Vol 1 Chapter 1 (1/2)

PART 1

—This ’s scene was the same as usual

The ho attendance

“I’ the roll call… Arue! Kaikai! Sakiberi!”

The students, ere called by the teacher, responded accordingly

They were all girls

This school separated boys and girls into different classes

There were only eleven students in the classrooot to me quickly

“Megumin!”

“Present”

After getting my response, the homeroom teacher nodded in satisfaction

“Okay, everyone is present Then…”

“Te- Teacher!”

The student next to me raised her hand, just as the teacher was about to close the nae of tears

“My name has not been called yet…”

“Eh? Oh, sorry! There is only one student on the next page Sorry, sorry! Then… Yunyun!”

“Present!”

Yunyun, who had her hair tied with ribbons, replied as her na left out, yet she merely blushed

—This was a sic

When they caeneral knowledge in this school At the age of 12, they would gain the advanced job known as “arch wizard”, and began learning ic

The Crience and vast amount of mana In ic

Here, raduation

In other words, everyone in this classrooic

The students here accuic they desired

Different ic required different amount of skill points

The ic, the more skill points it required

Besides this, the type of ic the students here wanted to learn is definitely—

Advanced ic

This hat all wizards aspired to, the ability to use all kinds of powerful spells

In the Hoic was the only way to be officially recognized as a wizard…

“Now, announcing the test results As usual, the top three will receive the Skill Up Potion Starting with the third! Arue!”

With my peripheral vision, I looked at the student who lazily caet the potion, then I looked out of thein a daze

“Second place, Yunyun! You live up to your naent”

“Ah, ye- yes!”

I looked at the side, as Yunyun stood up, blushi+ng

Besides killing ain experience points and level up, skill points can only be gained by drinking the rare Skill Up Potion

Therefore, everyone was fighting to get the potion in order to learn advanced ic as soon as possible

“Finally, in the first place, Megumin!”

Having et the potion

Yunyun, as next to me, appeared vexed by this

“Your results are very consistent! I always thought that you should have enough skill points to learn advanced ic… But never mind, continue to work hard!”

After taking the potion and returning to ain

Froe

Was the unnah spirits?

As the ho other students, I quietly took out a card from my chest pocket

This card was called Adventurer’s Card In the job field, it ritten Arch Wizard

Level 1 There were 45 skill points displayed below

In the available skill list, the words “Learning ‘advanced

“The other students should learn froic! Now then, let’s start the lesson!”

Ignoring the horay words in my card’s skill list…

“Learning ‘Explosion ic’ requires 50 skill points”

In the Criic to be officially recognized as a wizard, but that was not the ic I wanted to learn

The destructive spell casted by that robed person was still fresh in my mind

I would definitely learn Explosion ic

And, soic—

PART 2

During the break after the first period ended, a hand slammed on my desk with a loud “Pat!”

“Meguht?”

The person talking to me was Yunyun, who sat next to me

She was the daughter of the Criic Clan chief An all-rounder as also the class monitor

“Fine By the hat is my breakfast for today? I’m famished”

“Is, is that so? Today’s ! Why is one conclusion? To- today I definitely will not lose! This tihter!”

She proclaimed herself to be my rival, yet she treated me to free meals every day

As Yunyun made her declaration, she placed her meal box on my desk

I placed the potion I received earlier on the desk as well

“I will decide the content of this hter can surelya rare potion and a packed meal is unfair anyway”

“I understand Megumin, you can decide the match’s content this time”

She’s so easy to scam

“Then, thethe next physical examination, whoever is slimmer and more environmentally friendly…”

“That’s cheating! There is no way I can win Megumin in this!”

What…!

“Although I decided the content, I’ry when you say that so confidently! We are at the sa of a difference! Just how narcissistic are you, little girl!”

“Ouch, ouch! Stop The rown, right? If you are so energetic, why not have aphysical education class?”

I was still knocking Yunyun to the sound of “Pat! Pat! Pat!”, as the other students left for the infirmary

According tothat I heard as a child – “Becoe one’s breasts” – may have some basis

Probably, mana circulation allowed blood to flow rowth Most of the powerful wizards in the village got big breasts

Therefore, as the top student in class, I would have big breasts soon

Still indulging in fantasy, I walked towards the infirmary Yunyun hurriedly followed behind

“Hey, Meguames instead? Ah, don’t walk so fast…!”

When we entered the infirun

Mine was an all-girls class I was the shortest one

I thought this was a nutrition issue

Thanks to ic item artisan with special artistic sensibility, my family was in poverty all the time

The inconsistent rowth

“Ah, Arue has grown You’re already the first in class Good, next is… Megumin… Hm I already told you, even if you stick your chest out, it is pointless I use exae the results even if you take a deep breath and hold it”

My little bit of effort asted The infiric to determine my true physical statistics

“Hhtly taller Next is Yunyun”

“Oh no, because I have becouain… Ouch, ouch! Why? I lost the u me?”

