Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136 32.2 - Mid-terms

'This reminds me of the college times.'

I thought, looking at the exam paper before me. The me from Earth had been admitted to one of the best national colleges in his country.

Therefore, he had his fair share of exams, both before admission and after starting as an undergraduate.

The questions on the exam paper had a certain familiarity to them, just like the engineering courses I had taken back on Earth. It was almost like a flashback to my college days when I'd spend my time preparing for similar tests.

The first question on the page seemed like a nod to classical physics. It read, 'Calculate the maximum velocity a hunter can achieve when applying a continuous force of 500 Newtons to a mana-propelled vehicle weighing 300 kilograms with 2.7 M density. Assume negligible air resistance and conductivity c=10.'

It was a straightforward problem involving Newton's second law of motion and required applying concepts I had learned in my college days. Of course, there were some weird things that wouldn't normally make sense.

Firstly, the name of Newton. In this world, rather than being a simple physicist, he was actually a mage who rose the ranks in the mage tower in the past.

'Developers were lazy.' I thought, jotting down the formula, and started working through the math. freewebnσvel.cѳm

The first exam was [Introduction to Mana for Hunters], and this course wasn't that hard from my point of view since it was just an introduction and the formulas used weren't that hard.

I was already familiar with the concept of last week's cramming and solving the past exam questions, and because I didn't neglect my weekly reviews after the lessons, I was able to keep the knowledge in my head.

Adding my trait into the equation, these written exams were nothing but a simple maze in which I knew the path to reach the end.

Just like that, the exams continued, and in two days, everything was finished. Normally, it was something inhumane, but because the academy was growing Awakened Humans who had both supernatural body and mind, they didn't regard their mental health.

Five exams in two days was like hell for most of the students.

Day 1: [Introduction to Mana for Hunters] – [Bestiary 1]

Day 2: [Dungeon Theory] – [History of Continent 1] – [Understanding of Combat]

The schedule was in such a manner, and at the end of the day, almost all of the students were left exhausted at their desks.

Some of them were sleeping, and some of them were just trying to clear their heads.

And, of course, there were bound to be people who always talked about the exam questions after it finished.

"Hey, could you solve the second question?"

"The one with spear trajectory?"

"Yeah, that one."

"I don't know, man. I skipped the spear section, thinking they wouldn't ask about it, but they asked. How unlucky I am?"

Listening to the students talking like that, Sylvie felt a touch on her left arm.

"How were your exams?" It was Jasmine.

"It could be said fine."

"Fine?"

Sylvie looked at Jasmine, her face expressing a mixture of exhaustion and surprise. "Well, some of the questions were quite challenging, but I think I managed to solve them thanks to... some help."

Jasmine raised an eyebrow. "Help?" At first, she slightly questioned, but as her exam-fried brain worked, she understood what she was talking about. "Ah…."

After all, she was there watching when they were studying together.

"Was it really thanks to him?" Jasmine asked.

"Yes. The exact question he solved was in the exam."

"Ah, that one…."

"Don't tell me you forgot?"

"Cough….."

Seeing Jasmine lowering her gaze, Sylvie couldn't help but shake her head. Her friend was weird sometimes. She was the sole reason she asked Astron, but she didn't even listen to her.

What kind of setup was this?

"Sigh…You really need to be careful about your notes."

"Yeah, yeah."

'Stupid Jasmine.' Sylvie thought, wanting to punish this girl, but she refrained.

"Ho, girls, you are here." With Danielle's appearance, the trio gathered once again.

"Let's hang out today; I am so tired."

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

In the training rooms of the academy, I was standing, firing arrows continuously.

"My speed has improved."

As the written exams met their end, the only thing that was left was the practical exam. Of course, when the name practical exam is mentioned, what comes into one's mind would be dungeons or sparring.

This was what we have been doing so far, and that would be the case in this one as well.

'Solo dungeon raid.'

We were expected to raid a dungeon all alone. Since the academy did have specially crafted artificial dungeons, they could adjust the strength terrain of the dungeon accordingly.
