Surviving as a Mage in a Magic Academy - Chapter 508

Chapter 508

Chapter 508

'Hmm.'

The junior must have had quite a lot of mana and mental power consumption today from making the cursed doll.

...Come to think of it, mana wasn't the case, but mental power consumption was also an important issue.

Magic was originally a task that required a high degree of concentration, so mental fatigue was bound to accumulate with each casting.

However, Direth did not stop the junior.

Seeing him taking out a bone fragment from his reagent pouch and pondering hard, she didn't feel like stopping him again.

'Will it be okay...?'

Seeing Yi-Han vigorously taking out the bone fragment and making various preparations, she thought that she might be worrying for nothing.

Shouldn't a genius be treated in a way befitting a genius?

Telling a genius to go slowly was just a meaningless interference.

'Yes. Let's leave him be.'

"Senior. I'm trying to compress the dark element into the bone fragment..."

"That's usually hard to do on the spot. I'll lend you..."

"How about this much?"

Direth raised her head and looked at the bone fragment placed on Yi-Han's palm.

In that short moment while he was pondering, this junior had accurately compressed the dark element into the reagent.

Seeing him solve the groundwork that would take ages in a workshop or magic tower on the spot, just like the cursed doll, Direth seriously pondered.

'Could this junior be partly responsible for the professors' continued mischief?'

No matter how most of Einroguard's professors were lunatics, even though they could just stop, could the junior who kept trying to make progress step by step also be somewhat responsible?

Moreover, if he made that progress too well, wouldn't he be even more responsible to some extent?

'Ah. What crazy thoughts am I having...'

Direth kept shaking her head, trying to shake off the wicked thoughts.

To blame the junior instead of the professor in this crazy magic academy.

No matter how outstanding Yi-Han showed in magic, the professors' actions were not justified.

If one had a human heart, it should be 'They're doing a lot even now, so I should stop them a bit' instead of 'Since they're still fine, I should make them do more.'

Clack clack clack-

"..."

Although she had just made a firm resolution, Direth felt her resolution wavering at the sight of the junior lightly summoning over ten dark skeleton warriors.

—

Summoning skeleton warriors and summoning skeleton warriors enhanced with dark elements did not differ greatly in principle.

If one could only control the dark element imbued in the reagent during the summoning process, the rest was taken care of by the undead summoned from the undead realm.

Of course, it was a bit more difficult for Yi-Han.

It was because, unlike other necromancers, he was learning ancient necromancy, which directly summoned from the bottom instead of summoning from the undead realm.

However, even considering that, it was not to the extent that he couldn't do it.

Yi-Han already had a lot of experience summoning skeleton warriors and fighting with them, and...

'Is it a bit unstable?'

When the dark element imbued in the bones wavered and tried to leak out, Yi-Han immediately poured mana to stabilize it.

Since the most dangerous situation when dealing with unstable elements like the dark element was going out of control, Yi-Han's response was an advantage that no one could match.

'There's no need to summon Gonadaltes.'

Yi-Han was satisfied to see the skeleton warriors ominously spreading black energy.

The dark element was a unique element that dealt damage to the opponent just by contact.

Ordinary skeleton warriors could not defeat a skilled opponent head-on, but these skeleton warriors were different. If one did not know how to deal with them, their vitality would be taken away in an instant and they would be defeated.

'Since the summoning itself was successful, now if I combine them into one...'

Yi-Han prepared to disassemble and reassemble the summoned skeleton warriors into one.

If he did such a violent thing to an undead summoned from the undead realm, he could immediately get stabbed in the back, but ancient necromancy was much freer in this aspect.

For Yi-Han, who could not yet control a large number of skeleton warriors, this process was essential.

Swish-

"?"

Yi-Han, who was about to swing his staff to disassemble them, was startled to see the skeleton warriors moving.

'What?'

It was not a mistake.

When he swung his staff again and moved his mana, the skeleton warriors moved accordingly.

While unfolding a huge water shield in the air to further strengthen his defense, Yi-Han advanced the skeleton warriors enhanced with dark elements.

'They're moving properly!'

Honestly, it was moving to see the skeleton warriors slowly but heavily advancing in formation.

It felt like the worries accumulated from the failed magic were being rewarded.

Thud!

The wooden soldiers seemed to be made with quite strong magic, as they overpowered the skeleton warriors when they collided.

Despite holding shields in the same way, the skeleton warriors were being pushed back little by little.

However...

"Hold on!"

Yi-Han had a corner he believed in.

As expected, the wooden soldier dummies that came into contact with the dark element began to slow down and lose strength.

In a prolonged battle, his side had no choice but to have the advantage.

After enduring and enduring and finally bringing down the opponent, Yi-Han sighed in relief and looked at Direth.

"Senior?"

Direth was thinking, 'Wait, why did I bring him here? Isn't the difficulty too high?' and then answered with a start.

"Yes?"

"Thank you. But is this the dungeon of the dark magic school?"

"You're quick-witted. This is a dungeon managed by the enchantment magic school."

"Ah. No wonder."

Maintaining wooden soldiers of that level artificially was magic of considerable difficulty.

It made sense when she said it was a dungeon managed by the enchantment magic school.

"Are you also close with the enchantment magic school, senior?"

"No. They don't socialize much."

"Then how? Ah."

"You understand?"

"Did we sneak in?"

Yi-Han gave a meaningful look as if he understood.

Direth was dumbfounded and paused for a moment before answering.

"...I told Professor Verduus and came in. You also take enchantment magic."

"Ah."

Yi-Han felt slightly embarrassed.

"We've checked it out, should we go back?"

"Can we check a little more?"

"More here?"

Direth fluttered her wings and was puzzled.

He had already checked the command by advancing and retreating the skeleton warriors, so she didn't understand what more he wanted to check.

And the mana...

'No. The mana will be fine.'

Was he trying to check bone-type weapons or utilization methods?

"Can you do more?"

"Yes."

"Okay. Then."

With Direth's permission, Yi-Han led the undead inside.

And a roar erupted.

Boom!!!!!

"...?!?!!!"

While Direth was watching in horror, Yi-Han advanced the remaining skeleton warriors towards the formation of the wooden soldier dummies shattered by the bone explosion without blinking an eye.

'If an explosion of this level of power occurs, I'll be able to endure it somehow with a shield.'

Although one skeleton warrior was consumed, it was worth it. The wooden dummies slowed down even more from the explosion mixed with the dark element.

"Senior. I'm trying to combine poison elements too, so if you could give me some guidance... Senior? Senior??"
