Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 31
Chapter 031
“Have my evil thoughts been found out?”
Lee Han was worried for a moment, but luckily he wasn’t caught.
“Even if you wear a priest’s uniform, your faith will not deepen or your curse will weaken…”
Tigilling seemed concerned that Lee Han was misunderstanding something else.
“Of course it is. However, I felt that if I wore priestly clothes, I would be able to reflect on myself for being lazy and wearing comfortable and soft clothes.”
“…Wouldn’t that suit be enough?”
Tigiling pointed to Lee Han’s clothes.
Headmaster Skeleton only gave the students a rough and rugged school uniform (actually, I don’t know if this could be called a school uniform), so it was already far from comfortable and soft clothes.
However, Lee Han did not waver.
“no. I need a priest suit. In order to understand Prisinga-nim’s will a little more.”
“If you say so…”
Tigiling pondered, then bowed down. To the faithful Tijeeling, the reason that it was for her faith was a reason she could not refuse.
“I’ll save you the next time we meet.”
“okay. really. I was asked by the priest to bring me some food.”
“it’s okay.”
Tijeeling answered softly but firmly.
“I’m satisfied with the meal right now.”
If the other person refuses and immediately says “I understand” and withdraws, that doesn’t have the qualities of a graduate student.
If the professor asks, how to make the impossible possible?
Of course, Priest Mehrid was not a professor…
“But the priest is worried. If you don’t do anything, you’ll keep worrying. How about doing this? are having a meal together You don’t have to force yourself to eat. Wouldn’t it alleviate the priest’s worries just by having a meal together?”
Tizzling nodded while thinking about whether Lee Han’s words were plausible.
Even if it wasn’t, he was sorry that Priest Mehrid kept worrying about him.
“That sounds like a good idea.”
“yes?”
Lee Han smiled.
‘As long as we have a meal together, we can make them eat as much as we want.’
It was too easy to manipulate a girl who grew up praying in the church.
Tigiling tilted her head, perhaps sensing something suspicious in that smile.

The weekend is over and a new week has arrived.
For some reason, the faces of the students who endured the bloody first week after entering the school seemed to have matured.
– Heh. Do you guys have a hard time at Einrogard? I feel like home now
– After about a week, is it worth it? Enough of this magic class.
Unfounded confidence was welling up among the students who took a short break on the weekend.
However, Ein Lorgard showed his ruthless true colors to such students.
< Basic Imperial Geometry and Arithmetic >.
-Here is a young wizard at one of the vertices of the cube. The young wizard tries to connect a magic circle from his vertex to the furthest vertex. At this time, calculate the shortest distance that the young wizard can connect.
-…Professor? This isn’t magic…
-Don’t ask stupid, stupid questions. A wizard who relies on his senses and can only wield a staff will never succeed. As you progress to higher circles of magic, understanding of complex calculations and laws is essential. Geometry is one of the core of magic. Those who do not know geometry cannot properly draw a magic circle. Likewise, arithmetic is at the heart of magic. How can someone who doesn’t even know how to distribute magic draw a magic circle?
-……
-…This… This…
< Basic Imperial Language and Logic >.
-One of the greatest dangers to young wizards is to be contracted fraudulently by someone more intelligent than they are. That’s why wizards must know how to read the dangers of contracts and the ambiguous meaning contained in them. ruler. Today we will solve this problem. Here is a drunken, stupid wizard. This wizard always does stupid things when he gets drunk, but one day, while drunk, the wizard summoned a demon and made an unfavorable contract with him. Will this magician be able to nullify the contract when he wakes up… Are those who are sleeping now worth their souls? wake up!
-Ah! I didn’t sleep!
The students who took the ferocious required subjects that they couldn’t meet in the first week were half-spirited faces.
what did i just hear?
“Maybe I’m not good at magic…”
“To think that I knew magic just because I wielded a wand… I’m worthless trash…”
The students murmured with complete confidence shattered. .
But in the meantime, there were some outstanding ones.
“Geometry and arithmetic are just the basics in governing and running an empire.”
The son of the Dalcard family, who has held the position of Chancellor of the Empire and Treasurer of the Empire for generations.
“……”
Among the countless members of the royal family, Princess Adenart is famous for her exceptional talent.
“How did you solve it? hey. does that matter now? We have to find a way out.”
Lee Han of the Wodanaz family stands out the most in the Blue Dragon Tower, where the sons of the most prestigious families in the empire gather.
These three were gifted people who completed the suffocating raid of required subjects without blinking an eye.
‘I didn’t expect to think that going to graduate school was useful in my life.’
Lee Han thought to himself.
Everyone around me said, ‘What are you going to do with studying like that’, but surprisingly, studying was useful.
I didn’t expect it to be useful in this way, but
… Han Lee. Look at those white tiger tower guys over there. It’s out of shape.”
‘You couldn’t solve it either…’
Lee Han admired the figure of Gainando regaining his energy after seeing the students of the White Tiger Tower, even though he couldn’t solve it himself.
People are so consistent!
“Can you teach me later?”
Yoner asked cautiously.
It was unreasonable for Yoner, who was on the smart side, to completely follow today’s class.
I guess I’ll have to go back and review and try again.
