58 – … I’m excited.
“Students of Marchen Academy. Welcome.”
It was already evening when I got off the carriage. A wizard in a gray robe greets us.
Natural light green hair and pointy ears. Even her golden eyes full of purity, she is an elf to anyone.
“I have been entrusted with your mid-term evaluation and viewing of Sappho. This is Serena.”
She pointed with her fingertip to a golden pin stuck in the chest of the robe. It probably means that he is related to Sapore.
“Have a good trip, everyone. Never buy anything.”
Violet has been with us all the way here just to send us off.
After hearing about three more worried warnings from Violet, we followed Serena into the huge entrance.
“Wow…. Is it this wide?”
Becky, who was walking side by side, exclaimed.
It deserves to be shed. When I looked at it with my own eyes, I could see why there were people who called Sappho a ‘region’.
Art exhibitions, fairs, hotels, general stores, magic tools stores…. Various things exist here, each with its own large area.
On the surface, it was really at the level of a village.
While looking around, we arrived at a large plaza.
Serena handed out name tags to the students one by one.
[ ]
Nothing is written on the name tag. It was only painted white.
After examining her own and hers several times, Yusia tilted her head.
“Oh, Sir Plan! Nothing is written on our name tags!”
But we weren’t the only ones with blank name tags. All A-class students were given the same type of badge.
And just then.
“Ah, aww!”
A spark flew and a female student fell to the floor along with a chair. All eyes were on her.
From noble mtl dot com
“Why is he like this? I-hey!”
“What? The kid who was sitting still suddenly?”
Two other female students immediately tried to help the fallen student. In fact, the parties do not even move.
But I thought I knew why that student fainted. Unknowingly, I clicked my tongue and made a sound.
“Then why did you carelessly touch it?”
“… ?”
Trixie, who was next to me, looked at me with a questioning expression. Opened at the same time.
“I don’t know what it is, but it’s a big deal…. To pass out.”
“It’s fortunate. Originally, it wouldn’t end in fainting.”
I touched something I shouldn’t have touched, so I passed out and fell down. The reason is simple and clear.
“Everyone, please pay attention.”
Serena opened her mouth. At the same time, the chair that had been knocked over flew towards Serena.
“First, attach a name tag. If it had been distributed without problems, you would have received a white badge.”
A chair floats into the air and rotates. At an angle where the part of her saddle caught our eye, the action stopped.
A red name tag was attached to the part where her buttocks touched.
“You received a physical examination at the Magic Tower. Based on the minimum magical power among you, I have sorted all the items in the fairgrounds.”
As if it’s a story worth emphasizing several times, she tapped her chair with a serious expression.
“Never touch anything with a name tag of a different color on it. Keep in mind that fainting is on the lucky side. If you’re unlucky….”
Serena’s gaze turned to the girl who had passed out.
Then, several of the guys around me swallowed dry saliva.
With this level of good luck, what happens when luck goes bad? There must have been no student who had a hard time making this judgment.
Around that time, Yusia whispered to me in a small voice.
“Sir Plan! It’s Sir Flan after all! Did you know everything?”
Trixie also stares at me with subtle eyes. I roughly nodded.
“The place where you will be staying is only in the ‘first trip’ area…. Sapphore’s anomaly is unavoidable. Please refer to the brochure on this point.”
With that said, Serena distributed a booklet to her students.
Booklets, assisted by spirit movement, fly towards the students in perfect order.
◎ If a woman asks a question about art, she must not answer. Sapphore attaches its own description of the work at the bottom.
◎ Never touch the magic tools lying on the floor. Sapphore doesn’t put things on the floor.
◎ If you accidentally touch a magic tool and need help, be sure to get help from the third person.
◎ If you suddenly feel that Sapore is not where you are standing, please close her eyes and cover her ears. Hold until someone pats you on the back four times.
◎ You must ignore your partner if it appears after not being seen for more than 15 minutes. That’s not your match.
