As the three lounged amid the distant chaos, Raid recalled something and perked up. “By the way, what are the two other special-class magicians like?”

Alma hummed and tilted her head. “A sensible weirdo and a peppy little rascal?”

“That’s quite the combination...” Raid deadpanned.

“One thing I can guarantee though is that they’re both powerful. The weirdo, Savad, is especially monstrous. He’s been undefeated since his student days and graduated in one year, the fastest track to become a magician. After that, he participated in the subjugation of the Thundermist Bird, an ultra-sized manabeast that appeared in Legnare’s eastern lands, and practically defeated it single-handedly. With that, he met the criteria for becoming a special-class magician and was promoted within just three years of taking his post.”

Raid hummed, intrigued. “Speaking of, how long did it take you?”

“I became a magician at eighteen, and it took me about five years to be promoted after that. Ultra-sized manabeasts are quite rare, you know; it’s said that they come from the mysterious unexplored continent. So fulfilling that condition to become a special-class magician also calls for the right timing and some luck. But...” Alma furrowed her brow. “Savad’s strength is extraordinary even among us special-classers.”

“Oh, really? He’s that different?”

“Sure is. You see, we special-class magicians also have our strengths and weaknesses. In Savad’s case, he’s better at fighting individual large-sized and ultra-sized beasts rather than a herd of manabeasts... Still, he’s remained undefeated, both against manabeasts and people, despite being a user of Legnarian magic.”

“Mm. That’s impressive for sure.” Eluria nodded in agreement, then turned to Raid to explain. “We’ve talked about this a bit before, right? Legnarian magic, founded on their sorcery, has this thing called an ‘equibinding formula’ that pushes the effects and range of the user’s magic past its limit in exchange for setting a condition that will forcibly dispel it. This means it’s effective against manabeasts but often unsuited against human opponents.”

Alma nodded. “Exactly. Manabeasts can’t aim for their weakness, but magicians can figure out their special condition, so they tend to rack up more losses when fighting human opponents.”

“Human combat is their overall weakness, and that’s why Legnarian magicians take it very seriously. Unlike Vegalta, they continue to study and develop close-quarter combat techniques.”

“Oh? Sounds interesting,” Raid replied with a grin. “Magic has made Vegalta’s close-quarter combat more diverse over time, but if Legnare’s been passing on pure melee techniques for the past millennia, then it seems I’ve got a lot to look forward to from them.”

“Now that I think about it,” Alma said, “you might get along with Savad, Your Excellency. Your fighting styles are kinda similar in that you both look utterly absurd from the outside.”

“So you think I’ll hit it off with the weirdo... Not sure what to make of that.”

“I mean, I called him a weirdo, but personality-wise he’s pretty normal. If anything, he’s one of the more gentle and friendly special-classers. He just...looks like a weirdo, I guess.”

“Ah, I see. And what about the other one?”

“She’s a nasty little rascal—nothing more to it.
