Chapter 33: The Last Magus Classes

When Aizu heard about Yale’s Healing Elemental Affinity, she didn’t know how she should feel.

Yale had saved her before and even healed all her injuries, but at the same time, Yale stole all the limelight in the healing class.

Aizu had a Mid-high Healing Elemental Affinity, so she should have been the best student in the class if Yale hadn’t appeared.

Even if virtually someone with that talent appeared in the city every ten years. Her affinity was still rare, and that was one of her trump cards to become famous in the academy.

However, Aizu knew that she couldn’t do anything about the actual situation.

Hence, after thinking for a while, she made a decision.

To stop trying to compare herself with Yale in regards to talent.

After all, her objective was to avoid the forced marriage by becoming famous in the academy and then gain the academy’s protection.

Even if Yale were shocking and could eclipse her regarding the talent in healing, that didn’t mean that she hadn’t a good talent.

If Aizu compared herself to any other student in her generation, she was outstanding.

She was feeling bad only because she was comparing with Yale.

To get the academy’s protection, it didn’t matter Yale’s talent; if she showed her abilities, the academy would still back up her.

Furthermore, even if she met Yale that day for the first time, she felt incredibly close to him and was thinking about asking Yale to practice magic with her.

It was good to have a talented companion when training magic and Aizu thought that she was the only one who could be a good partner for Yale as she considered herself the most talented after him.

As for George and Zack, she neglected them as they only attended one magic class.

Maybe they could help Yale more in their respective element, but in overall magic practice, Aizu was really the one who was at the highest level after Yale.

To Aizu, it was impossible to avoid thinking that they were very close after Yale carried her like a princess when she was injured.

It was subconscious, but after that moment, she didn’t leave Yale’s side even when they went to observe the teacher’s healing magic.

Aizu also had a lonely life surrounded by those had who condemned her to marry the lewd old man.

Yale was the first person who showed gentleness towards her and that was something that she wouldn’t forget.

***

The time for the class ended after the teacher revealed Yale’s affinity towards healing spells.

“I heard that you are living in your sister’s house, I will go to visit both of you one of these days.”

The teacher said that to Yale with a gentle expression on her face.

“Thank you very much. However, I attend all the Warrior and Magus Classes. Furthermore, after the last class, I also have one more hour of training with my master. So, I don’t know if the teacher can visit our house in those hours.”

Swordmad’s particular class finishes at midnight, and then Yale will have eight hours until the classes started again, but those hours weren’t normal hours to visit someone’s house.

Ange didn’t attend any Warrior Classes, so she had the morning free.

On the other hand, Yale was the student with more classes in the whole academy because he even had to attend the private lessons with Swordmad.

“Don’t worry; I can go early in the morning.”

She smiled again before leaving the class.

The old woman had already heard about Yale’s schedule and had taken it into account.

The other three girls in the class also left, but no one else came to the classroom.

The only two students in the next class, the Poison Elemental Class, were Yale and Aizu.

Furthermore, the next teacher was also late, so both of them were left alone in the classroom.

They stood in silence until Aizu finally asked Yale.

“So, you have a master. Is he a teacher of the academy?”

She was surprised when Yale mentioned particular lessons with his master, that wasn’t something usual.

However, some teachers sometimes took a liking to a student and then that student became a personal disciple of the teacher.

“I have a master, but he isn’t a teacher here. He came to the academy with me, and stays here as a guest of the chairman.”

Swordmad’s existence wasn’t something that Yale would try to hide; he felt prideful to have him as master and would never deny their relationship.

“A guest of the chairman?”

Aizu looked confused; the chairman was one of the most powerful entities in the whole city, someone who was his guest couldn’t be normal.

“Yes, my master and the chairman are old friends. As I had an incident with the clan when I was leaving it to attend the academy my master needed to help me and in the end, he also ended leaving the clan to come with me.”

Aizu was astonished by Yale’s words, a master who could be the chairman’s old friend and could confront a clan for the sake of his disciple. Aizu also wanted to have such a master, but her luck wasn’t as good as Yale’s.

While the poison class teacher was still missing, Yale and Aizu spoke a lot about their lives and found that both had situations pretty similar, even though Aizu’s one was worse due to lacking any support.

Yale felt that Aizu’s clan were despicable for wanting to force her into marriage with the city’s most famous lewd old man, even Yale had heard about his infamies.

Aizu also confirmed that Yale not only didn’t rely on his clan, he already broke connections with them and the chain effect even provoked the decline of the clan. Aizu really admired that and wanted to achieve the same one day.

Aizu also used that time to ask Yale to practice magic together in the morning, before Yale’s warrior classes.

As she had also heard about his tight schedule when Yale was speaking with the healing class teacher, she chose to go training with him early at morning.

Yale accepted without doubting even for a second.

Aizu was the only one who also attended all the Magus Classes, and her talent was outstanding.

Then, she was a good magic practice companion for Yale.

The Magus Classes had no time to practice, only time for showing skills, so practice should be done in free hours.

Yale could practice the Battle Skills in the Warrior Classes with George and Zack, but he didn’t have someone to practice spells with him.

Yale could always ask his sister, but she didn’t train all the elements and Yale also didn’t want to disturb her training.

Furthermore, having a training partner with a similar level as his own was the best option to let both parties improve fast.

Aizu became very happy at Yale’s answer, but then the happy mood did fade away as the teacher arrived.

It was a gloomy middle-aged man, with black hair and a serious face, he was just the opposite to the warm-looking old woman from the healing class.

“Two students, not bad. I was expecting zero.”

The teacher spoke in a monotone voice.

“Learning Poison Magic could end your own lives. You aren’t ready for study it. Take those books and memorize them, don’t disturb me until you remember every single detail of every single page.”

The gloomy man generated two piles of books a threw them to Yale and Aizu. He had some type of spatial item, but it was hidden in his loose clothes.

Both of them didn’t dare to speak as the teacher seated and started to read a thick book.

That kind of class could have been boring for almost everyone, but Yale was a bookworm, so he liked a lot having an hour for reading new books.

Furthermore, with the system’s database, remembering every detail would be easy for him. However, even Yale wouldn’t be able to read all the books in a single class.

Aizu also didn’t have any problems regarding reading books, as she also used to be a loner she spent a lot of time reading even if she didn’t reach Yale’s extremes.

The class ended as silently as started; the teacher didn’t even bother to retrieve the books. Yale and Aizu were responsible for taking care of them until the next class.

The last class was the Darkness Elemental Class, that time four guys and one girl came to attend it.

The teacher also had a gloomy face, but he was an old man his voice was grave in contrast with the monotone voice of the previous teacher.

That class helped Yale to understand better how his Stealth Passive Skill worked as it’s effect fitted with the darkness element.

However, he didn’t obtain any enlightenment about it, obtaining enlightenment wasn’t that easy after all.

Yale and Aizu were the only ones who didn’t show any spells in that class.

Out of the other five students, the girl was the one with the best abilities in the darkness element, but the four guys weren’t far from her.

However, their exhibitions of spells didn’t amaze Yale nor Aizu.

Because they could be sure that those five didn’t have more than a mid-low grade talent in darkness.

Furthermore, those five didn’t attend any other class; the darkness element was most likely their only affinity.

That class also ended and the first day of lessons finished to everyone except Yale who still had his particular lesson with Swordmad.

Yale said goodbye to Aizu, and they agreed to meet at six o’clock to train magic.

Aizu didn’t want to say goodbye to Yale, but she didn’t have any valid reason to accompany him, so she could only leave.
