3 YEARS AGO

Lady Elfaria is amazing!

So this is the real rain?

I've never seen rain before.

The Magia Vander can even control the weather.

Too far... Way too far.

I want to stand beside you,

but I couldn't even control a single drop of water.

Elfie, do you think I can catch up to you?

You're going to catch a cold.

This is called an umbrella.

I made this myself because I want to be an artificer.

Who are you?

My name is Rosty. Rosty Nowman.

From today on, I'm your roommate.

I want to be your friend,

Will Serfort.

Rosty...

You're making good use of the Mage Queen's legacy, Caldron.

I was the one who put him into this academy.

I have a duty to guide and support him.

The reconstruction of his memories is going well.

With this, he can return to normal.

Instead, his beloved Sleeping Beauty

is being lulled in the cradle of his memories.

I wonder what kind of dream you're having right now.

EPISODE 17: DAY OF DEPARTURE

You finally woke up.

Clairie... Ed...

Treating your own injuries as an afterthought.

You haven't changed at all since your student days, you fool.

Even if you're an immortal, you have to treat yourself better.

Where is this?

The academy's infirmary.

Eliza.

I carried you from the academy rooftop after you collapsed there last night.

I'm happy to see you awake, Workner.

Why are you acting like you're his wife, Blood-Sucking Underclassman?

Oh, Stupid Witch Upperclassman.

You're the one who needs to quit your blatant man-chasing act.

You're seriously delusional. Aren't you embarrassed?

Three of us are bound by passionate friendship!

Don't you dare come between the bonds of classmate, you vixen!

What about Will? Is he okay?

Stop acting up, fool.

Headmistress Caldron is taking care of him.

Headmistress?

Nothing bad will happen if we leave him to that witch.

For now, you need to sleep.

Everyone!

Professor Workner is fine. And him too.

Is that true, Lyril?

Yes, Professor Eliza told me.

And Will...

I mean, that Learner can attend the graduation ceremony too.

Thank goodness.

It'd feel awful if he didn't manage to survive. - He fought the hardest, after all.

He's as tough as a dwarf. - What a bunch of dimwits.

Julius?

Why worry about someone who uses such incomprehensible powers?

Why are you being so rude, Julius? You used to be...

Don't bring out the past here, Emma!

After all, weren't you guys the ones looking down on him until recently?

The ones who are conveniently twisting things here are you.

Every single one of you has been poisoned just like the Great Elf...

In my eyes, it's you who's being stubborn now.

Is this what you call peer pressure?

I won't yield to such things.

Even if you do not want to acknowledge it, at least you should keep your gratitude.

Have you forgotten your noblesse oblige, O Great Noble?

Either way, that guy can't go to the Tower.

So grow up!

What do you think, Sion?

Sion?

The death toll from the Terminalia disaster reaches approximately three thousand.

The culprit behind the attack remains at large.

The investigation will be assigned to each faction.

Prioritize the restoration of the capital city first.

Understood, Lord Aaron.

Also...

About Will Serfort.

Even though he was enrolled in the Academy,

why was no one aware of his presence for these six years?

It was likely the work of Headmistress Caldron.

I think she kept him hidden until he had grown mature.

Witch of Cauldron...

Like Logwell, the mages of that generation tend to act rashly.

From now on, I'm leaving the Sword entirely to Finn.

Lord Aaron, what are your thoughts on Will Serfort?

Leave it to fate.

After all, the Mage Queen has vowed,

both wand and sword will eventually come together.

Sorry for the delay, our king.

Summoning us on such short notice.

Another boring postmortem, eh?

Shut your mouth, Savage. Your voice pollutes my ears.

We're going to share the information on the culprits.

Starting from the All-Student Praxis incident until now.

Through the capital, the dungeon, and even the inside of the Tower.

Any leads from the recovered Mage Slayers?

Nothing.

What about the monsters?

Those crazy folks from Upper Institute already dissected the corpses, didn't they?

Nothing.

There's nothing to share then, you incompetent king.

Is there not even a single clue?

If I had to guess...

The Great War ten years ago.

They gave off the same stench as those destroyers who once shook the Magical World.

You're telling me there are survivors from the Day of Annihilation?

Interesting!

So those filthy ghosts are coming back?

Is there a chance that you're wrong?

They should have been destroyed by Lefiya and others at great cost.

Are you scared?

Right, you weren't in that war.

Why don't you run back to your forest right now?

Insect Woman.

This is why I don't want to attend the Magia Vander meeting.

You want to die, you bastard?

Don't say that after you tried to kill me.

Should I beat you first?

Enough.

Each faction should proceed with its investigations.

The pruning of new buds, the Bloom, is approaching.

Don't neglect preparations for that either.

And you, Sarissa.

