If it were a few days ago, seeing so many nobles enrolling at Toby Magic and Martial Arts Academy, Ron would have been happy for Yuna. (￣￣￣??)??°
The college sponsored by Yuna is showing great promise.
Now, all these nobles have turned their attention to Ron.
Suddenly, Ron felt that Yuna was doing too well at her job, and now it wasn't a good thing...
That's it, it seems like keeping a low profile is impossible now.
The little princess is very lovable, and naturally, for some reason, Ron is likely to get into trouble.
Noble etiquette is of utmost importance, even if one is extremely unwilling.
In reality, Ron fulfilled the responsibilities expected of a nobleman.
He politely bowed to all the nobles and a few commoners present, and then sat down respectfully.
Because of Ron's actions, some of the noble ladies put aside their potential hostility and instead became curious about Ron. As for the young noblemen...
The apparent hostility has disappeared, but who knows if Ron will be targeted later!
How to solve this?
o_o ....
After a short while, Ron had made up his mind.
Originally, given Ron's low-key approach to life, he would only skip a grade at the end of the first year, a time when he could spend in the library.
And now...
I'll skip it then, I'll skip a grade right now.
So what if someone is a genius? So what if a fallen baron's genius is noteworthy?
As long as I can get away from this glaringly troublesome little princess, it's all worth it!
After Ron made his plan.
She rose slowly once again with aristocratic grace, this time ignoring the gazes of the others.
He turned to face the beautiful female teacher in the class.
As luck would have it, the beautiful teacher was the same one who gave the speech at the opening ceremony.
Penny then turned her gaze to the nobleman who had been sleeping.
Kid, under my Penny's tutelage, even geniuses have to behave themselves.
However… these were the first words Ron said to her.
“Teacher, Ron is applying to take the final exams early. The material for this year’s exams is too easy and not suitable for me.”
...
...
What do you mean he's not suitable for her!
Arrogant!
The whole class was astonished; he had skipped a grade right after entering school.
It should be noted that the final exams at every magic and martial arts academy are not easy to pass; even free institutions have their strict aspects.
Few students try to skip grades as soon as they enter school.
All eyes were on them once again, but this time it wasn't because of the little princess, but because of Ron's overestimation of his abilities.
Skip a grade? Just wait to get a scolding from the teacher!
So what if he's a nobleman? The teacher who teaches nobles is naturally qualified to discipline them. Even the king wouldn't have the face to seek justice, let alone Ron, the heir to a minor baronship.
They even fell into poverty, to the point that in recent years the kingdom was little known.
Teacher Penny chuckled inwardly. "Kid, he's about to be caught so quickly. This guy dared to sleep so openly!"
The little princess was still surprised by Ron's behavior, but Ron was polite yet firm in his tone.
Princess Shirley couldn't help but have some confidence in Ron.
But isn't Ron only talented in potions? Is he also a genius in magic and martial arts?
The little princess was inwardly confused, but in reality, Penny said, "Okay, as your teacher, I agree to your request now. I hope you really meet the requirements for the final exam."
The teacher agreed; this is going to be interesting!
The students were truly surprised to find themselves in such a dramatic situation right at the start of the semester.
Some students wondered if the princess was sitting next to Ron, wondering if Ron might actually be quite capable.
...
With differing opinions, the group arrived at the garden training ground.
Ron took the magic longsword that Vivian handed him.
The Demon Swordsman is both a swordsman and a magician, while the teacher on the other side is a pure magician.
The primary role of mages is during legion wars.
It has area-of-effect magic attacks, but is relatively weak in one-on-one combat.
However, this is only relative. There are single-target spells and other spells that are advantageous to magic swordsmen, and experienced magicians are not necessarily weaker when fighting in pairs.
Ron is determined to go all out to get rid of Princess Sherry, as it concerns his chances of escaping her clutches!
The crowd gathered at a distance, while in the center of the arena, Ron drew his sword, bowed, and said again, "Teacher Penny, we may begin."
The servant had told Ron his teacher's name when he arrived, and Ron knew Penny's name.
As Ron's teacher, Penny knew his full name: "Ron Lance, have you thought this through? Final exams are coming up so soon. If you get injured, it could interfere with your studies."
"Teacher, you can rest assured, Ron Lance is confident in passing your assessment!"
"Good, as expected of my genius class student. All the rest of you, listen up! Ron is a gifted individual with all four elemental attributes at a high level. His courage is commendable!"
...
"What!"
"So Ron is actually a super genius with a perfect affinity for all four elements!"
"Those with a strong affinity for the first degree are eligible to be selected for the genius class, while those with two degrees may be considered for exemption from the exam, depending on the number of geniuses that year. Those with three degrees can directly enter the genius class, and those with four degrees... what academy can't they attend?"
"No wonder the little princess sits next to him."
"No way... the spot for the little princess's guardian knight has already been decided!"
"..."
Guardian Knights: Each princess has a certain number of guardian knights. The legends of princesses and knights in beautiful fairy tales are real.
Moreover, each guardian knight belongs to a noble class, but only the lowest noble class, the first rank.
High-ranking nobles may not care about their titles, but the second sons of nobles or commoners do care a great deal.
Throughout the kingdom's history, many knights were later granted the titles of baron, and there were also quite a few viscount knights.
Princess Sherry was also hearing for the first time that Ron had such a talent, and that Yuna was being biased and not telling her.
Thinking about this, I'm also curious whether Ron will be able to skip a grade.
