Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 454

Chapter 454

“They must be preparing for an evil test.”

Lee Han did not trust the headmaster at all.

I’d rather believe that Guinando studied all week than believe that the skeleton headmaster looked over the flooded Einlaward and lamented the suffering of the students.

What exam are you preparing for?

Pajijijijik-

…what are you doing?

Headmaster Skeleton looked at him in dismay at the sight of his apprentice penetrating the several layers of magic barriers he had built around him.

It was absurd that he said goodbye and swam right up to me, but…

‘What an ignorant bastard.’

It was even more absurd to pierce the elaborately crafted magic curtain by ignorantly wielding mana.

With that much magic power, such an ignorant method would be an effective method.

There’s no way the professors at Ein Rogard taught him such an ignorant method, so he would have learned it by himself (if someone taught him, he would have had to be locked up in the punishment room).

Are you from the Wardanaz family?

“I liked the night air, so I went for a swim.”

Breaking my magic?

“I gave it some strength because there was something that got in the way, but I didn’t know it was the principal’s magic.”

Lee Han raised his head above the surface and answered shamelessly.

Unfortunately, Headmaster Skeleton was much more thorough than he thought.

To prevent intrusion by putting up several layers of magic curtains over a fairly wide area centered on oneself.

I felt the thoroughness to prevent even watching from afar.

Isn’t it too early to attack me? Yeah, maybe you can try it soon.

“What nonsense are you talking about? I never thought of attacking the principal! If you, as a disciple, think of attacking your master, would that be a human being?”

Fourth, the second greatest strength is the very loyalty to respect for the teacher. Well, if you wanted to attack, you wouldn’t have done it so sloppy.

Headmaster Skeleton nodded as if he understood.

You must have coveted the treasure hidden in my warehouse and followed it, right? Anyway, all the students are thieves. Every time I turn my eyes, I become frantic to rob my warehouse!

‘Then, could you guarantee me some food, bedding, and experiment materials…’

Lee Han cursed inwardly.

He induced half of it!

Unfortunately, I’m not here today to manage the warehouse.

“Then what are you here for?”

did you say Einrogard is feeling sorry for the suffering of the students because he was submerged in water. I’m here to help the students.

“……”

Lee Han had to grit his teeth to hold back the ‘Ha!’

‘You’re lying really insincerely.’

“Then I will be there to help.”

okay?

Headmaster Skeleton turned his gaze to Lee Han as if he had heard unexpected words.

Lee Han asked as if thinking.

“Are you uncomfortable with me?”

It’s not uncomfortable, but there are times when I just want to squeeze one in.

“……”

It’s a joke.

It wasn’t like a joke, but Lee Han nodded.

If it were the other students, I would have told them not to be foolish and to study, but you… you’ll be fine. okay. help by the side

Skeleton Principal accepted it obediently.

Come to think of it, Lee Han didn’t have to study for the exam, so I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to look ahead at what he’s about to do.

Lee Han was slightly taken aback by the acceptance.

‘what? Not saying no.’

Even if he didn’t completely reject it, he knew that the disturbed headmaster would grumble.

But how can you accept it so easily?

‘Are there other traps? Is it something I can’t recognize even when I look at it from the side? Or even if I recognize it, it doesn’t mean anything…’

As Lee Han immersed himself intently, the headmaster of the skull next to him said in a dumbfounded voice.

What are you doing to help?

* * *

Headmaster Skeleton put a telekinetic hook on the boat Lee Han was riding on and made him follow him quickly.

Originally, the boat, which would have been rowed, ran quickly in pursuit of the headmaster skeleton.

The people of the Empire think that this territory is protected by a great magic barrier.

“Isn’t it?”

That’s not a very wrong idea.

Ein Rogard itself was a gigantic magical presence.

The source and origin of ancient magic that has existed longer than the history of the empire in a place where the flow of magical power is one of the strongest in the entire empire.

It was natural for the people of the empire to harbor illusions as it had never sunk in its long history.

But if magic were so easy and convenient, wizards wouldn’t have given their lives.

The magics applied to Einrogard were so complex and powerful that even the headmaster of the skeleton could not understand them all.

These magics sometimes collided with each other to create unexpected phenomena, and more often, they created holes.

There is nothing that goes well if you leave it without doing anything. Everything needs management. A sword will rust if you don’t clean it, and your clothes will wear out if you don’t take care of them. The same goes for Ein Lorgard.

So, one of the Headmaster Skeleton’s duties was to patrol and check the wide area of Einrogard, and fix problems before they occur.

Occasionally, he catches students who escape…

Besides, when a huge phenomenon like the flood of spirits takes place like now, the magical order of Einrogard is bound to become more and more chaotic and eccentric.

These patrols and repairs were especially essential.

If you see a broken or cracked building or anything out of the ordinary, speak up.

“……”

Lee Han looked at the skeleton headmaster very suspiciously.

The explanation was so plausible that it made me even more suspicious.

‘It makes logical sense. But it’s suspicious.’

Is it really a coincidence that I floated around during the midterm exams, shining my eyes insiniously?

Lee Han didn’t think so.

Why?

“I felt very sorry for the eyes of the outsiders who looked down on the dedication of the principal when he devoted himself like this.”

