: âAny means and methods.â
Unlike Clvigâs sympathy for Lee Han and trying to subdue him moderately, Lee Han was 100% sincere.
In fact, if a freshman didnât show his sincerity to a high-ranking fantasy wizard, that was a madman.
Enhancing magic cast as much as possible before the duel begins.
The strengthening magic raised Lee Hanâs trained physical abilities even more explosively.
Seeing the apprentice running fast, the skeleton headmaster thought to himself.
âOops. Do I have to go that far?â
It wasnât a foul to cast magic like that before the duel.
Moreover, Lee Han is a freshman and his opponent is a well-known wizard.
There was no one to criticize for something like that.
Itâs because he looks a little out of his face and looks awkward.
The skeleton headmaster looked a little pathetic.
I would have won if I just foughtâ¦
âThatâs not dignified.â
Lee Han ran ahead without even thinking that the skeleton headmaster was having such an unlucky idea.
âWe have to stick close!â
Unlike Headmaster Skeletonâs conviction that âeven if you fight with your eyes closed, you will winâ, Lee Han was naturally unsure.
Basically, I thought that if I hit even one opponentâs magic, it would be the end.
Iâve shown resistance to magic and poison a few times so far, but isnât that a 100% sure guarantee?
As long as the opponentâs skill is skill, unlike before, he was able to defeat Lee Han in one shot.
Whatâs the most likely way to deal with such a mage?
It was to stick as close as possible to not use magic.
widely!
Lee Han took out an iron ball from his sleeve. Then he threw it to Clive.
Culvik, who was already startled by Lee Hanâs movements, was once again surprised by the flying iron orb tearing through the air.
Although he had the ability to lightly block simple projectilesâ¦
â¦the iron beads flew faster than Klebig expected.
âKuk!â
Klevic stopped casting the spell he was reciting and lowered his stance. An iron ball passed over his head.
It was a very brief moment, but it was enough. After narrowing the distance, Lee Han immediately grabbed Clvic by the collar and knocked him over.
bang!
Then he bent his arms back and held him down. Klevikâs staff flew to the side.
âI lost⦠I lost!â
The illusion wizards were surprised by Clvicâs declaration of defeat.
That freshmanâs movements far exceeded expectations.
I never thought that a mere first-year student could move so agile and fast!
âThatâs what His Excellency Gonadaltes was aiming forâ¦!â
âShit. You exploited our loophole. I never thought you would bring a student from a knight family.â
âindeed. If you donât know about an attack like that in advance, itâs not easy to respond right away. Did you aim for that?â
If he had defeated a first year student with the same magic, the shock would have been immeasurable.
However, when he was defeated by an unexpected loophole like that, a slightly different reaction came out.
-Ah, that boy is so admirable at such a young age!
âNo, you idiotsâ¦!â
The gossips of the fantasy wizards shocked the Headmaster Skeleton.
There was no way he came here to win with a surprise trick like that.
Iâm here to show you that fantasy magic is ruthlessly ignored in front of first year studentsâ¦
but it wonât work. Close combat is prohibited.
âyes!?â
Lee Han was shocked.
Prohibition of close combatâ¦
âIsnât that too much?â
not too much itâs because you donât know
âIf you want me to lose, you can just be honest.â
Isnât it!?
When the disciple he brought grunted, the skeleton headmaster was doubly astounded.
This poor disciple was still unsure of his abilities.
You can just block it with your body!
âyes. You must be.â
â¦â¦
Whether or not the headmaster of the skeleton was staring at him, Lee Han was lost in thought.
Prohibiting close combatâ¦
âItâs getting really difficult.â
Like a curse, illusion magic was quick to cast and hard to avoid.
If you have learned the related defense magic, the difficulty of blocking it will drop significantly, but Lee Han is still in the first year. I couldnât learn such defensive magic.
No matter how quickly Lee Han casts magic and attacks, if he gets hit by the opponentâs magic even onceâ¦
âHis Excellency Gonadaltes. itâs okay!â
âYou donât have to do that. Please allow that first year student to engage in close combat!â
Rather, it was the fantasy wizards who helped Lee Han.
The fantasy wizards were furious at the sight of Gonadaltes persecuting first-year students and ignoring them.
No matter how suddenly I lost, I had no intention of winning by giving a first-year student such a penalty.
âeveryoneâ¦!â
Lee Han cast a slightly moved gaze.
It was clear that the wizards under him had good personalities, just as Ogonin had a good reputation even though he lacked in skills.
Of course, from the skeleton headmasterâs point of view, it was crazy.
Now, who sympathizes with who⦠Even if close combat is banned, you guys canât win!?
âEven so, there is no need to ban it! It goes against our pride.â
Headmaster Skeleton had to resist the urge to block the illusion wizardâs muzzle with magic.
Lee Han put on a relieved expression. Anyone could see that he was ready to jump out and engage in close combat.
âI am Doibach. I wish you well. Of course, it doesnât matter if you try close combat!â
âPlease take good care of me.â
The attitude of the new wizard, Doibach, was polite and his gaze was respectful.
They said it was a surprise attack and they were lucky, but didnât they beat Klbig anyway?
It was a great thing that a freshman did such a thing.
Doibach promised.
âAs a magician who has trained in fantasy magic and as someone who has received the teachings of Ogonin-sama, I will fight head-on with that first year studentâs specialty and win fair and square!â
Youâre going crazy, reallyâ¦
The Headmaster Skeleton muttered, but no one listened.
