Episode 74 Unlucky students
"What was that just now?"
Karina asks me a question. What exactly does that mean?
Amane intervenes between me and Karina.
"Karina-sensei, please calm down. Isn't Grimm-sensei troubled? What don't you understand?"
After being warned by the students, Karina takes a deep breath.
"I was a bit excited. I'm sorry."
"It's fine. First, let me explain the magic I just used."
Karina nods.
"The first thing I used was the triple activation of 'Thunder Bowl'."
I explain about 'Thunder Bowl' and tell her how powerful it is.
"I see, it's a magic similar to the attack magic 'Lighting Bomb'."
"That's right. However, in the case of Life Magic, the power changes depending on the amount of activations."
After Karina swallows her saliva, she asks me.
"At what level can you learn 'Thunder Bowl'?"
"It's not that high. It's magic level 4."
Karina smiles. When I see that smile on her face, I know what she wants.
"Actually, it would be better to make sure that you master each magic, and then learn the next magic."
"I know. Please do something about it."
I agree to hand over the 'Thunder Bowl' magic circle. In exchange, I decide to ask for information about the Suigetsu Dungeon.
Karina had been an active adventurer for about ten years. Most of her activities were centered around the Suigetsu Dungeon. Her knowledge of the Suigetsu Dungeon is invaluable.
This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
"Hey, Grimm-sensei. Is there still Life Magic you haven't told anyone about?"
After hearing Karina's question, Amane and the others listen with interest.
"I researched how Life Wizards can fight against long-distance attacks that the students had asked me about. After that, I found out that you can use two Life Magics."
I keep the fact that I became a Sage a secret. The existence of a Sage is a precious existence in the world. If I came forward as a Sage, I would be criticized for being a big liar. And if they found out that I really own the Sage System, the number of people around me who want to use me would increase. You can find that out by reading the autobiography of a person known as a Sage.
Therefore, I can't say that they were created using the Sage System. As a result, it is a way of saying that I own a Magic Book of Life Magic.
"Is that true. Now I can fight Kurotsuki-senpai."
"Unfortunately, that magic can only be learned at magic level 9."
Alisa and the others are disappointed. Karina asks me to show them.
"I'm not quite used to it yet, so let's do it next time."
After saying that, I just tell them what kind of magic 'Catapult' and 'Airbag' are. Amane who hears that has her eyes shine.
"In other words, you can fly in the sky."
It's strange how she can come to that conclusion.
"No, you can't fly in the sky. It's only possible to move at high speed for short distances. It's true that you'll be thrown into the air, but you can't say you can fly."
"But you can jump up to a roof, right?"
"You can do it, but don't do it. The owner of the house will get angry."
I get a little worried. But I think it's foolish to worry about a magic I haven't taught them yet.
"This is the end of the discussion. Now, it's time to hunt OrcKnights. Don't let your guard down."
"Ye ~ s."
Alisa and the others answer in unison. Yukari can also hunt OrcKnights if she uses 'Lightning Bomb'.
Karina is worried, but after Chika fires a TripleThunderBowl, it seems she is relieved when Chika hits the fallen OrcKnight with a QuintBlade to finish it off.
Alisa and the others kill the OrcKnights one after another.
"By the way, is there anything you can do about students who have a talent for Life Magic?"
When I ask the question, Karina thinks with a serious face.
"I want to do that too, but I need to be in charge of Life Magic."
"Jougasaki-sensei teaches Attack Magic and Life Magic, right?"(TN:No, he doesn't 'teach' Life Magic.)
"Yeah. But, it's impossible to change in the middle of the school year."
"If Karina-sensei is bringing it up here, does that mean you're going to take over for Jougasaki-sensei and destroy the face of the vice-principal who brought him in?"(TN:Not his literal face, though that would be great, but face as in honor/pride/etc.)
"I don't mind crushing the vice-principal's face, but it's impossible because Life Magic and Muscle Magic classes overlap in the timetable."
I droop my shoulders.
"Well, hold on, I'll see if there's a way."
I decide to leave it to Karina.
The day's training ends when Alisa and the others are able to instantly kill an OrcKnight.
◆◆◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◆
The following week, the results of training against BlackHyenas and OrcKnights also appeared in the joint training. The monsters they encounter in the 4th and 5th floors of the Suigetsu Dungeon are inadequate as opponents for Alisa and the others. They kill most of the monsters instantly.
Kaizuka and Karina consult and decide to have RedKongs and LizardSoldiers on the 8th floor as their opponents.
"Karina-sensei, those kids seem to be getting stronger with tremendous momentum, but are they receiving any special guidance?"
Kaizuka seems to be wondering about Alisa and the others' rapid ability increase.
"Ah, they're the students taught by Grimm-sensei."
"Hmm, then the vice-principal seems to have kicked out a valuable human resource."
Karina nods.
"That's right. If we had kept him at the academy, many excellent students might have grown up. That's right, among the students Kaizuka-sensei is in charge of, are there any students who have a talent for Life Magic?"
Kaizuka is in charge of the third year.
"That's right. Shiomi and Sasaki should have had a 'C' in Life Magic talent. It seems that they both gave up on becoming adventurers and decided to enter a normal university."
Karina thought it was a waste. However, adventurer is a dangerous profession. And choosing an ordinary profession isn't a bad choice either. They only chose the Magic Academy because they wanted to become an adventurer.
Karina feels frustrated when she thinks about the students who graduated without developing their talent for Life Magic. If only Grimm had stayed at the academy ...
