1. The Easton Magic Academy.
Copy !req
2. A historic and prestigious school
that has produced
Copy !req
3. numerous pillars of the magic realm.
Copy !req
4. Of course, its entrance examination
is notoriously difficult.
Copy !req
5. Not even 3% of the applicants
will be admitted.
Copy !req
6. Only those with superior magical powers
will be able to open the gates of Easton.
Copy !req
7. Only those
with superior magical powers...
Copy !req
8. Let's see,
among this year's applicants are...
Copy !req
9. CLAUDE LUCCI
Copy !req
10. A scion of established nobility, and then
the undersecretary's son from the Bureau of Magic.
Copy !req
11. All the bigwigs of society, so to speak.
Copy !req
12. Maintenance of wands
and reviewing of grimoires.
Copy !req
13. They're devoting themselves to the exam.
Copy !req
14. It's only proper to have ambitious candidates
for a school as prestigious as ours.
Copy !req
15. HMPH CLANG CLANG HMPH
Copy !req
16. HMPH CLANG CLANG HMPH
Copy !req
17. HMPH CLANG CLANG HMPH
Copy !req
18. HMPH CLANG CLANG HMPH
Copy !req
19. WHAT
Copy !req
20. What the...
Copy !req
21. THE
Copy !req
22. Huh? What's going on?
Copy !req
23. We're starting an entrance exam
for a magic school now.
Copy !req
24. Why is someone pumping iron?
Copy !req
25. No, calm down.
Maybe I'm imagining things.
Copy !req
26. This is a magic school.
Slackers like that would never be here.
Copy !req
27. He's doing the invisible chair
while reading a fitness book!
Copy !req
28. BAM
Copy !req
29. Does he even want to pass this exam?
At least read some books about magic!
Copy !req
30. Consumption of protein within 45 minutes
of training is the most basic of fundamentals.
Copy !req
31. And he's talking to himself!
Copy !req
32. And who are those guys behind him?
They're anything but inconspicuous!
Copy !req
33. Are you sure this will work?
Copy !req
34. Mash can't use magic.
Copy !req
35. You don't trust me and my plans?
Copy !req
36. I made his scar
indistinguishable from a real one.
Copy !req
37. I'm sure we'll get a kick outta this.
Copy !req
38. Oh, well.
Copy !req
39. Slackers like that
will fail the exam anyway.
Copy !req
40. NOM NOM
Copy !req
41. I wonder what the exam is like.
Copy !req
42. I have to pass it, no matter
what it turns out to be.
Copy !req
43. Greetings!
Copy !req
44. Welcome to Easton Magic Academy.
Copy !req
45. I am overseeing today's entrance examination.
My name is Claude Lucci.
Copy !req
46. The pleasure's all mine.
Copy !req
47. C-Claude Lucci!
Copy !req
48. This year's seventh
best up-and-coming mage!
Copy !req
49. He's said to have mastered countless
advanced spells despite his youth!
Copy !req
50. How exhilarating.
Copy !req
51. Praise and worship me even more!
Copy !req
52. It must've been hot
coming out of the fire like that.
Copy !req
53. I'm definitely going to flunk him!
Copy !req
54. Now, let's start our first exam.
Copy !req
55. Take your seats.
Copy !req
56. Seats?
Copy !req
57. There are no seats!
Copy !req
58. What?
Copy !req
59. - Desks just appeared!
- Amazing!
Copy !req
60. - Wh-Whoa!
- I've never seen magic like this!
Copy !req
61. No wonder they have
high hopes for this professor!
Copy !req
62. You could've just taken us to a room
that was already set up.
Copy !req
63. I'll kill him.
Copy !req
64. No matter.
Copy !req
65. The acceptance rate
of this exam is three percent.
Copy !req
66. There's no way
slackers like him will pass.
Copy !req
67. You have 30 minutes!
Copy !req
68. Now, begin!
Copy !req
69. The test paper...
Copy !req
70. The questions are squirming around?
Copy !req
71. That's right, I have enchanted
the test papers with my magic.
