Surviving as an Academy Black Magician

The first shot hit lightly.

It was a natural result.

Mana management is the field I am most confident in. Even I was a soldier. Most soldiers will never hold a handgun in their entire military career, but I was different.

I remember shooting pistols almost quarterly due to a special position that was different from others.

And the result is always in full bloom.

Even the officers of the unit, who were full of kkondae skills, were admiring and recommended a professional sergeant.

‘Devil-like bastards.’

bang! bang! bang!

Sensing it, I pressed the trigger without stopping.

7 hits in a row.

I could hear people groaning behind me.

‘From now on, it’s real.’

Slowly, I feel the pistol heat up.

He said he was able to control his magic, but overheating was unavoidable. Now, mana had to be controlled in consideration of output.

at that time.

One idea came to my mind.

‘Enhancement of conductivity.’

Purple magic bloomed softly in the hand holding the pistol.

bang!

‘As expected.’

The overheated gun forcibly increased the output it produced by itself through strengthening magic.

He did not directly adjust the machine, but simply changed it to a property that was more effective with mana.

The more I pulled the trigger, the faster the taste went, but this was enough.

bang! bang!

bang! bang! bang!

Without stopping to breathe, he pulled the trigger in succession.

Because I was completely immersed in the shooting, I couldn’t tell if there was no sound around me or if the surrounding area had become quiet.

I fired 19 magic bullets.

Before I knew it, I had one last shot left.

‘If I match this, it will be in full bloom.’

However, the moment I saw the target, I realized why there had been no gunners in full force.

‘I haven’t seen this guy like that, but he’s a net swindler.’

It wasn’t enough to play with the gun, the last target I hit with 19 shots was moving at a tremendous speed.

left. right. stomach. under.

diagonal.

They even moved freely without any rules.

“What, what! How the hell do you fit that? Isn’t this a complete scam?”

“Shh! Quiet. What if I say it out loud?”

“no! Isn’t it strange to see you? If the target moves that fast, I won’t be able to hit it even if Grandpa marksman comes.”

“… It is. It’s a bit harsh.”

As the people talking in the back said, it didn’t seem like a target made to hit.

A gruesome level of difficulty where you can feel the true malice of the creator.

But I had no intention of giving up.

‘Strengthening eyesight.’

To be honest, I thought I would be able to hit it without using strengthening magic, but I chose safety bread.

I wanted to do something to flatten the nose of the maker who made this.

Still, I was a full-time shooter.

“Whoa… .”

The moment the target comes to the center after slowly controlling your breathing.

I pulled the trigger.

-bang!

“… … .”

The target was the same.

The onlookers in the back began to mumble. What is this? I was relieved of tension and suddenly felt tired.

“what… ? Is it a failure after all?”

“So it is. how do you fit that he’s a pure cheater here!”

“… no. Look closely over there.”

“Can’t you see anything?”

“Above the target!”

“crazy! Everyone, look at those eyes!”

“where? where?”

The onlookers who confirmed the target belatedly started screaming in excitement as one.

“eye… ! Your eyes are pierced!”

“Oh oh! Really. It’s so natural that I didn’t notice, but there’s a hole in the target’s right eye! How could that be?”

“uuu!!!”

As they said, the target was in the shape of a human face, but it was hit in the eye, so it was not noticeable from a distance. At first, even I, who had fired, thought I had missed.

‘I aimed for the center, but it missed a bit.’

I got out of my seat and approached the owner.

“Can I take that?”

The owner looked at me with a puzzled face and replied belatedly.

“… That, let it be.”

“thank you.”

“for a moment. Do you have any intention of learning to shoot in earnest? It’s a national loss for someone like you to never learn to shoot! Among the people I know, there is an excellent marksman, so tell him… .”

“Thank you for your words, but it’s okay.”

When I turned my back to take the first prize, the onlookers cheered.

Among them were the students of the academy.

“Isn’t that Seil Sieghardt? Seil Sieghart, who was assigned to the S class this time!”

“That hero’s family… ? I heard that you screwed up the entrance exam and got assigned to Class S instead of Class A. Is that just a rumor?”

“Of course it’s a rumor! What time are you talking about? It’s that Sieghart! Recently, rumors have been circulating that S class will soon become the strongest class in the year!”

“Ah, that’s not too drastic… ? Still, it’s class A… .”

“Can’t you see that? Why would a person with that level of mana management ability be assigned to the S class? And that old man said In 20 years of business, not a single person has reached full bloom.”

“but… … . It makes no sense. How the hell did you hit that target? Are humans right? The face is also good. Bloodlines are good too. good at fighting He’s good at shooting too. Damn, the world isn’t fair… .”

After taking the first prize, I and my party made our way through the onlookers.

I felt a little bewildered because I didn’t know I would get so much attention.

Charlotte muttered all the way through the crowd with a face that still didn’t understand.

“No way… . It can’t be… . As far as the ability to use magical power, I have the upper hand… .”

Seeing this, Frey comforted Charlotte with a friendly smile.

“charlotte. You don’t have to die too full. Uncle did that. Hitting 13 out of 20 is amazing. Everyone makes mistakes at first.”

Eden, who was next to him, nodded.

“sure. 13 shots out of 20 is good enough. Charlotte!”

Upon hearing that, Charlotte’s expression twisted like a demon.

“commons! If you bring up the subject of shooting one more time, I think I will burn you!”

“You do too much! I’m just comforting… … .”

“Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!”

From noble mtl dot com

Charlotte spewed fire from both hands and charged at Eden, and Eden, feeling threatened, quickly ran away.

“Eh. There is not a single quiet day.”

“hahahaha. Doesn’t it look nice though?”

