Magi’s Grandson

Progressing Without Knowing

The next morning, I immediately went to Sicilys house to pick her up.

I cast Gate in the vacant room prepared for me in Sicilys house, and when it opened, Sicily and Maria were already waiting on the other side.

Good morning. Youre already waiting.

Good morning s.h.i.+n-kun. Because youre here to pick me up, I cannot afford to make you wait.

Go~od mor~ning*, because I was somehow rather anxious, I got up early.

[T/N: She said this while yawning.]

It looks like theyre ready to set off immediately. But before that, I have to greet Sicilys parents.

I left the room and headed for the dining room to greet the others.

Good morning, Cecil-san, Irene-san.

Oh, good morning, s.h.i.+n-kun.

Ah, good morning, s.h.i.+n-kun.

The two people returned the greetings. It looks like Cecil-sans about to go to work; unlike the formal wear he was wearing during yesterdays entrance ceremony, he was wearing a suit today. A cravat was coiled around his neck, giving him a stylish appearance, and a cool ambiance.

Nn? s.h.i.+n-kun, is there something the matter?

Ah, I was staring at him too much. I wonder if that was a little rude?

Ah, Im sorry. I was thinking you looked very stylish and cool. Are you heading off to work now?

Hahaha, thank you. Ill be heading off to work soon. Also, these clothes were chosen by my wife; I do not have the ability to dress like this. I dont really concern myself with clothing.

Oh my, fufufu, thank you for your praise, s.h.i.+n-kun. Shall I also choose clothing for s.h.i.+n-kun?

N-no, its alright.

Ah, you dont need to be reserved.

I started talking to Irene-san who was, fufufu, laughing.

s.h.i.+n-kun! Its about time we leave! Father, too! You also need to head off to work!

Sicily came and urged us to quickly get going.

Ah? Really, Sicily, fufufu.

Wh-what is it, mother?

Nothing? Theres no problem?

Re-really!

This is the first time I had ever seen this kind of Sicily. As I thought, the expressions she shows to her family are different. They are more vibrant.

s.h.i.+n-kun! Lets go already!

O-okay.

Sicily took hold of my arm and dragged me out of the dining room.

Oh, my, ufufu.

Sicily has grown up to become an adult

While listening to their voices, we walked towards the back room.

Although I dont really have to open Gate at this place, its a good spot when taking our surroundings into consideration. Its tactless to use magic in a place where people consume their meals.

When I was about to open the gate, Maria sudden spoke,

Hey, how long are you guys going to link arms for?

Now that she mentioned it, I recalled my arm getting grabbed.

Ah! Im s-s-s-sorry!

Eh? I dont really mind.

Or rather, I thought was lucky.

Ara? Did I say something unnecessary?

Maria sported a broad grin.

Ge-geez! Maria!

Hehehe, you really are so cute!

Two girls being playful with each other. Its a good scene; it really is a good scene!

Hey, were going now.

Yes~

Through the gate, we arrived at my house.

Oh, Sicily-san, Maria-san, good morning.

Morning to both of you.

Good morning. Merlin-sama, Melinda-sama.

Good morning.

Here, too, was an exchange of greetings. It looks like we cannot leave for school easily.

Then, grandpa, grandma, were off.

Ah, do you best.

Listen, okay? Remember not to do anything ras.h.!.+

The long awaited cla.s.ses are finally starting, but Im restricted from doing anything; honestly, I dont really want to agree to it

I get it already, grandma.

Or rather, when these two people came to see us off, the both of them looked like my genuine grandpa and grandma.

Really, why dont they just get back together.

Then, for the next 15 minutes, we walked to school on foot. Along the way, I did not forget to use Search Magic. If there was a rapid increase of magic power, I would immediately know about it.

In the end, we arrived at the academy without any incident. Although there was something that was bothering me a little, the two girls who looked nervous exhaled a sigh of relief when we arrived at the academy.

However, because the opponent is from the same academy, its too early to let our guards down. However, it is still safer inside the academy, since there are professors and other students around. Considering he has already been warned by Gus twice, theres a chance he might not mess with us inside the school premises.

When we arrived at the cla.s.sroom, most of the students were already there.

Morning s.h.i.+n. As expected of you; despite being just admitted, youre already friendly with girls.

Morning Gus and youre too noisy! Also, you already know the reason why.

Although I already knew, I couldnt help but tease you.

Why you

Good morning s.h.i.+n-san.

Good morning s.h.i.+n-dono.

The two who greeted me were his escorts. And as usual, Julius was speaking like a Samurai.

Ah, good morning.

After I greeted everyone else, Alice came barging in.

Im here! Did I make it on time!? Im safe, right?!

Although you made it what do you think will happen to you if you barely make it in time for the first day of cla.s.s?

Well, you see, because I was looking forward to todays lesson, I couldnt fall asleep last night, and so I accidentally overslept.

Are you a kid!?

In this world, youre considered as an adult when you reach the age of 15.

Good morning everyone. Homeroom is starting, so everyone please take your seat.

