The next day, while I was waiting in the amphitheater attached to the Adventurer's Guild, Hurt and the others came to take the promotion exam.

　Once again, when I looked at them closely, they all looked stronger than me.

　When you've been an adventurer for a long time, you instantly learn to judge whether or not the people you're facing are better than you.

　I'm a level 92 advanced knight, but it seemed like everyone was higher than me.


　A pretty girl with blue hair, named Luna.

　This girl seems to be the weakest of Hurt's friends, but still, if I fought her one-on-one, I wouldn't be able to beat her.

　I'm the one who's going to take their promotion examinations, so this is a joke.

　Anyway, the enemies you'll be fighting for the promotion test are slimes.
　I don't care who's in charge of testing, it's just a matter of killing them.

　I don't care who oversees the exam, the result will be the same, so it doesn't matter if it's me.

　That's what I thought.


　And then the unbelievable happened right in front of my eyes.

　Halt and the others lost to the slime.

　All of them.

　The slime knocked us all out or tied up.

　I didn't believe it.


　I couldn't believe it.

　The first thing Yoko's party attacked the slime first, and it looked like they were giving it some pretty strong attacks, but all of them didn't work on the slime.

　And after that, the slime suddenly disappeared.

　No, it moved so fast that it seemed to disappear, and it got behind Yoko and the others and held the whole party in an instant.

　In order to get a bird's eye view of the test, I moved away a little bit and watched the whole thing from a distance, so I managed to catch the slime in my field of vision when I got behind Yoko and the others.

　If it moved at that speed in front of me, I couldn't help but lose sight of it.

　A slime........could it move that fast?

　At least I've never seen a slime move that fast.


　The events continue to astonish me after this.

　In an attempt to save Yohko's party from being restrained, this time Luke's party went into battle mode.

　In front of them stood another slime that was holding Yohko and the others.

　This slime was also in bad shape.

　In any case, Luke unleashed a class of lightning magic I've never seen before, but he didn't care if he received it or not.

　Luke was screaming 'Ultima Thunder'.

　If I'm not mistaken, that's the highest level of lightning magic. I wondered how a guy who just became an adventurer could use such magic, but more importantly, the slime that withstood that magic was too crazy.

　After that, after the guy called Ryushin was beaten to a pulp by the slime, he had his friends recover from it and then turned half of his body into a dragon.

　Maybe he's a race called Dragonoid.

　I've traveled all over the world, but I've never met a dragonoid. That's how rare they are.

　By the way, I heard that Dragonoids are very strong. After all, they are S-ranked, or in other words, they are half-blooded with the most powerful demons, the dragons.

　It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

　The half-human, half-dragon, the Ryushin who had become a half-dragon, was clothed in glowing thunder, wind and light.

　It was cool.
　It looked really strong.

　Such a liushin was──.


　It was easily defeated.

　Just as he was about to charge at the slime in front of him, another slime reached out with its tentacles and tangled itself around Ryushin's leg.

　Liu Xin looked like he was in soooo much pain as he dived face first into the floor at high speed.

　But with this, the composition of one party taking on one slime was broken.

　Halt and the others who had been watching the battle also began to join in.


　And from then on, the battle was....

　I don't know what to say.
　It was horrible.

　It's a different dimension.

　It was like the demon king and the heroes were fighting.

　I've never seen a demon king or a hero, but well, that's how extraordinary the battle was unfolding right in front of me.

　I'm a test supervisor, so if a rookie is about to get into trouble, I'm obligated to help them.

　It was clearly a bad situation.


　But........it was impossible for me.

　There's no way I, who's only a B-level player, can stop a battle between a demon king and a hero!

　I don't even know why I'm okay with being here.

　I think the aftermath of the magic Harut unleashed on the slime is enough to make me disappear from this world.

　And yet, I was safe.

　The amphitheater was almost completely undestroyed except for the floor.

　I soon found out why.

　When the explosive magic unleashed by the woman called Citry was activated, I saw a huge transparent dome around the place where Hurt and the others were fighting.

　It's probably a 'magic barrier' that is activated by several senior mages, and it was put up before I knew it.

　I'm on the outside of that dome, so I was safe.

　Of course, I don't know about this.

　The mages in my guild couldn't set up a magical barrier that was so transparent that its shape could only be recognized when the smoke from the explosion covered the interior, and that could perfectly contain the aftermath of the world-ending battle that was taking place inside.

　Even the A-class adventurers, the guild's best fighters, wouldn't be able to pull off such a trick.

　Me, the amphitheater, the adventurer's guild near here, and this country of Glendale were all protected by a magical barrier that was put in place before I knew it.

　If it weren't for this...


　Maybe Glendale had been destroyed.

　The battle that made me think so was unfolding in front of me.

　I could only watch from the sidelines now.

　I prayed that Hurt and the others would win.

　The battle became more and more intense, and several large explosions occurred.

　When the smoke from the explosions cleared...



　The Harts were down.

　Yoko and Citry's party were all bound by the slime's tentacles.
