“Not only did you hire such a dangerous person as your instructor, but you also assigned him to be my watchdog?”
Unable to hold it in any longer, I asked out loud.
However, the answer that came back was amazing.
“Once you learn magic, you have to accept the side effects. Who would be fit to be an instructor at the Magic Academy and not have any side effects?”
“… … .”
Yeah, it’s true that it’s full of crazy people.
But, no matter what.
“Isn’t it too dangerous that the side effect of an instructor teaching the officials is the impulse to kill?”
“… It’s my fault that you ended up in danger. It was my job as the head of this school to watch over the instructors, but I ended up putting you in danger instead. As the head of my school, I will apologize to you.”
As soon as the magician finished speaking, the master came to his defense.
“It’s okay, Yeom Gwan-ju. It’s something that happens often when you learn magic. Right now, there are people who are after Ilmok, so I’m just reacting sensitively. If you look at the incident itself, it’s nothing special.”
As I listened, my head started hurting again.
‘What do we do with these crazy, pseudo-fanatic, psychopaths?’
Since the magic and the pseudo-magic were combined, this was a level where there was no answer.
Come to think of it, it wasn’t just an adult problem.
‘Junghyun also gained enlightenment and his social phobia got worse, and that Baekcheon guy became completely crazy. Bang Mihwa also seems to have gotten stranger recently.’
Even if I just look at those who I was ‘relatively’ close to, they are in this state. This was also a change that occurred in just half a year since I entered the Magic Hall.
Even I got involved in some incidents and the side effects got worse.
‘I’m an adult at least, so it doesn’t matter, but what did the kids do wrong?’
Only sixteen. In modern terms, that would be only a first year high school student.
This is also only a story after entering the Magic Academy. I even heard that Seon-ah started learning the magic art called Blood Tiger Redemption Art when she was only ten years old.
It was said that during their puberty, with the side effects of magic added on, they were all growing up to be truly crazy bastards.
No, isn’t it because of this environment that all the adults in the Demonic Cult have gone crazy?
Could it be because I was thinking about the ending system of the Cheonmasingyo?
‘This is fucked.’
Once again, the side effects that had been dormant in a corner of my mind began to raise their heads.
Now I am sure.
‘The realm has really risen. Damn it.’
Before waking up, I barely managed to suppress the side effects, but it was only enough to prevent me from going wild.
It was difficult for me to ignore the screaming in my head any longer, so I finally had no choice but to open my mouth.
“Master.”
“Yes, my disciple.”
“Won’t the schools that are currently providing education in each branch of Xinjiang have their first graduates in half a year?”
“That’s right.”
“And according to the original plan, wouldn’t those children with outstanding martial arts be taught martial arts additionally, and those with outstanding literary talent be taught administration or medicine?”
“The eldest son has already taken responsibility and is preparing, but is there any problem?”
“When educating children with outstanding talent, can you delay the time when they learn magic? If possible, after they turn sixteen. Ah! It would be best if, not only these children, but also the Master announces that they are prohibited from learning magic before the age of sixteen.”
As soon as I finished speaking, everyone in the room, including the teacher, looked at me as if I was saying something crazy.
Even Yeom Ga-hwi, who always had a serious expression on his face.
“…Stop talking about Instructor Chu Il-hwan and why are you suddenly talking about that?”
“Because I felt something while spending half a year in the Magic Hall. Not only did the side effects get worse for me, but I also saw my peers and superiors going crazy day by day.”
“Isn’t this an inevitable problem that arises in the process of learning magic?”
At the teacher’s comment, I could barely hold back a sigh.
No matter how much the Master adored me, the moment I sighed at Cheonma’s words, it seemed as if the Demon King or Jin Ha-yeon, who were watching from the side, were going to aim for my balls.
“Master. Humans are made up of body and mind. However, these two are not separate. If the mind is disturbed, the body will also be disturbed. In the same sense, if the body is disturbed, the mind will also be disturbed. Then, Master, when is the time when the human body undergoes the most drastic changes?”
At my question, there was a subtle change in the Master’s expression as if he had noticed something.
