Magic Tower-2
While Arya was reading the table of contents titled ‘Human Body and s*x,’ Leonardo was wandering around the classroom in the tower.
[But there are too many classrooms? Can you find it?]
＜It’s over there.＞
Leo pointed to the little dot with his finger. It was too far away, so the sage barely had to focus his eyes to see it.
[…were you a nomadic people?]
＜You have already seen my hometown.＞
[No, can you see that?]
＜If you try, you will see everything.＞
Recalling the old-fashioned theory of grit, Leo walked to a trembling graduate student at the entrance of the classroom.
“…where are you…? Obviously here…”
“Mr. Ameri, you dropped this.”
Leo held out the wallet he had picked up to her, who was bewildered as she turned over her pockets.
“ah…! Here you go…! Thank you…!”
She opened the door to the classroom, almost crying, taking her wallet.
“Thank you… there… there are all the food stamps I bought with food expenses… If I hadn’t… I almost would have eaten only bean sprouts this month…”
From the word ‘this month as well’, I could tell indirectly that I went through that hardship last month.
Unfortunately, Leonardo did not even express his sympathy.
“…Oh, by any chance… Leonardo Islands… would you like to take a lecture…?”
“Yes? Is that okay?”
“Yeah…! Occasionally, people who come on field trips… listen to lectures…”
From Leonardo’s point of view, there was no reason to refuse. You should be able to know the level of education in the mato from this opportunity, so it should have been welcomed.
“Then I won’t specify.”
[Where can I see what the juniors are good at?]
When the door to the classroom was opened, students were seated in a row in the shape of a large auditorium. At the center of it was a professor standing at the school table.
A fat physique, an oily mustache and hair, unfortunately, did not make a very good impression.
“…Oh, Leonardo-kun. I think it would be better not to watch this lecture…”
“Yes? why?”
Leonardo couldn’t help but question her advice. Ameri replied with a rare sigh, perhaps because of the complexity of the explanation.
“Then just listen for ten minutes. Don’t get me wrong…”
In order to answer the question of such a strange request, Leo and the wise man silently listened to the lecture.
And after about seven minutes, Leo and the sage were forced to agree again.
[Is this a lecture?]
“Is this a lecture?”
I was so shocked that it was ridiculous.
Of course, it must be taken into account that he would not be able to compare with a sage, but even considering that, it was a very pathetic lecture.
[This is not a lecture, but just infusion brainwashing.]
The lectures that have come out so far have only been about memorizing the high-ranking magic circles, and their usage and significance.
It was an injection-type lecture that had no value other than the many magic circles taught in a short time.
Not a sage, not even Rios gave such a worthless lecture.
Interestingly, so did the students.
It only evaluated who said the shape and definition of the magic circle faster and more accurately, and there was no significance or application for it.
It would have been better to do a speed quiz instead.
“Ha… I see why you shouldn’t listen. hurry…”
“…here… Leonardo-kun…?”
In a cold sweat, Ameri looked at Leo with a bewildered look. Soon, Leo looked around.
Not only Ameri, but the student was looking towards Leo.
Even the professor who teaches.
[…probably the professor was the first to see it? So we all looked at you.]
It looked like he was about to let out a sigh.
I regretted not hearing Ameri’s advice quickly enough to want to go back.
“There, who is it? Come down.”
With an arrogant and coercive tone, Leo, who did not want to raise a job, walked to the table without saying a word.
While walking like that, the eyes of the students writhing in their bodies only made Leo’s steps heavy.
“…I gave a rating on my lecture earlier, can you say it again?”
“That’s what…”
Suddenly he struck the desk with a heavy hand.
“Isn’t that what it is? Say the same thing.”
Now, the remaining education is gone. It was an order for reprimand without a doubt.
“… I said, ‘Is this a lecture?’ and ‘I can see why you shouldn’t.’ We apologize for causing trouble.”
[Hey, just apologize?! Do you have no pride?]
He wanted to listen to the wise man, but now he had to bow his head and endure. Even if there was a problem with the intermediate magic permit, that would be a bigger loss.
“no. You might be right. So let me be willing to give you a chance.”
The hypocritical mercy that was clumsy and frankly, if it weren’t for people, I wanted to vomit on my face.
“I’m not happy with my lecture, so let me teach you. Doesn’t that mean that you can give a better lecture than a professor who graduated from a formal university?”
It was meant to publicly disgrace anyone who saw it. His intention to inflict disgrace on the students of Matop was clearly revealed.
“…Then let me sit down. I will keep you looking forward to it.”
Some students ridiculed them, while others sighed slightly at the professor’s childish punishment.
However
＜…I can’t.＞
[Okay. Turn the classroom upside down.]
The disciple of the wise man did not show any signs of anxiety at all. It was the same with the sage who was with him.
thump
Leonardo wrote about three types of magic circles on the blackboard without saying a word.
“I think you all know these magics. It’s the basic magic of Circle 1.”
As they said, they were all magic that Leonardo had learned for the first time.
[Fireball]
[Lightning]
[Magic Missile]
“Are you trying to teach me such a basic thing? Isn’t it supposed to be an elementary school academy?”
The professor threw a mockery of whether he had roughly grasped Leonardo’s circle.
“…Then let me ask you one thing about this basic thing.”
Leonardo looked at the students around him with a dry voice, perhaps feeling that such a mockery was meaningless.
“What do these magics have in common and what are the differences?”
