[00:01] Makoto/N
    My new life in Rotsgard.
[00:04] Makoto/N
    Having finally acquired permission
    to open a new store,
[00:08] Makoto/N
    Misumi Makoto unexpectedly
    becomes a teacher
[00:11] Makoto/N
    and receives his official
    acceptance letter, but...
[00:15] Shiki
    The academy has summoned you
    rather abruptly, hasn't it?
[00:18] Makoto
    Tell me about it.
[00:20] Makoto
    But I don't have to be there
    until this afternoon.
[00:22] Makoto
    We'll be right on time if we go after lunch.

[00:26] Luria
    Kuzunoha-san, welcome.
[00:30] Makoto
    Hello, Luria.
[00:32] Makoto
    We'll be stopping by again today.
[00:34] Luria
    We appreciate your business.
[00:36] Luria
    Shiki-san, would you like
    your regular hot pot?
[00:38] Shiki
    Yes, of course.
[00:40] Makoto
    Maybe I'll get the chicken hot pot today.
[00:43] Luria
    You two are unusual.
[00:45] Luria
    Usually a group of people
    will share a single hot pot.
[00:48] Luria
    I'll show you to your table.
[00:49] Shiki
    I'm so excited.
[00:52] Makoto/Id
    This is our fifth day in
    a row eating at Gotetsu.
[00:55] Makoto/Id
    Shiki has become weirdly
    obsessed with the place.
[00:58] Ilumgand
    Damn it. They're always
    showing up around Luria.
[01:04] Karen
    You're Ilumgand-sama, aren't you?
[01:07] Karen
    Don't worry. I'm a student at the academy.
[01:11] Karen
    There's something I'd like
    to discuss with you.

[02:46] Luria
    Thank you for waiting.
[02:48] Luria
    Here are the hot pots you ordered.
[02:52] Makoto/Id
    Shiki's new obsession: cream hot pot.
[02:57] Shiki
    Nothing beats this sweetness.
[02:59] Makoto/Id
    Meat and vegetables in
    a super-sweet cream...
[03:03] Luria
    Come to think of it, you work
    at the academy, don't you?
[03:08] Makoto
    Yeah. I'm heading there after this.
[03:11] Luria
    In that case, when you get there, my—
[03:12] Employee
    Luria, could you help me over here?
[03:14] Luria
    Oh, no. The place is getting busy.
[03:17] Luria
    Well, take your time.
[03:20] Makoto
    Thanks.
[03:22] Shiki
    Young Master.
[03:24] Shiki
    May I order seconds?
[03:26] Makoto
    Shiki, is there something
    wrong with your blood sugar?

[03:31] Clerk
    Those are all the employee regulations.
[03:34] Clerk
    As long as you don't exchange money on
    academy grounds, there's no problem.
[03:40] Makoto/Id
    So promoting my shop is okay.
[03:43] Clerk
    Currently, the academy employs
    several hundred faculty members.
[03:47] Clerk
    Teachers are paid ten
    silver coins per student.
[03:51] Clerk
    Part-time teachers can lecture
    to up to 30 students at once.
[03:57] Clerk
    Is next week all right
    for your first lecture?
[04:01] Makoto
    Yes.
[04:02] Makoto
    I'm planning to hold a lecture
    for fewer than ten students,
[04:05] Makoto
    and starting next week should be no problem.
[04:07] Clerk
    How unusual.
[04:09] Clerk
    Most teachers try to gather
    as many students as possible.
[04:13] Makoto
    I'd like to teach as carefully as possible.
[04:16] Bright
    Do you have a moment?
[04:19] Bright
    Excuse me. I am Bright, a full-time lecturer.
[04:26] Bright
    I see.
[04:27] Bright
    You plan to teach a class
    focused on practical skills.
[04:31] Makoto
    Yes, with an emphasis on magic.
[04:34] Bright
    I focus on classroom learning,
    but I also teach combat techniques.
[04:39] Bright
    I'll send about ten of my students
    who seem interested your way.
[04:44] Makoto
    Thank you.
