In the early morning at Rabatenon University, a warm wind was blowing that was not suitable for the season.
Warmth is circted and cold air is let out through the barriers that spread across the entire university grounds.
Lennok had no idea how much this process would cost, but it was clear that the university was paying for it all.
Labatenon, a magical university that stands at the forefront of educational institutions under the direct control of the city government.
This ce, which had built a position by pouring a huge budget into the posture of wizards who did not want to be bound by the magic tower, had apletely different look from the cold and dark Balkanndscape that Lennok had experienced so far.
Was the air that those who had both luck and talent enjoyed so warm and cozy?
I was lost in thought while being greeted by the warm wind that blew.
“haha!”
“one two! one two!”
Even though it is morning, there are not a few people who are devoted to exercise throughout the brightly decorated university grounds.
The appearance of a beautiful and antique building like a pce. The scenery of green and fresh vegetation even in winter. Neat and tidy streets of the university.
In the meantime, the students who were enthusiastic about self-improvement, wandering around vigorously, did not seem too bad to Lennok.
Learning magic doesn’t necessarily mean you have to neglect training your body, and it’s actually full of advantages.
Hey Lennok, because of this damn penalty, he was forced to tinker with other abilities and equipment, but wasn’t Eden, the boss of Ciger Bang, also a strong physique even though he was a skilled wizard.
Preparing for closebat in case of emergency was indeed the right attitude as a mage.
With that thought in mind, I was about to walk past the people exercising to Aris’sb when I suddenly heard someone running from behind.
Even considering that he was running, his steps were quite light.
A refreshing scent that can be felt even when jumping from behind.
Dark ultramarine blue hair casually leaping past Lennok.
His stable posture, recognizable at a nce even in a training suit, is impressive, but he has nothing to do with Lennok.
I thought that I want to bloom the beginning of the year, and I let it flow indifferently.
Until the towel tied around her waist untied and flew towards Lennok.
“……?”
flutter!
I inadvertently raised my magic and tried to hold onto the towel, but stopped when I felt the woman’s gaze looking back.
Reluctantly, I tried to snatch the towel that was floating in the air with my bare hands, but I ended up messing around in the air.
“……..”
A strange sensation that my body moves on its own even though I saw it clearly and reached out.
Even if I felt it myself, Iughed at the absurd motor nerve.
It can respond to the attacks of superhumans in seconds, but if you don’t use magic, you miss the towel fluttering in front of your eyes like this.
From now on, it seemed that in all matters involving the use of the body, it would be necessary to spare no assistance, including magic power.
‘It’s probably like a bike. At least I shouldn’t be greedy until I create a usible boarding aid magic.’
It’s different from a car that has some safety devices.
Sebastian hinted that he woulde to him whenever he wanted a bike, but Lennok needed his own preparation to ride it.
‘It seems like there’s nothing I can’t do if I fix and improve the principles of shooting assist magic, but… I won’t know until I touch it myself.’
While he was holding a towel and thinking, a woman in a sweatsuit strode forward and stared up at Lennok.
A cold expression with his voluminous ultramarine blue hair tied back in a ponytail.
If Aris had a hint of coolness in her sophistication, the woman standing in front of her was a beauty with the impression of being wrapped in ice.
It wasn’t until Lennok saw the face that he remembered who she was.
Prisci Leonix.
A student in Professor Aris Richellen’s Department of Elements ss, and at the same time a blood rtive of an excellent wizarding family called the Leonix family.
And one of the talented young wizards who shook off the hands of the many magic towers and entered Rabatenon University.
As always, people are overly interested in other people’s stories and love to talk.
It was only the stories he overheard while helping Aris prepare for ss, but Lennok already knew all about her background and what kind of magic she used.
Even the fact that she, who is only a sophomore in undergraduate school, is already receiving love calls from various researchbs.
“……..”
Scy frowned subtly as if she recognized him just as Lennok recognized her.
She handed her the towel in silence, and she quickly reached out, but Lennok took a step back, pulling his hand back.
Naturally, Si’s expression frowned.
“What are you doing?”
Instead of answering, Lennok quietly pointed his finger behind her.
As the towel fell, all kinds of items were lined up on the floor following her, as if the contents of the pocket came out together.
