"Hah, I'm sick of this..."

Dorothy sits still on the couch in front of her.

"I want to study magic quickly..."

"No, but class starts tomorrow."

"I don't like it! You don't have to hope..."

Dorothy whispers as she looks up at the ceiling.

After a long tour of the school, we came back to the dorm.

At first, everyone's eyes were sparkling at the novel facility and the highest magic school, but in the second half of the extra space, the color of fatigue appeared dark.

Of course, so am I.

After all, it took me a whole day.

As soon as they returned to the dormitory, they returned to their rooms, where they each spent a relaxing time.

"... Speaking of which, what was it in the library?

"Library?"

Dorothy sat back and looked at us with a serious look.

"What did you say about the magic trail? Nobody cared about that, but... I didn't feel anything of magic at all."

"No, it means as it is..."

Dorothy looks bitter.

"What, even if everybody doesn't know, I can see the signs of magic?" I don't know what it is. You don't know that!

Um... I'm in a bit of a bad mood.

"I can't help it. I felt it."

Dorothy has a very complicated face and wrinkles between her eyebrows.

but sighed lightly as if she had given up something.

"I'm sorry."

I apologized suddenly this time!

Are you okay with this?

"What's wrong? Something's wrong."

"Yeah..." Ha, what am I doing? Even though I was able to enroll in the highest magic school... It's only natural that things that I don't understand will happen.

Face down and hold your fist tightly.

Are you in a hurry?

"What's the matter, the library?

By surprise, Dorothy and I jumped too much in surprise.

Soon the Lord of Voices was a girl with glasses sitting on a sofa.

"Eh? Since when?

"I don't know..."

"Ah, I'm sorry... because they say I'm good and shallow. Actually, I've been here a long time..."

"Always!?

I thought it was Dorothy.

That's a lie. I didn't notice.

The girl looks sorry.

"Ahahah... I didn't mean to eavesdrop."

"No, I'm sorry, I didn't realize..."

"It's okay, because it's the usual thing. I'm Bio, sophomore. You're freshmen, aren't you? I was with Homura-san yesterday."

"Yes, I'm Gilford. This is Dorothy."

Dorothy slaps me in the shoulder.

"Hey, what are you doing introducing me to? I'm Dorothy Goat. Thank you very much."

Nice to meet you.

Mr. Bio lowers his head.

What a soft senpai.

When did you say what happened to the library?

"Um, what about the library?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I heard you talking about the library..."

"Do you know anything?

"I don't know much about it. I wonder if it's a magic school urban legend."

Dorothy and I face each other.

Urban legend? Is that what I felt?

"Can I ask you something?

"Fine, but it's not that big of a thing.

"True or False"

"Really, the library is quite far away, isn't it?

Speaking of which, I feel that the library was situated a little further away.

"Actually, there's a reason for that, too. Did you go underground in the main building?

"Gone! It's like a training room, and it's really amazing."

Dorothy talks excitedly.

"That's right. It's pretty big, isn't it? That's why I was standing so far away from it that I wouldn't bump into it."

"Um, just a moment, please? We're talking underground, right? What is the relationship with the library?"

"That's why we're talking underground. In fact, the library has quite a large basement."

Underground!

Really, underground? Is that a sign of underground reaction?

Dorothy's face became a little steep.

"Of course, it's just a rumor. I don't think there's anything in the library at the entrance to the basement, and I've never met anyone before. It's just that those rumors are all alone."

Bio laughs nicely.

"Is that all the rumors? What's in that basement?

"I've been told that there are a lot of things. As a matter of fact, there are a large number of Wartime beasts captured, and there are weapons left by the demons in the demonic world. I don't know if the Grimoire of the Devil is stored or the Book of Forbidden Magic is stored... honestly, I don't know if there's anything underground in the first place."

‥ ‥ ‥

If such a big thing is really underground... it's not strange if it's protected by a junction.

So, the traces of magic leaking from the boundary are really traces, and I'm the only one who can feel it?

And the rumor is that there are no people who can sense the traces of pure magic.

"If that's the case, if it's really in the basement, it's dangerous."

"Well, that's why it's rumored. No one has ever been in the basement, and I've never felt a trace of magic. It's a fabricated story made by faraway seniors. Well, that's interesting, isn't it?

Listen, Dorothy looks at me.

"Traces..."

The existence of the underground... the existence of me who felt the traces of magic...

For Dorothy, something magical underground might be trying to get out of the rumor.

Well, I wouldn't say that while I thought I was lying.

"There are many other rumors..."

That's how Senpai Bio told me all sorts of rumors.

From nasty to somewhat dangerous.

Both of them were hard to believe, but neither I nor Dorothy were concerned about the underground stories in the library, so I didn't really get into my head.

And then, a few minutes later...

"Ah, this time already. For now, I'm going to bed today. I have class tomorrow.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I talked with excitement."

"No, I found it helpful. Bye, Gil. Good night."

Dorothy left behind and went back to her room.

"Did I say something extra?"

Bio drops off Dorothy's back and becomes fluffy.

"No, it was a great reference. Library... Interesting rumor."

"That's right. Well, it's an old school of history, and whatever happens, it's not surprising. I guess I'll go to bed too. See you later, Gil."

"Yes, good night, Mr. Bio."

Underground in the library.

I didn't even notice the high level of boundaries... that's not the level of rumors.

Well, I'm not sneaking up on a god I don't touch.

For now, don't worry about it.
