I'm ... nit...

I'm going to tell you the truth!

I spread my arms and said that out loud.
I spread my arms and said it out loud, but the guys didn't notice.
Even Robert, the serious man, looks like he's just as stupid as I am.

"Magic is not for everyone who wants it!　It's difficult for the villagers in that area to even get their hands on a magic book. At least you guys are blessed to be able to put yourselves in this environment. Most of you are from a noble family somewhere, right?　So I don't understand. You hothouse people, you know?

Of course, they still have a question mark in their mind.
I guess they don't even know what I'm talking about.

'--so I'll tell you!

The place was quiet.
Everyone was listening to me,

Vel said.
He said that as it settles into the abyss, it becomes more attractive to those around it.
From what the headmaster said, I suspect it's because his 'presence' grows.
They can't ignore my presence.
It's distracting.

''Do you know why the state and the aristocracy continue to invest so much money in this academy?

I glared at Robert.

'Robert-kun?　Does that make sense to you?

But Robert seemed to have lost the luxury of thinking about it because of my intimidation.

I'll tell you why. The reason for this is because we need good mages like you. Then why?　You think I'd want a good mage like you?

I asked them in a low voice.
But no one said anything back.
Most of all, the principal and the teachers here know that.
But it doesn't matter to these people who have a job as a teacher.

"-because they want their lives.

I didn't give my students a chance to think.
Even if I gave it to them, these guys still can't see the reality.
They probably plan to live a life of pleasure and propriety after they reach high positions.

''After saying this much, you still don't understand?　Huh but I'm sure you guys are already aware of that. It just doesn't feel real. Now I ask you, have you ever heard of Greberg?　What do you think, Robert?

Yeah, I know that country.

Isn't that right?　So do you guys know how many good mages there are out there and what happened to them as a result?

But when I asked them that, I didn't see any fear in them.
So either they don't understand yet, or they don't think realistically.

And then one of the students said to me, "I know what you're talking about!

'I know that one too!　You were attacked by a dragon heart, right?　But isn't that a rare occurrence?　I don't work for those places, so it doesn't matter!

''........I see, it doesn't matter....... So, assuming that my point has been communicated to some extent, let me show you guys what reality is.

Apparently, some of them are starting to notice.

"Reality?

Robert asked me.

'Yes. 'I mean, why would a country or a nobleman want magic?'

I turned back and weakened the restraints on the two Imperials.
I didn't untie them.
I just removed their white arms, which were wasted to make the lessons easier to conduct.

Arms, legs, head and torso pinned tightly together, unable to move.
That's it.

'You said it had nothing to do with it?　So how do you explain this situation?　It wasn't my fault, okay?　Wherever you are, you can get involved. That's especially true if you serve a country or a nobleman. I've been an adventurer, and I've visited and traveled to several countries. But I've never gotten out of there without incident.

Well, just two things.

'And this time, unreasonably, you've been caught up in an Imperial assault!　You know what I mean?　It doesn't matter what you think!　The world is always unreasonable!　And when that unreasonableness hits, you say that you have nothing to do with it, or so you say!　No, you can say it all you want!　But I'm telling you. Your 'irrelevant' words are like a flimsy piece of paper!　To this world? .....

I pointed my hand at the snake man's right arm.

'This!　You said it wasn't about you!　It's the truth of those words!

Then, in his head, he invokes the ''Inverted Prank [Pole]''.

''The Pain of the Grudge (Phantom Pain)!

I used my magic on the snake man.
I won't let him live.
You'll get what you deserve for hurting Toa.

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

The snake man's face, which had been so poker-faced, distorted and screamed.
His body tensed up as the intense pain hit him, and he looked upwards as he arched his back.

''This guy messed with my guys. Therefore, you will get more than what you deserve. You guys can stand there and watch!　You're interested in it, right?　Then it should be fun!　You ready?　Magic is not a tool for your self-aggrandizement.　It's a way to kill people!

It's not!

Then Robert said so.
You can see something like confidence in him, although he is slightly shaken.

I'll just admit that I have guts. Or are you a reckless fool who misunderstood the situation?　Tell me ... what's the difference?

Then Robert foolishly glared at me.

'Magic ... is also about saving people. Magic isn't just about killing people!

I could only sneer at those words.

''--[Annihilation [Delito]!

'Gooooooooooooohhhh!'

I decided to answer Robert's words with an action and unleashed a spell on the snake man's right arm.
Then the arm instantly separated into countless square blocks and scattered with light.
This is a magic that reversed the magic [Infection (Pandemin)].

''Guh! .....

At that moment, blood splashes from the tip of the snake man's shoulder.

''Heal (heal)!

And then healed the snake man's wounds.

'Surely magic isn't just for killing people,'

As he said this, he looked into Robert's face.
Then he looked frightened.
No wonder, because I saw the truth of magic right in front of me.
But I just did what Robert-kun told me to do.
I destroyed the arm with magic and then healed it with healing magic.

"You're right, you can indeed save people. Like you just showed me?

Stop it!　Not anymore!　Besides ... didn't you promise not to use that anymore?!

That's when the headmaster interrupted me.

'Could you not interrupt me, please?　And as for the abyss, I'm a party to it. I don't need an ignorant sermon.

Then Patrick emerged from a gap in the crowd.
Sarah and Yui are also next to him.

'Nito don't do this anymore. Doing this won't help you, will it?

I'm not sure...

Sarah and Yui are glaring at me.

'Patrick, don't you think you're overreacting a bit?　This is just ... well ... isn't it?　My advice.

