Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Chapter 274

Even with the same amount of magical power, the magical power was never the same.

Some magical powers have the attribute of flame a little stronger, some have a slightly stronger negative attribute, and some magical powers have a lot of impurities and can be cloudy.

Magic with low impurities and high purity produced a much stronger effect with the same amount.

Of course, a wizard would want to carry only the purest magic power in his body, but…

…that was practically impossible.

To live is to decay and die.

Even if you breathe, impurities are created, but if you are a living being, you cannot have pure magical power without a speck of dust.

So the mage honed and polished his magic with various secrets and increased its purity with incantations.

But sometimes there are exceptions.

Even if they didn’t do that, there were wizards who were naturally gifted with pure magical power.

The boy from the Wardanaz family in front of me was a bit taller, but…

-Don’t tell Biblé.

-of course.

Headmaster Skeleton and Professor Garcia communicated telepathically.

It was obvious that if Professor Verdus knew about this, he would be even more annoying.

“what’s the matter?”

stay still Why are you so bummed out?

Headmaster Skeleton blocked Professor Verdus’ view and turned his head with force. Professor Verdus’ head turned with a thundering sound.

In the meantime, Professor Garcia quickly dissipated his remaining magic power. So that Professor Verdus would see and not notice.

I’ll place an order soon.

“for a moment. My throat hurts a bit.”

treat it later I have to do it before the magical power I received disappears.

“okay. okay.”

Professor Verdus grumbled, but did what he had to do.

After swinging and tapping the staff a few times, flame retardant magic was applied to all the students in the seat.

When the preparations were finished, the Headmaster Skeleton asked with interest.

Then how are you going to consume the phoenix’s stamina now?

“First, you two help me.”

?

Headmaster Skeleton was puzzled when Lee Han pointed at himself and Professor Voladi.

dare?

If you think that I will kindly help you, you are very mistaken. bloke.

‘He said he helped…’

The students were taken aback, but Lee Han wasn’t surprised.

Because I used to be that kind of person!

“Wouldn’t you like to help me to some extent?”

Only at the level you can do as a professor.

“yes. That’s all I’d like to ask for.”

So what?

* * *

……

Skeleton Principal looked at the phoenix with sad eyes. Then he said to Professor Boladi next to him.

Why did you accept that?

“?”

Just before.

Lee Han asked for this.

-You two, drive the phoenix.

-what? To drive away the phoenix with magic. That’s beyond the level of being able to do it as a professor.

– I’m not asking you to use magic.

-then?

-Please just come closer.

-……

Headmaster Skeleton had no choice but to admit that Lee Han used his brain well.

Unlike driving the phoenix with magic, it wasn’t too difficult to just get close to it.

In addition, phantom beasts like the phoenix had sharp instincts close to super senses.

There was a high possibility of avoiding beings that could cause harm to the phoenix, such as the skeleton headmaster.

But I couldn’t refuse because the Headmaster Skeleton said something…

-Good. But Professor Bagreck here is reluctant to do such a thing…

‘ Say no instead. Professor Bagreck.’

-i get it.

-!?

Professor Voladi accepted it much easier than expected.

From the point of view of Headmaster Skeleton, it was absurd.

Since when did you become so cooperative with the magic academy?

“Isn’t it necessary for teaching?”

……

Skeleton Principal’s mouth fell open.

He was a great wizard who abandoned the five desires and attained liberation, but Professor Voladi’s words shook the headmaster’s emotions.

‘That… that bastard…!’

If Professor Garcia had said something like that, Principal Skeleton would have fully understood.

Even if Professor Alpen or Professor Mortum said something like that, I could understand it to some extent.

However, when it comes to education, Professor Boladi, who is so independent as an infant to the extent of surpassing Professor Biblé Verdus, said such a thing, anger soared.

Until now, where was the Headmaster Skeleton when he hinted at rhymes, saying, ‘How about changing your mind a bit if you still have 0 students’?!

I… I…!

“?”

…nothing.

Headmaster Skeleton gave up talking to Professor Voladi.

There was only one thing I felt after being in Ein Lorgard for a long time.

Looking at the wall and saying it only hurts your own mouth.

Professor Bible and Voladi were not the ones who were persuaded by Headmaster Skeleton.

‘Shouldn’t that guy Wardanaz have been prevented from listening to the lecture…’

Headmaster Skeleton’s non-existence made his stomach ache.

By now, Professor Voladi might be thinking, ‘Seeing that there are students who have passed the curriculum I created, I am not mistaken’.

Thinking about it gave me a headache.

let’s drive

Headmaster Skeleton approached the Phoenix.

Then, the phoenix, which was playing around in the sky, started chirping in surprise.

■■! ■■■! ■■■■ !

shut up You bastard bastard who has nothing but good riding skills. Don’t be cocky, I gave you permission to play in my garden.

Terrified, the phoenix immediately turned and started flying to the other side of Headmaster Skeleton.

But on the other side, Professor Voladi was already waiting.

Like Headmaster Skeleton, Professor Voladi, who was floating in mid-air magic, looked at the phoenix with an expressionless face.

‘Wouldn’t it be possible to pass it by?’

Headmaster Skeleton hoped that the phoenix would pass Professor Voladi.

Unlike the skeleton headmaster, who emits an overwhelming presence from the soul, Professor Voladi is not a monster that has lived since ancient times.

Besides, Professor Voladi is a battle mage who has reached the stage.

He was a wizard who reached the heights of controlling his emotions and not revealing them.

