Chapter 677 – Side Story Episode 11. The Story After That (11)

Victoria Academy is the world’s leading educational institution.
It is a major premise that will never collapse unless the dungeons and gates in this world disappear.

Graduates coming from the academy every year take up important positions in various countries, and talented people increasingly flock to the Victoria Academy.
Most of the people who made great achievements in the recent demon attack and great war were from Victoria Academy.
Not only the genius wizard Lee Ho-yeon, but also the cadets who have not yet graduated have made numerous achievements.

For various reasons, Elia also knocked on the door of Victoria Academy.
Since she had already graduated from the academy in Italy, she applied as a professor rather than a cadet.

Elia’s specialty is magic.
At Victoria Academy, there is an unrivaled magic professor named Im Sol, but even so, Im Sol cannot teach all the classes alone.

Elia was also confident in her classes.
In the short time since she took office, she has experienced a great deal of attack, terrorism, and the Demon War… She eventually established herself as a professor at the vaunted Victoria Academy.

Today was her first practical class.
Originally, the practical training was under the exclusive responsibility of Professor Lim Sol, but when Lim Sol went to the Magic Society, she joined in his place.
For Elia, today was an opportunity.

‘I will definitely become friends with the cadets. Because I want to become a cool professor like Professor Lim Sol… !’

The class went as she intended.
It was a class with a warm atmosphere, with people praising and pointing out the cadets’ magic, and laughing.
There were many cadets who liked Professor Imsol because his magic was so overwhelming, but there were also cadets who liked Elia’s classes because she was kind and gentle.

Elia was really happy.
Before Hoyeon Lee used magic…

“Ah…”

A magic cannon made by Lee Ho-yeon.
The magical power gathering with the power to devour the space was not the scarecrow that was the target of the practice, but had the power to destroy the building itself.

“Hey, Cadet Lee Ho-yeon. Just adjust your strength a little…”

“Yes? Professor, what did you say?”

“No. It’s nothing…”

Elia shrugged her shoulders without realizing it.
There is no one in this world who does not know how strong Lee Ho-yeon is.
Anyone who saw him tearing a demon to death and killing a demon lord would not dare to talk back to him. It was only natural that Elia was there too.

How did this happen? Her own class is definitely a class with a lot of buzz and warmth…
Is this a dream… ?

Kugugung-!

The magic cannon created by Lee Ho-yeon rushed towards the scarecrow.
Even after using such monstrous magic, he looked completely effortless…
The cadets behind us all had their mouths open.

At that time.

Again. Again.

Light footsteps were heard from behind Elia, who was in despair.
Elia turned her head and her eyes widened. Because she had someone who shouldn’t be here.

Taaak-.

She snapped her fingers, and the magical cannon that was rushing towards her, ready to erase her scarecrow from the world, disappeared.
Elia could not read any of her magical actions that had occurred in the meantime.
Instead, she ran to Im Sol without realizing it.

“Professor Lim Sol!”

“Elia?”

“I’m a professor… I, I…”

“… “I’m sitting there and resting.”

Ha.
Imsol sighed and stroked Elia’s back.
I’m a new professor, but I never thought I would be so shocked.
The wizarding society ended early, so I came right away to see my students, and the timing was good.

“Professor Lim Sol?”

On the other side of her, Lee Ho-yeon was seen waving her hand happily.
She is very grateful that she is welcomed like that… As a professor, Lim Sol noticed that the shoulders of the cadets behind Lee Ho-yeon were slumping.
Imsol slowly approached that place and slowly opened his mouth.

“Lee Ho-yeon.”

“Yes. “Professor Lim Sol.”

“… I should have done it in moderation. “What if I use that kind of magic here?”

Imsol disrupted the magic power still remaining in the air.
Looking at the traces, it appears that it has spread all the way to Macheon Palace.

“I controlled my strength enough to just destroy the scarecrow.”

“It wasn’t made to be destroyed in the first place. Since it’s a magic demonstration, you can just shoot a fireball.”

“They say practical sense is important. In the hope that everyone will see my magic and try harder…”

Im Sol looked at Lee Ho-yeon with her distrustful eyes, but she really thought that way.
What’s the point of bragging to the cadets?
Even if there are no demons, dungeons and gates are still dangerous places. The idea was to be a little more alert.

“… Was it a bit too much?”

“Huh.”

“Sorry…”

Imsol’s eyes became increasingly sharp, so he quickly lowered his tail.
Let’s admit what we have to admit. She may have been a little excited.
Unlike the writing class, which I had already been kicked out of, the magic practice was an opportunity to participate diligently in the class.
However, she overlooked the absence of Lim Sol. If Professor Lim Sol was there, he would have stopped me no matter what, but Professor Elia was in charge of today’s class.

“I’m also sorry to Professor Elia. “She tried hard, but I guess she was too fussy.”

“No no. No. Cadet Hoyeon Lee. I really should have acted more like a professor…”

After catching her breath for a moment, Elia opened her chest again.
She was so embarrassed, unlike herself.
Lee Ho-yeon is not a bad person, and she is a professor, and if she had said for sure, she would have definitely weakened the magic.
She felt she was inadequate as a professor.

“Lee Ho-yeon.”

“Yes. “Professor Lim Sol.”

“Starting tomorrow, don’t come to magic class. “You don’t need it anyway.”

“…”

At Im Sol’s words, Lee Ho-yeon opened her mouth with an expression that left her in the world.
She was kicked out here too. Is her relationship with Victoria Academy really over?

