Chapter 151
Professor Garcia, who was counting quickly, stopped thinking.
Because it didn’t make any sense.
No matter how many, it didn’t change the fact that the outstanding student in front of me was on the verge of being crushed to death by magic.
‘Should I dry it…?’
Professor Garcia hesitated as he tried to speak.
Does Professor Garcia have the right to stop this?
It was true that Lee Han had a genius talent for endowment magic.
I didn’t know that if I broke it, it would be a huge loss to the Empire, the magic world, and the individual students.
Didn’t Professor Garcia listen to all the lectures he could take while attending magic school?
Is Professor Garcia really qualified to stop Lee Han?
I thought there was no Professor Troll.
‘…okay. Until this. Let’s just learn this.’
From the next magic, really stop it…
“Cheer up. Lee Han student.”
“Thank you as always. professor.”
Lee Han bowed politely and stood up. Professor Garcia suddenly became curious and asked.
“Are you going to enjoy the festival with your friends now?”
“yes.”
Seeing the treasure chest Lee Han had on his side, Professor Garcia smiled.
It wasn’t good to focus too much on magic when you were a freshman.
Building memories of friendship with friends like that is something I have to do…
“After meeting Eumidhus and receiving his teachings, and meeting the priests of the Aphha Church and training in fire elemental magic.”
“……”
Looking at Lee Han’s back as he nodded and left, Professor Garcia regretted that he should have stopped him.
* * *
Eumidhus was waiting, dressed as a man about to go on a picnic.
A straw hat to block out the sun and trousers made of tough fabric gave off a feeling of spaciousness as if you were running a rural farm yourself.
But Lee Han was not vigilant.
‘That person is Professor Voladi’s teacher.’
That alone made Eumidhus one of the most dangerous people in this magic school.
“Can we leave?”
“Are you going to climb the mountain?”
“yes.”
Lee Han did not ask, ‘What are you going to do in the mountains?’
“If you go up the mountain, I will bring something to eat and drink.”
“Didn’t you… miss lunch? You can come and eat.”
“no. I also ate my lunch, but will Eumidhus-sama be hungry after climbing the mountain?”
“…!”
Eumidhus was astonished.
The disciple is trying to take care of the master.
It was an amazing look that I could never see from those who came to learn magic from Yumidhus.
– Mr. Eumidhus. I’m here to learn magic. when do you start? Let’s start soon. It’s because I don’t have much time.
– Mr. Eumidhus. Are you ignoring me now? You know I can’t do a single magic like this. How rude you are!
– Mr. Eumidhus. To be objective, this magic isn’t very good magic. it’s okay. Anyone can make mistakes, right? Please teach me another magic.
I closed my eyes and the words and actions of the guys I had been looking for so far passed by.
In fact, this was partly Eumidhus’ fault.
Basically, wizards have talent, and the more skillful they become, the less squeamish they become.
Eumidhus laid all kinds of trials and traps around the tower located in the remote place where he lived.
Most of the wizards who broke through and came back had no choice but to have high noses and be rude.
‘…How can you be such a disciple under someone like Voladi Baegrek?’
“Are you okay?”
As Eumidhus stood still with his eyes closed, Lee Han asked in bewilderment.
“I was a bit surprised, but it’s okay. Then, let me treat you once.”
“yes.”
Lee Han turned around and went to the cabin.
-professor. Give me something to eat.
-…Did you leave it to me!?
-Yumidihus said he wanted to see the mountain range. You can’t just go bare-handed, can you?
-…I know you’re having a hard time at the festival and I’m giving it to you. Got it?
-of course. thank you professor. There is only a professor.
-A voice that is not even in the heart…
Lee Han brought plenty of food and drinks in a basket.
A large smoked ham and sausage, a bottle of sour pickled cucumber and vegetables, white bread, and soft jams and sauces to spread on it. In addition, Professor Thunderwalker borrowed tea and milk he had just brewed and brought them.
Eumidhus, who had thought at best to fetch water in a jug of jerky or leather, was taken aback.
“All of this?”
“oh. Are you short of it? I will bring more.”
“no no. Suffice! that’s enough!”
Eumidhus was puzzled by the abundant snacks, but was also amazed.
Umidihus knew how the new students here at the magic school were being bullied by Gonadaltes.
But now, the boy in front of me was getting food as if he were taking out something from his pocket.
It was indeed a great skill.
“Then let’s go. Mr Eumidhus. I will carry the burden for you.”
“It’s not heavy at all because it’s strengthened with magic?”
“Still, you’re trying to teach me, but I think it’s right for me to listen.”
“…Are you going to continue learning from Voladi Bagrek?”
Eumidhus unwittingly spoke out.
Thinking that a guy like Professor Voladi would enjoy a good meal with such a good student made his blood boil without realizing it.
* * *
‘Amazing. It’s amazing!’
Eumidhus admired every few minutes as he and Lee Han walked along.
I wasn’t surprised by Lee Han’s magical abilities or talents. In fact, I had already seen enough of it in the last underground dungeon.
In the first place, there was no need to ask about magical abilities or talents as long as the freshman could catch the demon by himself.
What Eumidhus admired was Lee Han’s upright personality.
