Episode 223
It would also be strange if recruits from three rival academies were placed in one place and no problems occurred.
They are also energetic and successful prosecutors.
Weakening power through conflict is also what other academies are hoping for.
Linosa also did not want to win the championship at the newly joined academy in Baden.
Because even they cannot completely avoid the glare of the temple.
The temple will be dissatisfied no matter how legitimately they won the Academy in Baden.
From the temple’s point of view, it is impossible for the temple to win the championship in a non-believer group called Baden.
Although Linosa will not intervene in the results, they also implicitly hoped for the success of other academies.
Whatever their wishes, the highest level of the academies was concentrated in Baden.
It is not for nothing that they are anxious about not being able to send their children from a distant foreign country to Baden.
Among them, Matesis is the most famous for its swordsmanship department.
It’s just that the difference in level between them and Greta and Loen wasn’t that big, and their reputations tend to fluctuate, so it can’t be said that they are superior.
However, the reputation of the magic department was unrivaled by Greta Academy.
In any case, Greta’s instructors thought they were superior to Matesis these days.
However, Matesis was underestimating the number of recruits for Greta Academy.
They provoked the people at Greta Academy in a not-so-obvious way.
The very next day after arriving at Latona’s accommodation, an instructor at Matesis requested a meeting with the faculty.
It was a meeting between the two academies alone, excluding Loen.
The Matesis instructor opened his mouth with a confident attitude.
“We are requesting a sparring between four people from Greta Academy and our team.”
“You’re hoping to spar with our side?”
“Yes, preferably throughout the competition. Every day, unless it’s someone you’re going to face right away. “It would be better to group upper grades with older grades and lower grades with lower grades.”
“It’s sparring, so with the competition just around the corner… … .”
Instructor Alan expressed a slightly negative opinion at the sudden offer.
This is because I thought it could be a waste of power.
Above all, the bracket has not been announced yet. The bracket was scheduled to be announced through a drawing on the first day of the competition.
Matesis may be the one that fights right away, but is there really a need to spar?
In Baden, it would have been accepted at least as part of academy exchange.
“Matesis’ swordsmanship department develops skills through systematic sparring. Sometimes we hire mercenaries. Jinken sparring is also often held. “I’m just telling you this because I’m afraid you may have lost your senses because you were busy moving and couldn’t spar.”
It is said that the selected members of Matesis remained at the academy until the very end and devoted themselves to training.
Out of all the other academies, they were the most motivated to win.
“If you are concerned that someone may be injured, we will take sufficient precautions. We have two magic instructors on our side, so they should be able to treat you right away. “There will be limits to sparring with four people, so it wouldn’t be a bad offer on Greta Academy’s part, right?”
Of course it was. However, Matesis’ attitude was strangely provocative and there was a part of it that was annoying.
However, it seems that the inconvenience is not the reason to reject a proposal that is beneficial to students.
The three faculty members made eye contact. It was a look in his eyes that asked what to do.
At that time, the Matesis instructor added:
“Of course, I hope to exclude Loen Academy. It would be better for Greta and Matesis to spar together. That’s why I’m telling you this separately.”
“Why is that?”
“Don’t you know why?”
The instructor on Matesis’ side laughed. Of course, I immediately understood what it meant.
It means to exclude Roen as a common enemy.
But isn’t it a bit cruel? Even though it is a competitor, it is the same Baden Academy.
When there were three, it didn’t seem like a good idea to join hands and exclude only one.
Roen may continue to question whether he has any honor or nothing.
Greta Academy has a strong magic department, so it has a strong practical nature.
However, on the other hand, the swordsmanship department had a somewhat rigid side.
The opinions of the three conflicting faculty members then reached a point of agreement. There is no need to cause trouble because of sparring, which can be done without stopping.
Instructor Alan spoke as a representative.
“This is an unacceptable story. We do not wish for disruption. “You can make the same offer to Loen Academy, but Greta can’t accept a sparring where one side is bullied like that.”
“Do other people feel the same way?”
“yes.”
“yes.”
Professor Luxen and Instructor Patricia firmly agreed.
The Matesis instructor shrugged his shoulders.
“Then I can’t help it. I thought it was a good opportunity. However, we will not be making the same offer to Loen Academy. “I hope you are at peace.”
Matesis’ instructor cut it sharply. There was just a strange smile on his lips.
After a while, Instructor Matesis bowed his head and left, Instructor Patricia became angry.
“You’re not making the same offer to Roen? “We don’t need to keep in check, isn’t it!”
