“I think you’re mistak…”
“You did use lightning magic.”
‘Damn.’
There was no way Professor Boladi wouldn’t notice from the traces.
The professor had finished assessing the situation from the traces of the fallen monster and the faint resonance of the lightning spirit still remaining on Lee Han’s arm.
“Interesting…”
The sight of Professor Boladi nodding his head very slightly while muttering made Lee Han more afraid than most monsters would.
“Wait a minute. Wait a minute.”
Professor Garcia intervened.
Lee Han felt his heart swell at the sight.
Professor!
“Professor Bagrek. Why are you asking about lightning magic? What are you planning to do?”
“It’s necessary for teaching.”
“Teaching, what do you… wait. Student Lee Han is tak… no, taking Professor Bagrek’s class!?”
Professor Garcia had been about to say ‘that professor’ but quickly changed his words.
However, Lee Han could fully understand what he had been about to say.
“Yes…”
“…”
Professor Garcia held his forehead.
Professor Garcia was a true person of character who respected anyone at the magic school, but the same couldn’t be said for all lectures.
Some lectures by some professors made Professor Garcia’s heart uncomfortable every time he saw them.
Professor Voladi Bagrec’s lecture was one of those lectures.
In Professor Garcia’s view, it was an excessively harsh and severe lecture!
No matter how he thought about it, it wasn’t a lecture suitable for new students to learn.
It would be one thing to teach methods of avoiding fights, but teaching new students magic combat techniques for maintaining composure and fighting in extreme combat situations…
The one fortunate thing was that students didn’t attend that lecture.
Because it was so difficult, every year students would come to listen once and then all run away.
So Professor Garcia had been reassured, thinking ‘Someday Professor Bagrek will realize and change his lecture, right?’
But surprisingly, there was a student attending it.
Professor Boladi spoke as if asking why that was strange.
“I believe you saw it before.”
“Saw what?”
“The fight with the anti-magic extremists. I said I had taught him then.”
“…!”
Professor Garcia felt like lightning flashed in his head.
The iron balls Lee Han had used.
At that time, he had been too distracted by the Imperial Anti-Mages to think deeply about the method of handling those iron balls…
…Come to think of it, that was Professor Boladi’s method!
-He has talent for magical combat. Professor Boladi, did you teach him? Remarkable.
-He has talent for magical combat. Professor Boladi, did you teach him? Remarkable.
-He has talent for magical combat. Professor Boladi, did you teach him? Remarkable.
-Not particularly remarkable.
Come to think of it, the conversation between the Principal and Professor Boladi afterward had been very meaningful too.
He had thought it was just some casual teaching by chance, but he had been receiving intensive instruction in lectures!
“Are you okay????”
“…”
Lee Han hesitated at Professor Garcia’s question.
It was an ‘are you okay’ that contained far too many meanings.
What should he answer?
“He’s fine.”
“…”
Professor Boladi answered instead. Both Lee Han and Professor Garcia looked at Professor Boladi with bewildered expressions.
“Wardanaz is successfully following the teachings.”
“…Following them?”
Professor Garcia was first shocked, then understood.
Sometimes exceptional talent could be poison.
That saying applied to the current situation as well.
Lee Han’s exceptional talent had made him not give up on the class and keep following along!
‘What a tragedy…!’
Professor Boladi spoke as kindly as he could in his own way.
“I trust you now understand why I confirmed the manifestation of lightning magic.”
“Wait, wait a minute. I understand that he’s following along.”
Professor Garcia attempted a last resistance. It was true goodness.
“But right now, just because his control of lower telekinesis spells has improved quite a bit, isn’t it too hasty to immediately move on to lightning elemental magic? At least learn other safe elemental magic first…”
Professor Garcia, who had been speaking, stopped with a terrified expression.
Professor Boladi was smiling very faintly.
What???
“That’s why I had him learn water elemental magic first.”
“…Already?”
“That’s right.”
Professor Boladi’s “That’s right” contained very faint confidence.
