〈 Episode 198 〉 Teacher (2)
* * *
The rain was pounding against the wooden shutters of the carriage. It was a depressing and gloomy day for the challenging day of Aria Lilias’s exam.
Luce and I skipped class, citing ‘learning purposes’ as the reason. By the authority of Professor Fernando, and by the authority of the Hegelian Matapism in cooperation with the Marchen Academy.
It’s okay if I miss a few classes. She asked several friends like Amy and Mateo to help her organize notes.
We were dressed in neat civilian clothes. Since it was an opportunity to meet a high-ranking person, Professor Fernando told me to pay attention to my clothes.
Professor Fernando said that he searched his office a few days ago and found Aria’s second messenger, who had not yet been dealt with. Before throwing it out of her window, she is said to have asked him, ‘Why did you call Luce El Tania too?’ to which she replied:
I heard you have overwhelming talent. Since we had the same attributes, I wanted to teach it.
‘Good.’
Luce is being considered as a member of the evil god subjugation team. In other words, if Aria strengthened Luce, it would only be good for me.
As time passed, we arrived in front of the Hegel Tower in Professor Fernando’s personal carriage. It was a distance that could be reached in 2 hours.
“This is the Hegel Tower.”
Hegel’s Magic Tower, as its name suggests, was a tall building or tower. It was safe to say that it was the tallest building on the island.
However, it was definitely a shabby appearance compared to the castle-level magic towers that were only towers in name and were built as cities. There was even a shopping mall a little further away, so it felt quite cozy.
Luce and I followed Professor Fernando into the Hegel Tower. The ceiling was high, majestic, and had an old-fashioned design.
It was a static atmosphere. While going inside, Professor Fernando explained various things as if he were a tourist guide. A lot of magic research is going on here, or what achievements have been achieved. He seemed like a person who loved teaching.
As I passed by, I occasionally saw wizards dressed in robes. The clothes were pretty cool, so I squinted and looked at them.
We went up in an elevator powered by telekinetic magic. The destination is the top floor. Professor Fernando says that only some people, like himself, are allowed to climb to the top floor of the Hegel Tower.
When we reached the top floor, we entered a luxuriously decorated hallway. After crossing the hallway a short distance, I was able to reach a large door.
“Can I come in as I please?”
“Okay. “The teacher already knows we’re here.”
I’m sorry.
When Professor Fernando opened the door, an empty library came into view. In the circular space, numerous books and magic tools were floating.
When I looked up, I saw a high glass ceiling, and rain was pouring down beyond it. Because a barrier was deployed throughout the magic tower, rainwater did not reach the glass windows and no noise was made.
As I went inside, I saw a woman of short stature sitting on a desk and waving her legs. Like she was waiting for us. She looked bored.
It was my first time seeing her in person since I became possessed in this world.
“Greetings, sir.”
Professor Fernando bowed his upper body and I followed suit.
Reddish-brown hair swept to one side. Weak eyes. Wearing wizard robes.
It was Aria Lilias, the lord of the Hegel Tower.
She got down from her desk and approached us.
“It will follow.”
Aria walked past us and out the door.
Professor Fernando followed Aria straight away without any questions, and Luce and I exchanged glances and then followed them.
I took the magic tower owner’s elevator in the hallway and went up to the rooftop. There were gloomy dark clouds in the sky.
Aria used her telekinesis to place an invisible magical umbrella over everyone’s heads. She then went to the center of the rooftop and looked up at her sky.
“Isaac.”
“yes.”
Aria called.
“Can you explain what ice magic is?”
“… It is a magic that takes away heat and freezes it. So, the exact name is freezing magic, but if it were just that, it would be of little use, so it creates ice using mana that stays in nature and the caster’s magic power. So, I believe the name Ice Magic was established.”
“No need to explain in depth. “See it with your own eyes.”
Why did you ask?
Aria took out a magic tool from her arms and threw it upwards. A small magic tool the size of a baseball, a messenger. It stayed under the dark clouds, flapping its wings as quickly as a hummingbird.
Soon, she stretched out her right arm towards the messenger.
A strong magical power enveloped the rooftop.
Seven light blue magic circles unfolded behind Aria as if gears were moving together. Even the runes were engraved, and the stroke composition was elaborate and complex.
“This is [Bingroe].”
Quagwang!!
From the seven magic circles deployed by Aria, light blue magical power poured down like lightning towards the messenger.
A beautiful crazy image appeared in the air, and an ear-piercing roar rang out.
Kwaaaang!!
A cold explosion swept around the messenger. Cold air flew everywhere and sleet fell for a moment.
