Episode 426
Professor Verdus, who had been called in, looked blankly at the skeleton principal.
The skeleton principal sighed as he had no idea what he had done wrong.
Bible, Bible… How many times have I said this?
“what?”
Just do the bare minimum of preparation. I’m not trying to interfere with your research. Just do the basics. huh?
“You worked hard to prepare?!”
Professor Verdus asked back as if it were unfair.
The skeleton principal held back and spoke once more.
Usually when I tell you to do the bare minimum preparation… I’m not asking you to exploit a first-year student.
“But the other guys are idiots?”
The ‘other guys’ that Professor Verdus was talking about were the so-called disciples of Professor Verdus.
Lee Han’s seniors learning bestowing magic!
Originally, these seniors would have helped Professor Verdus with his work, preparing lectures and teaching juniors, but…
As you know, in the imperial magic world, students usually resemble their teachers.
Of course, the remaining students who decided to continue practicing enchantment under a teacher like Professor Verdus had no choice but to be students similar to Professor Verdus.
-I don’t know what the professor is doing, but I will make my own artifact.
-The professor went to the punishment room? Somehow there was a chair left. Then I guess I’ll have to use this chair.
Since Professor Verdus did not particularly expect any affectionate respect from his students, their relationship should be seen as being at the level of magicians working in the same workshop rather than the traditional relationship of a priest.
In fact, it was worse than that. The same workshop magicians would at least pay attention if someone disappeared.
There was no way those seniors could help me with my work. If Professor Verdus called, it was very likely that he would just ignore him without answering.
It’s not that I’m an idiot, it’s because you taught me that.
“No matter how I taught you, if you weren’t an idiot, you would have figured it out. Look at Wardanaaz.”
… …
The skeleton principal felt a headache coming on for the first time in a long time.
Professor Boladi, who is convinced by Lee Han, ‘As expected, my teachings are not wrong,’ and Professor Verdus, who is convinced by Lee Han, ‘I see that they are doing well on their own, so it’s the other idiots’ fault,’ really…
People like this should be left alone and let them taste the bitter taste, but it was very disgusting to see them elated when they were lucky enough to meet a crazy student.
Shut up and prepare for 2nd year or higher on your own.
“I have the ability to do Wardanaz too… ”
I know too. Because I can see it.
“But why?”
I can’t bear to see you getting comfortable leaving it to your student.
The skeleton principal spoke honestly.
Professor Verdus looked at the skeleton headmaster, wondering how he could think such a bad idea.
“professor. Don’t keep going somewhere else. Do you think I would prepare it alone if I did that? Reagent quickly… uh. principal. “What are you doing?”
I am telling you not to do anything that prepares you for senior lectures.
“haha. “Don’t joke.”
Lee Han snorted as if it made no sense.
At that attitude, the skeleton principal reflected very slightly on his actions.
* * *
“uh?”
“weird?”
Students listening to Grant Magic were surprised to see the classroom being different from usual.
Books were prepared in advance at each seat, a magic circle was prepared so that one could experience magic indirectly, and reagents and metals that were good for testing magic were neatly arranged.
The students who saw this came to a logical conclusion.
“Did you come into another classroom?”
“Professor, are you over there?”
The beaver beast people were not a common beast people. The students were confused and looked around.
“Wardanaz. “Do you know what the situation is?”
Wardanaz was always quick with news in situations like this. My friends asked questions in hopes of finding out something.
Lee Han nodded and answered.
“Today’s lecture on granting magic is not about engraving it with a magic circle, but about giving it directly through a spell. As the level of difficulty increases, auxiliary magic circles, reference books, and practice materials are prepared.”
The method of engraving an engraving directly on an object with a magic circle was a kind friend that alleviated the trouble of wizards preparing complex magic.
Naturally, the difficulty of magic given by memorizing spells has increased significantly.
This is especially true as the magician must personally create the magical power structure that is engraved one by one into the magic circle along with the spell.
“Right… for a moment. Wardanaz. “How do you know this?”
“It’s Wardanaz. “You’ll know when you see it.”
“I prepared it.”
“… … ”
“… … ”
“I prepared it.”
“Uh, huh.”
The friends suddenly became solemn at Lee Han’s words.
For some reason, I thought I couldn’t see it…
‘Is it normal for first-year students to prepare like this?’
‘Could it be normal? Even though I come from a family of knights, I know that this is not normal.’
‘But honestly, aren’t you better prepared than Professor Verdus?’
The White Tiger Tower students who were whispering certainly thought so.
Professor Verdus’ style was, at worst, irresponsible, and at best… No, he couldn’t say anything nice.
If Professor Verdus had prepared today’s lecture, the students would start from the beginning looking for the books they need among the books on the shelves, search through the wooden chests in the material warehouse, take out useful magic circles, and then take them out by mistake, burn some clothes, and get scolded by Professor Verdus. …
“Wardanaz. Are you preparing for the future?”
“… “What did you mean just now?”
The White Tiger Tower student, who spoke with eyes filled with anticipation, flinched at the bloody voice.
“Oh, no. just… curious.”
* * *
Always start with the elements.
When teaching the basics of any school of magic, it was often taught in conjunction with elements.
That’s because the elemental properties were familiar and familiar to wizards.
What wizard is not familiar with fire, water, wind, and earth?
Of course, sometimes there were wizards who used more lightning and darkness, but those were truly exceptional cases…
“Look Carefully. like this.”
Professor Verdus waved his cane. Then the patternless wooden board became hot. When water was sprinkled on it, a crackling sound was heard.
Lee Han asked.
“professor. “You didn’t memorize the spell.”
“uh? “I don’t have to memorize it.”
