[368] Special training (3)

Serious training began.

Practice focused on the shotgun movement, and during breaks, he studied batteries for laser-guided technology.

Thanks to Isabelle's tutoring for an hour a day, I was getting a rough idea of the radio wave.

Fleur returned from work and evaluated the day's achievements.

However, there was no sign of a passing decision coming out of her strict mouth.

"Slow. again."

Shirone gritted his teeth and cast the shotgun movement. Every time that happened, Fleur stood in front of Shirone and grabbed his shoulders with both hands.

I hoped for luck, but it seemed that there was no mistake for a professional mage.

'How are you going to find me? No, can humans really react?'

Her synesthesia was too sensitive to attribute it to Shirone's immaturity.

In any case, there could be no complaints about being guided by an outstanding wizard, and like that, day by day was accumulating.

"Ahh!"

With a dull sound, Shirone rolled across the floor. His back arched and his face contorted in pain.

I was so concerned with the photon output that I missed the landing point of the teleportation.

Flew looked down at Shirone, who was lying at his feet.

"again."

Flashes of light like firecrackers exploded in the center of the training ground.

Photon output spreads in seven directions, and Shirone safely arrives at its destination. I couldn't even see Fleur's face that I was tired of looking at.

'done! I got it right this time!'

It was clear that he had lost track of the shotgun movement. As expected, Flew did not move from its original position.

She closed her eyes and crossed her index finger.

"It's time."

Shirone asked with a gasping face.

"Why? The force was perfect, and even seniors couldn't catch me."

"Look where you stand."

Shirone looked around at her feet. He got the direction right and he couldn't find anything out of the ordinary.

"Why are you here?"

"Looking at it roughly, I could only move 8 meters. You, don't you use teleportation compulsive 10 meters?"

"ah… … ."

How could this be? Mistaking the basics of the basics.

"Listen. The obsession with teleportation must not be shaken under any circumstances. In practice, hundreds of turns pass in an instant, and you have to navigate through complex terrain. If the obsession is shaken, you die the moment you do it. That's why even high-ranking mages don't change their compulsion during battle."

"Yes, sorry."

At the dispirited answer, Flew put her hand on her waist and snorted.

"The weakening of the basics means that you have become more technically proficient. But at times like this, you shouldn't be vigilant. All applications ultimately come from solid fundamentals."

Shirone clenched his fists and carved her words into his heart.

Basic, basic, everything.

next day.

Shirone finally succeeded in the shotan movement.

Flew did not move and his direction was correct. Also, the teleportation distance was perfect at 10 meters.

"ah… … It finally worked."

I was so nervous that I couldn't even feel the joy of success.

But Flew still didn't laugh. Rather, he approached with a colder gaze than before, as if starting from now on.

"ruler. So let's get down to business. Your own shotgun movement."

Understanding Fleur's meaning, Shirone immediately changed her expression.

The shotgun movement itself is a good magic, but the reason why I chose this among the numerous spell books was that it could be converted into attack magic.

'Let's not be nervous. It's just turning the photon output into a photon cannon.'

So far, the time taken for the Santan movement is three weeks. If you don't pass here, you will be delayed for a few more days, and then you will have very little time to learn the advanced course, Laser Guided Magic.

"Get started. I will take it myself."

Flew's eyes were completely different from when he was evaluating the shotan movement.

Unlike photon output, Photon Cannon is a perfect offensive magic. Also, since it was the final evaluation, there was also a mission to be sincere.

Shirone took a deep breath and timed it. Assuming 1 second later, he interrupted the opponent's tempo by casting a teleportation at 0.5 seconds.

As the body glowed, photon cannons bounced in all directions, and at the same time the flue moved.

Shirone has arrived in the west. Therefore, it was the Photon Cannon that flew to Flew who arrived in the south.

The moment he felt the photon cannon through the spirit zone, Flew's head tilted back involuntarily.

The photon cannon that passed in front of her eyes crashed into the wall, and the training ground rang with a thud.

"Uh, how are you? Will this work in practice?"

"… … ."

Fleur recalled the situation from a while ago.

The pressure to receive the photon cannon was much stronger than expected. The subject of force was fast speed, different from other magic.

Quasi-sub-light speed is a standard created to define the speed of light realized by magic.

Speed that is not used in the physical world, but is indistinguishable from light with the eyes of living beings.

If you shoot an arrow with a luminous object at night, it will look like a flash of light.

However, the Photon Cannon I experienced was much faster than expected. Rather, it is close to the speed of the bullet fired by the gun. It means that the ratio of mass and output was properly matched.

A mass larger than the magic bullet is pushed into the bullet. Therefore, it is rigid in the position of the victim.

Existing shotgun movement is a bang at best even if it doesn't catch the opponent, but this one was a bang.

"pass. This will be enough for real combat."

Shirone's face finally turned to life.

"Whoa, I'm glad. It's worth the hard work for 3 weeks. thank you!"

There is nothing more gratifying than learning a new magic from a wizard, so Flew, who understood Shirone's feelings, erased his serious expression and smiled.

"I have to keep my senses for now. Is it okay if I continue practicing?"

"of course. It's important to remember the feeling of success. But don't push yourself too hard."

From then on, Shirone practiced the shotan movement until she was exhausted.

After two hours, there was no error in the power of the Photon Cannon no matter where it moved in the eight directions.

"Ego, waist."

Flew, who was watching Shirone's training, patted her waist while avoiding the photon cannon.

I wouldn't have known if I had avoided it with my strength, but since I moved with manipulation-type magic, I couldn't help but get sick.

'Once you master it, you master the intermediate level in two hours. Certainly talent is talent.'

As I read in an academic journal, Shirone's talent was insight. A mage with an extremely strong propensity to delve into the core rather than miscellaneous skills.

Perhaps that was where Gaold was hoping.

"Whoa."

After training, Shirone looked up at the ceiling with a sweaty face.

The state of unity derived from a sense of achievement is a miracle section that can improve your skills in a short time.

Mages call it Fever.

"Are you done?"

Shirone had a satisfied face.

"yes. I think I got used to it to some extent."

"From tomorrow, we will go into laser guidance technology. But before that, there is something I need to point out."

The joy of success disappeared from Shirone's eyes.

Anything should be heard.

While living with the Association's professional wizards, their way of thinking was naturally familiar to them.

"I felt after watching you for 3 weeks, your balance is very broken."

"yes? Balance?"

Flew twirled her fingers around to outline Shirone's spirit zone.

"The biggest problem is that the spirit zone is too big. It just feels like it's over 80 meters in diameter."

"Does that matter?"

"In practice, the difference between winning and losing is in the smallest details. It is important to strike the golden balance of density, volume, specific gravity, and durability. You have a tendency, how to say, to over-pace. For an opponent with 100 durability, 100 power is enough. But they pour 120 or 130 unconsciously."

