When Chuck arrived at the Combat Mage Training Grounds, the sparring matches were about to start.
Since he was late, his arrival pulled the attention of the students, as well as Professor Isolde, who was in charge of today's joint class.
"Chuck No Rizz, you're late," Professor Isolde frowned.
"I'm sorry, Professor," Chuck replied apologetically. "I was studying till late last night. I overslept."
"Fine, line up with the others. As punishment, you will be fighting four mages today in this sparring match."
"… Yes, Professor."
Chuck lined up with everyone else before lightly tapping his storage ring. A moment later, his face turned pale, realizing that he had forgotten to store the Conqueror's Heart Potion inside his storage ring before rushing out of the clock tower earlier.
Perhaps noticing his anxiety, Nessia moved closer and asked if he was alright.
