Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 468
Chapter 468
The picnic came to an end with the talent show.
The one who received the most attention was the princess. Despite the fact that the spirits were becoming ferocious due to the flood, the princess skillfully appeased them and showed the magic connection, making Lee Han sullen.
‘Why do spirits who usually listen so well run rampant like crazy undead when they see me?’
Everyone enjoyed the picnic, so go back and study harder.
“……”
“……”
Why no answer? Do you want more picnics?
“Thank you for the grace!”
“I will study hard!!”
Lee Han was slightly impressed as he saw the pupils’ eyes burning with miasma.
No matter how much Lee Han said, ‘Please study, shouldn’t you be avoiding failing grades?’
‘Did you prepare for the picnic today with this in mind?’
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
The skeleton principal laughed happily as if the anger of the students had relieved his mood.
Seeing that, Lee Han canceled the thoughts he had just had.
‘I guess he was just bored.’
* * *
The < Advanced Imperial Geometry and Advanced Arithmetic > test was conducted in a dry classroom.
The students were thrilled just to be able to write with a quill and ink while sitting on a chair in front of their desk.
“This is a test…!”
“If it’s a test like this, I can take as many as possible!”
Of course, I was thrilled until I received a problem. The faces of the students who received the problem were distorted.
The Imperial Mage Tadingo decided to accurately calculate the area of the tower in order to receive funding for his research…
“Damn it, Tadingo. You will earn it.”
“Damn the Empire. You’re acting dirty with one research fund. Why do we need to calculate the area?”
“Everyone be quiet.”
Professor Alpen issued a warning to the murmuring students.
The students grunted and focused on the problem.
What is the area of the following figures?
What is the area of the circles shown below?
While his friends were in agony, Lee Han
was baffled instead of quickly… ….
‘Isn’t it too difficult than I thought?’
Unlike other lectures, this lecture on arithmetic was one of the fields Lee Han was good at.
Of course, while my friends were studying in a hurry, ‘tsk tsk, I should have studied normally’…
Imperial Wizard Tadingo is watching the fireball fly from 1m away from the target. At this time, if the differential coefficient specified in the figure is 20m per second, the ratio of the pupil movement angle of the wizard Tadingo is…
“????”
No matter how you think about it, it was too difficult.
I wondered if my friends could solve this.
‘Did the Headmaster of Skeleton incite me?’
If the angry skeleton headmaster had threatened with a knife from behind, he wouldn’t have been able to help even Professor Alpen.
Lee Han stopped worrying and decided to solve the problem first. The time is fixed, and Lee Han could make a mistake as much as he had been solving difficult problems for the first time in a long time.
‘It’s been a while since I’ve touched such a difficult problem…’
Still, as I started counting while scribbling with a quill to see if what I had accumulated had gone anywhere, I somehow got a clue.
“Keuheu yea.”
“Crazy Tadingo kid… just live calmly…”
“How can I solve this…”
As if it couldn’t be helped despite Professor Alpen’s warning, the students periodically burst out singing.
Lee Han understood.
If Lee Han is this difficult, how difficult is it for other friends?
‘The problem is a little too difficult. The results of this test will be downgraded.’
It is not easy even for seasoned professors to match the difficulty level of the exam.
Lee Han expected that Professor Alpen would reflect on himself and lower the difficulty level of the final exam after this exam.
“I will submit it.”
“Hmm… great. I was worried, but you did well.”
Upon receiving Lee Han’s answer sheet that he submitted first, Professor Alpen glanced over and nodded with a satisfied smile.
If it was Lee Han, he would have noticed the discomfort felt in ‘I Was Worried’, but Lee Han, who was already exhausted from a tiring picnic and solving difficult exam questions, did not notice the discomfort.
“stop. Everyone to submit.”
While sitting and waiting, the exam was over and the students submitted their answer sheets with gloomy expressions.
All of the friends who submitted the answer sheet rushed forward to Lee Han.
“Wardanaz. What was the answer to question 1???”
“hey. 1 was easy. What if I ask you about it? three right? Wodanaz?”
“There were three!? shit. I was debating whether to do two or three… Why is Tadingo so greedy? I’ll just eat whatever you give me in moderation!”
“???”
While listening to his friends’ raucous questions, Lee Han felt something strange.
what?
“Two or three… What are you talking about? What was the problem?”
“How many of the finest white bread can poor wizard Tadingo eat while saving his research funds as much as possible?”
“When the distance between the Pegasus and the ground stables specified in the figure is changing at the rate of the differential coefficient of 400 km/h, the altitude of the Pegasus… wait. How many breads?”
Lee Han definitely felt strange.
The test papers his friends had written and the papers he had taken were very different.
I thought the order of the problems was different, but it wasn’t either. First of all, it seemed that none of Lee Han’s friends had solved the problem.
“What magic is it?”
“what is that?”
“…professor. professor??”
Lee Han quickly caught up with Professor Alpen, who was about to leave, and asked.
“There seems to be something wrong with the test.”
“Strange. Wardanaz County. The military must have had a perfect score? What was the problem?”
Professor Alpen was puzzled and pulled out an answer sheet.
Lee Han said calmly.
“It’s not that the test questions are strange, it seems that I took a different test than my other friends.”
“ah. did you say that okay. Mr. Wardanaz has another problem.”
Professor Alpen spoke naturally, as if to say ‘It rained this morning’.
Of course, Lee Han could not accept it naturally. Confused by the professor’s words that disrupted common sense, he asked again.
