Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Chapter 64



Chapter 064

“It looks like they’ve chosen everything.”

Lee Han completed a frantic purchase.

Lee Han’s purchases did not end with going to grocery stores and clothing stores.

A stationery store and a bookstore (full of cheap, sturdy papers! Are there any fantasy magic books that can fool the professor’s eyes?) Agricultural stores (where are edible seeds and seedlings?) and so on.

Employees were amazed.

‘I really won’t die of starvation even if I fall on a deserted island!’

“Where is the stable?”

“A stable… you mean?”

Aryan was puzzled.

Like I said before, you can’t drag a vehicle near the school.

But Aryan didn’t ask anymore.

It was clear that this young master of the Wodanaz family had something on his mind.

* * *

The Amur Stables were crowded with people coming and going.

Thanks to that, the owner of the stable, Amour, was busy without even opening his eyes.

He counseled a group of adventurers who came to buy a new mount, and opened a space specializing in flying mounts on top of the tower in a hurry because of a customer who came to entrust the lightning eagle

… and ability did not work.

As well as the ability to handle horses, he had to know how to handle most of the various mounts seen in the empire.

After such a barely busy time, an unusual guest came.

‘Are you a magic school student?’

“hello.”

“Hello. What are you looking for?”

“Are there any of you who go straight to school from here?”

“!”

Amour was surprised.

In fact, what the student said was right.

The magic school located on the side of the mountain range was feared, but it did not have guests from outside.

There were also merchants who had contracts with magic schools who came to supply supplies constantly, and adventurers who came after solving the requests made by wizards.

However, to those who knew the situation well, the main gate of the magic school was notorious.

There was even a saying, ‘You die of old age while trying to pass through’…

So people in a hurry went underground or flew to the sky. It was relatively easy to get through as long as your identity was confirmed.

“Right. Why do you ask?”

“I’ll pay, so can you get me out on the date?”

“…!”

There was only one reason Lee Han came here.

‘We have to prepare the next escape method.’

It was tenacity that even the skeleton headmaster could admire.

A student who earnestly prepares for the next escape method instead of going around town and eating dessert on a nice day with an outing pass.

And such a blazing sincerity was conveyed to Amour.

‘amazing!’

Amur looked at Lee Han with shocked eyes.

Everyone knew about the rumors of the magic school.

It is said to be a place of harsh education to the extent that students try to escape.

But to think that a young magic school student came out like this and came up with a bold plan.

Among the tribes living in the toughest lands of the Empire, not many boys had this kind of talk.

‘I want to help.’

Amour wanted to help Lee Han as much as he admired Lee Han’s guts.

But there was a problem.

“That’s… hard.”

“May I ask why?”

“I’ve been to a magic academy with guests a few times, but the academy’s identity verification is extremely thorough.”

Compared to the front door, it was easy, but empty was not so easy.

The guests who flew through the sky and approached the magic school had to stop at the designated location.

When the signal was sent, a person from the magic school flew in to verify the identity.

If the person who made an appointment in advance is correct, they will be let in.

“But since you said you’ve been in before… can’t you come in with a good reason?”

“Right. Getting in is not a problem. But when it comes out, it’s a problem. The school checks the number of students even when they leave.”

“…!”

When Amour came in on a flying eagle, he made sure that Amur was riding alone on top of the eagle when leaving.

It was close to impossible to deceive them as they used various magics to make sure no one was hiding.

Lee Han’s expression darkened after hearing the explanation.

‘shit. Should I go this far?’

The motto of the magic school seemed to have to be changed to ‘should we go this far’ at this point.

“But it is not that there is no way.”

Amour put a thick cigar in his mouth and lit it.

“What method?”

“Get an ownerless mount from inside. When I come, you can ride the mount you got inside and fly after me.”

“…?”

Lee Han did not understand.

If you check when you go out anyway, won’t you get caught?

“I’ll check anyway, but won’t it catch on?”

“That is a bit different. I also found out about it by chance… People who come from outside thoroughly check their mounts when they leave again, but people who stay inside don’t check that thoroughly when they leave.”

As much as the professors go out, they didn’t check so thoroughly when the people staying inside went out.

When Amour happened to go out with one of the professors, Amour inspected them several times, but the professor sent them away without even looking at them.

“Of course, going out alone will increase the chances of getting caught. But if you go out with me when I come in, the attention will be on me. At least this seems to be the way.”

‘shit. Can I get a ride without an owner inside the school?’

I wanted to steal the owner’s mount, but…

“I’m saying this just in case you didn’t know, but don’t think about stealing the owner’s mount.”

“of course. I have no intention of doing anything like that.”

Amur nodded with a satisfied smile at Lee Han’s answer.

“exactly. It is barbaric and cruel to forcefully separate it from its owner.”

