Episode 758
âStill, I want to listen to the lecture I couldnât hear.â
âWhat lecture is this?â
âUh⦠these are .â
âhuh? âThis must be a third-grade lecture?â
âThatâs right.â
Lee Han answered his seniorâs question in a bitter voice.
âNo matter how much you take the entire school, there will be no good results if you rush to use precognitive magic.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The senior gave common sense advice and then asked a question.
âBy any chance, what type of fortune-telling did you learn?â
âLast year, I mainly used stone divination.â
âIt seems like it would be hard to keep upâ¦â
The reason why precognitive wizards used fortune-telling was to protect themselves.
Peeking into the future brings a huge burden to wizards.
Divination protected the wizardâs mind by breaking this future into uncertain, metaphorical fragments.
The wizard protects himself by not peeking into the future directly, but by peeking into fragments of fragments that reveal the future.
Of course, there were also disadvantages. The accuracy went down and the level of difficulty for the wizard himself to read increased.
The stone fortune-telling that first-year students practiced last year was a relatively easy fortune-telling technique that allowed them to answer simple questions, and even then, many students were less accurate or had major rebounds.
The senior doubted whether the junior, who had only learned stone divination, could learn .
âsenior. âCan I ask you one more thing?â
âSure.â
ââ¦Why are you in the form of a golem?â
Lee Han couldnât hold back and asked a question.
No matter how many rare races can be seen in Einroguard, the Bronze Golem race has never been seen.
As a junior, I tried to remain quiet as my senior acted like nothing was wrong, but I couldnât hold back any longer.
âBecause of the side effects of precognition magic.â
âAre there any precognitive spells that require you to become a bronze golem in return?!â
âThatâs not it. You have to pay a price for peeking into the future, and if you get hit with your bare body, you could die. âItâs better to stay in bronze golem form for a while.â
ââ¦okay.â
Lee Han seemed to understand why the number of people in the wisdom magic school was so small that it was compared to the black magic school.
No matter how confident your seniors are, they probably donât want to become bronze golems or go crazy.
âBronze Golem Seonb⦠What is your name?â
âah. âI canât tell you.â
â?â
âBecause this week is an inauspicious week when I introduce myself.â
ââ¦â¦.â
Lee Han decided that he should just call the other person Bronze Golem Senior.
I was afraid that if I found out their names, we might become closer to each other for no reason.
âSenior Golem. âStill, can you tell me about the content of the lecture?â
âof course. I honestly doubt whether it will be okay, but since the professor allowed me to listenâ¦â
Senior Golem motioned for me to come in with a creaky bronze finger.
When Lee Han tried to take a step, his senior quickly stopped him.
âfor a moment.â
â?â
âWould you please step with your right foot first? âFor the next three days, you will be lucky if you start with the right foot.â
âyes.â
Lee Han accepted it without any further embarrassment.
Now, I am not so immature as to be embarrassed by the addition of one more crazy senior.
Lee Han followed behind, taking steps starting with his right foot (Senior Golem whistled sideways once every five steps) and carefully asked a question.
âCan you explain a little more about the⦠strange⦠or⦠these actions you are doing right now?â
âItâs not difficult.â
Senior Golem explained relatively kindly to the few juniors.
Wizards of the school of precognitive magic practiced various and complex divination methods to read the uncertain future as accurately as possible, while also thinking about how to use that future to the greatest advantage.
One of them was a way to âavoid an unfavorable future and move toward a favorable future.â
âIs that possible? âThe more you look at the future in detail, the greater the price you will have to payâ¦â
âYou donât see the future directly. Just finding out the constraints. Actions that avoid bad luck and bring good luck.â
Golem Senior was an outstanding precognitive wizard.
To figure out which actions would bring good luck and avoid bad luck, he used three types of fortune-telling and five types of magic every week.
âAmazing.â
Lee Han was surprised to hear his seniorâs magic theory.
I knew that precognitive magic was particularly unstable and strange among the Empireâs schools of magic, but I never thought something like this was possible.
âHow effective is it?â
âI found a few lucky actions this week, so it may not be enough, butâ¦â
Senior Golem rummaged through his pockets, found some dice, and threw them. The number 6 came up five times in a row, and then a different number came up at the end.
âthis. âIf it had been last week, there would have been more.â
ââ¦!â
Lee Han was surprised.
Luck was much more powerful than I thought.
Quad deuk!
At that moment, the ceiling of the workshop collapsed and a brick was about to hit Senior Golemâs head.
Instinctively swinging his staff, Lee Han used his telekinesis to blow away the bricks.
âAre you okay?!â
âHow did youâ¦? Avoid it instead!â
â?â
As soon as he finished speaking, a spirit movement occurred in the workshop, and the bricks that had been blown away by the strong wind were dragged back.
Suddenly, a brick hit Senior Golemâs head.
Kang!
âTsk. As expected, I put too few restrictions on luck this week.â
âWhat on earth just happened?!â
âGood luck and bad luck are like two sides of a silver coin. If you use good luck, bad luck will come. donât mind. I became a golem in preparation for something like this. ruler. Here is the content of the lecture I gave this week in âCrazy Precognitive Magicâ.â
Senior Golem waved his wand and pulled out the contents of this weekâs lecture from the book.
