“Take a good look, Gongja-nim. After you drop out, you won’t even have a chance to see something like this for the rest of your life!”
Logan slightly loosened the bandages that were tightly pressing on his chest, revealing a magic square elaborately drawn on his heart.
The number of magic squares is three.
Secret runes were entered into each magic square, and they flickered beautifully according to the owner’s heartbeat.
“The Secret of the Tsaihak School, Cheryunggang.”
Gertrude Panton raised her left eyebrow and let out a short sigh.
“Looks like you’re thinking of ending it in an instant.”
When Logan put his hand on the magic square and let his magic flow, the magic opened from his fingertips awakened the magic square in the heart and created a glow.
“It’s started, Ging-type combat magic.”
Hubert of the Rofinum School, who was leaning against the doorway number 4 and watching the magic battle, stroked his chin.
“The measure of a Ging-type mage’s proficiency is the speed at which she activates body-enhancing magic… … .”
The magical light that started in Logan’s heart traveled through his blood vessels and spread throughout his body, and soon the magic square that covered his entire body began to emit light.
‘Ging type magic is a risk if the burden on the body is the greatest risk.’
Professor Caroline rested her chin on her clasped hands and looked at Logan curiously.
‘Forcibly augmenting the body’s ability, even the slightest deviation in magical power control can cause bones to dislocate or viscera to rupture… … Indeed, it is the speed and stability that can be counted as the later exponents of the Tchaihak school.’
The power of the Cheryeonggang radiated from Logan’s entire body, and around him, an air current of magical power swirled around him, blowing his hair in a mess.
“I will finish it in 10 seconds.”
A moment’s advance.
Leg strength amplified by magical power dug deep into the marble floor, closing the gap with Lane at once.
“What is that speed?!”
“Are you at the level of martial arts?!”
I’ve already dug one foot away. The front leg lightly kicked out, the waist twisted backward, and the inertia and centrifugal force were put together in one place.
‘I created a wall that confines magic on the surface of the body through the body ryunggang.’
Not to mention defense, even when attacking, this wall of magic immediately explodes at the point of impact, enabling additional hits by magic.
‘Reaction is impossible, it ends with this one shot.’
I was completely caught off guard in an instant. So fast and perfect that I can’t respond to this in that posture where I’m not prepared for anything—
─Ah.
Something stabbed the pit of the stomach for a moment, causing trouble in breathing along with yellowing pain in the eyes.
“——?!”
All the flow of power, inertia, centrifugal force, and recoil that I had concentrated on my whole body, all returned in reverse and the feeling of piercing the lungs.
“Could that be… … ?”
Looking at Logan, who was thrown out of the gap of complete killing and swimming in the air, Professor Owen opened his mouth in a daze.
“Osarius-style stick technique?!”
It was the broom that Lane was holding that everyone’s attention was focused on. Along the rings of the broomstick, magic power flashed black and blue.
‘300 years ago, a bong technique devised by Archmage Rin, who promoted the Osarius school to a member of the Eight Great Schools with an overwhelming feat… … !’
Due to the nature of melee, even wizards need the strength to engage in close combat, so it was established with the help of the warrior Lista, who was said to be proficient in all weapons.
‘How could Ludwig’s successor… … ?’
Professor Caroline had no choice but to raise her eyebrows.
After the Ristar Party’s expedition was over, bongsul using a stone pole became the basic armament of the Osarius school. The horse was the basic armament, and it was the school’s unique skill.
It was both a tribute to Rin and an acknowledgment of its effectiveness.
‘No, is it just an imitation of the Osarius-style bonjutsu?’
However, even if it’s just an imitation, pouring magical energy into an object to make it harden is a proof of tremendous magical control skills.
If it was the way it was, if the body wrapped around the body was hit with a broom for cleaning like that, it would be normal if it was mercilessly broken.
“Whoa… … .”
Recognizing the force in the thrusting stance, Lane skillfully retrieved the broomstick that had been stabbed for a long time and put it over her shoulder.
“and! what, just now?”
“Is it true that Logan bounced off?”
“Eh? What? how?”
