Acquired the EX-class attribute ‘Transcendence Copy’

8 – Weird Guy

I could feel the presence.

It’s not like the people passing by. It is a popular gesture as if he is watching him from afar. He seemed to be eavesdropping on a conversation between himself and Arsha.

I didn’t have a particularly secret conversation with Arsha, but it’s a different matter if others overhear.

Sarah said that, moving her eyes in the direction where she felt the presence of people in a voice full of caution.

“Hey, who is it?”

Then, a man came out with leisurely steps. Sarah’s gaze naturally turned to the man’s face.

“!”

To sum up his first impression, it is an exclamation mark.

The man who appeared before Sarah’s eyes was, without adding a lie, the most handsome man she had ever seen in her life.

Sara, who was born into a prestigious family called the Leoris family, naturally debuted in the social world at an early age.

What do men brag about in the social world?

It’s proud of money, proud of family, proud of face.

Only the men who pride themselves on their good looks have seen too many of them to be included in a cart, and among them, there were actually men whose pride was clear.

However, compared to the man in front of them, even such people were nothing more than blood on new feet and fireflies in front of a full moon.

Brilliant blonde hair that looks like it has been dyed with melted gold, bright crimson eyes that make you doubt whether it was crafted and studded with rubies, and a noble appearance that looks like it was sculpted and shaped by a once-in-a-century craftsman with countless painstaking efforts.

His face seemed to connote all the formative beauty of human history. Sarah realized for the first time in her life what the word halo-lit face meant.

‘I’m distracted by your face.’

Sarah was startled.

Originally, she was not the kind of person who obsessed over her appearance as her appearance.

If you study the science of magic, you realize that everything in the world comes down to the essence.

Appearance is, after all, the outer shell that makes up a human being.

It cannot determine the essence of a human being.

That’s why Sarah didn’t put much value on a person’s appearance. Of course, this is the first time I’ve been distracted by a man’s face. That much, the opponent’s appearance was amazing.

“Hello. My name is John Baker. I am a commoner.”

The other party speaks loudly.

Name, John Baker.

Status, Commoner.

After hearing that he was a commoner, Sarah finally saw John’s outfit.

Certainly, it is quite a rough and rough garment to be said to be worn by members of an aristocratic family. If it hadn’t been for the shiny appearance, I would have been able to recognize his identity at a glance.

On the other hand, his face was so noble that you wouldn’t dare think of him as a commoner.

“Hmmm! Hello. I’m Sarah Leoris. First of all, I am a noble.”

I don’t think it was necessary to attach a nobleman.

There must be no one who doesn’t know the surname Leoris.

However, the response from her counterpart was not what she expected.

“This is Sarah Leoris. Nice to meet you.”

This is a very, very standard response.

If you ask if it conforms 100% to the etiquette of the nobility, it’s not, but it’s unreasonable to ask commoners for the etiquette of the aristocrats by endlessly attaching lengthy rhetoric.

Considering his status as a commoner, the opponent’s reaction was normal and standard.

If she wasn’t from the Leoris family.

Usually, this is the reaction Sarah gets when she introduces herself.

-Eh!? You mean the famous magical head family Leoris!? It’s an honor to meet you!

This was mainly a response from wizards.

-It is an honor to meet the lady of the Leoris family, famous for her strength and nobility. I am, after all, a member of the family.

This was mainly the response I heard from people other than magicians. In the case of commoners, the introduction of the family after that was excluded, but the texture of the reaction was almost the same anyway.

However, the reaction of the other party was quite different from that general reaction. Hearing the surname Leoris is not at all surprising.

If so, it could be one of two things.

The Leoris family has unsurprisingly great power, or they don’t even know the existence of the Leoris family.

The former is impossible. The latter is infinitely close to impossible, but it is not something that can be asserted that it does not exist.

‘You may not know. How can a commoner who struggles to live day by day know everything about aristocratic families?’

Sarah Leoris thought so and convinced.

In the first place, it is a vulgar act to buy the admiration of others with the reputation of the family. She taught herself like that.

Of course, apart from the admonishment, the uncomfortable feeling in my heart didn’t go away.

“Mr. Leoris. Presumptuously, I overheard the conversation that Lady Leoris was having with another lady.”

The blond man, Johann Baker, was the first to open his mouth.

What is this man trying to say?

“It seemed like they were fighting for the top spot, but is what I heard right?”

To John’s question, Sarah nodded and answered.

