-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A giant blue wolf appeared.
"Oh, what! Is that summoning magic?"
"No, it's a spirit!"
"Aren't the students inside in danger?"
The blue wolf approached Bellus and sat down with a thud.
Then, it rubbed its body against Bellus, as if asking to be petted.
Whoosh.
A bird made of flames flew into the sky.
The bird circled above Bellus's head.
"Could it be! A phoenix?"
"No, it's a bit small to be a phoenix."
This time, dwarves wearing ridiculous hats appeared in droves and surrounded Bellus.
They seemed to be talking to Bellus, but the audience couldn't hear anything.
Suddenly, a squirrel appeared and ran around on Bellus's body.
Eventually, even a giant snake appeared and sat coiled opposite the blue wolf.
A small flame and a drop of water appeared, glaring at each other before taking their places on Bellus's shoulders, one on each side.
The officials of the Magic Tower were speechless.
"Isn't he just a freshman who hasn't even been enrolled for three months?"
"If there was a spirit magician with that level of ability, there would have been rumors somehow."
"So that means... his abilities blossomed after entering the academy?"
Inves Meridiem nodded.
"It seems he went into the forest behind the Medio Garden and awakened his abilities."
"Then isn't that even more amazing? How many months has it been, and he already has so many spirits..."
"It's impossible to even predict how he will grow in the future."
"We'll have to see then, but judging from his current appearance, he might become one of the top spirit magicians in Arcancia by the time he graduates."
The royal magic department officials were just as surprised.
Not to mention the majority of the audience who were seeing the manifestation of spirits for the first time.
Bellus finished his splendid debut as a spirit magician.
Now it was time for the second-year performance.
The first to come out was Karin Oberlia.
Standing in the center of the stage, Karin created a large cloud of steam and swirled it in front of her body.
Whoosh!
She stretched out both arms wide.
Steam spread throughout the stage, which was surrounded by a magical barrier.
Poof.
Beautiful snowflakes slowly began to fall.
"Wow!"
A huge roar erupted from the audience.
"What is that?"
"Is it snowing now? In May?"
"What kind of magic is this?"
While the surprised people were uttering words, one by one.
Next, Latia took to the stage.
"Ooh!"
"Wow!"
An appearance that elicited cheers just by appearing.
Whoosh.
Latia created a few ordinary flames, then spread her arms wide.
The flames floating in the air turned upside down.
Flames burning downwards.
Latia, with her arms spread, gracefully turned around once.
The flames burning downwards, following Latia, also revolved once in the air.
Latia gathered the flames again and raised both arms high into the sky.
Whoosh!
The flames that rose high into the sky in an instant, before reaching the edge of the magical barrier.
Boom.
Burst out in an arch, showing a beautiful fireworks show.
An official from the Magic Tower clicked his tongue.
"Such detailed fire element magic power control? Even if she is a magical genius girl, this is..."
Inves Meridiem opened his mouth.
"Professor Camila Lucia is in charge of the second grade this time. It seems that Professor Camila Lucia helped with this performance."
"Camila Lucia? Ah...! Are you talking about that eccentric magician?"
Inves gave a light smile.
"Eccentric if you call her that. A genius of applied magic if you call her that. Look at that. You know that you can't unfold something like that with just fire element magic."
Another official nodded.
"Indeed... just like what the black-haired student unfolded a little while ago. Surely there was Professor Camila's teaching."
"Let's watch a little more."
Next, an applied magic combat demonstration unfolded.
Karin created ice picks and sent them flying, while Nuves raised a large shield to block them.
Bonita cut through Latia's dancing flames with Aura.
Bellum cut off the limbs of the clumsy snowman that Liber had created.
"Applied magic. It can be useful in combat as well."
"Even if it's not overwhelmingly powerful, it's enough to confuse the opponent. The types of magic that have been used in combat have been too simple so far."
"Perhaps we have focused too much on the power of magic. There are various situations in combat."
After finishing the applied magic combat demonstration, the students set up targets at equal intervals on one end of the stage, then opened the iron door and went down under the stage.
After a while.
Davian opened the iron door and appeared on the stage.
He made eye contact with Professor Camila Lucia, who was outside the stage.
Camila nodded once, and Davian also responded with a light nod.
Davian, who went to the opposite end where the target was set up, stood with his back against the magic barrier.
Davian, as far away from the target as possible within the stage space.
Crackle!
Boom!
Along with a blinding flash.
The leftmost target exploded.
"What? What flashed?"
"The target over there exploded!"
"What is it?"
The general audience did not even realize what had happened.
Once again.
Crackle!
Boom!
Only after the second target flew away.
"Isn't that lightning? Lightning?"
"That's right! It looks like lightning struck?"
"Is there such magic?"
Crackle!
Boom!
Now, the officials of the Magic Tower and the royal magic department began to rise from their seats and watch the stage.
"I heard that Camila Lucia announced something like 5-element lightning magic...!"
