“Look closely. Just spin it like this. It’s simple, right?”

“…… No… It’s not that simple.”

As Rai spins a large iron mass resembling a cog wheel in the air, Mia in front of him shakes her head with an awkward smile.

They say it’s simple, but it was a difficult spell for Mia, who has poor mana control skills.

“You can do it. Try it.”

As the iron lump falls in front of her, Mia gulps down and injects mana.

To fill her lack of confidence, she thinks of her training so far.

I was beaten by Rai, I was beaten by Philia, I was beaten by Aslan, and I was beaten by Abigail and Zeroa.

‘… Can I do it?’

When she recalls her training, she only remembers being hit, and her confidence plummets.

Fortunately, contrary to her anxiety, the iron lump rattles and rises in the air.

She seemed to be begging for help.

It was an amazing development considering her past where she couldn’t create a single spark and exploded it.

“Floating, floating!”

“Concentrate. Anyone can do it.”

When Mia makes a fuss about her, Rai calms her down.

If you are not good at mana control, your emotions will affect you a lot.

As if proving Rai’s anxiety, the iron mass begins to vibrate and vibrate.

Mia’s pupils shake wildly as if she has become anxious when she sees that.

“Zeroa.”

“Yes!”

When Rai calls, Zeroa, who was training on one side of her, runs to pick up the shield that fell on her floor.

As soon as Zeroa got on board, the vibrating iron mass flew forward.

“Wow!”

Zeroa flew along with the iron lump and crashed to the ground, creating a large dust cloud.

“I taught it as a defense method, but it would be good for offense as well?”

“Zeroa-senpai!”

She leaves Rai who speaks casually, and Mia runs to Zeroa.

She’s a bit shocked, but knowing zero that she’s not hurt, she gets out of her dust, waving her arms complaining of her pain.

“Zeroa-senpai, I’m sorry! Because of me…”

“No. It’s because I’m inexperienced that I couldn’t shed it properly.”

Mia apologizes over and over again, but she knows nothing and replies that she is fine with a kind smile.

“Is that a defense? Is offense the best defense?”

Athlan approached Rai, who was looking at the two with suspicious eyes, and asked.

“Idiot, that’s a defense method modeled after the Aegis shield.”

“What is it called?”

“Hmm… What should I call it?”

“Did you make it?”

Asran looks at him with a puzzled expression, but Rai touches his chin and shrugs his shoulders after contemplating.

“Well, Mia should name her. She was made for him anyway.”

“How do you write?”

“I’ll show you.”

Rye pulls a lump of iron from the ground.

The ‘C’-shaped lump of iron had teeth protruding at regular intervals like a gearwheel, and it was as thick as a person’s waist, so it seemed like it would be an excellent weapon just by wielding it.

The iron ball that flew through the air rotates with the lie in the middle.

“Should she be called Hula Hoop?”

“I don’t know what a hula hoop is, but it’s definitely not a good name.”

As the iron mass rotates around Rye, other people also look at it with interest.

Asran, who decided to engage in a simple sparring, attacks, but is blocked by a spinning iron block.

Actually, Rai doesn’t attack and just walks forward, but Aslan is pushed back by the spinning iron mass.

“That’s why you said it was modeled after the shield of the Aegis.”

“Yes, it’s a shield that protects the user’s surroundings.”

The shield of Aegis is a magic that floats a mana shield around and automatically blocks attacks directed at the user.

It was an advanced magic, so warriors couldn’t even dare to use it, but it was an essential defense magic that pure magicians with good skills used unconditionally before entering battle.

Since Rai made it so that even warriors with low magical abilities could use it, Philia and other children couldn’t help but be interested.

It doesn’t simply rotate horizontally, but it rotates in all directions, so the movement is also amazing.

The reason why it is made in a ‘C’ shape is to leave one side empty so that it can move freely without touching the user.

“Sheesh, just hold on to it.”

Athran, who was only getting hit, stopped by holding the end of the iron lump with his hand.

As the huge iron block struggles but fails to escape from his hand, Aslan smiles in repentance and wields the greatsword with one hand.

“Separation.”

