Chapter 426
Chapter 426
The summoned Professor Verduus stared blankly at the skull principal.
The skull principal sighed first at his attitude of not knowing at all what he had done wrong.
“Beavle, Beavle... How many times have I told you?”
"What?"
“To do the minimum preparation. I'm not trying to interfere with your research. I'm just saying let's do the basics. Okay?”
"I prepared diligently?!"
Professor Verduus retorted as if he was wronged.
The skull principal endured once more and said.
“Usually, when I tell you to do the minimum preparation... it doesn't mean to exploit a 1st-year disciple.”
"But the others are idiots?"
The 'others' Professor Verduus was referring to were his so-called disciples.
Yi-Han's seniors learning enchantment magic!
Originally, these seniors should have helped Professor Verduus with his work, prepared for lectures, and taught the juniors, but...
As you know, in the imperial magic world, disciples usually took after their masters.
The disciples who remained under a master like Professor Verduus to continue enchantment magic were naturally bound to be students similar to Professor Verduus.
-I don't know what the professor is doing, but I'll make my own artifact.-
-The professor went to the punishment room? No wonder there was an extra chair. Then I should use this chair.-
Since Professor Verduus didn't expect any deep respect from his disciples, their relationship should be seen as just mages using the same workshop rather than a traditional master-disciple relationship.
In fact, it was even worse. At least mages in the same workshop would show some concern if one of them disappeared.
There was no way such seniors would help with the work. If Professor Verduus called them, there was a very high possibility that they would just ignore him without any response.
“They're not idiots, it's because you taught them that way.”
"No matter how I taught them, if they're not idiots, they would have done well on their own. Look at Wardanaz."
“...”
The skull principal felt a headache coming on for the first time in a long time.
Professor Bagrak, who looked at Yi-Han and was convinced that 'my teachings were not wrong,' and Professor Verduus, who looked at Yi-Han and was convinced that 'since he's doing well on his own, it's the fault of the other idiots,' were really...
These guys should be left alone to suffer the consequences, but they were smugly meeting a crazy disciple by luck.
“Shut up and do the preparation for 2nd year and above by yourself.”
"Wardanaz is capable of doing it too..."
“I know that too. I can see it.”
"Then why?"
“I can't stand the sight of you leaving it to your disciple and getting comfortable.”
The skull principal spoke honestly.
Professor Verduus looked at the skull principal, wondering how he could have such bad thoughts.
"Professor. Don't keep going elsewhere. Do you think I'll prepare alone if you say that? Quickly, the reagents... oh. Principal. What are you doing?"
“I'm telling him not to make you do the preparation for higher-year lectures.”
"Haha. Don't joke around."
Yi-Han snorted as if it was absurd.
At that attitude, the skull principal reflected on his actions a little.
—
"Huh?"
"Strange?"
The students taking enchantment magic were surprised by the lecture hall's appearance, which was different from usual.
Books were prepared in advance at each seat, magic circles were prepared for indirectly experiencing magic, and reagents and metals were neatly arranged for testing magic.
Seeing that, the students logically concluded.
"Did we enter the wrong lecture hall?"
"But the professor is over there?"
Beaver mixed-bloods were not a common race. The students looked around in confusion.
"Wardanaz. Do you happen to know what's going on?"
Wardanaz was always quick to get information in such situations. His friends asked, wondering if he might know something.Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com
Yi-Han nodded his head and answered.
"Today's enchantment magic lecture is not about engraving with magic circles, but directly enchanting with spells. As the difficulty increases, auxiliary magic circles, reference books, and practice materials are prepared."
The method of directly engraving magic circles on objects was a kind friend that reduced the effort of mages preparing complex magic.
Naturally, the difficulty of magic that was cast with spells increased greatly.
Even more so, the mage had to directly weave the mana structure that was engraved one by one with magic circles along with the spell.
"I see... Wait. Wardanaz. How do you know this?"
"It's Wardanaz. You'll know when you see it."
"I prepared it."
"..."
"..."
Indeed, considering that he helped the professor prepare to that extent, it would have been more strange if someone of Wardanaz's skill level hadn't mastered it.
"But the professor is a bit."
Rowena was a relatively honorable one among the White Tiger Tower (self-proclaimed) knights.
So she didn't say any more, but everyone present could tell.
"Hmm. He is a bit like that."
Yi-Han gave up and decided to just explain.
In fact, it was true that he had become able to use it to some extent thanks to practicing while preparing with Professor Verduus.
"The method I use isn't necessarily the correct answer, so just keep it in mind. First the light element, then elemental attribute conversion, and then enchantment. This order seems to be the best. The point to be careful about when enchanting is that since you're not borrowing the power of a magic circle, the mana consumption may be severe."
"How severe is the mana consumption?"
"I don't know. I don't feel it. The book said it was like that."
"..."
"..."
The White Tiger Tower students stared intently at Yi-Han, but Yi-Han ignored them.
"So don't invest too much mana in the light element or attribute conversion. In the first place, magic cast with such spells can only have weak effects. Think of it as reducing the effect in exchange for increasing the speed and casting time..."
"Thank you."
Rowena bowed her head.
Yi-Han's teachings clearly had an effect, as progress was noticeably visible. Then another White Tiger Tower student asked.
"Wardanaz. Can I ask you too?"
"Oh. Then me too."
"...It's all good, but let me practice too."
"?!"
"?!?"
The White Tiger Tower students were startled.
Even Professor Verduus was startled.
"What?! You haven't mastered it all yet!?"
"...I might not have mastered it..."
Yi-Han held back from saying 'you brat.'
If only the White Tiger Tower students were present, it would have slipped out.
"Why haven't you mastered it?!"
"Ignore what the professor says."
"You endure it, Wardanaz."
The White Tiger Tower students desperately appeased Yi-Han.
It was their loss if Yi-Han got angry.
Asking Professor Verduus would only result in him teaching like a dog...
"But what haven't you mastered? The wind barrier magic?"
"I haven't seen Wardanaz use the wind element though."
"Is it the earth element? Wardanaz. If you have any questions, ask me."
Salko, a student from another tower, also turned his gaze as if he was curious.
"."
"?"
"??"
His friends tilted their heads.
Professor Verduus also tilted his head.
"It's the easiest, you stu..."
"You, you might not be able to!"
The White Tiger Tower students desperately changed the trajectory of the conversation.
"It's unexpectedly difficult, right! It doesn't dwell well for me either! It's quite hard to make it dwell in a material that doesn't usually dwell..."
"It does dwell though."
"Huh?"
His friends were puzzled.
If he could make the heat dwell in , wasn't there nothing particularly difficult?
"Then where are you stuck? Tell me, Wardanaz. I can help..."
Yi-Han waved his staff.
Then the staff started burning from the inside.
It wasn't that the flames were directly lit, but rather, the heat couldn't be endured and it caught fire from the inside.
"...doesn't seem to be."
"Ke, keep it up!"
