Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

-Ptssssssss…

-Ptssss? Ptssss…

-Ptssssss!

"She\'s fine. Don\'t worry."

"Yeah… it was inevitable from the start."

She took the three snakes and the three also quickly climbed her hand and wrapped themselves on her neck.

"Hehe, it tickles~."

The snakes were hugging her as they felt her sadness and this scene was cute~!

"You really are something, girlie girl."

And our cool teacher was laughing at her so this was even more cool~!

But some students in the class were in a bad condition after witnessing that somewhat bitter thing and I knew how they all felt.

\'Poor people…\'

[[ That was cooooool sister Zoe~! But the end was a little saddening. ]]

[[ "Oh? Celes thinks so too? Then tell brother about this when he\'s done with his class~." ]]

[[ It\'s almost over~! They are doing that little speech thingy~. ]]

[[ "Nice~! Then our class is also almost over~!" ]]

[[ Yeiiiii~! ]]

[[ "Yeiiiiii~!" ]]

Little Celes was cute as always but she was smart too. Just like that little one sister Elle names Bob.

He was a good creature but alas…

\'We won\'t be seeing him for a while now.\'

Anyway, he hadn\'t vanished. And that was good.

There is a possibility that the two of them can get him back but we don\'t know about it~.

"Alright, alright everyone."

-Snap!

Teacher snapped her finger and a strange wave of fresh air passed through the classroom and the students that were feeling unwell, regained their normal state.

"I know it wasn\'t a scene that everyone can handle but remember students…"

She looked at the two of us, at the class, at the boy on the other side and at the back and, took a deep breath as the air around her changed from a casual one to a unique professional one.

"Research is a difficult thing and when it comes to energy beasts, this research becomes even more difficult.

It is inevitable to be away from energy beasts when working in this field and you will have to interact with them to learn more about them.

You will also have to visit places that are especially their natural habitats or are closed areas for their preservation.

And in these habitats, you will definitely come across events, scenes, and situations far more gruesome than what you saw today.

You might see the death of a giant creature like that for real and without any censored version. Or you might also come across a massacred colony of creatures with bodies spread all around you with not even blood visible on the ground.

If any if you actually wants to become a energy beast researcher and isn\'t here because of the easy paper of the subject, then a stomach stronger than iron is a must.

The flame to be fascinated by the wonders of nature and these creatures of nature comes right after that.

And the most important thing to be a researcher in this field, isn\'t new idea, talent, or even strength but a curiosity far greater than other research subjects and a fearlessness surpassing even the seasoned adventurers.

You all are young and still have endless time before you to find a field you truly want to give your life to, but if your heart still is fixed on this particular subject, then be prepared to learn endless things about the beings of simplest origin, like your house bugs, to the special creatures that you saw just now.

Also, be prepared to see things worse than today and even perform and witness some anatomical processes by the end of your year.

We don\'t tell this openly but this subject is easy to pass, but the classes themselves, that I know most of you will only attend to maintain the required attendance, are far more difficult to stick through.

And they are also fun, just like you witnessed today~.

A fight of that caliber isn\'t something we do here before your midterms are over but we got to do it on our very first day thanks to Nova and Uriel.

But Uri won, so as promised, she gets three class points and a date with me~!"

Teacher smiled cheerfully at this after her serious talk was over and the class that was in a daze at that serious look that they were seeing for the first time, which definitely felt dangerous to them, she was back to her cheerful state, and they came out of their daze.

\'Hehe, still cute people.\'

And her words, the fact that she really was going to give a precious date to a girl, were like a poison covered needle to many of them.

"Hehe…"

It was funny~.

"And, what\'s your name again, mantis boy?"

She looked at the special person on the other side from us and everyone in the class followed their gaze, and witnessed his look of almost extreme existential crisis.

"H-huh? M-me? Are you asking me ma\'am?"

But this time his neighbor shook him as soon as everyone was looking at him to not waste much of their time and he looked at the calmly smiling teacher.

"Yes, you. Your name. 

And also that girl beside you, the boy on the right side over there, and you, Uri\'s friend. What\'s your name?"

She was asking me too? Well~!

"I\'m Zoe~!"

If a teacher was asking your name, isn\'t it always a good thing in a way~?

"I-I am Dan."

"I\'m Gwen ma\'am."

"Kaivn here~!"

\'Dan was the person whose body he was possessing. Hehehe, good thing he at least knew his name.\'

"Alright so~! Nova, Dan, Gwen, Kaivn, and Zoe also get a class point~.

Zoe, your report on all six of the creatures was especially phenomenal. I don\'t know if you have a genuine interest in this field but if you do, feel free to come to me.

My teacher will definitely love a talent like you."

She smiled at me warmly and I nodded with a simple smile.

And it wasn\'t very positive response so she wasn\'t exactly happy, but it wasn\'t a negative one either, meaning I wasn\'t sure about my future field of particular expertise, so she wasn\'t sad either.

