1. Mash and the gang were
supposed to defeat forest scorpions
Copy !req
2. for their outdoor class.
Copy !req
3. By the way, they look like this.
Copy !req
4. But Silva from Lang dorm
for some reason came to pick a fight.
Copy !req
5. What will you do, Mash?
Copy !req
6. Oh?
Copy !req
7. What the hell is going on?
Copy !req
8. The difference in magic power is too big.
Copy !req
9. Shroom Head looks like
he ain't gonna be of any help.
Copy !req
10. I gotta think. Think.
Copy !req
11. How can I save that girl?
Copy !req
12. Hey, now, was that it?
Copy !req
13. What a letdown.
Copy !req
14. What'd you say?
Copy !req
15. I said it's a letdown
if you don't do anything.
Copy !req
16. You piece of scum.
Copy !req
17. So now...
Copy !req
18. I'm willing to give you guys one chance.
Copy !req
19. Huh?
Copy !req
20. A chance?
Copy !req
21. Yeah, that's right.
Copy !req
22. Endure five hits from my magic,
and I'll leave that girl alone.
Copy !req
23. Of course, I'll follow the school rules
and bet one silver coin, too.
Copy !req
24. How about it?
Copy !req
25. It's not a bad deal, is it?
Copy !req
26. Hmm? Well?
Copy !req
27. Not up for it?
Copy !req
28. That condition is insane!
Copy !req
29. All right.
Copy !req
30. You got a deal.
Copy !req
31. You can't! If you do,
a serious injury won't be the end of it!
Copy !req
32. I'll be fine. It's only five hits.
Copy !req
33. What you talkin' about? It's not just you.
For that Mushroom Head over there, too.
Copy !req
34. He ain't got nothing to do with this!
Copy !req
35. Oh, yeah? You don't get to decide that.
Copy !req
36. All right.
Copy !req
37. I'll take his hits, too.
Copy !req
38. Can't complain about that, yeah?
Copy !req
39. What a riot!
Copy !req
40. Can you endure ten hits?
Copy !req
41. Spikes...
Copy !req
42. This is a problem I got myself into.
Copy !req
43. I'll get through it somehow.
Copy !req
44. Iron Fist.
Copy !req
45. This might be bad.
Copy !req
46. How's that?
Copy !req
47. You think you can endure ten of these?
Copy !req
48. Iron Fist!
Copy !req
49. I'm not done yet!
Copy !req
50. Three!
Copy !req
51. Four!
Copy !req
52. Five!
Copy !req
53. Six!
Copy !req
54. Seven!
Copy !req
55. Eight!
Copy !req
56. Nine!
Copy !req
57. Actually, there's a certain boy
threatening me.
Copy !req
58. I don't know what I should do.
Copy !req
59. Bet I look like an idiot.
Copy !req
60. Even I get it.
Copy !req
61. It all was too good to be true.
Copy !req
62. But because I'm an idiot...
Copy !req
63. I can't fully doubt anything.
Copy !req
64. Like that girl's tears.
Copy !req
65. I'm surprised you endured it.
Copy !req
66. As a reward, the last one
will be an extra big one!
Copy !req
67. Iron Fist!
Copy !req
68. What a pity.
Copy !req
69. But did you really think
you could endure—
Copy !req
70. Ten hits.
Copy !req
71. You're done.
Copy !req
72. This guy...
Copy !req
73. Hey...
Copy !req
74. that promise...
Copy !req
75. I ke—
Copy !req
76. Hmph.
Copy !req
77. You idiot.
Copy !req
78. Idiot, idiot, idiot!
Copy !req
79. Just how stupid can you really be?
Copy !req
80. Of course you can't stay standing!
Copy !req
81. I got a clean hit on you with my magic!
Copy !req
82. Shroom Head...
Copy !req
83. take that girl, and run.
Copy !req
84. I'll somehow make everything work.
Copy !req
85. Iron Fist.
Copy !req
86. What are you blathering on about?
Copy !req
87. Shroom Head...
Copy !req
88. please, take that girl—
Copy !req
89. What an idiot.
Copy !req
90. I know you're under my charm spell,
Copy !req
91. but I didn't think
you'd be this desperate.