“Professor. “I want to graduate.”

“You’re taking a special class with me. All magic classes, whether written or practical, are replaced with that. “If you want to take a class, you can choose to take a liberal arts class or take a national class.”

“…”

Victoria Academy, the world’s best hunter education institution.
I can’t believe I took a national water class here.
I wondered who would take such a course, but it turns out it’s people like me.

“Everyone pay attention. That’s all about hitting the scarecrow. From now on, we’ll teach the magic in the same way as in a normal class, and I’ll point it out. Don’t think about Hoyeon Lee’s magic and use it with confidence. “It’s not you guys that are weird, it’s him that is weird.”

“…”

There are a lot of things I want to say… If I talk any more here, it will be a disruption to class. You should not interrupt class because of a topic that has been kicked out.
Hoyeon Lee quietly returned to Lucy and Rumi.

*

Imsol and Elia walked around the practice site and checked the magic of the cadets.
This is a class where each student uses the magic they are confident in and receives feedback from the professor.
Of course, Hoyeon Lee didn’t need to receive feedback, so she was watching Lucy and Rumi’s magic.

“Fire rain!”

Lucy’s magic exploded in the air, and a thousand flame arrows bloomed in the sky.
All of the numerous flame arrows pointed towards one person.

“Lu, rune shield!”

Bang- Bang- Bang-

At the same time, the blue barrier unfolds.
The shield containing Rumi’s power did not have a scratch even after blocking Lucy’s magic.
Lucy, who saw this, stamped her foot as if she was aggrieved.

“Nonsense! “Why doesn’t it break?”

“Originally, if the magic level is the same, defense is advantageous. “You two have a surprisingly perfect magic wavelength.”

“So I’ll never be able to beat Rumi for the rest of my life?”

“That’s not necessarily true. Even Rumi can’t do any significant damage to you. Lucy. This spell was good, but I don’t think there’s a need to focus on a lot of arrows…”

Hoyeon Lee recalled Lucy’s magic and pointed out what needed to be fixed.
The cadets around him also pricked up their ears and picked up any tips.
Of course, the professors’ comments are important, but there are not many opportunities to listen to the magical advice of the dreamy genius wizard Lee Ho-yeon.

“… Disciple. “What if I tell you not to go to class and you are in class?”

Lim Sol, who had finished class for the cadet next to her, looked at Lee Ho-yeon with dumbfounded eyes.
I recognize Lee Ho-yeon’s magic skills, so I don’t mind teaching her… Professor Elia behind her is sad as if her work was taken away from her, so she can’t leave her alone.

“Lucy. You go to Professor Elora. Hoyeon Lee, please catch Rumi.”

“Please take care of me… Mr. Hoyeon.”

At Im Sol’s words, Rumi came to Lee Ho-yeon’s side with all her might, and Lucy pouted her lips as if she was disappointed.

“Lucy. “Do you have any complaints?”

“Oh, nothing! “I will study hard from Professor Elia!”

While Lucy was receiving instruction from Professor Elia, Hoyeon Lee taught Rumi.
Rumi, who created a magic called Rune Shield, named after the rune barrier, laughed and focused on Lee Ho-yeon’s words.
It wasn’t a big deal, but it felt good because it felt like a special class for just the two of us.

After a while, Lucy, who had finished being taught by Professor Elia, approached.

“Whew. It’s so hard I’m dying. Rumi. Now switch with me!”

“What kind of shift is this? “We’re done, so if you’re done too, take a break.”

Ho-yeon Lee and Rumi were already resting, so she came next to her and sat on her chair.

“Ugh. It’s unfair. That’s right. After today’s special class, let’s go to the club together! “You said all the busy work is over, so you have a lot of time?!”

“Okay, okay. … Huh? But are you going to wait for me to teach class?”

“What do you mean, wait? “When it’s over, we’ll go together.”

“… ?”

“?”

Hoyeon Lee tilted her head.
There is something strange about the flow of conversation.
Could it be that what Lucy is talking about is a special class that I know of?

“Hoyeon, Lucy. “What are you two talking about?”

“No, um… Isn’t it a bit hard to wait for a special class? “You can go to the club room first.”

Hoyeon Lee’s special class is for middle school students.
There is no need for Lucy and Rumi to wait.

“We also have to take special classes, so how can we go first?”

“Huh?”

“In the afternoon, the entire student body attends your special class at Victoria Auditorium. “It’s about what I felt during the war against the Demon King and what Victoria Academy needs to do next.”

All students take special classes… ?
Hoyeon Lee didn’t properly recognize the information that came into her head and asked again.

“Lucy. Am I going to teach that class where all students gather? “I’m an instructor?”

“Of course. It was announced this morning too. “What if you didn’t know in the first place?”

“Notification? “I didn’t hear anything like that this morning.”

“You got a group message from the academy. You idiot.”

“I have my smartwatch blocked to everyone except people I know…”

“Are you saying you’re going to study hard at the academy on that topic?”

Seeing Lucy narrowing her eyes, Hoyeon Lee slowly turned her head.

“… “No, if you don’t do that, you’ll get thousands of calls and messages a day.”

Frankly, Victoria Academy also sends too many useless messages.
Starting with employment information, an introduction to the mindset of a cadet and the professors…
This is information that Lee Ho-yeon does not need at all.

Besides, Moon Soo-rin told me the really important things, so I didn’t have to figure it out myself.

‘I don’t think I heard anything like that from Surin.’

I should also stop by the student council president’s office.
You have to ask how it happened that way.
