Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Chapter 886



Episode 886

But Jo Woo-rin did not express his thoughts out loud. Although it was a short period of time, my social skills improved rapidly while I was staying at Einrogard.

Maybe it was because of the intuition that the dragon race was born with.

Jo Woo-rin decided that if he said what he was thinking, even the kindest Lee Han might get angry and kick him out of the lounge.

‘Since Jo Woo-rin is smart, we should wait quietly.’

Jo Woo-rin, pleased with his own decision, waited patiently.

* * *

“majesty. “You have to walk while looking ahead.”

Yes.

“majesty. “Walk while looking ahead.”

Ugh.

“……”

Lee Han used telekinesis magic to confiscate the out-of-print rare Toberiz book that Jo Woo-rin was holding.

Jo Woo-rin screamed and tried to roll left and right, but Lee Han coldly ignored him.

In any case, even if the hallways and walls of Einrogard are broken, it is Principal Skeleton’s job to fix them, not Lee Han’s.

When Lee Han did not return the book even after several minutes of rolling, Jo Woo-rin became depressed and followed him quietly.

“I’ll give it to you later when we return to the break room. Or you can just read it in the break room now.”

no. It’s more fun to follow Lee Han.

“haha. “I can tell you that the lecture is interesting. You seem to be magically promising.”

It wasn’t really a story about a lecture…

Jo Woo-rin was about to say that Lee Han’s experiences were more interesting than the lecture, but he stopped again.

Just as I had intuited earlier, even now, I felt a sense of crisis that if I spoke out loud, I might end up back in the break room.

Jo Woo-rin suddenly felt proud that he had grown so much.

“What exactly is the story about the river?”

Oh no. Well… I wonder what lecture Lee Han is going to take now!

“It’s a [Wizard’s Life with Plants] lecture, but I’m not exactly going to listen to the lecture.”

At Lee Han’s words, Jo Woo-rin tilted his head once, then realized it too late and shouted.

aha!

“As expected, Your Highness. “You figured it out right away.”

Are you going to help the professor prepare the midterm exam?

“…No…”

Lee Han was concerned that Jo Woo-rin had experienced only unusual cases and had the wrong common sense about Einroguard.

Unusual things happened due to a combination of bad luck, and Einrogard was a little different from usual.

‘…is not it? ‘Has it always been like this?’

“I don’t usually create tests. “You said earlier that music magic is an exception.”

But obviously other professors…

“Wow. “I feel like I’m going to faint because I’m so sad that Your Majesty doesn’t believe in me…”

Oh no! Jo Woo-rin believes in Lee Han! Sorry! Don’t fall!

“thank you.”

……

As soon as Lee Han recovered, Jo Woo-rin looked at him with a bit of suspicion.

Could it be that Lee Han is deceiving Jo Woo-rin?

‘Oh no. That can’t be possible.’

Jo Woo-rin shook his head. There is no way a good wizard like Lee Han would cheat.

“The reason I’m going now is to take care of the plants. “Due to the nature of the lectures, it requires a lot of work even during break times.”

Most of the students at Einrogard were busy.

Even if you don’t fill up most of your time with lectures like Lee Han, you don’t have much time to leisurely play.

This was especially true as I had to study and prepare in my spare time even if I did not attend lectures.

In particular, the goal of this semester’s [Wizard’s Life with Plants] lecture is to grow mandragora.

It was a goal that required a lot of effort and attention.

aha.

Only then did Jo Woo-rin fully understand the truth.

“Now you know. majesty?”

Yes.

Although he was convinced, a new question arose in Jo Woo-rin’s mind: ‘When will Lee Han take a break?’

Meanwhile, Lee Han arrived at the greenhouse on the 6th floor.

Jo Woo-rin, who was leisurely inhaling the warm moisture coming from inside, was puzzled when Lee Han did not enter.

Instead of going in, Lee Han looked around and knocked on the empty classroom door next to him.

-Who are you?

“He is a person who knows the true value of Mandragora.”

– Wardanazgun. come in.

Bartrek and Ratford, who were waiting in the empty classroom next to him, welcomed Lee Han.

