Chapter 117: Prodigy

Chapter 117 Prodigy

「Well now, please come down. Welcome to Adelheit Magic Academy desuwa!」

We followed Therese, who was leading the way, and got off the carriage. The place where we got off was not the main gate of the academy, but the back gate.

「It’s an unpopular place.」

「If we go by this carriage from the main gate, we’ll stand out after all.」

Right, it’s not that they parked the carriage on the back gate side without a reason. A white horse that stands out, a pure white carriage, Therese with a natural constitution that attracts attention, and for the finishing blow, the leader of Magic Knight Order who is longed by the students. It’s a full score. It’s impossible not to stand out. The only way is to sneak in from the back of the school building.

「Well then, everyone. I will secretly show you around the academy as you requested.」

「I will be in your care~.」

「Please.」

Therese immediately started walking to give guidance. As for direction, it seems that she is heading to the stadium where the graduation festival will be held. She said secretly, but her overflowing presence hasn’t changed at all. Hmm, it seems that Therese is not suited for covert activities.

「Therese-oujousama. Before that, I and Nell will bring Lily and go meet the principal. So, can I ask you to guide Haru and Chinatsu first?」

「Of course, I don’t mind desuwa. Do you know the location of the principal’s office?」

「Yes, I do. As soon as we are done with the greetings, I’ll be looking for your signs, so please proceed without worrying us. Haru, don’t cause trouble for Ojou-sama.」

「Yes! I will be obedient!」

「Chinatsu, you can go wild. It looks interesting after all.」

「W-What do you mean by that!?」

Thus, we’re going our separate ways from here. Me, Nell, and Lily, who is today’s main cast, head toward the principal’s office.

「Every building is good. They are well cleaned and very beautiful!」

Haruna and Chinatsu were taken by Therese and guided around the academy. Although it is called the Magic Academy, in addition to magic, the curriculum included practical lectures on swordsmanship, martial arts, and so on, and the content is wide.

「It’s a place to nurture the next generation of our country and it’s one of the best learning places in the world. There are many students like me who dream of joining the Magic Knight Order, so they try to create a system that includes not only magic, but also subjects that are frequently requested by the students.」

「I see… It’s not a consistent study of junior high school and high school, but a system where you choose your own credits, like a university.」

「Ara, there’s an academy in the homeland of Chinatsu-san and Haruna-san, huh. I’m not familiar with the countries in the east, and I’m ashamed to say that I have shallow knowledge. For future reference, may I hear it at the cafeteria while having a break there?」

Therese seems to misunderstand that Chinatsu and Haruna are from the far east because of their black hair. On the other hand, Chinatsu doesn’t know such a place, so she wonders if she can talk about Japan. Haruna, on the other hand, is engrossed in the equipment in the training grounds.

「Hey… excuse me…」

There was a voice that spoke to the three of them. It was a very small voice that seemed to fade away.

「Oh, it’s you, Wee! What a coincidence desuwa!」

「You know I always use the training grounds at this time, don’t you ……?」

It was a very petite girl. She is smaller than Haruna. She has her clear blue hair tied up two-sided and she stares at Therese with her eyes that look somewhat sleepy. She’s wearing a uniform that proved she’s a student of this academy and is carrying a staff in her hand.

「Therese-san, who is she?」

「Ah, I’m sorry for the late introduction desuwa. This girl’s name is Weerel Joshua. Just like me, she’s a person called a prodigy since the beginning of the academy! Furthermore, she’s two years younger than me. However, she skipped grades and will participate in this year’s graduation festival! I’m also very proud of her desuwa! The Joshua family has a certain family background, and your grandfather is pleased――」

「―― Prez, please don’t talk too much about my family… Also, I’m not that great…」

The girl named Weerel shyly protested to Therese, who praised her highly. The exchange was somewhat charming, so Haruna and Chinatsu naturally smiled. In that harmonious atmosphere, Haruna and Chinatsu finished their self-introductions.

「A tour of the academy, huh… At this time, it’s unusual…」

「Ehehe, it’s not that we are enrolling, though.」

「……?」

「Wee, Haruna-san and Chinatsu-san have circumstances higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea. It would be rude to pry too much into their affairs desuwa.」

「Understood…」

「Therese-san, you don’t have to worry about that.」

As Chinatsu covered for her, Haruna suddenly began to stare at Weerel’s staff. Her staff is as long as her height and has a large jewel at the tip. It looks more expensive than any other staff Haruna had ever seen, and more importantly, it has the impression that it has a powerful magic power.

「Weerel-san, did you come to the training grounds to practice magic?」

「You can call me Wee… I’m younger than you after all…」

「Then, I will call you Wee-chan!」

「H-Hey, Haruna!」

「No, I don’t mind… Wee-chan, it’s really good…」

「R-Really…?」

「Ara, it’s rare to see Weerel so affectionate with someone desuwa. As expected of the two of you desuwa!」

Weerel remains expressionless no matter how you look at her, but Therese says she’s very happy. This is probably because they have known each other for a long time.

「So, to answer your question earlier… magic practice is correct… it’s my daily routine…」

「Ah, no wonder there are no other students desuwa. They have been evacuated, huh.」

「「…… Evacuated?」」

Haruna and Chinatsu look around. This place is an indoor training facility, and there are many shooting training area-like places with the targets lined up at a fixed distance. There’s an easy course with the target at five meters ahead and a more advanced course with the target at fifty meters ahead. However, no figure can be seen anywhere, and only four people, Haruna and the others plus Weerel, are in this facility.

「This facility has a special barrier that prevents magic power from leaking outside. However, not for the inside. If you use too powerful magic, the damage will directly reach the other people inside… Well, that’s how amazing Wee’s magic is desuwa!」

「I’m not that amazing… But, there may be a slight chance of the worst thing happening… If possible, I hope you can evacuate to the outside…」

Weerel called out to Haruna and the others to evacuate outside the training area. However, there is no way that their curiosity will subside after being told such a thing.

「I want to see Wee-chan’s magic up close!」

「…… Prez?」

「Well, Haruna-san and Chinatsu-san will be fine desuwa. After all, they’re sturdier than me!」

「Eh… Are you monsters…?」

「Ehehe, not really~」

「I-I’m not that sturdy, you know!?」

With the consent of Therese, Haruna and Chinatsu decided to observe the magic training of Weerel up close.

(Somehow… I feel a chill on my spine…)

The moment Weerel held her staff to start her training, she could feel the bloodlust from Haruna’s gaze, which became the eyes of a hunter. There are many times that she targets even her close friend.

Weerel, Wee-chan?

Wirrel, Wi-chan?

Wirel?

Wiirel, Wii-chan?

Which one is better? I’m not sure about my naming sense.
