Chapter 159
Meggen’s lecture was completed without any problems.
Except for that practice a little while ago, I didn’t ask any more questions.
after class like that.
I headed to the department head’s office of the public magic class.
‘The real business will be from now on.’
Immediately upon arrival, a voice is heard from beyond the door saying, “Come in.”
My ears are bright too.
“Excuse me. Professor Meggen.”
“You came sooner than expected. According to your reputation, I thought you would come more leisurely.”
“I’m really curious, but what is my evaluation among professors?”
“Are you curious?”
I thought for a moment and then shook my head.
If you don’t know, it’s better not to know.
“Is there any tea you like?”
“I am more interested in that place than the car.”
I moved my gaze to the decorative stand placed in the corner of the department chair’s office.
There were several bottles of alcohol that seemed to claim, ‘I’m precious!’
Is it the department head’s collection?
‘It’s a good-looking drink.’
It’s because I’m a young man who is in the middle of drinking.
“hahahaha, it’s still early for you.”
“There is a saying that the right time is the best time.”
“Don’t joke. Do you want to see the department chair fired?”
Chet. It’s a waste.
Then, with those drunkards, I promise the following.
“So, how was it?”
“Are you talking about the lecture? well… … . I think it was a great lecture worthy of Professor Meggen.”
It wasn’t really a mouthful.
At least in my opinion, it is true that the level was higher than that of professors in other public magic classes.
There were no complaints about the quality of the lectures.
To say that, it would have to be at least the point where I surpassed his abilities.
“Is that all?”
However, judging from the reaction of department head Meggen, it is not likely that he simply wanted to hear the evaluation of the class.
Maybe what he wants to hear… … .
“It was a very friendly class. Thanks to someone, I thought I didn’t really need air conditioning in the second half of the lecture.”
“You are honest.”
“Because that seems like what you want to hear.”
It is not an evaluation of the quality of lectures.
He must have wanted to hear the opinions of the people taking the lecture.
“You seem to think that the atmosphere among the public magic classes has been blatantly chilled lately.”
“You heard it too, didn’t you?”
“ah… … . What about that noble thing? Foot! He says he is noble!”
I guarantee that after about 10 years, I will think of my own words and kick the blanket myself.
However, the idea was not limited to the public magic class.
some of the students.
Conceit of students from high aristocracy.
“I don’t think it’s anything new. … … It’s been a bit more brutal lately.”
“I’m sure it’s not an illusion.”
I don’t think it’s particularly new for them to show off and argue.
It was good.
On the contrary, if you fight, there will be more to eat, so welcome to me!
But what’s annoying is the bloody atmosphere that follows.
“Recently, I’ve been feeling murderous even for guys who don’t belong to those idiots.”
“Is it to live… … .”
“Because that’s just the right word.”
What’s changed lately is the kids who are on the other side of those idiots.
A slightly disquieting feeling began to linger in the students who were from lower nobility or commoners.
“It’s a confrontation.”
“Is that so… … .”
Because it’s blatant.
When the students of the aristocratic faction asserted their nobility, the hostility of the students on the opposite side became more blatant.
even.
“My behavior was different from what I expected, so I seemed to be annoyed by that as well.”
“As expected… … .”
Department head Meggen puts on a sick face.
“To split a faction over something like that. How foolish.”
You may feel it yourself, but you will see more from the student’s point of view than from the professor’s point of view.
It was a fact I already knew.
“There can be no conflict. People feel hostility toward those who stand in a different position than they do.”
“That’s about it too. Especially recently, it has been rapidly deteriorating.”
“worse… … .”
“You are what both sides are paying attention to. draft.”
“… … Chit.”
I didn’t care about the fact that I was in front of the department head and just clicked my tongue.
It was not an unfounded rumor.
“You know? Among the students, it has already been said that Xi’an is the chief of the 83rd class. hahahaha.”
“Is there still an announcement?”
Grade 1 is still under deliberation.
“But nobody doubts you.”
“… … but.”
To be honest, if my name was left out of the rankings, I would know without even thinking about it.
There is nothing to hide.
“In short, the bloody atmosphere of the public magic class recently is because of my rank?”
“That word is a bit cryptic, but it is true that at least the children are conscious of you.”
“OMG… … .”
It’s a nuisance.
Those who belong to the so-called vested interests are wary of me.
People who don’t belong there are expecting me, but I’m not showing them the way they want.
“Especially in the current common magic class, this trend is even more serious.”
“… … Study at that time.”
It wasn’t something I couldn’t understand.
The magicians had elitism firmly rooted in their heads, and the proportion of vested interests occupying the upper classes was very large.
“It’s nothing for me, a student, to worry about.”
“is it? Don’t you know why Professor Malek gnashed his teeth at you last time?”
“ah! okay. So, is it the Magic Tower?”
“Oh oh? I see you know that far.”
Professor Malek is a friendly horse pagoda among the professors of the public magic class.
In fact, it wasn’t just the students who were brutal.
In the first place, seniors. Furthermore, the professors were already so divided.
The so-called professors from the Mage Tower and the professors who didn’t.
“Will Professor Malek’s position be in trouble if I become the chief?”
“It’s none of your business.”
“Then I don’t care.”
It sounds like there’s something.
Perhaps the head of Meggen’s hurried return to the meeting and intervened.
Was it not to stop Professor Malek’s arbitrariness, but because he was concerned about the Mage Tower’s intervention?
Because he’s against the Mage Tower’s ideology.