“………”
Scy turned around with a nonchnt face and quickly picked up her belongings, but Lennok did not miss the fact that the tips of her ears were stained red.
A cell phone with a broken screen, an earphone with only one side of the lip gloss remaining without a lid.
Contrary to what it looks like on the outside, it seems to have a rather sloppy personality.
Forgetting even the towel she had spilled at the beginning, he grabbed her and turned around, but she opened her mouth first behind Lennok’s back.
“I overheard your conversation with the professor.”
“yes?”
“You can’t use magic at all.”
Lennok turned his head in silence at Scy’s gaze looking up at him with a slightly awkward expression.
‘I’ve had a conversation with Aris about magic-rted topics… recently.’
While helping her prepare for lectures, we had a lot of time to talk about this and that, and it seemed that I had overheard the conversation.
While quietly retrieving her memory, Scy continued.
“You’d better be careful.”
“……”
“If they knew that the assistant professor wasn’t a magician, there would naturally be more people who would bite them.”
Lennoxughed lightly at the unexpected words.
It was a word I never expected toe out of that cold expression.
“Are you worried about me right now?”
“…I’m not very interested in Professor Richellen’sb, but other people will be different.”
“okay.”
said Lennok with a grin.
“But everyone who should know already knows. Especially if you’re someone who doesn’t like that I’m here.”
“…..yes?”
It’s a day or two to hide, and if you don’t use magic at all in the midst of fighting with students at university, you can’t help but stand out as it is.
Besides, when Aris registered Lennok as an assistant professor at the Faculty Department, he was registered as a mystic without magical powers, so there must be some rumors among the staff who are already silent.
In the meantime, if others make up their minds and start digging into Lennok’s identity, the fact that he is pretending to be a normal person with no magical powers will inevitably be revealed.
A poor disguised identity that is not strange even when it copses.
That was the reality of the third name, Evan Bylon.
Scy looked at Lennok with a disapproving expression, then slightly turned her head and said,
“My older sister has no talent for mana handling, so she couldn’t adapt to this kind of life and ran away.”
“……”
“Of course, it’s just your job, but… I don’t want to see that kind of person twice.”
“You don’t have to worry too much.”
Lennox replied while maintaining a grin.
“Even if I can’t handle magic, there are many things I can do.”
“………”
“And if I hang out with the students here, wouldn’t it be possible for me to awaken my magical powers?”
Whenever he encounters such unexpected good intentions, he realizes how important the meeting with Aris was to him.
A goodwill without a thorough deal or a mix of interests was the kind that was hard for Lennok to understand and hard to turn away from.
So, in order to maintain a life in such a sunny ce, you should know how to take care of yourself.
Dealing with such shady feelings and tricks was something Lennok was very familiar with.
Scy looked at Lennok with an expression of disapproval and turned away, and
Lennok silently waved the towel she had forgotten.
I forgot the Prisci towel.
………
Now that I see it, it seems that I am forgetful because I amcking in sloppy things.
Confusion
“I hear there are a lot of inquiries about you from the Department of Faculty, Lenok.”
“………”
I heard that S had a clue, but I couldn’t believe that Aris was already aware of it.
In a way, it is natural.
Aris Richellen is neither so ipetent nor ignorant.
Even more so, he was not the kind of person who would turn a blind eye to a problem even when he was clearly aware of it.
A hardwood with a strong woody scent. ntse alive in the spacious office.
All kinds of books tightly packed on the wide bookshelf and piles of unknown papers piled far away on the desk.
“Haa…”
In the meantime, Aris sighed deeply with a troubled expression.
“This is my mistake.”
“What do you mean?”
“I didn’t consider the aftermath when I brought you to myb… It’s my mistake not to have thought the reaction would be this intense.”
“Um…”
He didn’t mean to deny that, but Lennok didn’t think she would ever consider such a thing in the first ce.
Even though Lennok thinks he has no magical powers, she sees only his abilities and rmends research, so she is a person who only sees people as their true essence.
It must have been difficult for such a person who approached with good intentions about what was happening around him to count the negative emotions of other students.
