Volume 4 Chapter 65

Luano and the Sage class

Five months have passed since I enrolled in Ifrus Magic Academy.

A year in this world is worth ten months, so exactly half a year has passed.

The wedding reception of Tina and Rifa will be held next month, but before that happens, an event will happen at the academy.

It’s a special lecture by the sage Luano-Ver-Iffles.

Every six months, the headmaster of the school will give a lecture to the class with the best grades in this school.

It’s not every day that you get to learn directly from a sage.

Even the teachers at the school would be jealous of this lecture, as this time, our class will be able to take part in it.

It seems that many people come to our school to study with the purpose of learning from a sage.

Incidentally, the grades that determine which class of students are allowed to take the sage’s class are based on the number of victories in inter-class competitions, the results of each test, and the achievements made during the month’s off-campus activities.

Since we continued to win competitions against upperclassmen, excelled on tests, and we also saved Alheimers, we reached top grade for us without question.

Thus, the sage Luano came to our classroom.

The class has done better than ever for half a year. I’m sure we did a great job of saving Alheimers, especially in the extracurricular activities. His Majesty was very pleased as a result of this.

He was so pleased that the Elf King wrote a letter to the King of Glendale thanking us for saving his country from the Apristros.

As a token of his friendship, he included a leaf from the World Tree.

The king was very pleased with that, and he instructed the headmaster to work for us.

[His Majesty, the King has instructed me to reward you all. Normally my lecture to the best class is only one day, but I will extend it to a week. Is that alright with you?
It’s a wonderful reward.

A week of lectures from a genuine, real sage.

As a student of magic, I couldn’t think of a better reward.

Even if I’m a sage in my status, the reincarnation perk only made me a sage by class.

It’s a good thing that I’m able to use magic that’s reasonably strong because it’s corrected for magic power detection and magic power manipulation, but it’s doubtful that I’m able to use magic in the true sense of the word.

I thought there was still room for my magic to become stronger.

That’s why I’ve always wanted to take a lecture from the Headmaster of Luano School, who has realized the true essence of magic and became a true sage.

[Grandpa, don’t be stingy with me. A week or something is not that long, you never come over and lecture me.] Luke asks the headmaster for a favor.

Luke is the grandson of the sage Luano.

However, it’s a hard favor.

Because as the only sage in the country, Headmaster Luano is not only in charge of running the school, but is sometimes called upon to defeat demons that cannot be defeated by ordinary soldiers or adventurers, mainly those classified as S-ranked demons.

It’s a miracle that the head of the school, who is so busy, can even give a lecture for a week…

[Well I can’t help it if my grandson asks me to. I’ll visit you at least once a week from now on.]

[Sweet!]

You are too soft on your grandchildren.

[Is that really okay with you?]

[Of course I’m happy to oblige.]

[But In return, you’ll help me take out the demons, is that all right?]

The headmaster of the school has offered me a deal.

[If it’s only to help you defeat a demon, I’ll be happy to do so if I can attend a true sage’s class…]

Hmm? Wait……….

A demon that the sage Luano is needed to defeat?

That has to be an S-ranked demon!

[Hey, Grandpa!]

Don’t go running off on your own!

[Luke, wait! Don’t you know that it would be dangerous if even the Headmaster has to be called in? You need to be more careful with this.]

[But still, it’s a demon that you can defeat, right? With Tina-sensei and Haruto around, there is no reason for us to lose.]

What the hell are you talking about?

[Hmm, I see. I’m still the best in the world when it comes to magic. But when it comes to simple combat skills, Harut and Tina are better. When it comes to the power of a single shot of magic, Luke is probably better than me.]

Luke was a little happy to hear his grandfather’s affirmation.

[It sounds like defeating demons would be a great experience. I think I can accept that suggestion.]

Tina seems to agree with the headmaster’s suggestion.

As if defeating an S-ranked demon is a good experience…

[Best of all, it will be a great learning experience for all of you to be able to attend lectures by the sage Luano on a regular basis.]

Yeah, I’m sure it is.

[To be honest, I’m getting a bit old myself. The task of defeating high-ranking demons is becoming a bit difficult. So I’d like to leave it to you guys from now on.]

[…Grandpa.]

[You shall have my all. From now on, you will be the keepers of peace in this world.]

What in the world?

It’s turned into a big deal all of a sudden.

[What does that mean?]

[In this class we have gathered together those who should be an asset to protect the peace in the world for the future. Elves, beastmen, dragon-men, demons, spirits, and humans. We have turned our hands around so that all the respective representativ from each race will be enrolled at the same time.]

The headmaster spoke to the class as he gazed at them individually.

I see. So there are many different races gathered in this class?

Well, this magic academy has no age limit for admission except for humans after all. Most likely the timing of the entrance of the other fellow students was adjusted when the prospective human, the sage’s grandson Luke, entered their academy.

[This plan was also accelerated when the heroic Tina Halibel came to me with the intention of becoming a teacher. Though I had thought that I would not begin training you guys until after the fifth grade and…]

The headmaster chokes on his words a bit.

[I didn’t expect you to be the best class in the school in the first year… all of you are a little strange aren’t you?]

Yeah, I had a feeling of that as well.

[But if the qualities that need to be trained are already in place, then it’s best to train them quickly. I said earlier that it was at Luke’s request, but the truth is that I had already decided that I would train you regularly.]

So that’s what happened.

Tina didn’t seem to know about his decision either.

[Of course, I’d like to leave it to Tina to be the homeroom teacher for this class in the future. But I believe that once you know the essence of magic, your magic will rise to another level. I want you to learn that in my lecture.]

[Yes!]

This is how we ended up taking a lecture from the sage Luano in order to gain the power to protect the world.
