Episode 95 Academy graduates

The day after I went to the Skeleton Dungeon with Master Mitsuhashi, Alisa and the others went to the Adventurer's Guild with Taichi. Alisa and the others went to exchange magic stones, but Taichi went to take the promotion test for an F-class adventurer.

Taichi's magic level had risen to '5'. The Life Magic he had learned was increased with 'Blade' and 'Javelin'. It was the ability to barely pass.

However, in order to raise the magic level, the time had come when monsters from intermediate dungeons were needed. It would be nice if it wasn't a no-good task.

When Taichi asked the receptionist for a promotion test, the task was to defeat the goat-human Satyr on the 4th floor of the Suigetsu Dungeon. Taichi was taken to the Suigetsu Dungeon by the examiner.

While Alisa and the others were chatting in the waiting room after exchanging the magic stones, a member of a young adventurer team started talking to them.

"Are you guys students of the Jibik Magic Academy?"

Alisa and the others turned their attention to the adventurers. They were adventurers who weren't much different in age.

"That's right, but do you need something?"

Alisa answered as their representative.

"We are graduates of the academy. I'm Gotou, who could be considered your senior. I heard something that bothered me, so I thought I'd check it out."

"What is bothering you?"

"I heard that the academy will increase the number of Life Magic classes from next year, is that true?"

Alisa and the others were a little cautious. That was because many of the people who asked such questions had a prejudice against Life Magic.

"That's what I heard. We think it's only natural."

Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author.

The senior looked unconvinced.

"Why is it natural? Ah, let me tell you, I'm not against it. I'm just wondering."

"Because Life Magic is also useful for fighting in dungeons. Recently, new Life Magic is increasing, so the impact is great."

It seemed that the senior was interested when he heard about the new Life Magic.

"What are you guys doing?"

From behind the seniors, Ono Tesshin called out to them. It seemed that he called out to Grimm's students because he was worried that they might be getting into trouble.

"Ah, Tesshin-san. We're not doing anything. We're just asking about the academy."

It seemed that the seniors were acquaintances of Tesshin.

Hearing the situation, Tesshin looked at the seniors as if they were idiots.

"You guys are late. Life Magic is on the rise."

"For what reason is its popularity rising?"

"It's multiple activations. Isn't that interesting?"

The Seniors were making faces that they didn't understand.

"It can't be helped. Ah, Grimm-sensei is here."

When Tesshin saw Grimm, he called out loudly.

　　　◆◆◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◆

I noticed the voice calling me and turned my gaze. Tesshin, Alisa and the others were also there.

"Please don't call me out loud. Besides, I'm no longer a teacher ... What is it?"

"Oh, it seems like these guys are interested in Life Magic."

"Heee, that's rare."

"Grimm-sensei. These people are graduates of the academy."

Amane informed me.

"Is that so. Until a while ago, I was Grimm who taught Life Magic at the academy. Nice to meet you."

When I heard about it, it seemed that they were wondering when they heard that the academy was going to increase the number of Life Magic classes.

"That's because it was thought to be a problem that there were many students who graduated without mastering useful Life Magic, even though they had a talent for Life Magic."

The graduates of the academy seemed to be convinced only if they actually saw it, so we went to the training ground.

"First, let's have a look at 'Push'."

Gogou shook his head in denial.

"I learned 'Push' at the academy, so I know it."

"Hmm, have you ever seen a SeventhPush activated seven times?"

"SeventhPush? No, I've never seen one."

I piled sandbags up to the height of a person and fired a SeventhPush towards the sandbag tower. There was a loud wind noise, and the high-speed SeventhPush hit the sandbag tower.

The sandbag tower disappeared while scattering earth and sand as the sandbags ruptured and exploded. It was as destructive as a truck crashing into it.

Alisa and the others started clapping their hands proudly. Gotou and the others looked at the destroyed sandbag tower with a stunned look on their faces.

"This is the true usage of the 'Push' taught at the academy. Life Magic is also profound, isn't it?"

"Y, yeah. It's amazing. I heard that there is also new Life Magic, but can you show them to me?"

I liked humble people like that. If it was the vice-principal of the academy or Gouda, I would never show it, but I decided to show 'Auto Shield'.

The Life Magic was registered with the Magic Agency, so I thought it wouldn't matter if I showed it.

"Then, let me show you a magic that is classified as a defense magic in Life Magic."

"After I activate 'Auto Shield', someone, please attack with the wooden sword over there."

"Okay, leave that role to me."

Tesshin raised his voice.

"Please don't use Muscle Magic. If you do that, they won't be able to see the slash."

"I know. Trust me."

When I activated 'Auto Shield' and signaled Tesshin, he tried to hit me with his wooden sword with all his might. One of the nine D-Particle Shields moved and received the slash.

The slash was blocked even though I didn't even move, so Tesshin looked surprised. After that, a series of slashes were fired at me, but they were all blocked by the D-Particle Shields.

"This is 'Auto Shield'."

Gotou and the others seemed surprised and impressed. I thought I was able to increase the number of people who favored Life Magic with that.
