Master

Shishou (師匠)

Rudeus reminisces about his past life, when he was expelled from home and was hit by the truck that killed him while attempting to save some teenagers. He spends the next months training magic with Roxy until the day of his five-year-old birthday party, when Roxy declares that she has nothing more to teach him and will hold his graduation exam. The next day, Rudeus leaves his home for the first time accompanied by Roxy. He gets distressed over his past trauma, when he was severely bullied by his classmates in school that led to him becoming a recluse, but he ends up overcoming it once he realizes how Roxy has blended well with the villagers, despite all the prejudice she usually suffers due to her demon origin. In the exam, Rudeus manages to summon a massive thunderstorm and Roxy declares that he passed. Roxy then departs to continue her journey and Rudeus thanks her for everything she has done for him.
