I Possessed It Instead of My Younger Sibling

21 – The Talented Yu Jeongran

Waaa

The moment I crossed the gate, a loud cheer shook my entire body.

I reflexively furrowed my brows, but I straightened out and looked around.

“……Colosseum?”

The sight unfolding in front of you is a gigantic Colosseum that can accommodate tens of thousands of people and a huge number of seats.

Those seats were already filled with thousands of people.

‘This is….’

Looking around, I was on a large arena in the middle of the Colosseum.

But I wasn’t the only one on the pitch….

An extravagant looking elf holding an unusual bow in his right hand, as if talking to a small bird perched on the tip of his other finger.

I can’t count how many swords are attached to my whole body. A scar-covered gigantic man who suppresses a blazing fighting spirit that cannot be concealed in his eyes.

A woman with a large shield on her back, her hand on the handle of the sword at her waist, ready to leave the water at any time, subtly exuding a sense of solidity like an iron wall.

A man with a bad impression who glared at the people around him while wearing magical knuckles on his hands.

A silver-haired girl whose mana is oozing out with cold chills, enough to make the surroundings drop in temperature just by standing still. Etc.

Including myself who had just arrived, a total of 30 people were exuding their own personalities.

‘Those people….’

And many people in the audience were watching us in the center of the stadium and appraising us.

“Oh~! The students this time are really strong…”

“I see… I can tell more when I see it in person. Some of them have definitely reached superhuman levels.”

“This jockey is really great. I’m a freshman now, but have I already reached the level of a 3rd year student…?”

“Hmm! Your body is itching! You already have this level of skill at such a young age, what kind of results will come out if we process those gemstones…. I’m so excited that I can’t even pay for my age!”

“Okay! I agree, Professor Casimes! I’d love to have a kid with a rare attribute, or one with multiple attributes! I’d recommend him to my lab!”

“…Professor Markard. Will the disease that turns students into teaching assistants get better again? A third-year student who was hired as a teaching assistant the other day ran rampant to ask to be sent to the frontlines.”

“…Whoops! It was a necessary sacrifice for the development of magic.”

With strong men presumed to be professors who tingle just by looking at them and my senses send warnings.

“Namgung-hyung. Namgung-hyung, which junior do you care about the most?”

“You mean me. Little brother? I am Krysia Greenwood, the only known high elf over there who can handle a bow…”

“Oh? I knew Namgung-hyung would choose a junior who can use a sword. That, you know. They are called the return of the sword demon…

“…Ah. Jessar Saiger, who is famous for being one of the two greatest swordsmen on the continent and known as the genius of the Saiger family…? I heard that he is also amazing…. It is said that he killed hundreds of orcs head-on when he was 15 years old. “

“Ohhh! Really?”

“That’s right. The way he fought while laughing excitedly even when his whole body was covered with scars. They said it reminded him of the sword demon, the head of the first Saiger family.”

“…Surely, he’s amazing enough to be called the genius of the Saiger family! Then, how about Chrisia Greenwood-sama?”

“They say that they have 100 shooting skills, to the extent that they can’t hit anything with a bow, and that they have high elemental powers to the extent that they can use advanced wood-type magic. …How high they possessed elemental powers, even the ground The dripping sweat tasted like the sap of a maple tree.”

“…Ohhh!…Oh? …By the way. Namgung hyung…How do you know sweat tastes like sap…?”

There were also hundreds of people presumed to be seniors in Valhalla Academy uniforms.

“Are those people over there the strongest 30 among our test takers?”

“I guess so… Hey, by the way. Do you know who the beautiful young lady with blonde hair standing over there holding a large shield and sword is? I think I’m in love…”

“You idiot! It’s the iron rose of the Silvest family, one of the two greatest swordsmen on the continent! Didn’t you hear the rumor that he killed a named orc warrior with a shield from the front?!”

“……Rather, I like it. I want you to beat me to the point where I’m bloody…”

“…Uh. Didn’t you just hear something break?”

“What do you mean?”

“This is the sound of your friendship of 8 years breaking apart!!!”

“Evil?! f*ck. Why the f*ck?! I don’t have a hobby of beating a man!”

“I’m a woman. You bastard!”

“How can you claim to be a woman while having such a large pectoralis major…? …Ah! …Hey, I feel sad. I’m not between you and me… I’m not a person who discriminates against such hobbies. . We, a friend of mine.”

“……Okay! Let’s get rid of that brawl that I don’t have, and let’s become true friends!!!”

“…Uh. f*ck. Where did that dagger come from?”

And the groups who don’t wear unified clothes like the seniors, but are free-spirited.

There was also a group of presumed classmates who were entering this time.

‘… He’s a senior, he’s a classmate, and he has a very strong personality……. This is the humanity of fantasy… ?’

