All Power Wizard Part 1 Side Story Episode 008
Ep 3. Learning from falling (1)
“Last month’s entrance ceremony, last week’s new student welcoming party, and today’s comprehensive freshmen representative debate… … . The schedule is so tight that it’s very hectic, unlike at home where I was relaxed. But don’t worry. Who am I? My mom and dad’s proud daughter
Right? “I am the representative of our school’s new students!”
Square, square.
Irene wrote in beautiful handwriting on a piece of letter paper.
“This comprehensive new student representative debate is an event where new student representatives from all magic schools on the continent gather in one place and discuss. The mindset of a new student who has just entered school, how to wisely navigate first-year life, etc… … is discussed, although all
Even though it’s a different school, I think it’s a good idea to get to know each other in advance because you might meet them often at off-campus competitions in the future. “I don’t know if it would be a proper discussion if you brought in 10-year-olds.”
Jump up!
The door to the dormitory opened and a female student shouted.
“Irene! What are you doing! “We’re leaving now!”
“Ugh, wait a minute… … . “Almost done!”
Irene frowned incongruously.
He narrowed his eyes and frowned.
My hand writing letters became faster.
“Uh, now we have to leave for the discussion hall. Don’t worry about me. Because I am adapting well. And even though it’s a worldly place, it’s not necessarily a dangerous or strange place, so tell Dad that he can stop worrying about it. Okay, Dad? I will write another letter.J
「P.S. Please say hello to your brothers too.J
“It’s done.
Irene neatly folded the letter she had written and put it in the envelope.
Then, he lifted his coat and quickly left the dormitory.
Perfect.
On my way out, I didn’t forget to put the letter in the mailbox.
As Irene came running, the students who were waiting for her made a fuss.
“Why are you so late? “You almost missed the Mana train.”
“Uh, yeah, sorry.”
“Are you late because you were writing a letter home again? under
“Anyway, it’s unusual.”
Irene Prius.
10 years old.
A representative of new students who entered Seiki Women’s College at the top of their class and is known as the Yang Daesan Mac of the Reinark Empire Magic School.
Today, she goes to the ‘Ignit Magic Academy’ in the Kingdom of Rhedian, where the freshmen debate session is being held.
“We almost had a debate without a freshman representative. Irene, you know that you are our only hope, right?”
“Is that so… …
“Irene! “I only trust you!”
At Seiki Women’s University, we put our pride on the line.
* * *
The freshmen debate is held every year.
The location where the debate is held changes every year, but there is one thing that never changes.
That’s right, the topic.
The common theme asked every year is ‘What kind of students should we be? … .’am.
Based on this topic, the purpose is to have heated discussions, meet students from other schools to get to know each other, exchange with off-campus clubs, and develop a sense of competition with each other.
The venue for this year’s debate was decided to be the ‘Ignit Magic Academy’ in the Kingdom of Rhedian.
“Redian Kingdom, there was a magic school in this place too.”
“What are you talking about? “It may seem like this now, but the founder of this place is Archmage Froy Jan Ignit.”
“Froyan Ignit? Oh, that ow
“The wizard who turned the wizard Kinggram into an artifact and drove out the ogres who were occupying the human land to Sky Mountain?”
“huh. This place is also prestigious. If we only look at history… …
“But the practicality of recent graduates is not… …
All the students who arrived at the academy were gathered in groups of twos and threes into the academy library, guided by their seniors.
「Welcome, new students.」
『328th General Freshman Debate』
“What kind of students should we be?”
There was a message announcing the discussion hall on the wall of the library, and the names of each magic school were written on the tables arranged in a circle.
Ignit Magic Academy, Reinark Horseman Training Center, Seiki Women’s University, Oyota’s National Magic Education Institute, etc.
It is comprised of only the most famous magic schools in the southern part of the continent.
The students attending the debate are three freshmen representing each school.
They engage in a heated debate over a common topic… …
They expressed their determination to put on a good show at the debate, putting the school’s reputation and their personal honor on the line.
It has to be that way.
This may seem like a simple discussion place for cute freshmen, but there are also a large number of professors representing each school in attendance… … .
“Are you here, tower owner?”
“You should come. Aren’t they the new sprouts who will lead the continent in the future? “I have to see it with my own eyes.”
“Hook, I guess that person is the Flame King… … . Top owner.”
This is a place where even Flame King Theron, known as the King of Wizards, can observe.
From this point on, rather than a simple student debate, it was meant to be a battlefield without spears and swords that put the pride of magic schools at stake.
okay.
This discussion meeting has one purpose.
Who will catch the eye of King Yan?
Is it because they were conscious of this?
“Irene, are you okay?”
“O U” –9 O •
Irene couldn’t hide her nervousness.
she knew
That person.
You have to be in the eyes of King Yeom to grow properly.
Moreover, isn’t there a student next to him who is already favored by King Yeom?
‘Doom Prime.’
The only son of the Prime family that produced a sword master.
Good looks, serious talent, reliable
Even inside the house.
That man, who seemed to have everything in the world, was even loved by King Yeom.
Irene thought.
In this debate today, he will definitely defeat Doom Prime and become the main character.
That it will monopolize everyone’s attention.
“Doom Prime of the Demon Soldier Training Center. “If we just be careful over there, it looks like there won’t be any opponents, right?”
Irene quietly sighed at her classmate’s words.
nodded the dog.
I looked around, but there certainly didn’t seem to be any student that stood out as much as ‘Doom Prime’.
A student named Seta Mal Kiri, who attended as Oyota’s representative, looked like a local bully to anyone’s knowledge.
