I guessed why Johen’s holy power was cut off.
There was a high possibility that a spirit demon heard it.
“How have you been these days?”
“Yes, like I said before. “I am faithfully spending each day to the best of my ability, following the teachings given by the professor in the past.”
Jochen answered bravely.
A state that seems completely far from Simma.
‘no. You wouldn’t know it from the outside.’
Perhaps Jochen himself is not aware of it.
Because the mind can eat away at your soul without you being aware of it.
‘Cases like this are the most difficult to solve.’
First of all, we decided to see each other again next time and returned to the accommodation.
‘… This episode will be more difficult than I thought.’
Joanna isn’t the only problem.
Brother Ron looks somewhat suspicious.
Duchess Bess.
An unexpected villain-type protagonist from the Magic Department.
Plus Jochen’s slump.
There were layers of difficulties.
‘I don’t know how much the difficulty level of the episode will worsen.’
As I was thinking about various things in my head, the time for the special lecture quickly arrived.
“… That is all.”
Clap clap clap!!
Before I knew it, Ranian’s special lecture had ended.
Because it was a very good lecture, there was thunderous applause from the students.
“Next is Professor Ban’s turn. “Please come up to the stage.”
For this special lecture competition, two people will be paired up to compete in a lecture evaluation tournament.
I will immediately take over the baton and lecture after Ranian.
“We will see how great it is. What kind of lecture did you prepare?”
The topic of the special lecture was freedom.
Ranian, as a war mage, gave a lecture on ＜How to use combat magic on the battlefield＞.
What kind of lecture did I prepare?
“Specifically?”
“I beg your pardon?”
“I haven’t made any preparations. “I don’t think it’s necessary.”
“under! “What nonsense?”
Ranian was angry, but it was true.
Of course, that doesn’t mean I didn’t know how to prepare for the actual stage.
Although I had a lot of things going on in my head, it was also important to deliver a great special lecture.
However, the reason I didn’t prepare very hard was because, as I just said to him, I didn’t think it would be necessary.
“Don’t worry. “Today you will experience an awe that you will never forget.”
“under?!”
I looked away.
A huge number of students were gathered in the auditorium.
As expected from an elite amethyst, the attendance rate for special lectures is almost over 90%?
Of course, not everyone came together with a pure passion for learning.
Most people looked at me with disdain, waiting to see what the content of my lecture would be like.
‘I need to change that perspective too.’
There happened to be a good offering.
“Do you remember what you just said, the best education is practical?”
“of course. This is the lesson of our Sapphire Academy.”
“Then, please cooperate in becoming a subject of my course ＜How a low-level wizard can overpower a high-level wizard＞.”
“!!”
The room was agitated after hearing the topic of my lecture.
The professor in charge of Kunt’s special lecture said.
“Professor Ban, what is the story?”
“Yes, I conducted a real battle against Professor Ranian over there and toyed with a high-level wizard… No, I will lecture you on how to overpower.”
“under!! dare! For me, a War Mage? “I’ll show you how hot it is!”
Flash!
Ranian held up a sword staff and performed magic.
As a war mage, it was a powerful and sharp attack spell compared to the same level.
but.
Faaah! Pow!
“Gagging?!”
Grumble.
Blood flowed from Ranian’s nose, which had been hit hard by my magic missile.
“Is it only this much?”
“!!”
“Let’s try to do it a little more properly. “It wouldn’t be a good lecture if I unilaterally trampled on you.”
The hall fell into a dead silence.
Yes.
The reason I didn’t prepare for the lecture was because of Lanian.
That guy is too insignificant for me to pay any attention to.
I have also grown quite a bit now.
The Black Flame Dragon snapped his finger at the guy.
“What are you doing? The first topic is to teach you how to hit a high-level wizard in the back, so hurry up and attack him.”
“this guy!!!”
After that!
The lecture continued, and the room was filled with endless astonishment.
hmm.
I felt a little sorry for Ranian, but it must have been a useful lecture for him as well.
It would have been helpful in treating hot-bloodedness.

Meanwhile, the distance of truth.
It was crowded with people like Dottegi Market.
“Oh, don’t push me!”
“Get your head out of there! “You can’t see our VL’s handwriting clearly!”
“Oh, that’s Lv. 8 Are these problems raised by Archmage VL?”
“Huh. A great wizard! VL is an unknown Lv. 9 You are an ascendant!”
The problems raised by the class enthused the entire academic city.
Originally, it wasn’t this kind of reaction, but it was because of a comment on the problem made by one person last night.
‘Eh. I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but he gave such a crappy question.’
It was the highest praise for those who are on the streets of truth.
Especially if the person who made that review is ‘King Genius’, the president of Amethyst Academy whose identity is hidden.
“Who on earth does VL stand for?”
“Couldn’t L be an abbreviation for Legend?”
“Oh, no way. “Would a wizard of that level have used such a childish nickname?”
“Why isn’t the president also King Genius?”
“The president is naturally an eccentric person. “No one among high-ranking wizards uses the nickname ‘Legend’ in a childish way.”
“Maybe it’s not a semi-legend?”
