Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent

73 – Flan, Flan has appeared!

Kwaang─!

“Still…. Slow.”

Ice barriers, sparks, beams of light. Everything was smashed at once. The three students were all wet with sweat.

“Is this difficult? Just this.”

I tut and clicked my tongue.

The same no matter how many times I try. They still don’t know how to give strength to ‘purity’. The circuit kept leaning towards the ‘output’.

Habits are so scary. Also, if you don’t correct this, you won’t be able to pass the preliminary round of the subjugation system.

“Stop it.”

I interfered with the three circuits and forcibly stopped the manifestation. In the end, it seems that time should be allocated to theory as well.

“I overestimated you guys. Learn the theory first.”

Desks and chairs were created in front of the students. Everyone was embarrassed and sat down.

“It is a problem that arises because you have worked hard in your own way. Habits that have been caught are not easily changed.”

You must consider the things you have discovered while cultivating yourself as great secrets. It won’t be easy to throw it away.

“….”

But it’s probably my role to lead them to throw it away.

As soon as we found a problem, we immediately corrected the lecture method. There was no room for disappointment towards the students.

“I will approach from the beginning again.”

Water, fire, earth, wind…. The series of elements is very diverse, but if you dig into the essence, there is no difference in the end.

I want to teach three people this source.

“This is a very basic element.”

A sphere of non-attribute. Without any attributes, I slowly lifted it up into the air.

I don’t trust these guys this time.

Using the pure white space of the world as a blackboard, I wrote down the techniques, principles, and procedures in as much detail as possible in black.

It was a lecture like dealing with a newborn baby.

“Contrast with the elemental spells you drew, and memorize all the differences.”

It is not too late to understand after memorization.

No, it is better to prioritize memorization at these levels. Only then will there be times when the moment of understanding suddenly comes.

“Don’t think about applying attributes until the non-attribute sphere becomes transparent. It’s just a lump of muddy filth.”

However, while explaining this, he wrote down all the theories and formulas for adding attributes onto a non-attribute sphere.

… There will be no end to writing one letter at a time.

I started writing three letters at a time. Ice for Becky, fire for Trixie, light for Louise…. They kindly even divided the writing space.

I don’t have much time. Must be learned

“In the process of applying attributes, chastity can be increased one more time. You may not be able to master this yet, but you must be aware of the degree to which this phenomenon exists.”

The handwriting continued from 1:58 to 1:58.

“Strange.”

In terms of time in the world of Hwajung, by the time I finished writing, the students were already corpses.

“Strange.”

I looked at the things densely written in the air.

Nothing is wrong, and it couldn’t be more concise. You should consider it an honor to be able to listen to such a lecture.

“If I memorize everything, it will be 1:59.”

“… ?”

“Start.”

After leaving the assignment, he left the world of China. At this point, there was a person who had to be brought in.

◈

─Crash square

After Plan left, the training ground in the Huazhong world was filled with only the sound of memorizing spells.

[ Chastity Theory ]

[ Non-attribute Elemental Expression Theory ]

[ Property substitution theory ]

“… That’s ridiculous.”

Muttered Trixie.

She selected only what she needed from among the notes written in the air. Still, it’s a huge amount.

Even the content is not easy. There are only three books that are unfamiliar and difficult. As many as three volumes.

“It’s amazing.”

However, interest is piqued. That was curious.

Trixie was uncomfortable with rebuilding from the ground up and resisted. Not just her, but everyone else.

Because from the beginning, in other words, it means denying all the achievements and time accumulated so far.

However, Plan’s explanation is quite naive in itself.

It is concise and has only the essentials. As soon as you see it, you feel that there is no other best way, and rather, you decide to throw away the past.

“As expected….”

The abstention was intentional. The girl was sure.

That’s about it in theory, but in the confrontation with Trixie, there was no way that Plan could have been defeated purely by her skills.

The question grew even bigger. What is the purpose of flan?

But she shook her head.

“… First of all, memorize everything first.”

Now, it was urgent to rapidly improve her skills. Because she had to fulfill her role as the representative of the subjugation system, and meet Mr. Gyo-cha in a dignified manner.

Trixie slightly turned her head.

“….”

Lewis has a Louis-like appearance.

There is no movement except blinking. His eyes toward the notebook contained a tremendous passion for learning.

This time I turned my head to the other side.

“I tied it like this…. No, logic? What logic should I use… ? Ah…. Back to the front….”

