The Magus of Genesis

Episode 4: International Students/International Apprentice

"……… Why are there purples?"

Nina said that somewhere in a cold voice to me when I returned with Mr. Purple and Yuki on my back.

"What. Didn't you predict this would happen and let Yuki follow you?

"What are you talking about? I simply let Yuki follow me because I thought you wouldn't be impotent if he was with me."

He was a true patron.

Either Yuki has a more impotent personality, and I actually feel like he's been impotent...

"Dear fruit falling. I'll take care of you here often."

"Stop. Nina's fine."

Nina looked reluctantly and waved at Mr. Purple, who bowed her head with a respectful knee poke.

"So, why did you bring me here?

"Yeah. You don't have enough teachers, do you? I was hoping you could help me, too."

The moment I say so, Nina opens her eyes and takes Mr. Purple's hand.

"Good luck. I hope so."

"Uh, yes. I'll try."

Though confused by the attitude of Nina, the leopard, Mr. Purple nodded.

"After all, we should increase the number of teachers."

"It's urgent."

When I blur, Nina unequivocally affirms.

"Amata wanted to be."

"Amata ah..."

To Yuki's words, I put my arms together and frowned.

Sure, he'd be solid, and I'm willing to be able to play the teacher role even if I just taught him a little bit.

…… but.

"But he also has a sword club role."

When I say role, it's nothing. I didn't impose that. However, the head of the Kenbe clan was regarded as the representative of nature and this village, and as a guardian. Amaga, the two fathers, is in charge now, but Amata should take over anyway.

"Ah, wow."

Next to the nodding yuki, Nina turns her gaze toward me.

Since when, she has often come to look like that. But I usually don't say anything to the habit of saying things that are difficult to say, even if you only ask me when I look at you like that. Neither had I, these days, stopped asking questions. If it is really necessary, there is also trust that you will probably say it.

"I've been thinking about this for a long time, I'm going to take an international student"

"Leugaxei?"

To my words, everyone on the spot as well as Nina tilted her neck. It's the first word I've ever spoken, so naturally.

"Only children from Hiiro Village go to this school now, right? I'm going to embrace that elsewhere… not only from humans, but also from other races."

"Are you crazy?"

Nina looks thoughtless.

"It's not like I have dozens of them. Just a few of them."

"You say you don't have enough teachers, what are you gonna do with more students?"

"When I say I'll increase it, that's not how some people can be teachers, is it?

Without prejudice to humans, with the skills and magic to be taught. People like Mr. Purple are rare. It would be impossible if I told her that I could become a teacher tomorrow.

"So first, you're going to grow someone who's going to be a teacher."

"You can be a person in this village. It's not Amata, but there are a few people who might be able to. Itsuki, Kerrell, Hakanak, that's good, right?

To Nina's best question, I nod.

"Yeah. But there's a good reason. The first is that long-lived species like elves can serve as teachers for a long time. It's gonna be tough to re-raise a teacher every few decades, isn't it?

"That is…… well, yeah"

Nina nods even though she has a difficult look at how much she doesn't want to increase the number of students.

"The second is that the magic you're good at varies from race to race. I'm good at fire magic, and all elves use plant-related magic, right?

I don't know if that is simply a matter of birth and upbringing, whether it is determined by genetic things or for a completely different reason. But it was certain that the specialty was biased by race.

"So at this time, I want to gather all kinds of races and study all kinds of magic."

It seems that there is no such thing as magic that humans are at least born to be good at. The magic that you become good at individually is too fragmented. That, on the contrary, also means that any magic can be remembered. Then there's no harm in researching all sorts of magic.

"Hmmm......... well, that's good. So?"

That would not have been a pleasant story for Nina, but it would not have been an opposing element. She doesn't seem very concerned, and she urges it to continue.

"The third is about balance. It may not be a good idea for us to keep putting our shoulders on human beings alone."

"What's the meaning of this?

Nina's sharp gaze captured me.

"You know that, too. The human growth rate is very fast. I'm still civilized inferior to the elves now, but it's only a matter of time before I pull that out. When that happens... people may become enemies of the elves"

"But you don't have to come, do you?

With an anxious look, Yuki grabs my sleeve.

"Of course I will make that effort. But, Yuki. I'm sure people will leave my hand one day. So that one day the child will be independent of his parents."

The people of Hiiro Village are all very idyllic and concerned. But history proves that people can't stay that way. History of my previous life's world, but I'm sure it won't change there in this world either.

"So share the results of your research. Keep the balance so it doesn't become one-sided. At least not a race friendly to humans."

Apart from the elves, there are several other races with interactions.

Humans are... Once humans have all but perished with the exception of Homo sapiens.

I was terribly lonely in my previous life that mankind was just one species.

I don't want to do the same in this world.

"That's the way it is for a reason."

"… ok. If that's the case, you don't have a choice."

With one sigh, Nina admitted to me in such a way as to shave.

"I wondered why the purple got out of the woods, but that's why you did it"

"Huh? Oh, uh"

"Yeah. I'm going to learn the strength of people here."

Purple said with a smile, blocking my mouth.

The truth is, I'm not talking like I just told the elders.

Regularly report on Nina. Purple gave permission for that condition in two replies. Thanks. Nina has also learned the art of jamming lately, and even Elf's elders are not able to ask how this is doing at all, so she was worried.

It kind of makes me feel like I've drawn a spy in, but there's nothing else I need to know.

…… and.

Something really backwards happened.

The fourth reason to include an international student who didn't even tell Nina.

The most important real reason.

My goal is to make this magic school big and famous.

That doesn't just mean making the village of Hiiro bigger.

It was necessary to spread the existence of this school throughout the world.

- Because I don't know where in the world I'll be reincarnated.

Just as I became a dragon from a human being, she doesn't necessarily come from being a person either.

That's why we have to make it a school that is known not only to humans, but to all races.

So that one day she can come back here without hesitation.
