The Female Soldier Has Been Told to Infiltrate the Imperial Magic Academy

Chapter 32: Battle Strategy for a Heroine and the Lunch

Carna: “It’s about to start.”

Folia stood in the middle of the stage nervously. Her opponent was a 1st Year student too. Everyone knew that Folia was not good with magic other than healing. Her friends wondered how she was going to fight this match.

“Folia, ganbare[1]!” Razé gave a cheer for her. Folia turned around and nodded her head.

The referee rang the bell and the match started. Folia immediately activated her magic.

Luca: “Isn’t that healing magic?”

Razé: “How do you know?”

Luca: “You’ll notice if you look closely.”

Everyone was wondering why she activated her healing magic when nobody was injured. Then they saw that when Folia used her healing magic on her opponent, he looked blissful. And then he fell asleep peacefully.

The opponent was knocked out. It was Folia’s victory.

Adis: “I didn’t know you could use healing magic like that. She’s really an interesting girl.”

In the game, Folia was able to use purification magic. Razé felt like she had saw a glimpse of it. Winning without a fight, this was the protagonist’s halo.

Adis: “Hey.”

Razé: “Yes?”

Adis: “The plot enforcement that you said earlier, do you really think it doesn’t exist?”

Razé was surprised when she saw his serious expression. “Yes, I think it doesn’t exist. Just look at that.” Razé turned and pointed at Folia.

Folia was looking around the audience seats, as if searching for someone. Then suddenly, her face turned so bright and she broke into a grin. She had found Zale Ile Moldir. It was easy for her to find him because he stood out prominently among the audiences.

As a ladies’ man, it was easy for Adis to interpret Folia’s expression.

Adis: “… Are you not scared? There’s no guarantee that you won’t die.”

“As I’ve said before, the only thing I’m scared of is being starved to death. Nobody knows when they’d die. There’s no use giving it too much thought,” Razé said while avoiding looking at him.

Adis had a doubtful look on his face. Instead of saying that she had a far-sighted view, he felt that she was being reckless about herself. As someone who was very sensitive about others’ behavior, he could notice it clearly. Talking about protecting others when she herself don’t have anyone to protect her.

At first, he was observing the scholarship student, Razé Granoli because he wanted to join the Knights. After monitoring her for a while, he could feel that she was perilous.

“Well done!” Razé waved her hand at Folia while Adis looked at her and sighed. He thought that Razé would easily win the preliminary rounds in Battle Fiesta. He had even trained hard with his mother, looking forward to another match with her. He had made a miscalculation.

I’m so pissed off… It’s been a while since he last felt like this.

After the forbidden magic incident, the tournament went smoothly without any trouble. The love interests had defeated their seniors and succeeded to advance to the next round. There were some high-ranking officials who came to the tournament to recruit new talents. From their expression, it looked like they couldn’t wait for these excellent 1st Year students to graduate.
