Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 251
Chapter 246
It was so absurd that I was more impressed than angry.
‘This way?’
I didn’t have to convince the students that ‘my school’s magic has these advantages’.
All you have to do is to forcibly abduct students as disciples.
An ingenious solution that will bring you to your knees if you inform Professor Mortum!
“Professor? I have no intention of learning healing magic.”
“I’m already majoring in one, but if I major in two… how can I keep up with you!”
“I’m still struggling to death!”
“……”
The innocent protest of the friends made Lee Han’s heart ache.
Lee Han smiled bitterly.
“All quiet. I will explain for you.”
Professor Garcia stepped in.
“Everyone knows about healing magic, right?”
The students nodded.
healing magic.
Healing magic would be the most familiar magic to the common people of the empire.
There were many things to come in contact with, and there were many uses, so wizards who knew how to use healing magic were respected.
There would be no need to explain how each would be treated when the warlock and the healing wizard visited the village.
Naturally, there were many wizards who wanted to study healing magic professionally.
‘It’s not even black magic, so is there any reason to bring the students by force?’
Most of the Phoenix Tower Priests will try to learn healing magic, and a significant number of White Tiger Tower students will also want to learn healing magic…
“There are too few healing wizards right now.”
The dark elf professor said in a tired, rough voice.
“Then increase the number.”
“???”
Professor Garcia explained before the students got further confused.
Healing magic was a magic that took quite a while for a wizard to do his part.
Unlike other magics, it was difficult to mobilize the wizards they were learning when something was needed as it was related to human life.
In addition, the difficulty of learning magic was complicated and difficult, so even though there were many students who came in to learn magic, the dropout rate was not normal.
“It was a problem because of the lack of healing mages when the plague broke out in the Pesian region last year.”
So, Professor Alcasis of the Lagrinde family, a healing magic professor, asked for permission directly from His Majesty the Emperor and Headmaster Skeleton.
How to solve the problem of low number of healing mages?
It was to increase (even forcibly) the number of students learning.
If the number of students is greatly increased, even if there are many defectors, the overall number of healing wizards will increase.
So today, if we test the students in a simple way like this, if they show any aptitude for healing magic…
“…This is how we give them the opportunity to learn magic. Did you all understand?”
“…Uh… It’s forced, why is it a chance?”
Professor Garcia pretended not to hear.
Sometimes professors can be cowardly.
said Professor Arkassis in a tired, hoarse voice.
“Everyone be quiet. I’m busy, so don’t ask useless questions. Ask only the necessary questions.”
“professor. I’m majoring in summoning magic right now, so healing magic is…”
The voice of one of the students who was asking the necessary question disappeared.
The students all shut up, realizing that the professor’s skill with silent magic is unusual.
“Isn’t that too much?”
“I see…”
‘Isn’t that just average for magic schools?’
Contrary to the students whispering in shock, Lee Han was not shocked.
Just ‘Ah, you’re a professor’?
“What time is it?”
“It’s half past three.”
At Professor Garcia’s answer, Professor Alkasis blinked dry eyes and nodded.
I had to check the time because the schedule was tight even after the lecture.
“What are you going out for this time? Could it be that the Krongdün Guild dispute was discussed earlier?”
Professor Arkassis was too tired to answer. In the blink of an eye, Professor Garcia sighed.
“That… Adventurers fighting among themselves. also in the city. I really can’t forgive you. You won’t have hands, will you be okay?”
“So I’m going to take her to third grade. Water, please.”
“Here you go.”
While Professor Alcasis quickly emptied the bucket at once, Professor Garcia asked.
“To take the 3rd graders…”
“Because taking the 2nd graders isn’t very helpful.”
“…I didn’t ask why you didn’t take the second graders with you.”
Professor Garcia said with a tired expression.
And Lee Han also listened with a tired expression.
‘It’s a formidable hell here too.’
A different kind of hell than the one that Headmaster Skeleton or Professor Voladi or Verdus make.
It wasn’t the professor’s fault.
It was the empire’s fault.
There are many people who get hurt and die, but the number of healing wizards is small, so the work intensity of healing wizards increases enormously.
Hearing that he is taking third-year students with him now…
“Professor. I’m not really interested in healing magic…”
“There are no exceptions.”
“professor. I’m already taking two majors! I have two!!”
“As I said, there are no exceptions. Be quite.”
Professor Arkassis spoke as solid as a rock without the slightest wavering.
Just because he was a professor didn’t mean he wasn’t sorry for the students who weren’t interested in healing magic and had a hard time listening to other magic.
But I couldn’t help it.
More healing mages were needed for the sick in the empire.
Professor Alkasis once again firmly resolved to be heartless.
No excuse would be able to move Professor Arkasis’ heart.
“professor! Here, Lee Han is now black magic, summoning magic, fantasy enchanting, magic, foreknowledge, magic, conversion magic… what else is there?”
Gainando stopped counting after arguing instead and asked Lee Han. Lee Han, embarrassed by his friend, looked away as if he hadn’t heard.
“Anyway, I’m listening to all of this! That’s too much!”
“Do not lie.”
“Really! Ask other professors too!”
“……”
Professor Arkasis looked at Lee Han in disbelief.
Even though Lee Han didn’t do anything wrong, he had to feel that he had done something wrong.
‘Doesn’t anyone who sees it think I’m listening on purpose?’
After biting his lip for a few minutes and contemplating, Professor Alkasis finally spat out.
“…There are no exceptions. Be quite.”
“too bad…!!”
“Stop it.”
Lee Han made Gainando shut his mouth.