Brilliantly shining personality that can never be seen in the excellent wizards of the empire!
Human nature cannot be hidden to the end.
Even if you hide your intentions once or twice, if you continue to exchange conversations, your intentions will be revealed.
However, while talking with Eumidius, Lee Han did not reveal a single hint of conceit or arrogance.
Even if Eumidihus spoke a simple word, he listened intently in a very polite manner.
At this point, Eumidhus was seriously troubled.
Why are the laws of the world like this?
‘Why is Gonadaltes or Bagleg such a disciple?’
Of course, Eumidhus also knew that a righteous person was not necessarily rewarded as he was older… But still,
writers like Gonadaltes and Baegreg don’t need to be rewarded.
This was really too much.
‘I don’t know what kind of look it is.’
When Eumidhus looked at Lee Han with complex and subtle eyes, Lee Han became even more nervous.
Hearing that he was Professor Voladi’s teacher, Lee Han was acting more thoroughly than usual so as not to get blamed.
‘What are you thinking?’
Eumidhus just looked at Lee Han as if he felt sorry for him.
Then the old wizard clicked his tongue a few times and opened his mouth.
“Look at that river.”
There were several rivers that were quite thick in the mountains. Eumidhus pointed to the river with his staff.
“If you’ve heard my rumors, you’d know, but I’m pretty good with the water element.”
Lee Han nodded.
In fact, the expression ‘quite capable’ was a very humble expression. If he was really good enough, his fame wouldn’t have spread widely throughout the empire.
“Could you guess why I am researching elemental water magic?”
“Is it related to aptitude?”
“That must be one of the answers.”
Eumidhus swung his staff.
Boom!!
Then, with a huge roar, the water in the river turned into steam and exploded. A white pillar rose up and turned into a cumulus cloud that spread around.
The birds in the mountains were startled and flew in all directions. But Eumidhus said without blinking an eye.
“But the answer is that water elemental magic is the most suitable for battle.”
“……”
The expression of the young disciple in front of him did not change. The sculpted face silently stared at the river.
Seeing that, Eumidhus nodded in satisfaction.
‘You’re enterprising.’
A person who froze at the great magic he could not understand could not succeed as a wizard.
A good wizard had to see the great magic and try to jump over it with a burning desire.
‘As expected of Professor Voladi, he’s suddenly acting crazy like his teacher.’
Lee Han thought to himself.
Why did you do such a bloody thing just to let me know that water magic is combative…
The explosion didn’t happen just because the water evaporated. Explosion occurred as the volume rapidly expanded when it evaporated rapidly.
Eumidihus used the principle to realize the steam explosion as magic.
It was surprising and amazing, but there is no need to explode the water right away without saying a word to the student…
‘Isn’t it?’
But Lee Han didn’t say anything.
Because he was afraid of Eumidhus.
Eumidhus, misunderstanding the silent disciple’s attitude, asked in a slightly cheerful voice.
“Can you guess the magic I just showed you?”
“Didn’t you create an impact by rapidly evaporating the water?”
“!”
Eumidhus was truly astonished.
Aside from simply having a lot of mana, handling mana in detail, and having strong control…
‘Sharp!’
A good wizard had to be able to think deeply and abundantly.
Wizards learning magic used to complain like this.
-I only study one magic, so why do I have so many necessary abilities?
But I couldn’t help it. because it was real
The ability to think deeply and richly was a necessary skill for wizards who had to bring their own images into reality.
And the boy in front of him already had it.
To think that other wizards already possessed what other wizards could only have after years of roaming around the empire and sharpening their powers of observation…
Umidhihus admired the boy’s talent and really wanted to kill Voladi Bagrek.
‘A guy who didn’t do anything…’
“You got it right. You are sharp.”
“thank you.”
Lee Han could not guess at all the thoughts that were rapidly progressing in the old wizard’s head.
“Magicians who don’t know much about water magic or who are clumsy think that calling water, combining it, and changing its shape around is the end. But that’s just the beginning. The world of water… much wider and deeper.”
Eumidhus clenched his fists.
Then, the water level of the river drastically decreased and the surrounding land began to lose its vitality.
‘Moisture absorption!’
It was definitely surprising.
When it comes to water magic, I only thought of shape transformation or manipulation, perhaps because I was tormented by Professor Voladi, but I
was able to expand the area as much as I wanted, such as evaporation and absorption.
‘I thought water magic was a bit subtle for combat, but I was wrong.’
“You have already mastered basic shapeshifting and manipulation. yes?”
“Not quite like that.”
Lee Han said it with sincerity, but Eumidhus thought it was just humility and let it go in one ear.
“That’s probably why you’re practicing rotation properties. yes?”
“no. It was an accident.”
“It’s a natural process, and it’s a path that a wizard should take, but…”
‘Are you deaf?’
Lee Han thought to himself.
He didn’t know that if Eumidhus blinked an eye, he would dry up Lee Han’s blood.
“At the same time, too much preoccupation with manipulation can also narrow your field of vision. I called you this today to show you that there are other domains that deal with the water element.”
Eumidhus spoke like a benevolent old woman. Of course, because of what he had just done, Lee Han was not fooled by the atmosphere.
“Now, then try it.”
“…yes?”
What?
