Magi’s Grandson

Vol 2 Chapter 36

Departing for the Training Camp

Grandpa and grandma ended up partic.i.p.ating in the training camp.

I told everyone before we started the joint training session that day.

Awesome! Magi-sama and Guru-sama will act as our guardians for the training camp!

Come to think of it, we didnt consider any guardians.

As for me, I was busy thinking of someone else and that idea didnt come to mind

Thor shot Gus an unpleasant glance and complained. Or rather, I didnt think to consider it either.

After being out of the wilderness for a couple of months, I have gotten accustomed to being around aristocrats and royalty.

In terms of royalty, theres Gus and Uncle Dis. As for n.o.bles, theres Sicily, Maria, Thor, Julius, and there was also that instance with that arrogant n.o.ble. Because it has become normal for me, I forgot all about their actual status. And when Gus is at the academy, he also seems to forget that he is royalty.

It is because in this world, there isnt an absolute aristocratic system, and everyone can earn a t.i.tle with merits.

And the transportation systems in this world isnt as developed as those of my previous life.

Because it is time-consuming to keep in touch with locals, the job to govern has been left to the Feudal Lord. However, there are some exceptions in certain countries.

Thats why I shouldnt get too accustomed to being around aristocrats and royalty

In any case, its difficult to comprehend what one should be careful of when it comes to the aristocracy and royalty.

Whats that? Does s.h.i.+n want to go to a country where there is neither royalty or aristocracy?

Eh? Ah, you mean Els Independent Commerce Alliance

Thats right, that country the only exception in this world. Els Independent Commerce Alliance has a Republican form of government.

Instead of an aristocrat acting as a Feudal Lord, a Governor is elected amongst the tradesmen during an election. In addition, the President will be elected from amongst the chosen Governors.

Therefore n.o.bles and royalties doesnt exist there. Only commoners.

Although the country is a Republic, the situation of having an elected Governor act as a Feudal Lord isnt that much different from monarchy.

Their circ.u.mstances with transportation and communication are the same.

However, because the elected Governors and Presidents were originally merchants, it is very difficult to negotiate with this country was what I learnt in cla.s.s.

s.h.i.+n-kun Do you want to go to Els?

Eh? Thats not it! I didnt have such intentions!

Sicily started become teary-eyed as she asked that.

Is that so? I really thought that you were thinking of abandoning us and heading off to Els.

Hey, I didnt say a single word to that effect!

This fellow! Hes definitely doing this on purpose! Gus is really showing off his occasional evil face!

Everyone can have a peace of mind. I definitely wont abandon you guys, alright Sicily?

Is that so? I was really surprised.

We cant continue this foolish talk. We need to head on out. Everyone from the Knight Academy has already gathered.

Ye-yeah. Thats right.

Foolish talk Gus also partook in that foolish talk, himself

Recently, Thor has been less reserved. Yesterday, during the Research Society meeting, he said it was a burden

Eh? Is he only like that when it comes to me?

While I was still feeling gloomy, I partic.i.p.ated in the joint training with the Knight Academy.

As usual, I acted as everyones support. The Knight Academy students acted as s.h.i.+elds for the Magic Academy students while they fired off their magic. Then the Knight Academy students finish the demon off.

Because weve been doing it repeatedly, the cooperation has become considerably smooth.

Nevertheless Is there really a need for someone to s.h.i.+eld you guys?

Hmm? What do you mean, Sieg-niichan?

Its neither here nor there The members of your Research Society are all able to fire their magic with ease. Originally, the Knights would act as s.h.i.+elds in order to buy time for Magicians to cast their spells.

Youre right.

Because you guys can use magic without any chants, rather than the Knights acting as s.h.i.+elds to buy time, I thought it would be more productive for them to just attack the demon. Take a look at the Knight Academy students.

When I look at the students from the Knight Academy Ah, they were murmuring Are we really necessary? under their breaths!

Ahh Yeah! Because this is joint training, the other group should also take part.

Haaa~ Really, you No, is there even a need for you to partic.i.p.ate in this training? You have already established that you just by yourself are a force to reckon with.

Even if you tell me that kind of thing It was a direct order from above that everyone must partic.i.p.ate.

Somehow The treatment were receiving has really become identical to s.h.i.+ns

Even though Im extremely unwilling.

Even so You shouldnt say that kind of thing

Even Sicily didnt hesitate to say it!

Somehow, the exchanges weve been having recently has become uniform, and todays joint training ended without any incidents.

Even so, the number of demons hasnt decreased at all. Considering the current situation, I wonder what has become on the Old Empire. In truth, the information we received from the scouting unit yesterday comes to mind.

After the training ended, we headed back to the meeting point at gate of the Royal Capital Huh? The students from the Knight Academy are depressed just like on the first day.

Hey, what happened to them?

