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

Chapter 1: Why Aren’t the Number of Students Increasing?
 

From the beginning, I was welcomed as a senior instructor, but I felt that both students and fellow teachers looked at me with strange eyes. However, as I earnestly gave lectures on magic and exchanged opinions, their view of me began to change.
 
Yet, there was not only the issue with me but also a deep-rooted problem of discrimination due to noble consciousness within the academy.… Read more

Special Original Story: Together with Felter
 

The sun’s warmth was comforting. The sky was clear without a single cloud, and the occasional gentle breeze felt pleasant.
 
Even within the academy, there seemed to be a more peaceful atmosphere than usual.
 
“Ah, Sensei Aoi!”
 
“Hello.”
 
“Hello!”
 
Their innocent smiles and cheerful voices were radiant. Even with just a simple exchange of greetings, these lovely girls in their early teens shone like jewels.… Read more

“…Nice to meet you. I’m Aoi Konominato, a teacher at the magic academy.”
 
As I greeted him with a polite bow, Court quickly followed suit.
 
“I’m Court Hedge Butler. I’m from the Court Highland Federation.”
 
After Court introduced himself with a light bow, Aile spread her arms wide and showed a friendly smile.
 
“I’m Aile Hedge Butler! I’m Shenley’s friend! Nice to meet you!”
 
Following Aile’s bright greeting, Liz and Belle also introduced themselves and bowed.… Read more

Side Story: A Day Off with Students
 

Spending time eating and drinking with Eliza and Strauss at restaurants outside the academy has somehow become a routine on my days off. We usually go to their favorite places, but occasionally we venture to new establishments or famous spots we’ve heard about.
 
However, since both Eliza and Strauss have their own magical research to focus on, we typically only meet for dinner. As for me, although I do set aside some time for research, I have more free time during weekdays, so I rarely dedicate my days off to magical studies.… Read more

Side Story: A Letter to Owen
 

Since entering the academy, I’ve learned about new magic from the academy library and from mages of other countries.
 
However, this magic academy has already applied and combined magic from multiple countries. As a result, the mages here have forgotten the uniquely evolved magic of their respective countries, instead learning the refined magic taught at the academy.
 
In terms of new ideas, I felt that studying the older magic from each country might be closer to my goal.… Read more

 
“I’m sorry, everyone. Could you please open and close the door one by one?”
 
When I asked, everyone looked at each other, but soon Strauss grasped the door handle.
 
Immediately, the door was enveloped in a faint light, starting from the handle.
 
“Wh-What is this…?”
 
To the surprised Strauss, I nodded and answered.
 
“This door won’t open unless you have enough magical power to comfortably use advanced magic. The mechanism is simple.… Read more

 
“…Well, that’s all for today. Until next time, please don’t use today’s magic individually. As you understand, there’s a risk of it going out of control. So, until I judge it safe, its use outside of class is prohibited… That includes you, Headmaster Glen.”
 
As I said this, glaring out the window, Headmaster Glen, who was excited by the discharge, hurriedly nodded.
 
He’s making a circle with one hand and smiling apologetically outside the window, but it’s suspicious.… Read more

Chapter 10: Change
 

 
In the next class, Foar was again the first to wait in the classroom.
 
It seemed the students and Eliza’s group had grown accustomed to Foar’s presence. They took their seats while discussing and chatting with those nearby.
 
Hmm, I couldn’t see Headmaster Glen. Was he not here today? I thought he was aiming for perfect attendance… Oh, there he is. He’s moved outside the window in front. The students have noticed but are pretending not to see him.… Read more

 
“…Are you participating too, Speyside?”
 
When I asked, Speyside uncomfortably averted his gaze and pointed out the window.
 
“…The Principal is also observing, so I thought I’d see what it’s like…”
 
Surprised by his words, I turned my face towards the window and saw Principal Glen quickly ducking out of sight.
 
Ridiculous. The Principal, true to his title, is the most skilled magician in the academy. And he’s here to observe?… Read more
