“How did this happen?”
Karl, standing in the middle of the parade ground, looked towards the audience with a nervous expression.
Did you say that the most fun thing in the world is watching a fight?
Classes 1 to 10 came out in droves when they heard that there was going to be a sparring match.
“what? “Was it a sword that you were sparring with?”
“Who is the opponent?”
“I think you’re an Ikot student?”
“Did you end up sparring with him because he was looked down upon even by the Ikot student?”
Voices of astonishment came from all over the place.
“but. “Because it’s a knife.”
“Yes, because it’s a knife.”
But he soon gave an expression of understanding.
Looking at them like that, Karl protested with an expression of injustice.
“hey! Hey guys .. hey guys! “What about me!”
“You are infinitely fair.”
“And it’s very easy.”
“hey! Let’s bet!”
“Who do you think will win?”
“Oh, that’s nice!”
A knife grabbed the back of my neck.
The other academy students looked perplexed as they looked at the Lumerun first-year students giggling and making bets.
‘It’s a lot different from what I thought?’
In the meantime, the sword strikes! He sighed deeply.
“It’s no use being close, really.”
Grumbling, Carl glanced and saw a male student from Ecoat standing in front of him.
“I don’t know your name yet?”
“It’s a liquid brick.”
“The Brick family?”
Carl stuck out his tongue.
Brick is a family that has served as the leader of the Snow Knights in the Virsen Kingdom for generations.
‘You said the successor’s name is Liquid, right?’
In other words, the boy in front of me was the son of a hero.
There are many bloodlines of famous heroes in Lumern, but children of actual heroes are rare.
“I apologize for your rudeness, Prince.”
“You have nothing to apologize for. And I’m used to that attitude.”
Carl shrugged his shoulders.
“And even if you apologize, you still plan to spar with me, right?”
Liquid nodded to Carl’s question.
“yes. I know that Lumern is very practical. That’s why I’ve been thinking about sparring with a student from the Rumeren Department of Magic for a long time.”
A feeling of victory appeared in Rickid’s eyes.
‘The prince ate a lot of food, but he is still a good person. Well, there are kids like this wherever you go.’
Carl scratched his head while muttering to himself.
‘Anyway, he looks like he’s formidable. How should I fight him?’
Even at first glance, he was an unusually talented person.
In Carl’s opinion, Rickid was a person with the ability to easily pass the Lumern entrance exam.
‘Besides, it would be worth aiming for top grades.’
Slowly assessing Ricked’s skills, Carl prepared a magic spell.
Haviden, who was watching the scene, sneered.
“I will be embarrassed in front of everyone.”
Top-class students from the three prestigious academies are better than Lumern’s middle- and lower-class students.
However, in the public perception, there was a strong perception that Lumern’s students were superior to the three prestigious class academies.
There would be no such shame if Karl were defeated by Rickid, an Icote student, in front of hundreds of people.
“You’re pushing your classmate to shame. “Don’t senior Leo actually think of senior Karl as a friend?”
“Just take a look.”
Leo said with a grin.
Harveyden was lightly impressed by such a relaxed attitude.
Meanwhile, Carl, who had finished preparing for the sparring, spoke.
“Then shall we begin?”
“yes.”
Carl took out a coin from his pocket.
Ting-! Pingrrrrrrrrrr!
The clear sound of a coin being flipped was heard.
Ting-!
As soon as the coin fell on the floor of the training ground, Liquid took out a weapon from subspace.
Whilick-!
Kal grinned as he saw Ricked taking out a polearm larger than his own height and swinging it.
“It’s spearmanship. fun… … “Huh?”

Blah blah blah-!
As the ice aura spewed out from the greatly swung long spear, the sword was frightened and floated in the air.
The floor was frozen solid.
If I had been even a little late, I would have been stranded and could not move.
“The casting speed is different from that of ordinary wizards. “It is indeed Rumern.”
Ricked took the auror step without paying attention to the icy floor and closed the distance between him and Karl.
Carl saw that and quickly deployed his magic.
“Fire Arrow!”
Grumbling!
A bunch of arrows made of flame were created in the air.
Liquid was impressed when he saw that.
‘He’s on a different level from the wizards he’s dealt with so far.’
I can’t believe he was casting so many attack spells while deploying fly magic.
‘He’s definitely good at fighting.’
Moreover, his magic skills were also considerable.
‘I can’t underestimate you because of your lack of magical power. But that’s it!’
14-year-old Rickid has been praised by those around him as a boy with outstanding talent since he was young.
Of course, every Lumerun student has that experience.
However, Rickid was a promising player with exceptional skills.
Sigh-!
Rickid’s eyes flashed as he held the polearm firmly in both hands.
“Avalanche!”
Woe!
As I swung the long spear widely, the eye aura spewed out.
The snow aura turned into a wave and hit the sword like an avalanche.
“Khehe?!”
Carl screamed.
In the middle of summer, Karl’s screams, trapped in the snow, rang out pitifully.
“and… … amazing!”
“I can’t believe the knight made such a wide-area attack.”
