Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 495

Chapter 495

Are You Saying That? Are you wearing a snout or a mouth?

“Both are not the same thing…”

If you’ve had that kind of experience, you should learn more advanced magic and prepare to crush your enemies!

Headmaster Skeleton sternly scolded Lee Han.

However, Lee Han’s expression was different from what he expected.

Instead of reflecting and accepting, he was staring at the skeleton headmaster as if he was dumbfounded.

“How can I do more here…”

……

The headmaster of the skull almost convinced himself.

Being an old man, the headmaster of the skull had a slightly more tolerant standard for magic education, but even by ancient standards, Lee Han’s training was harsh now.

However, instead of backing down, the skeleton headmaster yelled.

I can’t reflect on it, but I make excuses!

“No… but how can I practice more here…”

Lee Han asked in bewilderment, but the skeleton headmaster quickly changed the topic.

And it’s not wise to take Bagleg to a suspicious place. If there is a problem, it can be solved, but there will be more problems than that.

‘indeed.’

This time, Lee Han agreed.

Well, taking Professor Voladi to a suspicious place might be like walking into a gunpowder warehouse with a torch.

“I will keep that in mind.”

okay. keep in mind By the way… That magic criminal’s eyes are pretty sharp. recognizing your qualities How do you think you found out? horse power? Or did you overhear the evaluation inside Einrogard? Or I’ve heard rumors about things we did during vacation…

The headmaster of the skeleton was speechless.

Thinking about it while talking, the magical criminal’s eyes weren’t particularly sharp.

If there are a lot of clues like that, even an idiot would say, ‘Huh? That wizard from the Wardanaz family is a bit extraordinary?’

‘I’ll have to pay more attention…’

The other day, when Wardanaz saved the knights from the anti-magic attack, the skeleton headmaster thought too.

That magic criminals might be interested.

However, looking at it this way, it seems that the expectation was correct.

Well, considering Wardanaz’s talent and what he had accomplished, the interest shown by magic criminals was rather late.

Unlike normal wizards with innate magic talent, he knows how to act strategically for his goals and has several schools

.

“ah. Not because of that, but probably because of the Seed Serpent. I used a lot of magic while preparing to subdue the Sea Serpent.”

okay? Well, if it was your mana, it would have been a waste to tie it up behind you.

Headmaster Skeleton immediately understood what he was talking about.

Didn’t not only professors but also students participate in the Sea Serpent Subjugation?

It is standard for professors to directly participate in the frontlines and for students to help with various preparations in the rear, but Wodanaz has long gone beyond the level of an ordinary first year student.

Of course, he would have had them help with the preparations from the front.

If that’s what you guys would have done… Enhancing your equipment? Securing a light source?

“oh. you’re right.”

Lee Han was a little amazed.

As if he was not the principal for nothing, he guessed exactly what Lee Han had done as if he were there.

“Did the professor tell you?”

no. I didn’t ask about that in detail. No matter how much Professor Thunderwalker is more sociable than the other two, there’s nothing good about bothering him too much… Then did the magic criminal approach the magic?

“I don’t think it was that intense.”

It was true that it colored the entire port as bright as daylight, and it was true that Ianob had a strong impression because of it, but Lee Han did not notice it.

Other reasons seemed far more likely.

“I think it might have been a bit too much for the sea serpent to hit the ice arrows or the water octane magic.”

water octane? Of Eumidhus?

“It’s not Yumidhus-sama’s water octane, but I improved it. The professor gave me permission to put my name on it.”

Hey…

The Skeleton Headmaster was delighted with a rare display of emotion.

How rewarding it must be to have Professor Bagreck hound you like a hound on the brink of starvation!

“……”

Lee Han almost straightened up.

If you know that, shouldn’t you stop it?

“I was lucky.”

It’s not luck, it’s skill. No matter how hard he tried, it was not an easy task to improve his level of magic and adapt it to his own needs. After all, trials grow wizards.

“…Maybe it was only possible because of the hard work we had put in until then…”

No. It also requires trials. Even though I had such a precious experience, it’s a pity that I just let it go… Did Professor Baegrek tell me to write a book?

Lee Han was really serious.

Everyone from the principal to the professor was nothing but a son of a bitch.

“yes. You told me.”

Besides summarizing your improved magic, did I tell you to write a book to think about the direction you need to move forward?

“yes.”

okay? Professor Bagreg cares about you very much.

“……”

Lee Han gritted his teeth as he imagined setting up and accusing Headmaster Skeleton and Professor Voladi in the imperial court.

Be careful anyway. If that magical criminal is interested in you, there is a high chance that other magical criminals will also be interested. Originally, only one bee does not attack a fragrant flower.

“Do not worry. I will never be interested in any dubious suggestions or magic.”

As a wizard, why are you so inquisitive!

“……”

The skeleton principal was irrational itself.

Ignoring the suggestions of magical criminals, I had to be curious and persistently explore any magic or suggestion.

However, Lee Han did not waver.

Because the original professors were like that.

‘That’s just noise.’

I have worked hard to fulfill the request… I hope the experience and rewards will become good friends on your magical future.

