2. Special Admission – 02

Seven Heroes.

200 years ago, the word referring to the seven people who defeated the first ‘Beast of the End’, which appeared without any notice, and saved mankind.

According to legend, the Seven Heroes fought for seven days and nights with the beast of the apocalypse, which was prophesied to rise from the abyss and destroy mankind, and finally achieved victory.

And now, after 200 years, the seven heroes have become legends and are praised by everyone. To the extent that there is even a children’s book related to the seven heroes.

The Seven Heroes, who saved humanity from the brink of destruction at any cost, created Nineveh to prevent this from happening again, and to help humanity develop the strength to defeat the end even without them.

And the descendants of the Seven Heroes, who can be said to be the saviors of mankind and the founders of Nineveh, were given one privilege.

It was the privilege of being able to enter Nineveh unconditionally regardless of even if he had not taken the entrance exam.

Considering that even members of the imperial family could enter Nineveh only after passing the entrance exam, it was truly a great privilege.

‘Actually, to say it’s a privilege would be a bit ridiculous.’

The purpose of Nineveh’s founding is to foster talented people who may become the second and third seven heroes so that they can ultimately face the end with only the power of mankind.

They are obsessed with cultivating talented people by accepting not only the empire but also those who wish to study abroad, and if a descendant of the seven heroes comes to Nineveh to enter Nineveh, of course they will welcome it with open arms. I mean, it was nothing.

In other words, the right to special admission given to the descendants of the seven heroes was blindfolded and no different. How could the descendants of the Seven Heroes fail in the entrance exam in the first place?

Therefore, even though 200 years have passed since Nineveh was founded, the right to special admission has never been used.

‘But it’s a very useful right for me.’

To be precise, for Jin, the fact of being recognized as a ‘descendant of the Seven Heroes’ was more important than the right to be exempted from the entrance exam.

It’s a new fact, but Jin is officially a ‘person who doesn’t exist in the empire’. This is because he was in an unreasonable situation as a black-haired foreigner who went beyond the dimension.

As a result, he is unable to do official work with his face exposed. You couldn’t be on the run every time the security guard asked if you could show your ID.

Of course, if you invest a little money, it is not difficult to make a fake ID. Even in the first life right away, there was also a career in making an identity in that way and setting up his own home in the system.

However, simply fabricating a false ID card and entering Nineveh with that fake ID card are two different things.

As I said, Nineveh is a place that nurtures talented people with great power to face the end. It is a place where talents with outstanding talents are literally trained as human weapons.

And if you think that the Empire will not conduct a background check on a student who will be admitted to such a school, there is no other way to express it than a really naive delusion.

An ID card can be made if you give money, but the life itself that a person has lived cannot be easily faked. If you enter Nineveh with a fake ID, only a future awaits you, that you are a spy sent from a foreign country and taken away by the guards in less than a week.

However, if Jin is recognized as a ‘descendant of the Seven Heroes’ and enters Nineveh, the situation is somewhat different.

‘My non-existent past, abilities that I still have to hide, and even the issue of admission fees are all solved at once.’

It’s enough to suppress Jin’s unclear past with the halo of the name of the Chil Heroes, and it’s enough to say that the various abilities he acquired while recurring repeatedly are also abilities he acquired as a descendant of the Chil Heroes.

If you decide to enter as a special student, you will be exempted from the astronomical amount of admission and tuition fees.

Well, the whole world might be destroyed in 10 years, and you might think that money is a big deal, but at least for Jin, who has lived in a capitalist society, it was a very important issue.

However, if there is just one minor problem, it is that Jin is not a descendant of the Seven Heroes…

– Don’t worry about that. If you do what I tell you to do, you’ll be able to fool everyone.

‘But isn’t this a scam? Maybe it’s because I’m a human being who can live without the law, but I feel my conscience prick in my heart.’

– Uh-huh, this is by no means a scam. Because the Duke of Pendragon is the descendant of the Sword Saint among the Seven Heroes. You just said that the descendants of the Seven Heroes exercise the right to special admission, but haven’t you said that Jin, the descendant of the Seven Heroes, will exercise the right?

‘That’s a scam. Who in the world could have noticed that a future Erekaya Del Pendragon is in my head.’

– Isn’t that the fault of the person who interpreted what you said? And in the past, I didn’t use the right to special admission. If it is a privilege that will not be used anyway, it will be more beneficial to the world if it is used for the future of mankind in this way.

At Erekaya’s bold words, Jin quietly clicked his tongue and said nothing.

She was in a position where she was quietly caught up in Erekaya’s fraudulent activities anyway, so all she had to say was equivalent to lying down and spitting.

“Chi, descendant of the seven heroes… !”

Meanwhile, the dean of admissions trembled as he listened to Jin’s words.

He had no idea that Jin’s words were bluffing or lies.

Because the name ‘Descendants of the Seven Heroes’ was too big a name for a mere braggart to use as an impersonation purpose.

Also, from the beginning, he expected Jin to be an unusual person. The momentum of a king who looks down on everyone with an awe-inspiring attitude. And the etiquettes familiar to him as a whole implied that his origins were noble.

However, as he expected, he went beyond simply being of noble origin, and was a descendant of the Seven Heroes, who have been talked about as legends until now!

‘Then it’s understandable that she has a similar momentum to the little princess of Pendragon.’

The Duke of Pendragon belongs to one of the Seven Heroes, the Sword Saint.

