Given time, 2 hours.
Interpret the grimoire within it and complete the magic circle.
‘hmm… … .’
As Harang looked at the empty space in the grimoire, a strange thought occurred to him.
These are the things that Harang felt safe to reveal to the world, collected separately and presented to the Kaladan family.
Of course, I read it beforehand.
I couldn’t remember in detail what the magic circle looked like, but [Morning Star Eye] was drawing the magic circle in my memory in the air.
‘This seems a bit like cheating.’
It’s like looking at the answer sheet in advance and writing down your answers. However, I am at a loss for words the moment I ask where I saw it before saying I saw it in advance.
‘… … You can’t be a fool by submitting a blank paper, so you have to complete it.’
Now is the time to show off your talents by catching Professor Radiel’s attention, so you can’t look stupid.
‘Anyway, seeing as it has to be completed within 2 hours, it’s probably possible even at the level of an Arniel student.’
However, timing was an issue.
When will you complete and submit it?
Fortunately, there was one boy who became the benchmark for genius.
Harang, who thought he would submit it accordingly once Zelka completed it and submitted it, opened his magic notebook and drew a magic circle with a magic pen.
Time passed quickly.
30 minutes passed, then an hour.
No students have submitted anything yet.
On the contrary, there were occasional students who held their heads, sighed, and gave up. Jelka, too, seemed to have not finished it yet, holding her head with one hand and constantly moving her pen.
Professor Gairin walked around the classroom and checked the students’ progress.
‘Hmm… … ‘It’s as expected.’
Eighth graders at other magic schools would not even be able to understand this grimoire, but Arniel’s students surprisingly began drawing magic circles. Of course, all I could do was make the overall frame, and I had no idea about half of it, but this was amazing enough.
This was the goal of today’s class. If the students were unable to come up with an answer even after putting their minds together and thinking about it, they would assign it as a group task and ask 4 to 5 people to form a team, put their heads together, think about it, and complete it by the next class.
“ruler! Two hours have passed.”
“Ugh.”
“Ugh, I’m going crazy.”
“I don’t think I drew even a quarter of it… … .”
“You drew that much?! “Then isn’t it almost 20% complete?”
When Professor Gairan clapped to announce the end of the two hours, the students groaned.
They showed each other their magic circles and were impressed by how they were completed and what parts they had not realized, but they were also frustrated when they saw their own mistakes.
Above all, since Zelka Einglass had completed a whopping 50% of the magic circle, exclamations of exclamation burst out in succession from those around her.
“Oh, I think that’s almost right.”
“How could it be this much…?” … .”
Zelka put on a not-so-satisfied expression, but seemed satisfied on the inside. In theory, she looked like Ain Glass’s Will Zedd’s Aylka had a pouting expression on her face as if she hadn’t completed the magic circle properly, and Princess Hera El was also holding her head.
If they are that good, it is proof that there is no one better than Jelka himself in this position. He left the other students to freely look at his magic circle, and looked in the direction where Days was sitting, pretending not to care.
Several students were gathered there to look at Days’ magic circle, and their facial expressions were spectacular.
He was dripping with cold sweat with a clearly embarrassed face!
‘Ha, it looks like you barely even drew the magic circle, right?’
Today, when people around him are talking about him as a commoner-turned-magician who fights against the world’s Jelka, he has to show good results, but Days has always been lacking in theory… … .
‘Is it at most 20% complete?’
Judging by his flustered appearance, there was a possibility that he might not have completed even 10% of the work. When you submit an assignment, your progress will be revealed to everyone anyway, so do you not realize that there is no point in doing it like that?
“Yes, master. “The atmosphere over there is strange?”
“I know.”
“No, that’s not it… … .”
At the words of his followers, Zelka looked at the students gathered around Days.
Some students were covering their mouths, while others had their eyes wide open and were unable to speak.
Princess Citrine, perhaps curious about his magic circle, slowly approached him and tilted her head, but her eyes suddenly grew to the size of a tray and she looked astonished. There was something strange about it.
‘what?’
A ray of anxiety passed through Jelka’s mind.
