The time will move forward about three hours after Abel and the others take the entrance exam.

''This year's examiners are quite an interesting bunch of gems, aren't they?

This was inside the staff room of the Earthria Magic Academy.

As usual, the inside of the staff room was filled with the topic of this year's candidates.

''Ah. It's that G3 thing you're talking about, isn't it?''

What's a G3?

Genius Three, which means three geniuses. Everyone is talking about them. There are 'three geniuses' in the outside world this year.

The names of Ted, Eliza and Abel were the most talked about in the staff room.

The three of them had an outstanding presence among the more than two hundred students in total, and they had become the center of attention from the teachers who served as examiners.

''Heh. That's a booming business. I hope this reinforces the level of our students a bit: ......

'Totally. I'd love to be in the top three in the rivalry this year: ......

It was in the past when Earthria Magic Academy was called the 'top magic school in the country'.

As a matter of fact, their recent exchange results against other banks had been on a downward trend, and their former glory had been overshadowed.

'...... what the hell is G3? What a load of crap.

There was one man who spouted venom as if to drain the teachers' conversation.

The man's name was Emerson.

He is a slender teacher with wispy, curly hair and round glasses.

Emerson was known as 'The Eccentric Teacher' for his ability to express his opinions without being influenced by others.

'There's only one true genius, Mr. Abel,'

Emerson said with a look of clarity and conviction.

'When you say Abel, you're an amber-eyed commoner, right? It's true that his witchcraft skills were tremendous, but ......

If it were simply a matter of skill, Eliza-san wouldn't be second to none, would she?

............

After overhearing the teachers' reviews, Emerson let out a sigh with a dumbfounded expression.

If the teachers of the school, who are responsible for training future magicians, are in this state, it's hard to see what's ahead.

Emerson, who was grading Abel's answer sheet right now, shuddered as he noticed the bizarre ability Abel had.

(What a surprise.) I never thought that a single student could solve The Last Theorem of Depornicus perfectly: ......!)

As a matter of fact, Abel's solution to the "Last Theorem of Depornicus" is a very difficult problem that almost none of the existing magicians understand.

The reason why the problem was adopted by the students is that Emerson was playing a trick on them.

Naturally, Emerson did not anticipate that there would be any correct answers to his questions. 

(No.) This is not perfect. It's a more than perfect solution: ......!)

When I checked carefully, I found that Abel's solution was not just a mere copy of the existing "Last Theorem of Deportnix".

It was a solution that had been improved in many places compared to the usual Depornicus.

If this fact was made public, it would be a feat worthy of national commendation.

Woo hoo. It looks like they're talking about students this year, too.

""But the headmaster!"

One old man steps into the staff room, which is suddenly becoming noisy.

The man's name is Mikhail.

He was the head of this school and a wielder who had once been renowned as the best magician in the kingdom when he was young.

It's not just that he's an excellent magician, but he has the 'bloodline of a brave man', and as a symbol of the school, Mikhail has a strong influence both at home and abroad.

''It's not like he's great! He is!

'Hoho. To have the brilliant Mr. Emerson say that much: ....... It looks like a student of great talent is here to take the test.

Emerson was one of the most talented magicians in the Earthlyria Magic Academy.

Even though he was still young, he had mastered several patents in the field of developing magic tools, and he was highly respected by the surrounding teachers.

''Yes. He's an amber-eyed magician named Abel. I'm sure he'll be the best magician to carry this country in the future. I'll guarantee you that!

Buh-uh-uh?

Hearing Emerson's words, Headmaster Mikhail couldn't help but spew out the dentures in his mouth.

''But, Headmaster! What's going on?!

No, I'm sorry. Dr. Emerson, would you mind telling me his name again?

'Yes! Abel. Abel! He's the best genius in the history of the school who scored a perfect score in both written and practical skills!

............

Mikhail had his head in his hands.

Because, among the only people in the staff room, Mikhail was the only one whose name 'Abel' sounded familiar to him.

''Um, could it be that the head of the school was acquainted with Abel-kun?''

'Nope. That's not what I'm talking about. ...... I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Dr. Emerson. Can you tell me more about him?

If you're having a bad dream, please, I hope you'll cool down.

With a bad feeling, Mikhail had to extract as much information about Abel as possible from the teachers.
