chapter 3
Academy’s Genius Tamer Episode 3
It’s a bumpy cross section, whether it’s been bitten by a tooth.
No matter what, the guy was biting the lock he had ripped open with his mouth.
well water.
… Of course I lost it.
“Kieen… .”
“no. You are not eating it.”
Dragons are no different from dogs.
It’s almost like Jijiri doesn’t listen.
bum bum.
He took a deep breath and made his way out to the left.
As the light slowly brightens, it looks like it came out right.
Damn, it’s so hard to get out of this maze.
I realized once again that trying to escape from here without thinking was almost suicidal.
“Whew… .”
Taking a short breath, he looked at the door, perhaps the last day.
Now if I just rip it out and leave… .
“I don’t think I could have made it this far… uh?”
“Come here. Is the lock broken?”
“What?”
A voice was heard.
“Damn.”
Whoops.
He covered his mouth and took a step back.
A dead end road except for the door at the back.
If it was close enough to hear the voices so clearly, it was clear that it would not be as easy as before.
bum bum.
The terrifying sound of footsteps approached this way little by little.
A low-pitched voice spoke as if commanding.
“Look thoroughly.”
“yes!”
“Wait a moment.”
Feel the blood draining.
I tried not to make a sound, but I had no choice but to bite my lip at the next words.
“… I think I found it.”
damn.
Without hesitation, he turned back.
Then I ran as hard as I could, but I couldn’t help but sense that it was already too late.
A sharp voice echoed from behind.
“Here, grab it!”
A labyrinth-like internal structure.
It used to be frustrating, but now it’s fortunate.
“Where did you splash?”
He quickly ran without rest, hiding himself to the right.
There was no time to rest.
I’m sure they’ll figure out where I am, even by using detection magic.
You have to get out before that.
He bit his lower lip and bent it to the left again.
“The exit… .”
There is one in the direction we were about to open the door and go out.
There must have been another one on the side they came in.
The former has no way to break through because the opponent is already killing it.
Then there is only one answer.
“Hey, reptile. Follow!”
“… !”
The boy’s steps got faster and faster.
I had no problem getting to the exit, thanks to a quick scan of the structure on the way out.
“It’s over there!”
The problem was that there were warlocks here too.
“Damn.”
They look like two starfish from behind.
From the looks of it, Han Si-ha, who can’t even use first-class magic properly, is not an opponent who can get through it.
Even so, you should try
You can’t just look back.
“catch!”
My head spins quickly when my life gets messed up.
A magic that even my body can avoid… .
The contents of Seulkademie passed quickly as if scanned in my head.
And, I just remembered something useful.
“Whew… .”
smog.
Basic self-defense magic is the first thing you learn when you enter Ardel Academy.
Literally, it is a magic that spreads white smoke in front of the enemy and hides it, but it is a magic that Han Si-ha, who had no talent in magic, learned it.
“I’ve never done it, but… .”
He took a deep breath, concentrating his strength on his fingertips.
The feeling of filling this narrow cave with pure white smoke.
It’s a magic you’ve already learned, so you can cast enough without any special techniques.
body knows
body.
“please… please… .”
Follow me just once, Han Si-ha.
All the bad deeds your bastard has committed, I’m chasing after you.
So, please.
The result of concentrating my whole mind until my fingertips trembled.
Puss.
“under.”
succeded.
It was a little cumbersome though.
A hazy smoke that seemed to have been filled with briquettes obscured my vision in an instant.
“uh?”
“Shit. I, a loach-like bastard!”
The two stargazers hurriedly spit out swear words, seemingly embarrassed by the fact that their vision was obscured.
“Where did you splash?”
“Do not stand still! How do you do it!”
“Ask for help this way!”
I’m so glad those assholes are clumsy.
If it had been a proper warlock rather than a scoundrel, he would have already set up a priest and put money in the pig’s mouth.
Maybe I should be grateful that this isn’t the place I’ve seen it.
Due to the lack of manpower, it seems that there were some such scumbags in this attached facility.
He sighed in relief and quickly opened the door.
Perhaps he had rushed to the door with the lock on, and quickly opened the door that was already open.
That was the moment.
“Where is this loach!”
gagging.
He staggered forward at the feeling of choking his neck.
This… It’s not hand-stitching.
“Ugh… .”
Some kind of curse magic.
It doesn’t have the power to directly kill people, but it’s realistic to keep your feet tied up for a while. You must have left me like this and left to ask for support.
A cold voice echoed through the smog.
“If you give up now and come out, at least I will kill you without pain.”
Isn’t that the end result?
“If you don’t want to die slowly, life will be sucked in until you die, so it would be better to judge quickly.”
“Gagging… Whoops. don’t worry. It’s not going to be that easy.”
If it’s a physical attack, I’ll try to deal with it anyway.
The opponent is hidden from view, and both arms are slowly losing their strength.
I wish I could have learned a magic that could lift the curse.
Even if he thoughtfully rolls his head, the magic is not in Han Si-ha’s memory.
If so, the only variable.
I slowly turned my head to look at him.
A situation in which there is hardly any affinity.
I don’t know if I’ll be able to control it even with this kind of timing skill.
“please… .”
“Kye-eek!”
That was then.
A dragonfly with its wings spread out like a miracle.
“What is this sound?”
Before the caster of the curse magic could even step back in bewilderment, it spewed fire.
Flames rising through the cracks of pure white smoke.
“Ah, hot… float! Hot!”
“what? What happened?”
“aah!”
While the caster was unconscious, the curse magic was dispelled.
He shook his head slowly and took a deep breath.
It must have been magic that cut my life force, so I wouldn’t be able to use it for a while.
“Aww!”
“This way, this way!”
We’ve got to get out of there quickly when it’s open.