Then even the phoenix might pass by without feeling threatened…

Whoops!

The phoenix immediately turned and flew away.

Headmaster Skeleton blinked in embarrassment.

…Have you ever attacked that phoenix?

“I was trying to catch it.”

……

Skeleton Principal let out a deep sigh.

I saw the phoenix, which had fled far away, enter the main building of the magic school.

“Close it!”

As the phoenix entered the building, Lee Han shouted to the students.

Despite the fact that the front door of the main building closed with a heavy sound, the phoenix did not panic.

Rather, it flew to the students as if to play.

“Wardanaz! What should I do now?”

“I have to hold onto it.”

“After you catch me?”

“You have to hold on until you’re exhausted.”

“…uh? Is that all?”

* * *

Iunrade, a glorious imperial official, smiled and told the escorts.

“Everybody has nothing to worry about. Ein Lorgard is not such a dangerous place.”

“Even if you say that…”

“A colleague of mine was in charge of escorting a government official going to Einrogard before, but he never said anything about Einrogard after that.”

The adventurers hired as escorts looked very nervous.

Experienced and seasoned adventurers knew what was relatively safe and what was dangerous in the Empire.

…And Einrogard was one of the most dangerous areas in the Empire for adventurers.

It wasn’t because they had a harsh natural environment or because powerful monsters appeared.

It was just because there were so many eccentric wizards among the magicians of Einrogard.

But to think I had to go inside that Einrogard.

Even if I tried not to be nervous, I couldn’t help but be nervous.

“Everyone is very worried. I didn’t want to say this, but actually I’m from Ein Lorgard.”

Iunrade revealed his school to the adventurers.

It was determined that this could alleviate the anxiety.

But it backfired.

“…!!”

“They say they’re from Einrogard!”

“Isn’t this request received by mistake?”

“Th… But it’s a request from the Empire, so can you say that we are dedicated to Einrogard?”

“It’s not something you can trust unconditionally because it’s a request from the Empire!”

“……”

The fact that he was a wizard from Einrogard made the adventurers even more frightened.

The adventurers trembled fearing that Iunrade would catch them and hand them over as test subjects. Iunrade had to spend hours convincing them.

“…You see? I’m not going to turn it over as a test subject, but I’m going to work as an imperial official now.”

“That… I see…”

“I’ll believe it…”

The adventurers nodded their heads hesitantly. Seeing that, Iunrade held back a sigh.

‘Anyway, it’s hard to work because of the rumors.’

As an imperial bureaucrat, it was a simple mission to check the actual status of magic school students, but I never thought adventurers would be so frightened.

Anyway, rumors were complicating things.

“There are many false rumors about Einrogard. Don’t be quick to believe. Do you understand?”

“Yes…”

“Then. Wasn’t the case that all the goats in the villages around Einrogard turned into demons that was published in the imperial newspaper last year was also a rumor?”

“ah. It was an unfortunate accident.”

“……”

“……”

The adventurers looked at each other.

Then, cautiously, he asked again.

“Was the case of a black magician from Ein Rogarde who broke into the Knights Graveyard and tried to steal the corpse, which was published in the imperial newspaper the year before last, also a rumor?”

“That actually happened, but given the number of graduates, isn’t it possible for at least one person to make a mistake?”

“…That’s right!”

“You are right!”

The adventurers nodded and giggled behind them. The eyes and face were full of fear and horror, but Iunrade didn’t notice.

‘I’ll be there in an hour.’

Iunrade looked around the familiar road and checked the sky. It was not yet dawn, but soon it was time for dawn to come.

The final exams will start this week, so it means I arrived on time, but…

“Come on! Everyone, please cheer up.”

“All right. Wizard.”

“As long as we have received silver, we do our job thoroughly.”

The adventurers nodded and brandished their lanterns to open the way.

It’s a well-paved Imperial Road, but you have to be careful when it’s dark like this. A monster could pop out from the nearby grass.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

“!??!!”

“In battle formation!”

A huge monster suddenly jumped out with a roar, and the adventurers were frightened and drew their weapons.

However, Iunrade stopped the adventurers.

“There is no need to fight.”

“yes???”

“Look at the letter engraved on your shoulder. Chimera who ran away from magic school. There is a ban on attacking people.”

“……”

“……”

The adventurers looked at Iunrade with eyes filled with many emotions.

It was surprising to recognize the letters engraved on the shoulder in this darkness, but more than that…

‘A chimera escaped from the magic school, is it so calming?’

“That… Mage. Shouldn’t you call the guard?”

“haha. You don’t have to. It’s not like that.”

“…okay!”

how long has it been

The huge walls and main gate of the magic school finally caught my eye.

As soon as I opened the front door, a certain monster came rolling over, howling.

“■■■■! ■■! ■■■■ ■■■!”

“?!??”

“Back in battle formation…”

“There is no need to fight.”

“yes???”

“I am a 4th year student who failed the transformation magic. I will be back soon.”

“……”

“……”

The adventurers gave up being surprised any longer.

I didn’t seem to be surprised by anything now.

Ki Ik-

The door to the main building opened.

Then, inside, some young students were panting while holding the phoenix tightly with grim faces.

The adventurers looked at Iunrade and said as if they would not be surprised this time.

“I guess this is a magic school event?”

“Do you think that is necessary to become a wizard?”

“…what the hell is that thing doing, principal?!?!”

Iunrade was frightened and looked at the skeleton headmaster and asked.

Anyway, this was too bad!
