"We have no evidence for you cheating at all, but even if we determine that you didn't, we'll just put you into a class way below your results. However since I'm feeling generous, here, have some extra hoops to jump through (being entirely at the mercy of your classmates with every single one having the power to screw you over, no reason even needed) and we might treat you with the fairness you deserve."
God, this is the shit I absolutely despise. :rolleyes:

They make the salami thing sound like a huge screwup, but isn't it exactly right?

i'd join the enemy side if i were him though
Yeah. I said this reading the novel too. There is zero reason to keep up the pretenses, and MC could easily threaten to take E class or just leave. The only thing this ultimatum does is highlight the academy's inability to adapt and their willingness to just abandon their standards at first convenience and hand it to students. Students who haven't even started studying yet and have no indication of following the academy's principles.

It’s the theoretical section, if you’re so unconvinced, run an oral exam ask intelligent follow up questions. Cheaters and pretenders can’t deal with in depth probing.
And if your baseless accusations ended up groundless the minimal thing that needs to be done is to apologize. Even kids know that.

Also, incredible improvement on a school exam is something to lauded because an exam should be able to be aced through effort by design (there is also a factor chance as to which question/topic show up).
If it’s a sports competition, then maybe you can be suspicious of sudden improvements.

Such incompetence.

I'm looking forward to Momma Bear burning this entire shithouse down, since she was aware of the allegations, as the school ANNOUNCED THEM PUBLICLY TOGETHER WITH THE RESULTS FOR EVERYONE (who knows what the symbol means) TO SEE.

That makes how much on the incompetence counter?

My thoughts exactly.

Even worse when he follows it with "in this time, we can't afford to lose talents like yours, so we're definitely going to squander your talent."

Are you fucking kidding me.
Why do authors like writing stupid piece of shit text which frustrates readers.
Prove your worth and then threaten them that he'll leave just like his sister did.
You want to live freely but you keep going with what others want. God, none of these "I want to live freely" mangas ever have an MC who does what he wants.

Not only that, that so-called teacher was making those up for him on the fly 'because he was having fun'.

Like bro, I've put up with customers who spout that shit in my face thinking they were funny, and if I didn't have to worry about the consequences, I'd punch them in the pace and yell, 'shut up and let me do my fucking job'.

Yeah the teachers in the novel are pretty much just guides. Outside of giving basic guidance, they just fuck around in the novel. At least the MC is the chaotic one in this relationship later on into the novel.

I can see the scene...
"You know what, you're right. Let me prove my worth... There, done. All A-class students signed. Now, pardon me as I'm going to sign up with our northern neighbor. Maybe they will be more appreciative of real talent." /* walks out like a boss */

nb: to be fair, that would likely get him arrested on the spot for treason or something. But given the incompetence of these teachers, I think they might be stunned long enough that the MC could manage a timely escape.

Now I understand why I was cringing hard at this dialogue and logic of a person who supposed to be a wise war hero

Probably would be better just to dance like a monkey for now while seriously planning to defect later. Hell maybe act like a butt hurt noble just to get kicked out easier to make it seem justified. Might make his defection easier now that he has a motive to show up at the Northern kingdoms. A talent that been falsely accused of cheating showing up at our border. Well come right in we will treat you right.
Not to mention, I would also take our world's knowledge and "invent" tech for the North at the cost of his former kingdom.

Also, isn't the dude a noble? Doing this stuff with commoners is one thing but screwing with nobles is another. His mom won't tolerate this and has the backing not to take the academies BS. Nobles have revolted for less especially for muh honour.

they suspect him of cheating without proof, but they won't let him go, and need him to "probe his innocence" because they need him for a future war...

yeah, what did you say was the advantage of studying in your shitty school?


and that psycho bitch is going to fuck up something...

Does this story continue to do this or is this going to be highlighted as an issue in the future?
If not I'm just gonna drop it here.

This manga is fun, but let's see what will happen next chapter B4 I decide whether to drop or cop. Thanks for the chapter, TL-san!
