The Harem Teacher at Elreis Sorceress Academy

Book 4: Chapter 4: Boring Class

Today, the class is going on as usual.

Now then, please open page 50 of your respective grimoires. Today we are going to do

It was the same, boring lecture that I have done on and on since I was a child.

Wow, it glowed!

Its trueit is exactly as what my sister said.

After the discussion, the teacher standing in front of the lectern drew a magic circle in the air.

And as usual, the classmates around me were fascinated upon seeing it.

I wondered what magic academy would Elreis be like, but to think it was only this much.

My name is Amelia. Im a scholarship student.

FuuhI wonder when will they make us do something else, like something more practical, maybe?

Ive only been studying on my own during class for a while now.

What our teacher is lecturing now is how to write magic formulas and circles. The most basic ones, to be exact.

But even ordinary mages and wizards dont use this stuff anymore, as it is faster to cast the spells yourself.

But even though I said that, I can write magic circles too.

I taught myself how to do it a few years back.

Why do I have to do the same thing over and over again?

Ive always been able to learn most things in one sitting.

And among the class, my magical abilities are the best. After all, Ive been casting and using magic spells so many times since I was a little girl.

As a daughter of a bookstore owner, I have access to tons of magical spellbooks. That is how I learned.

My father was angry at first, with me twiddling around with our products and such, but when I showed him my magic, he was very happy.

From then on, I studied magic every day with a grimoire in my hand.

Of course, there was no way that any of the kids in our area could keep up with me, so I eventually ended up on my own, but that couldnt be helped.

Eventually, my father suggested that I apply to this school.

We werent really poor, as grimoires and other magic spell books are a bit of a high price. However, even with our higher than average income, were still part of the common folk through and through, so its better to have a scholarship grant than not having one.

I was confident at that time that I would be chosen and that I would receive a high level of education in this academy.

But what was brought to me was this disappointment

Miss BurnessMis Burness?

Nn? Yes? This chapter is translated by neorecormon of stabbing with a syringe translations.

Oops, I guess Ive been swayed too much by my thoughts that I missed my attention to the teacher.

I know exactly what the class lessons are about, but I still need to follow the discussion so I can answer when she asks me what she was teaching.

Because if I dont perform well in class, I might lose my scholarship student status.

Could you please step forward and write the magic circle of ignition that is presented in the grimoire?

Understood. Please leave it to me.

I left my seat and walked to the front of the lectern.

Then, like what the teacher has demonstrated, I wrote the magic circle in the air.

In less than a few minutes, the magic circle was completed, according to the textbook.

And its much faster than when the teacher drew it earlier. As expected of me.

Excellent, as expected of you, Mr. Burness.

The teacher praised me, saying so.

I think anyone can do this much, though.

That may be the case if we consider the difficulty, but you demonstrated it faster and more accurately than the others. As expected of a scholarship student chosen by this school.

Thank you very much.

After saying that, I returned to my seat.

I can hear the cheers around me, but to speak the truth, its a pain in the butt.

I knew it in every way that their reactions are just a front.

As I said before, my family owns a bookstore. Just a bookstore.

Therefore, Im not as rich as the ladies that enrolled here.

I feel like they only came here for the prestige of the school

I muttered in a whisper so as not to be overheard.

In the first place, those well-bred princesses cant get along well with a common girl like me. They look at themselves like some kind of beautiful bird up in a tree while looking at us like were some common farm fowl.

Though the uniforms are a standard, with all sorts of decorations they add to their clothes, even I wont be able to keep up with their fashion, even if we sell all of the assets we currently have.

But I dont really care about that.

In the first place, I became a scholarship student in this school because I want to study magic.

After that, I just listened to the class, answering questions from time to time.

Of course, I had another grimoire at hand to study on my own.

The only thing that exceeded my expectations was the ability to look at so many grimoires.

There are countless books in the library of this school.

Whats more, half of the tens of thousands of books in the library are grimoires.

Of course, compared to my fathers bookstore, it wont even hold a candle to this place.

With these so many books, I dont even need to take any classes

The only thing Im worried about is that I wont be able to read all the grimoires while Im in school, so I have to examine all the spell books that will be useful to me and learn them efficiently before I graduate.

Im sure there will be more useful classes in the upper levels, so I should read as much as possible before then.

Thats it for todays lesson.

As I was having these thoughts, the bell rang to signal the end of todays lesson.

I wonder if they were using magic to make this alarm? As it had never been out of sync, at least ever since I came here.

Next time, lets see if I can make a similar thing.

Just as I was about to leave my seat, I heard voices talking from the seat next to me.

About three people have gathered around and were talking about something.

Hey, did you know that there is a male teacher in charge of the classes on the higher years?

Are you sure? Isnt this place supposed to be forbidden to men?

Eh, but Ive heard about it too. Ive heard hes a very good-looking person.

Apparently, it seems to be some kind of love gossip again.

Certainly, the presence of a man is unusual in this school, where the students, teachers, and all other staff consist of women entirely.

But in the end, its nothing to do with me

Also, I heard that the man was a court wizard before he came here.

I was about to stand up again, but those words stopped me.

While being careful not to get noticed, I cast a spell to enhance my hearing.

The reason I went that far was because I was intrigued by the term court wizard.

Speaking of Court Wizards, this country also has the highest standards even among the continentIs there really such a person in this school?

The conversation between my classmates proceeded as if they were unaware of my doubts.

What is his name? Also, what kind of person is he?

I believe he is Sir Theophil Krause.

Sir Krause, is it? Ahh, now I like to meet this person.

Perhaps we could meet him if we visit the higher years building?

But were noble ladies. It would be too rude if we intrude without permission.

You guys always sink your teeth into it when the topic comes to romance, even though you should be spending your time studying for the exams.

But when you are asked directly, you shy away because its improper for a noble to do those things.

These nobles sure like their appearances. As countermeasure to unauthorized aggregate sites, some parts of this novel have been cut . Only read at stabbing with a syringe dot home dot blog.

Is this also a part of their education as a noble lady? If so, being a noble is more troublesome than I thought.

Also, I have heard of some rumor.

Then, the first one spoke in a whisper and covers her mouth.

I activated the eavesdropping smell I mastered without chanting.

My classmates cant even draw a magic circle yet, but Ive already mastered the materializing a spell without chanting.

After the school is over, I heard that Sir Krause usually goes at the back of the school building.

In other words, if you go there, you can meet him secretly

But if they find us, there will be an uproar.

Theres not many people there. Also, isnt it a bit scary, being alone with a man? Even though its Sir Krause

I see, the back of the school building, huh.

Its true that there are only a few people passing there.

Its a great place to hide and meet secretly.

But what is he doing, going at such a placeoh well.

As far as I could tell, the teachers here are of high quality.

However, they are still too far to be considered excellent.

Even I am confident that I could surpass them if I was given a bit of time.

Its probably because they are centered on those who can cater to noble ladies, aside from the fact that they have to be a woman of a presentable upbringing.

But even though the person is a man, he was still a court wizard, the pinnacle of all mages and wizards in this country. He must definitely be incomparable to these teachers who only know how to teach children how to use magic.

Interesting. If its him, he might be a good opponent to test my skills.

Im going to be the best sorcerer in the country anyway, so I should be able to beat that court wizard while Im here.

I finally decided. Im going to meet this Theophile Krause, and hell be my stepping stone to greatness.

I stood up from my seat and left the classroom with a nonchalant look on my face.
