Subscriber of the Gods
Chapter 223 - Results Announcement

“A schedule change?”

“That’s too bad.”

The Sword Saint announced that he would conclude this conference by ending with the third day’s exam, changing the originally planned schedule.

When they heard the workshop was ending, the teachers couldn’t hide their disappointment.

After Regia’s class, the teachers’ desire to learn more had increased considerably.

But it couldn’t be helped.

It was already impressive that they could successfully conclude the conference despite the unexpected incident.

The third day was for taking exams based on the classes from the first and second days.

“You will take exams based on the classes you each signed up for! The exam topics will be different for each instructor. Now then, let’s begin the day of exams!”

The branch family’s head shouted loudly.

“What’s this…?”

 

“Is this for real?”

The teachers gathering for the exams began to stir.

Since they took different classes, they didn’t know which teacher had taken which class.

But as they shared information based on the second day’s classes, they could figure out which teacher had taken which class, and as they gathered information, a shocking fact was discovered.

“Teacher Ethan Whiskers… took all the classes?”

“That’s impossible! How could he take so many classes? He has to take all those exams too!”

The Ivecar Academy side was equally shocked.

“What, Teacher Ethan! Did you sign up for all the classes in this conference?”

Ethan nodded at Iris’s words.

Har’s mouth was hanging open.

Though Har usually had a calm and emotionless impression, next to Ethan, she had become an expert at reactions.

 

“I thought something was strange. Teacher Ethan was in the spirit class too.”

Nadia had signed up for and attended Diaker’s class. Among the Ivecar teachers, Har was there too.

But they never imagined that Ethan had signed up for and attended all the classes.

“Then Teacher Ethan has to take exams for all the classes?”

“Yes.”

Ethan calmly nodded.

Starting with Eucalis’s class on the first day and adding the five classes he took on the second day, he had to take a total of six exams.

“Since I came to the conference anyway, I thought I should attend everything regardless of grades. That way, I can teach the students more.”

“…”

The Ivecar teachers couldn’t help but gape.

What a mindset that cared so much for the students.

 

“Of course, I was confident too. Just six exams.”

Ethan said with a smile.

“And we need to show this much of a gap to prove that Ivecar is the best, don’t we?”

***

“They subscribed to Artemis…? The [Only subscribed to the right gods] subscriber?”

Athena happened to discover Ethan’s subscription review on Artemis’s channel.

“That’s impossible. I’ve put so much effort into that subscriber until now. But why Artemis…!”

It was an unbelievable result.

“I should tell Lord Ares right away…”

Athena, who was about to go find Ares, suddenly stopped in her tracks.

“If I do this, it’ll look like I’m obsessed with that subscriber.”

 

Of course, she was actually obsessed.

But a god’s pride was such a lofty thing that they often ended up caring about even the tiniest details that didn’t really matter.

“Naturally.”

She had no choice but to make Ares notice naturally.

“Lord Ares.”

“What is it?”

Clap-!

Ares clapped his hands. Or more precisely, it looked like he was pressing his palms together.

“Nine thousand eight hundred twenty-three.”

“Nine thousand eight hundred twenty-three?”

“That’s the number of times I’ve pressed my palms together. It’s increased by one. Nine thousand eight hundred twenty-four.”

 

“What?”

“I’m pressing my palms together ten thousand times a day. When I talked with the gods of heaven and earth, they said if you press your palms together ten thousand times a day, your wish comes true. At first, it took about 5 hours to do ten thousand times, but now I can finish in 3 hours.”

Ares pressed his palms together very naturally even while speaking.

“What wish are you making?”

“Isn’t it obvious? To be chosen by the [Only subscribed to the right gods] subscriber. I haven’t given up on that thread yet. Look at my channel. It’s much better than before. I’ve uploaded more videos too.”

Seeing Ares speak with a grin, Athena felt guilty for a moment.

“Actually…”

But she felt she had to tell him.

“They subscribed to Artemis.”

“Who did?”

“The [Only subscribed to the right gods] subscriber.”

 

“…”

For a moment, Ares’s body creaked to a stop.

Then an incredible aura burst forth.

“It wasn’t enough. Ten thousand times a day wasn’t enough. I’ll go for twenty thousand times a day. I’ll fulfill my wish with twenty thousand palm presses a day!”

Bang-! Bang-! Bang-!

Every time he clapped, a thunderous sound erupted. It was too fast for the eye to follow.

“But… Athena, you were pretending not to be interested in that subscriber, so how did you know? Even I didn’t know about this.”

“…I didn’t set up any notifications! Well, goodbye!”

***

Eucalis heard an unbelievable story from the other instructors.

The story that Ethan Whiskers had attended all the classes in this conference.

 

When he first heard it, he thought it was a joke.

But as the instructors came forward one by one to talk about how Ethan Whiskers had performed in their classes, he realized it was true.

Eucalis wasn’t the only one surprised.

The other instructors had also thought they were joking with each other, but by the time the stories about Ethan Whiskers ended, all their expressions had hardened.

‘Can he get good grades?’

