Two weeks have passed since the incident with Alicia, the school principal.
One day in early July.
Early in the morning.
I was in the mountains with my brother Gaius.
"And then it happened! I've got the transfer magic ......, brother!"
My brother says to me, his blue eyes shining.
His beautiful blond hair shines in the morning sun.
"Hey, you did good!"
He patted Gaius on the head and smiled happily.
"Now if I can just learn to move freely without putting down a [marker], I'll be at the general level."
"You can't! Even just for the sake of it, they say that transference is a lost ancient super-magic!"
Gaius sighs.
"No, you can do it. Don't worry, trust your brother."
"......It's funny, really, when my brother tells me I can do anything."
We're here for morning practice.
We've been in this world for months.
It has become a daily routine for me to accompany my brother in his training.
"So, what are you training for today?"
"Oh, I found a good training partner yesterday. This way to the cave."
I move into the cave with Gaius.
"By the way, brother, are you studying for your final examinations?
"What's a final exam?"
"...... is an academic and practical exam held before the summer vacation. I told you about it in homeroom, didn't I?"
He sighs in exasperation.
"Well, I guess I can handle it. Oh, here we are. Here's the cave.
It's a cave in the mountains.
We're standing at the entrance.
"Brother, what's in there? Goblins? ...... You don't think they're demons, do you?"
No, no, no. It's morning practice. It's just a little sweatshop.
I'll use my concentration skills.
I collect magical elements in the atmosphere and convert them into magical power.
And send it [a little bit] toward the cave.
That's when.

Dogaaaaaaaaaaaan!
It breaks through the ceiling of the cave and flies up with its wings spread.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ......!
"What? A dragon!
"What, a lizard?"
It's a slightly larger lizard, ochre-colored.
"No, no, no! It's a dragon no matter how you look at it! I thought you were a dragon with a name!"
"It's just a lizard, you're overreacting."
>
A huge body to look up at.
Its body is made of rock.
Behemoth swings his huge paw down at us.
"Come on, we're gonna get crushed!"
"d*mn ......!"
Gaius smoothly synthesizes magic and fighting energy.
By doing so, he gains tremendous physical power. This is called [forbidden art].
Zuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
>
"No, brother,......, it's too much fun,......," he said.
Gaius murmurs with a greasy sweat on his forehead.
"Imagine that you can channel your magic power into each and every muscle fiber. Then you will be able to exert more physical strength. Try it."
"Only my brother could do such a monstrous thing!"
<<>
Behemoth puts his weight on his brother.
That's when.
Gowo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!
Gaius's body leaks out a silver-hued fighting spirit.
>
"Seyaaaaahhhh!"
Gaius gains momentum and pushes Behemoth away.
The enemy's paw comes up and he loses his balance and falls down.
thud, thud, thud, thud, thud!
"Hah ...... hah ...... it's done. ......"
"Hey, good job. I'm feeling it right now."
I put my hand on my brother's shoulder.
"Thank you. But I'm a little scared. ...... I feel like I'm getting closer and closer to being a foreigner.
That's when it happened.
>
Behemoth leaps to the sky.
It falls with great force.
>
"Well, you can't have that thing, ......!"
Ancient dragon approaching.
Just before we collide, I use my hand to swipe it away.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
<>
Behemoth flew away at high speed into the sky.
"I can't believe ...... that you could lightly strike down an ancient dragon with one hand. ......"
"Don't worry, you'll be able to do it too."
"No, you can't!
