Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 259
Chapter 259
“!”
morning.
Entering the classroom, Lee Han almost fell in surprise.
No, actually, I was so surprised that I hit a chair and knocked it over.
Courage!
-What’s going on?
“it’s nothing.”
-okay. study hard
The Death Knights went out into the hallway again.
Lee Han regained his composure and read the writing on the classroom blackboard again.
Class canceled due to professor’s circumstances
-Voladi Baegrek
‘Professor…’
Lee Han was deeply moved by Professor Voladi’s consideration.
There was no one more kind than a professor who canceled class when students were busy with other lecture assignments and exams.
Was Professor Boladi a person who knew how to be considerate like this?
Of course, it would have been nice if this was said separately rather than on the blackboard in the classroom
…
Lee Han had a conscience. I didn’t wish for too much luck.
How can you get free time like this?
-Why are you coming back?
“The professor says the class is closed for some reason. Do you have any problems with Professor Bagreg?”
Lee Han asked just in case.
Professor Voladi wasn’t the kind of person to be beaten anywhere, but the eccentricity of magic school was no exception to the professor.
-well? I haven’t heard anything
– Seeing how quiet it is, it won’t be a big deal. It’s admirable to see you worrying about your master.
“…haha. It’s embarrassing.”
Lee Han nodded while managing his expression.
-really. Did you also listen to Professor Verdus’ lecture?
“yes. How did you know?”
-Professor Verdus said he was looking for Wardanaz.
“……”
Lee Han checked the time.
morning now.
There was at least six hours left before Professor Verdus’ additional lecture time.
“Aren’t you mistaken for the time?”
-You don’t think so, do you? When I asked, he said that the time of the lecture is not important.
‘I’ll have to stay inside the tower before the lecture begins.’
Lee Han made up his mind not to go anywhere near Seonggak Hall until the lecture.
* * *
“Why are you here so late?!”
As soon as Professor Verdus saw Lee Han, he exclaimed affectionately.
Lee Han said with an ignorant expression.
“no? Are you sure you came on time?”
“What is the importance of class time? If it were me, I would stay here all the time!”
Professor Verdus, whose enchantment is the most interesting in the world, did not understand Lee Han.
If Professor Verdus were Lee Han, he would throw away all other lectures and just do research here at Sunggak Hall!
“That’s not important. professor. I came here with an assignment.”
Before Lee Han came, he held out a shield imbued with magic.
Friends who arrived late to the classroom saw it and cursed inwardly.
‘Wodhanaz that bastard. If you have completed something like that, pay it at the end.’
‘Has no conscience!’
“Oh…”
Professor Verdus, who was always indifferent to whether the students were sleeping or dancing in front of him, showed interest for the first time.
“You mean that ignorant, crude shield?”
“Your compliments always make me happy.”
Professor Verdus looked at the shield whether Lee Han grumbled or not.
I’ve been wanting to see the Death Knights since they started rumors, but now I’m only seeing them because Gonadaltes, who’s vicious and has a twisted personality and only has a hobby of harassing students, interfered.
“Hey…”
Professor Verdus nodded as he stroked the shield alone and tapped it.
Certainly, the magic circle or structure itself was still clumsy and clumsy to Professor Verdus… but
it was very interesting that he just ignored these shortcomings with the amount of magic power.
Dozens of artifacts passed through Professor Verdus’ mind.
If you can overcharge your mana in this way, you can create enough artifacts that you have been putting off until now.
“What grade were you in?”
“I am in first grade.”
“why!?”
“……”
Lee Han was not taken aback.
Because I already knew that the other person was crazy.
In contrast, the students behind Lee Han looked at Professor Verdus with a mixture of fear and astonishment.
“Why is my grade so low… then I can’t even make a spirit sword… and I still have lens artifacts… can you teach me directly?”
Seeing Professor Verdus muttering, Lee Han felt ominous.
“okay! I really hate to do it, but I’ll teach you myself… Huh? Where have you been?”
“Wodhanaj? Did you go out to bring something you left in the tower?”
* * *
I expected that after a while, Professor Verdus would become interested in other students’ assignments and forget them, but Professor Verdus’ concentration was greater than expected.
After grading other students’ assignments one by one, Lee Han immediately shouted as soon as he returned to the classroom.
“80 points.”
“oh. Did you make it well?”
“huh? no. I couldn’t make it like a dog.”
“…Aren’t 80 points out of 100 points good?”
“no. It’s just that other guys can’t make more. oh! Wodanaz!”
‘shit.’
Lee Han raised his head.
“Did you hear that?”
“I didn’t hear you well.”
“I’ll teach you some of the foundational enchantments you need.”
Professor Verdus was not basically the kind of person who would hold onto students and teach them one-on-one.
Just as a shepherd leaves his sheep on the pasture and waits, he releases students into the classroom and waits for them to learn on their own!
Basically, as a person who never does anything that is not fun to him, of course he did not hold on to students and teach them one-on-one.
But this time the story was different.
In order for Lee Han to do things related to artifact production easily, he had to know at least a few basic magics that were frequently used (by Professor Verdus standards).
From Professor Verdus’s memory, it seems that the disciples used the basic magic in the third year or so, so it was calculated that they would have to wait two years.
“Are you talking about class?”
“no. You have to learn other things during class. I need to make time for myself.”
