"So this is the Royal Capital's arena...."
The day of the interpersonal match.
I, the teachers, and the other members went to the royal capital's arena.
The other students are going to cheer for us but they're acting separately.
"You've never seen it, Mathi-kun?"
"Yeah. I mean, the only place I know in the capital is our school. And the blacksmith from back then I guess."
I wasn't really interested in the arena since it mostly held mock battles with chant magic.
Well, the magic put on it is the same as what I've guessed, so there's no particular problem
"Now that you mentiont it, Mathi-kun's knowledge seems to be quite lopsided doesn't it.... I hope there's no Heaven-sent Child of Magic participating this year...."
"Heaven-sent Child of Magic?"
What's with that divine name. I never heard that.
"There was a few times when Second Academy had strong students that looked like they'd win. But during those years, First Academy always had someone stronger as the leader...."
"They were unbelievably strong every times it happened, so people called them 『Heaven-sent Child of Magic』. If I'm not mistaken, the previous magic division commander was also one. ...Well, I don't think even the 『Heaven-sent Child of Magic』 could stand against Mathi, we should be fine."
I see. That's what 『Heaven-sent Child of Magic』 about huh. Abnormally strong people also occasionally showed themselves up in my past life, but the timing is quite convenient this time.
Not sure how much does "unbelievably strong" means, well, I'll know when I see them.
If they're not somewhat strong, there's a possibility that the match ends too quick and we get no time to demonstrate the power of chantless magic instead.
I hope someone moderately tough appears.
I went to the waiting room while thinking that, however....
◇
"Hey. Mankind and demons are hostile against each others right?"
"They've always been humanity's greatest enemy since a long time ago.... What about it?"
Alma replied with a 'why are you asking the obvious' look on her face.
"Nah, I was just wondering. That aside, it's really here. That Heaven-sent Child of Magic. That is indeed a monster."
I muttered while examining the mana reaction.
The waiting rooms of the First and Second Academy are 100 meter apart, thus examining their mana isn't a difficult task
If that's really the Heaven-sent Child of Magic, it certainly has power incomparable to other students just like Ruli told me.
"From the waiting room of the First Academy, I could feel a strong.... Or rather, an odd power."
"It's true. ...Or rather, I don't think that's even the mana reaction of a human.... If even Mathi deems them strong, are they considerably dangerous?"
Thanks to their one month training with 【Passive Detection】, it seems these two have noticed the oddity of this mana.
I think its mana quantity is about 10 times mine.
It's a honest-to-goodness monster--or rather, demon for sure.
Judging from its mana reaction, it's most likely a type of demon that's good in disguise and with high defensive power. I guess the fact that it isn't the strong-at-attacking type is the silver lining here.
Demons usually have the ability to conceal their mana reaction, but they probably think they don't need to do that now that 【Passive Detection】 has been discarded by people.
"You two, listen to me."
"What's wrong?"
"If the enemy's leader is as I've guessed, this'll be quite dangerous. Therefore, I'd like you two to defeat the two students besides the 『Heaven-sent Child of Magic』 and then immediately escape. Leave the rest to me."
"But, the arena has defensive magic...."
"It's possible for the defensive magic to be broken through. If we're only talking about magic output, the other party's is considerably higher compared to mine."
Well, that is if we're only talking about magic output.
