Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

[Eon's POV: ]

"Seeing you so exhausted early in the morning has become a common thing now, but… why do you both look as if you are going to pass out anytime soon now?"

Quin was worried about us as we walked towards our classroom.

It was hard to notice for others, but as someone that has been with us for the longest in this academy, she could tell from just a glance that we weren't just exhausted today.

"You are fools, and I know you did something crazy… but since you at least look happy, I'll not bug you much.

Just tell me you are fine."

"We are fine."

We were better than fine.

We were happy, for different reasons of course, but we were happy.

"It's fine then. Don't pass out until we reach the class or I will have to carry you all by myself."

She shook her head with a smile as we continued walking and, in the usual place outside the academy castle in the garden, we reached the rest of the gang.

"Hello everyone~!"

"Good morning, good morning. How are you doing?"

"The morning is fine and the roses are blooming. It's a good time to go on a date, don't yo9u think, miss Quin?"

"Shut up, Hide."

"Aik! Hey!"

"Hello Quinny~! Hey Uriel… and Lucifer…? What the hell happened to you two?"

"Hello everyone~."

Lizzy, Carla, and Tia also noticed something strange with us, but before they could question more, ZZzoe caught their attention.

"Oh, hey! Look! The bees are doing something over there~."

She distracted them, and with the little window of opportunity, we greeted everyone else and walked towards the academy castle.

"Hmm? What are those bees doing?"

"Isn't that just simple pollen gathering? What is so supposing about that?"

"Right? We see that every day, Zoe."

They looked back at her with questions, but she was only smiling with a clueless look.

Which was obviously suspicious, so they looked at her with questioning eyes while some who understood what might be wrong, looked around. To find us… but we weren't there anymore.

"Why did you do that?"

Lizzy and Quin managed to catch up with us, but the rest of them were still outside.

Which was a much better outcome than answering all that question or lying to them for no reason.

"We were doing our usual training and we had a breakthrough. Though, to achieve that, we had to work a little harder."

I managed to finish my technique while she passed a test of her mentor and now, she will not have to do the difficult physical training that she hated so much.

She didn't like it even though that thing had become much easier for her after a few days.

She didn't like the way the thing never actually felt easier to her even though she had definitely gotten much stronger with that training. Discover hidden tales at m,v l'e-NovelBin.net

Even her stats had increased a little thanks to that.

'She had figured out that Lady Sapphire used her own unique origin skill to create difficulties for her that would be on the same level as her own progress or strength.'

The reason she never felt any better with that light covering her must have something to do with the nature of that skill but, there wasn't really anything that she could do against it.

The harder she tried, the more difficult it got.

Even when she tried using her origin powers, the skill somehow became even more difficult to deal with.

'Every night she returned tired, I had to look after her and Kristen for all the curses she sang for her dear mentor.'

She did not like her but, she knew for a fact that however fucked up that training method was, it was effective.

She was learning something, and thanks to that training she had, she had also realised many new things about her witchcraft.

Which ultimately meant the training method had some kind of deeper meaning behind it.

She did not hate it after two weeks, and she had even gotten used to it so they started with some more things.

"Haaa… girls, I'm tired. No questions for today, alright?"

She was tired.

"Hmmm?"

But she seemed to be in a good mood.

She was smiling, she looked relieved, she had this special air around her that said she wasn't going to be bothered by anything today.

There were a bunch of things happening with her over the last few weeks but the worst was the training that she had to go through, which she certainly did not like.

But, after today, she was freed from that torture.

So, she was in a good mood. And there was nothing that was going to pull her out of that good mood.

"Go to your classes. There should be some interesting news waiting for me. All of us today."

"Right. I think they should announce it today."

"Hmm? Announcement? Announcement of what?"

They weren't going to be too surprised since they all knew this was going to come one of these days. But if not today, they should announce it within this week.

But, knowing how the preparations for it had gone well, and the confirmed dates of the grand conference, this was going to be it.

"You'll know. Don't worry too much about this.

It's nothing big anyway."

