Episode 564
“no. “You’ve never pushed it into a hole.”
“phew. What a relief.”
Professor Garcia, who was relieved to hear the answer, paused.
‘Didn’t you just say <in the pit>?’
So does that mean you’ve ever pushed it somewhere other than a hole?
“Lee Han Hak…”
“And what is this pit?”
When Lee Han asked with a very blatant caution, Professor Garcia felt heartbroken.
My first thought was that I had to clear this excellent student’s doubts as soon as possible.
“It’s a final exam.”
“Is that so.”
“?”
Professor Garcia was puzzled.
Lee Han’s reaction was so calm.
Of course, the boy from the Wardanaz family was not an emotional or petty person, but he still reacted so calmly?
“So are there monsters hiding under the pit?”
“Because there isn’t one??!”
Professor Garcia raised his voice without realizing it.
“You don’t really think of me as the principal, do you, Lee Han?”
“How could I have such rude thoughts? Absolutely not. However, I thought that if it was a final exam, there would be at least a hidden monster…”
Professor Garcia sighed and said.
“I was preparing to test the magic I learned this semester. “There are no monsters.”
During the first semester, it was Professor Garcia who introduced me to various schools of magic and taught me the basics.
And this second semester, I was in charge of the <Basic Practical Magic> lecture, teaching students various useful practical magic.
Examples include <Water Breathing>, <Undead Extermination>, <Undead Detection>, and <Level Undead Reverse Summoning>.
‘It seems like there are quite a few undead.’
Although it happened to contain a lot of anti-undead magic, Professor Garcia’s lecture was the most practical of the lectures this semester. Above all, what was special was that it was a lecture given by an Einrogard graduate who really cared about the students. It was a lecture that taught only magic that students could use in real life.
“Oh, but you also taught me magic related to the undead. Are there any undead?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. When did I teach you undead-related magic?”
“You taught me <Undead Extermination>, <Undead Detection>, and <Low-level Undead Reverse Summoning>…”
“I don’t know? aha. “It is clear that this student made a mistake after listening to so many lectures.”
“……”
Although Lee Han was dumbfounded, he was able to understand what Professor Garcia meant.
They are trying to keep it a secret because if the skeleton principal finds out who taught them, he could do even more twisted things.
‘Just say it with words.’
But Lee Han was slightly hurt. I don’t know about anything else, but the stabbing hurt a lot because I listened to a lot of lectures.
“All right. Excluding undead-related magic… Then, is it about <Water Breathing>, <Lesser Deciphering>, <Grant Waterproofing>, <Amplification of Vision>, and <Removing Lesser Locks>?”
“That’s accurate.”
Lee Han cautiously approached the pit and looked down.
After casting <Gonadaltes’ Dark Vision>, I infused magic into my eyes to strengthen my vision, and I could see the structure beneath the pit.
‘I guess the professor fills the water and the students swim and dive deep.’
When I looked at the bottom of the pit, there was a small passage to the side that I could fall into.
There may be simple docks or locks inside the passage.
As the water rises, visibility will become narrower, so the final exam will be overcoming the environment with magic, finding passageways, and solving poisons and locks.
After thinking this far, Lee Han suddenly felt a question arise.
“professor. Is it correct to fill up the water here and then dive in and find that hidden passage? “Is there a trap in the passage?”
“oh. that’s right. Student Lee Han. “I enjoyed it.”
Professor Garcia responded with joy when Lee Han clearly figured it out.
“But why are you standing in that position?”
“I’m being careful because I don’t want to fall into the pit.”
“…This student… I don’t push it…”
“I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”
Despite Professor Garcia’s words, Lee Han lowered his posture and observed the bottom of the pit, keeping his balance in case someone pushed him from behind.
“Anyway, Professor. “I know it’s structured like that, but…”
“?”
As Lee Han trailed off, Professor Garcia looked puzzled.
I couldn’t understand why that excellent student was asking me something like that.
“…This is a final exam. Is it okay for me to know in advance?”
Even as he asked, Lee Han was a little nervous.
Even if it was too late, Professor Garcia said, ‘Oops! Student Lee Han. I said it by mistake. This is because they could have said, ‘I have no choice but to prepare a more difficult test for these students.’
Of course, Professor Garcia was a good person compared to other professors, but he was a professor after all.
“ah. “It doesn’t matter, right?”
“…Does it matter?”
“Anyway, this student gets a perfect score. “That’s why I called you.”
“……”
Lee Han was momentarily speechless.
no…

no…?
‘is it?’
Lee Han asked again, feeling like something was making sense but also making no sense.
“But you can only find out by taking the test, right?”
“I saw this student use magic a few times… and it’s okay. Because it’s clear even without looking. “Among other professors, aren’t there people who have similar thoughts as me?”
Professor Garcia waved his cane to create a space for students to sit while taking the test.
And after the test was over, warm warmth was provided to the surroundings to help warm up the body.
“Uh… I saw you.”
“Yes? “Didn’t those professors tell you to do your own thing while taking meaningless tests?”
‘They gave me something more difficult.’
Lee Han recalled Professor Alpen saying during the midterm exam, ‘It was too easy, so I prepared for something more difficult.’
But it didn’t seem like a good idea to tell Professor Garcia that.
