Chapter 107
Although Lee Han covered his eyes, he could see what was happening.
I wanted to deny it, but I felt it with my whole body.
Now, Professor Voladi was summoning other elements besides the lightning element.
‘That means…’ In
fact, just blindfolding Lee Han to avoid lightning strikes was a great thing.
The person himself was busy avoiding it, but there was no way that Professor Voladi would smile because of something.
It is difficult to read the trajectory of a horse before it is shot by lightning.
The body’s eyesight trained through swordsmanship training.
Innate magic power perception.
It wouldn’t have been possible without either of these two.
However, when Lee Han made it too easy, Professor Voladi raised the difficulty casually.
It was a sight that would have made Professor Garcia go by and see it, ‘What are you doing!?’
To do something difficult even with your eyes open in complete darkness.
The problem was that Lee Han did it perfectly there again.
Then Professor Voladi casually raised the level of difficulty again.
A professor and a student who don’t hit the brakes on each other.
Thanks to this, on the first day of elemental detection training, Lee Han had to go through an ordeal with an unbelievable level of difficulty.
In a way, it was self-sufficient.
‘…Are the other elements a trick?’
Not realizing that he had dug his own grave, Lee Han just focused.
It wasn’t just lightning, he could feel the energy of other elements. It was not a time to think about other things leisurely.
There was only one reason why Professor Voladi floated other elements in the same situation.
Trickery!
The way Lee Han escaped the lightning in an invisible space was simple.
With his eyes closed and his body vision blocked, he only saw the match with pure magical power perception.
If you look at the flow of lightning that simply shoots out in a straight line, there are many changes in a short period of time.
Realizing that mana is slightly condensed to obtain explosive power the moment it is fired, Lee Han grasps the precursory phenomenon and avoids the lightning.
But now, when elements of different properties, not lightning, start to mix here and there… I
had to classify them by attribute of magic, detect omens, and find only lightning from among them to catch the phenomenon of condensation of magic power.
Besides, given Professor Voladi’s damned personality, elements of other attributes that had been put on standby as a trick could have joined the attack, so he had to pay attention to that as well.
‘Can I do it?’
Lee Han raised his head toward the elements that emit a presence in the dark.
It honestly seemed impossible.
If that’s the case…
‘Getting hit as little as possible!’
* * *
Lee Han’s expectations were wrong.
Surprisingly, Lee Han succeeded again.
“……”
Professor Voladi, who would normally have said what he had to say, was also silent for a moment in surprise.
‘It’s natural.’
The boy of the Wardanaz family possessed not only enormous magical power.
Come to think of it, since I was born with such an enormous magical power, learning magic by handling that magical power was an incredibly difficult task in itself.
Especially if it’s a freshman.
The boy of the Wodanaz family thought that the speed at which he learned magic was not that great, perhaps because of his humble personality.
Of course, that level was fast enough, but it was also true that there was a slight feeling of being pushed back compared to the childhood of genius wizards like the Empire’s giraseong.
However, that was a story when I did not calculate the amount of magical power I had.
The fact that he had that much magic and learned magic at that speed was proof of his talent.
Normally, it was difficult to notice it because of the magic it possessed, but when it sensed the magic around it, the story was different.
In a field where there is no penalty for the amount of horsepower, fragments of talent will inevitably flow out.
right!
Professor Voladi made the handkerchief that covered Lee Han’s eyes disappear.
Despite having done such a great job, the Wodanaz boy remained calm. The professor didn’t even bother to say anything.
“I didn’t expect to pass all of them on the first day.”
“…Maybe it’s because the professor did it all at once.”
Lee Han politely changed the meaning of ‘So, let’s do some work from now on’.
However, it was not well conveyed to the professors when I originally said it politely.
“You don’t need to be thankful.”
“?”
For a moment, Lee Han wondered what he was talking about.
And belatedly understood.
Professor Boladi now thought Lee Han had said, ‘Thanks to the professor who gave me the assignment at once, I was able to pass it all like this’.
‘…I must be crazy.’
While Lee Han was frustrated, Professor Boladi continued.
“Originally, I was going to spend more time training for elemental detection. But I don’t think that’s necessary.”
Lee Han was relieved. Listening to Professor Voladi’s words, today’s lecture seemed to be over for now.
Professor Voladi held out a cloth-wrapped package.
“You seem tired.”
“…!”
Lee Han was surprised.
Of course, I was tired because I avoided the lightning with my eyes open and closed my eyes to avoid the lightning.
However, he had never imagined that Professor Voladi would be so concerned.
‘what?’
At first, I wondered if there was some kind of trap inside the package, but Professor Voladi wasn’t as malicious as Headmaster Skeleton.
Lee Han carefully unwrapped the package.
‘Are there any medicinal ingredients?’
Inside the package was a magic book. Professor Voladi nodded.
“A book on basic lightning magic and its applications. Let it cook until next time.”
“……”
Professor Voladi was not a person with the same malice as the Headmaster Skeleton.
It’s just that people are a bit crazy.
Lee Han belatedly realized the meaning of Professor Boladi’s words, ‘You seem tired’.
It was just a pure expression of what I was thinking after seeing Lee Han.
The horse and the package were completely different!
“…All right.”
Lee Han put in the magic book while managing his expression.
Even if he cursed, he had to go to a place where Professor Boladi was not there.
‘Come to think of it, wasn’t this week the paper test week?’
