Magi’s Grandson

Vol 2 Chapter 33

It unexpectedly became a big problem

Alright, with this, todays training has ended. Lets go back to the Royal Capital. Good work, everyone.

After witnessing the trios magic power, Sieg-niichan somehow managed to gather himself together and announced the end of todays training.

Although I backed them up a little, everyone almost had enough strength to subjugate a large-sized demon on their own, however

The male team of the Knight Academy students; Kreis and the others had gotten depressed while Miranda was shocked at what had been revealed. And because of this atmosphere, I think the Knight Academy students didnt believe they would be able to take down a large-sized demon.

On the other hand, the three students from the Magic Academy were delighted that their magic power has increased more than they had expected. Nevertheless, because the students from the Knight Academy were disheartened, they kept their mouths shut.

As a result, a strange atmosphere filled the surroundings.

Chris-neechan, who could no longer withstand the tension, reprimanded Kreis and the others.

You people need to put a sock into it already. Even though youre just students, you have already taken down a large-sized demon. So instead of being dispirited, you should reflect on the previous battle and correct what you think you should have done better. Arent there a lot of things you still need to improve on? Or rather, if you do not reflect on those things, theres no meaning to this training.

Maybe because of the fact that Kreis and the others are considered Chris-neechans undercla.s.smen, she spoke to them harshly. Maybe theres no need to be partial to ones alma mater. Or rather, she can understand how Kreis and the others are feeling.

I wonder if this also has something to do with the darkness of her past?

It is as you say. Theres a lot of things we need to reflect upon and improve.

Oh, as expected of the top students from the Knight Academy, did they switch gears?

During the previous battle, the preemptive magic attack was very effective.

Thats right. And the demonized bear received considerable damage from it.

Ive heard that demons can use Body Strengthening Magic, but because of the magic attack, I didnt see any signs of it.

Or rather, the problems lie with us

As expected of the top students from the Knight Military Training Academy. They immediately began reflecting on the previous battle.

As I thought, we shouldnt have rushed towards victory.

Youre right. Since you guys are the top students from the Knight Academy, theres no problem when it comes to battle. However, no matter who it may be, the battle is not decided until the very last moment.

Understood. I have definitely realized it. I nearly lost my life

In this late hour, Kreis looked like he recalled what almost happened and s.h.i.+vered.

As for me, I thought Kreis would definitely be killed.

Me, too.

Thats what I thought, too.

And then you guys probably diverted your eyes, right? Although I understand how you feel, but no matter the situation, you must never take your eyes off demons.

Yes.

Nevertheless, the magic Walford-kun used to save Kreis was awesome.

Ahh, can magic spells really be shot with such precision?

No, I dont know a single person who is capable of pinpoint magic accuracy. The majority of the Magicians aim at larger targets. I didnt think it was possible for a guy whos right next to me to be able to do so, but to be able to manage it that well

Youre right, I have never seen it done before either.

s.h.i.+n. You, how wide of a distance can you shoot magic with such pinpoint accuracy?

Sieg-niichan turned to me and asked a question.

Since you asked didnt you once visit the vast plain where I practiced magic?

Yeah That place with the strange topography

Yeah, that place Thats right, when I was practicing there, I could pinpoint magic from about 500 meters away?

500 meters!?

Yeah, while using visual strengthening magic. Any further than that, its impossible for me to pinpoint.

I didnt think it was that much of a big deal because in the other world, people are able to shoot with precision at a greater distance But theyre making a youre impossible face again.

What youre trying to say is that that distance is a no-brainer

Yeah, because I was seeing it as though it was right in front of my eyes. And then I placed my hand on where I want the shot to be fired

Hand, you say You were really able to pinpoint your shot

The left arm as well, I aimed at the spot where its power was at its weakest

Alright! We shall continue to regard s.h.i.+n as someone abnormal!

Sieg-niichan summarized everything with a brief sentence.

What the h.e.l.l is that!?

While I was about to voice my complaints to Sieg-niichan, I heard voices coming from the Magic Academy students, Gus and the rest.

So you mean there wasnt any problem with us?

The spells Your Highness and the others pulled out were wonderful. To be honest, because the power of the spell was so great, it stopped moving.

