Pride
Prof. Ethan Brave was fidgeting like a dog in pain until the end of the magic and pharmacy class, and then left the classroom as soon as the class bell rang.
“assistant! Collect the potions submitted by the students! Be sure to put a name tag on it so it doesn’t get mixed up! And keep Leon Farostel’s potion separate!”
After giving the instructions, the students looked at Leon with no hesitation as they ran back and forth down the hallway.
I don’t know what the hell happened, but the atmosphere alone was enough to understand that Leon caused another incident.
However, Leon did not care about the reactions of those around him, and took the textbook and the combination formula he had organized while producing this mana potion.
‘There are still a lot of things that need to be improved to release the mana potion to the world.’
The mana potion produced this time was focused on stability.
The theory of mana potion has been thinking since the days of Won-hyeong Lee.
However, I was considering making a mana potion until Leon’s alchemy skills such as measuring skills and dexterity were sufficient, but the material of the mana potion contained a lot of toxic substances that could cause problems in the circle.
In order to completely neutralize the poison, perfect alchemy skills were required, and mana potions were produced in such a way that no problems would occur even if the performance was a little lower.
‘But if it’s like this…’
It was expected that the performance of the mana potion could be greatly enhanced while maintaining the stability even if the combination formula was slightly improved.

Leon woke up in the dormitory.
“Hello, how are you? master.”
Beside Leon like that, Veronica waited for Leon to wake up with a neat posture.
The current dormitory used by Leon was a general building.
The dormitories used by students at Philo Academy are divided into three categories: special, excellent, and general, which discriminates in the treatment of students according to the academy’s grades.
Leon was the best student no matter what anyone said, but unfortunately, when Leon skipped to secondary school, the dormitories in the special and excellent wards were full, so he had no choice but to use the general wing.
In the case of special wards and excellent wards, there was a separate room for servants so that servants to take care of the students could stay with them, but there was no such thing in general wards.
In other words, Veronica left the dormitory just before Leon fell asleep, stayed in the servant dormitory, and returned to Leon’s dormitory before Leon woke up and was waiting.
Leon was amazed by that fact.
“You have improved a lot.”
“Thanks to the master’s teaching.”
“What are my teachings? It was Isaac who taught you swordsmanship.”
“Sir Isaac is also a sword possessed by the master. Then everything he teaches me will be the same as the master teaches me.”
Leon is sensitive to sleeping.
I woke up easily even with the slightest noise or light pretending, and I couldn’t get a deep sleep.
It was a habit acquired after losing several wars as a mage soldier.
Soldiers who have been defeated in the war have to flee to a safe area as the remnants of the war.
However, the gait of ordinary monsters is so fast that they cannot be compared with ordinary soldiers, and if they lose a war, many monsters will come to the area and take over the territory.
Naturally, the remnants of the remnants run away for a few days, avoiding the eyes of such monsters.
Dip your body in mud to remove the smell of blood and flesh, hide yourself in the bushes, hold your breath until you can’t see the demons, and when it rains, swallow the muddy water that has accumulated on the floor. It is to sleep in a jjokjam, praying for cover.
He had already lived a life unrelated to war through Lee Won-hyung’s life, but the habit he had put on his body to live by saying that his 3-year-old habit would go on until he was 80 has not been broken even now.
Being able to approach Leon without waking up from Leon’s senses means that Veronica’s appearance has reached a level enough.
It was unusual because it meant that Veronica tried not to disturb Leon’s sleep, but at the same time, Leon raised awareness.
‘I’ll have to do sensory training in the future as well.’
Currently, Veronica’s status is 3 stars.
It was an incredibly quick achievement for only five months of honing swordsmanship, and it was indeed a talent like a witch of condemnation. It means you can cheat.
“Let’s get ready for training right away.”
With the help of Veronica, Leon came out of the dormitory after washing face and changing clothes.
It was good to take Veronica as Leon’s direct maid and bring her to the academy, but Tina Maple, who taught Leon swordsmanship, and Isaac, who taught Veronica swordsmanship, were also protecting Riel at the villa in the royal capital, so they could teach and learn swordsmanship from each other. it had no choice but to
Standing in the academy’s gymnasium, Leon raised his Auror to his training wooden sword.
Meanwhile, Leon had already reached a point where he could unleash a six-star aura without the help of a hatchling.
Until now, it was a fake state created by manipulating the nervous system with hatching thunderbolts, but now we have become accustomed to the flow of Aurors and do not need hatching thunderbolts.
“… as always sorry.”
“Well? what?”
“I wanted to be of help to the owner, but I always seem to be in debt.”
Veronica’s face looked depressed.
Horses learn swordsmanship from each other, but Leon has 6 stars and Veronica has 3 stars, and only Leon unilaterally teaches Veronica.
Still, Veronica, who was watching him from Leon’s side, knew how busy Leon was.
Even though she couldn’t help Leon as a maid, it felt like she was wasting Leon’s time, and regret was building up in her heart.
“Don’t worry about that. In the beginning, I made you a maid to keep you by my side, but I didn’t bring you here to be an ordinary maid.”
Moreover, no matter how different the level was, it was not that Leon didn’t have much to learn from Veronica.
“Then attack first.”
At Leon’s words, Veronica held up her training sword and closed her eyes and took a breath.
I’m sorry for taking the master’s time, and I wanted to focus on training properly.
Above all, if you are truly sorry for taking Leon’s time, using that time as effectively as possible would be a way to repay Leon’s sincerity.
And as soon as she opened her eyes again, Veronica rushed towards Leon like a flash of light.
The Auror Breathing method she learned was obviously a popular martial art that Isaac taught.