“Didn’t you say basic?”
“huh. basic.”
“If it’s the basics, can’t I learn it in class?”
“aha.”
Professor Verdus seemed to belatedly aware of what Lee Han was talking about.
“It’s basic, but it’s not the magic you’ll learn right now.”
“……”
‘Then it’s not the basics…’
Lee Han tried to curse, but held back.
Do you not know the meaning of foundation?
“professor.”
“why?”
“sorry. I’m taking a lot of other lectures too. It would be unreasonable to spend more time here.”
“what!??!?”
Professor Verdus was astonished, like someone who had been told, ‘The world will end in one minute’.
“why?!??!”
‘Did I make the explanation strange?’
Lee Han looked back at what he had said.
Was it that hard to say that I was taking so many other lectures that I could no longer afford extra time?
“Isn’t the bestowal magic more fun?!”
“well?”
“Enchantment magic will be more fun!”
“Well…”
“Enchantment magic is more fun…”
Professor Verdus murmured with a shocked expression.
It was an expression that I never expected Lee Han to refuse.
“Why is Wardanaz doing that?”
Professor Verdus grabbed hold of the adorable Durgyu who was passing by carrying a box of ingredients and asked.
“yes?”
“They say they’ll teach you, but they say it’s impossible to take time for other lectures.”
“Uh… isn’t that what it says…?”
Durgyu wondered why he couldn’t understand that.
“Can I skip another lecture?”
“Then wouldn’t the professors of that class hate it?”
“Can’t professors hate it?”
“…then the lecture professors might attack Lee Han?”
As the other person kept talking bullshit, Durgyu also started talking bullshit.
And it wasn’t really bullshit.
The principal also attacks the students, but the law that professors can’t say…
“That’s too much!”
“I mean.”
“How can I make more time?”
“I mean…”
Durgyu looked at Lee Han asking for help.
I need to quickly get the ingredients and study magic, but some crazy professor is holding onto me and won’t let me go.
Lee Han said to Professor Verdus.
“There is a good way. professor.”
“oh. Are you thinking of listening?”
“No… you’re running out of time against my will, aren’t you? Then you have to make time.”
“how?”
“You have to ask merchants to gather materials now, right?”
In order to practice grant magic, all kinds of materials were needed.
Those materials didn’t come for free. All the students had to work on their own and get help from the merchants.
“If the professor gives it to you, there will be time.”
“uh? I?”
At Lee Han’s words, Professor Verdus pondered for a moment.
Learning is what students do for themselves.
It was Professor Verdus’s philosophy that students should get the materials themselves, but…
“That’s right.”
That’s it, Professor Verdus was the one who could flip his palm whenever he needed something.
“Then time was created?”
“It is still not enough. professor.”
“yet?!”
“yes. Right now, we have a lot of trial and error. Why would that be?”
“Because you guys can’t even use magic?”
“……”
“……”
Students passing by carrying boxes glared at Professor Verdus’ back.
“…That’s all right, but wouldn’t it be a big help if the professor gave me a few words of advice?”
“So what?”
Professor Verdus nodded.
“Has time been made now?”
Lee Han was surprised to see Professor Verdus being more compliant than he thought.
what?
‘Can I ask for more than this?’
Lee Han tried to ask Professor Verdus to perform a trick while receiving a ball with his head, but ended up doing it.
Then, out of curiosity, I asked.
“By the way, Professor. You don’t dare to tell me to cut down on sleeping or resting time?”
“uh? ah. Gonadaltes forbade it. Isn’t it really too much?”
“…haha. I mean.”
* * *
The students paid for the materials with their own money and gave the lectures themselves, and all the students became happy for a while.
“professor. The magic circuit amplification part is blocked here…”
“Draw a line here.”
“…????”
The student who threw a question at the figure of Professor Verdus, who cut a line in the clogged circuit and went away, blinked his eyes.
uh… uh huh?
“What does this line mean?”
“what?”
Professor Verdus looked at him with a look like ‘How can I explain this simple thing further’ and was embarrassed.
The embarrassed professor called the culprit behind this.
“I can’t. You explain this.”
“no. professor. I don’t know if he’s blocked… Ah. This is because the mana is concentrated only on the upper side, so it is dispersed. If we leave it as it is, the lines of the magic circle will break due to overload.”
“oh… I see!”
Lee Han, who was pleased when his friend understood, hesitated.
‘Oops.’
I should have pretended not to know…
Professor Verdus was pleased that the student seemed to understand anyway.
And every time I got stuck, I called Lee Han.
“Wardanaz.”
“Wardanaz?”
“Wardanaz!”
“……”
Han Lee just wondered if Professor Verdus would distract the students again.
* * *
“True. I need to tell you about the final exam.”
Professor Verdus, who was lecturing hard, checked the time and said.
“Has more than a week left?”
“Artifacts take time. You guys are so bad that there must be a lot of kids who can’t do it even if we give them time like this.”
Everyone was moved by the warm words of the professor.
“The final exam assignment is also simple. Do you have any assignments submitted today? Upgrade it to a higher level and bring it. I will evaluate it with that.”
“Hmm…”
“Mmm.”
The students were agonizing over what to do with Professor Verdus’ words.
“……”
And Lee Han was deeply frustrated after a long time.
‘shit.’
What upgrades do you mean here?