In unexpected situations, Logan’s body automatically enters a defensive state. I forcibly turned my body, which was flying in the air, and hit the ground with both feet.
Jijijik–!
Leaving a long trail of soot, the body, which had forced the brakes, was pushed back about five paces before stopping.
‘Just what was it?’
Logan spewed out a large, dizzying breath and quickly touched the area where the blow had just taken place.
‘The walls of the Cheryeong River… … Broken?’
Do you mean that it penetrated exactly where the blood of the Cheryeonggang was located? how? Then, as if he was feeling drowsy, he heard a voice mixed with a yawn.
“weird. It’s been 10 seconds, isn’t it over?”
“… … !”
“It’s no fun bullying promising juniors, so I’ll finish it in 6 seconds. Bite your molars tight.”
* * *
“You want me to bite your molars?”
It’s absurd, with one fluke… … Yes, I admit it. That I was going too easy. It hurts a bit, but I have to use my strength properly.
Quaang——!
When I slammed the ground with my foot, the marble floor of the two squares was not broken and soared into the air with the rebound of the impact.
‘Let’s put a ranged skill as a check!’
Then, pivoting around the heel, he twisted his body and kicked the marble. A pile of stones that broke into pure white and formed a barrage rushed towards Lane.
“It’s coming out in earnest.”
“There’s no way you can beat Logan with a stick!”
And now.
Taking advantage of the gaps in the obstruction of vision with long-distance containment, and holding back firmly with footwork to suffocate… … uh?
‘The feet… … ?’
He tried to step on the advance right away, but Logan was astonished at the power of the earth holding onto his ankles so heavy.
‘what… … ?’
As the marble floor disappeared, the dirt floor, which was exposed, had turned into mud. It wasn’t muddy, it was a quagmire.
“It is said that it is a magic that makes the field even before planting. What was the name? Anyway, it’s a 1-star magic. Pretty useful, right?”
The voice came from far above. It was a mountain of dirt that rose hugely as it collapsed the marble floor. Lane was standing on top of it.
“And this is the magic of creating a temporary breakwater in case of a flood. Two stars.”
The silence that gripped the audience for that moment was loud and heavy. The silence where everyone could only hear each other’s breathing and swallowing saliva.
“What is that magic calculation speed?”
“Two magics at the same time… … ?”
“Remediare type? Did you hide the magic square? where?”
Amidst the commotion, a smile of absurdity hung over Professor Owen’s lips.
‘To raise the ground you’re standing on to reliably block the enemy’s attack without obstructing your view.’
And it did not end there, and even blocked the transfer of the right to attack to the opponent by tying the feet of the opponent who would go on the offensive.
From noble mtl dot com
‘These two magics happened so quickly that the students mistook them for the Remidiere type.’
Professor Caroline also narrowed her eyes.
‘This atmosphere where no one would think that it was done with mental arithmetic, it’s not unreasonable.’
There was something that shocked the audience even more, when Rain raised a broomstick above his head and leaped from the dirt mountain.
“… … ?!”
“… … ?!”
“… … ?!”
My foot was stuck in the mud and the stepping board was incomplete, but I was able to reverse such a sloppy attack and seize the victory.
“That idiot, what are you doing?!”
Krista jumped up from her seat, dumbfounded.
“It’s just a matter of casting a single spell from a distance… … ?!”
Logan clenched his fists.
Squeeze out mana from Jugwa and Danjeon, and concentrate the power of the Cheryeonggang, which had been spread widely, only into the fist of the right hand. The magic power amplified to the limit amplified concentration and lengthened the passage of time.
With these two eyes, it is clearly visible.
The trajectory of the broomstick aiming at the top of the head and flying in a large arc, and beyond that, Rain’s face.
This, now, with all his magic power, he breaks the broom and strikes the face beyond it to put an end to the game.
The power-driven government has moved forward. As it is, it completely smashes the broomstick, passes through the flying splinters of trees, and strikes Lane’s face without difficulty.
“… … ?!”
Yeah, it definitely should have been.
But the fist, for some reason, the body, the fist that came right in front of Rain’s eyes, didn’t move at all.