Copy !req
72. Thus, to pass this exam you need to dispel
the magic and properly line up the questions.
Copy !req
73. He'll never pull this off.
Copy !req
74. Why'd I think
this would work the other day?
Copy !req
75. WRIGGLE WRIGGLE
Copy !req
76. Could you kindly stop moving?
Copy !req
77. WRIGGLE WRIGGLE
Copy !req
78. Kindly... stop moving.
Copy !req
79. What?
Copy !req
80. I finished.
Copy !req
81. That guy from earlier...
Copy !req
82. I'm sure it's just
some random scribbles...
Copy !req
83. It's aligned so perfectly.
Copy !req
84. He's making that boulder float so easily!
Copy !req
85. Whoa! He's running on water!
Copy !req
86. From that point on, Mash...
Copy !req
87. somehow found ways
to pass the tests.
Copy !req
88. How can a slacker like that
still be here?
Copy !req
89. That tasteless brat
who makes a mockery of me...
Copy !req
90. NOM NOM
Copy !req
91. Then I guess I must...
Copy !req
92. This is the next test!
Copy !req
93. Hey, the ground again is...
Copy !req
94. In the next test, you will solve this maze.
Copy !req
95. Of course, this is no ordinary maze.
Copy !req
96. There are various traps set within.
Copy !req
97. You have 30 minutes!
Copy !req
98. Reach the goal by the time limit,
and you pass!
Copy !req
99. Now, begin!
Copy !req
100. So I have to get to the goal area?
Copy !req
101. Sounds pretty easy.
Copy !req
102. Excuse me!
Copy !req
103. Can I tag along with you?
Copy !req
104. LEMON IRVINE
Copy !req
105. Why?
Copy !req
106. Huh? Um...
Copy !req
107. I think it'd be more efficient
if we worked together.
Copy !req
108. Makes sense.
Copy !req
109. Th-Thank you very much!
Copy !req
110. I wonder what kind of traps
will be waiting for us?
Copy !req
111. TP TP TP
Copy !req
112. CLINK
Copy !req
113. FACEPLANT
Copy !req
114. It hurts!
Copy !req
115. IMPS HAVE APPEARED!
Copy !req
116. GATHER GATHER
Copy !req
117. This maze has imps!
Copy !req
118. Please save me!
Copy !req
119. HANDLIKE-SOMETHINGS HAVE APPEARED!
Copy !req
120. Th-This ground is trying to grab us!
Copy !req
121. Don't leave me behind!
Copy !req
122. Please wait.
Copy !req
123. Please don't leave me behind!
Copy !req
124. What was that about efficiency?
Copy !req
125. We have to hurry.
Copy !req
126. Levios Cuffus!
Copy !req
127. What are these?
Copy !req
128. I'm sorry I deceived you
this whole time.
Copy !req
129. There's a certain reason
I have to keep you away from the goal.
Copy !req
130. What reason?
Copy !req
131. I-I don't want to tell you,
that's why it's a certain reason!
Copy !req
132. So I've been deceived?
Copy !req
133. That's useless.
Human strength can't break...
Copy !req
134. I'm sorry...
Copy !req
135. but I have my own certain reason, too.
Copy !req
136. Later.
Copy !req
137. STARE...
Copy !req
138. Th-This is bad!
I have to chase and stop him.
Copy !req
139. Four legs in the morning.
Copy !req
140. Two legs in the afternoon,
and three legs at night.
Copy !req
141. What is this creature?
Copy !req
142. This is totally
one of the dangerous ones.
Copy !req
143. It's only a test.
I'll use my magic and...
Copy !req
144. Answer my riddle.
Copy !req
145. Oh no. My knees gave out.
Copy !req
146. Bad, really bad. This is a riddle?
Copy !req
147. What's the answer?
Copy !req
148. Four legs in the morning,
two at noon, three at night...
