“What happened in just one day…”

Rebecca, who had heard our story and came in to teach her afternoon class, put her hand on her forehead as if she had a headache.

Kai, Camille, and I laughed awkwardly.

Although there were some unfair aspects, the incident did get bigger.

It must have been so bad that even Rebecca heard the news.

“I was offered a 3-on-3 winning streak.”

It is said that the professor of fire department personally suggested it.

“That guy is so excited…”

The professor of the fire department laid out the plank as if to encourage active fighting.

He was very belligerent in nature, perhaps because he was half-hearted.

But it’s 3 vs 3.

First of all, Kai, the main character of the incident, and I will be automatic participants.

“Then me too…!”

“Camille can’t do it. …because it’s not good for your emotions.”

Camille, who heard about the unfair misunderstanding her younger brother had suffered, decided to join the war.

Rebecca rejected him.

Due to the nature of blood magic, you will be using magic that deals with blood.

“Because last time, there was a wizard who fainted after seeing magic.”

It is said that the magic was so shocking that some students fainted.

Even if it is magic, its basis is blood, so it is said that its color, stickiness, and pungent iron smell cannot be hidden.

People who are weak-hearted or not used to blood might faint.

“…Baran, can you help me?”

The name Baran, which Rebecca reluctantly called, was the name of a Mohawk furry.

“Yes.”

He answered willingly.

This person may have a bit of a different taste, but is he really a good person?

“It’s a good opportunity to let the wizards know about the water sign.”

“…”

cancellation.

Anyway, somehow, the three of them, including Baran, decided to participate in the duel after class.

Rebecca looked at me intently.

“Magic, is there anything you can use?”

A tone of voice that suggests not much expectation.

It’s been a day since I arrived at the rooftop.

A period of time where it wouldn’t be strange if I couldn’t use magic.

But, I was able to use magic before I came to the Magic Tower.

His expression changed as I reached out and created a decent-sized ice cube with my hand.

“Ice magic? It’s definitely pink…”

I didn’t intend to hide it, I just showed it to Rebecca, but she was flustered.

“Then really two aptitudes… No. Okay. How big can that ice be?”

“Big?”

I didn’t really plan on making it big.

Because I wasn’t using ice magic for attack, I was just using it as an ice purifier.

Why make it so big?

It doesn’t even fit in the cup.

I slowly poured out my mana and increased the size of the ice.

When I simply tried to increase the size, it felt like the ice was growing in a disorderly manner, like a icicle.

Before I knew it, a long, needle-like ice cube that was longer than my arm had been created.

“Do you still have some Mana left?”

“Yes.”

Ice magic didn’t cost as much mana as I thought.

Even if I used up all my mana, I thought I could somehow use my internal energy.

“Okay. Now let’s make ice using more mana. With the idea of making ice that is as cold as possible.”

“Um…”

Honestly, I don’t know what it means, but I decided to give it a try.

He deliberately poured out mana and pulled out the ice.

It felt like something was being pulled out of my body.

It felt a little different when I used my internal energy.

Should I say I feel lethargic?

Then, ice began to come out, emitting a white steam unlike before.

The ice wasn’t transparent, it was really white.

I could feel the cool air just by looking at it.

“…I can win.”

You wanted to win.

Well, it wouldn’t be nice if the wizard you were teaching went somewhere and got defeated.

But I felt like this alone might not be enough to win.

“Is there anything else? Like how to launch this?”

“Huh? What are you doing? Since you’re a knight, hit him with it. It’ll be stronger than a well-made wooden sword.”

“Ah.”

It was a more efficient way to win than learning magic from now on.

If so, it’s an easy win.

I swung the ice I had created.

Phew!

A heavy and cool feeling.

It seemed like the time had come to return to the knighthood.

…It’s only been a day since I entered the tower.

They’re just going to treat this as a magic duel.

Well, there probably wasn’t a case where a knight like Nana or Ethan entered the magic tower.

“Phew… Then let’s go back to class.”

Rebecca began her afternoon classes with a calm expression again, perhaps relieved for a moment.

I don’t know if it was because of my mood, but the afternoon classes were mostly about dealing with fire magic and explaining the rules for magical duels.

Rebecca may be more competitive than you think.

Or maybe it’s for us.

After class, I asked the other two people who had decided to show up.

About what kind of magic they both use.

