Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Creak.

With a muffled sound of turning, the bronze gate of the Mystic Realm slowly opened. Under the expectant gazes of the students and teachers, the test began.

At the top of the audience stand, Aisha sat beside the school leaders and watched the test together as the second-grade teacher.

Her gaze wandered around the bronze door, watching the students step in, one after another. Her heart was filled with various emotions.

Then, she saw a familiar figure.

“Moss?”

Beside the bronze door, Moss and his friend were standing to receive the exploration medal from another teacher.

Aisha frowned slightly.

She realized that Moss’s team only had two people. The difficulty of this test was not easy for newbies who had just awakened their class. Would the two of them be okay?

Aisha did not doubt Moss’ ability. However, Moss had just awakened, and Wine Mage was not a strong combat class. She was worried that they would not be able to survive due to the small size of Moss’ party.

Then, she realized something strange. Moss’ equipment did not look like a Wine Mage’s but like the uniform of a city guard.

Aisha quickly thought about Moss’s family’s financial problems and realized that this equipment was the only equipment in Moss’s family. However, she still found it strange.

Wine Mage was a support class that could use alcohol to unleash special abilities. Hence, why would Moss bring a sword and shield instead of alcohol?

Before Aisha could think this through, Moss and his teammate had already entered the Mystic Realm.

Aisha could only shake her head and hide the strange feeling in her heart.

What exactly was Moss thinking? She would know after watching his actual battle. There was no need to think so much now. But for some reason, Aisha felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart that was difficult to dispel.

All the students had already stepped into the bronze gate in a short while.

The field became quiet. Unlike the silence on the field, the first-year students in the audience seats were all discussing excitedly.

The students sitting in the seats had already learned more or less about their seniors’ classes and abilities before the competition began. At this moment, most of them were talking about how these seniors would use their powers to the fullest.

“Hey, I heard that our school has a senior who has awakened as a Swordmaster this time. He should get first place in this test, right?”

“Yes, that senior’s name is Cullen. I also heard that he is the White Deer Magic Potion Group’s heir.”

“Wow, that’s a wealthy group. No wonder his family can afford to buy a Swordmaster’s Class Change Scroll. He is rich and powerful. Isn’t this too perfect?”

…

Just as the students were discussing, a screen unfolded in front of the audience.

On-screen were the second-year high school students who had entered the Mystic Realm. They have divided accordingly, and there was even the class information of the corresponding people on the staff column.

Seeing the specific team formation and battle attire, the students became even more excited.

“Hey, look, there’s a team of eighteen people over there. D*mn, can it be like this?”

“Is that a Swordmaster over there? Wow, a golden sword, so cool.”

“That Swordmaster is Senior Brother Cullen!”

“Wow, is that a Guardian? He looks solid!”

The students present were all excited as they compared the classes and teams of the figures on the screen.

While they were looking for an exciting team of characters, a strange team appeared in front of everyone. It was a team of only two people, the smallest in the whole grade.

“Eh? Why is there a team of two people only? Are they so confident in their strength?”

“Wow, what class are those two seniors in?”

“I think these two seniors must have awakened super-strong classes. Otherwise, why would they dare to go with two people only?”

“Quickly see what their classes are?”

The strange team lineup made the students present curious, and they looked at the two people’s classes and names together.

“Eh? Is it Senior Moss? I remember that he placed first in the second year of high school during the last exam.”

“Wow, he’s a top student. No wonder he dared to enter with only two people!”

Then, when people saw Moss’s class, someone immediately cried out in surprise.

“Knight? Senior Moss awakened as a Knight?”

“Not only that, his teammate is an Alchemist! Their team doesn’t have a strong attacking class!”

“What the hell? What are they doing? This is stupid. Did he think that this test is as easy as answering questions?”

“It’s over. They’re dead meat. I bet their team will be the first to be eliminated.” the first team to be eliminated.”

The crowd was discussing animatedly. None of them were optimistic about Moss and Alan’s team.

The noise was so loud that even the headmaster sitting at the top of the spectator stand noticed it.

“Moss? I remember that he placed first in his grade. Why did he choose to become a Knight?”

The headmaster returned to the spectator stand early. He also noticed the strange team formed by Moss and Alan.

“A team of two dared to enter the Mystic Realm? Which class are they from? How did their teacher educate them?”

The teachers looked at each other. Aisha’s dull expression attracted the headmaster.

“Miss Aisha, Moss should be a student of your class. Didn’t you let them understand the situation of the Mystic Realm during your classes?”

Aisha only came back to her senses when she heard the question. She was also shocked that Moss had awakened as a Knight.

Why? She had given him the Wine Mage’s scroll. Why would he choose to become a Knight? Did something happen to the scroll? Or was there another change in his family? Why didn’t he come and discuss it with her?

Aisha’s heart was filled with doubts at this moment. But no matter how many doubts she had, she could not say it out loud.

Facing the angry headmaster, Aisha said bitterly, “Sir, I don’t know what’s going on either, but Moss is a student with his own opinions. Perhaps he has his plans.”

Although she did not understand Moss’ choice, Aisha still tried her best to defend Moss in front of everyone.

The school director, who had been silent all this while, let out a cold snort.

“Hmph!”

All the teachers’ faces turned solemn, and they all turned to look at the school director’s seat.
