Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Episode 786

What Lee Han likes is a senior who has a lot of gold and knows how to spread that gold to his juniors, not a senior who tries to pamper him for free.

How could he become Einrogard’s senior and commit such a shameless and atrocious act?

“Oh no. Junior. Senior Zaroon is a person who is crazy about gold. “It was originally like that.”

When the junior glared at Zaroon coldly, Carnella was embarrassed and came to his defense.

The reason why Zaroon was said to have the greatest talent for saving money was not simply because he continued to mine in his spare time.

If you think about it that way, there were a few more students doing magic research that could earn them a high income.

What made Zaroon special was his spirit of frugality that others could not match.

Not a single penny is wasted!

-Zarun. Today’s Kitchen Club menu is good. You too go and eat.

-I don’t need it.

-why? It’s noodles with a generous amount of serpent meat for one gold coin. Did you know when this day would come? Do you want to buy stone bread with salted meat for a gold coin?

-joy. If you don’t buy it at all, it won’t cost you a single gold coin.

Zaroon’s legendary story did not end there.

-Zarun. I told you to stop being stubborn and buy the reagents! If you don’t pay for it, you won’t be able to finish it within this semester!

-I would rather go to the punishment room and not pay for this!

Refusing to buy reagents, refusing to use the wand for fear of it wearing out, hanging golden accessories in the air instead of wearing them and looking at them…

These were extraordinary incidents that any student of the school of transformation magic would know about.

As Carnella spoke, her voice grew louder as if she was filled with resentment.

“Do you know what it was like the last time I came to pick you up? The chair is gone. The chair! When I asked, that damn senior took the chair away! “They say it’s a waste because it gets worn out when I sit on it!”

“joy. “Do you know that the chairs are free?”

Zaroon grumbled.

Even now that I think about it, I feel like it was a waste of the worn-out chair that Carnella was sitting on.

‘That’s why there were no chairs.’

Lee Han was able to understand later why there were no chairs in this workshop.

“Senior Hormasi. “I know very well that Senior Zaroon is a frugal person.”

“hey. “This isn’t savings, this is crazy.”

Lee Han pretended not to hear and said what he wanted to say.

“But that is that and this is this. I have always been paid for what I do. Even from Professor Verdus.”

“…!”

Carnella was astonished.

I knew that this junior had a genius talent for magic, but I never thought he would get paid for it from Professor Verdus.

‘Nol… Amazing! how!’

It was an interesting story that made me want to see what Carnella, a school unrelated to Professor Verdus, did.

“That’s amazing… but like I said, even if you stab Zaroon, not a single drop of blood comes out. “He’s the type of person who puts everything into transformation magic because he doesn’t think it’s a waste of money.”

Carnella left the simple metaphor and stabbed Zaroon with a real needle.

He had attacked Zarun with students from the School of Transformation Magic.

Even in the midst of the chaos, Zarun felt like he didn’t want to waste even a single drop of his blood, so he filled it with transformation magic and splashed out.

A person like that would definitely…

“I would just reject your offer.”

“Ok.”

“?!”

Karnella was startled by Zaroon’s moans coming from behind.

“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupup at Thereup at there out there… out there…” there up there…”

Zaroon was groaning with a pained expression on his face, as if he was seriously ill.

“What’s wrong, Senior Zaroon? So I told you not to skimp on what you eat! “Kitchen Club food is serving well these days!”

“I’m not hungry. You idiot! “It hurts!”

“It must hurt because I didn’t eat it!”

“It’s heartbreaking!”

Zaroon growled angrily.

It was because of the suggestion of a junior who dared to make a cruel and indecent offer to pay in gold coins.

The offer itself was painful, but the reality of not being able to refuse was even more painful.

I needed a competent assistant to carry out the research I was currently working on.

‘Progress is too slow. I started it for the first time today, but it is impossible to complete at this speed. ‘I need an assistant, but…’

And the junior in front of me right now is a talent that is hard to find anywhere.

Not only did he perfectly learn all the necessary magic, but he even assisted in the production of Dobruk’s illusion potion at the alchemy workshop.

It was difficult to find such talent anywhere. In particular, aren’t all the upper-year students at Einrogard busy with their own research?

‘What if you think of it as an investment to conduct research? Pfft. This is ridiculous. How could I deceive myself with such contradictions? But you need an assistant. Pfft. Ugh. ‘Ugh.’

“Junior. I think it would be better to just leave. “I think Senior Zaroon has broken down.”

“All right. Next time…”

“…Wait!”

Zaroon called out to Lee Han in a desperate voice that sounded like metal clashing against iron.

“I will give you compensation…!”

“Are you sure you’re going to cause me that much pain?”

The dark elf student shook his head as if he found it hard to believe.

* * *

Negotiations that started at three and a half gold coins per hour had to stop for a moment because of Zarun’s desperate screams every time the gold coin went up.

Despite this, Lee Han did not change his expression and pushed ahead with the negotiations.

No concessions!

‘I think I’ve grown too.’

For the first time since Lee Han entered second grade, he felt like he had become a little more mature.

He had been deceived by his professors every time, but this was the first time he was able to make his point come true.

“…look at this.”

Zaroon spoke hoarsely from screaming.

It was heartbreaking, but I had to move on quickly. Since I paid with gold coins, every minute and every second was a waste.

“My research now… ‘Come Out Now, Quickly’…”

“…It’s called dimensional transformation golden observation and collection research, right?”

“why?”

