Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 374
Chapter 374
Since there are no rules in the dimension, strong monsters sometimes pop up where much weaker monsters would otherwise appear.
But a venomous predator in District 2?
It didn’t just end with that guy’s appearance, it meant that the entire area of District 2 was bloody dangerous.
“Let’s lower our voice and get out quietly. I guess I haven’t noticed this yet.”
“ah. I don’t think there was a guy like that in the first place.”
“…of course!”
Dereth almost raised his voice for a moment.
If it was an area where such a guy appeared frequently, how would he have brought his juniors with him?
If it was, the students wouldn’t have come in either.
-■■■■■…
The venomous predator mumbled, turned his head, and spat something out into the bone mound.
Then he grabbed another squishy lump, put it back in his mouth, and started munching.
“…?”
Derrett was embarrassed.
What is it doing?
“senior. As far as I know, a predator is one that grows and strengthens itself by eating and devouring other beings. The fact that such a guy does not swallow it and spit it out like that must be seen as an intention to dedicate it to someone stronger than himself.”
“That kind of…”
Diret, who was surprised by that statement, suddenly felt curious.
No, how did this junior know that…?
“How do you know that?”
“I learned from the professor.”
“Did you learn that in first grade?”
“no. During additional lectures.”
“……”
In the midst of this, Diret had to hold it in to endure the sudden sadness.
“Yes.”
“Why are you turning your head…?”
“Nothing. Anyway, if what you’re saying is true…”
If a venomous predator was chewing the cud to offer it to something stronger than itself, it was creepy in its own right.
Because there are many more dangerous monsters in this area.
“Let’s go back quickly and report.”
“yes.”
Lee Han and Diret quietly lowered their stance and turned around.
However, on the way back, new undead were roaming around. It was a group of Rakemaws.
Diete furrowed his eyebrows.
“It can’t be helped.”
“yes. Get ready to fight…”
“What!? no! We want to go back!”
“Ah, is that so?”
Lee Han lowered his staff with a shy expression.
It became a habit, so I started preparing to fight automatically.
* * *
“Senior! You are back!”
“Did you guys meet too?”
Returning to Professor Mortum’s wand mark, Diret was surprised to find that his juniors had arrived first.
“What do you mean?”
“Predators. We’ve got a poisonous predator on our side. Even the Raccoon Maw…”
“A venomous predator?! It must have been a really big deal.”
The reaction of the juniors was not the reaction of a person who was frightened by the appearance of a strong monster.
It was a reaction that someone who was distracted somewhere would show.
Lee Han whispered in surprise.
“Seeing that they are not afraid of venomous predators, they are all confident in battle…”
“I can’t believe that! What’s up everyone? Why is everyone so excited like they’re drunk?”
“senior. The professor found the ruins!”
“!!!”
Dereth was taken aback.
it’s a relic
It was difficult and rare to find ruins outside of normal conditions, but finding ruins in another dimension was really rare.
There were many wizards who could not find a single ruin in their lifetime, so there is no need to say more about its rarity.
“Jin… Jin… Really?”
“yes!!!”
“…senior. You said it was dangerous when you came earlier…”
Lee Han was taken aback.
Diret’s eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light.
To be specific, it was a little bit like Professor Bollardy or Professor Verdus.
“But originally, other dimensions are dangerous.”
“……”
Lee Han lamented inwardly.
Even Senior Dereth, who was fine, became strange.
‘Is the site of Ein Lorgard bad? Does it corrupt even innocent people?’
“senior. I’m sure we’ll get ready to get out when we arrive earlier…”
Diret had said as he came.
-As long as there are predators in Rakshagwi, there is nothing to gain from wandering around here. I took care of it as much as I took in District 1, so it’s okay to leave District 2 alone. good enough
– But won’t other seniors be dissatisfied when they couldn’t find what they were looking for?
-Don’t worry, I’ll make you listen to me even if I hit you. Junior.
But how does it change like this?
“That is when there are no remains. The ruins are worth the risk.”
Not only Diret, but also the other seniors whispered in possessed voices.
“Junior. lets think. What relics might be inside the ruins?”
“Certainly, if it’s a dark magic artifact, I’m interested, but…”
“Ah. No dark magic artifacts.”
Students reacted decisively.
“Black magic artifacts are not expensive and hard to sell, so the professor will use them for research. It must be another magical artifact. That’s why it’s good to sell.”
“……”
“The professor will return soon and tell you what kind of ruins it is…”
Just then, Professor Mortum rode a skeleton pony and ran. Even though the professor had only been there for a short time, he was still coughing.
“How are you, Professor!?”
“how is it?!”
“Coke. Everyone… you can be happy. It is a proper ruin.”
“Three worlds…!”
“I am so lucky to live here!”
“Do I need to go back to school for the second semester? Can I drop out and throw it in the principal’s face!?”
“Let’s throw together!”
Seeing the happy disciples, Professor Mortum grinned.
Lee Han-do, who did not have high expectations for the ruins, started to feel a little bit excited about the seniors.
Throwing a letter of resignation in the face of the skeleton principal while being among the seniors.
Happy just thinking about it…
“Junior. Which of the words you just said was good?”
Diret was puzzled by Lee Han’s changed reaction.
I was worried until just now, but why all of a sudden?
