"Permission to use the practice grounds?"
The day after the exchange with Ruby.
Today, the carriage that I had asked Miria to arrange for to pick us up would be waiting at the main gate after classes.
Accompanying Mariel-chan, who had been advised by Sei about needing to make a request for the use of practice grounds before the upcoming holiday, I caught up with Teacher Neil, who had come for breakfast, and asked him a question.
"Um... yes. We want to use the magic practice grounds ourselves."
"Hmm. I'm pretty sure there weren't any classes scheduled to use the practice grounds in the afternoon after the break... You two don’t have any afternoon classes, right?"
"Yes!"
"Well then, I'll give you the application later. Have you decided who will accompany you?"
"Accompany...?"
"Yeah. We just can't grant permission for the use of the practice grounds to new students. You need a supervisor in case of emergencies like activation of the barrier magic in the practice grounds or magic outbursts."
"Supervisor..."
"Basically, it's either an upperclassman or a graduate student, or if there's a teacher not having a class at that time."
Mariel-chan, who had no idea what Teacher Neil was talking about, looked flustered.
Hmm, a supervisor, huh... Should I ask Oniisama?
If that's not possible, then other upperclassmen... His Highness is out of the question, so let's see... maybe Hector-sama?
No, let's not ask Hector-sama.
Seems like something that would exhaust Mariel-chan too much.
Then, let's see...
"Well, uh, cough. If you want, I could supervise..."
"Oh, weren’t you supposed to have advanced classes in the afternoon, Teacher Neil?”
I refuted Teacher Neil's offer after remembering that he had once invited me to attend his advanced class.
"Eh? Oh, well... I was thinking it might be fine to cancel the class occasionally..."
"... Teacher Neil! Please focus on your work!"
"Y-yes..."
With a disappointed look and slumped shoulders, I convinced Teacher Neil to head back to the faculty building and then prepared to head to the classroom with Mariel-chan.
Knowing Teacher Neil, he probably intended to spend time with the Sacred Beasts in between supervising our training... really, geez.
We waited in the classroom for the lesson to start, when Teacher Neil and Master… Teacher Marlen finally came in.
Teacher Marlen took a piece of paper from Teacher Neil and then came over to us.
"Oh, Miss Cristea and Miss Mariel. About your request for the use of practice grounds, I'll supervise for you.”
"Eh, is that okay?”
"Don't worry. I have some free time during that period. It's just right for me as her former private tutor to check on Miss Cristea's progress."
With a chuckle, Teacher Marlen agreed, and I, theformer student who had been skipping training, was sweating profusely as I thanked him.
From behind, I heard a deep voice that seemed to belong to Ronnie-sama, who hadn't gone through voice change yet, saying, "Supervised by Teacher Marlen? Direct guidance...!?" … It was not just my imagination. Hieh!?
