(New book ~ Ask for collection ~ Ask for recommended tickets ~)

"Hmm, I'm not late, am I?" asked Alice, sitting down next to Hural. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

"No, Professor Fowles hasn't started yet. Hular replied as he sorted out his textbooks and prepared them. "And I don't think it senses if someone is late. ”

"Whew, it's fine. Alice wiped the sweat from her head. "I thought I was going to be late, I got lost in the hallway, and as they said, the hallway of this castle is a disaster. ”

"Huh, looking at you standing here unscathed, I don't see any disaster. ”

It was a lesson in the history of magic, and with the presence of the history of magic teacher, the entire class fell silent.

It's a ghost!

Alice opened her mouth in surprise as she looked at the figure in front of her who had passed through the wall and then stopped standing still above the podium.

"How could they choose a ghost as their teacher? It's incredible!" said Hural, leaning over and whispering in Alice's ear.

"History class chose a ghost who didn't know how much time had passed, and wow, all I can say was that the principal was really creative. ”

Alice looked straight ahead, and said without looking back, "It's all about the history it has experienced, and it's a genius idea." ”

However, this so-called genius idea made Alice regret it ten minutes after the start of the class.

It's so boring!

The ghost professor was telling history in a non-hesitating tone, as dry as an unoiled fried egg.

"Hular, lend me notes in the evening. Alice greeted the Indian girl next to her, then put her hands on her chest, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

"Hey?" The girl could only sigh helplessly when she saw that Alice was so bold that she ignored the professor in the first class and went straight to sleep, and then focused on the boring lesson.

And the ghost professor on the stage didn't notice that there were students below who were so bold that they slept directly in class, and continued to talk in a straight tone without any waves.

"Is class over?" Alice opened her eyes and woke up to the noise in her ears, looking at Hural, who was packing up her textbooks and notes.

"Well, but the next class preparation will begin. Hullal quickly put away his notebook and stood up.

"Huh, so fast?" said Okay, and Alice packed her things.

After all, it's just a lonely textbook on the table, just pick it up, and you don't even have to put the pen away, because Alice didn't take it out at all.

"What do I remember about the next class?"

"The head of our academy, Professor Phelan's magic class," Hurrah said with a cheer.

"Uh... What's wrong?" Alice didn't understand what the Indian girl next to her was cheering for.

"Magic lessons, magic lessons! We can learn magic. ”

"Isn't that normal? Since this school is for wizards, it's normal to teach us magic, right? Alice said as she walked unhurriedly. She didn't have any sense of anticipation for the upcoming magic class, because she had already studied all the textbooks before the start of school.

Although I haven't actually operated it, I can be said to be proficient in the movements, spells, gestures, etc. in the textbook, and if I do it in real terms, Alice will definitely be able to master the trick of casting spells at once.

"Let's start the roll call. ”

"First, Alice Norregi. ”

"Here!"

Hearing her name, Alice stood up and raised her hand in reply, and when she saw Professor Phellan's nod, she sat down again.

"It's not magic at all, it's like people in the ordinary world, and you have to manually roll call people in class? I thought that as soon as I entered the classroom and sat in a chair, the professor would know who was there and who didn't. ”

"And why didn't he fly, and put a book under his feet?"

As soon as Alice sat down, she couldn't wait to complain to Hural beside her, but she didn't notice that she was only halfway through her speech when Hural kept glaring at her.

"Miss Alice, we're sorry that our school doesn't have the magic to automatically roll out names as soon as you enter the classroom and sit on a chair. ”

"Also, why don't I fly? Miss Alice, I'm not a ghost. ”

The voice behind her caused Alice's body to stiffen directly in her chair, as if she had been hit by Medusa's petrified magic.

Because Alice's complaining was too fast, she began to complain when Phelan hadn't named the next person and her attention was still on Alice, so she was noticed by Phelan all of a sudden.

The last sentence caused the whole class to burst into laughter, dispelling the nervousness of the freshmen in their first magic class.

"I'm sorry, Professor Phelan, I'm not ......," Alice turned around and apologized to Professor Phelan in a panic.

"Okay, pay attention next time. With that, Phelan left Alice's table and returned to the podium to continue the roll call.

Unexpectedly, Professor Phelan let himself go like this, and Alice blinked and looked at Hural.

"Will he let me go like this? Won't he deduct my points?Or is he going to settle accounts in the future?" Alice learned the lesson of the last time, staring intently at Ferran in front of her, while gently squirming her lips, and the mosquito-like voice came into the ears of the little sister-in-law beside her.

"Isn't it surprising that he is the best teacher in our school and the head of our pigeon house, so how can he deduct points for such a small matter? As for the future reckoning, how is it possible, Alice, you are thinking too much. ”

Alice opened her mouth, trying to say something more.

"Okay! ”

Ferran continued to name the matter casually, completely leaving the things just now behind.

Then the course officially began.

――It's officially started!

There is no need to draw a wand or recite a spell.

This lesson was all about Phelan introducing the new students to what so-called magic was all about, what was the correct way to hold a wand, and so on.

disappointed Alice, who wanted to be in the limelight for a while.

Disappointment, as she was about to leave the classroom with her textbooks in her arms, Phelan called Alice.

"Is there anything wrong, Professor Phelan?" asked Alice, with a question, with a sense of apprehension.

"Miss Alice, I'm sorry to waste a little of your time, I don't think you have a class tonight, right?"

In Phellan's inexplicable gaze, Alice was so tight that she stammered in her answer.

"Yes...... Yes...... Professor Phelan ...... We don't have any classes in Year 1 tonight, but I think ...... I think...... I think I'm free tonight. ”

Alice thinks Fran is going to settle the account for her rudeness in class.

"I'm sorry, Miss Alice, could you come to my office tonight? ”

"Well, don't be nervous, it's about compensating for your life alone. ”

Seeing that Alice was so frightened that she even sweated, Phelan smiled comfortingly, and added a reassuring sentence at the end
