Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Chapter 272

Fortunately, it didn’t lead to a fire. Thanks to Lee Han’s step forward, the students bought time to close the windows and hurriedly put out the lights.

“My… my assignment…”

“When I go back to the mansion, I throw away all the phoenix storybooks!”

The confused students exhaled heavily and glanced out the windows.

The phoenix looked at me and flapped its wings as if something was wrong.

Tak-tak!

“Why are you doing that? Why are you doing that!”

“Aren’t you asking me to open the window? You’re pointing at the window!”

“Didn’t the wizard who fulfilled the phoenix’s request receive a great reward in the same fairy tale?”

“Never open it!”

At Kainando’s words, his friends growled and shouted.

Even if you were tricked twice, you didn’t qualify as a wizard if you were tricked three times.

■■■■■…

Suddenly, the phoenix started chirping. It was a cry more like a song than a chirp.

The song of the phoenix also quelled the anger of the student whose assignment had just been burned.

“…Can I open it?”

Fuck!

“evil!”

“Calm down.”

Lee Han hit his friend in the stomach with a cane.

Looking around, I was surprised to see that all the students had calmed down their anger.

‘what? Does it have the effect of interfering with the mind?’

No matter how beautiful the song was, it could not appease the anger caused by the burnt assignment. It was clear that there was some kind of magical power.

Among the monsters, there were also monsters that could seduce people with their sound.

If the song of the phoenix had such power…

“Close your ears.”

Lee Han put cotton in the ears of his friends. Then, the student who had just calmed down his anger exploded again.

“That bastard is playing with me?!”

‘The song must have been the cause.’

The students covered their ears and waited. After the song ended, Lee Han opened his mouth again.

“It’s over.”

“Wardanaz! Give me instructions!”

A student holding a burnt assignment said with burning eyes.

“Instructions?”

“okay!”

“I will do anything!”

Lee Han also responded to the hot cry of his friends.

“Then… let’s sit down and study again.”

“……”

“…Huh?”

“What ‘uh’ is that? Sit down and study again.”

“Oh no. Weren’t you going to catch the phoenix?”

“How do I catch the phoenix?”

At Lee Han’s question, the friends were speechless.

what?

‘I know?’

‘Definitely, it turns out…’

I inadvertently thought that Wodanaz would catch it, but when I thought about it carefully, the phoenix was not a monster that 1st year students could catch.

“Why did I think Wardanaj would catch it?”

“Me too.”

“It must be because I don’t want to study. Sit quickly.”

The students who had been putting on their coats hung them up again with sullen expressions. The princess secretly returned the fire resistance potion she had taken out of the box.

“Still, it’s bright and it’s good to focus. Isn’t it?”

‘He’s my friend, but he really seems like a crazy person sometimes.’

Gainando thought so and grabbed the quill.

* * *

Contrary to the expectations of some of his friends (actually, there were more of them), Lee Han had no intention of capturing the phoenix.

In fact, even if he tried to catch the phoenix, he had no idea how to catch it.

How can a first-year student catch a phantom beast with eternal life that resurrects from any attack?

However, when the phoenix blocked my way to the morning lecture, I seriously thought, ‘Should I catch it?’

■■■… ■■■…

The phoenix chirped and circled in front of the students.

It was funny as if he was joking around, but I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw the fire burning underneath it every time I turned around.

“This is a revelation from heaven telling us not to listen to lectures!”

“Don’t talk nonsense. All scattered! Get his attention!”

How professors never understand perception.

Even if the world perished on the way, the professors would not take it into account, but there was no way they would understand with just one phoenix.

“Freeze!”

“for a moment. Wodanaz. The ice magic right now is because of the phoenix…”

Damn it!

“…a very effective choice.”

“You were just going to say that ice magic won’t work because of the phoenix, right?”

“My me when.”

The student at the Blue Dragon Tower, who saw ice sculptures appearing in the air, turned around.

Yoner whispered urgently.

“Lee Han. If you provoke it for nothing, you could endanger yourself.”

The relatively realistic Yoner hadn’t even thought of capturing the phoenix.

That’s what I’m thinking of doing with my friends who put sawdust in their heads instead of brains…

“That’s definitely true. Wodanaz. Even if you try, set up a decoy just in case. Another bait for the phoenix to chase.”

Guinando shook his head, probably thinking that Asan’s words were plausible. Then he asked.

“How do I set the bait?”

“Yeah…”

“?”

Lee Han interrupted the conversation before the two started fighting.

“I’m not trying to attack you. It’s to draw attention.”

Along with the horse, pieces of ice began to hover in the air. The phoenix, which stood in front of the students and complained as if asking to play, showed interest in the ice sculpture and chased after it.

“run!”

The ice fragments did not last long and melted. Lee Han threw the next piece of ice to catch the phoenix’s attention and ran.

Gainando gasped and shouted.

“Why do I have to go this far to study!?”

The Blue Dragon Tower students who ran together nodded involuntarily.

“Everyone worked hard during the semester. If you learned the magic of various schools this semester, you will learn basic and practical magic that does not belong to the school next semester.”

Until the last lecture of the semester, Professor Garcia had time to ask questions from students instead of cramming knowledge into students’ heads.

