Surviving As A Mage In A Magic Academy [EN]: Chapter 909

Fortunately, the boy from the Wodanaz family overcame his fear and strongly wished for the demigod hamster.

Plop!

The giant skeleton disappeared, and a giant hamster appeared in its place.

-Ham, hamster?!

-Is there even a Mountain-Destroying Hamster??

The giants were confused when a giant hamster tried to poke its head out of the black coffin.

The magical criminal hamster trapped in the cage sighed in relief and shouted.

-Good job. Concentrate! Keep him sustained and pour on the attacks!

Of course, being a hamster didn’t make the demigod weak.

Moreover, wasn’t that tyrant an artificial thought-form created to dominate the continent?

Still, the hamster form was better than the lich form.

-Get back in!

One of the giants swung his club hard and hit the hamster.

The demigod hamster staggered, making a sound like a landslide.

-Attack!

-Enemy of Wodanaz!

The giants relentlessly attacked the demigod hamster. When the giants, who usually acted docilely while tending sheep, showed their true strength, their destructive power was beyond imagination.

Nevertheless, the demigod hamster’s body continued to regenerate.

Even while being beaten, it was enough to make the giants flinch.

-What… what is this hamster!

-More terrifying than the sheep!

-Stop attacking.

-Hmph!

Even though the hamster warned them, the giant swung another big blow.

Then, the demigod hamster let out a sharp cry.

■■■■■■■■!

-M-My club!

-My club! I paid a fortune to have it crafted!

The giants screamed.

The clubs they were holding instantly withered and disappeared. It was as if hundreds of years had passed for them alone.

-Eek!

Even though their clubs had disappeared, the giants didn’t give up. They tore rocks from the mountains and threw them at the black coffin, and they uprooted giant trees and swung them.

-Stop it! You fools! The order and laws have changed!

The magical criminal hamster, not the demigod hamster, squeaked.

The cry that the demigod hamster had just made was not a simple cry.

It had altered the order and laws near that black coffin to suit itself!

Probably attack nullification and…

‘It can’t be just that!’

If it was the ability of a combat demigod, it was likely to be even more tricky.

Sure enough, the clothes the giants were wearing began to transform as if they were shackles.

-Ugh?

-Cough, cough!

-I told you to back off!

No matter how much the hamster in the cage squeaked, the giants wouldn’t listen. Instead, Lee Han shouted loudly, using his magic to make his voice stronger.

“Retreat! Retreat!”

-Retreat!

-We don’t retreat! We advance backwards!

The giants were wise. They didn’t recklessly charge at a strong enemy without any chance of winning.

“What is that?”

-Probably… probably a law of control… I need to see more to know for sure!

Not just nullifying attacks, but a law that forces enemies who attack him to kneel and turns them into slaves to use as an army.

It was a truly fraudulent ability.

“What nonsense… even after turning him into a hamster?!”

-He’s only using laws like that because he’s been turned into a hamster! If he were still a lich, he would have unleashed all sorts of terrible black magic. Imagine that guy using all the black magic of Gonadaltes you know!

Lee Han shuddered and gritted his teeth.

‘…Changing him to Gainando wouldn’t be very effective either.’

Whether it was a hamster or Gainando, if he could use the demigod’s laws, he was simply a cheating existence.

Just turning him into a hamster was enough to block many other abilities.

And Gainando would be more capable than a hamster…

-In front!

He was a beat late in reacting because he was worrying.

The demigod hamster, realizing that Lee Han was the leader of the giant group, began to focus on him.

“!!!”

Space warped, and Lee Han felt himself being pulled toward the black coffin floating in the air.

-He’s trying to swallow you! Get out!

Lee Han didn’t ask what would happen if he was swallowed by the demigod. He didn’t have time for that. Magic instinctively unfolded.

One was Wodanaz’s telekinesis. A powerful 5th circle magic blocked the attractive force and somehow stopped Lee Han.

And the other one was…

Bzzzt!

“Lightning, descend and manifest!”

Because he forcibly cast a spell that he hadn’t fully mastered, his mouth tasted strongly of blood, as if he had thrown a piece of iron into it.

‘Rebound!’

Forcibly casting a spell that was beyond one’s level placed a great burden on the mage himself, beyond simply failing.

Lee Han was usually lucky and talented, so he rarely pushed himself too hard. But now, he was paying the price for pushing too much.

But Lee Han couldn’t back down. Backing down in this situation would create a worse outcome than not doing anything at all.

A huge amount of magic swept around Lee Han like a storm.

Lee Han, who always carefully controlled his magic, now boldly radiated magic to prevent the rebound.

The wild lightning didn’t hurt Lee Han, but flew around him.

Having solved the first problem, Lee Han gritted his teeth. If he failed twice, it would be truly dangerous.

“…Lightning, descend and manifest!!”

His other hand turned into lightning.

It was lightning with a purpose, different from the lightning element he usually used.

Lee Han, the master of the magic, was feeling its meaning more clearly than anyone else.

Pierce and penetrate the enemy!

The bubbling power stretched out in an instant and headed towards the black coffin.

The magical criminal hamster trapped in the cage screamed at the powerful magic.

-I told you, the order and laws have changed!

“!”

Lee Han, whose vision had narrowed because he was focused on the attack, widened his eyes.

