Fortunately, Professor Milay did not send Lee Han away.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Two thick books appeared in the air. They were so thick they could have been used as weapons.
The cover of the well-bound book read 【Theoretical Foundations and Cases of Summoning Magic】.
“Both of you, sit down.”
Professor Milay was someone who possessed a stern gaze that could make people nervous without wielding a sword or waving a staff.
Gainando also sat down with a slightly frightened expression.
“Professor. Where are the other friends?”
“They received their lessons, took their assignments, and went back.”
“Ah… assignments?”
Gainando raised his head.
Adding assignments in the current situation was an enormous burden. Gainando attempted a timid rebellion.
“Professor. Dark magic doesn’t have assignments…”
Professor Milay stared directly at Gainando. Under that gaze, Gainando was completely subdued.
‘Could it be that her gaze has a petrification effect?’
With so many strange professors around, he couldn’t help but have such suspicions.
“Both of you, open your books.”
The two obediently opened their books. Gainando swayed as if getting dizzy from the densely written text.
“Read, transcribe, and solve the problems.”
Lee Han looked at the book.
【Chapter 1. On Inanimate Object Summoning】
-Inanimate object summoning, which can be called the most basic and core aspect of summoning magic, is a part that must be learned and mastered even by summoners who are only interested in other fields of summoning. The great summoner Boltzmann composed educational and efficient magic circles for future generations, and since then, memorizing these magic circles has become fundamental in summoning magic. So young summoner, be grateful and strive forward. Memorizing Boltzmann’s basic magic circles and understanding their principles will guarantee remarkable achievements in summoning magic…
(Magic Circle No. 1)
(Magic Circle No. 2)
(Magic Circle No. 3)
(Magic Circle No. 4)
…
…
-Young summoner. Now that you’ve learned interesting knowledge, it’s time to apply that knowledge in a more interesting way. Try to answer the following riddle.
Novice summoner Chersu was traveling through the cold Northern Region when an accident separated him from his companions, leaving him alone. Unfortunately, someone stole Chersu’s cargo containing thick clothing, and fierce winds tore his current clothes to shreds. What summoning magic circle can Chersu use as quickly as possible to avoid freezing to death?

‘Summoning magic circles are fine, but shouldn’t we find the culprit first?’
Aside from the somewhat absurd and contrived problems, the textbook was excellent.
Having seen enough complex and difficult specialized books to be sick of them, Lee Han could tell how good this book was.
Not all textbooks were considerate.
Some books were kindly considerate of the reader’s level, while others seemed to say ‘I’m not trying to teach you, I just want to make you waste time meaninglessly.’
And usually, specialized books fell into the latter category.
…The professors here were also closer to the latter if you really had to categorize them…
However, the book Professor Milay gave was excellent.
If you read slowly and concentrated, you could easily memorize and understand the basic magic circle compositions frequently used in summoning magic.
This alone made Lee Han rate Professor Milay highly.
‘She was actually a good person.’
She had chosen the most educationally suitable book from among countless magic books for her students.
It was the mindset of a true educator, incomparable to other professors.
‘Thank you, Professor.’
Professor Milay was slightly flustered by the moved gaze Lee Han was sending her.
‘??’
There were two reasons why Professor Milay didn’t teach summoning magic from the beginning.
First, summoning magic was prone to accidents without abundant knowledge and preparation. Even simple inanimate object summoning could sufficiently injure the caster.
Second, she hoped students wouldn’t act recklessly.
If she taught summoning magic immediately to new students already full of pride and self-esteem, they could cause accidents with their hot blood and arrogance.
Just make them study.
Until it was so difficult and boring that the students’ bodies twisted and contorted.
That was Professor Milay’s philosophy.
If they couldn’t endure and gave up summoning magic along the way, that was actually better. It was better for such students not to learn summoning magic.
‘But…?’
Professor Milay was surprised to see Lee Han silently copying the book and solving problems without a single complaint.
She had thought he would be the most arrogant, given that he had shown the most outstanding talent among the students.
Other students would start yawning, fidgeting, glancing outside, and trying to escape after just a little while…
Surprisingly, Lee Han didn’t move a muscle from his posture. Like a statue, he sat steadfastly with only his quill pen scratching.
“Lee Han.”
“What?”
“I need to use the bathroom.”
“Trying to escape?”
“Wh… What?? What? No! N-no!”
Gainando vehemently denied it. Lee Han, who had asked without much thought, became convinced thanks to this.
‘This guy was trying to escape.’
When they first arrived, Lee Han had wondered if Gainando might switch from dark magic to summoning magic.
But seeing him now, it seemed like he didn’t need to worry about that.
I miss Professor Mortum…
”
I miss Professor Mortum…
“
I miss Professor Mortum…
Gainando, who had returned from the bathroom, was muttering like a madman.
* * *
Gainando’s expectation that ‘if I study this hard, she’ll at least let me try something, right?’ was mercilessly shattered.
Professor Milay only made them study until the very end.
Lee Han nodded with a satisfied expression.
‘There should be classes like this too.’
Having attended so many tumultuous lectures, this kind of quality theoretical study felt sweet.
Gainando got up and whispered.
“Hey. Do you understand this content??”
“Isn’t it quite substantial? It’s also fun.”
“…?????!!”
Gainando stared at him with an even more shocked expression than when Lee Han had subdued Raphadael earlier.
He’s really gone crazy!
“That’s all for today. Please read and study this material by next week.”
Professor Milay put away her book and pulled out a thick bundle of papers. Gainando received it with a respectful expression.
‘He won’t come.’
‘He won’t come.’
Lee Han and Professor Milay simultaneously sensed Gainando’s future.
It was obvious he wouldn’t show up starting next week!
“I’ll see you next week.”
Lee Han bowed politely.
While it was true that he needed to maintain good relationships with all professors, he had to be especially friendly with those who were people of character.
They might help him later when Lee Han got dragged to the punishment room.
“I apologize for misjudging you. Student Lee Han.”
“Excuse me?”
“Well then, let’s meet next week.”
Professor Milay smiled very faintly.
However, from Lee Han’s perspective, who didn’t understand the context, it was a statement that allowed for countless interpretations.
‘What??’
As the door to the Spirit Ritual Hall closed, Lee Han was bewildered.
What did she misjudge??
‘Did she perhaps discuss my future with Professor Mortum? She didn’t say she’d make me focus only on dark magic, did she? Surely not with the Skeleton Principal…’
In the end, Lee Han agonized until he fell asleep that night.
* * *
While the students grew more haggard by the day, the Skeleton Principal seemed to have increasingly bright gleams in his eye sockets.
The Skeleton Principal who entered the 【Basic Magic Character Education】 lecture hall greeted them with a cheerful voice.
Are you all having a happy week?
Are you all having a happy week?
Are you all having a happy week?
“…”
“…”
If it had been the first week, there might have been a few students who would have answered out of courtesy, but all students from the four towers remained silent.
The Skeleton Principal didn’t care and rattled his skull bones. Then the students’ necks were forced to nod up and down.
Except for Lee Han.
“…”
Lee Han looked around and hastily nodded his head. The Skeleton Principal looked at Lee Han as if dumbfounded.
‘He’s copying that too…’
Looking at that Wardanaz Family Boy reminded him of a lion wearing sheep’s clothing, trying to befriend the sheep.
If he could withstand the Skeleton Principal’s mana alone, he should be standing proudly and arrogantly with his chest out, so what kind of behavior was this.
Now. It’s time for character education for you young novice mages. You remember the assignment I gave last week, don’t you?

