Latest Advance Chapter Chapter 164
Chapter 92 Chief Invigilator
The male invigilator's name was Louis, he was stunned and did not dare to reply.
The man in front of him was the third ring mage who was in charge of overseeing this mock exam. His name was Rupert. He had worked hard for 37 years in the Torrendo Magic Association and was quite prestigious.
At the same time, Rupert was also known for his strictness. During his years as a chief invigilator, Rupert had uncovered at least hundreds of unlucky individuals who attempted to cheat. Even his colleagues were in awe of his vigorous and resolute behavior.
The so-called chief invigilator was the supervisor who walked around the various examination rooms during the exam. At the same time, the chief invigilator would also supervise each invigilator. Because there had been cases in the past that students bought the invigilator to help them cheat, so the authority of the chief invigilator was much greater than that of the general invigilator, and Rupert was more deterrent.
"Mr. Rupert, the exam has just finished, we have to collect the test papers."
The name of the female invigilator was Remia, she was a little bolder and reminded Rupert.
"It's okay, you continue to collect the test papers, I'm here for Reiner Ian Gray."
Rupert came to the podium, picked up the seating chart of the examination room, and quickly found Reiner's seat.
The students couldn't help whispering, no one knew why Rupert was looking for Reiner, but according to the rumors, all the students that Rupert looked for basically didn't end well.
"Did this guy cheat?"
James, who was in the same examination room, thought to himself. He couldn't help feeling a little excited and pleased inside. He wanted to see Reiner making a fool of himself.
Dana watched Rupert walking towards Reiner with some worry. She didn't know the old mage, but the legend she had heard before made her feel very anxious.
Reiner looked directly at Rupert, who was slowly approaching. He hadn't violated the exam regulations, so naturally, he was not afraid.
Rupert walked to Reiner's table, cleared his throat, and asked.
"Are you Reiner Ian Gray from Luna Nova Magical Academy?"
"Yes, I am."
Reiner met with Rupert's eyes.
The air in the examination room was so silent for a moment. Rupert continued.
"Please come with me."
Reiner didn't say much, he stood up, followed Rupert out of the classroom, and winked at Dana before going out, so that she didn't have to worry too much.
The exam was just over, and the invigilators were still collecting papers in each exam room. There was no one in the hallway. Reiner retrieved his storage bag, and secretly put on the ring transformed from the Hohenheim Gold Cup, and then followed Rupert to an office on the fourth floor of the building.
"What's wrong?"
Reiner asked. He saw Rupert closing the door gently, and after a long sigh of relief, he took out a stack of parchment from the desk drawer and handed it to Reiner.
"What is this?"
Reiner took the parchment and found that it was densely written with many words. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that it was a thesis.
"This is a thesis?"
Seeing the name of Rupert on the paper, Reiner was even more puzzled.
At this moment, Rupert suddenly leaned forward and said in a completely different tone from the previous one.
"Mr. Ian Gray. This is a paper of mine, which has not been submitted for review. I am wondering if you can help me correct the omissions..."
"What?"
Wasn't this the plot of someone who was not happy with his achievement and trying to accuse him of cheating during the exam?
Reiner was stunned. Seeing Rupert's sincere and eager eyes, he squeezed out a smile and turned his gaze back to the paper.
"Mr. Ian Gray, please sit here."
Rupert pulled out a chair, let Rainer sit down, and poured a cup of tea for him.
"I have been stuck in the third ring for many years. I had already given up my hope of promotion, but after I recently read your paper, I suddenly have a few inspirations..."
He explained, like a lonely old man who hadn't confided his heart to others for a long time.
"I'm usually very serious in front of those younger generations, I feel embarrassed to tell you this in front of other people, so I can only invite you to come over and help me review the paper in this way."
It turned out that the old man was sensitive about his reputation.
Reiner smiled, and then quickly finished reading Rupert's paper.
The content of the paper was not complicated, but it may be that Rupert had not been exposed to cutting-edge academic theories for many years, or he was indeed lacking in talents. Many of the assumptions and reasoning processes of this paper had many loopholes. It was really not a qualified thesis. Even if the paper was revised, Reiner felt that the possibility of passing the review was not high.
The paper was the first draft, and there were many traces of revision. It could be seen that this was a paper that Rupert spent a lot of time writing, but this hard work could not smooth out the defects in the content of the paper.
Until this time, Reiner realized that it was not easy to get feedback and promotion by exploring the world. If Reiner hadn't had knowledge from the earth and certain experimental conditions, it would've been very difficult for him to have any achievement.
Compared with the earth, this world paid more attention to individual talents. The gap between talented people and mediocre people was not easy to catch up with with hard work.
Like Rupert, there were many mages who had made achievements when they were young, but could not break through because they were stuck in a bottleneck. These people were what the average person in the world looked like.
The painstaking effort of average people may not be able to match the whim of a genius.
"Mr. Rupert, your paper..."
Reiner considered it for a moment, and finally decided to tell Rupert the truth.
He patiently explained some omissions in the paper, and Rupert's face became worse and worse when he heard it.
Finally, after Reiner finished explaining the thesis, Rupert fell into another chair and was speechless for a long time.
"Hehe, it seems that I may not be able to be promoted to a middle-level mage in my entire life."
Rupert smiled. In Reiner's opinion, it was not a desperate smile, but a feeling of finally letting go.
"Thank you, Mr. Ian Gray. Actually, I gave up long ago. As a mage, I am still not talented enough. I just want to fight for the last time, so that I will have no regrets in my life."
He stood up and bowed to Reiner again.
"I'm so sorry that I've wasted your time."
Rupert opened the door and signaled that Reiner could leave.
Reiner nodded. He thought about it and said to Rupert before leaving the office.
"Mr. Rupert, I think that the value of a person should not be reflected only by the level of magic. The decades of your work here are not meaningless. This is your achievement worthy of praise. You are an honorable mage who deserves everyone's respect."
After that, Reiner bowed to him and left.
Rupert heard the words and was stunned for a long time before he let out a sigh.
