Grand Duke of the Heibern House

＜Episode 56＞

Professor Gary Eldos greeted them politely, but the dean’s surprised expression remained the same.

‘… … .’

It must have been.

Extremely intense mana crystals.

It is definitely a unique mana wave that only circled magical powers can possess.

In addition, I personally saw three clearly typed rings.

When he dispelled his illusion, what he saw was unmistakably a ‘mana circle’.

But can a mana circle form outside the caster’s body instead of the heart?

Even if you search all the history of magic, it would be impossible to find such an example.

Of all the materials in this world, there is no mana medium that surpasses the heart of a living being.

Like water falling from a high place, it was a natural phenomenon to the magician.

As the dean of the department stood there in a daze without saying anything, Gary Eldos’ questions continued to Ruin.

“What is it, Cadet Ruin? If there is any disrespect to the dean… … ?”

“well. I was just expressing my opinion about the avant-wave, and I didn’t do anything that could be called disrespectful.”

Gary Eldos made an even more curious expression.

Residual mana was still scattered around the head of the department and cadet Ruin.

Judging from the white frost spreading around them, there was no doubt that they had cast ice-type magic.

No matter how you look at it, it’s clear that something happened… … .

Professor Gary Eldos looked at Ruin with a more suspicious look.

“… … potential wavelength?”

“yes.”

Why is the dean so upset over such a simple theory?

but then

The head of the department had his eyes wide open with an even more astonished face.

“This, this!”

The head of the faculty, who had been persistently tracking Ruin’s mana circle through mana scans, finally found a faint trace of the spirit world.

“Come on! Can you possibly handle the spirit world?”

Professor Gary Eldos couldn’t understand the department head’s reaction.

Only when you reach the level of a sage who can handle the mental world to the limit, what you can barely recognize is the spirit world.

For a wizard to deal with such a spirit world meant that he had reached a level beyond that of the archmage, that is, the ranks of superhumans.

Even if Ruin was a magic cadet with outstanding talent, wouldn’t he be able to handle the spirit world?

“The spirit world… … what is that?”

The transparent eyes of Ruin.

As if he didn’t know anything, I was almost fooled by the acting of the guy who was naturally blindfolded.

How dare you fool the eyes of this archmage!

A very angry department head.

“How dare you treat this Hedeian as an idiot! The mana circle you summoned is definitely over there! It permeated the spirit world!”

Immediately, Professor Gary Eldos followed the direction in which the Head of Hedayian was beckoning with his gaze.

But there was nothing in the void he was pointing at.

“I… … Head of department?”

Louin’s blunt voice followed.

“It looks like you have a lot of blindness. Well, sometimes I see things in vain. Even though you are old, don’t be too focused on imagery training.”

“This, profit!”

Ruin smiled and stared at Professor Gary Eldos.

“No, ‘summoning’ a mana circle into the air? Do you think that makes sense, Professor?”

Professor Gary Eldos frowns.

“What nonsense is that?”

Ruin shrugged his shoulders and looked at the head of the Hedeian department again, as if asking him to look at him.

In the end, Hedeian bit his teeth and fell silent.

As much as the bizarre state of magic, he was an unusual brazen guy.

Soon, the headmaster’s cold voice resounded.

“I came here out of curiosity because I heard that a cadet with no rank is in danger of being repaid.”

“ah!”

Entering the Faculty of Magic was the dream of every young wizard in the kingdom.

If I could graduate safely, at least I could live as a palace wizard.

In addition, as a royal palace wizard, if you had special achievements or achievements, you could even aim to enter the Mage Tower.

It’s literally the most ideal path to success as a wizard.

From nob le mt l. co m

For this reason, it was very rare for a cadet with no rank to be suspended.

At least there was no way I would have been suspended if I had only taken classes diligently.

There are cadets who are suspended even before reaching the second semester, where they have to choose a ‘group’.

Perhaps that is the first time in the history of the Faculty of Magic.

