Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 116
Chapter 116
– But that method requires your full cooperation.
“……”
“……”
Lee Han succeeded in managing his expression, but the students of the Black Turtle Tower looked suspicious.
In the first place, it was a school where even the professors could not be trusted.
I couldn’t believe that he was a senior.
‘You’re not betraying me after saying that, right?’
‘Doesn’t that senior belong to the Blue Dragon Tower or the White Tiger Tower?’
-…freshmen. Doubting me right now is… Damn it! It’s like a fucking school. okay! I’d be suspicious Because it would be like me too. But are you going to distrust each other after coming all the way here!? And if you don’t believe me, how are you going to get out of here!
“That is correct.”
Lee Han appeased the Black Turtle Tower students.
Even though this faceless senior was suspicious, he had no other choice as he was now trapped in the kettle kitchen by the warehouse keeper’s magic.
Either you get caught after being locked up, or you listen to the methods of your seniors.
“Let’s just listen.”
-First of all, you have to give me some of those beer candies you made.
“……”
Salcho’s eyes changed to look at a suspicious swindler, but he still reached into his pocket and pulled out a beer can.
Rather than trusting the other person, it was because he believed in Lee Han’s words.
-I’m not trying to take your freshman’s.
‘It’s getting more and more suspicious…’
-You know, I used too much magic to come here today. I have almost no magic power left. I need to recover.
‘ah. I guess so.’
Lee Han understood what the other person said.
Unlike Lee Han, who never felt lack of magic in his life, other wizards often lacked magic when they used magic.
This faceless senior has been using magic several times from the classroom to the kitchen.
It wasn’t strange even if his mana gradually depleted.
Little by little,
the beer candies slowly disappeared into the air.
Lee Han suddenly became curious.
“But how are you maintaining your invisible magic when you don’t have enough mana?”
– It’s not me.
‘…Skull Principal?!’
It was a calm handwriting, but for some reason Lee Han could feel the senior’s fear.
Could it be…
‘Could it be that the Headmaster of Skeleton cast a spell to prevent contact with the seniors?’
He wanted to shout why he was doing that, but Lee Han didn’t.
Now, Lee Han began to accept this magic school itself.
‘hmm. I used to be that kind of person. If I’m surprised, I’m the only one who loses.’
-done. Stay tuned.
Seeing how much his mana had recovered, the senior headed forward.
The magic the warehouse keeper used on the kitchen door was space distortion magic.
The name sounded simple, but it was never simple from the point of view of breaking through this.
At least three levels of magic were required.
First, < enhance the senses >.
The 2nd circle magic < Enhance Sense > was popular among warriors among endowment magic.
Even a dull and sluggish warrior with a single bet shows reflexes as nimble as a swallow filled with water.
Not only that, but thanks to the strengthened senses such as sight and hearing, there is a lot of information that can be captured in a chaotic battlefield.
Spatial magic is basically magic that distorts the five senses, so I had to strengthen it at least this much to deal with it.
And next was < Spatial Perception >.
< Spatial Awareness > was a Circle 1 magic, but looking at its level of difficulty, it was more difficult than the Circle 2 magic, < Enhance Sense >.
It was because of the difficulty of space magic.
This < spatial awareness > played the role of accurately putting the space near the wizard in his head.
It was on a different level from simply looking at it with your eyes and calculating it by guessing.
What objects are located near you and what exactly is the distance between them.
Usually, this magic was used as a secondary aid by battle mages who had a lot to deal with fast enemies, but even when dealing with space magic, this magic was essential.
If you don’t even recognize it, you can’t find a solution.
Finally, I needed a magic with moderate destructive power.
No matter what kind of magic it was, it only needed destructive power. You have to find the weak part of the distorted space and pierce it to get out.
‘My magic has been restored.’
The old man took a deep breath.
As a third-year student carrying the symbol of pure silver, I had to show myself properly in front of the freshmen.
…Above all, it’s pretty disgusting that some of them are suspicious of me.
“Senses, be strengthened. Be aware of space. Fire, take the form of an arrow and fly away!”
The spell was quickly memorized and the magic cast.
My senses were strengthened and the space around me became informationalized and entered my head.
And the flame arrow pierced a point in the air.
“!”
“and…!”
Even the suspicious Black Turtle Tower students admired the flame arrow.
After all, a senior is a senior!
As if burning the surroundings, the burning flames shot out while maintaining the shape of sharp arrows.
If you were a freshman, you could see how difficult that magic was.
To be able to hold the fire element in the form of an arrow and fire it at the same time.
‘The shape retention is incomplete and the control seems to be lost a bit when firing.’
…Except Lee Han.
Lee Han thought to himself and was startled.
‘no. Aren’t I thinking like Professor Voladi?’
What’s the big deal if the shape is a bit imperfect and the control is momentarily lost?
There was no problem with using magic.
A perfectionist like Professor Volardy would point out every single thing…
Lee Han reflected on the fact that he was thinking like Professor Volardy.
‘You don’t have to obsess over perfection. After that, I might end up like Professor Voladi.’
Pak!
The fire arrows collided and burned away.
The Black Turtle Tower students waited in admiration.
‘When can I leave?’
‘Is it now?’
-Sal…
“??”
-…Try it…
“……”
“……”
The students realized that their senior had failed at the crooked writing on the paper.
* * *
Even when the senior asked to be saved, there was nothing the invisible freshmen could do.
