I Became an Academy Regular

Chapter 68

Cramming (3)

“What are you talking about now?”

Aiden narrows her eyes and looks at me. I was expecting this, but I’m worried about this kind of reaction again.

I gibberish so as not to offend Aiden.

“I know what this means to the wizard. It’s because an outsider is asking you to learn something like a weapon of your own. To be honest, I don’t think there’s anything to be said for swearing. Still…”

“Ah… wait a minute. Isn’t that what you’re talking about?”

Aiden’s expression became subtle. what do you know about that Was this a more rude request than I thought?

“No. All right. I misunderstood for a moment.”

But maybe that wasn’t the case, Aiden brushed up the silver hair that had flowed down with his hand. His tiny exposed ears are red for some reason.

“I’ve never made such a request before, but seeing that… it’s because you applied for this expedition, isn’t it?”

Aiden also applied for the expedition with the other guys this time, so he knew I was going too.

“Uh. Last time I was fighting with Park Noah in a team match, I realized that I had fewer means to fight than I thought.”

He said he would switch from a gun to another weapon, but at this point, the firepower and characteristics above average were already specialized in that area, so I was unknowingly reliant on a weapon called a gun.

Fortunately, even firepower is focused on one characteristic of ‘Matan’, so there was no way to use it if the opponent was able to respond to it.

So is magic.

Currently, I am using the two magics I have learned usefully, but neither of them have very fast projectiles, so their uses are limited.

‘I’m glad I felt it sooner than I thought…’

It was my first time nurturing a combination of magic and gunner, so I didn’t even realize that it was a monotonous fighting style. All the enemies I’ve met so far have been lucky.

Aiden tapped the desk lightly with his finger.

“Hmm…. There’s about a week left until the expedition starts, can I come and learn by then?”

“It’s probably possible. I don’t know to what level it’s possible.”

As long as the ‘magical knowledge’ that I had experienced in the past melted into my body, I was confident that I could learn it easily. There are limitations, but if it’s at the [Waterball] level that Rein Castell taught me last time, I’m sure I’ll be able to learn it right away this time too.

Aiden shook his head to see if he was convinced of my confidence.

“Well. You have good eyes for mana. First of all, you know that we can’t teach you our family’s vision, right?”

“Yeah. Of course not.”

I don’t even want to go there It was enough just to teach them magic. Then, Aiden accepted the request more coolly than I expected.

“Okay. I’ll let you know. You’ve given me a precious elixir as a favor, and I don’t know what might happen in the future, but that’s all I can tell you.”

“Really? Thank you.”

“But what kind of magic do you want?”

“I wish it was an attack magic that could be used immediately.”

attack magic. Aiden thought for a moment and then put his hand on the magic book.

“It’s fine. I also have a magic book…”

When he discouraged Aiden from buying the magic book, he tilted his head and asked.

“You don’t have to work so hard to teach the theory.”

“Yeah…? Then how will you learn?”

“Kick your forearms and cast spells. You just need to show them how the mana rods shine.”

“Because I’ll learn it myself.”

Hearing this, Aiden blinked and immediately turned a disgusted expression on his face.

“Wow… that sounds unfortunate.”

Well, what do you do with the good stuff?

It’s limited to magic.

Aiden looked at the mana rods drawn on my forearm and muttered absurdly.

“···It becomes real. This is what it really is. The last time Mr. Castel learned the magic as soon as he showed it to him, I thought he was exaggerating…”

I felt a new attribute flowing through the Mana Road.

In addition to water and ice, mana of fire properties began to flow. Concentrating on the flow, I feel a warm energy.

“Didn’t you tell me before? My talent is great.”

“I said it, but I didn’t know it was going to get to this extent. I guess I need to upgrade Jihan’s evaluation in my head.”

“It’s an honor.”

“But really, is that enough? Are you okay with other magic? I can show you more magic at that level.”

Thank you very much, but I shook my head.

“Even if I learn it in random order, I think it will be difficult to apply it to battle.”

As you just learned, simple magic to use during battle was enough.

“I’m going to learn other magic, but I’m going to ask Castel to teach me some defensive magic. The water attribute is the main sequence.

“Oh, he’s probably in the library right now.”

“Really? It’s just fine.”

I lowered my rolled up sleeves and immediately stood up.

“Aiden, thank you so much for letting me know. I’ll buy some rice next time.”

“Hmm. Are you going straight away like this?”

Is it too materialistic? As soon as he gets the magic, he tries to leave as if his business is over.

As I tried to sit back on the couch, Aiden clenched his chin and smirked.

“I’m joking. Be careful with what you say to Mr. Castel.”

“What are you talking about?”

“···No, that’s all right. Let’s go quickly when Mr. Castel is in the library.”

“Uh, okay. Thank you so much for teaching me magic.”

“yes~.”

I said hello and quietly closed the door to the private room and left. Aiden looked uneasy for some reason.

to be careful? Are you saying that I should ask you to teach me more politely?

As I looked around the library, I quickly found a man with gray hair. He was at the place where he had learned magic the other day. Across from Rhine Castell was Russell Tales.

I sneaked over to the seat next to him and dragged the chair, and Castell and Tails, who heard the sound, looked at me and were startled.

“Disciple? What happened all of a sudden?”

