Episode 107
Although Lee Han was blindfolded, he could see what was happening.
I wanted to deny it, but I felt it all over my body.
Now Professor Boladi was calling up other elements besides the lightning element.
‘That means…’
In fact, just for Lee Han to dodge the lightning by covering his eyes was an incredible feat.
Although he himself was busy avoiding it, there was no way Professor Boladi would smile about anything.
Reading the trajectory of a horse and avoiding it before it is shot is a difficult task even with your eyes open.
Visual acuity trained through swordsmanship training.
Innate magic detection ability.
It would not have been possible without either of these two.
However, when Lee Han did it too easily, Professor Boladi casually increased the level of difficulty.
If Professor Garcia had seen it while passing by, he would have been shocked and asked, ‘What are you doing!?’
Asking people to do difficult tasks in complete darkness even with their eyes open.
The problem was that Lee Han did it perfectly there again.
Then Professor Boladi casually increased the difficulty level again.
A professor and student who don’t step on each other’s brakes.
Thanks to this, Lee Han had to undergo an ordeal of ridiculously bloody difficulty on the first day of elemental detection training.
In a way, it was a blessing in disguise.
‘…Are the other elements a trick?’
Without realizing that he had dug his own grave, Lee Han just concentrated.
Not only the lightning, but the energies of other elements were felt. It was not a time when I could leisurely think about other things.
There was only one reason why Professor Boladi floated other elements in the current situation.
Trickery!
The way Lee Han avoided the lightning in an invisible space was simple.
As their eyes were covered and their body vision was blocked, they only competed based on their pure magical power.
Even lightning that simply shoots out in a straight line has seen numerous changes in a short period of time if you look at its flow.
Lee Han, who realized that the magic power was slightly condensed to obtain explosive power the moment it was fired, grasped the precursor phenomenon and avoided the lightning.
But now, when elements other than lightning start to mix here and there…
We had to classify magical power by its properties, detect omens, find lightning, and capture the phenomenon of magical power condensing.
Moreover, given Professor Boladi’s vicious personality, elements of other attributes that had been placed on standby by trickery could also participate in the attack, so we had to pay attention to those as well.
‘Can I do it?’
Lee Han raised his head towards the elements radiating presence in the darkness.
Honestly, it seemed impossible.
then…
‘Get hit with as little pain as possible!’
* * *
Lee Han’s prediction was wrong.
Surprisingly enough, Lee Han succeeded again.
“……”
Professor Boladi, who would have said what he wanted to say right away, fell silent for a moment out of surprise.
‘You were born with it.’
What the boy from the Wardanaz family possessed was not just enormous magical power.
When I thought about it, since I was born with such enormous magical power, learning magic by manipulating that magical energy itself was an incredibly difficult task.
Even more so if it’s a freshman.
The boy from the Wardanaz family thought that the speed at which he learned magic was not that great, perhaps because of his humble personality.
Of course, that was fast enough, but it was also true that compared to the childhood of the empire’s famous genius wizards, it felt a bit behind.
However, that was when the amount of magical power he had was not calculated.
The fact that he has that much magical power and learns magic at that speed is proof of his talent.
Normally, it was difficult to notice because of the magical power he had, but it was a different story when he sensed the magical energy around him.
In fields where there is no penalty for horsepower, some of the talent is bound to flow out.
Perfect!
Professor Boladi made the handkerchief covering Lee Han’s eyes disappear.
Despite having accomplished such great things, the boy from the Wardanaz family was calm. The professor didn’t say anything specifically.
“I didn’t think I would pass everything on the first day.”
“…Maybe it’s because the professor did it all at once.”
Lee Han politely said, ‘So, please do your best from now on.’
However, speaking politely to professors did not convey the message well.
“There is no need to be thankful.”
“?”
For a moment, Lee Han wondered what was going on.
And I understood it too late.
Professor Boladi was thinking that Lee Han had said, ‘I was able to pass all the assignments thanks to the professor giving me the assignments at once.’
‘…I’m going crazy.’
While Lee Han was getting frustrated, Professor Boladi continued.
“Originally, I was going to spend more time training in elemental detection. But I don’t think that’s necessary.”
Lee Han was relieved. Listening to Professor Boladi, it seemed like today’s lecture was over.
Professor Boladi held out a package wrapped in cloth.

“You seem exhausted.”
“…!”
Lee Han was surprised.
Of course, I was exhausted because I had to dodge the lightning with my eyes open and avoid the lightning with my eyes closed.
But I never imagined that Professor Boladi would be this worried.
‘what?’
At first, I thought there was some kind of trap in the package, but Professor Boladi was not a person with the malicious intent of a skeleton headmaster.
Lee Han carefully unwrapped the package.
‘Is there any medicine in it?’
What was in the package was a magic book. Professor Boladi nodded his head and said:
“This is a book about basic lightning magic and its applications. “Be sure to learn it until next time.”
“……”
Professor Boladi was not a man with the malicious intent of a skeleton headmaster.
It’s just that people are a bit crazy.
Lee Han belatedly realized what Professor Boladi meant when he said, ‘You seem tired.’
I was just purely expressing what I thought when I saw Lee Han.
The horse and the package were completely different!
“…All right.”
Lee Han controlled his facial expression and put away the magic book.
Even if I had to swear, I had to go to a place where Professor Boladi was not present.
‘Now that I think about it, wasn’t this week the week of the paper exam?’