The Spirit Zone is the materialization of the spirit, so lies do not work. Looking back on all the battles he had so far, he thought, he must have been.

"It still is. When you and Spirit Zone overlap, the tension pierces me. It's always been a question Unless you've only been fighting monsters so far."

Shirone couldn't deny it.

Looking back on the time of one year since learning magic, there weren't many times when he competed against an equal opponent. At least by his standards, every enemy was a monster.

When Shirone was silent, Fleur also realized. Certainly, if he had grown up through such battles, it would make sense for the Spirit Zone to enter a state of display like a wounded beast.

"Anyway, that's not good. I'll help you, so let's find the golden balance."

Flew went to the wall and flipped the image zone switch.

When Shirone's spirit zone became visible in bluish light, the lights in the training ground were turned off to further enhance the clarity.

Shirone just watched the beautifully shining Spirit Zone.

At that moment, Flew hugged him from behind and hugged him tightly.

"Uh, there… … ."

"Stay still."

Fleur blocked Shirone's words with a calm, subdued voice.

Then, when the spirit zone was opened, Shirone's spirit zone was clearly conveyed through synesthesia.

'I'm also quite nervous. Almost like a wizard on the battlefield.'

Flew closed her eyes, concentrated, and gave Shirone instructions.

"Now, close your eyes and take a deep breath. Reduce the spirit zone until you feel most comfortable."

Shirone relaxed and relaxed.

As the spirit zone, which had been inflated like a balloon, gradually diminished, I felt that my head became lighter.

"good… … . continue… … ."

As the spirit zone was further reduced, tension that had not been felt until now began to reveal itself.

"huh… … little bit more… … ."

Fleur felt the Shirone with all her nerves.

"more. more… … yes. yes, fine."

Flew's voice disappeared at that point.

Shirone bowed her head before she knew it and enjoyed the infinitely warm feeling. She was warm and serene, as if in her mother's arms.

Flew's eyelids lifted slowly, as if waking up.

"… … it's okay?"

"Yes, that is good."

Leaving his hands off Shirone's waist, Fleur slowly retreated, killing footsteps and going to the device in the Image Zone.

Looking at the instrument panel, it was 62.8 meters in diameter.

When the light came on, Shirone also opened her eyes. Her mind was clear as if she had been through a long sleep.

"Remember the feeling now. Size, shape, feel, density, everything. Everything contained in the sphere with a diameter of 62.8 meters is your current golden balance."

I could understand Fleur's words. The higher the density, the clearer the surroundings, and the stronger the durability.

Above all, the flow of thoughts was unobstructed like water.

"It's really comfortable. However, at 62.8 meters, it did not increase significantly compared to a year ago. Would it be okay?"

"Yeah, that's good enough. Unless you're a sniper, you don't need a spirit zone that's too big. How many times do you say you fight an enemy at a distance you can't see? Even if you just learn the four ways, the range more than doubles."

"It is, but… … ."

"Trust me. For a search-type zoner, the diameter of the spirit zone must exceed at least 1 kilometer. The communication wizard is a breakaway spirit zone and needs to transmit information dozens of kilometers away. However, some battle mages have a spirit zone that is only 10 meters in diameter. Instead, they lose focus on density and durability."

It meant that it was important to have a mental state that could increase the efficiency of magic by 100%.

"Don't be fooled by shame. Because it hardens your mind. Of course, it is essential for a battle mage to gauge an opponent's capabilities with numbers. But imagining the outcome ahead of time is dangerous. There are no absolute advantages or absolute disadvantages of any trait. Depending on the opponent, the criteria for good or bad are different, and winning or losing depends on how much your style can cope with various situations."

Shirone nodded his head as if resolving.

"Yes, I will keep that in mind."

Chapter - 369 - Special Training (4) 6.txt

===============================

[369] Special training (4)

Shirone trained in laser guidance magic in earnest.

Being able to use lasers, omnipotence was not a problem, but the batteries were beyond the advanced class level.

In that sense, Isabelle was a savior.

As the director of a magic library, her explanations were easy to understand, but never missed the point.

Light is also a type of electromagnetic wave. The laser-guided magic developed by the Jacobins is an active homing system, a technology that guides a projectile to a target by observing the wavelength emitted when a laser collides with an object.

And in order for this to be possible, a laser search magic called seeker had to be preceded.

"OMG! I don't know, I don't know! what's this! After all, it is information magic!"

Shirone looked away from the book and cried.

The page he was currently viewing had an algorithm for attaching a seeker written on it, but from his point of view, it was like the language of a monster.

Flew, who was reading a magic book across the training ground, clicked his tongue and said.

"That's why you should have chosen the magic book while considering the level of difficulty. One month left. Why don't you give up now and look for something else?"

Shirone looked at Fleur with sullen eyes. Anyway, I'm going to die of disgust.

"Your senior also said it was okay at first."

"Well, I'm not saying it's impossible even now. If you work hard, it could be done in a month. But anyway, there's a plan B, right?"

"Hmm, plan B… … ."

As Flew said, if you were going to give up, you had better do it now.

If I invested more time here, I could have been satisfied with only the shotgun movement and had to go back to school.

"I'll just try to finish it. I learned a lot thanks to you. Same with radio waves."

After Shirone finished speaking, Flew covered the magic book she was reading and stood up.

"Okay, if that's what you think, let's get serious about it."

Shirone raised her head to follow Fleur's face as she approached.

"Right now, the most important thing is seeker. Link magic that fuses laser and photon cannons."

"yes. But is this too difficult? I'm weak against information magic."

"It's not just information wizards who use algorithms. For example, I know how to do it."

"yes? Are you a senior?"

Shirone narrowed his eyes in disbelief. Flew then grabbed his magic wand and entered the center of the training ground. Then he hit the ground with his pole and showed off his skills.

"Bonghwangjeong."

A huge phoenix rose like smoke from the crystal ball at the tip of the staff and floated into the air.

Since no one came within the radius, the fire bird remained silent with only flapping wings.

Flew pointed at himself and said.

"What do you think my major is?"

"Ah, yes… … Aren't you a fire mage?"

"no. Of course, I deal with flames, but to be precise, I am Joner."

Recalling Ethella, Shirone tilted her head.

A huge spirit zone that transcends common sense and a highly polite sense are characteristics of Jonah, but Flew had none of them.

"It's a special major, so you might not know. That's why when people say Joner, they usually only think of search-type wizards. But by Joner, I just mean an expert in the Spirit Zone."

Flew spread out two fingers.

"Zoner is largely divided into exploration and manipulation, and I am a manipulation wizard belonging to the latter."

"Aha, you're manipulating that phoenix."

