Chapter 20
020
As they continue to be in the Wodanaj family, how bluff the imperial nobles are.They had forgotten that they were a race that liked to play.
Imperial nobles value honor over life, and they pride themselves on having a luxurious meal even on the verge of bankruptcy!
‘Ah-oh. You suffered needlessly.’
“It’s great! Two of them came out of the Blue Dragon Tower.”
“?”
Ian looked to the side.
The princess was also holding her hand. Not only that, she was also staring at Lee Han.
And those eyes weren’t very friendly. There was a cold feeling in his blue eyes.
‘what?’
Ian was deep in thought.
Being hated by the princess, one of the top talents in the Blue Dragon Tower, was not very beneficial.
And Lee Han had no memory of doing anything wrong to the princess.
Rather, he was merely showing kindness.
He also caught a wild boar and talked about useful lectures for students …
‘I made a plan on how to get help with assignments and exams in the future. Why are you doing that? Is it because I went around with Gainando?’
tuk tuk-
“Wordanaz.”
Asan Dalkad said softly.
“Wordanaj, the princess seems to believe the strange rumors circulating about you.”
“A strange rumor?”
“Rumor that you are looking for a way to be lazy without being preoccupied with magic. It’s nonsense.”
Asan had an angry expression on her face, as if it were her own.
Lee Han, who came from the Wodanaj family, couldn’t do that.
But Ian was surprised.
‘no. correct? How did know?’
It’s so accurate that I get goosebumps!
And Lee Han didn’t feel that this was particularly dishonorable.
because it was true
But Asan seemed very, very angry at this nonsense and nonsense.
“I was disappointed with the princess over this. Of course, the person who spread these rumors is the worst, but you believe in such nonsense.”
“No what… can you believe it?”
“…?!”
Asan was astonished.
Wodanaz…
How generous are you!
It is said that the students of Blue Dragon Tower are from a family of great aristocrats, but there was no student who showed the appearance of nobles like Wodanaj in front of Asan now.
Asan realized again why his family sent Asan to this school.
He must have sent him to meet such a friend.
“You are a really great guy. Wodanaz.”
“??”
Lee Han was puzzled by Asan’s reaction.
‘What did I eat wrong?’
* * * *
“Light!”
“Shine.”
Lee Han and the princess succeeded in the <Light Generation> magic.
At the tip of the wand, a sphere-shaped glowing mass of light appeared and stayed there like a lantern.
The princess’s <Light Generation> magic felt cool and distinct, and Lee Han’s <Light Generation> magic felt like the sun was burning intensely.
Professor Garcia clapped her hands in delight.
“Very well done! It’s rare for students to succeed in glow magic in the first week. I am happy to have met such talented people. Of course, that doesn’t mean you need to fret or be disappointed. Luminous magic is the most basic magic among circle 1 magic, and it is a magic that lets you know what magic is. A little early or a little late won’t run the magic path.”
‘It sounds not very convincing.’
Ian thought so.
Of course, as Professor Garcia said, this <Light Generation> magic didn’t make it impossible to evaluate the talents of the students.
Comparing with math, getting used to addition quickly doesn’t mean that you can solve complex math problems like calculus well later.
However, such a word could not have come from the students who are now full of competition.
In fact, everyoneI’ll cook it before the other towers!’ He thought and was burning brightly.
Professor Garcia smiled and continued his speech.
“The reason I learned the <Light Generation> magic first is because the magic we will learn this semester is elemental magic. You may have subconsciously learned the art of using elemental magic while learning the <Light Generation> magic.”
“!”
The students straightened their posture with excitement at Professor Garcia’s words.
Elemental magic!
Elemental magic was basically magic that included easy attributes such as fire, water, earth, and wind, to difficult attributes such as darkness and plants.
And this elemental magic served as a solid foundation before learning other complex and difficult magic.
Do you want to summon a spirit?
If you want to summon a fire spirit, you have to learn some fire element magic. Otherwise, the fire spirit could not be controlled.
Want to create artifacts?
In order to deal with jewels with fire properties or to put fire-related magic, of course, you had to learn some level of fire element magic.
Traveling far away or working in remote lands of the Empire?
Even with simple elemental magic, sorcerers could be treated. Lighting a campfire or preparing drinking water is an enormous amount of high-level manpower.
In this way, elemental magic, starting from the easiest to learn and being easy to apply to other magic, was playing the role of basic education that all new wizards should learn and pass.
If I had to compare it, it was similar to learning addition and subtraction to learn other higher studies.
“Today we will practice the <Light Generation> magic, but at the same time we will have you test various basic elemental magics. Each person has an element that suits their aptitude, and it is important to find that element.”
The students shouted with excitement.
In fact, wizards did not need to learn all magic. You only need to learn the fields you are interested in and want to learn.
So, rather than learning all elemental magic, it was a better way to find an element that suits you and learn it diligently.
This was the reason why Professor Garcia was not obsessed with the <Light Generation> magic.
“ruler. then…”
When Professor Garcia struck the classroom floor with his giant wand, a candle lit up and lit in front of each student.
“The trick is the same as the last <Light Generation>. But this time, it’s different to make the fire burn, not the light. You’d better be a little more careful. Unlike light, fire can burn people.”
gulp-
Some students looked nervous.
“With the incantation from the heart… Burn!”
