Episode 226
Whether Lee Han felt unfair or not, Professor Boladi continued speaking as if admonishing him.
“Rock Drake was originally not a monster to be caught now.”
‘So you’re saying that Nachal Angler is the monster we’re going to catch now?’
Lee Han swallowed his words internally.
It was even more disgusting to see that the person who forced the person to catch the Rakshasagi was like that.
“I said it before, but impatience can ruin a wizard.”
“yes. I know.”
“Your goal should not be hasty. “Keep that in mind.”
“yes. You know… my goal?”
Lee Han paused.
What is Lee Han’s goal?
‘Did I ever tell Professor Boladi that I wanted to become an imperial official? Or did he ever say that he wanted to become the richest man in the empire?’
No matter how much I thought about it, there was nothing.
If it’s another goal…
‘I wanted to hit the skeleton principal.’
“Excuse me, but what do you mean by my goal?”
“Weren’t you trying to perfect the form of complete combat magic through multiple magic training?”
“…!”
When you hear something so outrageous, you can’t even say ‘Yes?’
Lee Han was like that right now.
Although the study of magic is inherently dangerous, there are few among them who face such danger as battle wizards who use magic in battle.
The worries of these battle wizards were always the same.
-How can I refine my magic to be more suitable for battle?
In fact, in some ways, magic was a technology most unsuited to combat.
If you want to kill someone up close, you can swing a sword, and if you want to kill someone from a distance, you can shoot an arrow. How inefficient is it to train for years to create blade-like hands and arrows made of wind?
Of course, no one denied the powerful destructive power of high-circle magic.
…Usually, there are huge restrictions on casting such magic on the battlefield.
In the preparation process, in the reagents, in the concentration…
Moreover, if you tried to cast such a spell again, the opponent would not stay still. Since the opponent also had eyes, I tried to kill the wizard first.
I already had to concentrate to cast high circle magic (if these spells failed again, the caster could die), but I also had to pay attention to the opponent’s attacks.
Magic combat wasn’t difficult for nothing. Magic combat meant that even excellent wizards were useless on the battlefield if they were not professionally trained.
In any case, as they specialize in such difficult tasks, battle wizards were always conscious of their weaknesses and thought about ways to improve them.
-I have practiced fire elemental magic my whole life. However, on the last battlefield, I was hit by an arrow from behind and I started to worry. What should I do?
-Cast wide-area flame magic around you to block access from others.
-That is unreasonable. I have friends who move with me.
-Then learn how to make a curtain or shield with flame.
-I tried it, but not only did it consume too much magic power, but due to the nature of flames, I couldn’t block specially treated arrows.
-I can’t help it. Take this robe.
-Is this a robe with a defensive spell?
-no. This is a robe mainly worn by earth element wizards. If you wear this robe, archers will target others first. Most earth element wizards have strong defenses.
-……
However, as anyone who has learned magic knows, it was not easy to completely eliminate one’s weaknesses using only a single school of magic.
Aren’t there things that only enchantment can do, and things that only summoning magic can do?
If you reach a certain level, you will be able to solve the problem by applying the magic of a single school, but that is only possible if you are at a level to be called an archmage…
The easiest way was to learn magic from other schools.
Of course, there was a reason why other battle wizards did not use this easiest method.
-Foreknowledge magic to prevent surprise attacks on the battlefield, summoning magic to summon a shield to protect me, reinforcing magic to reduce damage in case of an attack, and finally healing magic to prepare for injuries. . I’m trying to learn it this way, what do you think?
-Even if you think about it, don’t you feel something strange right now?
…It is difficult to achieve great success even if you delve deep into the magic of one school and practice it, but learning magic from multiple schools?
Even the students of Einrogard, which gathered the best talent in the empire, trained in more than two or three schools.
Although learning together can have a synergistic effect, a person’s body and mind have limitations.
“for a moment. “I understand the explanation, but why did this story come out?”
Lee Han, who was listening, was puzzled as the story took a strange turn and asked.
“Weren’t you learning magic from all schools to perfect your battle magic?”
To Professor Boladi’s question, Lee Han answered firmly with a straight face.
“What a coincidence!”
“Was it a coincidence? Right.”
‘Are you convinced?’
“Intuition is sometimes a better guide than reason. Especially since I have an aptitude for foresight magic.”
“……”
‘I’ll be amazed.’
When I thought about it, Professor Boladi was a person who only looked at the results when doing something and did not really consider the cause or reason.
Since Lee Han is already taking magic lectures from various schools, he must be thinking, ‘Then it would be nice to become a battle wizard who can utilize all those magics.’
“professor. At first glance, perfecting combat magic without weaknesses through multiple magic training sounds ideal… but isn’t it difficult in reality?”
Lee Han tried to persuade Professor Boladi.
It sounds ideal, but isn’t it a realistic training method?
Professor Boladi nodded.

‘Are you convinced…?’
“But with you, it’s a different story. “I received high praise for all my lectures.”
“……”
Lee Han was angry at the professors.
Why is everyone so soft-spoken?
Shouldn’t a student’s aptitude or grades be kept to himself?
“Then it is not unlikely.”
Professor Boladi’s theory was as follows.
