Qualities of an Assistant Professor (2)
“Therefore, in the process of converting pure elemental magic, increasing the understanding of the system and attributes... ... .”
A cold impression, as if not a single drop of blood would come out even if stabbed.
A cold expression and a firm tone. As an educator, he has an appearance that seems perfectly suited to guiding students strictly.
Lennok leaned against the back of the room with Cassia, looking down as Bayla taught the students.
“how is it?”
Cassia turned her head slightly and asked.
Lennok asked.
“What?”
“I was curious about how our director’s lectures compare to Professor Aris.”
I couldn’t stand the bored look, so that’s why I asked. Lennok also smiled because he understood that feeling to some extent.
Cassia is a 5th level wizard who has not yet risen to the level of military rank, but her knowledge and research level are to the extent that she occupies the second place under Bayla.
Considering Bayla’s strict temperament, she must also be an excellent talent with considerable skills and knowledge at the same time.
It was only natural that the contents of the lectures tailored to the eye level of these undergraduate students would not catch the eye.
“I’ve been snooping here and there to find out, but Professor Aris has a very good reputation with students as much as his skills and talents.”
Cassia’s face full of curiosity.
“He and I aren’t close, to the point where I doubt how such a perfect person can exist.”
It is not unreasonable for Cassia to think so.
Actually, the age difference between Cassia and Aris isn’t that great, but the two people’s realms were more than two ranks apart.
It’s not that Cassia isn’t excellent, it’s just that Aris’ level is abnormally fast for her age.
Considering that most of the superhumans who reached level 6 in this city had lived well over 40 years, it was only natural at first glance.
However, Lennok had never thought that Aris was such a perfect person.
“Hmm perfect... ... .”
Aris’ talent and disposition are truly outstanding, but in Lennok’s opinion, her good disposition is far from perfect.
Perfecting oneself means digging deep into one’s inner self.
From that point of view, it was clear that Aris, who was interested in cultivating younger students and blooming the talents of others, was a rare type among the wizards Lennok knew.
Of course, I know that he has risen to the level of an Aspect Wizard because he has not let go of his essence, but the
laxity of removing one important experimental tool every time he conducts research with Lennok is far from perfect.
But instead of continuing with that thought, Lennok cleverly changed the topic based on what Cassia had said.
“It’s much better than I thought.”
“yes?”
“Director Bayla’s teaching skills. Or should I say attitude?”
Lennok said softly, looking down at Bayla’s banging on the blackboard.
“It’s not strange for a magician who has risen to that level to have a self-righteous disposition to some extent, but the content the director is teaching now doesn’t deviate much from the existing curriculum.”
“... ... .”
“No, rather, it seems that you are trying to conduct a lecture based on our professor’s thesis rather than the director himself. The overall lecture content is thoroughly focused on the transformation and understanding of elemental magic.”
After Lennok said that, he looked back at Cassia, whose mouth was slightly open.
“Is there anything wrong with what I said?”
“... ... no. I was rather surprised at how accurate it was.”
Cassia shook her head slightly and came to her senses.
“That word was almost identical to what the director just said to me right before he gave the lecture.”
“It is not difficult. Anyone who knows both of you would think so. It’s just that I didn’t know that the director would respect Professor Richellen’s curriculum that much.”
To the extent that even Lennok, who didn’t have a good opinion of Bayla, acknowledged it, she was following Aris’ curriculum thoroughly.
As the lecture is conducted on a semester basis, it is unknown what Aris was actually trying to teach this semester.
At least, Aris is trying to teach principles and knowledge based on the achievements she has made through her dissertation, and try her hand at application.
That would have been impossible without Bayla acknowledging and respecting Aris as much.
‘I wonder if the words that warned me at that time were purely because I was worried about Aris... ... . I mean, he’s not that selfish.’
It must be because Aris, not anyone else, is a person that can be trusted to the extent of entrusting her professorship.
Lennok needed to put aside some of his prejudice against her if he was going to keep going to the university while Bayla held the interim professorship.
Bayla glanced at Lennok and put down the pen she was holding.
“Let’s take a break for a while. Evan Assistant Professor. ahead of me.”
“... ... .”
