Chapter 309 Strongest Sage, Observes Combat Training
"Can you show me how you guys usually go about your training?"
"Yes! . . . We have more than 10 kinds of training regimes, which one do you like to see?"
"The closest one to the real combat . "
I'd have liked to check out all their training regimes, but we don't have that much time .
Which means, first I need to see their practical training .
As results from basic training and stuff can be seen in practical training .
"Understood! . . . Prepare the anti-demon training regime! Assume Type-A, take up the fourth mobile formation! Spread out!"
""""YES SIR!""""
Right as Meirad gave the order, the Second Academy students nearby immediately move out and took up a formation .
It only took them less than five seconds to form up the formation .
"Wonderful coordination . "
"Yes . After all, this unit is the elite of the elite even in Second Academy . "
Meirad checked up the formation as he said that .
The formation is merely them forming four lines .
Mobile formation isn't really suited for combat .
This is . . . I see they're working under the assumption that they would encounter demons while on the move .
As it's not a guarantee that they will always be in battle formation when a demon appears .
From mobile formation, to swiftly switching into combat formation, this training probably covers those .

"Begin the practice!"
With that, Second Academy Students run off all at once .
Their speed is around 25 km/h . . . The speed Second Academy students can maintain while using the lowest amount of mana possible .
Meanwhile . . . Students who didn't get in the formation fetched lumps of metal embedded with magic stones, and augmented those with unfamiliar magic .
" . . . Illusion magic huh . "
That spell formula is a type of illusion magic .
It's probably an original magic intended for training .
Though their augmenting speed isn't that fast, they're also including movement magic in it .
It's of a moderate quality as a moving target for practice .
To think they would come up with such usage . . . Writing ways to create original magic in Second Academy textbooks was worth the effort .
As I thought that . . . The students threw the illusion-augmented lumps of metal high above .
The thrown metal flew far away with the movement magic .
. . . A few seconds later .
When a lump of metal that had flown off came back, one of the students who had been running around the schoolyard in circle shouted sharply .
"Demon sighted! At 7 o'clock, distance 500 meters . "
"Affirmative! All hands, get into combat formation and begin suppression!"
Meirad pointed at the lump of metal as he said that .
The magic augmented on the lump of metal was already active, showing an illusion of demon .
Volleys of arrows augmented with restraining magic shot off toward that illusions .
All of them have been augmented with abnormal status magic .
"7 abnormal status magic arrows, direct hit! Begin restraining!"
Meirad shouted that, confirming the hit .
"Unit 2 and unit 3, switch to attack magic!"
"Affirmative!"
Following Meirad's command, part of the students switched from augmenting restraining magic to attack magic .
Some students also started unleashing attack magic besides shooting arrows .
. . . What a neat cooperation .
Swiftly taking attack formation after discovering an enemy, shooting restraining magic, then putting in damaging magic once the enemy stopped moving .
Sounds easy, but pulling off this tactics perfectly is actually really hard .
A lesser demon would have long been dead with this .
"Suppressed the virtual enemy! Give me status report on our current forces!"
Meirad declared that when the suppression practice was over .
Then the students started giving him a lowdown on the number of arrows shot, remaining mana and such .
This training must also cover how to stay on top form for the next encounter with demons .
Meirad asked me once they were done reporting .
"The one set just now . . . is the training to deal with demons when our whole units are present . Since in reality, all members won't necessarily be present always, we've also been doing training to buy time with fewer people . "
I see .
How do I say it . . . It's quite wholesome .
They got this far in that short amount of time huh .