Currently, Lee Han had completed his ‘basic’ elemental training on time.
Now you have to practice some advanced processes (evaporation, rotation, or floating ice shield), but…
…If Lee Han had a grand goal of training in multiple magic, that had to be respected as well.
So Professor Boladi was preparing to apply and combine the magic he had learned from other schools of magic.
“The magic of other schools will now be making full progress.”
“Excuse me, but how?”
“Didn’t you tell me to bring books from the library?”
“……”
I can’t believe it’s connected like that.
Lee Han lamented inwardly.
I should have set the library on fire!
‘for a moment. ‘Maybe it’s not necessarily a bad thing.’
When I thought about it, even if other schools of magic were making progress in earnest, this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Professor Boladi will try to apply and combine what he has learned, so won’t the progress slow down to some extent?
And there was a high possibility that magic from other schools would not be pushed as harshly as Professor Boladi.
‘This becomes a peaceful and warm lecture as you learn how to apply and combine different magics.’
Lee Han, who was trying hard to find positive aspects of the situation, heard Professor Boladi’s voice in his ears.
“preparation.”
“……”
A storm of magic missiles ready to strike from all directions.
When I thought about it, Professor Boladi said he would help me apply magic from other schools in battle, but he didn’t say he would stop the advanced courses he had already taught.
Of course we do it together.
“…Freeze!!”
* * *
Professor Boladi was truly disappointed.
Because of his urgent desire to catch the Rock Drake, the disciple from the Wardanaz family was unable to complete the floating ice shield spell.
Of course, it wasn’t just a failure.
Lee Han succeeded in summoning an ice shield, and even succeeded in making the ice shield float in the air.
However, the ability to ‘autonomously move around and block attacks’ with this ice shield was not completely successful.
Because I was still not familiar with the enchantment, the ice shield moved or crashed randomly, so there was still a way to go.
Nevertheless, this was an enormous achievement. Especially considering that he is a first-year student.
However, none of the teachers and students in the classroom thought this achievement was enormous.
‘weird. ‘Why is it so hard?’
Lee Han took a deep breath.
Although his magical power was fine, his mental power was severely drained.
It was much more difficult to bring in and maintain the cold than usual.
It wasn’t like this last time…
“ah.”
Lee Han, realizing the reason, paused.
“Why are you doing that?”
“professor. Unlike last week, the current school is not a good environment for using frost magic because the king of the frost giants is gone.”
“Right. “I will bring a chill to the classroom during the next lecture.”
“……”
Lee Han was at a loss for words at the sight of Professor Boladi so confidently brushing off what he had forgotten.
‘…You’re a born professor. really.’

“Lee Han. “I think there was something in the snack…”
Friends were worried about Lee Han’s shady expression.
I ate the skeleton principal’s snack okay, but wasn’t there actually a trap?
“It’s just because the lectures are difficult.”
“I see. “If that’s the case.”
Other friends were whispering next to the relieved Kainando.
-Is it okay to be safe?
-The additional lectures Wardanaz is currently taking are roughly…
But what can you do?
My friend is already on that path.
The Blue Dragon Tower students forced smiles and said.
“But today’s summoning magic lecture will be okay!”
“that’s right. Wardanaz, you are especially good at summoning magic. “It’s not that difficult…”
However, as soon as the students sat down, Professor Millay corrected the position of the monocle and spoke firmly.
“Since everyone brought books from the library, today’s lecture is going to be a bit difficult.”
“……”
“……”
Lee Han shook his head with a bitter expression. His friends seemed to be heartbroken when they saw that.
“Wardanaz…!”
“cheer up! “You can’t fall!”
Of course, it was a sight that other top students could not understand.
“Blue Dragon Tower guys, what are they doing?”
“Why on earth are you worried about Wardanaz? “What if Wodanaz cares about them?”
“quiet.”
Professor Millais made the students quiet. Even without the compulsory magic of a skeleton headmaster, this old professor knew how to keep his students quiet.
“Up until now, you have been casting summoning magic using magic circles. That’s because summoning magic is so difficult.”
Professor Millais waved his cane as he spoke.
Then, pieces of stone rose from the floor, collided, and turned into metal, which then turned into a sword.
The professor’s actions did not end there. He swung once more and cast the enchantment.
Then the sword danced as if it were alive.
“Everyone, can you see this sword?”
“yes!”
“I cast several spells to complete this dancing sword.”
Lee Han, who had done something similar in the morning, nodded.
Professor Millais threw an octahedron-shaped reagent from his pocket and waved his wand.
Then the same dancing sword was summoned.
“There are dozens or hundreds of ways to reproduce the same phenomenon. Among them, summoning magic is a shortcut.”
It was a much more convenient way to summon a dancing sword at once than to create a sword out of nothing and then enchant it with an enchantment.
“But summoning magic requires a lot of preparation, is complicated, and is difficult. “A living being or a non-moving being.”
The students, who had heard it several times and knew it, nodded.
“Dancing swords like the one you just showed can’t be implemented in dozens or hundreds of ways at your level. “If so, it means that it cannot be realized even with summoning magic.”
“…?”
Lee Han tilted his head slightly.
‘hmm. I guess I should just stay still.’
