Episode 543
‘Is it something to be that excited about?’
Professor Kirmin was puzzled as he watched Lee Han and Ratford excitedly dismantling the box.
Of course, as a professor, I was happy that the student was interested in the lecture content and showed passion, but I was rather embarrassed when he was so enthusiastic about the content, which was not very interesting no matter how much I thought about it.
“professor. Are there any more difficult boxes?”
“Wardanaz. “You’re not planning to go somewhere and steal, are you?”
Professor Kirmin said jokingly.
Lee Han’s eyes wavered ever so slightly.
“W-what do you mean? “It is an academic inquiry into fantasy magic.”
“Right… that’s right. “That can’t be possible, right?”
“It’s a joke. joke.”
* * *
Unlike some professors who liked sticks and sticks, Professor Kirmin was a soft professor who preferred sticks and carrots.
Now that the students have wrestled with boring and boring boxes, the next step is to show them something interesting to achieve balance.
“Everyone had a hard time holding on to the boring box and unlocking it.”
“no. “It was fun.”
At Lee Han’s words, his friends glared at him as if he were going to kill him.
Since I couldn’t glare from the front, I had no choice but to glare from behind.
This is why the valedictorian of the grade…!
“Then shall I continue explaining the magic I taught you last time? Everyone remembers, right?”
“Yes, Professor!”
The students’ faces brightened.
After the tedious analysis and analysis, the lecture that is close to practical has arrived.
The professor called a student and said:
“ruler. try.”
“…Oyster, be refracted!”
When the student who had cast the <Projectile Deflection> spell additionally casted a magic missile, a blue sphere the size of a fist, which was supposed to fly straight, appeared to fly from a different direction than it actually did.
It was an illusion magic that unexpectedly confused the trajectory of the magic cast by the wizard.
“Uh oh…!”
When it seemed like the magic missile was going to hit the professor directly in the face, the student who cast it let out a confused sound.
Lee Han looked at him with slightly expectant eyes.
Of course, Professor Kirmin did not welcome it. The moment the magic exploded, the professor’s alter ego disappeared as if it were falling apart.
“!”
“…!!”
Goosebumps ran down the spines of the students present.
The professor I just talked to was actually an alter ego. He couldn’t even guess when it had changed.
“Well done, well done. But it’s so honest. “You’ll have to learn to cheat a little more.”
All excellent illusion wizards were good at trickery.
If it were necessary to attack a fortress, a reinforced wizard would enter from the front like a knight armed with heavy armor, deflect incoming attacks and crush the enemies.
However, if you are a fantasy wizard, you will kill the commander before the people in the fortress notice and pretend to be the commander of the fortress.
Contrary to head-to-head competition and extravagance, surprise and deception were essential to fantasy magic.
“ruler. Then let’s pair up two by two. One for attack, one for defense. The person in charge of the attack must somehow deceive the opponent and subdue them. got it? Wardanaz. Where should I go? You should do it with me. “You did it with me last time too.”
“yes…”
Lee Han became sullen and returned to Professor Kirmin.
The students sent respectful greetings to the professor. Professor Kirmin shook his hand as if he knew what he was thinking.
“Honestly, Wardanaz, you won’t be sorry if you compete with them.”
“Not really?”
Professor Kirmin pretended not to hear what Lee Han said. During his time as a professor at Einro Guard, he developed a knack for pretending not to hear anything that was unfavorable to him.
“I learned that from Professor Bagrek, but it’s too much for ordinary students.”
“I didn’t learn much.”
“Wardanaz, you erased from your memory the last time you pretended to be dead and attacked me, right?”
Professor Kirmin looked at Lee Han as if he was dumbfounded.
During the last lecture, Lee Han suddenly collapsed, pretending to have a heart attack, and when I approached him, he immediately started casting magic. How absurd it was.
No matter how much you think about it, it was a trick that Professor Bae was suspicious of.
“ruler. “Let’s stop talking nonsense and start.”
“yes. Increase!”
Lee Han memorized the spell <Increase Projectiles>.
It was similar to <Projectile Deflection> earlier, but it was a slightly more difficult illusion magic.
An illusion is cast on the staff that increases the number of projectiles cast by the wizard.
“Water!”
Lee Han shook the water ball’s trajectory dizzyingly and lightly threw it at Professor Kirmin.
Since it was a place to practice illusion magic, there was no need for power to defeat the opponent.
Professor Kirmin said as if he was dumbfounded.
“You pretended to cast an illusion spell, but now you’ve really cast all of them, right?”
“no.”
“No, it doesn’t matter.”
The professor waved his cane. Then the flying water beads split apart and crashed.
All of them were water with substance.

It was a great trick that gave it a high score. Of course, not everyone can waste magic power like that…
‘It’s probably fake, right?’
Lee Han focused his attention on Professor Kirmin in front of him.
It wasn’t just a guess based on experience; I actually felt a very slight awkwardness in Professor Kirmin’s appearance.
It wasn’t that the appearance was awkward.
The subtle difference that is inevitably felt when magic is cast.
An ordinary wizard could not feel it, but someone with an extremely sensitive sense of magic like Lee Han could feel it.
“hmm.”
Lee Han stabbed the White Tiger Tower student, who was competing with Ratford in illusion magic next to him, with his wand.
“evil!”
“sorry. “I thought you were a professor.”
“That’s what I meant…”
“Wardanaz. “It’s great that you noticed, but it doesn’t work that way.”
Professor Kirmin hit the floor with his cane as if he couldn’t do that.
If a fantasy wizard were to hide in a village, he wouldn’t be able to attack all the villagers.
Lee Han looked around again.
