"Hey, where have you been lately?

Ren asks me that with her cheeks full of meat.

I accidentally clog the bitten meat into my throat and swallow the water in a hurry.

"Puhaa... I didn't go."

"It's convincing!!! What a blatant upset!

Ren leans back and laughs happily.

"Nah, it's nothing, it's nothing! Fine. Nothing."

"Wow, well, I don't care, if Gil doesn't have anything. But if you have any trouble, let me know. I'm already a destiny community... if I'm in the same class."

That said, Len smiles with a smile.

True, he's a bright guy.

Next, I remember Kensei Sieg, who spent a thousand years together on a journey of demon crusade.

He was always a mood maker, bright behind the world's cool gay image.

Len... well, it's exactly what I imagined.

I often eat with Ren at night these days.

As always, Loki doesn't like to hang out with us as a lone wolf, so he always snacks and goes back to his room.

Well, we can't all get along. I don't care.

"I know. Better worry about yourself than that.

"What is it?"

"De-cursing dark magic..." What is that? The curse of dark magic got more complicated and the guinea pig died. "

"Hahahaha" means that people are unsuitable for you. There's no magic trick for a flashy man like me. "

"What a convenient guy..." Well, I didn't think you were good at delicate de-cursing for the gorgeous Len. "

Len snips her fingers.

"You know very well. I don't want to, but I'm surprised that you're going to do anything else. Almighty, I wonder where you learned such magic."

It's been a long time since Len's eyes were opened.

Sometimes this guy stares sharply... I don't like the feeling of being seen through.

"Well, that's a good thing. Then I'll go back to my room."

I'll see you tomorrow.

◇ ◇ ◇

- Night.

Dorothy and I will leave the inn and come back to the square in front of the library.

Sorry, sorry, I'm a little late. What are you doing?

Dorothy crouched in the shade of the tree with her butt pointing this way.

What the hell are you doing?

"Shh! Come on, this way!

If you pull my arm long enough, I'll be forced to sit next to Dorothy.

"Hey, so..."

But Dorothy is looking straight at me without even paying attention to me.

Did something happen? I'll drop my voice a little.

"What's going on?"

"Check it out. There, in the library."

"Nh?" "Ah, is anyone there?" "Professor Cain?"

Standing there was Professor Cain, who had a dark magic de-cursing class.

The teacher looked around the library and left without going inside.

"What are you doing at this hour?"

"Now... maybe it has something to do with the traces of magic you said before..."

I don't know...

Sure, I feel a little strange.

I want to think that even if I can feel the traces of magic, I can't even feel the first class magic school teacher.

That means that there is a clear intention and it is also possible to come here.

But...

"Well, isn't it strange that there's a teacher on campus? I can't help it."

"Well, yes, but... Wow, that bothers you. I didn't say anything yesterday, but I saw a flicker. No, that's right. I can't help but lose sight of what I'm trying to achieve by being trapped in something I don't know. --I 'm going to train again today!!

The night Dorothy snuck out, Dorothy started her special training.

Besides, I've been a teacher since before the exam.

Can you think about it? I was already bruised when I was saved, and I was hoping to fall during the exam. I didn't expect to rely on me.

Well, there are some people who have offered me an offer, but I was a little surprised to accept it.

Has there been a change in mood?

I thought I was Dorothy, but I might have misunderstood a little.

I will use anything to enhance myself. If you want me to recognize magic from around you, I will not choose any means. Perhaps that's Dorothy's pride.

In fact, a human being like me would be the best person to rely on magic, even in the last few days of classes, and everyone in the class would have understood that.

I don't know Loki.

Well, like that, and then, like every day, I do special training here at night.

Speaking of special training, I remember Yufi, who was close in the village.

What are you doing now?

"Come on, don't be nervous. What are you gonna do today?

"Oops, for now, I can sense the magic of the ball in my hand, and it's time to take another step. The distance is good, so let's be able to tell the direction first."

I place the ball in the right direction and urge it to hit Dorothy.

"Nha... 3 o'clock"?

Good. Four o'clock.

"Ah! As soon as I got away from my hand, it got harder..."

Dorothy swallows her teeth with regret.

"Well, don't panic, let's do it little by little. The tricks are like feeling the wind."

"Wind?"

"Yes, magic always shakes, so never stay still. I'm sure you can feel something shaking from that direction."

"Shake it..."

Dorothy takes my words seriously.

"When you feel the wind, you have to wet your fingers and check the direction of the wind, right? Just like that, when you feel magic, you need to be sensitive to your body."

"Sensitive! I don't suppose you're thinking about it."

Dorothy hugs me with a slightly disgusting face.

"I didn't think about it! --Well, anyway, just stand there and say goodbye. I've never thought of detecting magic before, so I don't know how to feel in the first place. Be sensitive to your body's senses first, and you'll be able to see them from the direction first! That's why."

"I see... I'll try my best again today!!

◇ ◇ ◇

And here comes the second magic basics class.

Like last time, magic detection class.

Show off the results of your special training in the last few days!

Well then, Mr. Dorothy. Please. "

"... yes!

Dorothy stood in position and detected the magic.

"12 o'clock 2m" "3 o'clock" "6m" "And then, eight, ten meters in the nine o'clock direction, ten meters in the ten o'clock direction, five meters in the six o'clock direction.

"Ooh...! You're detecting better than last time!

"I did it!"

All right!! I'm starting to be able to...!!

"However, the distance is still a long way off. There is too much error. Not all directions are still on. Well, that's enough to know. I don't really need to know this much."

It was a praiseworthy Dorothy, but I snapped my mouth.

"No, Doctor. I need to be able to do this perfectly. I can't forgive myself."

"... you're tough on yourself, Dorothy. It's an apprenticeship."

I guess so. That's Dorothy.

A hard-worker who hates losing.

"I see. I don't know how you train, but it's true that you're getting better. Please surprise me even more."

"Yes...!

"Oh, good luck! I'll back you up."

"Yeah... Good luck, Dorothy! I won't lose either!"

Both Len and Masaki are susceptible to Dorothy's heat.

--But there is one man who destroys such a support mood.

"It's sweet, you guys."

"Well, that's the way to say it..."

"I don't know if it's a special training, but it's a waste of time. I want to learn something deeper. Do that by yourself. Even today, it's such a waste of time for detection..."

"... that's..."

In Loki's words, Dorothy loses her words.

"That's enough, Loki. You're not perfect either. Don't tell me you're in good shape."

"Ha, what are you up to, Gilford? You think magic is best? You scary face. Hero."

This kid... looks like he's gonna have to show me one painful shot.

We need to clarify the relationship between top and bottom around here.

One shot of magic, not to mention...

At that time, Freud snorted his hands.

"That's it, both of you. This lesson is the foundation of magic... is fighting a different lesson, please do it freely."

"..." "Hmm."

I'm sorry, Doctor.

Damn, I'm getting too hot too...

Calm down, me. If I keep doing that, I'll be horrified if I just think about it.

Well, let's continue the lesson.
