Episode 266
“It wasn’t that big of a deal, though.”
“Observation is important.”
Professor Boladi did not trivialize emotional recognition magic.
The duel of wizards is a clash of two different worlds.
In order to gain the upper hand in that conflict, you had to have the insight to read the opponent’s world first.
“And you must have also learned emotion control magic.”
“……”
Although I was prepared, it was quite bitter that it was already known.
“It may not work well on wizards, but it is a useful spell for those who do not know how to use magic.”
“?”
Lee Han paused.
‘All the Blue Dragon Tower students passed the test?’
Lee Han clicked his tongue at his friends.
How often can a wizard let down his guard before falling victim to magic like that?
“Keep learning. The transformation magic will still be steel.”
“yes.”
Professor Boladi seemed to be more detailed in the transformation magic curriculum than the students taking the transformation magic.
The current transformation magic lecture was focused on the most basic, that is, changing the clothes a wizard usually wears into steel.
The objects worn on the body were easy to change as they were familiar, and steel was one of the most accessible and common materials for wizards.
Whoosh!
With a loud sound, Professor Boladi waved his handkerchief from an unseen angle. His handkerchief turned to steel and flew away like a whip.
Lee Han, who was always tense the moment he saw Professor Boladi, reacted immediately. he shouted, throwing down his coat.
“With steel, cloak!”
Fortunately, I was able to make it on time. The handkerchief got caught in the coat and fell off.
Professor Boladi spoke calmly, almost hitting his student on the chin.
“Increase the speed further.”
“yes…”
Lee Han was about to say, ‘Please stop making surprise attacks,’ but stopped.
It wouldn’t be much different from talking to the wall of the Blue Dragon Tower.
“Don’t be too greedy with foresight magic and healing magic.”
“Yes… Yes?”
Lee Han listened quietly and then paused.
Instead of ‘predict the future a thousand years in the future’ or ‘prepare to recover immediately even if a few holes are opened in your body’, you mean ‘don’t be greedy’?
‘If anyone hears it, they’ll think I’m greedy…’
“What do you mean by not being greedy?”
“That’s literally it. Precognitive magic is unstable and fickle. “If you force yourself to cast it, you can pay a big price.”
“……”
Lee Han, who had already used foresight magic a few times, could not help but feel nervous.
‘It seems that foresight magic is really dangerous.’
Of course, everyone I met said that precognition magic was dangerous, but when Professor Boladi said it was dangerous, it was on a different level.
This is really, really, really crazy dangerous magic!
“what? So is healing magic also unstable and capricious?”
Lee Han, who was nodding his head and listening, asked curiously.
“different.”
The reason for not being too greedy with healing magic was similar to, but different from, foresight magic.
Healing magic is basically a magic that will only backfire if you use it arbitrarily until you gain experience and do your part.
Even if you try to treat an injury for no reason, you will only end up getting more seriously injured.
“aha.”
Lee Han was grateful to Professor Garcia for keeping the secret.
The fact that I had already successfully performed a healing spell on a person seemed like something I would have to hide until I entered the tomb.

Professor Boladi did not give a separate assignment, but gave various advice on different magic.
-Make the skeleton moveable and strengthen it by combining poison and curse.
-Ogonin’s illusion magic will be helpful if you learn it. Learn up to 4 circles as quickly as possible.
-I heard you completed the steel shield. Now let’s try casting it without the help of a magic circle.
‘Rather, just give me the assignment.’
Of course, Lee Han just thought to himself. Because he was the kind of person who would actually give you an assignment if you brought it up verbally.
“Be careful of fire magic.”
“yes?”
Lee Han raised his head.
It was unexpected advice.
There was no elemental magic as widely known as fire magic, but for Lee Han, the story was a little different.
Because of the nature of the fire element, a wizard with an abnormally large amount of magical power like Lee Han will turn into an arsonist if he makes a mistake.
As such, whenever Lee Han uses fire magic, he wears several layers of various cursed, or rather, flame-reducing artifacts, and uses the magic itself as safely as possible by not increasing its size.
Professor Boladi probably knows that too, so why?
“Are you always careful?”
“You’d better be more careful.”

According to Professor Boladi, the energy of flames can be felt little by little in the flow of magical power within the school.
The magical power that originally exists in nature is strongly influenced by the environment.
The energy of flame in hot summer.
A feeling of chill in the cold winter.
Einroguard, who had one of the strongest magical powers in the empire, was bound to be even more affected by the seasons.
“But summer hasn’t even arrived yet. But is it still dangerous?”
“It must be because of the festival.”
“yes?”
“Phoenix Festival. “The students must be celebrating.”
Wizards are people who change the world with their own will.
Naturally, the rituals performed by wizards had an impact on those around them, either consciously or unconsciously.
To ensure the arrival of early summer, the festival celebrating the Phoenix naturally had no choice but to strengthen the power of the flame.
“……”
Lee Han was dumbfounded.
The atmosphere was already disorganized and chaotic because of the festival, but now we have to suffer damage like this!
I was already hating the festival.

