“The winner is Ren Arken!” Oxius declared the outcome of the battle.

“Ugh… I lost… Damn, it hurts!” Brandon rubs the part of his body that got some burn scars.

“……..” Oz remains silent.

*Sound of an Applause*

Everyone applauses for the splendid way of Oz’s fighting.

“Does anyone could explain to the others, what does Mr. Ren use at the last moment of the battle?” Oxius asked the spectators.

Everyone is also confused about what just happen at the last moment of the battle. They could only see Oz strikes Brandon’s stomach with his palm while muttering some words.

Even the ice princess is not sure about what Oz just used at the last moment of the battle. But suddenly someone raised a hand.

“Me, headmaster,” A short but cute girl that use an attire befitting a mage raised her short hand. Her mage’s hat covers her emerald green hair.

“Hm? Then Lady Griselda Lockhart, what did you see,” (Oxius)

“When he strikes Brandon with his palm, he used two elementary magics, [Sprout] and [Burn]. But I don’t know what he uses the sprout spell for, but somehow, he successfully make the [Burn] spell remain by using it,” (Griselda)

“””Whoa!”””

Hearing that Oz only use elementary spells made everyone got surprised and amazed.

“As expected of the saintess of wisdom, Griselda Lockhart. Despite Mr. Ren executes his plan in a very short time, you still manage to grasp the spell he used. But, you missed some key points,” (Oxius)

“Mr. Ren’s plan had started since he threw the stones together with some small seeds that he covers with dirt. By summoning a small seed with a simple [Seed] magic, and covering it with dirt, some of it sticks to Mr. Brandon’s shirt,” (Oxius)

“And one of the reasons why Mr. Ren used his palm is to make it easier to transmit his mana to the seeds. And when he used [Sprout] to grow the seed and [Burn] to burn the plant he grows, while he also covers the fire with a mana layer that makes Mr. Ren the only one that could extinguish it,” (Oxius)

“As expected of Ren,” (Albus)

“Yea, his way of thoughts are abnormal,” (Alfred)

“It could be called a brilliant way of fighting, but it could also be called a madman’s way of fight,” (Oxius)

“I’ll take that as a compliment,” Said Oz with a smile.

“So how about it Mr. Brandon? Do you still have an objection about Mr. Ren being enrolled at the magic academy’s special class? For your information, I’m the one who recommends his enrollment in this magic academy, as you could see, he has extraordinary senses of battle and planning, befriend him and learn a lot from him, his knowledge will be useful for all of you,” (Oxius)

Oxius’s words made the students surprised.

“I-I have no objections, headmaster,” (Brandon)

“A recommendation directly from the magic god? That’s absurd!”

“To think that the magic god evaluates him that highly…”

(Shit… That old man… What is he trying to pull?) (Oz)

“Well, this is the end for today, you can use the facility at your will, we’ll gather here again in three days, your rooms have their names already, you could check in on your own,” (Oxius)

Whoosh!

Oxius suddenly got enveloped by flame and disappears from the spot.

(He fled) (Reo)

(That old geezer…) (Oz)

Brandon lost, but he still doesn’t accept it, he keeps on staring daggers on Oz, but Oz act indifferently as if he doesn’t know.

“Let’s check our rooms,” Oz asked Alfred and co.

“Yea, I’m curious what our room will be like,” (Albus)

“Wait, Albus, you’re the headmaster never show you around?” (Alfred)

“Nope, he never,” (Albus)

“Yes, Ren. I’m sleepy,” (Edreale)

“It’s not even noon yet, Edreale…” (Sen)

“Spar me later, Ren,” (Peter)

“Okay, I accept your challenge,” (Oz)

Oz and co went to the dormitory to check on their rooms.

Surprisingly, the dormitory of the girls and boys are mixed together, while Oz and the others got their rooms separated rather far away. There are a lot of vacant rooms. Even though the special class students are few but the dormitory has 10 levels while having 10 rooms on each level.

Oz got a bad luck of having his room at the top of the building, while Alfred and co are on the fifth floor together.

