Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 535

Chapter 535

After somehow calming Ipadur, who is seriously concerned about the health of the first year students, the skeleton headmaster moves on to more important topics.

“Right now, that’s not what’s important. I told you to practice music magic, but it’s not like I’m doing the basics of the language for nothing. I really want It’s like wielding a dragon slaying knife to catch a chicken…”

“But didn’t you succeed in the music magic?”

The old turtle beastman was puzzled by the headmaster’s words.

Unlike Headmaster Skeleton, who values the logic contained in it, Ipadur, who has a lot of interest in music magic, can only do so if the music magic succeeds.

Whether they succeeded by casually calling them or by using the core part of the spirit, it doesn’t matter much…

‘This is why they are non-magicians.’

Headmaster Skeleton cursed the minstrel inwardly.

Those who do not always risk their lives in magic do not understand real wizards.

If you are on the road and a boy is working in the field with a golden knife, you should let him find his aptitude even by slapping him on the cheek.

“When you hear Wardanaz, you will understand. Wodanaz. come here for a while Um… no. Let’s talk for a while.”

Headmaster Skeleton, who was about to speak in front of Ipadur, immediately changed his words.

Come to think of it, old Wodanaj might be needlessly stubborn because of the insults he heard earlier.

‘A narrow-minded fellow.’

“Why is that?”

“Do you know what you just did?”

“Music magic?”

“…listen carefully.”

Headmaster Skeleton explained as kindly as possible.

What you’re doing right now isn’t generally known music magic, but you’re just passing around a little bit of magic, and what you’ve done is a basic but core area of high-level magic called Word Spirit… “Uh

. But you succeeded anyway, didn’t you?”

‘I’m glad I got rid of the bard.’

Headmaster Skeleton thought so and said.

“Once you’ve entered the basics of the Word Magic, you should try the Word Magic. Why waste your time on useless nonsense like music magic?”

“no. Isn’t it the principal who supported the seniors to study music magic…”

Seeing the disciple wielding the truth sharply, the skeleton principal ignored it as if he hadn’t heard.

“Although I don’t know much about spirit magic, isn’t it quite high-level magic?”

“yes.”

Just as Lee Han didn’t challenge the principal’s unique world magic since he was in the first year because he had a lot of magic power, so did Unling.

It was a magic that was too difficult to challenge right away just because he had set foot on the foundation.

“However, the basic part you just completed is the most important and essential part of the spirit magic. Most mages fail because they can’t do that.”

Basically, the magician’s incantation was a representation of will and close to a powerful autosuggestion.

No matter how small and insignificant a change, changing the world with individual will is an act of arrogance.

Even a trained wizard could shake his will and lose his concentration with a single falling leaf, so self-suggestions like spells were essential.

But now, if you start to put magic into this simple tool, the spell itself, it becomes an initiation into a higher realm, the Word Spirit.

Once this was done, it was like standing at the starting line of magic, and most of the wizards were thrown out because they couldn’t do it.

This had nothing to do with other magical talents.

Even those who were born with the amount of magical power, had an excellent sense of magical power, or possessed genius intelligence, and those who were not suited for it, simply couldn’t do it.

As such, Wodanaz was grateful for his luck and had to study hard for the Word Magic.

I have a lot to study right now, but what can I do?

“Uh…but it won’t take long anyway, will it?”

Lee Han was also well aware of the notoriety of the language magic.

I heard that there are many wizards who can’t learn even if they train for the rest of their lives.

“Mmm.”

The Headmaster Skeleton, worried, opened a finger.

“Really, from now on, I will spend my free time…”

“Where is my free time?”

“Why don’t you abandon your friends? Anyway, if I spend all my spare time…”

“One year?”

“Are you crazy?”

“No… It’s so frustrating if you can’t see anything after spending about a year. You may not have any talent. Could it be ten years?”

Lee Han thought a little about what to do if it took about ten years.

Should I do it in my free time?

But ten years to do my best?

‘I think the value for money is too poor.’

“A hundred years…”

“……”

Lee Han glared at him with a straight face.

The skeleton headmaster said with a slight regret.

“I rated you highly and made it really short!”

“ah. yes. thank you.”

Lee Han neatly threw away his lingering attachment to the magic of words.

No matter how I looked at it, there was nothing good to dig.

“principal. I think music magic might be better.”

“Are you saying that I said a servant? What the hell did I do to you? Ever since you came in, I’ve taken care of you physically and mentally!”

Lee Han ignored the headmaster’s bullshit.

The moment I refuted such a thing, it was like falling into a trap.

“Music magic also has its advantages.”

“What advantages? The advantage of being able to extort research grants from idiots?”

Headmaster Skeleton continued to grumble, but Lee Han did not waver.

“First of all, the language magic is too difficult to learn. In comparison, music magic is much easier. How do you think of it as lower-level speech magic?”

“hmm.”

As soon as the story of magic came out, the Headmaster Skeleton’s expression became serious.

“Just studying for 100 years and learning the magic of the tongue…” ”

I know the principal doesn’t like it, but isn’t magic with a low level of difficulty worthwhile?”

The low difficulty magic was meaningful as it was.

It was because not only the low-level wizards, but also the high-level wizards didn’t cast high-difficulty magic every time.