Copy !req
92. Come on, don't say that.
Copy !req
93. This guy is truly an idiot.
Copy !req
94. Basically, he's having a delusion!
Copy !req
95. Does he think he's
the main character or something?
Copy !req
96. That's so cheesy.
Copy !req
97. I hate stuffy guys like you.
Copy !req
98. But, well, seeing you like that
totally cracks me up.
Copy !req
99. Dissed by the girl
you sacrificed yourself to protect!
Copy !req
100. This guy is the sorriest excuse for a man!
Copy !req
101. Huh?
Copy !req
102. You guys have gone far enough.
Copy !req
103. Bring it on.
Copy !req
104. Now it's my turn
to take that ten-hit challenge.
Copy !req
105. Come at me, scumbag.
Copy !req
106. I wonder if Mash is all right.
Copy !req
107. Huh?
Copy !req
108. He's got to be all right. He's Mash.
Copy !req
109. That's right! He even bested
that professor during the entrance exams.
Copy !req
110. There are different types of magic users.
Copy !req
111. White Mages excel
at scholarship and support magic.
Copy !req
112. Red Mages excel at combat.
Copy !req
113. Mash has been facing White Mages so far.
Copy !req
114. But any Red Mage past their first year
is really tough.
Copy !req
115. Double-liners are not uncommon.
Copy !req
116. Among them,
those that equal or surpass Mash...
Copy !req
117. are a dime a dozen.
Copy !req
118. Well, well, well.
Copy !req
119. That's quite a statement.
Copy !req
120. What really pisses me off
are people like you and this guy...
Copy !req
121. hypocrites that are weak, but act tough.
Copy !req
122. Seeing guys like this,
I just wanna completely mess them up,
Copy !req
123. mess up that disgusting pride
and mentality.
Copy !req
124. When they realize they were tricked
and are left helpless,
Copy !req
125. their faces start twisting up.
Copy !req
126. It totally cracks me up!
Copy !req
127. Huh?
Copy !req
128. My clothes are slightly singed
thanks to him.
Copy !req
129. Don't make a fool of me, you scum!
Copy !req
130. You think you can win against me?
Copy !req
131. I earned two gold coins
during my first year!
Copy !req
132. My base power
is way stronger than you guys!
Copy !req
133. And you're in high spirits,
saying you'll kill me?
Copy !req
134. Go ahead and try, you lowlife!
Copy !req
135. Come on! Come on!
Where'd that energy go?
Copy !req
136. Go on and kill me!
Copy !req
137. Triceps Magic...
Copy !req
138. Ballista Knuckle.
Copy !req
139. Triceps Magic, huh?
Copy !req
140. I've never heard that before.
Copy !req
141. Are you serious?
Copy !req
142. Don't make me say it again.
Copy !req
143. Me and you are on...
Copy !req
144. differ—
Copy !req
145. Huh?
Copy !req
146. Wha?
Copy !req
147. I-I earned two coins last year
as a first-year.
Copy !req
148. My magic is top-tier
among the second-years.
Copy !req
149. I have the skill!
Copy !req
150. Crap, crap, crap!
Copy !req
151. I absolutely can't win. Me?
Copy !req
152. No good. I can't stand.
I have no strength in my body.
Copy !req
153. I can't tolerate one more hit!
Copy !req
154. What the hell is this guy?
Copy !req
155. He sat down? Why?
Copy !req
156. That makes two.
Copy !req
157. Huh?
Copy !req
158. You're going to endure ten hits, right?
Copy !req
159. Show me how much better you are.
Copy !req
160. You have eight more to go.
Copy !req
161. Well?
Copy !req
162. Think you can go for the third hit?
Copy !req
163. Damn it, this is bad, really bad.
Copy !req
164. Any more hits ain't good. I'll die!
Copy !req
165. Something...
I have to come up with some plan.
Copy !req
166. Something...
Copy !req
167. Wha...
Copy !req
168. Its forehead stone is star-shaped.
Copy !req
169. Perfect! Forest scorpions worth
more than one silver coin exist!
Copy !req
170. If I can escape while the giant
forest scorpion fights Mushroom Head...
Copy !req
171. I'm busy right now.
Copy !req
172. Sorry.
Copy !req
173. You gotta be kidding me.
Copy !req
174. I earned two gold coins in my first year!
Copy !req
175. I can't let them keep mocking me.
Copy !req
176. Why don't we call it quits?
Copy !req
177. I kinda feel bad for you.
Copy !req
178. Crap, crap.
I didn't even imagine Silva losing.
