At the same time as the match started, I used my magic towards the opponent who was rushing forward with great force.
flash!
A flash of magic exploded, blinding his vision. The opponent paused for a moment, but that was all.
Of course, it was not a magic that was expected to have a big effect.
Then, the next magic unfolded immediately. Aiming at the feet of the opponent, he dispersed and flew small freezing magics.
I did not intentionally use a large amount of magic. They didn’t let the distance narrow as they quickly flew small magic.
The opponent seemed to be on drugs, but he did not lose his composure.
I didn’t think too much about waiting for my magic power to run out like this, I just focused on evasion, of course, I even thought about coming out like that.
The reason why only the weak magic was blown was to keep the opponent unconsciously vigilant.
To unleash a powerful surprise attack on an opponent who does not know the maximum of my magical output.
My magic skills were average, even if I was good at it, but the total amount of magic was at the top of my school year.
damn!
The slightly deviated cold magic froze the floor and even the opponent’s legs.
The opponent, who was momentarily tied down, was bewildered as he did not know that the magic would spread to such a wide area.
I then raised a fireball like purple in the air. My partner looked at me with a puzzled expression.
If they attacked without stopping, the result would be obvious, so the professor immediately stopped the match.
“End of Dalian.”
Of course, the victory was mine.
“It was wonderful. It was a battle that showed the standard of a wizard against a warrior.”
Professor Loquel seldom offered compliments.
Conversely, the opponent heard the venomous remarks from the professor of the swordsmanship department, and then tumbled back to his place.
“Good job, Lan! I knew you could do it too!”
When I returned to my seat, I was excited to remove the clinging Car-Ann.
By the way, have I become quite proficient?
Now, there is almost no awkwardness or alienation that I felt when performing magic.
I thought I didn’t have any talent for magic, but if I practice, my skills will improve even little by little.
Next, it was Caan’s chalet.
As expected, Kane lightly overpowered the opponent and won.
What she lacked was the variety of magic she had learned, but in just one month, many of her weaknesses disappeared, so her magic skills were now at the top of her class.
The fight continued. Escar lost as expected and Bayon won.
And it wasn’t until the end of class that Rigon’s turn came…
“Wow, I hoped it was, but the two of them are really together.”
I looked at the two men walking out into the middle of the training ground. Lygon and Leia.
For some reason, a strange tension began to rise among the students.
I did just that. Because they were the two most famous people in the school year.
The match between the first freshman in the School of Magic and the first in the School of Swordsmanship was no different than that of a match.
“Anyway, Leah Heriwin will win.”
The interesting thing is that, perhaps because Rigon is from Calderic, even the students of the Swordsmanship School were hoping that Leia, not Rigon, would win.
Of course, I hoped that Rigon would win if possible.
In terms of level alone, Leah was slightly higher, so the result was unknown.
Leah had an expressionless face as usual. It seems like he doesn’t really care who he is.
And it was the same with Lygon.
“Then… the battle begins.”
Dalian began with the professor’s declaration.
The advance was Leah’s share. Lightning magic spread like a web over a wide area and attacked Rigon.
Lygon lowered his stance and evaded to the side, then quickly changed direction and charged.
Lygon’s movements were very fast, but Leia’s response was even faster than that.
This time, the elongated bondage magic like a whip flew in aiming at the limbs.
In the blink of an eye, one workshop ended. Lygon, who had to step back without much effort, looked a little surprised.
Leaping from where she was, she stared at Leah, then put a small smile on her lips and moved her body again.
Kaga Gaga!
Rigon did not dodge the magical blades flying in a pile, but shattered them all with his sword.
All of a sudden, Rigon’s sword was in a state of clear black energy, but when her magic was simply blocked, Leia’s expression frowned a little.
The confrontation between the two turned out to be more intense than expected.
Lygon didn’t bother to avoid magic, but blocked all the magic that could be blocked from the front and narrowed the distance, and Leia gradually increased the strength of her magic.
When Rygon approached, Leia boldly blasted a shockwave from a nearby distance, widening the street.
After spinning a few laps in the air, Rygon landed on the floor and ran towards her again, making sure there was no damage.
The students watched with admiration in the high-level workshop that could not be called the level of a student already.
Perhaps it was difficult to shake off Rigon, Leia was rarely seen biting her lip with a stiff expression.
At this rate, it seems that Leia’s magic power will run out faster than Rigon’s physical strength.
At that time, Leah’s magic began to change into an unusual nature.
‘······Five?’
Three small purple spheres floated around her.
That’s not the common magic that students usually learn.
Lygon didn’t react much to him and continued to charge, but then a reaction occurred from the purple sphere.
flash!
Like a guided missile, the rays from the purple sphere bent strangely and aimed at Rigon’s whole body.
It was Rigon who avoided a direct hit by throwing himself into the car with an intermittent shot, but blood dripped from his arm as if he had rubbed it.
Lygon’s eyes widened as if quite startled.
‘What kind of magic is that?’
What, some sort of arcane magic from the Heriwin family?
No matter how good Leah is, it’s impossible to control all that low density of magic with her powers.
If she doesn’t control everything, it’s probably the nature of magic itself. It was pretty brutal magic.
“I’ll admit it. You’re strong.”
Leah opened her mouth while still floating purple balls around.
“But the matchmaking is my victory. If I use this magic too, I can’t do it in moderation, so I must admit defeat.”
Surely, if you get hit with something like that orthodox, it won’t end up hurting a little.
