Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 93
Chapter 093
“You seem to be mistaken…”
“You must have used lightning magic.”
‘shit.’
There was no way Professor Voladi could not have noticed the trail.
The professor completed his assessment of the situation with the traces of the fallen monster and the faint reverberation of the lightning spirit on Lee Han’s arm.
“Interesting…”
Professor Voladi muttered with a very small nod of his head, making Lee Han more afraid than most monsters.
“Wait. Wait.”
Professor Garcia interrupted.
Lee Han’s heart was touched at the sight.
professor!
“Professor Bagreck. Why are you asking about lightning magic? What are you going to do?”
“It is necessary for teaching.”
“Teaching, what… wait. Student Lee Han… No, Professor Baegrek is taking class!?”
Professor Garcia was about to say ‘that professor’, but quickly changed his words.
However, Lee Han was able to fully understand what he was trying to say.
“Yes…”
“……”
Professor Garcia touched his forehead.
Professor Garcia was a true person who respected everyone at the magic school, but he wasn’t like that until the lecture.
Some lectures by some professors made Professor Garcia uncomfortable every time he saw them.
Professor Voladi Bagrek’s lecture was one such lecture.
From Professor Garcia’s point of view, the lecture was overly harsh and harsh!
No matter how I thought about it, it was not a lecture that freshmen could learn.
Wouldn’t it be better to teach them how to avoid fights? Teaching new students how to fight magic while maintaining composure in extreme battle situations… Fortunately, the students didn’t listen to the lecture
.
As difficult as it was, every year, when students came to listen, all of them would run away.
So, Professor Garcia was also relieved, thinking, ‘Someday Professor Bagreck will realize and change the lecture, too?’…
Surprisingly, there was a student who was listening.
Professor Voladi said as if asking why.
“I remember seeing you last time.”
“What?”
“The fight against the anti-magicians. At that time, I said I taught.”
“…!”
Professor Garcia felt a flash of lightning in his head.
The iron beads Lee Han used.
At that time, I was distracted by the imperial anti-magicists, so I didn’t think deeply about how to handle the iron ball…
…Coming to think of it, it was Professor Voladi’s method!
– He has a talent for magic combat. Professor Voladi Did you teach it? amazing
– Not very surprising.
Come to think of it, the conversation between the principal and Professor Voladi was also very meaningful.
I thought he must have been taught a few words by accident, but he was intensively receiving instruction in lectures!
“are you okay????”
“……”
Lee Han hesitated at Professor Garcia’s question.
It was ‘It’s okay’ with so many meanings.
What should I answer?
“it’s okay.”
“……”
Professor Voladi answered instead. Both Han Lee and Professor Garcia looked at Professor Boladi with absurd eyes.
“Wodhanaj has followed the teachings successfully.”
“…following you?”
Professor Garcia was stunned at first, then understood.
There were times when great talent became poison.
That was the same thing in the current situation.
Lee Han’s outstanding talent made him follow the class instead of giving up!
‘Such a tragedy…!’
Professor Boladi spoke as kindly as he could.
“I hope you now understand why I confirmed the manifestation of the lightning spell.”
“Wait a minute. I know you are following me.”
Professor Garcia made a last stand. It was true goodness.
“But just because the control of lesser telekinesis spells has improved considerably now, wouldn’t it be too hasty to jump right into elemental lightning magic? At least learn other safe elemental magic first…”
Professor Garcia paused with a terrified expression on his face.
Professor Voladi was smiling very faintly.
what???
“So I made them learn water elemental magic first.”
“…already?”
“That’s right.”
Professor Voladi’s ‘yes’ contained a very faint conviction.
Professor Garcia could feel that feeling as a fellow professor.
-Seeing that there are students following me, I didn’t teach it wrong.
It was the conviction of…
‘no!!’
Professor Garcia screamed inwardly. All in all, why!
Professor Voladi’s distorted world had to be protected from the outstanding student in front of him, even if he changed it later.
Professor Garcia said without giving up.
“In fact, don’t quite a lot of students easily even give shape to water?”
‘Was it like that?’
Lee Han, who didn’t know Professor Garcia’s inner thoughts, was surprised.
Somehow…
“It must be because of the characteristics of the element called water, right?”
“I don’t think so…”
“From that point of view, shouldn’t we become more familiar with the elements by expanding the range into other forms rather than simply going up to the next level just because we succeeded in shaping?”
Professor Voladi nodded.
“So I made myself realize the water shield magic.”
“……”
Professor Garcia looked at Lee Han with astonished eyes. Lee Han felt sorry for some reason.
If you realized it yourself, rather than just learning water shield magic, you’ve almost mastered elemental shaping.
If I realized the principle and reason by thinking about it myself, I could have made other forms as much as I wanted.
It was so important for me to realize myself.
“Ha, but… Even if you have mastered shaping, the path to elemental control is a long way off… At least you should be able to manipulate shaped water elemental magic as naturally as manipulating an iron ball…” Professor Garcia said
. My heart sank when I saw Lee Han lower his head.
no way?
“I have learned what you just said. I stopped it because I wanted to give it a rotation property.”
Professor Garcia had never in his nightmares imagined that Professor Voladi would say something like, ‘This is how I think of my students’.
It was worse than any nightmare.
