CROSS OVER (TENSURA x SEKAI SAIKO NO ANSATSUSHA, ISEKAI KIZOKU NI TENSEI SURU)

Chapter IV

Next, the physical test began. Proctors tested us on various measurements,
including physical strength, leaping ability, stamina, reaction time, and more.

At first glance, this portion appeared to be a simple competition of
physical strength, but it was more than that in actuality. To a mage, the
technique of increasing your body’s physical capabilities was essential.
Instead of using mana to enhance every part of your body, it was better to focus on portions that were connected to movement.

Not many people were capable of focusing their mana only on specific
body parts, though. As far as I could tell, the only participants who could
were me, Ciel, Tarte, Lugh, Naoise, and another noble.

I could tell just by watching dia she's still learning but the hero, however, as if in mockery of that advanced skill, displayed overwhelming ability and placed first in every category despite his clumsy talent with mana.
I feel like I can just beat with 30℅ of my power. It felt wrong to compare him to someone who has already became a god.

<A/N if you haven't read The tensura light Novel yet then yes he became a godly being>

Those who’d lost interest in the hero after his pitiful score on the written
test immediately returned to praise him.

What caught my eye was how suffocated the hero seemed by all the
attention. It looked like he didn’t handle personal interaction very well…
That hardly created any problems for me, though. For people who had an
expert grasp of human nature, that kind of personality was easier to deal with.

Before long, the final part of our exam began. This last bit tested our combat
skills. Knights in active service from the Royal Alvanian Order served as the students’ opponents. Their weapons were blunted, and there were doctors at the ready.

The majority of students weren’t expected to have any chance of defeating
a knight. More than victory, proctors were observing what sorts of actions
students took during the sparring matches.
The arena at the Royal Academy was huge, with six rings set up within it.
Tarte had to leave for the waiting room because her match was one of thebfirst.

This left Dia, me , rimuru and Ciel to watch from the stands.
A few matches had already ended.
“It looks like there are a lot of impressive people here,” Dia observed.

“Yeah. I’m glad at this chance to see the strength of our classmates so
soon,” I answered.

House Tuatha Dé wasn’t the only family that valued combat education.
Other clans were known for producing knights. They staked their statuses on
military prowess and trained their offspring in the ways of war from an early age.

There were even some students who matched the active knights in skill.

“Lugh, do you think Tarte will be okay?” Dia asked.

“She’ll be fine. You know how strong she is. Actually, now that I think
about it, you guys haven’t seen Tarte in a real fight yet, have you?”

“Hmm, I guess not. So she’s that strong, huh? I need to watch closely.”

Yeah we're curious our selves. Replied rimuru

Tarte used a spear and surpassed the strength of most active knights. I had
trained her as a Tuatha Dé and instilled in her knowledge and techniques from my previous life.

Tarte entered the ring. She was already holding the spear that she usually concealed beneath her skirt.

She faced her sparring partner, but before the match began, the knight
suddenly bowed. The action caused a stir to run through those in the stands.
