Chapter 83

**General Marking**

It is a milestone that can be achieved by those with exceptional talent who continue to make extraordinary efforts. Once one obtains the General Marking, they can use the higher-level magic known as "General Magic," and they also receive bonuses to their physical abilities and the power of their magic.

In other words, there is a significant difference in strength between those who have the General Marking and those who do not.

"How reckless... You must know the difference in our abilities."

Kojirou said this to Ruisha, who was holding her sword, with a sigh.

Of course, Ruisha also understood that she was at a disadvantage.

Ruisha's "Dragon General" General Marking was incomplete, so she couldn't use "General Magic" or benefit from the power-up provided by the marking.

However, she couldn't run away because she had to protect the people behind her.

"Sharo! Is the teacher's condition okay!?"

"Yes! There's no danger to his life!"

Sharo and the other students were treating Regas.

Fortunately, the wounds were not deep and not fatal.

However, Regas seemed to be in considerable pain, groaning, "Ugh..."

"This needs to be treated quickly... Rona! Can you help!?"

"Y-Yes! Leave it to me, Sharo!"

The one called by Sharo was a female student named "Rona Whitebell," dressed in a white robe.

She had a gentle and calm personality, and her large chest and hips, along with her overflowing maternal nature, made her very popular among male students.

Her specialty was "Healing Magic." While she was completely useless at other types of magic and had no athletic ability, her healing magic was unmatched.

"Teacher! Are you okay? I'll heal you now!"

"Ugh, please..."

"Here we go. Advanced Healing!!"

As Rona chanted, green light began to gather at the wound on Regas's abdomen.

The light alleviated the pain that was tormenting Regas and began to close the wound.

In just a few seconds, Regas's wound disappeared completely, and the pain was entirely gone.

"Phew, are you okay now?"

"Great job, Rona! You're amazing, my friend!"

Sharo patted Rona's back vigorously.

Rona, looking a bit pained, blushed and smiled, "Hehe."

"Now, the problem is over there."

With Regas's condition stabilized, Sharo turned her attention to Ruisha and the others.

The two were standing still, swords at the ready. To an untrained eye, they might seem to be just standing there, but Sharo could see that they were engaged in a high-level psychological battle, suspecting each other's moves and feinting with their gazes.

"Hey, shouldn't we help them?"

Barn, feeling guilty for not doing anything, suggested this, but surprisingly, it was Volfe who disagreed.

"No... that's not a good idea."

"Why not? It's better than fighting alone, right?"

"No, this time the opponent is too strong. If we join in, we'll just get in the way of the captain...!"

As Volfe spoke, a trickle of blood ran from the corner of his mouth.

He was clenching his teeth so hard out of frustration that they were bleeding.

Barn, noticing this, stopped asking.

"We need to... get stronger."

"Yeah, I'm tired of feeling this way."

The two of them vowed to become stronger and watched Ruisha's battle.
