This is a memory from when I had just met Kushina.
“Ibuki-kun, what do you want to do?”
It was a vague question.
However, those deep purple eyes were incredibly pure, looking straight at me.
So I faced her directly.
“I want to join the [Prim-Libra]!”
I spoke of my dream to Kushina, who was sitting on the sofa with her knees together.
“Well…”
“Um, Ibuki-kun.… Read more
Most people would be nervous under the gaze of such a large crowd, but Misha spoke into the microphone without a hint of hesitation, her words flowing smoothly.
The students gathered in the cafeteria were captivated by her dignified demeanor and clear voice, hanging on to her every word. Before we knew it, time had flown by, and finally, she paused for a breath and smiled.

“We have to get through this forest and climb that mountain?”… Read more

On this day, there was an exhibition of magic-related products for magicians and merchants held once every six months at a venue in the royal capital.… Read more
“Shall we wait by the entrance for the monsters to come to us?”
Shizuku suggested, pointing with her borrowed, old staff.
“If we can kill ten monsters at the entrance, we can leave quickly.”

Good vision equals lifeline, so overdoing it is just right.
“Anyway, that’s why it’s ‘Separation’ and [contact]. But I might need to pay the price of Umbra with Kushina here, so please take care of us.”
“No problem.”
Yuika replied with a skilled lie that could be taken as either “I refuse” or “don’t worry about it.”
Impressed by her skill, I added,
“Well, I doubt it’ll be as intense as today.”
“Really…”
“Thanks for always helping me.”… Read more
“…You really don’t understand a woman’s heart.”
Yuzuriha, shaking her head with a sigh, suddenly looked at me with pity.
“Listen, this is simple. In other words…”
Just as Yuzuriha was about to enlighten me, she stopped mid-sentence.

“Yuzuriha-san?”
“…Hold on a second. Is this a chance to…?!”…If I do Suzuha-kun a favor here, and bring her back to my side again…then when those Amazoness ruffians try to cause trouble, I’ll have the Suzuha-kun card to play…Not a bad plan…”
“Yuzuriha-san…?” … Read more

It suddenly dawned on me.
That’s right, my objective was the diversion.
I open the pocket watch engraved with the mark of [Nega-Messiah]—which serves as a membership badge—.
The designated 10 minutes had just passed.
I turn my eyes towards Hinata-chan once more.
“Y-you… how dare you…”
She glares at me with teary eyes while wobbling to her feet.
Her bright pink eyes, usually filled with gentleness, were now swirling with emotion.… Read more
Chapter 2: Going to School
As the morning sun began to rise, a faint light appeared in the once-dark sky. Shion Ichinose finished his basic training, repeating elementary magic of various attributes. He drank a mana recovery potion and rested for about five minutes before picking up the sword he had brought from his dormitory room.
He was about to try a new spell he had been studying and experimenting with for the past few days, poring over academic books.… Read more