◎ Hotels are an exception. No anomalies occur.
The students started to stir.
“What? Awfully.”
“Is it only in hotels….”
It is unfamiliar to them.
… But these are familiar provisions to me.
In a space where all kinds of magic tools are mixed, the above ‘abnormal phenomenon’ occurs as if it were natural. This is because the strong magical powers of objects collide with each other.
Meanwhile, Serena created a transparent fish tank in the air. There was a lot of paper folded twice inside.
“As long as you follow the rules, there will be no problem.”
However, the students’ expressions did not lighten up at all. Serena continues her words.
“For everyone’s safety, we will work in pairs in Sapore. Then, from now on, we will draw groups.”
The lottery is done quickly and mentally. It didn’t take long to finish.
“Tomorrow is free viewing. We would appreciate it if you could enjoy Sapphore with the designated pair. Then….”
Serena mentally distributed her hotel keys. I am in room 604.
I didn’t even bother to check who I was paired with. The moment I turned my steps to head to the hotel.
Suddenly, I felt an unusual feeling.
“Oops!”
At the same time, a high, feeble scream hit my ears.
Someone in a robe bumped into me, and she even squeezed my shoulders with her gloved hands.
I shrugged her shoulders and examined her exposed face.
Shining silver hair, pointed ears, and light pink eyes…. She seemed to be an elf too.
The energy I feel is very unusual.
“Ouch….”
She looked at me with her brows narrowed, then opened her eyes wide.
“… Whoa, what the hell are you?”
What are you asking about? To be sure, she’s not questioning me right now.
A rather happy response. For a reaction to the fact that I stepped on his toe, it feels out of place.
No, no. In the first place, I should rather receive the apology.
I felt her presence, and I twisted her body to avoid it.
… She dared to bump her body against me. With a lot of intentions.
I was about to take a closer look at my opponent, but Serena shouted and approached me.
“President!”
Everyone’s eyes quickly turned to the word president.
After hearing that she is the president of the society, I can finally understand her extraordinary sense of magical power. The densely condensed mana is quite amazing.
The corners of the president’s eyes are dark and draw an attractive arc.
“Ego, I completely failed to make a good appearance. Nice to meet you all~”
“Oh my God, are you okay?”
Serena hurriedly trimmed the president’s clothes.
As the president walked past the students, Serena shouted.
“Everyone. This is the president of Shusia Society, who was in charge of the ‘first trip’ area of Sappho!”
One, two, Shucia smiled kindly at the students who started to lower their heads.
“Have a good viewing everyone~ Tomorrow is free, right? Enjoy it!”
I looked at her stare at her immaculate appearance, then she turned around.
Shusia.
That may not be her true name.
◈
The next morning, I woke up feeling refreshed.
Hotel facilities in Sapore were quite good.
Neat furniture, soft beds, and an environment where you can use Trivia…. At least I was able to get good quality sleep.
[ *Teaching Auction ]
[ ▶ I came to Sapore! Heh heh ]
[ ▶ I’ll go see a lot of good things! ]
[ *Tricksy von Fritz ]
[ ▶ I thought we were partners. ]
[ ▶ Just sleep in. ]
[ ▶ I said. ]
“… What are you doing alone?”
You shouldn’t call Trixie stupid. Because she just doesn’t know who I am.
For today, it is possible to ‘free view’ of Sapphore. Therefore, I plan to look at all of the magic tools.
However, when I came out to the hotel hallway, the atmosphere was very unusual.
Students were chattering in a chaotic atmosphere. The most read on those faces was concern and concern.
“Ah, Sir Plan! Good morning.”
Even in the middle of the day, only Yoo Shia is bright. She came towards me with Louise.
“Hey…. Hey guys.”
And the next moment, Becky approached me with a worried face.
She cautiously opened her mouth and took out the trivia from her arms.
“Have you guys read the genealogy too?”
