Talent Swallowing Magician Chapter 1

Talent Swallowed Mage

Mervinger's shame

"Are you really having a good life at the academy?"

"That's right, my sister too. I'm already twenty-two. I'm no longer a child, so stop worrying. I also got 1st place in the department in this written test."

"Then I'm happy. Eat well and…!」

"Sister! my friends called me I will call you again next time."

「Beware of the lateness…!丄

Beep this –

Elric could barely breathe after seeing his sister's face disappear through the noise over and over again.

Seriously, I'm really worried about it now and then.

Elric's mind was confused as the image of my older sister, who was full of worries, was still vividly on my face as I was communicating with the crystal ball.

Contrary to how loud he was, he didn't enjoy the academy life so much.

Because I couldn't send it.

"All communications are over. The fee is 312 silvers."

"Please withdraw from the designated account."

I don't have much money left now. For the time being, I have to fill it with baguettes again. With that in mind, Elric left the communication station.

The sun was exceptionally bright today, and my eyes were dazzled.

"I never said again that I might return to my hometown soon… …

Elric walked towards the dormitory while shading his hand with his right hand.

throughout the walk.

His steps were heavy.

'Finally, again… …

Elric looked at the report card on the bulletin board and closed his eyes tightly.

There were many A+ grades, but the word 'paid' was all that caught his eye.

It was already the fourth. which has been adjudicated.

According to the rules of the Usden Academy, the 4th suspension was an expulsion.

'Damn! Who knows because they want to be paid!'

Of course, like other academies, pay and expulsion at the Funny Academy was not a frequent event, but it was not a rare event.

But most of them are.

They were nothing more than immature bastards who only believed in their talents or came in with the support of a strong family.

Unlike them, Elric Mervinger belonged to the academic zeal, who always studied until the very end in the library.

It could have been that I was lacquering my face, but I was proud of myself for being quite smart.

It was to the extent that I enjoyed reading old papers that not only my classmates, but also lecturers could not easily organize.

The proof was that he had always received perfect marks in writing and theory.

In addition, the affinity to detect mana and the ability to control and manipulate it were also very good.

In other words, from theory to the field of magic, he was born with a talent that any aspiring wizard would covet.

But.

That was all.

'Damn it, I'm desperate…!'

What would you do if you had a deep understanding and knowledge of magic?

Also, what would you do if you knew how to detect and control it?

The fact that the most important cohesion is not achieved at all.

Elric sucked the mana in the air into his body, and it was impossible to do the Circle work to engrave it into his heart.

This was because most of the ki-hyeol that had to flow mana was cut off by nature.

His advisor described this as 'arteriosclerosis'.

An abnormal constitution that is born in one in ten million people.

Born with a clear brain, but

It is said that the body is a rare disease that can only be weak.

'If I had known earlier, would the result have been different?'

In fact, until he entered the academy, Elric was unaware that he had a rare constitution.

In the first place, magic is a science in which everything is a waste of money.

He was only a duke, but there was no way that a fallen family, whose property was all owned by a house that was now being demolished, could support Elric.

Thanks to you, Elric has been with me since childhood.

He had to lay the foundations of magic only by self-education.

In the process, it is impossible to do a physical examination that requires an astronomical amount.

Still, Elric didn't worry too much about this in the meantime.

No, I didn't feel the need to do the test in the first place.

Until his downfall, his family was one of the most prestigious families who left countless large and large footprints in the field of witchcraft from generation to generation.

that the family history will disappear so easily

was not even thought of.

No, to be honest, it was a disaster caused by the door because it was overflowing.

'The magician (Demon Doctor) also said that surgery is impossible now because I am too old.'

Elric's mind became complicated when he remembered the moment when he received a notice of acceptance from the academy one day and wept together with his sister.

'Do I really have to end it like this and go back to my hometown?'

I have been staying at the 4-year academy for 7 years now.

All the dreams and hopes I had at that time.

state of being shattered.

It was all because of that, Elric's face was so stiff as he walked.

Although there are seasonal semesters and additional test systems to save failing students, it was impossible to avoid being paid until all the grades in the practical field received F-s.

After all, practice was much more important than theory for wizards.

"That person…?"

"Huh. That's him."

"I heard that the dean has recommended you expel."

On the way back to the dormitory, Elric found two other girls looking at him somewhere and shuddering, but he just ignored them.

Because there was no time to worry about that at all now.

Besides, I'm used to such gazes and gossip anyway.

"A person like that is the grandson of the first president of our school…

"Therefore. It's a shame for the Mervinger family, a shame."

"How far the hell is the 'Magic Myeongmun (Devils path)' going to fall?"

But Elric had to pause along the way.

It doesn't matter what you say about yourself, but talking about your family like this was just annoying.

"Hey. You guys are first-year physics and magic students, aren't you?"

When Elric suddenly looked at them, the female students stood up straight.

It was then that they realized that their voices were louder than they thought.

Still, 'the shame of the Mervinger' does it

One person brazenly came forward thinking about what he could do to do Cozy.

