Episode 26
EPISODE.13
“Let me see.”
Checking the checklist he had prepared in advance once again, Russell packed his items into his backpack.
The heat of late summer was reaching its peak, which meant that the start of school was slowly approaching.
‘If we don’t want to be late, we should leave by now.’
Of course, there was no need to pack a backpack. Because he had a subspace called inventory.
If necessary, it would be possible to greatly simplify your luggage and leave with only a single layer of clothing.
but.
‘If that happens, I’ll have to explain the inventory to the tower owner… … .’
I just didn’t have the confidence to do it.
Not only was he unable to use subspace magic at his current level, but the pouch with subspace magic was also a fairly expensive item.
‘Get in the carriage, after you’re out of town. I have no choice but to put the entire backpack in my inventory.’
I’m just packing my bags, at least formally, for a while.
Daria, who was passing nearby, glances into the room and mutters.
“Now that I think about it, the time has already passed like this.”
For a little over a month, I looked around the room Russell lived in and thought about it for a while.
‘Hmm. What should I do?’
She thought Russell’s growth was just beginning to gain momentum.
This means that it is the time when a small hole begins to open.
If it were possible to completely drill that hole and pour water in, it would also be possible to collapse the dam.
The fact that she had to send Russell away in such a situation was quite unfortunate for her.
‘That goes for this kid too, Russell.’
Even though it may be instinctive, you probably feel that it is an important time.
That was why.
“kid… … .”
I called Russell, who was packing his luggage, and stopped him.
“No, the youngest.”
Since when did it start?
Daria’s title for herself began to change little by little from Aiya to Maknae.
It was probably after Daria recognized him as an official disciple in her heart.
‘If that happens, does that mean Professor Hubert and I will be sentenced to death?’
Just a short, silly thought.
The important thing now was to answer Daria’s call.
“yes. “Master.”
Daria responded, ‘You seem like a quick-witted guy.’ She mumbled and laughed briefly.
He took out a pumpkin-flavored candy from somewhere and threw it into his mouth.
“It would be a waste to go back to the academy in your current situation, so how about you learn more under me for at least a month or two and then go back?”
“But, Master.”
The reason why Russell, whose family was ruined, was able to attend a prestigious academy that requires expensive tuition.
That was the power of the medal received by Russell’s father, Count Raymond.
The story goes that Russell’s tuition is being paid by the royal family.
If I wasn’t going to be expelled, I had to get a diploma.
But I’m told not to go back to the academy.
Let’s explain your concerns briefly, Wagjak.
She said, crushing the pumpkin candy in her mouth.
“If that’s your problem, don’t worry.”
Who do you think I am?
Daria, who was mumbling like that, lightly moves her fingertips.
Woe!
Letters of light are engraved in the air along the fingertips.
‘Russell, I’ll keep this kid for a few months.’
Russell’s eyes followed the text.
‘I trust that they will take care of it… … all?’
.
your teacher
Daria Snowwhite.
To Hubert.
.
A letter with unconventional content without even the slightest formality.
It was a letter whose content was possible because he was one of the highest-ranking wizards in this country, not anyone else.
‘But if this happens, all the burden will be on Professor Hyobert.’
No, Hubert’s execution would have to be carried alone?
Russell thought so, and Daria stretched out her hand.
I brought up an empty stationery and copied the letters of light onto it, while at the same time tapping Russell’s shoulder with my other hand.
“I know what you’re thinking, but nothing bad will happen, so don’t worry.”
He added immediately afterwards in a playful tone.
“No. Even if something big happens, Hubert is the one who solves it. “Isn’t that his part?”

I’m sure he won’t ignore the request of his heavenly teacher.
Since he was giggling while concluding his words like that, it was the attitude of a teacher who desperately wants to pick on his student, so Russell ended up laughing without realizing it.
.
.
A few days after that.
Hubert, who received Daria’s mail at Walkerhill Academy, smiled bitterly.
