Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

It's daunting. It looks like we've finished the suppression (the assailants we caught should permanently remove their hair from their heads and sell it to a slave dealer later)

Potentia, who was watching the raids from the rooftops of the girls' dormitories, was divided into two groups (?) When I heard the report from, my shoulder was relieved. It seems that I was relieved to hear that none of the college staff had been harmed.

On the other hand, Millenia, who was also on the roof, was surprised to hear Potentia's words after being surprised by the fire pole rising up towards the outer wall, and she seemed to be surprised twice. Since the raid began, it hadn't taken more than 10 seconds for the Raiders to capture it.

For Millenia, it was an almost instant event. If it hadn't been for Millenia who heard Potentia, it would have been his match pump. Rather, for a moment, Millenia seemed to suspect that Potentia's selfie was a selfie, but she immediately changed her mind that Potentia should not do such a thing.

Therefore, the words from her mouth are not words of suspicion against Potentia--

"Who the hell attacked you..."

It became a question of who the assailant was.

On the other hand, Potentia slipped his mouth for a moment, but immediately changed his mind. There was no judgment as to whether it was right to tell the truth to the millenia.

"... apparently, men with black gear attacked." Can you guess who raided Millenia?

Potentia asks for Millenia's guess without saying she knows or doesn't know.

Then, after a little thought, Millenia says her thoughts.

"I don't know... I just... don't think it's the troops in the capital."

Why is that?

"The fire pole was like intermediate magic, but the Grand Duchy of Restofen does not have an automatic wand that can handle intermediate magic."

Didn't you use intermediate magic without a cane?

“It's not absolutely impossible, but I think the odds are pretty low. Shamefully, the Grand Duchy of Restofen has few powerful wizards, and military personnel and researchers rely on automatic wands. I don't think it would be impossible to use intermediate magic in multiple places like this one, but I don't think it would be realistic to collect all the wizards who can use intermediate magic from all over the Grand Duchy.”

I see. So who else could be the possible culprit?

"... if you are not in this country, you are outside the country." Maybe it's the Emrinza Empire in the south. "

... why is that?

Potentia narrowed her eyes in the darkness and waited for a response from the millenia. It seems that she thought her reasoning was following a good line.

“On the face of it, it looks like we have a good relationship with the Grand Duchy of Restofen, but it is said that the country is jealous of the Grand Duchy of Restofen.”

Jealous?

"Potentia... do you know why the technology of automatic wands is kept out of the gate?"

"... I see. The Automatic Staff is a unique technology of the Grand Duchy of Restophen, and the Emrinza Empire is aiming for the technology of the Automatic Staff."

“That's what they say. Well, I've heard it from people, so I'm not confident. Oh, yes. Please don't tell me I told you what I said."... your grandmother will be mad at you... "

Yeah, of course. "But you're in trouble..." In order for us to live a peaceful student life, we need to ask the raiders to shut up first. ”

Potentia said that and turned his heel back. Millenia asks for his back.

Potato-kun? Are you leaving already?

I have so much more to ask... "Potentia said to the millenia who had written such a second voice.

Yeah, I remembered a few important errands. But don't worry. There shouldn't be any raiders coming to the academy. "

Huh?

"What the hell is Potentia talking about..." The moment Millenia tries to ask--

BOOOOOOO!!

--A gust of wind blows through the rooftop of the dormitory. Because of the strength of the wind, Millenia only closed her eyes for a moment, but when her eyes were opened, there was no Potentia.

It's just...

"... eh... what... is that...?"

Millenia noticed a big anomaly. Specifically, it is empty. The moon floating there was greatly distorted by something huge...
