Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 350
Chapter 350
Lee Han wiped away his tears with a handkerchief. My vision was strangely blurry.
‘Is it raining?’
“…you’d better have something to eat. I will buy it.”
“no. We should buy it.”
“The juniors aren’t coming in, but if you steal silver coins from your juniors and buy ice cream, they won’t come in anymore.”
The seniors sat Lee Han in front of the fountain and walked towards the ice cream stand.
-…That’s why I hate it…
-…I can’t yield either way…
“??”
Lee Han was taken aback when he saw the seniors arguing with the ice cream seller.
‘what? Did you fail to negotiate the price?’
If that was the case, Lee Han thought he should go and help.
“Why are you here?”
“Ah… the merchants we know don’t want to take silver from us.”
“!”
– Cannot be received. you won’t get it
-haha. Healing mages made a mistake. How much do you have to pay for the silver?
-you’re right. really. I made a crepe here, so please try it.
-what? Did the healing mages of Einrogard come?
As the argument got longer, the merchants around them started pouring in.
Merchants who recognized the students of Einrogard brought an armful of the snacks they were selling and placed them on top of each other.
The seniors were at a loss because they didn’t know what to do.
-It’s okay…
-Oh my God, you’re so skinny that you can only see your bones!
-That’s prejudice…
-Really! You should eat more!
-We’re healing mages, so why are you talking nonsense…
-Take this too!
The seniors, who were stripped of their souls by the crowds of merchants, returned with half-exhausted faces.
And heaps of snacks piled up on the table.
“Eat a lot. Junior.”
“…would you like to eat together?”
“huh. But we work too much, so we have no appetite. You must eat a lot.”
“……”
Lee Han thought he should eat even if his stomach exploded.
‘I’m glad you’re popular.’
There were times when even black magicians would not accept silver coins when they went to the store, but that meant something a little different.
The healing mages here were really close to trying to treat them without taking silver.
The seniors held ice cream cones one by one, looked at the fountain, played a wizard card game, or rolled dice on a board and played horseback riding.
Everyone’s faces are full of calm happiness and peace…
Kurrung!
“What are you talking about?”
“It must have been an accident in the guild area! That’s it! Newly built this time…”
“Smoke is coming up, isn’t it a fire?!”
“……”
The seniors stood up from their seats after looking down at the floor in silence.
“Seniors. No way…”
“I’m sorry. Wodanaz.”
“You never know. The professor might need our help.”
“Thanks to today, I had so much fun. I’m glad a junior like you came in.”
“no…!”
Even before it dried, the seniors took donuts one by one and ran to the scene of the accident.
“It’s okay because the principal is here…!”
Lee Han shouted sadly, but the seniors only waved their hands and left.
Only the pile of snacks piled up, man Lee Han sighed.
‘If I stay like that for a few more years, even a nice person will get dirty.’
The plaza became quiet because even the merchants went to see the scene of the accident.
Then a voice came from behind.
“Why are you eating like this by yourself?”
“…!”
Lee Han turned his head at the familiar voice.
An old wizard with an impression of a benevolent old woman stood behind her.
“Eumidihus-nim…!”
“It’s been a while.”
Yumidhus, a famous water element wizard in the empire, sat down in front of Yihan and pointed at a waffle.
“Of course you can eat it.”
“Thank you.”
Eumidhus didn’t move, but the syrup on the table rose up and gently covered the waffles.
Yumidhus, who took a bite, looked at Lee Han and asked.
“Why are you so nervous?”
“That’s right…”
Eumidhus himself was a moderately crazy wizard, but the wizard who would come after the appearance of Eumidhuth had a different story.
“…Professor Baegrek didn’t visit Yumi Dihus to prepare things for the second semester lecture?”
“aha. It did.”
Eumidhus nodded.
“You were worried that Voladi Bagrek couldn’t find it.”
“…Ah yes.”
Lee Han replied while managing his facial muscles.
Eumidhus continued as if he was fine.
“I found it, so there is nothing to worry about.”
“Yeah…”
Ugh.
“Anyway, I want to see elemental water magic. Can you show me?”
Lee Han grabbed the cane. Eumidhus spoke in a soft but stern voice.
“Try to float it.”
“Spring up!”
“Form Transformation.”
“Become a wall!”
“The time has come to do it all at once. Try it at once.”
Lee Han’s spell casting speed was one of the fastest compared to other wizards.
It was natural as he was undergoing rigorous training as a battle mage.
As such, when using water elemental magic, it didn’t matter too much if each process was divided and cast.
But Eumidhus was telling him to graduate from that as well.
Like an outstanding wizard, all at once.
Lee Han nodded.
‘It was time to do it though.’
Of course, if other friends had heard of it, they would have said, ‘Wow, wake up, you’re still in the first year, it’s time to do something’, but Lee Han’s notion was slightly shattered because of the other professors.
“Water as a shield!”
The action of floating water and converting it into a shield was neatly compressed into one spell and one movement.
“Excellent.”
“I was lucky. It’s the most familiar element…”
“That familiarity comes from your hard work, so you shouldn’t call it luck.”
Eumidihus waved his hand, and the fountain’s water gushed and turned into a wall.
“Let’s take a look at the rotation property. Can you break through this wall?”
“I will try.”
Among the advanced attributes of the water element, the rotational attribute was an attribute Lee Han had been practicing steadily since the first semester.
Of course, it wasn’t that easy.
