Vol. 3 Ch. 1 Ep. 7: Exam Prep

I don't understand this question, Hanako.

Hmm? This problem is about prime factorization. You can use divisibility rules here. All you have to do is...

Hmm. I see.

...

...

Hmm? Are you stuck on something, Koharu?

N-No! Of course not!

FYI, the page you're on right now won't be on the exam.

I-It won't be?!

I-I knew that! I-I was just getting ahead, that's all!

...

I don't understand the meaning of this sentence, Hanako.

It's the first verse of an ancient epic. It translates to, "O goddess of poetry, sing a song of rage."

Ah, that one. I understand.

...

Hanako, this one...

That's a translation of an ancient language. Hold on a second. Let me grab a dictionary so we can understand it better.

Oh, in that case, I think I've got it. Gaudium et spes... Joy and hope, I think.

Correct. That's the slogan of the second council. More importantly, can you read that language, Azusa?

Yeah. I learned a long time ago.

...

"This is going well."

Isn't it? Hanako seems to have a real knack for tutoring! And Azusa has a real will to learn!

And since Koharu said she was hiding her full potential...

...I have a feeling that the exams will be a breeze!

What a relief. To be honest, I was really worried...

In fact, the Tea Party gave me an order to start a boot camp for the second exam if any one of us fails the first one.

Yes. That's how far they're taking things. If anyone fails all three exams...

N-Nothing! I don't think we have to worry about that, so let's not jinx it.

At the rate things are going, the exams should be no problem!

By the way, could Hanako have failed by missing the exam like I did? I mean, she seems so good at studying. I don't know how else she could have failed...

...

Hmm...

Heehee.

...

"Good luck on the first exam, everyone."

I-I don't need luck. I'll show you what it means to be elite, just you watch!

A-Ahaha...

Here goes nothing. Heehee.

Understood. All preparations are complete.