You are very right. They’re idiots who don’t even know what’s important.

The headmaster skeleton agreed and his eyes flashed.

Then, in the water, the bricks began to attach themselves, and a tower was completed in an instant.

These stupid 3rd graders. If you’ve summoned a being from the dark elemental dimension, you’ll be able to lock it up. You ran away.

“……”

Lee Han doubted his ears.

It’s unavoidable. It’s a waste of the building we built, but… the next graders will use it well. really. If you want to trap your summons, remember this blockade tower.

Headmaster Skeleton gave Lee Han kind advice as much as he helped him with his work.

Of course, the content wasn’t very caring.

But don’t imprison even the weakest ones here. Four wings, six legs, and the weight of eight cornerstones? I’d rather keep this ideal.

“ah. yes.”

You can fix that. Fix it.

“?”

Lee Han blinked as he looked in the direction the headmaster was pointing.

There was nothing.

“What was there originally?”

ah. sorry. I can’t see it in your eyes

Headmaster Skeleton spun three times in the air and then shouted, ‘All students are iron heads’.

Then, in the empty air, an antique, flat stone house appeared.

Can you see the cracks over there? Try repairing it once.

“What building is this?”

Lee Han asked as he pulled the ferry closer to the stone house.

The buildings often seen in schools were usually towers (mostly built by professors) or huts (mostly built by students).

These low-height, high-material structures were not very popular in Ein Lorgard.

It was antique and beautiful, but more important than that was practicality.

Even a roughly built hut made of wood and leather was not a big problem for a wizard who knew how to use magic.

It was a building that a bright student built in the past to raise monsters…

“Oh, it doesn’t look very good for monsters to live in.”

It was a pretty building, but the important thing for the monsters was a wide and good space to run around.

yes. So I built it and didn’t use it much.

‘Isn’t he not very smart?’

Since then, junior students have been using it for other purposes from generation to generation. It may have changed several times. Ten years ago, the quickball club used it as a clubhouse, and five years ago, the wizard card club held a tournament… didn’t it? Was there a fire from a duel before the tournament? It doesn’t really matter. It is now being used as a lodging for properly ‘invited’ guests from the outside.

Skeleton Principal puts his strength in ‘invited’.

It seemed that the guests coming from outside really did not like it.

In any case, as much as it is used as a lodging, it must be properly repaired. Of the elemental magic, you must have mastered all the earth trees and rocks, right?

“no?”

Lee Han was dumbfounded.

Now you know that Lee Han suffers from advanced elements such as lightning, darkness, fire, cold, etc., and you say such a thing?

Oops. I’ll have to tell Bagreck.

“……”

It’s a joke, so don’t stare at me like that. You probably didn’t learn trees or rocks professionally. Because in the first grade, there will be nothing to write about. what about soil?

“I only know how to do the basics.”

Maintain shapeshifting… Do you know how to disassemble? Disassembly is important.

“yes.”

Thankfully, Salco taught me < Dismantling the Tutanta Family Rock > before.

I didn’t master it perfectly, but I was able to use it thanks to my magic.

Then it’s not basic, you iron head.

Headmaster Skeleton bruised Lee Han.

Being humble was not a good habit for a mage.

You may be busy eating, sleeping, and playing like a beast right now, but there will be a lot of construction work in your sophomore year. There’s nothing wrong with learning it now. However, this requires some knowledge of transformation magic… Ah. I was worrying unnecessarily.

Headmaster Skeleton recalled the schools Yihan was listening to and just canceled his words.

“Uh, I’m still not confident about conversion magic…”

Just listen quietly.

Principal Skeleton decided to dismiss 95% of Lee Han’s words as being rude.

* * *

Earth Elemental Magic had a fairly easy level of difficulty.

It was impossible not to be familiar with any wizard as much as living with their feet in the soil.

In addition, unlike fire or water, earth was the easiest to call from the closest.

Other students could do these magics, such as bringing in clay, building shapes, and fixing them firmly.

But now, in order to repair a building made of complex materials, it was necessary to control not only soil but also various elements.

Headmaster Skeleton pushed Yihan to transform rocks into sand and sand into rocks.

Transforming cloth into steel was somehow learned, but converting hard rock into sand wasn’t easy either.

The skeleton principal threw pebbles and sprinkled sand to help the student who was stuck in the wall.

feel it! feel it! The conversion you just made was slow to respond. The conversion just got distracted! Pour more magic power. Anyway, this magic can be left over!

Lee Han desperately learned magic to escape the pebbles and sand hitting his face.

And it really worked.

“…!”

When the damaged part of the stone house was quickly transformed to make the incontinence disappear, Lee Han suddenly felt skeptical about himself.

Why can’t I succeed until I’m hit?

‘Is it right to continue to succeed this way? It’s efficient, but…’

Well done. Those spells will be pretty useful. It’s quite troublesome to handle rocks as they are

…

The two wizards had different thoughts.

“What next?”

Hmm. There was a dock on the lakeside side, but it looks like there will be damage there too. Let’s go there.

“yes. …?”

Lee Han, who nodded and covered his head, felt something strange.

uh?

‘Does it really only repair?’

You really don’t do evil plots or test preparations?
