Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1500: Back to school (9)

I wasn't worried as they surrounded me since the teacher was here.

Though I was certainly surprised by how these older students reacted to what I had done.

"How did you do that?"

"Can you teach me how to cast a spell like that?" fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

"What kind of spell was that? I've never seen anything like this before."

It was as if they had completely forgotten about what had happened earlier as the only thing that they seemed to care about was learning about how I had cast those spells just now.

It was almost like how the kids had reacted when they saw what I was capable of.

I couldn't help revealing a faint smile when I saw them like this.

The kids were one thing, but it was different for these older students to be acting this way.

That just went to show how obsessed with magic these students of the magic academy were that this was the only thing that they cared about. They didn't even seem to care that their pride had been injured.

Only before I could answer this question, the kids came over to stand in between me and these students. They completely surrounded me as if they were protecting me, but it wasn't as if they were doing a good job.

They were short enough that the older students could easily reach above their heads to grab at me.

But still, the older students didn't do that.

Even if they were angry with the kids for the way that they acted previously, they knew that they were all part of the same school. It wasn't as if they would actually do anything serious against the kids.

Though from another standpoint, they had been ready to shoot their spells at the kids…

No, it wasn't that they were angry with the kids in the first place.

It was just that they were annoyed that they had to babysit the kids when they would have rather spent that time doing what they wanted to do. Instead of watching over the kids, they would have been happier researching the things that they wanted to research.

Still, it wasn't as if they would actually hurt each other.

In fact, it didn't take long for the kids and the older students to get along with each other.

With the way that they talked to each other, it really seemed like they were old friends that agreed on one thing.

As for the thing that they agreed on…

"Right, so how did you get this kind of pure and dense mana?"

The one thing that they all agreed on was their admiration for me and their curiosity about how I had cast those spells.

The teacher even stepped forward to confirm that this was the case and to show his own curiosity towards me. But since he had his position to think about, he wasn't as free to ask me questions as the students were.

That was why he had only explained the reason behind why my spells were that powerful even though they were only low grade spells.

He was using the students to ask the questions that he couldn't by stoking their curiosity.

A bitter smile appeared on my face when I was faced with their questions like this, but it wasn't as if there was anything that I could actually say.

The method that I used wasn't one that normal people could use and at the same time, I didn't want to tell people since it would mean they would try some harmful things.

It was better for everyone if they didn't know.

Since they couldn't get the answer out of me, the next thing that the older students did was…

"Can you show us a bit more?"

It seemed that they wanted to study me with the way that they were looking at me.

Since I wouldn't tell them, the only thing that they could do was try and find out the reason for themselves. That was what they did as researchers of magic.

Though I really didn't know how I was supposed to feel about being treated as some kind of experiment like this.

There was no telling what they would do if I were to let them do what they wanted.

So I had to draw the line.

I let them watch, but I didn't let them approach.

At the same time, it wasn't as if there was nothing for me to gain from this.

Since they were older students, it meant that they had learned more than the kids.

That meant that I was able to get more information from them about higher grade spells.

But before I could actually cast them…

"Not here. If you really do it here, then there's no telling what will happen. I won't be able to guarantee everyone's safety."

The teacher stopped me before I could actually cast these intermediate grade spells.

He had already seen the power that was in the low grade spells, so he couldn't guarantee that this room would be able to stop it.

Those low grade spells were already as strong as high grade spells.

So if he were to use intermediate grade spells, wouldn't that mean that the power of those spells would be close to forbidden grade spells.

That was definitely not something that a teacher like him would be able to stop.

That wasn't something that anyone would have expected from a student, so they had never designed the school building for something like this.

As such, he really wouldn't be able to do anything if he casted an intermediate grade spell.

I shook my head with a faint smile, but I still listened to the teacher.

Though there was a part of me that really wanted to cast this intermediate spell.

…

When the day was over, we all gathered together.

"How are you this popular?"

That was what they asked me when they saw me again.

All I could do was reveal a bitter smile.