“As expected, Icote is not something to be taken lightly.”
Students from other academy looked at Liquid with admiration.
Celia, who was watching the sparring from Class 1, chuckled.
“It’s pretty good. “He will pass.”
“huh. “Your skills are amazing.”
Chloe took her eyes off the grimoire, glanced towards the training hall, and nodded.
“There’s nothing special about Lumern.”
“If it were me, I think I would have defended against an attack like that at least once.”
Some people in Emeral looked annoyed.
At that time, there was a commotion in the back.
“hey! “What if I put everything on Karl?”
“If this happens, the bet won’t work!”
“It’s a crisis! Who is the brave one who will bet on that promising liquid brick and try to reap the dividends? doesn’t exist?”
It was when everyone looked embarrassed by the conversation of Lumerun first-year students heard from behind.
Wow!
“Uuuuu! “Chu, it’s cold!”
The knife that came out of the snow held onto my body and trembled.
Rickid was not embarrassed and took his stance.
‘As expected, it doesn’t collapse like this.’
Ricked exclaimed, adjusting his grip to the spear.
“Sniffle – why is this snowing in the summer? Ugh-!”
Carl, who trembled greatly, looked at Liquid and said.
“surely. “If we fight head-on, we’re no match for each other.”
There was a big difference in capabilities.
But still, Carl grinned.
Then, he opened the subspace and poured out the weapons.
Liquid, who was about to charge at Carl, stopped.
“The wizard has a weapon?”
“Oh. I’m not good at anything, but I’d like to give you some advice as someone who has experienced Lumern before you! “Such stereotypical thinking is not good!”
Gooooooo-!
The sword created magical power.
Then, enchanted weapons floated in the air.
Ricked saw that and narrowed his eyes.
“It’s telekinesis magic.”
widely-!
Ricked lowered his stance as he adjusted his grip on the spear.
Woe!
At the same time, he quickly charged towards the sword.
‘Let’s not think of it as simple telekinesis magic. This person’s skills are at a level where you can’t let down your guard.’
Thinking of getting it over with quickly before I do anything, an aura arose all over my body.
Karl saw that and smiled.
“That’s why they say you shouldn’t be stuck in a rut.”
Weeeeeee-!
The color of the weapon Carl took out changed.
A long sword that turned red flew towards Liquid.
Rickid swung his spear and struck down the long sword.
That moment.
bang! Grumbling!
The longsword spit out high-temperature flames.
“Magic sword?!”
Liquid, with his eyes wide open, deployed his Auror Armor and barely managed to block the flames.
“I’m good at alchemy. That’s why I’m so bad at attack magic.”
Cal took out a crossbow that could be used with one hand from subspace.
“Unlike those monsters, the moment you allow access, it squeaks. Besides, I’m a supporter and not a fighter.”
Clap!
Cal, who was aiming the crossbow at Rickid, grinned.
“I have no choice but to use irregular measures.”
Wow!
Carl pulled the trigger and the crossbow flew.
Rickid struck down the arrow without difficulty.
Moment-!
puck-! Clink. Sigh!
“… … !”
The arrow turned into glass and its contents poured out.
Liquid’s face hardened for a moment at the stench that made his bones tingle.
“poison?”
“I know how to use poison, but I’m not good at using it when sparring.”
Carl grinned and put down his crossbow.
“It’s oil.”
“Suddenly something like oil?”
“therefore. “You’re saying I shouldn’t be stuck in a rut?”
Carl grinned.
“It’s a special oil that I made. It’s extremely volatile, but when it reacts to magic, it keeps burning. Moreover, the stronger the firepower, the stronger and longer it burns, making it a very dangerous oil.”
Carl waved his hand.
Grumbling!
The enchanted weapons floating around changed into magic swords.
“It’s a cheap, disposable magic sword, but if combined with that oil, it’ll be quite painful, right?”
“Huh?!”
Ricked gritted his teeth and widened his eyes.
The magic sword created with the sword’s enchantment magic was aimed at this liquid.
Quagga-ga-ga-gang-!
“Kaaaaak!”
Liquid’s scream rang out.
Leaving Rickid behind, Carl put his hands in his pockets and grinned.
“end!”
All the students at the other academy gaped.
Meanwhile, Chloe was impressed.
“I can’t believe you developed that magic to that level. “The sword is great too.”
“Of all the current first-year wizards, he is the one who makes the most irregular moves.”
Celia clenched her chin.
“You wouldn’t know if you knew about knives. “No matter how much better you are than a sword, if you don’t know it properly, you can get caught off guard and end up in trouble.”
Sword enchantment magic.
Since Leo praised him during the school trip, Carl has continued to improve his enchantment magic.
As a result, they succeeded in randomly turning the enchanted weapon into a magic sword.
In addition, he has also completed a technique that allows him to alchemy the items he enchanted at will.
It was a success in making up for the shortcomings using the tool.
Harbiden widened his eyes.
Carl came down from the gym and gave Chelsea a high five.
“The triumph of meanness!”
“Can’t you say it’s a strategy instead of saying it’s mean?”
