Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 764
Episode 764
“Wowardanaz.”
“Are you thinking correctly?”
Ymirg and Raphadel hesitated and whispered from behind.
No matter how positively we tried to look at it, it was difficult to accept empty coffers as ‘financially sufficient’.
Lee Han nodded coldly.
“okay. “The black magic school has plenty of money.”
“…??”
“???”
The two wondered if Wardanaz had discovered some secret wealth or vault belonging to a school of black magic that they were unaware of.
But Lee Han also had his own thoughts.
‘If you raise the price significantly anyway, the number of buyers will decrease. They are bragging that the black magic school is poor.’
Even if we raised the price of the mushroom field, Einrogard students were more likely to steal it or try to get it from somewhere else instead of living off mustard.
Moreover, what if there are rumors that the black magic school is poor?
‘You’re going to lose money in any transaction.’
Although he was only a second year student, Lee Han was quickly becoming familiar with the ruthless world of Einrogard’s economy.
This was also a world of strength against the jungle, where anyone who showed weakness would be eaten.
“Senior Agudung. Would you please explain to them the abundance of our school of black magic?”
“Huh?”
Agdung was taken aback by the sudden call.
I didn’t know much about the economic situation of the Einrogard school of black magic.
“Please do me a favor.”
“Mmm.”
However, he did not dare to ignore the words spoken by the demon commander’s disciple.
Agdung felt his life threatened and shook his head as best as he could.
“How rich the black magic school is… Ah, I was treated to honey tea as soon as I arrived.”
“That’s amazing!”
It was definitely something great, so the other seniors were surprised.
In the case of the Buyeo magic school, they did not provide a glass of water to outsiders, whether they came or not.
‘Did the black magic school have more money than I thought?’
“That honey tea was made for Direth and other seniors to drink…”
“Yes?”
“it’s nothing. Please continue.”
Lee Han made a confused expression.
I made this for seniors who are struggling, but I never thought the professor would use his kindness towards outsiders.
But I couldn’t help it. This was also the fate he had to endure as the professor’s student.
“The new disciples are several times more numerous than our Kalaro Guards.”
“Is that so?!”
“??”
Not only the seniors, but even Lee Han was slightly surprised.
Did you?
‘If there are 0 people, it’s several times more accurate, but…’
“Also, the upper-grade students in the school are incredibly busy with requests coming in. “I can tell just by looking at the second-year student here helping me with my work.”
“Senior Agudung. “I think you can stop there.”
Lee Han quickly blocked it.
It seemed like if we went further from here, the seniors at Einroguard would notice something strange.

“Everyone. “Be careful of your breath when digging mountain hwan mushrooms.”
After the transaction was over, Agdung gave advice while picking mushrooms in the mushroom field.
As the mountain ring mushroom itself is a reagent used in a curse that disperses or reduces magical power, if the powder emitted from the mushroom is drunk incorrectly, the magician’s magical power will also be damaged.
“It is best to cover your face with a cloth. “It would be better to cast a simple windbreak spell.”
“Indeed…”
Lee Han nodded and expressed his gratitude at Agdung’s advice. Then, I picked mountain hwan mushrooms with my bare body and stuffed them into a colander.
“……”
Agdung looked at the Demon Commander’s disciple who was walking away with an expression of astonishment.
As expected, as a disciple of the Demon Commander, every single action he took was extraordinary.
‘Now that I think about it, I wonder if the friends in the same grade at the school are also different.’
Agdung suddenly had this thought and looked around at his other friends.
“Gainando. I heard that gypsum mushrooms are sensitive to temperature and will evaporate if touched incorrectly. “You gave me ice.”
“Yingying. “It’s cold.”
“Are you going to learn the cold resistance magic and then use it when eating shaved ice? Write it quickly!”
“……”
Isn’t that right?
While Agudung was slightly confused, a wave of gloomy magic power came from afar.
Agdung frowned at that wave. It was a familiar wave as a wizard of the black magic school.
‘Is it a pollutant or a corruption?’
The pollutant was a monster that was reborn as a separate mutation when the continent’s magic substance accidentally fused with magic of a different nature.
The most common contaminants causing problems were wastewater and slime that wizards roughly disposed of in their workshops.
A corrupted body was a monster that was born when a being from another dimension fell to the continent and was unable to overcome the environment of the other dimension and lost its essence.
Various runaway spirits, demons, and very rarely angel-like beings could also be seen among the fallen.
Both enemies can be quite difficult, but a seasoned wizard will have many ways to deal with them.
In addition, the black magic school was specialized in dealing with such types of polluted and corrupted beings.
“Is there a problem?”
Lee Han also seemed to sense that something was wrong and hurriedly ran to Agudung’s side.
Although it was further away, the sense of magical power was so sensitive that it caught the waves from far away.
Agdung was not surprised.
It wouldn’t be surprising if he was the Demon Commander’s disciple and caught him much earlier than he did.
“It looks like a polluted body or a corrupted body. I’m having trouble deciding whether to write < Away, Contaminated Ones! > or < Resolution to Fall > first. “What do you want to write first?”
Agdung asked, holding back from constantly popping out.
Lee Han was taken aback by that question.
“…Neither of you know?”
“?!?!”
Agdung was surprised by Lee Han’s answer.
It was so natural that a disciple of the Commander-in-Chief would naturally have learned it.
< Go away, corrupted ones! > is a 3rd circle defense magic that prevents the approach of polluted entities, and < Resolution for Corruption > is a 4th circle defensive magic that prevents the approach of corrupted entities, both of which were defensive magic suitable for extermination.
