“Did you hear? “It seems like competition has begun among the ‘candidates.’”

“Uh, I heard a kid named Kanya was causing a strange commotion, right?”

“Would you really do that using your own name?”

“Maybe another candidate tried to bury Kanya.”

Arniel’s secret laboratory, a deep underground laboratory.

This place, known as the ‘Estel Project’, manages and researches Estelle and at the same time selects students who are suitable for it.

“ha. Who did such a stupid thing? That guy should be excluded from the candidacy immediately. “There is no need for fools.”

“well. “It might be hard to find.”

Since so many people, including quite a few students, were involved, it would be difficult to find the culprit.

“So, didn’t you say that we shouldn’t just accept candidates and bring them in?”

In fact, Kanya and Perta were not the only candidates for the ‘Estelle Project’. From the lower grades to the upper grades, he contacted quite a few students to promote their growth, and they were all designated as ‘special management targets’ and managed directly within Arniel.

The candidate’s conditions were simple.

They will have a natural talent for magic, and because their families are small or commoners, they must rely on Ainglass and have absolute loyalty to Arniel.

however.

“… … What should I do if I don’t have a suitable candidate that I like yet?”

Rudelaina, the head of the Estelle Project team’s research center, clicked her tongue and shook her head.

Estelle, a mysterious artifact known to be able to make a contract with Calantatis, the strongest guardian in mythology, if you collect them all. Ainglass did not want to give such an item to just anyone, so they picked and selected the right people, but there were very few people who were the right fit.

Even though they were talented, there were quite a few students who had doubts about Ainglass. Kanya, who had been slightly lowered in the candidate rankings earlier, was highly commendable for her loyalty to Ainglass, but her magic talent was very disappointing.

“Perta Rendella. He’s okay, isn’t he? There is a high possibility that it is a descendant of the Meng Blanc family or a noble daughter of Crucion.”

“well. Even leaving aside the other children, Ferta’s loyalty to Ainglass was quite lacking. Are you acting out your loyalty? … I don’t even know why I entered Arniel. “That guy is in a strangely unpleasant mood.”

“There is already an opinion coming from the higher-ups that it would be a good idea to give Estelle to Perta.”

“Of course it is. However, shouldn’t we make an effort to find the right person until the end? He is completely loyal to Ainglass and is full of magical talent… … .”

“So, did you order the professors to harass a student named Days?”

“I thought he might be a suitable candidate too. According to what I heard, I really like it.”

Blind loyalty to Ainglass and outstanding magical talent.

Since his family was from commoners, he was a perfect fit, lacking in nothing.

“So I doubt it. “The perfect fit for me just fell from the sky.”

“… … So what are you going to do? Damn it if it doesn’t come out, damn it if it comes out. Director. Just snatch it up, right? Shall I bring him?”

Rudelaina shook her head.

“no. There is a story that Days’ basic magic skills are disappointing. “We’ll do a few more tests, and when we’re sure, we’ll bring him in.”

After saying that, Rudelena put on a white lab coat and looked into space.

A mysterious blue crystal ball trapped inside a huge glass tube.

Just owning those tiny orbs will greatly enhance your abilities, and you can even make a contract with Calantatis if you collect them all… … .

“I look forward to the day when its true power is unleashed.”

Puzzle!

“Kwaaaa!!”

“… … .”

She wanted to quietly look at Estelle and be lost in thought, but this lab did not allow her that.

“Is it another failure?”

“yes.”

Rudelaina clicked her tongue as she looked at a wizard who had collapsed with his entire body stained bright red.

There are already over a hundred casualties.

At best, I was just trying to uncover the magical truth engraved on that tiny crystal ball.

‘Is it still too early for humans to interpret the dragon’s magic?’

She shook her head.

‘It will be resolved if a contractor worthy of Estelle appears. Someday, surely… … .’

Arniel had rotation lectures.

Rotation lectures were Arniel’s unique teaching method that changed daily or weekly, and the purpose was to give students ‘experience’ through various methods such as hands-on experience, observation, and field trips.

Ordinary magic schools would show students subjects they could not even imagine, or take their students to places that not everyone could go to.

Ancient magic circles, lost runes and historical sites, magic conferences and presentations, lost lands from demon wars, etc… … .

It was a place that most people could not even dream of unless they were Arniel.

Around this time.

Harang received a side quest for the first time in a long time. It was the first quest he had received since putting down his sword for a while.

━━━[Sub Quest]━━━

blockade of evil magic

The world’s best magic school, Arniel.

For some reason, the smell of the devil is wafting from this place where rising stars unfold their dreams and hopes.

Remove traces of the devil.

*Goal: Blockade or elimination of the demonic law camp.

*Reward: Partially strengthened abilities

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

At this point, it was almost like a prediction of the future. This is because it informs in advance of an event that has not yet occurred.

‘It probably means that Calantatis’s power is returning, albeit little by little.’

One of the powers of Calantatis, the Dragon King of the Moon, is foreknowledge of the future.

The story of the warrior Caladan’s revelation of a dangerous event that would occur in the near future is so famous that it hurts my ears.

Until now, Harang had indirectly benefited from such power, but now it seemed that Harang had grown considerably and the power of predicting the future was slowly returning.

‘Ability points as a reward. It’s the most primitive, but it’s also the best. By the way, demon law?’

The devil hasn’t even appeared in the public eye yet, so what’s the point of demon law training?

