Ten minutes later, I could hear something moving in a nearby bush. I stare cautiously at it.
This is bad, if more demons appear now, this will be the end…
“Lute, you’re okaayyyyy!”
Ah, it is a demon…..No, it’s just Sensei.
“Ah, Bagiran Sensei…..”
We hurried in the direction of the scream.
We came upon a break in the trees, nearly all of the trees and grass had been cleared out in a wide circle.
It almost looked like a plaza, there was no trees or grass at all.
The ground in the clearing was dyed black. This is……….
We were sprinting through grass that was up to my knees.
Since this is a time trial, we can’t waste any time.
Then one may say, “Why not use【Anti-wall】to go faster,” well it would be meaningless.
It wouldn’t matter if one person finished quickly.
The entire team has to finish before the time is counted, and it would be foolish of me to waste my magical power here.
Dawn, the next day.
In contrast to the cool air in the forest, we are fired up.
“Al~right, I’ll do my best!”
“I will too!”
“Kerokero! Kerokerokeroke!”
Everyone seems really motivated.
Several hours were spent riding along the bumpy road in the imperial carriage.
When suddenly, the carriage stopped. I was awoken from my nap by the abrupt stop.
A seemingly endless forest was spreading out before me.
“We’ve arrived. This is the location of the expedition, Vakyanarel Forest.
Bagiran says this as he gets out of the carriage.
Morning.
Another week had passed since entering the Adventurer’s Academy.
I’ve gradually started to become used to life here.
After receiving several lessons now, I now know the level of this school.
This academy is supposed to be the best in the country, but I don’t think it’s quite at that level.
I concentrated my magical power, and formed【Anti-wall】at my feet.
I stepped on it and launched myself into the air.
Before I lose my momentum, I form【Anti-wall】in the direction I’m moving large enough to engulf my entire body.
The transparent walls wrap around me and then eject my forward.
Repeating this, it appeared like I was using flying or jumping magic. I continued to fly freely through the sky. Continue reading
The next day.
It was Bagiran’s loud voice that awaited me in the classroom.
“Alright, everyone’s heerrreee!”
Why are you so energetic, Sensei? It’s still morning.
“Ah, my head….your voice is too loud.”
“Good to hear. Among the adventurer’s there are stories told of the power of, ‘Bagiran’s Roar’…..!” Continue reading
— Luluna and I began to calm our excitement after reuniting with each other.
At this time, a girl sitting in the back called out to us.
“Excuse me, do you know Luluna?”
I turn my gaze to see the figure of a beautiful, dignified girl.
The girl had long, glossy black hair and was wearing a kimono.
I first use【Anti-wall】 to create some distance, then I quickly place【Thunder Trap】between us.
Grandpa had taught me about the tactics used by strength enhancing magicians. Basically their plan is to close the distance between their opponent as quickly as possible.
Bagiran rushes towards me as expected.
Three more steps, two more and he’ll step on the trap……Alright, he’s activated it. Continue reading
