16 Imperial University Tower (3)
Swag-
Only the sound of chalk moving Zion resonates in the quiet classroom where even breathing cannot be heard.
The correlation between space distortion and time according to gravity-based magic.
This was the most difficult to understand among modern magic, and at the same time, it was a theory that contained all the concepts of gravity, space, and time, which can be said to be unknown domains that have not been fully understood.
Therefore, with the current level of magic, a perfect answer was impossible from the beginning.
‘ For now.’
However, according to the chronicle, the perfect answer to this technique will appear in the world just before the full-fledged war with the devil begins with less than two years left.
The reason why Zion knew about this rite was because the chronicle describes it in detail.
‘ Even though it was originally a chronicle, it is very rare to describe all the techniques like this.’
This procedure was one of those rare cases.
It was because it was one of the techniques that played an important role in the development of the chronology itself, like the red circle used to find the monsters hidden in Chimseonggung in the past.
Shion’s eyes, who were writing the ceremony, glanced at Tyrian Friharden, who was looking at him with eyes filled with surprise and interest at the same time.
‘ I guess you’re interested in this though.’
I couldn’t help but be interested.
That’s probably because he was the one who created the recipe that Zion himself is writing down on the blackboard now.
To be precise, it was Tyrian in the future, not now.
One of the few interests he had that bothered him to even eat was the magic of space and time.
‘ I studied him endlessly from my previous life, and even after reincarnation, the only regret I didn’t let go of.’
The reason why Tyrian dared to sign up for this lecture and listen to it was that he might be able to get a little clue about him from here.
After meeting the hero in the future, Tyrann accelerates the study of space and time magic, and eventually achieves satisfactory results.
And the starting point for that was the magic that Zion was writing down right now.
Although this procedure itself had no effect, it was a clear answer to the aforementioned theory and at the same time was the cornerstone of all future research on it.
‘ I wish I could wake up a little faster after seeing this.’
tuk-
With that in mind, Sion completes the ceremony by making one last dot.
Even up to that time, everyone in the classroom had their eyes fixed on Zion, or more precisely, on the magic that Zion wrote down.
The eyes of people trembling in incomprehensible silence.
“ Hey, this is… … .”
A mumble of disbelief came from the mouth of Gedner, the professor in charge of this lecture on ‘Pure Gravity Anomalies and the Magical Understanding of Space’.
Since he was in charge of this lecture and had been researching it for almost his entire life since he entered magic, Gadner knew how absurd the answer Sion had written on the blackboard now.
A procedure that replaces all the theories and concepts that have existed in relation to this from the ground up.
Nevertheless, the formula written by Prince Zion perfectly presented the answer to the problem he had written down a while ago.
‘ I’ve never seen anything like that before!’
Of course I had never seen it.
Even the Empire’s best magic society, ‘Rebrion’, was not able to come up with a perfect answer to that question.
It can be said that it is truly a new paradigm.
‘ I have to write it down!’
Right now, I couldn’t understand all the formulas written on that blackboard, so I had to record it somehow.
“ Hey, pen and paper!”
Professor Gadner hurriedly takes the paper and pen from one of the students sitting in the front and begins to transcribe the formula on the blackboard.
Other professors and students, noticing that Professor Gadner’s reaction was unusual, also hurriedly began to transcribe the recipes that Zion wrote down.
‘ After all, you are Zion Agnes… … .’
Like those people, Priscilla was looking at Zion with eyes full of surprise and admiration.
She had already seen Shion draw a magic circle on the spot before, but she was astonished every time she saw Shion’s abilities like that.
A range of abilities that truly has no end.
That is why Priscilla herself felt so deeply curious.
‘ But… … .’
At the same time she felt a crush on Zion like that, she also felt the wall that she would never be able to stand next to her.
Priscilla’s eyes darkened with that thought.
“ Hey, what is this… … .”
Unlike her, Essien couldn’t even take notes and looked at Zion and the blackboard alternately with trembling eyes.
I couldn’t understand even a part of the formula written on the blackboard, but just by looking at the professors’ reactions, I could tell that it wasn’t just written down haphazardly.
How is this possible?
What was happening right before my eyes was as if a person who had just learned the sword had cut a mountain, not a rock.
“ I said that I had never mastered magic at all… … .”
An unbelievable voice came out of his mouth.
bum bum, bum bum.
Sion moved slowly toward such Essien.
People’s eyes are once again focused with him.
As Shion got closer and closer, Essien’s eyes and his whole body began to visibly tremble.
It was not simply because his plans had failed.
Shion’s eyes are getting clearer as they get closer.
The pitch-black darkness within those languid eyes weighed on Essien’s whole body.
‘ I’m such a person… … Were you trying to make it a joke?’
His legs sprinted backwards under the terrible pressure he had never felt before.
Why have I not felt it until now?
“ I mean.”
In the meantime, Sion, who came right in front of Essien, looked into his eyes and opened his mouth in a low voice.
“ I don’t like anyone testing me.”
“ Ugh… … .”
As soon as Shion finished speaking, Essien, unable to withstand the pressure, sat down.
Zion looks at him like that.
Essien felt like a predator contemplating how to kill the prey caught by Shion’s eyes.
