17 [1-17] Learning is inevitable. (2/2)

I was praised when I solved a math problem that was at the level of a junior high school student by Japanese standards, but Choujiro in his previous life on Earth had graduated from a university with a degree in science. It was natural for him to be able to solve a problem of this level, so it was a little painful to see him looking at me with admiration.

You are a magician, aren't you?

Actually, I also teach magic. Unfortunately, Miss Catherine did not have the aptitude for it, so I only taught her the theory, and she has not learned magic yet.

”Oh, I didn't know that.

Surprising fact. It seems that Mr. Mozart was a magician.

Even though his appearance seems to be more suited for music.

In fact, the theory of magic (and its practice for those who have talent) is included in the essential education for nobility. Catherine has no talent for magic, so she doesn't practice it, and she has already completed the theory course, so it's already off her timetable.

”Excuse me, sir, but how good is your magic?

I'm level 2 in basic magic and level 1 in fire elemental magic, according to the common adventurer's classification. No, I'm embarrassed. It's my job to teach the first steps, so I've been sloppy and thought that was enough.

What about you, Iris?

I'm level three in water and wind. How many others?

I'm level three in water and wind.

All spells are assigned a level as a matter of convenience.

The level at which you can use a spell is a barometer of your ability.

Dr. Mozart's practical ability is only ”quite good for an amateur.

If I were to evaluate Iris's ability, I would say that she is already a full-fledged magician at her age, but not much more than that.

Even so, as she grew older, her skills would have improved and she would have made it big. If only Rene hadn't spotted him.

By the way, the person in the middle (Rene) is ”currently on par with the strongest magicians of the human race, and will become even stronger in the future” ....... It is hard to use high level magic, but there is no magic that is too difficult to use. There are only certain genres of magic that are impossible to use, such as sacred magic.

However, Iris (Rene) thinks that you should not be too proud of your ability. Even though the Dullahanization had reduced the magic power, the magic could not penetrate the Turtle Formation of the Knights. I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this.

If you don't mind, I'd like to see some of your magic, Iris-sama.

I don't think so. I'm sure you're not the only one who has a problem with this.

”Oops, you're right. I'm sorry.

Professor Mozart smiles apologetically.

I have a feeling that this conversation is also out of order, but the entire castle is now protected from detection and information gathering magic by a camp set up by the sorcerer in charge. The only thing I had to worry about was low-tech eavesdropping.

--The only thing you should be worried about is low-tech eavesdropping. Well, I'm not sure if I should be worried about that, but you might want to put a ...... emotion detector on it.

It is possible that someone on the inside is still trying to find out what Iris (Rene) is up to and whether she is telling the truth.

Iris (Rene) is gradually expanding the range of her emotional detection as she solves the following problems.

There are no people in places where eavesdropping is possible. The gray emotions of servants passing through the corridors, like tired office workers, flow into the room.

--I don't see anything that looks like that. When I tried to expand the scope of ......

I was just about to do that.

Suddenly, Iris sensed someone's alertness rising nearby.

--What is it?　Who is it?

He hadn't reacted in a particularly worrisome way before, but now it had suddenly turned into a tense alertness. It was like the moment you were walking down the corridor and a director came out from the front.

I wondered if he had met the Count or something, but from his reaction, that was not the case.

He didn't seem to have met anyone or seen anything, but he was heading straight for the study room where Iris (Rene) was.

--I'm not sure if it's because he's trying to get his mind off of coming to me.　It's a strangely negative reaction to come to me. ......

You'll be able to find a lot more information on the web at the moment.

Come in.

Dr. Mozart called out, and a male servant came in.

He was a young man with no distinctive features and a slightly pensive air.

I have brought you the materials for your geometry class.

”Thank you for your time.

He dropped the triangular and semicircular panels he had been carrying onto the table.

It was a ruler for drawing shapes on the blackboard, a common tool in schools.

He bowed respectfully to the teacher and Iris (Rene).

But his emotions are strange, especially when he looks at Iris (Rene). His negative caution flared up even more strongly.

The man walked out of the room, but stopped for a few seconds and then walked away as if to kill his footsteps.

Doctor, who was that?

”You must be Mr. Diaz. He's been assisting me lately. He said he wanted to deepen his knowledge at his age, and he wanted to help me while he learned.

”Oh yeah, .......

--No way. ...... Is that him?

That's weird. Too weird. It's not so bad when someone suddenly wakes up to learning, but it stinks when you combine it with an emotional response.

”Um, sir. I'm sorry, I have to use the bathroom. ......

”Here you go. But be careful. You'll be 'Miss Katherine' when you leave this classroom.