“Since the notice was put in the administrative office, they will issue a notice to the students collectively. In particr, we have decided to issue a disciplinary measure up to expulsion for those who harm ordinary people who do not have magical powers in any way.”
“…… It’s a very bold move.”
“There is no reason to waste your abilities and talents for nothing. Preventing that is also a responsibility that I must protect for my researcher.”
Aris’ eyes shone coldly.
“In addition, I will make sure to set an example so that this does not happen again.”
“……..”
She is basically a good person, but that doesn’t mean she is just obedient and docile.
Rather, like a high-level wizard, it would be natural for him to show a fairly relentless attitude if he was considered an enemy by default.
But Lennok shook his head as soon as he heard Aris’ words.
“I’m sorry, but if the professor steps forward, public opinion will get worse.”
“……yes?”
No matter how much Aris said that he scouted Lennok for his theoretical research ability, there are a few things that he must do once he entered as an assistant professor.
Helping her prepare for ss, collecting and organizing data from rted experiments or samples, and exining before ss.
At least as long as you belong to the framework of a university, it is natural to inevitably run into trouble with students.
A notice through the administrative office would be helpful, but Aris directly covering Lennok directly makes it easy to incur resentment even for those who have no feelings for him.
It made a lot more sense to leave it alone for now and, as time went on, weed out the students who didn’t like Lennock.
Aris immediately understood what Lennok was saying and nodded.
“I see… You mean that you will find a realistic solution while considering my reputation. I wasn’t looking at the wrong person.”
She seems a bit moved by Lennok’s concern, but it’s actually not that difficult.
It’s just that she can’t just look at students badly, so it’s just an idea that’s hard toe up with.
“yes. As the professor said, it won’t be difficult if you take care of the artifacts for self-defense.”
…. I also got a decent artifact from her.
In the end, Lennok was able to leave Aris’ study only after receiving a very satisfactory answer.
Today, Aris’ lecture is scheduled in lecture hall 3.
There were a few items that Lennok had to prepare for the magic demonstration, but he had already memorized the manual, so there shouldn’t be any major problems.
Just as he was about to enter the lecture hall after loading the cart with the jewel catalyst that was to be used in this lecture, someone suddenly stopped Lennok from beside him.
“Assistant Professor Bylon.”
A female student whose face I had seen in the ssroom was smiling awkwardly.
Her name was… maybe Beira. There is nothing special about it, so I can barely remember the name.
“Do you have business?”
“yes. I think the demonstration equipment that will be used in today’s lecture doesn’t work well. I would like to ask the assistant professor to confirm it once.”
“……….”
Just hearing that makes it obvious that she wants to y tricks.
A polite smile twitched from the corner of her mouth as Lennok smiled.
However, maybe it was because she was conscious of the gazes of the other students in the lecture hall, Beira, who maintained her initial attitude until the end, slowly turned around and began guiding him.
As I walked along the hem of my fluttering blouse, I noticed arge piece of equipment the size of a bed, located under the wide ckboard inside the ssroom.
A body that exudes pure white metallic light, with joints painted in matte ck. Even the blue magic light leaking from the ss that illuminates the interior.
Lennok knew roughly what this equipment was as he had read the manual in advance.
This equipment had a function to visualize with the naked eye the process of splitting andbining the injected mana as a product of magic engineering equipment airlifted by Aris Richellen to exin the principles of elemental magic.
It was surprising that Aris had so much knowledge in magic engineering that she designed and designed suchplex and advanced equipment herself, but what was more impressive was how much effort she put into for the sake of her students.
It was only natural that there were so many students who admired her and wanted to enter theboratory.
Other students were already crowded in front of the equipment, struggling to make it work somehow.
It looks like the students started it on their own before the lecture, and then there was a problem.
It was natural for the assistant professor to appear naturally.
Seeing Prisci standing at a distance from the students, arms crossed, Lennok turned his eyes to the equipment.
“You mean check this equipment?”
“yes.”
Seeing Beira’s smiling face, Lennok thought for a moment.
‘I didn’t directly damage the equipment.’
In this world where magic has developed, leaving a trace like that will only be a handshake that strangles the subject.
It was right to see what would end up as a student’s responsibility as a clever attempt to share responsibility by naturally drawing Lennok into it.
