Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 578
Chapter 578
Fortunately, the headmaster of the skull did not show much reaction to the death knights’ quarreling.
It was evident that he was pondering what would happen if he met the Emperor face-to-face.
Um… I’m anxious.
After thinking deeply for a long time, the Headmaster Skeleton let out a quiet voice.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t see a future that would end well when I met His Majesty the Emperor with Lee Han.
“Wouldn’t it be okay if I spoke well to the student of Wardanaz…?”
Iunrade looked at her and spoke cautiously.
In fact, Iunrade didn’t quite understand why the skeleton headmaster was so worried.
“Of course, even in the second semester, I did too much for a freshman, but you will be kind enough to understand. And during summer vacation, you really couldn’t help it, right?”
-I. Unrade Lee. Do you know that you caught the Sea Serpent?
– By the way, there is more than that.
“yes?”
Iunrade hesitated.
After thinking for a moment, Iunrade immediately said.
“How will His Majesty the Emperor know if I talk well to the Wodanaz students and keep everyone quiet?”
-You’re not an Einrogard graduate for nothing.
– Look at that terrible thought.
The Death Knights whispered, but Iunrade didn’t care.
Isn’t this what everyone does for a living?
Those who reacted slowly could not survive Einrogard.
I was thinking of doing it, of course. In the first place, there is no need to worry about making a mistake with Wodanaz…
Until now, there have been many types of geniuses in Einrogard, but there are very few geniuses like Lee Han who are quick-witted, sociable, and versatile in all fields.
As most of the geniuses are those whose ability is pointedly concentrated in one field they like, Lee Han’s smoothness like that was even more conspicuous.
“Wouldn’t that be even better?”
That’s why you can’t be the chief.
‘No…’
Iunrade was unfair.
Do you have to be scolded for your grades even after graduation?
-master. I wonder what are you worried about?
-you’re right. If it’s Mr. Wardanaz, if you explain the situation, we’ll cooperate well.
maybe you guys are right
Headmaster Skeleton readily acknowledged it.
His attitude surprised others even more.
But his madness is difficult for a good archmage like me to predict…
‘What nonsense.’
Iunrade snorted inwardly.
The headmaster of the skull is crazy about others.
Moreover, to a good freshman like a student at Wardanaz?
You must have cursed at me right now. I’m sorry.
“Oh no!”
I understand. A guy like you who hasn’t even been a senior is at an unknown level. But to me, his madness…
BANG!!!
There was an explosion in the front yard of the main building.
The principal and Iunrade Death Knight approached the window and looked down.
The golem, which looked like it was made by patching up all sorts of scraps, was advancing forward with a grotesque sound.
-Professor Verdus. please help! We must stop him!
-why? You roll well. If you stop now, you’ll hit the golem?
-If we go on like this, we will destroy everything on the path!
-Why are you here now? You must have known.
– No, the professor said it was okay! He told me to make it because it’s okay…
-Yes. Are you okay? Ignore it and even make a golem. don’t stop
“…That one. Did you make a golem out of junk?”
Iunrade doubted his eyes.
He himself had taken the test of making instant artifacts out of discarded and broken objects during the final exams of the first year, but at most only pure water artifacts and location detection artifacts.
No matter how low-level, even if it was temporary, only a first-year student made a rolling golem with a power source.
Even with junk???!
did you see
The Skeleton Principal said without surprise.
That’s his madness.
It was Wodanaz’s problem that even if he looked fine, he would do crazy things whenever he had an opportunity next to him.
If I went to the imperial palace and one of the officials joked, ‘I’ve learned from Prince Gonadaltes, I’ll catch the devil duke haha’, he might say ‘Okay, I’ll catch it’ and do a sword dance.
‘And the emperor and officials will ask me to take responsibility.’
When I thought that officials and even the emperor would say things like, ‘What kind of education did you usually give me?’, ‘That unscrupulous archmage is abusing his students in an ancient way’, I felt so unfair that my missing heart pulsated.
Why do you think it’s your own fault for your disciple to do crazy things on his own?
“Shouldn’t you dry it? If that golem explodes, there will be an accident!”
The reason the golem was dangerous was because of its power source.
In order to move that size, the amount of power required inevitably increased, and of course, a fairly powerful artifact had to be used as a power source… …If you made a mistake or
mishandled it, the imperial newspaper reported < Another explosion in the Golem Guild! > Articles such as < The city committee clarified that the golem guild should be expelled to the outskirts of the city... > would just go up.
Leave it alone. you will do well
“No… I have to meet Your Majesty soon, but I have to stop it!”
No matter how much I thought about it, the explosion I had suffered a few weeks before meeting His Majesty could not have been good emotionally.
How much better the atmosphere would be if you could face the Emperor and say, ‘I’ve been through an explosion a few weeks ago.’
I’m going to go to the middle of the day!
However, the golem lost its power and stopped exactly as Iunrade’s cry put it to shame.
In the distance, in the front yard of the main building, standing on a suspended golem, the freshman of the Wardanaz family landed with a curse.
The golem’s power source was in his hand.
Surprisingly, that freshman pulled the power source from the moving golem’s torso!
It was a gigantic feat that was hard to believe.
– I will never believe your suggestion again!
-uh? why? why are you angry Didn’t you make the golem thanks to me?
– Did you make this! I almost died with you!
– Did you stop it well?
The conversation ended there.
It was because other friends hurriedly stopped Lee Han, who was about to run into Professor Verdus.
– You hold on! Wodanaz!
– It’s the professor! professor!!
* * *
After entering Einrogard, Lee Han thought about it hundreds of times.
