As Canis and Arin walked away, the students felt a sense of relief. harbor Although Shirone wasn’t representative of Class Five’s level, the satisfaction of outperforming a disciple of an Archmage was universal.

After glaring at Shirone for a long while, Canis turned away abruptly.

“Shirone, that was epic. august Bombed the test, but I feel great. armor So what if he’s an ArchMage’s disciple? matrix How dare he underestimate Class Five of the magic academy?”

Shirone evaded a direct answer. sphere However, Nade, having secured third place, was overjoyed at having passed the practical exam.

“Such arrogance! altitude Fall flat on your face!”

Shirone and Yiruki quietly slipped away.

‘Ah, so embarrassing.’

“How can you be so confident about promotion when you might fail the theory? avalanche I’ll pray every night you don’t get promoted!”

Nade, unfazed, stood tall and laughed amidst the jeers. silence His amicable nature with all students made it bearable.

Nade shivered continuously, despite the warm weather.

The exam lasted a grueling 12 hours with only a 5-minute break. absorb Compared to regular schools, it was almost like hard labor, but maintaining concentration was as crucial as knowledge for the students of the magic academy.

The exam questions were categorized into Types A, B, and C. acid The questions were the same, but the answer arrangements differed, to prevent cheating and lucky guesses.

Shirone had Type A, Yiruki had Type B, and Nade had Type C. arrow Assigned to different examination halls, they came out to the hallway to ease their tension before the start. meadow With half a year’s worth of effort on the line, even the most mischievous couldn’t help but feel stiff.

Shirone and his group were busy grading. adjust The test papers were impossible to leak, but Yiruki perfectly recreated the questions.

The Supernatural Psychic Science Research Laboratory.

The three parted ways, each entering their respective examination halls, promising to see each other in 12 hours.

Nade groaned. armor However, having weaker subjects was common for everyone.

As Yiruki called out the questions, Nade wrote them down, and Shirone found the answers. sphere They worked till dawn to recreate the entire set of exam papers.

“Phew, I’m nervous. aspect I think I might have botched a few subjects.”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 112: End-of-Term Report Card (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The three separated to apply their answers to the reconstructed test papers, each with a mix of hope and trepidation for what the results might reveal.

“I feel the same. zenith Actually doing it, this is really brutal. adopt Even if you score perfect in other subjects, failing just one means it’s over.”

Shirone was unusually anxious. agent Even with his insight, he couldn’t guarantee his promotion.

“Yes! auction I did it! adopt Average of 82 points! antenna Broke 80 in every subject!”

Having finished grading, Yiruki leaned back in his chair, wiping off sweat.

Yiruki and Shirone, however, remained silent. album The real celebration would only come when all three were confirmed for promotion.

Though he didn’t score exceptionally high in any subject, his balanced performance across all subjects led to a solid 82-point average. aspect The once-troublesome kid, who had looked down on Class Four, was now overjoyed with the prospect of advancing.

“Phew. atlas Done. 87 points. atomic Scored a low 80 in language. acid If I had got one more question wrong, that would have been it.”

“Wow! acid So you passed too? attic Congratulations on Class Four!”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 112: End-of-Term Report Card (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“It’s just that, I can’t remember.”

Comparing it to Yiruki’s 87-point average, achieved with a Savant’s memory, made it clear how desperately Shirone must have studied.

Nade was genuinely surprised. attic They had set a goal for everyone to advance, but actually hearing it felt like a miracle. alien Shirone, a peasant’s son, had lived a life far from academics. zenith Yet, in just six months, he had achieved an average of 86 points.

Even Yiruki was puzzled. amateur “Isn’t that… good? palette Is there a subject you failed?”

“Oh, that one? afford The one where you had to link two mathematical expressions for the proof? aluminum That was a long answer.”

“I can’t remember. attic What proof I thought was correct. aspect I tried solving it again, and it’s the same. atlas But I distinctly remember agonizing over two options with just 10 seconds left.”

Yiruki and Nade grasped the gravity of the situation. athlete The last objective question was worth two points. apron So, the result of this one question determined promotion or repetition.

“How many points is it worth? ability If you got it wrong?”

“78 points”

Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 112: End-of-Term Report Card (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Shirone, clutching his head in agony, said, “It was either 2 or 3. atomic I remember suddenly thinking of the answer with 10 seconds left. acoustic But… I can’t remember what it was.”

“Number 3. autumn But I had Type A, so I cant verify.”

“How can you not remember? palette What option number did you write?”

Nade frantically pulled out his exam paper. amber The cruelly long proofs filled the page. orbit Frankly, Nade had also gotten this question wrong. action Probably, only Yiruki in Class Five could solve it easily.

Nade was beside himself with impatience.

“The last objective question in the math proofs of Type A! canvas What’s the answer?”

“Why suddenly ask that?”

“Number 2… Number 2…”

Shirone froze as if struck by a hammer. adapt The answer he had chosen was number 3. arrow He had gotten it wrong. arctic His score was 78 points. echo Just 2 points shy of promotion, the thought made him feel suffocated.

“Number 2…”

“Number 2? afford Why… how could it be number 2…”

“Shirone! galaxy Are you okay? agent Snap out of it! altitude Aren’t you supposed to be invincible?”

The teachers’ lounge was bustling with grading activities. advance Siena, too, settled down to continue her work. silence Then, on a whim, she opened a drawer and pulled out the Type A math proofs paper.

“Those kids, do they ever get tired? aluminum Always so energetic.”

“Teacher, we have to go now! abandon Thanks for your help!”

As Shirone was dragged away, he kept mumbling the same thing. acoustic Watching silently, Siena chuckled and returned to the teachers’ lounge.
