“Concentrate. Just because you’re a sorcerer doesn’t mean you can’t neglect your martial arts. You’ll always need to have some bare-knuckle combat experience.”

The short-haired female teacher wrinkles her brow as she crosses her arms and exclaims with a grim face.

Her name is Betty Algort. She is one of the teachers at this academy. She is the teacher in charge of this class–the martial arts class.

Martial arts are essential against humans. It is best for a sorcerer if the match is decided by magic alone, but there are often situations where you have no choice but to rely on your bare hands. I’ve been fighting monsters for a long time, so this is not a common situation for me.

“It’s natural for a mage to learn martial arts, regardless of weapon type. It’s natural for a mage to learn the art of fighting, regardless of the weapon type. But of course, other mages will have to deal with this as well. It’s a very good idea to have a good idea of what you’re looking for, especially if you’re aiming for a knighthood.”

Well, it is true that it is not enough to just shoot magic everywhere.

It’s a good idea to use magic after luring them into the alleyway when fighting with the old man in Nina’s place, for the purpose of not involving the ordinary people around.

It’s not a problem if you are a sorcerer with a type of magic that can be restrained on the spur of the moment in a crowd, but a sorcerer who specializes in attacking would not be able to use magic without thinking about the impact on the surroundings.

”Ouch……!”

“Hey, you okay?”

“I’ve never done any fighting because I’ve always relied on my …… summonses……”

Next to them, Arthur and Nina are doing hand-to-hand combat.

The first time, the teacher didn’t teach them anything in particular, saying that she was going to see everyone’s strength, but only taught them the importance of martial arts, and each of them had a mock fight in the pair that the teacher decided on.

My opponent was …….

“Wow, you’re …… good……”

“Yeah, sure.”

The girl who gets her butt in front of you – Natalie Collette.

She is one of the most popular people in Class A. As she uses a bow, her body is not as thin as it looks, and she is surprisingly sturdy. She is also rather tall for a girl, and each attack is heavy.

“Can you stand?”

I offer my hand to Natalie.

“Hmm, thank you.”

Natalie grabs my hand and stands up.

It reminds me of Rufus brushing my hand away.

“Well, it’s only been two days, yesterday and today, but I thought Noah’s magic was remarkable. …… I didn’t expect him to be able to do so much, even martial arts.”

“It’s a good idea to use it. I have a spell in my magic that is similar to body strengthening, and in order to be able to move through that magic without any problems, I need a strong body. It’s kind of a byproduct of that. It’s not that easy to win against someone who has seriously mastered the bare hands,”

“That’s pretty impressive around not saying you’re going to lose…..”

Natalie sighs, looking a little exasperated.

“I don’t think Natalie is too bad, you know? I think it’s a good job, even though it’s a relatively long-range magic.”

“Well, that’s why I’m not able to use my bare hands for this……”

— and the next moment. Natalie’s spinning kick to the bottom step comes flying in.

I avoid it by flying lightly, and then I catch the next straight left and right hand away with my right.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

”Phew!”

A straight right hand with his full strength.

Covering it up, he pinned it under his armpits, tangled his arms under his elbows, and twisted it up forcefully.

”Ow, Ouch!”

“Nice surprise. But it’s not going to work on me.”

“I gave up……!”

Natalie slaps my arm.

I gently let go of my entwined arms and Natalie falls to the ground again.

“Ha, ha, ha ………… if only I could use magic ……”

“Oh, you’re good at magic?”

“Of course! I’m from the prestigious Colette family. My magic is second to none! No matter how strong a sorcerer you are……!”

“Nice. I like people who have confidence.

“Like ……–! I mean, you can’t say that kind of thing so easily!”

“No, I don’t mean that deeply……”

Natalie turns away, looking a little angry.

“Nah, I’m sorry about something…..”

“All you have to do is understand! Some people just get it wrong!”

“Haha……”

Then the bell of the school building rings just in time. It’s the bell that signals the end of classes.

“It’s the end of today’s class. We’ve seen what you can do. I’m sure you’ll be able to find a few that are more appropriate for your level next time. Dismissed.”

“How did you do, Noah?”

“Well, I’m not really good at that than witchcraft.”

“I don’t think so, though, after seeing Natalie lying around so many times.”

“What about you, then?”

“Me? I’m, well, I’m pretty good at fighting.”

Saying that, Arthur patted his arm.

If it was just bare hands, I might be able to have a good match with Noah too, huh?”

”Ha, what are you talking about, sorcerer? Unless, of course, your magic is the magic that blocks the opponent’s magic.”

“Haha, there’s no such thing as a cheat spell–“

“Freshman yeah yeah!!!!”

“!?”

Suddenly, an oversized volume of shouting can be heard from near the entrance of the training grounds.

It is so loud that the air trembles and everyone present quickly covers their ears.

The voice – at the entrance, a large man with a huge body that must be nearly two meters tall was standing in a human position with his arms crossed. Beside him, a sleek ponytailed woman also stood with her head in her hands.

“What the…… you have a really loud voice. ………… Hey, hey, what’s that?　What’s the sideshow?”

“I don’t know.”

The big man grins as he looks around at the A-class freshman, almost all of them in the place, and then he grins.

”Challenge time!”

“Huh……?”

“Show me your soul! Rock magic–“

“Nah ……! Hey, hey, hey, hey!”

Shouting out loud, the big man slams his arms to the ground.

An intense glowing magic reaction. A magic circle that floats on the ground.

Everyone in the place understands on the spur of the moment. We’re about to be —- attacked!

“Knock up impact!”

A moment later, countless rocks rose up from the ground and attacked us.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