"okay. Bonghwangjeong fires flames at all targets in the spirit zone. The reason it responds much faster than synesthesia is because it borrows the Dawkins algorithm. Neurological and mental automatic reactions. It was also an automatic reaction that prevented the vampires from attacking the Gold Tower."

Shirone's expression darkened.

Joner, a top graduate of the Royal Magic School and a special major.

It was because of her that it was possible to accurately balance the golden spirit zone.

"It is the same with the navigation system. If the virtue of a battle mage is durability, then Joner is someone who is obsessed with density. However, since the mind is not a particle, even if it is 100% dense, it does not mean that it is full. It just means that your sixth sense is 100% accurate. So above 95 percent it's really hard to raise."

Flew passed the magic wand behind him and moved away. Shirone's head turned around.

"Of course, if you're a Joner, you basically have to give 100 percent. Then, to increase clarity, we use a unit called specific gravity. If you think of a normal spirit zone as a gas, Jonah's spirit zone can reach the specific gravity of liquid, clay, or even rock, depending on the level."

When Shirone sat back down, Flew stopped there and raised her finger.

"Nevertheless, the minimum standard for Joner is 60 percent density. The spirit zone of the exploration series is incredibly large. If you expand the Spirit Zone to a diameter of 2km without entering Immortal Function, the density drops to 0%. That's why Jonah is density, only density."

Anyway, if the density is in the 0% range, the spirit zone won't even be created. However, a simple comparison made the understanding clear.

"So, how do you search a 2 kilometer radius with 60 percent density? This is where algorithms come into play. For example, using the Pisaski algorithm, you can search for metal objects within a radius. Because it captures the reflectance of light, its efficiency drops at night."

Shirone was shocked by the novelty. If normal magic affects the outside world, Algorithm is meta magic that gives the spirit zone a unique function.

It couldn't be the same as the schema, but magic against magic was developed even for wizards.

How vast is the alternative magic world?

My heart started beating fast. wide. and deep There was a huge playground in front of my eyes that I would not get tired of even if I worked for the rest of my life.

* * *

With the help of Fleur, Shirone learned the algorithm to enter the seeker step by step.

It was a continuation of the basics, and Isabel's intensive management of advanced and complex theories.

Time passed quickly, and with four days left before leaving the Magic Association, I was able to finish the pruning stage.

"at las. finished."

After covering the magic book, Shirone lay down. He had never studied so hard, even in school.

It was not a matter of effort, but a biological limitation.

Humans have to sleep somehow, but the magic association's sleep device has overcome the impossible.

"I did it, I. I really did."

Shirone muttered in a confused state of mind. Steam seemed to be escaping from the outside of her head.

Flu, who had suffered as much as Shirone, had lost his face in a month.

"… … You are also a real poison. Let's just give up."

In the beginning, the flue was full of enthusiasm, but as the middle was over, the limit gradually came.

Of course, she had to take care of the association's work during the day, but even considering that, Shirone's tenacity was amazing.

"lol! how is it? Did I do it?"

Flew kept his last pride.

"no. do you know what It was a physically impossible time for a normal person. You just finished the battery. Therefore, my calculations were correct."

Shirone also admitted that fact.

Just learning a battery doesn't activate magic.

Even so, the reason he was obsessed with laser guidance to the end was because, unlike others, he was already equipped with omnipotence.

"Then shall we begin soon?"

When Shirone slipped up, Fleur shook her head.

"No, no. Rest unconditionally today."

"But I don't have time."

"If not, then no! If you go to practice in that state, you will really die. It's not just you dying, I'm dying too!"

"Then even if it's a sleeping device… … ."

"Not even that! Get into your room right now! If you don't sleep more than 8 hours today, I won't help you in the future!"

Fleur pushed Shirone on the back and forced her back to her quarters.

Shirone's footsteps on the way back were heavy. There is no time. Her mind was so impatient that she didn't even think about lack of sleep.

"little bit more. Let's at least go to bed and review."

Shirone lay down on the bed with a laser guidance magic book.

And fell asleep after 1 second.

afternoon the next day.

"Ahh! It's a big deal!"

People passing by the corridor turned their heads at the sound leaking from inside the accommodation.

As soon as the door opened, Shirone ran to the training ground without even washing her hair.

3 days left now.

If you practice today and get evaluated tomorrow, you will be able to achieve your intended goal.

When we arrived at the training ground, Flu was already getting ready.

Shirone opened her eyes wide. He overslept, but it was definitely time for the flu to be at work.

"uh? What happened?"

"Did you get a good night's sleep?"

Fleur confirmed Shirone's condition.

"yes. I'm dying of annoyance from sleeping too much. But what about work here?"

"I took a vacation. For the next three days, I will focus on watching you."

"ah… … ."

Shirone's eyes filled with water.

To use the vacation, which is the sweetest thing for office workers, for the training of juniors. Just today, she looked like an angel.

"Seniors… … ."

Seeing Shirone approaching with a strange expression, Fleur shrunk her neck like Zara and held out her hand.

"What, what, those eyes! go away! Gross!"

As Shirone continued to approach, she hurriedly backed away, unable to bear to touch her body. She said, and only after she made sure that Shirone stopped.

"Anyway, since I've come this far, I must see you succeed. So let's do it right."

Shirone also had a serious face.

"Yes, thank you!"

The training that lasted until midnight was extended into the next morning with the power of the sleeping capsule.

We fixed numerous errors in the algorithm last night, but we still have a long way to go.

"Once you have the seeker equipped. Then, let's do fusion properly this time. can you do it?"

"Yes, I will try."

Shirone, who warmed up her mind with a sequence of numbers, entered the Spirit Zone.

My eyes widened as the sequence in my head accelerated rapidly.

'Homing Photon Cannon!'

Eight Photon Cannons were born around Shirone. A pale, beautiful orb of light.

If there was a difference from before, it was that a red dot was embedded in the center of the sphere.

It was a laser pointer and seeker.

"Fusion is a success. This time, the target aiming algorithm."

Shirone, who was manipulating the Seeker according to Fleur's instructions, said with a puzzled expression.

"Uh, there… … What about the target?"

Fleur's palms collided.

"Oh right! Where should the experimental drone be?"

Flew rummaged through the box of supplies in the corner of the training ground. Then he turned his head as if he had a good idea.

"No, don't do that, I'll take it myself."

After moving along the wall near the box, she stood with her back to the eastern wall.

"Senior?"

"huh. You don't have time anyway. Let's skip the trifles."

Even Shirone thought it was effective.

After aiming the flue with the spirit zone, the seeker aimed the flue according to the algorithm.

Eight laser points were buried here and there on her body.

Flew gulped at the orbs floating ahead.