‘Oh.’
It came… .
To accurately target and destroy the constantly moving messenger. It was like a sharpshooter.
If your magical power was not properly trained, it would be difficult to aim properly at the target, and such sophisticated magic would not flow. It was admirable.
Aria removed the magic circle and turned her head to look at me.
“To be applauded.”
I applauded the triumphant Aria without hesitation. Luce noticed me and clapped a few times.
“This is the 7-star ice elemental magic [Ice Thunder] that I will teach you. “Even if I teach you, whether you can do it well or not is entirely up to you.”
Yes I am! He answered loudly. The corner of her mouth twitched and she was quite excited. She wondered if Aria was this cool-looking person.
“Luce Eltania, you too. “I will make you stronger, so please follow along.”
“… … .”
Luce didn’t answer anything. When talking to people other than me, he had a tendency not to say anything unless it was absolutely necessary.
Aria frowned.
“Answer me.”
“Luce, answer me.”

“… yes.”
Luce reluctantly answered.
Aria spread three fingers.
“I will take the exam in the next three days. “This is the process of determining whether you are worthy children to receive my teachings, so don’t be arrogant and do your best.”
“I will do my best!”
“yes… .”
I answered loudly, and Luce frowned and forced herself to answer.
“Disciple should go down first.”
“Yes, then.”
Professor Fernando turned his back.
“Isaac, Luce Eltania. “I will come back in three days.”
They say that their role has been completed. Professor Fernando took the elevator down to his feet.
“you.”
Aria raised one corner of her mouth.
“Be firm and prepared.”
* * *
Three days have passed.
After finishing his lecture, Fernando Frost took a carriage and headed to Hegel’s Tower.
Isaac, Luce Eltania. Both of them have probably finished their exams by now and are resting. Since I haven’t been able to eat or wash properly for 3 days, my stamina must have been depleted.
For Fernando, the moment of taking Aria’s test was short but intensely memorable.
Isaac and Luce would have passed the test. I wanted to quickly take them to the living quarters and make them rest comfortably.
I arrived at the Hegel Tower and boarded the elevator. After arriving at the top floor, I gently opened the door to Aria’s laboratory and looked inside.
“… … ?”
Isaac and Luce were nowhere to be seen.
All that could be seen was Aria Lilias, floating in the air and reading a book aimlessly.
Fernando went inside. Aria glanced at him, then turned her eyes back to the book.
“Hello, teacher? “Where have the kids gone?”
When Fernando approached Aria and asked, she sighed.
“Disciple.”
“yes?”
“Those guys are monsters.”
… …
After talking with Aria, Fernando headed to the laboratory on the 15th floor.
I heard an incredible story. It is said that Isaac passed the test in just 10 minutes, and Luce in 5 minutes.
So Aria went straight to the teachings and realized.
Their learning ability far exceeds their expectations.
Isaac was able to find a solution as soon as I was given direction on how to construct the [Bingroo] construction formula.
No matter how difficult an action required magic control, Luce was able to correct it right away with just one feedback.
─ ‘They are not children that I can handle with the knowledge and wisdom I have accumulated and my abilities. What I can do for their growth is not as much as you might think.’
He was a calm teacher as usual. But for the first time, Fernando felt that she had become discouraged.
It’s a teacher’s dilemma. A highly capable student is preferred because teaching is fun, but if the student is too talented, the teacher may feel skeptical about his or her own abilities.
Aria didn’t even know she had experienced the latter case this time.
Fernando quietly opened the laboratory door and looked inside. Then his eyes widened.
There were formulas written on three large blackboards several times larger than my height.
Isaac, who had deep dark circles around his eyes, was reading a book and writing down equations.
There were more than a dozen books lying around. It wasn’t difficult to guess that these were all signs that Isaac studied without sleep for three days and nights.
It was terrifying concentration and stamina.
Unless it is a power given by a fairy, such as Kaya Astrean’s plant attribute or Dorothy Heartnova’s starlight attribute… .
Most elite wizards invest over 30 years to learn 7-star elemental magic. That male student was extremely compressing that time.
Meanwhile, Luce Eltania was sitting at the desk, looking at the formulas written by Isaac and sharing opinions. She also looked tired, but she seemed to be in better condition than Isaac.
I heard that lodging will be provided. She had heard that Aria had only given her one room as a joke, but perhaps the two had not yet taken advantage of the accommodations.
“Heh… .”
Amazing guys.
Fernando chuckled and left the place. It would be better to come back later.
… …
A week later.
The sunset was completely clear in the clear sky.
