Isekaied Into An Eroge, Time To Have Fun! Chapter 88: Magical Theory (2)

"I understand that such a structure might have you all feeling a little anxious and not at all confident in what that ans for your future in this class, but please have so faith in yourselves.

The things that I will be asking you to research and show so form of understanding on are not useless things either; everything we will be going over are theories that will further develop your abilities with anything and everything arcane.

Everything is flexible, so it can be used in more than just spell casting going forwards. Those of you in Enchanting, Alchemy, Arcane Botany and Agriculture, Monsterology and so many other classes will find everything we discuss here to be of imnse help in your academic futures."

When she got to our table she put down the book and gave a soft smile before moving on, making my heart flutter a little as I watched her walk away; part of was feeling fuzzy because of sothing as simple as a smile while so of was worried people might have caught that and start spreading rumors.

Thankfully no one at our table seed to think much of it so I could just move on without much worry whatsoever, and after she finished putting the books down our Professor returned to her podium in the middle, nodding to herself and beginning to speak once more.

"What I just laid down before all of you is a copy of ’Reicharda’s Fundantals of Magic’, and our goal for the next two, maybe three classes is to pore over the entire book and discuss everything we find.

I know most - if not all of you - have already grasped most of the fundantals and are looking to continue your growth via the more interdiate theories and practices, but I simply wish to understand more about my students and how I can best help you.

Also, I doubt I need to say this to you all, but constantly honing and improving on your fundantals will make learning those interdiate things all the easier, which in turns saves you ti, effort, and gives you more confidence once you start tackling the more advanced theories of magic."

I shifted my attention towards the singular book that was placed at our table of five, wondering what she was going to have us do with just the one book, though she answered that question imdiately.

"Now, for today, tomorrow and potentially the day after, I want you to remain in these groups that you have chosen for yourselves and I want you to pick out three Chapters to research. Afterwards you will begin studying said Chapters before presenting it to the class in whichever way you find the be the most efficient and proficient way possible.

It would obviously be best if the Chapters were related to one another, however if you decide to you can pick three completely different Chapters and work on them in smaller groups, however I will be looking for cohesion in your current groups for your presentation."

Being told that we were going to be imdiately thrust into a presentation was definitely not sothing that made completely happy, yet at the sa ti it was definitely one of those things that would get the creative juices flowing because I did not want to start the year with a bad academic performance.

My ’group’ was showing a varying level of excitent at the task we were being handed; Anwen was obviously the most excited, Priscilla seed to be intrigued yet also not happy with who she was going to have to work with, Ishtarnii was indifferent and the shy Jacklyn seed just a little... distraught at this group project.

I wasn’t terribly excited by this either, but at the sa ti socializing with people without having the entire thing devolve into soone getting their cock serviced was definitely going to be refreshing, though whether that would actually be the case with Anwen here was completely unknown to .

She was a wild card through and through, and on top of that Ishtarnii didn’t really hold back either when it ca to her sexual needs being t, so they tended to ’feed’ off of one another and create a loop of constant lust that was practically required to be t.

Anyways, the book wasn’t particularly thick, nor did it seem like it would have a plethora of difficult things to comprehend in it, so this shouldn’t be terribly hard - material wise - for any of us at this table since we were here, at the Academy.

The actual challenge of this was from our group and nothing more, which was most certainly done on purpose by Professor Maryanne since she had this little smile on her face that was practically overflowing with mischief.

So groups were filled with those who had stumbled on in last minute, others had prodigies that were well known across the realms, and others were just haphazardly grouped together based on available seating, preferences and blind hope.

"You may begin whenever, and if you have a question please feel free to answer. I’ll be around as well to check in with everyone and get to know you all better, so I shan’t be far~! Good luck everyone~!"

With that she set us off into our first proper bit of classwork so far, and it was sowhat surprising since there was that belief that the first day or two would be spent doing little to no work at all... which we were obviously wrong about.

The mont that she finished speaking all of the groups turned towards the book and stared at it for a few monts, uncertain of how to begin or who would take charge... only for each group to have soone step up imdiately after that montary pause.

For us it was unsurprisingly Anwen, who slid the book over to herself, flipped it open, and promptly asked "We could divide it if you all wish? Though the issue is we have an uneven number of people here, so...", looking around at us with a sowhat apologetic smile.

"That... it could work, depending on who we have doing what. If need be I don’t particularly mind doing my own research and presenting my portion."

Priscilla let out a huff at my suggestion while Ishtarnii shrugged, leaving Anwen to look towards the quiet Jacklyn as she asked "And what about you, Jacklyn? Do you want to work alone or in a group?"

The Dogkin bit her lip and stared at the table for a few seconds, not looking at any of us and clearly debating with herself inside of her mind before giving an answer, a bit of conviction shining in her eyes.

"I... I want to work in a group..!"

That conviction died imdiately when she noticed we were all staring at her, causing the Dogkin to shrink into herself a little before being forcefully dragged back out as Ishtarnii said "Then you will work with the rest of us. The question is what are we going to do, and will we still divide work or tackle it as a team?"

"Well, it looks like there are a few Chapter headers in here that are fascinating, such as ’What is a Hub?’, ’How to Cast’, ’Magic: It’s all around us’ and... huh, there’s even a passage titled ’Passion Made Manifest’. That seems fun~!"

Jacklyn shrunk back down as we all began to focus on the book instead of her, though her own curiosity was piqued as she heard about that last Chapter, which definitely sounded like it might be a bit ’steamy’ only for us all to chuckle wryly when Ishtarnii gently smacked the back of Anwen’s head.

"You know it has nothing to do with sex, you idiot. Reicharda was a prolific magician who relied on emotions to empower her spells, hence the ’passion’ she writes about. We studied about this not too long ago."

The Harekin just giggled and shrugged her shoulders as she continued to parse through the list of Chapters, reading them out loud and trying to find the three that we would study and present to the rest of the class.

"Considering who we have in our group, should we not just go ahead and focus completely on the basics? They are simpler, yes, but they allow for more intriguing demonstrations and explanations compared to everything else, and as our Professor said, having additional understanding of the basics can only do us good for the future, so it isn’t a waste of ti either."

Now it was the Elf speaking, and she shot a rather dirty look like I was sohow to bla for the entire class needing to do an assignnt on the fundantals of magic, sothing that made sigh quietly as I wondered just how long this was going to go on for.

If it was for more than a week I was definitely going to try and get to another group, though at the sa ti the idea of seeing her slowly co to the realization that I wasn’t inferior to her was so damn appealing... I just needed to reach that point soti soon...
