He awoke to the second day of his high school life, and it was quite ordinary.
Even though he had started to attend high school, it didn't an that the earth's rotation cycle would be affected.
He lightly washed his face
since he was going to properly wash it again later
and put on his usual attire.
Then he went downstairs to the dining room and saw that Miyuki had started to make breakfast.
"Morning, Miyuki. You're quite early today."
It was still the break of dawn, and there was no sign of the Spring sun yet.
It was still too early to go to school. The first lesson was at 8am sharp and commuting to school would take roughly 30 minutes, so it would be ideal to leave the house at 7:30am. Preparing breakfast, eating, cleaning up... if we considered the ti needed for all this, there would still be over an hour of extra ti.
"Good morning, Onii-sama... please help yourself."
"Thanks."
She handed him a glass of fresh juice.
After a sincere word of gratitude, he emptied the glass in one breath, then returned it to Miyuki's outstretched hand. Miyuki had a perfect grasp of Tatsuya's breathing pattern.
Just at the exact mont he was about to say "I'm leaving" to his little sister, who was once again facing the kitchen table, Miyuki's hands stopped and she turned around.
"Onii-sama, I was actually planning to go with you today..."
Upon saying that, she lifted a basket full of sandwiches. It seed more accurate to say that she had "finished making breakfast" rather than "started to make breakfast".
"I don't really mind, but... will you be coming in your uniform?"
He asked while eyeing the school uniform under her apron, a stark contrast to the sweatshirt he was wearing.
"I haven't reported to sensei about school enrollnt yet... and also, I can no longer accompany you in your training, Onii-sama." And that was Miyuki's answer.
The reason why she had already changed into her school uniform this early in the morning was to show her high school look to him.
"Understood. Miyuki, it's not like you need to carry out the sa morning training as I do, but Master will probably be happy to see you.
...Though I hope that he doesn't start running amok from being overly happy."
"If that happens, then Onii-sama, please protect ."
The sweet wink from his little sister naturally brought a smile to Tatsuya's face.
In the slightly chilly, refreshing air of the early morning, a young woman was gliding up the hill road on her rollerblades, her long hair and skirt fluttering in the wind.
Without kicking off the ground to propel her, she was zooming up the gentle but long hill road against gravity.
Her speed probably reached 60 kph. Tatsuya was keeping pace beside her.
Though he was jogging, each stride he took went as far as 10 ters. But, he did not look as relaxed as Miyuki did.
"Perhaps, I should slow down a bit?"
"No, then it wouldn't count as training."
Miyuki asked, having spun around, gliding backwards on one foot, to which Tatsuya replied without losing a single breath despite the evident fatigue.
Neither of them had any kind of propelling device installed in their shoes. Needless to say, this speed was an effect of magic.
What Miyuki was using was a magic that decreased the acceleration due to gravity and a magic that would allow her body to follow the slope of the road to move towards her destination.
What Tatsuya was using was a magic that would amplify both acceleration and deceleration forces generated when he kicked off the ground, and a magic that would suppress his upward motion in order to prevent him from jumping too high.
Both of them were using a simple combination of motion and acceleration spells. As a result of their simplicity, not just Miyuki, but even Tatsuya who could only enroll as a Course 2 student, was able to maintain a persistent invocation.
In such a situation, it couldn't be said which magic -- the one employed by Miyuki who was wearing rollerblades, or the one employed by Tatsuya who was running with his own legs -- was of a higher difficulty level.
At one look, with the rollers to reduce the burden of motion, it seed like it was more effortless for Miyuki, but, without using her own feet, it ant that she had to control her motion vector completely with magic.
On the other hand, for Tatsuya, he could determine the direction of his movent with his running legs.
Tatsuya who had to continuously reactivate his spell at every single step, and Miyuki who could not release her control on her spell, even an instant.
The training each of them was imposing on themselves were of completely different natures.
Their destination was about ten minutes away from their house
at the speed they were moving
on top of a slightly elevated hill.
If we were to use a single word to describe it, it would be "Temple".
However, the people who were gathered there did not resemble any "priests
