The reason why Fangzheng did this, of course, was not out of kindness. On the contrary, he was planning to dig a big hole for Japan.
Obviously, if the "universal flight magic" could really be completed, it would definitely be popularized in all aspects. As long as Fangzheng designed a backdoor in it, it would be equivalent to controlling the lifeblood of the entire Japan – the gravity-controlled nuclear fusion furnace. Similarly, if Fangzheng really invented this thing and it was adopted by Japan, he would be able to control the energy of the entire Japan at any time, anywhere …. Nothing could be more convenient than that.
Therefore, on the surface, everything Fangzheng did was to steal the main character's scenes and replace him to complete the task of the world's will. But in fact, there was a hidden poison in this. Just like a Trojan Horse, if the world really swallowed this thing, the power of life and death in this world would be completely in Fangzheng's hands.
As for how to create this "universal flight magic", it was not difficult for Fangzheng. It was not that there was no flight magic in this world. For example, many of the users of ancient magic could fly in the sky like a magical girl, but the problem was that it was a unique power that belonged to them. It was not universal and could not be taught to others, so it did not meet the requirement of "universal use".
As for the so-called magic in this world, Fangzheng had done some research. He found that although this thing was called magic, it was essentially the same thing as the superpowers of the students in the city. According to the setting of this world, magic was an operation that changed the situation itself. To put it bluntly, it was like the superpowers of the students in the city, overwriting the "objective reality" with "personal reality".
The so-called CAD, or magic tool, was actually a kind of external automatic calculation device. Mages would program a program called "magic" into it, then inject the power in their bodies to activate the program to activate the magic.
Just by looking at it, one could see how complicated this system was. According to this magic system, if humans wanted to create universal flight magic, it was equivalent to constantly overwriting the "objective reality" with the "personal reality" of "flight". In addition, they also needed to estimate the required angle and speed of flight, which made it very troublesome for mages to fly. Mages were, after all, human beings. It was fine if they could multitask, but multitask was too much for them ….
That was why the problem of universal flight magic had not been successfully solved so far.
But from Fangzheng's point of view, this method was simply too stupid. The method used by the magicians in this world, to put it bluntly, was like trying to cross a river, then desperately chopping down trees to build a bridge, trying to cover the entire river with wood, and then walking across. Wasn't this retarded?
Why humans could stand at the top of the food chain was because of inventions and tools!
Would it be faster if you cut down trees to cover the river? Or would it be faster if you made a boat and rowed across the river? If I'm bored, maybe I don't even need a paddle. I can just build an engine, right?
But although Fangzheng had an idea, he was not in a hurry. After all, redecorating the place would take time. So, Fangzheng lived his life step by step every day. At the same time, he did not forget to inspect the place as a disciplinary committee member.
Perhaps it was because of the incident on the first day of the Persuasion Week, but after that, almost everyone wherever Fangzheng went was as obedient as a sheep. After all, Fangzheng was a ruthless person who took down the entire swordsmanship club without even lifting a finger. And according to the witnesses, the swordsmanship club students were still preparing to cast magic, but Fangzheng just roared angrily and made them all fall to the ground.
This kind of power was completely beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Moreover, Fangzheng used his actions to show that he was not a person who would show mercy. So, the other clubs immediately gave up on their original violent methods and obediently followed his instructions.
After all, according to rumors, most of the swordsmanship club members needed to rest for a period of time, which also meant that the swordsmanship club had no combat strength. The other clubs recruited people to increase their combat strength, not to suffer a double loss. Not only did they not get the students, but they also suffered heavy losses. That would be a huge loss.
And because of this, the following Persuasion Week ended peacefully and smoothly.
Even Mayumi Shichikusa couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"If only every year's Persuasion Week could end as smoothly as this year.
So sometimes, it's important to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. "
Fangzheng spoke nonchalantly, completely unaware that he was the core of the problem. And hearing his words, the others could only smile bitterly. Just as Fangzheng had said, although it was revealed that most of the members of the swordsmanship club had been defeated on the first day and had even been punished for it, causing the disciplinary committee chairman, Watanabe Mori, and the student council president, Mayumi Shichinao, to be extremely busy, as though to compensate for their hard work, the next few days were extremely peaceful. The club members no longer used forceful methods when trying to rope in the freshmen, and there were very few conflicts.
From a certain aspect, it was all thanks to Fangzheng's forceful method of killing the chicken to warn the monkeys.
However, apart from Fangzheng, no one else was capable of doing so.
"No matter what, the Persuasion Week is over, and everyone can finally stop worrying. As students, our priority is to focus on our studies."
Mayumi Shichikusa clapped her hands and forcefully changed the topic. She then looked at Fangzheng.
"So … Mr. Haruka, about your activity room …"
"It's almost ready. It'll probably take another two or three days."
Fangzheng looked at the information in his hand and replied casually.
"In fact, there's already a rumor in the school."
Ryuto Ichihara chimed in.
"Although that place is quite far from the school area, some people still saw signs of construction there, and some people even came to the student council to ask …"
"Don't worry about such trivial matters."
Fangzheng seemed very calm.
"If anyone comes to ask, just tell them that this is the council's decision."