Copy !req
149. Oh, this sucks. I'm panicking
and I can't think straight!
Copy !req
150. Time's up. Thou shalt be punished.
Copy !req
151. Help...
Copy !req
152. That's not right.
Copy !req
153. This truly is punishment
for selfishly deceiving others.
Copy !req
154. I'm so terrible.
Copy !req
155. I'm sorry, Mushroom Head.
Copy !req
156. Such a creature...
Copy !req
157. can't possibly exist.
Copy !req
158. Wh-Why did you bother
to come back and save me?
Copy !req
159. Well...
Copy !req
160. If your reason was similar to mine,
I'd kinda feel sorry for you.
Copy !req
161. But it looks like
we won't make it in time from here.
Copy !req
162. How do you think
I came here in an instant?
Copy !req
163. Time is almost up.
Copy !req
164. Multiple traps
and the guardian of the labyrinth...
Copy !req
165. And the student I recruited to stop him.
Copy !req
166. Since I put in this much effort,
I'm sure he...
Copy !req
167. Hey, what's with that loud noise?
Copy !req
168. Sounds like something is breaking!
Copy !req
169. Th-There's no way.
Copy !req
170. These walls are one meter thick
and are impervious to all magic.
Copy !req
171. The walls!
Copy !req
172. H-He trudged straight outta there!
Copy !req
173. Quite a curious young man.
Copy !req
174. Is that allowed?
Can he really do that?
Copy !req
175. There's no way he can!
Copy !req
176. That's cheating!
Copy !req
177. Gimme a break!
Copy !req
178. Go home! Go home! Go home!
Copy !req
179. SLUMP
Copy !req
180. I want to go home.
Copy !req
181. That's absurd.
It's no longer a labyrinth!
Copy !req
182. Indeed.
Copy !req
183. You're supposed to get lost
in a maze before exiting!
Copy !req
184. Good point.
Copy !req
185. What is a maze for you?
Copy !req
186. Philosophy.
Copy !req
187. Go home! Go home! Go home!
Copy !req
188. P-Please stop! It wasn't his fault!
Copy !req
189. Stop it!
Copy !req
190. If you say anything, you'll regret it!
Copy !req
191. I can still reconsider that promise for now.
Copy !req
192. - I was...
- Hey!
Copy !req
193. I was intentionally getting in his way
so he wouldn't reach the goal.
Copy !req
194. Professor Lucci asked me to.
Copy !req
195. He told me he would pass me
if I got in his way.
Copy !req
196. My family is poor, and I desperately
wanted to be accepted for their sake.
Copy !req
197. But he still saved me,
and then said to me,
Copy !req
198. BLUSH
Copy !req
199. "Please marry me"!
Copy !req
200. No, I didn't say that.
Copy !req
201. I mean...
Copy !req
202. If you're injured, I can piggyback you.
Copy !req
203. Huh? Wait, that means...
Copy !req
204. I'm a burden, you know?
Copy !req
205. (EMOTIONAL) BURDEN
Copy !req
206. I don't really mind burdens at all.
Copy !req
207. (PHYSICAL) BURDEN
Copy !req
208. AWWWW
Copy !req
209. Don't be so bashful.
Copy !req
210. FLUSTER FLUSTER
Copy !req
211. I know how you really feel.
Copy !req
212. It was really great. Yeah.
Copy !req
213. No, I totally didn't say that.
Copy !req
214. That's right. What about it?
Copy !req
215. I'm the examiner.
Copy !req
216. What's bad about trying
to fail students I don't like?
Copy !req
217. A cheeky brat and a pauper girl.
Copy !req
218. I reached out thinking even scum can be
useful, but you bit the hand that fed you.
Copy !req
219. Is your stupidity
inherited from your parents?
Copy !req
220. No wonder you have a miserable life.
Copy !req
221. I'm failing you both.
Copy !req
222. If you want to complain,
then challenge the decision.
