Life of a Magic Academy Mage Chapter 679

Episode 679

As a dignified senior, Delet suppressed the urge to scream and guided Lee Han inside.

As expected, the old mansion revealed a completely different scene when passing through the door.

The large dome-shaped space painted white was filled with an academic atmosphere.

The wizards, each wearing unique attire, gathered in groups of twos and threes and talked with serious expressions.

-Does this mean research support has been cut off?

-That’s right! Well, of course I stole the gold, but it was only for the sake of greater magic.

-know. know! They cut off research support just because I stole some gold. Rude guys. What do you think of magic? The development of magic stops because of people like that!

-What do you think about the cane style that is popular in the capital?

-A single fire element creates such an unstable structure? It’s just vulgar! The fad will die down soon!

While wizards were talking in front of the dome, wizards were preparing to present at today’s exchange meeting behind the dome.

Lee Han, who found Ga-won preparing in the meantime, prayed for the best.

Delet left his name in the guestbook and called Lee Han.

“Junior. here. “You have to look from here.”

“What is it?”

“It’s a snack. “The refreshments here at the exchange are good.”

Delet personally lifted the plate and placed some snacks and tea on it.

“Remember this. “Apricot snacks and chestnut snacks are delicious here.”

“Oh, yes.”

Lee Han was a little taken aback by Delet’s serious tone.

For a moment, I thought it was Kainan Island.

“Uh, Senior Direth. “Don’t we need to prepare more magic or something like that for the exchange meeting?”

“huh?”

Delet sipped his tea and laughed at his junior’s words.

“More than half of what is presented at exchange meetings is trash, so why? “It would be a waste of time if I didn’t choose something delicious, even if it was just a snack.”

In fact, half of it was said positively.

I said I came here to get inspiration, but there probably aren’t even one or two magic words today that can provide inspiration to a wizard like Delet.

That was only possible if you were lucky.

“Fortunately, Princess Yukveltyre is participating in today’s exchange meeting. “I think his work is worth seeing.”

“who are you?”

“ah. You don’t know. My friend. He is also your senior. He also moves up to the 5th grade…”

Delet tried not to show it in front of his juniors, but his last words contained anxiety and depression that could not be hidden.

Lee Han cheered.

“Cheer up. “I’m sure you’ll be able to do well.”

“…I don’t know what you’re talking about?”

Direth realized that he had behaved in an indecent manner in front of his junior and cleared his throat, pretending not to notice.

“So what is the story about the principal earlier?”

“hmm. “It would take a while to tell that story.”

“Anyway, all we have left is time. “It will take longer to prepare.”

Delet answered while shrugging his shoulders.

“So the reason I went to the Vuitton Mountains…”

Lee Han talked about why he went to the Vuitton Mountains and why the principal took the unicorn with him.

At first, I was leisurely snacking on snacks, but soon I put down my tea cup and started focusing on the story.

“so? So what happened?”

“Unicorns! “What about those poor unicorns?”

Even other wizards nearby.

Lee Han and Direth looked at the wizards in confusion.

“Well, this is an internal affair of Einroguard, so it’s a bit hard for outsiders to hear it…”

“Please, please! “I will keep your secret!”

“Please let me know! Whoops! “What happened!”

The wizards begged and begged, but Lee Han and Delet calmly got up and headed to another seat.

“…That’s why the principal took the unicorn with him.”

Only after hearing the whole story was Delet able to take a deep breath.

“Junior, you…really…”

“?”

“…There are so many things to point out, I don’t know where to point them out. “You really survive with your life!”

“I was lucky.”

‘Isn’t this bad luck?’

Delet said, thinking only to himself.

“I don’t know about anything else, but I’m a little worried because you seem to be too close to the principal.”

“Is it because your friends might mistake you for a spy?”

“…No… magic. It was a magic story. “Because the principal’s magic isn’t easy.”

Delet looked at his junior as if he were dumbfounded.

‘but.’

Still, Lee Han sympathized deeply as he had already been given a ridiculous task when we parted ways in the Vuitton Mountains.

“So, Professor Bendozol is coming back this year?”

“yes.”

“Well, cheer up. Junior.”

Lee Han suddenly became anxious at Dilet’s words, which had many implications.

“…Was it that bad?”

“little? “I still can’t forget taking out my friend who had accidentally entered the Kraken’s stomach.”

Delet looked into space with eyes filled with memories.

Of course, Lee Han couldn’t help but feel that way. He looked at his senior with astonishment.

“Don’t worry too much, junior. Because it’s the path we’ve all gone through. Of course, second-year lectures will become more difficult, but you, junior, have already taken them hard enough. “It won’t change much.”

“Thank you for your warm comfort…”

Lee Han answered with complicated feelings, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

“really. Mr. Direth. Do you know what small world magic is?”

When I asked him if he remembered what he had heard from the skeleton principal, Direth looked at Lee Han with a puzzled expression.

“I know, but why? “I don’t think it’s magic that you’ll be interested in yet, junior.”

Even though he was puzzled, Delet took out the paper he had and drew a simple picture to explain.

There was still time left anyway, and in Delet’s opinion, the junior in front of him was very crazy about magic, so it wasn’t strange that he was interested in it.

