Perfect new magician enrolls in a magic school in the world 1000 years later, the legendary stronges

"This way! It's going all the way to the back!

It's noisy outside.

The Knights have arrived?

The sound of metal rubbing against each other.

Looks like you've arrived.

I guess so. Does that mean the arena is over... I hope nobody's been sacrificed. "

"I see... because even a Magic Beast doesn't go with a rope."

Looking back, it was not the knight - it was an old man who appeared - who heard a katsunkatsu and footsteps from the aisle.

"Merlin... principal...?

"Why are you here?!

"Hahaha. I did it flashy."

Principal Merlin doesn't answer our questions, and when he approaches us, he slaps his ear.

"Don't go deep into what happened here. Especially when it comes to that book. I'll explain why later."

"What? Eh... no..."

But Principal Merlin won't wait for our response, and when he leaves, he invites knights in.

"This is amazing again....."

"What a mountain of ice..."

"Two students...! Survivor!

Four or so knights roll in.

This is the Knights...

The organization that Cyrus belongs to.

One of them, a leader, comes to me.

"I am Hagel, Commander of the 2nd Division. I came to help because of the rescue from the magic school."

I'll keep my head down for now. [M]

"Um, what happened to the beast...?

"Well then, my men just came in to help and suppressed it. Not even a magician."

It's a bit spiky, but it's good for now.

Dorothy and I are relieved.

"By the way... what is this... ice...?

Hagel looks seriously at the room.

"The other man seemed to be quite a magician..." I often survived such an attack. Is that the magician's egg in London or something? "

Hagel admires us for surviving the ice magic while mistaking it for Keith's.

Well, that's more convenient.

Dorothy said something, but let's keep it down here.

"Still, I can't believe this is magic... huh? What is this...?!

Hagel rushes to find Keith's iced body.

"Dead!? No way, the killer... Guys, who is this guy?

Principal Merlin, who followed me from behind, looks at the ice statue and leaks his voice.

"My teacher, Keith Clift. Was it scattered here?

"?! Really, there were victims?" If we had arrived a little earlier, this wouldn't have happened.

Hagel gripped his fist with regret.

"Gentlemen, can you tell me a little about what happened here?

◇ ◇ ◇

For decades, the Knights' interrogation began with Hagel.

We spoke with some honesty.

Dr. Keith was under the spell of the Dead Spirit, there was a monster noise, and Dr. Cain was seriously injured.

The only thing I didn't talk about was the book that Principal Merlin told me.

"Hmm... I understand. I just don't know why you guys came here. Why did you leave the others alone in this library? On what grounds did you come here?

Er...

Damn, what...?

The rumors in the basement... you won't be convinced even if you go there, because Dr. Keith and Dr. Cain were interested in the basement and there were no two of them - what do you mean you have to go to the book?

There was a magical reaction... no, that meant two students came...

And so Principal Merlin snapped his mouth.

"They were told to look at the library when something happened. There are many precious books stored here before the Dark Ages. We can't just abandon it that easily. --Well, as you can see from this tragedy, nearly half of them have burned out."

Hagel's face fluttered.

"I see. Thank you very much. As a result, we defeated the executioner, Keith, the Great Venus. However, it seems that there are other real killers. Do you have any idea?

Dorothy and I shake each other.

Hagel stares us in the eye.

Are you kidding me? I can't, I can't spot my lies.

I glanced at Dorothy - her eyes were swimming.

Hey! Why are you always jerking off at times like this?

At that time, two knights in red armor appeared underground.

"This is terrible. Quite a magic trail."

"Cases will stop over there and over here."

"You... are directly under the King's command!"

Hagel's expression seemed upset for the first time.

What is it? The King's direct report?

Is it different from the Knights?

Then Dorothy also showed Hagel a frustrated expression.

"Zodiac!? Why are you here?

I speak softly to Dorothy.

"Hey, Zodiac."

Dorothy sighs with a certain daze.

"Ha, I'm glad to hear that, ancient appeal. --Yes, Zodiac refers to the special knights under the King. Twelve of them all. Everyone has a code name named after the eclipse. But I can't believe you showed up here. It's a kind of rumor, but... it's real."

"I see."

Zodiac.

The point is that the state is pursuing the case with all its might.

I can convince you.

The forbidden book, the transfer magician, the ghost magician. I don't think it's just sneak mud.

"We'll take it from here. Please raise the Knights."

Hagel said, "Can you forgive me? We'll investigate!" and breathes.

--I thought so, but I pulled it out unexpectedly.

"I see. Your coming out is too much for us. I'll take care of the rest. I'm pulling you out. Call the people in the stadium."

Ha!

Hagel's men rushed to the arena.

Hagel sighs lightly because he feels my gaze.

"There are cases where it is better to leave them to Zodiac. It is true that there are many points of concern, but... we apologize for our help. Please go back upstairs and heal. I'm sure it's because of you that the damage didn't increase any further. Thank you very much."

That said, we were kicked out of the basement when Pong and his shoulder were slapped.

"Thank you both."

When Principal Merlin catches up with us, he calls from behind.

Dorothy hesitates to ask a question.

"Principal Merlin... why are you here? Three school fights? And you knew Dr. Keith was a dead spirit? I mean, why is there a ban in this place... so the Knights can't talk? Why are they here?

Then the headmaster takes out his wand and spins it around, putting a sound barrier around us.

Quickly... Even when you're old, you call it the inner skill.

"Hahaha. Don't ask me one question at a time."

"I'm sorry. With..."

Yes, Principal Merlin strokes his beard while nodding.

"It's good to have questions. Let's be brief... It was the" Abyss "people you were against. And Abyss is being pursued by a Knights squad... by the Zodiacs just now. Because ordinary knights like Hegels have no right to know. That's not why they weren't allowed to talk."

"So... the Abyss is responsible for everything... killing Professor Cain, killing Professor Keith, and taking the injunction."

But Principal Merlin shook his head.

"Not one correction. Miss Cain is alive. Because he is an excellent magician indispensable to my school. Calling the best healing magician in the country. Let's wake up soon."

Dorothy's face became brighter.

A healing magician...?

A modern magician who can use such ultra-sensitive magic....?

"Well, that's not how it is. Now it's our turn. Tell me what happened."

We told him everything that happened.

The whereabouts of the book, the woman who uses metastasis magic, Dr. Keith...

"Hmm... I understand the roughness. I will talk about the details later, including Zodiac. Now... hey, isn't there a friend waiting for you?

Ah!

That's right! Len, Belle, Masaki! And Loki!

Are they safe...? Not every once in a while...

"Go on. I'll see you tomorrow."