Apart from the male nobles, the other female nobles understood the princess's actions even better, thinking, "Could this be the future guardian knight? His appearance is just like the knight in the legend!"
Some young noblewomen quietly cheered for Ron.
Indeed, Ron's polite behavior earlier had earned him a lot of points; he was composed and appropriate.
Exactly, skipping a grade upon enrollment isn't a good thing... It seems Ms. Penny isn't going to let this go easily.
...
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the grade-skipping assessment began.
Ron thought to himself, "Why did the teacher reveal the academy's information?"
It's possible they're trying to elevate him to put him down, but... he's Ron!
So what if the teacher is beautiful and capable? She'll still pass the assessment.
"start!"
He calmly observed Penny's actions while holding his sword.
The teacher eagerly cast a spell, and soon a magic circle appeared in front of her.
Ron paid no attention to the incantation or anything else.
rush!
The wind element follows your feet.
With a single step, it leaves no trace, like walking on snow, and makes a light, straight-line impact.
The first strike, a probing attack.
The aim is to be fast.
It's a pity that I rushed close but wasn't fast enough to interrupt the teacher's magic.
"Swamp Technique!"
Just as he was about to enter the swamp, Ron dodged to the side and charged forward again.
Suddenly, a water bullet struck Ron's left shoulder.
This magic isn't very powerful, but it's incredibly fast!
Oh no! I dodged to the side again, and the teacher's fireball missed its target.
If that fireball hits you, you'll likely be lying down for a while, even if there's a healing mage or priest nearby.
The teacher was a bit too harsh.
Ron, however, thought it was time to get serious…
With a single sword stroke, he cleaved a water bullet in two, the water droplets glancing across Ron's eyes.
The incantation is chanted, and spiritual power draws in the elements to form a small, single-unit magic circle.
A single-target spell exclusive to magic swordsmen.
Wind Blade!
A gust of wind finally interrupted the teacher's spell, and Ron rushed forward.
In the training ground, the sunlight shone directly down, and everyone's attention was focused on Ron's sword.
At this moment, teacher Penny remained calm and composed, her beautiful eyes showing appreciation for the first time.
"Little genius, your strength is not bad, but..."
Suddenly, another magical attack, an earth-based wall spell.
This was originally a defensive spell, but the skilled mage used it at the right moment, and the momentum of the impact caused Ron to lose his balance and crash into it.
Ron has a wide affinity for multiple elemental types, and his methods are equally diverse.
A rare application of the fire attribute.
Fire has its own explosive power, and its effect is not limited to burning.
The application is extremely popular, operating in a very small area, where mental power suppresses the fire element, causing it to erupt explosively.
Explosive Step!
With the power below and Ron's own guidance, he finally stepped onto the highest earthen wall.
The sword struck straight down, but as the magic teacher faced Ron, another magic circle appeared.
"Little genius, you've got some skills."
"And this one! Blazing Breath!"
The longsword was about to meet the flames head-on.
In critical moments, the mental control of an elementalist is put to the ultimate test.
As far as Ron's soul and mental strength are concerned, meditating for a period of time almost every night is enough.
Use your mental power to control the water element and attach it to the magic sword as much as possible to unleash its power.
The sword emanates a blue, water-like light. At the same time, when fire elements threaten to harm Ron, the magical artifact's light manifests, minimizing the impact.
With a single sword stroke, he cleaved through the flames, his sword aimed at the magic teacher.
"Ms. Penny, have I passed the assessment?"
The audience was filled with amazement.
Even if they won... they used magical items, and those magical items still drew boos from many students...
Ron was too lazy to explain. If these guys had come, the teacher would have at least the strength of a level seven or higher professional, and it would have been good enough if he could have a superficial advantage.
If he really goes all out, Ron won't have much of a chance.
Because teachers can't easily use deadly magic during assessments, one person holds back while the other goes all out, naturally creating an opportunity for victory.
Magic teacher Penny straightened her clothes and stepped back.
She looked at Ron with a hint of helplessness: "So, you nobles really have a lot of magic crystals. You passed that Explosive Flame Magic before, was it really necessary to show off all your magic crystals?"
What level of precious magic sword was it? They didn't even use all the magic items for safety and survival. Yuna had already given Ron and Vivian their so-called secret weapon.
We can't afford to be missing one person next time we're playing mahjong. Yuna is even more attentive to this than Ron is.
I never knew that Ms. Penny wasn't a noblewoman. Could her magical talent possibly reach the master level?
No wonder he became a teacher in the gifted class for the first year of school.
It passed.
That's how it is, isn't that the obvious thing?
Ron's happiness didn't even last a few seconds!
Princess Shirley suddenly declared, "This princess requests to take the final exams early!"
“Baron Ron is very thoughtful. I was worried that Baron Ron wouldn’t be able to keep up with me… Now, everything is resolved.”
Ron's expression could only be described as a bitter smile. He had read online before that a bitter smile could be a sign of suffering.
There really was a wry smile on my face. ┬┬﹏┬┬
Shouldn't I be happy? Why can't I feel happy again?
The princess skipped a grade; her strength might be just barely enough, but she's equipped with magical items and has already received the necessary pre-enrollment education.
The little princess doesn't have the same concern about the impact as other members of the royal family.
He passed the assessment and skipped two grades upon enrollment.
The princess could understand, but... Ron... the heir to a remote baron.
Rumor has it that the princess skipped a grade, possibly because of Ron.
The world has gone mad.
Ron had no choice but to begin his life accompanying the princess to her classes.
But how could that be? Potions class in the second year of school!
How come it's you... Bolton?
