Yep, she would be sticking right next to Selina during the rest of the lesson.

Checking the board again, Kurumi noticed an obvious pattern with their materials: a shield, armor, and a hard hat. Those were all defensive items, but perhaps when combined could create something much more.

S-S-Selina, do you know any Latin words that could combine all three of our objects to create a sort of robot? Well, not a real robot, but looking at what we have, it seems as though if we transfigured things properly we could create an iron giant.
Selina heard Kurumi beckon to her and she thought hard about her request. She knew from the top of her head the word for iron it was ferrus. However, her request for robot would be hard being that Latin was a language established before technology so there were no words dealing with technology in Latin. But she had an idea, "Okay, well, the Latin word for iron is ferrus, but there is no Latin word for robot because well Ancient Rome had no robots. But we could say giant, which is gigas. So you could say Gigantis Ferrum."
