The Former Witch Reincarnated as A Village Girl

"Lika, we have business to attend to, so you have to be alone."

"Clean it up properly. If I stay dirty, I won't forgive you."

In the after-school classroom, Lika told the girls that and was being pushed to clean.

The decided squad was supposed to do it, but the girls pressed Lika for everything, prioritizing their personal feelings. Naturally, there was no way she could say no, and she nodded powerlessly with a strong grip on her chin.

…………

Lika doesn't cry. It's not sad. Instead, I had no choice but to divide it. She slipped through the window and dazzled the sun.

A child who doesn't like magic in a magic school can be abused. It was inevitable in a way, and from an excellent student, it was an obstacle for a child like Liika to be in school. The School of Magic is excellent. Students are provided with a path to the Royal Palace Mage as they go after graduation. Many students study for it every day. Sometimes when there's a mix of falls like Lika in there, I feel really good about it.

Lika knew about it and regretted her apologies and her lack of power. Without crying before, she slowly bites her lips off.

After completing the cleaning, Liika headed to an empty room where she did not leave school. It's usually used there as a storage room, and people rarely stop by. Lika made sure no one had seen her before knocking small and entering the room.

"Hmm, here you are. Let's start today's class."

It was the silver-haired girl Shatia waiting there. He was reading the book as he sat gracefully on the box, and when he noticed that Lika had come, he smiled and closed the book.

"Sorry I'm late, Shatia. The cleaning's prolonged."

"They pushed you again anyway, didn't they? It's good to leave you alone... Lilica has a really popular personality."

Lika apologizes for saying the reason for the delay was cleaning, but Shatia was discerning. He sighs like a jerk and sees Lika with his jitsu eyes. Lika lowered her face in embarrassment and groaned that she was sorry just one last time.

"Well good. Let's get started… today was an application of fire magic."

Shatia jumped off the top of the box when she broke up the conversation, and started the class with Liika in sight.

Lika's secret. That's what Shatia has been teaching me to study magic since last week. The day Shatia joined us, she suddenly declared she was going to teach Lika magic. At first, Lika was confused by various things, but Shatia's teaching was so easy to understand that she showed me magic that she had never seen it before, so now she was able to teach using an empty classroom after school.

"Lika doesn't like magic. I just don't know magic. You wouldn't know how to use it if someone who doesn't know the fire was given firewood and firestone, would you? Same as that."

Shatia taught me clearly and gently even if Lika had no idea about magic at all. He told me in every way that he would show it in action at one time, or that he would write and show it in a painting so that it was easy to understand at one time. Every time Liika felt sorry for herself, but there was more joy than that.

For Lika, Shatia was my first friend. At the same time, he was a teacher and the only one who was kind to me. That's why Lyka worked desperately hard on her magic studies to get Shatia to admit it.

"So why don't we do it in action today? Try fire magic, as I taught you yesterday."

"Wow, okay..."

Listening to the instructions, Liika quickly puts her arms forward and magic into the palm of her hand.

Fire magic is preliminary magic, and because it is easy to handle and more versatile magic, magic that every magician remembers. Furthermore, first-year students especially try to use fire magic because it tends to be recognized as a single person for the first time.

Lika meditated her eyes and imagined the fire strongly. Its vision is linked to the magic vegetables in the body, converted to magic and activated as fire magic. Still no change. But Liika endured and desperately continued her magic. And Bacilli, and a spark scattered from his fingertips.

"... ugh!

Lika let Pickle wiggle her shoulder. I obviously have a response now. Remember that feeling. Lyka keeps putting her magic into it. And finally, a small sphere of fire jumped out of Lika's palm.

"Yay... I did it! Chateau!"

"Um, sort of. Don't forget the feeling. If you get the hang of it, you'll be able to do all the other magic at that rate."

Lika was delighted to fly because she had been able to use magic for the first time. Shathia spoke out, anxiously saying that the ball of fire couldn't be zero, and calmed Lika down. And Shatia stared seriously at the ball of fire.

