Academy’s Genius Tamer Episode 50
“I’m glad things went smoothly.”
Professor Grint looked out the window and folded his arms.
The Ardel Academy, which had been quiet for a while, was in an uproar when Usher of the Theology Department disappeared.
Not only theology department, but also the magic department had an impact.
Rumors circulated among the students that this may also be the work of a warlock.
In the end, it was the right thing to say.
“They are waking up. Things that are not even parasites.”
squeaky.
I vividly remember the war decades ago. How many innocent people were killed by the greed of the warlocks.
After that, I thought it had calmed down a bit, but slowly started to crawl out.
Professor Grint clenched his teeth and sighed.
The only hopeful thing is that this task was solved with magic and the power of sophomores.
Precious talents who will add strength to the war to come.
Lee Han and Han Shiha.
Professor Grint smirked and muttered lowly.
“I don’t fall for things like this.”
Han Shiha.
He was also a talent in the Department of Magic that Professor Grint was keeping an eye on the most.
He definitely has more talent than anyone else.
Until last year, it was so small that it was barely visible.
It was a talent that bloomed late, but Han Shi-ha was growing so quickly.
Professor Grint thought he was going to have a big accident during this midterm evaluation.
“Isn’t it time to show the world your talents?”
When I draw the image of a disciple who will fly brilliantly, a smile comes to my lips.
Professor Grint asked assistant professor Selen.
“Is the midterm evaluation guide over?”
“Yes, it is. professor.”
“Isn’t it a little special this time?”
“sure. It must have been on fire by now.”
tuk tuk.
Professor Grint smiled contentedly as he swiped down the printed notice of the midterm evaluation.

same time.
“what?”
A notice for the midterm evaluation hung in the hallway of Ardel Academy.
The students’ eyes widened when they saw it.
“to… to? What is that?”
“Nonsense. crazy.”
“hey. really?”
The mid-term evaluation rewards offered by this year’s Magic Department faculty were as follows.
The Wizard Society, which boasts the highest authority for wizards.
An opportunity to be invited to a field trip organized by the society every year.
A prestigious event that is difficult to get to even if you receive a recommendation from professors.
In addition to practical knowledge of magic, you can also take classes from so-called first-team professors.
It is an event that gives you a huge bonus even when you join the horse tower later.
To such an event, to invite the top 3 students by grade level?
“I am going to study.”
Ardel Academy’s magic and students’ eyes began to burn.
* * *
Solia stared at Lee Han without saying a word, blinking her mysterious golden eyes.
He was biting his lower lip with his mouth shut, which meant he had something to say.
Lee Han avoided her gaze and looked into her eyes.
However, in the end, Solia’s question could not be avoided.
“Where did you go last week?”
It’s a rumor that has already spread throughout the school, so it can’t be deceived.
Lee Han answered Solia’s words with an awkward smile.
“Construction site.”
Solia’s eyes had been watching Lee Han’s words and actions from before.
It was her habit.
Unlike Adela, who grew up rough, Solia was born as the youngest daughter of the Arkenent family and grew up receiving all kinds of love.
However, the more people had, the more people wanted it.
In the end, seeing the family collapse like that, Solia couldn’t trust people.
It’s kind to everyone, but I don’t believe it.
Although Lee Han is a trustworthy person who crosses the border to some extent, it is not yet absolutely reliable.
‘You’re obviously cheating.’
Exactly, I didn’t mean to lie.
Is it to the extent of not wanting to tell you what you know?
Solia, who sensed the discomfort, asked in a calm voice.
“Did you find Usher there? If you could feel the power of black magic, you could have told me in advance… .”
“Oh sorry.”
“Rescuing Usher… Is it one hour by any chance?”
Unexpected boulder.
Ian sighed and turned his head.
Solia had a very casual face and was smiling brightly.
“I’m not going to lie that you saved it by yourself. Because Lee Han can’t lie.”
“… right. He saved him.”
“Why did you hide it? You still don’t believe him?”
Lee Han barely opened his mouth that did not fall.
Solia was right.
I felt that he was changing little by little, and the appearance of Han Si-ha that Lee Han saw recently was 180 degrees different from what he had in mind.
It felt like a completely different person.
However, it was still just a guess. I didn’t want to say it out loud.
As always, those shady wizards infiltrate the group as if they were clean, stealing information, promoting safety, and beating treachery.
Like Professor Dibert Grunui did.
How will Han Si-ha change? .
Solia cut off Lee Han’s thoughts.
“if not… Do you think it will change again?”
“Human nature doesn’t change that easily.”
“Well. I don’t think he’s that bad.”
It’s a little stinky, but… .
It pisses people off, but… .
Still, he’s not a bad guy, Solia thought and laughed.
When you saved yourself from the devil tree.
Of course, the impression of that time was strongly etched in my mind, but it wasn’t just because of that.
Han Si-ha was gifted with talent from an early age.
However, that talent.