When he saw Professor Loquel, he seemed to think that he should stop the match, but…
“You are very strong too.”
Rigon said in a rarely raised voice.
With a bright smile on his lips, he got up, wiping off the blood.
“But aren’t you too arrogant? To say that after just one attack.”
Leah’s expression turned coldly.
Professor Locale looked at the professor of the Swordsmanship Department with a slightly perplexed look.
But, standing with her arms crossed, she smiled and shook her head.
“Isn’t it okay yet, Professor Loquel? I’m sure you’ll be able to stop it before it happens.”
Professor Loquel clicked his tongue in annoyance, but didn’t stop the fight in the end.
Jiying!
Three ray of purple rays were again aimed at Rygon.
Rigon thought it could not be stopped, so he twisted his body back and forth to avoid it.
Leia’s eyes were busily chasing Rigon’s accelerating movements. The ray bent dizzy and persistently pursued Rigon.
At this rate, the disadvantaged side still looked like Rygon, but…
remorse.
Rigon, who suddenly stopped moving, raised his sword upright. completely exposing yourself to attack.
Leah also paused for a moment.
“What are we going to do? Give up?”
“I guess. I’m going to try some gambles because it’s going to be difficult if it’s like this.”
Lygon stumbled. At the same time, Leia also shot a beam of light at Rygon.
And in the next moment, Rigon’s sword drew a smooth path and deflected all the rays.
The beams swept away from Leah’s control for a moment, and the gap was long enough to close the distance.
Quang!
Lygon’s sword controlled the light magic and shattered Leah’s weakened shield in one breath.
Leah looked at the half-broken blade pointed at her neck with trembling eyes.
“I won.”
“············”.
Having said that, Rigon took a deep breath and pulled out his sword.
Overturning the unfavorable situation, Dalian was a victory for Ligon in the end.
I hope I can comb out all the rays.
I also learned swordsmanship, so I knew just how absurd it was at the current Rigon level.
Indeed, it was a talent that Ashel called a genius beyond herself.
“······· Did you lose? Me?”
Leah, who was still standing still in her place, could hear a muttering blankly.
He seemed to be very proud of his own abilities, so it seemed shocking that he was defeated even though he did his best.
Lessons and adaptation (7)
Professor Loquel was sitting in his office, looking through the plan that Professor Gaon of the Swordsmanship Department had given him.
As for the plan, it was related to the upcoming semester exam.
“······Hmm.”
Professor Loquel, who buried his back in the chair, crossed his arms with a curious expression.
I got caught last time and listened to it a bit, but honestly, I thought it was a pretty interesting idea.
The test method is quite radical, and there are many things to prepare for, but this is not enough to hear from the committee…
“How are you, Professor Locale? It must be difficult, isn’t it?”
The assistant professor who delivered the plan asked with an awkward smile.
“No, it’s better than I thought. I’ll have to think about it a bit more.”
“········Yes? Really?”
“What’s wrong?”
“Oh, no. Then I’ll pass it on to Professor Gaon.”
“Okay. There’s no need to bother. I’ll tell you later.”
shudder.
The assistant professor came out of the office and let out a small sigh.
Professor Locale is reluctant to deal with Professor Gaon, saying that he is a different kind of person, but he can see that the two have a pretty good personality. If you look at it like this
Are you really trying to force freshmen to take such a merciless test?
“The first year students are going to have a hard time…”
The assistant professor shook his head and moved forward.
***
Nearly three months have passed since I entered the school.
Time at the academy passed slowly and quickly without any incident.
“Where have you been, Lan?”
“Wait at the library. I have a book I’m looking for.”
Late afternoon after class.
Me, Rygon, and Bayon headed to an outdoor table located near the dormitory building.
Before dinner, as promised, it was a normal routine to gather there and chat.
As I was walking down the hallway, Leah was walking in the opposite direction.
Rigon, who made eye contact with her, greeted her first without hesitation.
“hi.”
“············”.
Leah just nodded her head once and passed by without saying a word.
We were going the way we were going, but at the gaze I felt, I turned my head to the back.
Leah, who had been glancing at this side, was startled and turned around, pretending not to be.
Seeing the back of her walking away at a fast pace, she wondered what the hell she wanted to do.
“what’s the matter?”
“Nope.”
After the last exchange class, Leia’s attitude was strange whenever she happened to meet Rygon. It was because it was clearly visible that he was conscious of Rygon.
I’ve never seen her try to get along with any other students in her class.
Of course, the reason must be the battle with Rigon.
At first, I thought that the loss was resentful and hostile, but it didn’t seem like that.
‘I think it’s rather the opposite.’
I want to say something, but I feel like I can’t just look at it.
If it wasn’t meant to harm Rygon, I wouldn’t know.
When we arrived at our destination, we saw Car-Ann and Esca sitting first.
“Are you here?”
Kane waved her hand and sobbed. We sat across from each other.
We wasted our time by talking nonsense.
“So, are you going to go out with me this holiday? Escar.”
“Ummm… sorry. Exams are just around the corner. Until then, I just want to focus on my studies.”
“Hey….”
Car-Ann stretched her body to the table with a look of dissatisfaction.
Eska put her hands on her shoulders and rubbed them like she was soothing.
As I just said, Escar doesn’t seem to get along very well with Car-Ann because she’s busy with her studies these days.
“How are you guys? Ligon, Bayon. How are you preparing for the exam?”
