Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 358
Chapter 358
“Magic stones are just substitutes, and if you want to realize the purest magical power a magician can create with magic stones…” “
Is that important right now?”
Lee Han pointed to the sorceress, a prostrate penguin beast, and said to Eumidihus.
I wasn’t really curious about how difficult it was to materialize high-quality, pure magic into magic stones.
It was much more important whether or not the mad wizard left the research task to himself.
“Pengerin. Calm down. It’s hard to do with magic stones, but anyway, that’s a part that can be replaced by other methods. What is the irreplaceable part? It is the wizard’s brain that designed this experiment and weaved the magic.”
“……”
Lee Han clearly saw Alcicle flinch.
Having hope, Lee Han grabbed Alcicle’s back and started shaking it back and forth.
“Pengerin! If Pengerin-nim gives up here, what will the countless cold elemental wizards who have been introduced to the cold element through Penguerin-nim! Are you going to disappoint them all!”
“Oh it hurts! It hurts!”
Originally, it was a situation where they should have been happy, but Alcicle screamed.
Lee Han’s power was so good.
“ah. sorry. Disappointing these mages anyway…”
“I see. calm down. to calm down I’ll think about it again.”
When Lee Han seemed to grab onto his back again, Alcicle said in a hurry.
Seeing that, Eumidhus thought to himself.
‘I think I could have just attacked.’
* * *
Eventually Alcicle calmed down and regained his composure.
In fact, what Lee Han said was correct.
When a magic experiment succeeds, the credit lies with the wizard who designed the magic experiment, not the people who helped.
Alcicle, who realized the extreme cold like this, was obviously a great wizard.
…The problem was that the reason why experiments that had failed so far suddenly succeeded was because of Lee Han’s magic.
Unless Alcicle was an idiot, of course he analyzed the cause.
Why did ignorant improvisation succeed when various rare reagents such as Seorein deer’s horn, Cold Jadejeong, Icehansan, Perennial Hanseol, Seolhwangdan, etc. failed?
“The answer lies in the quality of magical power. No matter how much you try to maintain magic with various reagents and magic circles, its purity and quality are inferior to that of directly injecting magic from a magician.”
“Really…”
Lee Han, who was listening in front of Alcicle, suddenly asked, wondering.
“But why are you telling me this?”
I didn’t understand why Lee Han, a first-year student, had to listen to this, as long as Yumi Dihus or Voladi listened to it.
“Where did the magic you just succeeded come from?”
“It came from me.”
“Then what should I do to get that magical power?”
“Should I go out and post an announcement at another cold elemental mage meeting?”
“…no. Because that doesn’t make it all work.”
If the magical power of all the magicians was as pure and of excellent quality as Lee Han’s, then Alcicle wouldn’t have to go through all this trouble.
“It’s hard to find such magical power.”
“Oops. It’s a pity…”
“Help me!”
When Alcicle grabbed Lee Han’s hand and tried to stretch it, Lee Han lightly dodged.
As much as he had suffered a lot from Professor Hado, he was on alert while Alcicle opened his mouth.
“sorry. That is unreasonable.”
“why!”
“I also have a living, but working here 24 hours a day during vacation is a bit…” “
…Didn’t you think of that?!”
Alcicle was shocked at Lee Han’s terrifying idea.
I still have to put in magic power, but if I overwork like that, even the greatest wizard will collapse soon.
Even the opponent was a freshman.
“I don’t even do that many experiments in the first place. Maybe two or three times a year.”
“ah. Is that only enough?”
“…enough?”
If it was that much, I was indebted to him, so I could help him.
When permission was granted, Alcicle’s face brightened. Alcicle shook his head and said.
“thank you! Instead, I will pass on my arcane cold elemental magic. Enough that someday you can take over my research project!”
‘I’m not very happy.’
Even though it’s still hard, Lee Han cursed inwardly at Alcicle who kept trying to pass over his research.
It was the evil wizard himself.
“Yes, thank you.”
