Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 329
Chapter 329
“Why?”
“it’s nothing.”
Priest Tigilling slightly bowed his head with an apologetic heart.
I was ashamed of myself for thinking like this for a moment.
Come to think of it, how much dedication did the boy of the Wodanaz family have for his friends?
Even thinking about the meal the students of the Phoenix Tower had eaten, the priests could not raise their heads in front of Lee Han.
“sorry.”
“??”
Lee Han was puzzled by the sudden apology of Tijeeling Priest.
what?
‘Is it because I was invited to a church event?’
To Lee Han, who was already going with a dark ulterior motive, such an apology was rather apologetic.
“no. I have nothing to apologize for.”
“I’m sorry for interrupting your work.”
Professor Verdus said as if he understood.
How much did Wodanaz want to finish working on the magic stone now?
It must feel like it’s burning inside because you’re putting it off because of a trivial promise you made in the past.
“Ah… I’m really sorry, then there’s nothing to do.”
Lee Han said firmly, full of sincerity.

The temples of the Order of Prisinga are usually visited by many cursed people.
You visited a cursed area without knowing it, and it was cursed, or you accidentally wore a cursed artifact, and so on.
Prisinga’s priests did not leave out any of these guests, kindly treated them, purified the artifacts, and sometimes wore them themselves.
The last one was a little strange, but anyway, there were few people as strong as the Freesinga Church to the cursed ordinary people.
“Priest. help! After wearing this bracelet, my arm turned into an undead arm!”
“Priest! My tribe…! I don’t want to live as a stinky dwarf! Ugh!”
“I went on a trip last week, but I didn’t know what I did wrong, and my skin turned bronze…” The
three of them rode the Wardanaj family’s carriage and arrived in front of the main gate of the temple. Professor Verdus looked at the people in line and said.
“It’s fun. I would like to study.”
“professor. I think you might as well keep your mouth shut until you enter the temple.”
If I said ‘You are a very good research case’ in front of people who are already cursed and nervous, a knife could come flying.
“Lee Han from the Wardanaz family!”
Priest Mehrid ran out happily. While I couldn’t see it, there was a strange helmet dangling over my head, as if I had worn another cursed artifact.
“I heard a lot about it. Thank you so much.”
“no. I just did what I had to do.”
Lee Han answered humbly, but in fact, his heart was not humble.
Considering the dishes he actually cooked for the Phoenix Tower students, Lee Han deserved to be proud.
“…But why, Professor?”
Priest Mehrid whispered in an embarrassed voice.
Lee Han knew very well that he had to go out confidently.
“I am here to help.”
“yes? You mean that professor? Oh no… not that I hate it.”
Lee Han could understand Priest Mehrid’s reaction.
Well, even if it was Lee Han, I would be quite surprised if Professor Verdus came to help.
“As an expert in artifacts, you will be useful for events like this.”
“That’s true, but I don’t think he’ll help… Oh no. It’s not that I hate it.”
‘You’re quite calm.’
Priest Mehrid was a priest, but he was never the type to turn a blind eye to reality.
It was a realist priest to the last.
“Do not worry. This time, the professor will work hard to help you.”
“Is that so? What happened?”
“Today’s event has to end quickly so he takes me to work.”
“……”
Priest Mehrid looked at Lee Han with a complicated expression.
* * *
Certainly, it was easy to help the church if there was one outstanding mage.
Professor Verdus would sit with his arms crossed, and when a person came to him, he spoke up.
“I am cursed with fire!”
“yes?!”
“I was cursed with fire!”
Lee Han kindly explained to me instead.
“They say that the jewelry in the box you are holding is cursed with fire. You can get burned if you wear it unintentionally.”
“That kind of…”
The guest with the trinket blinked in terror.
“Then what should I do?”
“professor. Can you do it?”
“Give it to me!”
“Oh my gosh. thank you Priest.”
“Not a priest. He’s a wizard.”
Professor Verdus received the ornament and began to lift the curse. The person who brought it nodded and thanked him.
Lee Han got his inspiration here.
‘hmm. This could be a business too.’
With a signboard saying ‘I will lift the curse’…
The problem was that there was a monopoly system called the Freesinga Church. Besides, the most intimidating thing about this church is that it is free.
Is there any place where there is no Pricinga Church?
“Look at this. This is the curse of burns. Can you see the pattern engraved here?”
“Even if you say that, it’s magic I don’t know.”
“Memorize it. You have to memorize it. Next time the same magic comes out, you do it.”
“Oh…”
Lee Han was surprised by Professor Verdus’s lack of conscience.
It’s not ‘you have to memorize it later to help’, but ‘you have to memorize it later’.
Are you seriously thinking of entrusting a first year student with the task of disarming the curse artifact?
‘He’s a crazy person all over again.’
“Infuse some magic here.”
Professor Verdus held out the magic tool he was holding to Lee Han. The light flickered as if the mana that had been injected inside had been exhausted.
Without much thought, Lee Han grabbed the equipment and injected mana into it. Professor Verdus was very satisfied with the rapidly rising mana.