Jo Woo-rin became even more confused and closed his eyes.

Weren’t you here to take care of the Mandragora in the greenhouse?

“What happened? “What is the pattern?”

“It’s half finished. As expected, the snowflake pattern was difficult.”

“What nonsense…! “You took such expensive reagents!”

When Lee Han seemed angry, Batrek quickly made an excuse.

“Oh, I can’t help it. I’m still in my second year. Wodanaz.”

“Don’t make excuses. Batrek! “Buyers don’t care about our grade level!”

“I. Wardanaz. “I have one question.”

Ratford, who was listening from the side, raised his hand and asked.

“what?”

“…Are you sure your highness can hear it?”

Only then did Vatrek realize that a large dragon was staring at him outside the door.

Bartrek whispered in horror.

“hey! What if I bring your highness with me!”

“I’m bringing Gainando with me, so there’s no reason why I can’t tell you to tell Jouri, right?”

“Are you and Kainando the same as Your Majesty?”

Batrek got angry as if asking what he was talking about.

The three of us here were students who had gathered from the beginning of the lecture with a different goal than others.

-Apart from the medicinal properties of mandragora, if the leaves have rare patterns, they are sold at a high price. There are lovers…

-Are you saying that during the lecture on raising mandragora, you make separate patterns on the leaves and sell them at a high price?

-It’s kind of like that, isn’t it?

-no. Let’s do it now!

All wizards had to be able to pursue utility.

If you can get both lecture grades and gold, wouldn’t you be a true wizard?

Therefore, Lee Han and his friends took on the challenge of growing mandragora and carving patterns on its leaves.

“Quiet. “His Majesty Jo Woo-rin is not the person to go and report somewhere.”

“i get it. Wardanaz. Let me believe you. … But Wodanaz.”

“why?”

“…Isn’t the person behind your highness a professor??”

Batrek, who was trying to understand, was shocked to find Professor Boladi standing expressionlessly behind Jo Woo-rin.

Even with the royal family visiting from outside, the professor really couldn’t just ignore it.

“under. Batrek. Are you deliberately changing the story? To avoid responsibility for failure? “Are you still a member of White Tiger Tower?”

“Oh no… this is… a fair point…”

“Professor Bagrek is not the kind of person who will go and report anything, so don’t worry.”

‘Isn’t this crazy guy, really?’

Batrek shuddered inwardly.

I knew that the boy from the Wardanaz family had a level of madness that was different from that of ordinary students, but the madness shown today was overwhelming.

You take Professor Boladi around and say things like, ‘Our professor is fine.’

“…i get it. okay. “Maybe Professor Willow will hear the rumor later and take the leaves!”

“I don’t think that’s the problem now. Isn’t the problem that the leaf is only half-finished even after pouring so much reagent into it? “I used almost a whole box of wedding invitation stones in the early days of Buddhism…”

“Ugh.”

Batrek had nothing to say, so he lowered his head and averted his gaze.

Whether you are an alchemist or an enchantment wizard, if you receive budget and support but fail to produce results, you will have a similar attitude.

Although Bartreck himself did not notice, it was a posture that his seniors and professors had practiced countless times.

“after. I can’t help it. Batrek. I have no choice but to do my best during the remaining time. “Let’s go in and take care of Mandragora first.”

“i get it. Sorry again. Wodanaz.”

“Finish the pattern while it’s time to apologize.”

“……”

Batrek grumbled inwardly.

‘Ah-oh. Next time, I’ll definitely have to find the reagent.’

This thought was also the same as that of many senior alchemists.

As the conversation ended, Jo Woo-rin, who was watching, opened his mouth.

Jo Woo-rin has a question.

“What are you curious about?”

Is it because of the gold coins that you want to make leaf patterns?

“That’s not necessarily true…”

“Some people like plants…”

Bartrek and Ratford instinctively made excuses.

The two tried to change their minds somehow before admitting it.

“Yes…”

“To save some gold coins…”

Lee Han-do?

“You could say that there are quite a few aspects like that.”