If there is a blockage in basic elemental magic, if there is a blockage in basic fantasy magic, if there is a blockage in basic fantasy magic, if there is a blockage in geometry and arithmetic, then geometry and arithmetic… He was a true educator

.

“professor.”

“ask.”

“There is a phoenix outside the classroom, how do I get it out?”

“I couldn’t sleep last night because of the phoenix!”

The victims were not only the students of the Blue Dragon Tower.

The other Tower students were also blinded by the phoenix’s mischief that began in earnest yesterday evening.

Even if I try to sleep, I wake up with a bright light like broad daylight, and when I go to lecture, he shows up and asks me to play with him…

It is rather rare to have a clever bully like Lee Han, and the White Tiger Tower students had to come out 30 minutes late because of the phoenix.

Priest Nigisor was puzzled.

“Why are other classmates doing that? The night has become as bright as the day and the cold has disappeared, but we should not thank the phoenix…” “

Shh. be quiet.”

“Keep your mouth shut.”

The discerning priests blocked Priest Nigisore’s mouth.

Just because everyone had been in the temple their whole life didn’t mean they were ignorant.

“Oh… what should everyone do? Defeating the phoenix would be impossible at your level.”

Professor Garcia said with a face full of pity.

“Even with wordanaz? Is it okay to use wordanaz?”

At Anrago’s question, the Blue Dragon Tower students looked at each other in amazement.

Can wordanaz be your sword?

“Even a student like this is impossible, of course…”

‘Thank you. professor.’

Seeing Professor Garcia reply in an absurd voice, Lee Han was filled with gratitude.

Other professors should learn something like that.

“Basically, the phoenix is not a violent monster, but it is not an easy monster to defeat either. Some kind of attack won’t work.”

Professor Garcia swung his staff and threw a rock spear at the phoenix outside the window.

puck!

The rock spear pierced the phoenix with a dull sound, but the rock spear burned and disappeared in an instant, and the phoenix flapped its wings as if nothing had happened.

Seeing him so calm even though he was pierced by a spear, he didn’t seem to feel any pain at all.

“Did you see it?”

“Then…then do we have to live like this for the rest of our lives?”

“It’s not a flat life. It will disappear over time. The phantom beasts that appeared in another dimension can’t stay in reality for long.”

“When?”

“What if your magic power runs out?”

“……”

* * *

In less than two days, the phoenix made first-year students neurotic.

He wakes me up when I sleep, and when I go outside to listen to a lecture, he rushes to play with me, and when I try to study while basking in the sun, the paper is burned… There were

even new rules in the tower.

-Forbidden Words of the Month-

Phoenix

Festival

Bird

Chicken

Fire

Hot

Warm

The Phoenix was giving the students a solid lesson.

What kind of disaster can befall the magicians’ immature behavior!

Who would have expected that they would come like this just because they celebrated the festival in a small way?

“Is there really no way?”

“A phoenix… is too much.”

Lee Han heats up the frying pan, puts oil and butter on it, and throws in the mushrooms he dug from the garden.

Mushrooms that absorb oil and butter tend to be crispy and moist.

However, in spite of this bribe, Professor Lightningstep did not give the answer he wanted.

“It’s a weekend from tomorrow, but if this happens on the weekend, next week’s exam will be a big deal. Isn’t that what the principal summoned?”

“Interesting conspiracy theory, but if the principal wanted to sabotage your exams, he would have done it cheaper. It’s a phoenix summon. If it was done artificially, it would be prohibitively expensive.”

Professor Lightning Walk said that and ate the mushroom. I felt it all over again, but I wondered if the most genius talent of the disciple in front of me was not magic, but cooking.

“Still, haven’t you learned how to avoid the phoenix?”

“That’s true, but is there anything else you can use in your life to avoid the phoenix?”

“It won’t happen if you go outside, but it might happen once or twice more at magic school.”

“……”

“It’s a joke.”

When Lee Han looked serious, Professor Lightning Walk spoke as if soothing.

“It’s not that I didn’t tell you on purpose, it’s because there really is no proper way. The phoenix is kind of… a phantom beast close to a natural disaster. If you ask me to teach you how to prevent a drought or a flood, I will not be able to answer. Even when Professor Bagreck asked, he couldn’t answer.”

“Really…yes?”

Lee Han, who was listening, raised his head.

Professor Voladi suddenly came out and was embarrassed.

“What did Professor Bagreck ask?”

“I hear you want to capture the phoenix and use it for battle. I guess that’s too much.”

“……”

Lee Han stroked his chest inwardly.

He passed the risk of dying without even knowing it.

“I think so too.”

“Professor Bagreck also agreed. So you said you should borrow Cerberus…”

“…Yeah!??!”

Lee Han’s eyes shook with a sense of betrayal.

I cooked with the best mushrooms, but this kind of betrayal?

“I told you that Cerberus is a rare and big guy, so it’s impossible for him to fight.”

“…thank you. Would you like some beer?”

“It’s good? But why all of a sudden?”

Lee Han opened the secret floor door hidden by Professor Thunderwalk and took out a keg.

“really. Professor Wooreegeol isn’t coming today?”

“Ah… he must be busy.”

“Is anything going on?”

“no. I’m thinking about making the final exam difficult.”

“…Please wait a moment. I will bring you some snacks.”

Lee Han also opened another secret floor door hidden by Professor Thunderwalk.