“Kekeke, I have the magic to make medicine…”

“I change my body.”

Kai is said to use pharmaceutical magic to create potions.

It somehow suited me well, but I also felt a little awkward because of it.

Blonde, tanning, these two keywords are drugs.

Wouldn’t this be a reasonable inference rather than a misunderstanding?

Mohawk Furry, Baran is a magic that transforms the body.

The term “body transformation” was a bit ambiguous, so I asked for more details.

“You can make things like horns, tails, and hair grow on your body.”

“…Really?”

What kind of expression do I have on my face right now?

He might look a little tired.

Is the final stage of a furry becoming a furry?

Still, it seemed like growing horns or a tail might be helpful in battle.

I don’t know about hair.

It’s getting warmer.

First, I left the class.

“Oh…”

“It came out, it came out…”

Then the wizards around us raised their voices when they saw us.

The incident has gotten bigger.

Everyone followed us, keeping some distance.

“What is this?”

Baran and Camille looked wary, as if they hadn’t expected such a sight.

Since Kai and I had experienced it once before, we were a little calm.

We rode the slabs and headed to what was called the training floor.

Fortunately, the wizards didn’t follow him all the way to the top of the stone slab.

The stone slab was large, but not large enough to burn the other wizards who were watching.

The training floor was literally a floor for training.

There was also a space where scarecrows, which could be easily seen even in the Knights Templar, were set up.

There also seemed to be a space to recover mana.

There were also spaces where books were lined up like a library.

And the innermost layer.

A small, circular arena with a giant magic circle carved into it appeared.

“That magic circle…”

“It’s a protective magic circle.”

A protective shield is provided to protect the players.

It is said that it is a very powerful protective shield, and that it protects against even the strongest magic up to 2 times.

The moment this shield was broken, it was defeat.

Certainly, I felt something change as I stepped onto the magic circle.

The feeling of mana surrounding my body.

It didn’t feel much different from cultivating internal energy.

“You came without running away.”

The man who had been picking on Kai greeted us with his arms linked.

There was no woman next to him.

As if he had read her gaze, the man coughed in vain.

“…It’s because of you…that Leila and I fought…”

It seems like they had an argument or something.

You blame Kai, but it was your own fault.

You have to believe what your girlfriend says.

I suspect that it went over to Kai.

The order of winning streak was Baran, Kai, and Na.

Leaving Varan behind, the two of us retreated out of the stadium.

The other person was a small woman.

However, I was holding something very ominous in my hand.

“Total?”

He was holding a small cannon-like gun with a slightly large muzzle in his hand.

The audience that had gathered one by one started whispering to each other as they watched us.

Then, someone from the audience came up on stage.

“Professor!”

“It’s the professor!”

From what I could tell, it seemed like he was a man in charge of the fire department.

That means that person is also Eva’s disciple.

He looked to be in his 40s for that to happen.

“You’re too young for Eva’s disciple…”

“Yes? I think Rebecca would feel the same way?”

“Ah.”

After hearing Camille’s answer, I realized.

Rebecca was an elf.

I was fooled by her appearance and ended up misunderstanding her age.

“Hahaha! Alright, everyone stand in your seats!”

He restored order with a hearty laugh, befitting a professor of fire department.

Both Baran and the girl with the gun stood in their seats with nervous expressions.

“Start!”

And then the professor immediately started the game.

The first to react to the sudden start was Baran.

“Ugh…!”

As soon as the game started, he crouched down and his body began to change.

First, he grew in height and size.

Horns grew on his head, his ears grew longer, and his sideburns grew longer, covering half of his face.

Animal hair grew on the back of his hands, and a thin tail protruded from his pants.

Horns, fur, and a thin tail…

“It’s the Minotaur!”

“Ah.”

Yeah, it reminded me of the Minotaur.

I was wondering where I had seen it before, but then someone told me about it and I remembered it.

“Wow…”

“Did you show your true self?”

“It’s a strange magic.”

“If you look closely, doesn’t it look more like a beast than a minotaur?”

“Suin? I’ve never seen him before, but he looks like that?”

“Haa…Haa…”

The transformed Baran was enjoying people’s gazes and reactions.

A hand was seen stroking its own horn with a proud expression.

The girl on the other side said as she watched the splendid transformation scene.

“Ugh, cow, dirty…”

At those words, Baran’s expression hardened.
