Episode 649
“Whoa… Da… Na… Zu… Han… Te… Magic… Power… Recovery… Of… B… .. Ro… Chi… is… uh… tremble… how…”
“Absolutely… useless… useless… never… It seems… I think… Ah… Yo…”
In Lee Han’s experience, it was about 5 seconds.
During that 5-second period, I could hear the people around me slowly. Lee Han realized that the time in the area around the clock had sped up nearly twice as fast.
‘It’s a time magic artifact!’
Along with space magic, time magic was one of the most difficult magics in imperial magic.
The talent and effort required to learn, the magic power and reagents consumed during casting, the dangers that inevitably follow even if all such conditions are met, and so on.
These numerous shortcomings prevented space-time magic from being created as a separate school.
At least, wizards of wisdom magic gathered to form a school, but space-time magic did not even challenge unless it was a very small number of geniuses who risked their lives.
‘Who made this? No, how the hell did Waldororn know about this?’
Five seconds passed as I quickly passed my thoughts.
At that moment, Lee Han received a strong blow. It was as if every muscle in my body was screaming.
“Kuk!”
“What is the letter knife for magical recovery?”
“I don’t think anything with magic recovery is useless even if I die.”
The conversation between Alcicle and Yoner came through normally. Lee Han knelt down in agony.
thud!
“Everyone get out of the way!”
Alcicle jumped up in fright and swung his staff. Like an experienced senior wizard, he realized what had happened.
Something must have touched the wrong artifact!
“Don’t come closer! It could be poison or a curse!”
“Ha, but… Poisons and curses won’t work on Lee Han, right?”
“……”
Alcicle swung his cane and admired it even while hitting the barrier.
Certainly, like a close friend, he made a sharp point.
“This can be happen. But there are always exceptions! And Wardanaz has too many mad mage artifacts!”
“Are you a mad wizard?”
“Gonadaltes-nim! I knew someday Gonadaltes-nim would have an accident!”
Living with danger was a mage, and Alcicle was also a mage who took risks to achieve results, but the skeleton headmaster was a bit harsh even for such a rcicle.
He thought that suspicious and heinous artifacts such as Lee Han’s Behemox necklace and Manma’s bracelet might one day stab their owners.
“That bracelet is suspicious. What an evil spirit it was!”
“Hour… time magic.”
“What, Wodanaz? what??”
“That pocket watch… it’s enchanted with time… it just sped up…”
“!!!”
Alcicle understood Lee Han’s meaning right away.
Time magic!
Its rarity was amazing, and the enchanted artifact was amazing, but that wasn’t the point right now.
Just as powerful strengthening magic brings various side effects, so did time magic.
The world around the caster was isolated from the outside world and the time axis was warped, but when the magic ended, of course there was no choice but to rebound.
Even if it was magic for a very short time, if you weren’t prepared in advance, your body could be torn apart.
“Bring the recovery potion!”
“I hear the bracelet is suspicious!”
Gainando shouted in anger.
His eyes were already half quack-looking.
I’ve already been wrong once, but if I’m wrong twice, I might kill Lee Han.
“I could be wrong! Don’t you come quickly?!”
“Here you go!”
“Even magic recovery potion! Is this a demon… or a golem? Call the golem and tell him to bring all the healing potions in the mansion!”
“A magic recovery potion?!”
“Don’t say anything you don’t know! Kids who don’t even know what time magic is!”
Alcicle shouted as he laid Lee Han down.
The rebound of the time magic did not end with the burden on the body as the slower times returned.
As the isolated world collides with the outside world, the magical power inside the wizard runs out of control.
Alcicle knew very well that there was nothing more dangerous than a wizard not being able to control his magic.
‘If you’re lucky, your magic power will run out, if you’re unlucky, it’ll explode!’
Alcicle, who was well aware of Lee Han’s mana, gripped the staff tightly while breaking out in a cold sweat.
“Wardanaz. are you listening From now on, your mana will somehow…”
“Fu. It’s been fine. thank you.”
“……”
“……”
When Lee Han, who had been lying down, stood up, Alcicle felt the urge to grab the genius by the collar.
* * *
Still, as much as you don’t know, Alcicle went into a precise check.
“Is there really nothing wrong with you?”
“A bit of muscle pain…”
Alcicle closed his eyes tightly.
There are many eyes to see here. Among the imperial mages, he couldn’t be called < The Jealous Alcicle > or the < Chaser Alcicle >.
“That kind of thing isn’t ideal…”
“Why isn’t that ideal!”
Gainando shouted in a fit of rage.
I doubted the bracelet earlier, and I doubted whether I could trust this magician’s ability.
“Lee Han. didn’t you hear that? Didn’t Pengerin say the bracelet was suspicious? But he changed his words right away!”
Alcicle called a snowman and made him attack Gainando. Gainando screamed and was kicked out of the mansion.
The wizard, the penguin beast, barely regaining his composure, took a deep breath and said,
“Yeah… muscle pain is also an anomaly. It’s probably the rebound of the time magic.”
“aha. Like the magic that removes the process of protecting the body during strengthening magic gives pain?”
“yes. It’s a much higher magic, but the principle isn’t that different.”
