Academy’s Undercover Professor

C240: Bloody reunion (2)

Teacher, do you have to do this?

Rudger looked at his teacher and asked anxiously.

She was his teacher, who usually lived in boredom but now she was purely happy like a child who received a gift box.

Rudger said in a deep voice.

Its a mistake.

If he showed his magic, he thought she would just let it pass because he properly trained but the result was the opposite.

Grander was delighted by Rudgers achievements and wanted to see more. She was like a child who received candy but wanted to eat something sweeter.

The scary thing was that children who covet candy can be stopped by adults, but Grander is an absolute person that no one can stop. Her stubbornness was like a natural disaster.

What are you talking about, student? Seeing something this interesting, I cant stop now, can I?

.

Youll have to do your best. Show me everything you learned while I was asleep so that I can feel better.

It sounded like a joke, but she was serious.

If you are my disciple, shouldnt you be able to give joy to this teacher who has lived for a long time? That would be fun for you, too.

Im not having much fun.

Enjoy. Its the teachers command.

Rudger had no choice but to sigh at her near-unstoppable remark. He knew that more persuasion was meaningless.

Its still daylight, so I cant extract the maximum efficiency of Aether Nocturnus.

But he didnt think it would be particularly advantageous even if it was night. On the contrary, his teacher would become more powerful during the night.

Rudger pulled out his cane from the shadow. It was a luxurious gentlemans cane with a crow carved on the handle.

Now that weve come this far, I cant back down.

He had to do his best unless he wanted to die.

Here we go.

Is this your first time here?

What? Yes.

Merylda answered Alexs question a little obnoxiously. However, even if she said so, she didnt particularly dislike Alexs interest in her and asking her questions.

Youre a teacher at Theon, thats amazing. Isnt that a place thats usually hard for wizards to go to?

Well, it wasnt a big deal.

Merylda pretended to be coy, but her mouth was on the verge of ascension. She may think she didnt make it obvious, but Alex, her opponent, and Cheryl, a third party, didnt have the same opinion.

I thought you were a person who was hard to approach.

Alex analyzed Merylda while keeping his smile on his face.

Merylda had a cold-hearted image just by looking at her appearance, but she was unexpectedly soft on the inside. Contrary to the atmosphere that seemed like she met many men, the impression she gave wasnt so.

Is she a person who only studied during her school days?

Indeed. If she wanted to become a teacher at Theon, she had to study every day.

It didnt really matter to Alex anyway.

When I got a note from Hans asking for help, he was like, Whats the big deal?

Someone followed Rudger so he approached her pretending to be a coincidence, but when he talked to her, she was not a dangerous person.

I dont think I have to bother with her.But just in case, Ill have to fulfill my duties faithfully.

Alex thought so and naturally led Merylda and Cheryl in different directions. The two may think that he was guiding them to the musical venue, but the reality was the opposite. Alex was leading them somewhere else.

Well, the girl over there is quick-witted, so this wont last long either.

At the very least, it would be able to delay them until Rudger left and if he got caught he could just cover it up with a smile.

Rather than that, what is leader doing right now?

Alex couldnt believe such cute and pretty girls were chasing him around.

I envy the life of a popular person.

Alex smiled inwardly and continued to lead the way. He wanted to live like Rudger.

* * *

Here we go.

Rudger attacked first since Grander had a strong tendency to yield the first attack because of her position as an absolute powerhouse so Rudger tried his best to make the most of it as his teacher taught him.

His spell was completed quickly due to [source code]. As Rudger stretched out his cane, countless colorful spears of light appeared and shot at Grander.

Ho. Its the magic that you showed me back then.

Grander, who noticed at once that Rudger used Source Code, smiled and put mana in front of her as a round magic barrier appeared.

The mana barrier that could be created without any attributes was also called the basis of defensive magic. However, if the eighth-rank wizard unfolds it, the story is different.

A red mana shield that is much stronger than a normal barrier appeared and blocked the myriad spells that clashed into it without suffering even a scratch.

Im sure he doesnt know that either.

She always added the adjective dumb in front of the name of her disciple but Grander didnt actually think Rudger was stupid. She wouldnt even look at him if he was a real idiot.

In other words, this magic itself is a trick. He must have another objective.

It was just as she thought since a sudden mana fluctuation appeared on her sides.

Magic appeared inside the magic barrier. Grander noticed at once that the magic Rudger used transcended space as a big explosion of light happened.

Granders vision was blocked by the white light and Rudger aimed at that gap.

The mana barrier remained in place but Rudger, who wore a shadow around his body, emerged from Grandes immediate vicinity using space movement.

The handle of the crows wand turned half a turn and he pulled out a pure white sword from the inside. Rudger swung his sword stick at the slender neck of his master.

It was a blow with the determination to kill and Grander, who had her eyes closed, could not resist as her head was cut off.

The red mana shield disappeared and Granders body in the air crashed to the ground. Blood flowed over the ground and there was a moment of silence.

Rudger, who landed on the ground, stared at Grander without a word and Granders body, which fell on the grass, suddenly jumped up.

Despite the incredible sight, Rudger did not panic since he saw it many times in the past.

