Disguised As A Teacher In Magic Academy

Chapter 21 - Source code/Source Code (2)

“I will choose some students who take my classes well and teach them how to source code.”

As I said that, the students listened to my class without saying much.

Ding dong's. Ding dong's.

When I finished explaining the theory and simple method of releasing mana, the clock tower bell rang to mark the end of the class.

I heaved a sigh of relief in my heart, thinking that I had safely completed the class without any obstacles.

The student looks unsuspecting because I have explained the contents of the textbook appropriately and combined it with practical tips.

The first step was easy, so I could continue that atmosphere in the next class.

My college days are four hours a week.

Since there were a total of two classes per week divided by two hours, I had plenty of time until the next class.

When I was about to leave the classroom after putting on my coat, I could see some students staring at me as if they wanted to approach me but were hesitant about that.

I wondered why for a moment, but then I realized that I had missed something.

“Ah, for your information, I will not give you a task for the first day. Just go back to your daily activities and review the lessons for today."

"Yay!"

"Phew. That's a relief."

The students smiled brightly and rejoiced at my words.

Even the geniuses gathered in the Academy were the best students. Seeing them excited and burdened with one task, I realized that they were still children.

Well, no matter how strict I am in teaching them, I will not give them any assignments from day one.

Other professors besides me will give them assignments.

Usually, lecturers who give assignments from the first day of college will definitely be criticized throughout the semester.

As for the lesson, every bit of mercy I show them is based on some sort of calculation.

The more slander and complaints they have about other professors, the less criticism I have.

I packed the list of students on the podium and left the class. Even when I came out, the eyes of the disciples were still following me, but I naturally ignored them.

I was immersed in thoughts such as how I should proceed to the next class and how I could find out basic personal information about the 80 students taking my class.

Moreover, given that there was still some information that had not been revealed about the secret society, I had to make a move as quickly as possible.

'Whoa. It's real, right?'

Aidan, a freshman who entered Soren Academy that year, realized that he had actually come to Soren after listening to Ludger Chelysie's class.

'I vaguely thought it would be as ordinary as the other classes, but it turned out to be amazing.'

Aidan, who is from the countryside, is a commoner, but he is a young man who has a belief that he loves magic more than anyone else.

Thanks to the effort and luck he had built up so far, he had passed the examination to enter the Soeren academy, and he took his first class while dreaming of a prosperous future as a freshman.

Ludger Chelysie's lecture on the whole technique of casting spells.

To be honest, he did not have much hope.

When he first entered the class, he quietly listened to the other students' talks because the class he took was more talkative than he thought.

- There were actually a total of two magic casting classes, and between the two, this one was taught by fallen nobles.

Originally, he was a new professor who couldn't pass the entrance exam here, but he was lucky because there were five vacancies due to the professor who retired last year.

All the rumors about him were false and exaggerated.

It was clearly the talk of the aristocratic students who spoke ill of others and looked down on them.

However, Aidan, who had come to Leathervelk from the countryside, did not really doubt their words because he knew that they were great seniors and nobles.

'Is the professor named Ludger Chelysie really not that good?'

It was just a class he had chosen without much thought, so he regretted it for a reason.

But Aidan realizes how wrong his doubts are when Ludger shows up.

The man who flooded the classroom atmosphere with 80 students in it just by standing on the podium was like a soldier facing a fierce war.

And what happened then made Aidan even more surprised.

After conversing with the female senior about the impossibility of shortening the time span of casting spells, she introduced the spell technique.

As soon as he witnessed the spell that Ludger Chelysie called the source code, Aidan felt the blood in his body racing.

It was a shock that made him feel like there was an explosion blazing in front of them.

The light of knowledge that emerges when he clearly witnesses a mystery never before witnessed and a revolutionary moment that expands his perspective to the wider world.

It seemed like an exaggerated line, but at least Aidan felt that way.

When she was a child who knew nothing, there was once a wandering witch who showed her magic.

