Surviving as a Mage in a Magic Academy (Web Novel) - Chapter 1010
Chapter 1010
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
On the way out of the magic tower after finishing their conversation (the Skeleton Principal had to set fire to the main gate to distract the mages attention), the Skeleton Principal asked a question.What do you mean you dealt with the Nago Familys reagents?
I went outside during club week and took on a commission to earn some pocket money. Thats when it happened.
What a diligent fellow. Sometimes I wonder if youre really from the Blue Dragon Tower.
To think he took on and completed commissions in such a short period of time.
There had even been battles with evil deity worshippers in between, hadnt there?
The Skeleton Principal was so impressed that he overlooked his doubts about the Nago Family.
With countless families in the Empire, it wasnt easy for the Skeleton Principal to pay attention to each one individually.
Several knights who had been listening to the conversation were sweating internally.
It was fortunate they didnt have bodies of flesh and blood. Otherwise, they would have been caught long ago.
Lets depart.
Will it be alright? At the next magic tower, if its like here
You dont need to worry about that.
The Skeleton Principal spoke with a confident attitude.
Of course, I did somewhat underestimate how your achievements would appear to outside mages.
-Somewhat?
Somewhat?
The Skeleton Principal ignored the noise and continued speaking.
However, now I understand. Ill appropriately select and tell them just enough for the mages to extend the debt.
What happened at the Daylily Magic Tower was beyond even the Skeleton Principals plans.
The Skeleton Principal had wanted to moderately deceive the mages, not drive them insane.
Deeply reflecting, the Skeleton Principal planned to properly control information going forward to achieve his intended effect.
-But Master. With such a commotion here, wouldnt word spread to other magic towers?
That wont happen.
The Skeleton Principal declared firmly.
Mages only care about themselves, so they absolutely wont spread rumors about things like this.
-Indeed!
Lee Han was dumbfounded but couldnt deny it.
Honestly, even from Lee Hans perspective, the Daylily Magic Tower mages seemed likely to keep the secret.
Even if it meant having a blade at their throats
Wait. But how did Meikin know I had learned the small world?
Now that he thought about it, it was strange.
The contract with the Spirit King was one thing, but learning the small world was relatively recent.
Did Yoner write it in a letter? It seems like there havent been any opportunities to smuggle letters out recently.
-Where is the next magic tower?
Peridot Magic Tower.
-Ah, those fellows who handle telekinesis.
Right. The staff I commissioned Professor Verdus to make last time has finally been completed.
Occasionally, commissions entrusted to Professor Verdus were successfully completed.
This times lucky clients were the mages of the Peridot Magic Tower.
I might be able to persuade them without necessarily bringing up Wardanaz.
-Thats not the case.
The knights spoke frankly with determination.
Mages werent easygoing enough to be pleased and overlook an artifact that was completed much later than the promised deadline.
***
You want us to postpone payment
Please do so.
-!
The knights were shocked when the Peridot Magic Tower mages readily agreed.
Lee Han was equally surprised.
No way. Even so, this easily?
Just how much had Professor Verdus delayed the commission that they would show such favor just for its completion?
Lee Han felt something akin to awe at that infamy.
It was truly masterful procrastination skills that had reached a certain level.
So were just moving on like this?
-It seems like we can. Young master.
The knights answered Lee Hans question with delight.
The knights didnt want another incident like The Daylily Magic Towers Frenzy to happen again either.
While the group was whispering among themselves, one of the Peridot Magic Tower mages pointed at Lee Han and asked.
Is this person Professor Bagreks disciple?
Oops.
At the Skeleton Principals words, Lee Han instinctively realized that something was going wrong.
Principal?
I forgot that these guys are close with Professor Boladi.
You should forget the things you need to forget!
Lee Han was exasperated, but what was done was done. He had no choice but to assess the situation as quickly as possible.
So right now
He couldnt guess exactly how much Professor Bagrek had told them.
He probably mentioned the water orb, and likely talked about Wardanazs telekinesis too
Our Peridot Magic Tower inevitably has quite a number of battle mages. A young and talented mage like Lee Han of the Wardanaz Family would be all the more welcome.
How much have you heard, by any chance?
What do you mean?
The magic tower mage answered with a beaming smile. That smile looked as suspicious as if he were wearing a mask.
The Skeleton Principal gestured to a knight standing beside him. The knight cleared his throat and moved toward the reception room door.
Click!
-
The Death Knight who tried to open the door and check outside was overwhelmed by the sight.
The magic tower mages had somehow gathered silently in front of the reception room.
-It seems were doomed.
Right. I understand.
The Skeleton Principal answered briefly. The beaming mage continued speaking.
Since the door is open, the gift we prepared
The gift is fine! Well just accept the sentiment!
Your Excellency! Didnt you always request donations before! We prepared it, so why are you refusing!
You bastards should look at your eyes in a mirror before saying such things! What are you going to do when you look more deranged than when killing mage criminals!
Having accomplished his purpose, the Skeleton Principal prepared to retreat once again.
This magic tower had many battle mages, making escape several times more troublesome.
Your Excellency! Your Excellency!
Young master. Didnt Professor Bagrek tell you about us?