I glare at Sarah through the gap in my mask as she looks like she's about to say something.
Then Sarah opens her mouth.

'Those eyes ... yes. It's already dyed in half of them. But this magic power........I see.......that's what it was. I mean.........you were originally--

Don't-- stop asking questions. I don't like to be seen as objective.

Sarah's a little too condescending.
She speaks flippantly and often for not giving answers.

I ignore Patrick and resume the class.

"Just in time. Patrick's hometown of Radshausen, which you all know was attacked by the Empire, and I happen to be there. I was there by chance and annihilated it instead. But if you were there, what would you have done?　What would you guys do if you served a country like Razhuisen, if you were attacked by a country like the Empire, and you were ordered to deal with it?　Are you saying it doesn't matter again?!

I looked at the student who said 'nothing to do with it' and then checked their expressions.

This isn't extreme!　This could actually happen!　The country of the Durmscales Empire was said to have waged a war in the past that engulfed the entire continent. And in recent years, we've learned that the empire has been secretly acting behind the scenes. As the world knows, it is the existence of the "King's Shield". But the empire, which had been quiet until then, suddenly attacked the royal capital. I don't know the details because I'm not interested, but this is clearly a sign that the Empire has reached a turning point!　A country that hadn't made a move before, and now they're storming here?　Isn't that just plain crazy?

I took out the 'Executioner's Axe' from the different space storage.
Then, as I approached the snake man, I swung it down to my other arm.

''Gooooooooohhhh!''

The moment I cut off my arm, blood splatter flew out.
I use the "wash" skill to remove the blood splattered on my body.
That's when I noticed that Robert's expression was even tighter than before.
I noticed that Robert's expression was even more tense than before.
No, it's not just this guy.
All of the students' faces are dark, and they all look as if they are about to vomit.

''Huh........cruel?　But from now on, you guys might have to do the same thing I just did, you know?　With power comes evil. So what if the country you serve does evil and the Heart of the Dragon appears there?　They basically kill everyone who comes into contact with them, don't they?

I readied my big axe and swung it at the snake man's legs.
Then two legs danced in the air.

"Hmm?

They cut your foot off and you haven't responded?

Apparently, the snake has forgotten to scream.
There's no life in its eyes.
Did the first magic work too well?

When you graduate, you will go on to your own paths. Will you choose to be a researcher or a teacher?　That would be a little better, wouldn't it?　But once you have the power, you have nowhere to run!　I'm sure everyone wants a mage who has graduated from a magic school, especially one who is a wizard. It's a different story from the adventurers who have no education. It's a good idea to have a good time with them, or do you want to hide your identity like me?　But if you don't have the strength, you'll die in the wild one day, won't you?

Then the Imperial woman spoke up.

'Kill him!　If you're going to kill me, just get on with it!　What do you want to do to me, hurt me!　Kill me now!

I slowly turn around.

'Shut up. Losers don't even have the right to choose how they die. You will wait for death to come to you.

I'm glad I sent Toa and the others back to the dormitory first.

'This woman was ready to die!　And out of fear, he asked for death!　You know what I mean?　That's the reality!

I pointed further to the snake man and told him more plainly.

'You too!　It means you never know when you'll be on our side!　You never know what's going to happen next!　But this is the world. Peace cannot last forever. Countries are already wary of the Empire and expect something to happen soon. In fact, some nations have asked me to help them destroy the Empire.

I looked at the Imperial girl.

'Shall I torture you and make you tell me what the Empire wants?　Hmm?　Huh ... just kidding.

This guy wouldn't know anything about it anyway.
If the Empire had a plan, I don't think they'd send someone here who knows everything.
These guys would be discarded anyway.

'Okay?　You people are just a bunch of peaceful bastards who don't have a clue what's going on.　Growing up in a warm(lukewarm) environment, and being so protected, you don't see the reality!　What do you think it's all about vs. the school!　This isn't a practice game!　It's a system that allows our investors to sort you out so that they can recruit you better!　The assessment has already begun!

This is a bit of a digression, but that's okay.
It is clear that these guys are playing into the hands of the powers that be.
They should be made to face up to their current situation and admit, without reason, how wrong their ideas are.
The quickest way to do that is to 'show them'.

'These two said they came here with orders to kill my people. In reality, they're just discards. These guys themselves probably understand that and are here. Loyalty is a beautiful, silly thing. But you will be one of them!　It's very possible!　Because the 'pieces' are born for less, right?　We can invest in the academy again and produce new mages. That's all there is to it.

Do you want to add a little more to that?
Huh ... it's like a simulation game event.

"You are the same as the meat from Yoisstein that they eat every day!　You have been put under the system, you learn magic to die, and you become mages to die! --

-That's not true!

Then Sabrina's bastard started screaming again.

'Huh ... what is it this time, sir?'

I'm fed up with this guy.

I'm telling you that's just your prejudice.

It's true. That's what magic is. Isn't that why the teacher forbade it?　Because too much magic creates war.

That's not what I'm talking about!　You have no idea what you're talking about!　They are not pawns!　He's an excellent student at our school!　And you too?　Mr. Nito?

The headmaster said this as if to convince me.
But I've been hurt by this filthy person's 'deception' many times before.
But I don't feel any malice towards this guy~.
So you believe?

"Blind faith ... stupid, isn't it?　It's very human....

I ignored the principal's worldly words (yomai goto) and ended the 'class'.

''--【Goddess Blood Tears 《Dies Bradley》!

The goddess of grief appears in the sky above and drops tears of mercy on the dying snake man.
