Virtuous Old Man, SSS-Rank is Confirmed in Your Next Life

04. Good man, it makes the multiplier 10,000

I was with Ethan and I walked inside the magic school.

Because I thought I needed to know what was there and where it was when I was going to have a full class, not just the Honorary Principal.

I told Ethan that, and he showed me the whole way.

That's just something that was built as the last fortress in the royal family.

The groceries, the arsenals, the building itself?

Exactly a fort, no. You can call it a fortress class.

It is often said that a siege requires three times as many troops, but even ten times as many are likely to rise here.

Conversely, if this place is suppressed by rebels or something, it will be a big deal.

Now I know even better why Eliza sent me in.

I didn't even give a bite of that sentiment, and I mouthed my superficial sentiments.

"Amazing, here. It's like this is just one city."

"It's for His Majesty to use at times of need, so that's about it. Of course not."

Now that the two of us are alone, Ethan replied to my sentiments after admitting perfectly well that this is a fort.

"What am I supposed to teach you in such a decent place?"

"As Your Highness wishes."

"Hmm."

That's the hardest part.

I'm still more comfortable being told to teach you my bad magic.

Walking around thinking about what to do.

On the banks of a river flowing through the school grounds, there was one girl.

A little older than I am now, a girl about 10 years old.

The black hair is lustrous and long, and the small face is adorable as if it were a doll.

older than Ange, but the atmosphere is a little younger on the contrary.

Such a girl was roaring by the river, holding her hand against a glass of water, mmm.

Too powerful. My face is too bright red.

"You haven't changed."

"Hin!

When I rang from behind, the girl was not a metaphor, surprised enough to really jump up, Zuzazaza, and backwards away from me.

"So who is it? - Ah, Principal."

"Hello, Mr. Shaomai May"

Apparently, the girl is named Shaomai.

"Hello, Principal. Um, is this girl...?

"It's rude, Mr. May. This will be the honorary principal of the school and revealed to His Royal Highness the Great Vice Emperor of the Empire."

"Yeah, yeah!? Oh, that Vice Emperor!?

Shaomai was even more surprised at how flippant he was.

My lord is a snakefoot, but a grandly surprised 10-year-old girl would be like that.

"I'm sorry! I don't know anything about your face."

"Never mind. That's what happened to me recently. More than that..."

Until just now, Shaomei was holding hands, I saw a glass of water.

"Were you checking for magic?

"... Yes"

Yeah? What's going on?

When I asked him if he was checking for magic, Shaomai's expression suddenly darkened.

"Can't you do it yet, May?"

"Yes......"

"What's this all about?

"May, she apparently has no magic,"

"No magic?

"Yeah, I've been doing tests like this for almost a year now, but there's never been a change in water."

Ethan lifted every glass of water Shaomai was using to try to soak it in the sun, smell it, and pinch his fingers to check the temperature.

I wonder if there has been any change.

"I... I knew I couldn't. Your father put me in this school so hard..."

"You mustn't give up, Mr. May. No one is free to manipulate magic from the beginning."

"But... we've all said we've never seen anything so bad."

Shaomai grabbed his hand and glanced at his lower lip and relaxed.

I've certainly never heard of that.

Magic check.

Normally, if you've been doing it for almost a year, it's a training in itself, something that makes some difference to the water.

I've never even heard you say that to match my memories of my previous life.

Concerned, he asked the stone of the wise man for knowledge.

I wondered if that was happening or what it meant.

The stone of the wise returned me an answer that would soon become knowledge.

Knowledge streaming into my head, holding it, gazing at it, looking at Shaomai.

From the top of your head to the toes of your feet.

Then I found it (,) on my finger.

"... I see"

"Huh? Did you say something, Your Highness?"

"Look. Mr. Shaomai."

You can call me away, Your Highness.

"Bye, Shaomai. Give me a hand."

"Hands......?

Confused Shaomai, glanced at his face with anxiety about what would be done.

She looked at Ethan, and Ethan nodded quietly but clearly.

It was okay, and Shaomai, who was silently encouraged, offered his hand as an aside.

Doll-like, small, white, soft hands.

I took that hand and mouthed it on her pharmacopoeia.

