47-Episode 13 What a simple test



'Yea, if you ask me, that's certainly true...'

 At my words, Colette looks like she's huffing and puffing.

''Of course, if the result of failing is to die as a result of failing, then it would certainly be desperate. .........Could it be that the entrance exam here is death if you fail......?

 If that's the case, you'd have to really hope for it.

'No, I don't!

 Oh, man. No?

Why is it a bit of a shame that you're not...? I don't want to risk my life for a test....

 The test so far hadn't been as taut as it could have been, and I thought that was about right.

'Even if I died, that would be the time, wouldn't it?
Isn't that a bit excessive, don't you think?

 Colette exclaimed and then let out a breath with a slightly sunny face for some reason.

''.........Talking to Arel-san, I started to feel ridiculous for being so nervous at the level of an entrance exam.......''

 Then he brought his clenched fists in front of his face and muttered a spirited, "Okay,

Thank you very much. I think I'll be able to do my best!

 Then he ran to the venue.

'Hmm. I'm not sure, but it looks like we've solved the problem for now.

 I'd better get a move on.
 I've got four more exams to go.

 It's a bit more modest than red and blue magic, but it's very useful for farmers and sailors.
 It's not as simple as red or blue magic, but it's a useful spell for farmers and sailors, so the demand for it is high.
 I'm sure that's why there were as many examiners in the exam room as there were red and blue.

'Mm. It looks like it's Collette's turn next.

 She stands in place and shouts.

'Willwind!'

 The wind has rolled in.
 The wind pressure caused a four-wheeler with sails like a sailing ship to move slowly.

'It's passed,'
Yeah, yay!

 Apparently, all you have to do is to be able to move that four-wheeler.

 ......................What a simple test!

 I thought it would be a reasonably difficult test from Collette's appearance, but that was not the case at all.

 No, maybe that four-wheeled vehicle is made of steel and is extremely heavy.
 ........Yeah, I'm sure it is.
 I have a feeling that it wasn't much of a breeze that she woke up, but it was probably just my imagination.

 Colette noticed that I was looking at her and ran over to me.

'Thank you! Thanks to Mr. Arrell, I was able to pass the test!
Yeah. Good for you.
Yes!

 After a while, my turn comes around.

'Huh? Are you going to take the exam, Arel-san...?
Didn't I just tell you that?

 I stand in place with an astonished Colette at my back.

 Well.
 If that four-wheeler is made of steel, it should be this powerful.

Tornado.

 The laterally generated wind vortex headed in a straight line to the four-wheeled vehicle--

 Zugong!

 --I blew it to pieces of wood.

 





 I was leaving the examination room of the Green Academy and was about to head to the next room when Colette came running after me.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I think it's a good idea. How can you even use such a powerful green magic...?

 And then Kite and Kufa came along.

Oh, there she is! Hey! Why are you going off on your own!
That's right, Master! Please don't leave me!

 That's probably because you guys have been arguing for a long time.

''To Kaito-kun, Koofa-chan........? Why are you here...

 With Colette rolling her eyes behind her, Kite and Kufa crowded me.

'So, in the end, which one do you choose, Master! Of course, it's red magic, isn't it!
'No, you don't! It has to be blue magic!

 So I'm not going to choose one over the other.
 Naturally, I'm going to master both of them.

''What are you saying?!

 That's when Colette suddenly shouted.

"?

 I didn't expect her to raise her voice, and Kite and Kufa were stunned.
 Then Colette pointed at me and said.

''For all intents and purposes, Arel-san's choice is green magic.......!

 ........This is going to be even more troublesome again.
 That premonition soon came true, and the three of them began to argue with each other.

'You're the one who's talking, Colette! Green magic is even more humble than blue magic, it's not worthy of a master!
''Hey, blue magic isn't plain at all, unlike green magic! It's rather elegant and graceful artistic magic!
Don't treat me like I'm a simpleton! How useful do you think green magic is to people........! If it weren't for the green magic in our village, we wouldn't have a bad harvest and no one would be able to eat a full meal!

 It had devolved into a three-way race.
 Naturally, I left them alone and headed to the next exam room.





 After that, I had come to the last black academy after I had passed the exams of the yellow academy and the white academy.

''This is quite a stagnant place again, isn't it?''

 Unlike the other academies, the entire campus seemed to be covered in an eerie darkness.
 Even though it was only daylight, it was dim as if it was twilight.

''It's almost abandoned.''

 The school buildings were all old, with cracks in the stone walls, covered in vine grass, and broken windows.
 They may not have been cared for at all, or there were weeds growing here and there, and some mysterious items were left everywhere.

 Black magic deals with dangerous magic such as darkness, death, or curses.
 It might be said that it is exactly the right atmosphere for it.

''Hm? But I don't see what looks like an exam room anywhere?
