Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 650
Episode 650
“Is that so? Everyone has an unexpected side, right?”
Han Lee was confident that he would not be surprised if Professor Voladi made this.
Couldn’t Professor Boladi have gone through a period of stormy rage in his youth?
“No matter how surprising it is, there is a limit.”
“The headmaster was also handsome when he was alive.”
Knowing this fact, Han Lee has a more flexible perspective.
The world had no limits and magic was an infinite law.
“…that was so… so long ago. Bagreg’s youth is not that ancient!”
Alcicle had to fight for the honor of Voladi, whom he did not even consider close.
After repeated persuasion, Lee Han accepted the persuasion that it might not be Professor Boladi’s fault.
“Perhaps not… Well, it might have been made by a magical criminal hiding in the school.”
“hey. You don’t have to force a ridiculous hypothesis just because you said Bagreg didn’t do it.”
Alcicle was moved to tears by seeing Lee Han, who, to anyone’s eyes, singled out Professor Voladi as the culprit and spit it out roughly.
“And what takes precedence over who the owner is is the magic that resides here.”
“I agree.”
Lee Han nodded.
It didn’t really matter who the owner was.
It was important that we got these artifacts.
When Lee Han agreed, Alcicle also looked at his junior with a pleased look. At this time, as the same mage, the opinion was the same.
The two were talking to each other at the same time.
“First, learn the magic that dwells in it. Then maybe we can meet the owner.”
“It’s a fairly useful artifact, so if you carry it with you, use it in case of danger, and sell it in case of emergency… Yes?”
“?”
“??”
Alcicle and Lee Han looked at each other. Alcicle flapped his wings to settle the conversation.
“for a moment. My opinion was to learn the magic that resides here. If I ever get a chance to meet the owner, I might be able to learn some new arcane magic.”
“yes.”
“Your opinion… I don’t know what nonsense you are.”
‘No, that’s too much.’
Lee Han protested at the senior wizard’s ice-cold reply.
“It’s hard to find the owner, but what kind of opportunity do you have to meet the owner? It’s common to just use it as an artifact.”
“Don’t you know that magic calls for magic? know when and how to meet What a pity it would be if I met the owner and couldn’t learn magic. I’m not wasting my chance to learn magic!”
Like a born wizard, Alcicle didn’t want to waste the opportunity to learn any kind of magic.
Moreover, it was not another magic, but a skilled person who imprinted time magic on this pocket watch.
A skilled person like that would have created some unique and extraordinary magic of his own.
I had to be prepared for that one day.
And isn’t there an old saying that magic calls for magic?
It was something fate might lead to the owner if he learned it.
“Magic summons magic, I think, is a story about revenge. If the White Tiger Tower students hit the Black Turtle Tower with magic, the Black Turtle Tower students hit the White Tiger Tower with magic.”
“……”
Arsicle snapped his beaks in displeasure at the snobbish interpretation of a proverb symbolizing romantic destiny.
“And Pengerin. Pengerin’s plan has the biggest problem.”
“What?”
“It means that I may not be able to learn the magic imprinted here.”
Lee Han said seriously.
Initially, this was the biggest problem.
Time magic was a very difficult magic.
It was clear that it would take an enormous amount of time to master even a spell like < Limited Time Acceleration > engraved on this pocket watch.
Isn’t Lee Han even in a situation where he has to study other magic as well?
Rather than playing around with an artifact that some lunatic might have created, it might have been a wiser choice to just use it as an artifact itself.
“Wardanaz.”
Alcicle sighed deeply.
“yes?”
“You can learn.”
“How does Pengerin know that?”
“You can learn it, son of a bitch. okay? that you can learn Don’t talk nonsense, just get used to it. Learn within today.”
‘You’re really violent today.’
Lee Han grumbled inwardly at the sight of Alcicle acting out of nonsense.

Durgyu rode slowly.
They didn’t ride luxurious wagons, nor did they ride horses that were too skinny and old.
It was a knight’s journey to move proudly on a well-built warhorse with the family pattern engraved on the chest.
‘no?’
A group of mercenaries were seen chattering around the traveler on a hill far above.
Durgyu, who was passing on the Imperial Road, grabbed the sword right away.
He could have just passed by, but Durgyu had no intention of doing that.
Because it was a knight’s duty to protect travelers who walked on the road of the empire.
Even if it wasn’t his family’s land, it was the same. Durgyu immediately spurred on his horse.
“Oh, my sin is too deep. can i turn it around? Can I atone now?”
nod
“Really? You mean this blood-soaked hand?”
nod
“Oh… oh!”
“Atonement… I will atone!”
“I’ll put down my sword and return to my hometown…!”
“????”
Durgyu wondered if some demon worshipers were there.
The rough and ferocious mercenaries were shedding tears and repenting like gentle sheep.
What kind of nonsense is this?
‘Is it mind magic?!’
Standing among the mercenaries, Arsil gave a warm hug as if understanding.
Then he motioned for me to follow him. The mercenaries cried and chased after Arsil.
“…What did I see?”
Durgyu came to his senses and tried to chase after him, but to his surprise, the mercenaries had disappeared.
It was like being possessed by a ghost.
