07 Story: It's Not Human Business

"The tactics that I specialize in are melee militant magic and melee combat with this sword. What about you, Too Eight?

After deciding to join hands, Elysia quickly moved to the operations conference.

To her, who says as she lifts her sword gently, I answer, too.

"Melee militant and long-range shooting. You can also use a fixed point installation formula."

"It's versatile. Are you good at fighting alone?

"Well, that's the place. So I can't use the support formula."

So it's not universal either.

There are five different kinds of magic.

Proximity, proximity, long-range, long-range, and fixed point installations.

Melee, remote, and fixed point installations each indicate a magical range of effects. For example, the range of effects of the melee formula is up to the subject touched by the operator.

And militant, shooting ceremonies indicate magical uses. It's literally a classification of martial arts - magic to help with melee warfare, or shooting - magic to help with ranged warfare.

The task I was given by the agency was mostly to execute alone. Even if we teamed up, it was a small one, and if that also resulted in an injury, we were often instructed to cut it off immediately. For this reason, I have not learned the magic of supportive ceremonies that empower third parties. The soldiers of the institution are polishing all the means to fight on their own.

"If it's a proximity ceremony, I can use it....... by the way, do you have a bad situation?

I answered Elisia's question after thinking a little.

"I'm not very good at front cut fights. If Elicia's gonna come forward, I'm gonna have to turn back."

"I don't mind that...... is it true you don't like the fight with the front cut? You just stopped my attack so easily."

"... I might be right to say I don't like it rather than not. By the way, I prefer ambushes and assassinations."

"I prefer assassination... as if I ever did."

My mouth slipped a little. Immediately delude "It's a joke".

"Of course not," Elysia returned.

"I have a short reach, so I have to get around to the back when it comes to remote games. From what I've seen, Dr. Farnese is also a proximity user, and I don't think he'll have to worry about that... but I think I'll count on your shooting if I have to."

"Copy that. Then I have a form proposition."

Perhaps the battle will be a gymnasium where Dr. Farnese is rampaging.

While observing the structure of the gym, I tell Elysia the operation.

After finishing the whole explanation, Elisia looked seriously at me.

"... strangely calm, or you're used to it. I'm starting to wonder what kind of life you've been living."

"I'm not living a big life. If I insist, I've lived in people's words."

"Huh.... like my parents were tough or something?

"That's the place"

It was the institution that raised me so far.

Institutions are like proxy to me.

"Well, let's go."

"Oh."

Elisia touches the sheath.

Together, we set foot in the gym where Dr. Farnese is.

"Mm."

Seeing Elisia entering the gym, the red-haired swordsman Farnese briefly leaked her voice.

Next to Elisia - no one. Once again, she turned her wars to Farnese alone.

"Alone. I was talking to the boy earlier, so I thought you'd put your hands together."

Elysia laughs small at Farnese's words.

"I don't take weak hands like that."

"... you have a nice sword arm, but you seem a little stiff. That judgment is diminishing."

"Is it a subtractive formula? This exam."

"That's right. Even so, it's not me who scores, it's the judges out there."

"Really? Then I'd like to ask you something."

Elisia says.

"No matter how subtracted you are - you're not going to fail someone who defeated a teacher, are you?

To that question, Farnese turns her eyes only for a moment.

Then I answered with a grin.

"Oh. I'll vouch for it"

instant. Elysia stepped through the ground.

Melee militant magic "Reggie" realizes the physical abilities of the outside world. Elysia, approaching Farnese's nostalgia in one step, swung through the white blade at an unexpected speed.

"Sweet!

Farnese also swung through the sword at a rate no less than that of Elisia.

Two swords collide and sparks scatter.

Elisia continued her onslaught to stay out of the way. But Farnese outweighs him with a sword.

It was Elicia who first came to the limit on the multiple swordspears.

The flesh rejects any further oxygen-free exercise. Under extreme concentration, Elisia gazed at the timing of her retreat. But...

"Sora, don't rest your hands!

Farnese was spotting Elisia's condition.

As Elisia steps back, now Farnese turns to offense.

I'm not in shape. Now, when I'm attacked, I'm blown away a lot. Elysia, who decided so, - on her left hand, created a shield.

Gakin, and a loud metal noise.

The shield that suddenly appeared on Elisia's left hand shifted the flash of Farnese.

"Did you build a shield in Materialization (Fixation)? Good judgment."

Instantly in shape, Elisia waves her sword again.

Unlike earlier, Elysia now has a shield in one hand. But the attack grew more harsh, rather than more aggressive. - From the former, Elysia prefers the way to fight using swords and shields at the same time.

Exchange auxiliary movements by shield while rolling out sword moves with one hand.

He took Farnese's sight with his shield and unleashed a thrust into that gap. But Farnese was reading this, even though he was blocking his vision, let him try to dodge it.

I don't give you time to breathe.