Yes!

What are you doing there?

My apologies.

Where is that woman?

All Magia Vanders must be present without exception.

About that...

She said she has a stomachache and is taking a day off.

Colette.

Lihanna.

What about that flower?

It's for Rosty.

There isn't a grave for him yet. I thought I should at least bring this.

What kind of person was Rosty Nowman?

I don't really know much about him either.

Since he was majoring in artificer, I didn't see him much.

I heard he was a transfer student from Terralis, the city to the west.

He just showed up out of nowhere.

And before I knew it, he was always next to Will.

I was jealous.

But Will...

He seemed so happy to have made a special friend.

As expected of Rigarden.

With the help of the dwarves, the repairs are going very quickly.

The city will be back to normal in no time.

Invess.

Hey there, Iris.

I told you to stop calling me that.

I don't like that name.

It's perfect.

Because I hate you.

You never change, do you?

So, why'd you call me if you hate me?

Please leave Senior Will alone.

If you get involved, it will only push the clock forward.

And if that happens, he won't be able to stop himself.

What a surprise.

I didn't expect to hear such a thing from a Watcher.

Have you fallen for him?

What?! Who...

Iris, sorry, but...

I will be taking him.

Today is the graduation ceremony.

Caldron's game is over.

1 YEAR AGO Hey, Will.

1 YEAR AGO You know, if I were to disappear...

Would you be sad?

What do you mean?

I met you here, and we made so many memories.

I started to wonder.

If saying goodbye to you would make you feel lonely,

maybe I shouldn't have met you.

T-That's not true!

I was so happy to meet you!

I was really happy!

So, please don't say such sad things.

I'm sorry.

But when you go to the Tower, I may not be by your side anymore.

You don't have enough credits?

Yes, something like that.

I might end up making Will Serfort, who will go to the Tower, sad someday.

But...

I will keep watching over you.

My hair color is back to normal.

I wonder what that was.

Would you have known the reason if you were here?

Rosty.

I'm off.

RIGARDEN MAGICAL ACADEMY AUDITORIUM

Magical Doctrine Number 1:

The Great Mage Queen said,

"Laugh."

"Celebrate."

"Whether it blooms or not, when you look up,

flowers surely dwell in the heavens."

Many lives were lost in the tragedy at the Terminalia incident.

Professors of our academy.

More than a few students.

Including the High Mages of the Tower,

and to all those who sacrificed their lives to protect the people,

we express our deepest condolences and greatest respect.

But we have to stop hanging our heads.

Now that the Tower has been threatened, that tragedy was not an end,

but a warning bell that signals the coming of disaster.

It is the duty of this school to send the hopes we've nurtured into the future.

We will now begin the Rigarden Magical Academy graduation ceremony.

Students of the 401st class, please stand.

Line up in front of the stage.

Please receive your diplomas when your name is called.

Agnes Fouques.

Ardens Richie.

Austin Lott.

Will Serfort.

Valerie Lyce.

Zara Orbrand.

Zera Orbrand.

Zoey Garniga.

I hereby certify that 250 students have completed the full curriculum

and officially graduated from Rigarden Magical Academy.

And finally,

I will now announce the individuals who will be advancing to the Tower.

When your name is called, come up on stage.

You will be presented with a Hat of Mercedes,

which symbolizes your right to advance to the Tower.

I hereby certify that these 49 students who have earned the required credits

will advance to the Tower.

I'm sorry, Elfie.

However, there is one more student.

This student fulfilled the graduation requirements at the very last moment.

There are two ways to advance to the Tower.

One is to earn 7,200 credits.

The other is to create a new spell.

This magic spell has swept away the despair,

protected countless lives, and saved the capital city.

This is truly a stunning achievement.

A glorious feat worthy of praise.

The name of this magic spell is...

Courage.

Will Serfort.

Step forward.

Headmistress!

I'm sure there are some who would object.

Even so, those who recognize his courage as magic,

please give a warm round of applause.

Ed, it's time to let it go.

As if I can!

How can she show him a sweet dream and thrust him into the depths of despair?

How can she let him suffer the same fate as me?

He'll definitely overcome it.

After all, he's been put through the wringer by a very scary and kind professor.

You are really greedy, Caldron.

Perhaps, it's time to spur the Sword to new horizons?

These fifty students are hereby approved to advance to the Tower.

You're all the Grim Generation.

I'm sure you'll face a turbulent future filled with countless trials.

Even so, I pray that you will reach the heavens and vanquish the evils!

Congratulations, Will.

The graduation ceremony is over.

The new mages will come...

Lady Elfaria?

I've been waiting for you, Will.

Year 506 of the Magical Era.

Later known as the Year of Hope and Loss.

This new year is about to begin.