The feeling that the seekers in the center of the photon cannon were staring at him like the eyes of an emotionless monster was truly the worst.

'this… … It's much scarier than I thought.'

As she leaned slowly, the eight laser points moved simultaneously to follow her.

When I straightened my back again, the Seekers turned around without a doubt. I got a little goosebumps.

'It's just a quick magic. Are you tracking me?'

Said Shirone, who had finished her preparations.

"Senior, let's begin… … ."

"wait for a sec."

Fleur held out her hand. Shirone, who hastily stopped her magic, looked at her blankly.

She cleared her throat and quietly averted her gaze.

"I don't think this is a bit. Let's just do it with drones."

—————————————

===============================

Chapter - 370 - Special Training (5) 1.txt

===============================

[370] Special Training (5)

Flew rummaged through the box again and pulled out the heavy drone with both hands.

As it flies with magnetic force coordinated with the training ground, the change in trajectory is extreme, so it is suitable for induction experiments.

"I'll do it in the first step. Get used to your senses."

Shirone pointed a laser pointer at the drone. When Flew flipped the switch, the drone vibrated, released his hand, and flew into the air.

A laser pointer moved along the drone's trajectory. And at one point, all 8 of them popped out.

It was slower than the existing Photon Cannon, but as expected, the photon-type magic was a speed that could not be ignored.

Shirone anxiously observed the homing photon cannon.

As the drone wriggled past the wall, the eight photon cannons simultaneously curved and hit the target.

A series of explosions erupted, and a drone protruded through the smoke and rolled across the floor.

"done! Success!"

He couldn't believe it was the magic he had cast.

the light is shining

I even felt the thrill when the photon cannon took a sharp curve in front of the wall.

Flu didn't think this was bad either.

"A good start. But it's not in the actual stage yet. If it's a Tier 1 drone, it's enough to hit it with a photon cannon. Let's set the acceptance criteria with that. Hit the drones that are difficult to catch with the photon cannon with the homing photon cannon."

"yes! I will definitely make it!"

After succeeding in the first experiment, Shirone's heart burned like never before.

The difficulty level went up step by step, and finally it was a day before leaving the Magic Association.

Before the final evaluation, Shirone's sequence ceremony was moving at the highest speed ever.

Flu, waiting with a drone, also showed a nervous expression as much as he invested his passion.

"Are you ready? It's a level 7 mod. Highest limit trajectory 27 degrees. This is the movement of a professional-level wizard."

"yes. It has to be at that level to be able to use it in practice. I am ready."

Shirone launched the homing photon cannon more skillfully than before. Without a doubt, eight laser pointers were aimed at the drone.

The algorithm has been refined so that the aiming point is now concentrated on a single point.

"It begins."

As soon as Flew hit the switch, he let go of his drone and backed away.

A lump of metal that caused a strong earthquake flew lightly and flexibly through the air.

The trajectory driven by magnetic force was certainly unfamiliar to human eyes accustomed to gravity. However, the homing photon cannon vibrating around Shirone continued to catch the drone until the end, turning its red eyes non-stop.

'let's go! It ends here!'

The eight homing photon cannons that left Shirone's side chased after the drones. Then, as the drone turned almost backwards, it took a rough curve and sprinted in the reverse direction.

A total of 9 flying objects were roaming all over the wide training ground, but Shirone was just looking straight ahead.

A chase and chase battle took place for 3 seconds.

In terms of speed, the photon cannon is fast, but the drone was not caught by the strategy of shortening the reach by using rapid drift.

However, the seeker did not miss the drone until the end, and the distance finally began to decrease.

The lead photon cannon hit the drone, and the drone bounced to the ground with a bang.

Then, all the remaining 7 Photon Cannons plummeted to the ground, continuously bombarding the rolling drones.

Kwa-kwa-kwa! Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!

Flew shouted, eyes wide.

"wow! really tired… … ! No, great!"

Accuracy to chase even drones that were thrown off the impact. Moreover, its power was strong enough to crush hard metal.

It wasn't to the extent that it would be eaten in real combat, but if it was unknowingly attacked, it would be a massacre.

It was the same for Shirone that the current result was unbelievable.

'The magic is… … There is no end.'

Shirone, who finally realized the reality, looked back at Fleur with emotion.

For a while, the two people's eyes collided, and without saying who came first, they ran and hugged each other and ran around.

"success! Success, senior!"

"good job! If I failed, I would have been really embarrassed! I am finally free too!"

The shouts of the two who lost their reason in excitement echoed in the training ground. Only one dented drone was staring at them pathetically.

* * *

The last night of the Magic Association has arrived.

Shirone received Fleur's call and headed to the waiting room on the first floor.

The unoccupied hallway felt lonely in contrast to the crowded atmosphere in broad daylight.

"But why are you in the waiting room? You can see it at the dorm."

At the end of the corridor at the back of the lobby on the first floor, light was leaking through a crack in the door. The darkness was silent, and no human voice could be heard.

"hello?"

When Shirone opened the door and showed her face, the paper firecracker exploded.

When I stepped back in surprise, the door opened and I saw four smiling faces.

"Congratulations, Shirone!"

"Uh, huh?"

A cake was prepared in the middle of the waiting room, and Fleur, Gando, Isabelle, and Gangnan were guarding the table.

Fleur lit a candle by flicking her fingers. And he waved his hand as if to come in.

"What are you doing? Come quickly and blow."

Shirone moved as if possessed by a ghost.

"Hey, what day is it today?"

"It's the day. The day you completed your Magic Association field trip. now! Do it quickly."

People clapped as Shirone blew out the candles.

Completed the Magic Association Tour. It's quite plausible to hear, but the more I think about it, the more my face gets hotter.

"thank you. But it's nothing special to visit."

Isabelle said as she ran a hand through her straight hair.

I'd always seen a neat appearance during work, so the loose hair approached me much more bewitching.

"Still, the name is the Magic Association, but we can't just send a field trip student for the longest period of time. I heard that the training ended well. I heard it was cool when I heard about the flu. congratulations."

Flu added one more meaning.

"And you are nineteen too. You can think of it instead of a birthday."

"Oh right!"

I didn't even know that the sun had changed because I was crazy about training. A lot of things that happened last year have been compressed into a lump of emotion. It was a much bigger mass than I had ever felt in my entire life.

Kang Nan, who was standing at a distance, held out a small box over Isabelle's shoulder.

"Congratulations, Shirone. This is a gift prepared by the Association."

"Oh, thank you. But what is it?"

There is a certain relationship with the people here now, but there is no reason for the association to care about the visiting students. Sensing Gaold's presence, Shirone was cautious as to whether some foreshadowing was hidden.

"It's just a gift. open it."

When the box was opened, it contained a shiny silver signet ring. It was about 3 cm wide and had a magic circle engraved in the center.