"It's the first time I've actually seen it."
"She's really embedding lightning into the target."
"How does she aim it?"
"I'm curious about how she creates the lightning in the first place."
Crackle!
Boom!
Even the last target exploded cleanly.
Cheers and applause erupted from the audience.
Davian, who finished the performance, looked at Professor Camila Lucia.
Professor Camila also stood up and clapped her hands, smiling brightly at Davian.
Davian turned around to leave the stage.
Professor Camila also turned around and looked at the audience.
'They're gathered over there.'
She could see the officials of the Magic Tower and the royal magic department still buzzing.
Each of their expressions, each of their gestures, came clearly into Camila's view.
'Surprised? You must be surprised. This is the power of the Lightning Bolt that I, Camila Lucia, created.'
It wasn't just the officials of the Magic Tower or the royal magic department who were surprised.
The academy professor's seat.
Professor Kinesis asked the Head of the Syrims Magic Department.
"Head of the Magic Department. Davian has learned something amazing again."
"It seems that Professor Camila gave him private instruction."
"There's nothing he can't do if you teach him one thing. Everyone would be greedy for him."
"At the same time, it's a good thing because Davian can grow more."
"Anyway, that lightning magic. It's amazing. Speed, destructive power, and accuracy."
"Yes. I was there when Professor Camila presented her thesis and demonstrated it in the past. It was amazing then too. If she hadn't been so stubborn, it might have already been included in the regular curriculum."
"I see. I've heard about it too."
The Head of the Syrims Magic Department stroked his long beard.
"Anyway. It's certain that Davian has grown another step."
"Yes, that's right. I'm worried that he might say he's not going to learn psychokinesis magic anymore."
"There's no way. I heard he's already able to use Mana Acceleration skillfully. Professor Kinesis, you're amazing."
Professor Kinesis laughed heartily.
"It's Davian who's amazing. You know that well, Head of the Magic Department."
The Head of the Syrims Magic Department also laughed heartily.
"Of course, I know."
All performances up to the 7th grade were over.
Greddy Buttler, a 7th grader who showed an amazing demonstration last year, also showcased amazing fire element magic this year.
But it was unavoidable that the topicality was less than Davian's lightning magic.
As the festival ended and the evening party was in progress.
An announcement echoed through the academy.
We are informing you. Members of the Dungeon Exploration Club are to gather in the club room immediately. I repeat, the Dungeon Exploration Club is to gather in the club room immediately.
"Davian, I think they're calling you?"
Davian nodded.
"Something must have happened somewhere."
"Should we go with you?"
"No, it's club business. You guys should enjoy the last day of the festival."
At that time.
Samantha was seen running from over there.
"Davian! Did you hear the announcement?"
"Yeah. Let's go."
"Okay!"
Latia Meridiem gazed silently at the backs of Davian and Samantha running to the club room.
Luna looked at Latia like that.
Bonita's knife to cut the meat became slightly rougher.
Nuves, chewing on the meat without knowing anything, said.
"Hey, Bonita. You're going to cut the plate too."
"Mind your own business."
Dungeon Exploration Club club room.
"Is everyone here?"
"We're just waiting for Freddy and Emma!"
"Let's start the briefing first."
Ariel pointed to one of the dungeons on the map.
D-124 Dungeon.
"We received a report from a nearby village. It seems that monsters are pouring out."
4th grader Izel Joslin asked.
"Then do we go straight into the dungeon and destroy the core?"
Ariel shook her head.
"No. It's already too late. If a report comes to us, the dungeon core amplification is already over."
Vice President Nabero replied.
"We'll have to go to the entrance and defeat all the monsters pouring out."
"Yes. Divide into two teams, one team will block the entrance. The other team will take charge of the monsters that have already come out and are threatening the village."
Ariel looked around at the members.
"Nabero, over here. Davian, Samantha, over here."
After moving only the three of them.
"The left side based on the table is Team 1 with me. Block the entrance. And the right side is Team 2. Protect the people in the village."
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Just as the briefing was about to end.
Freddy and Emma came running in, panting.
"You two are over here. Okay, let's go! Run to the warp room!"
"Yes!"
A small village north of the Western Mining Zone.
A warp magic circle is drawn in one of the village warehouses.
The Dungeon Exploration Club had set it up in advance.
Oong.
Bright light was emitted from the warp magic circle, and 14 club members appeared.
"Team 1, follow me! Team 2, patrol the village immediately! Team leader for Team 2 is Vice President Nabero!"
"Yes!"
Ariel ran towards the dungeon entrance with 8 members.
6 people remained in the village.
With Vice President Nabero as the leader.
5th grader Gunner, Greddy George.
4th grader Izel Joslin.
And 2nd graders Davian Naone and Samantha Codis.
Two swordsmanship majors, two magic majors, one archery major, and one double major.
It was Team 2's composition, created by Ariel's quick eyes and judgment.
Vice President Nabero shouted.
"Let's go!"
