Episode 651
âWow, what a friendly town!â
Priestess Siana admired.
The other priests of the church were surprised as if they agreed.
It was rare for villagers to care so much for travelers from outside.
âI think it would be great to build a temple here.â
âI agree. Priestess Cyana.â
It is said that wherever you are, you must spread your faith equally, but if the village is a warm and kind place, you will be a little more happy.
-The thief ran away!!
-catch!! If you canât catch it within today, someone from the family will come!!
â These people! Everyone come out quickly! The priests are out! You have to catch them before they come in! Everyone in the empire wants to be known as a town you shouldnât travel to!
â Why today! There are many peaceful days too!
ââ¦??!â

For juniors who continue to complain about not being able to do it, Alcicle started explaining the basics of time magic.
It wasnât his specialty, but as it was a notorious magic, he knew it to some extent.
âWardanaz. Any magic starts with detection or recognition.â
âyes.â
Lee Han nodded.
New wizards always dreamed of dropping meteorites with a single finger and stunning professors or even enemies with a single whistle, but in fact, that was a high level that even the most talented wizards could not achieve.
Magic always started with something ordinary and basic.
If itâs elemental magic, it starts with feeling the elements.
If itâs illusion magic, it starts with seeing illusions.
If itâs healing magic, from recognizing the disease.
Likewise, space-time magic began with detection or recognition.
â or . In fact, there are cases where even magicians who do not explore space-time magic are quite familiar with these two magics. Itâs useful.â
âyouâre right. I am also learning .â
ââ¦â¦â
Alcicle looked at Lee Han in amazement.
It was not a story that a student who had just finished the first year asked to agree to.
âHave you mastered ? What happened?â
, which plays the role of accurately entering the space near the wizard in your head, was a 1st-circle magic, but it was more difficult than most 2nd-circle magic.
Occasionally, there was a magic of a monstrous degree of difficulty that jumped over the circle like this.
Of course, this kind of magic was not learned together when learning the 1st circle, but when learning the 3rd circleâ¦
âA senior taught it to me?â
âI donât know who it is, but I think itâs better not to deal with someone like that.â
Alcicle hated it.
In order to escape, the Moradi familyâs blaster, who had no choice but to teach Lee Han , suddenly became treated as a crazy senior.
Even though Lee Han asked me to teach him first!
âno way. Not a bad person.â
âGonadaltes-sama is not a bad person either.â
âIsnât that just bad?â
âIf you know , the explanation will be easier. is also in a similar series.â
, which identifies which objects are located near you and the exact distance between them, starts with battle mages who have a lot of work to deal with fast enemies and adventurers who explore ruins enchanted with space magic. It was a useful magic to the field.
was similar.
When this magic was cast, the passing time in seconds, minutes, and hours could be accurately perceived without a watch, and the time from the beginning to the end of something could be measured without the slightest error.
This was also a useful magic for alchemists who make precise potions or battle mages who need to understand the opponentâs magic.
âBy the way, I learned as well.â
âHave you not mastered ?â
âuh. I donât need it.â
ââ¦â¦â
ââ¦â¦â
Suddenly silence came.
It wasnât particularly because of Alcicleâs fault, but there were times when places where people gathered were strangely quiet.
When there is nothing to say to each other, so the time to be still comes at the same time.
âI didnât cook it because I really didnât need it!â
âyes?â
âWhat are you sayingâ¦?â
Yoner and Nilia talked about âwhat kind of clubs are there in Einrogardâ, then looked away.
Alcicle, who belatedly realized his misunderstanding, blushed.
âSo I didnât learn it because I didnât need it. I donât do battles or adventuresâ¦â
âI see.â
âIt certainly is. Itâs strange to learn everything like Wodanaz.â
Unlike the two, Gainando and Eandurde stared at Alcicle.
They didnât say anything, but I could feel that the two of them communicated.
âAh-oh. These fledgling bastards who donât know anything.â
ââ¦letâs learn wodhanaz .â
âyes. Iâm done with it now.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han, who received the spell written by Alcicle and the flow of magic power when casting, learned while the senior wizard was talking.
Upon seeing that, Alcicle vowed to leave Wodanaz Mansion within this week.
Otherwise, I might go crazy.
âItâs a hellish mansionâ¦!â
âDidnât you say you couldnât cook it yesterday?â
âThatâs right. But you said that and are learned a lot by other mages as well. We have to look at this separately.â
ââ¦â¦â
Alcicle felt a strong urge to hit Lee Hanâs mouth with his wings.
Alcicle himself did not know this, but this was an impulse that even the headmaster Skeleton often felt.
âWhat next?â
âI hear himâ¦â
âYes?â
âThe next step is to go back in time and read the past.â
Alcicle, whose pronunciation was inaccurate due to his tight grip, regained his composure and spoke.
From here on, it was a specialized field of time magic that neither Alcicle nor most other wizards had mastered.
âLetâs look at this wizard card. Where would this wizard card have been a year ago?â
âI got it from a guest who came to the mansion!â
As Gainando exclaimed excitedly, Alcicle hit the wizard card with his staff as if he had spoken well.