"uh? Isn't this Kubrick?"

At Fleur's words, Shirone turned her head.

"Kubrick?"

"A two-dimensional ring. All association employees have one. Do you know what a two-dimensional ring is?"

"No, I don't know."

Since she was a Shirone who grew up quickly, she knew little about magic tools.

"It's a ring that stores things with scale magic. They are also sold at the Alchemy Chamber, but they are quite expensive. Besides, the one given by the association has a more precise encryption system than a normal Kubrick, so it's fine."

A ring that stores things in the subspace will, of course, be expensive.

But what Shirone liked the most was the seal of the Tormia Magic Association engraved on the inside of the ring.

No matter how expensive Kubrick was, the seal of the association was not something that could be bought with money.

Isabelle took over the ring and put it on Shirone's ring finger.

"The principle is the same as other magical weapons. It reacts to the Spirit Zone. Flew, here's the power controller… … ."

Flew went out into the hallway and shut off the magic control in the waiting room where they were.

It was a request from the head of the magic library, the captain of the guard allowed it, and the chief secretary tolerated it, so there was no problem.

Upon Fleur's return, Shirone entered the Spirit Zone.

A unique magic that had never been felt before came through synesthesia. As he focused his attention there, letters appeared in front of him.

"User registration? Yes or no?"

When Shirone looked around as if asking to see them together, everyone put on their smiles.

"Hey, this… … ."

Flew said with a convex grin.

"Does the letter appear? that only you can see It spreads to the retina through brain waves."

Shirone remembered the drone given to Tess from heaven.

It must have been a technique similar to projecting a view from the sky onto her retinas.

When the registration was finished, a circle with slots divided into 7 equal parts appeared like a pie. The slots were the same size, and the rim of the topmost slot was glowing red.

Even knowing that no one else could see it, Shirone pointed to the slot.

"Are things going to be put here?"

Isabelle said.

"that's right. Based on gravity here, it can load up to 45 kilograms in total. If you put 45 kilograms in one slot, the remaining six slots can't contain anything."

"Wow, 45 kg?"

A decent amount of armaments was just the amount of loading that went in. In addition, it can reduce the weight of food even when traveling long distances, so it is a convenient tool.

"Let's practice. First, pick out the items you want to load."

"Oh, then this… … ."

Shirone took out Armand from her waist.

Wearing a sword as a commoner was also a concern, but as a wizard, it was uncomfortable to move around with metal attachments.

"good. I'll teach you how. No need to be nervous. Because it's so easy, like the four ways."

I laughed out loud when I said that the method was easy, but I thought it was the standard for a 3rd-class wizard and passed on.

"Kubrick distinguishes things with perception among the mind. It's the core concept of eating out. Kubrick also separates the sword from the world because he knows that the sword you are holding is the finished product. Therefore, we cannot load only part of the sword."

"Because I don't recognize it as a finished product."

"answer. Next is loading and unloading. It's simple. Think of putting a ring on an object. When thoughts change, the nature of the Spirit Zone also changes minutely, and Kubrick works by recognizing the minute differences. So creatures cannot be loaded. Even the spirit of an insignificant creature changes the Spirit Zone. In other words, from Kubrick's point of view, it is a foreign substance."

Shirone nodded, admiring Kubrick's sensitivity.

"Then I will try."

As I grabbed Armand and recalled loading, the sword magically disappeared.

I could see Armand, whose three-dimensional effect had disappeared, stored in Kubrick's slot.

'Shipping this time.'

When Armand appeared in front of my palm, I reflexively grabbed the handle.

Having fun, Shirone experimented with the same function dozens of times. After getting used to it to a certain extent, he clearly realized what kind of object it was.

Fleur added an explanation.

"You can upgrade the weight by going to the fairly large alchemy box in the city. Up to 100 kg of loading weight is about 200 gold per kg. After that, the unit price is much higher, and when the loading weight exceeds 400 kg, it exceeds 100 million units."

"Wow, that's amazing."

The price, as well as the weight, was beyond imagination. If it was 400 kg, it would be a little exaggerated, and it would be like walking around with all of your household items on your fingers.

"That means there is a lot of demand. Of course, it is technically difficult to augment. The current load capacity limit should be around 800 kilograms. It's an item that is unlikely to have one in the kingdom."

Shirone was just happy. He liked the ring he was wearing the most, whether it was 800 kg or not.

It was Kubrick with the seal of the Magic Association.

Gando said.

"No matter how comfortable it is, it's best not to put important items in it unless you are going on a trip."

"Why? If something goes missing… … ."

Gangnan shook his head.

"no. Because it can be stolen. Of course, the Kubrick produced by the association has a complex cryptographic system, so the risk of extraction is low. But anyone can cut off a finger."

Shirone wrapped the ring without realizing it.

"Yes, I will be sure to shoot."

"There is no need for that. If it's a dangerous situation, just throw it away or give it away. Kubrick is not an object, and you can get it on the market."

It was an advice that I could give because Kang Nan, the second-in-command of the Magic Association.

"Anyway, that's what it is. To become a full-time wizard, you need to know how to handle this."

Shirone heard Gaold's voice at Gangnan's last words.

If you go to heaven, Kubrick will be a must. From the important to the trivial, it was an unspoken pressure to be fully prepared.

"Yes, I will definitely become a wizard."

Shirone raised the hand holding the Kubrick. Everyone was laughing through her fingers.

[371] Steel Gate (1)

It was the opening day of the magic school.

Shirone woke up early in the morning and folded the blankets and packed her things.

Kubrick was also handy in real life. Miscellaneous items were distributed among 6 slots, and Armand was placed in a separate slot. It was to prepare for an emergency.

When I left the room and went down the stairs, Olina greeted me with a smile.

"Are you ready? Hey, what about the bag?"

"I got it. It is here."

Shirone held out her palm to show the ring.

Olina, staring at her son's mischievous face, turned away without asking.

It was she who realized that her son was a wizard after the Kazura incident.

"Come quickly and eat. I will be late."

Shirone stared at Olina's back for a long time. She was her own mother, the only one she was in the world.

"I love you, mom. And thank you."

As Shirone hugged her waist, Olina's hand stopped.

Of course, at home, he is the only child with a lot of aegyo. But the mother's sense of smell sensed the heavy fate in her son's voice.

'What's going on this time…' … . God, please protect this child.'

After recovering her smile, Olina turned around and stabbed Shirone in the head.

"This."

"ouch!"

"It's all grown up and it's childish. And don't touch her lady belly."

After washing his face, Vincent said while wiping his face with a towel.

"Well then! I can never yield to my mother, Shirone. So, you too, hurry up and go to school, Amy… … !"

"Don't mess around and have a meal."