Copy !req
223. Challenge me,
a Magus Cum Laude Professor!
Copy !req
224. Of course, that's only if you dare!
Copy !req
225. That's going too far, Professor.
Copy !req
226. What?
Copy !req
227. Wow. He broke that wand.
Copy !req
228. That's just the type of kid he is, huh?
Copy !req
229. I kinda feel sorry for him.
Copy !req
230. Shut up! Why would I even—
Copy !req
231. Silence!
Copy !req
232. Headmaster Wahlberg.
Copy !req
233. We will now begin the final interviews.
Copy !req
234. From this point on,
I will take charge of the examination.
Copy !req
235. Headmaster, why are you here?
Copy !req
236. Lucci.
Copy !req
237. See me in my office after this.
Copy !req
238. A-As you wish.
Copy !req
239. Now, let's start with our first applicant.
Copy !req
240. We will now begin the final interview
for Mash Burnedead.
Copy !req
241. Thank you for having me.
Copy !req
242. First, let's hear
why you chose our academy.
Copy !req
243. To live in peace with my family.
Copy !req
244. That's not an answer.
Copy !req
245. What does that mean?
Copy !req
246. It's fine.
Copy !req
247. Next question.
Copy !req
248. Is it true that you saved a girl in the maze test,
although you didn't have time to?
Copy !req
249. I guess so.
Copy !req
250. What made you do so,
even by risking to fail the test?
Copy !req
251. I kinda felt like I would regret it.
Copy !req
252. You seem to be the type
who acts before thinking.
Copy !req
253. You never considered
that the sphinx might be stronger,
Copy !req
254. or that you may not be able
to break the walls?
Copy !req
255. Well, even if I considered,
it still had to be done.
Copy !req
256. Extremely amusing.
Copy !req
257. But you can only say that because
you don't understand the ways of the world yet.
Copy !req
258. Many creatures that are stronger
than you exist in this world.
Copy !req
259. If you were to face something
that overwhelmingly outpowers you,
Copy !req
260. would you still be able
to take the same course of action?
Copy !req
261. Even if you were...
Copy !req
262. facing me?
Copy !req
263. What immense magical power.
Copy !req
264. And this spell!
Copy !req
265. What is this?
Copy !req
266. This is an ancient spell that transfers the soul
of the target's most cherished one into a doll.
Copy !req
267. SLUMP
Copy !req
268. Gramps?
Copy !req
269. What's wrong? Gramps! Hey!
Copy !req
270. Of course, that's not all.
Copy !req
271. If I were to stab a knife
into the soulful doll...
Copy !req
272. that being would never return.
Copy !req
273. Didn't I already tell you?
Copy !req
274. I am immensely more powerful than you.
Copy !req
275. You can't do anything in your current state.
Copy !req
276. And in a situation like this,
what would you...
Copy !req
277. You can't keep something
this huge out forever.
Copy !req
278. This is an endurance contest, right?
Copy !req
279. Power can be used to harm or to help.
Copy !req
280. It all depends
on the wielder of that power.
Copy !req
281. That is the reason why I put emphasis...
Copy !req
282. on protecting the weak,
and regulating the strong.
Copy !req
283. Noblesse Oblige.
One's capacity as a powerful being.
Copy !req
284. And according to my observations,
you are a human who possesses that capacity.
Copy !req
285. My apologies.
Copy !req
286. I was literally testing you.
Copy !req
287. I had no intention of that nature.
Copy !req
288. Don't worry about it.
Copy !req
289. What is it?
Copy !req
290. What you asked earlier, Headmaster.
Copy !req
291. The answer to the question
"If I had to face the Headmaster..."
Copy !req
292. If it comes to that,
I'd knock the stuffing out of you...
Copy !req
293. with my fist.