If that’s the case, having a smart friend like Lee Han help out would be a big help.
To be honest, Lee Han’s appearance earlier was surprising.
Asan is from a famous family in that area, and Princess Adenart has already proven it several times, but to think that Lee Han will show her ability without being pushed by them.
“However much. I will also ask about alchemy later.”
Yihan’s answer made Yoner’s face brighten.
‘It’s convenient when studying if there is a field that each other is good at.’
Surprisingly, networking helped me with my studies.
Geniuses who do not need help from others do not need to have connections, but Lee Han was not such a genius.
If you have a relationship where you can give and receive help from each other, there is no choice but to be advantageous in many ways.
Lee Han did not think that teaching Yoner math or logic would be a loss.
Rather, he thought it would be beneficial to learn alchemy from Yoner.
“oh. Then me too!”
“……”
Lee Han hesitated for a moment.
Teaching Kainando definitely felt like a loss.
“of course.”
“Didn’t you just stop?”
“It must be because of the mood. By the way, given that the required subjects are so difficult, I guess I did well not to choose too many other electives.”
Everyone nodded their heads at Lee Han’s words.
After listening to the lecture in the first week, the confidence that I thought, ‘Is this enough?’ has long since disappeared.
It made me seriously want to cancel other lectures.
Lee Han said softly.
“how is it. If you’re thinking of listening to repetitive learning of swordsmanship, physical training, or magic combat…”
“Sorry.”
“I hate that.”
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think so.”
Although the students listened to Lee Han’s words, they were very determined on this part.
* * *
Just as the students gathered periodically, the professors also gathered periodically.
Dwarf Professor Thunderwalk took a sip of hot brewed tea.
‘hmm. After all, the tea tastes better only when there are useful workers.’
There was a saying in the Dwarf proverb, ‘Everything tastes better with skillful workers.’
Certainly, the Wodanaz boy was a skilled worker. Looking at how much better the tea leaves were than when he was managing the hut by himself.
This was not something anyone could do. It was especially difficult for those from the imperial family.
So-called chore talent!
“By the way, Headmaster.”
hmm?
“Which professor is teaching the < Basic Vehicle Training > lecture?”
Garcia Kim, a half-blood troll professor, opened her mouth.
Thunderstep replied as if he was puzzled.
“uh? Wasn’t Professor Bendosol teaching it?”
“Oops. Didn’t you hear? Professor Bendosol went missing while looking for a unicorn. Seeing as you haven’t returned yet, I think we should find another professor.”
do not worry. Because of course I was prepared.
“As expected…”
“I believed it.”
All the professors nodded at the reassuring headmaster’s words.
Even if there were a lot of words, the skeleton headmaster had a lot of power to keep this huge mass of uncertainty, Magic School, in its shape and running.
Who else could run and lead this school if not the skeleton headmaster?
“So who are you?”
I was curious about the steps.
< Basic riding training > was one of the lectures that I had to take.
It is not simply to get rid of the difficulties of not being able to ride a horse when you graduate from school, but also to deal with and get used to various unusual animals.
As such, the professor had to have in-depth knowledge of horseback riding as well as various vehicles.
Fastest lightning step.
“……”
“Oh. You can trust him.”
“Looks like a great choice.”
All the professors were satisfied except for Thunder Step.
Lightningwalker was a famous dwarf adventurer who had a reputation for exploring and investigating remote areas within and outside the empire.
Of course, the thunder step was very, very unpleasant.
Because the lightning step was the aunt of the thunder step.
“No, why is it him?!”
If you’re going to argue, do it to Bendozol, who went missing while looking for a unicorn. Did you know that Professor Narago would disappear? You should consider yourself lucky to have found the right person so quickly.
“Keuuugh…”
Thunderstep could not refute the headmaster’s words.
Finding the right professor was certainly not an easy task.
But…
‘I really hate to meet you.’
The reason why the Thunderwalker hated the Eastern Dwarves was also the Lightningwalker.
The lightning stride was from the eastern dwarves.
Whenever we meet, ‘How long are you going to tinker with flasks and drugs in your closet’, ‘Listen to what an adult says’, ‘The iron leg of the next family has already started a family’, and the dwarf who tears apart the soul of the stormtrooper is lightning. step!
Professor Garcia said consolingly.
“Don’t be so. You won’t meet that many times.”
“I hope so…”
* * *
Although the students had been beaten up by math and language all day long, their faces were unexpectedly bright.
It was because of the class I was about to take.
< Basic vehicle training >!
In the Empire, horseback riding was a culture for nobles, a skill for knights, and a luxury that was not too difficult for commoners.
The Blue Dragon Tower students who rode horses around the territory since they were children, the White Tiger Tower students who galloped through the mountains and fields on horseback, and the Black Turtle Tower students who traveled the long and long Imperial Road with a single horse were all confident.
Lee Han, of course, knew how to ride a horse, so he wasn’t very wary.
‘Well, people will collapse if I keep whipping them, so there should be a lecture like carrots.’
-Krwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwa!
“?”
“???”
“????”
Something huge flew from the sky with a scream like a monster.
Then, it bit Gainando with its beak and flew upwards.
“Aaaaaaaaagh!”