Contrary to the expression she had seen in the mansion, she looked very happy now.

Seeing her like that, I suddenly remembered what happened with Layla.

‘… … It would be a shock to find out that Layla was a spy.’

“Definitely fun.”

“hahahaha. right? Me too. It’s the first time I’ve ever seen Charlotte talk like this with anyone other than me. When I was first assigned to the S class, I was very depressed… Not anymore! I think I’m happy to be in the same class as Geile, Eden, and other classmates. We will continue to fight so that we can make our S class a better class!”

Seeing her stop talking and suddenly shouting “fighting” made me laugh.

“hahahaha. yes. Let’s fight.”

“Zile! Look over there, over there! Doesn’t it look delicious?”

The place she pointed to was a street vendor selling snacks.

No matter how you look at it, it was Tanghulu that the children around it were holding in their hands and sucking on one side.

‘Selling Tanghulu… ?’

I rubbed my eyes and looked again, but it was definitely Tanghulu.

“Let’s go eat that!”

Watching Frey speak with an innocent childlike face, I couldn’t muster up the courage to refuse.

“I see.”

Before hearing my answer, she was already ordering from a street vendor.

“Welcome!”

Frey looked at the menu and said.

“Give me two of these!”

“How are you going to make it spicy? There are stages 1 through 5.”

Frey looked at me and asked.

“How many steps would you like? I will live!”

‘What Tanghulu can adjust the spiciness… … ? What is the identity… ?’

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to go with step 5. I was curious because I usually like spicy food.

“Well then, please go to step 5.”

“Two outlines of five steps!”

“Yeah~”

While the stall owner was preparing, I asked Frey.

“Frey. What is this name?”

“ah… Is this your first time seeing Zile? This candy is called Furutang. It is made by processing flame lizard’s magic stone, so the taste is very delicious!”

The bizarre naming and ingredients.

I felt somehow ominous.

“Come on, two Colonels of Furutang!”

“thank you.”

Frey handed me a red candy called Furutang. I bit off the candy without hesitation.

Spicy and fire that spreads in the mouth at the same time.

‘Mr X… . what’s this… ? Why are you paying for something like this?’

It was hot and spicy with a candy theme. Also very.

It was spicier than any food I had ever eaten in my life. It was even hot there, so it tasted like death.

It must have been developed for torture, not food made for human consumption.

Frey, who was sucking on a piece of candy next to him, asked with a happy smile.

“It’s a bit spicy, but it’s more delicious than you think, right? I guess you like spicy too?”

“… Big hum. I like it, but it’s a lot spicier than I thought.”

“Originally, you eat it for its taste.”

She looked genuinely happy.

okay.

It’s okay if you like it… .

I’m sorry but I can’t eat any more.

‘You have to throw it away. Sorry Frey.’

We walked through the academy with furutangs in our hands.

The academy itself was very large, and since it was a festival, there were endless things to see around.

Among them, the most eye-catching was the ropeless bungee jumping.

The content was to jump down recklessly without a rope from a height that seemed to be enough for the 15th floor of the apartment.

There was something like a huge whirlpool at the point of fall, and it seemed to have a role in making it jump again using wind-type magic.

“Kkeuiyaaa!”

The scream of the man who had just jumped echoed like an echo.

Are you enjoying it? Are you suffering?

Either way, it just seemed crazy.

Although there are magicians who play the role of safety guards around them, they will die as soon as they do.

‘What kind of human head did such an idea come from?’

Frey, who was watching the scene, murmured.

“Oh, does that look interesting?”

“That one?”

“yes! Because I can’t use magic, I don’t have a chance to fly.”

“… … I respect your personal opinion, but what about next? The line looks pretty long too… .”

“ah… Would that be so?”

It is normal for humans to not be able to fly.

at that time. A boy of about 15 years old tugged on my collar. I turned my head and looked at the girl.

“mister. I know a fortune teller, would you like to go fortune-telling?”

“dot… … ?”

“yes! It’s run by a very brave astrologer. 50% discount if you come with the pretty sister next to you! how is it?”

A bewildered Frey murmured.

“yes… pretty sister… ?”

It wasn’t just Frey who was taken aback.

‘You recognized that Frey was a woman? Do you have a good feeling?’

It was an undeniable fact that Frey was obviously pretty, but she had an artifact that caused cognitive impairment.

But when the boy saw Frey, he obviously called him ‘sister’.

“… … .”

“Zile! How about we stop by there once?”

“I don’t normally believe in divination or things like that… .”

“Ah, it’s just for fun! Just once. yes?”

It was the first time she had asked me so earnestly, so I couldn’t refuse.

“… … If you feel weird, come out.”

“lol. thank you!”

For a moment, it seemed as if he saw the words ‘Caught a Hogu’ on the boy’s face.

“You won’t regret it. Come over here, both of you!”

We walked after the boy. After passing several street vendors and entering the alleyway, the boy stopped walking.

“Here.”

old tent.

[A fortune teller run by the world’s best astrologer]

A suspicious sign hanging above it.

Unlike other street vendors, it was located in a very remote corner.

Me and Frey faced each other at the same time.

“… … .”

“… … .”

“no way. It’s not a strange place, so trust me and come in.”

The boy opened the tent first and went inside. After hesitating for a while, we finally went inside.

‘Could something happen in the middle of the academy?’

The inside of the tent was wider than expected. Candles were lit on either side, and an old man in a turban-like hat was looking at us in the middle. But somehow I got used to it.

“Come, guys. Travelers.”

this voice.

It’s a voice I’ve heard a lot.

I got closer and looked at him carefully. cried the boy who had brought us.

“Cow, guest! Don’t get too close to the astrologer!”

for a moment.

“… old man?”

“huh?”