Oh, s.h.i.+n-kun. Its because After hearing that Magi-sama and Guru-sama would be partic.i.p.ating at the training camp, I got too excited

Alice-dono obliterated all the demons before the students from the Knight Academy even got a chance to act as s.h.i.+elds.

We also didnt get our chance.

Ahh Im really sorry

She got even more fired-up compared to the first day, huh.

It looks like Tonys group didnt have any problems.

Of course, since this is training, we also understand the role of the Knights.

Thats right, degozaru.

In conclusion, its only Alice this time.

Uhhh Im really very sorry!

With the feeling of the joint training being a success with some failure from time to time, the academy has entered its summer vacation.

The summer holidays has a duration of two months, and there will be no joint training during this period. Meanwhile, the students only job is to show their growth before and after the summer holidays, and were not given any homework.

Although homework was not given out, there is a feeling of pressure of having an evaluation right after the holidays, so the students dont have time to be playing around.

We, the members of the Ultimate Magic Research Society, will be heading off to training camp to further improve our abilities.

However, since girls and boys of marriageable age will be partic.i.p.ating, grandpa and grandma will also come as our guardians. And thus, when I went with both grandpa and grandma to the partic.i.p.ants respective residences, and greeted their parents.

Because heroes came to their house, the people there made a big fuss.

The parents who didnt make any fuss were the ones Im acquainted with such as Uncle Dis, Sicilys parents, and Marias parents. The parents of Thor and Julius were also moved to tears.

Because Sicilys parents allowed us to stay in their territorys mansion, other than greeting them, I also gave my grat.i.tude.

Im really sorry about this. My grandson ended up selfishly using your mansion.

Im really sorry for the trouble.

N-n-no! Please raise your heads, Magi-sama! Guru-sama! I am really very pleased to be of some help to your grandchild. In addition, this is for the benefit of the world. Rather than being trouble, I feel that there is no greater honor than to have some part in this!

Thats right. Im really delighted to be of help. Since s.h.i.+n-kun is doing this to save the world and also training the next generation, I am happy to cooperate.

Both Cecil-san and Irene-san are happy to cooperate in this training camp. However, when they say it like that, it makes me really nervous

I wonder if thats really the case Because if you put this child in an environment where he can act freely, his bad habit might come out

Hohho It is as youve said

Grandpa, dont go affirming it!

Well, Ill be sure to keep an eye on this child. However, if something were to happen please accept my apologies in advance.

Grandma! Please trust your grandson, even just a little!

What in the world are you saying! When I look back on all the things youve done until now, how can I trust you! Honestly, why dont you take care of yourself more?

Ah Nn, Ill make an effort probably?

Haaa, you really make me uneasy

Grandma released a deep sigh.

Gu-Guru-sama, s.h.i.+n-kun is a really gentle child. I dont think he will do something unreasonable

Thats right. he went all-out and did his best for Sicily, I dont think hell do something strange

Naive, you guys are being too naive. The moment this child thinks of something, his bad habit will come out and hell immediately follow through on it. Furthermore, the things he comes up with are things we will never be able to comprehend.

Although Cecil-san and Irene-san defended me, grandma immediately reb.u.t.ted them.

I-is that really how it is?

Yeah. Thats how it is. If Im not mistaken, the defensive accessories you guys are wearing are also made by this child?

Yeah, it is. This accessory has saved my life many times.

Eh!? Is that the truth, Father!?

Ah, because I didnt want to worry Sicily, I didnt tell you about it. When I was returning from my visit to our territory, I had several dangerous run-ins with demons. If it wasnt for this magic tool, I would have been in serious trouble.

When I heard about it from my husband, I was really grateful for s.h.i.+n-kuns kindness. Please let me say it again, thank you very much, s.h.i.+n-kun.

No, theres no need for that. Im glad to be of help.

Do be able to help someone gives a good feeling. I wonder if this will advance to a good direction?

Is that so, Im really glad. I am really grateful that the accessories this child made has provided you with help.

I think so, too!

After using that magic tool, what are your impression of it?

My impression of it? Well, I thought as expected of something the grandson of Guru-sama made, its remarkable

Im not talking about that kind of impression. Im asking what you thought about the magic tool when you used it to defend against demons.

That is To be honest, I thought that theres a Heaven and Earth level of difference between what is being sold to the general public. Ive never seen such a magic tool before.

How long did you think this child took to make that magic tool?

If Im not mistaken, it was made it instantly

While Cecil-san was speaking, he suddenly became stiff.

Thats how it is. This child can make such magic tools without taking any time at all. In addition, it was on a whim. Thats why it cant be helped that I have to monitor him at all times.

Ahh! Cecil-san has fallen silent! Pl-please do your best!

Thats how it is. Therefore, as much as possible, I want to keep watch on him so that he wont do anything reckless. However, please prepare yourself in case something happens.
