Karen informed Luke that Evergreen and Deindart had formed a team and decided to participate in a 2v2 martial arts match.

Huh? Werent you supposed to not participate because you didnt have time? Thats what Gerald said.

No, thats ugh

Hmm, a bit late to the party, arent you?

Luke had no choice but to accept it.

Why Deindart, of all people?

Of course, Deindart, being someone who rarely used a shield in extreme situations, would complement Evergreen, who was an archer, very well.

Unless they encountered a major variable, they could aim for victory.

It was a great opportunity for Evergreen.

But for Luke, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Why hadnt he thought of suggesting going out together with Evergreen first?

Luke felt an urge to go back a few hours and thoroughly scold his past self for being so thoughtless.

Training together.

Traveling to other academies.

While Deindart would be building a strong bond and more with Evergreen, Luke would just be twiddling his thumbs.

It couldnt get any worse.

Recalling Deindarts skillful maneuvers (from Lukes perspective) around Evergreen lately, Luke felt a vein throb on his forehead.

So, he made a decision.

To enter the Battle Arena.

Shrrrrp!

Luke printed out a paper containing all the rules of the Battle Arena and stuck it on the wall of his dormitory room.

Currently, he had three types of matches he could participate in.

1v1 martial arts.

2v2 martial arts.

Party play.

But Leciel had already taken the party play.

They said she just picked anyone on the spot and submitted the application.

No matter how elite a team I form, theres no chance of beating Leciel.

Party play out.

Luke crossed it out heavily.

So what about a 1v1, which is one of the remaining options?

Hey, Im participating in a 1v1 match. Would you like to have a fight with me?

That was Cucullis charge.

This one was less successful than Leciel, but the odds of winning were equally slim.

Luke moved his pen boldly.

Then what about the remaining option, the 2v2 martial arts

Hey, Luke

Gerald and Ban, who were watching, were stunned.

They continued to criticize Luke.

Theres no way youre thinking of going into a 2v2 match, right?

Im scared. Will you destroy things if you cant have them?

Then Evergreen will miss out on the prize money and the trip. Even if youre jealous, thats a bit

Luke has completed a world where everyone gets hurt

Luke looked irritably at them.

You guys. Theres no way Id do that.

Ban and himself.

If they went out together, winning the 2v2 martial arts match was a given.

However, if that happened, Evergreens victory would be lost according to their words.

What was the point of trampling on a kid who was filled with hopes and dreams about the prize money? Even if they won.

His original goal wasnt just the joint training; it was joint training with Evergreen.

Or rather, it was preventing Deindarts moves.

So.

As Luke opened his mouth, he pointed at one of the densely written Battle Arena rules with his finger.

My plan is

Mercenaries always had to devise ingenious solutions and strive for survival with quick judgments.

Just like now.

Ban.

Uh, yeah.

Were going into the magic 2v2.

*Eligibility: All those who have mastered magic.

Once the decision was made, a detailed plan (which Ban did not agree to) was quickly formulated.

.

.

.

Ban looked at Luke with bewildered eyes.

Are you, by any chance, an idiot?

There was a big flaw in Lukes plan, to a degree rare for Ban to criticize.New novel chapters are published on

That the two of them couldnt use magic at all.

No, hear me out till the end.

Lukes face turned red.

He, too, knew that this was a hopeless plan.

Ah, its urgent!

As Luke grabbed the end of the towel, it coincided with her waking up.

Swish-!

Geez.

As she rolled off the towel onto the floor, Cuculli placed her hands on her waist as if protesting.

What!

Do you know how to use magic?

Cuculli looked at Luke with skeptical eyes.

Dont you think its too pathetic to ask that of a descendant of a dragon?

Im asking if you can use any human magic besides dragon magic.

Of course. What do you think the master of magic is?

Luke nodded satisfactorily.

Then teach me any of those roughly.

Cucullis expression became subtle.

Something was strange.

Luke was asking for instruction from none other than himself.

Wasnt he the guy who, due to his pride, had gone to Leciel to learn aerial techniques?

What do you need magic for?

For a magic 2v2 battle.

Pohanghang-!

Indeed, it was worth the anticipation.

Cuculli laughed, rolling around on the towel.

Luke wanted to leave immediately due to embarrassment but he held back.

If he didnt endure the current irritation, he would be even more irritated in a few months.

Ha this was the funniest thing I heard this year.

Cuculli, who had been laughing heartily, wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes and got up.

Although she detested bothersome tasks, she wasnt the type to get involved in something that seemed fun either.

But offering help outright didnt really suit her either.

A sly grin crept onto Cucullis lips.

Mercenary, isnt it a rule in your industry to set a fee when making a request?

Luke nodded in response.

The fee had already been considered.

Ill cover all your food expenses for a month.

Oh, not afraid of bankruptcy?

Ive made some money recently.

Ah, so the riches of the Dietrich family are flowing to you!

Cuculli playfully retorted, then straightened up and chuckled.

Once you accept that.

What else do you want to say?

Help me out when I need it later.

Luke hesitated for a moment.

He could help out when that lanky fellow needed it, like sneaking into the kitchen or playing a mischievous prank.

Those kinds of demerits could easily be offset by a few bathroom cleaning sessions.

Okay. Lets do that.

The love-struck Luke, in an uncharacteristic manner for a mercenary, accepted the abstract terms of the contract.

All right! The party to this agreement will be none other than Ban, the legitimate son of the honorable Dietrich family!

Only then did Cuculli suddenly jump up and beam with a broad smile.

Everyone, greet Professor Evans!

And so they headed to the empty classroom.

.

.

.

At the most basic level, the transmission of magic skills continued.

During this process, there was one unexpected aspect for both Ban and Luke.

Namely, Cucullis teaching talent.

She smoothly conducted classes so that even they, who had sparse knowledge of magic could easily enter the world of magic, a far cry from Leciels rigid teaching methods.

Even the grass roller has a talent for it.

Luke, have you ever eaten multiple servings of course meals at once? Just thinking about eating like that is really exciting.

Sorry.

Thus, they succeeded in mastering completely useless and shoddy magic in just two days.

* * *

Glitter-

Jace, a staff member who was present at the Battle Arena site, looked at Ban with an incredulous expression.

A light the size of a fingernail floating in the air.

Despite a few clouds gathering, it was a brightness that wouldnt have been visible on a typical sunny day.

Ban buried his head in the ground with a reddening face, as if about to explode.

On the other hand, Luke was confident.

Hes using a flashy spell, while Im using reinforcement magic.

Eeeeeee-

With a mosquito-like buzzing sound, the stiffness of the stick Luke was holding increased by about 1.05 times.

See, havent we met all the eligibility requirements?

The employee, facing the boys ominously glowing dark red eyes, had no choice but to slowly nod.