Copy !req
179. What should I do?
At this rate, I'm gonna be...
Copy !req
180. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
181. He made me do it.
Copy !req
182. I was scared and couldn't disobey.
Copy !req
183. I truly am sorry.
Copy !req
184. I'm such a terrible person, aren't I?
Copy !req
185. It's all right.
Copy !req
186. Hmph.
Copy !req
187. Men are total suckers.
Copy !req
188. Um...
Copy !req
189. I...
Copy !req
190. Oof!
Copy !req
191. treat everyone equally.
Copy !req
192. This guy's got some screws loose.
Copy !req
193. Mash, are you okay?
Copy !req
194. You're all beat up!
Copy !req
195. It's nothing.
Copy !req
196. So you fought that second-year
named Silva after all?
Copy !req
197. Yeah.
Copy !req
198. That's amazing, Mash!
Copy !req
199. You even defeated a star-stone scorpion.
Copy !req
200. That's two silver coins!
Copy !req
201. That's amazing!
Copy !req
202. You went that far just for me.
Copy !req
203. Aren't you going at a good pace
since you started, Mash?
Copy !req
204. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
205. No, thank you.
Copy !req
206. Let's hurry over to the Nurse's Office!
Copy !req
207. What an idiot.
Copy !req
208. That's so cheesy.
Copy !req
209. Um...
Copy !req
210. you look pretty banged up.
Copy !req
211. Are you okay?
Copy !req
212. Argh!
Copy !req
213. Eek!
Copy !req
214. What's wrong with this guy? Freaky!
Copy !req
215. Help me!
Copy !req
216. Shroom Head.
Copy !req
217. Sorry for getting you
caught up in all that.
Copy !req
218. Thanks, man.
Copy !req
219. That's not like you.
Copy !req
220. Yeah? Shut your damn mouth,
or I'll kill you for real!
Copy !req
221. I totally felt embarrassed as I
squeezed those words out of my mouth!
Copy !req
222. Give me a break!
Copy !req
223. I'm not giving a break or anything.
Copy !req
224. I'll kill you!
Copy !req
225. You were targeted, Mash.
Copy !req
226. I overheard something earlier.
Copy !req
227. Lang is hunting for coins,
and they're mainly targeting Adler.
Copy !req
228. That second-year named Silva must have
picked a fight with you because of that.
Copy !req
229. Lang...
Copy !req
230. Lang dorm is made up
of the upper crust and their cronies.
Copy !req
231. They're so-called moralists.
They value birthright above all else.
Copy !req
232. They'll do anything they can
to prevent us nobodies
Copy !req
233. from getting into the Bureau of Magic.
Copy !req
234. Looks like it's starting.
Copy !req
235. The great war for the coins
against Lang's elite, the Magia Lupus!
Copy !req
236. Magia Lupus.
Copy !req
237. I thought of a story idea like that
back when I was about 12.
Copy !req
238. I see.
Copy !req
239. Hmm?
Copy !req
240. One from Pierced Eyebrow
and two from the giant scorpion.
Copy !req
241. With five silvers,
I finally have a gold coin.
Copy !req
242. Whoa.
Copy !req
243. That light makes your face—
Copy !req
244. My eyes!
Copy !req
245. Wait, I didn't know we had separate dorms.
Copy !req
246. Of course we were separated.
Copy !req
247. You know we were sorted
right after entering, right?
Copy !req
248. Oh. Now that you mention it...
Copy !req
249. We will now sort the new students
into their dorms.
Copy !req
250. Touch the unicorn's horn,
and through your magic power,
Copy !req
251. it will read your thoughts and ideas
to select a dorm that suits you.
Copy !req
252. First up, Egalt Vansom.
Copy !req
253. Here.
Copy !req
254. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
255. I sense willingness in you
and wisdom to match.
Copy !req
256. You are most suited for...
Copy !req
257. Orca dorm.
Copy !req
258. All right!
Copy !req
259. - Thank you very much!
- Next, Alben Smith.
Copy !req
260. Here.
Copy !req
261. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
262. Dauntless courage and a pioneering spirit.
Copy !req
263. It's Adler dorm for you.
Copy !req
264. Hmm. You have strong magical power,
radical ideas, and a challenging nature.
