As you have already known, I was lacking in my magic aspect compared to my physical one.
Therefore, I needed to focus on that thing.
Which was what I had done in the past months.
Waking up early in the morning, sparring with Lirienne….
Then, after having breakfast, we studied magic with the books I had bought and with the things Lirienne had learned.
Though to her, I only showed my elemental magic.
For the time being, I don't think I will others that I am capable of using all types of magic in this world.
At that point, Lirienne was also struggling because she did know anything about her moon magic, which made us research on our own.
That left us with my own memories from the game and her imagination since, just as I had said before, there were no records of moon magic that could be found.
With that said, thanks to the house having a strong raw mana concentration, I was able to gather a lot of mana on my more than it would have been since I was able to use and sense even raw attributed mana.
For Lirienne, that wouldn't normally work, though she was able to sense the raw mana in the night, probably thanks to her senses amplifying with the moon being wide open.
Though the increase was not that huge, it was still a help nonetheless.
However, even if learning the 1-star and 2-star spells were one thing, then mastering them practically was something another.
Normally, for a talented mage of an X attribute, the estimated time to master the magic of 1-star to perfection without a chant would be around one year of practice.
I am not saying learning it since learning would be pretty easy with only memorizing the chant and controlling the mana properly. (It is not, though….)
I am talking about mastering it since, around that time, the magician would be able to drop the chants and would be able to control the magic and how it would move in a better way.
Anyway, that was the thing I was trying to do.
Focusing on my elemental magic because it was the most accessible one and also the one I was going to show to the world while entering the academy.
Though I won't show, I am able to use all elemental magic on them.
Because it would also make me a target.
Though there are a lot of legacies and other things in this world that would make a person able to use another attribute, most of the time, a person would have only one.
Having dual attributes is a pretty rare thing.
Anyway, to increase my mastery over the spells and elements I have been using, I was having a lot of practice in an institute that was basically a gym for magicians.
'Practice Room renting.'
In any case, with me, Lirienne also visited a lot of times, and she also polished her skills.
And at the end of the day, we would be either doing our own things or would be studying for the academy.
Though I didn't forget the things I had learned before, there were some cases that I had not studied, so learning them was a must.
This was also pretty helpful for Lirienne since even though she was a bit of an airhead, she was capable of handling analytical things…
Or that might have come from her education as a princess she had learned in her childhood.
And lastly, Lirienne and I were also doing quests from time to time which I used as a training practice for her skills.
Since she was a newbie as a dagger user, I thought she would struggle slightly while mastering it, but that was a bit of an underestimation of me.
A future villainess like her was bound to surprise me, I guess.
In the end, she was able to deal with the quests and the dungeons that were spawned around the near side of the capital, which made her strength increase at a fast rate.
That was basically our routine for the past months, and I think that was a pretty fruitful one.
Since we were able to raise our strength enough for the academy standards.
Though Lirienne was weak at the beginning when I met her, thanks to her class being awakened, the shackles that were holding her were broken.
Which made her raise her rank explosively.
There was also the fact that I had used my knowledge in the game to increase both her and my mana absorption rate and the efficiency of our training, which made us achieve higher ranks at a rapid speed.
And here we were.
In the capital city of the world's strongest empire at the time where the entrance exam of the most famous academy was going to be conducted.
******
'Wow, the city really became crowded, huh?'
I thought, looking at the city that was filled with people all around.
The ruckus that was caused by those little doggies was already left behind.
Since I didn't use any type of magic that had my signature, there wasn't any evidence that would be able to use against me. (N1)
'I guess the entrance exam of the world's strongest academy has its own charm.'
Since people from all around the world who had a lot of money would want to enter the academy, the gates were being used at full capacity while the security around the city was also tightened.
/TUCK/
As I was walking, I felt a slight pull on my shirt.
"What?"
Saying that I looked at Lirienne, whose tip of ears was slightly red.
"Did I do good?"
With her eyes looking at me, she said.
There was one thing I forgot to mention.
This girl here has already become addicted to me.
No, to be certain, she became addicted to my approval.
"Yes, you did well."
Which is something I won't refuse.
With my hands on her head, I said while slightly patting her.
"Hehe."
Though it feels a bit weird, it is also not at the same time.
"Let's get ready. Tomorrow is the day of the Entrance Exam."
I said while reaching home.
"Okay."
And just like that, we started getting ready for the entrance exam that would soon follow.
