Episode 407
Aita Kindergarten’s written test is divided into high/medium/low levels and is conducted in three difficulty levels.
Usually, the lower level test tested the knowledge practically necessary for hunters, such as the characteristics of dungeons and monsters.
Although it was classified as low grade, even if you solve only 5 out of 20 problems, it is a considerable level for the age of the lower grades.
Even in the intermediate level, the level of difficulty increased significantly, requiring young students even to the area of description.
So from the intermediate level, it was the realm of the best talents in each country. Until now, Eita had never had a perfect score on the intermediate written exam.
‘…But, the newly enrolled lower graders are going to take the advanced exams?’
[42nd Written Test]
[Velvet: Application Difficulty – High]
Eita’s instructor Kim Pil-jeok looked down at Velvet, who was wagging his tail. All the other students were nervously accepting their exam papers with nervous faces, but what made them feel so happy was that even their bodies were swaying from side to side in a rhythm.
“velvet. ask just in case Did you really apply for the advanced written exam?”
“Velvet wants to solve the hardest problem!”
Instructor Kim Pil-jeok sighed. Fortunately, Velvet seemed to know at least that the upper level was difficult and the lower level was easy.
“…For reference, you cannot retake the written test once you have taken it. This means that once you accept the test paper, there is no turning back. Do you know what that means?”
“It means you have to work hard!”
“That’s true… Eita’s written exam is very difficult. There are even problems that even high school academy students cannot solve. Compared to the studies you’ve done so far… Very! very! It must be difficult. If you get even 0 points… a very big disadvantage… uh hmm…”
Yes. I should have understood this, but if I applied for the advanced exam and got a score of 0, it was difficult for me too. If a student who ranked in the practical test was given supplementary classes, the other instructors would not be ashamed.
So Instructor Kim Pil-jeok calmly wanted Velvet to apply for the lower level exam and reach the pass mark.
“Do you understand what I mean now?”
Instructor Kim Pil-jeok pointed to the word ‘lower level’ written on the application form and forced a smile. That meant lowering the level of difficulty as soon as he dried it.
“Kyahang… I think I understand…”
Possibly because of Instructor Piljeok Kim’s anxious heart, Velvet nodded with a serious face.
‘It’s fortunate… It seems that Velvet recognized it.’
Instructor Kim Pil-jeok believed he had done the right thing. Together with Yuhan of the Yoo family, Velvet, the best prospect of Eita, prevented the unfortunate incident of failing the written exam.
But Velvet betrayed that trust in a spectacular way.
“Just working hard doesn’t mean you have to pay very well!”
In the end, instructor Kim Pil-jeok banged his forehead at the story of returning to his place! It hit loudly.
“No no… no, don’t you think of lowering the difficulty level?”
“But Velvet likes difficult things! Because Velvet is a genius!”
“Then how about the middle class? Getting a perfect score on the intermediate exam is a big deal, isn’t it? If you apply now, I’ll even give you candy!”
Instructor Kim Pil-jeok shook the candy bag with a sense of desperation, ‘Please let’s go with this!’ It was a gift given to younger students like Velvet when they listened well.
“Hut candy!”
Was this the correct answer? Velvet seriously frowned and pondered over the subject of a child.
Instructor Kim Pil-jeok forced a good-natured smile. I shook the bag containing the fruit candy again. 1 minute left until the start of the test. I just wanted to end this tug-of-war.
“Instructor Kim Pil-jeok? Is this class ready for the written exam yet? I should have given you enough time, but why…”
However, perhaps because it took too long, Instructor Kim Pil-jeok’s consideration made the principal of Aita, who was patrolling, appear.
“School Principal!”
She looks like an elderly woman in her old age and is easy to fool with her gentle smile, but the principal was a 6th-level hunter.
“That’s it…”
In the end, Piljeok Kim whispered to the principal to explain the current situation.
Whispering –
I wonder what the hell they were talking about. When Kim Pil-jeok finished talking, the principal’s eyes widened.
“It is understandable that you are late in preparing for the exam. Our Velvet, who will brighten Aita’s future… Such a problem shouldn’t happen.”
The principal was also in a difficult position if Velvet failed the written exam.
“Velvet… yes. I will give you this candy, so please take the intermediate test… The advanced written test is too difficult for the lower grades.”
Seeing how his head is fixed every time he shakes the fruit candy, he deserves to be eaten, but the velvet is sum-! and got up from his seat.
Then, putting her hand on her waist, she shouted so resolutely:
“Determine! Velvet is going to take the advanced written exam-! I will show everyone that Velvet is a genius!”
Velvet’s unconventional remarks embarrassed not only the instructors but also the principal.
