The Academy’s Undercover Professor – 212



◈ Episode 212 Dream Invitation (1)

Ludger who recovered his magical power looked at people’s reactions.

‘First of all I pulled out as much magic as I could to show off but I should have called the magic amount at 40% instead of 50%.’

In fact the magic power he extracted just moments ago was the maximum mana he could use excluding the seal control technique.

Of course if you consider the amount of discharge alone it is more than 90% of his total magical power.

Ludger deliberately lowered the number to 50 percent to show off.

‘Did everyone think that 50 percent was too low? But now that I’m going to correct it I’m starting to notice.’

The good news is that his maximum magical power increased thanks to consuming the elixir given by the School Association.

Thanks to this I was able to handle more magical power than before so it wasn’t noticeable.

Due to my innate lack of magical power I committed a lot out of a happy heart.

When I saw that reaction I thought it might have been a bit excessive.

‘In times like this it’s best to just pretend not to notice.’

First of all the first day went smoothly.

Since only students with strong pride have gathered they will not listen to you and try to use their magic even if you tell them to get a good rest.

‘How long will it really take?’

In terms of talent alone the kids gathered here were higher than Ludger himself.

The only way for him to move forward is to simply follow what someone else has already created.

Applicants who are now following their own solid path will definitely be what can be called ‘real talent’.

‘They said it would be one day but it will definitely be shorter than that.’

I was excited to see how long it would take.

“Then this is the end for today.”

As soon as Ludger spoke those words the observers who had been fidgeting in their seats kicked up their chairs.

They wanted to ask Ludger as soon as possible about the interpretation of Larsil and how he created the magic suppressant.

I know you won’t tell me.

Nevertheless their intense curiosity and surprising discoveries naturally led them like moths to a flame.

That’s why Ludger’s research was so fascinating.

“That Mr. Ludger…!”

Just as the observer of the old magic tower with a beard like a goat was about to call Ludger there was someone blocking his path.

Elisa Willow rector of Seorn.

She looked at the observers with golden eyes that smiled like a crescent moon.

“Does the old Magic Tower have anything to do with our teacher Ludger?”

“That…”

“I remember I told you in advance. As an observer you can simply testify about the research results you saw at a later presentation. That was the original contract right? “You can’t break that.”

“Even so this is such a big discovery! “If we don’t let everyone know about this it will hinder the development of the magic world!”

“Then for the development of the magic world why don’t you open the secret storehouse of the Magic Tower and make it known. “There must be a mountain of papers on magic and artifacts that they hold in their arms and won’t let go.”

The observer’s eyebrows twitched angry that his organization had been insulted.

“President. That’s too harsh. “Are you insulting our magic tower just now?”

“yes. But what?”

The president’s words were firm and his actions were confident.

“What…”

“And I’m even thinking of kicking them out if they don’t keep their contract.”

The wizard of the Old Magic Tower who was about to argue had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

That was the position of an observer in the first place.

They are the ones who are only allowed to watch.

It is okay to ask a little out of curiosity but excessive contact with the other person or actions that cross the line are not allowed.

Because they had been notified of this in advance the observers at the Old Magic Tower could not bear to refute it and could only chew their lips.

‘When the president wraps around something like that it’s definitely not something serious. I actually saw it with my own two eyes.’

I had to report it to the Magic Tower right away.

However it was hard for me to believe it when I saw it myself and I was doubtful whether the people receiving the report would believe it.

‘The president is blatantly protecting Ludger Chelsea. If the interpretation of Larsil language is correct as I said and the research on the amount of magic released through magic suppressors is successfully completed…’

At that time it would be no different from Seorn holding a huge sword.

‘I’m going to turn. Are you saying I should just watch this?’

Moreover to be honest I didn’t have the courage to confront the president.

What about Ludger Chelsea?

To be honest.

When he unleashed his magic a little while ago I got goosebumps.

‘The amount of emission is high but it is enough to create magical fog. ‘He is a much more talented person than what is known to the public.’

It is said that not only the theory of magic but also its power is amazing.

‘I heard that the Daejeon shown at the festival wasn’t like this. Could it be that they were hiding their power and looking after it back then?’

The rare use of light attribute elemental magic is not enough and this is an incredible amount of magic power.

I couldn’t understand why a man like that was working as a teacher in a place like this.

He is young but in terms of magical power he is at the level of an elder of the Magic Tower.

‘For now I have no choice but to step down.’

As an observer he made a rational judgment.

As he withdrew an observer from the School Association also took notice and quietly left.

Only Rushek of the New Magic Tower bowed his head towards the president before leaving.

The president who was left behind shook his head with a smile on his face.

‘I am indeed. Even if it was just a show they showed too much. ‘Mr Ludger.’

To be honest I was equally surprised by this one.

Thanks to his innate management skills and poker face he was barely noticeable.

‘If you’re going to do this please at least give me a word in advance.’

Elisa glanced at Ludger with a dissatisfied gaze.

Ludger felt the gaze and was puzzled when the president glared at him.

‘what.’

I thought I had completed the first day’s explanation successfully but was there something missing?

‘For now I think I’ve shown you everything I need to show you.’

Above all the materials were even handed over to the president in advance.

After seeing that she evaluated it herself and stamped the research permission.

‘Were you hoping for something more unconventional?’

If I had known this would happen I should have bluffed and said that when I released my magic power I actually only used 20% of my total magic power.

However regretting the past did not change anything so Ludger humbly decided to accept his mistake.

“thank you for your effort.”

“Not much was done.”

Ludger responded to the president’s words by nodding.

“So you are sure that the inhibitor is effective?”

“yes.”

“Mr. Ludger how much do you think emissions will increase?”

