Chapter 146 – One Strike Instructor Theorard (3)
I left the lecture hall, which had become solemn, and came out.
There was something burdensome about continuing to act shamelessly, but it was because it was strange to give a normal lecture right after showing off ridiculous magic.
“Whoa…….”
When you come out, you feel out of breath. As I habitually touch the brooch around my neck as I walk down the hallway, the elf follows me.
Unlike me who couldn’t hide my embarrassment, the elf’s face was quite satisfied. The smile on his lips was innocent, but I couldn’t see the elf as cute.
‘What kind of magic did he use….’
The magic the elf just showed me was the first time I had ever seen it, even as a person who read countless scholarly books.
The swirling flames condensed to form a sphere, then exploded in an instant, and each fragment from the explosion had formidable destructive power. I couldn’t even believe it when I saw it.
What’s even more surprising is that the elves implemented that amount of magic without the slightest chanting. And that too in the blink of an eye.
‘…… She is said to be the queen who rules the Great Forest.’
If Esili’s speculation is true, isn’t Dae Su-rim really an outrageous self-respect?
Even assuming that the elf next to him was a special being in the clan, it was clear that the beings living in the great forest were dealing with magic that was far more advanced than us humans.
Just thinking about it gives me chills. It was because the tragedy that would happen the moment they changed their minds seemed to flicker before their eyes.
In my heart, I want this fact to be widely known, so that not only the empire, but all the countries on the continent will be aware of the Great Forest…….
‘There’s no way the elf would just leave it alone.’
Can not help it. Until she finds out the elf’s intentions, she has no choice but to faithfully play the role of ‘master and slave’.
It’s not too difficult these days, so there was nothing I couldn’t follow. In the past, if you didn’t sell, you would notice or threaten, but now it’s not really like that.
Even so, I couldn’t understand the magic that was just shown in the classroom. She didn’t have to clear the doubts by frightening the students.
I hesitantly opened my mouth while looking at the elf.
“By the way.”
The elf looks up at me. Her red eyes blinked calmly as she waited for the next words.
“That… Do you have magic?”
“Is it magic?”
“Okay. It was simply a matter of proving your skills, but I wondered if I had shown you so much absurd magic.”
“No. I should have shown you some outrageous magic.”
Should I have shown you? The elf let out a low sigh as I was staring at it for some reason.
“I mean Albizabe belonging to the school corps. Don’t you think it’s strange, Master?”
“Yes? What do you mean?”
“No matter how much the master is a guest lecturer, he is known externally as someone personally invited by the president of the Mage Tower. But he interrupts the class abruptly and asks offensive questions.”
He let out a blank laugh as if he was not like an elf.
“There is a high probability that he deliberately asked a question after being instigated by someone. Seeing that the professors of the Mage Tower did not stop Al-Bizabe, she is probably a person with high authority in the Mage Tower.”
“Anyone with higher authority than the professors in the Mage Tower…… Are you referring to the president?”
“I told you. Wizards are a tribe that is crazy about verification. If it is a strange species that has risen to the position of president, if the symptoms are severe, it is not less severe.”
While talking, we arrived at the elevator boarding gate before we knew it. The elf used his telekinesis to pull the elevator up to the 21st floor.
Waiting for the elevator, I said with a question.
“But there is evidence that the president is the culprit-“
“There is. I confirmed that surveillance objects were installed in the classroom. Seeing that it was installed recently, it is clear that it was to verify the master’s skills.”
“Ah. Is it.”
Ding-
The door of the elevator that reached the 21st floor opened. When I went inside with the elf, the elevator door closed by itself. The elevator, which made a small noise, starts going up.
As I was checking my clothes as usual, I stopped at a sudden thought.
‘Uh? Wait a minute. Did you confirm that the monitoring object is installed?’
Then…… Doesn’t that mean that you also know the existence of the monitoring object installed in the mansion’s room? If the Mage Tower had more than the objects in the mansion, you wouldn’t have used a lesser product.
When I think about it, goose bumps run through my body. After all, wasn’t the elf playing with me from the beginning? I looked away in a cold sweat, and the elf faced me.
“…….”
The elf, who blinked blankly a couple of times, turned his head as if he understood. Then she raised her hands and began to gather her long hair in the back.
I thought he was trying to tie his hair to her, but there was nothing like a string. I just stayed still with my hair pulled back.
Her arms of her were raised, so her armpits of her were visible, but because it was covered by her clothes of her, it looked far from lewd. You can feel the curves, but you can’t see the raw flesh, so it’s a delicate state.
Thanks to that, I couldn’t figure out the principles of the elves’ actions. After I stood firm for a while, the elf gave me a sidelong glance and pursed his lips.
“How are you?”
What do you want to hear? I saw the book I borrowed the other day and seemed to be following it diligently, but I couldn’t bear to lie.