[04:46] Bright
    This year is full of especially
    exceptional students.
[04:49] Bright
    Some can even casting floating spells
    and communicate telepathically.
[04:54] Makoto/Id
    Is he including them?
[04:57] Makoto/Id
    Exceptional, huh?
[04:59] Bright
    I hear you possess some
    outstanding abilities.
[05:03] Bright
    I look forward to seeing what you do.
[05:10] Makoto/Id
    So this is the library.
[05:12] Eva
    May I help you?
[05:15] Makoto
    My assistant is off submitting
    a request to use facilities,
[05:19] Makoto
    so I'm here to find materials for my class.
[05:21] Eva
    I see.
[05:22] Eva
    I am the librarian here.
[05:24] Eva
    If there are any books you're
    looking for, then I can help you.
[05:28] Makoto
    In that case, do you have any
    books on magic incantations?
[05:31] Eva
    How rather bland for you, Kuzunoha-sama.
[05:37] Eva
    Incredible. You instantly
    created a magical barrier.
[05:41] Eva
    It's like a magician's trick.
[05:43] Makoto
    Who are you? How do you know my name?
[05:46] Eva
    I'm a librarian. I know the teachers' names.
[05:51] Makoto
    I heard the academy has
    hundreds of teachers.
[05:54] Makoto
    I find it hard to believe you learned
    a new teacher's name right away.
[05:58] Eva
    The truth is, I heard about you
    while eating with an exam proctor.
[06:05] Makoto
    Is that really all?
[06:07] Eva
    Also, Luria of the Gotetsu
    Restaurant is my younger sister.
[06:11] Makoto/Id
    What?
[06:12] Eva
    I heard she has some unusual regulars
    who always order two hot pots.
[06:17] Eva
    She said Shiki-sama likes their cream hot pot.
[06:20] (Flashback) Luria
    In that case, when you get there, my—
[06:22] Makoto/Id
    She must've been trying to
    tell me about her sister.
[06:26] Makoto/Id
    I see. Their faces certainly
    look similar, but...
[06:31] Eva
    Kuzunoha-sama...
[06:33] Eva
    Men's gazes speak louder than their words.
[06:36] Eva
    Do be careful.
[06:38] Makoto
    S-Sorry...
[06:40] Eva
    Oh, were you imagining
    something inappropriate?
[06:44] Makoto/Id
    I put my foot in my mouth!
[06:46] Eva
    I'm joking. My name is Eva.
[06:50] Eva
    I can usually be found at the counter.
[06:52] Eva
    It's nice to meet you.
[06:54] Makoto/Id
    There's probably a lot of
    darkness behind that smile.
[06:57] Makoto/Id
    She kind of seems like Mio.
[07:01] Mio
    Baretta, could you show me that again?

[07:05] Baretta
    A-Again?
[07:07] Mio
    Of course.
[07:08] Mio
    I'm working at this shop
    so I can learn to cook.
[07:14] Baretta
    Since you've paid the owner to study here,
     I suppose I don't have a choice.
[07:19] Baretta
    But promise me you won't swing a
    knife around the kitchen again.
[07:23] Mio
    I only know how to use a knife
    in an eye-catching way.
[07:28] Baretta
    Anyway, here's how you do it.
[07:32] Mio
    So you use the base of the knife
    to remove the eyes of the potato.
[07:35] Mio
    The last time I cut a potato,
    they vanished completely.
[07:40] Baretta
    We'll start with the basics.
[07:46] Mio
    Incredible.
[07:47] Mio
    It's like a sheet of paper.
[07:49] Baretta
    The owner learned this technique in Laurel.
[07:52] Baretta
    It's apparently called rotary cutting.
[07:54] Mio
    Rotary? What does that mean?
[07:57] Baretta
    I'm not sure exactly.
[08:00] Mio
    Rotary cutting seems like it could
    be useful outside of cooking.
[08:04] Baretta
    Useful for what?

[08:09] Daena
    Apparently our next lecturer
    communicates through writing.