“Knowing that, the department head recommended me to listen to the lecture… … . How much more did he encourage you to show off your skills?”
“What do you think it is for?”
“Obviously. You must want to show it to the idiots who are tired of bloodlines.”
It was said in a slightly sarcastic tone.
It’s because Department Director Meggen used me to stimulate those who had it.
I know it, but I’m not willing to say it.
“Sian, shall we take a look at your capabilities for a moment?”
“… … yes? competence?”
“It’s a simple test.”
The moment when Meggen’s department head lightly flipped his palm.
The space inside the department chair’s office begins to expand rapidly.
‘Spatial magic… … .’
In addition, it simultaneously spreads a solid barrier to prevent damage to objects.
Looks like he’s showing off his abilities as a wizard.
“Wouldn’t you like to show it to me?”
“I don’t have any spirits.”
“hahahaha, then what about this? If you surprise me, I’ll give you something that catches your eye.”
“Aha~, can’t you take back those words?”
His love interest was the first thing I noticed.
“Can I choose?”
“If you make me admire you.”
Don’t say anything else.
Take out the wand and raise the demon to the max.
On the other hand, the head of the department is bare-handed. No other equipment was used.
‘Nevertheless, the difference in skills is evident.’
5 circles and.
8 circles.
It is quite natural that there is a difference.
“Then, shall we play a little trick?”
“Hoo… … . You are confident.”
I spoke to him calmly, stretched out his demonic spirit, and made him shoot countless lances at his back.
“Is it an art of determining the trigger point from a distance? You learned an interesting technique. There shouldn’t be a textbook like this in the black magic class, right?”
“The trend these days is self-study and preparation.”
Department head Meggen blocks the shot from the goal without even lifting a hand.
Blocked by his magical power, the goal window freezes in the air and crumbles down as it is.
It was not magic, but pure mana was released, and it was done only with that pressure.
Just like the enormous water pressure in the deep sea, if you have a large amount of mana, you can do that as easily as breathing.
“Is this all?”
“Can it be? I just needed to be sure it was okay to hit it with all my might.”
“hahahaha, try it with confidence.”
OK.
For some reason, I wanted to feed him a room.
black rot.
A trap of flame teeth that formed around the head of the department attacked him all at once.
Of course it’s easily blocked.
“And pour this over.”
– Lightning Inferno.
Pours 5 circle magic from the front.
Waves of black lightning and flames engulf him.
“As expected, the 5th circle. That’s unbelievable power for something that has just entered. If I hadn’t stopped him, Malek would have been really dangerous.”
With an interesting tone, the raging flames stopped.
Pushing the still flames left and right, the head of the department walked out.
“Space Magic… … .”
“It’s easy to show this to students. How much more so to show it in Dalian.”
Speaking as if praising me, Meggen’s department head showed off his specialty magic as if boasting.
The coordinates of the flames were fixed in space and stopped. Accurate calculations to the extent that even calories can be captured.
Meggen’s greatest specialty is the art of taking over that space.
“Hmm, you sure are amazing. but… … Is it reasonable enough?”
“Aha~, how about this?”
I won’t be satisfied if you don’t surprise me somehow.
I smiled mischievously and blew the black flame charcoal lightly as if throwing it away.
“hmm? for a moment? you?!”
However, black flames are headed in the wrong direction.
It was not Meggen who was aiming for, but the chest of drawers with the favorite drinks he had put away to expand the space.
Anyway, I can’t stand the collection.
“Are you kidding too much?!”
It was the time when he hurriedly reached out his hand to block the pouring black flame with space magic.
“Because the department head said that you don’t have to choose any means.”
While Meggen looked away for a moment, I pulled up the magi, strengthened my whole body, and drew my dagger and jumped in.
“this… … .”
He frowns and stops me.
The dagger comes to a close stop in front of him.
From noble mtl dot com
The embers that flowed from the dagger lightly burned his collar.
“… … .”
“Isn’t it enough to make it even slightly tanned?”
“… … It is good to see Professor Daniel struggling.”
After blowing the magic, he deliberately rushes and makes it difficult to block me.
It could be a rough bounce, but it was a cheeky thing to know his personality to protect the students from getting hurt.
“A promise?”
“Okay. take it.”
He sighs and waves his hands. The expanded space returns to its original state.
Even with so much magic, not a single rug on the floor was burned.
It’s scary, the master of the 8th circle.
Obviously, the sparring from a moment ago had been played by conceding several moves to me.
“Choose what you want.”
“Then I will choose without hesitation.”
I open the chest of drawers moderately without worrying and take out a bottle.
Then, the head of the department is more frightened and surprised than when he took a shot at me a moment ago.
What I chose is what I call Vilones 240 Year Old.
It was a high-end product produced in the Vilonnes territory in the northern part of the empire.
“Is that what you have to choose?! It was difficult to obtain.”
“I’m a bit high-eyed.”
“I’m very curious about your usual lifestyle. … … No, I’m starting to worry about the lives of the students as well.”
“Don’t worry. Maybe I’m the only one doing this.”
Hopefully other students will do this.
I’m the only one who’s messed up in this school!
“I am not proud.”
After putting the bottle in my bag without hesitation, I come back and sit on the sofa as if nothing happened.
“After checking my abilities one by one, what do you want me to do?”
“I will make one suggestion without hesitation.”
He smiles like a mischievous grin, the kind I would have had a moment ago.
If other heads of departments have heard of it, ask them to hold their back.
“Are you willing to teach our kids the harsh reality?”
“That’s an attractive proposition.”