“let’s go.”
As soon as I raise my head and call him, it flaps its wings and gently sits on my shoulder.
It’s a lot more than I thought.
“Good job.”
“Coo!”
I locked the door so that he couldn’t follow me sooner.
succeeded in avoiding the body.
After a quick escape through the gap in the open door with a grin, he locked the door.
If that’s the case, I won’t be able to follow you anytime soon.
“Let’s go, beggar cave.”
* * *
A sand wind blew past my cheeks over the desolate road.
We got out safely, but it wasn’t too difficult.
“Coo… .”
I’ve been walking for an hour.
I don’t know if those humans gave up or if they were still following me, but it wasn’t a very safe situation.
I’d like to find out just in case, so I’m moving around cautiously, throwing away my Ardel Academy uniforms as well.
“Coo!”
Even if this dragonfish bounces, it bounces too much.
A man with a haggard complexion with a dragon in this desolate place.
If the warlocks had seen it, they would have been dragged back to it sooner rather than later.
“There is no one there.”
Since there doesn’t seem to be anyone there to help, the moment I wanted to be captured by the warlocks like this.
“uh?”
A wagon was coming this way with its wheels off.
A carriage rushing to somewhere with two shabby horses.
I hid as much as possible and looked at the carriage.
After a quick glance, I don’t think it’s owned by the Warlocks.
“excuse me!”
Now is not the time to hide anything.
“what?”
As it came forward, the carriage came to a slow stop.
A man with a rough look wearing a straw hat grunted and stuck out his head.
“Can I ride with you?”
“Have you any money?”
As I rummaged through my pocket, a golden card popped out.
A card supported by Ardel Academy.
If the stature of the Ardel Academy, which is recognized not only in the Ardel Empire, but also in many countries, could be used like this.
“Here you go. Wouldn’t it be traumatic?”
“… !”
As soon as you show the card, your eyes change as expected.
It is impossible to pay the bloody tuition of Ardel Academy unless you are a child of a decent family.
As if he thought he would be able to pay for this even if it was traumatized, the straw hat man coughed a few times and then shook his head.
“Ride.”
“thank you!”
polka.
The dragon sitting on my lap looked strange, but he didn’t say anything as if he was a student at Ardel Academy.
The man got on the hairy carriage and asked bluntly.
“Where can I go?”
that… .
I came out as an aggressor, so if I’m unlucky, they might come to me.
I’m glad we got out before we signed the pact, but if we dig it up, we’ll find out someday.
There was no choice.
There are the most people who will kill me, but paradoxically the safest place for now.
the stage of this novel.
He bit his lower lip and spoke.
“Please go to Ardel Academy.”
* * *
In the whole of the Ardel Empire, there is no other academy as prestigious as this one.
In the first place, this was not a place to enter without natural talent or wealth.
Han Si-ha, who was in danger of failing due to neglect, was also able to enter because of her natural magic and a family that supported her appropriately.
Ardel Academy was the place where the children of the family, whose name could make the sound of billions of dollars, went there.
“I am amazed every time I see it.”
Selen, a second-year assistant professor at Ardel Academy, put her hair back and smiled.
Because she was from a commoner, she wandered around various schools for several years and stayed as an assistant professor, but it was a sight that made her start thinking like that.
Shiny marble floors and chandeliers illuminate the ceiling.
From school uniforms to the classy atmosphere of the students.
“I am not Ardel for nothing.”
The level of education is overflowing without flow.
Just being a member of such a classy academy is so satisfying.
Selene crossed her arms as she happily greeted the students.
“Come on in.”
“Nep!”
“Hello, assistant professor!”
The students, who nodded their heads cheerfully, seemed to be busy checking today’s class schedule.
What an ideal school scene… .
by the way.
What is that?
“uh… uh!”
Woodang Tang.
A cloud of dust rose in front of the school gate along with some commotion.
Selen, who had been thinking about the word ‘culture’ countless times just before, furrowed her eyebrows in bewilderment.
“No, what is that!”
“Ugh, sand. Dirty, for real!”
murmur murmur.
A grotesque sight that has already caught the eyes of students who had already entered the front of the school gate.
Selene rubbed her eyes and grasped the situation once more.
So, what caught her eye.
“Huh… Ugh.”
A shabby carriage, quite far from culture, appeared at the school, causing sand and dust.
hey hey-
Two mean horses that cry even more uncultured.
Finally.
“I… I. Are you late?”
It was a student who appeared dusty and gasping for breath.
“What is this… .”
Selene frowned and glanced at the student slowly.
Light brown hair that slightly covered his eyes, dark brown eyes, and a pale face that seemed to be burning with heat.
‘One hour?’
Someone said that I ate liberal arts from the first day of the first semester.
It was the famous time period that went to the brink of failing because I couldn’t control even one of my magical powers.
Selene spat out the dust on her shoulder with a displeased face.
“It’s not too late. Let’s go ahead.”
“ha… thank god.”
Hanshiha laughed softly and muttered in a low voice.
“Also… Because the jjamba that I used to run around in three minutes in the classroom doesn’t go anywhere.”
What is he saying now?
Selen took a short sigh and secretly avoided Han Si-ha’s gaze.
It was because other students didn’t know, because there was no time to worry about every single student who failed this year anyway.
apart from that.
‘It’s gloomy, you bastard.’
He’s a strange guy who says he’s interested in black magic, and even rumors that he’s hugging a cursed doll every night.
There’s nothing good about being tied up.
By the way.
“Thank you! Come on in!”
“Hurry up… .”
huh?
“… Why are you like that today?”
Selene tilted her head while looking at the back of Han Si-ha, who was running back and forth.
‘Were you full of energy in the first place?’
Something.
It was because people seemed to have changed slightly in the past few months.
