Life of a Magic Academy Mage – 464



Episode 464

“Wardanaz is from a great noble family so he is a bit different in this regard.”

Salko said bluntly.

Siren was surprised to hear those words and looked at Lee Han.

Do people from a great noble family in the empire usually grab a siren by the back of her neck and drag her up the stairs?

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

In response to Lee Han’s question Siren slightly averted her gaze and began writing again.

He heard that this swampy area was originally a lake with clear water.

It was one of the resting places for the sirens wandering around the underground waterways of Einrogard but this time it was turned into a swamp due to the spirit flood.

It was unfair but Mac who was supposed to be deep inside the library suddenly got angry and crawled out and started destroying all over the place.

It was a bonus to mark the territory in the swampy area that was originally Siren’s lake.

“…”

“…”

The Black Turtle Tower students looked at Lee Han with lukewarm eyes.

That look contained the meaning ‘Aren’t you angry because we destroyed the library furniture to build a fortress and occupied it?’

Lee Han answered firmly.

“He must be angry because of the spirit flood.”

“…”

‘Wouldn’t the flood have any effect deep inside the library?’

While the students were confused Lee Han immediately continued with what he had to say.

“I didn’t save you to show off but you won’t forget your grace today right? “I heard that the honorable descendants of the original spirits are sure to receive blessings.”

‘I’m so embarrassed.’

Salko suddenly felt his face getting hot.

Looking at Salkodo Lee-han who came from the masonry guild and learned that ‘you can’t eat face’ he admits that he still has a long way to go.

He planned to write down what he learned from Lee Han the next time he took on an architectural commission.

“let’s go. Salchow. “I need to check how far its territory is.”

As long as the skeleton principal was suspicious he couldn’t leave it like this.

Lee Han planned to follow until the end and see how far Mac’s territory was.

“But Wardanaz… if Mac is upset about the fort that’s a different story. Besides… I don’t think Mac would have the ability to secretly kidnap a student. Especially when you’re angry like that.”

Although his head was full of worries Salchow was also thinking about something similar to Giselle.

Mac was far from a quiet and secret kidnapping.

“I can’t help it. Salchow. In fact I suspect that Mac may have been instigated by someone.”

“Who whose?”

“It’s the principal. But it’s not certain…”

“I knew that!”

Salko shouted with burning eyes. Lee Han was slightly embarrassed.

“Oh no. “This is only a possibility and there is no confirmation so I’m going to follow Mac to the end and check it out…”

“Wardanaz. Do you know dwarf intuition?”

‘You’re an elf…’

“That intuition is telling me. The principal is the culprit. He’s the only one. “If I’m going to take you with me I’ll take the White Tiger Tower guys with me!”

“…Anyway I guess you agree that we should chase after him and check it out?”

“okay. sorry. “For taking up time.”

-♪♩♩♩…

“Show your true colors again!”

Lee Han shouted and spun his body around. And he aimed his staff.

Then the Siren looked very angry and slapped the ground with her hand.

Crack clap clap!

She had been singing in writing earlier but the students were ignoring her because they were talking among themselves.

“ah. sorry.”

Siren glared at Lee Han with harsh eyes that had lost all the gratitude she had felt just now.

Her eyes looked like she wanted to sing several angry songs in a row.

* * *

Siren’s proposal was simple.

She said she would help her track down Mac.

In the swampy area where the topography has recently changed there are many places where if you take a wrong step you will go down steeply and the path is complicated so even if you follow the traces there is a high possibility of missing it.

“Indeed… wait. You wouldn’t think of repaying her favor with this would you? “I’m asking because I don’t know.”

“Wardanaz… can’t we just say that later…”

“Salko. What are you talking about? “In the first place important things should be said in advance.”

The Siren shook her head and dragged one of her old rowboats and put her students on top.

And she began to swim pushing the boat. The ferryboat gained speed in an instant and quickly traversed the swamp.

‘The Sirens had this ability.’

Lee Han was inwardly impressed.

I thought she only sang well but she served as a reliable vehicle when breaking through underwater areas like this.

Meanwhile Sharkan skilfully jumped onto the dry ground and ran ahead. Finding Mac’s traces first and not slowing down was not something any summon could do.

The Siren looked at Sharkan with renewed surprise.

I couldn’t believe that a young student could do that.

It’s not surprising if you experience magical exhaustion right away…

-Crrrrrrrrrrr!

Sharkan who was running so well suddenly stopped her movements and showed her alertness by sticking out her claws.

“…!”

The students opened their eyes wide.

The small island located in front of the swamp was covered with a black fluttering curtain as if it were some kind of curtain.

-♪♩♩!!

When the siren sang a short song Lee Han immediately looked away. The Siren urgently stopped her song and wrote her handwriting.

It was really bad writing like Gainando but Lee Han caught it with a frown.

“…ah. “Mac’s abilities are being activated?”

Siren hastily nodded her head.

Mac treasured nightmares so much that he made them his food but sometimes when he really needed to he would spit out the nightmares he had swallowed and threaten others.

The pitch-black curtain spread over the island was a sign of that.

Mac’s veil of nightmare!

“That’s ridiculous. “Why would Mac do something like that?”

-…

-…?