"Well, by the way…?"

"Isn't Sean one of your assistant professors? He is the closest to me among my classmates."

"...I"

"… … I"

In an instant, the faces of the two female students grew tired of blue.

Elric threw a smirk on his face.

"I think it's because I'm getting older, and there are quite a few kids who are already taking elite courses among my friends."

The academy was famous for the strict order between professors and cadets, as many of the old apprenticeship-style cultures still remain.

It goes without saying, but the assistant professor also had that much power.

"So, what are your names?"

"Oh, let's go! It's stellar, really."

The two female students left behind, covering their chests with their hands, hoping that Elric might see their nameplates.

it happened His face was flushed red.

Elric only made a sad expression on his face and didn't bother to hold onto them. Anyway, it was you who got tired anyway.

However, the statue standing in the middle of the stairs leading to the main building of the academy in the distance seemed to be looking at me, so I turned my head slightly.

He walked back to the dormitory.

as if nothing had happened.

The hallway leading to the third floor of the dormitory.

Whoa!

Elric had to scream at the shock that hit the back of the head.

"Oh, sir! who… …!"

"Ah? What is Mr. Oh? Have you been selling my name again?"

Elric didn't turn his head back with an irritated expression on his face, but immediately opened his eyes wide.

"Who is this? Isn't it Sean, love for your classmates, love for country?"

"Damn, very. did i tell you last time? Stop harassing juniors with my name. Huh?"

Sean, as always, was nagging.

Unlike Elric, he was wearing a blue robe that symbolized the assistant professor, so the attention and attention of many cadets passing through the hallway was inevitable, but Sean didn't seem to care at all.

Of course, it was the same with Elric.

"Okay. I knew it. Our Sean, God

It looks like you've sharpened a lot, would you like to go outside to cool off and get some air?"

Sean had a face that was completely dissatisfied with El Rick, who was trying to move on.

Then.

"Eww! I'd rather die than get sick."

As if he had given up soon, he sighed and moved to the open-air cafe on the first floor with Elric.

and.

"Damn you bastard."

Sean is between the rising steam.

Looking at Elric who looked like a, his impression came up and he distorted the rock.

Still, just looking at that guy's face made me feel embarrassed.

"What makes a person so mean? Have you ever been on that day?"

"Really?"

"Huh. Why do you think you're going to die like that? Smile. Laugh and live and sleep. Yes?"

tat

Sean clicked his tongue, convinced. As long as you stay friends with him, you won't be able to win a fight for the rest of your life.

"Are you very busy these days?"

"Aren't you busy? Even though Lee Hyung-nim has the letter 'Jo' in front of him, he has the title of professor, right?"

"But. That's why you need to have successful friends."

Elric was genuinely happy as if it were his job.

Unlike the other surrounding motives.

So, Sean had no choice but to look at El Rick with a bitter gaze.

In fact, unlike Elric, Sean has a runny nose not only in the central political world, but also in the tower.

It was the self-restraint of Kwon Moon-se who said that he was waking up.

In addition, I graduated from the second position, became the youngest member of the National Research Association, and took an elite course called professor appointment.

He was walking the opposite path to Elric, who was even described as a shame.

I wonder if there are people who say 'parallel lines running side by side at both extremes' with such Elric and Sean.

Still, Sean did not care about such public opinion and did not let go of his relationship with Elric.

"But you said you were very busy? Why did you come? It doesn't seem like they came here simply because they sold their name."

It's because I look like someone else, so I'm quick to notice.

With that thought in mind, Sean took a stack of papers from his bag and threw it in front of Elric.

"I want to show you this."

"What?"

Elric confided the cookie he had just been eating into his mouth and grabbed the papers.

-「Diamond Dragon, Plan for Shinark's Nest Exploration」

Diamond Dragon?

It was the first name I had ever heard of Elric.

The species name, of course, did not even come up with a similar name in the scientific name.

Could it be a newly discovered sub-polyp?

Elric looked at Sean, wondering why he was giving this to him.

Sean nodded, as if nothing special.

"This is an ancient dragon that has been newly classified by academia, and there is a place where it was predicted that there would be a nest. I want you to join the expedition there too."

Ancient Dragons!

It is now extinct, but the nest of the elder dragon, the origin of magic, has been discovered?

Elric jumped up from his seat and quickly scanned the documents.

If Sean's words were true, depending on the outcome of the expedition, there might be an opportunity to obtain a huge relic.

No, aside from that, it could have been an excuse to avoid expulsion.

like that.

Elric narrowed his eyebrows and thought about something quietly for a while.

By the time the hot teacup, from which the smoke was rising, cooled.

Elric, who was speechless, opened his mouth.

"Hey."

"Why?"

"The 3rd Law of the Mana Stream. Tell me."

"From high to low, from hot to cold, from wide to narrow. What are you asking?"

"Yes?"

Frequently asked questions and answers common to beginners in magic.

In an instant, one of Elric's eyebrows twitched.

"But there will be a nest here? It doesn't make sense."
