Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 747
Chapter 747:
Not knowing that his senior was suffering, the heartless junior asked a question.
-By the way, senior. I have a question about magic development and 5th circle magic.
Lee Han explained what he had experienced earlier.
The crazy alter ego was swearing at me to learn the 5th circle magic, and then suddenly told me to make a telekinetic shield spell.
Of course, this telekinetic shield spell itself could have been 5-circle.
However, even the smallest details in the archmage’s choices have meaning.
Even if it was his crazy clone, he couldn’t overlook it since he was a great wizard.
Why did the crazy clone tell me to make a telekinetic shield spell instead of the many 5th circle spells?
-You cast the telekinetic shield spell with a non-recitative spear??
-senior. That’s not important now, is it? If you don’t learn it within one day, you’ll be in big trouble.
-…That’s right.
Delet was about to write, ‘If that’s not important, what’s important?’ but came to his senses when he heard his junior’s answer.
Surely that wasn’t important right now.
A second-year junior casted a telekinetic shield spell that he had not learned without chanting, but what was so great about it…
‘I’ll ask when I come back later.’
Delet couldn’t resist and took notes.
No matter how much I thought about it, it was such an amazing thing.
-I know what your crazy alter ego is thinking.
-Is that so?!
Although he asked a question, Lee Han was surprised when the senior answered immediately.
‘After all, starting in the 5th year, you become more like an archmage than a student?!’
-Generally, from the 5th circle magic, the difficulty level increases significantly. You can also enter the small world from here… Junior, do you know what a magic parrot is?
-What is that? Is this a rare animal?
-hmm. You haven’t heard yet.
The magic parrot was one of the sounds I often heard from the skeleton principal around third grade.
-Are you a magic parrot and not a wizard?! You have to think for yourself before using magic. If you can only recite the magic you learned like a parrot, you are not qualified to be a wizard!
‘It wasn’t a rare animal.’
Lee Han was a little disappointed in Direth’s explanation.
I was wondering if there was a parrot that could help with magic…
-Below 4 circles, you only need to use the magic you have learned and memorized. But starting from the 5th circle… you have to understand.
-I do not know. senior. You also need to understand magic below the 4th circle, right?
-okay. yes. But that understanding is not complete understanding. Junior. Why can’t a wizard who has learned < Flame Arrow > use < Flame Spear >? What about < Flame Shield >, < Flame Whip >, and < Flame Wall >?
Lee Han was surprised by Direth’s words.
That was definitely true.
As long as the fundamental principles were similar, the moment a wizard learned < Flame Arrow >, he had to know how to use < Flame Spear > as well.
However, Lee Han and his friends could not do that.
Why?
-In the end, even if you understand fragmentary parts, you still lack a complete understanding of the whole. The principal says that the enlightenment needed there is enlightenment… but that’s not important. In any case, if you fully understand it in this way, it is a very narrow area, but within that area, the wizard can cast magic almost as he or she wants. As I said above, even if you haven’t learned or studied < Fire Shield > or other magic, you can use it right away.
‘Small world!’
Lee Han instinctively remembered what the skeleton principal had said.
Didn’t they harass people so much to learn 5-circle magic in order to learn the small world?
After listening to Direth, I felt like I could understand why the two things were connected.
In order to learn 5-circle magic, you need a much deeper understanding than before, and that understanding becomes the foundation for the small world.
How vast an understanding would be needed to change the world to one’s will.
-So, if you want to even get into small world magic, you have to learn 5-circle magic!
-Junior. That’s true… but the small world isn’t important right now. Your life is at stake, but are you interested in other magic?
-…sorry.
Lee Han apologized to Delet’s point.
When I thought about it, the small world wasn’t that important right now.
-So junior. From your perspective, which area is easiest to understand?
-I think it might be a change in the form of the water element or lightning element. I’ve tried all kinds of different things with the water element, and the lightning element is still lacking, but it’s quite…
-Actually, I was going to say telekinesis.
Dirette became slightly embarrassed by his junior’s answer.
In fact, the judgment of Delet or his crazy alter ego was not wrong.
First of all, telekinesis went well with Lee Han, who had a lot of magical power.
Among the various elements, it was the most consuming in terms of pure magical energy consumption.
It was not for nothing that wizards implemented magic in other ways instead of casting complex magic using telekinesis.
In addition, since it had to be cast purely with the magician’s spirit rather than using the power of other elements that abound in nature, not only the magic power but also the level of difficulty was high.
However, for some people, this disadvantage of telekinesis could act as an advantage.
If you are a wizard who pours in a lot of magical power and swings it without hesitation without careful control…
If you are able to unconsciously summon a telekinetic shield, then you should be considered to have already become quite well-informed.
‘I think it’s like that because I worked so hard last year.’
Delet recalled the magic training his junior went through last year.
In particular, I was suspicious that the training of a professor who had only one student may have had an indirect effect on this practice.
-You mean telekinesis?
-You casted it right away with a chantless spear.
-ah. It was like that. In fact, maybe I had an aptitude for telekinesis rather than water or lightning?
-…Maybe so…
Telekinesis wasn’t something he had an aptitude for like elements like water or lightning, but Direth agreed to it in order to support his junior.
-Anyway, junior. I think creating such a telekinesis shield spell ultimately means having a great understanding of telekinesis.
The telekinetic magic that Lee Han often used right now was at best a level of < low level manipulation >.
