Grand Duke of the Heibern House

＜Chapter 55＞

It’s already been three months since Ruin only read books in the Wisdom Library.

If you keep going like this, you will miss the whole semester, so there is no doubt that you will have a reprieve.

It would be the first time in the history of the academy that a cadet with no rank was suspended, even if it was a cadet who was about to graduate.

In the end, Professor Gary Eldos couldn’t stand it and called Adrena.

“Adrena cadet. Is there any way to stop him?”

“Eh, that… … .”

Well, is that really possible?

Ruin was now suspicious of being a human with the same flesh and blood.

Wizards can like books. No, that would be the true quality of a wizard.

But what wizard can do it like Ruin?

Wake up at 4 am.

2 hours of fitness training.

After a light breakfast, the library until 12:00 PM.

Lunch, followed by 2 hours of physical training.

Library until 8pm, dinner.

Library until 1 am, then bedtime.

Like some elaborate watch, I have been repeating this ignorant routine without missing a day for three months.

Except for sleeping, eating, and running, I spend all of my time reading books.

Bedtime is only 3 hours.

It was an act of a human being who could not be trusted if he had not seen it with his own eyes for years.

No human being can do that.

“No matter how much I think about it, that seems impossible.”

Professor Gary Eldos couldn’t see the look in Ruin’s eyes as he read the book.

However, when asked to explain those eyes, Adrena was not confident.

yearning? avarice? desire? Craving?

His eyes, stained with all sorts of emotions, look at the book as if he were dissecting it.

The two eyes of the strong guy who couldn’t even put a word were really human eyes.

In fact, Adrena had never disturbed Ruin reading a book.

“How could that be… … ?”

I’ve heard Adrena’s report countless times, but Professor Gary Eldos is also absurd.

He was also proud of his passion for learning magic, but if he told me to do it like him… … .

Cancer, what people can’t do.

“Isn’t that guy not wanting paid?”

“to… … But who knows, he’s crazy, right? I’m sure he won’t come out until he’s read all the books in the Wisdom Library.”

“Mo, all the books?”

The Library of Wisdom is a magical treasure that the Kingdom of Lemadel has accumulated over a thousand years.

It is a vast amount of knowledge that one human being can never digest.

“Eh, has he already read all the theory books up to District 4?”

“Area 4?”

Even if it’s 3 months, is that possible?

Even just looking at the latest academics that are pouring in quickly is a situation where time is divided and divided.

Aside from the latest studies reported by the Mage Tower of each country, the theories established over a long period of time and ancient research achievements were impossible to look at over a lifetime.

The reason is that even the highest ranking wizards in the Mage Tower do not stay away from books.

At this point, I couldn’t contain my curiosity.

Gary Eldos wanted to check on Ruin even after delaying class.

“I need to see him in person.”

* * *

“It’s nonsense, no matter how much the deflection resistance value is increased at the dislocation wavelength, it doesn’t converge to mana contraction. If that was possible, cold-type magic itself would not exist.”

Ruin laughed at the old man’s words.

“You don’t understand the discontinuity of waveform shifting. According to state-of-the-art wave mechanics, the forces within a waveform do not have a constant matrix or continuity at any instant. It breaks easily even with the slightest stimulation.”

“joy! After all, you follow the Elgoran school that denies absolute constants!”

Louin was dumbfounded.

Does this old man have no backbone?

Yesterday, they pointed their fingers at me as being of the Bamund School, and now they are of the Elgora School again.

At first, the old man, who was glancing at the book he was reading, said surprising things, and he was interested for a while.

But he didn’t like the fact that the old man, who was now so flustered, was talking about magic.

“Don’t interrupt me any more and let’s stop.”

Phisht.

The old man laughed with strange eyes.

“No matter what book you read with an unripe perspective, your wisdom will be in place.”

Louin respects the elderly.

Being old means surviving.

However, he had no intention of respecting the old-fashioned stubbornness of an old man struggling in his own world.

food.

“That’s an enemy theory, but are you still struggling there? If you think I’m wrong, go back and draw your own magic circuit.”

The old man seemed even more angry at Ruin’s ridicule that matched him like his own clothes.

“Ugh! Even potential wavelengths cannot break the law! It is called an absolute constant because it is firm in any variation!”

Soon, Luin’s expression darkened.

Ruin personally observed human white magic that has evolved over thousands of years.

The moment you attach the modifier ‘absolute’ to such a long period of time, all meaning is lost.

A law in which any established theory can be refuted and also discarded.

Surprisingly, however, the old man did not stop there and began making hand signs.

Boooooung-

The surrounding air constricts in an instant.

A shuddering cold air arose along with a quiet noise.

In an instant, the area around his feet cracked and he let out a scream.

6th tier ice type barrier magic, Frozen aura.

Ruin was surprised inside the guardian tent that shimmered around the old man like the light of the clear sky.

When the hand seal was made, the frozen aura was realized immediately.

In other words, it means no chanting, that is, magic that even omits the commandments.

Most of the casting process was handled with telekinesis.

If you can implement 6th tier magic with a single gesture, is it at least a 7th tier, no, an 8th tier wizard?

