Chapter 504
‘Wait.’
Lee Han shuddered at the sudden ominous thought.
no way?
“Is this an event for seniors?”
It’s an event for students learning transformation magic, but if none of Lee Han’s friends know…
…isn’t it an event for seniors only?
Professor Voladi briefly put on an expression that he hadn’t thought about Lee Han’s question.
“I guess so.”
“I think you should have checked that out first… Did the professor readily accept it?”
The professor nodded slightly.
‘I’m sure he wasn’t threatening with a sword?’
Lee Han was slightly suspicious.
Professor Rji was a bit on the weaker side of the professors.
It was no wonder that when Professor Voladi pointed a sword at him and threatened him, he said, ‘Let’s participate!’
“professor. This is my thought now, but Professor Ledge readily accepted it, but wouldn’t the seniors be offended?”
The students of Einrogard were secretly exclusive.
Didn’t the White Tiger Tower students get very angry when Lee Han broke into the dormitory?
Just as the students show useless pride for each tower they belong to, the school probably does too.
And even within the school.
‘I think I’ll be offended if my first year juniors keep snooping on me.’
An angular stone was not the right one for nothing.
Unless it was a special school without manpower like healing magic or black magic, there was no way that juniors would like it.
“Are you worried about that? Okay.”
“ah. Did the seniors say it was okay?”
“I meant that if there were any students who were offended, I would discipline them.”
“……”
Lee Han looked at the sword Professor Voladi was wearing.
‘Aren’t you supposed to be admonishing while stabbing with a sword?’
“…I’ll just work hard and catch the eyes of the seniors.”
Professor Voladi patted Lee Han on the shoulder with admiration.
The basilisk made a noise as if it were displeased.
* * *
Ouroboros, a snake biting its own tail, was a beloved entity in alchemy and transmutation magic.
As they symbolize the eternal cycle, the wizards of the two schools are bound to love each other.
Therefore, the event of transformation mages was also named < Ouroboros Day >.
Cheer up!
A whip held by one student turned into a snake and wrapped around the wrist of another student.
Even though the snake wrapped itself around her wrist, the victim did not panic at all. As he calmly cast the spell, the snake’s teeth turned into cotton.
bang!
A student whose wrists were tied hit the floor with a cane, and the floor suddenly rocked and turned into a swamp.
The unbalanced student missed the snake whip and stumbled. He quickly tried to transform the swamp into hard soil, but the spell failed and turned into honey.
“lost.”
“It was a good fight.”
Standing up holding a friend’s hand, the student looked around at the other transformation wizards gathered in the auditorium.
< Ouroboros Day > sounded grandiose, but in fact the rules were simple.
It was a day to show each one’s achievements using only transformation magic. Such events were common in other schools as well.
Magic duels using only transmutation spells New transmutation magic research announcements Rare monsters in the empire have unusual transmutation abilities and more.
“Everyone stop playing and come here. We have to stop outsiders from making accidents.”
“I don’t like dealing with outsiders, so can’t I order a Death Knight…?”
“no. Be patient.”
Einrogard’s Transformation Magic School students frowned at the outsiders actively roaming around the auditorium.
It was natural to invite outside wizards to such an event, and it was also natural to treat them as hosts.
But the students didn’t want to do that obvious thing too much.
It wasn’t because the outside mages were unpleasant or rude.
It wasn’t even because there was a mountain of assignments to do.
I just…
I really just didn’t want to do it.
“Wouldn’t a person who loses at rock-paper-scissors do it?”
“hello!! Ein Rogard students!!”
“Eww.”
pop!
A transformation wizard from the outside approached showing her species transformation magic.
The specialty that transformation wizards often show is magic that changes their race.
There was nothing special about the magic itself, but there was nothing like it for simple greetings or for starting a conversation.
The transformation wizard was so excited that he transformed from an elf to a human, from a human to a dog beast, and from a dog beast to an orc.
Then he looked at the students with expectant eyes. As if the students were responding, they knew how to show something.
“……”
“……”
However, the reaction of the students was different from what was expected.
Everyone hesitated and averted their gaze.
“???”
“……”
“……”
“Did I do something wrong?”
“Oh no!”
“Ban… Nice to meet you! nice to meet you!”
“Ah yes.”
The transformation wizard withdrew with an embarrassed expression.
The students looked at each other with puzzled faces.
“You should have answered…! You were close!”
“No, I was looking at you. You should have answered!”
Although there were exceptions, basically mages who majored in conversion magic had a lot of cheerful and sociable personalities.
Maybe it had something to do with the characteristics of transformation magic.
However, the students majoring in transformation magic at Ein Lorgard were a bit unusual.
They were very…
introverted.
“Everyone, stop. ah. I should have learned black magic…”
“I’m feeling a bit sick to my stomach. Give me one more potion.”
“no. If you drink too much confidence potion, you will be completely ruined.”
Transformation magic students just prayed that the event would end quickly and outsiders would leave so that they could talk about magic among themselves.
“Untitled Professor!”
“what? Untitled professor?”
The students turned their heads.
A really crazy professor was bringing in a freshman.
“What are you thinking?”
“I heard that you have a disciple…”
“Isn’t it following and monitoring you so that you can’t escape?”
“I can’t… I can.”
But that didn’t solve all the questions.
Why the hell did you bring a first-year student to an event like this?
No matter how you look at it, it seemed like pointless bullying.
“Why did Professor Rigi allow it?”
“I heard that you are very talented. I heard from a friend of the school of black magic, but he’s from the Wardanaz family.”