When I thought about it, the magic Professor Boladi gave me to learn wasn’t important.
Professor Boladi doesn’t have a written test, but other lectures don’t.
-■■■!
Lee Han turned his head at the sound of a summoned animal coming from outside the classroom, in the front yard of the main building.
“What’s going on?”
“The professors are dealing with the escaped summons.”
“??”
Lee Han did not understand.
Just last week, escaped summoners were wandering around the school, but aren’t the professors paying attention?
Why suddenly?
“Is something wrong? why?”
“I guess we should deal with it because it could interfere with taking the test.”
“……”
Lee Han was speechless and bowed to leave the classroom.
‘I asked for no reason…’
* * *
The book Professor Boladi gave me, <On Basic Lightning Element Magic and Its Applications>, was a better book than I expected.
‘no. ‘Who wrote this?’
Considering that most magic books do not take into account that new students read them, <On Basic Lightning Elemental Magic and Its Applications> was really kind.
The 1st circle magic <Lightning Creation> did not simply explain spells and actions.
Unlike other 1st circle elemental magic, it is quite difficult to fix the location of the lightning element after creation. The most common mistake rookie wizards make is to summon the elemental lightning and then lose control and spray it in an unspecified direction. To prepare for this, prepare the following. First, wear thick clothes that are impervious to the lightning element, and when there are no other people around…
Lee Han checked back because he wanted to find other books by the wizard who wrote this book. But there was no author.
‘Is this a book written within a magic school?’
There were many books in the empire that were not systematically mass-produced. There were many things that individuals wrote by hand and then passed down.
The books in the magic school were even more so.
When I went to the library, the books were already sorted in a disorderly manner, so much so that I couldn’t tell what was written in more than half of them.
Basically, wizards are people who only care about themselves and don’t care about others!
‘If I were a bookstore owner, I would get rid of all those books.’
Aside from his hatred for Professor Boladi, Lee Han thought he should read this book more.
There is nothing wrong with the book, is there?
And next time, Professor Boladi will definitely lecture on the assumption that Lee Han has mastered this book…
“Nice to meet you, Wardanaz!”
Lee Han was surprised when the professor spoke cheerfully from behind him. It was never a good sign.
Fortunately, the other person was a familiar face. It was Professor Kirmin Ku, a close friend of Professor Boladi.
“Are you going to take the <Understanding Basic Magic> lecture? Right?”
“yes.”
“Great! We can go together. “I was just on my way to the classroom.”
Professor Kirmin was such a cheerful person that it was hard to believe that he was friends with Professor Boladi.
Lee Han was slightly excited to see that.
Professors who were young, had good personalities, and had friendly relationships were more likely to treat students well.
Of course, I didn’t know if that law would work in magic schools, but…
“Are you teaching illusion magic?”
“okay. Professor Bagrek does not like illusion magic, but illusion magic is useful in many ways.”
If you delve deep into any field of magic, it is so infinite that there is no end in sight.
Casting barrier magic to prevent intruders in an area or showing hallucinations to enemies are just a few examples of illusion magic.
There were wizards who combined spatial magic to create bizarre fantasy labyrinths that could not exist in reality, and there were wizards who combined with mental magic to defeat opponents with just eye contact.
After hearing the explanation, Lee Han thought to himself.
‘It would be nice to steal.’
Avoid gaze by wrapping an illusion around one’s body, destroying the illusion magic installed, etc.
No matter how kindly Professor Kirmin explained it, I couldn’t help but think differently.
“Wardanaz. “The last time I saw you, I thought you had a talent for illusion magic.”
Lee Han was pleased with Professor Kirmin’s words.
Originally, I had to be careful when I heard a professor say something like, ‘You have talent.’
The moment you let your guard down, you can be dragged under the professor and forced to become his student.
But it was already too late for Lee Han to worry about that. From the moment I entered the magic school, I had no choice but to learn under the professor.
The important thing was to find a kind and decent professor.
And Professor Kirmin might have been a kind and decent professor.
I wasn’t sure yet…
‘Illusion magic isn’t bad either. ‘If you cook anything well, you can eat and make a living anywhere, right?’
“There is something more important in fantasy magic than a lot of magic power, excellent elemental affinity, or extraordinary calculation power. This is precise control. In my view, Wardanaaz, you are gifted.”
“…???”
Lee Han was embarrassed.
What would happen to Lee Han, who is far from being able to control things in detail due to his enormous magical power?
‘Aren’t you mistaken because you submitted the assignment last time?’
That was something Lee Han had gotten used to by beating him until he became Professor Boladi, and it wasn’t that Lee Han was particularly talented.
“Thank you… thank you.”
“I was wondering if there was any field of magic you were interested in. “Usually talented freshmen like you don’t just pick one, they pick multiple fields.”
“I haven’t decided yet.”
Professor Kirmin changed Lee Han’s answer and asked a question.
“Then… Is there any other professor you’ve met outside of class hours other than Professor Bagrek?”
It was not a question that Lee Han was interested in, but a question that allowed us to find out which professor Lee Han was interested in.
Not only do disciples choose their teachers, but teachers also choose their disciples.
“First of all, Professor Thunderstruck…”
“aha. alchemy.”
“Professor Lightning Step.”
“zoology.”
“And Professor Willow.”
“botany.”
“Professor Mortum…”
“It’s black magic?”
“Professor Millais too.”
“Summoning magic. for a moment. for a moment.”
Professor Kirmin paused.
There were too many.
