Horsepower.

Mana Magic In some tribes in the eastern part of the country, scholars who like to form ‘ki’ form, ether stubborn priests call it divine power, and this power with many nicknames was the source of wizards.

The power to change the world!

As they had to draw out and consume the mana within themselves every time they used magic, it was only natural that young wizards who had no skills and no skills would suffer from a lack of magic.

But I tried up to the 7th, and I was standing still.

“What is the student’s name?”

“This is Lee Han.”

Troll Professor Garcia laughed lightly.

He liked the way he said his name instead of his family name.

nobility. It was also rare among those from great aristocrats who did not mention their family name.

He is a person who fits well with one of the school’s ideologies, ‘equality’.

“Come here.”

“Uh…”

Lee Han approached with anxiety.

‘Should I have just stumbled?’

It was true that I was a bit puzzled as I was standing alone when everyone else was staggering with magic.

He wondered if he hadn’t used his magic properly.

“hmm. hmm. okay.”

Garcia grabbed Yihan’s wrist and nodded, and Guinando, who was behind him, whispered to Yoner.

“hey. Aren’t you supposed to save me?? What if I swallow that??”

“…Professor, I’ll hear it all, so be quiet, you idiot.”

“!?”

Garcia let go of his wrist and said.

“Students who have finished, please stay for a while.”

“ah. yes.”

After that, < Understanding Basic Magic > didn’t do much magic training.

Instead, Professor Garcia sternly preached the mindset of a wizard.

“When you use up all your mana, you must rest unconditionally. Especially when your skills are still lacking! Don’t fret over your lack of horsepower. If you train, the amount of mana will increase, and if you have tips, the consumption of mana will decrease. There are always cases among freshmen who are full of motivation and secretly practice magic and then collapse. If you’re unlucky, you can get seriously hurt, so you shouldn’t do that. and students. I do not swallow students.”

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry.”

Gainando trembled and apologized.

“ruler. Today’s lecture ends here. In addition to the required lectures, other optional lectures are being held all over the school, so go listen to them and think about what you will learn. If you’re not sure, you can come to my room and ask.”

“……”

“……”

The students exchanged glances.

-Can you go to the half-troll professor’s office and talk 1:1?

-Are you crazy?

…It was the same exchange of glances.

“Wardanaz. be careful.”

“that’s right. A troll’s weakness is fire and acid.”

“Aren’t you both here?”

“…Wardanaz. be careful.”

Listening to the cheers of other students, Han Lee stood in front of Professor Garcia.

“Actually, I heard about student Lee Han first.”

“??”

At the unexpected words, Lee Han hesitated.

what?

“Would it be faster if I told the principal that I heard it?”

“…!”

Lee-han’s face hardened when he heard from the crazy principal Rich.

Professor Garcia said with a laugh. Sёarch* The ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Nothing to worry about. There are times when the principal looks like a bit of a crazy bastard, but he is fundamentally a good person.”

“…yes??”

does that make sense?

However, Professor Garcia pretended not to hear.

“The headmaster looks over the new students at the beginning of each year and briefly tells the professors.”

Unbeknownst to the students, Principal Rich had a very sharp eye.

The new students entering this school are various boys and girls who have just become adults in the empire.

A sharp eye is needed to prevent accidents from happening.

-Be careful with that dwarf. Apparently, he burns down his dorm room three times.

-under! That’s a demon hybrid. Professors who use divine magic beware. so that you don’t get hurt.

-Isn’t that a pickpocket belonging to the < White Crow > guild? Be careful professors. Surely no one will come to complain about being pickpocketed by a student? A man like that would be thrown into a dungeon.

Of course, there were several professors who ignored the principal’s words.

Principal Rich had a sharp eye…

but he also had a lunatic personality.

-That orc guy… For some reason, I think he’ll be good at using a spear.

– You are from a famous swordsmanship family for generations?

– Shut up! Tell them to use the window.

-……

Such a principal said about Lee Han.

– That guy has the qualities of Daewoo (大愚).

-…??

Daewoo (大愚).

I meant very stupid.

Of course, the professors weren’t stupid enough to take that word for granted.

Among the proverbs of the eastern part of the Empire, there was a famous proverb.

– Daewoo (大愚) means great wisdom (大智).

A very foolish look has a corner that connects with a very wise look.

It was an old adage to seek true wisdom and not be fooled by appearances.

If so, what the principal meant then.

– It’s hard to understand now, but you can see the qualities that will be great later.

The reaction of the professors present was divided in half.

‘Looking at you talking like that, you must have some talent’ or ‘Did you get a big drink from the Wodanaz family yesterday’.

And Professor Garcia seemed to know now what the principal meant.

‘That’s what I meant.’

“Uh… what did the principal say?”

Lee Han became slightly ominous.

Being favored by a professor had both advantages and disadvantages.

If you were favored, you could get good grades and letters of recommendation. This is an advantage that cannot be ignored.

But…

If you receive more than a certain amount of affection, the following conversation will begin.

-guy. Your talent is such a waste to rot.

-thank you!

-okay. You should go to graduate school!

-yes? I’ve never thought about it…

-Do you know how fierce the competition is if you go out and get a job? If you go to graduate school and get a degree, you can get a job with better conditions and, above all, you can sell your favorite studies more deeply. How good is it?

– It seems like that because you say so.

It would have been better if I met a good-natured professor.