"yes."

Vincent sat down at the table with the steps of a soldier. Shirone's laughter lit up the kitchen. I hoped that the present happiness would continue forever.

* * *

When I arrived at the school in the Ogent family's carriage, the front gate was crowded with people.

It was a new semester, and the parents were nagging at eye level with the immature children.

When a voice announced that the entrance ceremony would begin, countless students overtook Shirone.

But Shirone was full of composure. Since the senior class event was held at 2:00 PM at the steel gate, and the dorm had already moved, I was thinking of going to the study group and spending time with my friends.

"hi?"

Hearing Amy's voice, Shirone smiled and turned her head. But soon her happy expression disappeared and her eyes widened.

"Uh, uh uh?"

"Why are you so surprised? Like a red-haired girl seeing you for the first time."

Amy's red hair was cut above her shoulders. Her hair slightly covered her cheeks, and her bangs, trimmed in an asymmetrical straight, made her look like a completely different person beyond her unfamiliarity.

Amy twitched her lips as if holding back a laugh, and ran a hand through her hair.

"How do I look?"

"uh? that is… … Are you pretty?"

Embarrassedly, she slapped Shirone on the shoulder, stampeding her feet, and laughed.

"What is it? Do you feel that there is something different about your resolution besides your appearance?"

"Ah, yes. How can I say, a little sharper feeling?"

"Hmm, is it?"

Amy sat in her own thoughts with a satisfied face, then came back and asked.

"How was it anyway? Did you finish your job well at the Association?"

"huh. I asked about heaven and did some field trips."

Shirone evaded it as long as it did not contain lies. He couldn't reveal even a secret that even his best friend in the world could not afford.

Amy smiled subtly, but didn't ask anything.

After two months of meeting her, her confidence was definitely up.

"It looks good on you, but why did you cut your hair?"

"just. It's annoying to train, and I want to start anew."

Amy is a promising graduate candidate who rose to 5th place in the graduating class last year.

As the key is to get out of the 2nd year jinx, it seemed that they had made a strategy to start from the beginning.

"Are you here early anyway? The event starts at 2:00. Are you going to meet the stupid duo?"

"huh. I'm going to meet Eruki and Nade and go up together. you?"

Amy pointed with her thumb at an uphill road in the distance.

"I am a steel door. You should be ready to meet. Oh right. Just say 'I' later."

"me?"

When Shirone pointed at herself and asked, Amy shook her head.

"No, not you, but me. Understand? It's okay if it's me unconditionally."

"What does that mean?"

"Huh, I know it when I see it at an event. You will be very grateful to me. Then see you at the steel gate at 2:00."

Amy wrinkled her nose, smiled, and turned around. As much as her hair style has changed, her personality seems to have become brighter than before, but Shirone still hasn't adjusted.

Amy put her hands behind her back, turned around and spoke.

"Welcome to Hell."

"haha! Yes, thank you very much."

Amy giggled at what was so exciting and walked away.

A smile appeared on Shirone's lips as he turned around shaking his head as if he couldn't stop it.

'Yeah, I'm finally standing in the same place.'

I thought I knew why Amy was in a good mood.

* * *

Supernatural Psychic Research Society.

Eruki looked at the blackboard full of formulas and was lost in thought.

I finally entered my graduating class. But to be honest, I just happened to come this far.

'Are you going to be a wizard? I?'

It is a place where you can come whenever you want. At least Eruki thought so.

What made him stagnant was the fear of how his monstrous brain would be used in the world.

'In the end, I came all the way here following Shirone.'

It wasn't a bad feeling. The reason why he can stay calm even when the graduation exam is one year away is probably because he has a huge control device called Shirone installed in his brain.

"Yes, Shirone is a wizard by profession. Are you preparing well?"

To be honest, Shirone has nothing to worry about. As long as I have a firm goal, I will never stop.

'On the other hand, Nade… … .'

It's very likely that he didn't do anything this time either.

He'll probably be stuck in a warehouse and come back from making strange contraptions all day.

It's unfortunate, but I can't help it. Nade didn't want to be a wizard.

'Has it been six years already?'

Six years ago, Eruki was expelled from the Royal Magic School and transferred to Alpheas Magic School.

Of course, his personality was still eccentric, so no one wanted to hang out with him.

Eruki also had no interest in friendship. The only person who caught his eye was Nade.

A boy who always sits at the back of the classroom and stares at the blackboard with bloody eyes.

'Hmm, he's an unusual guy.'

Eruki, who had been watching Nade for several days, asked his classmates with his characteristic brazenness.

"Nade? I don't know either. don't speak The grades seem to be coming out just fine."

"I hate Nade. Should I say gloomy? It seems like a pervert."

"Why are you curious about Nade? You'd better not touch it. Your eyes are so fierce."

Eruki could roughly guess what Nade's school life was like.

One day after a few days like that, Nade came to Eruki's seat. Her eyes were as cold as ice.

Eruki calmly raised his hand.

"hi? what's the matter?"

"Are you the one who goes after me?"

How to get stepped on if your tail is long. When rumors spread that Eruki had been asking about Nade, the person in question had come directly.

"Research? Why am I examining your ass?"

A foot and a laugh erupted from somewhere. At the same time, Nade's fist hit Eruki's chin.

Eruki, who fell at the same time as the chair, fell to the floor and couldn't move.

"Ask again. Are you the one who goes after me?"

"Two."

Eruki spat bloody saliva and slowly stood up.

But it's a deception tactic. He rushed right in and attempted to poke the eye with two fingers.

"Oh!"

Eruki's arms stretched out. His fingers barely stopped in front of Nade's eyes as he leaned back.

Even so, Nade's expression did not change.

"… … ."

With his arms drawn back, Eruki took a pose imitating a snake and prepared to fight.

The atmosphere rapidly cooled, and the faces of the lower class children turned pale.

"Whoa."

Nade, who looked at Eruki's ridiculous posture, let out a long breath.

I don't know how this idiot got into magic school, but it was best not to deal with it.

"I warn you, don't pay attention to me again. I really won't let you go then."

"Nope? Why should I listen to you?"

A ferocious energy flashed in Nade's eyes.

"you… … really die."

"know. I am human too, so someday I will die. Are you stupid?"

Nade heard his reason break. The reason why he didn't throw his fist right now was because he could kill Eruki.

"Hey, see me after class. Come out where I said."

"Ohhh, is this the after-school duel we've only heard about? but are you okay? I'm pretty strong."

Nade turned around without even replying.

If you don't get scared and come out, that's it.

But if you come out there… … Eruki will not be able to attend school from tomorrow.

"Ah, my fist is so spicy."

Raising a chair, Eruki sat down and kissed his lips.

Class started, but Nade did not come.