“Good. start right away.”
“Because there is no time, teach it quickly. I was thinking of going back to the city for the weekend.”
Arsicle grumbled at the urging of Voladi Baegrek and Yumidhus.
“Unlike basic magic, my secret magic is taught quickly, so you can learn it…”
Alcicle, who had been saying, changed his mind after seeing Lee Han.
“…it’s not, but wordanaz you might be able to do it.”
“It’s not possible.”
Lee Han firmly denied it, but the three wizards didn’t even pretend to hear.
* * *
< Pengerin's alter ego of the cold element > was a 4th circle magic.
Unlike other alter ego magic, it looks so similar to its owner that it is indistinguishable from the outside. Shares the vision of the alter ego.
Considering the efficacy of magic, it was strange to be in the 4th circle.
Of course, the difficulty of the cold elemental clone magic was at the top of the 4th circle magic.
It’s because Lee Han succeeded in the 4th circle magic a few times, and his senses got weird.
“You’ve mastered the lower circle cold elemental magics well, but I don’t think you’ll learn this magic quickly.”
“Fortunately, the.”
Contrary to what he said earlier, Lee Han was relieved when Alcicle calmed down.
“ah. Of course, I’m not ignoring your skills! If it’s you, you’ll be able to go up to the previous stage of alter ego.”
“…? Isn’t that difficult enough?”
Lee Han became afraid that even Alsicle might be influenced by Professor Voladi and Eumidhus.
The lowest level of alter ego-type magic was an alter ego with a clear shape and no movement.
This could be implemented similarly by Lee Han now with fantasy magic.
If you cast < Fahite's Lesser Illusion > and < Ogonin's Mist >, it will look like there are several Yihans from the outside.
In order to go higher here, I had to adjust the shape of the alter ego and incorporate the movements to make it more plausible… It
was < Pengerin's Cold Elemental Ego > magic that succeeded in both of these things.
In other words, the previous stage means that at least one of the forms or movements has been completed.
That alone was at least 3 circles.
“This magic applied a lot of magic from other schools in order not to cast it as a high circle. That’s why there’s a higher level of difficulty…”
‘Are you ignoring what I just said?’
“…You said you were learning transformation magic and enchantment magic, right? You are very lucky.”
“Yes…”
“One thing I regret is that black magic is quite helpful when practicing this alter ego magic. Unlike other summons, undead summons don’t complain even if you use cold elemental magic. That’s why it’s good to practice.”
One of the best ways to practice handling the movements of your multiple clones was to practice with undead minions.
The undead summoned beasts had few complaints and did not reject much even if they were given a weapon with cold element or wrapped around their body with cold element.
Casting cold elemental magic on these undead summons and moving them delicately as you wish became a good practice.
“I also learn that black magic.”
“what!?”
“You said you were learning black magic?”
Eumidhus also said it strangely.
Obviously, when Lee Han talked about the magic he had learned, he was also talking about black magic.
“Is it? what? Why don’t you think you heard?”
“…Anyway, are you saying that summoning the undead of black magic and practicing it will help you a lot?”
Feeling sorry for the black magicians, Lee Han hurriedly changed the topic.
Alcicle nodded.
“The more magic you can cast and the more you try to move yourself, the better. Can you summon the undead?”
“yes. You can summon a skeleton warrior.”
“It’s good. Skeleton Warrior. The more, the better. Could it be up to three?”
“yes.”
“oh! is there any more possible? How many?”
“I can’t move yet, but up to 15…”
“…???”
Alcicle was perplexed in many ways.
It was surprising that the summoned beast could not move once summoned, and it was also surprising that he could summon up to 15 skeleton warriors.
Quite a few summoning wizards would have their souls shattered, their mana drained, or their brains burned…
“I’m learning some old-fashioned black magic.”
When Lee Han explained that he was learning old-fashioned black magic from evil black magicians, Arcicle was very interested.
“That’s why it’s harder to handle…”
“I wish I could practice more! You are so lucky!”