‘That can’t be possible.’
The reason they are surprised is probably because Harang didn’t make the magic circle the worst. Because he showed a level of stupidity in theory.
Jelka strongly believed that.
“Days student? Where should we check? To what extent… … omg.”
Tuk! Even Professor Guyran checked Days’ notes, dropped his folder and covered his mouth.
She looked at the magic circle and Days in turn with very perplexed eyes, and then asked cautiously.
“… … “How on earth did you do it?”
Even a subtle desire was overflowing in Professor Gairan’s eyes as he asked that question.
As a professor at Arniel and a member of the World Magic Review Council, he covets Days’ abilities.
What on earth did Professor Gairan, a world-recognized genius theoretical scholar, do to react like that?
As a nobleman of Ainglass, he had to maintain his customs, but Jelka could not overcome his curiosity.
“Oh, master?!”
Jelka quickly got up from her seat and walked slowly towards Days’ seat. Normally, the students would have split off to both sides to make way for him, but they were unable to do so because their eyes were too busy looking at Days’ magic circle.
“Move.”
Jelka had no choice but to push them away herself and reach right in front of Days.
Just like that, Days’ old notebook came into view. On top of that… … A ‘perfectly’ completed magic circle was drawn.
It looks like a completely restored version of Zelka’s magic circle, which was only half completed.
Something like this.
It cannot be done with the help of any artifact or any magic tool. This was something that could only be done by completely mastering the theory on one’s own… … .
“under.”
Zelka’s expression distorted.
Is it anger, or is it holding back tears?
As the students slowly retreated, looking at his strangely distorted expression, Days quickly got up and submitted his notes to Professor Guyan, bowed and left the classroom.
“… … Oh yeah. Students who did not complete the assignment should form into groups of 4 to 5 people and complete the magic circle as best as they can by next week. “It’s a task.”
Professor Guyan belatedly came to his senses and gave the students an assignment.
“Oh, oops.”
“For my next lecture.”
“me too… … .”
Rumble! The students also came to their senses late and quickly left the classroom, but Zelka Einglass was unable to do so.
he is… … He was immersed in a deep sense of defeat and could not get out of it.
* * *
I was embarrassed.
I never dreamed that Professor Gairan would give a fake assignment.
Since it was supposed to be completed within 2 hours, I thought it would be possible for a student’s level, but I never would have thought that it would have been an impossible assignment and asked to complete it by the next class in the first place.
You completed the magic circle 100% without even knowing it… … .
‘I didn’t even think about doing this.’
Harang thought as he walked down the hallway to his next class.
Jelka was still just a child, and I thought that even if the rivalry was fostered in moderation, it should not be too severe.
Even if the opponent is Ainglass, who has an enmity with Kaladun.
‘It’s like winning by cheating.’
What would it have been like if I had received the assignment without reading the grimoire in advance?
It is doubtful whether at most 10% of the work could have been completed.
No matter what others thought, Harang acknowledged in his heart that he had been defeated. If I had been able to reveal that I had seen that grimoire in advance, I would have confessed honestly.
‘I have no regrets. ‘Because I have to do anything for the mission.’
Harang comforted himself, thinking that it was better. Didn’t she keep that in mind on her first day of school? She says she will do anything to get Estelle. It was a pity that Zelka felt defeated, but she couldn’t help it.
There were times when Harang felt a deep sense of defeat during his time as a professional gamer. He thought he was the best, but he would get frustrated every time he saw young, new professional gamers who were outclassed and had superior control.
After overcoming all that, Harang finally became an unrivaled champion.
You can’t become the best without adversity.
In order to become the best, you must stumble over a rock at least once, lose your footing and fall, and slowly overcome the pain little by little and become stronger.
‘Anyway, I don’t think I’m the kind of kid who will fall apart like that… … .’
Kuung-!
Harang, who was walking down the hallway, stopped when he heard a loud vibration on the floor.
The hair on the top of my head stood up, and I intuitively knew that something bad had happened.
I quickly looked out the window and saw that a building was on fire.
