The next morning.

Almark and Wendy were taking him to the auditorium.

The last day of the sorcery festival.

The main gate has already been opened and many visitors are approaching.

Most of the aim is to sell high-end magic equipment instantly. From what I've heard, there's also a slap sale of magic equipment that was sold off today on the last day.

"Why don't we go shopping?"

Nelson said that during yesterday's launch and Norish laughed.

"Even if I say I beat it, the original price is a bit different. We can't buy a penny that collects all the money in our class."

"Fuck you, I know. I'm just kidding."

Nelson objected in vain, which meant that Almark and his junior college students would be able to make magic equipment worth that much as they advanced to higher education.

That's not a long way off. Only a few years later.

A few years later, magicians and merchants from all over the world come looking for the magic tools that Al Marks made.

Isn't that amazing?

Hey, Wendy.

As he approached the auditorium, Almark asked Wendy.

"You brought me a magical cloth when I was hunting herbs at night."

Oh, yeah.

Wendy nods.

"It's the cloth you used to fly the radomers on your feet."

"Yes, it is."

Almark nodded.

For example, I wonder if magic equipment can be sold.

Hmm.

Wendy leans her neck.

"I prepared it for use, so I don't think it will be easy for others to use it, and after two days, it will lose its effect and become just a cloth. It's hard to sell."

I knew it. It's hard. "

"Looks like there's a lot of that kind of magic stuff out there."

Wendy smiles at Almark with a sad face.

"That's why the Academy's magic tools are reliable and valuable."

I see.

The reliability that it is a sure magical instrument made by students at Nork Magic Academy.

Is that why so many people come to the magic festival?

And then...

"That's why so many people watched our play."

Yes, it is.

Wendy smiles.

"I can say that."

"Thank you to the seniors in high school."

"Yes, even for senior graduates who have been building trust in the academy for many years."

In Wendy's words, Almark remembers Illmis and Rhinel.

I wonder if they used to sell magic equipment side by side.

Wendy looked strangely at Almark, who was silent, and shouted down.

"Is Radmar going to be okay today?"

Almark is brought back to reality by the words.

"Fita and the others said it was getting better."

"It's okay."

Almark nodded.

When I think of Radmar, who was being taught at Illmis' place, nature spills a smile.

"Radmar is much tougher than we thought. I'm sure it's growing again."

"If Almark says so."

Wendy smiled as if she had been struck by Almark's smile.

I'm sure you'll be fine.

The auditorium was still full today.

Almark and Wendy sit side by side slightly behind the student seat.

The number of students is somewhat small today.

I can't see Morgan or Nelson.

Yesterday, I was completely out of time to apologize for Nelson's injuries due to an incident with Morphis and the others.

I was going to apologize again in the auditorium today.

"Hey Wendy. How many students are there?"

Wendy answered with no particular surprise to Almark's strange face.

"This happens every year. Look, it's been the same act for three days in the morning."

Oh, I see.

Almark is convinced.

It is true that first- and second-year performances are the same every day. You'll like coming to see it in three days.

"I see, so there's no one here. You're coming from an afternoon play."

"Yesterday, we were all in and out of each other's rooms after the launch. I'm just relaxing in the dorm in the morning."

Wendy said that and looked at Almark with great care.

"I'm sorry, did Almark want to relax in the dorm?

"No way."

Almark shakes his head.

"Actually, I haven't seen a first-year chorus. If you don't see it, Eldo and Sicily will get angry."

Good, then.

Wendy smiles reassuringly.

"To tell the truth, I couldn't really focus on the stage on my first day either. Look, Almark told me to talk about it later."

"Ahh....."

Almark remembers how he felt the day before yesterday when he saw Wendy saying so shyly.

I was just thinking about how to talk to Wendy.

And I was in the infirmary yesterday morning.

I think we can watch the show with fresh feelings today.

Even so, there aren't many.

When Almark looked around, only Curime and Seraha could see his face in pairs in three years.

Those two were at the launch yesterday, and I feel like we're going to see them together tomorrow.

Selah finished her role as a witch and really behaved brightly as if her shoulders were down.

And no one came except Almark.

Wallis isn't here, either.

Wendy laughs and nods when Almark says this unexpectedly.

"Wallis always does. I'm an honorary student, but I'm not serious. I'll cut everything I thought I didn't need."

I see.

Almark nodded.

"More than that, I noticed."

Wendy whispers.

"One pair of kids are twitching, but it looks like none of them are here."

Huh?

Almark looks around again.

The first and second graders, who make up the majority of the students, play in the morning.

Among them, the figure of the third-grade students is a little bumpy, but if you ask me, it certainly doesn't seem that there are three groups of students.

"When I was waiting for Almark in front of the dorm, I intercepted that three kids were coming out, but nobody came to the auditorium."

"That means..."

"Yeah."

Wendy nods with a strange face.

I'm practicing somewhere. It's the actual day.

"What happens to the three plays?"

Almark put his arms together.

"Fun, scary."

"Am I stronger afraid?"

Wendy said.

"You saw three kids come home yesterday, didn't you?

"Yeah, I saw it."

Almark nodded.

"I'm surprised. I'm tired of that Kool-eun."

Yeah, that's true, too.

Wendy saw Almark on the lookout.

"Have you seen Almark? Behind that Koren."

Huh?

Rosphilia.

Wendy said anxiously.

"I was laughing alone. Looks like a lot of fun."