And the worst thing was that there was no more way to convince Professor Garcia.
Professor Garcia said sadly in a somber voice.
“…please take good care of student Lee Han…”
“I always teach the same way. Professor Garcia.”
After the conversation between the two professors ended, Lee Han also came to his senses.
“…?!”
Is this the end?
Won’t you dry it more??
“professor…!”
“Student Lee Han. I work hard.”
Lee Han suddenly felt like a cow being led to the slaughterhouse.
I don’t know what will happen next week…
ominous!
‘…From now on, I’ll have to tell the professor to check if there are other professors around when asking for help…’ * *

Asan and his friends walked towards the black market.
“Let’s treat ourselves this weekend.”
‘Should I do that?’
Gainando wanted to complain, but had to keep his mouth shut. He had already complained once and was beaten back and forth.
The food situation of the new students at the magic school was roughly as follows.
The Tower of the Blue Dragon, where you can enjoy the most luxurious and plentiful meal thanks to Lee Han who came in after securing a large amount of supplies from outside.
The Tower of the Phoenix quietly accepts whatever meal is served in the first place without any intention of complaining.
The Tower of the White Tiger, who aggressively wields a weapon and roams the nearby forests, fields, and mountains, making the hunt more and more successful.
And the Tower of the Black Turtle supplements the lack of food through periodic gathering and occasional hunting and bartering with other students.
Among them, the Blue Dragon Tower students knew very well that they were absolutely dependent on Lee Han’s help.
Lee Han told me not to worry and took care that I could pay a penny, but I couldn’t stay still.
The Blue Dragon Tower students were also looking for food in various ways.
One of them was the black market right now.
A bartering place opened by the students of the Black Turtle Tower near the tower!
“There wasn’t much to eat the last time I went…”
“No. I also went a few days ago, but things have increased dramatically. There are quite a few things to eat.”
“I heard that you made a deal with the White Tiger Tower kids?”
At the words of his friends, Asan nodded.
“As time goes by, there is no choice but to increase the number of products in the market. I’m not just going And…”
Asan carefully took out the glass bottles from his arms.
It was the spoils obtained from attacking the dungeon called Thunderwalk Lab.
All the participating students shared potions and reagents.
“…The guys from the Black Turtle Tower know how precious this is now. It’s better to exchange the extra now before it becomes less valuable later.”
“As expected, it’s a moon card!”
The Blue Dragon Tower students smiled and headed to the black market.
The Black Turtle Tower student standing at the entrance of the black market must have recognized them, and his expression changed.
“nice to meet you. Is it okay if I come in?”
“Mi… I’m sorry.”
“??”
“There are rules. You guys can’t come in.”
Absurdity preceded Asan’s surprise.
“Are you going to exchange only between you? The market will shrink!”
“It doesn’t matter.”
With a deep, deep voice, someone appeared from behind the students of the Black Turtle Tower.
He was short like a dwarf and had a more muscular body than the White Tiger Tower students.
It was to the extent that even a baggy coat could not hide it.
‘Isn’t that a dwarf…?’
Asan was taken aback. I thought it was a dwarf, but when I looked closely, it was an elf.
A short, very muscular elf!
“I am Salko of the Tutanta family.”
The Tutanta Family.
It was a fairly famous stonemason guild family in the empire.
I knew it as a family of outstanding Dwarven artisans…?
“Tutanta. Why are you blocking entry? Because we are the tower of the blue dragon?”
“no. Of course, it’s true that I don’t like you blue dragon tower students…”
“……”
“……”
“…I don’t put my feelings into these rules. The reason you guys can’t come in is because of the rules.”
“What are the rules?”
“I can’t bring in things that aren’t obtained through my own work!”
The Black Turtle Tower students gathered behind Salko.
They were all different, from the rugged ones to the well-bred ones, but we could tell that Salco had leadership.
Asan took out the reagents he had brought with him.
“What we brought now was brought from work!”
“okay? Where did you get it from?”
“……”
Asan ate honey and became mute. It could not be called Professor Wooregeum’s laboratory.
Kainando made an excuse instead.
“I got it outside!”
“It was harvested in the fields, but you were able to gather that amount now? must have stolen If you can’t give a source, I’ll judge it as stolen. And as long as I’m at Black Turtle’s Tower, I’ll make sure the market doesn’t handle stolen goods. It not only taints people’s sweat and effort, but also disrupts the market.”
The words were so right that the students of the Blue Dragon Tower were at a loss for words.
Gainando exclaimed as if it was unfair.
“But then where to trade stolen goods! What do thieves want to eat!”
“Hey… Gainan too… lower your voice because you’re embarrassed…!”
The students of the Blue Dragon Tower realized their shame and shut Kainando’s mouth.
At that time, Lee Han appeared with a basket.
Lee Han was puzzled when he saw his friends gathered at the entrance.
“What are you doing? Aren’t you going in?”
“Lee Han!”
Asan confided in all the things that had happened.
Lee Han listened and asked Salco.
“I grew this myself in my garden, so can I go in?”
“…!”
Salco looked at Lee Han with surprised eyes. Then he nodded.
“Then see you later.”
Seeing Lee Han enter, the friends of the Blue Dragon Tower came to their senses belatedly.
“?!?”
