I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy

Chapter 73-2

In the end, as Ben watched the scene where Baek Yu-Seol lowered his stance to kneel down...

*Hmm*

Suddenly, numerous thoughts raced through Ben's mind like lightning.

Absurdity.

The hierarchy within the world of magic was important, and there were certain implicit allowances even within Stella. However, there were limits that should not have been crossed.

For example, direct physical punishment inflicted by one student upon another was strictly prohibited. Not only physical blows or kicks but also any act of intentionally causing harm was forbidden.

Nevertheless, such acts of intentional harm were prevalent because the students who were targeted had very weak voices to speak out against it.

But... What about Baek Yu-Seol?

Would his voice be weak as well?

He was a student of the Class S with a record of exterminating a necromancer in his first year. Moreover, he faced dark mages without flinching and had the determination to carry out his plans.

Furthermore, he never yielded to nobles in his speech, treated everyone equally regardless of their status, and even confronted professors with his own will.

Why didn't Baek Yu-Seol fear the seniors at all?

But why, upon hearing the command to kneel down, did he purely attempt to kneel down without resistance?

The answer was simple.

Perhaps, as a result of this momentary humiliation, he was aiming for a greater revenge. It would likely become an act that shook the absurdity of the academy to its core.

Ah...

Ben hurriedly surveyed the group of second-year students surrounding Baek Yu-Seol.

Some were wicked, but some were commoner students who had no choice but to take charge of educating the first-year student under the command of the third-year students.

They were what was known as "permanent Edmon followers."

They were born into the Adolveit Kingdom but had no notable status, so they had no choice but to listen to Edmon's words by force.

The other second-year students could ignore Edmon Atalek's words, but they wouldnt.

Among them, those who were not Addmin's followers but harassed the Baek Yu-Seol (a concept) would face disciplinary action, undoubtedly.

It must be stopped.

Baek Yu-Seol's idea of shaking Stella's absurd system itself was certainly correct, but the target of sacrifice must be changed.

"Wait!"

Therefore, Ben unintentionally blocked them.

-

*I just thought of getting down on one knee.*

*Honestly, I'm not a noble, and I don't have any power, so it's a real struggle for me to try to break the injustice that everyone else is doing.*

*If it were modern times, it might be different, but in today's world where there is no news channel, changing injustice with a heartfelt letter isnt worth a try.*

*Anyway, if things go according to my plan, this injustice coming to me will end soon, so I thought I would quietly endure it until then.*

"... What are you doing right now?"

Baek Yu-Seol thought he was dreaming.

Ben appeared.

Baek Yu-Seol didn't know much about him, but thanks to his partner "Denmark," he at least recognized his name.

Denmark was one of his favorite characters in the game, after all.

"What, what's going on?"

Since the seniors who were trying to provoke him were from around Class C to Class D, they hesitated slightly when Ben from Class S stood up against them.

"What are you doing right now?"

"Can't you see? I'm educating the underclassmen. Even if you're from Class S, you can't interfere."

"So you're trying to order me around?"

"Well, I'm going to continue educating until you understand. Don't meddle."

"No, that won't work."

"... What did you say?"

Some of the seniors who had their faces turn red approached him.

"Hey, don't interfere and get lost. Do you think being in Class S gives you any authority? This brat dared to stand up against a third-year senior. Do you think this is appropriate for a mage? As seniors of Stella, we have an obligation to educate our underclassmen!"

However, some other seniors silently watched him without getting angry. Their expressions even seemed thankful for his intervention. While some were feeling uneasy.

"Hmm. Come to think of it, those guys are pitiful too."

The seniors who stopped provoking Baek Yu-Seol when the interference occurred remained silent and didn't provoke him further.

They must be the type that inevitably engage in injustice.

If not, even worse injustice would come from above.

However, those who confidently confronted Ben were nothing more than unusable trash. He had seen them in the original game as well. They specifically targeted commoner students from Class S in the first year, harassing them.

Since they couldnt touch the equivalent students who made it to Class S, they chose to torment the average commoner underclassmen.

Ben was well aware of this fact, so he didn't hide his disgust.

*But why did he suddenly interfere? We had fought together before, but it doesnt mean we became close.*

He stared at Baek Yu-Seol intently, and his gaze became increasingly sharp, as if he was deep in thought.

Then he spoke. "Well, how about this then?"

"What?"

"If, as you said, he dared to stand up against third-year seniors, it's not a typical matter. If we were in a magical warrior unit, it could lead directly to a serious matter that requires immediate disciplinary action."

*What's this? Wasn't he supposed to be on my side? Why is he suddenly talking about my wrongdoing as if it's worse?*

"Yes, that's right."

"So, this is not a problem that can be overlooked as a simple provocation. That's why..."

Ben alternated her gaze between Baek Yu-Seol and the wicked second-year seniors, and slowly parted his lips.

"... How about conducting a 'Special Training for Underclassmen'?"

Upon hearing that, the expressions of the seniors stiffened.

They grinned, showing their teeth.

He also knew what that meant.

No matter how much a junior was at fault, officially, verbal abuse and violence were not permitted.

However, very occasionally, there was an event where seniors could officially administer a sharp 'punishment' to juniors who had committed serious wrongdoings, and that was the Special Training for Underclassmen.

The rules were simple.

The senior who wanted to educate and the junior who had to receive education would engage in a 'duel.'

Generally, duels between seniors and juniors were strictly prohibited, so this policy was implemented to make it legally acceptable.

However, although it seemed simple, in reality, it amounted to seniors unilaterally using magic to beat up the juniors.

The first-year students had just started learning practical magic, while the second-year students had already completed the practical training and combat exercises, and were in a state of being deployed for actual missions.

Therefore, there was no way for the juniors to stand a chance, even if their opponent was a first-year student from Class S.

However, in order to prevent misuse, the approval of the student council president was necessary for the Special Training.

This student council president, in particular, had a very strict personality and did not easily grant permission for such things.

However, regardless of grade level, students from Class S could strongly appeal their opinions to the student council.

This was another powerful privilege held by Class S.

Moreover, it was known that Ben was close to the student council president, so if he spoke up, it would be easier to obtain permission.

"I will obtain permission for the Training, so if you're going to do it, do it properly."

Ben allowed for the 'indirect provocation' that could be carried out at Stella, and the corners of the mouths of the second-year seniors who didn't like Baek Yu-Seol skyrocketed as if reaching the sky.

"Great. It'll be fun.",
