Kireis do bad when adding art from other artists in chapters. They should add only Abe-sensei's art. For the rest, those who want it can find it in the internet.
For idiots: this is my personal opinion
@Wolvenworks@Broken25 Well, either you think that a requirement of being a first class mage is knowing a long died out magic of a long extinct bird catching clan, or the examiners are trying to prove some point - probably that it's not always necessary or even appropriate to use magic. Fern, being a girl who grew up in the country, would know this instinctively about the normal way to catch a bird. We're following the doings of a super-mage though, who can solve even non-magic problems with magic. At least that's my guess. I definitely look forward to finding out though. This manga is the highlight of my Tuesdays.
AHH, SHIT.
I was on a binge and accidentally caught up on the translated chapters.
Here's hoping more pop out quickly - this series is amazingly intriguing.