“Still, the rebound is not as great as I thought. The time magic I read about in the book of magic seemed much more dangerous.”
“……”
Without a word, Alcicle got up, opened the mansion door, and went outside.
Then, he fired snowballs at Gainando, who had killed the snowman.
The face of Alcicle, who had returned after venting his anger, was much calmer.
“It is true that it is far more dangerous. I think the reason why your rebound wasn’t great is because the first magic time was short and the intensity wasn’t strong. Second, because you have trained your body to the level of a decent knight. Thirdly, it is because you have a lot of magic power.”
“The time of the magic was short and the intensity was not strong, so at least it ended at this point.”
“… Hey, just forget about the first and second. The third one is the biggest in my opinion.”
“?!”
Annoyed when the junior kept talking nonsense, Alcicle spoke directly.
“ruler. look Here’s a snowflake. If you close the window and open it, the snowflakes are immediately blown away by the wind. But what about this big table? stay still You are this table. okay?”
“yes. But why are you angry…”
“I’m not angry!”
Yoner and Nilia whispered at Alcicle’s cry.
“I think it’s because of Gainan Island.”
“right? You must have hurt your pride by being wrong earlier.”
“……”
Alcicle changed the subject because talking about it would only hurt his face.
“Rather than that, you bought an artifact like this in town? Even at second-hand and cheap stores?”
“yes. I think that Baldororn knew about it and recommended it…”
Lee Han explained how Baldororn, who lived in a village near the school, recommended this watch.
Alcicle listened with interest.
“This can be happen.”
“Should I send you a letter and ask what you meant?”
“Wouldn’t that be of little use? Even if it were me, I wouldn’t answer. At best, I threw a lesson to my junior, but I didn’t solve it alone and asked right away. Rather, it would be reprehensible.”
‘Why do wizards do this?’
Lee Han thought so to himself, but he couldn’t deny that there was truth in Alcicle’s words.
I recommended it with my own meaning, but how lazy would I look if I asked instead of solving it myself?
“And I know what you meant. It’s an artifact with time magic, so you should study time magic.”
“Isn’t that overexaggeration? Time magic for a student who only finished first grade?”
“hmm. You’re right. Wodanaz. It’s as impossible as a first-year student implementing domain domination. yes?”
“…You’re not really mad, are you?”
“I’m not angry.”
Lee Han vowed to pay special attention to the sardines for dinner tonight.
“I wonder who created this artifact more than that. You said it was triggered when you touched the escapement, right? He must be a wizard with a very eccentric personality.”
Usually Artifacts made it obvious that ‘I am an Artifact’.
The caster could be seriously injured if he touches it unknowingly and activates the magic incorrectly.
However, this pocket watch was quite eccentric and had malicious intentions.
On the surface, it’s an ordinary object with no magic, but if you dig deeper, a secret is revealed.
And the secret was magic that could inflict great damage on the caster!
In the world, these artifacts are usually referred to as cursed artifacts.
‘It’s definitely true.’
Lee Han agreed with Alcicle’s words.
A trap-type artifact like that.
“Isn’t that what the principal made? It was an antique store near the school, and I don’t think there are many people who can deal with something like this.”
“I don’t want to blame Gonadaltes for all the bad luck, but honestly, it’s true that I have doubts. There are only a few people in Einrogard who can use time magic. Gonadaltes-sama and Professor Garcia…”
“Ah. I think the professor has heard of it.”
Lee Han nodded.
I had heard before that Professor Garcia’s original field was the study of space-time magic.
He wasn’t a monster who had taken Einrogard’s former school for nothing.
‘Maybe the professor was a bit out of his mind when he was young. How can a man attend an entire school?’
Lee Han was taken by force, but wasn’t Professor Garcia chosen arbitrarily?
No matter how you think about it, it was something a madman would do.
“Bagleg too.”
“Uh, Professor Bagreg, do you know how to use time magic?”
“But it won’t be Bagleg. It’s just that he’s abbreviated for combat use.”
“no. It may have been made by Professor Bagreck and placed outside. Just in case one day I discover this.”
“…Did Bagreg do anything to you?”
Alsicle was very embarrassed to see Lee Han more suspicious of Professor Voladi than the skeleton principal.
Isn’t that even the level of a crazy conspiracy theory?
“for a moment. It looks like it’s open.”
The pocket watch was in the form of a glass covering the needles without a lid, but now I see that the back is open.
Originally, the back side was completely filled, so it must have been opened when magic was cast. Lee Han carefully opened the back.
Congratulations, you stupid and foolish junior. If you are reading this, you must have experienced great magic.
If you learn the magic imprinted on this watch, come find me. Then I will tell you the vision as it should be! -Isn’t
the great senior
‘Gonadaltes-sama?’
Alcicle tilted his head.
From the looks of it, he looked like an Einrogard student. In this way, the headmaster of the skull has moved away from the line of suspicion.
Or did the Headmaster Skeleton pretend to be Ein Rogarde’s senior?
“hmm. Isn’t that Professor Bagleg?”
“…Wardanaz. I’m not friendly with Bagreg, but I can swear he’s not the kind of person to do this.”
