4 Planning

Hmm, I noticed that his eye gathers mana every time a spell is cast near it. I think it is not affected by vision. His eye must be able to sense mana and copy spells from even behind that eye patch he is wearing.'

Osfor found himself after finishing his teleportation spell near Albion's principal's office. Yet, before he could walk in, he felt the presence of the maid who was standing behind him. Without turning, Osfor asked, "What seems to be the problem Midorikawa-san?"

"… I was wondering where you went this morning accompanied by that boy. I hope that you do not cause any problems like last time, Greetman won't be pleased and I especially won't like a reoccurrence of what happened."

While putting some pressure at the end of her sentence, the air turned heavy but Osfor only giggled responding

"Ke-ke-ke… I wouldn't dare to. This boy is different and I don't want to pick a fight with two Of Alsa's notorious heavenly demons, right, Midorikawa-san."

"Like always, a shrewd man. The principal is waiting for you…"

"He-he, I will be leaving. Have a good morning Midorikawa-san."

Osfor opened the door in front of him and waltzed in, bowing slightly, he saw that the principal was still occupied with paperwork, probably work related to the aftermath of the intrusion but he paid it no mind.

"So what is it that you need Kazehara-san?"

"You came in earlier than I taught you would. Well, I need you to take a look at the remains of Mikado. After he fought with the kids he lost his limbs and they are still in shape for experimentations. I need to know what type of drug that the Organization was developing. The headmaster is pestering me about answers."

"That old man…well, I was going to do that anyway. But I need a permit of leave for a few days."

"Why is that? How about Asura didn't you promise to teach him personally? I went to cumbersome lengths just to put you in charge of that kid. I don't want any trouble from the other teachers it's already enough that he doesn't need to attend classes. But that was a condition if he only scores high enough on his exams, you better be teaching him properly."

"Don't worry about that, he has me as a teacher he-he. Yet…I need to go to the capital. There are some researches I need to do. And I need access to the fifth level of the Grand library archive"

"Huh, that is the highest clearance… Why do you need documents of that caliber?"

"It seems that all information regarding the Eye of the Wise is treated as top secret, and I need information on Contractors. it is troublesome that I have to go all the way there and I will need to pull some serious favors for this, but if my hunch is correct I think it is by far worth it."

"C-Contractor?? Wait, wait, is Asura…No, no I prefer if I don't know, go and do what you want I only don't want you to cause trouble…"

"As you which. as for Asura-kun, I left him some homework and he won't be starving. So I don't want anyone intervening with his training"

"Don't worry about that. All students know that it is forbidden to access the black forest without the company of a teacher. Even if by chance someone manages to get in, they can't reach your cabin… for god sake, putting so many traps and even hiding that place using so many spells. it's as if you were hiding something… or just being extremely paranoid"

"Well every decent scientist is bound to have a secret lab he-he"

"… I don't know about that but just make sure you get back early. The third-year students will be coming back tomorrow from their camp.

Yesterday was the arrival of the second year and we will need to pick team members for the international competition next month. The preliminaries have started yesterday and because Asura scored first in the school test, he will be exempted from the school competition but he will have to participate in the nationals.

I believe that we will have to put him on the backup list. A first-year will have difficulties facing high leveled participants from other schools. We will have to make do with our third year's students… what a problem."

"Ah you don't have to worry about him being a hindrance because the competition is not intended for only mages as a warrior he will have a good advantage-"

"That is not what I meant! I know he has good skills, considering he is a warrior but there are monsters among the participants. He will only be a hindrance if he is only able to fight using his warrior arts…

Most magic users can use high scale AOE spells, he will get blown away in seconds. Assura will only be a hindrance if he only relies on his warrior arts. I need strong enough teammates to cover for him. We have to win this year's tournament we cannot afford another loss…especially I've heard that Astora has a few monsters in their ranks. this year is bound to become hectic"

"You have my word that when I am finished with Asura you will change your mind about him, what is weird is that everyone keeps forgetting that he was the disciple of that man, but if it's about few magic tricks I can teach him, and in one month, I believe he will be able to make an impact on the results of the tournament… I guarantee it!"

"Then if you say so. I hope you keep your word…the chairman will not tolerate another loss especially now that his grandson joined our school. He will need to keep face in front of the other countries... at least his grandson is not elected to join the selection team to represent Alsa due to his low stamina. The chairman didn't mind it. As for the first-year school tournament winner, you probably know but Yuna Korima was the winner she would have scored first in the school test but the first place was Asura's due to his achievements. In term of magical power, she is by far the strongest one in the first and second-year students... I believe only a few in the third year can manage to handle her and even fewer can be able to defeat her."

"So Yuna-chan won the freshmen tournament yesterday, I would have liked if Asura was able to participate but too bad he was hospitalized for days thankfully he can participate nationally that should be fun to watch…I will have to leave now… I am getting a bit excited just thinking about the events to come. Then goodbye"

A magic circle appears under Osfor who slightly bowed before teleporting away.
