The summer vacation ended and the second semester of the academy began.

Laura and I haven't been in school in a long time.

― Well, today's lesson is the New Magic Split Barrett

Philbus' words stood in front of the table.

The students reacted, oh, oh.

There are many kinds of classes in the academy, but the most popular among students is the study of new magic. It's only natural that you're an apprentice who wants to learn a lot of magic.

Philbus makes the blackboard run chalk.

Draw one large circle, then draw the arrows and draw four small circles ahead.

"Split Barrett fires multiple bullets in a single trigger. The power of each shot is weakened, but it's not bad to shoot a wide area at once. It's a basic Split magic trick."

Filves slaps the first big circle with chalk.

"But don't get me wrong. One shot at a time, only one shot at the beginning. Split it after activation. It has not been split from the beginning. This is an important place. Don't get me wrong."

Yeah, well, the students write down Philbus' words.

The image of activation is important in magic. No matter how hard you work here, you can't master it.

Then Philbus wrote various theories on the blackboard and explained them.

"... well, that's all I'm talking about as a reason. Now, let's move on to baking."

Baking - it is a word that refers to the work of mastering magic.

I opened the book of magic I had and opened the page of the Split Barrett.

The following three items were arranged there.

Chanting text.

Magic song.

Magic crest.

Mastering magic means understanding the three.

What is a chant?

It is literally a "chant" used to activate magic. However, it can also be omitted. It is used when you are not confident because chanting in advance increases the success rate of magic. The effect is not affected, so it is basically omitted if fully mastered.

A magic song is...

It is a song that evokes the image of magic. Apart from chanting, I will not speak of this. Some clauses have meaning, others have no meaning. The image that the word creates must be engraved in your head.

Magic crest.

It's a pattern that builds magic. The shapes vary, but they are a combination of geometric shapes. This one, like the others, will not activate magic unless you remember.

"Look, I'll explain what Split Barrett's magic song means. Don't miss it."

Philbus explains the contents of the book of magic.

Baking means thoroughly learning these three things and literally 'baking' the body.

It's not a shallow level of memory-it's a labor-intensive task because you really learn to engrave deep inside your body.

Besides, low-level magic is short and simple, but the longer and more complicated it becomes, the greater the burden.

It's hard to learn one magic trick.

After understanding these theories, the magic of the user is commensurate with the magic of the user and can be used for the first time.

... by the way, I don't remember the magic arrow "baked".

One day, I suddenly used it.

Nothing strange about this.

Magic is what accumulates in your body. These are the three types that have been systematized to learn it efficiently.

Some magic is naturally "nurtured" in the magician's body - that's not so unusual.

"... is the explanation for the split barrett. That's all I can do. So, baking begins. Call me if you have any questions."

Students look at the book of magic.

By the way, perhaps no one will be able to master it during class hours. Even at low levels, it takes so long.

I don't have time to waste.

That's why I learned Split Barrett's magic - I stopped looking away from the book.

Because I know the results.

I can't remember Split Barrett's magic. I know that ten years ago.

So what I need to think about is...

How will this stimulus help strengthen the Magic Arrow?

I can't remember magic because I went to college after all, it was for "stimulation."

Even if I think about it alone, it just boils down.

When I get information from outside like today, it becomes a challenge and stimulates my image.

Multiple splitting bullets.

Multiple split magic arrows.

The power of each shot seems to be weak, but it is certainly not a bad effect to be able to hold out a wider range.

Can my magic arrow evolve?

The chime rang at the end of the class.

Philbus said as he quickly put together the teaching materials.

"Well, you mustn't learn magic all day. You all know that. The stack of authentic tunnels every day is important. Good luck with that."

Philbus left the classroom.

It was time to rest, so I went to Laura's seat.

"How was it, Laura?

Laura was groaning with her head pressed tightly.

"I have a headache from burning the split barrette ~"

"You still don't remember Laura?

"Yes, so thank you for the lesson."

Laura dropped her gaze on the magic book that was left open.

You're not good at baking magic crests.

It's hard.

"I wish it were as simple as a magic arrow..."

Meanwhile, Laura writes the magic crest of the magic arrow in the margin of the notebook.

It was a very simple shape. It is also the simplest of all the magic crests.

But...

I opened my mouth.

"I think this is the level of graffiti. But it's hard to write accurately. The line here is two-thirds smaller than the line here, and the angle here is skewed twice."

I'll point my finger and explain what's bothering me.

Laura looked me in the eye.

"Eh, well, I've never been conscious of that....? Isn't this the magic crest of the Magic Arrow?

"... is that so?

Actually, I noticed a discrepancy in about 20 places when I looked at it. Does everyone feel different from me...?

It was then.

"... hey, Alberto Luminas. Would you mind...?

I had something to talk to from behind.

... there aren't a lot of other people who talk to me but Laura.

Laura, who sees someone, breathes a little.

Alberto Luminas.

To call me by that name...

I look back and there are two students standing there. One of them greets me.

"Nice to meet you, Alberto Luminas. My name is Kirilla. The Duke of Grand Duke."

Kirilla smiled and kept on like this.

"I need to talk to you for a second, okay?