I didn’t know the contents, but there were things I could figure out. I remembered the anonymous contact I had received yesterday morning.
Lewis answered with a smile.
“I haven’t seen it, but I have heard of it. Everyone was talking about it.”
“I heard it too!”
Finally, the eyes of the three turned to me. I shook my head and gave an answer instead.
“Uh…. Okay? Don’t you know flan? The story of free viewing to induce distraction and then unraveling the demonic spell has turned around.”
Becky looked at Louis and Yusia and asked.
“Is this real?”
“I asked a few seniors, and they said that they also went through the midterm evaluation that way. It makes sense.”
“Really? So it’s no different from a real genealogy?”
Louise’s words gave Becky a deep sigh of relief.
“Wow…. Thank god. If you didn’t know this, I’d have a heart attack on the spot.”
“Isn’t it quite common to deliberately create an unexpected situation and then evaluate your ability to deal with it? Of course, there will be differences in difficulty.”
While listening to Louis and Becky’s story, Yusia suddenly asked with her eyes shining.
“… By the way, wouldn’t it be possible to die if attacked?”
“Ah…. Never die.”
Becky shakes her head.
“All artificially created monsters are enchanted. It would be a big deal if a student died during an evaluation.”
“Aha, is that so!”
There was not much pressure on the faces of the three who were talking like that.
Well, if you know the enemy and know yourself, there is nothing in danger even if you fight a hundred times. I already know the contents of the evaluation, what are you afraid of?
I rather enjoy it because I feel that way.
─I focused on their midterm evaluation and permeated it.
The information obtained from the ghost is still fresh in my ears.
After listening to the stories of the students, how the blood demons permeated naturally came together like pieces of a puzzle.
There will be raids. However, the monster created by the academy will not appear.
Some of them will be real goblins. Or, all will be.
That’s why.
… Very appropriate
Satisfaction is revealed in his facial expression.
Anyway, as a wizard, you have to grow up in this kind of environment. We guarantee that it will be a great experience for the students as well.
‘I just took one step.’
Just beating Ivan, a first-year student, wouldn’t completely change the perception of the Faculty of Magic and Knight.
No, stopping in this state is rather dangerous.
An unlucky day for the Knights Faculty, and a lucky day for the Magic Faculty.
That’s it. This is close to inevitability.
‘But.’
Punishment.
A subjugation system that has been reserved for the Knights Faculty. If the Faculty of Magic wins there…. At that time, the knights would have no choice but to question their foundation.
Subjugation is a group of 4 people.
I had to grow the three of them quickly, but the current situation is rather good news to me.
Blood demons are better for growth than artificial monsters. Must.
Yusia opened her mouth with her bright face.
“Sir Plan~ By the way, I look forward to seeing you today. What could be more fun than glow-in-the-dark puzzles!”
“There is. I promise you.”
Something that shines more wonderfully at night than night light. Because that’s bloody
“Heo-eok, really!”
Then Louis opened her mouth with a soft smile.
“Yes. There will be Sapphore has a name worth it.”
“Name value?”
“Yes.”
Lewis opened a booklet. A large white name tag was embedded in her booklet.
“Even if you look at the schools on the list, they are very diverse, and the number of magic tools and artworks is the highest this year. So there must be at least one.”
“Okay. I’m looking forward to it!”
“And one more thing.”
Lewis stretched out his index finger. As if there is one more important fact.
“They say there is a magic tool that hasn’t been revealed yet. I heard it was huge.”
“Wow…. Isn’t it night light?”
“Yes, Yusia. That won’t be it.”
As I listened to their conversation, I quietly rubbed my chin.
The only magical tool that has not yet been revealed. For now, that’s the most likely thing the Bloodghost is after.
In other words, the most fun thing ever.
Suddenly, a conversation with a student comes to mind.
ㅡWhat…. Did you coat it with perfume?
ㅡToday, a man is introduced.
ㅡYou were such a favorite opponent.