Aslan, who had been holding on with strength, fell backwards, unable to overcome his own strength, when the cogs held by Rai’s horse separated.

“There’s a strange feature attached!”

“I thought there would be people with simple thoughts like you.”

Athran, who fell in a funny way and quickly balanced himself, is annoyed, but Rai laughs.

Since the iron lump was assembled from several pieces, it was free to separate and combine.

The fragments that Asran threw away came back and merged into a lump of iron, and they protected Lai by spinning around without any problems.

“It’s an amazing spell. The spell is easy, but like a weapon, you need to raise your proficiency to use it in real combat.”

“That’s right. Anyone can do it with two weapons.”

As Rai said, raising weapon proficiency is not difficult for warriors.

It was a skill for warriors, not pure wizards.

“I can only use Mia.”

It wasn’t even the shield of Aegis, but Philia had been interested for a while after seeing the magic that increased its power according to her skill and material, but she soon found a big flaw and gave up.

Injecting mana into her objects and wielding them at will costs a lot of mana.

Like a tailored suit, this was a craft only for Mia.

“It’s a great magic… Can I do it?”

“I will.”

Mia worries with a lack of confidence, as if Lai’s use of it and showing her power was rather counterproductive.

“You keep working hard. You can do it.”

“Yes, I will work hard.”

She was full of worries when she spoke, but Rai narrows her eyes when she sees Mia giving her strength as Zeroa cheers her up.

Ray, who kicked Zeroa’s butt for nothing, tells him to train and lies down under the shade.

Whether Rai is watching or not, the academy students don’t seem to be lazy.

Anyway, they came to the academy to get stronger.

Athran, who avoided training when he was at home, and Mia, who lacks confidence, train hard.

As time passes and the sun goes down and everyone is about to scatter, Rai calls them together.

Filiana and Abigail also stayed up late as if they had no other schedule today.

“Is the exam preparation going well?”

“……”

“Why do you look like that?”

“No, because the most unlikely person asked.”

“Even if I look like this, I’m an instructor? There’s an instructor in charge. And you’re the one who doesn’t seem to be interested the most. Why me?”

Rai gets angry while lying down and kicking Aslan.

Asran gets angry with Rai by kicking Lai’s foot, and Mia, who still can’t adapt to the atmosphere, is nervous, and Zeroa reassures her.

“Excluding your practical skills, how are your final exam grades last year?”

“Average of 94.”

When Philia answers first, Mia looks at her with her admiring eyes.

Thanks to the vicious level of difficulty of the instructors who are serious about the test, even if it only entered the 90s, it was at the top.

Abigail has 88 points. Despite her seemingly high score, Lamia stares at her, then meets her eyes and bows her head in surprise.

After that, it’s Zeroa and Aslan. Asran said with an average of 40 points.

“Aren’t you ashamed to see your juniors?”

“It’s embarrassing, so can you stop telling me?”

“I’m telling you to be ashamed.”

Ray smiles and Aslan distorts his already scary face.

Laughing out loud as if he was satisfied with his expression, he looked at Philia and Abigail and said.

“If you get an average of 70 or less on this test, don’t expect to be trained.”

“I am the only one.”

“Yeah, you’re the only one. But it’s joint responsibility. If you can’t do it, they can’t train either.”

Others stare in surprise at Rai’s words.

“f*ck, that’s f*cked up. Just say you don’t want to teach.”

“It doesn’t make sense to put up 30 points all at once. That’s impossible.”

Abigail and Philia shout at the same time.

One is desperate from the beginning and the other tries to convince him that it is impossible, but Rai is unsteady.

From noble mtl dot com

“Impossible or not depends on your abilities.”

“But 30 points…”

“I don’t know, if it doesn’t work out, we’ll all die together. What should I do because I feel sorry for Mia? Practice what you’ve learned from me. Philia… Since she has her own teacher, there shouldn’t be a problem. Zeroa, well, work hard.”

Athlan was the most embarrassed by the irresponsible words.

He has a rough personality, but he doesn’t like to cause trouble to others.

But it’s joint responsibility.

If your grades are low, other kids will suffer too.

