“What are you talking about?”
“Look at your face.”
“Can’t you see because of the smoke?”
“…are you in first grade?”
With those words, Ko Horti pulled out a monocle with a jewel lens from his arms. It was an artifact that could be seen through the smoke.
“ah!”
Ko Horti discovered the identity of his junior and let out an exclamation.
Last time that…
“Poor freshman who was wrongly caught by an untitled professor!”
“You must be a grateful junior for rectifying the accident you committed. You bastard.”
Dirett looked at Kohorti with scornful eyes.
If you get help from a freshman, you have to bow your head for several years, but the sound of doing it at the best!
Koholti realized that, too, and coughed in embarrassment.
“Of course, thank you. I’m still thankful But I was so impressed that I went with that untitled professor…”
‘Certainly it was.’
Dirett couldn’t deny that.
I’ll never forget Professor Bagreg’s back to the first-year freshman to fight the King of the Frost Giants.
For a few days, I seriously thought about whether I should send an anonymous letter to His Majesty the Emperor.
At first, the party seemed to be getting along well, but…
“Anyway, he’s unique, so don’t worry too much about it.”
“I thought you were only good at suppressing demons, but are you really good at other black magic? Professor Mortum will be delighted.”
Koholti admired the talent of the new junior.
You’re a freshman, and you’re already so good at black magic.
The Mortum Church, which was sad because there were no disciples to learnHe was sure to be very happy.
Originally, a genius is more valuable than a hundred behemoths.
“Well…”
“??”
Kohorti was puzzled as Dirett clouded his speech.
“Maybe I won’t continue to listen to black magic…”
“What nonsense is that?”
Cohorty didn’t understand.
Of course, it was true that black magic was less popular than other magic.
However, if he had that much talent, it was difficult for the wizard himself to not learn, no matter how unpopular he was.
Reading a magic book and practicing spells will increase your achievements endlessly, but which wizard can escape such temptation?
“It’s like that, but…”
Dirett looked at his junior with a complicated gaze.
If only he had a talent for black magic, the other magic was too good, so it was a problem.
‘Isn’t that the way you don’t come back in the second semester?’

Finally, Gainando, who finished the black magic test, spoke to Ymirg and Rapadel.
“how was it? how was it?? Did you see everyone? Did you see me?”
“……”
As Rapadel’s expression frowned, Guy Nando’s eyes twinkled.
Gainando exclaimed in a voice full of joy.
“I didn’t see you!”
‘Are you going to say that while being so happy?’
“right? Haven’t you seen it?!”
“Shut up! You prince!”
Rapadel burst into anger.
That prince did not know any other lectures, but he showed a very good ability only in black magic.
Compared to La Pad L, who doesn’t like black magic that much, he’s a natural fit.
Of course, apart from that, it was disgusting to see him running so excitedly that he had seen him well.
He was the one who was bowing his head as if the world had collapsed after taking the exam in another class!
“Hey, I didn’t see it that well. The exam is difficult.”
“haha. I understand. The black magic test was a bit difficult.”
Gainando answered Ymirg’s words with a generous smile.
“Hey, I cursed and poisoned once, but the bone magic took three times…”
“…uh? Did you succeed at one time?”
Gainando paused.
Ymirg saw it better than he thought.
“Uh huh.”
“I… I also succeeded in bone magic once.”
Rapadel, who was listening, asked without thinking.
“Curse and poison?”
“You shamelessly ask what you saw without answering! Are you still a knight?”
“What kind of crazy bastard…”
“Wow, how did you see Wodanaj?”
Gainando answered Ymirg’s question with a sincere expression.
“It’s rude to ask that.”
“……”
“……”
The two students couldn’t help but marvel at the mean appearance of never asking a friend for their grades who was sure to see them better than they did.
That’s royalty!

“Right now, there is a magic in the classroom that temporarily negates the contract.”
Professor Millais said in his usual strict voice.
The students who were about to take the exam looked at Professor Millais with nervous faces.
“Everyone will remember the last time we signed a contract in another realm.”
Most of the students are from the spirit world.
Students like Lee Han are from the undead world.
Everyone tried to sign a contract as an assignment before the final exam.
“Call out the contracted beings one by one.”
“…?”
One of the students listening did not understand and asked again.
“professor? Isn’t the contract invalid in the classroom right now?”
Otherworldly beings are basically unpredictable, capricious and dangerous.it was existence
These beings could not be called out at will.
Accidents happen even if they are tied to a strict contract.
Of course, the beings contracted by first-year students were at best enough to light a bonfire and refill an empty leather bucket…
Even the first-year students were weak enough to match, so they could never be vigilant.
“Well pointed out. The purpose of this test is to learn how to protect yourself even when there is no contract to protect the wizard’s body.”
“……”
The words sounded plausible, but the students were already anxious.
“Professor Millais, isn’t it too much? How is that different from just throwing monsters and telling them to fight?”
“I once did something similar in a sword and swordsmanship class. I didn’t know summoning magic could be like this.”
While his friends were gossiping, Lee Han pulled out a piece of bone from his pocket.
Then he told his friends.
“what are you doing? Isn’t everyone ready?”
“…I would, but you can complain a little bit!”
“Okay, everyone, move. If you don’t prepare enough, you will only lose.”
His friends grumbled at the sight of Lee Han without blood or tears.
How can you not complain while taking such a ridiculous test?
Indeed, Wodanaj was clearly a person who had never compromised on magic.
‘It must be a test that is not too difficult.’
Contrary to what his friends thought, Lee Han was a little overjoyed.
The difficulty of the test was easier than he thought.