“Youngjae, you know what it means for a wizard to use magic.”

“Changing reality with the wizard’s will…”

Because it was such a famous phrase, Lee Han answered without much thought. Di Let nodded his head and continued his explanation.

“that’s right. But strictly speaking, most magic doesn’t really change reality. “It’s closer to cleverly deceiving reality.”

Delet pointed to a wizard passing by wearing a dazzling cloak of light magic.

The cloak of light changed into seven colors and created a unique magic wave.

“That magic is probably <Asen’s Seven-Colored Illusion Cloak>. The standard way to cast that magic is two magic circles and five types of reagents. And it’s a spell longer than four words. But why can’t we just cast it with a spell, will, and movement? “Isn’t it much easier then?”

“It’s because I don’t have enough horsepower.”

Lee Han answered immediately.

“……”

Direth looked at his junior with a slightly stunned expression at the unexpected answer.

“Well… that’s true, but that’s not what I’m talking about now, junior. “I wanted to say that changing reality is not as easy as you think.”

Magic was not a science that created something from nothing without any cost.

If you want to achieve any phenomenon, you have to pay a price.

Whether it’s magic power, reagents, or spells…

“The reason why all kinds of complicated methods are used is because, fundamentally, it is closer to deceiving rather than changing reality. Various methods are used to cleverly deceive. If you really want to change reality, it’s difficult with low-level magic. It requires a much higher level of magic, and all kinds of visions… one of them is the state of the small world.”

I was lost in thought as I wondered how best to explain Delet, who has been mentioned so far.

“Do you know about unique world magic? “I think you probably don’t know…”

“I know. “I’ve seen it before.”

“ah. You know what? …what? “Where did you see that?!”

Delet was surprised.

Did you see it at the Wardanaz family?!

“Ask about that later… The magic of the unique world is the pinnacle of magic and the highest level. Because the world itself is changed by the wizard’s will. However, it is such an esoteric and difficult magic… and few people aim for it.”

Not all wizards dreamed of magic like the Skeleton Headmaster’s unique world.

Since the goal of wizards is basically the quest for knowledge, only magic that is related to their purpose is important.

Magic, which was difficult to reach even after a lifetime of grinding, was ineffective as a means.

In comparison, small-world magic was much more localized and limited, but it changed reality based on similar principles as native-world magic.

‘Is it like popular unique world magic?’

Lee Han listened to Dirette’s explanation and understood it in his own way.

Well, as much as Principal Skeleton had some conscience (although he did recommend learning magic right away), he couldn’t tell him to learn the unique world right away.

Instead, it was clear that he recommended starting from a small world where there were many people who were a little more familiar with it.

Unique world magic is a magician’s highest level that no one can teach.

In comparison, small world magic was theorized to some extent and was at a level that could be learned by investing time and talent.

“If we can unfold a small world, then we can truly say that we can change reality. The magic that can be performed within it also becomes more diverse.”

“Do you know how to use Dilette?”

“If you prepare very, very well, only briefly and in limited circumstances.”

Delet briefly explained the small world he had learned, ‘Pentagramaton’.

It was a small world of a series that solved the limitations of black magic within the wizard and at close range.

“But there is almost nothing to write about. “If I’m going to use this, it’s much easier to just prepare it in a different way.”

If it is necessary to prepare magic beyond the limit, Direth will simply cast various magics in the attack and defense to strongly dominate the area, and then amplify his own abilities with elixirs.

If you take control of an area with magic and amplify your own abilities, you will get an effect roughly similar to that of a small world.

Wizards have always been creatures that pursue efficiency.

“That’s amazing!”

Lee Han looked at Delet with eyes full of respect.

“I heard you can only use it for a little while.”

“Still, what’s great is great. “I respect you.”

Delet looked embarrassed at his junior’s words and avoided his gaze. He didn’t feel bad about receiving compliments, but it was also true that he felt a little embarrassed.

Delet cleared his throat and changed the topic.

“But why the small world? “Who told you to cook it?”

“yes.”

“…What kind of crazy bastard?!”

Delet was astonished when the positive response came back to what he said as a joke.

“The principal told me to learn the 5th circle magic so that I can enter at the end of this year.”

“Has the crazy bastard lost his mind!”

Delet was furious.

Seeing that, Lee Han was even more moved than before.

How many people would be angry at the skeleton principal for the sake of their juniors?

Loyalty surged naturally.

“This isn’t going to work. Junior. “I am writing a letter.”

“Oh, no. it’s okay.”

“What makes it okay?!”

“I was thinking of making a reasonable excuse and moving on.”

“how?”

“I was just planning on learning the easy magic and then insisting that I did what I was told.”

“……”

Delet got angry and was speechless.

So now…

Aren’t you confident that you can learn the easy 5-circle magic?

Direth shook his head, feeling once again that the junior in front of him was a genius that could not be compared to himself.

“…okay. Junior. It’s your job, so you should respect your opinion. But if you decide it won’t work later, don’t hold back and tell me.”

“yes. “If I find it difficult, I will just tell His Majesty directly.”

“Yeah… huh?”

Delet, who was speaking, tilted his head.

Didn’t you just say it was not a letter, but a letter?