“It was Arsha’s own way. Well, it is true that she is aiming for the chief.”

At Sarah’s answer, the man smiled and continued.

“Ah. Okay. Actually, I’m also aiming for the top spot. I was concerned and asked the question.”

Aiming for the chief?

This man?

Sarah opened her eyes wide and took another look at the man.

Looking at it again, it’s a handsome face. He never gets tired no matter how many times he sees it. It’s still new to look at.

But that was all.

‘I don’t feel any special momentum. If you look at the body, there is no sign of intense training.’

A man’s ability was, in one word, ordinary. If it was said that she was completely incompetent, it didn’t seem like that again, but if someone asked if she was worthy of aiming for the academy head, Sarah would shake her head at once.

Anyone other than Sarah would. Because this man didn’t have the unique force felt by a strong man at all.

“Shouldn’t a man have big ambitions?”

After John’s continued words, Sarah could understand why he spoke so confidently.

Aspirations.

From noble mtl dot com

It is literally a grand dream.

Anyone can do anything with aspirations. Whether or not it is realistic is a different story.

If it was enough to challenge the academy as a commoner, it was clear that he was a human with aspirations different from those of ordinary people. Aiming for the top spot at the academy would be an extension of that aspiration.

“It won’t be easy.”

“It’s not easy, so I’m taking on the challenge. If it was easy, I wouldn’t have tried it.”

The man replied in a confident voice. There seemed to be a strangely strong conviction in his voice.

Beep-!

The cry of a pterosaur came from the sky. In the cloudless sky, a small dot is growing bigger and bigger. It was a mini wyvern gliding to the ground.

The moment she saw the Mini Wyvern, Sara had a whim.

A while ago, I wasn’t surprised at all when I heard the name of this man, the Leoris family.

It is obviously because he has no knowledge of the Leoris family.

In that case, you just have to tell the man about the greatness of the Leoris family.

It is a family member’s responsibility to raise the family’s honor. Sarah’s goal of becoming the head of the academy is also because that reason worked strongly.

I got rid of that monster in an instant, and said to the man in front of me, ‘This is the Leoris family!? You hear exclamations like, ‘That’s amazing!’.

Not for myself. For the family

Sarah nodded her head, convincing herself.

“If you want to become the head of the academy…. You will have to do this.”

Sarah said that and cast her gaze at the mini wyvern that was slashing like an arrow at her.

That was all.

She didn’t cast a spell, didn’t reach out, didn’t even snap her fingers.

She just stared. She said that was enough for her.

Wheein-!

An arrow flies toward the mini wyvern, which was descending in a gentle curve toward Sara.

It’s not just an arrow. It was a divine arrow whose entire body was made of light.

An arrow of light was shot toward the Mini Wyvern rushing to the ground, sprinkling brilliant brilliance like a shooting star from its arrow feathers.

Shish!

The arrow went right through the Mini Wyvern’s head.

The Mini Wyvern, which had been penetrated at her most critical point, began to fall instead of glide. Her bastard body thumped to the ground.

A close-to-perfect no-chant magic.

She performed the best technique several times more difficult than normal magic, as naturally as breathing.

Even a desperate wizard would clap her hands in amazement to the point that her eyeballs would pop out saying, ‘This is such a skill at this age!’ I didn’t doubt it.

However, John again betrayed Sarah’s expectations.

“This is a medal. There’s a strange notch on the medallion. If you get this, you’ll pass, right?”

John’s interest was not in Sarah’s magic, but in the medallion left behind by the Wyvern.

“That’s right!”

Sarah unknowingly let out a voice of resentment. It was a conditioned reflex response.

“Here is the medallion. Leoris-sama has already got one, so I’ll have to do my best too.”

John was not at all surprised.

Are your nerves as thick as a tortoise’s shell, or are you just a new type psychopath who lacks the emotion of surprise?

Sarah couldn’t figure out the personality of this commoner named John.

At this point, something went wrong.

‘For you…. I need to hear that you are as amazing as I am.’

It’s not because of his own satisfaction.

It’s because of the family’s honor.

Knowing that the reputation of the Leoris family is still low, how could she, as her eldest daughter, not step forward?

Sarah Leoris made a promise, clenching his fists. Before the exam was over, he vowed to elicit an exclamation from this man’s mouth.

John, who smiles meaningfully at himself, thinks inwardly, “As planned….’ What she thought, she had no way to know.