If that were the case, Professor Garcia could have reacted by saying, ‘Oh, that’s the way to do it?’
“It was similar.”
In response to Lee Han’s answer, Professor Garcia nodded as if he had expected that to happen.
As they prepared for the second semester final exams, the professors were complaining about their own difficulties.
-As expected, the transformation potion would be too difficult. But I paid for the firework potion last year… It’s annoying, but should I call Wardanaz and ask him to make a test?
-professor!
-No, it’s just a joke. joke. How is Professor Verdus preparing?
-me? I’m going to have you make an artifact out of discarded materials.
-no. It’s a pretty good test, isn’t it? Looks like you prepared well.
-huh. Gonadaltes told me to do this.
-……
-……
-right. I have to ask Wardanaz to prepare it. I almost forgot.
-Professor Verdus. Would you like to come to the back of the break room for a moment?
Of course, there were some unscrupulous professors, but basically, even among the professors, there was a strong feeling of ‘Why bother taking the exam if a student is going to get a perfect score anyway?’
Professor Garcia also had an understanding professor tell him this when he was a student.
-Garcia. You don’t have to take the test. Concentrate on other exams. And when you hit your friend, would you do it with your palm, not your fist?
“So, student Lee Han, prepare for other tests while preparing for the test that you will get a perfect score on anyway. “Not all other professors will let you pass the test.”
“thank you. professor.”
Lee Han was honestly grateful to Professor Garcia for his consideration.
Of course, the fact that Lee Han had the skills to get a perfect score may have played a big role in Professor Garcia making this suggestion…
…Rather than that, I probably wanted to give Lee Han, who was listening to too many lectures, a bit of a break, even if only for one lecture.
If I don’t have to worry about Professor Garcia’s test, I’ll have a little more freedom.
‘I should never tell you about Professor Alpen’s methods.’
“Instead, Student Lee Han checks the difficulty level of the final exam site here for other students. “It is more accurate to look at it through the eyes of a student rather than a professor.”
“Professor Garcia is a truly wonderful person. “I am lucky to have met you, Professor.”
“Why, why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
When Lee Han spoke in a voice filled with emotion, Professor Garcia was very embarrassed.
It was a very sudden compliment.
“I will do my best to check.”
“You can just check it with a light heart…”
Professor Garcia was a little anxious when his student prepared so enthusiastically, so he filled the hole with water.
I just wanted to confirm it with a light heart, but I was worried that it might unnecessarily put a heavy burden on the shoulders of an overly sincere student.
* * *
with a splash!
It’s been a while since I went in, but Lee Han came up quickly.
Lee Han waved away the water with a cloak enchanted with waterproofing and reported to Professor Garcia.
“I think the water needs to be a little darker.”
“ah. is it so?”
Professor Garcia took notes with a quill.
Basically, when water stagnates, it gets dark underneath, so no special magic was added, but it still seemed a little bright.
‘Is the light source strong?’
“yes. Shall I summon the dark element?”
“what are you saying. There is no need for this student. “I have to prepare.”
Professor Garcia waved his hand to stop him.
I called to hear a simple impression, but the other person was very sincere.
“All right. Then again for a moment…”
“oh. There is no need to go back in…”
with a splash!
After a while.
Lee Han came back again.
“professor. The entrance to the passage is small, but there are no other entrances nearby, so if you stay calm, you will be able to find it quickly. “How about making fake passages?”
“Um… I understand.”
Professor Garcia took notes again.
Lee Han went in and out again without any time to stop him.
-It seems like a poison that hinders vision, but wouldn’t a poison that hinders breathing be better?
-I tried to open the lock myself, but a dexterous student could open it without magic. What if we strengthen it further?
-I thought there would be something when I came up, but I was a bit surprised because there was nothing. Wouldn’t it be better to add some undead?
“……”
Professor Garcia closed the book he was writing down notes in and looked at Lee Han and asked.
“Student Lee Han. “Have any of your friends behaved in a way that made you sad recently?”
“yes? “There’s nothing in particular?”
* * *
Lee Han, who came out of Professor Garcia’s classroom, felt a little uneasy.
I was worried that I had not lived up to the professor’s expectations.
‘Was my criticism not good?’
Professor Garcia thought of Lee Han and asked him to pass the test, but he couldn’t come up with any useful improvements.
My heart felt heavy at the thought that the professor might have been disappointed.
‘I’ll have to fix it some more and bring it with me next time I see you.’
“Student Lee Han. “Next time you come, fix it and don’t bring it with you.”
Professor Garcia stuck his head through the classroom door and shouted. Lee Han asked back in surprise.
“Did you see it through foresight magic?”
“no. I saw it from the professor’s experience. Anyway, it really helped me a lot, so don’t bring it back with me fixing it!”
“yes. All right.”
To be honest, I didn’t believe it would really be helpful, but Professor Garcia’s sincerity was conveyed.
Lee Han went down the stairs, feeling a calm emotion once again.
“oh. Wodanaz! “Here, here!”
When the walking beaver called out to Lee Han, Lee Han pretended not to hear and moved on.
Professor Verdus flew lightly and blocked Lee Han.
“Are your ears blocked by any chance?”
“oh. Professor Verdus!! When did you come? it surprised me!”
