Academy Genius Tamer Episode 59
“Where have you seen this face? Right?”
“Ugh.”
Adela opened her eyes in a round shape and burst out in exasperation.
On the train coming to Seinen, it was the man who showed him some magic, saying he was cheating.
I lowered my voice, excited.
No matter how strange the relationship, I did not know that we would meet here. So why were you so interested in the research group?
how do things get like this
“Was that person a professor?”
“I know yeah. It looked very ordinary.”
“Then do professors have professors written on their foreheads? Basically, everyone is normal. But where did you see it?”
Lee Han burst into laughter as if absurd and intervened between me and Adela.
“I saw you on the train. He taught me something other than herbal medicine.”
“Did you teach yourself? to him?”
“Somehow it happened… .”
That was then.
Professor Bruce Miller, who smashed the table a few times with his hand, started talking with a happy smile.
“Thank you for visiting my lecture. Are all the students here?”
“Nep!”
The low voice I saw on the train is the same.
Hearing that he is an absolute master of herbal medicine, he had a soft impression even though he was nervous. No, I didn’t know it was the unusual man I met on the train in the first place.
Again, his lectures were unique.
“Magic is not just magic that harms enemies. Rather, there is a magic that can save the opponent.”
An introduction that most wizards probably won’t be able to relate to.
“That is the essence of herbal medicine. Haven’t you all bought cheap potions from the shop at least once in preparation for battle?”
“It’s a cheap potion… .”
“How much is that?”
murmur murmur.
“All those poor potions started with herbalism. It’s to save people. There are certainly many potions that are not.”
Professor Bruce Miller continued his explanation calmly.
Principles of herbal medicine and formulas for formulation. How to apply it.
Originally, it was a vast amount of content that could not be explained over several weeks.
As the valuable lectures continued, the new wizards, who were unable to concentrate at first, buried their heads and started taking notes.
I realized intuitively that it was knowledge that everyone could use.
It’s rare for combat wizards to major in herbal medicine, but it’s not bad to know.
I also started writing.
‘You look different?’
He is also the best in herbal medicine.
I felt like he was talking nonsense on the train, but now I see that his magic is very closely related to modern medicine.
Rather than killing them with certainty, research to make sure they live.
It’s a mindset that seems to be centuries ahead.
Professor Bruce Miller was probably going through a tough fight.
The moment when I put my knowledge of herbal medicine into such a short-term property.
The flow of the class went in an entirely unexpected direction.
“I found a funny friend on the way here today, and he just happened to be here.”
“… !”
“He is a very talented friend, so I expect that he will probably be fluent in herbal medicine as well.”
Professor Bruce Miller’s gaze fell on me.
“The student in the back seat over there?”
me?
Are you suddenly calling me from here?
A student who can’t avoid the professor’s radar.
A student who is called as a demonstration if only he has taken a class.
A student receiving an offer to graduate school on a fictional day.
What sin did I commit in my previous life, so that even when I came to another country, I was still in the eyes of the professor?
He closed his eyes and jumped up from his seat.
“Is that what you mean?”
“It looks like my finger was right on the student.”
Professor Bruce Miller called me with a smirk.
Genius wizards from various schools were looking up at me all at once.
“… ah.”
“What is he?”
“Ardel?”
“If it was taken by that professor… Is it possible to become a herbalist genius?”
“What the hell are you doing?”
The professor pointed me out, so I couldn’t help but go out.
Through the burdensome gazes, I walked forward.
Professor Bruce greeted me with a happy smile.
“It doesn’t seem like a very difficult principle. I would like to take a look at the problem. As far as I can see, the student will be able to do enough.”
I am a human who has never studied herbal medicine, can I do it?
I swallowed my saliva and looked down at the cluttered table.
There were ice grass of Montene, a rope made of twisted arrowroot, and vines growing from red baobab trees.
“What kind of potions do you think you can make with these ingredients?”
The classroom was shaken by an unexpected problem.
“Is it difficult?”
“It’s the first thing I see. Ice grass only grows in the Montene region.”
“Isn’t that what you learned today?”
I closed my eyes tightly and pondered for a moment.
just over 1 minute.
That was enough.
“I think you know what it is.”
I reached out without hesitation.
* * *
“Can I try making it?”
Professor Bruce gladly nodded at Han Si-ha’s question.
You probably know this, as it is a potion that all students have come across at least once in their Basic Herbology class. If I was in 2nd grade, of course I would have learned it.
However, there was a reason that no one in the classroom had easy access.
Because they know the result, but do not know the principle or process well.
They change the material, so they don’t even get a sense of it.
From Professor Bruce’s expression, he intuited a hint.
‘You already know.’
That confident expression.
I thought it wouldn’t be too much of an issue. It’s a problem that can be overcome with just a little bit of observation.
Han Shiha quickly shook her head.
‘What did that professor emphasize?’
All exams start with understanding the author’s intentions.
Professor Bruce and himself are not first meeting.
Slowly, he pondered the teachings he had given him on the train.
There were only stories that did not appear even in the ‘medicine’ of herbal medicine, but there must have been a core in them.
‘Perhaps… ?’
He focused on the ‘element’, not the material that was limited.
Ice flower of Montene. It’s the first name I’ve heard, but I can guess its properties.
