One of the reasons I don't open this thing is because of how weird it looks.
'My status window is naturally different from most others for some reason and no one other than me could see it either. Find your adventure at m-v|l -NovelBin.net
Not even Eon could see it even if I wanted him to.
It's weird, and even though people could see it unlike his status, they don't see it like I do.
It doesn't look weird to them and many of the things that are written weirdly also don't appear before them.
'And, after I received that damned title, things have become even more weird.'
I can't even read the race that's written in there even though I know what it means perfectly well.
'His eyes are one thing, but even my eyes are weird.
They don't show me many things and they act weird as if they don't want to show some of the things on purpose.
But, according to the people I have asked them about, they aren't doing it because they want to or anything.
Even if they might possess a unique personality, they aren't a conscious or completely aware entity.
Just like an artificial intelligence, they have a set of characteristics that make up their personality… Perhaps they might develop into something like an ego in the future but we don't know what will happen to them.
'Apparently, these eyes of mine that are represented as 'eyes of truth' in my status belonged to a certain being that was one of the initial existences of this world.'
They were the first possessors of that skill and after them, there have been countless barriers of these eyes throughout the known and unknown history.
'Even someone as knowledgeable as Eon did not know about them. So it just shows how big a deal it is to possess them.'
But that doesn't make them the most special thing either.
They aren't a first of its kind skill like what he possesses. They aren't a Beginning but an inheritance. So even if they grow alongside me, what they do and what they will be able to do is already limited.
And still… they are so important that even the divine beings that we have met until now have praised them unlike anything else and have shown a peculiar interest in them.
'They are something precious.'
That much we have come to know already.
But, still… to me, they are sometimes very annoying.
Though…
"Whaaaaaaa! Whaaaaaaa! Just one month! Just one month is left! Whaaaaaaa!"
"I haven't finished half of the things yet. Some teachers haven't even finished their courses yet! What the hell is wrong with all of them?!"
"Man… what am I gonna do…? One month is not nearly enough to cover everything…"
"I don't even understand why everyone is stressing up so much.
We already know everything that has been taught so-."
"You know everything that has been taught until now…? How?! How is that possible when the only thing you do all day is play around with multiple girls?!"
"Don't shout at that bastard, Med. He's smart and understands everything that is being taught to him.
Bastard isn't called one of the prodigies of the golden era for nothing."
"Fuck, fuck, fuck… what if they ask us to do those practice things in manners and such subjects?!
I don't know how to speak elven yet!"
My eyes aren't nearly as annoying as this bunch of dumb friends that I have raised.
This was going on for twenty minutes now, and I've had enough.
-Dhump!
"What is wrong with you all?"
I smacked the fork in my hand on the wooden table and everyone fell quiet as soon as they heard that voice.
"It's just the midterms. It's not some kind of war that will decide your entire future, you fools."
First of all, they were panicking for nothing.
'They know very well the papers of the academy's every exam was created for individual students and every single one of them would be unique in some way.'
Even if the theory questions might seem the same, they were evaluated uniquely for every student and since the tests were taken in a special space, there was no way for others to cheat on anything either.
They had to write and do what was asked in the tests, and if they couldn't do it, there was no penalty.
Points were given based on what kind of actions they take and what kind of answer they write. And, since the one that checked these papers was the headmasters, sir ancient oak and the special judging panels that the headmaster himself arranges.
There was no room for any kind of prejudice or discrimination so, these exams were purely a test to see what one had learned in all their time in this academy.
"In the first midterms, the academy confirms the true potential that they had evaluated at the beginning of our academy life.
In the first main exams, they tested what we had learned in the one year we had been here.
In the second midterms, they see what improvements we have made, and in the second one, they brutally prune out the dead branches that are polluting the rest of the bodies— or in simpler terms, they second year midterm is the most difficult exams of them all since we don't get to choose the subject papers.
In the second end Sam though, things go very easily since the tests are mostly connected with the extracurricular activities.
And lastly, in the third year… we have fun."
They knew all these things since many of the teachers must have told them how the academy's testing system works.
They already knew most of the things that a common student of the academy should know before giving their first ever exams, so I did not see what the problem was here.
"You all have attended more than half of the classes that have been held.
You have never received any disciplinary punishments as far as I know.
you have not slacked off during the classes and have learned at least half of the things that have been taught so… you all should already know that you are going to pass.
I don't see the problem here.
Do you want to top all of your subjects or something?"
If that were the case, they wouldn't be playing around like that after lunch and would have gone to study like the rest of the people that were not present here were doing.
'Getting the higher scores will depend entirely on one's abilities and their evaluation that the paper judges make.'
Mia knew that well, and so did Tia, Alpha, Luna, and a few others.
Actually, almost half of the captains were studying by themselves right now or in pairs, while the rest of us were here, trying to relax a little.
"Hmmm…? Topping the subjects…? How will we top the subjects if we don't even know everything that has been taught."
Tia seriously was a competitive one, so I didn't have to deal with her. But, sadly, Lizzzy, Quin, and Carla were being a headache for us.
"We were trying to take a nap… but thanks to this bunch, even that seemed impossible now.'
And they did not even realise how disturbing they were being right now… bastards.
"Haaa. Here's advice for you all."
Just these few of my words piqued their interest unlike anything else had in these last few minutes.
"Get each other's notes, or… check the notes that we have posted on our group forums.
Go through the main topics named <Important> and when you are done with the theory part, go to the library and ask the Liberian to give you the (Practise test orbs) of the last three years corresponding to the subject you want to study first.
Do this, and you will not only pass, but get a decent enough score."
Not many people knew the existence of these test crystals… and even if everyone gets to know about them after this, they aren't going to be able to use those things since they aren't a free property of the academy.
'They belong to the librarian, and she only loans them over to the ones she likes… or the ones acquainted with the ones she likes.'
And it's not cheap. So aside from these rich brats, there shouldn't be that many who will be able to afford them.
"What…? There's something like that?"
Carla, Quin, Chry, Ball, Lizzy, even Eula was surprised something like this existed.
Alf was reading on the other side, but as soon as he heard me say that, he got up, pulled Bell along and started running towards the library.
"Look at him go… hahaha."
Even though he was confident about these exams, the existence of something that might let you experience how the exams are taken was not something anyone could ignore.
"Go run if you want to chat up with them~."
They were disturbing our rest but, now that they have this new motivator…
"Right. See you later!"
They all started running behind them one by one. And at last… we were left alone in this peaceful shed.
"You didn't have to tell them about them… she won't give them those things that easily anyway."
He had been sleeping on my lap with his eyes closed, unbothered by the commotion when the one more tired was me.
Not that I mind this…
"They wanted a solution, I gave them what they wanted.
Now it's up to them to convince her.
And they almost have a month anyway. I don't see any of them failing."
After all… they had learned from us as well.
Failing in these exams was not going to be possible even if they deliberately wanted to.
"Haaa…"
"Wanna switch up?"
"Yes please."
Finally, I can have a peaceful nap.