Chelsea, who had been pondering Carl’s words for a moment, smiled brightly.
“The victory of small hair!”
“hey!”
“Fine hair! “Fine hair!”
The class 5 students welcomed Karl with a chant.
“Are you really like that!”
Carl grabbed his head and screamed.
Then, he saw Leo looking at him with a smile and grinned.
“How was it?”
“It was great.”
“Hehe. It’s the result of trying to catch up somehow. “Thanks to you, Leo.”
It was Leo who gave endless advice and helped Kalman perfect his fighting methods.
“Did you see it? This is the power of Lumern’s weakest member! “You insolent bastard!”
Chelsea sneered at Harbidon and got angry.
“… … “Take out the weakest.”
While Carl let out a sad laugh, Harveyden snorted.
“I guess in Rumern they say that relying on tools is also a skill?”
“of course.”
Chelsea said confidently, crossing her arms.
“Because surviving means being strong”
Lumern’s students are forced into constant competition and battle not only during their academic career but also after they successfully graduate.
In order to avoid being left behind in this environment, we must mobilize everything available, whether it is tools or strategies.
Chelsea curled the corners of her mouth.
“Are we next? “I’ll turn you into porridge.”
The flames cleared from the training ground and Chelsea rose to the top.
Harveyden snorted as he followed suit.
***
“Leo. “What do you think will happen?”
“what?”
“This fight.”
Cal said, sitting down next to Leo.
“I understand that that guy named Harveyden ate a bunch of crap. “But my skills are clear.”
Habidden was famous not only in the northern region but also throughout the continent.
He was originally a boy who was likely to enter Lumern this year.
“Well, if it were a real match, Chelsea would easily win. “I’m a little worried about sparring due to restrictions.”
Chelsea is a battle mage.
The biggest characteristic of a battle mage is that he can act on the front line like a knight.
But that’s just a fight between many and many.
In a one-on-one fight, it is more difficult to be active than in a melee because you have to focus on each other.
If you hastily engage in a close fight against a knight with outstanding capabilities, you may end up in trouble.
Even if Haviden entered Rumern right now, he had the skills to rank high in the knight department.
The reason Habiden behaved arrogantly was because he was confident that his skills were not much inferior to those one year his senior.
Leo chuckled at Carl’s words.
“Chelsea wins.”
“okay. But the problem is how to win. “If it gets boiling for no reason, it can be frustrating, right?”
The Gigantes subjugation incident made Chelsea famous around the world.
A boy who hasn’t even entered Lumern can gain a lot of fame just by fighting on par with Chelsea.
Harveyden also made that calculation and tried to spar with Chelsea.
“I think it would be a pain if that guy disrupted the joint class atmosphere for no reason.”
Carl scratched his head.
“don’t worry. “Chelsea will win overwhelmingly.”
“what?”
“If you look at his skills, that guy named Habidden is no slouch. But overall competency is not simply determined by skill, right?”
Leo saw Chelsea warming up, saying one- two- three- four-.
Then, Chelsea made eye contact with Leo and smiled brightly and waved.
Leo, who waved his hand at Chelsea, continued speaking.
“Maybe the Knights Department kids should be nervous?”
“huh?”
Carl’s eyes widened as he saw Leo suddenly mention the knight department.
“It’s going to be a bit of a shock.”
***
“Should I say it’s an honor to spar with Chelsea Lwalin, who is famous for subjugating Gigantes?”
“of course. “You can go home and brag to your mom and dad.”
Chelsea laughed and adjusted her wand.
Harveyden grinned at Chelsea and raised an aura.
The moment she saw that, Chelsea’s eyes twitched.
‘Spiritual power?’
At the same time as I thought that, the wind swirled and the wind spirit was summoned.
The wind spirit soon took the form of a horse.
“Hmm.”
Chelsea narrowed her eyes as she watched Haviden riding the wind spirit with a cool move.
“Are you using something good?”
“It’s an artifact passed down from our royal family.”
Haviden curled the corners of his mouth.
An object that embodies a spirit in a specific form.
It was very precious and powerful as it was an item that assisted in difficult elemental magic.
‘A spirit knight. ‘That’s a fact I didn’t know.’
Chelsea, who knew about Harbidon, was worried.
“Okay then. Shall we take a look at your skills? Chelsea Llewallin?”
Woe!
Harbidon charged towards Chelsea at incredible speed.
Chelsea unleashed her magic as she watched Haviden adjust the spear in his hand and charge and thrust.
Woe!
Harvey Den throws a spear at Chelsea at a speed that is almost invisible to the eye.
At that moment, Chelsea’s body floated in the air like a leaf blowing in the wind.
The attack was dodged.
Haviden, who slowed down his charge, grabbed the reins of the wind spirit and laughed as he watched Chelsea come down from the air.
“As expected, it’s pretty good. However, it will not be easy for the wizard to properly respond to this speed.”
Chelsea, who was looking at Harveyden who spoke confidently, smiled.
And then he said.
“Isn’t that how you use the wind?”
