âKurt in a school uniform! It really does suit Kurt, you look so cool in it!â
Soon after checking out the results, the uniforms of Rosanlila Magic Academy were handed out to the successful candidates, so I quickly put them on.
Hmm. Looks like itâs made of pretty good material for this world.
âIt looks good on you too, Laraâ
âThank you! Look at me~ Look at me~â
Her skirt fluttered as Lara spun around.
I didnât mean it to be flattery or anything, but I did think sheâs really cute.
Well, thereâs also that. Maybe the shirt wasnât the right size, but the buttons were about to pop from Laraâs bountiful chest.
âFrolicking in your uniforms, are you guys still kids?â
Marise, who is also dressed in her uniform, let out a sigh.
âBut Marise-chan, you look happy as well?â
âT-Thatâs not true! Wearing this uniform means that we will be seen as a student of Rosanlila Magic Academy. We have to act properly outside so that we donât bring shame to the Rosanlila name. In the first place, you guys areâŠâŠâ
Marise lectures to Lara.Â
However, Marise also looks pretty good in her uniform.
With her neatly dressed, sheâs just like Rosebella, the Goddess of Beauty that I saw 1000 years ago. |TL Note: The âRazebaraâ name is subject to change if thereâs a better version â Update: changed to âRosebellaâ. Credits: Peregrine|
âI think Marise looks good too. You look beautifulâ
Maybe thatâs why such words came out of my mouth naturally.
âEhââ?â
Mariseâs cheek blushed a bright red.
âIf youâre s-s-saying t-thi-things like that again, Iâm going toâŠâŠ.âÂ
She looked away from me in embarrassment.
âŠWell, letâs put the uniform matter aside.
We then started heading to ăFirstă class.
âIâm glad to be in the same class as Kurtâ
âIâll get to see your magic a lot more often while weâre in school. Iâll catch up to you soon, so be prepared for that!âÂ
Apparently, Iâm in the same class as Lara and Marise.
Iâd be lonely if I had no company with me, and besides, these two are talented in magic.Â
Thinking ahead, perhaps it could be said that Iâm lucky to be in the same class as them.
When we arrived in the classroom, including us three, there were about 30 students in ăFirstă class.
âFirst of all, everyone. Congratulations on your successful enrollment. Iâm Erika, the homeroom teacher of this ăFirstă classâ
Sensei told everyone so as soon as we took our seats.
Although she is a woman, she seems to be a strict teacher.
âYou can affectionately call me âEri-chanââ
âŠâŠâŠ.
Silence envelops the classroom.
âA-Ahemâ
As if trying to cover up that awkward silence, Erika-sensei cleared her throat.
âAll of you will be spending the next three years in this school. Itâs up to you to decide how you want to spend your three years here. You could use them for rigorous magic training, or you could be diligent in your research. But let me tell you one thing. For those who dilly-dally for those three years, even if he or she manages to graduate from the magic academy, they would have a bleak future ahead of them. I want all of you to keep that in mind and have a fulfilling life for the next three yearsâ
The atmosphere in the classroom became tense after that.
âNice to meet you, Eri-chan!â
âM-Mm. Nice to meet youâ
Only Lara waved her hand and called out Senseiâs name in a cheerful voice.
Erika-sensei also looked happy to be called Eri-chan.
âWell then, letâs start with a self-introduction. First, the top student, Kurtâ\nShe looks at me.
âŠâŠDamn.
What should I say?
Well, I donât have to be like Erika-sensei, trying to be funny.
Letâs end this peacefully.
With that thought in mind, I moved back my chair and stood up.Â
âIâm Kurt. Kurt Lepracta. I hope to live a peaceful and happy life in this school. Nice to meet you allâ
After finishing my introduction, a weak applause followed, and the students began whispering to each other.