ㅡI don’t know about that yet. Do this because I don’t know!
I can still vividly see the guy making a fuss and making an excited expression.
There is no information about the other person yet, and I am definitely excited right now…. In fact, there is nothing different from the confrontation expressed by the disciple.
Whether you throw it away because you don’t like it or take it because you like it. I will decide after checking it with my own eyes.
The most important fact is that I am looking forward to it now. There is nothing more serious than that.
Then Louis opened his mouth.
“Anyway, how about flan?”
“Be specific with your questions.”
“Whether it’s an exhibition or evaluation…. I was wondering if I was nervous or anything like that.”
If it was a question with that meaning, the answer was fixed.
A well-prepared subjugation system, the existence of evil people who use magic based on red mana, magic tools that make me look forward to it….
It can only be expressed in one word.
“… I’m excited.”
Then everyone’s eyes widened. Becky even bit her tongue and grabbed her chin.
From noble mtl dot com
“Fland is also feeling the excitement.”
“Flan, did you have feelings?”
“Sir Plan, it is amazing….”
Ignoring their reaction, I quietly thought of a name.
‘Maiev’
… We will meet now
◈
In a certain area of Sapore, there is a huge artwork hanging that takes up an entire wall.
[ Blood Ghost ]
The name of the work is only two letters.
Shusia is still looking up at the work in which red lines are randomly drawn on the black Converse.
The ceiling of Sapore is made of glass. Her warm sunlight splits into her hexagonal shape and shines on her.
A fine artwork and an elegant elf facing it. The landscape also becomes an art. Her expression was now extremely benevolent.
Then, out of nowhere, a butterfly flew right in front of her nose.
Shusia’s gaze reaches the butterfly.
Immediately, the butterfly was trapped in the ‘frame’.
The square frame took the form of a picture frame and turned the butterfly into a small artwork.
But still, the butterfly is alive.
They flap their wings vigorously and struggle to get out, but it just looks like a moving picture.
But still, the butterfly is alive.
They were stuffed alive.
“Ah, president. Were you here?”
A person in charge approached Shusia. She responded with a bright smile.
“Yes~ What’s going on?”
“The students have just entered free viewing.”
“Aha. Should we move slowly? Interim evaluation should be done~”
“Yes, but….”
The official suddenly stopped talking. At the same time, she smiled softly.
“Why is that?”
“No. It suddenly reminds me of my student days. There was a time when I had a white name tag…. I wonder if it was that fresh and cute.”
The name tag on his chest is golden.
Certainly, it was a remarkable growth. Shucia smiles brightly.
“It must have been fresh and cute. Clearly.”
“hahahaha…. Thank you The editorial is long. Let’s go, President.”
“Yes~”
Two people started walking side by side.
At some point Shusia stopped again. Then she holds out her hand towards the official.
“… ?”
Unable to understand the meaning, the person in charge tilted his head.
Shusia calmly opened her mouth.
“Shall we shake hands?”
“A handshake? Suddenly.”
That fleeting moment when the two of you are about to join hands.
Pajijijik─!
“Evil!”
Huge sparks fly and the body of the person in charge is thrown backwards.
After rolling several times on the floor, he shouted without even adjusting his clothes.
“Oh, the president of the society! Stop messing around like this!”
The official shouted as if it was unfair.
“My heart skips a beat every time you play with magic tools! What if my circuit breaks?”
“… Strange?”
Shusia muttered quietly.
“There is nothing wrong with the item. Not even one.”
Her eyes turned to the official. Shusia asks out of nowhere.
“What will happen if this touches the student?”
“Yes?”
“It is exactly what I said. If you reach a student…. How was it?”
The face of the person in charge suddenly turns pale.
“President, you must never joke with students. The whole mana circuit will be broken.”
“Isn’t it?”
Shu Xia nods her head.
“Yes. That’s normal.”
Her eyes looking down at her gloves were meaningful.
