◆ ◇ ◈ ◇ ◆

The first day of Six Academy Magic Tournament.
Apparently I had to compete in the rookie category.
The other day, the headmaster of the academy spoke directly.

And it from five academies.
Well, I didn't know what to do, but I should do it all at once.

"... Are you the type that can do something, Goshujin-sama?" (Matty)

The contestants would have to greet the headmasters, so I headed to the guest room at the convention venue.

There were five headmasters there, and as I approached, they seemed to notice, and everyone's eye of sights gathered.
Apparently, the headmaster of the black academy had not came yet.

"I came because I was told to say hello." (Arel)

Then I tell them so,

"Let me introduce! This is Arel, the participant from our academy!" (Redra)
"I'm going to introduce you. He's Arel, who is the participant of the Blue Academy." (Bluna)
"Lemme introduce. He's Arel, the contestant our academy chose." (Grinn)
"Umu, I'll introduce you. Arel is the representative of my Academy." (Yelloa)
"I'll introduce him to you. He's the strongest contestant I've chosen, Arel." (Hwite)

Five people said together.

""""""……Eh?""""""

And at the same time, the goofy voices were heared.

"Haa? What are you talking about? He's a student of our institution, you know? His talent that passed the second grade test as soon as he entered the academy." (Redra)

The headmaster of The Red Academy, who first refocused, said frustratedly.

"What are you talking about? He's definitely a student at the Blue Academy. Not only he advanced to the second grade in his first year of enrollment, he was a master of blue magic that even an instructor had already overwhelmed." (Bluna)

The headmaster of The Blue Academy argued so.

"Wa, wait, wait, he's the contestant from the Green Academy. He's a rookie, but one of the best players in the last fifty years, he had winning all three major flight races. And I had promoted him to the second-grade as a special case." (Grinn)

The headmaster of The Green Academy interrupted.

"Wh, what are you talking about? This guy is a genius who has developed a new golem that no one has ever thought of? Next year, we will promote him to the top grade and will give him a laboratory." (Yelloa)

The headmaster of The Yellow Academy also claimed.

"Wh, what do you mean...? At my academy, he jumped to the second-grade and now is known as master of white magic that even can surpassing the lecturers....?" (Hwite)

Who was saying puzzledly was the headmaster of The White Academy.

"Oioioi! Hey! What's that? It said he had enrolled in five academies and had achieved unprecedented achievements in all of them. It, it's ridiculous! there's no such a thing!" (Redra)

The headmaster of Red Academy snorted and walked out, but all of that wasn't wrong.

"No, all of that is right, you know?" (Arel)

And, I denied his idea. and that time

*Zugooooooooooooooon!*

A roaring sound came from somewhere, and the ground shook violently.

Looking into the direction of the noise, I could see that the smoke had already risen behind the wall surrounding the stadium.

"What the hell is that?" (Grinn)

The headmaster of The Green Academy flew to the sky using flying magic.
I follow him up too.

Looking down from the sky, I immediately knew what had happened.
One of the academy buildings had collapsed.

That building was under construction for renovation.
However, the construction must had been closed during the festival.

"Uwaaaaaa~?"
"What is that?!"

A scream was raised.
Something crawled out of the rubble.

It was a huge mass of lump.
The total length was three meters, just the visible part.
It may be even bigger, considering that its body still buried in the rubble.

It was an awkward shade of black, purple and dark green, and the mucus covering the surface was shining as it reflected sunlight.

Because it was moving, it was probably an organism.

"...Slime huh?" (Arel)

I spoke of my guess.
The headmaster of the green academy moaned in the next of me.

"Is, is that slime you say? I've heard that there is a slime species called king slime, which is many times the size of regular slime... but that color is..." (Grinn)
"I don't know what it eat, but maybe it's discolored." (Arel)

Slime changed the color depending on what it eat.

But why suddenly appear in such a place?

In front of the huge slime that suddenly appeared, people was running away.
On the other hand, the sorcerers who remember the arm (TLN: maybe on guard??) approaching the slime against the flow,

"Fire Lance!"
"Ice storm!"
"Wind cutter!"

Released an attack magic.

"What?"
"It isn't working?"
"Kuh ..."

The giant slime still calm after receiving that attack magic.
There was no sign of damage.

Slime was known for its high resistance to hits, but its magic resistance could not to underestimated.

"Fumu? But that isn't working, rather ..." (Arel)
"Gyaaaaaa!?"

Before I could finishing my speak of the incongruity, a big scream roared.
The slime stretched out something like a tentacle and caught the closest sorcerer, and dragged himself into its body.

The sorcerer struggled desperately.
Other sorcerers attacked the tentacles to help him, but again, it had no effect at all.

"I, I don't want, Sa, save m――!"

He was taken into the slime as it was.

...... Fumu, apparently it wasn't just a king slime.
