Episode 17. Beginning (4)
“Professor Ludwig! Professor Ludwig! You said something big happened?”
“············”.
Elemental magic classroom.
Ludwig, who had been carrying his back, looked back at Alkanzin’s voice.
There, CEO Alexia stood there with her eyes twinkling.
“What have you been doing up until now. It was in full swing.”
“I was sleeping! hehehe.”
“············”.
When I saw Alexia answering with a bright expression on her face, I sighed.
Who among the faculty would dare to wake Alexia from sleep? Probably only Professor Sergei.
Although it has been more than three years since she took office as the president of Imperial University, she was still the object of fear among professors.
Ludwig realized earlier that she wasn’t something to be afraid of.
“So what happened?”
“It wasn’t an accident, it was a terrorist attack.”
“Yes? Terror?!”
“Didn’t you hear from the assistant?”
“Yes! They were talking about something, but after listening to the intro, I ran right away!”
“············”.
I turned my head to see a young man with glasses running hard at the end of the hallway.
Are you Alexia’s assistant?
He is a human being who assists the impatient soul…
I thought that the work would not be difficult.
“I prepared a cart of magic stones to use as a teaching aid. The students said that the explosion artifact came from inside the cart.”
“That must have been a big deal! Did you catch the culprit?”
“Not yet. Everyone related to the Manastone Cart has been booked, but there is no progress in the investigation.”
“By the way! I think the explosive power would have been considerable with just a cart of magic stones! How can the damage be so low?”
Alexia pointed to the pulpit.
The charred, torn space was at most a spherical shape with a radius of 10 meters.
Other than that everything was fine.
“I blocked it.”
“Are you Professor Ludwig?”
“Yes.”
“Hey… Really? Are you sure?”
“············”.
“Are you sure? Why don’t you talk? Yes? Yes?”
“············”.
Alexia began to laugh with a playful expression on her face.
Ludwig, realizing the meaning of that smile, had no choice but to shut his mouth and close his eyes tightly.
For her, who is a demon, the extent of a human lie is easily distinguishable.
“······Chairman, think as you please.”
“I don’t think so! hehehe, then who stopped the explosion?”
“I won’t tell you.”
“Are you Schlus Heinkel? Are you a senior student?”
“············”.
“Looks right!”
“············”.
Ludwig closed his eyes again.
Even if you don’t say anything, you can tell if it’s authentic or not just by looking at your face.
There has never been a more hateful thing for Alexia to be a Magician than now.
“Huheung! Why did Professor Ludwig so honest lied to me! There was a reason!”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Shlus, you were trying to protect that commoner child, right? If you build such an achievement from the first day of school, powerful families will be wary of Schlus!”
“Wrong. My mage promotion test is in progress, isn’t it. That’s it.”
“You’re too bad at lying, really!”
“············”.
Ludwig’s clenched fist trembled.
Standing in front of this woman makes me feel naked.
That’s why I didn’t want to meet you…
“So where is the hero now? I want to meet you now!”
“I’m going to be in class.”
“Yes? Class? Isn’t it a day off today?”
“Did you forget by now. Isn’t that child double majoring?”
“ah······!”
Alexia’s eyes widened.
Come to think of it, Schlusus was majoring in two majors: elemental magic and combat magic.
That means he’s taking a combat magic class by now…
After stopping this huge explosion, can you afford to take additional classes?
Even she, who is a demon, seems to be able to stop this explosion only if she puts a lot of effort into it. Is he really a human?
“hehehehe…
“Yousek-kun! Follow me!”
“Yes? Where else are you going?”
“I’m going on a field trip to the battle magic class!”
“Hey, are you going to walk there again?!”
“Can I pick you up and carry you?”
“No! I will run hard!”
Yousek, an aide who had tasted the express train to Hell by hanging at Alexia’s hand in the past, shook his head quickly.
It would be better to run for 10 more minutes than that.
Looking at Alexia running away and Yousek diligently chasing behind him, Ludwig sighed as the ground went down.
“Say it.”
Alexia, known for her indifference to the affairs of the human world, shows such enthusiasm.
It was clear that the world was going to end.
***
“This training golem will automatically determine its strength according to your level.”
f*cked.
Really f*cked up.
Hanging his head so that his neck hurt, Schlust thought so.
Where in the world is there a school that fights monsters like that from day one?
“Have you all seen it?”
“Yes.”
“Yeah. You’ll get used to it.”
‘What······?’
The students nodded as if it was natural.
Schlusz looked around in an awkward way, but there was no sign of embarrassment leaking from his eyes.
Because he was already dead in the first place.
‘Let’s be calm. Still, there must be a way. If you understand the weaknesses of the golem as much as possible by watching what other kids are doing…’
“Then let’s start… Yes! To the senior student, Schlus Heinkel!”
“············”.
Shulus, who was rolling his head, bit his lip and stepped forward.
The plan was in vain.

Just thinking about cancer, I could only imagine a future where the golem would be devastated.
Even if it was a training golem, the level was geared towards the students of the Imperial University.
So, as an ordinary person, or a person with lower physical abilities, there was no way to deal with him.
“Professor Sergei.”
“Oh, yes.”
“Is it okay to disable the golem by any means?”
“No, it would be impossible to neutralize… Well, if you can do it.”
“Then is it okay to use a weapon?”
“Weapons? Of course not.”
“And that iron pipe?”
“Oh, this?”
Sergei picked up the iron pipe that was draped over his shoulder and looked at it.
It was an item that was taken off when the pipe collapsed a while ago and is being used as a back scraper.
