Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Chapter 260

When the lecture was over, Professor Verdus approached Lee Han with an innocent face.

“Do you have time to learn?”

“…professor. I don’t think I have time right now because I’m thinking about my final exam assignments.”

Lee Han pointed to the shield and said.

Professor Verdus asked with a surprised expression.

“What are you talking about!? How many things need fixing on this shield!?”

“Of course I do, but I have to fix it at my level.”

“ah!”

At Lee Han’s words, Professor Verdus exclaimed as if he had finally realized.

Lee Han wanted to hit Professor Verdus once.

“It’s difficult!”

“Yes?”

“Um… um… uhm… what you can do at your level…”

Professor Verdus closed his eyes, thought for a moment, then opened his mouth.

“there is!”

“oh. What is it?”

“How about adding an attack reflection magic?”

“…how on earth can that be done at my level?”

Lee Han doesn’t know much about endowment magic yet, but I guessed that the attribute of ‘reflection’ in endowment magic would never be easy.

The concept of returning the direction of an incoming attack as it is couldn’t be easier.

The answer came out when comparing it with attributes such as floating automatic defense.

“Is that as easy as it gets?”

“Is that so…”

Yihan pondered whether to seriously study the reflective properties or to claim that he had just painted the shield and upgraded it.

‘If the final exam grades fail, the overall score will be hit to some extent…’

Beside Lee Han, who is worried, Professor Verdus asked again innocently.

“Anyway, you’ve been chosen, so now you have time to learn?”

“no?”

“?!?!?!”

Professor Verdus looked at Lee Han with the expression he would have made when all the bark he had collected had been burned.

* * *

‘I’m proud.’

Lee Han, who sat in his seat, was happy to recall the expression on Professor Verdus’ face.

In fact, this was Lee Han’s lifeline.

The moment Professor Verdus said, ‘Yes, I will learn’, it was obvious that Professor Verdus would hold on to Lee Han until he was satisfied.

I had to endure and endure.

‘If possible, I hope I can hold out until graduation.’

On the eve of the graduation ceremony, Lee Han said to Professor Verdus, ‘I will learn tomorrow’ and then imagined graduating.

Of course, it might be difficult to endure that far…

“Has anyone done the < Basic Imperial Geometry and Arithmetic > assignment?”

“Who has already done that? …Wardanaz?”

One of the Blue Dragon Tower students was talking and suddenly looked at Lee Han.

Lee Han replied as if it was absurd.

“I couldn’t either. no. Can’t you see the tasks piled up in front of me right now?”

While his friends picked out one or two schools of magic to listen to, Lee Han was now listening to black magic, summoning magic, fantasy enchantment, magic foresight, magic conversion magic, healing magic, and so on.

My friends quietly laid their eyes on a pile of thick books several times.

He was afraid that if he met Lee Han’s eyes, he would end up studying together.

‘I should think about the < Basic Empire Geometry and Arithmetic > assignment.’

Saturday.

It was a weekend that wouldn’t be strange if everyone stretched out, but as the final exams were about a week away, there was a lot of tension in the tower.

Hell’s final exams until next week Hell’s final exams until the next week… There

were even lectures where assignments and final exams were linked or combined.

The < Basic Imperial Geometry and Arithmetic > assignment fell into that category.

-Draft and submit a draft of a simple magical structure. After submitting, we will go into production as soon as we receive confirmation. Efficiency and economy will be the criteria for evaluation.

-Okay… Do we have to get the ingredients too?

-It’s a pity, but we won’t allow materials other than those specified. Make sure to use only the ingredients provided.

-thank you!!

-??

It wasn’t a task with an absurd level of difficulty like grant magic.

However, this was a formidable and time consuming task.

Choose a structure, choose the right magic to put into the structure, choose the materials needed for that magic, make a tight estimate as much as possible, and make it yourself if you pass… ‘

…The wizard I initially thought of was a bit more mysterious.’

After entering Einrogard, it seemed that only the mystery about magicians was disappearing day by day.

Lee Han glanced out the window. The sun was already rising overhead.

The moment I took the phone rig out to the Spire Stables this evening, I had to assume that the whole weekend flew by.

I have to finish as many assignments as possible…

“Yoner. What is the simplest structure?”

“huh?”

Yoner, who was drawing a simple potion cabinet beside him, raised his head.

“A magic lamp or a box? A simple trap?”

“Hmm.”

Lee Han took notes one by one and was lost in thought.

Is there anything that is simple, easy to complete, requires low material costs, and is highly evaluated?

“…If there was such a thing, I would have done it first, right?”

Yoner was worried that something had happened to his friend because he studied too much.

However, Lee Han was seriously engrossed.

Something seemed to come to mind.

“…Yoner. I found it!”

“what?”

Yoner almost broke his quill in surprise.

Did you find something that met the conditions just mentioned?

Is there such a thing??

“Look at this.”

Lee Han drew a magic lantern in the form of an elongated pole.

It was a structure that glowed with magic that was often installed in cities, castles, fortresses, and village streets.

As much as it lit up the dark streets, there was no place where it could not be installed, and thanks to it, it served as a food line for many training wizards.

But that also meant that there was a lot of research.

There were all sorts of improved magic lights, brighter, cheaper, longer, more efficient, more brilliant, and even with additional features.

Professor Alpen Knighton said that efficiency and saving were the criteria for evaluation, but if the design overlapped too much with existing designs, it was inevitable that points would be deducted.

Did Han Lee create a design that is differentiated from those existing designs?