The weather was gloomy, and by the end of class gray clouds were covering the sky.

Eruki caressed his swollen cheeks and looked at the sky outside the window.

'It's going to rain.'

Lightning flashed, and a belated thunderclap tore the world apart.

In the blinding rain, electric shocks and explosions were biting each other's tails without giving them a chance to breathe.

"haha."

Eruki lowered his chin and let out a rough breath. The raindrops that beat on the top of his head soon became hot, and raindrops trickled down his drenched hair.

Only the eyes were alive. His focus was still keenly piercing the darkness in the rain.

Nade's silhouette was visible through the curtain of heavy rain.

Every time the bolts wriggled like eels, parts of the silhouette regained color, but the monster-like face I saw at first was never revealed.

'This is a bit serious.'

Eruki had to admit that his calculations were wrong.

I thought he was no ordinary guy, and he really was. But in this case, even beyond the normal range, it went too far.

Eruki's voice penetrated the rain.

"you… … How the hell did you become 'that way'?"

Nade approached, raising the sound of splashing water. In the place where the terrible expression was erased, only the feeling of not being able to do it remained.

"What the hell is it? Why are you interested in me?"

"It's not interest, it's exploration. I've been looking for something lately."

"Looking for it? what?"

"As you can see, I am a genius. He's a really awesome genius. Depending on how I use my ability, it could be disastrous. Maybe kill a lot of people. So I need someone who can control me."

Nade didn't laugh at it or take it seriously.

"Killing a lot of people?"

"If it were you, you would know. If it's my ability, it's possible enough."

"That's ridiculous."

Nade said with cold eyes.

"you. Have you ever killed someone?"

A huge clap of thunder shook the world.

Eruki turned away from the blackboard with a bitter smile.

The opponent who fought until the brink of death has now become an irreplaceable friend.

Of course, Nade's personality became milder after the incident at the time and a little more time later.

But at least it was from then that he accepted Eruki as a friend.

"Hey, comrade. How long is this reunion?"

Nade kicked in the door, straightened up and saluted. Recalling the memory of six years ago, Eruki burst into laughter.

(end of volume 15)

[372] Steel Gate (1)

"Are you here?"

As soon as Nade threw his bag, he jumped onto the sofa.

"Oh, I am tired. The road from the middle to the south is too rough."

"I am from the capital."

"Could I have come by car? I came here while starving and having to wait in the bathroom. If it was the carriage of the Mercodyne family, it would have been cheap while eating."

"Or eat while cheap."

"Enough! How are you anyway? Couldn't it be that they betrayed you and did special training?"

Eruki did not deny it.

"Well, now that we've come this far, shouldn't I graduate too?"

Nade jumped up from the sofa.

"Really? Damn, what am I to do with you? what kind of magic Is it greater than cancellation?"

"It's still at the omnipotent level, so it's not the stage to call it magic. After all, you only have to complete it before the graduation exam. I'll tell you when the desired results come out."

Every senior has a plan to keep their body rhythms at their peak on test day.

Just looking at Amy's case, I knew that no matter what the process was, the result was everything.

"Sheesh, that's fine. I played a lot during vacation."

Eruki looked back at Nade with a bitter look. Contrary to what she said, she wasn't particularly sad.

Even after entering her senior year, it was clear that she was still not interested in wizards.

"But you… … ."

"huh? what?"

Eruki shook his head and swallowed his words.

"No, nothing."

"Sheesh! It's bland."

The door that had been open opened more violently than before, and Shirone came in.

A smile bloomed on his face as he reunited with his good friends.

"Hey! Guys, what the hell is this smell!"

But the good mood was short-lived, and he immediately covered his nose and frowned.

The floor of the study group was littered with garbage. How the hell do those kids put up with this smell?

Nade and Eruki looked back at each other and giggled.

"sorry. It's been a while since I sprayed perfume. Was it that good?"

"shut up! Clean up first!"

The three of them each took a cleaning tool and started cleaning.

By the time the place that looked like a large garbage warehouse was almost clean, the time for the event was approaching.

Nade, who was lying on the sofa exhausted, looked up at the ceiling and asked.

"What time is it?"

"1 o'clock. I must prepare soon."

Suddenly realizing, Shirone stood up from the sofa.

"right! I didn't come to conquer!"

"I came to you in the morning. Even you and Nade's."

Nade gave a thumbs up.

"Because it's thorough as well. But do I have to wear it? I really hate wearing them."

Conquest is a school uniform for magic schools, and it is forbidden to wear it except for special events, but students are reluctant to wear it even once a year because it is ridiculous.

"It's not a graduation ceremony, it's a conquest call for an entrance ceremony. I'd rather see myself applying hemorrhoids than wearing that and looking in the mirror."

Shirone turned to Nade and asked.

"Are you hemorrhoids?"

"That's what it says! Let's get ready anyway. Hemorrhoids, no, where is my conquest?"

Eruki pointed to the corner. Three boxes were erected like a tower.

As each of them held a box with their name on it and unfolded their uniform, the white background with a line along the shoulder line fluttered like a ghost.

Wearing it will make you look like a wizard, but wearing a mask in a crowded place will be good for your mental health.

"Ugh, wearing this to meet Class Two kids? they don't wear Aren't we being made fun of?"

"I can't. Because that is the rule."

Eruki was pretty good. He thought that it was enough to cover important parts of the clothes. Like the head, eyes, or heart.

Wearing uniforms over their clothes, the three stood side by side in front of the mirror. It was as if three mushy liquid monsters were standing there.

However, unlike the first thought, the expression was pious.

"Will we ever get a chance to wear this again?"

In the busy senior year schedule, there are few days to wear a uniform. In the end, it meant that if you failed the graduation exam, today would be the last time you would see yourself covered in soup.

Eruki said while flapping his sleeves longer than his arms.

"It won't be easy. After all, we lack information."

Nade looked back in surprise.

"okay? I think you and Shirone will pass the exam well enough?"

"It's a personal feeling, anyway, mathematically it's 1/3. If there are Shirone, Dante, and Amy, two of them will be eliminated. If Shirone passes, Dante and Amy cannot graduate."

Nade couldn't imagine their elimination in his head.

"Ah, would you? All three of them might pass."

"That's because you've known three people. Originally, human beings think that the information they have is the most accurate. But when that happens, he has no one to drop out of. Even with a simple average, there are only 3.3 people per class. And besides, we're the lowest class three in our senior year."

Nade didn't say anything.

Literally the pinnacle of magic school. The gap in skill was narrower than any other class, and it was a group that no one even thought about being eliminated.

Shirone said while shaking the wrinkles of her gown.

"If you want everyone to pass, you don't need probabilities. Let's go with the mindset of starting from the beginning."

Shirone's words were correct.