I used it on a limited basis a few times when dealing with Rakemaw, but I couldn’t help it because it took time.
At this level, in order to properly handle the rotation attribute, I had to give up some power and end it with a suitable rotation, or I had to change my mind and change my time.
Eumidhus wondered to what extent Lee Han had overcome this problem.
Of course, if you were an ordinary student, you would have to put in effort over the 2nd and 3rd grade, but isn’t the situation a bit different for the student in front of you now?
charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
“?!”
Eumidhus was astonished.
Lee Han summoned dozens of water beads.
‘What are you thinking?’
“Turn around!”
With the spell, several of the dozens of water beads lost their shape and disappeared.
Because the rotation attribute was clumsily given, the form could not be maintained and the magic was canceled.
Among the surviving water marbles, Lee Han focused his attention on the marbles that were properly rotated.
As the rotation got faster, several marbles were canceled again. Lee Han accelerated the remaining marbles without hesitation.
“……”
Eumidhus honestly admired.
It wasn’t that he admired Lee Han’s magical talent. That was after admiring it before.
What Eumidius admired was Lee Han’s way of thinking.
No matter how much mana he had, it was rare for a wizard to be able to use it in that way.
To use dozens of other magics as sacrifices to complete one magic.
From the point of view of wizards, it was an absurd waste, but it was not very difficult for Lee Han.
In less than a few minutes, a furiously spinning water ball was completed.
puck!
The old wizard clapped his hands as the orb easily penetrated the barrier built by Eumidhus.
“Good job. I was honestly surprised.”
“Is that so?”
Lee Han was delighted.
To be honest, I was worried that Eumidhus would say, ‘Isn’t that still enough?’.
But I was relieved to see that he was so satisfied.
“Of course you did well. Why are you surprised?”
“There are still a lot of shortcomings…”
“Because of Voladi Baegrek, you are not able to give a proper evaluation. It is true that you are doing well.”
“thank you.”
I felt good whenever I heard Professor Boladi’s curse words.
Lee Han lowered his head.
“Originally, I was going to give advice if I was stuck, but that way… I don’t think I can give you any advice.”
“yes? no. Please advise.”
Han Lee was unfair.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have dozens of marbles floating like that?
Good advice from an archmage like Eumidhus would be far more effective than those ignorant methods…
“No. doing well.”
Eumidhus thought Lee Han’s method was very good.
Originally, there is no royal road to magic.
In particular, it was important to continue to experience and build up magic, where subtle senses are important, such as the rotation attribute.
Lee Han’s method of floating dozens of marbles like crazy and rotating them all was surprisingly very effective.
If you continue as it is, you will soon be able to realize the rotational attribute.
“It’s late. sorry.”
When Professor Boladi walked by, Lee Han’s heart sank.
The professor’s clothes were tattered, as if he had walked straight from a battlefield.
‘What the hell did they catch?’
As much as he had to deal with what Professor Voladi had caught right away in the second semester, fear in Lee Han’s soul was bound to rise.
“Why are you late?”
“Other professors have asked to help fix the scene of the accident.”
“It’s strange that you don’t say no.”
“Gonadaltes-sama also asked for it, so I couldn’t refuse.”
“Gonadaltes?”
Eumidhus was startled.
Headmaster Skeleton wasn’t the type to try to solve something like that himself.
I usually made my students or professors do it…
“Was it that serious?”
“It wasn’t. I think it was to give the students a break.”
Lee Han, who was listening, couldn’t stand it and asked.
“Did the students eventually participate?”
“no. Professor Garcia told me to rest.”
Han Lee was impressed.
Eumidhus nodded and said.
“Rest is also important. To be honest, the young healing mages of Einrogard are overworked.”
“yes. Rest is important.”
“???”
Lee Han stared at Professor Boladi.
Did anyone who knew that ever act like that?
“Now that we’ve come to Voladi Baegrek, let’s get down to business. I came to hear that you have an aptitude for the cold element.”
Lee Han looked at Professor Boladi again.
Professor Voladi nodded slightly as if he understood the meaning of that gaze.
Lee Han couldn’t even imagine what the other person meant when he nodded.
“It’s not even aptitude…”
“If you can summon cold air, it’s aptitude. Rare elements are hard to summon if you don’t have the right aptitude. Anyway, the cold element is also related to the water element, and applying the two together is a learning experience in many ways. So, in the second semester… ah. Weren’t you supposed to tell me your name?”
Professor Voladi nodded again.
Lee Han stared at the professor’s collar. I just wanted to catch it.
“It came like this after catching it.”
“thank you.”
Lee Han was not very dissatisfied with Yumidhus’ proposal.
Unlike other professors, Eumidius taught relatively common sense.
It wouldn’t be bad if he stayed at the mansion and learned about the magic of the elemental cold.
‘Besides, it’ll be an excuse when other professors come.’
“Then shall we depart?”
“ah. Aren’t you learning at the mansion?”
“It’s a bit ambiguous to learn at the mansion. There’s a tower where a wizard who owes me stays.”
“Are you a disciple?”
“He wasn’t a disciple, but he did learn a few things from me.”
‘Isn’t that a disciple?’
Lee Han, who thought to himself, hesitated.
Come to think of it, wasn’t Professor Voladi also a disciple of Eumidius?
“Is he, by any chance, like Professor Bagreg?”
“no.”
“ah. okay.”
Lee Han was relieved.
Until the next words of Eumidhus came out.
“He’s more rude.”
“……”