“…?!”

Yoner was surprised to see the magic lamp pointed at by Yihan.

There was nothing but the shape of a long pole.

‘no way?’

Yoner recalled the duration of the sphere of light his friend summoned.

And the duration of the Floating Shield.

“No way… are you trying to get rid of all the designs and solve it with magic alone?!”

A secret plan that only Lee Han can do.

It was magic design, dispersion, and everything, and then he cast magic himself.

If others had heard it, they would say ‘what kind of design is that’, but this also had some truth.

As long as the magic lasted for more than a few days, it could be called a magical construct no matter how undesigned it was!

Of course, I didn’t know how Professor Knighton would react to that nonsense, but it was clear that it was an ingenious idea.

“…what nonsense you are talking about. Yoner. I haven’t drawn it yet.”

Lee Han looked at Yoner as if he was absurd. Yoner blushed slightly in embarrassment.

“no?”

“no. There’s no way the professor would approve of that kind of nonsense.”

“Maybe you’ll admit it…”

Yoner blurted out his words as if he wasn’t confident.

“What I was thinking was this. Yoner. By layering an amplifying magic circle on this side, the efficiency is increased. There will be trial and error, but it will cost much less material.”

Lee Han’s explanation was certainly correct.

The production difficulty would go up, but it was a draft that could save material costs if you had the skills.

However, Yoner remained slightly remorseful and asked.

“…You really didn’t plan on doing that?”

“Because there is none.”

* * *

Paaah!

Lee Han filled the phone league with an invisibility artifact.

“Phone League. kind. You have to be quiet until you go. got it?”

-Puhhh…?

The phone league looked at Lee Han anxiously, wondering why he was like this.

Compared to other students, the owner of the Phone League was a bit unusual.

“Yes, yes. It is extraordinary.”

Phone League tilted its head and followed Lee Han.

The Death Knights waved at Lee Han as he walked towards the main entrance.

-Don’t go around too late. Wardanaz County.

“yes. I will keep that in mind.”

– Why are you nagging me like that? You may be running late. If anyone hears it, they’ll think you didn’t take a night walk!

– Shh shh! Wardanaz-kun is listening!

‘You’re warm.’

Thanks to having already talked with the Death Knights around the main gate, Lee Han was able to move without any suspicion.

Fortunately, there was also a side road to the Spire Stables.

‘It’s so smooth that it makes me anxious.’

Less than 30 minutes later, when they arrived near the spire stable, Lee Han felt uncomfortable.

Having been in Einrogard for a long time, he had developed a habit of being unnecessarily anxious even when things went well.

‘Covering his face with a cloak…’

Lee Han put on the cloak as if he were going out.

If Amour visits from outside, I pretend to be friends with Amour and go out together.

‘There is a chance.’

I was a bit worried at first, but seeing the people coming and going from the stable, it looked like I had a good chance of winning.

Surprisingly, there were a lot of guests, so it was busy.

From the professors to the top employees, merchants, and errand runners who came in from outside.

People were moving around, bumping shoulders with each other because of the crowd.

No one cared about Lee Han.

“Aren’t wizards really doing too much!? I want you to bring Hwaryeongjo’s eggs within a week! How can you bring it back in a week!?”

“hey! Be careful putting the box down there! If it breaks, we could all die!”

“Did you hear a demon inside?”

“no. It’s a glass statue the principal ordered.”

“……”

While listening to the warm conversation, a familiar face flew in from afar.

‘Amour!’

Amour skillfully landed and filled out the entry and exit log.

And then I looked around.

“I think so.”

“…at las!”

Amour didn’t expect much, but was overjoyed to see Lee Han there.

“That’s great. I didn’t expect! I didn’t know you could do this.”

“It is still too early to rejoice.”

“You don’t have to worry. It’s like success as long as you’ve come this far. When the merchants leave, we go out together.”

Lee Han nodded.

He kept his expression calm, but Lee Han’s heart was pounding.

If successful, Lee Han will periodically secure a way out of school.

While Amur put down the cargo he had brought, Lee Han fed Ponrig with < Curse Magic Cancellation Potion >.

pop!

Ponrig, who returned to his original form, was delighted as he scratched the floor.

“…I thought it was a joke, but I thought it was real.”

Amour was surprised to see the griffon happily yawning in the corner of the spire stable.

No matter how you look at it, it’s not a monster that a first-year student can tame.

“The griffon is unusual, so it won’t get noticed, right?”

“Nothing to worry about. There are a lot of beasts that are more unusual than griffon here.”

As Amour said, the animals in the neighborhood were too full of personality.

Lee Han tried to avoid the gaze of the human face bird staring at him.

“Slowly our turn is coming. Get ready.”

“yes.”

The spire stables were so wide that you couldn’t see them from one end to the other, but that was overshadowed by the large mounts bumping into and out of each other.

Of course, in this case, the order was set.

People flying outside toward the entrance and waiting outside, and people sitting and waiting at the exit.

Lee Han glanced around. Perhaps because of the cold weather in the sky, there were many people wearing cloaks.

– Let’s go to the next group! depart!

The stable keeper did not catch Lee Han. Lee Han took Griffon and walked slowly.

Pak!

The griffon kicked off the brick and flew into the sky. Lee Han felt a great sense of release.

“You tamed the griffon.”

“…?!?!?!?!?!?!?”

Hearing Professor Voladi’s calm voice from beside him, Lee Han almost lost control of the griffon and fell to the ground.
