I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy Chapter 165

I became a flashing genius in front of the magic school 165

39. Ghost story ⑴

Hong Bi-yeon and Azel.

The two, symbolizing a blazing red flame and cold blue ice, seem to be complete opposites, but if you secretly want to find something in common, you can find it.

First, they intentionally put their pride on high for self-protection.

Secondly, if I have a question, I dig into it and look into it until the end no matter what happens.

Thirdly, he was deeply interested in a person.

Their commonalities strangely overlapped, and they got along well enough to erase the nature of opposites and the strong atmosphere of friction. The idea of ​​the two of them sitting together in the library and studying something came across as quite an amazing feeling to the other students.

“Hey, look over there.”

“The princess and that traitor… … .”

“Shh. Who calls me that these days? “Don’t you notice?”

“Uh, uh… That’s right.”

Recently, the perception of the Morph family has been changing little by little due to Azel. Although he was stigmatized as the child of a traitor and looked upon with disgust and ridicule, he grew up in an extremely cruel environment, but through constant effort, he was admitted to Stella with top grades.

As if that weren’t enough, he raised new possibilities for attribute magic and reached class 4 at the young age of seventeen, and no matter what incidents or accidents occurred, he

The way he fought to the end with a sense of justice became an example to many aspiring magic warriors.

In fact, she enjoyed quite a lot of popularity among commoners and low-class students who did not give much thought to the ‘Dark Demon Traitor’.

This is because teenagers had no choice but to fall in love with life-turning stories like the youth comics called ‘A star that rises without giving in even under the worst conditions.’

Because of that.

Even though the table where Azel and Hong Bi-yeon were sitting had seats for 8,

No one came near.

No, it would be better to say that I couldn’t do it.

The two of them are even putting their heads together and discussing something in a quiet tone, not on an ordinary task, but on a pile of thick books, diligently taking notes. Who would dare to invade that space?

‘You’re researching something great magic, not just homework.’

‘that’s right. ‘Because they are different from ordinary students like us.’

‘Shh. Let’s pass quietly.’

… … So, in the end, the students’ awe and

What subject are the two girls studying, captivating even their reverential gaze?

[What is a noble soul?]

It’s really useless for the development of magic… … It was a study on the soul that had not yet been properly proven.

The wizard who discovered the true nature of the soul does not yet exist in the world.

Because necromancy is the domain of black magicians, the field has not developed properly.

Moreover, this necromancy is simply magical.

It was not a field that could be solved through research, but there were many elements of philosophy involved, so it was a field that no one touched, even bearing the shameful title of ‘zero contribution to the development of magic.’

There is also a tearful story about how some grade-starved students sneakily dipped their toes and dozed off during class, causing their grade point average to drop.

[The human soul can never become noble.]

[This is because, at the moment of birth, they commit unfilial piety that causes pain to their mother.]

[In order to purify a turbid soul, twice as much effort is required. Since humans accumulate countless karma even before they have a self, they cannot erase it even if they try their whole lives.]

[It is difficult to even restore a turbid soul, so how much more can it be to have a noble soul?]

The study of noble souls was full of negative content from the first page, but from then on, countless examples from history were listed.

[However, surprisingly, there are several great people in history who came close to noble souls.]

[Their great and noble achievements purified the countless karma committed during their lives.]

That is, to conclude.

‘Humans cannot be virtuous, but if they contribute or sacrifice for the world, they will have a soul that approaches virtuousness.’

It can be summarized like this.

“… … “I don’t quite understand.”

Because it was her first time studying this field, Hong Bi-yeon pressed her temples as if she did not understand.

It was the same for Azel, so he grunted in pain, but he managed to explain what he understood.

“If you look at the list of noble people in history, most of them are people called ‘saints’ or ‘saints.’”

Great people who give generously of themselves, sacrifice for others, and struggle to wipe away the tears of others, even if it means shedding blood themselves.

Most of them couldn’t even use sacred magic. According to testimony at the time, lowly things were not qualified to learn sacred magic.

However, some of them developed medicine to heal others without divine magic, some led wars to victory to protect their people, some studied alchemy and developed potions, and some later became great wizards. .