“Can’t I just be punished? I feel sorry for them. I will study hard.”

“No.”

Asran hardens her face and tries to tell her, but Rai smiles and refuses.

But Asran was serious.

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden? If you’re bullying, only bully me. If you don’t want to teach me, only do it to me.”

“I have taught you well up until now? I have filled in your shortcomings and taught you only the things that are right for you.”

No one denies this statement. Until now, no academy student was dissatisfied with Rai’s teachings.

“Even now, it’s just a task to fill in the most lacking part. What is the most lacking thing for you?”

“Mana Control?”

“Yes, that short hair.”

She was openly criticized for having a bad head, but Asran didn’t get angry.

I understand, but that doesn’t mean she has to take responsibility for others.

“Because if you don’t do this, you’ll never do it. And you need good teachers to get good grades.”

“Teacher?”

“Yeah, here’s a 94-point teacher and an 88-point teacher.”

Ray looks at Philia and Abigail and says.

“You take responsibility for teaching him.”

“You mean to make a study?”

“The difference in grades is so great, it must be more of an education than a study, right? Try teaching both Zeroa and Mia. The story is over, everyone should get a score of 70 or higher. I will train you until the exam is over, so don’t worry. After that… I don’t know?”

Listening to the nasty voice, Philia and Abigail looked at Aslan.

Aslan stares at not only the two of them, but also Zeroa and Mia, Aslan laughs awkwardly.

“Now, take care of me…?”

* * *

A special education class in charge of Aslan has been established at Rai’s house.

Philia and Abigail don’t get along, but this time they agreed to hold hands.

We didn’t have a separate conversation, but it didn’t matter if we couldn’t do it, so we reached an agreement even if we didn’t talk.

The average grade is higher in Philia, but there are some subjects where Abigail is better. The reason her average grades are lower is that she has near-perfect scores in subjects she is interested in and relatively low scores in subjects she is not interested in.

It’s not long before the exam. It was training, and it was not enough time to hit Aslan’s head day and night.

As Zeroa and Mia, who both participated, took their seats, a quiet learning atmosphere was created.

Philia, wearing her eye protection, sits in the center of her table and pulls out her book.

“I’ll definitely raise my grades. 70 Points? Don’t be ridiculous, it’s easy to get 80 points if you understand the main points well.”

Abigail, who has an average score of 80, looks at her because her words sound like mockery, but she ignores Philia and only looks at Asran.

“Everybody gets 80 if it’s that easy.”

“It has to be easy. If it’s not easy, you’ll die at my hands.”

“I kill half.”

As Philia and Abigail exhaled death, Aslan shut her mouth.

Zeroa asks the two of them while taking care of Mia, who is shivering.

“But is it really possible? It’s hard to raise 30 points at once.”

“It is difficult to raise 1 or 2 points with high scores, but it is not difficult to raise 10 or 20 points with low scores. Also, Zero, you are not at ease.”

Zeroa’s grade was 72 points. Her final grade last year barely exceeded 70, but there was no guarantee that she would pass this exam as well.

“Don’t think too hard. I’ll help both of them and Mia. Just follow along.”

“Don’t talk like you’re doing it all.”

As Philia smiled, Abigail spoke harshly.

Philia, still ignoring her, opens her book.

“I’ll organize the data separately for lectures where grades are guaranteed just by memorizing well. Let’s study ‘Magical Conversion Theory’ now. Where do you not know the most?”

As Filia asked with her kind smile, Aslan, who had been staring blankly at her, looked back and forth between her and her book.

Asran, who rubbed the corner of her book with his fingers as if tearing it off, lifted up her book and showed her cover so Philia and Abigail could see it.

“From here.”

Asran turns the book to show the back.

“This is it.”

“……”

The two are speechless at the confident remarks.

“Huh? Senpai? Why are you like that?”

Mia is embarrassed to see her zero ah holding her by the shoulder, but he smiles softly at her and carries her away from her table.

“Ah! Why?! I told the truth!”

There is a loud noise behind the two of them and the sound of something being smashed.

Afterwards, Aslan’s screams were heard, but the two pretended not to know anything and did not look back.
