Most people might have experienced this before. The more time was pressing, the more things one wanted to do, and the busier one was, the more pressure one felt. There was not enough time, and there were too many things to do.
But when the countdown was about to end, and the final test was in front of them, with only two or three days left, they would often be idle.
No matter if they were fully prepared, adjusted their state to deal with the critical moment, or simply gave up, the last two days would often be so idle that they couldn't get used to it.
At this moment, Rorschach was probably in such a state.
"… How boring."
With the help of the homeroom teacher, or perhaps out of respect, the other teachers didn't make things too difficult for Rorschach. In the end, the credits given were still above the safety line.
The final exam and the club competition were originally meant to be a practical combat test, and Rorschach successfully completed it with his rare diligence.
The various final exams were mainly a test of personal skills and knowledge. After all, the first year was the default stage of laying the foundation. The major subjects had just begun, so the difficulty wasn't too high.
Although Rorschach spent a lot of effort, and even had panda eye bags, he still managed to make up for the passing standards of the course and skills.
As for actual combat … in front of Roxia, who was serious and had removed all restrictions on his sword techniques, as well as a Class 2 Ranger, Class 2 Warrior Monk, Class 1 Mage, and Class 3 Fire Elemental Swordsman, a Class 2 Ranger, a Class 2 Warrior Monk, a Class 1 Mage, and a Class 3 Fire Elemental Swordsman, a Class 1 Mage, and a Class 3 Fire Elemental Swordsman, a Class 1 Mage was nothing more than bullying.
Even though Rorschach used the school's antique magic armor in order to keep it as secret as possible, the magic armor was originally an enhancement device for the user. When the user's strength reached a certain level, the antique magic armor would still be able to crush the advanced magic armor.
Due to the pressure of repeating a year, Rorschach couldn't hold back anymore. With the blank dragonfly knight, not only did he successfully crush many of his peers, he also obtained a good amount of practical combat credits.
It could be said that although the process was difficult, the exam was originally meant to test a student's ability and knowledge. After making up for enough practical combat credits, Rorschach's ability reached the standard and successfully passed the test of death. For the time being, he didn't have to worry about repeating a year … At least, he didn't have to worry about it before the final exam.
What they had really invested the most effort into was the multi-school league that seemed to be just to make up the numbers.
The Third Gaming Club blazed a path through all the obstacles, killing the lower grade groups and attracting the attention of the school. A few of the main members even attracted the attention of other clubs and churches, and all kinds of invitations were sent over.
However, only Rorschach knew that this competition was probably prepared for him. The others were not even serious about it.
That was obviously a group practice for the upcoming Kamisen Duel. Everyone displayed their abilities, special skills, combat styles, and commonly used magic armors in front of Rorschach. They also gave various suggestions to Rorschach.
A battle group with Rorschach as the core was being polished and matured through actual combat. Rorschach was taking on more and more responsibilities as the organizer and brain. Originally, he thought that this was beyond his ability, but Su Nanna's words dispelled Rorschach's concerns.
"Don't just look at what's in front of you. Think about Ansorenne. Just the ability to see through the fog and create a communication network that can ignore interference in the magic fog is enough for you to be a natural commander with a Gold-grade team talent."
"Yes, no matter which New God's church you are in, as long as you display your abilities, they will create a battle group with you as the core. Instead of thinking about whether you can do it or not, why don't you learn more and strive to do it? If you really can't do it, we can always find someone else. "
Since even Mentor Adeline said so, Rorschach could only work hard.
Since it was actual combat training, it was more of a training session for the Descenders of the Church of Games. Not to mention a nominal instructor like Instructor Adeline, even the Master participated in a few battles as a Ranger's pet … or rather, animal companion.
In fact, it was too much for even Su Nanna to participate in this kind of competition for the lower grades.
And so, the clubs that worked very, very hard to win, and the youths who wanted to grab the opportunity to be noticed by the larger clubs and churches, were really unlucky.
Not only did they become training partners, they were repeatedly toyed with by the "adults" who shouldn't have appeared. There were even some who were clearly defeated, yet the other side strangely returned to the starting point and started all over again.
"Isn't this already an insult?"
Unfortunately, only the referees would be able to sense that something was wrong. However, it seemed that there were no rules against toying with the opponent, so the Third Game Club continued toying with the opponent.
Although it was a joke, the goal of the actual combat training was indeed achieved. Rorschach now had a thorough understanding of the abilities of his members. Thoroughly understanding a member's abilities was the foundation for becoming a qualified commander.
It was just like how a chess player didn't even know the rules or the abilities of each chess piece, so there was no need to think about victory.
Although Rorschach tried to practice some battle tactics … when everyone was capable of crushing their opponents on the battlefield, the battle tactics wouldn't be effective at all.
The only information he got was that Su Nanna alone could wipe out the entire team in the middle of the night, Isabella's magic couldn't be blocked at all, and the master's physical body was capable of dismantling machines.
Obviously, this competition organized by the school for the lower grades was still too small a pond for the Game Church which had brought out its elite core members.
It wasn't that he didn't gain anything. With his companions taking the initiative to confess, Rorschach had a better understanding of his companions' abilities. At the same time, he also learned how close he had been to death … With his mouth, he still hadn't died after courting death. Su Nanna, Mentor Adeline, and the other dark elves had really good personalities.
Know thyself, know thy enemy, and thou shalt be victorious in every battle. Just knowing the information on his own side wasn't enough.
On the day that the list of participants for the Battle of the Gods was submitted, Rorschach obtained it. According to the rules, it was only possible to obtain the list of opponents on the same day … Considering that his opponents should be the same as well, Rorschach didn't feel that he had much of an advantage.
The battle of the unrestricted strongest individuals was placed in the first round. However, it was indeed the only competition without a list. The ones who would go up would probably be the strongest individuals under the command of the Gods on both sides.
The second round was the individual battle between the newcomers that Rorschach had to participate in. Naturally, the Game Church sent Rorschach to participate. As expected, the opponent would be Ariel.
Rorschach became even more displeased when he saw that the conditions for victory were that one side would either lose consciousness or die (regardless of life or death). His malice was overflowing.
If Rorschach didn't die, there would be a third round of the competition. This round was limited to six people and six magic armors. Since the second round's participants had to participate in the third round of the competition, according to this rule, the side that lost in the second round would naturally have one less person. They would lose before the battle even started … This was obviously a rule that the other side had proposed. Did they really want to see Rorschach die that badly?
"I definitely can't lose the second round."
However, Rorschach's main focus was the opponent's team list.
To everyone's surprise, Rorschach's guess turned out to be a reality. Ariel's May Rain Club joined the competition.
"… I thought that the War God or whatever would use a direct descendant. After all, this is related to his personal benefits. "
But after asking Molly, Rorschach realized that his thoughts were off the mark. Or, it could be said that he misunderstood the identities of the Gods and descenders.