It is as you say, the power was so great I wonder if this can still be considered training

Even I was momentarily late in following instructions. But then again, what in the world is that? Is the current standard of the students in the Magic Academy that high?

To be honest, they are about equal to the members of the Magic Division Or rather, they give an impression that they have already surpa.s.sed them. s.h.i.+n, you, what did you do?

Eh? It was concluded that it was my doing? But it was indeed my doing!

What, you say Its because I belong to the same Research Society with these three people. I only taught them the same method grandpa taught me to practice magic?

Nn. I didnt lie about it. I only taught them how to imagine magic spells differently.

Exactly how many people are part of that same Research Society?

Everyone from the freshmen S Cla.s.s and two people from A Cla.s.s, so twelve people.

So what youre saying is, in three groups the students from the Knight Academy will become very depressed

Yeah well probably have to check up on them later.

Hmm, whats this? We have been grouped together with s.h.i.+n?

That kind of reaction is a little

It is quite the unexpected

What do you mean grouped with me! And why are you guys puzzled over this? Sicily as well!

Anyway, let us hurry towards the gate of the Royal Capital. Since our group went deeper into the forest than any other group, well probably be the last to return.

Sieg-niichan let the comment about being grouped together with me through and conveyed that we need to hurry up and return.

Has being grouped together with me become a derogatory term?

While I was walking depressedly and stricken with shock, Sieg-niichan asked me a question.

Hey, s.h.i.+n.

What is it, Sieg-niichan?

What kind of Research Society did you guys join? Research on attack spells?

No, because of what Gus and Sensei recommended, and what my cla.s.smates concurred with, I started my own Research Society.

You made you own Then? What kind of Research Society is it?

Even if you ask me what it is Its a group where everyone will master magic together That kind of Research Society.

It really has no distinction whatsoever!

I think so as well.

So as of now, they are using the practice method taught to us by grandpa, and I am teaching them the way I imagine magic spells.

The way s.h.i.+n imagines magic spells! Thats it!

What is?

Nothing really. Even if they use the practice method taught by Merlin-sama the capabilities they displayed is nothing a first year can accomplish. Since s.h.i.+n is teaching them the way you imagine magic spells, doesnt that mean youre teaching them your magic spells as well?

Nn~? I wonder if it is like that? I mean, a persons imagination differs from one person to another. However, when they cast the spell, it would closely resemble my own

That might be how it is. Nevertheless, it is also a fact that the abilities of the Prince and the others have improved.

Well, I dont know the abilities of any other Magicians

Well, in the first place, even before you were admitted to the Academy, you were already taught how to use magic by both Merlin-sama and Melinda-sama In addition, the reason you enrolled was to make friends and learn common sense, so its natural for you not to know the abilities of any other Magicians.

Ah, I know the abilities of the students in the academy. Thats why, even if its just the people part of the Research Society, I want their abilities to increase. Its this kind of situation.

If Schtrom did not appear, it would have been satisfactory for everyone to increase their abilities at their own pace, and they would not have reached this level.

Hey I want to ask something of you

What is it?

That The practice method the Research Society is doing Is it okay if you teach me as well?

Nn, its fi

Hold up a bit before you answer, s.h.i.+n.

When I was about to answer that it was all right, Gus cut me off and asked me to wait.

Why?

Siegfried, Im guessing that you are part of the military forces.

Yeah, well.

About Merlin-donos practice method, its fine if you learn it since it seemed to be have been the mainstream in the past. As for the part about learning what s.h.i.+n teaches students as part of the Research Society; his way of imagining magic spells the worst case scenario would come about if it were taken for military usage.

Th-that is

Merlin-dono lamented the decrease in magic power of current Magicians compared to the past. And as Melinda-dono had said, not everyone should be capable of using the same magic as s.h.i.+n With that said, theres a high possibility that the neighboring countries might remark upon it.

Yo-youre saying it might become a diplomatic dispute?

Diplomatic dispute!? The magic spells that Im teaching?

*** You are reading on / ***

Even right now, its considered as borderline because s.h.i.+n voluntarily taught the friends he made in the academy for their own safety, in which Merlin-dono and Melinda-dono has accepted s.h.i.+ns intention.