The students nodded their heads.
Who could possibly forget.
-Students from each tower must bring the flag hanging in the freshman lounge of the tower I designate by next class. It’s a flag with an emblem carved on it!

The Skeleton Principal’s assignment.
It was an assignment to bring back a flag from another tower.
No matter how generous one was, it was an assignment that had nothing to do with character, but the Skeleton Principal was confident.
Now, let’s check starting with Black Turtle Tower? Did you obtain the Phoenix Tower flag?

Now, let’s check starting with Black Turtle Tower? Did you obtain the Phoenix Tower flag?
“Yes. We…”
The Black Turtle Tower students carefully tried to take out the flag they had brought.
It was a flag they had exchanged with the Phoenix Tower students.
Yes, you brought it. Well done.
Yes, you brought it. Well done.
Yes, you brought it. Well done.
“…”
“…”
The Skeleton Principal made a blatantly uninterested expression.
Since he already knew they had exchanged with each other, he wasn’t particularly interested.
Phoenix Tower also took care of it well, I suppose?

“Yes.”
Good. Now…
Good. Now…
Good. Now…
The Skeleton Principal floated and flew to the White Tiger Tower students with the joy of someone whose long-awaited meal had finally arrived.
My honorable students from knight families! You naturally brought the Blue Dragon Tower flag too, right?? Hm??

“…”
“…”
The Tiger Tower students’ faces flushed with humiliation and shame.
Even Lee Han, who usually didn’t care what others thought, felt a bit uncomfortable with the current situation.
‘The back of my head is tingling quite a bit.’
The White Tiger Tower students were glaring at Lee Han with resentful gazes.
Why aren’t you taking it out?! Huh?! Why?! Don’t tell me you couldn’t bring it?!
Why aren’t you taking it out?! Huh?! Why?! Don’t tell me you couldn’t bring it?!
Why aren’t you taking it out?! Huh?! Why?! Don’t tell me you couldn’t bring it?!
‘Cut it out…’
Lee Han prayed that the Skeleton Principal would please stop his nonsense. Of course, the Skeleton Principal didn’t stop.
The Skeleton Principal, who had been chattering excitedly, changed the topic as if he had enjoyed himself enough.
As I said before, this lecture isn’t about fighting each other. The purpose of this lecture is to get to know each other, become friends, and achieve harmony.

None of the students believed him.
It seems you’re misunderstanding my intentions, which is unfortunate. In that spirit, I’ll make the next assignment easier to understand.

Lee Han became anxious.
What more was he planning to do?
If you go straight west from the main building, there’s a lake. Some of you might have seen it.

“…”
“…That was a lake?”
Students who had seen it while taking walks around the area said in bewilderment.
Because…
“I thought it was the sea.”
“Why would there be a sea inside the school?!”
“I, I just thought this school might have a sea.”
…It was a ridiculously large lake.
Just as there were deep and treacherous mountain ranges whose ends were difficult to grasp, this magic school also had a lake.
There’s an island on that lake. I’ve hidden an outing pass there.

“!”
“!!!”
The students’ eyes instantly gleamed like starving beasts.
Work together and bring it to me.
Work together and bring it to me.
Work together and bring it to me.
“Yes, sir!”
It was the most enthusiastic response that had come out so far.
Oh. Phoenix Tower students should move together with Black Turtle Tower students, and Blue Dragon Tower students should move together with White Tiger Tower students. You’re free not to listen like in the last assignment, but…

The Skeleton Principal grinned wickedly.
I guarantee you’ll never be able to pass if you do that.
I guarantee you’ll never be able to pass if you do that.
I guarantee you’ll never be able to pass if you do that.
Blue Dragon Tower Students and White Tiger Tower Students looked at each other and frowned.
Everyone was thinking the same thing.
‘Together with these bastards? That’s what they’re thinking.’