Like Russell’s, a laugh that confirmed his teacher’s playfulness.
“The two of you finally met.”
For some reason, it seemed like that would happen, but I never thought that what I did would actually happen.
I moistened my mouth with the tea I was holding.
I checked the contents of the letter my teacher sent once again.
A brief letter that simply states what he or she wants to say.
This is an overly rude letter for someone who is a professor at an academy to receive.
However, after checking the contents of the letter, Hubert did not think it was rude.
He muttered, showing a faint smile that did not suit his stern face.
“Rather, I should say this is more like a teacher.”
You must have been giggling after passing on most of the most annoying problems to yourself.
However, processing Daria’s request is not that difficult.
‘It’s rather easy.’
Whether it’s field training.
Otherwise, it may be a special dispatch request from the Magic Tower. There were many systems that could replace the number of days of attendance for about two months.
In addition, the letter also had Yeomtapju’s straight face stamped on it.
‘He may be very playful, but surprisingly, he is a person who is sure to get things done in this area.’
Hubert leaned back as he stuffed the letter with Daria’s seal into his chest.
I buried my sore neck and shoulders deep into the chair.
When I closed my eyes, the image of Russell leaving the academy came to mind.
From the professor and student in charge, to now the relationship between the death penalty and the priest.
I don’t have the slightest feeling that the student was taken away.
The relationship between himself and Russell was not completely severed, and it would be better if he thought about his future.
It should be congratulated.
“It’s incredible that a new youngest priest is born at such a late age.”
It was only a little over half a year ago that Russell began to change.
However, it was Russell’s potential that literally showed explosive growth in that short period of time.
And teacher.
Daria Snowwhite had the ability to fully realize her potential.
Russell already, no.
‘I’m looking forward to meeting the youngest priest again.’
While thinking that, the corner of Hubert’s mouth seemed to twitch at the unfamiliar movement.
It was twitching slightly.
* * *
Two months.
Daria’s teachings over the past two months have gone beyond strict and even become violent.
The teachings are violent.
I felt like the vocabulary wasn’t quite right, but it couldn’t be helped.
Russell knew no better word to describe her teachings than violent.
Moreover, her teachings were not only deep but also wide.
Teaching that is not simply limited to theory, but also assumes practice.
The proof is this.
[mission]
Defeat the Pyramid Dwarf.
Defeat the 7 flame dwarves summoned by Daria Snowwhite, the Flame Tower Master.
1/7
It was a mission that came to mind when I first started fighting with Daria.
At the same time, it was also a mission that Russell had never cleared in the past two months.
‘I was successful in taking down about two or three of them.’
Because of the changes that occurred after that, all seven have never been defeated.
“Good luck, good luck!”
“Wraaralak!”
Flame dwarves are frantically shooting everywhere, and wow!
Russell, who had greatly improved his physical abilities, hit the floor.
I crossed between them.
“Happy birthday!”
One of the dwarves thrusts a flaming spear into the heat.
Sigh!
Russell twisted his waist as he planted his feet on the floor.
Using his right foot as the axis, he swung his left foot sharply like a whip.
-!
‘It may be a body made of flame, but its source is magical power.’
In that case, it would also be possible to capture its true nature by surrounding it with magical power.
bang!
A dwarf flies away with an explosion and falls, rolling around on the floor.
Russell’s roundhouse kick pierced the guy’s chest.
“fury… … Rock?”
He slowly stood up, recovering from the hole in his chest.
Russell did not miss the opportunity.
The wind that was controlled by magical power was blown into the hole in his chest. It exploded in the middle of it.
Air Bomb
The magic power mixed with the 3-circle wind magic exploded and shook the guy’s roots.
Cough!
The sound of a balloon popping.
The magical power that made up its body explodes in all directions.
“Hwarak?”
“Hwa-ra-ra-rak?”
The dwarves made unintelligible noises at the sight of their comrade exploding.