The first spell the wandering magician showed was only first-rate magic, and when he recalled it, his spell techniques were imperfect and crude.

At that time, Aidan thought his appearance was very cool.

From then on, he was taught by wandering magicians in learning magic and continuing on his own, but nothing beat the sensation he felt upon witnessing magic for the first time.

Still, he remembered that learning magic itself was a lot of fun.

Thanks to his love of magic and unexpected talent for magic, Aidan advanced faster as time went on. Thus, he was able to enter the Sorcery Academy through fierce competition.

He took his first class thinking that this place might quench his thirst for magic and open up a new world before him.

He finally witnessed something truly amazing.

'Professor Ludger Chelysie is truly an extraordinary person!'

Aidan already thought he was amazing from his first impression of Ludger, but it was real.

He had been showing off a real new spell that did not exist in the world, not just fake nonsense.

Aidan was so happy to attend that class that he could not hide his excitement.

"Hgm."

ordinary people…

The blatant voice of contempt directed at him sounded from the next chair.

When he turned his head, a male student who seemed to be from the same year was looking at him with folded arms.

His face was handsome, but he looked a bit greasy, probably because of his split blonde hair that accentuated his forehead.

"This is why we shouldn't have ordinary people. He was amazed just because he saw something like that."

"Huh? Did you say that to me?"

"Who else is there besides you?"

Aidan then looked around. Now that the majority of the students had already left the classroom, not many people were left.

"ah! So you're talking to me!"

Due to his innocent reaction that went against his expectations, the face of the aristocratic male student who had just triggered the dispute frowned.

"You. Are you insulting me now?"

"What's? Insult you? It's impossible."

Aidan smiled awkwardly and tried to say that he did not intend to insult her at all, but the person in front of him was already very upset at thinking he had been insulted.

"How dare you underestimate me, Jevan, the first descendant of Baron Felio?"

Aidan was bathed in cold sweat. It still seemed that there was no hope for him in many ways even if he wanted to let this pass well.

'What am I doing?'

As soon as Aidan pondered how he should cope with the situation, someone came to his aid.

"If you're from the Felio Baronage, isn't that the family that lives in the place closest to the Empire's border?"

"What...what the hell is this?! Who're you?"

It was the sky blue haired boy whose height was shorter than the others that helped Aidan.

Jevan Felio looked at the boy and sneered.

"It's still better than the fact that a foolish baron's son passed the Soeren exam."

"What?! How dare you insult the Felio family?"

As Jevan gritted his teeth and was about to fill up the mana, Leo the sky blue haired boy did not lose his smile.

"You must pay for your words and actions for insulting a noble ..."

"Try to do it."

"what..what?"

"try to. Let's see what will happen if you cast a spell to attack us here."

Jevan was stunned by Leo's confident words.

Jevan thought ordinary people would bow their heads obediently if he was intimidating enough.

"Do you think your family background makes you superior to us? Wake up. If you cause a little commotion here, you can't even call yourself a noble. Didn't you get such a notice before you came here?"

"You, you...!"

"Because I have nothing to say, just shut your mouth if you don't know what else to do but glare at me like that. And check the situation before you even raise your voice. Can't you look around?"

Hearing Leo's words, Jevan realizes that there are still some students left in the classroom. Among them, there were also those noble children of higher status whom he did not dare to see.

"Hee, heek! Just wait and see!"

Jevan looked at Aidan as if he was about to kill him before leaving the classroom.

Aidan pondered what he should do with the situation.

However, at that moment, his priority was to thank that person for helping him.

"Thank you for helping me. I'm Aidan."

"I'm Leo. Ah, and you don't have to thank me. I just stepped in because I'm sick of seeing him act like a noble."

"You're a very nice person, aren't you?"

"… How did you understand my words just now?"

Leo looked at Aidan as if he was a strange person and shook his head.

"Well, whatever. I'm leaving now."

"ah! I'm going with you."

"Where do you think I'm going?"