Swordsmanship lecture.
…an hour before it starts.
Lee Han mercilessly hit the White Tiger Tower students on the back with the tree branch he was holding.
“You call that calculation? again! “If you mix the potion as is, the pot will melt and create a hole!”
As he had promised to help the White Tiger Tower students with their studies, Lee Han was helping his friends before the swordsmanship lecture began.
Of course, the White Tiger Tower students were dying.
“Take a break. Rest for 5 minutes and do it again. “Don’t move away from your seat!”
“Wardanaz, why is that bastard like that? “It’s several times worse than usual!”
“Who quarreled with Wardanaaz?”
“Didn’t you get caught swearing at Wardanaz?”
“Damn it, I told you not to swear!”
The White Tiger Tower students whispered in shock and fear.
Someone next to me said, ‘Your potion is so bad that you will go to jail if you sell it for money!’ I was in awe of being harassed in the same way.
It felt better when Lee Han was violent.
White Tiger Tower students are basically not used to sitting down and studying for long periods of time.
“Wardanaz. “I don’t know about you, but we are knights, so our constitutions are not suited to studying…”
“Are you going to shut up and sit down, or are you going to sit down after being hit?”
“……”
Giselle was usually displeased with anything Lee Han did, but this time was different.
‘Swear more. Wardanaz. ‘Swear more.’
Giselle did not regret entering the White Tiger Tower, but there were times when she felt regretful.
One of them was that I couldn’t hit them as hard as they were top students.
Guys who usually avoid studying come to their senses and start flopping around when you throw a wadanaz at them…
“What are you all doing?”
The elf professor, Ingalldel, asked curiously.
In the hallowed place of swordsmanship lectures, students had laid out tables and were suffering.
“professor!!”
The students were so happy that they shed tears at the sight of the professor who arrived 30 minutes early.
“Wardanaz… is trying to force me to study…”
“aha.”
Professor Ingalldel looked at Lee Han and said.
“You are doing something nice for your friends. It’s not even the same tower. “I was impressed.”
“no. professor. “Aren’t we training our swordsmanship together?”
Professor Ingalldell was moved by Lee Han’s pretentious words. He spoke hurriedly, as if the White Tiger Tower student next to him felt something ominous.
“Since you’re here early, let’s start the lecture!”
“no. There’s still time left, so study a little more. “I will wait by your side.”
“……”
“……”
The White Tiger Tower students were filled with sadness and pain. Professor Ingalldel spoke calmly.
“In the past, people learning swordsmanship often neglected their studies. “You guys, don’t do that.”
“yes…”
* * *
The White Tiger Tower students, who studied extra for a full 30 minutes, stood up and stretched.
I felt like my whole body had turned to stone no matter how long I sat there.
Professor Ingalldell smiled and waited for the students, holding his sword.
“Everyone had a hard time studying. “I wonder if you are preparing well for the final exam?”
“No need to worry!”
“you’re right. “Now the mountain range feels like a garden.”
‘Those without conscience.’
‘Such ridiculous bravado.’
Lee Han and Giselle were shocked by the remarks made by White Tiger Top friends.
Last time the Kurare Lizard came out, the guys who had one foot in the underworld were so shameless that they had an iron plate slapped on their faces.
“I’m glad that’s the case. But I still think I need help… so I called someone to help me today.”
“!”
“Are you by any chance the Knights of the White Wood?”
The students wondered if the knights from the Baekyangmok Knights who came last time had come again.
“Are they helpful? “I don’t think you know anything about mountains?”
“Let’s take it to where the kurare lizard came from last time.”
‘Are these guys knights?’
Lee Han was dumbfounded at the sight of his White Tiger Top friends making a fuss about losing.
“It is not the White Pine Knights. “This way.”
As Professor Ingalldel shouted, two strangers he had never seen walked forward.
Yesterday, I saw many adventurers in the village, but the guests in front of me looked like their equipment was incomparably better than those adventurers.
The exterior of the equipment was rough and old, but complex magical powers were felt inside. It was definitely an artifact.
Potion bottles and tools worn on the belt, unwavering gait and posture…
‘Are they famous adventurers?’
“This person here is Mr. Vaishada, a member of the <Shadow Patrol>. And this person here is Mr. Geese, a member of <Wasteland Stargazer>.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised.
Shadow Patrol. I heard it so hard every time I talked to Nylia, I knew very well that they were patrollers of the Northern Mountains.
Wasteland stargazers are those who patrol the wilderness areas of the western part of the empire.
Although both were excellent groups, their awareness was quite different.
A cool name, a location in the western part of the empire that receives a lot of people’s attention, and even a track record of producing famous people for the empire.
Thanks to this, the Wasteland Stargazers, whose names were often featured in fairy tales and imperial newspapers, could not be compared to the Shadow Patrol in terms of recognition.
-The children of stargazers in the wasteland are truly disgusting! They are really, really disgusting bastards! They must have bought the Imperial Newspaper! We don’t even come down from the mountain range, but we dedicate ourselves to the people in the village below! Those kids just wander around the wilderness and stop by the village to get some rest! And pretending to be cool is the best in the empire!
‘Uhm. ‘I shouldn’t tell Neilia.’
I was already stressed about final exams, so I thought I might collapse if I heard that the Wasteland Stargazer was here.
“These two will give you advice on how to find monsters and how to attack them.”
Before Professor Ingalldel finished speaking, the White Tiger Tower students quietly moved away.
Of course, it was in front of him who was a member of the Wasteland Star Catcher.
In contrast, Vaishada, a member of the Shadow Patrol, stood still as if he wasn’t expecting anything.
“…!”
Vaishada was astonished.
Three students gathered in front of Vaishada.
“Moradi. “It was decided by majority vote, so let’s not complain.”
“How can this be a majority vote when Dergyu is on your side…!”
“If you feel unfair, you too can bribe Dergyu.”
“I wasn’t bribed. “I just thought it would be better to learn from someone who is part of the Shadow Patrol.”
