-Your chances of survival increase!
With the survival odds up, the duel with Kai ended. As expected, it was Ethan’s overwhelming victory.
But Kai had a very refreshing look on his face.
At that sight, Geomseong applauded.
“Please give a round of applause to the two teachers who showed great sparring.”
Waaaaah-!
The teachers thought it was a very high-level match, so they gave a thunderous round of applause.
Members of the Ramsdale branch also praised the couple, saying it was the most visually pleasing duet they had seen in recent times.
Kai stood up and held out his hand. Ethan took it.
“thank you.”
* * *
“Everyone worked hard.”
The class ended with the words of the blacksmith.
“after.”
“… … It was really hard.”
The first class was difficult, but it was nothing compared to the second class, which was a duel.
Blacksmith really taught the teachers like a tiger.
The swordsman explained in detail how to move depending on the opponent’s movements and the situation.
For teachers with little practical experience, there has never been a class more helpful than this.
Since it was actual advice from the sword master, the teachers showed tremendous concentration and engraved the sword master’s teachings into their heads and bodies.
Because of that, even though everyone was extremely tired, they had proud faces.
I ended up taking a class in the swordsmanship department. All the teachings I learned today will become a great asset to them and will be passed on to the students of each academy.
“Mr. Ethan.”
Of course, among the exhausted teachers, the only one who was sane was Ethan. On the other hand, Kai Felix, who had been sparring with Ethan, was in a particularly messed up state.
“Wow, that was amazing. Is that swordsmanship, the swordsmanship of the Wickus family?”
“Yes, the basic foundation is my family’s swordsmanship, but I modified it a lot.”
“It was incredible how the attacks kept accelerating. Mr. Kai blocked them a few times. Did he control his strength a lot?”
Siron seemed to have noticed a long time ago that Ethan was controlling his strength while fighting Kai.
“Did you get the tea?”
“No, I didn’t notice it. It’s just that I’ve become more discerning since I’ve been around Mr. Ethan. Hahaha.”
Iris, Nadia, and Hardo came closer. Ethan read what they wanted to say in their eyes.
“Now that class is over, let’s eat. This first place reward.”
At Ethan’s words, everyone took out the items they had received from Geomseong.
Keeper Potion.
This Keeper Potion, which greatly increases stamina, was a coveted reward for all teachers.
“Professor Shiron, have you tried it? I heard it’s very effective.”
“Yes, I have tried it before. But I can’t drink a lot, and I’ve only had two bottles so far. Once when I was young, and once when I was an adult. I don’t really remember the one I drank as a child.”
“What was it like when you drank it as an adult?”
“I was able to perfect the swordsmanship that I had not been able to perfect due to lack of physical strength.”
“oh!”
Nadia was amazed.
“This seems especially good for wizards. Teacher Iris had the stamina to make it to the top, but Teacher Haru and I… … .”
Nadia was a typical sorceress.
I had a very hard time climbing the mountain because I was very lacking in stamina. If I hadn’t used magic here and there to help my stamina, I would have fallen halfway up the mountain, let alone reached the top.
Of course, using magic while running was impossible without some level of magical skill.
Likewise, Haru also followed the other teachers with difficulty. However, even in such a situation, he used magic well according to Ethan’s words. It was because he did not want to be a burden.
“Then I’ll drink.”
Haru also had high hopes for this Keeper Potion, just like Nadia.
Gulp gulp.
Ethan was the first to drink the Keeper Potion. In fact, stamina was just as important to Ethan as these other people.
‘The stronger the physical strength, the better.’
As soon as I drank the Keeper Potion, my stomach started to churning.
But it wasn’t a painful or unpleasant bubbling.
I definitely felt some powerful force entering my body.
‘I have to protect it.’
Previously, since I had almost no mana, I had no choice but to give up any energy that entered my body to the Extinction.
But now Ethan has mana.
Ethan wrapped the Keeper Potion in his mana and allowed it to spread throughout his body.
Of course, it wasn’t easy.
‘We cannot completely escape the effects of extinction.’
As expected, the Keeper Potion’s effect was completely consumed by the Extinction. However, it was possible to protect the one that was wrapped in mana.
‘good.’
Ethan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The other teachers also tried to digest the Keeper Potion in their own way.
The teachers from other academies were all envious of that appearance.
In particular, the teachers of the Faculty of Magic could not hide their blatant envy.
The shortcomings that Nadia and Har had were also the shortcomings of the other magicians.
“shit.”
“When I return home, I’ll have to eat something else to make up for my regrets.”
‘The effect is quite good.’
Ethan, who had absorbed the potion’s energy, felt his body become much lighter.
Ethan stretched his body here and there.
‘They say it’s an excellent potion for increasing stamina, so there’s a reason they’re so confident.’
Thanks to his body’s heightened senses due to awakening, Ethan didn’t miss even the slightest change.
“Ugh.”
However, the teachers of the magic department looked puzzled, as if they didn’t know what had improved.
“Should we climb the mountain again? I think you’ll definitely feel it then?”
All three shook their heads at the same time at Shiron’s words.
