The magic...

A fire that big...
from my two hands

---- 3

Bratsche: You did it!!

Shchel-kun!!

Finally

You did it!!

Lute: ...

to make magic!!

You're amazing
Lute-san!

Awriiight, let's do it!!

Great: ...

And pass the test!!
Bratsche: That's right, Shchel-kun!!
Do your best!!

sfx by piroro: haa haa

haa haa

Piroro: Shchel...
...

you can't...
this alone...

you shouldn't do
this magic
you should not
use it...

---- 6

1 week later---
sfx: OOOH

Horn Pipe: Finally, the "big day" is here!!
Show me...!!

Do some magic!!

---- 7

Horn Pipe: If you can't, you're expelled!!
Shchel: Yes!

Horn Pipe: A magical circle that I've never seen before...
sfx: intense stare
A winged goddess... no
Looks like something else...
It's a fairly large
complex design...

Is she the goddess of fortune,
or a harbinger of misery?

He brought Lute as support, but...

Bratsche: Shchel-kun...

---- 8

In this whole week
Shchel: (meaningless scribbles)
Bratsche: Even though you applied yourself so desperately to your special training...

Even though you gave your best...

And repeated the spell's aria countless times

The flame only came out...
on the first try...

Biyorne: Is Shchel-kun going to be alright?
He only made it work once

Lute: The fire Shchel-kun produced
is called Saint Elmo's Fire

---- 9

It suddenly appears on the rigging of ships and instantly sets them alight,
burning giants ships whole into cinders.
Feared by the sailors... the so-called
Cannonball (kanji: ball of fire)

Biyorne: That's awesome!
Shchel-kun!!

Great: Cannon
ball... eh...

---- 10

Lute: No... it's weird
Normally only a small spell comes out the first time
It was the case with your sister and you

I expected something on the level of
the light of a firefly, but...

Even though
there was no way

Something that big could come out...
Moreover there has been no reaction at all since then

Bratsche: Shchel-kun... give your best...

Biyorne: Isn't it because it's him!?

Lute: It's unstable, and that aura...
I...

---- 11

I may have made
a mistake...

This magic...
gives me a bad feeling...!

Shchel: (meaningless characters)
(sfx: haa haa)
S, strange...

---- 12

I trained much more
(chanting)
than the first time
The aria and the magic circle are perfect, but...

I don't feel like it's coming out...
The shock, the heat that welled up

from inside my body
That day...
are not coming...!!

Why...!?
(chanting)
Why, why...

Bratsche: God...
Please...
Give Shchel strength...

---- 13

sfx Horn Pipe: wipe wipe

sfx Horn Pipe: nod nod

sfx Horn Pipe: snooore zzzzz

sfx Horn Pipe: Suu

---- 15

Horn Pipe: You're expelleeeeeeeeeeed!!

Eeh?... That's... why...!!
He hasn't even...!

Shut up! He's been at it for over 5 hours!!
Don't you people get hungry!?
Handwritten: I've already eaten!

Nothing happens no matter how much you stare in silence
Shchel: Uuh, you're right, but--
Horn Pipe: You're expelled!!
sfx: DAAH

---- 16

Shchel: That's... sensei... but...
it came out!!
it really did...
It came out for real!
from me

It came out!!
Quiet! Even if for example you made it work, a spell that takes this long to cast
is useless!!

You're expelled!!

---- 17

Piroro voiceover: Shchel... You shouldn't...
I... I've always been with you, but...
Shchel: Uh
Uh...
Uh

Piroro: I can't help you
with this magic

Shchel: Uh
Piroro: This magic...
Shchel: Uuugh...
Piroro: Brought misfortune to a great many people...

Shchel: Uuuuh... uh
Piroro: And to you as well...
Shchel: Ha...

---- 18

Shchel: Harmony...

---- 19

Soldiers: There's no mistake

This is Pegasus'...
feather...

It belonged to Lord Percuss...
It must have happened close by

The communication was cut off...
in this eerie place...

With this stagnant air... What an evil presence
Commander!!

---- 20-21

It's terrible!!
In the forest over there!

sfx: OOOH