All the courses taken while going through the low-level class to the advanced class are initialized. It was a real sword fight with 30 people ahead of the final gateway to becoming a wizard.

* * *

With 20 minutes left for the graduating class event, 10 students were walking from different paths toward Central Park.

Without exception, they wore uniforms and their eyes were more intense than usual.

The first to arrive, Shirone and the others greeted the classmates who will compete for the next year.

Students who are ranked within the top 10 in the overall score of practical, theoretical, and performance evaluations.

It felt like even the air was heavy with their aura coming from all directions.

Shirone (ranked 3rd overall in the advanced class) looked back on the road to the east.

Canis (ranked 6th in the advanced class) and Arin (ranked 7th in the advanced class) were walking side by side.

The two of them faced each other when the Arcanes attacked, and they fought together in Heaven. Shirone knew better than anyone that their skills were not easy.

Canis met Shirone's eyes but turned away without speaking.

He already knew that there was no way that the 10 people who would be gathered here would pass the exam by arming their shoulders side by side.

Arin came in place of Canis.

"Hello Shirone?"

"Yes, bye. Did you have a good vacation?"

"Just what… … ."

Arin smiled shyly.

I kept my mouth shut, remembering Canis' words that I would be surprised to find out what they had accomplished during this vacation, but that I should never divulge it.

"Hey, are you together already? Aren't you nervous?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Shirone turned around.

On the southern road, Boyle (ranking 8th in the advanced class) and Pandora (ranking 9th in the advanced class) were walking side by side.

Pandora, who once gave a fart to Dante's party, but eventually got out of the way and seemed to hang out with Boyle again. Of course, we quarrel every time we meet, but it seems that we cannot ignore the affection we have had together since childhood.

'Boyle of Summoning Magic, Pandora of Fragrance Magic.'

Boyle had a history of losing to Dante, but his summoning magic was not at a level to be ignored.

Also, it would be quite difficult to tactically deal with Pandora's scent magic.

"Shirone, there you go."

Nade pointed the way west.

Dante (ranked first in the advanced class) was at the head, followed by Closer and Sabina.

Seeing Dante roll up the sleeves of his conquest and secure them with pins, Shirone burst out laughing.

I felt it at the old castle site, but the desire to stand out seemed to be innate.

But for today, I couldn't help but pay more attention to Closer and Sabina.

As much as I heard that he had undergone hell training under the guidance of Vice Principal Olivia during the vacation, his eyes were clearly different.

Closer, who can freely form rocks, and Sabina, who scatters dozens of blow-type sharp winds per second.

At least you have to think that you are much stronger than in the 2,000 battles.

"huh? Why are the faces like that? It's a good day. Have a little laugh."

Boyle said with a displeased look on his face as Dante raised his hand and walked away.

"What are you wearing? Don't you know that uniforms have to be worn according to the rules?"

Dante studied Boyle's style before answering. As before, his hair was oiled and parted, and the livery was ironed and sharpened.

"you… … Anyway, isn't it a bit harsh to catch each other? If you rub it, you will bleed."

"How is this? neat and nice If you dress like that, your score may be lowered."

"How about cutting it down a bit? All I have to do is pass the graduation exam anyway."

While Dante and Boyle were bickering about fashion, Closer and Sabina also went to their respective errands.

The person Closer (ranked 4th in the advanced class overall score) was grinding his teeth the most was definitely Eruki (ranked 2nd in the overall score in the advanced class).

"It's finally here, when will we meet again? Be nervous. Maybe every day is like hell."

"If you don't know, I don't think you need to tell me. Are you sure you want me to teach you?"

"This child… … !"

Closer's eyes were filled with life. It was the first time in my life that a human being called so much with a fist.

Unlike the bloody atmosphere of the two, a subtle air current flowed on the other side.

Sabina (ranked 5th in the advanced class) thought over and over again, and eventually spoke to Nade (ranked 10th in the advanced class).

"hi? long time no see."

"Uh, yes."

Nade's nonchalant attitude upset Sabina. No, I don't know.

I've dated numerous men in Baska, the capital, but the level of thrill was different from that.

'You must have a broken heart. Or I'm perverted.'

In any case, he couldn't retreat like this unless he could stop Nade from staring at him.

"Conquest too… … It suits you well."

But all that came back was Nade's bitter smile.

To him, who had no intention of becoming a wizard, saying that conquest suited him only hurt.

Pandora, who was watching the scene from afar, snorted as if accusing him.

In the past, she had flattered Sabina all over the place, but she was proud that she had nothing to lose after hard training.

'Anyway, it's clever. It's already being designed, isn't it?'

When Sabina was lynched by Nade, Pandora, who spyed on her at the scene, guessed that Nade would be the biggest variable among the 10 people here.

Although they are in 10th place so far, if they show their true colors, the rankings will fluctuate.

"It looks like everyone has gathered now, but let's start slowly. Finish quickly and take this off."

Shirone wasn't the type to step out, and Dante led everyone.

So far, the grade of first place in the overall grade of the advanced class has also played an important role in moving the competitors.

Of course, from the moment you pass through the steel gate, the grades for the advanced classes will lose their meaning.

Class Three students headed to the senior class building.

On the slope of the uphill road, a magnificent steel door stood firm.

Beneath it, I could see the 10 members of Class 2 waiting side by side.

"Hey, juniors! Doesn't it come out quickly? Get completely out of it!"

"Conquest suits you well! Where are you going to the school festival? Fuhahaha!"

Boos that stimulated Class Three erupted.

It was a long tradition, and the pressure was far greater than rumors had told us. However, no one in Class Three has changed their expression.

"joy! The senior is an asshole! From the senior year onwards, everything is the same anyway!"

Boyle gritted his teeth and murmured. He was also hypnotized by himself.

He shook his shoulder, which had developed a closer, and sped up his steps.

"Yes, talk as much as you like, dropouts. I'll cook for you one by one from now on."

Most of the students widened their eyes to avoid being overwhelmed by the momentum, but Dante was just bored.

After watching the reactions of his classmates, he turned his head to the other side and looked at Shirone.

'You're not nervous at all.'

The corner of the mouth slightly raised. His eyes sparkled with passion and excitement.

How could I not be thrilled? It was the scene in my imagination that even came out in my dreams.

The wizard's life that he so much wanted. The final gateway is now ten steps ahead.

My heart pounded and my consciousness became hazy as if I was flying to another world.

"come in! come in and see! Do you think you can graduate? You are just my manure!"

"Hell is here, you children! Your life is over here!"

Shirone bit his molars and clenched his fists.

Wizard. Wizard. You will become a wizard!

'Yes, I'll gladly go into hell or whatever.'

With every step he took, the steel door, the symbol of intelligence, was shaking.