A blazing fireball appeared in front of Professor Garcia. It was a mysterious, magical fire burning alone without any firewood.
“ruler. Everyone try it There is nothing to fear too much. Because I am by your side.”
“Fire!”
“Eagle…”
“Sizzling…”
“Hurry up…”
The students concentrated and tried to come up with the image of ‘fire’.
A few keen students realized Professor Garcia’s intentions and put their hands close to the candle or stared at the flickering candle.
When you focus your mind, it is much easier to create an image when the object is actually nearby.
He recalls the image of fire with the unique mental power of a wizard.
I chant the spell with a strong will to draw out magic power and create that fire!
Lee Han also tried to cook the fire with concentration. Unlike <Light Generation>, I was planning to learn it normally without being deceived by others.
“for a moment. for a moment.”
“?”
thatHowever, Professor Garcia stopped Lee Han.
“Student Lee. Students should not practice speaking spells.”
“???”
Ian was puzzled.
Come to think of it, there was no candle in front of Lee Han. Instead, there was gurgling water in a copper bowl.
“Why?”
“Because it’s dangerous.”
“……”
Ian realized.
When she practiced the <Light Generation> magic, she often failed to control and the light exploded.
It was only a little dazzling, but it didn’t matter if the light exploded.
But what if the flame explodes?
‘Well. Many will die.’
Lee Han nodded in agreement. That was the reason he couldn’t help but understand.
“I think it would be good to do that when the control over magic power increases and the sense of the elements becomes more sophisticated.”
“understand.”
“Until then, practice the <Water Generation> magic. Even if the <Water Generation> magic fails, it’s not that dangerous.”
water.
Like flame, it was one of the representative elements.
Although it may be difficult to clearly conceive the image of metal or lightning, there are few people who cannot imagine the image of water.
So easy and familiar elements.
Moreover, unlike fire, it was not dangerous when it failed.
However…
‘Water is a bit subtle.’
Disadvantages of Water Elemental Magic.
That’s not cool…
…not.
‘It’s there, but its usefulness is subtle.’
The point was that the usefulness was a bit subtle.
attack?
Fire or lightning was better.
defense?
Soil or metal was better.
If I had to pick out the strengths, there was a point that I could make my own drinking water when I was traveling, but…
‘It’s a really subtle advantage.’
For Lee Han, whose goal was to sit at a job as an imperial wizard with sweet honey that he could eat raw, such a surviving use was rather subtle.
But what to do?
He could not burn the surroundings while practicing flames.
“Spring up!”
“Wordanaz. envy. You are receiving special instruction from the professor.”
Asan, who was practicing next to me, said as if envious.
Of course, it sounded like nonsense to Lee Han.
‘Does this look like a special teaching?’
Lee Han also wanted to learn fire magic just like everyone else.
The use of subtle elemental magic…
“Spring up!”
“Spring up!”
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
On just the third attempt, a water ball appeared in the air.
“!?”

Not a drop of water, but a lump of water the size of a fist!
Lee Han was surprised as well as Professor Garcia.

No matter how successful the light-emitting magic was, I got used to it, but the water creation magic was successful in the third time.
It wasn’t easy to see.
Besides, it’s not a drop of water, it’s a chunk of water the size of a fist.
This was only possible if his aptitude with the element was really well matched.
‘awesome!’
“Look everyone here! Student Han Lee succeeded in the elemental water magic!”
“Wow…!”
“Awesome!”
“After all, Wodanaj!”
The Blue Dragon Tower students looked at Lee Han’s magic with a happy expression and the White Tiger Tower students frowned and jealous.
clap clap-
Professor Garcia said with applause.
“Student Lee Han is great. I would like everyone to imitate it. But everyone. You don’t need to be nervous. There is an element that suits each aptitude. If you find an element that suits your aptitude, you will quickly learn the trick. A student who grows up in a volcanic area or a blacksmith is exposed to flames, a student who grows up near a river or beach to water, and a student who grows up in a desolate land blown by strong winds…
Lee Han, who was listening, was puzzled.
‘I’m not really from a river or a beach, am I?’
The only memories related to water in life are the memories of drinking water from a professor.there was no
Is it just your natural personality that goes well with water?
It wasn’t bad, but somehow…
‘It would have been better if it matched well with rare attributes such as lightning or ice.’
Some of the advantages are advantages, but it is a subtle advantage, so it felt strange.
I suddenly felt her gaze, and when I looked next to her, the princess quickly turned her head. She seemed to have just stared.
‘?’
As I thought about something else, a lump of water that had formed in the air lost its shape and splattered onto the floor.
Professor Garcia nodded and said.
“I think the next task for Han Lee is to create water, then hold it in shape and fix it.”
“All right. professor.”
If you knew the tricks of creating water, it was a little easier to stay focused on it.
Lee Han answered without thinking.
Then, out of nowhere, I asked a question.
“professor. How long should it be maintained and fixed?”
“ah. The mana will be exhausted first without the need to ask like that… No. Wait.”
In general, new wizards tend to run out of mana before concentration.
But this freshman in front of me is the exact opposite.
She had an enormous amount of magical power, so it couldn’t be.
Professor Garcia nodded his head and happily answered.
“I think I should keep it until the end of class and fix it!”
“…???”
Lee Han doubted his ears.
uh…
Isn’t that corporal punishment?
