Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 200
Chapter 200
“You promised?”
Lee Han approached the door, thinking about what reward would be good.
As expected of Professor Verdus, Artifacts were the most useful.
‘Which artifact would be good?’
It rattles –
“Wait. professor. The door won’t open.”
“That’s right! It’s magically locked.”
“yes?”
Lee Han hesitated.
Did the Headmaster Skeleton tell Lee Han to open the door that was locked with magic?
“Uh… Professor, are you going to dispel the magic?”
“You have to unlock it. You can’t use magic in here.”
“……”
Lee Han didn’t know where to start.
“for a moment. How did you send the paper bird?”
“I hung it up in the studio in advance so that if I don’t come back by evening, it will fly away.”
‘If that’s the case, you can just ask another professor…’
Even if students are being watched, aren’t they other professors?
Once again, Professor Verdus’ human relationship was guessed.
Seriously, did you let a freshman you just met fly away!
“professor. I’m sorry, but I’m not good enough to dispel the principal’s magic.”
Although he was periodically taught by Professor Kirmin Ku and separately taught by Valdororn, the genius wizard of Philone Village, Lee Han was still not very confident in his fantasy magic.
Illusion magic required more experience than other fields. With this level of experience, it was difficult to go anywhere confidently.
“And if you need an additional magic to keep the headmaster from going out himself, isn’t there another trap magic around here?”
It was an excuse, but there was some truth to it.
If the skeleton headmaster had just pretended to lock it up for procedural reasons, Lee Han would have opened it without worrying too much, but if he had put the spell with sincerity like this, there was a high possibility that there would be other traps nearby.
“There is no other magic around. I saw it while I was being dragged.”
‘Tsk.’
Lee Han blamed the skull principal for not completely covering Professor Verdus’ eyes.
“And dispelling magic is possible even if you don’t have any skills. Not very difficult. blow it up with force You know how to fly, right?”
“professor. That is quite a skill.”
Now I have learned this too. When it is said that a commonly applied magic is ‘blowed away by force’, it is rare that it is really blown away by force.
As the level of magic increased, the structure became more complex and solid, so it did not shake or break just by pouring it with force.
You have to understand its structure, identify its vulnerabilities, and hit it with force to break it with force.
Blowing away by force also had a fairly sophisticated technique hidden within it.
‘Lim Valdororn probably didn’t tell me out of consideration for me.’
Baldororn didn’t explain that part. I just told you how to hit the mana.
It was probably because he recognized Lee Han’s skill and explained it to a beginner’s level.
At the beginner level, you don’t need to understand that kind of understanding.
“The principal’s spell is still difficult for me to figure out…”
“No. Just give it a try.”
Professor Verdus ignored Lee Han’s words with the back of his ears.
He thought that because he could grasp the structure of the magic at a glance and stab it with force, so Lee Han could too.
Lee Han was dumbfounded.
‘Are you a professor?’
“All right.”
Lee Han decided that it would be better to show him once and then say no, rather than forcibly persuading Professor Verdus.
‘It’s filthy complicated.’
Lee Han couldn’t even guess what kind of magic the headmaster had cast.
Various magics were intricately intertwined and acted as a strong lock.
It’s not like the Skeleton Principal put the lock on with all his power…
I felt once again how good a wizard the Skeleton Principal was.
Boom!!!
Just as he had learned from Baldur Orn, Lee Han recklessly exploded his magic and crashed into it.
It was an ignorant way to bump into something without understanding what it was like.
“……”
But the magic was broken.
rattle!
“You said it was me. right?”
Professor Verdus came out and patted Lee Han on the back as if he knew it.
Lee Han was dumbfounded.
‘No, why did you hang it so weakly?’
It seemed that he only focused on the complexity of magic and paid less attention to durability.
Lee Han was disappointed with the skeleton principal
. Chiiik!
At that moment, a stigma floated above Professor Verdus’s head with a sudden blazing sound.
Professor Verdus exclaimed in fright.
“It’s a big deal!”
“What?!”
“It’s a trap! Gonadaltes set a trap for me, not the outside!”
“Why didn’t you notice that?!”
“Because I secretly hung it up!”
Professor Verdus shook his head as he watched the stigma dwindle.
As soon as this stigma burned, it was a tracking magic that sent a summoned beast to Professor Verdus’ location.
If Professor Verdus does whatever it takes to get out first, the Headmaster Skeleton will give him a bad taste!
It was unreasonable to release it with an immature body.
“I can’t! Go get another professor!”
“Who are you?”
“I don’t know! You deserve to release this… Professor Garcia!”
“Where are you… I see!”
Lee Han moved at once.
It was for two reasons.
No matter who we brought in first, even if we decided later, moving first could buy time.
And in case of failure a second time, it was better to stay away from Professor Verdus.
…because it only took one person to be defeated by the summoned beast.
* * *
As soon as he got out of the forest, Lee Han encountered an unexpected opponent.
…that was Professor Voladi.
“A night walk is good for improving your skills. Well chosen.”
“thank you…?”
It was a bit strange to say to a student who sneaked out of the tower at night, but Lee Han expressed his gratitude.
Because it’s better than being angry.
Professor Voladi stared Lee Han up and down. Lee Han suddenly became anxious.
‘You must’ve noticed what I was doing, right?’
“Have you dispelled the magic?”
“yes? yes.”
“It looks like you’ve dispelled a fairly high level of magic.”