Copy !req
294. What insolence!
Copy !req
295. Are you insane?
Copy !req
296. Welcome to Easton Magic Academy.
Copy !req
297. Are you okay, old man?
Copy !req
298. Be gentle with me.
Copy !req
299. And so, a lot of things happened.
Copy !req
300. But Mash Burnedead passed the entrance exam
for Easton Magic Academy.
Copy !req
301. Today, we will be learning one of the most
basic of spells, the lock-opening spell.
Copy !req
302. You must imagine opening the lock
as you infuse it with magic energy.
Copy !req
303. Opti Ars.
Copy !req
304. Now, let's actually try it.
Copy !req
305. Professor. I opened it.
Copy !req
306. Why you little, that's not...
That's not it at all, damn it!
Copy !req
307. This is a magic school, you know?
Copy !req
308. A place where you learn magic!
Copy !req
309. Well, I...
Copy !req
310. I'm not good with magic and the like.
Copy !req
311. Why are you even here?
Copy !req
312. Looks like I have a hard path ahead.
Copy !req
313. Why are you sounding like
it's not your business?
Copy !req
314. What kind of nerves do you have?
Copy !req
315. What's with this year's transfers?
Copy !req
316. There's someone who's clearly bad news!
Copy !req
317. God is dead.
Copy !req
318. Where the hell did that come from?
Seriously creepy!
Copy !req
319. I definitely don't want to be around him.
Copy !req
320. Where are you looking at now?
Copy !req
321. Listen! Listen to what others have to say!
Copy !req
322. Since this is a boarding school...
Copy !req
323. I really don't want to be roommates
with people like that.
Copy !req
324. Let's see, my room...
Copy !req
325. Huh, wait...
Copy !req
326. The door...
Copy !req
327. I'm Finn Ames.
Nice to be rooming with you.
Copy !req
328. FINN AMES
Copy !req
329. I'm Mash Burnedead.
Copy !req
330. I don't really know a lot, so I might
cause trouble, but it's nice to room with you.
Copy !req
331. Huh? He's surprisingly normal?
Copy !req
332. And this is Kevin.
Copy !req
333. This one's Mike.
Copy !req
334. This guy names his muscles! Freaky!
And when did he change clothes?
Copy !req
335. Down here are Tom and Kim.
Over here are Yamada, Koji, and Satomi.
Copy !req
336. W-Well, you can ask me
anything you don't know.
Copy !req
337. The dorm pairs up transfers and continuing
students together as roommates.
Copy !req
338. It's customary to help each other out.
Copy !req
339. I see.
Copy !req
340. Be nice for now.
Copy !req
341. Nice, and distant.
Copy !req
342. This is for a peaceful school life.
Copy !req
343. Can I ask you one thing?
Copy !req
344. Sure.
Copy !req
345. How do you get to be
the academy's "Divine Visionary"?
Copy !req
346. Oh, a Divine Visionary?
Copy !req
347. You have to collect gold coins.
Copy !req
348. Tests, coursework, extracurriculars, school life.
We're evaluated on everything.
Copy !req
349. Based on the evaluations, you're given
coins of gold, silver, or bronze.
Copy !req
350. Regardless of coins earned,
Copy !req
351. if you can't keep your grades up
each semester, you'll be expelled.
Copy !req
352. I had a vague feeling,
but this is really brutal.
Copy !req
353. Looks like he'll be expelled real quick.
Copy !req
354. So that's why we're all desperate.
Copy !req
355. Including me, of course.
Copy !req
356. Best of luck to you, too.
Copy !req
357. Finn made sure not to say,
"Let's do our best together."
Copy !req
358. You're a great guy.
Copy !req
359. And Mash was very simple.
Copy !req
360. You want a cream puff?
Copy !req
361. Huh? Where did you pull those out of?
Copy !req
362. I'll take one, though.
Copy !req
363. Will Mash with no magical powers
really be able to become the Divine Visionary?
Copy !req
364. NOM NOM

MASH BURNEDEAD AND THE BALEFUL BULLY
Copy !req