I definitely didn’t say that to avoid offending Greta, who suggested it first.
If that’s the case, there’s no way I’d say let’s get rid of Roen.
It’s not like Matesis and Loen are fighting among themselves over Greta. Rather, the relationship between the two academies was quite good.
In Baden, Greta Bay was on the other side, and Matesis and Roen were close by.
In other words, Matesis decided that power could not be leaked to Roen, but it was okay to leak power to Greta.
A formidable opponent that you don’t need to worry about power leaks and that you don’t need to keep in check.
That was their assessment of Greta.

It was natural for the faculty, especially the instructors, to feel angry.
Professor Luxen answered calmly.
“Well, since our starters are seemingly young, they may think that way. “They probably thought it would be a good idea to be prepared since they probably have information about Roen, but I guess they decided it would be a useful force in sparring.”
Instructor Patricia raised her eyebrows.
“Are you going to speak so leisurely, Professor Luxen?”
“What if it makes you uncomfortable? I have no choice but to show it at the competition. It’s just that no matter what they think, we shouldn’t hurt the pride of our students. Friction in the dorms causes fatigue.”
“It can be good to hurt your pride. “Because it will be stimulating.”
Instructor Alan opened his mouth.
“Well, swordsmanship students are sensitive to hierarchy and competition. “It might be a good stimulus.”
Professor Luxen quietly agreed. What he still cared about was Helmut.

It was a natural thing to do at Matesis Academy, but it did not go away quietly.
The Matesis instructor only explained to their selection team that the sparring did not take place due to Greta’s refusal.
The reason was not discussed.
Since we are competitors anyway, I thought it would be better to have some problems than to get along well.
The Matesis School of Swordsmanship followed the logic of power more than the Greta School of Swordsmanship, or even more than any other school of Swordsmanship.
They were displeased with the fact that they had refused to spar with the Greta Swordsmanship Faculty, who seemed weaker than them.
Isn’t this a good opportunity to learn something through sparring?
Do you really think you can compete on equal terms with this side if there is no power leak?
Such dissatisfaction, bordering on arrogance, eventually found a source of contention. As long as you don’t hit it, it’s okay.
With that Maginot Line in place, they moved without hesitation.
Among those selected for Greta Academy, Charlotte was by far the most motivated for the competition and practiced hard.
Even when she came to Latona, Rinosa, and her courtyard, she did not ask for any special treatment.
I just wanted to show off my skills legitimately.
I hoped that I could show the effort I put in at the swordsmanship competition.
But at the same time, I never wanted to be eliminated so shabby and early.
So Charlotte decided to do all she could and hope for luck.
If you meet a potential winner from the beginning, there is a high possibility that you will be eliminated. So, we can only hope that that doesn’t happen in the lottery.
I had at least some faith that Michael wouldn’t go out of his way to do anything.
The instructors did not hide that they had high expectations for her.
Every time we went back and forth, encouragement poured in. That was different from my absolute expectations for Helmut.
In any case, becoming a starter while still a freshman was not something that could be achieved by chance.
Charlotte had skills, talent, and was sincere. Her instructors hoped she would perform well in her swordsmanship competition.
I look forward to the wind.
Charlotte came to the training center early in the morning in order to meet the expectations she had for me.
I was not treated well enough to be given a private training facility.
Even Linosa cannot pay that much attention as it only provides a temporary location.
Each academy was given a spacious common training hall.
However, there was someone who came first today.
Charlotte stopped when she spotted two Matesis Academy recruits wielding swords in the center of the training hall.
Until then, she never thought they had any other intentions.
“Well, this is the training area assigned to Greta Academy.”
“Ah, was that so?”
Robin and Taron, members of the Matesis side, greeted Charlotte calmly. Charlotte responded calmly.
“I would like you to go to the training area assigned to Matesis Academy.”
But they did not go away obediently.
“I’m sorry, but this training center is more comfortable. Our training ground is over there, and the ground is a bit caved. “I saw we had an intense sparring yesterday.”
“We came in first, so I hope we can use it.”
“What nonsense is that?”
Charlotte looked at them with an expression of bewilderment. It didn’t feel good.
“Understand me. “I must have already warmed up, because moving places is a hassle.”
“We’re a little anxious. It arrived later than expected. “I have to train quickly.”
Robin and Taron smiled and chatted leisurely.
It was an expression that did not make me feel embarrassed or sorry.
Charlotte declared firmly.
“It shouldn’t be like that. Please move. Otherwise, it will escalate into a problem between the academies.”
