Unlike other academies, the Faculty of Mechatronics had a total of four academic years, starting from first-year freshmen and ending with fourth-year graduates. There was a very strict hierarchy.
That was because the Faculty of Mechatronics was completely based on strength. Those with outstanding results would be given generous treatment, while those with poor results would only receive the lowest level of protection. The difference was quite obvious.
The so-called academic ability test was used to determine such treatment.
In the Faculty of Mechatronics, all students would be ranked according to their respective results. Therefore, every regular inspection would determine the rankings and treatment of the students in the Faculty of Mechatronics.
Even for transfer students, in order to determine their treatment in the Faculty of Mechatronics in the future, the Faculty of Mechatronics would specially organize a temporary academic test.
Under Kimberly's arrangement, Rozen participated in this academic test.
To be honest, Rozen did not care much about this academic test.
From the past until now, Rozen had never worried about the problem of results.
Including Rozen, there were a total of 1,236 students in this year's Faculty of Mechatronics.
As for Rozen …
"Let's finish this quickly."
With this thought in mind, Rozen received the test paper.
As soon as he saw the test paper, Rozen did not even pause for a moment. Just like when he was in Yin Yang School, he spent ten minutes filling up the paper and directly handed it to the surprised Kimberly.
Then, Rozen walked out of the exam venue.
Ye Ye was waiting for Rozen outside the door. Seeing that Rozen finished the test in ten minutes, she was not surprised at all. Instead, she said so with a proud face.
"As expected of Narukami."
"I told you to call me Rozen."
"Okay, dear."
"… Don't force me to do it, really."
The two of them played around in the corridor as if there was no one else around, not worried about the problem of results at all.
It was not until a while later that Kimberly came out.
"Your report card is out. Take it."
Kimberly very directly threw the results to Rozen and let Rozen catch it.
Rozen just glanced at her, and then he was about to look away.
However, just as Rozen was about to shift his gaze away, the ranking that entered his eyes caused him to be startled.
"101st place?"
Such a result caused Rozen's brows to twitch slightly, and his gaze could no longer shift away.
"Wh … what?" Ye Ye was also stunned. After confirming that the ranking on the report card was indeed 101st, she said in astonishment, "How could this be?"
Obviously, Yaya didn't expect that it would end up like this.
Rozen, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes as if he knew something.
Kimberly, who had been watching Rozen's performance, remained unmoved.
"What? Can't accept your results? "
Kimberly asked this question indifferently.
101st place.
In this academy with a total of 1,236 students, such a ranking was already considered very high.
After all, this was a gathering of geniuses from all over the world. Being able to rank 101st among these geniuses was enough for any country's companies to actively recruit them.
In that case, there was nothing to be dissatisfied with with such a ranking.
It's just …
"If this is really my result."
So Rozen spread his hands and said with a faint smile.
Hearing Rozen's words, Kimberly pushed her glasses.
"You're very smart." Kimberly gave such an evaluation and said, "I think you've already guessed that this is not your real result."
That's it.
"Your score in the test is full. Even if you look at the entire academy, only one person can match you."
Kimberly explained calmly.
"Logically speaking, even if you can't get the first place, it's not a problem for you to get the second place."
But now, a problem arose.
"Since you're so smart, you should know about the Night Assembly, right?"
Kimberly asked.
The Night Assembly.
That was a quadrennial feast held in the Walpurgis Royal Academy of Mechanical Engineering.
The reason why the academy had a four-year system was because every four years, there would be a banquet like this held here.
Its purpose was to select the best puppeteers of the same era, and let the best students in the academy fight until there was only one person left. That person would be regarded as the best existence of the same era, and get the title that symbolized the best and most powerful — — Demon King.
Of course, if it was just a title, there might not be many people who wanted to stand out in the Night Assembly.
However, the Night Assembly was recognized by the Magus Association and enjoyed privileges that others could not have.
The winner of the Night Assembly, the person who got the title of Demon King, would not be bound by the International Magic Charter and the magus' ethics.
In other words, the Demon King could freely read the forbidden arts, use dangerous forbidden techniques, conduct forbidden research, and so on, becoming a special person beyond the common sense of the world.
That led to countless people crazily pursuing the title of Demon King, even the world's strongest forces couldn't ignore it.
Even in the world, blatant research on forbidden arts was not allowed. Once unauthorized research was carried out, the Magus Association would be responsible for investigating.
In view of this, in order to get the title of Demon King, enjoy the privilege of researching forbidden arts, and strengthen the country's military power, even the world's countries would send their best talents to the academy to participate in the Night Assembly. If someone got the title of Demon King, the world's countries would even pay a great price to win that person over.
At that time, no matter which country's army, the Demon King would have the same treatment as an officer. No matter what kind of request it was, it would be fulfilled.
Therefore, the Demon King was a throne that could allow one to obtain wealth, fame, knowledge, and power. It was a throne that could allow one to possess almost anything.
And those who could pursue the title of Demon King and participate in the Night Assembly were the top 100 students in the academy.
"There is an executive department in the academy that is responsible for the selection of the Night Assembly. Students who can get the qualification to participate in the Night Assembly are recognized by the executive department and will be awarded exclusive gloves by the academy."
Kimberly looked at Rozen, her cold eyes revealed a hint of temptation.
"In that case, you should be able to understand why your ranking is only 101st, right?"
Is there a need to ask?
"Because the Night Assembly's executive department hasn't recognized me yet, so my ranking can only reach 101st and can't go further, right?"
Rozen said.
"Correct." Kimberly nodded and said: "We will provide your results to the Night Assembly's executive department. As long as the Night Assembly's executive department approves, then your ranking can be promoted to 50th, and you will be allowed to participate in the Night Assembly."
Upon hearing that, Rozen was interested.
"Even if the Night Assembly's executive department approves, my ranking can only reach 50th?"
So Rozen asked such a question.
"That's right." Kimberly said indifferently: "Because the students before and after the 50th are different. The selection isn't based on academic ability, but strength."
Therefore, based on the academic ability test alone, Rozen could only get 50th at most and he had to wait for the Night Assembly's executive department to approve it.
Currently, Rozen's ranking in the academy was only 101st.
"I've never gotten such a low ranking before." So Rozen muttered to himself: "Forget it, it will only make things a little more troublesome anyway."
Saying so, Rozen tossed the results in his hand away.
"Alright, let's go, Ye Ye."
Rozen called out and walked forward on his own.
"Yes!"
Ye Ye seemed to be infatuated with Rozen's carefree manner. Her eyes were filled with love as she followed up and wanted to hold Rozen's hand, but Rozen knocked her on the head and she lowered her head dejectedly.
Kimberly didn't try to persuade him to stay.
"Your dorm is at Raphael Men's Hostel. I've already informed the dorm supervisor. You can go and find your own room."
Kimberly gave such an unreasonable notice, but in return, Rozen waved his hand nonchalantly.
At this time, Kimberly turned around and looked at Rozen's back as he left.
On his indifferent face was a thought-provoking sneer.
