The purpose of this exchange camp is for the Magical Academy of King's Landing and the Empire to interact and improve each other's strength.
　As a part of this, a "joint class" will be held first.
　As the time was approaching, Cynthia, Avril, and I headed for the auditorium.


Thank you for coming all the way from the King's Landing ...... to the Rosangrila Magic Academy.


　The teacher from Disalia Magic Academy who was on the stage thanked them reverently.

"First of all, let me tell you the schedule for the first day of this exchange camp: .......

　As I listened to the teacher continue to explain, I looked around.

　Next to me sat Cynthia, followed by Lara and Marise.
　The auditorium was large, with a total of sixty students from the Empire and King's Landing seated in it.

　Among them was Eerik, the man who had attacked me at the entrance.
　Apparently, he had already recovered from earlier. There must be a healer or something stationed at the school.

　Eriq is still looking at me with a hostile stare, even though I was unable to stand him.
　He doesn't look at me explicitly, though.
　He's just glancing at me, but it's obvious.
　He never learns.

"At ......, we will begin the first program of the exchange camp. "At , I would like to begin the first program of the exchange camp, 'Joint Classes'.

　When the teacher bowed, the students from both schools clapped.

　Let's see what kind of class will be held at .......
　Let's see what you can do.

"Now, I would like to give a lesson on 'production magic'.

　The teacher of Disalia Magic Academy on the stage opened the textbook.

　Production magic.
　That's not a field I'm very interested in.
　If you're going to use production magic, perfect magic is probably better suited than faulty magic.
　But I wonder what the level of their class is like.

　I heard everyone unrolling their textbooks.
　By the way, the textbooks used at Disalia Magic Academy are distributed to the students of Rosangrila Magic Academy beforehand .......

　On the other hand, I didn't open the textbook, but crossed my legs and listened to the teacher.

First of all, what is production magic?　Eryk, can you answer me?
"Yes.

　Eerik stood confidently as the teacher appointed him.

As the name suggests, production magic is magic that creates and sometimes processes items such as swords, shields, ...... and even potions. It's relatively easy compared to combat magic, but you have to be very careful because you need to stabilize your magic output and it can fail and explode.
"Good. That's correct.

　Well, you're not wrong in the big picture. It's just that it's easier than the combat version.

　In any case, why did Disalia Magic Academy choose production magic as the theme of their exchange camp?
　I don't mean to belittle production magic, but compared to combat magic, it is inevitably quite simple.
　I don't think it's a topic we should bother to study when the two schools are together. .......

So let's study potion generation. From the previous page: ...... Oops, sorry, I thought there were students from Rosanlea Magic Academy here today. Please open your textbooks to page 108.

　The students from Rosangrila Magic Academy hurriedly opened their textbooks.
　On the other hand, the Disalia students seemed to have already opened the pages before the teacher said.

In order to produce potions, you need a source material. What kind of materials are suitable for that? ...... There are about three, can anyone answer?

　When the teacher asked the question, all the students raised their hands at once.
　They were all students of Disalia.
　On the other hand, none of the students from Rosangrila Magic Academy could raise their hands.

"I can understand two of them ......, but I can't understand the third one .......

　Marise looks frustrated.
　Even the honor student Marise can't answer.

　I'm not sure what to make of it.
　What if they're .......

"Yes. And you there, Mr. Ark.
As for the items used to make potions, one is holy water. The second is a kind of undiluted liquid called potion liquid. And the third is the divine nectar said to be obtained from the trunk of the ...... divine tree.
"Correct, Mr. Ark. The first two are well known, but the third one is not so well known. The third one is not very well known. It is difficult to obtain the divine honey, so it is not practical, but it is important to know ...... about it.

　When the teacher said this, the student called Ark looked at us with a proud look on his face.

　Hmm. What the student is saying is not wrong either.
　However, from my point of view, there were a lot of things to be puzzled about.

"Huh?　Can't any of the students of Rosangrila Magic Academy answer? That's not good. You need to study properly. I didn't expect the level to be so low.

　A teacher with a prickly tone.

I didn't expect your level to be so low. The second and third year students are also studying it, focusing on attack and defense magic. I think it's wrong to teach students such an unrealistic and inefficient method of using ...... divine honey.

