Surviving As A Mage In A Magic Academy [EN]: Chapter 847

Lee Han stared at Professor Kirmin with a suspicious look. The professor was staring out the window, his eyes unfocused, like he was miles away. Lee Han frowned, thinking the professor hadn’t heard a word he’d said.

Professor Kirmin blinked, then turned to Lee Han with a slight smile. “Huh? Oh, sorry, Wodanaz. What is it?”

Lee Han crossed his arms. “Were you even listening?”

“Of course!” Professor Kirmin chuckled softly. “Why would you think I wasn’t?” He taught Illusion Magic, after all, and hiding his thoughts and feelings was something he was very good at. “Anyway,” he continued, leaning forward slightly, “because of what happened earlier, you can now see souls, right?”

Lee Han nodded slowly. “Yes, Professor. That’s right. It wasn’t Professor Begreck’s fault.”

“Then you don’t need to take this class.”

“…Pardon?” Lee Han asked, surprised.

“This class is about learning to see souls in the first part of the year,” Professor Kirmin explained.

They learned various Illusion Magic spells and practiced them, but the main goal was to recognize the souls of other beings and their own souls.

“…Oh, so what do I do now?” Lee Han asked.

“You can do whatever you want. You don’t have to come to class.”

Lee Han was shocked by the professor’s words.

“No, still, not coming to class…” he mumbled.

“You come to class to learn, Wodanaz. What’s the point if you’ve already learned it? Why don’t you go to Professor Begreck and practice dueling a bit more?”

“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Lee Han replied flatly.

“It was a joke. Sorry,” Professor Kirmin said quickly, seeing Lee Han’s cold glare.

Even if he had all the time in the world, going to Professor Voladi to practice magical combat was not a good choice.

‘Is this a good thing?’ Lee Han wondered.

Once the initial shock wore off, Lee Han considered the offer. He had been surprised by the suggestion that he didn’t need to come to class, but the more free time Lee Han had, the better.

Of course, skipping one class wouldn’t suddenly make Lee Han relaxed and happy, but still…

‘It can’t hurt to have extra time,’ he thought.

“Professor, I’m still worried that I might miss something if I don’t come to class. I have to take the exams, too.”

“The exams are about recognizing souls anyway, so don’t worry about them. And missing something… Hmm.” Professor Kirmin tapped the desk, thinking.

He could skip the exams, but there were a few Illusion Magic spells taught during the lectures for soul recognition.

“First, take this book.” Professor Kirmin took out a small book, no bigger than his palm, from his gray vest pocket and unfolded it. The book rapidly grew in size and thickness.