“……”
Lee Han seemed to know why Alsicle was a disciple of Umidhus.
‘I’m the crazy one for expecting it.’
* * *
Surprisingly (Eumidihus, Professor Voladi, and Alcicle were all surprised) Lee Han could not complete the < Pengerin's Ice Elemental Alter > spell for the rest of the time.
Of course, Lee Han was not surprised.
In fact, only the three wizards were surprised.
“Did I teach you wrong…?”
For the first time in his life, Alcicle began to develop a healthy skepticism of his abilities. Seeing this, Eumidhus was amazed.
‘I didn’t expect this much!’
“I’m sorry I taught you wrong.”
“it’s okay.”
“I just need to know.”
“……”
Lee Han glared at Professor Voladi and spoke again.
“I will never forget what you taught me. We will practice again when we return.”
“I want to finish it quickly. I’ll prepare the next magic too. It will be a little more difficult, but you will be fine.”
“…yes.”
Lee Han pondered whether to practice cold elemental magic later.
“really. Can I call you this fall?”
“Autumn is in the middle of the Ein Lorgard semester. Alcicle.”
“Uh… until when is the semester?”
Alsicle counted his fingers on Yumidhus’ answer and calculated it.
If you stay in school until the end of this year…
“You can’t come out?!”
“Then did you think that first-year students could leave school at will?”
Lee Han flinched at Eumidhus’ pathetic words.
‘How did you know?’
“Can I not visit?”
“If outsiders want to visit, they’ll have to get permission from Lord Gonadaltes. It won’t be easy.”
“Ah… a great wizard like Gonadaltes wouldn’t be bothered by that. You will kindly allow it.”
“?”
“?”
Lee Han and Yumidhus were puzzled at the same time.
“That…”
“Well… try your best. Maybe I can ask you well.”
“yes. We look forward to your visit.”
At Lee Han’s words, Alcicle smiled brightly.
“okay! I’ll visit you in the fall!”
“yes.”
As he entered the carriage and left the magic tower, Lee Han looked back. The sight of Alcicle waving his hand left a deep impression on me.
“…You’re not going to be taken to the punishment room after meeting the principal, right?”
“It will probably be fine. … maybe.”
* * *
Diret and his friends moved to the Wodanaz family mansion.
“Seniors. I’ve heard some strange rumors… I heard that the professors fought on the street to drag the first grader of the Wodanaz family away during vacation, but is that really true?”
“Does that make sense?”
“You make some sense.”
Diret’s juniors, who were learning black magic, bruised their friend.
“But why would the blood of the Wodanaj family want to learn black magic?”
“Are you ashamed of black magic?”
“little…?”
“…Actually, me too…”
“Everyone, be quiet.”
Diret made the juniors quiet.
Unlike other schools with many students, Einrogard’s black magic school was small enough that seniors and juniors knew each other by name and face.
that wasn’t bad
He was a black magician who had a hard time making a living. If we didn’t stick together, it would be more difficult.
So, when the time was right, Diret would gather the juniors, introduce them to each other, and have a conversation.
“I’m worried that the juniors of the Wodanaz family will take black magic lightly. Turns out he’s a genius, so he’s learning a lot of other magic, but he might be able to use black magic as an assortment to raise a line in his reputation.”
“I would have said I wasn’t that kind of person.”
The junior, who grumbled at Diret’s warning, shut up.
But the dissatisfaction did not go away.
‘joy. How do you know if you’re ignoring black magic…’
“!!!”
The warlocks who arrived at the Wardanaz family mansion were surprised.
Skeleton warriors were standing in the front yard of the mansion, holding bone swords blowing cold air.
“…look. What did I say?”
“I’m really serious about black magic.”
“It’s the first time I’ve ever seen someone summoning undead in a mansion that size.”
“Aren’t you crazy? What about cleaning…”
The juniors quickly admitted that the freshman of the Wodanaz family was sincere.
But I wasn’t sure if the freshman was sane.