‘Two of these.’
The number of those remaining is five.
“You always come this far.”
Daria, who was watching the scene while eating peppermint candy, muttered.
That was the beginning.
“Hwarak.”
“Hwaralak?”
The temperature around them seemed to rise, and soon the five dwarves began to merge into one.
“Tsk!”
Russell moved quickly to stop it, but it was already too late.
“Coooooooo!”
The flame dwarf, or rather the flame giant now, roars with his enormous body.
Then, the giant’s arm made of flames lunges towards Russell!
bang!
Flames exploded in all directions.
Even then, the remaining shock hit Russell’s body.
“Oops!”
The shock was enough to make me roll my eyes for a moment.
If you didn’t deploy your shield in a split second,
‘What would have happened?’
Just thinking about it is a terrible idea. Of course, Daria wouldn’t have really gone that far.
This was training assuming actual combat.
“Coooooooo!”
Russell slowly controlled his breathing as he looked at the flame monster that had already become one body.
“Whoa.”
The reason why I have not been able to accomplish my mission even once in the past two months.
The reason was because it was that giant of flame.
‘For sure today.’
Russell burned his fighting spirit.
Is it because I received Daria’s teachings and solved the missions without stopping?
Russell’s magical power was almost close to the 4th circle.
Those magical powers responded fiercely to Russell’s fighting spirit.
It was bubbling and gushing out like magma from an active volcano.
Quang, boom!
Avoid the fire giant’s attack and accelerate your consciousness to the fullest.
‘Just because it has the appearance of a flame, there is no need to use water attribute magic to suppress it.’
Through two months of experience, I came to understand that their source was not flames, but inherent magical power.
‘then.’
The magic power that makes up a guy.
All you have to do is burn away the magical power itself!
Hwaaaaaaa!
Russell Raymond.
Originality.
Blaze Lance.
Pushing away the flame giant’s heat, the most powerful magic he can use appears along with the heat.
“Indeed, it’s that magic this time too.”
Daria muttered as she stared at Blaze Lance.
How surprising it was when a magician who was only a 3rd circle member showed off a magic with originality that had a power approaching that of the 5th circle.
Even now, the surprise and joy of that time are still vivid.
“It’s definitely amazing magic, but that’s not enough.”
If that were possible, the Flame Giant would have been defeated a long time ago.
Russell also knew that well.
I gritted my teeth.
The circle overheated once again.
‘If one shot doesn’t work!’
Two feet!
According to the reply received from Hubert, only about two months can replace the number of days of attendance.
That period was slowly coming to an end.
If Daria worked hard, she could extend the date, but Russell himself didn’t want that.
All you want is to succeed in your mission and grow within a limited period of time.
“Ugh-!”
Is it because the mana circle is overheated to its limit?
The inside of my throat feels hot, as if a fireball is rising.
The fishy taste of blood fills my mouth.
As the second Blaze Lance’s presence faded, Russell sensed failure.
‘It won’t work this time…’ … .’
That moment.
“uh?”
It was a strange feeling.
The feeling that the world unfolding before your eyes has become a little wider.
I can feel the Mana Road, which was overheated just a moment ago, stabilizing.
It was as if another circle had formed and embraced the boiling mana.
‘Circle 4?’
Faster than doubt.
Russell instinctively completed the second spell and threw out two spears made of flame.
It pierced the giant’s chest.
Wedge, boom, boom!
Grumble!
The fire that broke out like a storm consumed the giant’s magic power.
“Koooooooo-!!”

[The mission has been accomplished. Compensation will be paid.]
[As compensation… … .]
How many alarms are there?
The last of these alarms rang clearly in my ears.
[You have achieved Circle 4.]
[Intermediate magic stones (edible) x2, low grade magic stones (edible) x3, and lowest grade magic stones (edible) x5 are provided as rewards.]
[Rewards for reaching Circle 4 will be provided.]