Come to think of it, in a situation where the demigod’s laws were defending, a hasty attack…

Crack!

The magic, Wodanaz’s Lightning Strike, pierced through the demigod hamster as it was.

The magical criminal hamster was the most surprised, more than Lee Han, who had cast the spell, or the demigod, who had been hit.

‘How!?’

Of course, the magic he had just shown was of such a high level that it was hard to believe he was a low-grade student at Einroguard.

At least 5th circle, and even there, to transform the nature of lightning and contain magic that is much stronger than it looks was an even higher level.

He had cast it while maintaining another 5th circle magic…

The hamster was an archmage, but he could pay his respects to an outstanding junior for this.

But the law was ruthless.

No matter how much this new mage showed great acrobatics and growth, the law did not change.

If the demigod had unfolded the laws of attack nullification and subjugation, it was impossible to overcome them.

But to overcome that and penetrate it?

‘Does that mean he broke through the law with just a 5th circle magic?!’

Since the opponent had changed the law with force, the way to counter it was simple.

You just had to change the law with force on this side too.

The problem was that a mage had to start from at least the microcosm to do that.

There was magic among high-level magic that changed the law by using the loopholes in the world without mobilizing the microcosm, but at least it wasn’t 5th circle.

To exert enough power to break through the law with just a 5th circle magic…!

-Stop attacking, Commander.

The demigod hamster seemed frustrated that Lee Han, who should be playing the role of commander, was attacking him.

Moreover, didn’t the attack just now penetrate even the defense made by the law for some reason?

“Who is your commander?”

Lee Han spat out blood and prepared the next magic.

Even though the damage disappeared, Lee Han still had endless magic. He was going to pour magic on him until his mind was tattered.

However, the demigod hamster was one step ahead of Lee Han.

Instead of fighting lightning he couldn’t dodge, the hamster changed his plan.

Lee Han, who had been close because he had cut through space, was now far away again.

And at the same time, the space between Lee Han and the demigod hamster geometrically transformed and distorted.

‘Aiming is…!’

Lee Han realized what the other party was up to.

If touching him would pierce the law and deal damage, then all he had to do was raise the difficulty of the surroundings so that he couldn’t even aim.

If Lee Han charged forward, he would twist the space to create distance, distance, and more distance…

Lee Han felt discouraged. The hamster was making it impossible to even aim.

‘They summon things like this in unit formations?’

At first, he thought the crazy clone was crazy, but now he thought that if he was given time, conquering the continent might really become a possible story.

He was so busy, he couldn’t even reverse summon one demigod who was still in the coffin, but what if other demigods appeared in addition…

“Lee Han, student!”

“!”

Lee Han was momentarily overwhelmed by the familiar voice of the troll hybrid professor.

Professor Garcia, Professor Voladi, and the Death Knights were flying in from afar.

“Are the other professors coming too?”

-Yes?

“…You didn’t realize this situation?”

-Ah! I understand now.

The Death Knight explained what Lee Han didn’t understand.

Even if something happened at Einroguard (for example, a demigod was summoned), the professors didn’t rush over right away.

In fact, it was the headmaster’s agents, the Death Knights, who stepped in at times like this.

Einroguard had so many problems that professors couldn’t come running every time something strong happened, or they would never teach.

The Death Knights would check and clean up, and then if it seemed difficult, a request for support would be sent to the professors.

“…The two of you came…!”

“I was worried about Lee Han, so I came just in case. Professor Baegreg is here too.”

“……”

Lee Han shuddered at the cold rules of Einroguard.

He thought he should change these rules, even if it meant making a protest later.

“That’s enough. Just the two of you are enough! There’s a reason why they say even many soldiers are not as good as a few strong people!”

“Lee Han, student. Is that blood on your lips?”

“…I think some potion splashed on me earlier. That’s not important right now!”

The two professors quickly exchanged glances. Professor Garcia sent a telepathic message with a worried look.

‘It seems like he’s overdoing it. Should we send him back to school?’

‘I understand.’

‘Yes? What do you mean?’

‘I’ll subdue him now, so Professor Garcia, take him back.’

‘Ah, no. I was talking about persuading him??’

Professor Voladi quietly shook his head.

If he was a disciple who would return if persuaded, he wouldn’t be here in the first place.

Professor Garcia couldn’t argue and was quiet for a moment.

Lee Han quickly explained the situation, unaware that the two professors were talking about a sinister surprise attack.

“The headmaster! Is crazy! About conquering the continent!”

…His words came out in a rush, making it hard to understand.

“The purpose has been reversed.”

“The headmaster’s clone is summoning a demigod to create an army.”

Fortunately, the two professors were smart. They understood very well even when Lee Han spoke unclearly.

“But if it’s the headmaster’s clone, shouldn’t he be able to sufficiently block or avoid the world’s resistance? Why is this happening?”

“There must have been confusion or agitation.”

“Could Lee Han’s influence have had a little bit of an effect?”

“Perhaps. An outstanding disciple also influences his teacher.”

Lee Han, feeling uneasy at the conversation between the two professors, asked in confusion.

“What did you just say?”

“It’s nothing. Lee Han, student. Just focus on reverse summoning the demigod.”

“So I was waiting for instructions…”