"Are you not going to take the next class? The thing that you hold in your hand, it's for the Alchemy class of the Embodiment specialty, right? This is also my next class after this one."

"… Tsk. Do whatever you want."

Leo spoke harshly, but he did not expel Aidan or refuse Aidan's offer to accompany him. Aidan feels Leo's way of talking is a little strange and he's a good person.

Leo suddenly opened his mouth while watching Aidan who was packing his textbooks for the next class.

"You'd better go around without too much luggage like that."

"Huh? likewhat?"

"It's clear about being the hickhead who showed off the book, and being an ordinary person and I know you haven't learned magic properly. Whatever it is, you show it off too much."

"Oh, so? Excuse me. I don't know much about that."

"Don't forget, it's the School of Sorren. This place is full of great people."

"The extraordinary people? Ah, I think I found out because I just saw Professor Chelysie."

Leo sighed hearing Aidan's stunned response. There seems to be a lot to explain to this poor fellow.

"Listen. Since you've already taken classes, you need to know how this place works. And you also have to be careful with certain students."

"Specific student?"

"There are students who have outstanding positions within the School. Right now, our first year is considered to be ignorant because we have just entered, but it won't work if we proceed to the second year."

The most representative example is Flora Lumos.

"Flora Lumos, second-year student. I don't expect him to take the same class as us, but you have to be careful with him."

"Why?"

"There were rumors that she had a bad personality. They said that the sudden resignation of the professor in charge of the magic casting class last year was largely due to his influence. To be honest, I thought it would be like that again this time..."

Leo also remembered the class Ludger Chelyise. The breakthrough source code spell he showed was truly amazing.

That Flora Lumos had even lost in the first meeting without being able to say anything.

However, he had not expected Flora Lumos to retreat just because of that. Instead, there was a chance that his spark of anger would be released into the others.

"So you better avoid it as much as possible."

"Is there anyone else?"

"Of course there is. Someone who came from the most noble lineage of the Exile empire."

"Ah, I also heard the rumor. They say there's a royal princess among second-year students, right?"

"3rd daughter, Elendil von Exileon. He was extremely noble, and the Emperor doted on him, that was why he was able to enter this place. Of course, it's not good for us as ordinary people to get involved with him."

"Ah, that man."

Aidan recalled a woman with hair that resembled a thread of gold.

Blonde hair was not a rare thing, but there was only one person capable of exuding such glory through his blonde hair.

"And lastly, Freuden Wolburg."

“If it's Wolburg, you mean Wolburg's? One of the three ducal families.

"Do you think there are other Wolburgs in the Empire? Freuden, the eldest son of the Duke of Wolburg. He was the one who led the largest faction in his second year. It was a top-class faction consisting only of nobles."

"Fraction.. top class."

"They are people who see ordinary people like us no different from roadside insects, so it is better not to get involved with them. Fortunately, Freuden did not take this class. For information, the idiot who chose to fight with you a while ago seemed to belong to that faction."

"That's inevitable. Is there anyone else?"

"...You've just been stepped on, but you're curious about someone else? Should I say you're brave enough or stupid enough?"

Leo doesn't know what kind of person Aidan is, but at least Leo is sure he's not a bad or rotten person.

"There are a few more."

"Oh really? Who're they?"

"I'll tell you later, on the road."

"okay! Do you want to eat with me later?"

"What's? Why should I?"

Aidan and Leo left the class while chatting.

Without knowing that one of the remaining students in the class was paying attention to them.

'Hm. Is this the private professor's office?'

I felt a strange premonition on the doorstep of a room called the professor's office.

Perhaps because of that, Soren, the new professor was given a fairly large personal space.

The sign at the entrance also bears the name Ludger Chelysie.

'Let's go in first.'

I wanted to know what the inside was like, so I decided to check it out.

I opened the door and entered the professor's office.

And I had no choice but to be surprised to see the guests who arrived there first.

"Oh my goodness, Mr. Ludger. Come here." Come here."

One of the people I need to watch out for…

The Chief of the Academy of Soren.