“… Wouldn’t it be better to let students listen?”
Professor Verdus made the students angry in a different way than when he carved the magic circle.
The professor recited the spell again, blaming the students’ inability to chant silently.
“Fever, hide your form and dwell in it.”
Despite its simple appearance, this >latent heat grant> magic was quite difficult.
Rather than simply giving it fire, we need to remove some of the characteristics of the fire element and leave only pure heat.
Of course, the heat had to be absorbed into the object.
Since all of this had to be done with spells and without a magic circle, the students’ facial expressions could not help but be frowned upon.
“And when you’re done with this, this is what comes next.”
Professor Verdus additionally explained enchantments that can be cast immediately without a magic circle.
The same was true for the >Latent Heat Enchantment> that was just shown, but Professor Verdus preferred to take it a step further, rather than using a simple element-based enchantment.
It wasn’t a consideration to improve the students’ skills, it was just that I disliked boring magic due to my personality.
>Latent Heat Grant> Next was >True Light Grant>.
This magic, usually cast on a staff, was an enchantment that amplified search, one of the attributes of the light element.
In other words, it is a magic that continuously emits useful light when detecting hidden passages or illusion magic.
“!”
“!!!”
Snipsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssally-
The students’ eyes widened and the speed of their writing quills increased.
I immediately realized how useful that magic was for students who wanted to go out after dinner.
Einro Guard had so many secret passages and traps that it could be renamed Einro Dungeon.
What’s worse, if the classroom is on the second floor or higher, wouldn’t students go in groups rather than alone?
As such, students had no choice but to covet such magic.
‘Preparing the latent heat granting magic was much more troublesome. ‘Awful bastards.’
Lee Han also understood what he was feeling, but was a little disappointed.
The latent heat granting magic probably required more preparations.
Afterwards, Professor Verdus >Gives Windproof> (It was a defensive magic that created a wind barrier around the equipment, deflecting weak projectiles and changing the trajectory of strong projectiles), >Granted Essence> (Removes the toxicity contained in the liquid. It was a magic that gave the magic to cloth), etc.
“Wardanaz. I have a question about this >Give Light of Truth> cast. Should I convert the element first and then enchant it, or… ”
“… Uh, there’s a professor over there.”
“ah. “Have you not learned it yet?”
Rowena looked surprised, as if she had never even thought about it.
He looked like he didn’t even think that Lee Han hadn’t mastered it yet.
“I learned it, but there’s a professor over there.”
‘I got the hang of it.’
‘Did you learn it?’
The White Tiger Tower students practicing next to them thought to themselves.
Well, since we prepared together with the help of the professor, it would have been even more strange that he couldn’t learn it if he was as skilled as Wardanaz.
“But not the professor.”
Rowena was quite honorable among the White Tiger Tower (self-proclaimed) knights.
So I didn’t say anything more, but everyone present could tell.
“hmm. “It’s a bit like that.”
Lee Han gave up and decided to just explain.
In fact, it was true that I was able to write it to some extent thanks to the preparation and practice I had with Professor Verdus.
“My method is not necessarily the right answer, so just keep that in mind. First the light element, then elemental attribute transformation, then enchantment. This order is best. “What you need to be careful about when giving it is that since you are not borrowing the power of a magic circle, it may consume a lot of magical power.”
“How severe is the magical power consumption?”
“I do not know. Because I don’t feel it. “It says so in the book.”
“… … ”
“… … ”
The White Tiger Tower students stared at Lee Han, but Lee Han ignored them.
“So, you shouldn’t invest too much magical power in light element or property conversion. In the first place, the magic cast with this type of spell is bound to be weak in effect. Instead of reducing the effect, I thought I would increase the speed and casting time… ”
“thank you.”
Rowena bowed her head.
Clearly, Lee Han’s teachings were effective and progress was visible. Then another White Tiger Tower student asked.
“Wardanaz. “Can I ask too?”
“Oh. Then me too.”
“… “It’s all good, but let’s practice too.”
“?!”
“?!?”
The White Tiger Tower students were surprised.
Even Professor Verdus was surprised.
“what?! “You haven’t learned everything yet!?”
“… You may not be able to learn it… ”
Lee Han refrained from saying ‘You bastard’.
If it were only White Tiger Tower students, it would have flowed out.
“Why didn’t you learn it?!”
“Ignore what the professor says.”
“You hold back. Wardanaaz.”
The White Tiger Tower students desperately tried to comfort Lee Han.
If Lee Han got angry, they were the only ones to lose.
If you ask Professor Verdus, he will teach you like a dog…
“But what did you really not learn? Windproof magic?”
“I haven’t seen Wardanaz use the wind element.”
“Is it the earth element? Wardanaz. “If you have any questions, ask.”
Salko, another top student, also looked at me curiously.
“>Grant latent heat>.”
“?”
“??”
The friends tilted their heads.
Professor Verdus also tilted his head.
“It’s the easiest, but you’re screwing your head…” ”
“No, maybe you can’t!”
The White Tiger Tower students desperately tried to redirect the conversation.
“It’s surprisingly difficult! I also don’t sleep well! It’s quite difficult to make something that doesn’t belong in the first place… ”
“It’s there, though.”
“uh?”
My friends were puzzled.
If you can grant heat with >Latent Heat Grant>, there’s nothing particularly difficult, right?
“Then where did you get stuck? say it. Wardanaz. Can I help you… ”
Lee Han waved his cane.
Then the staff began to burn from within.
It wasn’t that the flame was started directly, but it caught fire inside because it couldn’t withstand the heat.
“… “I don’t think so.”
“Cheer up, cheer up!”