“After all, desert guys are so old-fashioned. That guy named Theta Malkyri. “It looks like you haven’t even washed your hair?”
“stop. Such simple disparagement of appearance only undermines our level.”
“Ah, Irene… …
“I admit it looks bad in some way.
But anyway, I am a student who came here to represent my country. You should never ignore it. know?”
“Yes. You’re right. “I’m sorry, I was so childish.”
” no.”
Irene’s eyes turned straight ahead.
The new students on the US side of Ignit Magic Academy, which could be said to be the home ground of this debate venue, did not particularly stand out.
The black-haired boy, wearing a name tag that reads ‘Ruin Ardel’, looked somewhat unconfident.
I just laid the line down.
Next to him, a boy named ‘Mikkel Gary Hill’ was smiling with a relaxed expression the whole time.
‘It’s an empty gangjeong.’
In Irene’s opinion, neither of them were a match for her.
Of course, this was not revealed externally and was just swallowed inside.
Even though he is young, he knows that a true beast does not need to show his claws.
When there was a bit of a war of nerves going on… … .
Professor Heidel, a member of the Ignit Magic Academy, walked forward and spoke with a slightly annoyed expression.
“The theme of this debate is, ‘What kind of students should we be?’ Now, let’s begin the 328th General Freshman Debate.”
♦ * ♦
There is no right answer in the debate.
There are no wrong answers, only ‘different opinions’.
The purpose of this debate is to listen to each other’s different opinions, sometimes respect them, sometimes refute them, and ultimately get everyone to agree with their opinions.
Therefore, there were no votes for or against, and there was no set order of speech.
If one person feels like he or she is monopolizing the speech too much, Professor Heidel will only stop them to a certain extent.
The most excited person in this debate was Irene Prius.
She was a fish out of water.
“Me! “I will announce it!”
“Miss Irene Prius. Please speak up.”
“This is Irene Prius from Seiki Women’s University. What kind of students should we be? It’s not a difficult problem. If you look at the collection of conversations with the emperor left behind by Jagis, the legendary tactician of the Reinark Empire, there is a passage like this. “Notes make a trustworthy person, conversations make a trustworthy person, and reading makes a perfect person.”
” Oh oh••••••
“We are lucky enough to have great books available at our fingertips. The book has the correct answer. great magic
To become a scholar, continuous research and reading must be supported.”
Irene, who clearly expressed her philosophy on learning by quoting from the book of talks by the teacher Jaygis, received applause from the students around her.
Irene, who smiled brightly as if she was satisfied with her own announcement, looked secretly toward King Theron.
Unlike the wind, King Yeom was not looking at himself.
The lips were slightly pouting.
“I read and researched consistently and listened carefully. Do you have any other opinions?”
A person raised his hand in response to Professor Heidel’s progress.
He was Mikel Garryhill from Ignit Magic Academy.
“Mikel Garryhill. Please speak up.”
“Ahem.”
Mikel stood up with a triumphant look on his face.
“This is Mikel Garryhill from the Academy. I listened carefully to what Ms. Irene Prius just gave. “You have a cute face and you speak clearly.”
“… … Instead of making rude remarks, please make a presentation.”
“Haha, you look cute when you get angry too.”
“Mikel Garryhill. This is a warning. Talking unrelated to the topic is prohibited.”
“Ah yes. Hmm.”
Mikel opened his mouth with a shameless expression, not at all discouraged by the warning.
“A collection of dialogues between the tactician Jaygis and the first emperor. Was the title of the book “Ask a Scholar?” I also read it. Since you talked about the interview house, let me talk about that too. Irene
“It is said that after the tactful teachings that Miss Prius had mentioned, the emperor responded as follows.”
“I am always ready to learn, but I do not like to be taught.”
As for Mikel, mate! He clapped loudly and spoke loudly.
“research’? Constant reading? Well, that’s good. It’s important. It’s important… … . Don’t you think this is too idealistic? We are 10 years old, but we know everything. We want to become strong wizards
I go to school for this. You have to work hard to increase your value, protect your family’s honor, and make a lot of money. To do that, we must focus on combat magic rather than burying ourselves in books.”
“I have an objection!”
“Mikel Garryhill. Are you finished speaking?”
” yes.”
Mikel shrugged his shoulders and relaxed, and Irene jumped up from her seat and retorted.
“Not all strong wizards become good wizards. research and exploration
“I think it is more important to maintain the basic skills of a magician.”
“Hey, why would you do that… … . You also know Miss Irene, right? In the end, all of this is done to make money. A strong wizard is a good wizard. “Can you deny it?”
The discussion hall became noisy.
Irene Prius makes the fundamental argument that one listens carefully to professors’ teachings, borrows the know-how of seniors, and finds meaning in books and research.
And, you have to become a strong wizard.
Mikel Garryhill is snobbish, but above all, he makes practical arguments.
The two opinions began to clash sharply.
They spat and refuted each other’s opinions for about ten minutes.
At that time, someone raised their hand.
“Uh, over there… … “Can I speak too?”
“••••••huh?”
A boy whose gaze was always cast down with an uncertain attitude.
Ruin Ardel.
“Please speak up.”
” yes.”
The right to speak passed to him, and Ruin stood up and asked carefully.
“I feel like the topics of discussion keep diverging.”
“Are you going astray?”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Ruin.
Even though we were having a good discussion, they looked at me and asked why I was pouring cold water on them.
Ruin asked in a low voice.
“Isn’t today a place to discuss the topic ‘What kind of wizard should I be?’ rather than ‘What kind of student should I be?’”
For a moment, there was silence in the discussion room.
