The room we reached had long desks aligned inside. It looks like the rooms you see in Universities. I also saw a University room when I went to look at the Kunou University. I must sit on the table with the number  written on at. By the way Kiba’s number is  and Akeno-san’s number is . When the three of us sat down, we heard people whispering. “…….Are those people from the Gremory team? The Holy-demonic sword wielder, Sekiryuutei and Holy-lightning priestess…….”
“The “Oppai Dragon” who defeated that Sairaorg! Sekiryuutei!”
“So the rumours about them getting a promotion recommendation from Maou-sama were true…..”
“So that’s why there were so many people with cameras outside……..”
…….This truly is making me feel embarrassed. Everyone knows about us. Well we became famous because of the news, tokusatsu show, and the match that occurred recently. Judging from their conversation, the media has gathered outside this test centre. If we say it in human terms, maybe they would be called the paparazzi? Man that is scary. But this is something I have predicted. That’s why I have to take the test calmly without making an embarrassment of myself. I made a serious face and a strong attitude! “………I think you don’t have to put that much energy and act like you usually do.”
That’s what Kiba says! But we came here while having the name Gremory on our backs! While I was doing that, other examinees gathered and the seats around us started to fill up with the other devils taking the test. ……But a room that can hold more than 100 hundred people didn’t even get filled. They are mostly devils who were former humans, but there were also devils who looked like beast-humans, youkai and creatures. Well humans aren’t the only ones who can be reincarnated. Therefore many types and kinds of devils can take the promotion test. I looked around, but including us the number didn’t even reach up to 40 people. That’s not that many people. I did hear that a promotion is rare, but I never expected it to be this low! The seats are mostly empty! …….I think I understand Sairaorg-san’s dream and aim. It might be good to give a chance to people who have talent. But in the current Underworld, that would be hard. Sensei also said that the politicians are broken into the Maou-faction and Great-King-faction. While I was thinking about this, the examiner entered the room and began collecting the reports. We gave our reports to the examiner and finally we were about to start the written test. ……Putting the practical aside, I’m not confident in the written test. But still, Rias, Ravel and the others helped me! I will definitely aim for a good result! “It’s time. Please start.”
The voice of the examiner tells us it's time to start the test! All the examinees turnover their test papers, and the test begins! Either way I will answer as many questions as I can! “Ah--. Questions like that sure are unfair! What do they mean by: "Write the names of the enemy leaders that appear in “Levi-tan”"……..”
The food court inside the centre. I was lying on the table while making a pathetic voice. The written test was broken into different sections and we finally finished after a few hours. Even if I was released from a task of using my brain, I was still sighing because of the contents of the test. I answered most of the questions about basic knowledge regarding devils. Except there was a question regarding “Magical Levi-tan” and I was astonished! There was a question where I had to write down the names of the leaders of the enemy organisations. My point is “How the fuck should I know”. Also a question about “Chichiryutei Oppai-Dragon” appeared as well! It became a question about the recent event that occurred in the Underworld. Questions about “Khaos-Brigade” appeared as well. Since I’m like a victim from them, I could answer them easily since I know about them more than most of the higher-ups. Well I didn’t include any information that cannot be known by the public though. Seriously, I don’t know whether the Underworld is proper or improper! “Ise-sama. I have brought another cup of tea.”
Ravel has brought another cup of tea for me. She seriously is a good girl. As to be expected from my manager! “Thank you Ravel. Thanks to you, my written test didn’t become a mess.”
“O-of course! I will be troubled if you don’t pass since I became your manager!”
Oh, she’s in a tsun-tsun mode. “I didn’t have that many blank answers. I have quite a lot of confidence in it.”
That’s my true response. It was certainly hard. The answers also had to be written in devil-letters. But I wasn’t scared because the questions everyone taught me appeared as well. I’m glad I studied like hell. …..Maybe what’s most important in a promotion test is receiving a recommendation. That’s why there aren’t that many people taking the test. This food court doesn't have many people in it, even though it’s huge. But still, I still I did quite well in the written test. Even if I barely failed for the written test, I think I can cover it with the practical test. “So the practical is next.”
Kiba says while twitching his upper-body. “Yeah. It’s the test category I’m really good at!”
“I heard that it will occur on the roof of this stadium.”
Ravel says it while reading through the documents. “Ara-ara. Getting heated up is good, but it is not good for you to overdo it okay?”
Akeno says that to me. …………..? Sensei also said that I shouldn’t try that hard for the practical as well. But it’s a test so I should try hard! I think this is the test where I can gain the most points. While this was occurring, the time for the practical test arrived. The three of us split up from Ravel once again, and went to the roof while wearing a jersey. The place was like a spacious gymnasium. The participants all changed into clothes that they could move around easily in, and they were warming up their bodies in their own way. Yosh! I will also warm up my body then! I start to sprint from where I was standing and begin to sprint around the running track. While I was stretching my body with Kiba and Akeno-san, the examiners gathered and began to call our numbers. We attached a badge that had our number on it to our jersey. Then one of the examiners gave us an explanation. “The practical is quite simple. We will have the participants battle each other. We will have everyone draw a number, and that will decide who you will battle.”
Oh, that’s simple and easy to understand. So I just have to win that then? “The battle will be looked as a whole so even if you lose to your opponent, you will not necessarily lose the opportunity to pass. Obviously winning the battle will allow you to get more points though. But we will look at the battle in depth so if you have the three satisfactory criteria of heart, technique, and body we will allow you to get points that will be the equivalent of what you showed. Try to have the battle be as good as possible please! The rule is simple.
