The Next Day Defensive Magic Joint Class Fourth Class
Sebek: It is our turn soon.
Sebek: Are you ready, humans!?
Classmate A & B: Yeah…
Sebek: Your voice is too small, humans!!
Classmate A: The volume of our voice doesn’t matter… It’s not a problem that can be solved with spirit anyway.
Classmate B: I don’t feel like we can pass this assignment while cooperating with you.
Sebek: You truly lack ambition. With this you wouldn’t be able to win winnable battles.
Sebek: You remember the magic we decided you should use, right?
Classmate A: I will use water, and he will use fire. We’re gonna use the magic we specialize in right? We remember this much.
Classmate A: …But was it really okay to let use choose the magic we use first?
Classmate B: We gotta use 3 different types of magic, so Sebek would have to use a different kind right?
Classmate B: This way you couldn’t choose the magic you specialize at like we did…
Sebek: I do not mind. I practice daily a wide variety of magic!
Sebek: And I understand well that… you cannot overcome the things you are bad at in one night.
Sebek: In order to pass the assignment, you should use your strong points.
Classmate A: I- I see…
Classmate B: You’re still self-important, but you say sensible things…
Sebek: Then… let us move!
~~~
Classmate A: O water, engulf that doll and stop its movements!
Classmate A: Ugh, it’s moving faster than I thought, my magic won’t hit it!
Classmate B: Same here. It won’t even scratch it.
Sebek: That doll, it is faster than I imagined, and its movements are just like a person’s… it’s an interesting training!
Classmate A & B: ….
Sebek: Hey you, what are you standing still for. One more time! Do not stop until you hit the target!
Classmate B: But… we don’t have much time left, isn't it impossible to clear the assignment at this point?
Classmate A: I guess it wasn’t gonna work with such an improvised team…
Sebek: QUIET!! WE DON’T HAVE TIME TO WHINE!!!
Classmate B: Woah?! You startled me…
Classmate A: You’re so loud!
Sebek: Hmph. You were blown away by the wind of cowardice, so I simply cleared it away.
Sebek: No matter if the goal seems impossible, as long as you do not give up a way out will surely appear.
Sebek: To stop trying just because it didn’t go well a few times, how pathetic.
Sebek: Is that what your resolution is worth? You don’t have any pride as students of Night Rave College?
Sebek: What can you do if you cannot even believe in yourself!
Classmate A: Sebek… what a guy…
Sebek: For my dear, dear Young Lord, I just have to pass this assignment…
Sebek: In other words luckily for you you would also be working for Malleus-sama.
Sebek: Feel free to give up or fall down, but do it after your service! For Malleus-sama, that is!
Classmate A: Sebek, what a guy!!
Classmate B: In the end it’s just for you and for Draconia-senpai!!
Sebek: Hm, seems like your spirit is back.
Classmate B: Eh? You’re right… I feel like now that I yelled I feel a bit better.
Classmate A: I can’t let it end with Sebek making a fool of me… I’ll do it! Here!!
Ace: Woah, Sebek’s team suddenly became all spirited. Is that their plan?
Deuce: But they just fire their magic recklessly and don’t hit the doll. What are they planning?
Ace: No idea, are they planning to force it with sheer spirit?
Ace: Well… No matter what magic Sebek uses, just firing it recklessly would lead nowhere.
Sebek: …Alright, the morale of the team is getting higher. It is the most important thing in a battle.
Sebek: We cannot pass this opportunity. We need the winning move here…
Sebek: …Over there!
Sebek: Hey, human! Hit your fire magic at that puddle over there!
Classmate A: A puddle.. From the hit I missed earlier?
Classmate B: I’m slowly getting used to Sebek ordering me around… I should just do it right? Here!!
Ace: Uwah, look at that steam! Everything is white, I can’t see anything…
Sebek: Alright, now is our chance!
Sebek: If you imitate a person so well, then just like a person you cannot move well when your vision is stolen.
Sebek: It was quite an interesting training but…
Sebek: The fact the target was not just any target but person-shaped was actually fortunate for me.
Sebek: If it was a test of pure magical power I might have struggled a bit… but I am confident in my combat abilities against people!
Sebek: For Malleus-sama, I’ll have you die here!
Sebek: TAKE THIS!!!
Ace: Woah, Sebek got a direct hit with his magic… and the doll broke! Don’t tell me he was waiting for a chance this whole time?
Deuce: Isn’t Sebek the first to break the target with one hit? Well done…!
~~~
Sebek: Then, I will now read the review the teacher wrote for our team.
Classmate A & B: Gulp…
Sebek: “...There were some problems with the speed and control of the magic, but the mental strength you showed in the later part was wonderful”
Sebek: “Like the assignment requested, each member of the team used a different type of magic, and you destroyed the target…”
Sebek: “So you pass”
Classmate A & B: Y…Yay!!!
~~~
Sebek: We couldn’t get full marks… me included, we still have place to improve.
Classmate A: We’re happy and yet you’re complaining? You really can’t read the room.
Classmate A: But well… to be honest, your words gave me power. Both in a good way and a bad way.
Classmate A: Thanks,
Classmate B: Right. I think I understand now why you always speak so loudly, Sebek.
Sebek: …I see. You too worked well this time.
Sebek: You showed me your willpower. You did well for humans.
Classmate A: It feels wrong to hear Sebek being so honest…
Sebek: In the first place, if I was alone I would be able to clear this assignment in half the time.
Classmate B: Huh!? We were just talking about how we passed this assignment because we joined strength!
Sebek: Huh? I didn’t say anything about that. You working hard and my strength are two different things.
Sebek: This time I just obeyed the requirements of the assignment. I could’ve done it alone, without relying on humans!
Classmate A: I think I’m starting to regret thanking him…
Classmate B: Sebek! You really should do something about that attitude of yours!

Same Day, After School
Sebek: Young Lord, today I shall be guarding you alone.
Sebek: I will do my absolute best!
Malleus: Right.
Malleus: …Speaking of which, I heard that today you succeeded in your assignment in your joint Defensive Magic class.
Sebek: Eh! H-How do you know about that, Young Lord?
Malleus: I met Lilia and Silver before coming here. They told me about it.
Malleus: You really grew, Sebek.
Sebek: M-Malleus-sama…!
Sebek: …Do not mention it. This is truly nothing.
Sebek: I, Sebek, if it’s for Malleus-sama… I’ll keep devoting myself!
