horsepower.
Mana, magical power, which some tribes in the East call ‘Qi’, form-loving scholars ether, and stubborn priests call it divine power, this power was the source of sorcerers.
The power to change the world!
It was only natural for young wizards to suffer from a lack of magic, as they had to draw out and consume the magic within them every time they use magic.
But I tried up to the 7th, and it’s standing still.
“What is the student’s name?”
“I’m Lee Han.”
Professor Troll, Garcia smiled slightly.
He had a crush on him when he said his name instead of the family name.
nobility. It was also rare among the great aristocrats who did not mention the family name.
He is a person who fits well with ‘equality’, one of the school’s ideologies.
“Come here.”
“uh…”
Lee Han was anxious and approached.
‘Did I just have to stumble?’
Everyone else staggered with their magical powers, but it was true that I was a bit puzzled as I was standing all alone.
He wondered if he had used his magic properly.
“Hmm. Hmm. okay.”
As Garcia grabbed Ihan’s wrist and nodded his head, Guy Nando behind him whispered to Yoner.
“hey. Isn’t it supposed to be saved?? What if I swallow it like that?”
“…Professor, you’ll hear everything, so be quiet, you idiot.”
“!?”
Garcia let go of his wrist.
“After it’s over, Lee Han, please stay for a while.”
“ah. Yes.”
* * * *
After that, ＜Understanding Basic Magic> didn’t do much magic training.
Instead, Professor Garcia sternly preached the mindset of a wizard.
“When you run out of mana, you must rest unconditionally. Especially when you’re not good enough yet! Don’t fret about your lack of magic. If you train, the amount of magic power will increase, and if you have a knack, the consumption of magic will also decrease. There are always cases where freshmen are so motivated that they secretly practice magic and fall down. If you’re unlucky, you can seriously injure yourself, so you should never do that. and students. I do not swallow students.”
“Sin… I’m sorry.”
Guynando trembled and apologized.
“ruler. Today’s lesson ends here. In addition to the required courses, other optional courses are offered throughout the school, so go and listen to them and think about what you’ll learn. If you are not sure, you can come to my room and ask.”
“……”
“……”
The students exchanged glances.
-Can you go to the half-troll professor’s office and have a one-on-one consultation?
– Are you crazy?
…the same exchange of glances.
“Wordanaz. Be careful.”
“right. A troll’s weakness is fire and acid.”
“Aren’t you both here?”
“…Wordanaz. Be careful.”
Hearing the cheers of other students, Han Lee stood in front of Professor Garcia.
“Actually, I first heard about Lee Han.”
“??”
Lee Han stopped at the unexpected words.
what?
“If I told the principal, would the story be faster?”
“…!”
Lee Han’s face hardened when he heard from the mad Ritchie Principal.
Professor Garcia said with a laugh.
“No worries. There are times when the principal looks like a crazy bastard, but he’s basically a good person.”
“…Yes??”
Does that make sense?
But Professor Garcia continued, pretending not to hear.
“At the beginning of every year, the principal scans the new students and simply tells the professors.”
Unbeknownst to the students, Principal Rich had a very keen eye.
The new students entering this school are boys and girls of all kinds who have just grown up in the Empire.
A keen eye is needed to prevent accidents from happening.
– Be careful with that dwarf. As you can see, he’s a guy who burns his dorm room three times.
-under! That’s a mixed demon. Professors who use holy magic beware. so as not to get hurt.
– That’s a pickpocket from the ＜White Crow> guild, right? Professors, be careful. No one comes to complain about being pickpocketed by a student, right? Such a bastard would be thrown into a dungeon.
Ignoring the principal’s words of courseThere were also several professors.
Principal Rich had a keen eye, but…
He also had a maniacal personality no less than that.
-That orc… I think he’s good at using a spear.
-Are you from a family famous for swordsmanship?
– Shut up! Tell them to use the window.
-……
The principal said this about Lee Han.
– That guy has the qualities of Daewoo (大愚).
-…??
Daewoo (大愚).
It meant very stupid.
Of course, the professors weren’t stupid enough to take those words outright.
There was a famous saying among the proverbs of the eastern empire.
– Daewoo (大愚) is the earth (大智).
A very foolish appearance has something in common with a very wise appearance.
It was an old adage that one should not be deceived by appearances and seek true wisdom.
If so, then the principal’s words meant something like this.
– It’s hard to tell right now, but you can see the qualities that will make a big comeback later.
The reaction of the professors who were present was divided in half.
“I think he has some talent when he says that,” or “Did you get a big drink from a member of the Wodanaj family yesterday?”
And Professor Garcia now seemed to know what the principal meant.
‘That’s what I meant.’
“Uh… what did the principal say?”
Lee Han became slightly ominous.
Being favored by a professor had its advantages and disadvantages.
If he was favored, he could get good grades and letters of recommendation. This is an advantage that cannot be ignored.
However…
If you get more than a certain number of favors, the following conversation will begin.
-guy. Your talent is not worth rotting like this.
-thank you!
-okay. You have to go to graduate school!
-Yes? never thought of…
-If you go out and get a job now, do you know how competitive the competition is? If you go to graduate school and get a degree, you can get a job with better conditions and, above all, sell your favorite studies more deeply. How good are you?
– I think it’s because you say so.
It would have been better if I met a professor with a good personality.
If you meet the evil mad professor, hell begins.
