While staying at Vivienda Magic Academy for a month, I had learned one amazing fact.

That the rice here is incredibly delicious.

Lunch time, I took three plates after arriving at Viviendas cafeteria.

I watched as the nobles hardly ate the food on their plate.

In terms of this world, I had the taste of a commoner while the nobles found the food here unsatisfactory.

A greasy whole roasted chicken, a medium well steak, and a cheesecake that when it enters my mouth, I become drunk on its savory taste.

The cafeteria was buffet-style and you could take as much food as you wanted, but not a single person beside me did so.

I usually stayed until very late, eating.

Its because I take a lot.

Today as usual, when I went to fill my seventh plate, I saw a student who arrived late to eat.

Araceli Linecare.

She entered the school as the top student, but was unlucky to meet Fiolen who suppressed her in every way, and now even the professors have turned their backs on her.

She looked so weakened, and even her movements were sluggish, so I wondered if it was the same child from a month ago.

Miss, the time is over now

Ah

Araceli sighed softly at the chefs words, picking up her plate.

She was the one who broke the mealtime regulation anyways, so there is no excuse.

She nodded helplessly, then turned around.

Well

I dont have to mind her.

But somehow I felt a little sorry.

The child was a victim of the protagonist.

Araceli.

Hm?

She turned her head when she heard me.

Then, I was slightly surprised.

Because hidden in her eyes was still a fighting spirit.

Well, how many people would become dull after a month?

Although much confidence was lost, Araceli is still Araceli.

A person of great talent who became a legendary mage.

I accidentally took too much rice, so eat this.

I handed over the plate in my hand.

It wasnt exactly wrong.

I brought over ten plates when I was only going to eat seven.

Ah

I dont know if this will suit her taste, but its better than starving.

When she hesitated to accept the plate, I thought for a moment and spoke.

The Six Circuit Principles paper you wrote the other day was good. A little more polish and itll be really pretty.

It was a strange thing to say.

Was the word pretty right for a paper?

Besides, the fact is, I dont even know what the theory is about.

However.

< The Six Circuit Principles will be completed by the supporting character Araceli in three months. >

Thats why I said what I did.

Thank you.

Yeah. You should eat well and study hard. Then, Im going.

I turned around and left the cafeteria.

For some reason, I wasnt feeling very good.

The main topic I taught in my class was combat magic, and rather than teach theory, I had real demonstrations.

Why?

Because I dont understand the theory.

And the students were human after all, so they preferred real demonstrations opposed to reading books.

For that reason, I was quite a popular professor.

I assume thats why physical education teachers were the most popular in elementary school.

Professor! Walebun finally did a mana shot!

Crazy.

Sometimes there were students who surprised me after my lectures because they used magic that looks like the embodiment of science.

Just like how my aether dispenser was made with science, but looks like the embodiment of magic.

But, is it okay spreading science to this world of magic?

< Its not without problems, but it pales in comparison to the damage the protagonist has done to their world. >

Its a relief if thats the case.

Also, I was thinking about how to steal the magic and the problems that might occur if Im caught.

Im not going to come back here anyway.

I slowly turned to look at four students practicing magic on the side.

Fate or coincidence, Araceli, Gurim, Mazelon, and Fiolen are all enrolled in my class.

So these lectures have been the most tense for me.

Because I was trying to figure out Fiolens combat capability.

Its impossible to shoot him.

Theres already a massive Tier 4 magic circle on Fiolens heart.

Tier 4 and higher magic circles are called Cast Magic and can be activated immediately.

In modern terms, its right to say hes loaded with magic.

Most mages tend to cast defensive magic that is casted immediately upon impact.

Since Im not confident I can break through that defense with my gun, I should not mess with it for the time being.

If I fail to kill him, I will have to face a Level 70 mage.

And in addition to not being able to win, Fiolen had the adoration of the professors and schoolgirls, which is impossible for me to deal with by myself.

Come to think of it, Fiolen was still among the girls.

Thats not how you use Circle Spiral Cut.

Oh my!

When fiolen grabbed a female students arm and pretended to be calm while giving her mana, her cheeks blushed.

Do they really like that guy?

I couldnt understand it, but I didnt say anything because it was the protagonists clich.

I was imagining how those girls would kill me if they became hostile.

Fiolen has a personality that liked to show off, so if there were any students who had even a little trouble, he would run straight to them and teach them using knowledge from the future.

In fact, its not wrong to say that this is Fiolens class and not mine.