[08:11] Mithra
    He's got some kind of assistant, too.
[08:14] Izumo
    That doesn't sound promising for a
    practical lesson on incantations.
[08:17] Abelia
    We have to attend his class
    since Bright-sensei told us to.
[08:22] Jin
    I don't care what he does as
    long as it makes me stronger.
[08:25] Jin
    And as long as he's not incompetent.
[08:27] Girl 1
    Is the teacher a demihuman?
[08:29] Girl 2
    I heard he's hyuman.
[08:31] Girl 3
    If he's ugly, I'm choosing another class.

[08:35] Makoto
    They don't take me seriously.
[08:37] Shiki
    Since your pay is determined by
    the number of students you have,
[08:40] Shiki
    it weakens your position as an instructor.
[08:43] Shiki
    Are you sure you don't want
    me to play the bad cop?
[08:47] Makoto
    If I'm nice to them,
    they'll never take me seriously.
SIGN    Hmph
[08:51] Makoto
    I'm going to be the scariest
    teacher I can be.
[08:57] Abelia
    Excuse me.
[08:58] Abelia
    Is this the right place for
    Kuzunoha-sensei's class?
[09:01] Shiki
    Yes. I'm his assistant, Shiki.
[09:06] Shiki
    We're planning to open a
    shop in town eventually.
[09:09] Shiki
    We hope you'll stop by.
[09:11] Girls
    He's handsome.
[09:12] Girls
    He seems nice.
[09:13] Girls
    Right?
[09:13] Shiki
    And this is...
[09:15] Makoto
    I'm Kuzunoha. I'm a merchant.
[09:18] Makoto
    I ran a caravan in the wasteland.
[09:21] Daena
    He's got a kobold face.
[09:22] Mithra
    How awful.
[09:24] Jin
    This can't be good.
[09:26] Makoto
    I'll be teaching a tough class focused on
    magic. Make sure you pay attention.
[09:31] Jin
    But I specialize in swordplay.
[09:34] Makoto
    You there, how are your abilities
    with each of the elements?
[09:39] Izumo
    I have an aptitude for wind.
[09:41] Makoto
    And the others?
[09:42] Izumo
    The others? I can use a bit of earth and fire.
[09:46] Makoto
    What about you?
[09:47] Abelia
    I can use fire and a bit of wind.
[09:51] Makoto
    Is there anyone here who can use
    multiple elements at the same level?
[09:57] Makoto/Id
    I'll take a page out of Tomoe's book here.
[10:00] Makoto
    I see now what you're capable of.
[10:04] Makoto
    Unfortunately, as things stand,
    you'll never be better than third-rate.
[10:07] All
    What? Third-rate?
[10:09] Abelia
    Aren't you being a bit harsh?
[10:11] Abelia
    We were admitted to the academy
    based on our abilities.
[10:14] Makoto
    I simply spoke the truth.
[10:16] Daena
    Specializing in your best
    element is common practice.
[10:22] Girls
    Yeah.
[10:23] Girls
    That's normal.
[10:25] Girls
    Right?
[10:25] Makoto
    On the battlefield, if your one element
    is beaten, you'll be torn to shreds.
[10:31] Makoto
    At the very least, you must
    master three elements.
[10:36] Abelia
    It's easy to describe how things should be.
[10:39] Jin
    But are you capable of that, sir?
[10:43] Makoto
    Shiki and I will conduct a mock battle.
[10:46] Makoto
    You can judge our power based on that.
[10:55] Daena
    Hey, that staff...
[10:57] Izumo
    It contains so much mana.
[10:58] Abelia
    Of various elements, too.
[11:01] Jin/Id
    In contrast,
[11:03] Jin/Id
    I don't sense any mana from our instructor.
[11:07] Makoto
    Let's begin.
[11:08] Shiki
    Thank you for letting me practice my
    skills against you, Kuzunoha-san.
[11:12] Shiki
    Here I come.
[11:15] Daena
    He's fast. It's already ov—
[11:20] Daena
    It's not over?
[11:21] Jin
    That's a magical barrier.
