I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~
Episode 267 - The First Place -
In late January, school classes began in earnest, and the day of my first lecture finally arrived.
I've given lectures to adult opponents many times, but I'm a little nervous because I'm new to children.
The first lecture was in first grade magic. That's my grade. It's just a coincidence, but I feel a little less nervous when I get acquainted. In that sense, thank you by chance.
"Um, hello, everyone. I'm Beat = Face, the royal mage who teaches this class. I usually study with you, but I will be your teacher in this class and martial arts. It may be difficult to switch, but get used to it.”
Twenty-six noble children of this grade are gathered in the lecture room assigned to the magic class. With this number, including the baron's children, there may be fewer children of the nobility this year. Well, less is better.
I went up to the lecture hall and I said, "Hey, are you really a teacher?" 'or' It's just a child '. Two pairs of kids. You're still kids, aren't you?
“Starting this year, the content of classes will change dramatically, but it contains important information that is not yet known in other countries. Therefore, we must ask you to sign a pledge that you will not share any information you have learned in this lesson with anyone else.”
Maybe it's the cutting edge of the world. It is only natural that confidentiality obligations arise. Even if it is a parent brother, I don't want it to be leaked.
Well, I think it'll leak eventually, but the king's intention was to put it off for as long as possible.
"Also, depending on your magical aptitude, you may be exposed to God's contraindications, so you must also sign a pledge that you will not initiate or cooperate with any research related to God's contraindications."
Rather, this pledge is the real deal. I absolutely need you to write this down.
Even if information about magic leaks to other countries, it is unlikely to be disadvantageous if you continue to run on the cutting edge. All you have to do is run as an antecedent.
But if you touch God's forbidden, Raptor Island will burn the whole area. If they do that in King's Landing, the country may die.
Actually, the king came up with a plan to have me write a pledge to use magic only for the development of the kingdom, but I refused it with all my might. I refused to leave the country if I had to write such a pledge.
Because if you write that, you won't be able to venture. You'll need permission from the state to defeat monsters. Substantial use of magic is forbidden.
The king seemed to have just said it, and at that time, I quickly withdrew it... but how serious was it?
Maybe what I really wanted them to write is' to me '. I don't feel safe with territory or marriage policy, so I think I want to keep as many chains connected as possible. That's worrying.
"Don't be silly! We're not slaves, we write our names in such a pledge!"
As expected, it was Jean-Paul who spoke out against it. Something's coming at me. I guess your parents have spoken about it a lot.
“After you raise your hand, you need to get permission before you say anything. And this is a pledge. The slavery contract uses the contract prints, not the paperwork.”
"Oh, what's wrong with that!" We are. "
"Don't say 'we'." It sounds like you speak for all of them, but I don't think they all agree with you. [M] If you have a claim, state it as your own. ”
Well, you know, you're the one who talks about your opinions as if they were the consensus of the whole.
Mass garbage and the opposition used it a lot in the past. Try to create an unpopular trend, or create a public opinion that deviates from reality. It sounds like the right thing to do, because you're claiming it loud and vain.
But it's also true that it's effective in manipulating public opinion. A lot of people are going to be loud. In order not to be flushed, you have to be smart. Damn, I'm in trouble.
"If you don't like it, get out of the lecture room." After that, you don't have to take this class. If there are other people who agree with you, you should leave. "
"Go home if you don't want to." Gedou-san isn't free.
Shit, there's no more time to waste than teaching an unmotivated guy. I don't want to remember or learn, so no matter how much effort I put into it, nothing will remain. It's a few times more meaningful and rewarding to teach someone motivated by that time.
"Ugh, don't think you can just talk to me like that!" You guys, let's go! "
"If you want to leave, do it yourself." I'm not impressed with involving others. Always make your own choices. ”
"Ugh...... Tch!"
I don't know if I can get the kids in, but it's important. You have to choose your own important choice. It doesn't mean someone else will be responsible for it. I failed. It's possible that you're the only one who's unhappy. '
It's important, so adults have to teach you. That is the duty of an adult. Well, I'm just a kid now.
"By the way, everyone I've taught has become a wizard." I have the technique. We plan to do the same for the person who signed this pledge. I can't promise you for sure, but there's a good chance you'll become a wizard. ”
There was a rumbling in the lecture room, and a few people who were trying to follow Jean-Paul's lead stopped moving.
Right. There are very few aristocrats who can use magic now. Even if you have two sons or three sons or less, you are more likely to become the next president just by using magic. Even if my older brother and sister have already succeeded me, I may be able to build a new house independently.
Even women who basically do not follow the trail of the Kingdom's laws may be expected to dowry to higher nobility houses, or to take their son-in-laws and become substantial chieftains.
In other words, the options for the future are greatly increased. And in a positive direction. This will be fascinating.
"Hey, hey, you guys!?"
"... I'm sorry, Jean Paul."
I want to be able to use my magic.
"Ah, do as you please!"
In the end, only Jean-Paul left with the door open.
After this, we have to be careful that only you, Jean-Paul, are not isolated. If only one person can use magic, they may be bullied. Because I'm a teacher. It's a hassle.
"Then please sign these two pledges." If you break your pledge, you will suffer so much pain that you will die, so please be sure to keep it. ”
There are a few students who are upset by my words, but they also give up and write their names immediately. Don't worry, nothing will happen if you don't break it.
"You signed them all, didn't you? Now, let's begin our first lesson. First of all, what is magic?"
Classes have finally begun.
I'm sure that the same thing will happen in the second and third grade classes. I can be compassionate about the future.