“Ask your God damn breasts!”

“Megurowth!”

PART 3

I ate the breakfast that I plundered from Yunyun

“Megu made from natural Neroid It is most suitable for dessert!”

“Thanks Ah, there is no spoon”

“Ah, so-, sorry Please wait”

I silently ate Yunyun’sat her as she hurriedly took out the spoon At this ti and spoon on the desk

“Wrong! I’er! Why ently?”

“I feel like I’m a kitten or puppy fed by Yunyun every day So, isn’t it about ti the way”

“Eh! Can I really…? No, it’s not like that! We are rivals! Besides, your so-called ‘buy so away my food!”

When did I become her rival?

Whatever, I returned thethe content

“Thanks for your hospitality The flavor is not bad today Very delicious Tomorrow, I’d like to have more protein”

“Ah, is, is that so? Then tomorrow I…”

Yunyun took her , and recovered her wits

“I, I already said, this is very strange! Why must I…”

“Get back to your seats Lesson is starting Hey, don’t bring pudding to school Confiscated!”

“Ah!” X2

Inadvertently entering the classroo

The teacher ignored Yunyun, as softly …” next to me, and started the lesson

The hoic syste students to take notes

We silently took notes The teacher blatantly ate the pudding while explaining

“Today I will explain special ic written here Eleic There is no need to explain these further You should already know that advanced ic”

The hoic on the blackboard

“In this world, besides advanced ic, known as Blast h these ic systems are very powerful, they are hard to control and consume a lot of mana Therefore, few people actually use them”

I focused on the pudding being eaten by the teacher, but suddenly reacted to the teric’

“Firstly, Blast ic can smash even bedrocks The wizards who learn this will be recruited by the govern Blast ic Therefore, unless you want to be a civil servant working in civil engineering, it is best not to learn it”

Blast ic… I wrote it neatly in my note book, seriously listen to the teacher’s explanation withouta word

“Next is Detonation endary Arch Wizard In the face of her barrage of Detonationic consumes a lot of mana An ordinary wizard can only cast it a few ti this ic is still not practical”

Detonation ic—

I wrote down “Detonation, Detonation”

At this point, the teacher put down the chalk, and returned to eating the pudding

Seriously, he did not explain the ic!

“Teacher About the Explosion ic…”

I stood up and raised my hand All my classhed

“Forget about Explosion h ae mana reserves cannot cast it successfully because of the ih to cast it, the ie the physical terrain If it is cast inside a dungeon, the entire dungeon will collapse The explosive noise will also attract ic is simply useless”

PART 4

—The third period was language lesson

“Everyone, for Crirauic Clan”

Upon being called, I stood up

“Because the speed of casting and accuracy of pronunciation will affect the control of ic”

“Three points, far froh”

“T-Three points!?”

I only received Three points… Three points…

I sat down dejectedly Yunyun, as next to me, was called

“Next, Yunyun! Tell me the correct answer”

“Yes! The sealed, ancient e of past eras It is necessary to learn them in order to decipher forbidden curses and spells”

“Thirty points! Good job on ic, but the other parts are wrong!”

“Thirty points!? … Thirty points…”

Yunyun sat down dejectedly The teacher seehed deeply

“Sigh… Are you two really the top in class…”

“Ah!” X2

The teacher’s attitude caused us to exclainored us, and called another student

“Arue! For the Crirammar and vocabulary important!”

The third in class, Arue, stood up, raising her head and sticking out her chest

“To prevent the appearance of strange aliases like ‘Fla ue before a battle and hype up the mood”

“One hundred points! Yes, our aliases are very ie When you graduate, you need to decide on your alias as well In the next physical education lesson, I will give you all a demonstration!”

PART 5

Calling it a schoolyard was an exaggeration It was essentially an open space created by using fire etation in front of the school

The teacher, earing a cloak, had been burning things for some time now

The rising smoke seemed to be thicker now than when I arrived at school The teacher must have came to school really early just to do this

As the smoke rose, the sky darkened

The teacher probably burnt expensive rain- the clouds in advance

When the teacher was satisfied with the size of the clouds drifting in the sky, she nodded slightly

“Good Next will be coic Clan, what is thecombat? Hm… Yunyun, you answer!”

“M-combat… is, is calmness! The calmness to be unshaken by any event is the most important!”

“Five points! Next is Megumin!”

“Five points!?”

Yunyun, after being given Five points by the teacher, beca “Five points…”

What was thein combat? That was obvious!

“Destructive power! The power to lay waste to everything! Only power is the most important!”

“Fifty points! Power is indeed necessary If there is not enough destructive power, the Criht But it is not entirely correct, so only 50 points!”