If the young man in front of me received swordsmanship lessons directly from the swordsman and received various training from the Duke of Pendragon, it wouldn’t be too absurd to project a figure reminiscent of a little princess.

Perhaps he is in the middle of a scene that may later become part of a legend-

With such anticipation, the dean of admissions swallowed his saliva down his throat.

“If you really claim to be a descendant of the Seven Heroes, can you show me the proof you deserve?”

“… Do you mean proof?”

At those words, Jin’s eyebrows lifted slightly upwards.

“As far as I know, I heard that the Seven Heroes passed down their sacred instruments that symbolize themselves to their successors. If you really claim to be a descendant of the Seven Heroes and wish to use your right to special admission, please convince us by showing appropriate proof.”

“… Mmm.”

What the dean of admissions said was extremely common sense and justified, so Jin also had nothing to say.

But that doesn’t mean I couldn’t bring in his proof or whatever, as the dean of admissions wanted.

Because in the first place, the fact that Jin was a descendant of the Seven Heroes was Gura!

‘what? Didn’t you say that you might ask for proof? What are you going to do now?’

– Shut up and manage your expression. Couldn’t I have foreseen that this might happen?

‘If I had expected it, I should have spoken to people from the beginning!’

– It was literally expected, so I didn’t really think that this situation would shut up. So stop whining and do what I tell you to do.

At Erekaya’s words, Jin had to endure with superhuman patience the fact that his face was crumpled like a piece of toilet paper.

‘Damn it. It’s not something you have to deal with anyway, right?’

What is the difference between Erekaya’s behavior and the motherfuckers who run away after clogging the toilet in a public bathroom, saying that they have done their business, so it’s none of their business?

Jin struggled to hold back his rising anger and barely opened his mouth.

“… Unfortunately, I currently do not have a certificate. No, it’s true that I couldn’t get a certificate from Master. This is because Master had only one Shinki, but there are two successors of the time.”

“Well, I guess so.”

Come to think of it, the dean of admissions also seemed to have heard at first glance that the little princess of Pendragon had inherited the sacred weapon from the previous duke.

If it was true that the little princess of Pendragon had inherited the sacred sword of the sword castle, then it was only natural that the young man in front of him did not have the sacred sword.

“Then how are you going to prove your identity? I’m sorry, but the issue related to special admission is not a problem that can be handled on my own, and even if it can be handled, evidence convincing the superiors is absolutely necessary.”

“Are you sure?”

“Of course, personally, I have no doubts that you are the descendant of the Seven Heroes, but there are people who value the physical evidence that can be seen.”

Jin opened his mouth to the head of the admissions office who shook his head and said that.

“As I said before, I do not have physical evidence that I can see with my eyes. but-“

If there is no physical evidence that it is a chicken instead of a pheasant, isn’t it enough to show the appropriate evidence?

“How about presenting the teachings I received from Master as evidence? As far as I know, among the people who belong to Nineveh, there are quite a few people who have had a relationship with the Seven Heroes. With their discerning eyes, wouldn’t they easily be able to tell if I was really being taught by the Seven Heroes themselves?”

Yes. From the beginning, Jin had no physical evidence to prove that he was a descendant of the Seven Heroes. But instead, doesn’t Erekaya, who has been taught as the true descendant of the Seven Heroes, exist in his head?

Of course, Jin doesn’t know the swordsmanship of the Sword Master, but if he moves his body as Erekaya tells him to, he will be able to imitate swordsmanship.

‘In addition, it is most likely that Erekaya del Pendragon himself will be called for verification in this case.’

The swordsman himself, whom Jin will claim to be his teacher, has been in a state of unknown whereabouts for about 50 years. However, no one thinks that the owner of that kind of power died of old age without being able to overcome the passing of time.

In other words, even if Erekaya himself came, he would not be able to tell whether Jin was being taught by the Sword Saint who was still alive somewhere, or whether he was playing Gura. Even more so if Jin reproduces the swordsmanship of the swordsman, even at a cursory glance.

And in the process, he would get acquainted with the current Erekaya, and if he was lucky, he would be able to become acquainted, so it was a plan to kill two birds with one stone.

‘Damn it, I barely caught my breath.’

– Hmm, indeed. That’s why there is a saying that even if it’s a person who designs things, what happens depends on the sky. One minor factor that I didn’t think of almost ruined the whole plan.

‘… If you had just told me the details of your plan beforehand, this wouldn’t have happened?’

Just as Jin and Erekaya were bickering inside, a voice mixed with admiration suddenly cut in from right next to him.

“Oh, after hearing about it, it sounds like a pretty plausible verification method. Well, since the strength of the Seven Heroes is so unique, you can easily verify whether or not you are a descendant of them just by wielding that power.”

And the moment he heard that voice, Jin’s body stiffened.

Why the hell is that woman here? Didn’t you have any thoughts of meeting that woman already?

“Ah, come to think of it, did I say that I was looking for someone familiar with the Seven Heroes? Then you are very lucky. Because you don’t have to go far and there’s just one person you want right here.”

Seeing the smiling face of the woman who said that, the Director of Admissions let out a puzzled voice.

“Hey, Chairman?”

Yes. Her true identity is none other than the head of Nineveh, who is in charge of everything.

And he was also one of the strongest people in the modern world, and as a bonus-

“Well, I don’t think there will be any problems. Because in my opinion you are a very ‘honest’ person.”

He was also a holder of the supernatural ability to see through the ‘lies’ of others.