Elicia cuts the blade back instantly and releases a reverse slash.

But Farnese also took it with his sword and showed it to him.

"Is that sword... magic equipment enough to be made? He said it was very powerful."

Elysia tongues at Farnese, who calmly continues her analysis amid intense rewards.

"You can afford it, right - heh!

"I'm not a hero teacher at Dada. By the way, my sword is also a magic tool. Most of all, it's just a little sturdy compared to a regular sword, which doesn't sound like much magic."

Farnese says without disturbing one breath.

Melee militant magic "materialization" prevents the creation of magic fixtures. For this reason, the creation of weapons by "materialization" was often only in time (...). Because magic tools have a breaking performance compared to normal tools, when you are fully equipped, everyone will have magic tools.

The sword that Elisia holds is a magic tool.

The shield uses the one in time in Materialization, but only this sword can replace it.

As Farnese said, Elysian swords have the power to double the power of slaughter.

But Elisia didn't mean to be dependent on that sword. The training of swordsmanship is double that of men. So, anyway, Farnese deserved to be stunned (...) that he was stopped (...) by a boy who didn't know (...) from any horsebone, but (...) - if he was, he wouldn't be so easily outdone.

"Your moves belong to the knight."

In a fierce sword trident, Farnese said.

"To some knighthood - no, at that age, I don't belong to the regiment. So... you've had experience teaching knights?

"... you haven't looked through my paperwork that I submitted in advance? If you look at that, you'll soon find out."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm the only one who hasn't seen the papers yet. In order to achieve a fair fight with this exam - heh!

Farnese's temper increased.

Even if we try to find a way to live, there are still limits to being single.

Elisia's onslaught gradually lost momentum and eventually became a side of the war.

"Ugh!?

Shield against the slaughter unleashed by Farnese.

But he couldn't kill the shock and blew it off gently.

"The cause of defeat is obvious. No matter how confident you are, you should not challenge your opponent singly"

Parallel to eagle fried and words, Farnese raises his sword.

"As soon as the exam is over, we'll tell you whether or not to accept it"

The sword of Farnese was swung down.

But then. Elysia laughs.

"No. - I'll have you decide whether or not to accept it now on this occasion"

For a second.

Somewhere, it sounded like a van and some kind of bursting sound.

"- Huh!?

Farnese, who had been laid back until earlier, would lose room for it as soon as possible.

With a face driven by agony, she retreated quickly.

Immediately afterwards, a high-speed bullet pushes through where Farnese stood until earlier.

If the retraction had been slightly delayed, by now, the bullet would have pierced the flesh of Farnese.

Farnese, avoiding the bullet with a single hair, exclaimed in a cold sweat.

"-" Sniping (Sniping) "huh!?

"... Correct"

I fucking laughed when I heard Dr. Farnese scream.

Ranged Magic - Sniping (Sniping). It is a magic that achieves long range and precision shooting.

After Elysia and I broke up, I quickly went upstairs in the gym to avoid Dr. Farnese noticing me, and I flew into the attic using the Fistula. There are holes in the roof of the gym, and I sniped Dr. Farnese off one of them.

You noticed this position in the current shooting, and Dr. Farnese says something as he stares at me.

"'He's got a good arm, but it's a shame he missed his first shot'...? That's not what school teachers call dialogue."

It's like a faculty member of an institution.

I can't hear you, but I know what you're talking about from your lip movements. It is a technique called lip reading. It is a compulsory subject in the institution.

When the position breaks, the rays are read.

That's why I started moving immediately.

Elysia has been told in advance which position I'm moving to.

My position changes with the number of shots fired and Dr. Farnese's current position. The second shot is next. And Dr. Farnese's current location is between the walls of the gym. Then I'll - get as close as I can to the entrance to the gym and get as far out of Dr. Farnese's sight as possible.

The second shot - Dr. Farnese, who slashes and ties Elisia together, fires a bullet, a mass of magic.

But I failed. Dr. Farnese played the bullet with his sword.

It's an out-of-the-way reaction rate. I can tell that he is using "Fistula" quite a bit.

In addition - perhaps that sword is a magic fixture. I didn't know you could easily play the bullet fired by Sniper... it's pretty sturdy.

But there's a problem with my sniping, too.

"Shit, that's not accurate"

Again, with the (...) wand I picked up around there, to this extent?

There is a magic apparatus in the world called a wand.

It's rightly called a magic wand.

The use of this' magic wand 'ends in that it' aids in the activation of magic '. Whether it aids firepower or magic accuracy is fragmented by individual concepts, but those who specialize in magical combat often carry canes. Especially the wand, which goes well with remote magic.

Remote shooting magic "sniping" can be activated even by bare hands, but due to the nature of precision shooting, activation using "magic wand" is generally recommended due to the difficulty of biological control. So now I'm using a properly locally sourced cane - it's still hard to use a cane I'm unfamiliar with.