“Nothing like this. I’m afraid I’ll bring something like a siege gun again. Uh-huh!”
“Then would you like to borrow it?”
“Is this…? Can I borrow it?”
Sergei tilted his head and threw the iron pipe.
The iron pipe that flew around and flew around was caught in Schlus’ left hand.
What’s your plan to borrow an iron pipe as a weapon?
Why are you trying to fire a railgun with lightning magic?
Sergei crossed his arms and took a step back with an interesting look on his face.
‘Magic is…’
[Residual Magical Amount: 52]
‘Gul eat.’
It is an absurdly small amount of magic to use.
If you try to use gravity magic, you won’t be able to move a few sheets of paper and you’ll run out of magic.
If so, there is no other number left.
I have no choice but to use the swordsmanship that I have honed in the past (which is an embarrassing martial art to call it).
‘But will that be enough?’
Let’s say that somehow, by using swordsmanship, he succeeded in defeating the lowest level golem.
Due to the nature of the combat magic class, the student’s strength level determined on the first day will have an effect thereafter.
Of course, there are cases where the skills are improving day by day, so it will never have an absolute impact, but it was obvious that it would be fatal at least until the midterm exam.
And Schlust was in a position where he had to take the top overall in the first semester, in both the midterm and final exams.
Even if it’s a bit overkill, it means that you have to get good grades in this test.
‘f*ck. I hate being sick…’
Having made a decision, Schlus took a deep breath and moved his feet.
The students were puzzled by the strange posture, but only the two of them understood Schlust’s intentions.
‘Huh? Long sword swordsmanship?’
‘Long Sword ······ Northern family school.’
Sergei and Tree.
It was two people who had held the sword, so I recognized it at once.
Bite your right foot back and hold the iron pipe with both hands and raise it above your head.
Whether it was a stable center of gravity or a method of holding a pipe, it was never a beginner’s posture.
The fact that there was someone who knew how to use a sword at the Imperial University where they were learning magic surprised them a little, but that was all.
He didn’t feel the overwhelming sense of intimidation that must be felt by an overwhelmingly strong person, which he couldn’t hide if he didn’t pay attention.
“Then I’ll start. The moment you step off the golem will start attacking.”
Paang!
The moment Sergei’s palms clashed with each other, a pounding sound spread throughout the classroom.
It was a sign of the beginning.
But Schlusus was still standing still for more than 3 seconds, maintaining his initial posture.
Gradually, the students, who were watching with nervousness, started talking and making a fuss.
“What is it. Is it sticky?”
“Ah, no way. Who is afraid of a training golem. No matter how commoner it is.”
Schlus, who had been listening to all the soft sounds through his sensitive sixth sense—
‘f*ck. You’re a dog.’
He had been terribly frightened.
It’s more than twice my height.
In addition, the body bulked up like some kind of kangaroo was terrifying.
It feels like my bones are going to crumble just by rubbing it against that stone fist. I wonder what’s for training.
‘please. There must be something useful in Schlus’s memory.’
Swallowing his saliva, he activated his ability.
‘My own memory’
Then, the translucent image began to be projected everywhere like a hologram.
snowy mountain.
Schlusus was holding up his sword in the same posture as me.
And the figure of a giant wolf monster unfolded before my eyes.
It was slightly shorter than the golem, but it was still creepy at first sight.
But soon the excitement began to fade as the memories, emotions, and determination of Schlusus flowed in.
His memory didn’t help much.
Because the way you deal with the wolf monster couldn’t be the same as the way you deal with golems.
When I met an overwhelming opponent, I just had the courage to move my stiffened body.
‘great. That’s it.’
But that was enough.
Vessel. Confidence. Just getting it was enough.
A relaxed smile slowly spread across Schlus’s lips.
‘Smile? Are you that confident?’
Sergei tilted his head and looked at the information on the golem.
Level 1.
The level of golems from 1 to 10 was currently adjusted to 1.
This meant that the Golem judged Schlus’s combat power as the minimum of 1 or less.
That’s why Schlust’s laughter didn’t make any sense.
“Whoa….”
Schlusus took a deep breath and prepared for the final course of battle.
What was considered the last resort, was to activate the internal circuit.
Of course, if you do not raise the stat of mana coordination force with ‘selection and concentration’, the internal circuit is virtually impossible to use.
This is because the magical energy that his poor internal circuit pours out is only poisonous, let alone a source of power in the body, if there is no high mana coordination stress.
However, just because the mana coordinating force is only 1 does not mean that the energy is not converted to mana at all. A very small percentage can be converted.
However, if you turn the internal circuit blindly, you will only be stunned and bleed like the last time.
There is only one way to solve this.
It’s enough to turn the internal circuit just enough to not be stunned.
Last time, I put 10 mana, and since the fourth month has passed, I only need to pour in 10 percent of that.
‘I have to die more.’
Even though he knew it was crazy, Schlust put it into action.
Because there was no other answer than this.
Under Schlus’ delicate manipulation, a drop of magic fell.
The moment that drop fell and permeated the internal circuit…
Whoa, whoa, whoa…!
The storm began.
‘what. Suddenly the level…?’
Sergei flinched.
The golem’s level was soaring in real time.
The number that had changed like crazy in less than a second had reached 10.
If the training golem judges the level to be 10, it is an incumbent Senior Knight or Stella Rank Wizard…
Or it was at a higher level.
Koo!
“What?!”
At that moment, the new form of Schlusus disappeared.
Sergei and Trie were fast enough to follow, but at least they seemed so to the other students.
he is so cool🥶