In the cross section of the severed neck, bright red aura shimmered like a haze, and eventually the head regenerated. Fine features, fair skin, and brilliant blond hair appeared.

Grander, who had completely regenerated herself, stood up while shaking her neck slightly.

It was a good try, disciple. But its still not enough.

Saying that, Grander stretched out the parasol in her hand and aimed it at Rudger as a spell was casted.

The shadow of Aether Nocturnus exploded and formed huge arms that tried to block Grangers attack.

A blood-red column was fired at Rudger.

The shadow and the bloody magic collided, creating a huge roar in the surroundings.

Rudger was pushed back with a huge explosion. He lifted his arms and looked at the surrounding landscape.

Are you thinking of killing me?

A huge scar was carved on the ground starting from the point where the two spells collided and the land that was devastated as if it had been hit by countless bombs. It was absolutely nothing like the horrors caused by ordinary wizards.

What do you mean youre going to die? You blocked it. Now, next.

The sky turned red as soon as Grander smiled and Rudger raised his head.

Grandes blood mana was overflowing over the sky, which was red as if the sunset appeared in broad daylight.

A pure mist of blood was formed and part of it clumped together and turned into more than 1000 spears of blood.

The fact that such a large amount of magic was created on the spot showed how high Granders standard was.

Teachers blood magic.

The blood magic used by Grander is a magic that belongs to an unusual series when it comes to the classification of magic. However, blood magic was the most flawed magic among the unique series of magic.

Mana must be mixed with the blood of the magic user, which is not feasible in practice. Blood magic is so strong that its power and destructive force are different from ordinary magic. However, the amount of blood required increased along with the power of the magic.

If an ordinary human uses blood magic, he or she would die due to excessive bleeding. Although blood magic is a unique magic, it was for this reason that it was regarded as black magic.

Blood magic is a devils magic that uses countless lives.

However, there are no such restrictions on teachers blood magic.

Blood-handling vampires were not bound by that since even a drop of their blood is more effective than any magic reagent. Even more so considering that she was a pure blood vampire.

Grander did something ridiculous and spread the vast mana mixed with her blood to obtain both power and quantity at once.

Even the natural side effects that should have occurred in the process were suppressed by the power of an eight-rank wizard.

To think that she would use so much blood magic considering that it is much more powerful than normal magic.

Grander did not have any restraint. Even if Rudger dies because he cant block it properly its his fault. That was Granders way of teaching.

Rudger immediately poured a magical potion into his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp. He began to handle the rapidly rising mana with unbelievable grasping power and discharged it outwards.

Grander beckoned and red spears rained down from the sky as if it was revenge for Rudgers wild magic a moment ago.

Rudger immediately gave orders to Aether Nocturnus and upon receiving his masters command, Aether Nocturnus reacted immediately.

The black crow-like wings spread wide behind his back, wrapped around Rudgers body, and rotated fiercely.

The falling spears of blood bounced as they collided with the black whirlpool and Grander burst into laughter at the sight.

Hahaha! Deflecting the attack by distorting space through the shadow!

If you know the coordinates and can send magic there, but you also can, on the contrary, add a distortion point to the existing coordinates, causing the space itself to bend slightly.

To do so, shadows, a medium of space movement, are needed, and a huge amount of mana is consumed, but Rudger made up for it with medicine.

Even if he would be hit by all the spears, they wouldnt be able to break through that defense.

However, in that case, your weakness is that you have to stay still.

The bloody spears that bounced off the shadow collapsed as if ice melted and the red magic immediately surrounded the black shadow protecting Rudger.

You can deflect all the falling spears but how will it defend against wide range attacks?

Grander reached out for the shadow and clasped her open hand. The bloody magic surrounding Rudger in the form of a ring turned into a giant beasts mouth and swallowed the surrounding area at once.

A huge flash of light exploded and tore the blood beast apart.

No matter how much she controlled her strength, it wasnt a technique that could be broken by ordinary magic so Grander felt her cold heart beating as she saw her disciple emerging.

The instinct as an eighth-rank wizard and the instinct of a vampire were crying out.

Ha ha ha. As expected, youre amazing! You used magic with no chant and now youre reproducing a pure miracle that has been lost in ancient times and cannot be found anywhere!

Grander, who witnessed Rudger commonly called real magic, burst into a frenzy. Her red iris grew gradually and Granders whole eyes turned red as Rudger quietly cast his magic.

GEBURA.

The Sefirot tree, made of light, appeared behind Rudgers back and at the same time, a huge pillar of fire rose from the ground and swallowed Grander.

It wasnt that Grander didnt defend, but the magic barrier she opened was burned the moment it touched the fire.

The power of Camael, the 5th Sefirot of the Tree of Sefirot, and also known as the Fire of God.

If Michaels power over fire is focused on purification the Camaels Flames are literally focused on destruction and only the flame of destruction could break Ganders powerful magic.

The pillar of fire engulfed Grander and spun fiercely, forming a vortex.

The ultra-high-heat flame would not leave even ashes behind if it were a regular wizard but as Rudger stared at the fire pillar laughter was heard from it and at that moment large red arms popped out from the cracks in the scarlet flame.
