Kenshi o Mezashite Nyūgaku Shitanoni Mahō Tekisei 9999 Nandesukedo! ? Chapter 12 (2/2)

The defence barrier that Emilia constructed, was on the verge of collapsing

But, Laura cuts in the magic formula, poured in magic, and strengthened it.

Thanks to that, everyone had no scratch. It ended without anything happening.

「A 9 year old girl who had just entered school, cuts in my magic formula, and even strengthened it……what the, what was that. Even I, have pride at least」

It’s not like she had bad intentions.

Instead, I should’ve said thanks to her, for stopping it from becoming a devastation.

But, not being honest there, is my immature part.

Envy comes first.

I felt like all the hard work that I had done until now, was denied.

The path that I walked through for years, was only the first step to that girl, I was shown that.

「And to protect that small pride, I picked a fight with a student……Really, what am I doing」

If it was alright, at least during after school, I would’ve let her practice her sword.

More than that, after the freshmen got used to school quite a bit, Emilia would’ve said that herself.

But instead of that, Emilia was enraged by the words “there’s nothing to learn from someone who’s weaker than me”.

The opponent was a child, and also seriously.

Instructor failure. Adult failure.

While being conscious of that, Emilia, will be on a duel against Laura tomorrow. There is no change on that plan.

After all, I’m an adventurer.

There no way “normal adults” would exist in adventurers.

If they see someone stronger than themselves, challenging them is the only choice.

If not, you cannot say that you are an adventurer.

That is why half of the instructors, have experience of challenging the Great Sage and had met defeat.

「How childish」

There was co-workers that said that. But in that face “I’m jealous” is written.

「If you lost, I’m the one next」

There were also instructors who honestly said that.

Really, really, what a timely group.

Although they are usually making a bossy look in front of the students. Their mental age hadn’t changed since their teens.

They cannot help themselves wanting to fight.

In front of Laura Edmonds, who was a chunk of talents, ignoring and thinking that she was a different living thing than themselves, was the proof of being normal. It’s how adults think.

Emilia Arkland is 23 years old. After half a year, she would be 24.

But tomorrow, with all of her heart put into it, she is prepared to fight that super-genius.

Without caring about the win or loss, she is planning to recognize Laura’s freedom after school, this is already, a fight for herself.

Of course, if they’re going to do it, she’s planning to win.