\'But… I think I will know soon what I want to do, so it\'s fine.\'

"Ummm! Ma\'am? How do you know-"

"About what you wrote on those papers dear? Well~."

She smirked at the pretty girl with ruffled hair and lifted her index finger.

-Ooooooooooong!

"I was reading when you all were writing it. And that much\'s enough for a researcher that works with endless data and countless test subjects, no?"

Little yellowish gold lights resembling fireflies appeared out of nowhere and everyone was surprised to see these creatures in their classroom.

"They are usually called golden psyflies or more professionally [Psychic Flambits].

Found in the dark forest of northern continent, these little picky ones have the ability to share visual information with their masters. Fascinating right?"

She was just amazing to have found these rare creatures that avoids almost all unfamiliar presence and even more amazing to have not one or two but twenty seven of these cute creatures.

[[ They are like me~? ]]

[[ "A little similar, little one. But you are always the most amazing~." ]]

[[ Really~ sister Zoe? ]]

[[ "Of course little one. After all, you are one of a kind in this entire nature. Just like big brother~." ]]

[[ Like master? Yeiii~! ]]

\'As cute as ever, hehe.\'

Celes was happy to receive that compliment. But it was certainly true that she was one of a kind.

\'She had cheated her own destiny after all. And on top of that, she even got my brother as his master, someone that had defied the entire nature and still retained a core position here, so of course the two of my amazing family members were amazing~!\'

And big brother was also probably the only human in current world that has heard the voice of—

\'Oops. Its not for right now. Sorry there.\'

"These little one are like my family, just like these snakes, and just like all the other beings back at my other homes.

They are the creatures I have met during my travels and they are the creatures I share a unique story with.

And just like me, probably all the professionals of this field have creatures they share their unique stories with.

And yes I know many of you probably know I am a hunter that has hunted countless of this energy beasts but, that\'s just my way of doing it.

To understand a creature, I understand how to hunt them. And everyone has their unique way.

Some people observe them from close and gather data, some people eat their body parts, some do research with their fluids, while some that I know even has a specific area of a creature\'s body as their focus element.

The world of these energy beats is vast, most probably endless, and that\'s the fun of it.

You can do anything for your research, and it might sound crazy to most, but if you do it within the guidelines, and while not harming their population too much…"

She smirked while looking at everyone once again,and this time, she was also looking at a few people in the class, people like sister Elle and that poor boy at the back.

"You can do as you please to gather new data and find new things that you believe have never been brought up by anyone.

And a little inside secret everyone…"

She leaned in closer and put her hand on the side of her mouth, ready to whisper something.

And everyone Al\'s leaned in closer in an funny attempt to hear her next words.

"You get a lot of money when you do this. A lot. And if you have only a theory or hypothesis that the other researchers can elaborate on, you still get a little something.

You also get something if you help the others only a little bit with your knowledge and you can practically do as you like, name it as research, and probably no one will question you if there are visible results.

Fun right?"

She smiled warmly as she said this. And yes it was a very wrong thing coming from a teacher but, it was truth. 

Magic beast research had more money than artifact and alchemy research combined… 

\'Probably that\'s also a reason sister Elle chose this subject. Hahaha~.\'

She was fun and the words of our pretty teacher had opened the eyes and hearts of many of the students present abd they wanted to ask her many things.

But alas again. Just when some of them prepared their words, she shook her head and took a step back.

"I know you have a lot to ask but our time together for today ends here.

Your next class will be soon so we can talk for a looooong time then. 

Sorry for this but please just swallow down your questions, worries, and sadness for just a little while.

Today was fun. Probably the most fun day of this month for me. And I thank Uri and Nova for that.

You all are fun and there\'s no need to worry that much Nova. You are already very good. Aim to win next time as, we might do something like today again in the future so, everyone should also prepare~.

Alright then.

Ba-bye~.

And Uri. Don\'t think too much about him. 

He was special but we can\'t do anything now aside from asking old Q.

Wash that sad look and go kiss your darling. He would also hate to see you all down like that.

And here. My Chatbox ID. Hit me to discuss about our double date."

She gave her a little card and a little head pat. Looked at me, and gave me one too.

Then she looked at her snakes that wanted to stay with sister Elle and shook her head with another pretty warm smile. Taking them from her neck and kissing their heads.

Then she said goodbye to our class, making the end of our pretty chaotic class… that I can say for sure wasn\'t as chaotic as sister Carry\'s practical where she almost sparked a war.

\'But they also didn\'t have any biiiiiig creatures fighting like our class so this was the most fun~!\'

But it was over now, and though sister Elle was sad, she was now looking forward to meeting big brother and tell him everything that happened here.

\'And then they will have fun together in their alchemy class. Hehe.\'

I also had an important class now but this class, this whole experience, will certainly remain special to me and whole of our class.

\'Still, before going to the next class, I should talk to brother a little. I\'m still a little anxious.\'

My next class was a unique one afterall. And something... I might end up taking as my main profession.

\'Still, brother and sister Elle are definitely going to play happily in their next class. Hahahaha~.\'