“It was a little cool that he dropped out of school, so I was impressed. The professor is also very generous.”
“ah.”
Dereth understood what he was talking about.
“They aren’t my favorite disciples, so they don’t really care if they drop out or not, and they don’t let the ones I cherish drop out.”
“…That’s right.”
Lee Han nodded and suddenly became curious.
‘…Can I join the cherished disciple? Not yet?’
* * *
Even if the ruins are the same, there is a difference in their level.
The ruins that wizards liked were ‘normal’ ruins.
No matter what type of ruins there are, there is much to be saved for those without external invasion or looting and weathering.
In comparison, most of the half-broken and ruined ruins were hard to expect. Those ruins were the ruins that made a sigh come out of the wizard’s mouth.
In that respect, the dimensional remains discovered by Professor Mortum were surprising.
Surprisingly, the palace-style ruins remained intact!
The palace, built in an unknown and complex style, stood quietly in the dimension.
“Coke. From now on, you can use any magic. If you feel it is dangerous, use it unconditionally.”
Professor Mortum told the students.
It is said that there is a risk of stimulating the beings of this dimension, but considering the danger around here, I had to be prepared for that much.
“O magic, lose that power. it’s a wall Expand… Let’s go in.”
Professor Mortum led the way by using great magic to prevent the reverberation of the students’ magic from leaking out.
Then, the students also began to prepare for their own exploration.
“Come out, doggie!”
“Ulkas, protect me.”
“Envelop the poisonous fog.”
“Curse, sense hostility…”
From those who summon the undead to those who prepare curse or poison magic.
Diret even took out a miniature crossbow.
“Because of the poison element magic, the chemistry is secretly good… Wait a minute junior.”
“yes?”
Diret, who hadn’t seen Lee Han for a while while preparing for the poison magic, was shocked.
From leopard monsters whose bodies were made of verdant gems to more than ten skeleton warriors.
I couldn’t believe when it had increased that much.
“Are you okay with this?”
“ah. Of course not.”
“okay. If there are too many of them, reducing the number…”
“We need to enchant the undead’s weapons with strengthening magic. It moves slowly, so strengthening magic is essential.”
“…That’s not what I meant. Junior.”
The fighting styles of the warlocks who commanded the undead were varied, but the principle was to send the undead forward to attract the enemy.
In the meantime, the black magician in the rear is attacking or confusing the enemy in various ways.
thud-!
-■■■ ■■■ ■■■…
“It’s out. You are a watchman.”
“Everyone be careful.”
As soon as you pass through the entrance of the palace, golems the size of people walk out from the walls on both sides.
Although it might be surprising, the students slowly calmed down and prepared their magic using the summoned undead as a shield.
The 3rd grade student looked at Lee Han and said.
“look. Even if the enemy comes out, I never panic and stay calm from behind…”
Many wizards would fail their magic due to the tension when they fell into a battle situation, but the black mage had a slightly different story.
While the summoned undead dragged the time, the magic could be completed.
But there were also exceptions.
A person who received rigorous training as a battle mage in the first place and can cast magic quickly even in this situation!
puck!
As Lee Han ferociously rotated the water orb, he knocked over the golem and pounded its torso. The golem, which had received repeated blows, collapsed and revealed its core.
“Thanks for the advice. senior.”
“…That’s right. Did my advice help you a lot?”
Deep inside, he thought that his junior in the third year was a man with no conscience.
* * *
-■■■.
-■■■■■!
One of the summoned Skeleton Warriors confronted the golem with force and pressed it down.
As Professor Mortum waved his wand lightly, the dark element dwelled in his body and its power was further amplified.
Appreciating the professor’s help, the disciples immediately memorized the spell. Then, a corrosive curse was placed on the body of the golem next to it, and the balance collapsed.
“Bone, shoot. Bones explode!”
Another warlock student rammed a bone into the golem’s solid body and exploded it.
Professor Mortum gave an admonition at the loud sound.
“Coke. Attacks are good, but refrain from loud magic.”
“sorry.”
Bone elemental magic, poison elemental magic, and curse magic were linked and exploded, and it was very powerful.
In addition, the undead summons that the wizards had called in advance made sure there were no gaps.
Puck puck puck puck-
“……”
“……”
And Lee Han took the right side by himself and took down the golems that were attacking him.
There was no need for others to help.
Yihan’s skeletons fired bone arrows that frostbitten and poisoned the approaching golems.
The action was slow, but it didn’t matter. More than ten skeleton warriors were threatening power by themselves.
“Bone. Get fired!”
Like other mages, Lee Han used bone elemental magic.
‘Certainly the power of magic…’
He seemed to know the reason for the undead dimension. Even though it was the same bone elemental magic, the power was much more brutal.
“Knock it down quickly. They’re taking all the juniors.”
“I know. Don’t rush!”
Lee Han was just doing it, but the seniors told a different story.
Whispering under the pressure, the seniors who were desperately catching them managed to finish before Lee Han.
When Lee Han finished and looked away, the seniors calmly pretended that nothing had happened.
“Did you catch them all?”
“yes.”
“It’s been a while since we caught them all… well, it’s great.”
“Is that so? It’s amazing!”
Lee Han’s pure admiration made the seniors feel slightly pricked.
…Do I have to go this far to protect my senior’s dignity?!