“……”

Lee Han gave up because he thought, ‘Since it’s a mount for wizards, the moment you steal it, the alarm will go off and the owner will be contacted’, but he didn’t point it out because the other person seemed satisfied.

‘There are still many uncertainties… but at least this is the plan with the highest possibility right now.’

Lee Han didn’t say, ‘How do you get a vehicle that flies around the school!’ or ‘I don’t check thoroughly, but even if I unluckily remove the hood and cape, I might get caught!’

That was the sound of a loser.

‘I’ll do it. If that’s the only way out!’

“…Thank you very much!”

“also! When I first saw your eyes, I thought you weren’t a normal student. From now on, once every two weeks, I will visit the school at midnight on Saturday. Once you’ve prepared your mount, come to the stable at the top of the school tower. I will wait an hour each time I visit. If you come prepared, we will go out together.”

Lee Han nodded and suddenly became curious.

Although they offered money, it was too much trouble for the owner of the stable to handle.

I don’t know if Lee Han will come out every time, but to come and wait for an hour.

“By the way… Please forgive me as this may be an rude question. Why are you helping me like this?”

At Lee Han’s question, Amour scratched his beard and grinned.

“The school is harassing students like you with ridiculously harsh rules. In my hometown we hate rules like that. I couldn’t stand still when I saw students fighting like this.”

“…thank you!”

Han Lee was impressed.

Righteousness and cooperation were still alive outside of school!

* * *

The time for going out was coming to an end.

I had to calculate the time to go back, so now there was not much time left.

‘There is one more place to stop by.’

Lee Han hurriedly ran away.

It was < The Workshop of the Illusion Wizard Valdororn >.

Not all wizards obtained imperial offices and served as civil servants.

Some wizards received requests and solved them together with adventurers, and some wizards set up workshops in villages and lived on various requests.

The place Lee Han is now visiting was one of those workshops.

“…??”

Baldororn was taken aback by the student’s appearance.

No matter how you look at it, he was a student at a magic school.

‘Why is a magic school student coming?’

Baldororn was a magician with maximum 3rd circle magic. This was about the level of a 2nd or 3rd year at a magic school.

There are several archmages inside, but they dared to come to Valdororn’s workshop.

Besides, looking at the other person’s atmosphere, it seemed that he was not an ordinary nobleman.

From the intonation of speech to the appearance and gait, the great aristocrats cannot be hidden no matter how much they dress them up.

“What are you doing here?”

“I’m here to consult about magic.”

“……”

Baldororn was absurd.

‘Did you come here to pick a fight?’

With youthful spirit, ‘You can’t set up a workshop at this level!’…

“Tell me.”

However, once he had received the consultation fee, Baldur Orn decided to listen.

“I am trying to enter a certain tower, but there is a magic to prevent intruders. As you specialize in fantasy magic, I thought you might know something.”

“……”

Baldororn was absurd.

Isn’t it too obvious what kind of tower that tower is referring to?

‘It’s a tower inside a magic school…!’

Looking back, Lee Han’s clothes were those of a first grader. Valdororn became even more bewildered.

So, it’s not enough that the first graders succeeded in escaping the school, so they came to find a way to pierce the warning magic in the school?

‘…I’m going to become a great wizard in the future!’

Valdororn simply exclaimed in admiration.

He seems to have been casually hanging out while smoking a cigarette when he was that age…

“There are countless types of magic to prevent intruders. To the point that no mage knows all magic. An excellent wizard can recognize the structure of such prevention magic, and a more advanced wizard can reverse it…”

Baldororn was speechless.

This was a matter of knowledge and experience, apart from talent.

An excellent safecracker had plans for thousands of locks in his head.

As such, even if you encounter a lock you have never seen before, you can quickly figure out what kind of structure it is compared to existing lock blueprints.

It was similar to piercing the magic to block intruders.

I had to keep hundreds of prevention magics commonly used in the empire in my head so that I could recognize ‘this is a mixture of certain spells’ and ‘this is similar to a certain spell’ even when I met magic I had never seen before.

No genius could have simply dispelled the prevention magic without knowledge and experience.

“This…requires seasoned experience and a lot of knowledge. No matter how many questionable spells I tell you, you won’t be able to dispel them if you don’t master them. I’d rather break the spell than dispel it…”

Baldororn paused as he spoke.

It was inadvertently saying something nonsensical.

Dispelling the magic gracefully and quietly was, of course, more magically difficult.

But breaking the spell was never easy.

In some ways, it could be said to be more difficult.

If it was magic in the magic school, the amount of magic power would be considerable, but it had to be struck with so much force that the solid structure that supported the magic was shaken.

Where can I get that kind of power?

“…no. I made a mistake. This is nonsense.”

“no. Please tell me in detail how to break it.”

“?!!”