Professor Garcia could feel that emotion as a fellow professor.
-Seeing that there’s a student following along, I wasn’t teaching wrong after all.
…was the confidence.
‘No!!’
Professor Garcia screamed inwardly. Why of all times!
Even if Professor Boladi’s distorted world could be changed later, he had to protect the excellent disciple before his eyes first.
Professor Garcia didn’t give up and said.
“Actually, quite a few students easily manage to bestow form on water, don’t they?”
‘Was that the case?’
Lee Han, unaware of Professor Garcia’s inner thoughts, was surprised.
No wonder…
“I suppose it’s because of the characteristics of the element called water?”
“I don’t particularly think that’s the case…”
“From that perspective, rather than moving to the next stage simply because he succeeded in form bestowal, shouldn’t he become more familiar with the element by expanding the range in other forms?”
Professor Boladi nodded.
“That’s why I also had him realize water shield magic on his own.”
“…”
Professor Garcia looked at Lee Han with shocked eyes. Lee Han somehow felt sorry.
If he hadn’t simply learned water shield magic but realized it on his own, it was almost the same as mastering elemental form bestowal.
If he had pondered and realized the principles and logic on his own, he could create any number of other forms.
Realizing it on one’s own was that important.
“But, but… even if he’s mastered form bestowal, the path of elemental control is vast… At minimum, he should be able to naturally control water elemental magic with bestowed form like controlling iron balls…”
Professor Garcia, who had been speaking, felt his heart sink as he saw Lee Han hang his head low.
Don’t tell me?
“I’ve made him learn what you just mentioned. Since he was trying to add rotational properties as well, I stopped him.”
Professor Garcia had never imagined, even in her worst nightmares, that Professor Boladi would say something like ‘This is how much I care about my students.’
This was more terrifying than any nightmare.
And the most terrifying thing was that Professor Garcia no longer had any way left to persuade him.
Professor Garcia spoke sadly with a dejected voice.
“…Please take good care of student Lee Han…”
“I will always teach consistently as I always have, Professor Garcia.”
When the conversation between the two professors ended, Lee Han also came back to his senses.
“…?!!”
That’s it?
You’re not going to stop him anymore??
“Professor…!”
“Student Lee Han. Work hard.”
Lee Han suddenly felt like a cow being dragged to the slaughterhouse.
He didn’t know what would happen next week, but…
It felt ominous!
‘…From now on, when asking professors for help, I should tell him to check if there are other professors around…’

Asan walked toward the black market with his friends.
“Let’s treat them well this weekend.”
‘Do we really have to?’
Gainando wanted to complain but had to keep his mouth shut. He had already complained once and received consecutive scoldings for it.
The current food situation of the magic school new students was roughly as follows:
Blue Dragon Tower, which could eat the most luxuriously and abundantly thanks to Lee Han who had secured large quantities of supplies from outside.
Phoenix Tower, which quietly accepted whatever meals were served without any intention of complaining from the beginning.
White Tiger Tower, which was aggressively roaming the nearby forests, fields, and mountains with weapons in hand, gradually succeeding in hunting.
And Black Turtle Tower, which was supplementing their insufficient food through periodic gathering, occasional hunting, and bartering with other students.
Among these, the Blue Dragon Tower students knew very well that they were absolutely dependent on Lee Han’s help.
Although Lee Han had considerately told them not to worry and that they just needed to contribute small amounts, they couldn’t just sit still.
The Blue Dragon Tower students were also looking for food through various methods.
One of those methods was the black market they were heading to now.
A bartering place that the Black Turtle Tower students had set up near their tower!
“When we went last time, there wasn’t much to eat…”
“No. I went a few days ago too and the goods had increased dramatically. There was quite a bit of food too.”
“I heard they traded with the White Tiger Tower kids?”
Asan nodded at his friends’ words.
“As time passes, the market will inevitably have more goods. I’m not going for nothing. And…”
Asan carefully took out glass bottles from inside his clothes.
These were the spoils obtained from conquering the dungeon called Thunder Step Laboratory this time.