âKurt who passed as the top studentâŠ. AhhâŠhe was the examinee 99, right?â
âI heard he broke all 10 Mud Dolls in one fell swoopâ
âThatâs not all. In the practical exam, he was able to make a huge âHoly Swordâ appear, and he seems to have won against Desmond-san, tooâ
âBut I heard that he has the âDefective Magic Powerâ? It all just sounds so unreal! I didnât watch the fightâŠbut it must be a lie!â
I wonder if itâs because I was being a little too conspicuous during the entrance exam?
Even though itâs only my first day at school, itâs like Iâm already famous.
âExcuse me! May I ask a question, Kurt-kun!â
One of the girls raised her hand and stood up.
âKurt-kun has an exam score of âââ, right? Full marks are supposed to be 300 pointsâŠso what does that âââ mean?â
âYou can ask the examiner about thatâ
I shrugged.
Seeing that, Erika-sensei decided to reply on my behalf.
âIt means exactly as it is. Kurt does not fit into the 300 points categoryâ
âHe doesnât fit intoâŠâŠthe 300 points categoryâŠâŠ?â
âTo be precise, we couldnât score him. Thatâs just how it is. Ah, rightâŠKurt. Can you try to solve this problem?â
said Erika-sensei as she writes out a magic formula on the blackboard.
Hmmm..âŠ.it looks like this is the magic formula of Ifrit Flare.
In my previous life, it was a high-ranking magic.
I never thought Iâd be able to see something like this in this eraâŠ.
ââŠâŠHm? But thatâsâŠâŠâ
There are far too many errors.
As it is, it will go out of control and the magic wonât be able to activate properly.Â
âSensei. Isnât that magic formula wrong?â
âOh? Itâs wrong? Then please write down the correct magic formula for meâ
I didnât expect that she would suddenly set me up.
âYou may use this piece of chalkâ
âNo, I donât need it. I can write without itâ
âWhat do you meanâWha-!!!â
Senseiâs eyes widened in surprise.
Before she could even blink, a new magic formula has been written all over the blackboard.
âWhat is going on hereâŠâŠ??â
âI didnât want to start from scratch, so I just projected the magic formula in my head directly onto the blackboard. Is there a problem?â
âN-No, itâs not that, butâŠâŠâ
Erika-sensei quickly adjusts her glasses and takes another serious look at the magic formula I wrote.
âWOWâŠâŠ! Amazing!! This one is certainly more logical and beautiful!! I donât think I have enough magic power to materialize itâŠbut I really didnât think it was possibleâŠ!!â
For some reason, she looked very excited.
âSensei?â
âI-Iâm sorry. It seems like I was overly excitedâ
âThenâŠis it correct?â
âHmmâŠâÂ
Sensei nodded and then replied,
âItâs not correctâ
Eh�
Does that mean Iâm wrongâŠ?
âThereâs no correct answer in the first placeâ
âWhat do you mean by that, Sensei?â
âThis is one of the âLost Magicâ which has been lost in the annals of time. Thereâs no one in this schoolâor even in the entire world who can handle thisâ
Seriously?
Even if itâs a high-ranking magic, anyone who could use a little bit of magic, can cast it continuously, right?
Itâs the kind of magic thatâs suitable for attacking a large area.
If the enemy hadnât set up a barrier, an entire city could be blown away easily. And after the magic revolution happened a thousand years ago, it was common to have this level of magic that can destroy entire cities.
For that reason, it was a common practice to set up barriers that cover entire cities.
âHowever, the remaining descriptions of the âLost Magicâ in the old literatureâŠâŠwe tried to decipher and restore it as much as possible, and the result was the magic formula that I had written earlierâŠâŠbut the formula written by Kurt is much better. Itâs on a different levelâ
Sensei muttered to herself.
In contrast, the students who were watching as this whole event unfolded,
âIs a magic formula supposed to be that long?â
âWouldnât it take an hour to set up that magic formula during a battle? And whatâs with the structure of the chant?â
said the students.
ââŠâŠSo everyone understands, right? In the exam, there was also a similar problem like this. After much consideration, we had no choice but to give him an âââ score. Needless to say, heâs the undisputed top studentâ
Upon hearing this, nobody argued that statement.