Of course, Fiolen only taught girls.

Only pretty girls at that.

In a way, he was a genius.

At the age of 17 hes dealing with magic that even professors found difficult.

By combining knowledge from the future, he used magic as if he created them on the spot.

Fiolen excelled in magic, and was now naturally compared to Araceli.

Exclamations erupted when Araceli fired a white arrow from her fingertip 50 meters in front of her.

This is because it was aimed so quickly and accurately.

However, Fiolen soon produced three bigger arrows and fired it one after another.

Thus, the attention switched to him.

I think Fiolen is even greater?

His arrows were more powerful. I cant believe he shot three arrows at once.

Aracelis expression naturally darkened.

Normally I wouldnt interfere, but I took a step forward.

To pity her?

To side with him?

No way.

The game of slowly observing was now over.

From now on, I intend to build up to the hunt.

The first way to do that.

The image and confidence of Fiolen in other peoples eyes need to be destroyed.

Fiolen. In a battle are you going to waste that much mana?

What?

Fiolens eyes widened because he did expect me to single him out.

Then his expression returned to normal.

For a month he was wary of me, probably due to not having any memories of me before the regression.

Since he came from 20 years in the future, he couldnt possibly remember every professor, so he thought I was a professor with no presence.

You used 10 times as much mana to remove only one target. If its not flaunting your power, what is it? Are you going to flaunt your magic to the enemy in a real battle?

I just practice to efficiently subdue any enemy I encounter. Although it was one target, I practiced as if it was 10.

Efficient. Do you really think your magic was efficient?

I slowly pointed at the target.

Yes. The destructive power is strong. However, how many seconds did it take to cast that magic?

It took six seconds.

It was fast enough.

However, in practice it was not.

Six seconds is enough for a healthy adult to reach you from 50 meters away. What if it were a magician or knight? Would your neck still remain?

That

Look at Araceli. From the magic casting to the hit on the target it took less than two seconds.

Assistant Willis from the sidelines added, Araceli is more efficient, not only with accuracy but also with the efficiency of mana consumption.

I dont know what that means, but its probably true.

Battle isnt a show. Dont think the enemy will welcome your fancy, shallow magic.

Everyone around me began to share my opinion.

Indeed. Im starting to feel embarrassed because I thought Fiolens magic was better.

Youre right. CombatWell, its not like sitting in a small room, reading a book, and writing down magic theories.

Somehow, I had the image of an outstanding Battle Mage, intentional or unintentionally, so I will make use of it.

Even if it is a false image.

Most of the professors here had no real combat experience, so thanks to that, I came up with roughly plausible terms.

Actually, I dont really know magic that well, but there was nothing wrong with what I said.

While Aracelis expression slightly became brighter, Fiolens expression gradually crumbled.

Bastard, you must be at least eight years older than me, but you cant control your expression at all.

You cant take a loss, can you?

Professor, can you prove what you said is correct?

I knew it.

Hes worried about his pride being tarnished, and his harem garden.

Yes. I fought on the battlefield for as much as 15 years.

The experience doesnt matter. What matters is if youre right.

Everyone around me was going Oh, no. I cant believe you said that about the professors career.

The reactions were immediate, but the protagonist didnt have the time to respond because I was going to add the carrot.

Since Im a professor it would be unprofessional for me to dual youSo what about the Maelka Dungeon?

Maelka Dungeon.

It was a kind of event where Viviendas students and professors teamed up to attack a dungeon together.

The competition between each magic department and school year was very fierce.

This is because if you do well in the Dungeon, youll become a national mage or be offered an apprenticeship in the mage tower.

In other words, Maelka Dungeon is a kind of auditioning stage for students with no connections.

Of course, Fiolen knew that the Maelka Dungeon was a big event, and must be aware of every unexpected situation that will happen inside.

Because he was a regressor.

The Maelka Dungeon?

Yes. Right, Ill team up with Araceli who showed the better performance here.

The corner of Fiolens mouth crept up.

Yeah, I thought as much.

I knew it well.

Maybe he couldnt stand it.

He must be very excited at the thought of fighting me, who embarrassed him, and proudly winning.

Only

This is a competition that you can never lose as a regressor.

Only a regressor would know what will happen in the Dungeon.

Okay.

Looking at Fiolen nodding confidently, I inwardly laughed.

Because.

[Protagonist Fiolen has begun to interfere with the chapter Maelka Dungeon Hell Beasts (3).]

[Changes detected in this chapter.]

The future that I saw was different.