Unsure of what to say, she remained silent. The elf, who had shrugged her shoulders, let go of his hand that was holding her hair.
“…… It’s nothing.”
Her expression was completely numb, but her pointy ears her were turning red.

An hour ago, the president’s office.
The sunlight pouring into the space on the top floor of the skyscraper is warm. Brandal, who took the abundance of sunlight for granted, tapped the desk and looked at the screen of the monitoring object.
Standing on the podium in the lecture hall, Theorad was continuing the lecture without any hesitation despite facing numerous students and professors.
“Theorad Deham…….”
A man with an unfathomable mana capacity.
However, having a large bowl did not necessarily lead to skill.
Traditionally, for a magician, skill depends on how simple the manifestation of magic is, and how much value the magic achieved has in that field.
In short, it is possible to measure skills only when magical intuition, talent, mana capacity, and theory work together.
‘If Theorad is exceptional only in terms of mana volume and theory…….’
Theorard should be considered as a scholar, not a wizard, having perfected artificial rain magic.
It is natural that a person cannot be called a wizard if he does not reach the standard of even one of the four virtues that a wizard must possess.
In addition, a thorough verification of whether it was correct that he had completed the artificial rain magic by himself would have to be done.
There weren’t many wizards in the world who could understand that a person without intuition and talent could have perfected great magic only in theory.
At the moment, even Brandal had not lost his suspicions of Theorard.
‘Let’s see….’
Blinking leisurely with his old eyes, Brandal spied on Theorard’s lecture in the chancellor’s office.
I heard that it was the first time, but Theorard was listing the theories and characteristics of magic design in an orderly and unobstructed manner, like someone who had given lectures many times.
Looking at the students’ leisurely answers to the frequently asked questions, I couldn’t see the slightest flaw. Certainly, the theory is erudite. Even though he was a competent instructor, there was no awkwardness.
Brandal, who had listened to the lecture for nearly an hour, came to the point of wondering how good Theorard was.
In response, she ordered the prepared questions to be asked to the students who had been planted in the classroom through the location notes.
– Do you think you’ll understand just because I show you my magic?
Theorard’s answer to the question was indeed arrogant. How could he say such a thing when a large number of professors called the elite among wizards were lined up?
“You’re putting self-pollination.”
Thinking he was bluffing, Brandal clicked his tongue and berated Theorard for his mistake her. In the next moment, an incredible miracle happened.
─ Whoaaaaagh!
The flames in the air of the lecture hall condensed into a circle and exploded in all directions. Brandal, who witnessed the series of processes, couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
‘This…… ?’
The raging flames change their form in an instant, and once again condense in the changed form. As the condensed fireball exploded, gravity magic was deployed just before the fragments hit the ground and living things, stopping them all.
Is that all? While containing the temperature of super high heat enough to melt a fountain pen as it is, all the temperatures that the fragments blow out were controlled.
I have no idea how many magics were deployed in an instant. What was even more surprising was that he had accomplished all of this without a wand or a chant.
─ I have no intention of blaming you for being a frog in the well.
Shocked, Brandal hurriedly came to his senses her and deployed his individuality magic, Other Heart Tong (他 心通). Because from now on, I felt the need to determine if what Theorard was saying was true or not.
─One, a frog with a lion in front of it shouldn’t talk nonsense.
It was the truth.
—The lecture ends here. Now look back on what you guys did wrong.
It was the truth.
─ Even if you cling to magic for the rest of your life, you won’t be able to keep up with your toes.
This too was true.
“Huh…….”
It was verified that all the ignorant magic that was just shown in the classroom was developed by Theorard. A person of that level would have known that surveillance objects were installed.
─Now look back at what you did wrong.
These must have been words spoken to the president who was watching him. Thinking he’d been rude, Brandal’s eyes trembled and he turned his gaze to the screen of the location notes.
[Who just heard the special lecture? No what the hell?]
[You didn’t sing, did you? No, was there a magic like that before?]
[What kind of magic is this? Is it personality magic? It’s not a joke, I’ve never seen such magic since I was born.]
[Wow, crazy. Viscount Theorard is not only excellent in theory, but his skills are also gone ?]
[No, I really don’t understand. How is that possible?]
[What is it? What happened in the special lecture?]
The Mage Tower’s wizard channel was already dominated by the story of Theorad. At the bottom of the screen, dozens of personally sent messages from faculty members were already piled up.
Brandall, who was wrapping his head, put his hand on the crystal ball on the desk. As he infused his magic power, an image was projected in the air and he illuminated the president of the society.
The president of the academic society, who was looking at the work, looked at the front as if he was wondering what was going on.
─ President Brandal? Why did he suddenly call me?
Bran Dahl, who swallowed his saliva, spoke with difficulty.
“Summon the senior wizards of the society. We have something to discuss.”
Perhaps…….
“It might be that a new archmage will be born in the empire.”