‘Are you using the situation to properly achieve what you want? It’s like a wizard.’
The problem is that I don’t know what level the problem with the equipment is
…
Lennok secretly estimated the distance to Aris and immediately raised his mana.
Lennok’s mana management ability, honed in countless battles, was already sharper than a de and more stealthy than sound.
Of course, Beira and other students didn’t notice at all that Lennok was raising his magic right in front of him.
Pajijik…!!
As it is, it extends magic power to the equipment, spins it all the way, and digs into the inner circuit while looking at the problem as it is.
With Lennok’s understanding of magical engineering and magic maniption ability, it took only 2 seconds to determine the condition of the equipment.
I don’t know any specific parts and names of the equipment, but it’s a matter of seconds to realize which function has a problem.
As it is a device designed by Aris himself, its internal environment is designed very precisely and sensitively.
When she handled the device herself, it would have been no problem since she would operate it with her excellent magic maniption ability, but it seemed that the students were upset when they touched it out of curiosity.
“Do you know where the problem is?”
“During the magical power injection process, the conversion circuit that changes the movement so that it can be seen with the naked eye is tangled. It seems that a mistake urred in the process of injecting more magic power than the injectable capacity.”
“……..yes?”
Beira’s answer came ratherte.
And the faces of the other students staring at him with bewildered expressions.
It was only after seeing Scy in the distance, slightly bewildered, that Lennok realized his mistake and clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘I should have pretended to touch the equipment. I made a mistake.’
The process of looking into the internal design of the equipment was quite interesting, so I forgot my surroundings for a while.
It was the same in the confrontation with the wizard, but sometimes Lennok’s own inquiring mind or curiosity came out before his reason.
Lennok quickly shook his head and continued speaking leisurely.
“On the surface, there seems to be nothing wrong, but if you listen to the sound of the equipment, you can tell there is a problem.”
As Lennok said, he managed to bend down very naturally and put his hand on the equipment.
When I gently tapped the empty space inside using magical energy, a huge vibrating sound erupted as if I had been waiting for it.
Woooooo…!!
“Ugh!”
“What’s wrong…”
“Isn’t it a big deal?”
Leaving behind the students who were taken aback by the apparently alien noise, Lennok channeled his mana straight into the equipment.
“Anyway, the core operating principle is a part that artificially implements elemental magic. If that part is not damaged, other problems can be solved with just some adjustment from the outside like this.”
At the same time, in order to divert the attention of the students, they unravel theories in their heads moderately.
“The most basic principle of transporting magic that is out of the wizard’s control is artificial propulsion. After that, the goal is to alternately expand and contract to take the initially transmitted force without spilling it as much as possible.”
The magician stretched out with maniption-type magic flowed all over the equipment, attached it, and slowly started adjusting it by pulling and pushing it very finely.
By sending magic power through the circuit, it untangles the tangled parts and grinds the area around the worn inlet to expand the usable area.
“If there is a problem with the circuit that transmits horsepower, there is a possibility that it will not be able to withstand the expansion and contraction that urs during transportation and may be damaged.”
There is nothing we can do about the parts that have already worn out, but there is no problem with the performance of the product as long as the injection part is improved.
The moment Lennok reached that conclusion and removed his hand from inside the equipment, the equipment, which had been rattling loudly like a lie, stabilized and began to produce a pleasant rumbling sound.
Weeeeeeeeing…!
“So, it would be good for students not to touch the necessary materials for ss.”
Saying that, Lennok shook his knees and rose from his seat.
“………”
The students just stared at Lennok in surprise, but said nothing.
It wasn’t just fixing simple equipment, it was working on magic engineering equipment designed by Aris himself.
Aplicated facility that even university students who are said to have a talent for magic cannot touch.
Everyone in this room knew that it would be impossible to spot a problem with just a nce and fix it on the spot without in-depth knowledge of magic theory and magic engineering.
In just one moment, he felt that the way he looked at him was changing, but Lennok didn’t stop there.
Rather, he erased the businesslike expression he had been making until then and grinned.
“I don’t know who did it, but I’ll keep it a secret from the professor. Be careful in the future.”
“Thank you!”
Laughter erupted from here and there along with the greeting of a young man who looked a little foolish.
