The flag-raising ceremony started on time and went smoothly.

The emcee was Mayumi, and the team members took the stage one by one under her auspices.

The members introduced would be given collar badges on their uniforms, which contained the ID chips needed to enter the competition venue.

In order to make the ceremony more respectable, the beautiful girl Miyuki was responsible for putting collar badges on everyone.

There were 40 contestants alone (38 excluding Miyuki and Mayumi), so the procedure was quite time-consuming.

But perhaps as a result of her ladylike education, Miyuki kept a sweet smile and put collar badges on everyone skillfully.

The male students who saw Miyuki's smile at such a close distance that they could feel her breathing were almost blushing, and they tried their best to tighten their expressions that they could hardly control.

If it were just like this, this scene would seem to have caused criticism from all the female students in the school later.

However, more than half of the female students who received the collar badges blushed or were uneasy, so they did not cause disgust among the audience (especially the seniors), but smiled knowingly.

The collar badges were not only awarded to the contestants, but also to the logistics team.

After the introduction of the operational team, it was finally the turn of the technical team 29. 29

And in this technical team, there was Tatsuya, the protagonist.

Miyuki pushed the cart to the front of them.

There were 40 contestants, 4 operational team members, 8 technical team members, and 50 members on the stage excluding the emcee and assistants. 49 of them had completed the introduction and awarding procedures.

Finally, it was the 50th person, the last one.

——In other words, it was Tatsuya's turn.

Mayumi read out his name.

Tatsuya stepped forward and saluted, and Miyuki pinned the collar badge on Tatsuya's jacket.

At the same time, warm applause broke out.

No need to confirm with eyes.

It was Tatsuya's good friend Leo who encouraged the classmates to applaud.

For Mayumi and Miyuki who led the ceremony, this was an unexpected commotion.

However, just when the first-year students in the first department were about to boo and make a noise——

Mayumi and Miyuki seized the opportunity to take the initiative and applauded at the same time on both sides of the stage.

The applause that broke out immediately after the last member was introduced.

This applause was replaced by the applause of all the contestants, which resounded throughout the lecture hall.

A commotion that could have occurred was resolved by the two of them.

It must be said that the two are still very capable.

After the flag-raising ceremony, the school accelerated its preparations for the Nine Schools Tournament.

The competition items have also been determined, and Yukino and others practiced every day until the last minute before the school closed.

After all, Yukino's strength is not much better than other contestants. If she doesn't work hard now, she may not win later.

Of course, Hayata has not been idle during this period and is also working hard to improveMyself.

But not everyone is as busy as them. Members of the literature club like Mitsuki are more relaxed.

It was the same on this day. She came to school to accompany her best friend Erica.

"Why is Erica working so hard?"

Walking on the way to the teaching building, Mitsuki thought in confusion.

As a best friend, she knew Erica's personality of being hot-tempered.

But now Erica suddenly practiced hard to improve herself, and kept trying to support Hayata and cheer for him. This was a bit strange no matter how you look at it.

In Mitsuki's eyes, Erica likes to intervene in troublesome things, but she will not take the initiative to plan troublesome things.

If it was Mitsuki's good friends, it would be fine. But this time Erica was so enthusiastic that she mobilized other students to cheer for Hayata. It seems that it can't be explained by pure kindness.

"Is Erica really...to Hayata?"

As good friends, although Hayata and Erica did not make their relationship public at school, Mitsuki still noticed it.

But for some reason, Mitsuki refused to define Erica's feelings in clear words in her mind.

It has been less than five minutes since she arrived at the entrance of the school building.

Now she said that waiting was too tiring and the time was too short.

However, such a time is enough to make her thoughts no longer linger.

Mitsuki didn't need to think too much, and all kinds of things emerged in her mind.

This situation can be described as absent-mindedness.

Just like that, she felt a strange fluctuation in her state of unfocused perception and outward release of her feelings.

Mitsuki was troubled for exactly one second.

Then she made up her mind to take off her glasses.

At this moment, a torrent of colors came towards her.

The vision was filled with light of various colors.

Mizuki temporarily endured the stimulation of painful eyes.

For her, taking off her glasses was like suddenly coming out of the dark into the dazzling sunlight of midsummer.

The things she avoided seeing suddenly became visible.

The excessive information gave her a feeling of being unable to control, and the optic nerves and brain that processed the information were overloaded.

However, if it was an ordinary person, the huge amount of information would have made her faint, but for her, it was an "other world" that had been with her since birth.

Even if the human eye stays under the strongest sunlight, it only takes a while to get used to it.

If it is a dark-eyed race that adapts to strong light, it won't take too long to get used to it immediately.

Mizuki only needs to close her eyes and blink two or three times, and her eyes can adapt to the light of thought that is dozens of times brighter than what ordinary magicians see, and the light of spirit particles 917, the color of which is difficult for ordinary magicians to distinguish.

917

Miyuki carefully put her glasses back into the box and stared at the strange fluctuations she had just felt.

She quickly found a light that could penetrate the anti-reflex coating on the lens.

The reflex signal was like breathing, swaying but regular.

Now even the direction of the light source is clearly visible.

As if being lured, Mitsuki walks towards the experimental building that releases the wave.

The closer she gets to the experimental building, the cooler the air around her feels.

It is midsummer, and even as the setting sun gradually approaches the "curve" of the earth that is cut by the ridge of the hill and cannot be called the horizon, it still releases enough heat to make you sweat.

——This is an illusion.

"Something" disguised as air conditioning hides in the midsummer heat.

This "something" seems to order Mitsuki to turn back.

It seems to threaten her not to approach.

The uneasiness of facing the unknown makes Mitsuki afraid.

However, she did not stop.

Reason requires her to turn back, but Mitsuki is a member of the magic field, destined to share the fate of magic. Mitsuki's intuition requires her to use these "eyes" to confirm what is waiting ahead.

The entrance to the experimental building opened quietly, without any friction or laughter.

The lighting panel on the ceiling maintained a brightness that was bright enough to easily read the dense text.

Everything was as usual. .
