"Second place?"
On the other side, Rozen, who had already received his admission notice, looked at his tested abilities and final scores, raising an eyebrow.
"After all..."
"Since my time at the Royal Academy of Machinart in Liverpool, I never thought I'd have a chance to get second place..."
Rozen muttered these words, sounding somewhat self-deprecating, as if it were a fresh experience.
But for Rozen, this could indeed be considered a rare occurrence.
In the world of Machinart, although Rozen is also in second place, his scores at the Machinart Academy are perfect, on par with the first place Magnus. It's just that because he just started school and hasn't shown any performance yet, he was placed behind Magnus.
But this time, Rozen really got second place.
"There are no written tests here, let alone practical combat results, only the entrance exam scores based on the level of abilities."
Just like Rozen, after entering Hagun Academy and deciding to take the entrance exam, he immediately underwent a series of tests, not testing academic knowledge or combat ability, but only testing various aspects of ability levels.
In this situation, Rozen naturally couldn't use techniques like the Crimson Wing Formation seriously, let alone unlock the seals inside him, or even summon any familiars or Beast Vassals. He didn't even use any of the spells he knew. He simply tested his attack power, defense power, mana quantity, mana control, and physical ability at the request of the chief examiner.
As a result, although Rozen didn't take it seriously at all, in his opinion, in a world where magical power is everything, just by demonstrating his mana quantity alone, he should have easily gotten first place in the entrance exam.
You should know that under normal circumstances, although Rozen's magical power is not at an inhuman level, he has extraordinary talent since childhood, with extremely excellent magic circuits. If his mana quantity is considered in human terms, he is definitely at the forefront of the world.
In this way, in a world where there is only one A-level Blazer in each of the seven Knight Schools, Rozen's ability to demonstrate that level of magical power and achieve an A-level rating should unquestionably have put him in first place.
Who would have thought that someone like Stella Vermillion would suddenly emerge?
"Stella Vermillion...?"
Rozen pondered.
This time, Rozen did not arrive in this world as before, in a condition where he had not even retained memories.
Perhaps the difference in the flow of time is not as large as in previous worlds, so this time, when Rozen descended, he appeared on a deserted island as a five-year-old child.
Because his brain had developed to receive all memories at the age of two, Rozen, who descended in a five-year-old state, naturally did not get adopted by anyone like in previous worlds, but left the island on his own, wandering on the sea and wandering in various countries, only to find a way to save Altera's original body.
However, ten whole years have passed, and Rozen has left many traces in various parts of the world, but he has not been able to find a useful method.
This island nation is the last stop of Rozen's wandering through various countries.
In the past, Rozen had also been here, but he had gained nothing. After circumnavigating the ocean, Rozen once again came to this country and, not knowing what to do next, heard about the entrance exam for the Knight School, so he decided to go with the flow and stop wandering, stay at this academy for a few years first, relax, and then figure out what to do.
And since he has been wandering in this world for a full ten years, Rozen naturally would not be unaware of the situation in this world.
For example, the country of Vermillion, Rozen had heard of it and even visited it.
It is a small country located in Europe that gained independence from neighboring countries a long time ago and still maintains a monarchy.
Naturally, this country is not powerful, and the highest level of Blazer in the country is only C-level, which can be easily defeated by a powerful Blazer. However, the second princess of the Vermillion Empire broke this deadlock and became directly famous for her terrifying magical power that surpassed any Blazers in the world.
Her magical power is thirty times that of new students.
Not thirty times that of ordinary people, but thirty times that of new students.
Since the new students at Hagun Academy must have at least E-level Blazers to be allowed to enroll, and even if it is average, it is not surprising to be D-level or C-level.
The second princess of the Vermillion Empire has magical power equivalent to more than thirty times that of C-level or D-level.
Therefore, Stella Vermillion became undoubtedly the world's strongest magical power holder, at least on record.
Because of this, the news of the princess entering Hagun Academy caused quite a stir.
"A genius knight seen once in a decade! Her Royal Highness Stella Vermillion, the second princess of the Vermillion Empire, will enter Hagun Academy with the highest scores in history!"
Such news spread across the streets and alleys not long ago, and Rozen remembers it vividly.
Of course, although it is said to be vivid, Rozen soon put this matter behind him and no longer paid attention to it, otherwise he wouldn't have ended up in second place.
Even if she has the world's strongest magical power, it doesn't mean that this princess is the world's strongest Blazer, at most, it's just that her magical power is much higher than others.
That being said, in a world where magical power is everything, having such magical power means that this princess will eventually stand at the top of the world and bring about the greatest level of impact on the world.
So, even if she is not the strongest in the world right now, with the magical power of this princess, she will eventually become the strongest in the world, right?
Rozen entered the same academy as such a person.
"I'm quite curious."
Rozen gave this feeling.
However, at most, it's just a feeling.
After all, even though Rozen's magical power under normal circumstances is inferior to Stella Vermillion, who has the world's strongest magical power, it is not much different. It is twenty-eight times the average, in other words, if Rozen were to use the Crimson Wing Formation, his mana would be two hundred and eighty times the average, not to mention the magical power after unlocking the seals, which would be at the level of dragon veins or even the entire planet.
"But, for the people of this world, magical power is determined at birth. Even if I say I can autonomously increase the total amount of magical power, no one would believe it, right?"
The Blazer of this world are somewhat similar to the mages of Chaldea, where fate determines the amount of magical power, and the quality of the magic circuits determines the amount of magical power, and neither can be changed.
In addition to his past experiences, Rozen has reason to believe.
"If I go all out, there probably won't be anyone stronger than me in this world."
This also led Rozen to do many absurd things around the world.
Now...
"Let's just be a student honestly for a few years, and it's time to return to a life of diligent training."
Rozen made this decision and, with his admission notice in hand, received his student uniform and headed to the student dormitory.