“I got merely 50 points…!?”

“I only got five points…”

The teacher looked at our dejected expressions, and spat on the ground, as if saying, “The top students are so disappointing”

“Pui!”

“Ah!” X2

The hateful teacher ignored our cries, and called another student

“Arue! Surely, you will know! To someone like you, who cover your left eye with an eye patch, what is thein combat!”

If the class her eye, she would be regarded as “really beautiful” Arue, who didn’t look like she belonged to the saer to lift up her eye patch

“It’s being cool”

“One hundred points! Not bad, Arue I’ll give you a Skill Up Potion! We, Criantly! Noill demonstrate…”

“Call of Sandstorm!”

I didn’t knohat spell the teacher had been casting A dark clouds that had been there since earlier, bluish-white lightning flashed

A powerfulinvoked, as unnatural winds howled

My class winds The teacher took out the staff she had prepared, and raised it high in the air

“Mine is the naic…”

After the teacher declared her na struck the tip of the staff

Then, the teacher flipped her cloak, which fluttered wildly in the wind

“The strongest hoic Clan, the one ill eventually become the principal…!”

Following the teacher’s declaration, an even bigger stroke of lightning flashed

With the lightning glow behind her, the teacherher cloak

“Too cool!” X3

As my classmates cheered loudly, I looked around Only Yunyun held her hands to her cheeks, trehtly

Because the teacher was too cool, Yunyun didn’t dare to look at her directly I heard her whispers softly

“Ho e…!”

It seeirl eird

I heard that after entering puberty, soe people This phenomenon is called Chuunibyou She probably had it too

Note (): See aniawikiacom/wiki/Chuunibyou

In the howling winds, the teacher finally ,

“Good! Pair up with a classmate you are close to! Then, make a cool self-introduction to each other, be conscientious about experi with poses!”

Hearing the teacher’s words, Yunyun’s body trembled

I wanted to knoas wrong with her, so I stared at her She looked around uncertainly, then stole a glance at me

Surely, she wanted to pair up with me, but it was difficult for her to ask because she declared herself as my rival… How troublesome

I decided to forcefully pair with her and make her cry with my coolness But at this time, someone interrupted

“Megumin, do you have a partner? If not, do you want to pair with me?”

Turning around, I was confronted with a pair of big boobs, which did not see displayed intentionally… This makes me even more annoyed

At that moment, “Ah” —a soft voice was heard behind me

There is no need to turn around to look It was surely Yunyun

The eye patch-wearing class war

Her boobs bounced along with her jumps…

… This one was an enemy!

“Fine Based ona powerful arch wizard is very high Therefore, here and now, let’s decide who is better!”

“Can statistics even analyze such things!?”

Yunyun retorted accordingly, but I had no time for that

“Does everyone have a partner? There should be one extra student, ill pair with me, the teacher”

“Eh? Ah!”

Yunyun looked around nervously, finding herself alone She walked towards the teacher, dejectedly

……

“Arue I’ physical education lesson Maybe it’s because the food I got fro weird in it”

“Ah!?”

Hearing ratitude and surprise

“Teacher, I’ lesson?”

“What? No You have never attended a single physical education lesson properly Today’s lesson is especially important Don’t pretend to be sick”

Facing the relentless teacher, I round

“No Don’t try this trick on me…”

“I-I can’t suppress it anymore…! If this persists, the one within me will take possession of this body…!”

“What, Megu…!? It can’t be helped, I pero to the infirmary Let the teacher in the infirmary reinforce the seal”

“I understand Then I will leave now”

“—Okay, is everyone now in pairs? Start now!”

I listened to the teacher’s instructions, as I walked towards the infirmary

If the physical education lesson expended the calories I ain from Yunyun’s packed meal, it would be a waste

After I received the nutritionpohich was also sold in the market) from the infirmary teacher, I lay down on the bed

In the quiet infir about what the teacher said previously

—Explosion ic

I wrapped my head in the blanket in resentment

“Te- Teacher! It’s raining! …or rather, it’s raining sand! We have already witnessed teacher’s cool poses, so can you stop the rain?”

“The tulips carefully planted by the principal in the flowerbed have been bloay!”

“Ca- can’t stop it! This is terrible The hest point today My suppressed power has been released…! Let me stop this rain! Do not worry about !”

“Teacher! Be honest, you only thought about the performance earlier You didn’t think about how to stop this at all!”

As I listened to the voices from the schoolyard, I slowly closed my eyes—

PART 6

“Hey, Megu off your Skill Up Potion? Is there so you want to say?”

“Nothing… Oh yes, Yunyun’s packed lunch looks delicious today”

“Is, is that so? Besides the box you have stolen, I ive it to you! This portion is not for wager If this packed lunch gets stolen too, I won’t have anything to eat, so I won’t challenge you!”