A vine growing on a red baobab tree. This is a material often used in other potions.
Hanshiha soaked a rope made of twisted arrowroot in hot water.
Next, the stems of the vines were cut and put into it and boiled together.
The color of the potion began to turn red quickly.
A bold move without a single hesitation.
Adela, who was watching it from the back seat, burst out in exclamation and stabbed Lee Han in the side.
“what? He said he never studied herbal medicine.”
“Did you study recently?”
“I didn’t have time for that.”
Lee Han also pulled up a chair with a serious face and sat down.
He was cooling the potion in a glass cup as if he had just finished mixing it.
Much faster than expected, Professor Bruce tried to hide his surprised face.
But other students did not.
“Are you doing it right?”
“At least I’m going to hit him anyway.”
Kayle, who sat in the front seat, let out a mean smile. However, both eyes were bruised and bruised, and they only looked endlessly tired.
Professor Bruce shook his head inwardly at Kayle’s words.
It was quick and accurate.
Even though the ingredients had changed, it was a confident gesture as if he had made this potion before.
There was no blockage in Han Si-ha’s actions.
Han Si-ha, who finally completed the potion, held it in the air.
Then.
“Wait a minute!”
He swallowed it without hesitation.
The students whispered again.
“crazy.”
“Aren’t you going to die?”
“What confidence. Were there any other people like that in Ardel?”
Shiha Han calmly swallowed a sip and looked back at Professor Bruce.
“Can I ask you for some fire magic?”
Professor Bruce Miller smiled involuntarily at Han Si-ha’s enthusiasm.
In a normal case, he would have thought that he had swallowed the potion without knowing its identity even though he had made it.
However, this guy in front of me right now was pointing to the point.
Yes.
This was the flame resistance potion on the first page of Basic Herbal Medicine.
A type of basic potion that can withstand heat.
“Fire resistance?”
“The fire resistance doesn’t contain any of those ingredients, right?”
“It’s nonsense.”
Professor Bruce Miller, without hesitation, fired a hot flame from the tip of his wand.
Whoops.
Han Si-ha approached the blazing fire with an infinitely calm expression and held out her hand.
About 3 minutes. In the meantime, you will be able to completely resist the flames.
A face that looks calm, as if immersed in warm water.
“what… ?”
“Did you just put your hand in?”
“Aren’t you holding out?”
Kayle in the front seat clenched her teeth in disbelief.
“That monster bastard.”
Students from other schools stuck out their tongues in shock.
How can only a sophomore solve a problem that even the older students who took advanced herbal medicine couldn’t solve. Some of them opened their mouths and muttered softly.
“Is that the power of Ardel? ?”
“Who said it was out of date?”
“What the hell is second year? .”
“So what’s that guy’s name?”
“Aren’t they taking this tournament?”
noisily.
It was a time when a mysterious atmosphere was about to be created among the students.
Unable to accept the atmosphere of the classroom where Ardel floated, Kayle rubbed her swollen eyes and raised her hand.
“Do you think I can do that?”
it was a bunch
* * *
“Turn it off… So this is it.”
Kayle felt like banging her head on the table.
He stood in front of the classroom in a very pathetic situation, but he was also one of the top 3 talents among Cardbell’s 3rd graders.
If there was a problem, it was that the third year of Cardbell was notorious enough that there were no characters, and that he was the third place he obtained through various anomalies.
Kayle didn’t have the ability.
From Han Si-ha’s point of view, it was natural.
He’s such a small guy that it’s hard to even be called a villain extra.
Thinking about it, it may or may not have been there.
Even if it came out, it would have been described as the size of Cardbell with a dirty personality without a name.
Han Shiha smiled and stood next to Kayle.
“Can I help?”
lively.
It’s creepy when you’re laughing so hard here before.
Kayle felt his broad back shrink and his hands trembled.
In the meantime, his self-esteem was not bent.
“You are funny. It is not difficult.”
The problem Kayle was facing now was the Potion of Restraint Resistance from Basic Herbology, page two.
Although it may not have been learned, just changing the material was enough to panic the students as a group.
Because you don’t see the essence.
“Looks like we have to stop.”
Professor Bruce, who couldn’t see it, looked back at his watch and cut it.
Kayle glared at Han Si-ha, who was standing still with a strong spirit.
Even the ugliness of blaming others after being able to take on a challenge with my own greed and failing to do anything.
It’s so obvious, but it’s a human figure that can be found anywhere, so I laughed out loud.
Professor Bruce said looking at Han Si-ha.
“Let the student finish.”
Han Si-ha calmly completed the potion Kayle had left behind.
“It wasn’t a very difficult problem.”
That single word struck Cale’s self-esteem hard.
“Pretending to be nice.”
Kayle stared at Han Si-ha with bloodshot eyes.
It was when Professor Bruce was turning his head. Kayle muttered this with a grin.
“Unlucky bastard. you must be… .”
“How were you? It was unfortunate.”
Han Shiha smiled and patted Kayle on the shoulder.
It was a relaxed smile unlike Kale who was swaying.
“This bastard is really… .”
“I think you will win. Would you like to place a bet?”
“… .”
He lowered his voice and whispered softly.
“Let’s meet at the contest. You idiot.”