“It’s that simple…”
“By the way, this is not a question about circles and elements. I’m asking about something more primitive than that, so please think carefully before answering.”
So no one was willing to answer.
It wasn’t to interrupt Leo’s lecture, but because there seemed to be no commonalities or differences other than that.
“There doesn’t seem to be an answer, so I’ll let you know.”
Leonardo drew dotted lines one after another on the magic circle. Fireball draws a vertical dotted line, Lightning draws a horizontal dotted line, and Magic Missile draws a 180-degree inverted magic circle on the side.
“The one thing these magic circles have in common is that they are all symmetrical. And the difference is that the symmetry is divided into top-down, left-right and point symmetry.”
Everyone started to respond little by little. The fat professor noticed that it faded again, but some students quietly nodded their heads.
“These magic circles are just examples, in fact, all magic circles have symmetry. It’s just that the higher the level of magic, the more complex it gets and the harder it is to understand.”
Again the question continued.
“Then why do we put symmetry into the magic circle?”
No one answered that question either. I knew it, but it was hard to hide my sadness in the dark educational scene.
“The reason is simple. Because the basis of the balance of the universe is symmetry.”
It was difficult to understand, but to give a simple example, Leo picked up the marble on the table and rotated it.
“No matter how many times you turn this marble, it stays the same shape. Something that measures the same even if it changes, is a simple example of symmetry.”
Now some of the students sneakily pulled out their writing instruments. The sense of learning professionals who have been in the field of education for a long time stimulated the instinct to leave this lecture as a letter.
“This is why the magic circle is symmetrical. The materials that make up the universe: fire, water, wind… I can say that symmetry is the most efficient form of extracting those elements with mana.”
Since the universe is symmetrical, the magic circle is also symmetrical.
It was a logic and lecture that could be understood immediately if there were the basics of common sense and magic.
At that moment, a student carefully raised his hand.
“Yes, ask a question.”
“…so… what’s the reason for the difference in the type of symmetry?”
Looking into her eyes, she cringed. The reason could be seen from the professor’s stinging gaze.
“It is also simple. To orchestrate human use of magic for its intended purpose.”
Controlling the shape of symmetry was a kind of processing operation. Just as the flame used for cooking and the fire used to melt iron are different in fire, there are processing methods in magic.
“So if you understand the meaning of the magic circle, this is also possible.”
Leo shaped the magic circle over his hands. It was in the shape of a fireball, but it was 180 degrees symmetrical based on a point that was not vertically symmetrical.
Magic was manifested, and flames like arrows were fired.
“…This…”
“This is a fusion of fireball and magic missile, which is the basic way to combine magic. With understanding and application, you can develop a myriad of magic.”
Leo said as he touched the magic circles drawn on the blackboard.
“Of course, these magic circles are the basis and standard. It allows you to use magic in the fastest and most efficient way.”
And erased the magic circle with an eraser.
“But in order to live as a wizard and not a magic user, you have to realize more than that. It is the essence of scholars and wizards to remember the basics, but to pursue more.”
The professor was at a loss for words, and the students were busy taking notes.
Leo responded briefly to the very satisfactory scenery.
“thank you.”
After that, Leo stopped talking.
It meant the lecture was over.
Clap clap clap clap!!
Weak clap of hands led to thunderous applause.
All the students cheered Leonardo’s lecture without any objection.
＜But what now…＞
[why? That’s good enough. It’s not as good as me, but it’s several times better than that deep-skinned pig.]
＜By the way… As long as that pig is a professor, you can dispute my Intermediate Magic License.＞
Professor Hagman Fergnon
Neither the subject of summary judgment nor the Warlock, but Leonardo personally had no good feelings for him.
As we saw before, he was arrogant and arrogant at the subject of being an incompetent professor.
[Ha… Would you be tempted to raise an objection?]
＜It’s kind of like a double line, so don’t say more than that.＞
Prof. Hagman ran to Leonardo, perhaps even responding to the double line right away.
“you…! What is your student number and name!?”
It was clear that he did not intend to praise only with his voice.
“That’s… I… my name is Leonardo. I am not a student, so I do not have a student number.”
At those words, all the students looked at Leo with a questionable expression.
“I wonder if you… did you come to get a magic permit?”
“…That’s right.”
Then a rotten smile appeared on the heavy professor’s face. It seemed like the line was hooked up properly.
“Uh… Then…”
mate, mate, mate
The applause of a short and uniform beat was as if the second hand of a watch was in sync with the moving beat.
“It was a great lecture. Leonardo-kun.”
Walking in was a man in black. Like Leo, the man with black hair and red eyes, compared to him, was very pale, so he did not give the impression of resemblance.
[…she…maybe…]
it was the hope
“Ma… Lord Matthew…!!”
It was Bernan Verdein, the master of the black magic tower.
“It’s overrated. There are still many shortcomings.”
“Still, you deserve this.”
The black magician held out a sheet of paper with an expressionless face.
《Intermediate Magic Permit》
[Subject: Leonardo]
A special seal was engraved next to it, which was proof of the matap master’s permission.
“…are you giving it to me right away… like this?”
“Then why not procrastinate? I omit unnecessary procedures. It’s a waste of time.”
[He still speaks. It’s not all badass.]
Leonardo agreed with that idea. Receiving the permit he offered, Leo gratefully accepted the permit.
“So, if there is a chance, at the Graduate School of Black Tower…”
“I hate that.”
[No. It’s the devil.]
This idea was mutually agreed upon.
