Vacation is over

 

Many students are returning to the academy. It is real that the floating population has increased significantly these days.

 

It was a complicated vacation in many ways, but there was no time to think. Still, my daily life was dotted with training.

 

Meanwhile, fortunately, Ian Fairy Tail successfully acquired the Spear Sword. If things don’t go wrong, the conditions to feed the Demon Thanatos an effective hit have been met.

 

After returning to the academy, Ian was instructed to use the spear sword. I felt relieved when he showed me the power of light by swinging his spear sword in the clearing. It had the minimum power I had in mind.

 

“… … ?”

 

I was walking around the campus. I found Dorothy on top of the building, but it was difficult to talk to her.

 

meditating look. Groups of stars floated up and then disappeared repeatedly. It was one of the starlight magic training methods.

 

It is felt. These days, Dorothy has increased her meditation time a lot.

 

─ ‘… liar.’

 

It reminded me of a conversation we had in Dupendorf. Perhaps it was because of me that Dorothy increased her training.

 

I couldn’t get in her way, so after watching Dorothy for a while, I continued on my way.

 

… …

 

“Isaac.”

 

“Are you here?”

 

Luce Eltania has returned from training in the Mage Tower. I met her at the school gate and greeted her.

 

A happy smile spread across Luce’s face. The sun shone down and made it shine.

 

‘He’s gotten a lot brighter, that gloomy kid.’

 

Compared to the first year, it has become noticeably brighter.

 

… What is this lump?

 

It was like watching a scene from a drama in which a daughter who had been devastated and shady interacted with people and stood up from her pain.

 

“Why are you ringing, Isaac?”

 

“Seeing how big you are, I suddenly felt admirable… .”

 

“What, Dad? Upset… .”

 

Luce grumbled and walked next to me. you don’t know how i feel

 

We headed to the academy dormitory.

 

“Did you have a big accident when I wasn’t there?”

 

“Well, that’s how it happened.”

 

Rumors of Baron Lopenheim’s human trafficking case seemed to have spread throughout the empire.

 

Rumors must have circulated in Hegel’s Magic Tower.

 

“You did a good job.”

 

“depending on.”

 

Luce seemed not to be interested, as if it was just a topic of conversation. It doesn’t matter to him whether someone dies or not.

 

“Let’s have lunch together when I pack my things.”

 

“OK. hungry.”

 

“Isaac, you need to stay with me today.”

 

“You thought so?”

 

“That’s a good answer.”

 

I am the only friend, so I am the outsider Luce who relieves loneliness through me. Since I couldn’t see it at all because of the Mage Tower, the longing for me that I usually harbored would be particularly severe today.

 

There must be a crush on me in that longing.

 

I was also more than happy to see Luce after a long time. I wanted to be with Luce today as much as possible.

 

“ah.”

 

Oh right.

 

“why?”

 

“You have to mentor later. Other than that, it’s fine.”

 

Luce tilted her head.

 

“You don’t do mentoring during vacation, do you?”

 

“White always sweats hard and works hard to improve his skills, but I can’t just do it roughly. Shouldn’t you be helping with all your heart?”

 

Of course, I made it that way. In reality, ‘Hueeng’ is a feast of White’s crying. Still, it’s not wrong because he’s a kid with a spirit of improvement.

 

“You are unnecessarily affectionate.”

 

“Thank you for the compliment.”

 

“Can I follow you?”

 

hmm?

 

“Are you following the mentoring?”

 

Luce nodded.

 

“Then I think it will be a burden… .”

 

I’m a little embarrassed to show the way I teach.

 

“Am I disturbing you?”

 

“It’s not like that… .”

 

“Then let’s go.”

 

A firm tone of voice meaning that the answer is fixed and that you only have to say the set answer.

 

It seemed that Luce didn’t want to leave my side even for a moment, probably because she had been very lonely in the Mage Tower.

 

Luce is not the kind of person who would shamelessly interfere with mentoring, and it is difficult to change her mind, which is already stubborn.

 

‘Usually, Luce is more talented than me.’

 

Rather, it might be helpful.

 

It didn’t seem to matter at all.

 

“Well, okay.”

 

“huh.”

 

Luce answered calmly and turned her head to the front.

 

* * *

 

“You released your mana too violently. It’s not like you’re good at arithmetic and just building a magic circle. You should also pay attention to power control. again.”

 

“yes! Hey!”

 

“… give me a hand I’ll frame it with my magic, so pour your magic into it, yes, carve a feeling, and try to learn that feeling over and over again.”

 

“yes! … suck?”

 

“white?”

 

outdoor training ground. It was a place where few people went out on vacation. Isaac and Snowwhite were mentoring, and Luce and Merlin were observing the mentoring process from a distance.

 

Suddenly, White felt a chilling sensation running down his spine.

 

‘What is this cold feeling from earlier… ?’

 

It wasn’t just a feeling. The chilling sensation seemed to originate from Luce, beyond the back of the head.

 

Luce just watched the mentoring process with a blunt expression. However, whenever White made physical contact with Isaac, he felt a strange chill from Luce.

 

The overwhelming chief, Luce, who only shows a cold reaction to everyone except Isaac. She was also an object of admiration and fear for her juniors. As a junior who thought Luce so much, White was no exception.

