Chapter 68 – Nangjungjichu(2)
“The magic you will learn today is Fireball.”
Kim cooled slightly.
Fireball is a magic that has been studied at Park Chul-soo’s magic academy.
“First, let’s find out what role each stroke of the magic circle that makes up the fire ball plays.”
The teaching method was also not very different from when I learned at the academy.
The magic circle that makes up the magic is floated with a beam projector, and each stroke that makes up the magic circle plays a role in realizing the magic.
“The diagonal stroke in the upper left corner is used to adjust the firepower. Depending on the length and thickness, the firepower changes, and the consumption of magic power decreases or increases accordingly.”
The moment the magic circle is completed, the magic is also completed.
In other words, the power, shape, size, etc. Of the magic are adjusted at the stage of drawing the magic circle, and it cannot be modified after it is completed.
But I am different.
Since magic itself is controlled by will, it can be overlaid with firepower and size on top of existing magic as much as you want.
The only downside is that modifying the completed magic consumes more magic power than the normal method?
It’s a flaw that I squeezed out honestly.
It’s not a big difference that I can’t handle, and the advantages are more obvious compared to that.
“We will finish the theoretical part here and move on to practice.”
After the hour-long explanation of the magic circle, practice time came.
“I will try to complete the magic circle based on what I have learned so far. There is no penalty for failure, so everyone can do it comfortably.”
After speaking, Professor Koh Soo-jae headed towards the entrance of the lecture hall.
To be precise, it was in the direction of the switch located on the wall.
“Then I activate the protection magic.”
Click!
When he pressed the button, a huge magic circle appeared on the ceiling and floor.
Judging from the shape of the magic circle, it seems to be the kind that raises fire magic resistance.
Safety measures are sure.
“Hmm….”
The guys, who were so hot, began to draw a magic circle in the air.
Like me, some of the guys who finished the preparations succeeded in magic at once.
The guy who made the fireball the fastest was the guy sitting in front of him who bleached his hair white.
It took about 15 seconds.
“Wow… , Completed the fireball in 15 seconds.”
“No matter what the special admissions students are, they are different.”
The whispers of other students are heard.
What is it, is he a special admissions student?
Unlike me and Im Na-eun, she seems to be the one who got a special admission in the first semester.
Professor Goh Jae-jae, who just happened to pass by, is also showing a very surprised expression.
“Excellent. The name… ?”
“I’m Yunshik Kim.”
The guy who proudly says his name.
“The casting speed, the form of magic implemented, and the firepower are all perfect. You can rest for the rest of the time.”
“Thank you professor.”
That’s why he’s secretly looking back while saying hello to the professor.
I am this kind of person, do you want to brag?
One by one, the number of students making fireballs successful in front of Professor Koh Jae-jae increased.
I was slowly starting to worry.
Should I pass it on the line that doesn’t get enough attention, or should I properly suppress these lumps of conceit filling the classroom?
Finally the professor arrived in front of us.
Im Na-eun, who was sitting next to me, skillfully performed her magic.
It took about 20 seconds.
Third place followed by 15 and 18 seconds.
As if her professor, Ko Soo-jae, was also satisfied with her teeth, she praised her with her satisfied expression.
“Okay, student Im Na-eun. She may rest.”
Hehe, thank you.”
Their eyes naturally turned towards me.
The two words ‘expectation’ are engraved in the rabbit’s clear eyes.
Ok, i’ve decided
My bunny is watching and I can’t finish it on a decent level.
Because Yoonsik is 15 seconds… , OK, let’s cut it in half and round it up to about 8 seconds.
It uses the mana within its body to arrange the mana around it.
My magic basically consists of condensation of magical power, transformation of attributes, and shaping.
Exactly, it was just a few days ago.
However, now that talent has blossomed further through traits, the two processes have been merged into one.
Now, as the mana is gathered together, the properties change at the same time.
In other words, it means that the speed of casting magic has become even faster.
I deliberately slowed down the condensation speed of magic power.
There is still a long way until the target time.
5, 6, 7….
That should be enough.
The mana of the overflowing flame is finally overlaid with form.
「Fire Ball.」
Finally, a fireball the size of Im Na-eun’s head was completed.
“…….”
The noisy classroom was enveloped in silence.
All of them are looking at us with faces stained with astonishment.
There seems to be no place in that expression for the arrogance that was filled just a moment ago.
Now you have a few faces worth seeing.
*
The class, which lasted a little over two hours, was finally over.
The students who had been sitting quietly began to approach me as soon as the class was over.
