Magical Warfare (魔法戦争)

In November, a mysterious new building appeared on campus,

conjured through Illusion Magic.

This is where the school-wide Ancestral Magic exam would be held.

School Director Shijou had decided that,

based on our exam performance,

she would give us a chance to recover Mui's older brother.

I want to give Mui the strength she needs to get her older brother back.

We shall now commence the Evasive Magic portion

of the school-wide Ancestral Magic exam.

This city was created with Illusion Magic.

The object of this test is to try to reach that building in the distance.

That's it. Now, start!

Come, come. The sooner you start, the better.

You will encounter various obstacles along the way,

so use your Evasive Magic to get past them.

If you are injured,

you will be compulsorily teleported to our first aid tents.

That will be counted as withdrawal

from the remainder of the exam.

Obstacles? I wonder what kind.

What the?

What is that?!

Magical Warfare

Magic Tests and Winter Vacation

I think I'm going the right way.

That's...

It couldn't be!

Hey!

What?

You're Oigami, aren't you?

Why are you here?!

To take the Evasive Magic exam, obviously.

Who the heck are you, anyway?

Nanase Takeshi...

Nanase?

So, what do you want from me?

You don't remember?

Remember what?

What do you mean what?

Why is a Trailer like you here?!

Huh?! Who's a Trailer?!

Look, I don't know if you're mistaking me for someone else,

but if you don't get lost now, I'll send you flying myself.

What's going on?

Nanase Takeshi?

Has it begun, Hitouji-sensei?

Yes, Director Shijou.

Well, well.

It seems we have some students learning the hard way again this year.

Last year, there were so many injured students,

Hyoudou-sensei had her hands full.

Try to keep the number down this year, will you?

Understood.

By the way, Nanase-kun had a

bit of a shock running into Oigami just now.

How did Oigami react?

He didn't recognize him at all, of course.

After all, his memories have been rewritten.

To win this war, we need every last magician we can get on our side.

Now then, I'd better head off to observe the other levels.

The exam was conducted on multiple levels of the town.

Level 1 was for Corporeal Magic.

What is this?

Another dead-end?

I've had it! Where am I?!

What does this even have to do with magic?!

Level 2 was for Destructive Magic.

Stay away from me, jerks!

Level 5 held the Acceleration Magic exam.

That makes fourteen!

And level 4 was for Evasive Magic.

Now then, shall we start as well?

Show us just how powerful Twilight is.

What?

Forced removal?!

What's going on?

Black Magic?!

Float!

What's going on?

Idiot!

Outrider!

Don't sit there spacing out!

Have we met somewhere before?

Why are you here?!

What's your name?

Isoshima Kurumi...

Guess I don't know you after all.

You're Oigami, aren't you?

The one who was chasing Mui?

Mui? ...Mui?

Aiba Mui! You fought with Takeshi, didn't you?

Takeshi?

You mean Nanase Takeshi?

Damn. Looks like I got hit.

Guess I'm being compulsorily removed.

Wait a sec!

Isoshima!

What the heck's happening here?

Ida-kun...

I guess this level will eventually vanish, too.

But thank goodness you're all okay.

What on earth happened here?

I have no idea.

It was pretty freaky when the floor just suddenly vanished, huh?

Is something wrong, Isoshima?

Oigami was here.

I saw him, too!

Oigami Takao? Here?!

But he didn't seem to remember me.

Me, neither.

Meaning, his memories have been...

Mui?

For now, we should focus on reaching the goal.

We should be able to get out from here.

Yeah.

You're right.

The goal's up ahead!

Right.

We're practically home free now!

It's strong!

Takeshi!

Kurumi, get back!

Liberate!

Full Meteor!

What? It didn't work?!

That thing is strengthened by magic!

All right, then! I'll handle this!

Ida!

Hey, wait...

I told you to wait!

If I had a little more time...

Ida, give "that thing" to me!

That's right! We've still got that!

I had it ready just in case something like this happened!

Let's do this, Nanase!

Our Super Magnum-class Ultra Bomber Twin Attack!

Idiot! Where are you throwing it?!

Damn... I blew it...

Mui! Can you distract it?

Takeshi-kun...

Got it! I'll give it a shot!

I'll help, too!

Crap! I'll have to handle this on my own...

Hey! This way!

You big, useless hunk of junk!

No way!

Oh, no!

Ida-kun!

S-Someone get me outta here!

Union! Blast Fog!

Takeshi...

Thank goodness you're okay.

Good grief.

A playing card?

That's...

The Twilight I knew so well back then was not like this.

What's more...

Enough. That's it for today.

I won't allow anyone else to have Twilight.

It belongs to me.

Are you all right, Momo-tan?

I knew the Trailers had infiltrated us,