I collected information about the surroundings while sharpening my senses that touched the superhuman realm….

There was useful information, and I was able to get a lot of information I didn’t want to know.

‘… Huh? … This gaze?’

In a sharp sense. Somehow, I sensed a gaze filled with feelings of joy and joy.

When I turned my gaze in the direction where the gaze was detected, I saw the bright color of cherry blossoms.

“Sun~~woo~~ Mr~~!”

“…Miris?”

I saw Miris waving her arms in this direction, calling my name.

… Did Miris pass the test too?

… Great.

Swipe-

Paaah!

“””Kyaaa!!!”””

Let’s smile at Miris and wave her hand lightly.

Miris’s face brightened to the point of roaring, and she shook her arms harder.

… Somehow, though the female students in the direction I waved at screamed.

Because

I didn’t feel any negative feelings from . It won’t be a big deal….

Chrill-!

‘… Uh. This time, for some reason, I can feel the stares staring at me….’

Following the line of sight, moved the line of sight to the far right of the group of incoming students.

“…….”

I could see Nice blowing air into one cheek and making a slightly dissatisfied expression.

… Was it because she pretended to know Miris before herself?

What can I do…. Ah!

Frown-

I took out Black Cat’s business card from her pocket and showed it to her, and she winked once.

“~~”

She must have remembered her behavior right before they parted ways, and the niceness that blushed her slightly

She booed and exhaled air into her cheeks, erasing the expression of displeasure.

‘… Phew. Fortunately, did you succeed in redirecting her consciousness? … Huh? Are you saying something?’

Nice, who had pricked up her ears, looked around for a while. He put his hands to his lips and started talking.

“Kyaaa! Duka of the ‘One Fighting Demon’! The prodigy of the Pike family who pierced the head of an ogre with a single javelin!!!”

“…Gek?! That guy is the Ernst family’s ‘mad arm’ Fiat!? A mad dog who single-handedly invaded the Martinble bandits and turned them all into half-assholes!!!”

.

.

.

Noisily!

The surroundings were so noisy that I couldn’t hear a thing.

I have no choice but to use . I read the shape of Nice’s mouth using the lip reading I had learned before.

Puffy-

‘… First place… under… noodle, … ah… peel… of… all… hmm… second… this… uh… west… sun… main… I guess… All… Nyan? … Huh? Next? … Ah!’

I was confused for a moment after interpreting Nice’s words that I had read using lip reading.

When I saw Nice’s red face, I realized what it meant.

“…Ahahahaha!”

With half joy and half regret, they burst into laughter.

‘Unfortunately, I’m not going to get first place in this exam….’

Even if it could be done, it would have to be deliberately lost.

That’s why, when I’m letting go of my regrets with a smile.

“Please be quiet. Humans. From now on, I, I. I have to explain the third test.”

Diing-

With a slightly hard but richly emotional voice coming from above.

A wave of invisible magic that touched the mind spread to every corner of the vast Colosseum.

“””…….”””

Since the faintly mind-touching waves spread over a wide range, they had almost no effect.

It’s more than enough to get through the noise of the crowds and get everyone’s attention in the Colosseum.

‘This voice….’

A voice that speaks in a provocative tone.

When you look up and look at the source of the voice, with a sense of déjà vu, as if you had been through this situation recently.

‘Dark Spirit Deuce’, in the shape of a smooth black sphere about 30 cm in diameter, was floating in the air.

“Hmm. The voices of the chattering humans are gone. Quite satisfactory.”

In a situation where everyone’s attention was focused on Deuce.

Deuce was floating a smiling emoticon on the surface, as if he liked the quiet Coliseum.

Sueuk-

And Deuce took a quick look around at everyone in the Colosseum.

Like a human, he pretended to clear his throat and continued.

“…Hmmm. We can start now. I don’t want to praise the humans, but this is work, so I can’t help it. Then…”

Deuce is lively, but erases the mischievous look.

And then, as if to express that he was paying attention, Deuce, who turned the surface from which the expression came out to the freshmen and fixed it, began to speak in a calm voice.

“First of all, congratulations. You, 1,000 people. Out of a total of 626,327 applicants from all over the continent of Est, you have overcome high competitiveness and passed a difficult test. These are Yoo Jeong-ran, who have promising talents. Moving forward. We, Valhalla Academy, will be your nest, so that you can break the eggshell that you call your limits and soar freely in the sky of the world. Our faculty will do everything in their power to polish you, and….”

Deuce, who had been speaking in a calm voice, interrupted him and turned his head to look at the 30 people on the pitch.

“…And 30 of you, out of 1,000 selected geniuses. Unlisted, near-peak geniuses. I commend you for your brilliant talents and efforts to reach them, and give you

The blessing of growth. Will be granted.”

After Deuce finished speaking, Sensed something.