“You don’t believe in the rumors about the Wardanaj family, do you? The Wardanaj family is just an ordinary great aristocratic family. It’s not a family that teaches secret arts to some five-year-old kid.”
“It’s not normal…”
While the students muttered in the corner, Lee Han walked in with Professor Boladi.
Transformation wizards from the outside were showing off things (one wizard was receiving applause for transforming his arm into a swarm of bats), Professor Lizzie was in the middle taking questions, and the seniors were… ‘Can’t you see?
‘
Lee Han, who was puzzled when his seniors were nowhere to be seen, realized before long.
“professor. Uh… shouldn’t you break the principal’s restraint during the event?”
I knew that Headmaster Skeleton put a curse on his seniors to hinder perception, but he would release it sometimes when necessary.
And now was when it was needed.
If a first-year student participates in an event like this and can’t even talk to the seniors…
“Why?”
“……”
“Ah. Lee Han-kun.”
Professor Leji looked at Lee Han and gestured. Then he said little.
“I’m sorry. I couldn’t refuse the request.”
“You can.”
Lee Han understood.
Even if Professor Voladi hadn’t threatened with a sword, he would have threatened with a sword.
“I am really sorry.”
“…No, I’m really fine.”
Lee Han was rather embarrassed when Professor Leji apologized so much.
The professor who brought you is bad, isn’t the professor who allowed you to be bad?
“But since all the wizards attending this event are outstanding transformation wizards, we will learn in many ways…”
“Let’s go.”
While they were talking, Professor Voladi, who had disappeared somewhere, suddenly returned.
“Where are you talking?”
“I asked permission.”
Professor Voladi pointed back with his chin.
The transformation wizards who were fighting on the simple arena were whispering while watching this.
-1st grade… Aren’t you a student?
– You must have seen it wrong.
-Are you asking me to compete with a 1st year student? Isn’t that a bit dangerous?
‘This is a shame.’
Lee Han felt embarrassed when outside wizards looked at him with worried and bewildered eyes.
Professor Bollardy went to see him and said, ‘Please fight against my student’ ‘Please fight against my student’ ‘Please fight against my disciple’, holding onto him and harassing him until he answered, but when he accepted, he must have been embarrassed because he was too young. did.
The dwarf wizard, who looked to be in his forties, looked at Lee Han and asked with a shy face.
“Aren’t you a first-year student? What am I supposed to do with Einrogard’s teachings, but I think it’s a bit early for a confrontation like this?
“It’s okay.”
Before Lee Han could answer, Professor Boladi answered.
The dwarven mage whispered again as Professor Voladi turned and walked to the stands.
“Is there any cooperation with the professor… no. what do i say I want you to forget.”
Looking at the dwarf wizard who swallowed it again because it seemed too rude, Lee Han bit his lips bitterly.
The conversion wizards here were all good people.
So it was more painful.
* * *
“…The rules are as follows. let’s begin.”
‘I’ll be thrilled.’
Faced with the opponent, Lee Han’s head was spinning fast.
I’ve done magic duels a few times, but today’s place was a bit unusual.
A place where only transformation magic can be used.
The problem was that Lee Han’s transformation magic was not very broad.
Basically, it’s about color rock-sand in a simple conversion to steel.
Chasing a seasoned transformation mage with this was akin to ramming a skeleton headmaster with a fork.
Probably, it was clear that Professor Voladi wanted Lee Han to be subjected to as many different things as possible.
You learn more from defeat than from victory.
What kind of conversion magic should you learn as many times as possible…
Chew!
“!”
The Dwarf Wizard suddenly gained wings and soared through the air.
At the same time, the cloak suddenly unfolded like a tent, blocking the view. Lee Han intuitively sensed that the dwarf wizard was trying to transform into another monster.
‘If I leave it alone, it will end right away!’
Lee Han swung his cane with the intention of disposing of the enemy’s cloak first.
Then, a sigh erupted from among the conversion wizards next to them.
“ah!”
“I can’t do that!”
“Uh huh…!”
“Oh my gosh!”
Since the dwarf wizard had already cast transformation magic on the cloak first, it was not a good choice for Lee Han to cast transformation magic on the cloak.
Interfering with the opponent’s magic is many times more difficult.
In such an urgent situation…
Pak!
“!?”
The cloak turned into a steel hook and flew towards the dwarven wizard.
The dwarf wizard, who was about to transform into a hippogriff, was startled by the steel hook holding his ankle, and his magic was shaken. It ended up with an unusual appearance with only the arms and legs turned into hippogriffs.
“wow! To be so successful with that!”
“great! It’s great!”
‘…it’s kind of annoying?’
Lee Han began to annoy the conversion wizards who were admiring them in the audience.
At first, I was a little moved by the way he cared about Lee Han, but it was quite annoying when he reacted so strongly to each and every magic.
The dwarf mage quickly waved his staff to free the steel hook.
Surprisingly, however, the steel hook did not loosen. Magic bounced out like ore with terribly stagnant mana.
The dwarf wizard panicked and failed to land in a situation that even the experienced transformation wizard had never experienced.
Originally, it would have been enough to subdue Lee Han by casting magic even while tied to the steel hook, but the Dwarf Wizard conceded defeat neatly.
It would have been the same as losing if he had revealed his gaps like this in a duel.
“I lost! great! How did you convert this? Is it Einrogard’s secret technique?”
While Lee Han was thinking about how to explain so that his opponent would be less disappointed, Professor Voladi hid his disappointment and started talking to other conversion wizards.