After a while, the letter was engraved again, as if the senior had come to his senses.
-…sorry. It looked ugly.
“What happened?”
– Failed.
“Mac…”
“?”
When one of the Black Turtle Tower students next to him opened his mouth, Lee Han was puzzled.
What are you going to say?
“The beer candy thief…!”
“……”
-No! I must have failed on purpose!!
The senior desperately explained whether he did not want to be remembered as a senior who ate beer candies and splattered.
There were two reasons for the failure.
One was that the range of space distortion magic was wider and stronger than expected, so mana was excessively consumed for < space awareness >.
And one of the reasons was that the space distortion magic was woven more solidly than expected. It seemed that the storage keeper had injected more mana than usual to make it difficult to penetrate.
Thanks to that, even though I fired a flame arrow, it couldn’t penetrate and bounced off.
“So… you only ate our beer candies and failed to escape…”
Salko said in a grave voice. If it wasn’t for the principal’s magic, the senior would want to grab a fight with the freshman by the collar.
-These… incompetent bastards… without knowing how difficult that magic is…
“Senior. Just tell me about < spatial awareness >.”
Lee Han, who was listening, said.
After listening to the detailed explanation, it didn’t seem so impossible.
The sense-enhancing magic is < Gonadaltes's Agile Steps >.
The magic required for penetration is < Gonadaltes' Sharp Hand >.
It seemed that Lee Han could give it a try if he learned only < Spatial Awareness >.
It’s a 1st circle magic, so if you’re lucky, you might be able to learn it right away.
-freshman. You really…
The senior was about to say, ‘Do you think it makes sense that a first grader learns space magic on the spot’, but he hesitated.
First of all, it’s not something that the person who has failed and is in a mess now…
I wanted to hear something from that freshman’s mouth, ‘I think this is impossible’.
-good night. I’ll write in as much detail as possible.
While writing, the senior suddenly became worried.
…What if this freshman succeeds in this spell as well?
* * *
An hour later.
Lee Han and the others left the basement kitchen and gathered in the moonlit front yard of the main building.
Lee Han spoke sincerely to the paper floating in the air.
“senior. thank you You seem to be teaching me better than my professors.”
“Oh…”
“I guess seniors are different.”
At Lee Han’s words, the other Black Turtle Tower students also thought so.
Seeing Wodanaz doing that, it was clear that the senior had an extraordinary skill in teaching magic.
Maybe that senpai was a theory student who was better at teaching magic than using magic.
‘……’
It was a shame that the freshmen couldn’t see their faces.
The senior covered his face with both hands, sat down on a nearby rock, and sighed deeply.
‘I learned magic in vain…’
I was proud that I was quite good among my graders…
Today, that pride was completely shattered.
Even for newcomers who are seeing it for the first time!
If I told my other friends in the tower exactly what I saw today, no one would believe me.
Maybe…
-I was hungry today, so I went to the kitchen to steal something, and a freshman taught me < Fahite's Lesser Illusion >, so I learned it at once. It was so amazing that he taught me < Spatial Awareness >, right? After learning that all at once, he recognizes the space distortion magic used by the warehouse keeper at once and breaks through.
-Did you go to the kitchen and have a drink?
-Didn’t you get caught by the principal and bewitched?
-Rather than that, can you pierce space distortion magic with < Spatial Awareness >? Maybe you need other things too?
-ah. It’s… That freshman… That… Maybe I’m mistaken, but it looks like the principal used a spell he used before…?
-…You’re wrong. How does a freshman use the principal’s magic?
-From my point of view, that freshman could be a transformed principal. hey. be careful. The principal can come and take you to the punishment room within this week. Didn’t you say something strange?
– I told you not to contact the freshman in the first place!
…the same conversation will come and go.
“senior? Are you there?”
“Aren’t you already gone?”
“I guess he just left because he said everything he had to say. You look great.”
-I haven’t left yet…
The senior got up and stood up.
It was really shocking, but all the students entering this magic school were used to accepting the shocking reality.
It was hard to accept that the freshman was better at magic than he or his other friends… but
neither the magic school nor the skeleton headmaster were particularly easy to accept.
Let’s accept!
– Thank you for today.
“no. Thanks for teaching me well.”
‘Who are you kidding?’
Even Lee Han’s sincere gratitude sounded like teasing to the current senior.
-freshman. Originally, people who met at night at this school did not ask for their names or families. You can be dragged along when you are caught in the punishment room.
“……”
Lee Han was at a loss for words because of the fact that it was so realistic.
– But I really want to know your name. Even if I get caught in the punishment room, I’ll risk my honor and keep the secret.
The senior wrote seriously.
I was really very curious.
What the hell are you doing… Or is it a freshman?
Lee Han thought.
‘This senior is deaf or lacks interest in others.’
Earlier, the Black Turtle Tower friends kept wordanaz wordanaz, but you didn’t know that.
The students of the Black Turtle Tower also looked bewildered.
But the senior also had a reason.
Unlike the freshmen, the seniors were constantly paying attention to the outside of the hallway.
Besides, that monstrous freshman drove me half crazy!
Lee Han made a decision after thinking about it.
Seeing him say that, it seemed like he wouldn’t inform the Headmaster Skeleton.
‘It’s okay if I tell you.’
-First of all, I should tell you. I am the blaster of the Moradi family.
“……”
“…I am called Gainando.”
“…!!!”