All the students who participated had divided the potions and reagents among themselves.
“…The Black Turtle Tower guys will also know how precious these are right now. It’s better to exchange the extras now, before they become less valuable later.”
“As expected of Dalcard!”
The Blue Dragon Tower students headed to the black market with bright smiles.
The Black Turtle Tower student standing at the entrance of the black market seemed to recognize them, as his expression changed.
“Nice to see you. Is it okay if we go in?”
“So… Sorry.”
“??”
“There’s a new rule. You guys can’t come in.”
Asan felt more bewildered than surprised.
“You’re only going to trade among yourselves? The market will shrink!”
“That’s fine with us.”
With a heavy, low voice, someone appeared from behind the Black Turtle Tower student.
He had a short stature like a dwarf, but a more muscular body than even the White Tiger Tower students.
It was to the extent that even loose outerwear couldn’t hide it.
‘A dwar… wait, that’s not right?’
Asan was confused. He thought it was a dwarf, but looking closely, it was an elf.
A short and very muscular elf!
“I am Salkoda of the Tutanta Family.”
The Tutanta Family.
It was a quite famous stonemason guild family even in the Empire.
He knew it as a family of excellent dwarf craftsmen, but…?
“Tutanta. Why are you blocking our entry? Because we’re from Blue Dragon Tower?”
“No. Of course, it’s true that I don’t like you Blue Dragon Tower students, but…”
“…”
“…”
“…I don’t put my personal feelings into such rules. The reason you can’t come in is because of the rules.”
“What kind of rule?”
“You can’t bring in anything that wasn’t obtained through direct work!”
Black Turtle Tower students gathered behind Salko.
They were all different, from rough-looking guys to well-raised kids, but you could tell that Salko had leadership.
Asan took out the reagents he had brought and got angry.
“What we brought now was also obtained through work!”
“Really? Where did you get it from?”
“…”
Asan became speechless. He couldn’t say it was from Professor Thunderstep’s laboratory.
Gainando made excuses instead.
“We dug it up outside!”
“You dug up that amount in the fields and could collect that much by now? You must have stolen it. If you can’t state the source, I’ll judge it as stolen goods. And as long as I’m in Black Turtle Tower, I won’t allow stolen goods to be handled in the market. That would not only dirty people’s sweat and effort, but also disrupt the market.”
“You gathered that much from the fields just now? You must have stolen it. If you can’t provide proof of origin, I’ll consider it stolen goods. And as long as I’m at the Tower of the Black Turtle, I won’t allow stolen goods to be traded in the market. It not only dishonors people’s sweat and hard work, but also disrupts the market.”
“You gathered that much from the fields just now? It must be stolen. If you can’t provide proof of origin, I’ll consider it stolen goods. And as long as I’m at the Tower of the Black Turtle, I won’t allow stolen goods to be traded in the market. It not only dishonors people’s sweat and effort, but also disrupts the market.”

And as long as I’m in the Black Turtle’s Tower, I won’t allow stolen goods to be traded in the market. It not only dishonors people’s sweat and effort, but also disrupts the market.”
The students of the Blue Dragon Tower were left speechless by his undeniably accurate words.
Gainando cried out as if he had been wronged.
“But then where are we supposed to trade stolen goods! What are thieves supposed to eat and live on!”
“Hey… Gainando… keep your voice down, it’s embarrassing…!”
The students of the Blue Dragon Tower realized their shame and silenced Gainando.
Just then, Ihan appeared carrying a basket.
Ihan was puzzled to see his friends gathered at the entrance.
“What are you doing? Aren’t you going in?”
“Ihan!”
Asan confessed everything that had happened in detail.
Ihan listened and then asked Salko.
“I grew this myself in my garden, so would it be okay to bring it in?”
Salko looked at Ihan with surprised eyes. Then he nodded his head.
“See you later then.”
Seeing Lee Han entering, the Blue Dragon Tower friends belatedly came to their senses.
“?!?”