 

For some reason, it seemed that Luce’s whispers could be heard in my ears even though we hadn’t spoken a single word.

 

Focus only on mentoring. Don’t set your heart on Isaac. never have a different mind

 

it’s a warning. Like a psychological barrier.

 

Its effectiveness has already been proven in that it has blocked many female students’ love for Isaac. If it wasn’t for Dorothy, Alice, or Kaya, it would be hard to find someone who wouldn’t feel fear in Luce’s eyes, at least among the students at this academy.

 

Meanwhile, Isaac was so busy teaching that he didn’t feel the chill. It was because of the habit of being buried in one thing when you start it. If it’s good, concentration is good, if it’s bad, multiplayer isn’t good.

 

“Oh, no. Continue.”

 

“Tell me if you feel bad. Because if you are sick, rest first.”

 

“yes… , I’ll keep that in mind.”

 

White, who was about to return to Luce, quickly returns to Isaac. A drop of cold sweat ran down his forehead.

 

He even knows what kind of relationship Isaac and Luce are. For no reason, it was inevitable that Luce would care more.

 

“Luce, aren’t you bored?”

 

When Isaac suddenly turned his head toward Luce, she smiled prettily like a beautiful fairy in the world. It seemed that even petals were flying around.

 

The gloomy, heavy air that only White had felt was instantly settled. It was a frighteningly dramatic change in facial expression.

 

“are you okay. Watching Isaac teach is pretty fun.”

 

“That’s it.”

 

When Isaac turns back to White and continues mentoring, Luce’s expression turns cold again.

 

White was dying because he couldn’t say anything to the scary Luce.

 

“hmm.”

 

Isaac noticed that White was conscious of Luce.

 

“Hey, Luce.”

 

“huh.”

 

Isaac turned his head back to Luce. Luce’s face was once again warm.

 

“Do you have any tips?”

 

“tip?”

 

“Something that could help White. Didn’t you feel what level he was? There may be something you can do to help more effectively than I can.”

 

He wanted to give me some good tips for growing white.

 

Even Isaac, who is a great wizard and has the terrifying nickname of the Wonking of Ice, was just a very standard senior when it comes to  education.

 

Luce might have known good teaching methods. So Isaac’s seeking her help was understandable enough for White and Merlin.

 

“Something that might help… .”

 

Luce wondered what the benefits would be to her if she helped mentor Isaac.

 

White doesn’t like it very much. After winning first place in a beauty contest, he used the expression ‘I like Isaac’ as his winning impression. Kids who pretend to be innocent like that must rather hide their foxy nature. I’m going to be on the lookout for myself.

 

but. Anyway, Isaac is working on growing White. In other words, helping White was also for Isaac.

 

In addition, depending on the method of education, the frequency of physical contact between the two could be reduced.

 

Luce got up from her seat.

 

“Let me help you a little.”

 

“… … !”

 

White shrugged.

 

Luce approached Isaac. White forcibly moved the corners of his mouth and broke out in a cold sweat. Because of the tension that surged like a tide, I couldn’t bear eye contact with Luce.

 

“Ehehehe. Lulu, it’s an honor that Luce-senpai will help me… !”

 

White tries to bring out a heartwarming comment.

 

Luce, who had severe social phobia, didn’t frown or spew murderous thoughts like before. While living with Isaac, that mental illness was gradually getting better.

 

But that was all. Luce glared at White with icy eyes, but did not respond.

 

‘scared… !’

 

White couldn’t help but be terrified by the intimidation alone.

 

“First of all, your magic power management skills are terrible.”

 

Luce opened her mouth by selling her eyes fixed on Isaac.

 

“yes… ? Ah yes… .”

 

“The calculation speed is too slow. At least the low class magic should come out right away. Just like a turtle.”

 

“turtle… .”

 

“If it had been in real life, I would have died while casting.”

 

“yes… .”

 

“Isaac even made a frame with magic, but I can’t even properly pour magic into it. It is proof that the amount of training so far is not enough.”

 

“yes… .”

 

“then.”

 

Luce stretched out his left arm in front of him. The black pearl-colored magic stone attached to the Black Sea Empress’s ring emitted a soft light.

 

Chaaa!

 

Beautifully shining water was created in the air, each with a unique shape. The water figures increased one by one, then flew farther away to distance themselves from Luce.

 

All of them were in the form of a killer whale master, Bello, showing off his muscles like a bodybuilder. It was all different.

 

Contrary to his actual appearance, his muscles to show off stood out.

 

“Such water magic in a place where there is no water… !”

 

White admired Luce’s high-density magic and sophisticated magic management.

 

Meanwhile, Isaac was taken aback by the sight of dozens of muscular bello figures. Even though it was made up of water currents, it was a burdensome sight.

 

“Rather than aimlessly shooting, I don’t think it’s bad to record and compare how quickly you deal with targets every day. After that, you will know how to improve.”

 

“All good… , Why does the target look like that?”

 

“Because Bello has become more interested in muscles these days. I suddenly remembered.”

 

Luce thought of her killer whale familiar, Bello, who did sit-ups at her desk every day.