“senior. Listen to your junior here. I think that’s better too. “Right now, no matter where I submit my name, it will be ignored.”

Zaroon grumbled a bit and then changed the name of the study. Meanwhile, Lee Han and Carnella observed the research closely as students of the School of Transformation Magic.

Then, unlike the fresh shock I felt when I first saw it, the loopholes in the research came into view.

“Isn’t the speed at which this connected dimension is being transformed increasingly slow?”

“that’s right. You saw it right. And the device that supports it… seems too weak. “If I spin it for another hour or two, it’ll break.”

“To secure gold meaningfully, I think we need to increase the scale of capture by significantly increasing the number of connected dimensions and greatly increasing the conversion speed.”

“But then, can you cover the cost?”

“Well said both.”

Zaroon sighed.

“This ‘Dimension Conversion Golden Observation Capture’ research is too slow and consumes a lot of equipment. It started for the first time today, but it will stop soon. Now that we’ve checked the speed… we need to increase the stability and speed.”

“How are you going to upload it, sir? “Is there a way?”

Carnella, who was asking, clapped her hands as if she remembered something.

“ah. Let’s change the support device here to ‘The Gold of Faldar Rji’. Then it will be able to withstand the impact of dimensional transformation much better.”

“Mi… don’t be crazy!”

Zaroon looked like he was having a heart attack at his junior’s words.

The gold of Faldar Rji.

I had no idea how much gold coins I would have to spend to get it.

“why. “It’s gold, too.”

“It’s a metaphor, you crazy idiot! “How is that gold?”

‘hmm. ‘You shouldn’t joke about gold in front of your seniors.’

Lee Han thought to himself as he watched the conversation between the two.

Zaroon, who had been angry for a while, finally calmed down and opened his mouth.

“I have been thinking about whether this method is necessary. Until now, I went around Einrogard’s workshop, picked up scrap materials, and recycled them.”

“……”

‘ah. It’s really embarrassing.’

Carnella glanced at Lee Han while listening.

Even among all the schools of Einrogard, there seemed to be no place so shameful.

“But it seems like there are limits to recycling waste. So I’m going to create some new materials.”

“Isn’t your belly button bigger than your stomach?”

Creating new substances by changing the properties of substances was the specialty of transformation wizards.

Armor made of flowing river water.

A book made of the air of hell.

Of course, this was never easy.

It is quite difficult to change characteristics in an instant, but it is much more difficult to find characteristics in an area that are stable enough to be maintained permanently.

If we can find these properties and create a new material that maintains stable transformation…

‘…I think it’s right to focus on that as a graduation project.’

“It’s not easy. But there are some directions that have been set.”

Zarun’s inelastic rubber

Zarun’s surface Lava

Zarun’s…

“!”

Lee Han was intrigued by the list of new materials for research that Zaroon was looking for.

They were researching materials that were more useful than expected.

In the case of 〈Zaroon’s Inelastic Rubber〉, it was made of a material that maximized several other properties after removing the elasticity of rubber, and once it came into contact, it spread like a swamp and enveloped foreign substances.

‘What if I use this for a trap?’

It was a trick that even fairly experienced wizards would be quite embarrassed when they first encountered it.

“What you need to do is to continue experimenting in this direction, casting magic, and writing down the results.”

“senior. I’m sorry to wake you up, but it’s not you guys. “This junior is alone.”

“…what you have to do. Are you done?”

“huh. “Thank you.”

Lee Han took note of Zarun’s words exactly and nodded.

“understand. Seniors. “We will proceed like this.”

“okay. Please…”

Knock knock-

“?”

Zaroon stopped at the sound coming from outside.

“Who are you, senior? “Are there any other guests?”

“I don’t have any. More than that… I activated the magic again after you guys came in. “What kind of guy is this?”

“It looks like someone came to steal your gold. Why don’t you show them what they’re doing?”

“dare!”

A spark of greed flashed in Zarun’s eyes. Zarun grabbed the hammer-shaped staff and ran to the door in anger.

Rattling!

“Come at me! “You thief!”

“……”

The person standing in front of the door was Professor Yonramo of the Rji family, who was in charge of transformation magic.

The professor looked at Zaroon and asked.

“What are you doing when you’re not lecturing?”

“…uh, that’s it. professor.”

Zaroon rolled his eyes and quickly tried to close the door.

At that moment, Professor Yonramo’s cape turned into dozens of tentacles and grabbed Zarun and swallowed him.

gulp!

The professor sighed.

“I did something instead of lecturing. I don’t know why all students do this. Isn’t that right, you two?”

“…yes!”

“I agree. professor!”

Lee Han and Carnella answered quickly, fearing that the professor’s anger would spill over to them.

I was worried that they would ask me what I was doing here if I didn’t bring them.

“But what were you two doing here?”

“I was helping with magic.”

“Hormasi? “It’s unexpected, isn’t it?”

“no. “I am.”

“……”

Professor Yonramo stared at Lee Han.

I definitely thought that this boy from the Wardanaz family was under pressure from the principal and some other professors because of his natural talent against his will…

‘Maybe he just really likes magic?’

I was a little suspicious that this was actually the case, although he just didn’t admit it to himself.

Professor Yonramo shrugged his shoulders and said.

“Then finish your studies and come out. Today’s lecture will be canceled anyway.”

“Uh…”

Lee Han wanted to say, ‘Senior, I’m missing gold coins, so can I get up?’ But the professor’s cape, which had just turned into a tentacle, caught his eye, so he couldn’t get the words out.
