## Summary

Edwart gives a formal speech to the students at the Second Royal Academy students concerning Matty casting the barrier over the kingdom. It's thereby the students' job to protect the capital by engaging against the invading monsters and demons. Meanwhile, the remaining students help Matty clear out the dungeon for resources, and Alma and Lurie report that the Demons' presence has been detected. Matty figures that what they were detecting was the demons using a spell called Magiroad and asks that they take care of it.

Following the lead of an unnamed student, they reach their destination and seeing that they have time to prepare before the demons arrive, Alma and Lurie, do so. Recalling Matty's instructions to fight against the demons, by using the special metal arrows and to imbue them with whatever spell is decided to be best. Despite, Lurie's hesitance, Matty has faith in her, and Lurie understands. After imbuing the arrows with her magic, Lurie gives them to Alma. The unnamed student who watched the entire procedure was left astounded by how Lurie managed to create her own casting circle. Just then, a single demon exits from the Magiroad portal way and Alma kills it with a single arrow. Another demon then appears and the arrow shot was not enough hence, Lurie finishes it off with her sword. Elated that they managed to successfully complete a dispatch for the first time together, they then sense a surge of energy from the capital.

Returning to Matty, he assures the two that everything is fine and that what they felt wasn't beyond his expectations. Matty goes on to explain that what they felt was a spell more advanced than Magiroad that requires a sacrifice in order to complete. Before the new onslaught of demons arrives, Matty has the two girls head back to the surface and prepare for the arrival of the demons. The two understand and head off back to the surface. Iris then appears and drops off forty boxes of mithril for Matty. Outside, Lurie and Alma meet with Edwart and he informs them that Matty left them an abundance of Magistones. They figure it's for casting circles so Lurie doesn't have to worry about messing up. At that moment, a single demon appears and after assessing the situation, casts a spell at the students there only for it to be blocked by one of Matty's spells that he cast earlier. Under Edwart's orders, a couple of students cast spells that are unable to reach the demon, so Alma shots an arrow at it, which the demon catches and breaks. With Lurie's hands full with enchanting arrows with a complex casting circle, Edwart and the entire student body try to buy time for Lurie by empowering the defensive spell that Matty cast. Finally able to create an embued arrow, Lurie gives it to Alma and she shoots it at the demon who dodges it. However, Alma redirects the arrow's direction and it lands the demon's heart and then some students then cast fireballs at it to finish it off. Their victory over the demon was ephemeral as another demon appears to cast an even more potent spell than the last demon named Berlias cast. Now without any protection from Matty's spell and surrounded by a large number of demons, all hope seems to be lost, but Alma still insists on buying time for Matty's sake. On the other hand, Matty appears and handily defeats all of the demons.

A little later, Matty joins Edwart, Alma, and Lurie who praise him for his successful dispatch and Matty owes the victory to the sword forged by Lurie. Matty then reveals that it finished the barrier and that Iris and the others are preparing the rest. Matty, Alma, and Lurie then go to the barrier crystal area and Matty then inserts a magistone piece into the crystal which erects a barrier around the city. Although the barrier has been cast, Matty warns that it's not over yet as the demons they defeated will empower the dragon vein they encountered before. All of that will cause a larger horde of monsters to appear.

An oncoming stampede of monsters could be seen over the horizon and are dealt with by the combined efforts of Matty's traps laid across the battlefield and the students' barrage of spells. Three giant monsters then appear on the field and Lurie, Alma, and Iris deal with them. A monster known as the void eater appears and starts to devour the remaining monsters around the field and Matty gives Lurie a casting circle to enchant and throw into the monster. The reason why Matty requested that was because, Void Eaters don't provide good materials, therefore, the circle given to Lurie would allow it to evolve in a form that's materialistically suitable. Once the monster's evolution is complete, through the combined efforts of Matty, Iris Lurie, and Alma, they defeat the monster.

Eventually, Matty reports to Edwart that he plans on leaving the academy to search for more Dragon Veins scattered across the land. Despite there not being anything left for him to learn there and not wanting to expel Matty from the academy, Edwart proposes that he stay connected with the academy on a "special scholarship". It's so the academy can flourish greater with all of Matty's achievements under its belt, but also for the kingdom and the academy to offer their aid in a time of need for Matty. After considering the offer, Matty accepts it. The offer is also given to Lurie and Alma who both accept, as does Iris.

When they're all prepared for their journey, the group are seen off by Edwart and their student peers.