It’s a situation that the department head should be curious about.

“But I only read books. Even forging epaulettes.”

“Ha, Professor, that’s… … !”

As the embarrassed Professor Gary Eldos opened his mouth, he heard the cold voice of the Head of Hedeian again.

“The library librarian and the professor in charge are silent about the school rule irregularities that can be easily discovered by just checking the name tag. So I was curious. Who the hell is this cadet with no rank to receive such preferential treatment? Apparently, he’s not even a son of an aristocratic family.”

As soon as the word ‘professor in charge’ came out of the dean’s mouth, Professor Gary Eldos’ face turned pale.

Gary Eldos had no choice but to tell everyone that he had been given the secret mission of the Mage’s Tower.

The problem was that the Head of Hedeian didn’t have a very close relationship with the Magic Tower.

“what? Aegios?”

After listening to Professor Gary Eldos’ words, the head of Hedayan’s department showed more curiosity.

An unranked cadet that the sage Egios is watching over with all his attention… … .

‘I see, that’s why he was an unusual guy.’

The dean of Hedeian, who was struggling with cold eyes, summoned Professor Gary Eldos again.

“Professor Gary Eldos.”

“yes. Head of department.”

The head of the Hedeian Department spoke clearly, one by one, while glaring at Ruin.

“I will teach the cadets again.”

“yes… … ?”

Professor Gary Eldos blinked in disbelief.

It has already been more than 20 years since the head of Hedeian’s department gave up teaching.

An existence as symbolic as the Sage of the Mage Tower.

He is a master sorcerer acknowledged by everyone else and a rival who pursues a different school from the sage Egios.

To think that such an amazing archmage would take up teaching again to teach the new blue students.

“In particular, who is the professor in charge of the subject that he must take?”

There are four compulsory courses that cadets with no rank must take.

There were beginner magic theory, beginner magic theory, beginner telekinesis introduction, and finally beginner magic theory.

“I am in charge of beginner magic theory and magic formula theory. Professor Jade is in charge of the introduction to elementary telekinesis, and Professor Othello is in charge of the theory of elementary sorcery.”

“hmm… … I see.”

Gary Eldos asked carefully if he was nervous.

“Dean. What do you need to do… … .”

“Everyone will take care of paid leave. I know very well that professors are tired of long studies.”

Are you saying you’re going to take all the classes yourself?

“Please, exclude me!”

“Um why? Again, paid leave.”

“it’s okay!”

Gary Eldos’ deep gaze toward Ruin.

In the end, the head of Hedeian’s department realized that Professor Gary Eldos, like himself, had fallen for that bizarre and mysterious fellow.

“Don’t do that. Would you like a cup of tea?”

“It is an honour!”

As the Dean of Hedeian and Professor Gary Eldos walked away, Adrena urged Ruin.

“Eh, what the hell happened? What are these frosts and why is the dean doing that?”

However, Ruin did not give Adrena a glance. I just sat down at my desk again and started reading.

At this, Adrena with a slightly angry face tore off Ruin’s shoulder strap.

Jjiik-

Ruin’s brow twisted.

“Didn’t you say 100 lirang?”

“Eh, I have to make it happen. As far as the dean of the department knows, you cannot abet the violation of school rules.”

“He talked about the wizard’s equivalent exchange.”

“What, haven’t you received anything yet?”

Adrena, who had inflated her cheeks poutingly, persuaded Ruin again.

“If you get paid, you can’t come to this library of wisdom anymore. Are you really going to create that situation?”

Louie was annoyed.

It was much faster to read academic books and theory books in the Wisdom Library than to take those stupid classes.

There was no problem with the stares of the cadets glancing at him, but after the head of the department and the professor in charge interrupted him, he couldn’t stand it any longer.

Without the epaulettes of the third-class cadets, the old routine was no longer difficult.

‘The biggest problem is this f*cking ode.’

The most serious problem in the current situation was that there was no way to hide the mana circle.