“Yeah. you’re good.”
‘Oops.’
When Professor Verdus made an expression saying, “I found another useful thing,” Lee Han felt sorry for him.
Even if Professor Verdus learned a lot about Lee Han’s usefulness, it didn’t help at all in his life.
Pajik Pajik Pajik!
“All right. take it. The curse has been lifted.”
“Awesome!”
The priest next to him expressed admiration for Professor Verdus’ skill.
Even the experienced priests of the Prisinga Church couldn’t solve it that quickly. It was truly an amazing skill.
“Isn’t that great at all? It was something even a caterpillar could do.”
“And indeed…”
When the priest was perplexed, Lee Han thought that he should continue speaking instead of the professor.
“professor. I’ll just say it for you, and the professor does the work.”
“uh? thank you.”
* * *
“This must be irreversible.”
Even Professor Verdus couldn’t solve all the curses.
The bracelet with the ominous pattern seemed highly likely to be destroyed if the curse was lifted.
“Was it also a cursed item? Damn, somehow I felt uncomfortable… Thank you. Mister Wizard. I will leave it here.”
The person who picked up the bracelet regretted it and put it down.
I came to appraise whether there was something good, but it was cursed.
Items that could not be healed in this way were usually handled by the Church.
Cursed artifacts were basically difficult to deal with.
“But what kind of curse is it?”
When another guest left, Lee Han stretched out and asked.
“Suppression of mana dissipation.”
“Suppressing the release of mana? Is it like absorption?”
“It is different from absorption. you’re stupid?”
Lee Han nodded as Professor Verdus gently pointed out the disciple’s mistakes.
“The ark must be different.”
If the curse of absorbing mana was to absorb the person’s mana the moment it was worn, the curse of mana dissipation was to limit the person’s mana from being emitted.
Both were curses used to ban people who knew how to use magic, but the method was different.
“Can I wear it once?”
“Sure.”
Lee Han put on a bracelet.
‘It would be better to do it in advance before being killed in Ein Lorgard.’
If others heard it, it would have been shocking, but Lee Han remained calm.
It was better to be defeated first than to be defeated in Ein Lorgard. Because I was able to come up with a solution.
“It doesn’t seem like much has changed.”
“Use magic.”
At those words, Lee Han summoned a water orb.
The water orbs that appeared in the air were well controlled without any problems.
“Are you okay?”
“Try something more complex.”
“If it’s complicated…”
Yihan had already mastered the basic applications of the water element.
The more difficult area here had to go to evaporation or rotation.
‘With rotation.’
The rotation property has not yet been fully covered by Han Lee. The limit was how much time was spent or how much was added at an incomplete level.
Hey hey profit!
“!”
Lee Han was surprised.
The water ball was spinning with a shrill sound.
I didn’t put a lot of time into it, but this much?
‘What is this…? Is that so!’
Lee Han grasped the situation.
For example, the curse of absorbing mana was to continuously absorb 1 at a time.
A person with 10 horsepower would not last long, but a person with 10,000 horsepower could last much longer.
On the other hand, the curse of mana dissipation was to limit the amount of mana that could be used to 10 regardless of whether one had 100 or 10,000 mana.
Originally, it was a curse that would have been very difficult, but the story was different for Lee Han.
It was much easier to control it when he was forced to use only a small amount of mana after having dealt with such a huge amount of mana with great difficulty.
It was as if he had changed from wearing only heavy armor to light armor.
Hey profit! Hey hey profit!
Lee Han felt a thrill of pleasure at the movement of his magic that flowed as he thought.
At this time, the wizard felt a thrill close to omnipotence.
You control the power to change the rules of the world.
What could be more ecstatic than this?
‘Did other wizards usually feel like this?’
It wasn’t true.
The reason Lee Han was able to use magic with ease despite having so much magical power was because he had that kind of talent.
On top of that, since I’m draining a lot of mana unnecessarily, I feel this kind of control. Other mages don’t usually feel that way.
“professor. great! I never thought there would be an artifact like this… Why did Professor Garcia give me a magic absorption artifact and not an artifact like this?”
“Yeah…”
Before Professor Verdus could explain, Lee Han’s bracelet was smashed.
Kwajik!
“……”
Lee Han looked down at the remains of the bracelet with a bitter look. Professor Verdus nodded and said.
“It will be like that.”
“…Tell me early.”
Unlike Magic Absorption Artifacts, which are rarely broken. The Magic Drainage Suppression Artifact was broken too easily depending on the magician’s ability.
It was even more so in the case of Lee Han, who had endless magical powers.
If you use magic once wrongly, it will just be destroyed.
Finding it in the ancient artifacts was fast enough for Lee Han to be able to withstand any magic.
“Still, one more artifact with a magical dissipation suppression function will come out today, right?”
“well? And it’s not a feature, it’s a curse.”
‘Oops. It did.’
At the words of Professor Verdus, Lee Han regained his sanity.
I was so coveted…
Fortunately, 3 more Artifacts with a Magic Dissipation Suppression Curse appeared after that.
Kwajik!
no two.