[11:26] Makoto
    You've gotten faster, Shiki.
[11:29] Makoto
    When we formed our contract,
    you could barely run.
[11:33] Shiki
    Tomoe-dono and Mio-dono trained me.
[11:36] Shiki
    Just the other day,
    I practiced running on water.
[11:39] Makoto
    What are those two making you do?
[11:48] Makoto
    An instant barrier. You're good.
[11:52] Shiki
    I appreciate the compliment.
[12:06] Jin/Id
    You're kidding, right?
[12:07] Jin/Id
    The teacher predicted his movements.
[12:10] Jin/Id
    Is this really a battle between mages?
[12:15] Makoto
    How about this?
[12:20] Makoto
    Damn it. Another counterspell.
[12:23] Makoto
    I'm impressed, Shiki.
[12:25] Mithra
    After using earth, now he's using
    fire and water simultaneously.
[12:28] Izumo
    I can't believe how powerful
    their silent spells are.
[12:32] Shiki
    It's because of my staff.
[12:34] Shiki
    The elder dwarves do good work.
[12:40] Makoto
    There's no point in letting this drag on.
[12:43] Shiki
    Let's end this with the next attack.
[12:45] Shiki
    Heavenly light like sunshine,
    ultimate flames reflecting the sun...
[12:49] Makoto
    Voracious void, with the
    authority of shadows...
[12:52] Daena
    They're speaking incantations
    for the first time.
[12:54] Mithra
    But I thought our teacher couldn't speak.
[12:56] Izumo
    Is that the ancient language?
[12:58] Izumo
    If their spells are that powerful
    without incantations, then with them...
[13:11] Shiki
    I am beaten.
[13:23] Makoto/Id
    Huh? Uh-oh.
[13:25] Makoto/Id
    I might've scared them all off.
[13:28] Makoto
    That's all for today.
[13:30] Makoto
    Whether or not you'll show up
    for the next class is up to you.
[13:33] Makoto
    If you want to become stronger,
    you're welcome to join me.
[13:36] Makoto
    Shiki, I injured one of them.
[13:38] Makoto
    Could you heal the girl with the ponytail?
[13:41] Shiki
    Very well.
[13:44] Shiki/Id
    He didn't let a single attack through.
[13:47] Shiki
    Thank you for coming, everyone.
[13:49] Girls
    Wh-What was that?
[13:51] Girls
    I'm not taking a class with him!
[13:52] Girls
    I'm scared. There's no way.
[13:54] Daena
    That was so awesome!
[13:56] Izumo
    That last incantation wasn't chanted in Common.
[13:59] Izumo
    Was it Noble? No, Graf? Maybe even Weird?
[14:03] Mithra/Id
    That was terrifying.
[14:05] Abelia/Id
    After talking down to him like that,
    I couldn't even avoid the debris.
[14:11] Shiki
    Allow me.
[14:15] Abelia
    An ointment? Eek!
[14:17] Shiki
    Forgive me. That must've been cold.
[14:21] Abelia
    Huh? My wound...
[14:23] Abelia
    That must've been a pretty
    expensive magical medicine.
[14:26] Shiki
    At our shop, it's nothing special.
[14:30] Shiki
    I'm glad it didn't leave a scar.
[14:36] Jin/Id
    What was Bright-sensei thinking
    when he referred us to him?
[14:41] Jin/Id
    I am so...
[14:43] Jin/Id
    grateful!
[14:45] Jin/Id
    For the first time since coming to the academy,
    I might've met someone I can call master!
[14:52] Makoto
    I'm worried about the next lesson.
     What do you think?
[14:55] Shiki
    I believe half will remain.
[14:56] Makoto
    I'm not sure.
[14:58] Makoto
    Anyway, what should I do about it?
[15:00] Makoto
    My face is stuck like this.
[15:02] Shiki
    I think you look nice and fierce.
[15:05] Makoto/Id
    I shouldn't copy Tomoe
    so much in the future.

[15:10] Tomoe
    You were on the battlefield, weren't you?