Some of the canes are called 'sniper canes', specializing in the use of 'snipers'... naturally, the canes I use now were just 'magic canes', not 'sniper canes'.

"But I got the feeling."

Two shots fired.

The first shot confirms the angle of shot. The second shot confirms range.

By finishing each one, I somehow could read the habit of this wand.

"It's hard to target non-kill in Sniping... but there's nothing I can't do."

Reposition again and enter the sniper position.

He leaned down while hiding in the shadow of the rubble, stretching his wand straight.

While pointing the tip of my wand at Dr. Farnese, I only recall the past a little.

- If this is the case, should I have brought the 'sniper wand' I'm used to using?

Reminds me of a magic tool I used to carry as a work tool.

But that's not my property. It was originally a tool borrowed from an institution. Now that the institution has been dismantled, my 'sniper wand' is under the control of the superior organisation of the institution - the State.

- When I use that, it's when I return to the dog of the state.

Not yet, not then.

Third shot.

The bullet released is once again bounced by Dr. Farnese's sword.

I'm not moving next time. Immediately release a fourth shot.

But this was also played with a sword.

Move a little before preparing a fifth shot.

"Well, I'll take care of the rest."

Says looking at Elisia's face playing an incandescent swordsmanship battle.

And when I fired my fifth shot...

- Dr. Farnese's sword, shattered.

That moment.

In Elisia's brain, the amazement of "incredible" and "great chance!" The determination appeared.

"Stupid!?

Farnese is stunned.

Elysia, on the inside, was just as surprised.

Sure, that boy - Tweet said.

The ideal is to take down Sniper directly, but if it seems difficult, at least let it be powerless......

But...

- It's not human business.

Elysia had frank feelings.

Farnese's sword moves were first-class. Perhaps she has lived a long life with one sword path. Therefore, the movement was also calculated when playing the Sniper attack with a sword. Farnese adjusted the angle of her torso so so that the sword could not be strained, and instead of preventing the bullet (...), she was deviating (...).

But as if to mock such Farnese moves, Tuate made me try -.

- of the sword, in the exact same place, continued to hit the bullet.

Shortly after the fourth shot, Elisia felt "No Way".

And when the fifth shot was fired, and the sword of Farnese was scattered in pieces, Elisia's prediction proved right.

No matter how much Farnese detracts from the power of the bullet, so many times you get a direct hit in the same spot, the load on your body is inevitable.

The reason is understandable. But emotions don't convince me.

At the earliest, it is a precision shooting that is not an exaggeration when it comes to divinity. Anyway, the opponent is moving, and it's an extremely difficult place to aim, part of his body. We have to predict the movement of Farnese and fully predict how it can be prevented.

"No way, you mean you did it for this...!? Let me, deliberately prevent bullets...... Huh!?

Incredible was the same with Farnese.

But the results are in front of us. I don't believe it, but this is real.

To the stunned, less stood up Farnese, Elicia packs her time.

Farnese put up his sword reflexively. But my body is broken. With that reach, which is halved - it can't be prevented.

Elisia's sparkle stood perfectly still at the neck of the Farnese.

"There's a battle."

To Elisia's words, Farnese answered with a deep exhalation.

"Oh.... my loss"

The place was completely quiet.

The other students in the gym are also too rigid to be surprised at the defeat of Farnese.

Then came Tuate soon after.

"That went well."

Farnese, for a moment, looked at Tuate, who came to his senses with such ease as to see a monster. But you remembered your admiration as a teacher, and immediately turned to Tuate.

"You're the one who sniped earlier. Brilliant... really brilliant, skillful"

"Hi."

Too Eight to reply that doesn't seem interested.

Elysia questioned how such a too-eight looked.

"Tweet. That wand... you didn't have it before you broke up with me, did you?

Tuate was now carrying a black wand on his back. I know it's a 'magic wand', but where did you prepare it?

"Oh, this is local procurement. Just now, there was a student with a cane in an affordable position who caught him and lent him a little. Well, if it wasn't there, it wouldn't have been there."

"Hey, wait a minute. He said I got him... Huh? You mean you knocked one out right after you broke up with me? In such a short time?

"Oh."

In a flat appearance, Too Eight nods.

But Elisia drowned a cold sweat.

Who is this man?

Such a question swirls in my chest.

"So I'll give this wand back"

That's what I said, Too Eight turned his heel back.

But just before I walked out, I turned around here and opened my mouth.

"I don't need the prize money either, so do whatever you want."

After returning the wand to its owner, a whistle sounded throughout the old school building.

It's a sign that the entrance exam for the Department of Heroes is over.

The students were assembled in the auditorium for both those who survived and those who fell off, and the successful candidates were announced in no time. Pass if they call you by first name. If they don't call me by my first name, I won't pass.

I wanted to go into general medicine, so why am I here?

Enough to wait and think like that.

Gradually, the acceptance or rejection of all students was announced.

I failed.