‘Whew. I’m glad you noticed even though I explained it briefly.’
If it were modern times, we would have presented scientific evidence such as hormones, but in this day and age, this would not work.
I need to explain it appropriately to this era, but I can’t think of any useful examples, so I’m talking at length like this.
‘I never thought that the term ‘simgiche’ would be a concept that does not exist in the Central Plains.’
Still, it seemed like the teacher understood to some extent, so I quickly continued my explanation.
“It may vary from person to person, but usually, the period between the ages of twelve and sixteen is when the body changes the most. And since the mind and body are connected, this is also the period when the mind undergoes the most drastic changes. So, is it really safe to learn magic at this time when the mind is most unstable?”
At my last question, the Master turned his head and looked at the magician who was still in the room.
“What do you think, as a doctor? As a member of the National Assembly, do you think Ichimoku’s words are correct?”
The magician stroked his beard with an interested expression on his face and answered.
“It’s a problem I’ve never thought about before, so it’s hard to judge right or wrong right now, but it seems quite possible. However, since I’ve only dealt with those who’ve learned magic since childhood, I can’t think of any suitable comparison cases.”
At that moment, Jin Ha-yeon carefully raised her hand.
“Your Majesty, may a lowly girl say a word?”
“Tell me.”
“Before entering the Magic Academy, the girl lived in a rural village and learned magic from her parents. At that time, she often saw villagers who had not learned magic. As Confucius Ichimoku said, the village elders often talked about how children at that age were the most rebellious.”
I don’t know why she suddenly stepped forward to help me, but I agreed and continued speaking.
“I also used to hang out with ordinary people before I joined the new religion, Master. Even in my view, the minds of children at that age were constantly shaken and wild. It was as if they were shaken by strong winds and huge waves (疾風怒濤).”
The teacher nodded once at my explanation and asked.
“So, are you saying that I should avoid that period and learn magic?”
Honestly, I wanted to say no.
‘You should be at least twenty, let alone sixteen.’
In the first place, since the basis of the Demonic Cult is magic, it was obvious that the moment you said that you shouldn’t learn it, you would lose your balls.
In that case, wouldn’t it be better to learn it after you become an adult? Just because they’ve gone through puberty doesn’t mean that their minds suddenly develop to the level of a wise man.
However, those in the middle of the Demonic Cult would all be familiar with the customs of the past. If they were suddenly told to learn the art of magic after they turned twenty, there would inevitably be strong opposition.
Just like right now.
“Lord of the Ten Thousand Horses! Do not be deceived by false words!!”
Magogwanju Yeom Ga-hui shouted his resolute opposition with an expression of determination and determination, as if he were a loyal subject risking his life.
“The age of entry into the Magic Academy is sixteen, but they forbid you from learning magic until you are sixteen. This is impossible!”
“There is a simple solution to that. Just delay the entry into the Magic Hall by two years.”
When I argued back as if it was nothing, Yeom Ga-hui glared at me as if he was going to kill me and said:
“If that’s the case, don’t you really know that the average ability of the new religious warriors will inevitably drop significantly since the time they learn magic has been greatly delayed?”
“Your Majesty, it seems like you are too focused on the Magic Hall.”
“What the!!”
“Haven’t you heard the story before? The new religion is currently teaching children all over Xinjiang. Instead of delaying the age of learning magic to sixteen and delaying the age of entering the Magic Academy to eighteen, the number of children who begin learning magic will increase several times. So instead of delaying the age of entering the Magic Academy, we can increase the number of students in the Magic Academy.”
“!!!”
While Yeom Ga-hui hesitated, the teacher asked in a gentle tone.
“Are you saying we should choose quantity over quality?”
“It’s just the beginning, Master. After all, the growth rate of demonic arts is incomparable to that of other martial arts. In the end, before the time comes when each person is blocked by their own wall, they can grow rapidly. No, the wall will come later as their minds become more stable. So please think about it the other way around. The number of children learning demonic arts will increase several times, but if their minds are unstable, will you be able to handle it?”
For some reason, the teacher burst into laughter at my question.