“It depends on the person. Rather the more mana you naturally have the smaller the range will be.”

“In other words the less mana you have the more efficient you can be.”

“That’s the way it is.”

Even if you use 10 out of 100 mana and release 20 it is 20% of the total.

Conversely if you use 5 out of 50 mana and then release 20 it becomes 40% of the total.

Even if you can’t reverse the amount of innate mana you can at least equalize it.

It was the wisdom of our distant ancestors who sought ways to overcome differences in birth.

“But if this method is true old people will roll their eyes.”

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

“yes? “Why?”

“This is the same reason that we gathered only students as volunteers for the research. “It is only the students who can increase the emission through this method the magic suppressor.”

Elisha must not have heard those words so wrinkles appeared on her fair forehead.

“Is that true?”

“yes. This method only works for wizards who are in the midst of learning and growing. “It is of no use to those who are already old.”

“Is it really of no use?”

“As I told you in advance students will be able to see a big change in just one week. However if you are in your 20s or older there is no improvement even after half a year and if it is longer than that it is safe to say that it is virtually impossible.”

In fact it only helps in nurturing future wizards.

They said it had no effect on established wizards.

“The number of people who can benefit is narrowed down significantly. “That’s a bit of a shame.”

That’s what I said but even so this method will cause great upheaval in the magic world.

Older wizards may feel sad but if they can make the children they raise and support into stronger wizards.

That would be a great help in increasing power.

“Is this what the president secretly wanted too?”

“There is no wizard who would refuse to grow further than he is now right?”

“It’s a pity but you won’t be the president.”

“What? “Are you really saying that I’m old?”

The president’s smiling face cracked.

Ludger broke into a cold sweat at the sight.

Now that I think about it how old is the president actually?

It occurred to me that maybe there was more than it seemed.

“Hmm. What I mean is even if someone as talented as the president tried this method it wouldn’t make much of a difference.”

“…joy. That’s it. Well it’s encouraging that it’s clearly working for students.”

“yes. but….”

“We cannot give the same grace to all students. “This is it right?”

“For me it doesn’t matter if I just tell everyone.”

At those words the president stared straight at Ludger’s face.

It was to determine whether the words were simply meant to show humility or if they were sincere.

“…Do you really think that?”

“I personally don’t like giving preferential treatment to only a few people.”

“I guess so. However if this method is made known to everyone….”

“yes. “The fallout from this will certainly be significant.”

The same goes for the herbal ingredients used in the magic suppressant reagent.

A specific group could have monopolized it and then tried to wield power with it.

There is no ideal situation where everyone can benefit equally.

Because we are human we have no choice but to have desires.

And that desire will produce results that are much worse than what was originally desired.

“I also feel uneasy about solving this method…”

“But why did you say you would do it?”

“At least I think the president is a trustworthy person.”

And this was also a repayment of his trust in her.

Since President Elisha decided to let this side pass without questioning their true identity this side also showed itself worthy of that.

However the president’s eyes widened as the words seemed quite unexpected.

“President? “Why are you doing that?”

“No just. I thought it was unexpected. “Well since I’ve received so much expectation I’ll have to step up for the first time in a long time to achieve maximum results.”

“You can do whatever you feel comfortable with. “I have no intention of saying anything even if the president uses it for some personal gain.”

At those words the president glared at Ludger.

“Because you won’t? “What do you think of people?”

Ludger did not answer.

People have emotions and desires so even if they decide not to do so now there is no guarantee that they will do so in the future.

Some people don’t change.

However such people were only a very small number.

If you say it’s fortunate.

Considering what Elisa Willow had shown so far it seemed like the situation she was worried about would not happen.

Because I believe that you will at least try your best for the children.

“No matter what the results of all these achievements belong to Professor Ludger. “I have no intention of taking that away.”

“However you may be able to exert some influence in the direction of helping.”

“is it so. “To use knowledge for good.”

On the surface it seemed like a harmonious relationship but in reality it was not.

They do not judge people solely based on their emotions.

Being swept away by the emotions of the moment and looking only at bright futures and ideals is something only fools do.

President Elisha and Ludger both know that fact.

What makes them trust each other is not heartfelt confessions or open heart-to-heart conversations.

All they had to do was give each other swords to wield.

Data provided by Ludger.

President Elisa delegated authority to Ludger.

That was the reason.

That was all and that was enough.

A thorough business relationship without any mud.

Although it is a very cold and strict discipline.

“Please take care of me in the future? Mr. Ludger Chelisi. “Should I call you Director of Planning?”

Ludger took the president’s extended hand and shook it.

“You can call me at your convenience. President.”

That’s why it’s sturdy.

That’s why they could trust each other.

A quiet night has come.

Ludger was working hard with his pen in his room at his private residence organizing his future research materials in detail.

A low sound of insects crying could be heard outside the window beyond the scarlet light.

‘Is it already this time?’

The magic thesis was important but I also had to check the progress of the business taking place in Lederbelk.

After completing the entire process time flew by.

‘Still it’s not bad.’

The recent winds of change blowing at Lederbelk have been quite encouraging.

It originated from a slum and the completely changed slum is now called a new street name not a slum.

[Royal Street]

As befits its name many people came to the street and thanks to this sales were skyrocketing every day which was good news.

Ludger was satisfied folded up Hans’ report and burned it.

It was that moment.

Ugh.

The ring that was placed on the desk trembled.

It was the ring that Zero Order gave to Ludger.

“…Is it finally here?”

Ludger who thought this time would come someday grabbed the ring and put it on his hand.

Ludger turned off all the lights in the room and sat down on the sofa quietly closing his eyes.

Order meeting of the Black Dawn.

A dream invitation to go there.

Ludger gladly accepted the invitation.
