Chapter 51: Classes and Professors (2/2)

"Well, look e have here! If it isn't Princess Kathyln and my rival, Arthur Leywin" From the front of the door, Feyrith confidently walked towards Kathyln and I

Since when did he become my rival… and a rival in what, exactly?

"Aren't you loud this " I leaned my head on my hands as I looked at hi today Didn't the commencement ceremony today make you excited?" he harrumphed as he took the seat onnext to ht he wasn't very fond of , it is still technically thea light aret everyone's attention He looked more like a low-class adventurer instead of a professor but when I inspected his ht yellow stage

"Well, we have quite the crowd of students I know my class is always popular but I'm honored to have this many students! My naents, and welcoe to have you insarcastic or not when he directed his little welcome at us but I chose to not mind it

"This is Practical Mana Manipulation, or PMM as I like to call it That s very practically! Practically, in h exah hands-on experience, right?" His deep bass voice booht've still been sleepy, which included me

"I understand that most of you are first-years and that o However, parents have beentheir children as soon as they awaken before they even send them here, so even that assumption is mostly inaccurate However, for the sake of equality, I shall assuinner in mana manipulation, of course with the few exceptions, ie the three sitting right there" He pointed to the three of us while giving us a wink, drawing attention to us from everyone inside the roo myself, is curious as to what sort of level in ability our newly for the students here in this acadereehed, realizing that this professor was going to make this class a real pain in the ass for me I saw even Kathlyn's broitch in annoyance on her usually expressionless face

"Hmph! Well if Professor Geist insists, I shall volunteer myself on behalf of the disciplinary coroup, that was personally picked by the director, possesses" Feyrith got up froht hand over his heart in a proud h…

"HAHA! That's estured

Feyrith elegantly hopped down froe classrooer for blood

"He conjurer ater specialization, correct? Pretty good for a fifteen-year-old, even as an elf" The professor rubbed his chin, studying him

"Yes! By the fact that I cannot sense your mana core level, I assuher level than e" While Feyrith's response was very well- that even if the professor was a higher level, he could stand his own against hie, after all! To e attacks in this demonstration" He took out a two-handed sword from a dimension item he had attached to the buckle of his belt and stabbed it into the stadium behind him

I could tell Feyrith was about to protest that it wasn't necessary but before he could, Professor Geist held his hand up "Please If I were to lose, I would at least have an excuse, right? Please cut this old man sohing

He sounded sincere but I could tell that he was confident in winning against Feyrith, even with this handicap

"Feyrith is going to lose," Kathyln said softly

"Oh really? How can you tell?" Forbut it see that I didn't

However, she didn't respond, so I just went back to watching the mock battle that was about to start

"Let in so that our audience is safe from mana projectiles" The professor mumbled a few incantations and a space around the arena started glowing dirinned as Feyrith took out his wand and prepared for a spell

"Water Serpent!" A stream of water circled around Feyrith and soon took the foriant snake "Flood Domain!" Feyrith instantly set off another spell immediately after the water serpent spell formed Soon, a pool of water rose up to their knees on the arena, and the water serpent dove into the layer of water surrounding both Feyrith and Professor Geist

A doher-tier technique that was used to e

"Fireball," Professor Geist said to e learned formed in Professor Geist's pallowed a diure out and apply the theory behind the properties of fire when even the s it

The blue fireball shot out of Professor Geist's hand and fleards Feyrith, who had no idea how strong that spell actually was

"You'll have to do better than that, Professor!" Feyrith confidently flicked his wand up and round to form a thick wall of water in front of him At the same time, the Water Serpent spell Feyrith conjured erupted out of the water beside Professor Geist and lunged at him

Our professor enveloped his left arainst the force of Feyrith's spell As the water serpent struck Professor Geist, a cloud of stea him from view

Meanwhile, the blue fireball s a sharp hiss as our professor's spell bore through Feyrith's defense,its way towards my fellow DC member

Feyrith's face paled as he realized he was defenseless against the fireball but he was able to react in time to fore

"Oof!" The fireball, now reduced to the size of a fingernail by the time it reached Feyrith, still left a hole in the protective unifor him back a couple of steps before he stumbled onto his butt

"Do you surrender?" Professor Geist gave a wide grin as he walked out of the cloud of stea two more blue fireballs in his hand

"Y-Yes…I concede" Feyrith had his head down in sha

The students were allwhether we actually had the capability to protect them

"You did well, Feyrith" I patted the elf's back He did well considering he didn't knohat he was up against What was this professor trying to do by o by picking on his students?

"Would anyone else like to volunteer?" he stated while looking at Kathyln and I I was about to raise my hand but was startled when Kathyln suddenly shot up frouidedown into the arena