[15:13] Pegleg
    That's right.
[15:15] Tomoe
    I heard they're calling that lake
    formed by the battle Star Lake.
[15:21] Pegleg
    We're being punished.
[15:25] Pegleg
    He's punishing the hyumans
    for fighting the demons.
[15:31] Tomoe
    You mean the Goddess?
[15:33] Pegleg
    No.
[15:35] Pegleg
    The Goddess always shows love to us hyumans.
[15:39] Pegleg
    So when we stray from the right path,
    who admonishes and punishes us?
[15:47] Pegleg
    That is his responsibility.
[15:50] Pegleg
    The sorcerer dressed in blue and red.
[15:54] Pegleg
    That's why he fired an arrow of punishment
    that destroys everything it touches.
[16:00] Tomoe
    Arrow of punishment?
[16:02] Tomoe
    Forgive me, but I'm going to
    take a look at your memories.
[16:08] Tomoe
    I can't believe changing the scenery
    is his idea of annoying someone.
[16:15] Tomoe
    There's never a dull moment
    with the young master.
[16:20] Tomoe
    Now, what should I tell them?
[16:26] Makoto/Id
    I didn't think five would stick around.
[16:28] Shiki
    I'm taking attendance.
[16:30] Shiki
    Mithra Casper.
[16:32] Mithra
    Here.
[16:33] Makoto/Id
    From Rotsgard. Both parents
    are affiliated with temples.
[16:37] Makoto/Id
    His grades in classroom
    lectures are exceptional.
[16:41] Shiki
    Daena Severus.
[16:43] Daena
    Call me Daena.
[16:44] Daena
    I married into my family name,
    and I'm still not used to it.
[16:48] Makoto/Id
    Despite how he seems, he's married.
[16:50] Makoto/Id
    His wife is currently on maternity
    leave from the academy.
[16:53] Makoto/Id
    He's only my age, too.
[16:55] Shiki
    Abelia Hopleys.
[16:57] Abelia
    Here. You can call me Abelia.
[16:59] Abelia
    It can be a hassle otherwise.
[17:02] Makoto/Id
    If I recall correctly,
    there's another student named Hopleys.
[17:06] Makoto/Id
    He's the son of an aristocratic
    family from Limia.
[17:10] Shiki
    Izumo Kusakabe.
[17:11] Izumo
    Here.
[17:12] Makoto/Id
    An aspiring mage.
[17:14] Makoto/Id
    His name sounds Japanese because
    he's from the Laurel Commonwealth.
[17:18] Shiki
    Jin Rohan.
[17:19] Jin
    Here.
[17:21] Makoto/Id
    An aspiring swordsman and top
    of his class in practical skills.
[17:24] Makoto/Id
    My class is focused on magic.
    Is he sure he wants to be here?
[17:29] Izumo
    Kuzunoha-sensei, normally you
    communicate through writing,
[17:32] Izumo
    but you spoke an incantation
    during our last class.
[17:35] Makoto/Id
    Oh, right. I confused them.
[17:38] Makoto
    Allow me to make a correction.
[17:39] Makoto
    Common is the only language I can't speak.
[17:42] Mithra
    Huh?
[17:43] Daena
    What language was that?
[17:44] Izumo
    That was, "Common is the only
    language I can't speak," right?
[17:50] Makoto
    Right. Due to certain circumstances,
    Common is the only language I can't speak.
[17:54] Daena
    What kind of circumstances?
[17:56] Makoto
    The lesson will now begin.
[17:58] Makoto
    What effect does spending
    mana have on the body?
[18:01] Izumo
    Once a person has spent half their mana,
[18:05] Izumo
    they experience fatigue
    due to mental exhaustion.
[18:07] Abelia
    With only 20% left, they become lethargic.
[18:10] Abelia
    Spending all one's mana may cause vomiting
    and limited or loss of consciousness.
[18:15] Jin
    Exceeding one's limits can result in death.
[18:18] Daena
    That's a beginner lesson.
    Why are you asking us that now?