“Hahaha. That’s why you said to increase the number of students in the Magic Hall. Since they learn magic later, their minds will be more mature. Naturally, even if the number increases, it will be possible to control it to some extent.”
At the Master’s interpretation, Yeom Ga-hui looked at me with a surprised face. It seemed as if he was asking if I had really thought that far.
Of course, I was thinking about my fucking side effects up to that point.
“Yes. However, just in case, and to maintain the quality of education, the number of instructors and teaching assistants needs to increase as the number of schools increases. So, rather than raising the admission age right away, we need to prepare for it gradually.”
“Hmm. If it’s as you say, even if we forbid children to learn magic before they turn sixteen, there will be problems with children who have already learned it. We can have those children enter the current magic hall for now, and then delay their admission by three or four years.”
“Yes. I think you can build a foundation little by little during that period, Master.”
To my answer, the teacher nodded with satisfaction and said:
“What a wonderful idea you came up with.”
“It was the same with what I saw at the Magic Hall, and in fact, the first thing that came to mind was Seon-ah.”
“Are you talking about that girl from the Hyukryun family?”
“Yes. From the moment I first saw Seon-ah, I felt sorry that she was putting such an excessive burden on a young child.”
“Hahaha. This is something that happened in this old man’s family home, but this old man never even thought about it. He had taken it for granted all this time.”
The Master seemed to be fully convinced, but the expression on the Magician’s face was not very satisfactory.
And perhaps that kind of reaction would match the reaction of most of the old farts who are in charge of the Demonic Cult.
To prevent a freaking side effect from happening, I opened my mouth again.
“Moreover, this is in line with the meaning of our new religion, Master.”
“Hoo. Is this the will of our new religion?”
“Yes, Master. What is the purpose of our religion? To punish evil through martial arts. Isn’t that why we select the leader through martial arts, and why those with outstanding martial arts skills are given high positions?”
Even though I had only opened my mouth to this point, the Master’s eyes lit up as if he had understood my intentions.
But perhaps to help others understand, he responded to what I said as if he was trying to add some excitement.
“That’s right. But what does that have to do with delaying the time of learning magic?”
“Because we can discover children who truly fit the doctrine and have outstanding talent for martial arts. If we teach each child in the school and discover their talents, and start learning demonic arts at the same time when they are sixteen, then the realms will be divided purely based on effort and talent. It’s not like now, where children who are born to good parents learn demonic arts first and advance ahead, and then pass on the teachings to the next generation.”
“!!!”
As soon as I finished speaking, the magician looked at me with a surprised expression.
“Also, learning the magic of the new religion is not only to quickly become stronger and save sentient beings, but also to overcome the side effects of the magic. So, didn’t you test me several times when you took me as your disciple, Master?”
Perhaps because I mentioned the events of our first meeting, the Master smiled happily, like an old man lost in memories.
“Hahaha. You remember well.”
“Yes, Master. That is why I think we should delay learning the magic arts even more. After learning the doctrines and meaning of the new religion in your mind at a young age when you are not suffering from the side effects of magic arts, wouldn’t you be able to grow into a warrior who truly follows the meaning of the religion? And here, there is a very good example.”
When everyone was looking at me with a puzzled expression, I turned my head slightly while lying down and looked at Jin Ha-yeon.
“Isn’t there a true believer out there who was born in a remote village and learned martial arts from his parents, who were mere warriors of the village, yet entered the Magic Academy with only his talent and hard work, and even though he learned minor magic after entering the Magic Academy, he graduated second in the class, and never forgot the doctrines of the new religion?”
Perhaps because I had heard so many compliments about Jin Ha-yeon from Joo Seo-yeon, Jin Ha-yeon’s story naturally came to mind.
But why is that?
The gazes of the Master, the Demon Doctor, and the Demonic Cultivation Master followed me and turned towards Jin Ha-yeon.
Her eyes looking at me were filled with deep ripples. Unlike her usual indifferent eyes.
‘Wow. Did I mention it for nothing?’
It seemed that the mention of it without permission had offended her. Judging from the fact that her face was slightly red, she seemed quite angry.