“O spirit of the wind. I believe you.”
Asan tried to speak in a voice that was as soft as possible.
However, his voice was full of tension that could not be hidden.
“So, listen to me… Whoops!”
puck!
The shapeless wind spirit hit Asan’s abdomen with precision.
‘That.’
In Lee Han’s view, the spirit of the wind did not do that because there was no particular hostility or malice.
In the position of fighting numerous monsters with hostility and malice, if they had, the attack should have been much sharper.
That was close to a joke.
Since the Wind Spirit is a low-level spirit that is not very strong, it seemed like she was just showing a sense of fun rather than being angry at the wizard’s command…
“Great! stop! stop!”
Asan, who missed the staff, rolled over to avoid the attack.
The wind spirit persistently pursued it and tried to hit it.
Professor Millais, unable to see, swung his wand and split the two.
“No matter how close we are, it is foolish to continue trying to persuade people through words without a contract. Keep in mind that you also need a firm warning when you are not listening.”
“Sorry, I’m sorry. professor.”
Asan’s failure was a lesson for other students.
The next student immediately grabbed a staff and prepared to attack if the spirit refused to command.
“Magic…”
🥳!
Before the magic was cast, the spirits of the earth scattered sand.
The spirit was the first to notice the hostility of the wizard.
“Pooh, hoop! Poop Poop!”
The earth spirit continued to throw sand.
It was impossible for a freshman to calmly cast magic in such a situation, unless he was a student who was trained to cast magic while maintaining his composure despite being attacked.
The student who failed the spell because of the sand escaped in tears.
“I believed it, I believed it…! I believed it!”
“You were about to attack right away.”
At first, the students jumped in with confidence, but there were a lot of people who failed than expected.
Professor Millais said failed students wait behind the scenes.made it
Anyway, I thought that there would not be many students who succeeded on the first attempt.
‘It’s not good to give a carrot blindly, but it’s just as good to wield a whip indiscriminately.’
How a wizard persuades a spirit when there is no contract binding each other.
The key, after all, was understanding.
How well do I understand spirits?
The magician who somehow made a contract with the spirit, but usually only gave orders without any special sympathy, was exposed at this time.
They don’t know what habits this spirit has, and they don’t know what kind of personality it is, so they don’t know how to approach it.
Whether it was a carrot or a stick, understanding the other person came first.

Now, students who failed in their first attempt will naturally become interested in their summons as they repeat it over and over again.
“…don’t attack me. Understand? Don’t really attack. I did a really good job. Just listen to me once. huh? If you have any complaints, I will listen to them next time…”
The water spirit that Nelia summoned was a familiar spirit to Lee Han too.
Wasn’t it the spirit who made a contract with Nilia to avoid Lee Han on the island last time?
In front of Nelia, she said, ‘Heh, I don’t like spirits that much’, but she couldn’t help but feel upset.
“Isn’t that a very dirty way?”
Guy Nando, who was watching next to her, was puzzled.
Anyway, I think that’s too ugly…
“!!!”
“Okay, that’s it!”
The students exclaimed.
Even without a contract, the water spirit did not reject Nilia’s words and faithfully followed them.
‘You sure are friendly.’
Unlike the other students, Lee Han was able to feel the magical feeling of Nelia’s spirit to some extent.
Innate ability to respond to magic.
He also trained to recognize emotions with illusion magic, so it would be even more strange if he didn’t feel it.
The water spirits summoned by Nilia treated her more friendly than the other spirits.
“indeed. Right.”
“what?”
“If Nelia was bored, she would have summoned a water spirit to have a conversation, so there is no choice but to be closer.”
“…why, why do you do such a lonely thing?”
Guy Nando reacted as if it was hard to believe, but in fact, Lee Han was right.
Professor Millais praised her Nelia’s method highly.
‘I’ve been building closeness since the beginning.’
His attitude was a bit lacking in confidence, but the spirit, who had become so close to him, did not refuse orders.
It was a great way.
“Great Spirit! I… Kek!”
“If you can help me just once… oops!”

Not noticing the intimacy with her spirits that Nelia had built up, students who thought they could just bow politely arose and were kicked out.
Professor Millais shook his head in regret.
‘That…’
“Lee Han. It’s your turn.”
“ah. okay.”
Lee Han cast various strengthening magic and started floating water beads in the air.
Seeing him working calmly, the other spirits that had been summoned before hid behind their master trembling.
Professor Millais felt a different sense of frustration than before.
Of course, that was one of the ways, but this test wasn’t what I wanted!
