Magic Chronicles : Fallen Race

8/8

"Teacher, tell us more about advanced magic!"

"Yes, yes, Teacher, tell us more!"

"Teacher, I heard that there is a kind of magic called 'Spirit Behind' in some myths and legends. Is it true?"

The classroom atmosphere suddenly became lively.

The previous dull and depressing atmosphere where the professor was teaching and the students were taking notes was broken.

No matter which world, human nature is the same. Students prefer these "off-topic" discussions to dry knowledge.

On the stage, Reji shrugged and showed a smile that didn't seem to mind.

He continued to talk about the "Spirit Behind" magic that a student had excitedly asked about:

"Of course."

"'Spirit Behind' is a common name, and we more formally call it 'Substitute Magic Figure.' This is a significant branch in the magic field. This type of magic usually summons another powerful elemental creature or a pure magic giant to attack on behalf of the caster.

Because this type of magic consumes a lot mana, the magic figure appears at least in the sixth tier or above."

"For example, in the branch of Substitute Magic Figure, I think the most violent and powerful magic is 'Twilight.' This magic is different from other high-level magic. It does not require complicated chanting and can be activated instantly in just a few seconds.

It summons the Spirit of Inferno behind the caster. The Inferno Spirit not only has a wide range of attack capabilities but also carries high magic penetration. Even the most solid armor cannot withstand a hit from 'Twilight.'"

"Of course, as the cost of short chanting and massive power, the duration of 'Twilight' is greatly lower compared to other magic of the same tier, and it will cause backlash to the caster after the magic ends, making them unable to use magic for a long time. It can be said to be a double-edged sword.

If any of you have the opportunity to master this magic in the future, remember to grasp the timing and not use it randomly."

Under Reji's description, the students had already imagined the scene of "Twilight" in their minds. The red fire giant floating behind them, wearing black armor, and releasing surging hellfire with every strike, bringing doom to the enemy.

The scene was very stimulating, even just in their imagination.

As for what Reji said afterward about seizing the opportunity to master it, controlling the timing, and not using it randomly, almost all the students in the classroom took it as a joke from this young teacher.

Except for one female student.

Vielsia's small mouth was unconsciously slightly open, forming a cute "O" shape.

Other humans might have just taken it as a mythical story.

But Vielsia was different.

She had the inheritance of the elves, who were once the highest-talented race in magic. Therefore, Vielsia had also studied the classic spell "Twilight."

Because of this, she was more shocked than any human student in the classroom, no, she was astonished.

'What this teacher said was exactly the same as the "Twilight" recorded in the elven inheritance!?'

'No.'

'It was even more detailed!?'

'This...'

'What is going on?'

If the two high-level spells "Lightning Storm" and "Twilight" were not enough, Reji showed no sign of stopping and began to talk about even deeper and more mysterious realms that even Vielsia was completely unfamiliar with.

Among them was Reji's favorite "God" substitute magic figure, which used low-level pre-spells to iterate and then expand into the final high-level ritual.

There was also the combination of "combat" and "magic," drawing out an elemental blade from within the body, the "Mind Slash" spell.

Reji even expanded to the evolution theory of rituals under the "Void" command line, where, by achieving certain conditions, low-tier spells could evolve into high-tier ones with extra effects.

As Vielsia's attitude towards Reji changed from a good first impression to admiration, and then to being captivated by his words, she became just like the human students around her, with rosy cheeks and an excited expression, wishing she could reveal her pointed ears to listen carefully to every word Reji said.

The only difference was that the human students were fantasizing about using the mythical spells that Reji mentioned to impress others and gain wealth and status.

On the other hand, Vielsia imagined herself mastering these spells and becoming the most outstanding princess of the elven race, crushing the demon race and their minions, and ascending to the throne of the Demon King.

Using the "God" ritual that Reji mentioned, she would slay the Demon King and declare the elves' revenge and return to the world, restoring their former glory!

Although Vielsia disguised herself as a plain and studious girl among humans, she was also a motivated and obedient princess among the elves.

In fact, due to the heavy burden on her shoulders, Vielsia's true inner self was quite repressed. So, whenever she had the chance, she would quietly indulge in these fantasies as a way to release her stress.

Before she knew it, the class was over.

The ringing of the school bell interrupted the lively atmosphere in the classroom, bringing many entranced students back to reality.

Every student had a "What? Class is over already?" expression on their face.

Vielsia was no exception.

This was probably the first time she disliked the sound of the school bell so much.

After class, many students rushed towards Reji's position, eager to learn more about this interesting new teacher and sign up for his courses.

Vielsia was no different.

However, when Reji made it clear that he was only a temporary substitute teacher and did not have any courses of his own in the academy, many students were disappointed but had no choice but to leave.

After rejecting these ordinary human students, Reji, like any other normal teacher, didn't even look at Vielsia, who was hiding in the crowd. He simply packed up his teaching materials and left the classroom.

Unlike the human students, Vielsia had a different motivation. While the humans were studying for credits and graduation, Vielsia was doing it for the elven race and for the world!

As Vielsia came to her senses after class, she realized that the young new teacher was full of mystery.

'Why did this human know so much about advanced magic?'

'Why did he seem to have a deep understanding of ancient history?'

'What was this human's identity?'

'What kind of power did he have behind him?'

Vielsia became more and more curious, and it was as if there were cat claws scratching at her heart.

'No!'

'I must catch up with this professor!'

She didn't want credits or courses, but rather the professor's magical knowledge and the mystery surrounding him. She wanted to learn more about this human!

Thinking about it, Vielsia no longer hesitated.

Her intuition told her not to miss this opportunity, or she would regret it forever.

And she always trusted her intuition.

So, for the first time, Vielsia, the "excellent student," ignored the end of class and even skipped class to chase after Reji's figure, no longer hesitant, running and calling out.

"Teacher!"

"Teacher Reji, please wait!"

Meanwhile, Reji.

He stopped just in time at a corner of the stairs where no one was around.

In the shadow of the sunlight outside the window, behind the pursuing Vielsia, was a slight curve on the corner of Reji's mouth.

It seemed that the first step of the plan was successfully completed.

Next was the second step.

Named by Reji as "The Excellent Student After Class"