“Don’t do that…”
“Failing alone is a scary thing. Velvet please Intermediate…”
However, the situation was already spilled water. Velvet’s remarks made the students agitate and spread like waves as if a stone was thrown into the water.
“A lower grader taking an advanced exam?”
“I’ve never taken an advanced finite exam before!”
“Wow, that’s amazing…”
“As expected, it’s velvet!”
“amazing! velvet! cool!”
Instructor Kim Pil-jeok and Eita’s principal, Harmonia, looked at each other with a confused expression.
“Principal, if this happens…”
“…I guess I can only hope that Velvet solves at least one problem.”
* * *
When Velvet sat down, he handed out really advanced exam papers. Some idle teachers came to see the news that the lower grades had solved the most difficult test ever, which was difficult to solve even in the high school academy.
“Isn’t this the first time? Did the lower grade apply for the advanced written exam?”
“Most students know how difficult this test is just by solving the preparation questions.”
“Come to think of it, Velvet entered after the preparatory exam…”
“It’s a big deal. I’d be glad if I didn’t fail.”
“Iknow, right. It’s the instructor’s fault for not stopping it. Do you have an idea or not?”
Aita’s teachers were talking about things that would be unfair to Instructor Kim Pil-jeok.
Now, all the results are in a tense situation with Velvet’s head and hands!
‘Kyahang! This is an advanced written test!’
Velvet looked at the questions of the written test with serious eyes.
[1.]
Figure (a) is a picture of an explosion that occurred at a distance of 3m from the caster in a place where there is no magic friction. When the location of the mana caster is classified as P point and the explosion location as Q point, the amount of mana created between P and Q is 3.6M and the power is 4.2Mana/B.
If so, how much would the force increase if the distance between Q and P were halved?
Eita was a gathering place for children from kindergarten age to elementary school age at most. However, this question was so difficult that Sumire, who was good at written tests, could solve it, but Amy couldn’t solve it.
In particular, it is impossible to get the correct answer in such a short amount of time without repeated learning.
‘Kyaa kyahang. difficult! I’ve learned this before, but…’
In the end, the troubled Velvet came up with a trick. That is, try to create an explosion directly with the same mana and the same distance as the test question.
‘At times like this, there’s no way I can try it myself!’
Velvet reached out to the window.
And then, using the same amount of mana, he fired a mana bullet at the distance specified in the problem.
Pong-!
“What are you talking about?”
“Instructor! I think I heard a noise from the window!”
“What do you hear? Let everyone focus on the test!”
The force of the explosion was so insignificant that the instructor, who was far away, couldn’t even hear it.
‘…Kyahang got it!’
But Velvet had enough of that.
It was as easy as breathing to measure the power of mana to the dragon, who is said to be the master of mana.
[2.]
Among the mana stones, describe the shape of the shape that can preserve the most mana for the longest time and the one that can contain the most mana.
If it wasn’t for Velvet to solve this problem, the difficulty of problem 2 would have exceeded imagination. It was impossible to get the correct answer unless you had a current hunter who had personally used mana stones or acquired knowledge related to mana stones.
‘Mana stone!’
However, Velvet was the only student in Eita Kindergarten who had ever made a mana stone. Even taking advantage of the dragon’s characteristic of liking goods, he was a student who accumulated enormous wealth by stacking the money in his bank account.
‘This problem is simple! This is what the shop owner told me about!’
[The best mana stones are round, which can store mana the longest, and oval, which can hold the most mana. So if you want to get a lot of money, a stone like this…]
Velvet started solving the advanced written test questions in an instant.
‘Looking at the next page, is it already question number 6? But that speed… did you give up, Velvet?’
At that speed, Piljeok Kim thought that Velvet had given up on the test, but Velvet’s eyes were shining brightly.
‘Have fun! It’s much more difficult than the original problem!’
Velvet was a dragon who read at least one book a day. Even among the brilliant Red clan, he inherited the lineage of Sardonyx, one of the best brains of all time.
Once read, once heard, never forgotten. That terrifying talent wasn’t just a smart kid.
7 times. 8 times. 10 times half.
Velvet’s solving speed was rather fast. When only 20 minutes of the 40 minutes had passed, Velvet got up from her seat with a test paper and said something unbelievable.
“Unlock everything!”
* * *
Principal Harmonia, who checked Velvet’s test papers, took off her glasses. Then he carefully wiped his glasses and checked the test paper again.
“Is this… is it really true?”
However, the results of the test paper did not change.
“Principal… We checked again and again.”
Instructor Kim Pil-jeok, who saw Velvet solve the problem himself, as well as the female teacher, who called Velvet separately and asked how to solve it, nodded with a serious face.
“Velvet… is the first person to get a perfect score in the advanced exam.”
Velvet, who claimed to be a genius, was right. Velvet was the smartest student in the history of Aita Kindergarten.