"Hin! Oh, no. What?"

Shaomai flies away from me too surprised and falls behind with tremendous momentum.

I gained momentum and hit the tree behind me from my back.

That, moment.

A smoky thing blew out of Shaomai's body at once.

At first it blew like when I opened the lid of a boiling pot, but when it settled, the smoke surrounded her body in large quantities.

"Ko, is this -?"

"It's her natural power."

"The original?

"When I spoke earlier, there was a precipitation there. The pharmacopoeia of the right hand, said to be directly connected to the heart, is also the base of the magic line (,,). If it was her, it would have been stopped for some reason."

"Really? No. But we also considered the possibility, but we couldn't find any precipitation."

"Look at her magic."

I offered Shaomai.

She is awash to see the magic that is out of her body.

"Are you doing bat ultrasound? I can't see it without more magic than that."

"Oh, my God! That means -"

"Yeah, she sounds like the most magical thing in this magic school, including teachers."

"Was it... that's His Highness the Vice Emperor. I was impressed to see that through."

"Shaomai more than that"

"Ha, ha!

"Try again in that state"

I handed over the cup.

It's a glass of magic checks, which Shaomei has been doing until just now.

"But... not me..."

"Shaomai can do it now"

"But..."

"I assure you, trust me?

Shaomai hacked and then reached out for a snack and received a cup from my hand.

And put your hands on the cup, I can put magic into it.

"Huh?"

"I knew it."

"What is this, Your Highness?"

Surprised Shaomai, asked me to explain.

From the cup she had, the water was completely gone.

"Shaomei's true magic is too strong to be measured by a cup."

"- Ha!"

That's the magic school principal.

It was something I didn't expect, so I didn't know right away, but when I was told, I could understand the phenomenon.

I'm even more in Shao Mei.

"I can't do it with a cup, so try it on the river there"

"Yes..."

Shaomai approached the river with his forehead, and put his hands together.

As a result of sending in magic - the river froze.

The river, whose surface reflected the sun and sparkled until just before, froze in an instant into the katchikochi.

"Yeah, it sounds like Shaomei's good at ice attributes."

……

Shaomai alternated between me and the frozen river with his face that he was unbelievable.

"Good for you, Shaomai"

"- Yes!

Shaomai nodded loudly and wept all the time.

"Whoa! You did it, brother-in-law!

The next day, when I woke up in the morning with Ange and came to the living room in a personal capacity, the owner of the mansion, Horsen, came to me once and slapped me on the shoulder.

"Duh, what's wrong, Master Horsen?"

"I heard what happened at the magic school yesterday. A... No, it awakened the wizard's potential equivalent of S rank."

"About Shaomei? I knew there was an S-rank equivalent."

I somehow thought so at yesterday's stage.

The glass of water was wiped out in an instant and the river was completely frozen.

If I had erased both the cup and pond and thought it was slightly weaker than that, I thought the S-rank would be reasonable.

"It's just a rumor, Deputy Emperor and Honorary Principal's leadership is amazing."

Horsen uses the same youthful language, but for that matter it was easy to understand.

"It's amazing, Master Alec, that's just great!

"Your majesty asked me to do something bad, and I won't get mud on your face."

"Yes!"

"Well, there's a little trouble with that, too."

"Trouble?... Why does Master Hawthorne nibble?

"It's obvious. It doesn't matter how troubled I am, my brother-in-law is awesome! You can say that."

"I have a bad feeling... what the hell is going on?

When I asked, Horsen sneered even more.

"Rumors of leadership are spreading fast, and they're killing people who want to enroll next year."

"Oh, yeah."

"The multiplier exceeded 10,000 as of this morning"

"... Yep!?

A multiplier, that multiplier?

Exams and passing, that multiplier.

"What do you mean, Master Hawthorne?"

When asked because Ange wasn't sure, Horsen further explained.

"There are too many hopefuls, and we can always hope, but only one in 10,000 people has passed since this morning."

"Wow! Wow! That's amazing, Master Alec!

"Isn't that amazing? That's my brother-in-law."

"Yes! That's Alec!

Horsen, who nibbles, and Ange, who shines his eyes.

The two of them were in a mess.
