A God Killed Me By Accident, But I Reincarnated As The 4th Son Of The Marquis

Volume 7 Chapter 5: Rankings

Volume 7 Chapter 5: Rankings

"It's probably because you caused so much trouble at the beginning of the semester." Herrick and Melor did cause discord, leading the other dwarves and beastmen to cause trouble. 

The professors definitely lowered their ranking because of this. 

"I'm pretty sure it could be higher after what you guys did." And the people who changed the most were Herrick and Melor. They were the most troublesome, yet they changed the most because of this. Their growth was astonishing. 

"True. I guess we have to prove ourselves again." Herrick understood it as well. 

"But I think we should be more concerned with this guy." Alfia's eyes gazed at Keith. That caused the rest to do the same. They were all surprised that the man was ranked eighth. He was the strongest out of all of them. 

Faelyn thought, "I think it's because he had been doing those drills so light-heartedly." That could be the reason why he was lower than the rest. The first test they took was where the man had used gravity bracelets. 

"Oh, yeah. I was only practicing." Keith scratched his head. He had forgotten about those tests. 

"Not funny." The others couldn't laugh. 

"If you took it seriously, you would probably end them all." That was something everyone knew for sure. His strength and magic were the highest out of all of them.

"Are you going to take the midterm exam seriously?"

"Of course I am." Keith nodded, "And you guys shouldn't worried about me. The ones we should be worried about are these two." Herrick and Melor were the people they should focus on. 

"What? We're already worried as is."

"Don't forget about your studies. Character is important. However, I'm positive there will be a written test or something." A written exam was definitely a norm. 

"Argh!" Just hearing it was enough to cause Herrick and Melor to groan.

"Don't be sad. We have enough time for you to cram. Let's go get something to eat." Gabriel suggested. There was no use crying over spilled milk. 

It would only hurt their head even more. 

"But I don't want to be demoted!" Herrick held his head. That was the other thing going on with this midterm. Aidiun also reminded,

Those in the lower ranking shall have the chance to be demoted into A-class. And those top 5 from A-class have the chance to be bumped into S-class. 

Those cold words caused everyone to jolt. 

"Are you kidding me? How could Professor Adiun say that?!" Herrick wanted to cry. 

"Relax, we got time to do it." Keith shook his head. As they continued to worry, they were going to go crazy. Herrick and Melor could only pout at his words. However, hearing that they would have lunch made their mood slightly better. 

"Keith, I'm going to go." 

"Hmm?"

"I'm having lunch with some of my club members. We need to discuss some things."

"Ahh, ok. Be safe." Keith didn't say anything else as the group sat down at his usual table.

"Keith, what's wrong with Herrick and Melor?" Sarah questioned. The two had become so meek. Their energetic aura they always had was gone. 

"Class rankings."

"Ahh," The four who weren't there understood. 

"What about you guys? What rankings did you get?" It was probably the same thing with the other classes.

"Oh, we're fighting to get to A-class. I'm second, while Jack is fourth." The two were at the top of B-class.

"That's great." 

"Me too!" Arlo pumped his fist, "Professor Aidiun helped with our studies." During their off time, Aidiun would help the students with their work. Having the S-class homeroom teacher really helped out their studies. 

"I couldn't understand everything." Herrick and Melor muttered. 

"..." Keith shook his head. 

"What should we do?!"

...

"Hmm? You're not going to come home with us?" Scarlet and Alfia tilted when they heard Keith's words. 

"I'm going to go somewhere. I want to make something." There was something he had been planning to buy. That got Herrick and Melor excited, "Is it new meat?"

"No, it's not that. I'm going to get something for my coffee." It was time to make it. Thinking about it, it was something that could be made with ease.

"Aww."

"We got the smoker. Why are you guys acting so differently?" Keith shook his head as he set off to Dalen's workshop. When he arrived, "Scar, I need your help making something."

"Hmm? What do you need my help to make?"

"A machine to make a good drink."

"What kind of drink is it?!" "Is it selling in the market?!" "Tell us!" Behind him were a bunch of dwarfs. Hearing how Keith was going to make something new, they had to jump at the chance!

"Enough, the kid asked me. Back off!" Skar growled at the others. But that only got a cold grunt from the others.

"What do you need my help on?"

"I want you to build this." Keith had taken out the blueprints. But when Skar stared at it, his expression changed, "A kettle?"

"No, it's not a kettle. This is an espresso machine."
