Almark – Northern Sword, Southern Wand

Almark puts out his right hand.

From underneath, Eurog's muscular hands softly layered and illuminated with a warm light.

Yeah.

Wendy sighed as she peered over Almark's shoulder.

"Great."

His voice trembled.

As he said, there was not a single snake left in Almark's right hand.

Dean's Office.

It was after school on the day I received a Eurog lecture in the lecture hall.

Almark and Wendy were visiting the Academy Headmaster's office to report on the battles they had encountered on Klang Island.

"The snakes are all gone."

Almark said that and looked back at Wendy.

Thank you, Wendy.

Wendy shakes her head silently to weep in her eyes.

"Thank you, Dr. Irmis."

Almark also told Ilmis standing beside Eurog.

"Thank you, Mr. Dean.Thanks to you and everyone, all the snakes have disappeared. ”

"I didn't do anything."

Ilmis said in a calm voice.

“The snake curse has disappeared thanks to the brave battle between you and your friends.”

Dr. Ilmis is right.

The Eurolog nods.

"You've always faced that curse with your friends."Ain and Ficke. Layla. Wendy and Morgen. And finally,

Everyone in the class.

Withdrawing his right hand gently, Almark replied.

“In the end, everyone except Wallis, Layla and Torque.But it seemed like I had three people who weren't there. ”

All of my classmates, including them, taught me something that supported Almark's magic and saved his life.

“Everyone who went to Klang Island fought at the risk of their lives.With the Dark Sorcerer. "

Wendy nodded to the words.

"It was because of us that we came across like that."No one blamed us. ”

"I think so."

The Eurolog nodded.

They're the students we've chosen.

Then, Eurog recommends a chair to the two of them.

"Tell us too."About the battle on Clan Island. "

Yes.

The two sat down and talked about the battle on the beach.

A ghost ship appeared suddenly in the middle of the night.

Fog.

A horde of warriors in the skeleton.

And a dark sorcerer emerged from the sky.

A dark sorcerer other than Rhinel.

When he had finished listening, Eurogue nodded with a thoughtful face.

With a man in a butler's shape who manipulates the remains of a warrior.

Somehow, there was a grudge against the academy.

Wendy says.

I was saying something like, is only the magic of the academy the right magic?

Is only the magic of the academy right?

Eurog raised one eyebrow and shook his white beard, looking at Ilmis.

"That kind of stuff is a lot to hear outside, Dr. Irmis."

Yes.

Irmis nodded.

You guys are learning magic here, so you probably won't feel much about your skin.

Irmis said that and looked at Almark and Wendy.

The magicians from this academy are special to the magicians outside.

Ilmis's expression did not change, and he inherited his words purely.

"You'll know when you graduate, too."The envy and longing of the sorcerers who have learned magic outside of here.And you're going to get jealous. "

"Are you jealous?"

Almark nodded suddenly, and Wendy nodded as if she could think of something.

"Among those who are willing to become sorcerers, there are very few who can enter this academy."And the education and training they receive is completely different from the college and outside. "

If we split up in the next city, our paths would never be crossed again.

In the words of Ilmis, Almark suddenly remembers the splendid sparks that once scattered in front of him.

Margot.

After becoming a witch's disciple, she escaped there and joined the group of travelers.

Speaking of which, she also showed magic in front of the audience by the touch of a graduate of the Nork Academy of Magic.I think the foil will stick to it.

The Nork Magic Academy is a place where only such a chosen person can enter.I don't know what to learn, but it doesn't matter to us.

It was Ayka, the lightweight industrialist, who said that.

"Of course, there are some good magicians who have not left the academy."But in many cases, the difference between college graduates and other magicians is clear. ”

Irmis said.

"And many people ask for the cause of the difference to be the difference in the environment."If only I had studied at this college.That makes me jealous. "

Is there such a thing?

That's what Almark said when he saw Wendy, who smiled awkwardly.

"Sure, I've felt it a little bit, too."I don't think you feel much because you just got in here this year. "

“Jealousy can sometimes increase to the level of hostility.”

Irmis's expression didn't change.

"Besides, the graduates of this college are not all well-behaved people."If you imitate your power, your jealousy will become stronger, deeper, and more hostile to the entire academy beyond the individual. "

Of course, there's a lot of grudges.

The Eurogue took over the story quietly.

"To look back at the graduates of the academy, I dyed my hands on the power of darkness. It's a common story."

I see.

Almark nodded and looked at Wendy.

"Sometimes I feel that kind of gaze."When I went home for vacation or something. "

Almark smiles bitterly at Wendy's words.

"I don't think so." I'm sure I'm not a magician to be jealous of. "

"It's not like that."

Wendy shakes her head.

Your recent magic performance is amazing.

"I can feel it, too."

Almark admitted honestly.

"Thanks to the teacher and everyone."

"The graduation exam is approaching."

Ilmis pinched his mouth.

"If you don't improve, you'll be in trouble."

Yes.

Almark shrugged his shoulders.The Eurog is smiling and the air is only a little soothing.

So the others are safe.

Wendy nodded to Eurog's words.

“Yes, I was slightly injured.”

I see.

Eurolog nods with a stern expression.

"That's good."

“But that wasn't the end, there were still ghost ships left.”

With that in mind, Almark gently hands the rusted sword to Eurog.

"There was another battle."

I wonder if this is the trap Rinel set up.

Eurog grabbed his sword and looked at it.

You're the only one who fought that fight?

“I was the only one on board, but I wasn't alone.”

Almark shakes his head.

"Everyone helped me."

A song from the Northern Heavens that still remains in my ears.

Without it, Angolan spears would really have taken their lives this time.

I see.

The Eurolog narrowed its eyes.

But you were saved by my people.

Yes.

Almark nodded.

My eyes naturally go to my right thigh.

Wendy healed the spear wound with magic.

I suddenly raised my gaze, and my eyes met Wendy staring at me.

Thanks, Wendy.

The two of them smiled at each other and turned their gaze back to Eurog.

I guess the last enemy was a warrior.

Eurogue put her sword on the desk and asked.

Yes.

Almark didn't want to go into too much detail about the battle on board.As if I knew it, Eurog didn't ask for details either.

And after all that was done, this sword was left on the beach.

Yes.

Almark nodded.

"Coins, books, rings, canes."

Eurog said so and looked back at Ilmis.

"Irmis-sensei expected it."

Ilmis bowed his head silently.The expression looked even darker.

“Now, let's get down to business.”

Eurog saw Almark and Wendy's face.

Rhinel, the Dark Mage, did this to us.
