Your next question is…
“What it something that made you glad you could use magic?”
Tell me whatever comes to mind.

Well, I guess it’d have to be that it’s made cleaning up much easier.

Cleaning up…? You mean like using magic to put books back up on bookshelves? That is much like what the citizens of Briar Valley would do.

Of course I can do something of that caliber with my own two hands. But when there’s much more to clear away, it’s a different story.
Essentially, the set up and tear down tasks for our feasts are all divided evenly among the dormitory students, and are all done manually.
Everyone excels in different kinds of magic, and we all have differing levels of magical abilities. So, it wouldn’t be fair to increase the workload on only some people, right?

I agree. Then, when would you use magic?

…Most recently, I used some when we were doing a thorough cleaning of the whole Scarabia dormitory.
On one of our days off, we divided the work between all of us, and went to clean the common spaces and wash the fabrics, but…
Once the indoor cleaning group was at a good breaking point, I went to go check on how the laundry group was doing, and… They were all playing in the water.

Ah… I bet it was nice to play in the water this time of year.

Sure. They were all shouting and having the time of their life. Even Kalim, who was supposed to be supervising, had joined in.

That sounds fun. I can imagine Kalim’s huge smile.

They really did seem to be having fun, yeah. If only they had finished their work, then I would have felt like smiling too…

From those words, I take it…

Yeah, they hadn’t finished at all. It was almost sunset, and they hadn’t even close to halfway done.
I carelessly thought that it was a small enough amount of work that they’d be able to get it done without any problems, so I delayed checking up on them. That’s completely my fault there.

So, you made up for lost time by using magic…
|

Jamil ![Story Jamil Broomquet.png](/images/a/ad/Story_Jamil_Broomquet.png)
|
Yeah. Since we still needed a few people to be in charge of handwashing the rugs and cushions…
I had a few students use magic carry and dry the laundry.
I also joined them to help, but… It was still a huge load. It was quite the task.
But in the end, we were able to finish on time. It was only thanks to using magic that we were able to get it done and not have to continue into the next day.

I see. I am happy to hear it went well. It must have been good training for you, as well?

You’re a pretty optimistic guy, huh…? Well, I guess it would be good training to help finesse our magical abilities…
But if this were to happen on a daily basis, it would be too much of a burden on me and the other students.
I’ll need to pay more attention in the future to make sure these sorts of incidents don’t happen again.
