The next day.

When I went to school, Dr. Ares suddenly told me to head to the dean's office.

According to Dr. Ares, it's not about graduation, so I'm feeling calm.

But what can the Dean do for me?

Concon con.

"I'm a 3rd grade Kate Arnoel."

"Come on in."

I heard the Dean of the Academy from across the door. Open the door and enter the room.

"Excuse me."

I've never been in the Dean's office before.

Not that it was the luxurious room I imagined, but it was an interesting, calm room.

Behind the room —— a desk is installed at the window that would be used for work, and the walls are cluttered with books that seem difficult to arrange on the bookshelf.

In the center, a sofa chair for visitors and a desk are placed opposite each other.

"Dr. Ares told me the Dean of the Academy wanted to talk to you."

"Um, you've come a lot. Take it easy."

I lowered my back as the dean urged me to sit in a chair for visitors.

An old grandfather characterised by a white beard. Talking one-on-one makes me a little nervous.

"Congratulations on passing your graduation exam first, Mr. Kite"

"Thank you"

"I hear you've gotten pretty strong in your fight with Dr. Curse."

"Yes, it's good to be able to make it in time with critical"

"Mm-hmm. Kite, I've been touring your battle for the first time. Looks like the other grad students were rolling, I'd like to see that in anticipation --"

That said, I guess the dean had prepared the papers in advance and showed them to me.

"Secondary Magic Academy Match Roster......?

"Uhm."

Secondary School of Magic Match is a kind of festival where graduates from each secondary school of magic who are recommended to be particularly prominent come together.

Sure, it should be held in Wangdu soon after graduation next week.

The majority of outstanding graduates go to the Higher School of Magic, but there is a great added benefit to that entrance exam. Nevertheless, graduates who can compete against each other have the strength to pass at their leisure on their own, so in that sense the festival —— it's a play.

"I would recommend you, Kate. Will you take care of it?

The appearance of the college rivalry is quite honorable. But there's nothing I can do about it where I got the honor.

More than that, I was found to have to take precedence by regaining my memory.

"College matches do get three people out of each college, don't they? Who else besides me would be recommended?

"If judged in due course, it would be you and Meena. I'm going to ask both of you to do this, but I don't know if you're going to take it."

Remilia is the president of the school year, and Meena is the second seat. That's right.

"The Third College is a little bit of an array of results every year... I think this is the year. Well, why don't you take it on?

I have things to do first.

But at the same time, I want to thank the college for taking care of me for three years.

Besides, the contestants are Remilia and Meena, whom I know well.

The confrontation ends in just one day.

Then a little stopover would be acceptable.

"Okay, I'll take care of it. This year we will lead the Third College to victory."

After school. It's Friday, so I'm free to use my time tomorrow and the day after.

By the way, I reported to Remilia and Meena that I was going to compete, and she finally told me to head over to the Dean's Office, but the two of them who were supposed to say they weren't interested in the confrontation until yesterday somehow agreed to it in two replies.

"If there's going to be a kite, so am I!

"Kite suddenly made me want to try it out"

He said something like that, but I'm not sure.

My going into a rivalry and my interest in the two of us is supposed to be in a different vector... strange.

So I decided to give Remilia and Meena a suggestion.

"If you're going to the match because of this, don't you want to win? Pack it Saturday and Sunday and you'll probably win. If it's all right with you, why don't we work out together?

The strongest college around Curse means that if you work out enough to instantly kill him, you should be able to win a rivalry as well.

If that's all right, I can handle it in the short term.

"Meena, I'm not interested in winning, but I'm following Kite"

"I don't care about winning, either, but if Kate says so, I'm going out with her!

"Then it's settled. Maybe a little hard, so just be prepared for it."