The exams are determined by the instructor’s style. Some exams were practical, while others were written.

Moreover, the difficulty level was not low.

The instructors had agreed on the exam difficulty level through a pre-meeting.

They planned to set the exams so that teachers who didn’t understand the classes couldn’t possibly get good scores.

The first exam, Eucalis’s exam, was a practical test.

What he taught in class was handling various weapons at an average level.

 

‘At least in my exam, he should be able to get a good score.’

“I’ll begin.”

Ethan, who raised his hand first, stepped forward.

As he picked up the weapons he had prepared, starting from the leftmost, the atmosphere was completely different from the class.

“Huh…?”

The aura emanating from Ethan was so incredible that Eucalis’s mouth opened slightly for a moment.

Eucalis quickly unfolded a parchment and began grading Ethan Whiskers.

***

After Eucalis’s exam, Ethan took Anest’s exam. Anest’s exam was a written test.

The teachers who entered the exam room glanced at Ethan.

Now everyone attending the workshop knew. That Ethan had to take all the exams.

 

Scratch-.

The learning time was very short. In contrast, the problems were difficult. Although he showed good performance in class, he could fail the exam.

But Ethan was quite a veteran in this area.

‘If I thought I couldn’t do it, I wouldn’t have started in the first place.’

If he thought the exams would be a problem, he wouldn’t have even attempted it from the beginning.

‘It’s enough.’

After Anest’s exam, Ethan took the other exams one by one. It felt like conquering a dungeon.

After taking all the exams, finally, Regia’s exam, the last one, began.

‘For Regia, this is quite mild?’

As Ethan received the exam questions, he began calculating in his head.

“Ummm.”

 

“Hmm…”

The exam room was filled with contemplative groans. Not a single person was able to pick up their pen and write answers.

The exam questions were certainly from the content covered in class.

But just from attending one class, they couldn’t immediately write down the answers.

At that moment, a rustling sound was heard in the exam room.

It was Ethan.

Having finished his calculations, Ethan began writing down answers without hesitation.

Scratch scratch.

The teachers flinched at the continuous sound of the pen.

These problems weren’t ones you could write answers to without contemplation.

Yet, to keep writing answers without stopping meant he had already finished the calculations.

 

“Hmm.”

Regia, who was watching the teachers, smiled contentedly.

It was as if he was saying, “I didn’t set it that difficult, you know.”

***

End of exams.

The teachers stuck out their tongues and talked about the difficult exam levels.

“The last exam was the hardest.”

“I think I just wrote whatever came to mind at the end. Lord Regia himself will grade this, right? Sigh…”

“Well, can’t be helped. I wrote roughly too.”

“But… you saw it, right? The person who kept writing while we were all contemplating.”

“That was Teacher Ethan Whiskers.”

 

Where on earth did such a monster come from?

They doubted if he was really a new teacher like them.

“He seems like an experienced teacher… Did he deceive us?”

“But he doesn’t look experienced.”

“He must be a genius, that’s all.”

“What can we do? They say it’s best to let geniuses go first.”

After sufficient rest time.

All the teachers gathered in the corridor used by the supervising teachers.

Claudie, the department heads or deans, and Ivecar’s new teachers, whom they hadn’t seen in a while, exchanged greetings.

“Everyone looks happy?”

“You can look forward to it!”

 

Iris said with a bright smile.

“Everyone’s here. First, to the new teachers who participated in this conference. You all worked hard.”

The Sword Saint stood in the center of the corridor with the Ramsdale branch members.

Three days. Though shorter than the originally planned dates, it still had impact.

“The conference is not originally a place for competition, but a place to grow together. I hope you learned a lot over the past three days.”

The teachers nodded at the Sword Saint’s words.

“The grade announcement we’re about to make is essentially entertainment. Haven’t you already learned a lot from the classes of the great instructors? So, rankings and such aren’t that important.”

The Sword Saint said.

“Then let’s enjoy the entertainment. I’ll only announce the 1st place academy and teacher who recorded the highest grades in this workshop.”

The teachers swallowed dry saliva.

Many teachers thought that Ivecar Academy, to which Ethan belonged, would win by an overwhelming margin.

 

On the other hand, some teachers thought that Freya Academy might have won by a narrow margin if Ethan’s grades didn’t turn out well, considering he took all the exams.

Grind-.

Overth, the supervising teacher of Freya who was thinking such thoughts, gritted his teeth and focused on the Sword Saint’s mouth.

“Now then, I’ll announce.”

The Ramsdale branch members unfurled a large parchment.

On the parchment, the name of the 1st place in the workshop was written in the Sword Saint’s strong and powerful handwriting.

Overall 1st Place: Ivecar Academy

Overall 1st Place Teacher: Ethan Whiskers

“That’s all.”

With the announcement of the results, applause broke out.

“Congratulations, Teacher Ethan!”

 

Ethan couldn’t hear the congratulations.

Because numerous notification windows saying he had achieved achievements filled his vision.

-You have achieved an achievement!

-You have achieved an achievement!

-You have achieved an achievement!