If you meet the evil mad professor, hell begins.

And Principal Rich…

‘He’s someone I’d never want to get close to.’

Lee Han wanted to graduate with stable grades and good personal connections, but he did not want to go down the questionable path of magic because he became friendly with the skeleton headmaster.

“ah. sorry. I can’t just tell you what the principal said… Instead, I’ll tell you about your talent. What the principal told me is a story similar to this.”

“!”

Lee Han opened his eyes wide at Professor Troll’s words.

It’s Lee Han’s talent.

‘Was my talent… enough to say so separately?’

When he was with the Wodanaz family, Lee Han had never heard anything about talent.

Of course, it was confirmed that he had magical abilities.

Because Lee Han’s father, the head of the Wardanaz family, also said this.

– How do you like my talent?

-hmm. Your magic talent is pretty decent.

-thank you.

And that was it.

However, I was a bit embarrassed to hear that he suddenly started talking about his talent.

‘Isn’t this a bad story?’

Lee Han began to seriously consider whether he should set up an alchemy workshop after receiving investment from Yoner.

“Student Lee Han has a lot of magic power.”

“…yes? Is that all?”

Lee Han was bewildered.

It wasn’t things like ‘There’s a problem with casting magic’ or ‘I can’t use light property magic because light property magic doesn’t suit me constitutionally’, it’s just that there’s a lot of magic power.

It’s fortunate that it’s not a bad thing, but…

I wondered if I needed to say it separately.

‘Did you know that each person’s innate magical power is different and can be overcome with training and tips? Is it important enough to talk about it separately?’

“Of course that’s not all.”

“Ah… I see, too.”

“Student Lee Han’s magic power is really, really, really high.”

“…???”

“Really, insanely, extremely, very, very much?”

“oh.”

It was only then that Lee Han could understand why Professor Garcia called him separately and spoke seriously.

* * *

After hearing the detailed explanation, Lee Han thought.

‘Isn’t that nice?’

To use magic, mana was needed.

If there is not enough mana, it is necessary to replace it by drawing in the mana spread outside, collecting mana separately in a magic circle, or using a mana stone containing mana.

But if you had a lot of mana, there was no need for that.

A very useful talent for a mage…

“It’s unfortunate.”

“???”

However, Professor Garcia was looking at Lee Han with a mixture of pity and concern.

The look in his eyes made Lee Han realize that something was going wrong.

“Isn’t it good to have a lot of horse power?”

“Usually more is better. However, there are really a lot of Lee Han students. Water in a glass bottle is so easy to handle, but wouldn’t it be very difficult to control the water in a huge ocean?”

At Professor Garcia’s words, Lee Han realized the seriousness of the situation and hardened his expression.

So now…?

‘The magic difficulty goes up like crazy?’

Right now, not a single student has succeeded in learning the very simple magic of ‘luminescence’ today.

That’s why magic was a difficult study.

Drawing out mana, concentrating, binding with will…

All of this requires superhuman concentration.

However, when the amount of magic power increased uncontrollably, the level of difficulty increased.

“ruler. Get this bracelet here.”

A rough and heavy iron bracelet.

Professor Garcia put a bracelet on each of Lee Han’s wrists.

“It is a bracelet that absorbs mana. It will help.”

“!”

Still, Lee Han was moved by the fact that the magic school immediately gave a solution.

“As long as you wear this, it won’t be a problem!”

“yes? no. Even if you’re wearing this, it’s going to be really hard, right?”

“……”

“It’s so powerful that I can’t help it no matter what I do. I do it because it is better than not doing it.”

Professor Garcia was a relatively kind and amiable person, but he was a wizard.

The magician never backtracked on this part.

“…Any other advice?”

“Hmm… I think it would be a little better if I used a lot of magic and consumed my mana. Student Lee Han can practice basic magic training by himself. There will never be an accident due to exhaustion of mana.”

“…thank you.”

In a way, he was granted preferential treatment, but Lee Han was not very happy.

* * *

‘Ah. Do I have to take non-magical subjects?’

It was called a magic school, but it didn’t necessarily have only magic subjects.

Even alchemy right now would be less likely to use magic.

After leaving the professor’s room, Lee Han’s head became complicated.

‘You have to set your career path well from the first year and manage your grades well so that you won’t regret it later when you graduate…’

“You came out alive!”

At the bottom of the stairs, Gainando and Yoner were waiting.

Guinando looked up and down Lee Han, as if he was genuinely worried.

“What are you looking at?”

“I’m looking to see if there are any signs of the professor biting me.”

At Yoner’s words, Lee Han looked at Gainando as if he was dumbfounded.

‘Well, looking at the skeleton headmaster, it’s strange that he doesn’t suspect the professor.’

“What did you hear?”

Yihan shrugged his shoulders at Yoner’s curious question.

“I heard you should practice magic a lot.”

“dare…!”

Gainando got angry as if it were his own business.

How dare you tell the son of a great family to practice magic a lot.

How rude that sounds!

‘If you’re angry enough to hear that, don’t you ask the professor to a duel if you can’t take the test later and ask for a retest?’

“My job is done. I want to take the electives before the next required class. Do you have any subjects in mind?”

“I am an alchemist, of course.”

At Yoner’s words, Gainando openly laughed.

“A. Alchemy is for servants and slaves!”

“……”

Lee Han could see clearly.

Yoner’s fist clenched!