Thanks to the library of wisdom, I quickly reached the level of the 3rd circle.

However, with the 3rd Circle’s Illusion-type magic, no matter how much they cheated, they couldn’t fool even the high-ranking wizards who could see the texture of magic.

Everyone will consider themselves monsters, just like the sage and dean did.

These risks will continue to haunt you until at least the 6th level.

Something had to be done.

Tup-

When Ruin closed the book and stood up, Adrena’s face turned red.

“Are you going to class again?”

“I have no choice but to do so.”

There was no sharp point.

Wouldn’t it be better than never visiting the Library of Wisdom again?

Ruin cleaned up his seat and left the Library of Wisdom.

* * *

The magic cadets were in an emergency.

Of course, it was a great opportunity to be taught by the famous archmage of the kingdom.

One problem was that he was the dean of the Faculty of Magic with full authority.

“I hear you’re a very eccentric person… … .”

“The old days… … You said you gave the highest penalty points as if you were eating a meal… … .”

“The difficulty of the task is enormous… … .”

The cadets are all depressed at the bleak future that looms before their eyes.

Shiron was also biting her lip with a sunken gaze.

‘This is the worst… … .’

Hedian, head of the Magic Department.

Chiron knew very well that he and his grandfather were like water and oil.

Usually, if you are from the same kingdom, your arms will bend inwards.

Even so, the sage Egios and the head of the department, Hedayan, were at odds with each other, criticizing each other whenever they had a chance at the magic society.

Since he was the grandson of such a wise man, Egios, he was obviously not in favor.

at that time.

“uh? Who is that guy?”

“Louin Ryan?”

buzz buzz—

The classroom quickly becomes noisy when Ruin appears.

It is also true that Ruin had never participated in a class since the first class.

Most of the magic cadets were well aware that he only repeated readings from the Library of Strength and Wisdom.

Ruin Ryan, an eccentric, rank-and-file cadet.

He had reappeared in class at a time when his grades had been taken for granted.

“How many classes you missed, what are you going to do now?”

“There’s not even Joe to do the assignment, right?”

“Even if I try to save it now, it’s a problem. Who wants to hang out with a cadet who missed all the first half classes?”

“Still, I only read books in the library, but wouldn’t there be something great about it?”

“Stupid bastard. If you can become a wizard only with books, why do alternative academies exist?”

When the cadets were chattering about each other, expressing their feelings.

rumbling-

The classroom door opened.

Long, white, white hair.

Cold eyes that make the viewer feel chills down the spine.

A subtle expression that feels erratic, stubborn, and lofty ego at the same time.

The head of the department who entered the classroom opened his mouth coldly as he scanned the students.

“It’s Hedeian, the wizard in charge of the introduction to elementary telekinesis.”

He only said his name, but didn’t elaborate on anything about himself.

Still, the power of his words was great.

Hedian.

Along with the sage Egios, he is the only archmage in the kingdom.

Soon he placed the large magic box on the podium.

When all the cadets’ eyes gathered, the magic box slowly opened.

buzz buzz—

There were eight small metal boxes that glowed coldly on the black cloth.

A sharp-eyed cadet hurriedly exclaimed in the deep color that was uniquely smooth and elegant, as if it were about to be sucked in.

“Ah, adamantium!”

Adamantium, an extremely rare metal.

It is famous for its tremendous strength, but because of its exorcism that dissipates mana, it was a metal with tremendous value as a material for weapons that ward off magic.

“There is something in this little adamantium box. To take the thing out of this box. This is your first task.”

Shiron stiffened in a daze.

This assignment was famous as one of the graduation assignments for fourth-class cadets.

By the way, this for cadets with no rank?

At that time, Lyria quietly raised her hand.

“Something?”

“Should we form a group?”

“It is free. That means it doesn’t matter if you do it alone or if all the students in this class are in the same group.”

Lillia walked without hesitation and took out the adamantium box on the podium.