Saints and saints… … You have to implement your own justice in the world in many different ways.

These are truly great people who make people look up to them and call their names, completely different from the saints and saints arbitrarily chosen by the current Holy Kingdom.

Such people are the ones closest to a noble soul.

There is a problem here.

“Even these people only came close to having a noble soul, but did not have a completely noble soul.”

“… … yes.”

Humans cannot have a noble soul. No one has ever been able to break that complete proposition.

however… … Baek Yu-seol broke it. This was truly amazing, but unfortunately, due to lack of interest in necromancy, no one knew how amazing and great it was.

Tup!

Hong Bi-yeon closed the book.

There is no need for long research or worry.

This is because the conclusion was made immediately.

“… … “I understand roughly.”

“Iknow, right… …

Baekyuseol has really, truly gone through countless regressions… … how much

Have I harmed countless lives?

At that time, from what I saw briefly in ‘The Star Library’, Baek Yu-seol’s life was stained with blood, covering up sins that could not be washed away.

The countless karma was not enough to dye his soul the deepest black, but somehow he had a soul so bright that it was blindingly bright.

According to the book, the conclusion was simple.

Baek Yu-seol made countless sacrifices to save the world, even more so than the sins he committed, and as a result, he was finally able to save the world.

He even had a noble soul.

The girls couldn’t even imagine the process that led to that.

They just became painfully aware of the fact that they were young.

What is a genius wizard and what is a talent blessed with magic?

Adolebit royal family? Morph family?

Those who praise such a superficial shell… … They are idiots who don’t know anything.

The real thing is different.

Truly the greatest name in the world

Those who have money are living quietly.

Suddenly, Hong Bi-yeon became ashamed of the life she had lived so far.

The days when I lived as a princess of the Adolebit royal family.

I was so embarrassed that I wanted to erase all of the behavior that I had ignored, saying that everyone was equal under me, if I could.

After organizing the books, Hong Bi-yeon quietly got up and left without saying a word or even pulling a chair. There is no greeting. Anyway, I sit down to read the same book for a while

It was just that I still had an awkward relationship with Azel.

Azel likewise didn’t catch her or even look at her as she floated away. She just stayed there and read the remaining pages carefully.

“This… …

It was pointless to read any further, but the girl’s curiosity was strong. Curiosity about areas you didn’t know about.

As Azel delved deeper into it, he was able to discover something quite interesting.

[…] … The most recent great person who came close to a noble soul would be ‘Abeline Staberg.’]

[Although he has now chosen to sacrifice his soul to the underworld and become a dark magician himself, he has made a name for himself as a graduate of Stella Academy… … .]

Abeline Staberg, an archmage and warlock from Stella.

Azel knows that name well. This is because his father had told him about the author when he was young.

‘That man was very eccentric. To put it mildly, when he was a student at Stella, he sent the entire main tower to the other side of the world.

‘Incredible… … .’

‘If it’s great, it’s great. They say that the missing tower is now completely gone because not even the principal could retrieve it. ‘Because there was no 7th main pagoda when this father was attending school.’

Did you say that was about half a century ago? Now that he has become a hogman, he is known as Abel within Stella.

All history of Rheinstaberg had been erased.

This is because Eltman Eltwin, who absolutely hates all Dark Demons, has buried it all in secret.

That is why, to this day, the existence of the ‘7 Main Pagodas’ is only a ghost story among students.

，Hmm… … .,

Azel knows some of the truth about the ghost story. This was because he heard the story from his father, who was experiencing a major incident in Stella at the time.

‘It’s the 7th Main Tower…’ …

The study ends there.

She soon closed the book.

All questions were resolved.

* * *

There were countless ghost stories at Stella Academy.

With a history of over 100 years, there have been a variety of unique magicians that will leave a mark in history, and the school grounds are as large as any small town, so it is inevitable that ghost stories will arise.

It was a structure that did not exist.

Among them, some of the ghost stories are so unrealistic that they can be dismissed as nonsense, but if one were to name one of the few ghost stories that students believe to be true, it would be the ‘7th Main Tower ghost story’.

※There is no seventh main tower at our school.

※If you are passing through the corridor between the main pagoda and accidentally enter the main pagoda with the number Gui written on it, immediately turn back and proceed as usual.