Fernando headed to the Hegel Tower again. This was because Aria’s messenger came to the professor’s office and gave instructions to come to the magic tower immediately. I heard that Isaac will soon reach a higher level.
I took the elevator and went up to the rooftop. Ultramarine blue sky. The starlight was slowly shining.
Isaac, Luce, and Aria were standing on the rooftop.
“teacher?”
“Shh.”
Isaac standing in the middle of the rooftop. He looked shabby and very tired, but his eyes were looking clearly and coolly at the sky.
Luce, Fernando, and Aria watched him from afar.
As if he was ready, Isaac sent Aria’s messenger away without a word. The messenger rose into the sky and began to wander around in circles.
Isaac paid attention to his magic sensing ability and took into account the level, density, and wind direction of the natural mana around him.
Carving the appropriate strokes like a craftsman neatly assembling parts, he calculated the construction formula for the 7-star ice elemental magic [Ice Thunder]. Taking care not to twist the strokes.
Eventually, I stretched my right arm upward.
One after another, a buzzing sound rang out, and seven light blue magic circles traced behind him. It was just a magic circle, each with a complicated composition.
“really… A magic circle has been deployed.”
Fernando opened his eyes wide and was amazed.
When I saw Isaac directly deploying the 7-star ice elemental magic [Ice Thunder], it was so amazing that it was ridiculous.
It was truly a wonderful talent.
Moreover, since he was once the weakest student in the academy, the endless manifestation of his potential feels very dramatic.
Isaac’s eyes focused on a target flying in the sky.
He frowned. He found it difficult to aim properly. It was difficult for him to use magical power to fire [Ice Lightning], so his mind was very confused.
“Whoa.”
Take a deep breath.
Isaac imitated the shape of a gun by extending only his index finger and thumb with his outstretched right hand. His index finger calmly chased the messenger.
Soon, the light blue magic circles radiated light all at once.
Isaac released cold magic power. Kwagwagang!!
In an instant, a beam of light appeared like a chain in the air.
The bitter cold spread like an explosion, and icy thunderbolts spread out in several directions and pierced the messenger.
Kwaang!!
Cold explosions exploded one after another.
In an instant, the frozen block of ice flew somewhere. Inside was a broken messenger.
Fernando couldn’t keep his mouth shut. Arya lowered her eyes.
Isaac gathered the magic circle. Although his control was still messy and weak, he closed his eyes and savored the fact that he had succeeded in [Ice Thunder].
“Hehe… .”
I finally succeeded in using the 7-star ice elemental magic [Ice Thunder].
A sobbing, joyful laugh escaped Isaac’s lips.
It was so hard… . Those words are blurred in the air.
Isaac was so relieved that he lost consciousness and stretched out.
“Isaac?!”
Luce and Fernando ran to Isaac and looked down at him. He seemed to be sound asleep.
He must have been concentrating on the 7-star magic circle-building formula without much sleep, so it was a good thing that his stamina held up until now.
Moreover, 7-star elemental magic cannot be cast just by learning the construction method. In order to use the magic power of [Ice Lightning], painstaking training must have been carried out first.
A toxic guy. Fernando said to himself and the corners of his mouth wiggled.
Luce smiled softly, sat down on the rooftop, and placed Isaac’s head on her lap pillow.
The gentle evening breeze caressed my hair.
Thanks to Aria, Luce was also able to get a sense of how to strengthen her water elemental magic. That was something she could thank Aria for.
Luce felt a tickling feeling of pride at the thought that I, too, was growing up with Isaac.
“Good job, Isaac. “It was cool.”
Luce stroked Isaac’s hair.
“… … .”
Aria thought. Isaac and Luce. Those two were born with incredible talent. He will most likely be a noble person who will remain in history.
… There’s just one question that bothers me. I’ll have to ask that tomorrow.
Aria turned her head towards the sea. Before she knew it, the sun was setting.
“Isaac, Luce Eltania. Now this is graduation. “It’s late, so I’ll go out tomorrow if possible.”
Aria turned her back and walked away.
Luce looked at the darkened evening sky, then turned her head towards Aria leaving.
“What about the room?”
“I would have given one away.”
“… … .”
Luce looked at Isaac again and then spoke to Fernando.
“Go first. “Because I’m going to sleep with Isaac.”
“Hmm. Fernando, go back first today and come pick me up tomorrow.”
Aria helped out without notice.
“… … ?”
Fernando was doubtful.
If that’s the case, shouldn’t you just take Isaac and Luce with you? ?
However, because Luce and Aria’s intentions were firm, Fernando could not express that question.
