Chapter 68.1

“Amazing, you’re amazing Arnos-sama! As noble as always!”

“Yes! If Arnos-sama teaches me the heroes magic then we don’t need to go on this school exchange!”

“This school exchange means we have to go to Azeshion right? Will we be lodging somewhere?”

“Possibly………….are you going to do a night raid!?” (1)

“I can’t do something that shameful!”

“Why are you asking then?”

“Will we sleep in the same building as Arnos-sama? If so, isn’t that the same as sleeping together? It’s almost a hug right!?”

“You know…….your strong delusions are quite embarrassing.”

My fan union is being noisy as usual.

“…….I see……… You’re that inept person.”

Has it finally clicked? Menou looked at my school badge.

“I thought something about you was familiar. You’re Arnos-kun right? You won the sword tournament.”

“Aah.”

“Like the rumours say, you really can do incredible things.”

You might hear about my power but to actually witness it. Can’t you hide your surprise?

Well, I’m pretty sure Emilia wasn’t saying anything good about me to the other teachers so Menou might have been doubting what she’d heard.

From what I’ve seen of Menou she doesn’t seem to be one of the stiff royals like Emilia either.

“Well then, as you can all see this is the heroes magic. Anyway, next week everyone in this class will be going to the royal capital of Gairadeite and studying at the hero academy. My third-year class will also be going. The owl will be delivering all the necessary paperwork to your houses today so keep an eye out for it.”

Getting over her surprise Menou had started over again.

“Today is only a quick introduction from me so the rest of your day is self-study. Please try not to disturb the other classes.”

Menou heads out of the room but stops as she remembers something.

“Oh right. I’m sure the hero academy is also practising army magic so there might be a competition between them using and us using . The best mazoku from all over Deiruheido are gathered here in this school so I won’t accept us losing.”

Menou winks mischievously.

“Well, I’m sure the third years will uphold our honour but I expect no less from yourselves either. Please don’t show any unseemly behaviour and all of you do your best with self-study.”

Menou leaves the class.

“Fumu. Self-study huh?”

“You’re not going to bother are you?” Sasha says looking over at me.

“Of course I am. It will be too boring otherwise.”

I stand up

“Misha, Sasha, Ray, Misa come with me for a bit.”

“That’s fine.” (Ray)

“What are we doing?” (Misha)

“Because its self-study I’m going to teach you how to use your powers.”

I hold out my hand and Misha takes it. The others also hold hands and I use .

The place we arrived at was the demon forest. This is the best place for practising due to the magic soil that repairs anything so you can go wild without worrying.

“……………I’ve got a bad feeling about this. What are we doing here…….?” (Sasha)

“I’m going to teach you all.”

Sasha had a faraway look in her eyes for a moment.

“You serious?” (Sasha)

“I said I’d teach you all to use your power. The mock fight between us and the hero academy is also a certain thing too. There’s no way it’s just a possibility.”

“I guess, but you alone will be enough won’t you?” (Sasha)

“I won’t deny that.”

“I learnt something during the demon sword tournament.” (Arnos)

Sasha’s face takes on a curious expression and Misha stares at me

“Learnt what?” (Misha)

“Even if its insignificant use everything you have. Doing your best is the highest thing you can do. Even if you have to overturn heaven and earth, push through with all your might. Doing that gives birth to something irreplaceable.”

“……….Why are you coming out with those springtime of youth lines when you have that insane power…….?” Sasha complains while Misa has a bitter smile.

“……Ahaha…….Even if we know that, those things rarely work.” (Misa)

“I understand it though. Arnos’ feelings.” Ray says with his refreshing smile.

“I thought you’d say that Ray.”

“Good thing.” (Misha)

“Really?”

Misha nodded.

“Do my best.”

I glance over at Misa.

“Of course I’ll do it.”

“Sasha?”

“If everyone else is I will too. I’ll come with you.”

I laugh and start walking.

“I’m glad I’ve got such understanding followers.”

I activate a magic formation and turn back to face Sasha.

Sasha’s eye’s round in surprise.