Why~!!
-Fire alarm! Fire alarm!
-Students of Type C class research building, please evacuate quickly according to the guidance magic!
As the siren rang and the students escaped the lab, Harang jumped out the window and landed on the floor.
Tooung-!
The noise was quite loud due to the weight bands being worn all over the body, but it was drowned out by the students’ screams and noise.
“Ah, a senior from the Fluid Inertia Research Department is trapped inside!”
“Shit. “Wouldn’t it be possible to escape with magic?”
“I’ve been researching all night since last night, so I’ve used up almost all of my magical power… … .”
“Moreover, there are many theoretical scholars without magic from outside, so not all of them will be able to escape through magic.”
“Something happened.”
I quickly approached the students surrounding the research building, grabbed one of my seniors, and asked.
“What happened? Why did there suddenly start a fire?”
“Mo, I don’t know. Our research wing studies fluid dynamics and water flow manipulation, so there are very few things that could cause a fire using magic… … Even if a fire breaks out, it is normal for it to be extinguished quickly.”
“… … .”
Harang knew it intuitively.
‘It’s not a natural fire. Who started the fire? Then why… … .’
The worry lasted only for a moment.
Without hesitation, he crossed his arms and connected them, forming a magic seal. An intangible protective shield formed around his body, and the flames fluttering nearby were unable to reach him and bounced away.
It is a magic that uses magical power to form a protective shield against flames. It is limited to natural flames and does not last long, so it is not effective, but it is enough to briefly enter and exit a building.
“Wait, do you want to go in?”
However, before he could go inside, he was stopped by grabbing his arm from behind.
When he turned around, Little Princess Aylka was looking at him with a serious expression.
“Are you crazy? “With a student’s level of magical power, you won’t be able to survive for long in a fire like that.”
“… … .”
Harang looked into her eyes for a moment and pointed inside the building.
“There are people who haven’t come out yet.”
“yes? but… … .”
“Wasn’t magic something you learned to use in situations like this?”
“… … !”
Aylka’s eyes widened as if she was slightly shocked at those words. Harang removed Ailka and went inside her without hesitation.
Looking at him like that, Aylka had a blank expression.
‘… … Something.’
I felt like I had been hit.
Days. He was a boy with talent that surpassed even the world’s Xelka Ainglass, and if he grew up safely, he could become a great wizard in the future.
You probably know that yourself.
In Aylka’s opinion, even if the value of all the students trapped in the research building were combined, it was nothing compared to just one person, Days.
If you are a person who knows the value of your life, it would be normal for you to value your life.
If we grow up safely like this, we could leave our mark in history… … You are putting yourself at risk.
‘Isn’t magic used for times like this?’
Aylka laughed.
I’ve never thought of magic in that way before. I thought her magic was just a tool for her to make her own value shine.
‘… … There wasn’t even a moment’s hesitation. As soon as I heard there was someone there, I immediately prepared magic.’
What on earth does this person do?
Was he really an ordinary fourteen-year-old boy?
Such behavior was not something a wizard growing up in an extremely selfish society could do. A wizard who knows only himself and only cares for himself does not try to move easily for the sake of others.
Such self-sacrificing determination is not for a wizard… … He was more suited to being called a knight, or rather, a ‘hero’.
“Students, please step back.”
“We will do it from now on.”
When the three knights who arrived late tried to jump into the fire, Aylka hurriedly stepped forward.
“I will help.”
“yes? but… … .”
Grumble! When Aylka spread her palm, the fire was pushed out and the entrance opened.
“… … !”
The knights looked surprised. There is probably no wizard here who can so delicately manipulate naturally occurring elements, especially flame, which is the most difficult to control. At the very least, if you’re an official wizard, you wouldn’t know.
The professors were slow to move and didn’t want to get involved in this type of work, so they were absent, so her magic would definitely be of great help.
“… … If so, let’s go together. “If you control the flame and it becomes dangerous, you must get out immediately.”
“I know that my life is a waste.”
“let’s go!”
Just like that, Aylka followed the knights and jumped into the fire.
