"...Sensei, I did it."
I exhaled deeply and slumped back into my chair after saying those words.
The resonance between the baseball and the apple—finally, I succeeded just after noon, as the clock ticked closer to 1 PM.
"L-let's take a lunch break!" Shirayuki-sensei exclaimed.
"...Yeah. Where do we eat?" I asked.
"We'll be eating in the cafeteria," she replied.
...Now, this feels like a proper camp.
After nodding at her, I deactivated the Silveit thread and stood up.
"The cafeteria's on the first floor?" I confirmed.
"Y-yes. Let's go together!" Shirayuki-sensei said, leading the way as I followed her out of the classroom.
After focusing so intently for so long, my throat was parched. I was eager to get some water.
"I-I heard rumors, but Itsuki-kun, you have an impressive amount of magical power, don't you?" she remarked.
"I'm a Seventh Rank," I replied.