But what if you study the shield magic you unconsciously used this time and fully understand, even if narrowly, the area related to that magic?
Rather than simply learning one 5-circle spell, it was like learning dozens of spells below that.
-All right. senior. So what I need to understand here is…
-First of all… No chanting. When it comes to telekinesis, you need to be able to cast it without chanting.
-No chanting…
-And compression.
-Compression?
-It does not end with simply using magic power and concentration to summon telekinesis, but it strengthens the telekinesis by combining it layer by layer. That way, the output can be increased freely.
In order to apply a certain amount of weight or impact through telekinesis, compression properties had to be understood.
It wasn’t a completely new story to hear, as I had studied rotation so persistently when learning about water properties.
– Compression… But senior. How do you know that my shield magic incorporates the principle of compression?
-Compression is necessary to block that level of attack with just telekinesis. Next, of course, is the shape change. You know this without me saying it, right?
-yes.
-Multiple controls.
-Why multi-control?
-You casted it immediately. If you have to focus on just one shield, you can’t do that. This is only possible if you can summon the shield and separate your consciousness at the same time to do other things.
-Multiple control…
Lee Han cursed at his past self while organizing.
Why did I unconsciously use such complicated magic when all it took was one hit?
‘Still, I’m glad I tried many things.’
Afterwards, Delet organized a few more parts.
-…That’s roughly it, junior.
-yes?
-no. You can do it. If you don’t know something, ask.
-thank you. We will do it.
Diret closed the artifact and immediately prepared to send the paper bird to Yukbeltire.
No matter how much I thought about it, I could never do this in one day.
* * *
Falkrius of the Kitchen Club was climbing the mountain range with his juniors.
Falkrius usually smiled a lot, but today he just frowned and glared into the distance.
“That’s not unusual.”
“Why are you doing this, sir?”
“There is magic everywhere.”
I hadn’t even gotten close yet, but I could feel a powerful magical energy coming from some of the mountain peaks.
This was not at a level that a giant or mountain range breaker could do.
It was clear that a much more powerful being had descended on Einrogard.
“…Now that I think about it, I heard this rumor.”
“What rumor?”
“The headmaster’s crazy alter ego is wandering around Einrogard.”
“Hmm!”
Falkrius was lost in thought with a cautious look on his face.
There are many false rumors in Einrogard, but sometimes some of them contain truth.
And the magic felt from those mountain peaks made the rumors I just heard seem like the truth.
“I guess not?”
“Puhuhuh. That’s not the principal’s crazy alter ego. “At most, it would be a monster from another dimension.”
“phew. “That’s it…”
The kitchen club students felt slightly relieved.
Although the monsters from another dimension were scary, they felt much better than the crazy alter ego of the Skeleton Headmaster.
‘If I want to save it, I have to do it quickly.’
Falkrius thought to himself.
If it was truly a crazy alter ego, it had to be rescued as quickly as possible.
Although the other juniors were motivated now, I wasn’t sure if they wouldn’t run away even if they saw the crazy alter ego.
…But what on earth was Wardanaz doing when he was kidnapped by the principal’s crazy alter ego?
-What are the students doing here?
“!!!”
Kitchen Club students were frightened by a voice coming from high above their heads.
There weren’t many beings who could talk like this.
“It’s a giant!”
“Ikurusha. We have no intention of stealing sheep or milk or cheese. “I came here with an offering, so please forgive me!”
Like a seasoned senior, Falkrius quickly offered the tribute he had brought and widened the distance with his juniors.
Among the giants, Ikurusha was the one with whom he could communicate well, but even so, a giant was still a giant.
If you were in a bad mood or lost your temper, you had to run away immediately.
-Tribute… Hmm… It’s okay. It’s rare for students to come up here. What’s going on?
“One of my juniors got lost and came to find him.”
-Oh my.
Ikurusha made a thunderous clicking sound.
-You’ll have a hard time. Make sure you accept the gift well.
“yes. thank you.”
“Seniors. Can’t I ask you if you’ve seen Wardanaaz?”
“no. “If you make contact for no reason, you can only incur anger.”
-Wodanaz?
“!”
Falkrius was nervous.
Ikurusha, who thought he was about to leave, stopped and showed interest.
“Is there a problem, Ikurusha?”
-I think I heard it was Wardanaz.
“I am a lost junior.”
-Is that really?!
Ikurusha was surprised.
And the kitchen club members were also surprised.
‘Why are you doing that?’
‘I don’t know…’
“Yes. “Can I just go look for you?”
-no. Please wait a moment.
“……”
Falkrius began to wonder whether he should subdue the giant in front of him.
The atmosphere around the place was unusual.
Puuuuu –
Ikurusha blew the trumpet around his neck for a long time.
Then, with the sound of the heavens and earth shaking from afar, the giants came rushing in, bringing the mountain-destroying sheep with them.
“……”
“……”
The Kitchen Club members were on the verge of collapsing from fear and tension. Falkrius was embarrassed because he did not understand the situation.
‘Are the giants planning to hold a party?’
-The human boy disappeared.
-Wodanaz! Wardanaz got lost in the mountains!!
-We need to save him quickly! You might starve to death!
-Not really… No. okay. You might starve to death, so look for it quickly.
Tears welled up in the giants’ eyes at Ikurusha’s words.
-Let’s find it quickly!
-You wizard! Help!
“yes? Yes!Yes!!”