It was a martial art distributed to commoners to train soldiers of 5 stars or less in the Philo Kingdom, which needed strong troops due to the attack of the demon realm.
Even if it was wrong, they thought that the swords of commoners who learned martial arts could be aimed at nobles rather than demons, so they deliberately distributed flawed martial arts.
Of course, it can be said that Isaac, who reached the level of 9 stars, belongs to the class of geniuses.
But Veronica was a genius more than that Isaac.
Reached the level of 3 stars in just 30 minutes, and at the time when 1 hour passed, Leon, who showed the level of 6 stars, was just a genius outside of the standard. The fact that it reached the level of 3 stars means that it is a fraudulent talent.
However, Veronica’s talent, as Leon said, was not such a learning ability.
Whoops! Whoops!
Flames erupted from Veronica’s whole body, and the moment the training wooden sword collided with Leon’s sword, it exploded.
Again, the auror breathing method that Veronica learned was a martial art for training soldiers and had flaws.
That flame is the power that granted the name of condemnation to the witch of condemnation.
Auror who burns magic.
In this world, condemnation is a symbol of fire, and the meanings of ‘wrath to immortalize all sins’ and ‘condemnation’ appearing in fire magic spells refer to Ashlord, the god of fire.
Of the four elements, energy, the divine power that governs fire.
That is, the blessing of the Fire God.
If Veronica was an ordinary girl, it would not be strange to be enshrined as a saint in the Temple of Fire, but unfortunately Veronica was not an ordinary girl.
She was a half-demon, and she was taken as a test subject by a wizard, and her body was full of scars from numerous experiments.
It’s too ugly to be considered a saint.
Moreover, her anger towards the wizard burned like a flame that could never be quenched, and it was her attitude that defined her as a witch.
Leon raised his 3-star aura to balance Veronica, but Leon was pushed back by her aura.
A difference appeared in Leon’s eyes.
Leon’s martial arts are not ordinary martial arts.
The breath of the sun, which is known only to be able to handle the forest fairies, granted Leon the blessing of the sun god, and compared to the normal breathing method, he was able to demonstrate more powerful physical abilities with the same amount of aura.
Nevertheless, Leon’s push back meant that Veronica’s aura wasn’t just about setting fire.
Having sharpened his senses, Leon soon realized that the aura he had raised on his sword decreased every time he encountered Veronica’s aura.
No, it was being absorbed.
Like firewood added to it, Leon’s aura was sucked into Veronica’s aura and made the fire even bigger.
‘Isn’t it just the magic that burns?’
Little by little, Leon was able to understand Veronica’s abilities.
It was the same principle as the mana potion.
A type of ability that increases one’s own power by generating an uncharged static electricity in one’s own aura, drawing in surrounding auras and magical power.
However, if the mana potion was an artificial ability created by drugs, Veronica was only born with it.
However, it seems that his power has not yet reached a level enough because he lacks understanding of his abilities.
If Leon can properly understand that ability, it might be possible for Leon to use Veronica’s ability as well.
‘But first of all…’
The urgent task is to subdue Veronica in front of her.
Of course, if Leon uses a 4-star aura or uses an equivalent level of magical power, it is easy to subdue Veronica.
But Leon’s pride did not allow it.
Although Veronica is a tree that will grow into a witch of condemnation in the future, isn’t she just a girl who has only trained swordsmanship for 5 months?
“Fire on fire.”
Leon remembered the elixir he had once taken, cheonhwagwa.
It is said that the elixir gives the user the talent of heaven painting.
Leon concentrated all his mental power and advanced Leon’s magical resonance hit-up one step further.
If the existing hit-up was to generate heat energy by generating gravitational radiation with gravitational waves generated using graviton, this was a powerful magic resonance comparable to Arya’s magic resonance ‘Big Freeze’.
If you name it, yes.
It should be called Big Crunch.
If Big Freeze is a thermodynamic end state caused by negative atmospheric pressure, Big Crunch is an end state in which all matter eventually collapses into a single point by gravity.
Leon maximized the body strengthening ability of Breath of the Sun, and widened the distance by removing Veronica’s sword with all his might.
At that moment, Leon gathered all the auras and brought them to the tip of the sword.
Graviton, the source of gravity, does not emit gravitational waves, but collects them into a local space to meet the Chandrasekhar limit and form a strong magnetic field.
At this time, what happens in the aurora is similar to the phenomenon that the sun, which has consumed all its energy and died, can no longer overcome gravity and collapses into a white dwarf.
Aurors the size of an adult male are concentrated in a lump of light the size of an eyeball.
However, the gravity acting here is artificially generated by Leon.
Break that pole of gravity.
When a white dwarf star makes a way for a dying white dwarf trapped in gravity, electrons that have reached the Chandrasekhar limit repel each other and release ion particles compressed into a plasma state at high speed.
It is the resurrection of a white dwarf, which is said to be the death of a star.
In other words, it is a phenomenon similar to a new nova appearing in the night sky.
Even so, there was a limit to the power that could be caused by a three-star aura, but it was nevertheless a power that Veronica could never withstand.
Quang!
Veronica, wielding her sword against the plasma emitted from Leon’s sword, had no choice but to feel eerie.
Eventually, she stopped walking towards Leon and looked at her sword.
Although it was a wooden training sword, it was still a weapon that had been fortified with an auror, but the blade part had completely disappeared from the cross guard.
“After all, such a person is no match for the master.”
Veronica, who knew better than anyone else that Leon only used 3-star Aurors in Dalian, could not help but sigh and admit it.
The fact that no matter how much he flies and runs, he is in Leon’s palm.
Still, the reason a smile appears on her face is probably because he is Veronica’s owner.