Siren and Sharkan looked at Lee Han at the same time.

Although they were of different races their eyes said ‘Because you chased me…’

Lee Han responded firmly.

“It’s strange that a guy who does that just because a first-year student is chasing him. And I didn’t pursue you with bad intentions in the first place. “I came here to check what happened.”

Siren tried as hard as she could to write ‘That’s not important right now why don’t you tell Mac directly’ but her Mac’s reaction was one step faster.

She began to expand the veil.

“Light reveal the truth! “Parkmu spread!”

Lee Han quickly cast <Grant Light of Truth> and <Ogonin’s Dark Dance>.

The former is for countering the spreading nightmare.

The latter is for the purpose of stopping the spreading nightmare.

But Mac’s Nightmare Veil was more powerful than expected. He came rushing in like a wave of water swallowing up the light and fog and hitting the students like that.

“omg!”

“Ugh…!”

There were groans among the students.

I had fallen into the nightmare that Mac had collected and spewed out.

“…uh.”

Lee Han was slightly embarrassed.

It wasn’t because of the nightmares it was because the nightmares were so ineffective.

He knew that he had strong resistance due to magic but he still thought he would see an illusion for a moment…

I felt a little embarrassed because I couldn’t see anything and just saw the nightmare curtain pass by.

‘This is not the time.’

He had to restrain Mac as quickly as possible.

Even though it didn’t look that dangerous on the outside from this illusion attack the damage accumulating inside was significant.

The longer he was held the more dangerous he became.

‘To access it you must awaken the Siren. Will she wake up? Will she wake up if I give her a strong shock?

Lee Han looked at the Siren wondering what kind of magic to use.

However the Siren was watching Lee Han with her distant distant eyes.

“…”

-…

When I thought about it Siren was a powerful spirit that possessed other beings with her song so it was natural that she had strong resistance to nightmares like this.

Lee Han slowly lowered his cane.

Siren looked at Lee Han suspiciously.

“hurry! Guide me to where the pulse is! “We have to save our friends!”

At Lee Han’s shout the Siren nodded her head in panic and she began pushing her stomach again.

Mac cried out as she burst inside even though she was having a nightmare.

■■■■■…

“What does he say?”

The Siren hastily wrote her writing on the gunwale.

Why are you torturing me?

“… It’s ridiculous that she would say something like that after harassing good people in the first place! But let us good people give in. “Tell them that if they stop the nightmare immediately and stop the attack the students will leave the library as soon as the flood is over!”

-???

Siren wanted to ask what she meant by the students leaving the library but she didn’t have the time.

First of all she told the Siren as it was.

-♩♩♩♪…

“How dare you!”

When Lee Han heard his singing voice he reacted instinctively.

Then she realized that it had no effect as all her friends were in nightmares.

“ah. sorry. “Keep calling.”

-…

The Siren’s fingers tightened as she held on to her ferry.

■■■■…

Siren worked hard to translate.

Mac was asking ‘Is that really true?’

“I swear on my family’s name.”

Siren was greatly surprised by Lee Han’s sincerity.

I never thought I would even put my family name on it.

Isn’t it a bit excessive?

“Tell him I need to check on him instead. “I may have been instigated by the principal.”

Are you talking about a distant dog…

“…Anyway tell them to confirm! If you want to avoid fighting with each other!”

* * *

The students who were released from the nightmare approached Mac’s nest with careful movements.

Surprisingly there really was no trace of the skeletal principal.

Death knights and other traces of magic all of that.

Salko whispered with a serious expression.

“Maybe it’s camouflage?”

Mac looked down at Salchow with disdain in his eyes.

Lee Han spoke with a nervous expression.

“I’m looking for a student who suddenly disappeared. Do you know anything?”

■■■■■.

As the Siren hesitated she interpreted.

“…During this time professors often take students away for the precognition magic test? What a ridiculous slander… Professor Kraer who is not even the principal would do such a thing…!”

Lee Han who was speaking hesitated.

Come to think of it there was no particular law preventing Professor Kraer from doing such a thing.

‘What do I know about Professor Craer?’

The only rule to follow for professors was ‘don’t underestimate.’

■■■■■■■…

I heard you used to do it yourself while helping prepare for the Hansang magic test?

“…Let’s just accept that opinion for now. “I will check.”

Lee Han immediately took out paper and a quill.

“Tell me the details of the situation. When and where did you help prepare for the Illusion Magic test? Did you help this year too? And if it was for the precognition magic test where did they keep the students? “Tell me.”

Mac hesitated.

The professor didn’t forbid anything but he wondered if he could say this.

Lee Han urged strongly.

“Uh-huh! Do you want to see students continue to live in the library?”

Tears welled up in Mac’s eyes.

In the end Mac gave up and revealed the information he knew.

■■■…

The expression of the siren who was interpreting next to her became increasingly subtle.

She was clearly a bad guy who arbitrarily invaded their territory and caused trouble but strangely she started to feel like a villain more and more.

If you look at it objectively it would be a good result for Mac to return to his territory and for the Sirens to regain their territory but why…

The wizard boy’s sculptural face shining through the flickering lights seemed to shine even more evilly.

‘…It’s probably because of my mood!’