“And I guess this is magic that breathes life into dead plants for a while. It only takes about 10 seconds, but you can use it like this.”
What is this… … . The source of the problem was the fragments of the broomsticks that had been broken earlier.
Vibrant fragments were woven into sticky stalks, holding Logan’s body tight like a spider’s web.
“As promised, it was finished with three magics. right?”
“Ugh, uh!”
“Okay, then let’s finish it.”
As Lane raised her broomstick, a savage shadow fell over Logan’s face. The tip of the broomstick broken by Logan’s regime was as sharp as an awl.
The fear of the pain that came from being completely incapacitated was enough to make Logan a child.
He closed his eyes tightly and exhaled an unsteady breath. And the sound of death that touches the top of the head, tok.
‘Tok?’
There was no pain, no smell of blood. When I finally mustered up the courage to open my eyes, what I saw was Lane’s back.
“What, what? why don’t you finish? kidding now… … .”
“Why don’t you finish it? It’s over?”
“… … !”
“You don’t have to get hurt by something that’s already been done.”
Rain smiled sadly as he recalled Friede’s teachings.
“If you know how scary it is to be sick, don’t do bad things from now on and live kindly.”
The words that Lane gave with a bitter smile left a strange echo in Logan’s heart for a moment.
I have lived in a place with corporal punishment all my life. If you are weak and immature, you have lived in a world where you will be scolded until the moment you die.
Isn’t it a world where there is no distinction between men and women in the world of magic, and if you don’t become strong, someone will eat you?
– You are a wizard of the Tchaihak school! What can I do if I can’t even do this!
– Such an immature thing! What did you do that is already out of breath!
By the way, Lane was talking.
“Ah, did the magic battle end when the opponent surrendered or was knocked out?”
huh?
Lane tilted her head and immediately thrust the broomstick into Logan’s chest.
The magic power that had been revolving along the tree rings was released like an explosion from the tip of the broom in an instant and attacked Logan. It was a torrent of magical power.
Swept away by the waves of devastating power, Logan rolled several times on the ground, and finally, with his arms and legs spread wide, he fell helplessly and could not stand up.
The fisheyes of the cadets who watched the end of the fight became dumbfounded.
‘What. Didn’t I say you didn’t have to be sick? … ?’
‘Why did you say that? just for fishing… … ?’
‘He wasn’t a degraded Confucius, but a Confucius with personality… … !’
Professor Theon and Lane, who had been watching the situation in awe, yawned and approached.
“Winner, Lane Ludwig!”
Wow, groans from the unbelievable reality welled up here and there.
“Is it true? A low-ranking Confucius blew up Logan, who was a latecomer to Tsai Haku?”
“Did you see it? Those are Gongja’s skills. Wherever you go, bring all the silver coins.”
Gertrude Panton blinked in disbelief, while Christa Warden nodded knowingly.
And manager Joen, who was watching the match with his team members from close by, ran out with tears of emotion.
“Thank you, thank you, Gongja. How should I repay this favor… … .”
Something embarrassing, embarrassing, and unfamiliar… … In short, it was a sight I had often seen. When I was walking around with Lista.
“No, it’s not grace.”
Lane scratched her head in annoyance and shook her head.
“Just make a lot of good magic for local development. So that I have nothing to do.”
What did Rista say at this time? no, let’s not think Because I’m not a Rista.
I don’t have the personality to say “It’s okay” or “I’m glad I was helpful” while smiling brightly. Crucially, like Lista, she doesn’t have the personality or impression of helping people with kindness alone.
It was easier to think and act that way. either to myself or to others.
“If you think about it, we are helping each other. It’s not like being in debt unilaterally. Please don’t make people uncomfortable.”
However, the old archmage’s actions left a stronger impression on the others present.
strong.
Humble.
He seems indifferent but kind.
An existence that seems to embody the life under the spirit world, the first commandment given by the dragon tribe to the nobility of the empire… … Members of the club bowed their heads at the boy’s back as he yawned and left.
– Later, in the world where Rin becomes an adult, there will be abundant forms of life. I hope Rin protects those lives.