In an instant, the street of truth became quiet.
Even for a moment.
“hahahaha! “What kind of joke?”
“Anti-legend? “Isn’t that a nickname that reporters came up with to make fun of Banregi?”
“If Banregi is the one who asked this question, I will give up my professorship right now.”
A natural reaction.
However, Professor Lapel, the person who first raised the anti-legend suspicion, could not shake off the suspicion.
‘it is not so. Professor Ban is not someone who can be ignored like that.’
Rappel is a junior professor.
I was forced to attend today’s class because I was forced to attend a special lecture against my will, and I was astonished to no end.
More than anything.
‘Strange. Why does it seem like the technique that Professor Ban showed during his lecture today overlaps with the solution to this problem?’
It’s not accurate.
The technique that Ban showed today was so advanced that it was difficult to recognize even though it was only level 1 or 2.
Still, when I applied Ban’s technique, I felt like I could vaguely see the answers to those problems.
‘As if it gave a hint to solve the problem.’
Above all, the nickname VL.
It was completely blatant.
It’s so blatant that it’s actually difficult to match.
‘Is Professor Ban’s next lecture a showdown with Duchess Bess? If you take that course, you might find the answer. I must listen to it.’
Meanwhile.
There was someone nearby who had similar thoughts.
Rooftop above a building in an alley on the Street of Truth.
There was an old man with an eccentric look.
King Genius.
No, Carl Gritten.
He was the president of Amethyst Academy.
He is an old friend… No, I was thinking about a story the enemy had told me not long ago.
-Wow, a huge monster professor has come to our Rubines. You wipe your neck and wait. Our class legend professor will soon bring you Amethyst Academy’s Sannim professors to their knees!
“… “A semi-legend?”
Carl Gritten frowned.
It’s like he can’t admit it.
“I guess I’ll have to take the special lecture tomorrow myself.”
* * *
Late at night.
I left the dorm.
‘First, I need to meet Joanna and find out exactly what condition she is in.’
I didn’t get the chance because I was living in a dormitory, but I heard that Joanna was out and about every night recently.
For your reference, this is the information Terne asked about. Tern is a very popular guy, so he made a lot of friends in just a few days.
‘Where do you go every night? ‘You haven’t fallen into some strange temptation, have you?’
Joanna usually ‘falls behind’ if left alone, but depending on the progression route, she sometimes ‘falls’ and becomes a villain.
The worst case scenario is selling your soul to the devil.
The blackened Joanna becomes a super-powerful villain.
From Noble mtl dot com
‘That won’t be the case yet.’
While I was hiding, I saw Joanna sneaking out.
‘Why does he look like that?’
You can’t see the details because the hat is pressed down too deep, but the face is half cut.
He looked around nervously and walked quickly.
‘It’s suspicious. Let’s follow.’
However, the moment I saw Joanna’s destination, I stopped in my tracks.
It was a mansion.
It is written as the famous magic family, the Klein Dukes.
“My beloved daughter. “You worked hard to come today.”
“Oh, no, mother.”
Duchess Bess hugged Joanna tightly.
It looked truly friendly.
If it weren’t for Joanna’s trembling fingertips while being held by her mother.
“Shall we go inside? “I specially brought you the pie that my beloved daughter loves.”
“Thank you, Mom.”
Joanna disappeared into the mansion with Duchess Bess.
I was confused for a moment and looked at where the two were.
‘What should I do?’
It was difficult to just intervene.
Because they were mother and daughter.
‘It’s not easy to get into the mansion.’
Security was as tight as possible.
It was wise not to overdo it here.
but.
‘The expression revealed when the hat was taken off earlier.’
Joanna was trembling in her mother’s arms.
Sick of fear.
* * *
Pow! Wow!
The bowl with the pie on it flew into Joanna’s forehead and shattered.
Duchess Bess was next to confirm the ‘assignment’.
“Are we just not able to properly solve this one problem? “How much I love you.”
“I’m sorry, Mom. Because I don’t have enough time after academy classes. No, I did everything wrong. please forgive me.”
Blood flowed from her forehead, but Joanna didn’t even think about wiping it, so she knelt down on the floor and prayed.
She is accustomed to her mother’s corporal punishment from a young age.
However, recently it has become unbearable. It went far beyond the level of corporal punishment.
“I’ll definitely do better next time.”
“When next time? Do you know how many times this is?”
Clink!
This time it was a glass ashtray.
Fortunately, I avoided the head and threw it, but I couldn’t feel relieved.
The more angry you become, the more severe corporal punishment you will receive without hesitation.
‘You can’t cry. ‘You have to endure it.’
Joanna was about to burst into tears, but desperately held them back.
Tears only make my mother more angry.
‘I should have done better.’
The reason my mother became like this was because she lost her senior position.
Now Joanna has been pushed out of 10th place.
“sorry. I will definitely do well. I will also bring back the chief. please. please. Please believe me.”
“ha. Joanna, my beloved daughter. “You know I’m doing all this for you, right?”
Joanna’s eyes were filled with fear.
My mother wasn’t angry.
Whenever he said something like that, something even more terrible would inevitably follow.