“Hello, classmate Kim Dojin! If you don’t mind, give me some advice… !”
“Oh, get out of the way! Because I came first? Student Dojin Kim! Have lunch with me!”
Faces full of learning enthusiasm.
Yes, magicians are originally beings who live with only one academic passion, so you should have that kind of expression.
Thinking that my 8-second fireball has awakened the dormant passion for learning in them, I feel proud for some reason.
But I’m sorry.
I have nothing to teach you guys.
“I’m sorry~ I already have an appointment.”
Saying that, I immediately grabbed Im Na-eun’s arm and ran out of her classroom as if running away.
Fortunately, he followed and didn’t bother me.
There are at least some manners, isn’t it?
I slowed down my hurried steps.
At that time, Im Na-eun, who was walking with her next to her, said cautiously to me.
“Here, Dojin. Some arm….”
Oh, I was still holding your arm.
“Oops, I’m sorry.”
She hurriedly let go of her arm and apologized profusely to him.
“Oh, no.”
The way I wrap my wrist with the other hand is very unnatural.
Did I hold on too hard… ?
“Does your wrist hurt by any chance?”
“Ah, I’m not that weak!”
Im Na-eun answers with a strong voice.
Now my mind is at ease
“By the way, Do-jin, you are really great. How to complete a fireball in 8 seconds… ?”
Wow, learn magic from this taste!
When a pretty girl compliments her, her self-esteem seems to skyrocket.
“Hum-hum, it’s just because the characteristics are excellent that way.”
It is said that the more ripe the rice, the more it bows its head.
She answered as humbly as possible.
“Still, that’s great! The student who was pushed to second place by you glared at you a lot earlier?”
“Okay?”
“Yeah, it looks like lasers are coming out of your eyes.”
Actually I saw it too.
If you didn’t feel it in the first place, he stared at you openly to the point of being an asshole.
Jealousy boils in both eyes, ‘You dare to show me the attention I should have… ‘!’
It’s a paraphrase, but it’s probably right.
“After using magic power, I am hungry! Let’s go eat.”
“Okay.”
We headed straight to the cafeteria.
Shin Yu-jeong praised her dry mouth that learning here is so cheap and delicious.
Whoops
Suddenly, the smartphone vibrates.
When I took it out and checked it, it was Shin Yoo-jung.
It’s scary to think, but when I saw the phone ringing, he didn’t become a nobleman either.
I answered the phone in a casual manner.
“Why.”
– Where are you?
“I’m on my way to eat with Naeun.”
-… Wait, i’m going
After saying that, the phone hung up.
“Who is it?”
“Shin Yu-jeong. I’m going to eat, so you’ll come too.”
At my answer, Im Na-eun smiled brightly and clapped her hands.
“That is great! I wanted to say thank you to Yoojung.”
“Let’s go first and wait.”
“Yes, then.”
The cafeteria was located not too far from District C.
So I walked leisurely while talking about Oh Sun-do-soon, and he arrived right away.
I was about to go straight to the restaurant, but a bus stopped in front of the building.
As soon as the door opens, Shin Yoo-jung jumps out.
Judging by the frown, it seems that there is something else he doesn’t like.
“Yoojung-ah, hello!”
“Uh… , Okay.”
When Lim Na-eun greets her brightly, Shin Yoo-jung smiles awkwardly and greets her.
Then she clings to the other side of me and pokes my side with her elbow.
“Hey… , If I hadn’t contacted you, would you have eaten with him?”
The growl in a low voice used to be like a tiger, but now it’s like a cute cat.
It feels like the trauma that was planted in my poor body has almost disappeared.
Is this really sex therapy?
… I wonder if it can even be called sex.
I answered as bluntly as possible.
“I guess so.”
I haven’t forgotten yet
The pitiful moment of sweating and making excuses because of a single text message from four years ago.
“… Are you mad at me?”
“Yes, there is.”
“What.”
Hearing the reply asking him to say something, I whispered into his ear.
“It is a secret.”
It’s not fun to say it all at once.
Shin Yoo-jung is the best when teasing her.
“This is real….”
When the irritated guy was about to say something, Im Na-eun interrupted at just the right time.
“What are you two talking about?”
I immediately shook my head.
“I didn’t say anything.”
“Okay… ? I must have heard a voice.”
“Let’s go in quickly, I’m hungry.”
“Yeah, yes.”
As she entered the restaurant as if pushing Im Na-eun’s back, she smiled at Shin Yoo-jung, who was behind her.
He follows us closely with jealous eyes.
I’ll bully you all the time you eat, Shin Yoo-jung.
