If my hunch is correct, this time I'm aiming for something sealed in the basement.
I don't know what's sleeping, but that's all I can think about.
You don't have to make a scene in the stadium if you're just messing with the school.
We just have to make more noise than that.
In other words, we want to stop everyone in the arena.
The beasts are alive!
And what the two of us who are not there have in common is the underground in the library!
I'm just worried about the poor security of this school... what kind of thing makes a beast break into the school so easily?
If so, the presence of informants.
No, it's more of an informant than a...
At that time, the library will hear violent sounds and explosions like something will collapse.
"What is it now? The library?!
"Ah... it's a little late!
"I knew there was something underground..."
Rushed through the trouble and finally reached the library.
The noise of everyone fighting the beasts reaches their ears blurrily.
At first glance, there's nothing unusual about the library.
"It's getting stronger..."
Huh?
"The boundaries of the library are weakening, and the traces of magic inside are getting stronger. No, this is not the end of the border destroyed!?"
"What are you saying?!? Wait a minute, what is this? I feel it too! It's amazing. I don't like it.
No, it's hard to calm down the disturbances if we collect the underground stuff first.
I'd like to catch the killer, if possible. Hurry up!
Me and Dorothy go into the library.
"Kh...!
As soon as the door is opened, hot air flows out of it.
Unpleasant heat and smoke.
I can feel traces of intense magic around the magic book corner.
This trail is different from the underground.
"I'm sure you let go of something..."
The smell of burning is full around.
We're slowly approaching the source.
"What is this?"
There was a punch hole in it, poking towards the basement.
It's a creepy way to open it, like it's melted in heat.
There was a hole in the basement.
"Is the culprit down there?"
"Gil, come here!
"What's up, Professor Cain?!"
It was Dr. Cain who suffered burn-like injuries to his whole body.
Dorothy called out, but her consciousness never recovered.
"No... I'm not conscious anymore."
"Damn it!"
The person who formed the boundary fell unconscious.
That means the one down there is...
"I'm going after him." "Probably Dr. Keith."
I'm coming, too.
Have you seen Dr. Cain? I'm sorry it's not for free. "
Still, Dorothy won't pull it off.
"If I let you do it, I might try to kill you like the first time I saw you again."
"--hah, okay. I'd rather persuade you to be stubborn... I don't have time for this right now. Stay close to me."
"I know. Let's get out of here! And you shouldn't lick me too much."
We went down to the basement.
The basement is like a temple, and Mr. Keith lit it or Matsuaki lit it.
The size is not so large, there is a short narrow aisle in addition to the space of about 10 m square where we got off.
Beyond that, you can see a blurry light.
"This is the back."
We go down the road slowly.
They'll already know we're here.
Just be careful with surprises.
I'm a flame-based magician, no matter what I think, to see how Cain and the hole look.
Should we attack with the ice body this time?
A powerful flame and water are the only way to burn stones and water.
It wouldn't have gotten stuck if the water vapor exploded. I'll freeze you in an instant.
After walking for a few meters, you enter the open space.
It's considerably wider than before.
It's a coffin made of stone.
It's very similar to the place I woke up from a thousand years of sleep. It was narrower over there.
"Over there..."
Where Dorothy pointed her finger. A man stands in the middle of the room, rolling up something like a book.
Is that Dr. Keith?
What is this feeling?
That was fast.
The man doesn't look back when he sees us behind him.
Keith Sensei... Isn't that right?
"What are you talking about? I don't care how you look at it."
The man slowly looks back and shows his hands open.
I don't care how you look at that face, Dr. Keith.
Dr. Keith closes the book and puts it back on the table.
"I knew it was you. I've done so much with Professor Cain!
"... I wonder if you understand. What can I ask you now?"
I see...
I already know everything.
I don't care what kind of history there is or why.
The beast was thrown into the arena, attacking Professor Cain and entering the basement.
That's all that matters.
I'm going into combat.
"Stop it? Take me."
"I don't know what that book is, but I can't give you what Dr. Cain desperately protected."
"That's right... I mean, wait a minute. I've seen that book somewhere.
"Try it if you can!!!!
When Dr. Keith went mad as if he had broken down, he opened his hands and stood low.
There's magic in my hand.
"Avoid it, Dorothy!!
"Eh!?
Damn... I can't make it!
I rush out in front of Dorothy.
"What...?! Gil!"
I'll freeze Keith's flame in an instant.
Frozen fireballs fall to the ground in front of us and shatter into pieces.
Quick reaction...
"Is that what teachers are all about?
Keith doesn't seem to be riding my provocation at all.
It's like an unintentional doll.
"Come on... I'm so used to fighting against the flames!!