After the exchange of dialogue was done, Alfred-sensei arrived. She really was barely on time.

Everyones already here, so once again, good morning everyone.

Good morning.

Now then, I will announce the schedule for today. As I mentioned yesterday, we will have a tour around the academy this morning. Right after lunch, well have magic practice. I will then guide you to gather around the First Practice Field; you dont have to bring anything in particular. Though I said that, everyone here already knows how to cast extra-dimensional storage s.p.a.ce. As expected of S-cla.s.s. That concludes todays agenda. Does anyone have any questions?

There was no bag on anyones desk. This proved that everyone present knew how to cast extra-dimensional storage s.p.a.ce. However, on the way to school this morning, there were some students who were carrying bags, so I guess that meant that not all students could cast it. Whether one can use extra-dimensional storage s.p.a.ce or not is one of the indicators for a student to advance to S-cla.s.s. Or so it seems.

The tour around the academy consists of the two school buildings. One of the buildings is where all the cla.s.srooms are. There are four cla.s.ses per grade; the freshmen cla.s.s is on the third floor, the soph.o.m.ore cla.s.s is on the second floor, and the senior cla.s.s is on the first floor.

The second building consists of the faculty office, student council room, laboratories, and club research laboratories.

Regarding the research clubs, well, they seem similar to extra-curricular activities or so to speak. The study of emission-type magic, Offensive Magic Research Society; the research of producing various magic tools by taking advantage of Enchantment magic, Life Improvement Research Society;the study of body strengthening magic, Body Language Research Society, and so on.

Whats up with the last one!? Its the wrong way to live ones life as a Magician! When Julius heard it, his eyes started sparkling. As I thought!

If I did not have the mission of being His Highness escort, then by all means, I would partic.i.p.ate in that research group degozaru

What, if youre concerned about me, then theres no need; its alright if you join it.

No, that kind of reasoning wont do degozaru.

This place is the Advanced Magic Academy, you know? The Royal Family has no authority whatsoever in here. Thus, there is no authority that binds you to me.

However

Well, since its only inside the academy, its alright for you to have your freedom here.

Your Highness I am much obliged

Gus was very thoughtful towards Julius. I honestly thought the scene was amazing.

While I was thinking so, I saw Gus grinning.

Ah! This guy, could it be because he thought this escort was bothersome, so hes trying to keep himself away? Julius, you have been deceived!

Gus You

Hm? What is it s.h.i.+n, did you also find a research society you wanted to join?

No, I didnt have such thoughts

I see, thats how it would be. I didnt think any of the research society would be satisfactory for you to join. Better yet, how about starting your own research society?

O-oh?

What is he suddenly rattling about? It looks like hes trying to deceive me.

Hooo~ the research society which Walford-kun would create; that thought sounds very interesting.

Before I was able to press Gus for an answer, Alfred-sensei seconded Gus opinion.

Thats right, sensei. Im very interested in what kind of research society s.h.i.+n creates and the activities involving it.

Its certainly interesting.

Even the ever-so-quiet Rin, who usually doesnt partic.i.p.ate in discussions, spoke.

I [atas.h.i.+] am also interested. If he ever does make one, I want to join!

I [watas.h.i.+] would maybe also join it.

I [boku] also want to join, but most likely, all of S-Cla.s.s would join it.

Sensei, how does one create a research society?

To start a research society, you have to submit an application form consisting of the names of five or more members and an advising teacher.

If thats the case, then we must also come up with a proper name for a research group.

Everyone suddenly starting talking amongst themselves. What is this? Before I knew it, it seemed like it had been decided that I will be starting a research society.

H-hey everyone, wait a minute

If s.h.i.+n-kun starts his own research society, then it would be unthinkable for me not to join it, right?

Eh? Ah, thats right?

Sicily also said such a thing.

How about this! The name Heroes Research Society? We can get s.h.i.+n-kun to tell us all about Merlin-sama and Melinda-sama!

What the h.e.l.l is that?!

Well, yeah, but theres already that: researching, doc.u.menting, and discussing everything about them, in addition to investigating how Merlin-sama and Melinda-sama reached such heights.

There is!?

Seriously!?

Is that so, thats too bad.

We can decide what kind of society well make after the afternoon cla.s.ses are done.

Thats all good as well. Then, lets decide at that time.

If thats the case, then Ill bring an application with me, and well decide then on who will be joining, okay?

Its been decided! Without listening to my opinion whatsoever, its been decided!!

Umm, you guys Can you guys not decide everything on your own?

What is it? As I thought, theres some other research society youd rather join?

As I thought, Heroes Research Society?

No because you see, it sounds unpleasant

Walford, I think its a good idea. I believe its a good idea for you to create your own research society, and as for the name, you can change it later on. Also, dont you think itll be difficult to choose from various other research societies?

That is probably how itll be

Furthermore, Ill volunteer myself as your advisor. Also, the whole cla.s.s will probably partic.i.p.ate as members. With this, there wont be a problem.

Thats right, s.h.i.+n-kun! Lets do it!
