Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Potentia's practical exam ended quietly, the quietest of all entrance exams. Of course, it goes without saying about the results.

The next exam is an interview. When the waltzes were there, High Spears would do the interview by herself.

"Now, test number 1." Potentia, sit there. "

Yes. Thank you very much (Oh? It's a lot different from what you were telling Waltz-sama.)

--Potentia's interviewers weren't just high-speed. It seems that the difficulty level has increased slightly, not only because there is only one person, but also because there are three people.

However, interviewers are not strangers. Of course, the high-speed teacher was Magnea, the dean of the college, and Josephine.

When Potentier stood up to see what kind of questions were coming from those three people, the content of the classic that could be called interviews was flying.

“Now, please introduce yourself.”

An ordinary question that hasn't changed anything in particular. As for Potentia, it was a question that I thought about the content of the response beforehand.

But for him, it was very troubling. Because if you introduce yourself honestly, you won't believe it first. I can't say I'm an airborne battleship about a year old.

Therefore, he speaks of the answers he has prepared in advance.

"My name is Potentia, and I'm going to be 13 this year. Originally from the Republic of Mid-Eden, from the Grand Duchy of Restofen, the country is far east, across the sea. My hobby is reading, and I mainly read alchemy books. My special skill... is to go to bed early and get up early.”

It was Potentia who tried to say that the stunts were to erase the signs, but when they were pushed in, it seemed like they were about to burst out, so they decided to stop.

The interviewer - especially Magnea - asks Potentia a few questions after some thought.

"Are you an aristocrat in your country, Mid-Eden?"

As far as Potentia's words, deeds, and atmosphere were concerned, Potentia was invisible to Magnetia. He also knew that the Waltzes were in a very high position in Mid-Eden, and he still didn't think that the Potentia who acted alongside them was in a low position.

Potentia responds quickly without worrying.

No, it's not. I'm not an aristocrat. It's just a civilian. "

Potentier retracts his words as if he were just a battleship.

Although Magnea moved her eyebrows in response to such a reaction, she did not ask if she thought that the truth would not come out even if she pursued Potentia, who said she was a commoner.

But instead, you bump into a new question.

“So, what kind of life have you had so far? Are you a student?"

If you're not an aristocrat, why does Potentia behave in a way that doesn't suit her age... Magnea tries to clarify the reason from a different point of view than the previous question.

On the other hand, Potentia responds by examining the contents that seem to be fine even if he speaks while feeling the intent of Magnea.

In Mid-Eden, there is someone who excels in the knowledge known as the "Wise Man". I learned a lot of things under that person. How to read books, basic knowledge of magic, how to survive in the woods, etc...... ”

Before Potentia spoke emotionally, Magnea seemed finally to have a point of convergence. The result of being educated under the name "Wise Man" is the behavior of Potentia nowadays.

"I see. So--"

The steepness disappeared from Magnea's expression, and the interview progressed slowly.

And finally, she asks all of the students and faculty she's been interviewing questions to Potentia.

“What do you want to do when you enroll at our college?”

"Potentia replied to Magnea's query..." His response seemed to be different from any that Magnea had ever heard from a variety of people.
