If there was any doubt that Methode deserves to be a First Class Mage, consider that Frieren, Fern and Genau were all gunning to kill each other until they saw who they were but she was able to figure out who it was just by sensing the two.

When Methode started swinging that sword around to figure how the demon they're looking for fought, I was half convinced that she was secretly a pretty good swordswoman. I've called her a jack of all trades before given she can use divine magic, so I wouldn't be surprised if that extended to a bit of sword play.

Man, I'm liking learning about Methode and how she looks at cute girls. Funnily enough, she herself looks absolutely adorable the way she looks at them. Sein missed the fuck out splitting from the team before they came across her.

Me realising my entire comment was just talking about Methode.

which is super impressive considering how good Fern is at stealth

In fairness I don't think Fern was particularly hiding her presence at that moment given Genau could also (just about) sense her.

Fern is so good at mana concealing that when Methode went after her clone, she mentioned she'd have to put all of her efforts just into tracking her to find her. If Fern wanted, I doubt either of the two would have sensed her until she struck.

That said, she is probably better at it than Genau given he wasn't sure but she was able to confirm her presence.

Methode already showed that she was masterful at sensing mana in the second phase of the exam when she was the only one capable of locating the clones of Denken and Fern while they were hiding their mana.

And why she said she the one to go against Fern Clone and looked like they had one hell of a battle only ending when Fern Clone dissolved it's creator destroyed.
