Weasley returned to the magic tower just in ti to et the Magical Girl Saili, who was about to leave.
"Good morning, teacher."
The Magical Girl, preparing to head to Saint Karno School, greeted Weasley, observing his deanor with bright eyes, noticing he seed more spirited than usual.
"You look good today, teacher. Did you go for morning exercises with the old folks in town? After they discovered you secretly using Wind Magic to gain speed in a long-distance running competition, they should have stopped inviting you for morning exercises."
"Ahem, no. I just ca back from fishing. I encountered a wise master unexpectedly, and I even beca their apprentice."
Weasley coughed awkwardly before stroking his beard and bursting into laughter.
The Magical Girl slightly furrowed her brows.
"Teacher, you’re the top Great Mage of the magic tower. Isn’t it a bit too casual to just take soone as your master so easily?"
"Saili, being a Great Mage doesn’t an being omnipotent. There are still many things to learn. Maintaining a humble attitude allows for further progress."
Seeing this, the Magical Girl couldn’t say much more.
However, old folks, after a certain age, their brains undergo irreversible aging, leading to behavior that seems puzzling to the young.
One of these is the tendency to be easily swayed by small gains, even Great Mages can fall for tricks.
She recalled Weasley once fell into such a trap, watching so event in town with a group of old people and ended up deceived into buying a few bottles of refined magic potions and several useless kitchen knives.
This ti it’s probably sothing similar.
The Magical Girl decided to find so ti to confront this so-called wise master.
If you’re going to deceive the teacher, you should know who the student is. Not everyone can just take advantage of Weasley.
The Magical Girl asked where Weasley t this wise master, found it sowhat familiar, and silently noted it down.
"Alright, I have to go to class, teacher."
Saili prepared to leave.
At this ti, Weasley called out to the Magical Girl.
"Wait, Saili, sothing very important is about to happen."
"What is it?"
"We seven old folks are going to gather together to perform the second Divination Art."
Weasley said slowly.
Saili was taken aback, feeling nervous inside.
"Why so suddenly..."
"It’s been half a year since we last perford the Divination Art. It’s ti to invite the Magic Goddess to shine her light once more, so the world can further understand the reborn Demon King."
Saili swallowed, feeling worried for Shami, and rembered secretly using the Divination Art before, becoming even more anxious.
This Divination Art, would it leave any summoning records? If so, she needs to delete them quickly!
"However, it should be carried out only after the Saint Karno School idol contest concludes."
Weasley looked at Saili with a comforting smile.
"Magical Girl Saili, recently your popularity at the magic tower has returned to first place. If you can win first place in the idol contest, then the position of Saintess is yours without a doubt."
"It’s difficult."
Saili thought of the other girls competing and slightly furrowed her brows.
Weasley was a little surprised as it was his first ti seeing Saili so lacking in confidence.
"You have to believe in yourself, Saili. I’m really looking forward to you becoming the Saintess. After all, that’s how I can casually bring it up when eting the other six old folks, and take pictures of their embarrassed red faces."
Weasley said slowly.
"Do Great Mages engage in such trivial rivalry?"
The Magical Girl forced a wry smile.
"By the way, the selection ti for the Saintess of the magic tower is also after the idol contest. If successful, Saili, you’ll first beco the Saintess of the magic tower and then observe the Divination Art ritual with other Great Mage protégés."
"Although you’re currently rivals with Magical Girls of the sa age, these are present Great Mages’ students. While only one person can be the Saintess, they are likely to inherit the position of a Great Mage in the future, assisting you in leading the magic tower forward."
Weasley spoke slowly, looking forward as if seeing a distant future.
"So, Saili, don’t get too hostile with other Magical Girls. Even if you successfully win the idol contest, don’t mock other Magical Girls. The world is more than just fighting..."
Saili’s face darkened slightly.
No, it is completely impossible to get along.
Based on the previous situation, the competition among this generation of Magical Girls is particularly fierce.
Even if they live in the magic tower in the future, it would only be a superficial colleague relationship.
"Alright, go to school now, Saili."
"Hmm. Goodbye, teacher."
The Magical Girl absent-mindedly bid farewell to Weasley.
——
A white-haired girl slowly climbed out of bed, her silver hair a bit tousled, sitting dazedly on the bed for a while, staring at the place where Shami used to lie, lost in thought.
Sunlight stread in from the uncurtained window, falling onto the bed.
The white-haired girl’s head was foggy, snippets of strange images flashing intermittently in her mind.
When the image appeared of her hugging Shami, hands gripping, mouth open, the white-haired girl’s whole deanor turned pale.
Wait, wait, why is there such an image in my mory...?