âA year ago, it was with a guest who came to the mansion, and two years ago, it was with another person. Reading the time this card has passed through can be said to be a true introduction to time magic.â
Dealing with time was on a different level from calling and manipulating only that element like other elements.
The basic practice required an enormous level of difficulty, as it required the process of intervening separately by cutting out the wizardâs realm itself as if it were isolating it.
This played the role of giving such a basic exercise.
So that the wizard can control the passage of time remaining on the object at will.
âNow take this card and practice so you can read the pastâ¦â
Puff!
A huge golden eagle flew in front of the mansionâs window. A necklace with a crescent moon was hanging from the golden eagleâs neck.
âoh. You are here!â
âWhat?â
âThe thing I bought at the Crescent Moon Auction. You have to pay for your pitch.â
âoh. You didnât have to be in such a hurry.â
Even though he said that, Lee Han couldnât help but be slightly excited.
What kind of things did Alcicle buy?
Perhaps feeling the expectations of his juniors, Alcicle smiled and opened the package.
âVoila!â
A round silver shield the size of a buckler emerged from within the packaging. The antique forms and patterns made me feel that they were relics made in the past.
Lee Han was surprised.
âIsnât this expensive?â
âItâs not that expensive. Itâs because itâs scratched and worn, itâs not a trendy design these days, thereâs no jewels, and the effect is for actual combatâ¦â ââ¦â¦
â
Lee Han was speechless at the reason that was so realistic.
âStill, I picked it because it seemed pretty useful to you. I liked the magic on the shield.â
âWhat kind of magic do you want?â
âProjectile Slow.â
â?â
Nilia hesitated at Alcicleâs words.
The magic was not that rare.
Of course, the enchanted artifact itself was a valuable item, but that was the case with a semi-permanently engraved item.
Right now, the Shadow Ranger hunters would periodically go down the mountain range and ask the enchanters for magic.
It was to go hunting after temporarily enchanting the equipment.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
One of the magics often seen at that time was .
It was popular as it slowed down the heavy projectiles thrown by the enemies, and above all, it was not too difficult, so it was an advantage that enchantment mages knew how to use it.
âWardanaz.â
Nilia whispered as she pulled Yihanâs collar.
âAs far as I know, projectile slowdown magic isnât that good, so maybe youâre being scammedâ¦â â
â¦The word slowdown is something else!â
Alcicle was furious at the reaction of his juniors.
Anyway, all the people from Einrogard were violent and rude.
âEven if it is the same deceleration, the principle is different. Usually projectile slowdown uses telekinesis or wind element. But this slows projectiles down with time magic.â
â!â
Lee Han was surprised to hear Alcicleâs words.
Nilia was also surprised and asked.
âWhy are you bothering me like that?â
ââ¦Wizards usually do useless things. I donât know either. I must have been bored.â
It was a taboo question to ask a magician, âWhy do you use magic to do that?â
Basically, the magic is that the moment you ask like that, you donât need to use more than half of it.
It wasnât even made by Arcicle himself!
âSince I will go to Ein Lorgard, I thought that a shield like this would be fine. And it would be nice to get used to the time magic.â
âthank you. Mr Penguin. Certainly, a shield like this will be of great help in Einrogard.â
âWhy donât you talk about getting used to the time magic?â
âIsnât that natural? haha.â
Lee Han, who revealed his true feelings, took good care of his silver shield. I donât know how useful this shield is, but it was definitely more useful than a helmet.
âLee Han. Lee Han.â
â?â
âGive me the card backâ¦â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han returned the card he had received to practice magic earlier to Guyando.
As soon as Gainando received the card, he tucked it deep into his chest and was wary of his surroundings.
âI wonât lose it to anyone!â
* * *
âWe are here!â
Even Durgyu and Siana arrived at the family mansion.
The golem that greeted them bowed its head and went to the garden.
âand. Mr. Wodanaz. Are the golems working for you in the manor?â
âyes.â
âItâs really like the empireâs mage family!â
Lee Han did not bother to mention that demons occasionally appear in the estate.
Because it wasnât really that important.
âHasnât anything happened since you two came?â
âThe villagers are so kind.â
âthatâs right. I was embarrassed because he kept giving me presents.â
Gainando grumbled.
âMy carriage⦠my coachmanâ¦â
âItâs not the villagersâ fault. Guinan Island.â
âjoy. Maybe the villagers kicked out the coachman.â
âWhy would the villagers do such a thing?â
Lee Han was relieved when his friends came a long way and seemed to have been treated properly (except for one).
At this level, it seemed that he would not be sorry as the person who invited him.
âThen, since weâve all gathered, shall we go on a picnic to the city tomorrow?â
âTomorrow!? Did you come today?â
Priestess Cyana was taken aback.
âSo the day after tomorrow?â
âUh, say hello to the people living in the mansion, visit the villages around the mansion and do volunteer work⦠I think it will take a weekâ¦â ââ¦â¦â â
â¦â¦

Shia At my words, my friends exchanged complicated and subtle glances.