Lee Han proudly admitted. Jo Woo-rin asked, resting his chin on his front paw.

Can’t I take the gold coins from Jo Woo-rin’s warehouse?

“…!!”

The three students’ eyes widened as if they had been struck by lightning.

Batrek shouted without realizing it.

“Are you saying that Your Highness is sponsoring my alchemy?”

no. Jo Woo-rin was only talking about Lee Han…

Jo Woo-rin answered in a shy voice. Bartrek was equally embarrassed.

“ah. sorry.”

“…no. it’s okay. majesty. “We can earn it on our own.”

Bartrek was slightly impressed by his friend’s specifications.

‘Wardanaz guy. At times like this, you must be from a great noble family.’

Batrek was also proud of being from a knightly family, but he was tempted by the offer to retrieve the dragon’s treasure.

That’s why the dragon’s wealth was widely rumored.

But Wardanaz, honorably, resolutely rejected the offer.

If you receive that, wouldn’t it be considered that you were doing it for profit by treating the visiting royal family as guests from outside?

“Wardanaz. I respect you. “I was honestly shaken.”

Patting his shoulder, Bartrek looked at his friend. And just like that, I flinched.

Lee Han was looking at Batrek with a murderous gaze.

“…Be sure to complete the pattern within this semester. Do you understand?”

“…I understand…”

* * *

“Makin. “Don’t you think Bark is taking good care of you today?”

Sianna tilted her head at the sight of Batrek tending to the Mandragora sapling while sweating profusely.

Of course, the Bark family has a reputation for alchemy among the eastern dwarf families, so it was natural for Bartrek to work hard, but today was especially special…

“Isn’t it because next week is the exam?”

“It feels more desperate than that…?”

“there. “Magic aphids appeared.”

“oh. thank you.”

Sianna sprayed diluted poison to catch the magic aphids.

Looking around, I saw that the students were very diverse as they were about to take their midterm exams.

First of all, students who usually worked hard to manage Mandragora, like Siana and Yoner, were relatively relaxed.

Catching bugs that happened to appear and refilling the water that was lacking…

In comparison, most of the students who were lazy were bustling. There was a fuss belatedly trying to fill in the areas that the bugs had eaten or to drive the bugs out.

And there were some students who were quite relaxed. These were students who were not relaxed because they were confident, but who ruined things early and boldly sold the saplings to their seniors.

“Hehe… Just go to the punishment room and that’s it.”

“Quiet. “Because it’s embarrassing.”

If you ask me, Bartrek falls into the first category, so why is he so desperate?

I couldn’t figure out why.

Meanwhile, students in the second category slowly approached Lee Han.

“Wardanaz. please!”

“I can’t hear you.”

“You must lead us! “With the same skills you showed in first grade!”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. “If other people hear it, they will misunderstand it.”

???

Jo Woo-rin was amazed to see the students chasing Lee Han.

Makein Makein. I have a question.

“What are you curious about?”

What are those wizards asking from Lee Han?

“ah.”

Yoner explained with a chuckle.

Those were students who had been there since the beginning of the semester.

Growing a mandragora requires water, attention, and sunlight.

If we could artificially give Mandragora the power that the sun emits, it would be possible to dramatically accelerate its growth.

-I heard there is an artificial solar artifact in the principal’s warehouse. Wouldn’t it be perfect if I just steal it?

…The students who made this decision were trying to somehow attract Lee Han.

Of course, Lee Han was completely ignoring it. There was no reason to take such a gamble when I was already taking good care of raising it.

If I had that, wouldn’t Lee Han’s mandragago grow much better?

“I guess so?”

Jo Woo-rin took one look at the sapling that Lee Han was growing, opened his mouth wide, and then narrowed his eyes and glared at the surrounding space.

As if measuring the interval at which the breath can be safely fired.

Makin is really kind!

“…yes? Why suddenly?”

I’d like to ask one more question. Are there ever times when no one is here in the greenhouse?

“There is, but…?”

Yoner felt a strange sense of discomfort.

When a member of the royal family suddenly gives a compliment, they usually have an ulterior motive.