Since it is impossible to know where and how the professor is hiding, a wide-area attack…
“Wardanaz. Even wide-area magic doesn’t work.”
Lee Han looked annoyed at the professor in front of him.
“If everything doesn’t work out, what should I do?”
“It’s a fantasy magic lecture, not Professor Bagrek’s lecture, right?”
It was definitely true.
Lee Han reflected slightly and threw a water bead at the professor. The professor lightly defended himself.
‘I need to find a sense of discomfort.’
A heterogeneous flow that is significantly different from the general flow of magic power felt in nature.
Usually, such a flow was a clue to detecting a wizard’s magic.
The problem is that the magic of other students continues to explode in this classroom.
The flow of magical power was very volatile as magic flew from all directions.
“Park Mu, spread out.”
“!”
Professor Kirmin looked slightly moved when he saw Lee Han’s <Ogonin’s Night Dance>.
Who would have thought that a first-year student would be able to cast 3-circle magic, especially Ogonin’s arcane magic, so cleanly.
Every time he used magic to destroy the magic circle for the lecture or destroy materials with magic, there were few students as remarkable as Wardanaz.
‘You have to hide me first.’
Lee Han faithfully acted as instructed.
Even if Lee Han had an offensive role, it would be at a disadvantage if Professor Kirmin continued to observe Lee Han.
I had to somehow shake my vision for a moment.
“Cloak, swallow me…”
‘you are good?’
Professor Kirmin was amazed as Lee Han’s figure became completely transparent in the shimmering fog.
It was not for nothing that he was given the title of “Boladi’s only disciple.”
I never thought I’d become so proficient after teaching you this fantasy magic battle several times.
‘okay. You have to know how to hide yourself during an attack.’
Sigh!
Suddenly the window closed and the curtains were drawn.
The students who were swinging their sticks and kicking the opponent’s shins also stopped and looked away.
Professor Kirmin shouted involuntarily due to an ominous premonition.
“Hey, wait…!”
Clink!!
Lee Han mercilessly smashed the magic lamp on the classroom ceiling.
The artifact that was emitting light shattered with a loud sound, and the classroom instantly became dark.
The professor felt both a desire to praise him and a desire to call Professor Bagrek and criticize him, saying, ‘You’re making this kid weird.’
‘They’re destroying that thing!’
But it didn’t get completely dark inside.
The light that penetrated the curtain and the magical afterglow emitted by the students remained.
“Darkness, flow out!”
“…!”
Professor Kirmin laughed out loud at the persistent will to destroy the blackout by mobilizing even the rare element of darkness.
I was fully enjoying the privilege of being on the offensive side.
“So, Wardanaz? “Bringing in the darkness was a good idea, but finding the main body seems to have become more disadvantageous.”
“no. “I found it.”
Ihan stopped behind Ymirg, released the invisibility spell, and lightly hit his back with his staff.
Then Ymirg’s appearance changed into Professor Kirmin. As the classroom became brighter, the students next to them screamed in surprise.
“How did you find it?”
Professor Kirmin asked because he was really unexpected.
Wardanaz was moving in a good direction, but he still had a long way to go before finding the right answer.
But how?
“After casting the invisibility spell, I also casted the <Ogonin’s Emotion Recognition> spell.”
“ah. <Recognition of Ogonin’s emotions>? “Is this really a smart choice?”
“Uh… yes. Ogonin.”
Lee Han took a quick look and added Nim.
I felt like I needed to be more careful with my name in front of Professor Kirmin.
The reason for writing <Ogonin’s Emotional Recognition> was simple.
If Professor Kirmin was hiding as one of the students, he thought he would show calm emotions unlike the other students.
The professor clapped his hands as if he was very satisfied with Lee Han’s idea.
“okay. Did you manage to notice? Did you notice when you saw the magic bounce? “Although Ymirg has strong magic resistance, it is not enough to block all emotion recognition magic.”
“Uh… well, the magic itself was successful.”
Professor Kirmin was embarrassed after hearing Lee Han’s words.
Since it was not a combat situation, Professor Kirmin did not go around the school casting many defensive spells.
Still, since he is basically an illusion wizard, there are some spells he habitually casts for security purposes…
You just looked through it?
“I really want it. “I heard there’s a reason why Professor Bagrek really likes you.”
“yes???”
For the first time in a long time, Lee Han looked at him with a straight face.
* * *
Professor Verdus, who used to call Lee Han when he was bored, drastically reduced his calls, but Lee Han didn’t care one bit.
This was because I knew very well that the moment I came here and asked, ‘Professor, are you okay?’, Professor Verdus would be like falling deep into a swamp.
Even now, I just enjoy the peace created by my senior in the dungeon.
‘thank you. Senior Kettle.’
But I couldn’t avoid Professor Verdus forever.
A typical example was the lecture time.
“Wardanaz. “It’s a lecture on magic, why are you so bright?”
Angago did not understand.
Isn’t Wardanaz even the one who has to go pick up the professor?
Just thinking about it gives me a stomach ache…
“ah. “It made me happy to think that I could only meet the professor during lectures.”
“……”
Giselle, who was passing by, looked at Lee Han like he was crazy.
“professor?”
Before the lecture began, Lee Han knocked on Professor Verdus’ workshop.
Professor Verdus opened the door with a gesture from afar and told me to come in.
“oh. Were you working on it? Shall we come next time?”
“no. I have to go to the lecture. “They said if I didn’t go, they would kill me.”
Lee Han didn’t ask, ‘Who is it?’ I just smiled calmly.
Professor Verdus grumbled and finished the work quickly.
“This is so annoying! “What kind of crazy person is destroying the magic lights in the classroom?”
“……”