‘I should learn the silence curse quickly.’
* * *
Professor Mortum was also a person who coughed a lot (probably because of the tower’s environment), but Professor Arkasis was just as speechless.
While talking, he staggered, coughed as if his mouth was getting dry, and even sat down in a chair to rest for a while, and Professor Garcia, who was worse than he was, took his place.
“I will explain the basics. Are you okay?”
“…Please.”
“ruler. everyone. Did you just connect the planter buds? This sprout is a plant whose breed has been improved to make it easier to respond to mana. So you could heal easily. However, the principles are not very different. Repairing and restoring injured and broken parts in this way is a key branch of healing magic.”
Although they were forced to listen, the students listened surprisingly attentively.
In fact, since healing magic is so popular, the students would have listened quite well even if they hadn’t been forced to listen to it.
‘But adding ten more doesn’t seem to solve the shortage.’
“Of course, this kind of recovery is not the only field of healing magic. Alchemy to analyze various status ailments such as poisoning and prepare the appropriate healing potion. Endowment magic that allows the patient to endure various procedures and visions. Foresight magic to check the prognosis in advance… It is a characteristic of healing magic that you generously learn the magic of other schools if necessary.”
‘Is there no black magic?’
Lee Han tried to say that he was missing black magic, but he held back.
If I asked, it seemed that only students learning black magic would be sad.
“Uh… then do I have to learn all of them?”
one of the students asked with a frightened expression.
Professor Garcia kindly replied.
“Of course not. You only learn when you need to.”
“Ah, as expected… I’m glad!”
Lee Han, who was listening, asked something strange.
“By the way, Professor. Healing mages are few in number, so they have to deal with a lot of patients, so isn’t it not enough to learn everything you just said?”
Professor Garcia pretended not to hear Lee Han’s words.
This is why smart students!
In the meantime, Professor Alkasis, who had regained his strength, stood up.
“I will explain myself. As Professor Garcia just said, the healing mage needs a broad understanding of all directions, not just one direction. Not just magic, but studying other fields as well. Suppose here is a patient with a broken bone. I want to heal this patient’s bones, but if I don’t know the structure of the patient’s bones, can I heal them?”
Professor Alcasis said, pretending to break a rib with his hand.
“Even if it heals, it will heal in a strange way, right? If that’s the case, it’s better not to do it. A healer must know the structure of the body.”
The priests of the Phoenix Tower and the students of the White Tiger Tower listened as if possessed.
It was a natural reaction as there was more interest.
Besides, the structure of the body.
The Priests of the Phoenix Tower and the students of the White Tiger Tower were somewhat familiar with it, so they were confident.
“Bring it in.”
The door opened and two students, looking as tired and exhausted as the professor, entered.
The two seniors just didn’t come in. He dragged a coffin the size of a person behind him.
jump!
Surprisingly, when I opened the door of the coffin, there was a person inside who was tied up.
“chain.”
At the professor’s command, the two seniors untied the prisoner’s chains and removed the muzzle. Then the prisoner protested vehemently.
“Damn wizards! No matter how many people I’ve killed, it’s still like this… Hehe.”
Lee Han was surprised.
It wasn’t because Professor Arkassis had thrust swords into the prisoner’s neck and limbs (actually, that was a little surprising), but because the skill was lightning fast.
The skill of summoning swords out of the air and then grabbing them one by one and inserting them into the prisoner’s body was not an ordinary quick sword.
The students of the White Tiger Tower were also agitated as if they felt that the professor’s swordsmanship was unusual.
‘If I work as a healing mage for a long time, will I become proficient in swordsmanship?’
The prisoner’s body instantly turned pale. The stuck sword absorbed all the blood.
“open it.”
The two seniors opened the prisoner’s chest. Vivid organs were revealed.
thud!
Several students passed out in shock. Professor Alkasis cynically said.
“Wake up. Describe the structure of the human body. listen carefully.”
“Ooh… ooh!”
Kainando was about to throw up. Lee Han quickly cast < Ogonin's Full Satisfaction >.
“Thank you. Lee Han.”
“I… me too. me too!”
* * *
Professor Alcassis had excellent swordsmanship, which dismantled the body so fast that it was invisible, and a deep understanding of the human body structure that supported it, but that did not ease the students’ suffering.
When Professor Alcassis finished the lecture and restored the prisoner, the students were looking like their heads would explode with the secrets and complicated information of a person they hadn’t seen before.
Professor Garcia opened the window and asked.
“Is everyone okay?”
“……”
“……”
The students looked at Professor Garcia with eyes full of betrayal and scars.
Professor Garcia felt very sorry.
“Theory explanation is roughly finished. Everyone, lift the string in front of you.”
Strings made from plant fibers sprang up in front of the students.
“Cut it off and connect it with magic.”
“I did.”
“Keep repeating.”
“……”
The students felt themselves becoming stupid and disconnected the string and disconnected it again.
Although it looks a bit stupid, it was an effective exercise.
How can a person who cannot properly connect even the easiest plant strings connect the broken human blood vessels?
Not only did they become proficient through repetition, but the waste in the use of magical energy also decreased.
A taboo that should never be wasted on a healing mage who needs to heal all kinds of parts.
If mana was consumed through repetition like this, the needless waste would be reduced on its own.
“do it properly.”
“?”
Lee Han, who was cutting and cutting and cutting, was puzzled by the professor’s point.
Is what I just did wrong?
“…Oh. Professor, please come over here for a moment.”
Professor Garcia dragged Professor Alcasis aside.
Come to think of it, he was so busy that he wasn’t there when the professors were chatting with each other!