“You stupid bastard, I told you not to y around with that!”
“Anyway, they do all sorts of strange things to impress the professor.”
“Just listen in ss, you idiot!!”
Would this change the disapproving look at Lennok?
Lennok didn’t think so.
Beira’s expression, hiding behind the students and staring at him, was a mixture of surprise and disapproval rather than satisfaction.
However, it was enough to nt a positive impression on most of the students who had no special feelings towards him from the beginning.
Thinking so, Lennok took a step back and slowly scanned the room.
Because I needed to see how other students reacted to this trivial incident that just happened.
The figure of S who turns her head away as if it doesn’t matter at all, and the young male student who calmly fell asleep.
From afar, with a strong physique and a ck head whoughed with the crowd surrounding him.
Despite the diverse mix of students, what Lennok wants is simple.
Preparations to nip off those who interfered with his research life were progressing little by little but surely.
Pajijijik
promising the future …!!
Taaang!!
“Hmm…”
Late at night.
Lennox’s house. A separate closedboratory.
Hard iron bars have been added to the windows that were wide open, and thick iron tes are embedded in the walls that were surrounded by old wallpaper.
As the time spent in theboratory for magical research grew longer, the amount of objects and environments that Lennok invested in theboratory was gradually increasing.
It is very important to feel a sense of aplishment every time you invest time.
It makes me sure right now, notter, that what I am doing is not wrong and that this time sweating now is not in vain.
Lennok’s efforts and investments in magic and his belief in his talents were far beyond a simple sense of duty.
But even so, creating new magic isn’t always easy.
“As expected, it doesn’t work as expected…”
Lennok said as he looked down at the small model motorcycle on the floor.
The model was rocking unsteadily from side to side with two wheels attached to the floor.
There is only one reason why a motorcycle model is bncing on its own without any force.
Boarding aid magic.
Lennok was developing the necessary magic to directly handle vehicles including bikes in the future.
Practical know-how on unique magic that I realized while studying Eden’s research journal.
The theoretical knowledge improved through constant discussions with Aris was a great help in raising Lennok’s magic to the next level, but it was only a result of grafting existingws into his magic system.
It is only possible to moderately estimate the possibility of creating a series he has never dealt with or apletely new unique magic.
It was an inefficient task with Lennok’s current magic power and assets.
However, it is a secondary magic that has rtively limited uses, consumes little mana, and has a simple principle.
Among them, I was trying to improve the shooting assist magic to create a new auxiliary magic…
‘It’s too practical.’
Disassembling the magic principle used in shooting assist magic and remodeling it sessfully was sessful.
Considering the fact that quite a few wizards barely even understand the principles of magic, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Lennok has already moved beyond being a mere magic user and has reached the level of truly exploring magic.
However, the problem was that the two disciplines, shooting and boarding, were notpatible in practice.
Basically, shooting assist magic focuses on the way to strengthen the act of shooting, and the part that Lennok has improved has also been carried out in such a way as to make use of its strengths.
However, the boarding aid magic needs to be taken care of, such as basic bncing, safety control, and speed adjustment, which can help Lennok’s dull body.
The problem was that digging into this area would eventually deviate from the scope of auxiliary magic.
In short, the value for money is not good.
If you put mana into it and hit it, it will somehow return, but what’s the point if you consume all the mana while riding the bike?
To put it bluntly, it was tantamount to flowing mana instead of oil through the exhaust port.
Apart from feeling the need for transportation, it would be much more profitable to just take a taxi when the fuel economy is not so good.
“…..It’s not like you can’t be full on the first spoonful.”
Aside from digging into magic with transcendent talent and phenomenal intuition, Lennok’s magical powers and assets are limited.
The fact that no suitable answeres to mind even after thinking about this further proves that Lennok’s knowledge and assets limit his capabilities for the time being.
It would be great if he coulde up with the perfect answer here, but even if that’s not the case, Lennok won’t be disappointed or give up.
Infinite quest for magic and endless patience were also among the magician’s talents he possessed.
Lennok took care of his regret and organized the notebooks piled up on his desk.
When he first escaped from the factory, his magic research, which was only three memo pads, was now growing to the extent that it could not be contained in a single notebook.