Another disciple Taryeong. But I have no intention of mentioning it. It’s me that’s sad now.

I coughed hoarsely and spoke politely.

“Castell. I’m sorry to suddenly say, but can you teach me magic?”

At my words, Castell frowned and frowned, and even Tails, who was next to him, took off his glasses and looked at me. Tails looked into Castell’s eyes and asked.

“Are you joking, are you serious, or are you saying you don’t know?”

“········What are you talking about?”

It’s kind of a weird reaction. Am I wrong rather than a rude request? it feels like

It was a face that said I didn’t understand English, and Tails immediately smiled bitterly.

“Oh, yes. How does Jihan know the culture of ‘Tower’?”

“Tower? Why is the tower suddenly appearing?”

At my question, Tails said, pointing to Rein Castell, who had a grumpy expression on his face.

“You know he belongs to the tower? That’s a buzzword for me there? Slang? It’s the same thing.”

“Are you asking me to teach you some magic?”

Russell Tails nodded, naturally feeling anxious. I hesitated and asked what it meant.

“What does that mean?”

“Put your ear closer.”

Before speaking, Tails looked around and checked the people, and explained the contents in a quieter voice than the sound of his breath.

And when I heard it, I touched my forehead.

‘crazy.’

“…was it like going to eat ramen?”

To be precise, it was a more blatant and deeper expression than that. I can now understand Aiden’s reaction earlier. It was because I was talking nonsense as soon as I arrived. That was the thing to be careful about…

I didn’t know, but I’ll have to apologize later.

“Would you like some ramen? What do you mean by that?”

“No… I think I made some word mistakes.”

Then Castel, who was sitting opposite him, nodded.

“Then. You made me goosebumps, so you can’t tell me. You should know now.”

“I feel sorry for you too.”

Castell said with a surprised expression on my apology.

“Huh? You’re just apologizing. As usual, I thought you’d get angry for using such a confusing expression.”

Am I that much of an open-minded person? After a brief silence, Castell closed the book he was reading and spoke quietly.

“So what I just said is, after all, a literal meaning. Did you feel it because of the fight with Noah?”

“Uh. I know it’s ignorant, but I want to increase the means of fighting before I go to support. Why not?”

As I hesitated, Castell smiled and folded her arms.

“I think it’s better to be a person without a conscience than a coward.”

“If the request was made without even applying to the expedition, I would have rejected it immediately…, isn’t it you? There are limitations, but I’ll teach you to the extent possible.”

Everyone teaches about magic easier than I thought. If I had known this would be the case, I would have asked for it sooner. Then Castell waved her finger and said.

“Instead, there are conditions.”

“Conditions? Any number.”

“When you call yourself, call me Master.”

······ For a while, it seems that the prince’s condolences have to be adjusted.

Today, when the time I promised with Beatrice came, I headed to the auditorium and checked the status window.

[Ignite – Instant] [*Acquire]

* Consumes mana to create a spark in sight. Casting speed and mana consumption vary depending on firepower.

[Waterball – Shock]

* Converts mana into waterballs. The size varies depending on the mana consumption.

[Water Shield – Shock Relief] [*Acquired]

* Consumes mana to create a water-property barrier around it. Size and duration vary depending on mana consumption.

‘I can’t even look at it.’

In just one day yesterday, I learned two new magics. I regret that I didn’t learn it until now.

Seeing that the guys in the tower are surprised, it doesn’t seem that easy magic takes a short time to learn.

Amouton With this, an instant attack magic, ‘Ignition’ and defensive magic, and ‘Water Shield’ were created.

‘But it took a while.’

It would be nice to be able to learn magic at random, but… According to Castell, there is a limit to how much magic can be learned at once depending on talent.

That’s the part I don’t like. The reason this body learns magic easily is because there is an innate talent, but it has too many ‘characteristics’ for aspiring heroes.

‘When it comes to dealing with mana, it is said that it is similar to Oh Yoon-ha, who has a ‘mana’ personality.’

Even though it is easy to learn magic thanks to this, I do not know how much magic is the limit.

For reference, in the case of Noah Park, she could learn magic without limit. And that’s a talent that’s possible because he’s the main character.

He has the untitled talent to handle all weapons, and the talent to learn magic without limit.

‘I’m envious.’

I didn’t know it when I was playing as a playable character myself, but I was able to feel how much the wall felt when I was in someone else’s point of view. It was not for nothing that villains were created out of jealousy towards Park Noah.

When I entered the auditorium, the lights were already on. A woman with pink hair stood where she had always been. She came sooner than expected. I checked the time, but it was not yet the appointment time.

As I ran lightly, Beatrice looked at me and waved her hand.

“Come on!”

“I said you’d come sooner…, did you come earlier than me?”

“Yes. These days, this is the only fun time I have.”

Beatrice continued, pouring out weapons from subspace.

“I can’t think of any other thoughts while teaching aspiring heroes.”

What a bittersweet word I agreed as I took off the jersey I was wearing so that I could feel more comfortable.

“So do i.”

“Ahaha. Okay? So, what weapon would you like to use today?”

Before that, I raised my hand and spoke to Beatrice.

“Ah, before that, I have something to ask you today.”

“Actually, I know how to use magic.”