The muscles are not bad. Rather, it should be said that it is brilliant to be able to make a beautiful flame sphere to this point with so much teaching. After all, Lyka just doesn't understand the fundamentals of magic, and she's the one who can if she does, Shatia was convinced.

"Well... shall we do this today then? I'll see you tomorrow."

"Yeah, okay. Thank you, Shatia."

Then a while later, Shatia finished her class and decided to leave school already today. Shatia tells Lika to go home first because she has a cleanup to do, and walks quietly down the hall by herself.

There was no one left in the classroom anymore, and Shatia's footsteps were echoing all over the hallway. Second, a shadow appeared from the front. That was a few female students.

"That's Shatia. You stayed in school till this time ~?

One of the female students behaves as if she had encountered Shatia by chance. But Shatia had found it to be a lie. I noticed it on the way. That they are ambushing because of their magical reaction. So I sent Lyka home first and directed her so that the target could be herself. Shatia doesn't even look panicky, but arms up in a rinsy manner.

"Oh, the cleaning's prolonged. What can I do for you?

"Nothing. We just had a little errand to run, too. But Mr. Shatia, you were really cleaning ~?

Shatia lies appropriately, but another girl student bit the lie. I stare at Shatia with words I licked to decide it was more a lie than that. But from Shathia's point of view, it just seemed like a lot of kids, such as a girl student's stare, which I rather thought was adorable.

"Absolutely. Or do you need to throw up my lies?

Shatia asks so with open arms. As usual, the girls stared at Shatia to stare at her and looked grumpy. And finally, the first female student stepped forward and opened her mouth.

"We know, don't we? Shatia said you were doing something with Lika."

"You're doing something secret in the storage room, aren't you? Be honest with me."

Finally, to get to the point, the girls raised one question after another. Shatia leans her neck, shaking her neck sideways, wondering what's wrong with her.

Nothing. You can answer honestly. This one didn't do anything wrong. It's nothing like telling a teacher. But when they complained about their legitimacy, they were not convinced. Shatia knew that. That's why I bother my head and figure out how to make it easy.

"Nothing... I'm just having a little chat. Is that bad?

In the end, Shatia decided to answer appropriately. There's no point in answering honestly, or bothering to tell the truth. They just want to exude the stress they're having, and they don't want a good reason.

Upon hearing Shatia's grumpy answer, the prospective girls wrinkled between their grumpy eyebrows.

"Will you not get too well? Because I'm an integrator and a little smart... and if you don't have [talented] Lloyd's back shield, you can crush it!

Poke my finger at me. The female student came to let go of those words. What the hell are you going to crush? They and Shatia pose like trouble with their hands up. In that ridiculous attitude, the girls showed more and more anger.

"Kuk... right or crush..."

"What's wrong with you!

Suddenly Shatia laughed out. Put your hands on your mouth to keep your laughter down as you wave your shoulders. I didn't understand why I laughed, and one of the female students disputed. The students around them also distance themselves from Shatia like they were creepy and a little scared.

"No, I don't... think it's stupid to be pure with a child who doesn't know things"

Shatia leaked a little magic. I'm never angry, but it really leaked a lot of nature and a little magic. That was all the pressure the girls felt, bending their knees as they sweated cold from all over their bodies. Surrounded by unprecedented fear, they let their teeth wave.

"You can use magic to silence Gawa if you want to... but I don't think that makes sense. If he doesn't grow himself, he won't change."

Shatia said that quietly. The girls didn't know exactly what that meant, but they still didn't do anything to disprove it anymore. He just shuts up and walks down to Shathia and bows his head down.

Shatia slowly approached one of the female students. Fear looms. I might get my neck chopped off. There was so much pressure coming upon me that I imagined that. And finally, as Shatia approached next door, the pressure of putrid and magic subsided.

"Don't guide me. Sooner or later, Lika will be a sorcerer than you. So you guys don't have a problem with that?

"... ugh!

Pong slapped him on the shoulder and Shatia said so with a smile. I don't know what the hell kind of emotion was in that expression, but the female student burst into tears in her eyes and collapsed on the spot like she was still relieved that she was alive. The other female students also look like they are heartily tired. Shatia headed to the dumpster as she passed between them.
