Chapter 29 – The Lady of the North (1)
As Professor Linnemann wished, he demonstrated ancient magic several times in front of him.
While modern magic is specialized for each person’s magical attributes, ancient magic is not limited by attributes as long as the interaction with the magic circle is successful.
In other words, if only the method of ’emotion’ could be universally distributed, it would be possible to use various magics regardless of attributes.
If realized, it would be an achievement that would upset the magic world of the continent.
It’s understandable that Professor Linnemann’s eyes are turned upside down.
‘It’s a good thing for me.’
There were no ancient magic users, so only the magic circle was preserved, but the actual magic formula was not even properly interpreted.
Professor Rinnemann scraped a lot of ancient magic circles from the database that he could browse and presented them to me.
“Is this possible?”
“Of course.”
Then I accept it and repeat it just like when I reacted to the ancient magic [Moon’s Grace].
Actually, I wanted to come up with something as useful as [Moon’s Grace], So I happily reacted to the magic circles one by one.
‘The only thing that’s useful is ‘healing’.’
The advantage of ancient magic is that you can use a variety of magic if only the response method is popular, and the downside is that it is so diverse.
Magic that promotes the growth of crops is useless to me, and magic such as fireball is a basic magic that can be used easily even if it does not match the attribute.
Moreover, since he was immortal, he had no choice but to use healing magic on others.
Is it fortunate that there is no longer a need to feed blood to heal?
Anyway, the only thing I got properly was the grace of the moon, so I sighed lightly as I was expecting it in my heart.
‘By the way.’
It was funny to see the old man running around in disgrace at the fact that even these magics had been revealed.
Is that good?
“Professor Linnemann.”
“This is a great improvement! If we study the use of magic circles and the commonalities between magic circles, maybe more information will come out… ! Maybe the thesis of the century will be completed… !”
I’m not listening.
“Professor.”
A little bit of mana flowed to make it feel like pressure, and only then did Professor Linnemann’s focus return.
Even if you clear your throat as if you were showing ugliness. The image has long since been destroyed.
“Hmm. Hum-hum… Sorry. It’s been a lifelong dream…”
“Yes, what. Anyway, is this enough for today?”
“Yes, yes. It will take some time to research what we learned today. Really, how should I express my gratitude to His Highness…”
“Once you get a new magic circle, please show it to me next time. That is enough.”
I had neither the need nor the heart to accept a bribe from a professor, so I declined to show my sincerity.
What I need is new magic, not money. First of all, money is overflowing.
However, the professor seemed to understand my words as helping me with research in the future.
In addition, when I roughly drew a geometrical magic circle that changed while the response was connected, he called the assistant outside.
“This will be the discovery of the century! Summarize the commonalities between this “Crop Growth Promotion” Magic and “Swamp Creation” Magic! One o’clock is urgent!”
Oops
I don’t know if that can be sorted out.
If you understand it through ’emotion’, you will immediately draw the shape of the geometric magic circle that changes every moment in your head, but you can’t draw it all on paper, so you only draw the appropriate parts separately.
I recalled the pattern of shape change in my head and then quit.
It would be really difficult without the response.
You know what

As I was leaving the lab and walking back to the dormitory, someone stopped me.
I never thought there would be someone brave enough to block me and my path in the middle of the street I was walking on.
Azure-blue hair close to white, and sky-blue eyes as well.
Even though the weather is not that hot, she wears short clothes that are too exposed.
Pure white skin.
Hmm.
“Anna Kroychev…”
She’s the Princess of the North. No matter how you look at it
I didn’t even see the entrance ceremony.
“I know you well.”
…
After I was silent for a moment, the woman who appeared to be her attendant hurriedly opened her mouth.
“Majesty! Please allow me to dare to interpret the words of the princess! Our princess is still clumsy with the central language!”
Ah.
… The original Mikhail didn’t have that kind of setting, right?
I’m not sure, but I just nodded my head.
“I wanted to meet you. Crow.”
“I have always admired His Highness the Duke of Chepes, who has a reputation throughout the empire, and it is an honor to meet you like this!”
“Ah… Thank you.”
