Dragons.
The pinnacle of mythical creatures.
'I wonder if it's because of this that Stella is so interested in everything related to the mythical.'
All along, Stella believed herself to be a natural interference-type Blazer with the elent of fire.
But in reality, this was a cognitive error on her part and by everyone around her.
Assuming she was a fire natural interference-type just because she could manipulate flas—this judgnt was simply too one-sided.
The problem is that this is a blind spot that is very difficult to notice.
Stella's magic capacity matched the power she displayed.
Because she exhibited the power of an A-Rank natural interference-type Blazer, no one had any real doubts about this conclusion.
It felt like it was decided entirely by just going with the flow.
But Noah was different.
Possessing the "Truth Seeker" skill, he already knew that the true power within the girl's body wasn't a natural interference-type at all.
Instead, it was a conceptual interference-type.
Conceptual interference-type—Dragon.
The ability to manifest the power of the mythical creature "Dragon" into reality.
A Blazer's ability is a mysterious power that modern science cannot observe.
Even though this power has existed since the dawn of human history, humanity has yet to grasp the full picture of it.
Being unable to completely explain this power makes occasional misjudgnts inevitable.
When Blazers awaken, they gain a general, though sowhat vague, understanding of their abilities.
For example, a water mage who can manipulate water might actually have the true ability to manipulate liquids in general.
This kind of situation is not uncommon.
Many tis, dragons and flas are inextricably linked.
A dragon's body is incredibly strong.
The dragon scales covering their bodies make them invulnerable to swords and spears, and even magic cannot harm them.
They have massive dragon wings that allow them to soar through the skies, and they can breathe fire, letting their dragon breath incinerate everything.
Dragons have many characteristics, and flas are just one of them.
All along, Stella had been using and perceiving this power as a fire mage, and therefore, she was completely unable to unleash its true might.
But looking at it from another angle, this was also a good thing.
When Stella was a child, she had nearly died several tis just trying to control this power.
If she had used the power of a dragon from the very beginning, she wouldn't be here today, she would have died early on under the sheer weight of her own overwhelming power.
Think back to why this world included "Luck" as a specific tric in ability values.
Because the general view is that the amount of magic capacity equates to a person's destiny, wasn't it also inevitable that Stella would perceive the power of a dragon rely as the power of fire?
Destiny arranged it so, which is why Stella didn't die young from her power going out of control.
'So, if Stella still hasn't realized her true power today, does it an that destiny believes she isn't ready yet?'
Noah saw from Stella's soul just how berserk the dragon's power was.
Frankly speaking, he didn't think Stella could properly handle such imnse power.
If that power were to erupt, let alone the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival, it was possible that even the whole world could be destroyed.
This ability was just that powerful, and even now, it was continuing to grow stronger day by day.
In fact, his own class wasn't fundantally a natural manipulation type either, but should be a conceptual interference type.
If he continued to advance on the path of a Mage-Knight, the League would likely correct this cognitive error sooner or later.
Unlike Stella, his ability looked highly unconventional even on the surface, clearly beyond what a natural interference type could achieve.
A domain capable of manipulating all elents and magical power within a five-ter radius—if treated as a concept, it should be classified as a conceptual interference type.
"Hey, hey, how high is four ters?"
Noah, looking out the window at the training camp center that was already visible, answered casually, "About a little over four ters, I guess."
"Four ters?" Stella tilted her head.
In other words, it was about as tall as the first floor of the school building, maybe even a bit taller.
'A giant! I'm so looking forward to it!'
...
The bus arrived at its destination.
The training camp center wasn't small, but what was even more spectacular were the high mountains and woodlands behind it, the two closely connected.
"As expected of a training camp center, this place should be large enough to accommodate half the students of Hagun Academy. Leaving such a massive place empty most of the ti—the academy is really extravagant." Noah muttered a complaint under his breath.
Coincidentally, Kanata Totokubara overheard him.
She replied, "The maintenance fees aren't cheap either, and it's only used two or three tis a year."
"The motives of the suspicious individuals loitering around here seem to have reached a point where guessing is no longer necessary."
"Yeah, without a doubt."
According to the student council, the training camp center will be used in the future as an intensive training facility for the representatives of the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival.
If there are suspicious people active here, they are definitely targeting the festival's representatives.
However.
How could such a covert operation be so easily discovered?
Noah felt that there must be so conspiracy hidden within.
But at the end of the day, this was still Hagun Academy's turf.
The other party shouldn't be able to pull off anything too outrageous here.
He wondered if this had anything to do with Rebellion.
Or was it another faction altogether?
"OK, then without further ado, let's hurry up and make dinner!" Utakata Misogi suddenly pulled out two stuffed plastic bags from who knows where.
Noah was stunned for a mont and asked Kanata Totokubara beside him, "Aren't we going to hurry and investigate the surroundings?"
The one who answered him was Tohka Todo.
Rolling up her sleeves, she smiled and said, "Then we have to fill our stomachs first, otherwise, if we really run into suspicious people, we won't even have the stamina to subdue them."
"Agreed!" Stella was the first to raise both hands high. "But are there any restaurants in this wilderness? Don't tell it's a cafeteria?"
Even though it wasn't a school trip, being able to go out with schoolmates still felt very novel to her. So she was quite excited.
Tohka Todo shook her head, then lifted the plastic bags to her chest and shook them.
"Unfortunately, the cafeteria here isn't open normally. Besides, Stella, did you forget? This is a training camp center, so of course it has an outdoor kitchen."
Hearing this, a flash of inspiration went through Stella's mind.
Plots from many manga quickly surfaced, and she grasped the idea instantly!
"D-Don't tell we're going to cook our own als, and outdoors at that!"
'It's here! It's finally here! One of the essential activities for a school trip! Group cooking!!'
