But we are not defeated by defective magic!　You can run away from me here in fear, if you want, okay?
No way.

　I let go of the screaming man and I held the ball in my left hand.

　........Yeah.
　I'll keep the use of body strengthening magic to a minimum.
　There's no need for me to get serious here, you know.

''Then sensei, I'll throw it, okay?''
Throw it any time.

　So, let me just throw it out there.

Yeah.

　I threw the iron ball like I was going to do a pebble far away.
　Only..........Here again I was wrong.


　Zgoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!


　Because I was wrong again.

"What?

　The boys' mouths are half open.
　I lightly throw an iron ball, which stretches straight up and sticks into the trunk of a tree at the edge of the schoolyard.

''Ki, the tree is going to fall down!

　Oops, I shouldn't.
　I hurriedly cast a repair spell on the tree where the iron ball was buried to prevent it from falling over.

　Hmm.

I guess I used a little too much force.

　It's not easy to take it easy.
　Twist your neck.

What's going on here...

　The boys who had started the fight sat down on the ground heaving at the sight.

''Oh come on, there's no need to be so depressed,''
''I thought I would definitely win this competition........this can't be happening.......''

　He was mumbling a lot of things and I couldn't spin any more words.

　Earlier, I threw it with my left hand.
　But my dominant arm is my right.
　It seems that the mistake was using my non-dominant left hand, thinking that I shouldn't fly too much.......

''Oh well........''

　It's just a child's play, even if it's a class.
　You can't get more serious than this.

'Hey, kid!　What the hell did you do?!

　As I was about to go back to the line of people, Desmond came running up to me, bloodshot.

''Well sir. Your face is close to mine.
"I don't care about that!　Why the hell did that ball go over there?　Me ... or rather, if you were to search the whole world, you wouldn't find anyone who could do the same thing as the little boy!
''Well isn't that because the teachers haven't used magic before?''
'Magic...?　Does that mean you can use magic to throw an iron ball farther away?　Come to think of it, I thought you were moving in a rather inhuman manner during the exam... that time too?
Yes, sir.

　It seems that the physical enhancements that everyone used a thousand years ago aren't the norm in this world.

　I continued to talk to Desmond, who looked doubtful.

It's a magic called body strengthening. Using this, it is also possible to dramatically increase muscle strength and speed.
Such dreamy magic...?
'Yes. Watch me for a moment.

　I used my Rise Power to build up strength in both of my legs.
　And with the same momentum, I kicked the ground and leapt.

".........

　Desmond's eyes widened.
　The school building of the Rosan Lira Magic Academy I jumped high enough to see the roof of it.
　It raises a cloud of dust and lands on the ground.

''How's that?　Sounds easy, doesn't it?
""I don't think so!"

　Not only Desmond, but also his classmates in the schoolyard were in agreement with him.

''A wizard is a great wizard.......I don't use magic. I don't have any talent. If only I could use my magic, I wouldn't have lost to a dragon.
Have you ever fought a dragon before?
It's a metaphor. How could I possibly meet a mythical creature?

　Honestly, I think Desmond could take out at least one dragon just by learning to use magic.

　Besides.

"Mr. Desmond. I think you know how to do magic, don't you?
"...what are you talking about?　That's why I don't have any talents...
That's right, if you want to reach the top, it might have something to do with magic color or talent. But anyone can use minimal magic.
No, of course not!　I thought magic was only for the chosen ones!

　Desmond shouts out.

　Oh well, that's what this world was.
　We all came to a magic academy where we could use magic, so I almost forgot about it.




　I taught Desmond the basics of magic.


"Then try it.
Well then, shall we go?

　Desmond activated Rise Power on both of his legs and leapt in the same way as I did earlier.

　
　The rooftop of the school building.............but it was just barely reaching the second floor.

'Oh ... it's flying!　I am the magic...!

　Desmond's voice bounces around as if he is excited.
　But then the fall began.

'What am I going to do?　If we don't, we're going to crash into the ground!

　...Is the landing a bit too tight?
　I get right underneath Desmond and give him a gravity magic gravity spell.
　Then Desmond's fall slows down as he gets closer to the ground, and he lands smoothly and quietly.

'How's that?　Teacher. You can do magic.
'I didn't think it would be this easy...'

　Desmond didn't feel it yet, and his face became a blur.
　Seeing this, the other classmates started to fuss.


''Say, what was that all about earlier?''
And you don't look like you were chanting?
It's a magical formula I've never seen before!
I want to use it!


　My classmates are rushing over to me.

'Hey, hey, don't push it, don't push it,'

　I'm sorry....
　I'm going to have to teach her some body strengthening magic to stop this mess.

"Professor Desmond.
Hmm. I know what the boy is going to say.

　Desmond nodded as they looked at each other and indicated.

　That's right.
　I'm just a mere student.
　No matter how many other students - or rather, including the teacher - have knowledge of magic, I think it's a good idea to teach them in lieu of the teacher.
　And we're in class right now.
　It's a different story from what happened with Lara and Marise.

　And I'm basically only interested in making myself stronger.
　So I was going to say no, but I'm glad Desmond was quick to understand--

"Teach yourself to the fullest!　Never mind about me!

　...Apparently he didn't understand.

'Fuu.'

　Exhale.
　Well, it can't be helped. I guess I'm being punished for being a little pissed off at child's play.

Well, let me show you how to use it again and then I'll show you.
"'Yes!　Please!


　Afterwards.
　At the end of the class, all of his classmates were able to use simple body enhancement magic.