Lee Han was surprised by Professor Voladi’s ability to determine the level only by the reverberation of magic power.
You’ll notice this.
“Where did you unlock it?”
“I happened to take a walk in the woods…”
“Let me guide you.”
“yes?”
“Let me guide you.”
There was a high possibility that there would be a strong enemy in a place with that level of magic.
Professor Voladi was thinking of pointing it out so that his student would not miss it.
“professor. I looked and there was nothing special…”
“Did you bring the professor?!”
Unable to wait, Professor Verdus ran out from the inside.
Lee Han shouted while managing his expression.
“Professor Verdus! What are you doing here?!”
“What are you talking about? Earlier…”
“What a wonderful coincidence! really. This is Professor Bagreg!”
Professor Voladi nodded. Professor Verdus also nodded.
Lee Han shuddered at the meeting of the two professors who seemed to have no friends.
‘no. I’m rather glad The lies won’t get caught.’
“Is this the headmaster’s brand?”
Professor Voladi recognized the stigma magic at once. Professor Verdus nodded.
“okay! Release me!”
“It’s just fine.”
“yes?”
Professor Voladi cast a spell on Lee Han.
His senses became sharper and more sensitive, and at the same time, unfounded confidence in the cold element rose.
“Get ready.”
“…professor? You don’t want to fight, do you?”
“right.”
“Could Professor Verdus be hurt?”
At Lee Han’s words, Professor Voladi gave a slightly puzzled look, as if asking, ‘Why should I care about that?’
Lee Han was a student of Professor Boladi, but Professor Verdus was nothing.
Whether you search or not…
“You want me to release it quickly?!”
“professor. I’m not trying to avoid a fight. However, Professor Verdus is also my teacher, and if he gets hurt, my heart will really break…”
“I understand.”
Professor Voladi flicked his wand. Professor Verdus flew away and was tied to a tree.
Professor Verdus, who was in a mess due to being beaten by the skeleton headmaster, couldn’t even resist properly.
“Eup-up-up!”
“If you tie it up like that, it won’t hurt.”
“…There are times when I wonder if the professor really is a genius.”
“thanks.”
Professor Voladi smiled faintly at Lee Han’s praise.
Lee Han vowed never to praise him again.
“This is a rare opportunity. The principal’s summons have strong fighting abilities.”
“Yes… I know.”
Lee Han, who had been forcibly bumped into a few times, nodded.
Of course, I didn’t agree that it was a rare opportunity.
The chance of getting hit by lightning falling from the sky was low, but I wouldn’t call it a rare opportunity.
It’s just…
‘Don’t you say you’re filthy unlucky?’
In that respect, the current situation of meeting Professor Voladi and forcibly confronting the headmaster’s summons was filthy unlucky.
Kwajik!
Eventually, all the stigmas were burned and a dimensional portal opened above Professor Verdus’s head.
-I have come to imprison you again with the promise with the contractor. do not resent me!
As soon as he finished speaking, Professor Voladi pierced four ice spears into the limbs of the summoned demon.
Unable to respond to the high speed, the demon screamed in pain.
“Deal with it.”
Professor Voladi kindly handed over the opportunity to Lee Han.
Having greatly weakened the demon, Lee Han was now a suitable opponent to gain experience.
Of course, it didn’t look like that to Lee Han’s eyes.
In Lee Han’s eyes, it just looked like a mighty demon getting extremely angry after being hit by four ice spears.
-Gonadaltes! Did you trick me!
No wonder the devil was angry, as he had come to lock up a fugitive from prison and had been beaten so badly by some crazy wizard.
Lee Han apologized.
“sorry!”
But apologizing didn’t necessarily mean not attacking. Lee Han apologized and attacked at the same time.
…Looking at the expression on the devil’s face, he was too angry to apologize.
“Are you distracting?”
“no!”
Denying Professor Voladi’s question, Han Lee cast his magic again.
The demon whose limbs were sealed by an ice spear poured fire and magic from its mouth and eyes.
– To think that a young student is already trying to trick the devil!
“sorry!”
-Stop attacking if you’re sorry, you disgusting bastard!
“Rush, the thunderbolt of Perkuntra!”
A condensed bolt of lightning pierced the demon’s chest and struck.
The demon vomited black blood from its mouth. Because his limbs were tied, he couldn’t properly defend himself.
‘A young human…!’
The current situation was also confusing, but the other human made the demon even more confused.
Offensive, evasive, and judgmental skills unlike those of a young student.
‘How is that?!’
In fact, it was natural for the devil to be flustered.
Usually, young students couldn’t use < Spatial Awareness >, < Gonadaltes' Dark Vision >, < Gonadaltes's Agile Steps >, etc. with magic.
“You are too slow.”
Professor Voladi said to the demon.
Originally, I wanted to push Lee Han to the edge, but the attack was too monotonous and obvious.
Thanks to this, Lee Han was skillfully reducing the devil’s stamina without falling into any danger.
If we go on like this, we will definitely win.
– Shut up!
Professor Voladi didn’t finish with words. He swung his staff and made the ice spear disappear.
With both arms and legs free, the demon looked at Professor Voladi with a stunned look.
Lee Han also looked at Professor Boladi with a shocked look.
The devil looked at Lee Han and Voladi in succession and then asked Lee Han.
-Are you being threatened by that wizard?
Lee Han thoughtlessly tried to answer “yes,” but then came to his senses.