[18:22] Makoto
    First, I'd like to identify
    your limits in battle.
[18:26] Makoto
    Keep in mind that injury is a possibility.
[18:29] Mithra
    Battle?
[18:30] Daena
    Injury?
[18:31] Makoto
    Don't worry.
[18:33] Makoto
    I've got enough mana and stamina
    recovery medicines to sell.
[18:40] Makoto
    Now, all of you come at me
    with everything you've got.
[18:50] Daena
    I've never used this much magic before.
[18:55] Abelia
    Pierce my enemies, flame lance.
[18:59] Shiki
    Abelia, that's enough.
[19:01] Abelia
    I can keep—
[19:06] Jin/Id
    I can tell the teacher's holding back,
    but each of his attacks is so heavy.
[19:12] Jin
    Huh? Healing magic?
[19:14] Mithra
    Jin, this is the last of my mana.
[19:18] Mithra
    Good luck.
[19:20] Jin
    Don't leave me, Mithra!
[19:22] Makoto/Id
    Oh?
[19:23] Makoto
    Rather than prolonging
    the battle with defense,
[19:25] Makoto
    he's trusting the battle
    to the strongest fighter.
[19:27] Makoto
    A good choice.
[19:28] Jin
    Damn it. At least let me land one hit!
[19:32] Makoto
    Your swings are too wide.
[19:33] Makoto
    Don't charge in recklessly.
[19:39] Daena
    Ow.
[19:40] Mithra
    My willpower isn't recovering.
[19:42] Jin
    I couldn't land a single hit.
[19:45] Abelia
    I barfed in front of Shiki-san.
[19:47] Izumo
    Couldn't we have slowly
    worked up to this point?
[19:52] Makoto
    Even if you know about limits, there's no
    point if you've never experienced them.
[19:56] Makoto
    Oh, right. Turn in a report
    on what you have to work on.
[20:01] All/Id
    He's evil!
[20:06] Ref
    That's match. The winner
    is Ilumgand Hopleys.
[20:09] Student 1
    You've been doing great
    recently, Ilumgand-san.
[20:13] Ilumgand
    Yeah.
[20:15] Karen
    This is a magical medicine being
    developed at the academy.
[20:18] (Flashback) Karen
    It dramatically improves your
    physical and magical abilities.
[20:22] (Flashback) Karen
    Would you like to try it?
[20:35] Ilumgand/Id
    What's he doing here?
[20:38] Ilumgand/Id
    He's not an academy instructor, is he?
[20:46] Makoto
    Those students have more
    potential than I expected.
[20:48] Shiki
    Indeed.
[20:50] Makoto
    This one... Izumo, right?
[20:53] Makoto
    It's clear he's a mage. He was
    using some complex spells.
[20:57] Makoto
    Daena the married boy has a
    quick wit and good judgment.
[21:01] Makoto
    He's probably sharp.
[21:03] Makoto
    Abelia the lone girl uses her
    mana and physical strength well.
[21:08] Makoto
    Mithra the tall sacrificed
    himself to fight as a team.
[21:14] Makoto
    And finally, Jin remained standing until the
    end without expending all his stamina or mana.
[21:20] Makoto
    He was constantly checking on what
    and how the others were doing.
[21:23] Makoto
    He'd make a good leader.
[21:25] Shiki
    I'm impressed. You observed them closely.
[21:28] Makoto
    I'm not cut out to be a teacher,
     but I'll do my best.
[21:33] Makoto/N
    Whatever it is,
[21:34] Makoto/N
    once I choose to do something,
[21:36] Makoto/N
    I will see it through.
[21:39] Bright
    The assassins' guild did a rather sloppy job.
[21:44] Bright
    Not only were you beaten up by a mage,
    but he broke your weapon, too.
[21:48] Black
    Forgive me, but I wasn't
    told I'd be facing someone
[21:51] Black
    capable of shattering a blade made from
    the scales of the greater dragon Mitsurugi.
[21:57] Bright
    I don't want to hear excuses.
[21:59] Bright
    Get rid of that part-time
    teacher immediately.