Is that right?
Since the other side calmly talked about it, I wonder if I should do the same or if they said it was because they didn’t know, should I treat them with mutual respect?
In terms of distribution, of course, I’m on top.
“The princess says she has something to tell Her Highness… !”
Perhaps he knew my expression was subtle, and the interpreter became desperate. Looking at it, he seems to be the Gongnyeo’s closest aide, and he seems to have a pretty precious body, but I thought it was hard work.
Her efforts were imaginary, so she nodded.
“Tell me.”
“I request a duel.”
“… ?”
“I’m a princess! … Me, Your Highness. You misunderstood.”
I couldn’t control my expression for a moment. A frightened attendant bows down on her back, but… , Dueling is not something to be talked about carelessly.
I pretended to harden my expression.
“If it’s a misunderstanding, you’ll have to clarify.”
“… Well, the Princess always said that she respected Her Highness very much, and that she would one day want to become a famous warrior on the continent like Her Highness…”
“Sasha.”
“Keep talking.”
Anna Kroychev interrupted her in the middle, but when I urged her on, an attendant named Sasha stammered her.
“That’s why, whenever I see Her Highness at the central academy, I always want to show her the results of my training… , You told Your Highness that you wanted to be recognized as a soldier…”
“…”
“…”
Silence lingered for a while.
I’m dumbfounded, Anna Kroychev… , Seeing her blush, is it because of shame?
No, anyway.
“Are you sure you understand everything we just said?”
“I do not know.”
You understand
“The princess is good at listening, but she’s bad at talking…”
What kind of settings do you have?
Strangely, even the princess who is kind to me gives me trouble, but now she has a northern princess who can listen but can’t speak?
Is this the women’s game I knew, really?
“… What is the answer?”
“It’s embarrassing, but it can’t be helped since it was already caught.”
“No matter who hears it, it’s not like that.”
“The only people the princess is close with are Her Highness the Grand Duke and me…”
“Are you saying that the conversation is clumsy?”
“Yes…”
“It is not so.”
Anna Kroytsev spoke softly, but she wasn’t very persuasive.
*
The name of Chepes and Kroychev’s sparring attracts spectators by word of mouth, unless it is a place where outsiders are not allowed to enter.
It’s only been a day since I entered school, but I didn’t want to make a fuss already. Besides, it was already attracting attention as an ancient magic during the morning lecture.
Anna also convinced me after hearing my explanation that she didn’t want to be in the spotlight.
“Good night.”
“He says he doesn’t want others to disturb the important moment of sparring with His Highness.”
“Thank you for your understanding. Next time, I’ll try to match it at the right time, so I hope you don’t feel too heartbroken.”
“Don’t worry. The owner of the north survives even in the snowy fields.”
“He said it was okay since he had already waited for ten years to meet Your Highness.”
“Is that right, really?”
“No.”
“You’re right.”
Wouldn’t this be at the level of re-creation?
These characters are fun.
She agreed with her anyway and broke up with her.
He said he would do sparring someday, so I’ll have to set a date, but I don’t know when.
I’ll have to go back and check the time.

I stood facing Anna Kroychev in front of the professor.
We were on top of the arena that is currently being managed within the academy.
“I think it is destiny.”
“They say they think it’s fate that they met like this.”
Anna’s words matched Sasha’s translation.
Before I was moved by it, I pressed the throb between my brows.
The day after I met Anna Kroychev today.
So, I made an appointment, and the very next day, in the lecture ‘The Study of Dueling’, the first professor saw my face and all praised me, saying something about the glory that made the bards of the continent sing, and tied me and Anna Kroychev together. .
As an assistant in Dalian. I will give you an A+ grade, so I clung to it, asking if it would be okay if I did it just this once.
“Rather than lecture by an old man like me, everyone would want to see your majesty… !”
It sounds like you want to see it, not everyone. It was the face of a sasaeng fan looking at an idol…
When I can’t do this or that and I’m in trouble,
“Good night.”
Anna Kroychev accepted with a smile. Not only the professor, but this woman was also my sasaeng fan.
Eventually, I got to the top of the arena.
What the.
