release.
Cheeeeeek-!
The flames spreading in all directions evaporated Chen Xia’s water aura.
A flame that seems to turn everything into ashes.
But Chen Xia did not back down and clenched her fist.
And then he burrowed into the arms of Celia who was emitting flames.
‘Aren’t you going to back down?’
Celia was taken aback by the other person’s unexpected behavior.
The match against Chen Xia was expected to be a long battle.
However as if out of control Chen Xia rushed in to end the match in an instant.
Sigh-!
Chen Xia’s fist was lodged in Celia’s chest.
I deployed my Auror armor for a moment but it was too late.
“Tsk!”
Celia quickly widened the distance.
In a fight with Chen Xia whose strength is martial arts such close combat is at a disadvantage.
Celia steps back to create an angle to swing her sword.
But Chen Xia did not chase Celia.
‘what? ‘I thought you would attack more because you had the advantage?’
Celia looked at Chen Xia with a slightly embarrassed expression.
Looking at Celia like that Chen Xia smiled.
My uniform got burned here and there and my hands got pretty bad burns.
I don’t know if it’s someone with a weapon.
It was clear that those burns would have been a big blow to Chen Xia whose skill was martial arts.
Tap-tap-tap-
But Chen Xia didn’t care.
I just stretched out my hands and closed the distance between me and Celia.
Celia saw that and wiped her mouth.
‘It’s different from Chen Xia until now.’
The atmosphere has changed.
Chen Xia who had always been gentle and gentle now felt like a very sharply honed sword.
The usual soft smile feels like a cool blade.
‘This is Chen Xia in real life.’
Celia broke into a cold sweat and tightened her grip on her sword.
‘It’s different from me. No he’s different from other engineer students.’
The one who benefited from the battle a little while ago was Chen Xia.
If we exchange attacks step by step weighing the pros and cons like this it is Celia who falls.
But if that happens Chen Xia also has no ‘back’.
‘It doesn’t matter if it’s a sparring evaluation. But what if this is a battlefield?’
This type of attack will lead to destruction not only for the opponent but also for oneself.
The place where heroes are active is the battlefield.
It is a place where numerous variables occur.
Therefore Chen Xia’s attack method was far from ‘heroic’.
Even Rumeren’s knight department has never taught that type of fighting method.
‘What the hell is this?’
Celia couldn’t hide her embarrassment as she saw Chen Xia’s appearance that she didn’t know about.
***
Leo who was sitting in the first-year stands narrowed his eyes.
‘indeed.’
Leo rested his chin and muttered to himself.
‘He’s an assassin.’
I felt it the other day when Chen Xia challenged me during the department competition but she was different from the average knight.
I thought it was specialized for one-on-one situations.
However his specialization in one-on-one fighting was also different from that of ordinary knights.
But after seeing this match with Celia I felt confident.
Chen Xia’s movements resembled those of an assassin.
‘Of course he seems far from a typical assassin.’
With Chen Xia’s skills there is no reason to look for an opening.
It’s just that the fighting style is similar to Assassin.
‘Ideal as an assassin or bodyguard. But it’s not the attitude a hero pursues.’
Besides Leo the 4th and 5th graders looked surprised as they saw through Chen Xia’s tendencies.
Professor Ain who was watching from afar narrowed his eyes.
Yura who was next to me asked.
“You look uncomfortable. “Senior Ain.”
“It’s bound to be uncomfortable. “It is a huge loss to try to use a talent of that level as a chess piece for ‘individuals.’”
“But what can I do? “Is Chen Xia’s identity like that?”
“Even if only half of the emperor’s daughter is the emperor’s daughter. “And yet they are treated like that.”
“Shan is a strict country when it comes to lineage. Besides the other half is the ‘Shadow Clan’ so there’s nothing we can do about it.”
Yura also licked his appetite as if he was disappointed.
Shan Empire.
It is a powerful country located at the eastern end of the continent.
Although it does not command the entire western continent like Rodren it is still a hegemony that occupies half of the eastern continent.
And Chen Xia was the emperor’s daughter in terms of ‘lineage’ alone.
Of course only professors know this.
Chen Xia never specifically mentioned her identity.
‘I don’t like it.’
Ain narrowed his eyes.
***
puck-!
