Chapter 538

“Music Magic?”

Professor Boladi looked at Lee Han and asked.

It was an expressionless face, but to my surprise, I felt a calm shock inside.

It was as if he was saying, ‘What did I do wrong to rebel like this for you to learn such rubbish magic?’

A similar thing happened in the tower of the blue dragon.

-Guinan Island! That… What is that blood! You can’t believe that we banned card games…?

Of course, it was jam, not blood, that Gainando was covered in, but the emotions shown by his friends and Professor Boladi were similar.

“professor. I can explain.”

Lee Han spoke as quickly as possible.

Just as Gainando explained that it was jam, not blood, to avoid being taken to the punishment room, Lee Han had to explain as quickly as possible to prevent being attacked by Professor Voladi.

“Music magic won’t help much.”

“…That’s actually a blind spot!”

Lee Han spoke of today’s events in as much detail and exaggeration as possible.

A sense of desperation came over Lee Han that he could be attacked if he could not properly convince him of the benefits of music magic.

At the lengthy explanation, Ipadur looked at Lee Han with moved eyes.

‘To be so interested in the magic of music…’

The Wardanaz family was known for not being interested in the arts like music, but this boy was certainly different.

Ifadur vowed to do everything in his power to help the boy from the Wodanaz family with his passion for music.

Other famous musicians and minstrels of the Empire would be interested and help if they heard that the boy of House Wardanaz was so passionate about music.

“…so that’s how it was!”

“Right.”

Professor Voladi nodded in agreement.

‘Is it okay?’

“Then can’t we just learn the language?”

‘That’s too bad.’

Lee Han blamed himself for being arrogant who thought it had just ended.

Remnants of arrogance that he shouldn’t have from Einrogard still remained in his heart.

“The headmaster said that the word magic would take as long as this.”

Lee Han spread a finger. Professor Voladi said, not surprised.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Of course, the magic of the spirit of the tongue can take close to a thousand years if properly dug up.”

“……”

Lee Han was astonished at the addition of one zero.

The skeleton headmaster secretly tried to trick Lee Han.

“But if you can put magic into words, the story will be different. It’s not a proper language magic, but a simplified form specialized for battle…”

“That’s why I tried to learn music magic!”

Lee Han felt a sense of crisis and cut off Professor Boladi.

“I was trying to overcome the limitations of word magic with music magic!”

“hmm.”

Professor Voladi was speechless.

Lee Han was extremely nervous because he had no idea what the other person was thinking. A baby basilisk in his sleeve hissed.

‘Be patient. You lose.’

Unfortunately, even if the baby basilisk pounced on Professor Voladi, it didn’t look like he would win. I

think it will be difficult even if I become an adult…

“I still think the language magic is a better choice, but I won’t stop the challenge.”

A good teacher, in Professor Voladi’s opinion, was one who supported what the student wanted as much as possible.

He was still skeptical about music magic, but he had no intention of stopping his pupil from trying it.

Could there be a new magic that the professor himself doesn’t know about?

“thank you. professor. I will do my best to repay your trust.”

“i get it. Did you rest well outside?”

“yes. Enjoyed.”

An ordinary student would have finished here, but Lee Han, a professional student, added a word.

“But even during that time, I was nervous because I remembered the magic I had to practice.”

Ipadur admired again, unaware of Lee Han’s intentions.

There is such a sincere genius in the world!

“Is it?”

“yes.”

“hmm.”

“…?”

When Professor Voladi briefly checked the time, Lee Han felt ominous.

Come to think of it, Professor Boladi was not an ordinary professor, but a professional professor.

“There is still time until bedtime, so I will help you practice.”

“……”

Lee Han, who looked down on the professional professor, bit his lip.

“By the way, having dinner with Ipadur-nim…”

“No no. it’s okay. Wodanaz student. Never mind this old man and focus on your magic. Thank you so much for helping me today.”

‘Are bards all bastards?’

Lee Han seemed to understand why the Wodanaz family didn’t show much interest in music.

* * *

Professor Voladi was interested in every school of magic Lee Han studied, but the most engrossing thing recently was the change in the form of the lightning element.

The lightning element belonged to a very unusual axis among the elements.

Even its uncontrollable destructive power and irregular form.

But conversely, if you can control such a lightning element as easily as a water element…

“You’ll have an advantage in battle.”

As Professor Voladi spun the spear of lightning, the baby basilisk let out a cry.

It was clear that he no longer had the confidence to defeat that wizard.

“By the way, Professor. Is there a need to even use elemental lightning in normal person-to-person combat?”

Even the water element, which is evaluated as having relatively low destructive power right now, could be destructive if applied well.

If you look at Eumidihus, doesn’t he do all kinds of strange things with water elemental magic, from steam explosions to body fluid control?

“Good question. Lightning magic, which usually uses form change, is useful against powerful wizards.”

Professor Voladi explained calmly.

Among the mages, those skilled in defensive magic were able to block all of Yihan’s water elemental magic and other projectile magic.

At that time, a strategy that worked surprisingly well was this kind of close combat.

