Magi’s Grandson

Vol 2 Chapter 34

Bittersweet feelings

The lives of the Research Society members have been altered

While I was hysterically feeling responsible for that, we finally arrived at the gate of the Royal Capital.

The students from both the Magic and Knight Academies were waiting there.

Before the training started, the students from the Magic Academy and the Knight Academy were hostile to each other. But now one can see that they were talking to each other here and there.

The fact that I can occasionally hear laughter means they have mutually accepted each other. Although I think this is one of the most important aspects of the training session There are about two groups of four Knight Academy students looking awfully depressed.

And close to those students, there were students from the Magic Academy looking puzzled at the sight.

Or rather, they were all members of the Research Society.

Ah! Your Highness, s.h.i.+n-kun, Sicily, Maria! Thanks for your hard work!

Thanks for the hard work, Alice. What happened?

Well, you see Because we found out how much our magic power has increased, we got carried away using it

And then the students from the Knight Academy started feeling depressed.

Thats why I said not to get too carried away

I just gota littlecarried away. I am reflecting upon it now.

The people in Alices group didnt look like they acted with prudence. I wonder if they only used magic to subjugate demons? And then the Knight Academy students who didnt get a turn became depressed

In the beginning, we followed s.h.i.+n-donos instructions and controlled our use of magic. Even so, we were able to subdue small-sized demons with one blow

But! Because I thought this wouldnt do, in the latter half of the training, we suppressed our magic power considerably!

And by doing that, it looks like you guys hurt their pride even more

That became more evident halfway through the training.

Students from the Knight Academy, just like Kreis and the rest, looked like they also had a high sense of pride. Because of the circ.u.mstances, I wonder if the students felt like they were not at all necessary.

Nevertheless, its a little satisfying, because those fellows were all looking at us really hatefully!

Well It certainly did feel quite good.

Its good to show them our usefulness once in a while. Thats why we didnt prevent our groups from doing so. I am now reflecting on it.

I, on the other hand, did not receive any hateful glances directed towards me

The students from the Knight Academy are they really that starved for attention of girls?

I wonder about the situation of Tony, Julius, and the others.

As for us, I was acquainted with people from our group.

I [Sessha] am also acquainted with some of the people degozaru.

I didnt know anyone from their side, Sir.

Me, too.

Oh, right. Tonys family was originally a family of Knights. He probably got acquainted with them when he was learning swordsmans.h.i.+p in the past.

And they told us that students from the Magic Academy are all weak and only know how to run away! as soon as we met them

Because Im always together with His Highness degozaru, it was my first time seeing it degozaru And then the atmosphere worsened immediately degozaru.

Then, when the time came to subdue demons, we got all serious about it, Sir. And then

Someone who looked like Freed-sans rival was there And because of the rivalry with Freed-san, who is now able to use magic, he got fired up

[T/N: In case you guys have forgotten, Freed is Tonys last name.]

Nevertheless, it was unreasonable for us to use it repeatedly degozaru

Because it broke down the cooperation, the instructor got angry many times, Sir.

Although I wanted to use support magic, I was unable to get the right timing to cast it Even though there were several dangerous situations

In those situations, excitement occurred again, and then got us reprimanded That kind of cycle kept happening degozaru.

That person was a little persistent in regards to Freed-kun, Sir.

I see, a person who was Tonys old rival. And because Tony is now also able to use magic, he got really fired-up. How hot-blooded.

Nn. He has always been like that since we were young. Before I got a chance to respond, he was already charging.

Because he considered you as his rival, I guess it couldnt be helped?

Although we got along really well when we were still young

Eh? Is that so.

I wonder if its because of that? In the past, the person he really liked confessed her feelings to me.

Thats definitely the reason why!

What a cruel thing to do to an adolescent boy!

And so, in the end, we continued to subjugate demons using our magic.

The students from the Knight Academy didnt get any chance at all, Sir!

That really was a little bit dangerous

I wonder if they deemed it dangerous to let the students from the Knight Academy join in on the subjugation. Thats humiliating.

What about s.h.i.+n-kuns group?

As for our group, we had s.h.i.+n and Sicily who kept flirting with each other.

Wh! What are you saying, Maria?!

Th-th-th-th-thats right! What do you mean by kept flirting with each other'

No, you guys did flirt.

Gus!?

You You really arent very self-conscious, are you?

Self-conscious about what!

If that is not considered as flirting, I wonder how lovey-dovey you guys would look like when you are actually flirting?

Ho-how it will look like, you ask

Ahh

How would I know that kind of thing?!

Haaa How easy-going, Sir.

Well, since we were just following s.h.i.+n during the training, there was some kind of cooperation going on.

s.h.i.+n-dono probably had it all under control.

This time, however, s.h.i.+n usually placed a brake on himself.

Since he usually takes the initiative and act recklessly!

Taking initiative and acting recklessly Thats probably how it is

Hmmm? Walford-kun is looking quite depressed?

Eh, its true. What happened?

Ah, its because s.h.i.+n did various things, so hes feeling responsible for us.

Responsible? Why is that degozaru?

Since they asked why I was depressed, I told them about what Gus had said earlier. About the course of their lives being dictated the moment they graduate.

Ah, youre talking about that. Julius and I already knew about it.

We heard it from His Highness degozaru.

I guess its only natural for the both of you to hear it from Gus.

Its probably normal for Thor and Julius.

Eh? So that means our paths has already been decided after we graduate?

Yeah. Im sorry about that, but that seems to be the case

I did it! My future is now secured!

Alice?

An unexpected response came from Alice.

I mean, even though you get admitted to the Advanced Magic Academy, it doesnt mean that your future is set, right?

However, the students from the Knight Military Training Academy can immediately get enlisted right after graduation.

Since that academy is specifically for training up and coming Officers and Soldiers. It is a special Advanced Academy. However, the students from the Magic, Economic and Law Academies have to choose their careers after graduation.

Thats why I said Im sorry. Because I have selfishly took away everyones chances to choose

Sorry about what? Isnt the unit directly under His Highness? Furthermore, its different from the army. Isnt thatsuperspecial treatment? Theres no way I can be a part of that under normal circ.u.mstances!

It is as youve said, its exceptional special treatment.

How awesome, Sir. And I can also be a part of it!

I wonder if this is just a dream

If I tell my family about it, theyll probably be really happy.