‘If you continue like this you will lose!’
Celia gritted her teeth.
Chen Xia’s attack which accurately calculated the damage to be inflicted and the damage to be suffered was thrilling.
Celia was even more embarrassed because she had never experienced anything like this.
But Celia remained calm.
‘Sia’s attack is so dangerous that you never know when you might lose your balance.’
Chen Xia’s attack which was making small gains while maintaining a tight line was clearly an attack that could cause great upset if it went awry.
But even in that dangerous situation Chen Xia kept her balance well.
‘You have to make mistakes.’
Thinking like that Celia tightened her grip on her sword.
Chen Xia saw that and smiled bitterly.
‘You’ve made up your mind. As expected Miss Celia.’
Chen Xia’s attack is like a swamp.
Once you get into it you can’t get out.
Celia acknowledged that fact and took a gamble.
‘He’s quick to judge.’
For Chen Xia all of the knight department students found it easy to cook.
For Chen Xia who had learned how to ‘destroy’ people his classmates in the Knights’ Department who had been brought up properly were easy people to cook with.
‘Of course it wasn’t Master Leo.’
It was not a simple difference in technology.
It was as if the number of battles I had experienced was different.
“Miss Celia… looks like a firework.”
“what?”
“It shines so brightly.”
Chen Xia smiled and raised her aura.
‘If Miss Celia has decided and decided to take the lead I can’t deal with it half-heartedly.’
Unlike other students Celia’s attack power is at a different level.
‘If you react half-heartedly you’ll be hit in an instant.’
If it weren’t for sparring the battle would have been more advantageous.
You can use all kinds of means.
It may be said to be cowardly but Chen Xia has been taught that victory is worth more than such cowardice.
‘But this is sparring.’
And at this moment I didn’t want to win like that.
This is because seeing Celia’s flame reminded me of someone.
Sigh!
A torrent of water swirled around Chen Xia.
The torrent soon began to take the shape of a dragon.
“Prominence.”
Grumble-!
Red flames were overflowing.
“Water dragon.”
The giant water dragon opened its mouth and roared.
Woe! Quaaaang! Cheeeeeeeek-!
The prominence and the water dragon collided spewing out huge steam.
The steam cleared and Celia and Chen Xia barely stood at the end of the sparring hall.
“I had a huge advantage.”
Chen Xia smiled bitterly as she tore off her burnt school uniform.
“It became the same all at once.”
“Kuh-!”
Celia made an angry expression.
Both of them ran out of stamina.
Cheyla came up to the sparring hall looking at the two people staggering around.
[Stop! Professors tell me to stop! If you do any more you will get seriously hurt!]
Cheyla who was sandwiched between the two was impressed.
[Are you both amazing? It’s not like first grade. Excellent! The sparring result is a draw! Both of them showed great performances!]
Cheira who was clapping grinned.
[Both go to the medical tent and receive treatment.]
“yes.”
Chen Xia smiled and headed to the duty tent without hesitation.
Meanwhile Celia gritted her teeth.
‘I don’t think it’s a draw.’
His biggest attack did not work on Chen Xia.
Celia also headed to the medical tent with her throbbing body.
“What would have happened if the two of you had continued to fight?”
“Chen Xia won.”
Leo said calmly in response to Chelsea’s question.
Chelsea was surprised by those words.
“Aren’t the two similar?”
“It was similar. But Chen Xia had a subtle advantage. And Chen Xia would never lose that advantage.”
“I see.”
“but.”
“but?”
“I can’t guarantee that Chen Xia will win the next time we fight.”
‘Because they’re almost equal in skill. What makes the difference is experience. You can’t beat Celia the same way.’
The next match began with the students cheering for Celia and Chen Xia.
Afterwards there were several big matches like Celia and Chen Xia.
The sparring between top performers attracted tremendous interest and excitement.
Meanwhile.
All the students sparred and only one winner remained.
Leo who came to the sparring area rotated his wrists and warmed up his body.
Tap-tap-tap-
Along with that footsteps were heard.
Everyone held their breath.
Leo smiled and looked at the man in front of him.
The strongest current Lumerun student.
Reece Gerdinger.
“Please take care of me Leo.”
“Thank you Brother Reese.”
The two greeted each other with similar smiles.