Copy !req
265. You belong in Lang dorm.
Copy !req
266. Heh. Centuries have passed
since I was given this role.
Copy !req
267. Not once have I misjudged,
as I can read people's thoughts.
Copy !req
268. - Now, keep them coming!
- Next, Mash Burnedead.
Copy !req
269. 'Kay.
Copy !req
270. Oh, I need to control my power. Sorry.
Copy !req
271. Freaky.
Copy !req
272. Wait, he's only thinking
about cream puffs.
Copy !req
273. What's with this guy?
Copy !req
274. Isn't there anything
other than cream puffs?
Copy !req
275. Seriously, what are you thinking about?
What's with that face?
Copy !req
276. No, this is bad. Several centuries
into dorm selection at our academy,
Copy !req
277. not once have I
been stumped for an answer.
Copy !req
278. Okay, let's try this again.
Copy !req
279. Bliss.
Copy !req
280. A cream puff is a confection
where batter is baked into a hollow shell
Copy !req
281. and custard cream is packed
into the empty space inside.
Copy !req
282. Especially for Choux Au Craquelin,
where gooey cream fills a brittle shell.
Copy !req
283. And if one were to make an analogy
with humans, it's someone
Copy !req
284. - harboring kindness within strength—
- It's suddenly gotten eloquent!
Copy !req
285. Cream puff lovers go to Adler!
Copy !req
286. That... was a leap of logic!
Copy !req
287. 'Kay.
Copy !req
288. Oh, yeah, there was that.
Copy !req
289. So that was...
Copy !req
290. - Mash.
- This guy.
Copy !req
291. I see.
Copy !req
292. Ahem.
Copy !req
293. Lang's elite, the Magia Lupus,
Copy !req
294. are a group
of seven distinguished students.
Copy !req
295. That Pierced Eyebrow
must be one of their lackeys.
Copy !req
296. They've been grabbing up coins
to sway who the Divine Visionary will be.
Copy !req
297. Since you have a coin...
Copy !req
298. keep your distance from Lang,
and stick with dormmates whenever you can.
Copy !req
299. Okay. I will.
Copy !req
300. But Lance's warning was in vain...
Copy !req
301. and Mash found himself lost in school.
Copy !req
302. Where's the next class?
Copy !req
303. Here it is, I think.
Copy !req
304. Should I push or pull to open this door?
Copy !req
305. Hmm.
Copy !req
306. I always get it wrong.
Copy !req
307. Do I push or pull? Hmm...
Copy !req
308. I-I'm sorry!
Copy !req
309. I'm terribly sorry!
Copy !req
310. Look, you said you wanted to join us,
Copy !req
311. and that's why Lord Abel
gave you a chance.
Copy !req
312. Furthermore, you let Adler take a coin.
Copy !req
313. O-Once more! Please give me one more chan—
Copy !req
314. You misunderstand.
Copy !req
315. Huh?
Copy !req
316. I gave a chance?
Copy !req
317. That makes it sound
like I expected something out of him.
Copy !req
318. Oh, man, sorry 'bout that.
Copy !req
319. Humans worthy
of making this world go round...
Copy !req
320. must be chosen individuals.
Copy !req
321. Perfect education.
Overwhelming talent. Noble bloodline.
Copy !req
322. We're collecting coins
to create a world free of impurities.
Copy !req
323. But what about you?
Copy !req
324. You can't even become
a sacrificial pawn for our objective.
Copy !req
325. Pathetic wretch. You have my sympathy.
Copy !req
326. It must be hard to go on living,
knowing that you're worthless.
Copy !req
327. But rest assured.
Copy !req
328. You no longer need to think
about such things.
Copy !req
329. The Divine Visionary should be me.
Copy !req
330. Not some riffraff from Adler.
Copy !req
331. Right...
Copy !req
332. Mother?
Copy !req
333. A world free of impurities.
Copy !req
334. It will be my—
Copy !req
335. Um...
Copy !req
336. I couldn't figure out
whether to push or pull this door open.
Copy !req
337. Sorry.
Copy !req
338. Also, you know
that's a doll you're talking to?
Copy !req
339. Thank you
for bringing that to my attention.
Copy !req