Of course, it wasn’t for the Archmage who was about the size of the skeleton headmaster…

“I understand what you mean.”

“Yes?”

“But it’s just that idiots from other magic schools can make it by studying hard. Even if you really really concede and the idiots in Einrogard do it, why would you?”

‘I’ll be thrilled.’

Lee Han did not lose patience and persuaded him again.

Music magic is much easier than Eonryung, so it is accessible, and music magic has its own advantages. Regardless of the distance, this special feature that works by hearing must have a use…

After persistent persuasion, the headmaster finally gave up his stubbornness and admitted it.

“…yeah that’s good! The direction you just showed was definitely meaningful. I’ll give you permission to start researching in that direction.”

‘done!’

Lee Han was relieved.

Headmaster Skeleton sighed and called to Ipadour.

The old bard who had been waiting jumped in delight at the direction of the positive story.

“I am really happy. Gonadaltes Ball. Thank you! There will be great progress in students’ music magic research in the future!”

“haha. I haven’t done anything But if you’re willing to compose a song in praise of Einrogard, I won’t refuse.”

While Ipadur, who was in high spirits, thanked the choir members, the skeleton headmaster grumbled again while looking at Lee Han.

“I really want it. I didn’t know you guys would love music so much, Wodanaz.”

“Am I? Why did you think that?”

“If you don’t like music, there’s no reason to defend the magic of music so much. Judging from what just happened, you should be required to participate in the study.”

There are two new directions for the music magic just shown.

To increase the density of magical power around you and to put magical energy into the caster’s words.

Both were possible only for Lee Han in the current situation.

“…wouldn’t it be possible to use artifacts to increase magic density?”

“Did you contact His Majesty directly to get the cost?”

When the skeleton headmaster questioned, Lee Han desperately searched for a way out.

“Why don’t you bring a wizard who can cast the spirit magic?”

“If I ask a wizard who knows how to use language magic to help me research something like music magic, they’ll say ‘go away’ or ‘disappear’.”

“……”

“…You can’t…”

“Thank you, Lord Gonadaltes! Let’s go to the next place!”

* * *

The next place we headed was a vineyard located down the river from the village.

The owner of this < Broken Horseshoe > farm, which also serves as a brewery, was a large orc who was famous for his singing skills in the neighborhood.

In particular, they were famous for having a glass of wine made in their own winery, which made their workmanship even more amazing.

“hmm. The workmanship is quite good.”

Skeleton Headmaster moved his eyebrows very finely and evaluated them.

Lee Han was very surprised by those words. If the Headmaster Skeleton said that much, it was already highly praised.

‘If I can invest in that farm later, I’ll try investing.’

“Can I listen to the song?”

“It is an honor!”

The owner of the oak drank a glass of wine and began to sing loudly.

“Ah, life is as fleeting as a glass of wine! We all drank…”

Lee Han listened with a thoughtless yawn.

After the song ended, the owner of the orc embarrassedly made an excuse.

“I guess it’s because this wine isn’t good. The last time I drank and sang, everyone around me was obviously drunk.”

“You can.”

Ifadur spoke kindly and nodded.

Singing was a matter of course as it depends on people’s emotions.

“Are you a Wardanaj student? Can I ask you one more favor this time…”

“Yes.”

Lee Han, who had finished clearing his mind on the way here, went closer while clearing his throat.

It was bittersweet to have more magic to learn, but what can I do?

And it was originally one, but when it increased to two, it felt big, but when it increased from 99 to 100, the impact was less.

I don’t know if I should consider this fortunate…

“Ah, life is as fleeting as a glass of wine! We all drink…”

As before, the concentration of magical power around them increased, and a resonance effect arose with their voices.

Headmaster Skeleton observed closely that the workers around him were getting drunk just by hearing his voice.

But nothing happened.

“?”

“…?”

“I will try again.”

Lee Han panicked and tried again. However, no matter how many times, the magical phenomenon of music did not occur.

“I don’t know what the problem is. What mistake have I made?”

“No…”

Headmaster Skeleton and Ipadur looked at the pupil as if they couldn’t understand more.

“Did you tell me? Primitive magic is heavily influenced by emotions. It might not come out.”

“Prince Gonadaltes is right. It was great that I succeeded earlier, but it is not strange that I failed now.”

At the consolation of the two, Lee Han nodded.

‘It’s dangerous if other songs also fail.’

If Lee Han, the only breakthrough, was blocked, it would be impossible to even start.

Since the beginning of the plan to produce results and imprint on Ipadur while still learning… * *

Next was the Knights.

Nogisa, who is said to have once raised his comrades from being ambushed and knocked down with just one song, sang in a muddy voice.

“Oh, there a knight goes, he dies by an arrow, he dies by an arrow, he dies by a mace, he dies by a

sword, he dies by a spear…” .”

The knights listening from the side were startled by the sudden turn of energy.

“Amazing… amazing! Lord Gonadaltes!”

“I never really thought that just listening to music could have such power! To be honest, I thought you were bluffing…”

Fortunately, Lee Han let out a sigh of relief when he succeeded this time.

The skeleton principal stared at Lee Han.

“Why is that?”

“No… I just thought it suited your personality.”

“???”
