Everyone looked at me in shock as my voice faded from the room.
I coughed awkwardly a few times before turning to Leon.
“You aren’t actually fighting, you’re just attacking your opponent with money. Count how many potions you used, Ms. Mabel.”
“Um.”
Mable took a test tube rack out from her ring and there was a large gap in one of the rows.
“About 50 of them.”
“Those can’t be free, right?”
“Well……most of the materials was waste that came from my dad’s laboratory. Most of the money was spent on the test tubes.”
“Waste……”
Oh my god. The aristocrats in this country can’t even try to understand. It seems that’s I will have to take a good look at the vaults of the aristocrats in this country.
“What about you Leon? I just saw you use several magic guide books and unleash magic everywhere. I don’t think the magic stones in those are scrap.”
“That’s……These magical guide books were gotten as surplus from the magical armed forces, so……”
“Alright, I get it. I understand your fighting styles and their weaknesses. Do you want to experience those weaknesses now?”
As I said that I took out my small crossbow.
“You’ll go first Ms. Mabel. Get ready to fight, I’ll use a simple method to explain your shortcomings.”
“Ok!”
Leon nodded and left the field as I came up.
“Let’s start.”
“Yes!”
Mabel threw three test tubes into the air. Judging by their color……they are ice based.Her fighting style is about what I expected, reduce the opponent’s speed while causing some damage.
But I anticipated this, which is why I chose the crossbow.
The biggest weakness when using test tubes is that they have to move in an arc when they are thrown. If you use their target as a reference then it is easy to imagine their trajectory.
Then……
I fired three bolts from the crossbow. The test tubes burst open and three blocks of ice fell to the ground.
Right as I fired, Mabel fired two arrows at the crossbow in my hand.
But I just smiled at that. With a single wave a sturdy ice shield appeared in front of me. The two arrows struck the top the shield, and while they had some penetration, they didn’t pierce through.
The crossbow. While it has higher speed and accuracy than the bow its power is weaker.
Normal bows and arrows won’t be able to pierce my shield, so a crossbow isn’t worth mentioning.
Of course the Elves’ bow and crossbow don’t fit in my explanation. Their race has developed some sort of dark technology, I don’t know how to explain it.
Since the few arrows failed to penetrate, Ms. Mabel put away the crossbow, took out a test tube and threw it at me.
But just as she was firing an arrow, I was recovering my magic. The Ice Shield doesn’t take that much and by the time she had fired, I had completely recovered my MP.
I wasn’t going to use Flash Movement while I was being watched. I dropped a smoke bomb on the floor and while the smoke filled the air I flashed behind her and pointed a crossbow at her.
“You lose.”
I laughed.
“Wha……
She turned and looked in shock.
“When did……you get behind me?”
“Alright, let’s talk about your weaknesses. To sum them up, it’s too easy to see through your attacks.”
I said as I lifted the battle barrier.
“Magic test tubes, crossbows, it’s easy to see through the attacks of both of these. In general, as long as a defensive magician can observe you, it wouldn’t be hard for them to fight you.”
“Then I have an advantage when I fight warriors?”
“As long as they don’t figure out that you are using test tubes for magic. Otherwise, it really isn’t hard to avoid their speed. I’m just saying how you could improve. The next person is……”
I was just about to call Leon’s name when I heard a bell ringing outside.
“Eh? The class is over?”
I looked at the time but it had been two hours.
“Cough cough. The text book for combat is just competition between students and the teacher picking it apart afterwards. The teacher can only guide your abilities.”
Hart, who was familiar with this immediately replied.”
“That’s natural. I’m not saying it isn’t a good thing, in fact, it’s better than what we had before.”
“I’m glad to get such a fair answer.”
I smiled.
“well, since class is over can I assign homework?”
“While you can……it would be better if you didn’t?”
Hart’s reaction was the natural for all students.
“Ok then, write a passage, something about your own abilities and how you wold defeat Leon and Mabel. Class is over.”
When I said that, the class dispersed.
Only Oyado and Princess Snow stayed. Oyado rushed over to talk.
“Big Brother! Did Oyado do well today!”
“Yep. Thanks for helping today, Oyado.”
I said as I patted her head.
“Well……Fir. My father is coming to the college later today to see me. He said he wanted to see you as well. Can you come to the Rice Hotel tonight? It’s outside the academy.”
“His Majesty…… Did he say something?”
“Why would he tell me?”
“Alright, I’ll be there. Don’t worry.”
