"Just kidding," I muttered before slashing its eyes and then slitting its throat with a quick sidestep.
Okay, that should be more than enough for to get into an average school and also get into a few scholarship programs.
Most people do end up killing this monster, but nowhere near as fast as I, so I'll give up the next round after putting up a good fight.
…
HUFF HUFF HUFF HUFF
The next round was much harder than I thought… and I didn't make it any easier on myself by holding back against a juiced-up dire wolf.
I was a bit disappointed when they brought out a regular one, but when I noticed how fast and strong it was, I debated whether holding back was a good idea.
I was sure sobody would step in just before I would get severely injured or potentially die, but… that isn't guaranteed.
I was just a poor kid from the slums, from an orphanage, and was dirty all the ti, so it wasn't guaranteed that they would help .
"So… I'll just give up," I muttered while raising my hands high into the air.
Psh
Suddenly, a net was shot out from one of the surrounding walls and captured the dire wolf just before it could chomp off my head.
I feel like I put up a decent enough attempt… let's see who… wants… … what the fuck?
Suddenly, all the headmasters sitting up there stood up from their comfortable seats, and as they walked towards the glass pane separating us, it disappeared into thin air.
"Boy, that was impressive… Holding back the entire ti, I an," A woman with long black hair and beautiful green eyes said.
She was dressed in black and green robes with a cape made of raven feathers, in addition to a beauty that was only matched with the other woman standing up there.
"Oh… you caught onto that? Well, just let pass with a diocre score, please. If any of you give offers, I'll be rejecting them anyway, but I won't decline a single gift," I smirked and then scanned the row of about ten teachers.
Everybody looked high class, handso, beautiful; you na it. All the wonders of the world were displayed by the people in front of .
But, one man caught my eye, and his presence also made back up slightly.
"Hey! Kid! It's been a while!" A man with long black hair and a fancy gold mask said.
He was the only one wearing a face mask in the group of ten teachers, so he instantly stood out when I took a closer look at everybody.
His hair had been tied into a ponytail, and his dapper suit practically shone with glistening magic.
Bam
Suddenly, he jumped down from his watching area and walked right up to , causing to back up… as I only had bad mories with him.
"W-What do you want?"
"Don't worry, kid. I only attacked you because you attacked … but it seems you've grown a bit since the last ti I saw you… and did you dye your hair a darker shade?"
He continued to approach while I continuously backed away, eyeing the other teachers who just chuckled as if this was so kind of joke.
"Hey! He's going to fucking kill ! Help !" I shouted, but they just continued to laugh.
"Okay, fine, I'll stay here. I just wanted to see if it really was you, and that mature tone and attitude gave everything I needed to know," He muttered before stopping in place.
"Kid! Ignore that guy and co with ! We have the best education for fighters like you who wield a sword!"
"No! You seem pretty smart, so co with ! My school has so special materials that you can use in the future when you want a specific class!"
"We have the best education on fighting with all types of warriors!"
"If you want to try out so guns, we have so guns! We also have so beautiful students that I'm sure you could easily get your hand on!"
"We have amazing students that can help you out! Your peers will help lift you up!"
Everybody had semi-convincing answers, but I had already settled on the school I wanted to attend… until the man before spoke so unforgettable words.
"Hey, I can give you a body rune if you want? Just co with , and you'll have so pretty decent education out of the way from the eyes of rich people… I can tell what you're thinking," The man said with a large smile.
Everybody in the room went silent… before resurging with an even more trendous uproar.
"We can give you the best weapon you'll ever see! Our materials are also the highest quality, so you can learn to forge your weapon as you please!"
"We have special toxins that can help you beco immune to all kinds of poison! You won't ever fall from just a slip of a packet!"
"We have elental runes that can help you build resistance to all kinds of magic, weapons, and monsters!"
Soon, the offers beca much more intriguing, and I was thinking of trying to scam them, but getting on their bad side would just be stupid for a montary boost in power.
I might need their assistance later on when regaining a position within my family.
"How about you all wait a bit. I might not even live up to your expectations so wait for to get out of middle school and co to a final conclusion… and I'll be selecting this guy's offer, only on one condition,"
"Oh? Are you sure about that? You were already going to co here anyway, so I can just reject you, and you'll co crawling back," He said with a taunting smile.
"Alright, whoever had the poison offer, I'll take your deal-"
"Wait! Wait! Stop! Stop! Fine! I'll listen to your condition!"