“I think so too.”

Lee Han replied sincerely, thinking about the gold coins he could receive from this quest.

‘Isn’t it possible to leave gold coins by conducting magic research or experiments as cheaply as possible? I don’t want to waste the money I earned through blood and sweat on magic.’

for a moment.

Headmaster Skeleton suddenly paused.

Lee Han flinched, wondering if his thoughts had been caught.

“Why is that?”

Did you say you hit the sea serpent with a water octane?

“I also hit a frost arrow.”

It’s not that important… How did you fit it?

“?”

Lee Han tilted his head.

“Are you aiming well?”

…I got the question wrong. No matter how much you prepared in front of you, if the monster came out, you would have fallen back, so how did you hit it there?

“Ah… Because there was a minor misunderstanding, I also fought with the professors.”

……

Skeleton Principal didn’t say anything and was silent.

Lee Han asked in bewilderment.

“principal?”

Send this to Professor Thunderwalker.

Instead of answering, the skeleton principal wrote a note and had the Death Knight run an errand.

Lee Han was concerned about what was written on the note.

I think there was a phrase at the top that said, ‘You are already dead’…

I will never believe in the future that you are not curious or interested.

“No, it was a misunderstanding! really!”

Puck or something.

Skeleton Principal said with a sneer.

A wizard pretending to be the most humble in the empire and being so arrogant.

right. I almost forgot… Tell the students who participated in the quest that they can take a day off on Friday.

The students who remained at the school were struggling not only with lectures but also with flood restoration work.

However, since the other students returned after completing their requests outside, they had to take a break for a day or so and give them time to complete their travels.

“Are you sure?”

Lee Han was slightly moved.

I never thought the Headmaster Skeleton would show such consideration.

‘Maybe he’s aiming for this kind of effect and acting like a dog on a regular basis?’

Since we usually act like dogs, there were times when we had the illusion of ‘Does the principal actually take care of us a lot?’

okay. On weekends, I have to do the duties assigned to each tower, but that’s unavoidable

…

Lee Han lowered his head and prepared to leave.

Then, the headmaster of the skeleton asked in a puzzled way.

Where are you going?

“yes? Take a break…”

You should learn magic at a time like this. How many more days will you rest without lectures? sit down Didn’t you say you wanted to learn about Antagondals’ artifacts? I’ll let you know as a reward for the hard work on the quest.

“…….”

Lee Han felt a burning hatred for the empire’s magic criminals.

They are like savage men who disrupt the order of the empire!

* * *

Headmaster Skeleton sat Lee Han down and took out the artifacts captured in the previous battle.

And he took out the artifacts confiscated from Ianob, and also took out the artifacts he had never seen before.

The last artifact was painted black with dried blood.

“……”

Oops. You said to wipe it clean.

-sorry.

The Death Knight quickly took the artifact and brought a clean artifact.

Headmaster Skeleton said casually.

The other day, one of the criminals roughed up the resistance. ruler. look All of these artifacts were made and used by magic criminals. What do you see in common here?

Lee Han immediately tried to open his mouth.

Seeing the disciple’s clever appearance, the Headmaster Skeleton felt better again.

Until just now, Professor Thunderwalker was full of anger, but it was magic that made the wizard feel better.

“All of them not only used expensive jewels, but also wore extravagant decorations. The ring-shaped ornament drawn on the side doesn’t have much effect on magic, but because of the appearance…”

…other than that.

Seeing the disciple reciting the part he hadn’t paid any attention to, not crazy about gold coins, the skeleton headmaster resisted wanting to hit him once.

“You mean other than that? I don’t know much about it other than that my magic power is unstable.”

okay. You said that your magic power is unstable. And usually wizards put more importance on those useless trinket decorations.

“Is that so? I think the latter is more important…”

Headmaster Skeleton didn’t want to hear Lee Han keep talking nonsense, so he quickly continued his words.

Magic criminals use all sorts of ways to amplify their magical powers. Many of those methods were forbidden by the Empire…

The Skeleton Headmaster suddenly changed into a human form and cut off his little finger.

The finger suddenly fell to the floor, and along with a bizarre pattern, a mad flow of magical power burst out.

“Is it like human sacrifice?”

okay. Secret arts that sacrifice life or body have been popular since time immemorial. From my point of view, it’s close to the outbursts of incompetent bastards.

“Professor Baegrek also uses blood magic.”

right. It’s because Professor Bagreck isn’t rich either. Being a lich would be so much better.

“……”

Lee Han tried to say something, but didn’t say anything.

It was because he respected the headmaster’s race.

I’ll clarify in advance lest you misunderstand. The reason I don’t share these mysteries without any restrictions is because they are dangerous and unstable and can even kill the caster.

“uh… Isn’t that obvious?”

To be honest, Lee Han had no complaints even if I taught him anything and everything.

Just because magic criminals increase the efficiency of magic in some bizarre way, there was no law that Lee Han had to do so.

It’s not like you’ll die if you don’t increase efficiency…

All the guys I’ve taught say that I’m hiding it because they think I’m jealous of them.

‘Um. As expected, the teacher and the disciple.’
