To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 103
Episode 103 Special Lecture (1)
There were countless students gathered in the lecture room.
Even though it is a fairly large place, there is no gap to pass through.
“We are still in the 1st circle, can we take a special lecture?”
“It was a special lecture that the academy publicized extensively. I think it would be better to listen regardless of the circle.”
“Well… Seeing that the professors were also present.”
The chatter and chatter did not stop.
That would also be the lecture of a mage who is suspected (?) of being Lord.
There was no way the Magic Academy would have let such a person’s lectures rot.
Due to continuous publicity and instructions from professors from a week ago, students eventually showed interest in the special lecture.
Unlike those people, Ray was quite nervous.
Ray, who proceeded with the first lecture with a trembling heart, was reviewing the contents of the lecture again.
What to say and how to explain it.
“Should I roughly say what I felt…”
Ray did not systematically learn magic.
I just tried to apply what I learned and understand other magic accordingly.
So, I didn’t know much about the theory of magic.
Thirty minutes before the lecture, students gathered in the classroom.
Even professors attended lectures.
It was probably because he was curious about the lecture of someone who was a saint but might have reached the Lord.
When Ray first came to the academy, he wondered why they didn’t bow their heads and bow.
Students may not know it, but it is clear that the board of directors and professors must know that he is a saint.
Even so, it was surely strange that he did not take an example.
Ray soon found out why.
First of all, the academy is an exceptionally isolated area within the Holy Land.
In this place, no status is recognized until you graduate from a royal family, aristocrat, or commoner high school.
If a professor, if a professor, if a student, then a student.
Even if it were divided separately, it would be only this much.
So don’t set an example.
In fact, among the students, the self-restraint of the nobility is considerable.
In the academy where the boundaries between commoners and nobles have disappeared, they are recognized as equal individuals with the status of students.
Of course, nobles and commoners would not accept each other without hesitation.
However, even in the midst of this, there were commoners who tried to be good to the nobles.
On the surface, any position or status was not recognized, but there were many students who did not think so.
Ray was able to understand the academy’s structure faster than others.
It is because we have lived in a modern age where there is no class system in the first place.
Ray sighed in the classroom.
“By the way, I never thought we’d start with a lecture on magic.”
I haven’t even thought about the lecture on medicine yet.
As Ray thought so, the bell outside began to ring loudly.
Thuong-Thuong-
This is probably how it informs the start time of the lecture.
There are students and professors who have already filled their seats, and there are even students who stand up to listen to the lecture because there are no seats.
After roughly organizing her thoughts, Ray stepped onto the podium as soon as the bell rang.
Then, a side of him that hadn’t been seen before was revealed to everyone.
Noble-looking skin with noble white hair.
At first glance, the cold-looking eyes and plain but eye-catching ink-colored earrings caught everyone’s attention.
The classroom, which had been quite noisy, became quiet in an instant.
“Wow…”
“Oh my God…”
Several exclamations came out, and the pupils of the female students became hazy.
Ray opened his mouth slowly.
“This is the newly appointed Professor Ray. I’m going to start teaching magic from now on.”
Then he started writing something down on the blackboard.
Those who were distracted by his appearance soon came to their senses and looked at the writing on the blackboard.
“A manifestation of magic…?”
Ray nodded at someone’s muttering.
“My first lecture is this.”
Then, raise your hand and point to the writing on the board.
“The manifestation of magic is, in a way, an essential element and ultimate goal of all wizards.”
Ray looked around and said.
“What are the rules for the magic to manifest?”
A fair-haired young man answered his question.
“This is an action that will induce the conversion of mana and the expression of the correct starter word.”
“that’s right. Those three are the representative rules.”
“…by the representative rule, do you mean that there are other ways?”
At the young man’s question, Ray smiled meaningfully.
“If you take Fire magic as an example, the mana conversion formula heats up mana, draws in mana to burn, and applies friction. You have to go through three conversions like this. So what if we reduced the three conversions required to manifest this magic to one?”
The young man shook his head as if he didn’t have to think.
“Mana disintegrates and dissipates. Of course, magic won’t be manifested, and only mana will be wasted.”
“Wrong. Magic manifests faster and consumes less mana. Besides, until right before it manifests, the opposing mage will not be able to notice the existence of the manifested magic.”
“…”
The young man furrowed his eyebrows slightly.
What the professor in front of me was talking about was an ideal theory.
Reduce three expression rules to one? What nonsense!
Seeing that expression on his face, Ray said with a smile.
“You look like you don’t understand.”
“Of course. I’m sorry, but what you’re talking about is nothing more than a mere ideal.”