“Isn’t that a mistake?”
“Why do you think it was a mistake? I assure you, it was absolutely no mistake.”
“…Uh Professor. Isn’t that… if you take the same lecture, you take the same exam?”
Lee Han asked, holding back the feeling of being an idiot for saying something too obvious.
“Originally it is. But there are exceptions to the law. Wouldn’t it be a challenge if you were given a problem that was so easy to solve with your eyes closed?”
“……”
‘Are you crazy?’
Lee Han was still very embarrassed when he faced the calm madness of Professor Alpen Knighton, whom he had thought would be somewhat sane since he had been an imperial official.
‘I looked down on Einrogard again!’
Even though I promised myself that I would never look down on you again, I was inadvertently beaten.
Lee Han blamed his own complacency.
“Right… I see. So, I solved problems well during lectures, and the difficulty of the test went up…” “
Rather than that, I decided to look at how well I teach other students. That didn’t seem to make any sense.”
Lee Han casually looked at his friends leaving the classroom.
Suddenly they seemed enemies rather than friends.
“By the way, Professor. That…learning and challenge… Anyway, everything is good, but points are included in the evaluation.”
Professor Alpen nodded.
“I will be comparing myself to other students. Wouldn’t there be an equity issue?”
“It’s okay not to worry about that.”
“oh. You must have a way.”
Lee Han was slightly relieved. Even though Professor Alpen isn’t even the skeleton principal, he would have given only
Lee Han a
difficult problem without thinking… “Wodanaz-kun got a perfect score anyway, so he’s the top.”
“……”
‘Are you really crazy?’
Lee Han had to try to put up with the rebuttal that crawled out of his throat.
No, it’s a perfect score because I worked hard and got lucky. If I made a single mistake, it would be deducted right away, but what if I did… ”
At the end of the term…”
Do you understand that I don’t have to worry anymore?”
Professor Alpen cut off Lee Han’s words and continued his own. There were no horse robbers.
“No, that’s logical…”
“I thought that Mr. Wardanaz wouldn’t care about grades…”
“Yes?”
It was the most insulting misunderstanding among all the misunderstandings I received after entering school.
“Well, as much as you care about your friends, it’s only natural that you ask them. Are you asking this in case you received special favors?”
The old professor looked at Lee Han with a heartwarming gaze, as if he were looking at a future archmage.
Usually a wizard with even a small talent could easily fall into arrogance and self-righteousness because of that talent, but this boy from the Wodanaz family did not lose his altruism even though he had a talent like a great sea.
If all wizards were like this, how comfortable would the imperial officials be?
“There was no such privilege, so you don’t have to worry. Solving more difficult problems than others is not a privilege. Oh, of course, if you’re a sincere and fair boy, you might think it’s a preferential treatment.”
“…yes. Anyway, the perks are something I’m a bit uncomfortable with…’
‘But no one except Mr. Wardanaz would consider it a perk. Above all, it would be more damaging for Wodanaz-kun, who has to take countless lectures in his second year, to waste his time in vain. The same goes for all people in the empire.”
Lee Han was speechless.
It wasn’t because it was logical and reasonable, but because Lee Han was shocked by the professor’s rhetoric, which brought people from the Empire to solve more difficult problems.
‘Are you really, really crazy?!’
Professor Alpen ended the conversation with a benevolent face.
“This must be the reward of putting down paperweights and wads of paper and teaching students at Einrogard… Oops. Too many words. Let me go. really. Mr. Wardanaz?”
“yes?”
Lee Han, whose mental strength was exhausted, answered indifferently.
“The remaining lectures of this semester will serve as a solid foundation for Mr. Wodanaj’s research.”
“……”
In Lee Han’s eyes, the kind old professor’s face looked like a skeleton headmaster.

Richmond of the Shiles family sat and rolled around in his room.
At first, it was nice to be able to rest on a soft and dry bed when my friends were having a hard time, but as time passed, I became worried about my friends.
“professor. Have your friends not come yet?”
“It will take a while.”
“okay.”
10 minutes later.
Richmond folded the book he was reading and asked outside the door again.
“professor. When will your friends come?”
“ah. Can’t you just keep your mouth shut!”
Unfortunately, the other persona of Professor Passelette bursts out from inside and yells loudly.
Richmond lowered his head in surprise.
“I’m sorry.”
“no. sorry. Dirty temper…”
“…What is dirty!! If you left your friends and came in, just have fun!”
Before he could finish speaking, a voice with a completely different resonance flowed from the professor’s mouth.
Then Richmond’s guilt multiplied.
‘shit. Wasn’t it the professor’s suggestion?’
At first, when Professor Passelette came and suggested ‘comfortable rest, comfortable warmth, and soft bed’, I accepted it because I thought it was luck… As time passed, I missed my friends
.
And most of all, I was so afraid of Professor Passelette, who came and went as if he were having a conversation with a group of people.
‘If you somehow throw a clue out the window… uh?’
Richmond was startled to see the familiar face of his friend under the high window.
Surprisingly, Wodanaj had come to the bottom of the tower and was walking around.
‘Here! Wodanaz! It’s here!’
Richmond wanted to shout, but there was no way to convey the sound.
And if Wodanaz leaves…
‘Yeah. Make a rope using a blanket and blanket. With transformation magic…’
Bang!
The windows were blown away with a ferocious sound. Richmond, who was making the rope, blinked in surprise.
Wardanaz was flying through the sky driving a griffon.
