After the swordsmanship exam, we had to settle our language and history exams.
　Well, none of it was too much trouble for me or Frank.
　But, well, as I expected, Hermann was sunk.

"Well, master, I'm going to say goodbye to ...... third grade. Please don't forget about me.
　Herman was so lacking in spirit, I thought he had lost his soul.
　And now it's like this all the time.

Didn't I tell you I'd have a year to figure it out?

Thank you ...... From now on, I'll try my hardest not to disappoint my master.

You know how to take care of yourself, right?
　Hermann is really willing to die for it. .......

'I know . If I die, there's no point in trying. I'll do my best not to die.

Oh, oh, .......
　What's that ...... uninspiring helmsman that's so uncomfortable?

Well, lighten up. The test is over in the next hour.

'Really?　What's the test for the next hour?
　I feel a little better.

Well, it's magic. ......
　I said and then regretted it .

''Well, well, the magic test is half practical and half written, so it's ...... oh, it's nothing.''
　Seeing Hermann completely drained of energy, I stopped talking any longer.


Whaaaaat? Now, the magic test will begin. The first half of the test will be a written test in the classroom. Then, when the written test is over, we will move to the training grounds for a practical test.
　Then the teacher handed out the questions and the writing time began .

　The content was basic questions about what it takes to use magic, what the basic attributes were, and how to train magic power .
　Well, I didn't take the class seriously, but I just wrote what was written in the books I read in the past, so it should be fine.

　When the writing was done, we moved to the training grounds.
　As we were moving, I saw the look on Frank's face, and he looked comfortable. Hermann's face was ...... yeah, let's go for it.

　The training grounds is where we usually practice our practical magic skills.
　Most of the time during class, Hermann and I are left alone by the teacher because we can't use magic anyway.
　There wasn't much to do at first!

　I could have joined the practice because I could use magic, but ...... I felt sorry for Hermann, so we stayed at the edge of the training grounds.
　I had some free time, but around the time Hermann became fully proficient in non-attribute magic, the two of us had been practicing body techniques with non-attribute magic.
　That's why I have a strong impression that the practical skills time is fun .

''Now we'll take turns doing the practical test. The content is simple, it's what we always do in practice. From now on, you can cast any spell you like on that target. We'll grade you on power, so fire your magic as best you can.
　Apparently, the format of the test is an extension of what we always do in class.

Then fire your magic at the targets in the order in which they are called. First, Your Highness.
　Now, Sherry or ...... are you okay?　If I did it with all my might, I'd probably break down the back wall as well: .......

'Yes. Okay, then.
　When the teacher called her in, Shelly was not nervous, and with a blank expression, she pointed her hand at the target and shot an oversized lightning spell .
　Hey, hey, hey, ...... the school is going to break down. .......

　With that in mind, as I watched the magic go through the target ...... something unexpected happened.

　No way?
　The Wall has annihilated magic... or at least absorbed it.
　Could it be a magic tool?
　That's great. ...... That's a lot of money there.
　That's just like an aristocratic school.

　Just as I was thinking about that, Shelly looked at me and smiled.
　He's grown up.　Does that mean?
　I nodded anyway.

You're the man. Okay, Frank, let's move on.

I understand.
　Frank, who seemed reluctant to do it after Shelley, made a lump of dirt in his hand and aimed it at the target.
　It was pretty good, too, and it went right through the target.

"Feng.

'Well then, next time I'll go to ...... Mr. Leons, there's no point in doing ......, so I'll go to the next person. So then, "Wait a minute," hmm?

Why do you assume it's not worth it?
　Shelley complained to the teacher.

'What?　What are you talking about?　Oh, you're just trying to escape reality. Well, let me tell you something. Your fiancee is a hack. A hack without attributes. So there's no point in doing it. Just so that's it.


Yeah...... I don't mind being mocked, but if you're going to say something like that to Shelly, you're going to have to get angry.

'Sir, I'm not saying that Leo is incompetent!　You, correct me now!
　As I was about to speak, I heard Shelly yell at me to cover her .
　I panicked and looked at Shelly, and she was red-faced and angry.

I'm sorry about this. So, but I'm telling the truth: ......
　The doctor was in a hurry to excuse himself.
　Well, if you're not good, you'll get your head blown off for disrespect.

'Let Leo try and tell me if it's true or not!
　Leo!　Don't hide your abilities anymore and show this incompetent teacher how serious you are!
　Shelley said and glared at me.

　Oh, oh, ......be, I wasn't hiding it, okay?
　I just didn't get a chance to use it in school, you know?

Let's see it!　I don't want to hear people saying you're incompetent anymore.
　Shelley said, tears in her eyes.
　Oh ...... I made you cry.
　Apparently, I made her feel more painful than she thought she would.

I'm sorry, okay. Please don't cry.

I'm not crying!
　I smiled and nodded at Shelly, who rubbed her eyes and strengthened.

　Then I turned around, my smile disappearing.
"Now, watch and learn, okay?　The "teacher

Oh, yeah.
　The teacher was pale.
　Shelley called me a rotten teacher and I made her cry.

　I guess you're just scared of what's coming next.
　Well, it doesn't matter to me, but since you made Sherry cry, I hope you'll pay for your crime.

　With that thought in mind, I created a piece of lightning magic in my hand.
　It's the same size as Shelley's.
　If I brought all my strength to bear, I might destroy the school.

　I aimed it at the target and fired it out.
　The magic goes clean through the target and vanishes against the wall.

　Are you happy now?　I turned to Shelly with a smile, and she smiled and nodded at me.

''Ugh, it's a lie . It's a lie ...... incompetence, but how can an incompetent ...... be so magic!　You cheat!　Okay. You used a magic tool, didn't you?　Absolutely yes!
　I heard that voice.
　Come on, what's he talking about?

There's no way you can do magic. It's not possible!

'Sir, you need to stop trying to hide from reality and face reality.
　The student you called incompetent can actually use magic.
　Well, your position might be in jeopardy if you admit that.
　I thought I was out of character when I said that to myself .
　But you made Shelly cry, so I have to hold him accountable.
　Well, half the time it's because I didn't show my ability, so I'll forgive you if you apologize to me.

　While I was thinking about this, the teacher opened his mouth.
What are you talking about?　Am I an escape from reality?
　You're kidding me!　You coward!
　You used a very powerful magic tool anyway, didn't you?　Because I know!
　And that recently, some shitty magical tool was invented that allows incompetents with no attributes to use magic.
　You used it, didn't you?　You're disqualified. You are disqualified.

What?　You mean the Demon Gun?　Isn't it obvious that you don't have that kind of thing by looking at your hands?
　And you don't have the authority to expel me, do you?

Oh, shut up!　You're hiding it from us so we can't find it anyway!

'What are you talking about at all ......?　Don't you know better than any of these people that there's no way you can make a magic tool so small that you can't even see it, don't you, the magic teacher, know best?
　A magic tool needs a magic stone, a magic circle and an outer frame at least.
　So it has to be bigger than a magic stone.
　You'd know what that is if you had one in your hand.

''Uh-uh ......''
　So I guess we're breaking the ice.
　A simple apology would have solved this problem.

No, it's not fair!　He's cheating!　I can't explain it otherwise!　You must be incompetent!


　After saying that, the teacher left the training room.

Wait.　Are you kidding me?　He's in the middle of his ...... exam, okay?
　What about other people's tests?
　I was stunned as I looked in the direction the teacher had left.