* * *
âItâs a waste!â
âAwesome!â
âI never thought it would be like thatâ¦!â
After that, Lee Han defeated three more people.
Doibach tried to cast illusion magic, which has the shortest casting speed, but it was narrowly delayed when Lee Han approached him quickly and interrupted his concentration with .
As a way to deal with warriors, Zelkev spread a labyrinth of fantasy magic around him and tried to block the approach, but he was half a step too late.
Bonbondoâ¦
You fantasy wizards donât practice dueling so much that their casting speed is so slow!?
Skeleton Headmaster, who thought that at least one person would bet before Lee Han approached, exploded.
Of course, dueling was not a necessary skill for wizards, and there are fewer wizards who specialize in magic combat like Professor Voladi or Headmaster Skeleton, but isnât this too much!
âThat is correct. Your Excellency Gonadaltes.â
âI am ashamed. I never thought I would lose to a first year student like this.â
âI respect your skills. What a great skill. Donât be discouraged just because you come from a family of knights. Mastering magic has nothing to do with family.â
âyes? Sleepâ¦â
âIf youâre at your level, youâll soon stand out in the Imperial dueling world. Iâm looking forward to it.â
The fantasy wizards readily acknowledged it.
It was an unfortunate defeat, but they werenât shameless enough to admit it.
Isnât the opponent even a first year student?
No matter how you lost, it was an honor to respect and praise your opponentâs skills.
âthank you.â
âIn the future, you will meet many wizards with a faster casting speed than us, but if you continue to sharpen your speed, it will be difficult to find an opponent for you.â
A heartwarming scene of people acknowledging their shortcomings and meekly praising a first-year student with outstanding talent.
It could be said to be the most ideal sight when different wizards met.
Clvig wondered if Gonadaltes might have brought a first-year student for this purpose.
In order to realize the shortcomings of the fantasy wizards themselves, a first-year student with such a special abilityâ¦
insignificant idiotsâ¦
â¦isnât it?
done. Ogonin. letâs face each other Iâm all excited.
At the words of the headmaster skeleton, Ogonin looked up and nodded.
From the point of view of Ogonin, the duel just went too strangely.
* * *
Give this nerdy disciple a proper explanation. Even if I told you, you wouldnât believe it.
âUm⦠so. You have quite strong anti-magic power.â
Pretty?
ââ¦very strong.â
very?
ââ¦how about just what you say?â
Is the festival interrupter, firecracker destroyer, or artifact thief giving me orders? what the. What the world is about to becomeâ¦
Ogonin endured even if it was dirty and petty. because he was wrong
âThis anti-magic effect works in many directions⦠but especially in the case of fantasy magic that directly applies pure magical power to the mind, it tends to be particularly strongly influenced by the anti-magic power.â
Lee Han could understand Ogoninâs detailed explanation.
âSo last time?â
ââ¦you can say that. In particular, fantasy magic that is applied directly will not work well if it is really dizzy.â
âaha. Then the headmaster wasnât exaggerating when he said it was fine.â
beside me
âThat⦠you can say that.â
Lee Han was interested in Ogoninâs guarantee.
I would never have thought that what the skeleton headmaster said was really true.
âIt wasnât a trick to harass me.â
Of course, even if he believed the headmasterâs words, Lee Han would have fought the same way.
Becauseâ¦
âWhy canât I avoid it?â
I can avoid it, so whatâs the point? Even if it was a 0.0001% chance, there was no need to take the risk.
âthank you. Thanks for letting me know.â
take out that book
âyes?â
A book written by Ogonin.
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han pulled out a book with a confused expression on his face.
It was a book written by Ogonin in his youth, bought at a bookstore.
Seeing that, Ogonin looked at the Headmaster Skeleton in amazement.
He was a sincere wizard in many ways when it came to bullying others.
What do you think?
âOf course, since I wrote it when I was young, the immature partsâ¦â
âIt seems like a good book.â
Lee Han answered as if he were asking himself.
The misunderstanding was resolved, but Ogonin did not feel like an archmage.
To be honest, if you were a great wizard, wouldnât it be possible to break through magic and cast magic?
Considering those skills, this book was well written.
Ogonin threw a grateful glance at Lee Hanâs unexpected reaction.
Of course, the skeleton headmaster was not convinced.
that is?! Compare with my book. it will look different
âYes, it is true that the principalâs book is better, but⦠Each book has its own value, so itâs not a bad book just because itâs relatively behind.â
Headmaster Skeleton was slow to react as he couldnât decide whether to be pleased with Lee Hanâs flattery or angry at his interruption.
âThank you!â
Ogonin was genuinely moved.
Originally, it was Ogonin who had been praised and appreciated by many wizards. Now that Iâm being praised by a young wizard, Iâm not impressed.
However, being praised by the pupil in front of the headmaster of the mad skull made Ogoninâs dull heart beat.
âThis is also a fate, but if itâs okay, can I teach you something?â
â!â
Lee Han paused and turned his gaze to the skeleton headmaster.
Misunderstanding the meaning, the headmaster grunted and replied.
let it learn Itâs rare to have a chance to learn directly from a mage like Ogonin. Itâs a good opportunity.
âI meant that I had to learn it.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lee Han thought to himself.
There was Professor Kirmin Ku in the magic school and there was a wizard like Baldororn outside the magic school, but I wanted to.
âBut I guess Iâll have to do my best to learn manners.â
âthank you.â
