"It wasn't really anything special," he admitted modestly.
"Observation is crucial," came the retort.
Professor Boladi never underestimated the value of emotion perception magic.
A duel between mages was like a collision of two different worlds. To gain the upper hand in such a collision, one needed the keen ability to read the opponent's world first.
"And you must have also mastered emotion control magic (<Ogonin's Abundant Satisf...

Steiber's mind grew faint.
"Success...? Or failure...?"
Honestly, anyone with a brain would have realized that Yuder's plan was more likely to fail than to succeed. In the deep sea, where the only concern was not getting crushed, the idea of descending even deeper to the very bottom to uncover the hidden anomalous crack and deal with the lurking monsters was daunting.
A normal human would not dare to venture to the seabed without bracing fo...

The seabed, untouched by humans since the world's creation, silently screamed as it began to crumble softly.
Rumble…
A pitch-black hole, which had been concealing itself, revealed its presence. Pale dust rose heavily like fog, and the pressure of the water that pressed down on the body intensified.
The horrific entities lurking within the cracks began to stir. In the land that was collapsing, or already fallen, the creatures beyond the cr...

Inquired Yuder and Kishiar, their gazes locking in mutual concern. At the moment they were about to issue instructions to their members for the tentacle response, Mick opened his mouth wide, waving his hands with a pale face.
"No. Below! It will come out from below. Not from above!"

Hello everyone,
I just found out the author's postype note about character's description: https://kysident.postype.com/post/7402204
And, my first assumption of Lusan's gender was right, Lusan is a male.
Why did I change it to female? It's because of the description in 905 where it said Lusan has long hair. And only just now, I can confirm through the author's post that Lusan is in fa...

"Professor, I may not be well-versed in imperial law, but I believe kidnapping is illegal."

"What??"
Yi-Han was shocked.
He knew adventurers were crazy, but to agree to such a proposal...
'Ah. No, that can't be right.'
For adventurers caught in a scam, refusing was not an easy option.
Moreover, Professor Boladi wouldn't have detained them harshly, so the atmosphere must have been quite intimidatin...

‘I nearly fell victim to the most terrible misunderstanding in the world,’ Yi-Han thought, feeling uneasy even after his response.
He was worried that Duke Icaldoren, upon returning to the imperial social circles, might spread false rumors like, "That boy Yi-Han from the Wardanaz family is quite close to Gonadaltes."
What would the skull principal and those bearing grudges against him think of this?
Certainly, there were more than just ...

"Alright. Although I've never attempted this before, if this is the best course of action you've found, then surely there can be no better option for me either."
These words felt to Yuder like a declaration, a commitment to make the 'best course of action' he had found truly the best. Indeed, the expression in Kishiar's eyes seemed to echo this sentiment.
Until now, and even more so from this point forward, predicting what lay ahead for them had ...

In the past, Yuder might have felt a sense of futility and despair. However, when he confirmed the state of the crack, the face that came to mind was Kishiar's.
When an event beyond their capacity to handle erupted, Yuder had planned to seek Kishiar's aid. Perhaps, now was that very moment. But could he really ask for more from someone who had already spent a whole day exerting their strength in battle?

As the night grew late, Yi-Han immediately lay down in his bed after finishing his dinner and tidying up.

Professor Boladi was puzzled when he saw Yi-Han wobbling on the griffin.

Professor Boladi lightly admonished Yi-Han for his carelessness.

"Professor, I fear I don't have the time right now, as I am preoccupied with my final exam assignment," Yi-Han replied, pointing to his shield.

Facing a significantly increased number of monsters, which have even grown larger in size, while the number of personnel to respond has decreased, would under normal circumstances be extremely dangerous.

‘Patrolling isn't as bad as I thought,’ he mused.
Initially, the idea of a first-year student patrolling a magic academy seemed absurd, but as his pockets grew heavier, his perspective shifted.

Ratford would have cried tears of admiration had he seen it.

It was speculated that at last, there had been a change in the strange crack, which served as an entrance for the monsters to surge out.
Consider the monsters and the strange crack as grains of rice or beans packed into a bottle or a pouch with a narrow opening. The grains, soaked in water, had become soft and mushy, barely escaping through the small gaps as they stuck together stickily whenever the bottle was shaken.
If such a bottle were turned...