"Okay, I'll think about it, but you have to be careful. Maybe some curious students will go there and cause trouble."
"Haha."
Hearing this, Fangzheng grinned and chuckled.
"As long as they can get in."
"…"
Although Fangzheng's words were also full of danger, the girls in the student council had learned not to care about such trivial matters. After all, it was useless to care about such trivial matters.
After finishing his work in the student council, Fangzheng left the student council room. But just as he was about to pack up and go back to sleep, a figure appeared in the corridor and blocked his way.
"Hello, Mr. Haruka."
"You are …"
Looking at the girl in front of him, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows. She had a beautiful face, a long ponytail, and was wearing the uniform of the second division. If he remembered correctly, she was the member of the kendo club who caused a commotion on the first day of the Persuasion Week — what was her name again?
"I'm Sayaka Ninsei from the second year's E class. Thank you for your help. I've been wanting to find a time to thank you."
"You're welcome. It's just my duty as a member of the disciplinary committee."
Fangzheng shrugged.
"If it was just a duel of swordsmanship, I would pretend that I didn't see it. But since the other party violated the rule of not using magic on people, I had no choice but to take action. You don't have to thank me."
"Although you said that, I still have to thank you."
Hearing Fangzheng's reply, Sayaka smiled.
"Do you have time now? Can you accompany me? "
"Okay …"
Hearing the invitation, Fangzheng thought for a while.
Anyway, he was going home to watch TV and sleep. The person in front of him was a very beautiful girl. She seemed to have a good personality, a good figure, and a pretty face. Moreover, it was after school …
"Of course."
Fangzheng decisively made a decision.
Soon, under Sayaka's guidance, the two arrived at a cafe not far from the school. After ordering a drink, Sayaka looked at Fangzheng and spoke again.
"Umm … Thank you again. It was all thanks to you last week.
"You're welcome … So, I believe Senpai Ninsei didn't ask me to come here just to invite me for a cup of coffee, right?"
"… You saw through me."
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Sayaka smiled bitterly, then her expression suddenly turned serious.
"I'll get straight to the point. I hope you can support us."
"What are you talking about?"
Fangzheng drank a mouthful of coffee and looked at Sayaka with interest. The latter stared back at him and said.
The latter stared back at him and said, "In a magic high school, grades in magic are the highest priority. But don't you think it's wrong to decide everything based on that alone? "
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Fangzheng pricked up his brows, but Sayaka continued.
"Second year students can't receive practical magic guidance. There's nothing we can do about it. It's just because we're not strong enough. Just because we can't use magic well, we have to look down on my swordsmanship. I can't stand being ignored. I won't allow myself to be rejected just because of magic. "
Saying until here, Sayaka clenched the cup in her hand.
"So, we've decided to establish a non-magic competition club alliance. We plan to establish a different club alliance this year to express our thoughts to the school. We want to tell the school that magic isn't everything we have. For this, we hope you can lend us a hand, Mr. Harukino. "
"But why me? Like you said, this is what you second year students think, right? I'm a first year student. Is it okay for me to join? "
"Of course. We know very well that although you're a first year student, you don't discriminate against second year students like others do. Not only that, we also heard what you said at the opening ceremony. Aren't you supporting us?"
"I see."
Upon hearing this, Fangzheng nodded.
"I understand what you mean, Senpai Kensei. But unfortunately, I don't think the same way as you."
"… Huh?"
"Let me ask you a question."
Fangzheng stared at Sayaka and asked with a smile.
"What's the name of this school?"
"… The First High School Affiliated to the National University of Magic."
"That's right."
Fangzheng snapped his fingers.
"This is a magic university, so of course we have to base our decisions on magic. If a school that trains mages doesn't use magic to determine their results, then what do they use? Is it their appearance? Or their cooking? With all due respect, Senpai Kensei, maybe magic isn't everything to you, but to this school, magic is everything. If you're not satisfied with this, you can choose to transfer schools. "
With that said, Fangzheng snorted. He had seen such thoughts in the past. Those that called for things like "a single test determining your entire life isn't fair enough" and "a student's value isn't just in their results" would always resonate with many students.
Of course, these words sounded reasonable, but in reality?
One test to determine your whole life isn't fair, but isn't it even more unfair to determine it through other means?
The value of a student isn't just in their results, but at least their results are the standard to judge a student's value.
If you don't use your results to judge, what else do you want to judge? Happy education?
"Senpai's kendo department is the same. If a member came to you and said that you shouldn't judge them by their kendo, but by their painting or literature, what would you think?"
"This … .can …."
"Senpai, let me ask you another question. Even if you tell your opinion to the school, what's your goal? What kind of result do you want to achieve? "
"…"
Faced with Fangzheng's question, this time, Sayaka fell completely silent.
"I-I haven't thought about it yet."
"I think so too."
Fangzheng wasn't surprised when he heard Sayaka Ren's answer. After all, he could tell that the beautiful girl in front of him had probably been muddled by some public intellectual's chicken soup for the soul.
"Then, please go back and think about this question."
With that said, Fangzheng stood up.
"Then, we'll discuss the next question."