“……”

“Stop Don’t dangle the potion before me Quickly drink it already!”

“……”

“Do-, don’t! I won’t give it to you! Ev- even if you show such a sad face… I will… only give you half…”

After eating the lunch I got from Yunyun, an announcement was made in the school

“Based on Teacher Pucchin’s analysis, aDoubtlessly, it is due to the evil God of rain and sloth as sealed so, the principal confirical influences,the rainfall, therefore all afternoon lessons are cancelled The weather outside currently has strong winds, lightning, and heavy rain, o home Therefore, please do some self-study in school”

It appeared that the teacher shoved all the responsibility on the evil God

As I was plotting on how to use this situation to scam some dinner, some students stood up

They are probably going to the school library to pass time

—There is so I want to research too

I wildly shove the food I forcefully took from Yunyun into my mouth…

“I already said half! Only giving you half!”

After tossing the lunch box at Yunyun, I ran to the library

This was the the Hoic school which produced many arch wizards, so the library should be well-stocked

Froends to dubious practical manuals

Yunyun, who ca in the shelves for practical manuals

“Abstinence Magical Manual for Making Friends”, “Guide: Even Snails Can Be Good at Communications” ……

Yunyun took a few books with titles I couldn’t understand, but looking at her eyes that seeloith excitement, I decided to keep her muttered words to myself

I continued searching for er across the books on the shelf

“Secret Origins of Cridom”, “Dukes of hell Series, Volume 4, Prophetic Demon”, “The Truth About Residents from the Other World” ……

Interesting books flashed by one after another Finally, I found what I was looking for

“Practicability of Explosion Magic” ……I took this book, and flipped through it

“Explosion ic It is the ic that can inflict injury to everything in existence Currently, the way to learn this ic is mostly lost, only known by hu-lived non-human wizards And, not only is it difficult to learn, its opportunity for use is also very liic are also known as Minefield Wizards, frequently rejected by adventurers who are looking for party members”

Reading this, htly shaken

In the scene I witnessed as a child, it was a destructive

I had always adic—

“Firstly, a person with ordinary talents cannot use it Even if it has been learnt, it cannot be used due to the vast aic was developed In the present situation, only non-hu lives, hiic……”

……Reading this, I put the book back in the shelf

I got the feeling that if I kept reading, I would be even more devastated

At this ti title next to where I put the book

“Rhodes the Untamed”

Attracted by the strange title, I reached out to take the book

—The story was about a senile old king as accompanied by two retainers as he roae the world

Due to an unexpected incident, the villagers learnt of the old overnor of various cri the villagers were lying

The old uilty and hand out sentences to the villagers and the corrupt governor As a result, both the villagers and the governor banded together and defeated the old man

The oldthat he will raze this land, while his two retainers consoled hiht him home

After fighting together on the saovernor learnt the benefits of unity Not long after, they built a great city there, unsurpassed by any other cities—

……Where is the second volume?

I searched for the sequel of this book

“Hey, what is this book? Super funny! What, don’t you have friends?”

In the quiet mood of the library, there was a sudden burst of noise that was incompatible with the serene mood

I looked over, and saw that it was Yunyun and another classmate

This is… This situation is…!

“Friend… That…”

“You don’t have any, right? Otherwise, ould you… ‘You Can Even Befriend Fishes’…? Hey, hey Forget about this book At least choose one about mammals…”

“Stop right there!”

I ju at the latter sternly

“Your goal is first to bully and toy with this pitiful girl, then take advantage of her broken heart and pretend to be her friend in order to ht?! Even if you can hide this from others, you cannot hide it from me!”

“Ha!?”

After being exposed by me, the classmate appeared to panic

“Hey, wait, I don’t understand what you are talking about! I’ an interesting book…”

“Me-, Megue book you have read? H with me…”

The classmate and Yunyun separately explained to me, but—

“No, I merely detected a dishar better to do And because I skipped the earlier lesson, I’m the only one who did not practice self-introduction, so I’m somewhat dissatisfied”

“Way too unreasonable!” X2

Probably because someone heard the shouts of Yunyun and the classmate, the library doors opened

“Hey, you people are too noisy Be quiet in the library I will think of a way to stop the evil God’s rain The principal’s and h to suppress the evil God somewhat…”

“Teacher, didn’t you tell us that it is your suppressed power that was released…! The evil God is too pitiful, if it gets the bla!”

The class about the irresponsible teacher

“No, the villagers have checked the Tomb of the Evil God It seems some idiot messed with the seal, and broke it Apparently, there are still a few ht burst forth at any time After all, the seal is made specifically for the evil God, so its minions may have already escaped Therefore, before it is re-sealed, please do not go home alone”

The homeroom teacher told us