“Okay, then everyone get off!”
The voice of the blacksmith was heard.
As everyone was getting off, Kai Felix approached Ethan. Ibekah’s teachers naturally gave up their seats.
Shiron, whose eyes met Kai’s for a moment, gave a thumbs up as if he knew everything.
Perhaps Ethan thought he had given Kai some great advice.
Since all the teachers at the fellowship opened their eyes thanks to Ethan, Shiron also fully understood what Kai must have felt.
“Huh, huh? Why me… … .”
When Haru, unaware of the situation, was dragged away by Nadia and Iris, leaving the two alone, Kai nodded.
“Thank you so much.”
“I didn’t do anything big for you. It’s not that difficult to just say a few words.”
Kai shook his head at Ethan’s words.
“These were the words I needed. Thanks to them, I was able to calm my mind and open my eyes. Thank you.”
Kai expressed his gratitude once again.
“What are you going to do now?”
All the burdens he had been carrying were gone.
But practical problems remained.
The Felix family’s succession is unconditionally decided by the eldest son. Even if Kai Felix was stronger than the eldest son, Lohai, it would have no effect on the succession of the family.
“I will live freely. It is much better to live as myself than as Felix’s second son.”
But Kai had already made up his mind.
“I will give up all support from my family and live the way I want.
Kai said that and looked at Ethan.
Ethan could be sure that Kai Felix, free of all his burdens, would become stronger than even Ethan could easily predict.
“Then come to Ibeca.”
“yes?”
“Wasn’t it your family’s will that you went to Freya Academy?”
“you’re right.”
“Then, can’t you decide as you please now? There’s no need to be in Freya.”
Ethan said.
“How about coming to Ibeca?”
It’s not just students who can transfer. Teachers can also transfer to other academies.
Of course, there weren’t many cases where people changed jobs after only one semester.
Kai nodded, having been pondering Ethan’s words.
“That sounds really fun.”
Up until now, I have lived for my family. I have walked in the direction my family wanted me to go.
But now I will do whatever I want.
“I’ll try changing jobs.”
“Welcome, Mr. Kai.”
‘The odds of winning the Academy Exchange Tournament will go up considerably.’
Investing in Kai Felix paid off. Ethan got his dividends right.

Diaker, who was stuck between Kensei’s class and Legia’s class, was quite nervous.
“I never knew the time allocation would end up like this… … .”
I wish we had class in the morning instead.
I heard that Ethan came to Ernest’s class in the morning.
Ernest was as excited as Eucalyptus on the first day, saying that he never thought he would have a teacher like this as his junior, and Ethan cheered that he would surpass them in no time.
“I guess I’ll take sword and magic classes… … but I’m not sure if I’ll take spirit classes.”
The main idea of spirit magic is to make a contract with a spirit and then manipulate the spirit.
However, dealing with spirits is quite difficult and the preparation process is extensive, so it was not expected that even teachers who majored in magic would attend.
Basically, you have to have a contract with the spirit.
Diaker, who went into class so worried, was shocked.
Ethan was in the front row.
But the surprise didn’t end there.
The moment I told them to tell me which spirits they had contracted with or wanted to contract with in order to check the level of the teachers who had come into the class.
“uh?”
Ethan took out a spirit he had never seen before.
“what?”
“That spirit… … What spirit is it?”
“Is this your first time seeing me?”
“I can’t feel any aura.”
Spirits have their own unique auras. If you develop the ability to read those auras, you can quickly figure out what kind of spirit it is.
“Ouch!”
After being summoned, Lucas wandered around and approached the teachers as if to say hello.
“Ear, so cute… … .”
“Can I pet you, Mr. Ethan… … ?”
“It’s melting… … .”
Suddenly, Lucas collapsed on the floor, revealing his belly.
‘You know how cute you are. You are truly an ancient spirit.’
Ethan looked at Lucas with a pleased face.
The teachers’ hearts were simultaneously pounding at the sight of Lucas showing off his cuteness while pretending to be defenseless.
Freya’s teacher, Lute, who had been pretending not to care, also had no choice but to look at her and groan.
“Ah, no, that spirit… … !
Although no one knew the true identity of the spirit, Diaker could tell what kind of spirit Ethan’s spirit was.
I’ve been around spirits my whole life. I’ve never seen one in person, but there’s only one spirit that emits an aura like that.
“Ancient spirit… …!”
With those words, Diacre hurriedly approached Ethan. The teachers began to murmur at Diacre’s voice.
“Ancient spirit?”
“This cute kid?”
“No way. But the ancient spirits have disappeared completely?”
“I think I saw it in a book called Legends That Lost Long Ago.”
Diaker, who had come closer, asked Ethan quietly.
“Where… … the contract… … ?”
“I was lucky.”
Diaker swallowed dryly at Ethan’s answer.
You were lucky? If you could make a contract with an ancient spirit through luck, Diacre would have spent his entire life searching for artifacts related to luck.
“Please let me know later. I want to talk about it in detail.”
It seemed as if Diacre had forgotten that he was even an instructor.