　Marise, seemingly at the end of her patience, stood up and challenged the teacher.

But, sir. It's written in the textbook. It's on a different page than the one you're on. And it's basic stuff. Isn't it wrong to use that as a shield and an excuse, no matter how much you haven't learned?


It's .......
Please sit down. We will continue with the lesson.

　The teacher said, and Marise sat down with a hint of frustration.

"Now for the next problem. In order to use these material items to create potions, we need to use magic. Magic such as "Create" is well known, but there is another kind of magic that exists, though it is a little more unusual than ....... What is it?

　The teacher continued the question with a mocking look at the students from Rosanlea Academy of Magic.

　I don't like it when people get carried away with this.
　Besides, my dear friend, Marise, is feeling frustrated.
　I'm not going to sit back and do nothing.

I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one.

　The teacher rolls her eyes.

"Are you blind?　Guess me now.

　I raised my hand and challenged the teacher.

"Are you ...... Kurt? I've heard a lot about you. You may excel in offensive magic and warding magic, but do you have any knowledge of production magic?　Okay, Kurt, answer me this.

　In a testing tone of voice, the teacher guesses me.
　The teacher seemed to have been informed about what I had been doing.

　And from the way the ...... teacher talked, I guess it was a trap to choose production magic as the theme of the class.
　In the exchange war, Wangdue had shown its strength, so they probably thought that they would have a bad time with battle magic.
　So they decided to focus on production magic, which they thought we were not good at, to undermine our confidence.

　That's the Empire, dirty.
　But ...... seems to have underestimated me.

In order to create a potion, you could use the three items I mentioned above plus the spell 'Restoration'. This spell is normally used to heal, but if you put ...... healing magic into the item, you can get the effect of a potion. It's also inefficient, and most of what you're saying is wrong.
"Ugh. ......

　The teacher's face contorts.
　I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I think it's a good idea.

　However, ...... I memorized the textbooks they use in the big library just now.
　At that time, I also grasped the level they were learning.
　I went to the trouble of lowering the level of the textbook to give them the answer that the teacher wanted.

It's the right answer. But what do you mean by inefficiency?　This is also written in the textbook. You can't be too crazy. ......
"Huh?　Well, let's give it a try. Hey, let me borrow this water.

　I leave my seat and walk up to the podium where the teacher is standing.
　I pick up a bottle of water on the table, perhaps to rehydrate during class.

"You don't need to use holy water, potion solution, or divine nectar to make potions.
"What?
Even if it's nothing special, I'm going to show you how.

　I grabbed the cup and put a lot of pressure on it.
　I'm not using any magic. I just put my magic into the water.
　Then the water glowed green.

Oops, I put a little too much pressure on it and it turned into a hypo-potion instead of a potion. Is that not good enough?
"No, that's ridiculous ......!　There's no way you can make a high potion out of just water!

　The teacher snatched the glass of water out of my hands.
　The teacher grabbed the glass of water out of my hand and used an appraisal spell to see what the liquid was.

　Then his eyes widened to the point of popping out of his head.

"Oh, my God!　It's really a high potion!　This can't be!　Could it be that it wasn't just water ......?　No, what was placed here was definitely water. And I don't think it was switched. ......
I don't think there was any swapping. If you want, I can give you another demonstration.　Oh, yeah, there's a pond on the school grounds. I can turn all the water in that pond into high potions.

　It's a waste of holy water, potion liquid, and divine nectar to use them to make potions.
　If I had a drop of ...... nectar, I could produce a hundred servings of elixir from it.

But why ......?　You think you can use production magic as well as battle magic ......?　No, I didn't hear that!
I'm relatively bad at production magic, but I'm still far ahead of you. If you thought you could give me a run for my money with production magic, you're pathetic.

　The teacher's face contorted in frustration, and he gritted his teeth.

　--The teacher's face contorted in frustration and he clenched his teeth.

　The teacher's face twisted in frustration, and he clapped his hands.
　It seems that the students on Rosan Lira's side are applauding me.



"You just made a hypo-potion out of water. You're overreacting.

　But I don't feel bad about it.

　I slowly walked back to my seat, listening to the sound of applause.
