Chapter Two

Many things happened in the month after the Caldwin estate’s annex was reduced to a sad pile of rubble.

First, Raid informed his mother and the village chief back in his hometown that he was officially engaged to the daughter of House Caldwin and would not be returning home for a while. His mother’s reaction was as follows: “Wow, what a creative prank! You won’t be pulling the rug from under me, but I do want to see how your dad will react when he gets back, so I’ll zip my mouth just for you!” On the other hand, all the chief said was, “If you’re staying in the capital, then send us some souvenirs, will you?” Raid decided he’d just ignore them both for now. They probably wouldn’t mind.

Then, Alicia officially approved their engagement as the family head. In addition to the first three conditions, she also threw in a very encouraging yet oddly spiteful, “Blow them all away as thoroughly as you did our annex.”

As for Galleon, who had gone flying from the shock wave of Raid’s punch...he was safely found, treated with healing magic, and was now back on his feet and had even returned to work. “It seems your father-in-law was barely an obstacle for you!!!” he’d bellowed with a hearty laugh, so Raid assumed that he’d gotten approval from that side too.

All that, along with a few other preparations, kept him busy for a whole month.

“Ohhh. What a huge crowd.”

Today, Raid arrived at the exam grounds in front of the Institute and looked around in wonder.

The Vegalta Royal Institute of Magic was the oldest and biggest magic educational institution on the continent. There were many other magic institutes scattered across the land, but the one here in Vegalta, the birthplace of magic, was known as the most prestigious of all. The latest and most cutting-edge magical technology could be spotted all around the campus, and their library was a treasure trove of knowledge across all magical fields of study. The instructors were even illustrious magicians who were still active in their fields. Getting accepted into such a prestigious institute was a splendid splash of gold onto one’s personal record, and simply being accepted as an entrance examinee served as proof of excellent mana capacity in some places.

Examinees of varying ages and appearances were gathered on the grounds. Some were clearly in their thirties, while others seemed to be the minimum age limit of twelve. The older examinees had likely already studied at another magic institute before knocking upon the gates of this royal institute. Their outfits only added to their diversity, from those who wore unfamiliar ornaments to those clad in what seemed to be the traditional clothing of foreign nations. Even in this world of magic elitism, the Vegalta Royal Institute of Magic proved to be a special and sought out place.

“Now that I think about it... You’re sixteen, aren’t you?”

“Yep,” answered Eluria. “I’ll be turning sixteen this year.”

“Why didn’t you enroll here when you were twelve?”

“Because I was looking for you.