A talent that is weak, but explodes when it only touches the ignition point.
I didn’t even know myself, I was just afraid that it would be fermented again and again and thrown into the abyss of darkness.
In fact, Han Shiha, a first-year student, was just trying to throw herself into such a place.
Not a bad guy by nature.
At least, Solia thought so.
“I have a great partner, I have enough magical power to control a dragon, and I have good tactical skills. You can be the best tamer if you want, the kid.”
Solia said that and smiled involuntarily.
Lee Han smiled and looked back at Solia.
It had been a long time since she, who seemed uninterested in the affairs of the world, had her eyes twinkled like that.
So, I decided to agree with her words.
The guy who used to be lousy and annoying.
Because he showed a completely different side to the cursed doll.
The battle in which he put all his might and determined eyes to surely cut down the evil puppeteer.
I didn’t think it was all a lie.
Above all, it was a perfect match with the dragon, who instantly felt overwhelmed.
Lee Han, who was drawing that scene in his head, muttered a little.
“Maybe this midterm evaluation… There may be variables.”
* * *
“There is a fact that I have emphasized a lot during the last magic practice class. All deep magic comes from basic magic, and all basic magic comes from the 4 elements that are the basis of all things.”
“Nep!”
“Air, water, earth, fire. By conjuring these four things in your head, the first stage of the magic is realized.”
Air represents the east, water represents the west, the earth represents the north, and fire represents the south.
The association of elements is achieved through the process of drawing the direction and the element’s unique color on the magic circle.
Magic is a subject of intuition as well as a subject of theory.
Depending on how each element is placed and utilized, a completely different magic may come out, and sometimes it will fail.
– They say… It’s terribly difficult.
I don’t know what you’re talking about.
I grunted, trying to get Professor Grint’s explanation into my head.
Shrug.
Professor Grint drew the runes of the advanced spikes on the blackboard.
Although it looks complicated from the outside, when you take it apart one by one, the energy is concentrated in the central triangle.
Eventually, he noticed a triangle formed at the point where three lines meet.
“Air, earth and fire. You can see that the energy burns the fastest at this point where the three elements meet.”
Electricity has all the properties of air, earth, and fire.
Paat-.
As soon as Professor Grint finished speaking, a minute spark erupted.
This is where the oil was poured.
There’s no need to push in a strong torch. One embers to amplify this magical power is enough.
“How to implement a solid magic circle that will not collapse, and furthermore, how to implement advanced magic one step ahead with these basic magic. This is what I have been teaching you over the past two months.”
clap clap.
Applause erupted from behind.
Although he was Professor Grint, who was strict with his character, his lectures were worthwhile.
explanation is good It’s just a problem because the content is too high-level.
“I think I know… .”
I took a deep breath as I read the note a couple of times.
Best way in this case.
Once you don’t know, memorize whatever you want.
I drew the confusing parts with a highlighter pen.
“Come on then. We will also inform you about the mid-term evaluation. Have you all checked the instructions?”
“Yeah!”
Professor Grint smiled warmly and moved on to the midterm evaluation.
The meaning of this midterm evaluation will be better understood by students.
Being invited to the Wizard Society event.
Naturally, the eyes of the students were shining with enthusiasm.
It’s not just me.
As if not to miss a single thing, only the rattling sound of pencils echoed through the quiet classroom.
“The time limit is four hours in total. You will find yourself in the extreme situation of the four elements. If you use magic within it and survive each hour safely, you pass the test. We will evaluate your mental strength, stamina, and mana usage, and give the highest score to the student who survived the most effectively.”
Efficient use of mental, physical and magical powers.
A comprehensive evaluation will be conducted based on three items.
The infamous Professor Grint’s midterm evaluation.
I thoroughly remembered the test site as a text.
One student raised his hand and asked.
“Is less magical power advantageous?”
“As long as your physical and mental strength can withstand it.”
You can’t beat the magic power recklessly.
Should I ask Adela to do a few more practice rounds?
It’s probably the best way to get it, though.
If I say this, I think I’m crazy.
In any case, the habit of using magical powers ignorantly had to be abandoned.
“If the system detects that your health has been reduced below a certain level, you will be automatically kicked out of the exam room.”
It meant that it automatically bounced right before being stunned.
Professor Grint’s bloody evaluation method.
Students’ groanings poured out everywhere.
Did you say 3rd?
The goal is not as easy as you might think.
The top 3 I can think of right now are Adela, Solia, and Lee Han.
Is there any place for me to intervene?
I don’t know if I’ll be able to do it even if I bet one more bet with Crick.
However.
“I would have to.”
It is a test that must be taken at the top.
Since he chose the path of becoming stronger, the event of the Wizard Society was an opportunity that all Ardel Academy students longed for.
If given a chance, definitely grab it.
That was my rule.
With this in mind, I put the handwritten note in my bag.
“Then I hope everyone has a good outcome.”
Professor Grint left the classroom with a meaningful smile.