‘To trust the professor!’
“…Cheer. Wodanaz.”
“But the test is over.”
“okay. The test is over.”
It was a mistake to accept Professor Verdus’s offer during the final exam.
– It’s done. professor.
-uh? Is this all?
-…wasn’t it well made? It’s supposed to be a defense, but…
-Ah. Let’s make something more fun. You can make it.
-for a moment. The other students just let me through, but why only me…
-Look at this. see this? What is this?
-I do not know?
-This is the part I used for the legs of the wooden golem. This? It’s the arm of a bronze scavenger golem. Again… here it is. This is the golem’s helmet for hand-to-hand combat. ruler. got it?
-…I do not know??
-you idiot? Combine these to make a golem!
-…yes?? is that possible? I’ve never made a golem before, so maybe golems shouldn’t be made in rags like this…
– It’s okay. are you okay. ruler. The magic circle remains here. Putting these parts together is much easier than making it from scratch.
-Certainly assembly is easier than making something out of nothing, but isn’t that when they are originally made of the same golem? I’ve heard that combining parts from different golems can backfire. No, it wouldn’t even work in the first place…
– No. are you okay. I saw it was fine.
-Are you really okay?
-then!
-…Then I’ll give it a try…
Lee Han, who fell for Professor Verdus’ evil and irresponsible whispers, managed to bind, combine, and connect the parts of the different golems somehow.
Errors caused by different calculations of magic circuits or magic circles were simply blown into those parts with magic power and crushed.
After making various repairs to the half-damaged power source, I infused magic with the single-minded determination to make it work…
-Move! No, I really didn’t think it would move…
-I told you to make it.
-for a moment. professor. The golem moves freely, but what about the activation word or command?
When creating a golem, it was common sense to insert a trigger word or command to activate and control the golem.
In the case of a chimera golem made of different parts like this one, Professor Verdus must have figured it out in advance.
-Isn’t there such a thing?
-yes?
-There is no such thing. I connected different parts, but there can’t be such a thing.
– Then how do you order?
-I have to make it now.
-…Are they moving now?
-Make it from above and put it in.
-I never learned that!
-okay? book here.
-Professor Verdus. please help! We must stop him!
-why? You roll well. If you stop now, you’ll hit the golem?
…I ended up going through these things.
After contacting the golem’s magic circuit and injecting magic power into it, it stopped its movement with force and then managed to pull out the power source.
“I should have just turned in.”
‘Isn’t Wardanaz having some problems too?’
Salko thought seriously.
If it had been Salchow, he would never have accepted it when Professor Verdus said such a thing.
It was impossible to assemble scraps and activate the golem.
“Salcho? What are you thinking?”
“Oh no. I thought Professor Verdus was a truly evil person. If it were our stonemason’s guild, a person like that would have been beaten to death by kneeling down and placing a large rock on top of him!”
“Oh… such a good way?”
Lee Han put on a sympathetic expression. Seeing this, Salcho felt anew that there was a deep hatred in his friend’s heart.
“Wardanaz. Let’s go prepare for the lightning-walking professor’s exam.”
“that’s right. Forget Professor Verdus.”
With the support of his friends, Lee Han’s expression softened a little.
At that time, students who did not listen to grant magic appeared from afar.
“hey. I heard you made an accident while taking the test?”
“What mistake did the golem crawl out of? Study grant magic properly… Ugh! evil! Wodanaz! Why are you doing this! What did we do wrong!”
The students who were just trying to play lightly ran away in fright from the bloody flying water beads.
He hadn’t even thought of it as a mistake by Wardanaz.
* * *
“It’s a Pegasus!!!!”
Before I even got to the exam hall, I heard excited voices from other students.
Friends who were walking with Lee Han also widened their eyes at the word Pegasus.
“Pegasus?!”
“That Pegasus…!?”
There were many rare phantom beasts in the empire, but Pegasus was very popular among them.
Several flying mounts, such as wyverns and griffons, are rumored to threaten and eat their owners from time to time in the imperial newspapers, but
Pegasus had a relatively gentle and polite personality.
“How did Professor Lightningwalker borrow these Pegasus?”
“Professor is one of the best explorers in the empire. He must have borrowed it through his personal connections.”
The students looked at Professor Lightning Step with eyes full of respect.
These Pegasus were expensive to call, so it was hard to find even if you had money.
But to prepare it just for the students?
“I don’t see it that way. Because I was just lucky.”
“Professor… I respect you the most…!”
“You better not say that in front of the other professors? ruler. The test you have to take is to convince this Pegasus today. Please don’t be fooled by the reference. Pegasus is nicer than Wyvern, but he’s by no means easygoing.”
Lee Han was not surprised.
Pegasus did not eat its owner directly, but it was not easy enough to let anyone ride it on its back.
The phantom beasts of the empire always sought the qualifications of their masters, and in order to be recognized, they had to pass the opponent’s test.
‘Pegasus… was sincerity and honor.’
How well did you take care of the animals during the year and how honorable did you do in general?
Pegasus could see its traces in the souls of those who deserved it.
Lee Han made eye contact with a Pegasus. Then the boy blinked his eyes very favorably and returned his gaze. It was a look that knew what Lee Han had done.
‘You know!’
As he was about to move on, thanking him for all he had done so far, Professor Lee Han was called by the lightning-walking professor.
“Wait. Wardanaz.”
“yes?”
“You can’t get close.”
“Why!?”
“Because the phone league will be jealous…?”
“……”
Lee Han lost his words at the unexpected sound.
Inside the sleeve, the basilisk groaned in agreement.