The reaction of the people around him was similar to that of the young man.
The professors who were watching also hardened their expressions, and the students abandoned the idea of taking notes.
Ray nodded as if he had expected it. He said raising his right hand.
“Then let me demonstrate. From now on, I will activate magic on my right hand, so everyone keep an eye on it.”
At his words, those who listened to the lecture looked at Ray’s hands.
First of all, it is a special lecture, so I have to follow it, but what is the meaning of this lecture?
Ray waited a moment for them to focus on his right hand.
‘Well, this should be enough.’
If you get this much attention from a place this close, they will know no matter what you do.
Ray instantly converted the atmospheric mana.
Flames
gushed from Ray’s outstretched right hand.
Those who saw it were shocked.
“Magic without even starting…!”
“I definitely didn’t feel the mana moving!”
“I can’t believe that magic can be manifested with just one conversion…”
After that, their concentration changed noticeably.
Once I showed a demonstration, I became interested.
Ray looked at them and said.
“As you can see, one conversion is enough to activate the magic.”
Then draw something on the blackboard.
It was an atom.
“If this is mana before magic is manifested…”
Then he starts drawing again.
One more small circle is attached to each side of the atom. And they were a picture bound together by lines.
The finished picture was water particles.
Ray tapped the blackboard with his hand.
“It changes the mana when it manifests like this. I think there are some people who feel itchy, but you can try it now.”
At his words, the professors cleared their throats as if trying to keep their bodies together, but each student started to try it while looking at the picture on the blackboard.
Hwaaak- Hwaaak-
Mana was scattered and the sound of failure continued to be heard, and the lecture room turned into a practice room before I knew it.
In the meantime, it wasn’t long before successful people began to emerge. The first one to succeed was a blond young man who told Ray that he was an idealist.
“All right!”
“Me too!”
Water poured from their hands.
Ray looked at them and smiled.
“It worked.”
Still looking down at their hands in disbelief, they looked back at Ray.
How do you know this knowledge that is not known anywhere? In addition, with this level of knowledge, it was not enough to call it the secret of a family.
Can I just solve it on myself in a lecture like this?
Even the professors showed admiration on their faces.
That’s because he didn’t know how to solve and interpret a technology that would be nothing more than an ideal theory.
However, that was an idea that the professors were not familiar with.
They solved it and interpreted it easily, but all they can use is the 1-circle water magic that Ray taught them.
They wouldn’t be able to use it freely unless they understood all of atomic theory and what particles looked like.
As many students admired their success, even the professors, who had been silently maintaining their form, constantly asked questions.
“If you make mana in that form, it will only be strong when united, but wouldn’t the power of each individual be less?”
“In the first place, magic is made by combining mana. If you look at only one object of mana, it can never be magic. In other words, it is the cornerstone to achieve one thing called ‘magic’. All for one, one for all.”
“…all for one… one for all…”
Some of the professors paused in thought at Ray’s words.
The rest of the professors were still talking to Ray.
“What is the name of this theory? You have to submit it to the conference right away!”
“The name… um… atomism.”
“Atomicism… that’s a good name!”
“It was better than any lecture I’ve ever seen. As a wizard, I thank you.”
“thank you.”
The professors who debated with each other and gave passionate speeches were literally a tribe of wizards.
Those who do not have the desire to raise their level will never become high-ranking mages.
If you look at it that way, their behavior doesn’t seem too bad.
Ray answered each and every question pouring in.
Then the lecture time passed in an instant.
There are still some words that I haven’t been able to say during the lecture.
Ray’s lecture was a success, and his name quickly spread throughout the Magic Academy.
The day after coming to the academy. Ray had become a celebrity.
* * *
The evening after his special lecture.
There was a great uproar at the Magic Academy.
“Everyone back away!”
The enlightenment of a professor who had risen to the 4th circle a long time ago began.
After the 4th circle, only the wall area. In order to raise the circle, you had to gain a corresponding realization.
The professor was the professor who had listened to Ray’s lecture today. He was able to catch the tail of the 5th circle at what Ray said.
But that wasn’t the only thing that crossed the wall.
The same commotion broke out in the professor’s office, where he was on duty.
“Professor Clarice! This… It’s a circle up!”
A student who spotted the professor quickly ran to inform the others.
Students and professors surrounded the two professors who were circled up and began to escort them.
However, the professors could not concentrate on the escort.
what the hell is going on
Two 4th Circle Masters attaining enlightenment in just one lecture?
What on earth was in that lecture?
That’s how Ray’s special lecture became an indispensable existence for the magic academy just once.
