Chapter 4: The Visitor
 

As classes progressed smoothly, the number of students wishing to attend lectures gradually increased. Moreover, I became familiar not only with the surface of the town but also with its hidden aspects. Some of the faculty members, including Foar, began to show interest in my magic theory and tried to understand it. At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before teachers capable of teaching my magic theory would emerge. The students attending my lectures seemed to have a deeper understanding of magic.… Read more

 
[SIDE: Lea]
 
Hearing a knock on the door, I turned around while remaining seated in my chair.
 
“Come in.”
 
As I said this, the single door opened silently from the outside. It was a man wrapped in a black robe. One of the few intelligence agents I could give direct orders to.
 
“How was Rocks?”
 
As soon as I asked, the man pulled out several pieces of parchment from the hem of his robe.
 
“As per your instructions, I’ve been constantly monitoring Rocks-sama’s behavior since infiltrating the academy.… Read more

[SIDE: AOI]
 
After I ask my questions to the man called Garonne of the White Ash, he opens his mouth with a confused expression.
 
“…Even if you were the captain of the knights or something, I don’t think we can answer such questions.”
 
Sighing as he says this, Garonne looks at Kalila.
 
“…Have you lost your mind? What’s the deal with this woman?”
 
Garonne cuts off the conversation with me and turns to Kalila.… Read more

 
[SIDE: Garonne]
 
The Kingdom of Verted, one of the great nations. Among its cities, Wintervalley is special. The academy city, home to the world’s top magic academy, attracts people and wealth from not only major countries but various nations.
 
Where money gathers, the darkness of that place deepens. In other words, a clearly denser and deeper darkness spreads here compared to the major cities of other countries.
 
No single organization can rule over such deep darkness, and multiple large organizations have been competing fiercely, repeating intense struggles.… Read more

Chapter 3: Solution?
 

 
Rocks and the two guards were waiting outside, trying not to spread the story. For some reason, Shenley and Dean were also standing nearby.
 
“Hmm, is it over… I hope they’re alive,”
 
Rocks muttered softly, but I couldn’t hear it clearly, so I ignored it.
 
After confirming that everyone was facing me, I asked Rocks,
 
“Why are Shenley and Dean here?”
 
“Apparently, they were waiting for us,”
 
Rocks answered.
 
Shenley stepped forward and began to speak, “We heard that Dean’s friend hasn’t returned since yesterday, so we waited for Teacher Aoi to come back with Senior Rocks.… Read more

 
“H-Hurry up! What’s taking you so long!?”
 
As the man shouts, the boys flinch in surprise and tremble.
 
The magic is soon completed, and the boys, with tears in their eyes, cast their spells.
 
“Flame Arrow…!”
 
“Rock Shot!”
 
The moment they’re activated, a ball of flame and a rock appear in front of the boys and are launched towards me.
 
There’s only one of each, but they’re quite fast.… Read more

 
“Hey, we’re done for today. Let’s pack up.”
 
I tell this to the black-suited dealers, who nod quietly and start moving. Some customers are visibly upset, but neither side wants to get caught. The evacuation proceeds mostly smoothly.
 
The back door is at the bottom of the stairs. If they could come straight here, we might run into them before escaping, but that’s unlikely to happen.
 
However, it’s somewhat concerning that a subordinate who has experienced this many times before is panicking so much.… Read more

 
“This child has been rude. However, as the man from earlier confessed, it seems certain that this is indeed the Nevis family’s hideout. Everyone, please answer our questions honestly.”
 
As I said this, the men looked dumbfounded for a moment, then burst out laughing.
 
“‘This child,’ she says!”
 
“The man from earlier? That guy left through there!”
 
The men laugh as they point to the wall behind them.
 
As the three men standing by the wall move away, a black metal door is revealed.… Read more

Chapter 2: The Underground Casino
 

 
The Nevis family, a yakuza-like organization, runs the underground casino.
 
Among the various illegal groups such as theft rings, unlicensed doctors, slave traders, and violent organizations known as extortionists, they stand out as a particularly powerful force.
 
The Academy City, where wealth, goods, and people from various countries flow in, is overflowing with those seeking ways to make money, regardless of good or evil.
 
In such an environment, it’s not surprising that some would turn their attention to the academy students.… Read more

 
With an uneasy feeling, I walked quickly, trying to track down Rocks.
 
However, I couldn’t find him. I thought he might be attending class, but when Strauss asked around, it seemed he wasn’t even in the academy.
 
He’s probably somewhere in the academy city, but I have no idea where. Would asking a few people help? With that in mind, I tried asking Court and Felter, but all I got was that his whereabouts were unknown.… Read more
