The room was quiet. Sophia swallowed her saliva and looked at Deron.

He was gently stirring something in his teacup. What it was was invisible to Sophia’s eyes.

After a while, Deron put down the teacup slowly.

The teacup contained the flesh with something yellowish.

“This… ?”

“It’s milk tea. Let me inhale.”

She knew it was a citron.

Because when it was cold in my hometown Gladic, I used to eat until I got bored.

Food from my hometown that I have never tried since coming to the academy.

She carefully took the citron tea and sipped it.

“… !”

“It wouldn’t be hot. Why?”

As he said, the citron tea was not hot. No, rather, just the temperature she likes.

So Sophia was a little perplexed.

It felt as if Deron knew exactly what flavor she liked.

‘no way… .’

Sophia glanced at Deron, sipping a citron tea.

He was sitting in the chair next to the bed, sipping the same citron tea as her.

“Fortunately, the effect of the elixir seems to revolve right away. I see the complexion turn.”

“Elixir? Maybe you gave me an elixir?”

Deron nodded his head. Sophia opened her mouth wide.

“Elixir isn’t easy to obtain, but you said you gave it to me?”

“Anyway, it is a product that will not be effective even if I eat it.”

Deron spoke calmly, but even the meaning of those words was not light.

Sophia checked her body. Mana has risen dramatically.

Most of the fatigue that weighed on the whole body also disappeared, and the mood became clear.

If I ate this elixir and it didn’t work, it means how much mana Deron has.

Sophia couldn’t catch her.

At the same time, a feeling of inferiority enveloped her heart.

While she struggles in place, Deron has already gone far.

Obvious. Obviously the start wasn’t that far away.

Deron’s talent is superior to Sophia’s.

Recognizing that fact, Sophia did not accept it.

She knows that she can’t take it too.

Sophia bit her lip. I was annoyed with myself.

“thank you.”

That anger was also reflected in his tone of voice. She pulled off the blanket and stood up from her seat.

Deron just stared at him.

He didn’t say anything. Despite knowing that Sophia is being annoyed unnecessarily.

Deron’s black eyes continued to stare at her.

Sophia didn’t want to receive any more attention, so she left quickly.

**

Sophia went to a huge tree inside the academy.

A tree that stands out even for the first time sits on the edge of the academy.

The summer sun is hot. The heat burns the flesh and makes people irritable.

But under the tree it was different. The leaves growing between the long branches blocked the sunlight.

A cool breeze sometimes blows under the trees.

So, this was the shelter of the academy that those in the acquaintance knew.

The breeze under the shade was cool, so Sophia would always come to this place to practice her magic.

As the vacation approaches, most of the visitors leave, and now Sofia is the only one visiting this tree.

Others enjoy the holidays in their own way, but she doesn’t.

There is no need to go back home. Sophia’s parents were sure to get her to work.

There are neither wizards nor knights in the countryside.

Of course, there is no person with magical knowledge, so even if she goes, it will not help her growth.

Had it not been for Uncle Tom, she would not have come to the Iliad Academy.

Uncle Tom, who sells goods with luggage in every village, is the only wizard who enters the village.

Such a wizard recognized her talent.

Sophia drew a magic circle. Muyoungchang wasn’t the problem.

She can’t even sing proper magic right now.

Uncle Tom called her a genius.

They said they didn’t expect such a genius to appear in the countryside, so they had to send them to the Iliad Academy right away.

Her parents were reluctant to say that the capital of the empire was a dangerous place, but in Sophia’s eyes, the capital of the empire was a treasure island full of all kinds of wealth.

breakage.

lightning strikes Mana is messed up, and mana is ignoring her control.

It was soon that the wizard could not control his mana.

“profit!”

It means you can’t use magic.

She gasped for breath and stared into the air.

The magic circle is broken in front of you. Remnants of mana were scattered in the air and gradually disappeared.

The capital of the empire, which she thought was a treasure island, was different from what she thought.

The reality was cruel. Her talent was not exceptional in the imperial capital.

The academy was overflowing with people who were better than her.

That, she was sure of in the ranking match.

Adele. Commoners like Sofia. A person who has been in the spotlight by defeating the instructor from the first entrance test.

The magic didn’t work in front of her, and Sophia was defeated mercilessly.

In the face of an inexcusable, complete defeat, she was frustrated.

Maybe that’s why my parents stopped me, I thought.

Sophia looked up. Light was seeping through the leaves.