(Why do I get the feeling of being isolated…) (Oz)

(More importantly…) (Oz)

Oz takes out the room’s key that the dormitory staff gives him, while the person that coincidentally gets the room right next to Oz also takes out her room’s key.

(WHY THE HELL DO I GET A ROOM RIGHT NEXT TO THIS ICY PRINCESS!?) (Oz)

(C-calm down master! It’s rare for you to get this worked up!) (Fenrir)

(Is something wrong with her, master?) (Reo)

(I smell trouble! This must be a setting sets by those two old bones!!!!!) (Oz)

The ice princess seems to take some glances on Oz, but Oz pretends he didn’t know and enter his room quickly.

“Whoa! This is rather unexpected,” Oz exclaimed in surprise when he saw his room.

The room is even more luxurious than the pharmacy’s patient room where he used before when he fainted. There is a kitchen, a living room, a bathroom, a balcony, and the bedroom.

(Why the hell does the bed is so huge here, this is king’s sized) (Oz)

Oz observes his room that is very clean as if the room just got cleaned by the staff a moment ago. Oz started to plan the things he wants to put and design at the room while suddenly a sound disturbs him.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

“Coming!” (Oz)

(Alfred? No, he won’t come alone) (Oz)

Oz got a bad feeling when he touched the door’s handle, and when he opened the door, his bad feeling comes true.

“……..” The ice princess silently stares at Oz with her cold eyes.

“….Um, princess? Do you need anything from me?” Asked Oz with a forced smile.

“…….” (Ice Princess)

(DON’T JUST STAND THERE! ANSWER ME!) (Oz)

Oz sighs.

“Princess, do you knock on my door in a whim, and got confused as for what to answer me?” Oz asked the princess.

The princess’s expression finally changed.

“H-how do you know?” The princess asked, slightly flustered.

“M-my guess is true? Seriously, I can’t fathom you… Come inside, it’ll be far better rather than we stand here like idiots,” Oz asked the princess to enter his room as he went to the kitchen to prepare something.

“True, excuse me…” Said the princess as he enters the room.

“Just go to the living room and sit at the couch, princess. I’ll make a tea,” Said Oz as he makes a tea.

As Oz could change anything to a card, Oz changed some foods from Aegir’s house and edible things he found and bought to cards and store it at his spatial deck. Summoning out two teacups and a kettle from his deck, Oz makes the tea while brewing it with magic.

“Here, princess. It warms both the body and the soul,” Oz gives the teacup filled with Oz’s brewed tea.

“Thanks,” The princess gracefully take a sip of the tea.

!!!

“It’s delicious!” Said the princess as her face starts to show more expression.

“Thanks for the compliment,” (Oz)

“What are the ingredients? I like this taste very much, can you tell me what the ingredients are? I’ll pay if you want it,” The princess unexpectedly asked Oz the ingredients so eagerly.

“Relax, princess. I’ll tell you for free. I make it using a normal tea leaf, but I add another ingredient inside of it,” (Oz)

“What is it?” (Ice Princess)

“It’s from the mercury herb,” (Oz)

“A mercury herb? Isn’t that a magical herb? It often used for some alchemy, to think that you use it on a tea,” (Ice Princess)

“I don’t use the herb, but I use the flower that has a relaxing smell on it and possesses some nature mana that softens the flow of mana at the body,” Said Oz. When Oz first saw the herb’s flower, it looks exactly like a jasmine flower.

“I see, that’s new, you might be the first one that used the flower to make a tea. As expected of Grandpa Kyron’s pupil,” The ice princess said with a satisfied smile.

“You see… That pupil term is his own-” (Oz)

*Sound of the door opened*

“Ren! We’re coming in!” Alfred’s voice suddenly appeared after the sound of the door.

“Alfred?” (Oz)

“Yea, we’re thinking of visiting y-” Alfred and co enter the room and went right to the living room, only to be surprised by the scene.

“””T-t-t-t-the ice princess!?”””