And Principal Richie…
‘He’s a person I never want to be friends with.’
Lee Han wanted to graduate with stable grades and good personal connections, but he didn’t want to go down the mysterious magic road because he became close with the Skeleton Principal.
“ah. Sorry. I can’t tell you exactly what the principal said… Instead, I’ll tell you about the talents of the students. The words of the headmaster are similar to this.”
“!”
Lee Han’s eyes widened at Professor Troll’s words.
It’s Lee Han’s talent.
‘Is my talent… was it enough to say something like this?’
While in the Wodanaj family, Lee Han had never really heard anything about talent.
He was, of course, confirmed that he had magical powers.
Because Lee Han’s father, the head of the Wodanaj family, also said the same thing.
– What about my talents?
-Well. Your magic skills are pretty decent.
-thank you.
And that was it.
However, I was a little embarrassed that he was suddenly telling me about his talent.
‘Isn’t this a bad story?’
Lee Han seriously began to ponder whether he should invest with Yonaire and set up an alchemy workshop.
“Student Lee Han has a lot of magical power.”
“…Yes? Is that all?”
Ian was stunned.
It’s not like ‘I have a problem casting magic’ or ‘I can’t use light attribute magic because my light attribute magic doesn’t fit me physically’, it’s just that I have a lot of magical power.
I’m glad it’s not bad, but…
I wondered if it was necessary to say this separately.‘Did you know that each person’s innate amount of magical power is different and can be overcome with training and tricks? Is it important enough to say this separately?’
“Of course, that’s not all.”
“Ah… that’s right.”
“Student Lee Han has a lot of magical power.”
“…???”
“Really, really, like crazy, a lot, a lot?”
“Five.”
Only then did Lee Han understand why Professor Garcia had called him out and spoke seriously.
* * * *
After hearing the detailed explanation, Lee Han thought.
‘Isn’t that good?’
To use magic, you need magical power.
If you don’t have enough magical power, you’ll have to replace it by drawing in the magic that is spread outside, collecting the magic with a magic circle, or using a magic stone that contains magic.
But if you have a lot of magic, you don’t have to.
A very useful talent for a wizard…
“I’m sorry.”
“???”
However, Professor Garcia was looking at Lee Han with a mixture of pity and concern.
In those eyes, Lee Han realized that something was going wrong.
“Isn’t it good to have a lot of magic power?”
“It’s usually good to have a lot. But the number of Lee Han students is really huge. Water in a glass bottle is so easy to handle, but controlling the water in a huge ocean can be very difficult, isn’t it?”
At Professor Garcia’s words, Lee Han realized the seriousness of the situation and his expression hardened.
So now…?
‘Magic difficulty goes up like crazy?’
Read at noblemtl.com
Not a single student has succeeded in learning the very simple magic of ‘light emission’ today.
So magic was a difficult science.
Draw out the magic, focus, bind with will…
All of this requires superhuman concentration.
However, when the amount of magic power increased so much that it could not be controlled, the difficulty level went up even more.
“ruler. Get this bracelet here.”
A crude and heavy iron bracelet.
Professor Garcia put bracelets on Lee Han’s wrists one by one.
“It’s a bracelet that absorbs magic. It will help.”
“!”
Still, Lee Han was moved by the way the magic school immediately gave a solution.
“As long as you’re wearing this, it shouldn’t be a problem!”
“yes? no. Would it be terribly difficult even if I wore this?”
“……”
“It’s so powerful that I can’t help it no matter what I do. I do it because it’s better than not doing it.”
Professor Garcia was a relatively kind and gentle man, but he was a wizard.
A wizard would never turn around and say something like this.
“…any other advice?”
“Um… I think it would be better if you use a lot of magic and consume your magic. Han Lee can practice basic magic training by herself. I will never have an accident due to depletion of my magic.”
“…thank you.”
In a way, he was given preferential treatment, but Lee Han was not very happy.
* * * *
‘ah. Should I take these non-magical classes?’
It was called a magic school, but it wasn’t just subjects that used magic.
Even if it was just alchemy right now, there was little use of magic.
After leaving the professor’s room, Lee Han’s head became complicated.
‘From the first year onwards, you need to set a good career path and manage your grades well so that you won’t regret it when you graduate later…’
“You are alive!”
Gainando and Yoner were waiting at the bottom of the stairs.
Gainando looked up and down Lee Han to see if he was genuinely worried.
“What are you looking at?”
“I’m just looking for any signs of being bitten by the professor.”
At Yonaire’s words, Lee Han strikes the Guy Nando as if it’s ridiculous.saw it all
‘Well, it’s strange not to doubt the professor when you see the skeleton principal.’
“What did you hear?”
Lee Han shrugged at the question Yoner asked as if curiously.
“I heard you practice a lot of magic.”
“dare…!”
Guynando was angry like his own.
How dare you tell the son of the great family to practice magic a lot.
What a rude thing to say!
‘If you get angry after hearing that, if you don’t take the test later and take the test again, wouldn’t you be asking the professor for a duel, kid?’
“My job is done. I want to take the electives before the next required course. Do you have any subjects in mind?”
“I am of course an alchemist.”
At Yonaire’s words, Guy Nando laughed outright.
“a. Alchemy is for servants and slaves!”
“……”
Lee Han could see clearly.
Yoner’s fists clenched tightly!