Now I can’t even use magic properly.

Even though I got such an elixir and ate it.

“I was here.”

Then there is a voice. The owner of the room who escaped as if escaping a while ago.

Deron Phylasia.

Sophia deliberately avoided Deron’s gaze. The more I looked at those black eyes, the more my heart became bitter.

He slowly walked over to Sophia and asked.

“Why are you doing this? Wasn’t he practicing magic?”

“… … .”

“Did I come here and stop practicing? If so, I’ll leave your seat.”

Sophia glared at Deron, who continued to speak.

He was the benefactor who gave the elixir and served citron tea.

I know I shouldn’t be treated like this.

Nevertheless, the little girl’s stroke. A feeling of inferiority makes Sophia stare at Deron.

“I don’t think that’s the case.”

Deron smiled and snapped his fingers. At the same time, the singing begins.

What is implemented is a simple second-level magic.

“Wind Whip”

The magic that unfolded from his hand struck the bush and passed.

Grasses are floating in the air.

It is a clean, uncluttered chant. Deron can use magic despite being a swordsman.

That must be his talent.

Sophia opened her mouth.

“Why are you showing me that?”

I can use magic, but Deron Phylasia doesn’t make fun of it that you can’t use it.

Even if he doesn’t, his very existence will make most people feel hopeless.

Geniuses don’t understand generals. It means that even the second-level magic that he chants for granted has to be implemented with difficulty for Beom-jae.

“Do you remember how the magic was implemented?”

“What? Why is it all of a sudden… .”

“I asked if you remembered.”

Looking at Sophia, Deron asked repeatedly.

“Do you remember how the magic was implemented? Third question.”

“Singing, unfolding, projecting.”

Sophia finally answered Deron’s question.

It wasn’t impossible to answer. The basics and foundations of magic.

As a wizard, of course, it was the way he had to protect.

“So why is this… ?”

“Sing magic.”

Deron moved his hand lightly. It moves mana. The first step in realizing magic is the chanting.

“It unfolds its shape.”

Mana, which was moving, spewed out of his hand and took the form of a whip.

The second step is development.

“Finally, project the deployed magic.”

The whip embodied in the air moves. The target is the ground. A whip made of wind struck the ground.

The third step, projection.

It’s a surprisingly neat way of unfolding magic.

However, Sophia’s eyes are trembling.

“how… ?”

“I made it clear. After that, you have to interpret it for yourself.”

Deron looked at Sophia for a moment and then left.

Sophia doesn’t even think to catch Deron, and just looks at the place where his magic is sung.

Second level magic.

“Wind Whip”

There are no traces left at the place where the whip was embodied.

As if the implemented whip was ‘canceled’ in the middle.

**

“It’s a little tight this time.”

I wiped the blood from my mouth. It’s not the blood from the Magi.

Simply, the side effect of collecting too much mana at once.

However, despite this, I succeeded in following it clumsily.

‘Sophia’s organs.’

reverse acid

Sophia’s own way of unraveling the unfolded magic again.

Originally, you would realize it yourself after the story unfolds more than you do now, but there is no reason to question that now.

Passion is born of lack.

She lacked enough. Because I’ve seen a lot of overwhelming talent.

The problem is that I’ve seen too many.

Deron’s talent, Agnes, Adele, up to that one.

Talents that will dominate an era are gathered in the academy.

It is not unreasonable to be discouraged.

So I made a bunch.

What I did was not reverse calculation, but fae.

By ignoring the magic around the already chanted magic, it neutralizes the magic.

High-ranking magic will not be able to even try, and this alone consumes a lot of mana, so it looks like it is simply boasting about the amount of mana.

‘Sophia must have seen it differently.’

magic inverse. What I have shown will be reconstructed again in her hands, and will be reborn as a true reverse calculation.

Sophia is a wizard who runs along the road without paying any attention to anything she sees.

You gave me an elixir, and my heart must have been turned to the opposite side.

Now is the time to grow again.

Even to save Professor Akdin,

Her inversion is essential.

My hands trembled. This is because the mana consumption was higher than expected.

You should never do this in such an ignorant way.

With that in mind, I headed to a shelter for those who took a break.

Now, slowly, I had to attack the dungeon.

“What is that?”

But. What I heard as soon as I entered the club room.

“It happened. There is no way I can stop it.”

It was news of the runaway of his classmate, Crebiton, and the cancellation of the dungeon.