Come to think of it, the magic that Professor Voladi gave me to learn was not important.
Professor Voladi doesn’t have a paper test, but the other lectures probably won’t.
-■■■!
Lee Han turned his head to the screams of the summoned beast outside the classroom in the front yard of the main building.
“What is that?”
“Professors are taking care of the escaped summons.”
“??”
Lee Han did not understand.
Just last week, escaped summoned creatures roamed around the school, but the professors weren’t paying attention.
why all of a sudden
“Is anything going on? why?”
“It can interfere with taking the test, so I’ll deal with it.”
“……”
Lee Han, at a loss for words, bowed to leave the classroom.
‘I just asked…’
* * *
The book < Basic Lightning Elemental Magic and Its Application > that Professor Voladi gave me was a better book than I thought.
‘no. Who wrote this?’
Considering that most magic books don’t take into account that new students read at all, < Basic Lightning Elemental Magic and its Applications > was really kind.
The Circle 1 magic < Generate Lightning > wasn’t just about explaining spells and movements.
Unlike other circle 1 elemental magics, it is quite difficult to fix the location of the lightning element after it is created. The most common mistake made by fledgling wizards is to summon the elemental lightning and then lose control and scatter it in an unspecified direction. To prepare for this, prepare the following. First, when there are no other people around, wearing thick clothes that do not allow the lightning element to pass through well…
Lee Han checked the back, wanting to find other books by the wizard who wrote this book. However, there was no author.
‘Is this a book written in a magic school?’
There were more books of the empire that were not systematically mass-produced. There were many that were handed down after an individual wrote a few books by hand.
The books in the magic school were even more so.
When I go to the library, the books are sorted in a disorderly manner, and I can’t recognize the writing of more than half of them.
Basically, wizards are those who are satisfied with themselves and do not care about others!
‘If I were a bookstore owner, I’d get rid of all those books.’
Apart from his hatred of Professor Voladi, Lee Han thought he should read this book some more.
Isn’t the book flawed?
And next time, Professor Voladi will definitely give a lecture under the assumption that Han Lee has mastered this book…
“Nice to meet you, Wodanaz!”
Lee Han was taken aback when the professor cheerfully spoke to him from behind. That was never a good sign.
Fortunately, the other person was a familiar face. It was Professor Voladi’s few friends, Professor Kirmin Koo.
“Are you going to the < Understanding Basic Magic > lecture? Right?”
“yes.”
“Great! we can go together I was just on my way to the classroom.”
Professor Kirmin was such a cheerful person that it was hard to believe that he was friends with Professor Voladi.
Lee Han had a little bit of anticipation at that appearance.
Professors who are young, have good personalities and have good friendships are more likely to treat students well.
Of course, I didn’t know if the law would work at magic school…
“Are you teaching fantasy magic?”
“okay. Professor Baegrek doesn’t like illusion magic, but illusion magic is useful in many ways.”
It was an infinite law to the point that if you dig deep into any field of magic, you can’t see the end.
Applying barrier magic to prevent intruders in an area or giving illusions to enemies is only a part of illusion magic.
There were wizards who combined with space magic to create a bizarre fantasy labyrinth that could not exist in reality, and there were wizards who combined with mental magic to defeat opponents just by making eye contact.
After hearing the explanation, Lee Han thought to himself.
‘It would be nice to steal.’
Covering one’s body with illusions to avoid eye contact, or destroying fantasy magic installed on one’s body, etc.
No matter how kindly Professor Kirmin explained it, I couldn’t help but think of something else.
“Wardanaz. Seeing you the other day, I thought you knew you had a talent for illusion magic.”
Lee Han was delighted with Professor Kirmin’s words.
Originally, I had to be careful when I heard something like ‘You have talent’ from a professor.
The moment you lose your guard, you can be dragged under the professor and forced to become a disciple.
However, it was already too late for Lee Han to worry about that. From the moment I entered magic school, I had no choice but to learn under the professor.
The important thing was to find a kind and decent professor.
And Professor Kirmin might be a kind and decent professor.
I wasn’t sure yet…
‘Illusion magic isn’t bad either. As long as you learn everything well, can’t you eat and live anywhere?’
“In fantasy magic, there are more important things than a lot of magic power, excellent elemental affinity, or extraordinary calculation power. That’s fine control. In my opinion, wodhanaz you are born.”
“…???”
Lee Han was taken aback.
What to Lee Han, who is far from fine control because of his enormous magical power?
‘Aren’t you mistaken because of the assignment submission the other day?’
It wasn’t that Lee Han’s talent wasn’t outstanding.
“persimmon… thank you.”
“I was wondering if there are any fields of magic that you are interested in. Usually gifted freshmen like you choose several fields, not just one.”
“I haven’t decided yet.”
Professor Kirmin changed Lee Han’s answer and asked a question.
“Then… who other than Professor Baegrek has ever met a professor outside of lecture time?”
It was not a field that Lee Han was interested in, but a question to know the professors who were interested in Lee Han.
It is not only the disciples who choose their teachers, but also the teachers who choose their disciples.
“First of all, Professor Thunderstruck…”
“Aha. alchemy.”
“Professor Lightning Step.”
“zoology.”
“And Professor Willow.”
“botany.”
“Professor Mortum…”
“Is it black magic?”
“Professor Millais too.”
“Summoning magic. Wait, wait.”
Professor Kirmin hesitated.
It was too many.