It certainly was nothing big compared to the the conference that would change many things throughout this world and in this academy./

There might be some things that might be implemented in the academy and on this island as a precaution, but, they certainly were something much more important than the announcements of today.

"Anyway, have a good day~. See you at lunch~."

She dragged me inside the classroom with the same smile present on her face and went to the very back of the classroom.

We greeted the others while climbing up the stairs of the big classroom as well, but there was nothing new in these greetings.

No one else noticed our exhausted looks, those who did notice it, did not say anything about it since it wasn't really that big of a deal.

"Huuu… I want to sleep."

"We can take a nap during the break time."

"That would be good~."

Last few weeks haven't been the best for us so we haven't had much to spend together.

'I had been busy in the mornings with my training, while at night, she was too tired for any fun things.'

We certainly found some personal, fun moments but they weren't nearly enough to fill either of our hearts.

But, the circumstances weren't the best right now.

We had to focus on some things, and to focus on that, we had to put aside a few things… There wasn't much we could do anyway, so abstaining from a few other things wasn't a bad thing given the situation.

But, now that I was done with one technique, the following few days were going to be a little better.

And, if her mentor does not start with something as absurd as that physical training that almost killed heel a few times, she should also have some time…

The dry nights weren't fun, but with the window that had now opened up for us, we should have a little time to relax.

"Settle down everyone."

The homeroom teacher was here, and… there was a unique file in his hand that he did not usually carry around with him.

"Looks like it's today."

"It's for the best. We are almost done with all the courses anyway. And, they have to give the holidays for the preparation which only leaves this week."

It was Monday, and the first day of the week. Which meant if they were going to announce something as important as that, they knew it was better to do it at the start of the week.

"I have an impotent announcement to make, however, we will finish the topic we left yesterday first.

And before that, attendance."

-Tap. Tap.

He tapped on his desk and took out the register for the attendance.

'How do you think the others will react?'

With our heads on the desk, we looked into each other's eyes with a calm look.

'They will be surprised, shocked maybe? Well, whatever the reaction might be, it's going to be loud.'

It was smart of him to leave the announcement for the end since by doing that, not only will the students have constant attention in the class, they will stay focused on the topic that was going on.

Just like always, he might also leave the class right after that announcement so that he doesn't have to deal with the unnecessary commotion that will erupt like the last time.

And, though the teacher after him will have to suffer because of him, he doesn't really care about that.

As teachers, it was their job to answer the questions of the students.

He was no exception to that rule, just that by the basic logic, if his class was finished already, and the question was not about anything taught in the class, he wasn't really obligated to deal with those things.

If he found it annoying, he had the authority to deal with it in his own way.

"Alright…"

The attendance finished, and the class continued.

The other students were curious what kind of announcement was going to be made, and those who weren't interested in the announcement, were most certainly interested in the folder that the teacher had brought with him.

They were curious just what that thing contained, and thanks to this curiosity and interest, their attention was maintained in the class.

And, when he was done with the class and it was finally time, most of their questions were answered by the certain papers he distributed from the folder that he had brought along.

"Your midterms will start from fifteenth and go on till twenty seven.

The personal schedules you have just received have your individual paper assignments.

Copies of the same will soon be updated on the common notice board. And a detailed list of procedures, rules and regulations, as well as warnings will be released on the general announcement board shortly.

If you haven't started preparations, you should start thinking about it.

Your classes will continue for three more weeks, then you will have classes from the headmasters for two to three days, and after that, until the start of the exams, you will have preparation leaves.

The teachers will be available on the campus so you don't have to worry about anything, and since you should be prepared for any kind of questions by that time, You don't have to worry about anything either."

His announcement was a little too shocking for the rest of them.

"Then, have a nice day."

It wasn't a new thing anymore but once again, he was leaving the class speechless… as well as with countless questions that will soon blast out when the next teacher comes.

And ironically, it was once again the same teacher's class that had arrived after him when he announced about the midterms.

"Looks like she's going to have a headache."

"Suits her right… bitch."

She didn't like her but she couldn't hate her either.

Their relationship was just that kind.