In addition, the lightning element was not a common magic, so it was even more difficult to prepare.

‘…usually enough to block all of them, he’s a mage several times higher than me, so should I deal with him?’

Isn’t that what professors have to deal with?

Lee Han had such a question, but he endured it quietly.

“Take it.”

The professor held out a heavy silver ingot.

Lee Han exclaimed in surprise at the unexpected gift.

“thank you!! I will really save it and use it well!”

“…?”

Professor Boladi looked at Lee Han, wanting to say something.

Lee Han was perplexed, wondering if he had misunderstood something.

“I need to use it for shape change, but I don’t think I need to save it.”

“ah.”

Lee Han understood the meaning of the professor and felt embarrassed.

It was really difficult to take the shape of lightning purely out of nothing.

To have to tame the thunderbolt with the will of a wizard.

However, pure silver had a hard form and was relatively friendly to lightning.

Getting used to changing the shape of the silver in which the lightning resided also helped to change the shape of the lightning itself.

“thank you. But where did you get this silver?”

“In the principal’s room.”

“……”

Lee Han didn’t ask if he borrowed or stole it. It wasn’t anything good to hear.

* * *

Gripping Jijijik!

‘pain!’

Lee Han thought that when he saw the lightning bolt to the floor.

It wasn’t because magic failed.

The magic practice itself was going well.

It’s just that each time it fails, the silver evaporates little by little.

Kwajik!

Silver, which had been transformed into a spear, could not withstand the force of the lightning and twisted and cracked, losing its shape.

The power of the condensed lightning is so strong that if you make even the slightest mistake, even hard metal can’t stand it, and it changes arbitrarily.

In the process, it evaporates…

When Lee Han was visibly distressed, Professor Voladi spoke to him.

“I am doing well now. Because it maintains its shape change.”

“thank you.”

Lee Han stood up with a bitter expression.

I already felt my heart break when I thought of how much silver would be consumed before this magic was completed.

As the sky gradually darkened and it was time to go in, Professor Voladi checked his pocket watch and said,

“really. Can the lecture start a little early tomorrow?”

“How much?”

“About two hours.”

“……”

The lecture is scheduled at 9:00 am on Monday, but starting 2 hours earlier was never ‘a little bit’.

But Lee Han was a professional student.

‘Let’s assume it ends 2 hours early.’

“haha. Of course it’s possible. But for what? Do you have anything prepared?”

“no. I had to meet the giants.”

“……”

* * *

– Human Wizard! He’s a human wizard!

– Nice to meet you!

Early moning.

As the end of the second semester was approaching, the days were getting colder.

To the extent that the cold permeated to the bone unless a spell was cast over the coat.

Lee Han exhaled and greeted the giants.

“Nice to meet you. everyone.”

– I want to see magic. Magic!

“yes?”

Lee Han wondered what kind of magic he should use.

If it’s to satisfy the giants, wouldn’t it be acceptable to blow a water octane at Professor Voladi?

-That’s it. that!

The giant took a thick wooden bowl and pounded it with a spoon.

“…It was about cooking.”

The smartest giant, Ikrusha, pushed aside the giants gathered with high expectations.

– Nice to meet you all. Professor Bagreg. How are you?

“How are you? Thank you.”

-Since it’s the final exam period soon, all the professors must be busy. Do you have time to come here?

“It’s okay.”

“……”

Lee Han unconsciously tried to say, ‘I am the only student of the professor,’ but then regained consciousness and endured it.

It was crazy to gossip about the professor in front of others.

“I want to get closer to the giants as soon as the test is coming up. I want to help with work.”

-as you please. Actually, when I first heard the professor’s words, I wondered what he was talking about.

Ikrusha remembered the first time he heard of Professor Voladi’s mad plan to ‘use the power of a giant to test the new students’.

At that time, no matter how much I thought about it, it seemed a bit crazy, so I insisted, ‘Wouldn’t it be better to take the test after getting to know the giant?’

It was because there was nothing good about fighting a young wizard and a giant.

In the future, an archmage with a title like might appear… It’s

hard for an outsider or a wizard to make friends with giants in a short period of time.

However, the boy of the Wodanaz family became friends with the giants faster than expected.

After helping to take care of the sheep and studying cooking, he succeeded in winning the favor of the giants.

In fact, it was to the extent that the giants called Ikurusha and asked about it.

-When will the wizard come?

-I do not know either.

– Go downstairs and ask.

– I asked, but he said he didn’t know.

-Then go down again! go down again!

It was not easy for giants to be likable in such a short period of time, and it was truly surprising.

Now that things had happened, Ikrusha had no choice but to accept Professor Voladi’s plan.

If he had become close enough to him, he would have been qualified to compete with the giants.

-Being close like that…

“It’s only natural.”

Ikrusha nodded as she saw Lee Han being washed away by giants like Professor Voladi.

Lee Han was receiving cheers from the giants, not knowing that he had dug his own grave.

– Long live the Wizard! Long live the wizard!

– Our friend!

“haha. It is thanks to all of you who have looked at me favorably. Thank you always.”
