Seeing this, Azu placed his hand on his hair.
"An evil cycle release? I advise you not to use it. In my opinion, it's basically berserker mode, right? Your consciousness will be dominated by destructive impulses, your fire abilities will worsen, and..." The huge fiery phantom behind Ifrit punched the nearby wall, and the material around the hole in the wall immediately turned into molten lava and flowed down.
"In terms of destruction, I'm actually better than you. However, if you definitely can't beat me with fire... shouldn't you use a different type of magic, like electricity? Don't you have magic that can break out of this situation? After all, your family ability isn't [Fire], is it?" Ifrit took a puff of his cigarette and asked Azu.
At the same time, the group had already reached the Chairman's office.
"We're here!"
"I see the device! Quickly, inject magic to stop it..." Kamui seemed to spot a figure over there.
"Wait! Is that... Opera!"
"They're actually going to fight the Chairman's SD? Is that for real?"
However, as soon as Opera saw them, he immediately put on the act of an ordinary scientist (a truly ordinary scientist, not a certain blue scientist).
"Oh, wow, I'm so scared, please stop! I'm just a researcher, I won't do anything! Help me!"
It seemed... no problem. The group immediately bypassed Opera and ran towards the device.
"Two devices... four demons inject magic."
"It's so bright! And it requires so much magic!"
"It's so strenuous... and the progress is so slow..."
Seeing this, Kamui said, "I'll help too..." Suddenly, Kamui felt his whole body tingle from an electric shock. He turned his head to look.
"Teacher Momonoki?"
"Too bad, I won't let you destroy the device. You arrived earlier than I expected. Excellent judgment and execution, you're a good team. I should thank you, because I might be devouring so many 'hearts' at once. It's okay~ As long as you surrender obediently, I won't hurt you."
Kamui stood in front of everyone. "I'll handle this here. Everyone, focus on pouring in your magic."
Fini Marianna immediately retorted, "That's too reckless! To protect us, for you to face the Teacher alone is truly..."
"That goes without saying, if it's just me, I'll definitely lose!"
"Huh?"
"I am well aware of my own lack of strength, therefore... everyone should have summoned their familiars, right?" Kamui handed four familiar stickers to the four girls, and soon four familiars appeared.
Shield Shark, Stone Golem, Flash Peacock, Split-Mouth Lion.
Seeing this, Teacher Momonoki said, "First-year students' familiars?"
Kamui's family ability [Translation]: Can translate any language; its essence is actually leadership! It's magic that can break through language barriers and increase the number of allies.
Seeing this, Fini Marianna said, "But... a demon who can control other people's familiars... that's unprecedented... what in the world is going on with this guy!"
"Alright, everyone, while I'm dealing with the Teacher! Go destroy the device!" Kamui said to the group.
"Ah... okay!"
Teacher Momonoki on the other side said, "Quite an interesting tactic, but with such a hastily assembled lineup and army, how far can you really fight? [Lightning Strike]!"
A bolt of lightning shot towards Kamui.
Kamui calmly said to the Stone Golem, "[Earth Shield]!"
Seeing that it had no effect, Momonoki continued to add attacks.
Kamui looked at the Flash Peacock.
"[Sonic Wave]!"
Kamui said, "This isn't a hastily assembled force; this is solid cultivation and its application!"
Kamui recalled the special training at the time.
"Your family ability is [Translation]. The knowledge and cultivation you possess will greatly influence the execution of your ability."
"Hmm... I understand the principle... but why are you putting me in a birdcage!"
"Don't worry, I'll make you the strongest summoner. Using [Translation] to command other people's familiars will become the [Strongest Skill] that only you can use. But first... memorize all of this: the types of magical beasts, their characteristics, their habitats, and so on."
"This... how can I possibly remember all of that!"
"Just remember it as if it were the personal information of a lady you admire," Mr. Hat suggested.
"Piece of cake!" Kamui's firm gaze seemed capable of joining the party.
"Therefore, no matter what attack comes, I will block it."
Seeing this, Teacher Momonoki said, "Hmm, all attacks, you say? Fire, water, wind, curses, mental confusion, illusion disruption, gravity, strikes, luck, rupture—let's try them all."
Morax Momonoki's rank is [7], and her family ability is [Omni-Mastery]. For her, there is no such thing as troublesome magic. Although its power depends on the amount of magic, there is always a way to learn any magic.
"Boss put me here precisely because I can handle various abilities. Kamui, don't you think it's a bit overconfident to try and surpass a Teacher in knowledge? I'll give you one minute. Please do your best."
"Of course I know, but to monopolize a lady's baby cabinet time, this is a gentleman's honor!" Kamui said, unwilling to show weakness.
At the stairs.
"Hmm... impressive, quite resilient. Hmm... I even gave you advice."
Teacher Ifrit sighed.
"Why won't you use your family ability? If you keep this up, you'll definitely lose."
Azu suddenly recalled his past experiences with Iruma.
"Azu, Azu, I still want to see that!"
"No problem." Azu directly conjured a flower of flames.
"Wow! So amazing, even more beautiful than last time!"
"Yes! It's currently being improved under the guidance of Balam!" Azu explained.
"Fire magic seems to hold even more possibilities."
Iruma looked at Azu.
"So Azu's family ability is fire?"
"...No... it's not."
Iruma was surprised to hear this.
"It's not?"
"Hmm... fire is just the magic I'm good at... and... my family ability..."
Seeing Azu's distressed expression, Iruma immediately stopped him.
"I'm sorry, even though I asked the question... it's perfectly fine if you don't say anything!"
"But... but, as your best friend..."
Iruma shook his head.
"It's okay. Even my own older brother has many secrets he hasn't told me. And... you don't have to tell me everything to be best friends! This is what Azu's mother taught me... and I also have secrets I'm hiding from Azu and Clara. So, even with these secrets, I still want to be best friends with everyone!"
"Because of that person's praise! I can only use fire now!"
Teacher Ifrit saw Azu assume an attacking stance.
