Chapter Seven: The Countess Becomes a Teacher and Receives a Surprise Visit from Her Sisters

The next day, I handed the translated book to Char and made my way to the schoolhouse. After the whole debacle with Gourdin, my husband had given me permission to temporarily take over as a substitute teacher. I was assigned to teach the oldest students, while Barre, who was currently staying at the mansion, handled the younger children. I couldn’t help but feel a bit worried about those little ones in his care.

As for Gourdin, he was suspended from teaching and had been locked up somewhere on the estate. According to Fouet, there was very little hope of him agreeing to mend his ways, which saddened me deeply. Surely, there had to be a better way to get through to him—but I’d done what I could.

What a shame.

When I stepped into the schoolhouse, I found the older students sitting stiff as boards.

Why do they look so scared of me?! This came as a huge shock, because I thought we’d bonded during the extracurricular training!

“M-Mother—I mean, professor. What will you be teaching us today? Canon asked, acting as a spokesperson for all three of them.

The title “professor” sent a little thrill through me. “Good question, Canon! Today, I’ll be assessing each of your individual aptitudes.”

“Our individual aptitudes?” Canon repeated, visibly confused.

“Yes. I could teach you all the same thing, but all three of you have different personalities and preferred magic types, so it’d be rather pointless. Wouldn’t it be better to work on something you’re interested in?”

The kids exchanged puzzled glances.

“Mine, I’ll start with you. As for the other two, you’ll study the books I give you in the meantime.”

“Wait, what?! I’m first?!” Mine exclaimed, unable to hide her surprise.

“Yes. You and I both have the same preferred magic attribute, so you’re the easiest to teach.”

I gave Canon and Bombe their assignments, which were two books to study. The first one was a manual I’d quickly put together last night, named The Basics of Remedy Crafting, which outlined how to make various salves and antidotes. The second was a transcript of the book I had translated for Char. Using Light Magic, it hadn’t taken long to create two additional copies.

With Mine, I headed to the training grounds behind the school. Admittedly, “training grounds” was a grand name for it—it was just an overgrown patch of land with a few big rocks scattered around.

“Well then,” I said, carefully observing Mine’s demeanor. “First, let me ask you a few questions. Do you have any idea of the type of spells you’d like to learn? Do you ever think, ‘I wish I could become this or that type of mage’?”

A sour look appeared on her face. “What would be the point in me telling you that? My main attribute is Light Magic, so it’s not like I have a ton of choices. I know I could never be as strong as the other two, but... As long as I can make it out of here alive, that’s fine by me.
