From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman

A few months into his appointment as the Liberion Order's special instructor, Beryl Gardenant is settling into his new life in the capital. One day, he's visited by Lucy and Ficelle, who ask him to become a temporary instructor at the Magic Institute. Beryl joins the sword magic course where Mewi is enrolled, witnesses Ficelle's teaching methods, and finds himself facing off against her...

Beryl wrestles with teaching Ficelle - who is a terrible teacher - how to actually teach. Mewi struggles to fit in with her fellow students, but a conversation with Cindy at lunch hints at that beginning to change. At a small party, Beryl views both Mewi and Ficelle's growth with satisfaction. And then an unexpected disturbance rocks the Magic Institute.

Wolf-shaped shadows attack the teachers and magic is rendered useless on campus. Able to fight even without magic, Beryl and Ficelle force their way into the school in an effort to uncover the cause of the strange happenings. When shadow wolves appear in the cafeteria, Mewi and her classmates decide to confront them, despite their inexperience. Two battles unfold - so how will they end?