This is a magic that experienced orthodox warlocks usually learn…
“You really haven’t learned these two magics?”
“sorry.”
Usually, it was Gai Nando who apologized for not being able to learn magic, but this time, Lee Han apologized, which was rare.
‘What did I miss?’
Lee Han wondered to himself.
Obviously, I had never heard of those spells during last year’s black magic lecture.
Did I miss it because I missed it for a week?
‘shit. ‘Maybe I should have taken a black magic lecture first.’
“Oh no. There’s nothing to be sorry about! Don’t apologize! “Don’t apologize!”
Agdung shouted in disgust when the demon commander’s disciple apologized.
He then explained what the two magics were.
“…These two are magic like this.”
“…Seniors. “I’m a second year student.”
“yes? …Is that so?”
Only after receiving Lee Han’s glaring gaze was Agudung able to realize this.
The other person was still a second year student!
‘Why didn’t I notice this obvious fact??’
I obviously knew it in my head, but I couldn’t connect this fact at all.
Because I was too focused on the fact that I was the Demon Commander’s disciple…
‘… That’s right. Even if he is the Demon Commander’s disciple, he is still a second year student…’
Agdung reflected a little.
Even if the opponent is a disciple of the Demon Commander, he suggests using magic that he has not yet mastered.
“…sorry. Could you please bring your friends? “Because I’m going to install defensive magic in the field.”
“yes. “I will help too.”
“thanks.”
At Lee Han’s words, Agdung laughed, rattling his bones.
‘I guess I’ll have to take responsibility for this.’
Although they went to different schools, Agdung sensed the approaching waves of enemies with a sense of responsibility as he was in the highest grade.
Lee Han, who was waiting next to him, asked Agdung.
“Seniors. Do polluted bodies and corrupted bodies emit magical power of the same nature?”
“ah. To be exact, it’s a little different. Both of them feel like violent and twisted magical power, but while the corrupted body feels like the existing magical power has been distorted, I should say the corrupted body feels closer to a reversal…” “
Indeed. Seniors. “I think what’s coming is a contaminant.”
“!?”
When the junior answered immediately, Agudung was taken aback. It wasn’t close enough to identify the other person yet.
“Why do you think that?”
‘Is there really a distinction here?’
To be able to feel the difference from this distance was truly an unbelievable sensation.
It’s great enough for a second-year student to feel the magic wave itself…
“First of all, isn’t this area a place where senior Einroguards are constantly conducting magic and research? I think there is a much higher chance of encountering pollutants than corruptions. “In general, the probability of corruption is much lower.”
“That’s a sharp opinion.”
Agdung agreed, clenching his bone jaw.
Perhaps because he was a smart student, he took a cool-headed approach even in potentially embarrassing situations.
“I tried concentrating my senses, but I felt like my magic power had deteriorated.”
“……”
“Senior?”
“Oh, it’s nothing.”
“yes?”
“no. It’s nothing. Then, let’s get ready to strike < Go, Contaminated Ones! >!”
Agdung quickly changed the subject.
If I made a few more mistakes here, the school called Calarogad itself could be perceived as a strange place by the Demon Commander’s disciples.
Of course, it was a strange place, but originally, all the students at the Empire’s magic school, except for Baldrogard, were trying to hide the shameful aspects of their magic school.
Their magic school had always been a shameful thing, but they had to be ashamed of themselves and could not let outsiders know about it.
“Black stone, clove, sacred bone fragment, golden hair. this. “You’ve got all your golden hair.”
“Can I have that hair too?”
“oh. Good?”
Lee Han called his friends and instructed them to pull out some of Gaynando’s hair. Gainando’s screams flowed out across the field.
“Fear the wizard who wields that power, you tainted ones. Tainted ones, fear the wizard who wields that power…”
Repeat chant.
It was a technique to increase the power of magic by repeating the same spell.
In order to cast a defensive spell on a large area such as a mushroom field, the power had to be increased in this way, even if it took time.
“after. “Let’s take a break.”
Agdung paused his spell for a moment as he felt his bones throbbing.
If you change your body to undead, you are relatively free from physical problems, but that does not mean there is no pain or exhaustion.
“The bone on my arm here is a little worn. “I need to replace it before it breaks.”
“Isn’t it uncomfortable?”
In response to Gaynando’s question, Agdung laughed as if asking what he was talking about.
“It can be replaced like this, how reasonable is this? Just like this… I just… take out the bone… and put a new one in… and that’s it!”
Gainando wanted to say, ‘Even if I hurt a little, it will get better if I just wait and see’, but Agudung suffered so much that he had to replace his bones, so he couldn’t say it.
‘I think all warlocks are so strange.’
“good. Let’s start again.”
“I will help you too.”
While Agudung was doing the first task, Lee Han watched closely from the side and saw how the magic was performed, and then opened his mouth.
Since there is a senior warlock, even if you make a mistake, it is possible to correct it.
Agdung knew that too, so he readily accepted. For work that requires such physical strength, it would be nice to have a reliable assistant.
“I would appreciate it if you did. The west side is almost finished now. Could you please finish the west side a little bit? I will begin the rest of the sectors…”
“You corrupted ones, fear the wizard who wields that power.”
Once the spell was chanted, powerful magic surrounded the mushroom field.
Seeing that, Siana clenched her fists as if she was disappointed.
“I bet twice…!”
“I never thought it would happen twice…”
“……”
Agdung just watched the conversation between the second-year Einroguard students with bewildered eyes.