However, Ruin’s surprise was not yet over.

The number of elderly people changes.

thru-

A hazy beam of light rose in front of him, and was soon overlaid with a transparent frozen aura.

All sorts of subtle forms of magic circuits immediately revealed.

It was the 5th level sensitivity magic, Scanning.

‘Concurrent implementation?’

Ruin was finally convinced of the old man’s ability to easily double cast.

As expected, the old man in front of him was an archmage who had reached at least the 8th tier.

“Try denying it again.”

That’s how the old man personally showed off his magic and proved his claim.

“no-“

Isn’t this a foul?

It was a serious violation of the school rules in the library.

If you recklessly cast magic, you will be given the maximum penalty immediately.

The bewildered Ruin stares blankly at the librarian sitting far away.

Originally, you would have rushed to warn me?

But the librarian just stared blankly at the old man, frozen as ice.

Judging by the fact that he doesn’t care about the school rules of the Faculty of Magic, this stubborn old man must be a high-ranking official in the Faculty of Magic or a member of the Mage Tower.

“Where are you going to deny my magic with the proud wisdom of the Elgoran school!”

“Casting magic in the library gives you the maximum penalty. Are you telling me to prepare for expulsion?”

“librarian!”

The librarian hurriedly jumps at the old man’s cry.

“Boo, did you call?”

“From now on, school rules within the library will not be used. This is a temporary operation, and the librarian should notify the Office of Education of my intention.”

“Ah, I see!”

Ruin sighed as he stared at the librarian who hurried away with a pale face.

Anyway, the opponent is coming out this much, but you’re going to step back?

The fear of darkness, the pride of the great mage Ruin, did not allow it.

Geeing-

The seal of Ruin is embroidered in the air.

Then, minute waves of mana materialized and began to ripple.

“joy!”

The old man snorted.

The wave that floated in front of him is a typical potential wave.

It is obviously the power of mana, which is called avant-garde because it is constant with only one quality.

Together.

Tsutsutsutsutsu –

change in an instant

As Ruin’s telekinesis and beast sign formed dizzy, the waves of mana became unstable as if they were dancing.

Variation of splendid but constant stimulation.

Gearco Ruin’s mana wave instantly condensed the air and began to contain an amazing chill.

sssss-

Damn it!

As the crystallized air began to rage in all directions, everything around him, including the desk and the floor, began to rapidly cool.

When the white frost tries to cover the bookshelves.

A groan escaped from the old man’s mouth.

“That, stop—!”

Ruin retrieved the hand sign with cold eyes and shook off his magical energy.

“… … .”

The eyes of an old man full of distrust.

I couldn’t believe it even after seeing it with my own two eyes.

Potential waves are used for space movement magic such as teleportation.

Due to its inherent non-distorted nature, it is a necessary magic implementation method to add stability to magic.

However, as he claimed, he realized real ice-type magic with such a potential wavelength.

The most surprising thing was that the power of the cold air surpassed the frozen aura compared to the amount of mana felt from its magic.

In other words, the efficiency of magical power is so high that it cannot be compared.

“… … What is the name of this magic?”

Soon after, Luin’s calm voice continued.

“We haven’t named it yet.”

“what?”

didn’t you name it?

What he meant was very clear.

“Yes, you mean you invented the magic?”

“It’s still clumsy, but for now, it is.”

The old man was more surprised now than when the electric potential wave that he believed like an absolute law was destroyed right in front of his eyes.

I couldn’t believe it.

A third-rank magic cadet inventing magic?

The fact that one magic was reported to the society meant that it was the result of countless mages in the Mage Tower hanging on for years.

Even for the establishment of a simple theory rather than a completed magic, professors spend their whole lives in the lab.

“You guys! In this library of divine wisdom, do not lie… … huh?”

At that time, the waves of strange distortion magic were captured by the old man’s sensitive senses.

Undoubtedly, disparate auras of distortion were scattered around the guy’s shoulders.

‘Illusion?’

The curious old man rearranged his magic in an instant.

The face of an old man getting more and more distorted.

I thought it was a simple illusion, but surprisingly I couldn’t read the texture of the magic circuit.

This is the first time the cadet’s magic has not been dispeled.

Ruin tried to forcibly dissipate the mana of the old man who was persistently interfering with his magic circuit.

As befits an 8th-tier archmage, the old man finally destroyed Ruin’s elaborate magic circuit.

That moment.

roar-

The old man froze as it was.

A single magic orb that is condensed with unbelievable magical power.

An extremely heterogeneous energy that cannot be expressed in words.

However, the old man’s heart started beating like crazy at the three white rings around the magic ball.

‘This, this can’t be… … ?’

An assumption that is completely unacceptable with the common sense of a magician.

In an instant, the magic sphere disappeared as if it had been washed.

Ruin retrieved Odd to the spirit world.

“Hey, what about that?”

“yes? What do you mean by that?”

“No, definitely just!”

At that time, Professor Gary Eldos, who had just arrived at the library, found the old man and hurriedly bowed down.

“Meet the dean. But what are you doing in the library?”

Ruin immediately frowned.

‘Dean?’
