Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Chapter 246

…You learn quickly, yes. They said that if I was a genius, I should have arrogance, but I didn’t expect to learn so quickly.

“What are you talking about?”

It is nothing.

Headmaster Skeleton looked at the shield floating behind Lee Han and asked.

is it a task?

“yes.”

What made you so crude and ignorant… Wait. No duration boost?

Headmaster Skeleton was surprised to see the magic circle engraved on the shield.

It was not surprising that the magic circle was engraved on the shield itself.

It would have been without conscience to ask a first-year student to complete a floating shield without such aids.

In fact, even if there was an auxiliary device, asking them to complete a floating shield was an act without conscience, but…

that is also the path that a wizard must go through in order to grow.

Being given an impossible challenge wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

Even if you fail a hundred difficult challenges, wouldn’t that experience make you a wizard?

If you succeed in any of these, even better!

‘It’s good to be successful, but why is there no duration amplification…?’

Have you ever seen such an ignorant guy? Did you just increase the time with horsepower?

“yes. But…”

Lee Han tried to explain.

It wasn’t because Lee Han was ignorant, but because the task itself was absurdly difficult, and I combined the magic circle to complete it somehow, so it was at the level of rags

. If you have a lot of mana, why bother? I will cancel the word ignorant. That’s a clever way.

“I didn’t do this on purpose…”

Stop being humble. well done anyway Professors will love it.

“…Don’t you think that Professor Verdus’s assignments are a bit excessive?”

yes. But did you do it?

“……”

While Lee Han was trembling with anger and remorse for himself, the skeleton principal tapped his shield.

One or two more days will go. Oh… Professor Verdus would be coveted.

“Why does the professor covet this?”

If you compare the magic skills of Lee Han and Professor Verdus, there is a difference between firefly and full moon.

If you look at this shield made by patching up magic circles with Professor Verdus’ personality, you’ll get the same reaction that the skeleton headmaster showed you earlier, ‘Why did you make it so crude and ignorant?’

The magic circle is very crude, but being able to infuse magic like this is something even Professor Verdus can’t do.

Regardless of skill, there were skills that only certain wizards could do.

Such an increase in duration, which was only possible with Lee Han’s enormous amount of magical power, was something that Professor Verdus could not do even if he was an excellent enchantment mage.

“It’s not that you can’t, it’s more like you can’t. Isn’t it actually expedient?”

Lee Han replied calmly.

no. In the case of complex artifacts, it is not possible to engrave a continuous increasing magic circle on all parts.

If it was a simple artifact, it was relatively good, but as the structure of the artifact became more complex, the wizard’s calculations became difficult enough that his head exploded.

In particular, in the case of a multi-complex artifact with multiple enchantments, it was not possible to engrave a continuous increasing magic circle on all parts due to its complex structure.

Inevitably, you have to use all kinds of methods to fill up the lack of mana…

There are times when it’s easier to infuse a lot of mana at once than to squeeze out a lot of mana in a complicated way. Words are semi-permanent, and in fact, once a hundred years have passed, a wizard has little to do with responsibility.

There were few customers who came to the wizard because the artifact that was over a hundred years old was broken.

‘I guess so. Does this expedient mean anything?’

Lee Han, who nodded, hesitated.

“…for a moment. So, are you saying that Professor Verdus calls me whenever he needs something like this?”

Will it be like that?

Lee Han’s face turned pale.

* * *

Ogonin was startled when he saw Lee Han on the other side of the mirror.

“No, what did you do to make the student’s face look like that?!”

Didn’t do anything!

Headmaster Skeleton was furious.

The principal suspects that a student is depressed.

So, if the cat of the Ogonin Tower gets grumpy, is it because of Ogonin?

“it’s nothing.”

Lee Han said with a bitter smile.

“It’s all my fault.”

“no…!”

Ogonin, aware of Einrogard’s harsh educational environment, stared at Headmaster Skeleton.

Headmaster Skeleton was in a frenzy.

Thinking of the future of my orthodox fantasy magic, I gave the festival interrupter, fireworks destroyer, and relic thief a chance, but with such an insult?!

“It’s no use trying to pressure me. I won’t be fooled.”

Compared to Headmaster Skeleton, he was a very young being, but Ogonin was also a wizard who had gone through a lot of battles.

I didn’t fall for the headmaster’s fuss.

“It’s really fine.”

“is it. Thank goodness… I wondered if I should write a letter to His Majesty the Emperor.”

He’s like a worm-like trash who only knows how to tell, so

Lee-han pretended not to hear.

“ruler. Then let’s continue what we talked about last time.”

For wizards, time is money.

Ogonin immediately began lecturing.

“Do you remember the magic I told you about last time?”

“yes.”

Starting with < Ogonin's Emotion Recognition >, < Ogonin's Rising Anxiety >, < Ogonin's Surging Fear >, and < Ogonin's Rising Despair >, mental fantasy magic.

And even wide-area illusion fog magic like < Ogonin's Fog >.

While other fantasy magics lowered the level of difficulty and increased versatility by mixing magic elements from other schools, Ogonin was a wizard who pursued pure fantasy magic.

‘Of course, it means the level of difficulty is going up.’

“Emotion recognition magic is the basic and beginning. It’s a habit and it’s good to learn it like a habit.”