“Aren’t you Durgyu from the Choi family?”
“Oh. Priest Siana.”
Durgyu turned his head to the familiar voice coming from a carriage rolling in the distance.
The flag of the Flement Church and the wagon priests were visible.
Indeed, befitting the largest religious order in the empire, the wagon was large and strong, although not flashy.
“You look like the headmaster saw you in broad daylight.”
“What a terrible joke… that’s nothing.”
Durgyu rode his horse down the hill.
No one would believe me if I told them what I had just seen.
Even the person himself was unsure as if he had a dream…
“I hope that Flement’s wisdom will lead you to perfection.”
“ah. With that perfection, I will show even more extraordinary wisdom.”
Durgyu eagerly recalled and responded to the greetings of the priests.
The Priests of the Flemain Church made a happy expression at the appropriate answer.
Among the knights, there were not many people who could give a polite greeting befitting the church. Even more so if it was a young knight.
“The Choi family knight is truly dignified.”
‘I learned by following Lee Han.’
Durgyu asked Priest Siana.
“Are you going to the Wardanaz family manor?”
“yes yes. There is a village in front of me, so I plan to stop by.”
“Everyone in the church…?”
“It’s not like that. The other priests came because of the village.”
Priests of the Flement Church often toured the empire and made potions.
Outstanding alchemists are rare in remote places.
The quality potions made by the priests of the Flement Church were very useful to these people.
Udamhwa Village was not a place where there was a temple of the Fleming Church in a remote place, but the priests and priests who would accompany the young priest Siana chose the village as their destination.
“People like it when I go to town and distribute potions.”
“hmm. That’s great.”
Durgyu shook his head up and down.
I had seen these good deeds done by the priests of the Flemain Church even in the North. In the cold and harsh northern regions, good deeds were far more important than in other regions.
“The villagers will be impressed too.”
“Is that so? Shall I build a temple for you?”
“That’s fine…”
Durgyu expressed disapproval.
Unlike Lee Han, Durgyu felt awkward when hanging out with other top students.
How could Durgyu know what the priests like?
You can’t talk about hunting or northern monsters…
“…Ah. that’s right. Did you know that Lee Han visited the North this time?”
“!”
Priestess Cyana looked at her with interest.
After finding a good topic, Durgyu felt relieved.
“I visited the Moradi family. I also heard about it through letters from other friends.”
“and. Are you in the Moradi family?! Wasn’t the relationship between the two of you as bad as a dog?”
“Priestess Cyana.”
One of the senior priests of the Flemain Church waved a finger in warning.
Although his skills improved greatly after entering Ein Rogueard, there were times when he was worried that his personality had become too impatient.
There must have been other priests in Einrogard, but I couldn’t understand why it was like that.
“sorry. Wasn’t it as bad as a dog?”
‘I don’t think it’s a matter of making it smaller.’
Durgyu wondered if it was okay to be a priest, but he decided not to get involved in the affairs of a church other than his family.
“In fact, even though they seem to be fighting, they are quite close.”
“oh. Really?”
“yes. After attending swordsmanship classes together for a year and joining forces, there’s no way we can’t be close. You can just think of them as friends who seem to have a bad relationship on the outside.”
Durgyu defended them diligently.
It was always a pity to see the two of them fight shoulder to shoulder.
There must be an invisible but accumulated comradeship between the two!
Of course, it was an undemanded defense that neither of them wanted.
“Oh…”
Priestess Cyana excitedly scribbled her quill.
I had a story to write when sending letters to student priests of other denominations.
“Then why did you visit this time?”
“Yes. It is a token of friendship.”
“By the way, you didn’t visit Durgyu’s mansion of the Choi family, did you?”
“……”
Durgyu, caught off guard, was taken aback.
“You don’t have to visit to be close…”
“But just looking at this, doesn’t Giselle from the Moradi family become closer than Durgyu from the Choi family?”
“…Actually, Moradi doesn’t get along very well with Lee Han.”
“?!”
Driven into a corner, Durgyu threw the knight’s honor to the side of the road and started slandering Moradi.
“No, you just said you were close, didn’t you?”
“It was kind of friendly. We fight often. I am more friendly.”
‘Can I trust this person?’
Priest Shiana looked at Durgyu with her eyes narrow, typical of snake beasts.
There was a strong smell of bravado in what he had just said.
Just like the words of the blue dragon tower prince…
“I think Lee Han’s visit this time is probably a consideration to mend the deteriorated friendship with Moradi. Moradi isn’t a bad friend, but isn’t he self-righteous and sharp-tempered? So, the reason Moradi is closer…”
“I understand.”
Priest Siana stopped Durgyu because she couldn’t stand it any longer.
“And I personally visit Lee Han’s estate, right? I am more friendly.”
“Yes…”
The village was visible in the distance.
But something was strange. People were out on the road in front of the village.
“Are you priests of the Flemain Church?”
“you’re right. Do you need help?”
“Oh no! That… could you wait a moment?”
“yes?”
“In Ma Village, someone… knocked over a haystack and the square was completely messed up. I have to clean it up!”
“We are here to help.”
“No no no!! We can’t ask travelers for that! Just wait a little longer!”
