Episode 27: The Strongest Sage, Knowing the Potential for Magic Renewal

That simple problem is the unresolved problem!?

"You're lying to a boulder!?

"No, it's a fact. Finally, the examiner of swordsmanship that Matthias defeated is the chief knight of this country, and the one blown up in the magic exam is a substitute for just breaking one after ten shots. I got 75 points due to various circumstances, but I also had a plan to give you 500 points or so."

What is this situation? Are you trying to grab me?

I mean, what's 500 out of 10? Doesn't that mean anything to you?

But there's no way he's joking about the teachers around him.

The grantee and the teacher are seriously trying to carve the magic formation I wrote into the demon stone, and the teachers around them are looking at it in a serious way.

In the first place, there's no point in fooling me with this.

Well, let's just move on.

"So if what we're talking about is true, what do we do?

There's got to be some purpose for the principals, too, than calling them in this situation.

Deciding to respond is not too late to hear it.

"I guess there are a lot of special circumstances to say that I have gained so much power that year. I'm not going to pry into us. I just wanted to ask for a little help."

"... cooperation?

"Oh. Actually, right now, this Royal Second School is in a state of existential crisis.... Well, the school itself isn't going away, so it might not be right to call it a survival crisis."

"What is the situation?

"You know there are two Royal Schools in this country, right?

"Well, it's a second school."

There's a second school. I guess there's a first school.

Unless you've been crushed and run out of First School.

"That first school is the problem. The aristocrats nowadays don't like the way the second school does. So I'm trying to force the Second School to do the First School thing. Actually, it's better that way."

... Hmm.

If it is a royal university, will the way of education still also depend on the country? Is it college?

"I don't think it's a bad thing to change education to a proven way"

"Exactly. If only the performance of education had been judged in the proper way."

"... haven't they?

"Here is an assessment of the first and second schools and a list of reasons why. Look at it and decide for yourself if it's right."

That's what they gave me, a bunch of paper.

On the first piece of paper were the names of the creators and collaborators, and judgment pressed because they belonged to the royal family.

I turned one of them and doubted my eyes.

Once a year in this country, they compete against each other in selected students from School I and School II to compete for superiority and inferiority.

Not so far.

For some reason, the selected student is limited to two years of elementary school.

Since we are an elementary year and the match seems to take place about a month after the start of the semester, the time between admission and the match is like 13 months.

It's too early to decide to win or lose in a people-to-people match.

"Isn't this too soon?

"Do you still think so? We agree. A year after school, it's not yet time to play interpersonal. Even if you practice meeting with a sword as a training, it's too early to teach interpersonal techniques and such."

It was full of mistakes, common sense in the world today, but what this principal is saying is right.

The basics of battle are still fighting against demons.

Before and after the basics are acquired in the battle against demons, the interpersonal way is also completely different. Enough to say we have little in common.

So it's pointless to teach interpersonal skills before you acquire a game against demons. You can say it's harmful.

If we have just won with measures in place, a few years from now, it is decided that it is better to win precisely from the battle against demons. Ridiculous.

I turn the next page, complaining in my mind about the planners of the confrontation.

There was a list of "research results" raised by the First School. Not a single one from the second school.

But it's all about chanting magic, and it's all extremely obnoxious that you've found a little more powerful chanting magic than anything you've ever seen, or just a little shorter chanting magic.

That usually (i.e. without chanting) magic can do anything with one tweak of magic.

Is this the result of research?

"... what do you think?

"In the meantime, I found out that the way I did first school wasn't going to talk. But what does it mean that not a single Achievement of Second School has been written?

Even if First School doesn't work, Second School isn't necessarily better than that.

What the hell does it mean that there is not a single piece of research?

"There are research findings. I just couldn't admit everything."

The principal answers my question with a bitter face. The magic teachers around him also looked remorseful.

"I couldn't admit it, what?

"The study of magic in today's society is the study of equal-chanting magic. Otherwise I can't admit it."

"... I mean, in second school, you say you're doing unchanging magic research?

"Exactly. This is what it is.... Isn't what Matthias said in the classroom about" mixed physical magic fights "our goal?

Saying, the principal offered a thick bunch of paper.

Its contents are rough shreds, but I did see serious research into the use of magic without chanting and its practicality.

The method of education is also sophisticated to such an extent that it cannot be described as that efficient, but cannot be said to be completely off target.

If what the principal is saying is true, this second school will mean that he intends to restore unchanging magic to the world today, where chanting magic has spread.

Oh. Sure, second school is better than first school.

"I've heard about the unchanging magic Matthias used, and I let myself see the dirt magic that fixed the school garden, but that's a level of artistry that's impossible even with chanting magic.... and what I need most now to educate myself about unchanging magic is my track record. Matthias, I want you to be yourself."

Based on the flow of the conversation, does track record mean go to a rivalry? It's two years' til ', so you should be able to get out for a year.

Doesn't that sound interesting?

You can train yourself alone, but it's impossible for you to develop strong allies on your own.

And there are students in this school who were still dyed by inefficient chanting magic. From now on, proper magic will soon be remembered.

This story isn't bad for me either. It's more of an opportunity I wouldn't even wish for.

"I understand the story. But can you give me about three terms, too?

- But improvements still exist. I snort only after some of the conditions have been accepted.
