And so, with the efforts of everyone at the academy, the public lesson day ended without a hitch.
The gates of the academy closed, and the mages who had come from the outside all returned to the town with joyful expressions. Today was not only an important day for the academy, but also for them because it had seemed to change their initial ideas of magic and opened up a whole new world for them.
Learning magic this way... was really amazing.
Perhaps it was because there was some reluctance to part in the heart of these people that they did not immediately leave Academy, but rather stayed in the town for a few days after. At one point they even formed an exchange meeting on their own initiative. These mages who had undergone the nurturing of the academy gathered in a diner and exchanged their experiences with magic, encouraging and strengthening each other.
After hearing about this, Benjamin stroked his chin, full of interest. The response was unexpected but very much welcome.