How long had the suffocating silence passed?
‘ I’m going to die soon anyway, so I don’t need to use my hands.’
With that thought, Shion, who opened his eyes from Essien, slowly walked towards the entrance of the classroom.
Because the business here is already over, then there is no need to stay there anymore.
“ Sir, His Majesty Zion! Let’s go together!”
Professor Prowood, who was looking at the recipes and lectures written on the blackboard alternately, followed up behind Shion.
The stillness in the classroom that ends only after Zion has completely disappeared.
Soon after, in the midst of the students who were frantically taking notes on the blackboard again,
“ Zion Agnes… … .”
Tyrian Friharden quietly lit up his eyes and muttered Shion’s name.
* * *
At first glance, the room is full of antiques.
Zion, who was sitting at a table in the center of such a room, tilted the cup of coffee in front of him.
“… … Not good.”
With those words, Shion’s eyebrows frowned slightly.
Coffee was Zion’s only pleasure in the world in the chronicle, so Zion’s standards for him were stricter than others.
Shion puts the coffee cup on the table and looks around.
The place where Zion is now was the exclusive reception room where only the distinguished guests could enter even in the Imperial University Tower.
There is one reason why Zion is here now.
It was to meet him after hearing the news that the master of the Imperial University Matop had returned to Matop.

Meeting with the master was the second reason why Shion came to this university.
In fact, in a way, this could have been more important than seeing Tyrian Fryharden.
at that time,
smart-
A knock was heard outside the door.
An old man enters the living room with him.
“ Sorry to keep you waiting, Sir Zion.”
The old man’s hair and beard were very long and white as snow.
A nose that is visible under the wrinkles and a mouth with a soft smile that shows the kindness that has accumulated over the years.
And even a pure white robe that seemed to indicate that he was a wizard.
Like Tyrian, Shion’s eyes lit up at the same appearance as the description in the chronicle.
Ahmad Ozrima.
An archmage who is the tower owner of the Tower of Agnes Empire University, and has reached the end of level 9 and has a glimpse of the secrets of the world.
Although he had various nicknames to describe him, such as a wizard of contempt, a seeker of endless truth, and a white flame emperor, there was one word that best described his strength.
‘The fifth sky.’
In this world, there were people called ‘Seven Heavens’.
Regardless of race or field, it is a term used to refer to the seven strongest beings in the world, excluding demons.
The old man in front of him was called the fifth of these seven heavens.
Truly, one of the strongest in the Chronicles of Flosimar at this point.
“ I was a little late because I saw the recipe written by His Majesty Zion when I arrived. It was really great. It was an answer that even I could learn a few things. When did you learn such magic?”
Ahhamd, who sat in front of Zion, opened his mouth with a smirk, like a benevolent old man, who did not match the aforementioned modifier at all.
“ Where have you been?”
She couldn’t explain it, nor did she have the heart to explain it, so Shion turned the topic around and asked Ahmad.
As Zion knew, Ahmad did not vacate the tower very well.
If he goes out like that, it must be important.
“ I had a problem for a while, so I went to the family. It’s not a big deal, so don’t worry about it.”
Shion didn’t miss the bitterness that faded after being young for a while in the corner of Ahmad’s eyes as he said that.
Ahmad’s family, Ozurima.
As a place called the mastermind of magic, a family boasting of authority among the top five in the Empire.
She was also the mother of the third prince, Enoch.
So, in a way, this situation could have been reluctant for Zion, who was in conflict with Enoch, but there was no sign of such a thing in Zion’s eyes.
‘ Ahmad will never use his power for the sake of the family or Enoch.’
The archmage in front of him now had no interest in power struggles with his family.
No, not to that extent, he was a sick person at all.
Therefore, 20 years ago, he announced his retirement from the family and became the dean of the university’s matopa, and after that, he stopped all outside activities and became an educator focusing only on nurturing juniors.
Perhaps today’s visit to the Ozurima family is a way to break the continual conciliation of the family.
“ Yeah? So, shall we go straight to the point?”
It was time for Shion, who smiled at him, to explain why he had finally come to him.
“ Wait, one thing before that. I have a question for you.”
At Shion’s words, Ahmad shook his head.
“ What?”
“ Sir Zion, do you believe that there is such a thing as human nature?”
“… … .”
The old wizard’s voice slowly continued to Shion’s ear, who didn’t answer that question.
“ I believe it exists. After I was able to actually get a glimpse of the secrets of the world, I was able to get a glimpse of the essence of human beings, too.”
The eyes of Ahmad looking straight into the eyes of Zion.
“ I have already met His Majesty Zion in the past. And I clearly remember the essence of the charge I saw at that time. Unlike other princes and princesses, it was a very clear color, so I couldn’t forget it.”
However, the essence of Zion we see now is completely different.
No, it might not be right to say that I can’t see anything.
All I can see is a black abyss like darkness.
“ The essence of a person cannot be changed because it is like destiny. If the essence had changed, the person would no longer be considered the same person.”
In the eyes of the Archmage who grabbed the fragments of truth, an inexplicable vertigo begins to grow young.
“ Sir Zion, who are you?”
A low question came out of Ahmad’s mouth.