Actually, Im quite close with Professor Bagrek! I have things to tell you about the professor, so please sit down and just talk with us for a moment before leaving!
Oh, really?
Of course not!
The Skeleton Principal grabbed his disciples ear and opened the reception room window. A knight who had received word was already waiting with a carriage.
Bagrek. This useless bastard!
-But Professor, your friendship with the Nokhuiseok Magic Tower was originally
The death knights tried to defend Professor Boladi.
Professor Boladis friendship with theNokhuiseok Magic Tower was a well-known fact that even the knights were aware of. Since battle mages were mobilized whenever the Empire needed military force, it was impossible for them not to have connections with each other.
Hadnt the Skeleton Principal also laughed heartily with joy when he heard that Professor Boladi was sending letters to the Nokhuiseok Magic Tower mages to increase the intensity of his successors magical education?
Shut up.
-Yes.
The master originally hated being confronted with hard-to-refute points even more. The knights quietly closed their mouths.
The Skeleton Principal sighed at the sight of the mages who didnt give up even as the carriage tried to escape through the air, creating telekinetic stairs in mid-air to chase after them.
You too help no. Just stay still.
Removing the various telekinetic forces interfering with the carriage and safely subduing the pursuing mages to send them back was a very bothersome task.
The Skeleton Principal, who was naturally about to order his disciple to help, changed his mind.
Because the more his disciple showed off, the more the mages of this magic tower seemed likely to go insane.
To think even these guys would have heard about the small world
The Skeleton Principal, who had been muttering, paused.
Come to think of it, while Professor Boladi might have asked about telekinetic magic in his letters since it was lecture content, he probably wouldnt have revealed anything about the small world.
You fellows.
Yes!
The magic tower mages who had been swimming through the air with telekinesis after being pushed away by the Skeleton Principal answered.
Do you happen to know about small worlds too?
Huh? Small worlds, you mean? Of course we know what they are, but why suddenly?
Its nothing! Depart!
The Skeleton Principal felt goosebumps for the first time in a long while.
To think it was this bad even when they didnt know he had mastered small worlds!
***
-Master. How about we stop visiting magic towers for now?
-Thats right. Regardless of the results, Im a bit worried about whether the disciple will be okay later
Lee Han made a very complicated expression at the knights words.
Specifically, what kind of dangers might there be?
-It would be best if you avoid visiting the magic towers we visited today as much as possible in the future.
-Even if you do visit, absolutely do not consume any food or drinks they offer.
Lee Han deeply engraved the advice the death knights were giving him.
It didnt seem like it would be very helpful, but still
No! The remaining magic towers will really be fine now.
-
Lee Han and the knights sent looks full of distrust. The Skeleton Principal comforted them as if he understood.
I understand your feelings too! Of course, there were unusually many unexpected incidents.
Honestly, shouldnt you have anticipated the Nokhuiseok Magic Tower
How am I supposed to remember all of Professor Boladis connections? The Nokhuiseok Magic Tower incident is Professor Boladis fault for bragging about his disciple in detail like a doting parent.
Wow. His shamelessness is almost on Professor Verduss level.
Ill perfectly control the information for the remaining magic towers to create the intended effect.
It seems like whenever you deal with mages, Principal, things strangely backfire
Indeed, hes perceptive.
The knights were inwardly impressed.
To realize such a secret already. He truly had the qualifications to be a successor.
-Master. A letter.
The knight sitting in the coachmans seat pointed to a paper bird flying from afar. The Skeleton Principal said indifferently.
Did the Nokhuiseok Magic Tower send it?
-No.
The Onchuri Magic Tower?
-No.
No? Then dont burn it and bring it here.
If it was a letter from a magic tower, he was planning to burn it immediately, but if not, that was a different story.
The Skeleton Principal received the paper bird and checked its contents.
Erindarvel sent it.
!
The other person was an archmage famous enough that even Lee Han had heard the name.
What did she send it for?
Well. Last time she sent one, it was an apology letter Did Yukveltire cause another accident perhaps?
Huh? Why does my senior come up
What. Werent you two close? Erindarvel is Yukveltires mother.
Lee Han was greatly surprised.
And even while surprised, he accurately denied what needed to be denied.
Were not close.
I, I see. Got it.
If his memory was correct, the last letters content was definitely an apology letter about an accident during vacation where Yukveltire had involved several mages, including a friend from the Black Magic Academy.
At that time, the Skeleton Principal had generously replied.
Saying that as mages live their lives, they can cause spatial distortions and overlaps, and thats how they grow, right?
Of course, the mages who got involved had slightly different thoughts, but that wasnt the Skeleton Principals concern.
I send this letter to the dear Lord Gonadaltes.
I received word from Yukveltire that your disciple mastered small world magic in his second year.
If you would permit it, during your visit to the magic towers this time, I would like to personally observe the capabilities possessed by this pillar of the Empires future.
Thank you.
P.S. Yukveltire is trying to sue you in the Imperial Court over the matter of having her research agreement stolen. I await your explanation regarding this.
Erindarvel
The Skeleton Principal, who had been thinking about the letters contents, paused.
If Yukveltire had told Erindarvel, and Erindarvel also knew that his disciple had mastered small worlds?!
Turn the carriage around!
-Master. The mages have already come out to greet us ahead