In the lecture , we will cover complex and powerful divination beyond simple and intuitive divination⦠(omitted)⦠The divination spells that a precognition wizard can try are as follows⦠Spirit gold fortune
telling
â Throw five gold coins that have gone through a special process and offer the heads-up gold coins to the summoned spirit. The greater the number of gold coins offered, the more accurate the spiritâs prophecy becomesâ¦
âThis is a terrible and cruel fortune telling.â
Five Demon Divinations
â Summons the devil from the future and records five prophecies. If you fail to guess two of the prophecies that are false, you will be cursed with strong bad luckâ¦
âOh. âThis is so much better.â
The junior Golem, who was diligently taking notes, seemed rather anxious, so he opened his mouth.
âRather than practicing or learning this all at once, you just learn first that there is this kind of in-depth divination. Thereâs no need to get ahead of yourself. got it?â
âyes. âI will keep that in mind.â
âDonât practice alone, practice in this imaginary hall. âSpeaking of which, would you like to practice now?â
Golem senior did not trust his junior that much.
If a student is hungry enough for magic and knowledge to enroll in an entire school, it would not be strange for them to go back to their private room and experiment with those fortune-telling skills one by one.
As his senior said, Lee Han, who had no intention of practicing alone, thought to himself.
âAs expected, youâre being harsh because youâre Einroguardâs senior.â
As soon as I said there was no need to overdo it, they forced me to practice right away.
I couldnât believe what Einrogardâs seniors were saying.
âI would like to practice the Five Demon Divinations.â
âHmm. okay.â
Seeing his junior choosing the devil dot instead of the gold dot, Golem seniorâs feelings of concern became even stronger.
Wizards were originally divided into two.
Those who try easy magic first, and those who try difficult magic first!
And unlike other schools, the latter school of wisdom magic had a higher dropout rate. Had to watch very closely.
âArrange the following supplies and summon the devil from the future. Summoning the devil itself is quite difficult, so donât be in a hurry. got it?â
âyes.â
Lee Han took out the reagents one by one as instructed in the book.
Among the dimensions of amanita mushrooms collected during the old moon, I wrote down the name of the future with the bone fragments obtained from the demon world⦠âIn exchange for
my bad luck, I ask for five prophecies, tempting devil. âCome out.â
âTry again slowly.â
The golem senior saw the juniorâs precise movements and consumption of spell magic and thought that it would take less trial and error than expected.
I was worried about whether I would be able to keep up with the third-year lectures, but it seems that the professor had a reason for making me take it.
âSeniors. âIsnât this what you were summoned for?â
âwhat?â
Golem Senior used his creaky bronze joints to turn his neck.
Then he was frightened when he saw the devilâs mouth flashing in the middle of the magic circle.
â?!?!â
Surprisingly, this junior summoned the devil in one go!
âIs there even a little bit of devilâs blood mixed in your veins?â
âNot as far as I know.â
âIs the Wardanaz family closely related to the devil?â
âUh⦠a littleâ¦?â
Lee Han answered, wondering if capturing demons and using them as slaves was closely related.
Senior Bronze Golem was a little convinced by those words.
Wizards who had devilâs blood mixed in their veins or whose families had ties to devils had an advantage when using related types of magic.
The same principle applies as a wizard with spirit blood has an advantage in elemental magic.
â¦But summoning it all at once was a bit surprisingâ¦
âI didnât know you could summon it all at once. So you picked the devil dot? âSmart?â
âhaha. thank you.â
Although it wasnât for that particular reason, Lee Han nodded because he wanted to make a good impression on his senior from the same school.
âI thought you must have taken classes from the previous school, that you came back to take the lectures you missed, and that you were someone who risked your life and recklessly tackled magic like the professor.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han cursed the Bronze Golem senior in his mind.
Perhaps because he had a cold metal heart, he was extremely rude.
âThen take your time. âAsk me to tell you the prophecy.â
âTell me the prophecy.â
-You will face an ancient beingâ¦
ââ¦â¦â
âIsnât this a lie?â
Golem senior guessed from the side.
Even if you were an Einroguard, it was rare to meet an ancient being.
-You must not wander outside in broad daylight or in the middle of the nightâ¦
âHmm. âThis also seems false.â
This was one of the restrictions among the prophecies, but its contents were overly harsh.
Golem senior cast a skeptical look.
Of course, I had set various restrictions to increase good luck and suppress bad luck, but isnât this a too broad restriction?
-The wizards of other cradles will be horribly trampledâ¦
âIsnât this a lie?â
Lee Han, who had been listening quietly, asked.
Senior Golem shook his head.
âOf the three that have come out so far, this seems the most likely. By cradle, you probably mean another magic school. âI have some business to meet.â
âApart from meeting them, why would I trample on those peopleâ¦â
âThatâs how wizards have pride. Be quiet. âI will miss the prophecy.â
-You will be addicted to the stone mountainâ¦
-The spirit will tempt youâ¦
âItâs like the first and second.â
âMy thoughts are a little different. Devil, the fourth and fifth are lies!â
â?!â
-Itâs a shame⦠I will await your arrogance and destructionâ¦
The devil disappeared into the future, looking openly disappointed.
Golem senior blinked the lens aperture in amazement at his juniorâs amazing talent.
âI didnât leave it because the professor was annoying!â
When Professor Passelette left a card saying, âStudents can follow the progress without having to come in to ask about what they missed,â I thought he left it out of annoyance, but surprisingly, it turned out to be real.
âSeniors. âI want to learn about ways to change the future from prophecy!â
âWell. âDonât rush. The more you hurry, the more dangerous it becomes.â
âIt seems more dangerous to stay still nowâ¦â