Isn’t the devil coming out too hastily? By the time I was thinking about that, all grade 0 students from all grades had gathered in the auditorium for the rotation lecture.

Today’s class was held for about 150 students enrolled this year, so Harang was able to see all students up to the 10th grade.

There were many famous people among the 8th and 10th grade students, and it was Harang’s pleasure to engrave their faces one by one.

“Now, today we will take the time to observe an ancient magic circle that was sealed a long time ago and find out how to obtain information about unknown magic.”

The location was a magic arts museum located on an outdoor site.

This museum, which is as old as the long history of the five great magic families, is said to record ancient magic from a thousand years ago.

Of course, just because it’s ancient magic doesn’t mean it’s super amazing or anything like that.

just… … Just imagine the first computer, Aniac.

The performance is barely enough to light a single flame with a large primitive magic circle and a lot of magic applied to it.

It is said that wizards at the time did not use magic circles, but used magic only with their innate ‘magical talent’.

“Now, Arniel’s new students. What were wizards like in ancient times? No answer needed. Because it was God himself.”

The instructor smiled and pointed to the sky in the museum’s basement auditorium where 300 people were gathered. There, a pure white cloth was covering something huge.

“That is a magic circle discovered at an ancient ruin seven years ago. All Arniel students who have been enrolled since 7 years ago come to observe this ancient magic circle. “I gave them all the task of interpreting this magic circle.”

The instructor said with a grin.

“However, no student has been able to interpret the identity of this magic circle. Is it really possible for you?

In other words, can you do what no one else could do?

It was a provocation that aroused the desire for a challenge.

Although it was a childish and primitive provocation, it was quite effective.

Most students are eager to become the first!

When the instructor waved his wand, the cloth came off, revealing something inside.

“Oh oh… … .”

“That’s an ancient… … .”

It was a stone slab.

Very huge.

While modern magic circles are perfectly shaped like circles, ancient magic circles were made up of multiple layers of ovals with countless runes spread over them.

“What is that… … ?”

“Ugh, it looks like a font with an earthworm crawling around in it.”

“I don’t recognize you at all… … ?”

Most of the students who wanted to achieve the title of first declared giving up early. That’s why the ancient magic circle was overly complicated and the principle itself seemed different from the modern magic circle.

“Isn’t it so different from the modern magic circle? However, if you look closely, you can see that the driving principle itself is the same as the Hyundai. This is the first and last hint I give you. “Try your best, everyone.”

Princess Citrine narrowed her eyes and activated [Truthian].

Flash! Shining golden eyes.

… … Of course, it was difficult to expect any significant effect from such ancient magic.

‘Keu, I just don’t know at all? Is the student’s level correct?’

By any chance, wouldn’t Harang have a bright idea? Her eyes sparkled as she searched for him.

We haven’t had much conversation since that day, but whenever we had the chance, we felt like chatting about the day’s events and having a meal together.

‘Ah, found it!’

She subtly lifted her buttocks to approach Harang, and at that moment, the instructor let out a grin.

“Oh, student Zelka.”

It was none other than Zelka Einglass who secretly raised his hand.

When the instructor pointed him out, he stood up and spoke with a smile.

“I knew the answer. “That ancient technique means stars.”

“Oh, it’s a star. Please continue.”

“Wizards a thousand years ago used magic by fortune-telling the stars. It was a magic that could be manifested entirely thanks to their own magical talent, but they believed that gods and spirits gave them strength. “I thought the constellations were a way to connect with God.”

“you’re right. Actually, the guesses of the ancients were not wrong. Modern saints also get their divinity from constellations. Although wizards don’t need to do that.”

“So that magic circle… … This is magic to perfectly specify the constellations in the night sky. You could think of it as a kind of star clock. “I think this was a measure taken by ancient wizards, who could not see the sky during the day, to use magic even when the sun was up.”

Zelka pointed out each circuit and technique of the magic circle and explained its meaning.

“The inverted triangle shape engraved on the northern rake circuit allows us to accurately determine time by measuring every second, and the eastern spiral rune is a magic for recording and visualizing the positions of constellations. If you activate that, the wizard will be able to make constellations appear in front of his eyes as if he were looking at the night sky at any time.”

in other words.

“That’s a map of the constellations carved by ancient astronomers.”

Zelka’s confident answer. The students paid attention to the instructor’s lips with an expression full of anticipation.

He paused for a moment to lighten the mood, then clapped his hands and spoke.

“Jelka student. That’s correct. “It wasn’t perfect, but it was close to perfect.”

Then the students burst into applause.

Indeed, some people even whistled, saying it was Jelka Einglass.

“For the first time in seven years, I interpreted the ancient magic circle above. How does it feel?”

“I was disappointed in myself for not being perfect. “I need to push myself a little harder.”

“Haha! You’re already better than anyone else, but you’re not good enough. It’s great enough. Um, but… … .”

The instructor tilted his head and looked back. Naturally, the students’ attention turned to that direction.

There, Days was staring blankly at the instructor with his arms raised.

“The student there, his name is…” … Oh, it’s Days. A famous person! “The answer has already been found. Is there anything else you can say?”

He nodded and said.

“Zelka Einglass’s interpretation is completely wrong.”

“… … yes?”

He had already said that he was the correct answer, but the instructor, who had no idea such a thing would come out, made a dumb expression.

“That is a demon summoning circle.”