According to Ogonin’s explanation, excellent illusion wizards can easily recognize the color of their opponent’s soul without using emotion-recognition magic.

To become proficient at that level, you have to keep casting, practicing, and gaining experience.

If you figure out what emotions your opponent is harboring, the power of fantasy magic will be amplified accordingly.

“ruler. Try practicing.”

“…?”

Hearing this, Lee Han hesitated.

to whom?

“To whom?”

“ah. Right. Um…”

Ogonin hesitated.

Ogonin’s Mage’s Tower had a lot of training partners, but there are no other training partners in the principal’s solitary room.

do it to me

“yes?”

“What did you say?”

Try it on me.

“No…”

Ogonin was speechless.

Unlike other magic, the opponent was very important in spirit-type fantasy magic.

Whose emotions would be easier to read, the archmage or the child?

Of course, the first illusion wizard has to raise his skills against the latter…?

“That now…”

“Okay.”

Lee Han swung his staff without thinking.

“Recall, emotion!”

The magic was cast along with the spell. Ogonin asked from the side.

“How is it?”

“The headmaster seems uncomfortable right now.”

“!!!”

Ogonin was horrified enough to drop his staff.

The fact that an illusion wizard who had just learned how to successfully perform emotion-recognition magic against the Headmaster Skeleton…

meant that he was an unprecedented genius in the history of magic.

‘A genius who will inherit the lineage of fantasy magic…!’

Ogonin. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but the magic failed. It’s just that this guy is smart.

Headmaster Skeleton noticed what Ogonin was thinking and sneered.

Magic isn’t a child’s toy, so how could it be learned so easily?

“…was it like that?”

“ah. sorry. If the magic succeeds, it seems to feel a little differently.”

Lee Han apologized.

I just said it because I could clearly see that the Headmaster Skeleton was in a bad mood, but it seemed that it had nothing to do with magic.

“No. It’s a difficult magic. Even more so if the opponent is a great mage.”

“Thank you for your understanding.”

Read loud and fast. Right now, I’m deliberately loosening my defenses.

As much as the Skeleton Headmaster was an educator, he didn’t force himself to the point of nonsense.

It is not to ask them to read it after applying various protection magic.

…Of course, considering the magic defense it possesses, it was already strong enough.

“Come on, feelings. Come to mind, feelings. Come up, emotion!”

After following the instructions a few times, Lee Han was able to figure out what kind of magic this was.

The color began to be applied on top of the skull principal, which was originally in the form of a white skull head.

The color of the emotion the soul had now was clear.

‘Paint reds and grays.’

It was clear to anyone that he felt that he was not in a good mood.

Lee Han continued to cast spells in order to read his emotions more properly.

The Skeleton Headmaster yawned and asked.

Still, if it’s you, you’ll be able to see the level of emotion, right? still not out?

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

Ogonin said as if it were absurd.

I just started, and my opponent is the Archmage.

To be honest, there was a high possibility that I would not be able to read it even after several years.

When the skeleton headmaster left because he was bored after doing it in moderation, he tried to use that as an excuse to find a suitable partner…

He said that because he could do it.

“Anyway, that’s nonsense.”

“We are still far away.”

“Look. Even the students say so. How difficult it is to see any color in another’s soul…”

“…uh. for a moment. Is it okay if I can see the color?”

Lee Han hesitated.

The yawning skeleton headmaster looked at Lee Han with the gaze of ‘What is this kid?

If you look at the color, you’re successful. Then, did you want to have the words ‘I have some feelings’ written on your forehead?

“I thought it should come out a little darker and easier to understand.”

Originally, excellent wizards are good at controlling their emotions. Just because it came out faintly doesn’t mean it’s wrong. That’s good enough.

“thank you.”

Ogonin, who had been listening to the heartwarming conversation between master and pupil, blinked in dismay.

What conversation am I listening to?

“No… no… no… no??”

why though?

“If you’re not playing tricks on me right now… this is… uh…”

Didn’t I tell you I’d learn well?

Headmaster Skeleton had apparently told Ogonin, ‘Well thought out, you’ll learn well with Wodanaz.’

Of course, when Ogonin heard that, he never thought that the student would read the feelings of the Headmaster Skeleton as soon as he learned magic.

Does that…

make sense?

He possesses so much magical power, has excellent talent, and is quick to notice, so it must be said that he is exceptional in this type of magic. Ogonin. Let go of stereotypes.

“no. I was lucky.”

Stop trembling with that disgusting humility.

“really… Amazing…”

Ogonin muttered over and over again, and the headmaster grunted.

So, isn’t it surprising that you failed after casting an illusion spell?

“… let’s continue…”

Ogonin said, his voice still full of amazement.

Although they expected a genius who would succeed the lineage of classical fantasy magic…

Reality was always one step ahead of imagination.

I thought it would be like this…!

* * *

However, the next spell < Ogonin's Rising Anxiety > did not succeed until the end.

Ogonin was convinced that it wasn’t because of Lee Han’s skills, but because of the skeleton headmaster.

I’m betting on the skeleton headmaster, but how can that succeed?

“You are never lacking.”

“no. I am lacking.”

“No. The other person…”

“No. I…”

“Because it’s not!!”

ah. Why do you have a temper though?