Mayla, who had a look of thought for a moment, nodded happily, wondering if his confident attitude rather liked her.
“Are you saying you can leave that method to me? If it’s arrogance or self-confidence that made me want to test it, then it’s quite an insult. Cassia!”
“... ... “Chief?”
Looking at her as she walked out with a slightly confused expression, Bayla said.
“My assistant said that he has been thinking about working for a long time, so you should help.”
Bayla glanced back at Lennok and smiled meaningfully.
“As an assistant professor, I will check how well I have assisted Aris. It’s a thesis published by Aris, so of course you understand the contents, right?”
* * *
Above the lecture hall podium after recess.
Lennok and Cassia stood side by side in front of the undergraduates who had returned to their seats.
“Attention everyone.”
Byla tapped the church lightly to draw attention, then opened her mouth.
“Before the lecture resumes, there will be a demonstration by the two assistant professors regarding the transformation and application of elemental magic discussed so far.”
She explained as she walked slowly in front of Lennok and Bayla.
“The biggest issue in the Department of Elements recently is the organic transformation of magic power and power. It is about reducing the cost incurred in the process to the limit and actually handling the two power sources at the same level. Everyone knows, right?”
Bayla scanned the understudy with an expressionless gaze.
“Because Professor Aris Richellen recently published a paper that shook the academic world, dealing with this theme.”
“... ... .”
The undergraduates swallowed their saliva with slightly nervous expressions.
“Since the thesis became a hot topic, it has gone through a lot of empirical evidence and is now being established as a theory. Sooner or later, it will be officially incorporated into the curriculum you will learn. You can consider this demonstration today as a taster for him.”
‘He’s good at making up plausible words.’
Lennok listened to Vaila with a grim expression, then looked down at the massive machine in front of him.
The size of a giant dog. The machine, a complex network of pipes and suction pipes, wriggles and exhales like a living creature even at this moment.
And another machine that looked exactly the same was placed in front of Cassia.
“This equipment, which was airlifted through the sponsorship of the Carlyle Research Institute, is a hybrid magical fusion engine to increase efficiency through the mixed use of horsepower and electricity.”
Bayla pointed to the two machines on top of the church and said.
“The performance itself is great, but it’s so tricky that it won’t work properly unless a high-ranking magician directly starts the engine.”
It was only then that Lennok, realizing what she was trying to get him to do, tilted his head slightly.
Cassia turned to Lennok with a slightly apologetic expression.
“From now on, I’m going to show you how these two assistant professors breathe life into this tricky guy. We’ve got an inside spectator camera set up so everyone can see it clearly.”
At the same time, the projector is turned on over the white wall above the blackboard, revealing the internal structure of the two engines.
A situation where only the motions for minimum maintenance are repeated, but the power that exists inside does not exist at all.
Lennok lifted his head and looked at it with a little admiration.
‘It’s much more plausible than I thought.’
It was because the method Bayla chose to test Lennok was much more rational and in a format for students than Lennok had thought.
In this way, it is possible to clearly show undergraduate students the process and effect of the substitution of magical power and power that was actually announced through Aris, and it is possible to prove that capital is actually moving through this method and that practical magic
engineering development is possible. do.
Apart from not liking Lennok, did he make sure he was doing what he had to do?
At the same time, it is neat to take care of its own victory by putting forward Cassia, who has already touched this engine several times.
Considering that this whole series of processes proceeded as naturally as flowing water, Lennok couldn’t help but laugh as well.
I didn’t really like Bayla’s disapproval of Lennok, but I was satisfied with her ability to keep her place while making some distinction between public and private affairs.
Anyone with this level of skill and passion would do their best to guide the undergraduate students, even if it was just a temporary substitute for Aris.
Aris was also aware of this to some extent, so it must have been that she handed over the professorship to Bayla and no one else.
“Assistant Professor Evan, are you ready?”
There was already a strange smile on Bayla’s face as she turned around, confident in victory.
Lennox smiled freely and nodded.
“of course.”
However, if there is one fact that Bayla did not think of after thoroughly considering the number of all these cases.
It is that Lennock himself was the one who took charge of writing this thesis from beginning to end.
“Then let’s begin.”
It was impossible for Lennok to lose this bet as long as she brought up this theme.
