“–spark.”

A violently luminous bolt of lightning strikes the training dummy golem with a bang.

A sweltering smoke and a scorching smell.

When it clears, there is a dummy with its upper body obliterated and charred to black.

A long-haired man standing in front of it looks at the dummy golem with great emotion.

“…… This is amazing, …… you’re, uh, ………… Noah Akright?”

“Yeah.”

“Hmm. But it’s a terminal one……. Now it looks like you’re still skimming. …… No, I’m looking forward to it. Still a freshman, that’s promising.”

“Yeah, sure.”

“That’s indifferent. There are only a few people I would ever praise in person.”

Rags Redus. Apparently, he is the A-class teacher for Basic Magic Training and is known as a dry teacher. I heard that a guy whose brother is in this academy told that to be careful because Rags is quite a meritocrat.

In fact, once I took this class, I understood what he meant.

What have you been doing? Why did someone like you pass the exam…… next year should be reviewed. Did you use your aristocratic powers? Was the scoring sweetened because you’re a commoner? Do you think you can make it in this academy with that? It’s no fucking magic. It would be more useful to flush the toilet with that water.

–and so on. By the time it was my turn, I was saying these words to students.

Indeed, their power wasn’t flattering in my eyes. At best, they were only half as good as Rufus.

Was this Rufus’s great, or were these guys too subtle? Anyway, the students’ minds were torn apart by the toothless things they said. Maybe it was the opposite of what they expected.

The only people he gave any credit to were me, Nina, Clarice, and the other four, Leo, Monica, Huey, and Natalie. I, Leo, and Clarice were the only ones who were especially willing to let go.

Arthur was disgraced for his messy magic …… Well, it was powerful, so it was just a small talk.

“Oh well. I’m glad to see someone with promise, too. It’s hard to raise them if they’re all small fry. –Okay, next!”

After the first class on the first day was over, we headed to the cafeteria for lunch.

There were a variety of foods lined up in a buffet style, and we could eat as much as we wanted. As expected of an elite school, they don’t cut corners with their food.

We took what we wanted and sat down at an empty table by the window.

“I’m not going to be able to get it right. That teacher is too harsh.”

Arthur looks teased and bites into his potatoes with a polish.

“It was only natural with that magic, though. Unfortunately.”

“Ugh, you’re a tough guy too…… but yeah, you could do with a little more insight into my potential, you know, totally ……”

“Well, that’s what you get when you hide your hands behind your back.”

Then Arthur’s smile disappears for a moment.

— but quickly returns to his original goofy face.

“Haha, you’re a real charmer, Noah. That’s what I’m talking about.”

“No one else is giving it their all in that place…… except this guy.”

I look at Nina sitting next to me.

”Because it’s hard to cut corners with …… summoning techniques, ……?”

“Yeah, but it was awesome! I’ve never seen a summoning before!”

“Really? Well, I hear it’s rare.”

“No, no, no, that’s a compliment from that teacher. It’s great enough.”

“Yes, Nina von Raymond. I thought your summoning skills were excellent, too.”

And then, unexpectedly, a man who was full of good-looking looks came over.

“Leo Albert……”

Leo crackles and claps.

Arthur watches it with a boring look on his face.

“As expected of the Raymond family’s summoning technique. I didn’t expect to see it with my own eyes. Thank you.”

“No, no, your swordsmanship was amazing too. It’s not every day that magic and swords can be combined like that.”

“Ha, that’s very flattering. Thank you. That Mr. Guns you fought in the exam is a lot better than you are. I’ll have to work at it. And…”

And Leo looks at me.

“What’s up?”

“Noah Akright …… I never thought I’d find a gem like you sleeping around.”

“Huh, you have a fair assessment for a nobleman.”

“Ha, I wouldn’t change my attitude for a nobleman or a commoner. It’s just a matter of time before you find out. It’s just a matter of time before you get to know your friends.”

Then Leo laughs happily.

Is this guy real ……? Is he just a good guy?

My view of aristocracy is completely rewritten by Rufus…… It’s not good.

“You’re not bad either. You’re one of the 20 most powerful magic swords I’ve ever seen.”

“Haha, I’m honored to be one of the 20 best people in the world. I’d love to keep in touch with you, by all means. I have a lot to gain from this.”

Then Leo holds out his hand to me.

“Oh. Nice to meet you–“

“You’re so boring, you guys. You won’t be able to deal with me like that.”

And then, unexpectedly, she called out to me again–

“Clarice.”

“Clarice!”

“Hey, would you stop putting yourself in my shoes just because we’re roommates?”

“Oh, I’m sorry……”

“Yeah, no …… not bad, but ……”

“Oh, you’re Clarice Rutherford! Your fire magic was amazing, too.”

Leo next begins to praise Clarice with his hand.

“Hmm, no wonder I’m awesome, I’m an A-list adventurer, right? You’re so strong that you don’t even have to come to this academy by nature.”

“Ha, you’re a good influence on me too.”

“…… What are you, a curious person?”

“Maybe so. Noah and Nina, and you …… something tells me this year, especially our class, is going to be a bumper crop.”

“Of course you are, I’m here. Besides, there’s Noah over there at …….”

“Huh, you’ve got your eye on Noah too?”

Clarice glances at me.

Ah~…… I’m Van’s disciple, so this guy is conscious of it. This guy’s driving force seems to be Van.

“…… well. I hope you’re looking forward to the welcome party. I hope you’re looking forward to the welcome party, though it’ll be Noah and I in the finals. It’s going to be you, isn’t it?”

“Ha, that’s not going to happen. I swear by this sword and I can’t let it defeat me. And then there’s Nina. I won’t let you guys play nice.”

“Hmm, well, I’ll look forward to it. You don’t seem to be weak. I won’t be bored. Good luck with that.”

With that, Clarice leaves the cafeteria with Sta.

It seems that they are already buzzing within the same class.

–Well, I’m the one who’s going to win, that’s for sure.

Then Arthur stands up and shouts.

“How about me!?”

“You are …… a shiny object! I’m excited for you to grow up.”

“Your …… kindness is annoying……”

“I’m sorry about that. …… So, I’ll be around here too. Let’s continue to grow together.”

Leaving a stunned Arthur behind, Leo left.