Walk away with slow strides.

［In this case, even if you hear a girl calling you from behind, ignore it.

※If a student wearing a white uniform walks ahead in the hallway of Main Tower 4, do not follow him. There are no white uniforms at our school.

※Do not cross from the 6th main pagoda to the 3rd main pagoda at midnight.

LIf you pass by the Third Main Pagoda and see a stained mirror, avoid looking away.

“I accidentally made eye contact with myself in the mirror.

If you get hit, immediately close your eyes, count to 100, and pass. Nothing will happen.

..Huh.

There were more than ten Neapolitan ghost stories related to the Seventh Tower alone, so it was obvious how much interest the students had in ghost stories related to this.

Of course, nothing turned out to be true. A student who attended the academy and grew up hearing the ghost stories of the 7th Main Tower said that even decades later when he became a professor, he had never seen the 7th Main Tower.

That’s because I said there wasn’t any.

However, once every few years, there were students who dropped out after saying nonsense, saying that they had entered the 7th Main Tower, and the ghost story was rekindled every year with no sign of going away.

‘Doesn’t it really exist?’

‘No way. They even announced that there was no principal?’

‘that’s right. But the professors keep telling me not to mention it, so isn’t it more suspicious?’

right.’

As ghost stories usually do, the subject changes quickly without the truth being revealed.

Well, I quickly forgot about it.

However, Fullime paid attention to the ghost story of this 7th Main Tower, which recently started to stir up trouble again. She said she knew the truth about that ghost story through the original novel.

It’s just a rumor… … .”

Anella looked at Fullera, who was investigating the 7th Main Tower, with very suspicious eyes. Her initial fearful mood was gone, and seeing her chasing these ghost stories and rumors made me feel like she was a helpless girl.

… … Sometimes she unleashes her radiant magic

My stomach tingled when I did it, but anyway, that was that and this was this.

“huh. It’s just a rumor ス］. But why has such a rumor suddenly spread recently?”

After the school competition ended, a week passed and it was summer, and Namryang special scary stories were popular in the school.

So wouldn’t it be surprising if at least one Neapolitan ghost story was more popular there?

However, the ghost story of the 7th main pagoda was particularly clear in its subject matter and strangely became popular.

It was as if students were wondering about the 7th Main Pagoda.

Like wanting to have a sim.

Fulleim knew the reason, but did not bother to explain it to Anella. Revealing the truth already would have meant telling the ‘end’ of the ‘event’ in which the incident unfolds before it even begins.

‘Still, it’s definitely there.’

In the original novel, Professor Meizen Tyren deliberately spread rumors about the 7th Main Tower.

But now that she is not there, even though there is no way for rumors to spread, the story of the 7th Main Tower is so active… … Who will replace Maizen Tyren?

It means that there is a 100% probability that the military family exists.

So, all you have to do is find him.

Fortunately, Anella, who can distinguish between the same dark demons, accompanied us, so it would be possible to distinguish them from black demons that do not appear in the original Ro version.

All you have to do is narrow down the people who started the rumor and ask Anella to confirm that they are the Black Demon, and that’s the end of the game.

It would be possible to prevent one of the worst incidents, the ‘7th Main Tower Dark Horse Erosion Incident’, before it even occurs.

“… So, are you really one of the professors?

“Do you think someone is guilty?”

“I’m not sure. But I’ll have to research it first, otherwise I’ll pass.”

It is normal for a student to visit a professor and there is no problem.

Since I was a full-time honors student and had knowledge in a variety of fields, there would be nothing strange if I went to the professor of a class I was not taking and asked him about the subject.

There are many suspicious suspects.

So, Full Lame identified the suspects by looking for them one by one and meeting them.

I was thinking of culling it.

It’s very primitive, but it’s the surest way to do it as a student.

“Then, let’s go!”

As the full frame confidently set off towards a professor’s laboratory, Anella followed with a dying expression.

and.

On the other side of the hallway, someone who had been secretly watching Full Frame’s back slowly moved.

He looked at the laboratory where the full frame was installed for a moment, then turned away, full of regret.

There was only silence and no trace left where anyone had been standing.