Becky is rather rowdy.

He put his hand on his forehead, lowered it, let out a deep sigh, then narrowed his brows as if he didn’t understand. Even in the midst of doing so, the page managed to turn over.

Trixie is genuinely curious about Becky.

There must be a lot of pressure now that you have been selected as the representative, and you must be aware of public opinion, but even now it doesn’t seem like something is going well….

Still, aren’t you silently doing what Plan tells you to do?

“Becky.”

“Uh, huh?”

Becky hurriedly turns to Trixie. And he quickly added his words.

“Oh, sorry. Was it very noisy?”

“He works really hard.”

“Ah…. Huh…. Didn’t you want to look a little ugly?”

Becky scratched his head with a slightly intimidated face. Her low self-esteem is the exact opposite of Trixie.

“… Done Why are you working hard?”

Trixie wants to solve the mystery of her mother. He also wanted to become a genius and do a great job as a head of household.

Since the goals and reasons are all clear, I became curious about other people’s reasons.

Becky scratched her cheek with an embarrassed expression.

“Just…. I just don’t have a great reason. I do it because Plan tells me to….”

If you just do it because you are told to do it, then you wonder about the reason for that blind faith.

The first possibility that came to mind was one.

“Becky.”

“Huh?”

“You. Do you like flan?”

“… !”

Becky’s body hardens. Looking at it, he had a shocked face.

He fidgets with the pen he was holding in his hand a few times with a red face as if it would burst at any moment.

“Go, go, why are you asking me all of a sudden… ?”

“Answer.”

“That’s not the only reason I work hard!”

“Sure.”

Becky purses his lips fidgeting.

“I gave up trying to understand what Plan was up to. Because that’s not possible at my level. But….”

“But.”

“Now I know there is always a reason. Looking back, it’s something that helps me in the end…. Just something, flans are always great.”

Becky’s eyes gradually deepen. He seemed to be quietly retracing the past.

“It was different from the first time we met, because the first time I put my hand on the Agora board….”

Agora board.

As soon as she heard those five letters, Trixie’s eyes widened. Becky immediately put on an oops expression.

“Agora board?”

“Uh…. Uh? Oh no. I must have been confused!”

“You just said Agora board….”

But it was then.

“What a fuss.”

A stranger appeared in front of three people.

Silver hair reminiscent of moonlight, red eyes. It looks exactly like the president of Sapphore, but…. The ears were not pointed.

Trixie asked.

“Who are you?”

After hearing the question, the woman’s head slowly bends to one side.

The identity of the woman is none other than Maiev. She has just returned to the world of Huazhong after meeting in her void.

The tone is very cheeky, but I can’t help it. Maiev calmly opened her mouth.

“I am the master of this enchanted world. No, was it….”

“So, who are you?”

“….”

Looking at Trixie as she bites her, Maiev quietly strokes her lower lip.

If it hadn’t been for the slave stamp, if we had met outside, this human would have been torn limb from limb and hung in the air….

But now it’s just a meaningless assumption. She answered steadily as Plan ordered.

“Just…. It exists only within this world. I am.”

“Ah, summoned beast.”

Trixie was immediately convinced.

“….”

Maiev was devastated.

From noble mtl dot com

A situation where you have to be treated as a pet against young humans…. I don’t know how it happened.

But the next moment.

“… ?”

Becky stretched Maiev’s cheek.

“Wow…. I feel like this is really alive. Plans can summon things like this….”

“This, this, this… ?”

“The cheeks are really soft. Hey guys! Touch you too!”

Trixie scanned Maiev up and down her. Suddenly, she pokes the cheek opposite her with her index finger.

“… Sophisticated.”

“Ahahahaha…. Since it’s a female summons, I’ll just watch.”

Louise smiled brightly, and Maiev couldn’t stand her shock and shook her body.

Trixie suddenly held out her notebook to Maiev this time. It was a page transcribed from Plan’s handwriting.

“You. Do you know this?”

“… ?”

Maiev was ridiculous. However, because of the imprint on the back of her hand, she is in no position to even get angry.

“Haaa….”

She let out a deep sigh and looked at her papers countless times.

The content is clear. Even though it’s a completely different class from the black magic she uses, I know that much.

“It’s at a level that I can’t understand.”

“Oh, really?!”

Becky’s eyes twinkled. Immediately, she opens her own notebook and holds it out.

“Well then, please explain! I don’t understand this part at all… !”

“Umm~ Is it okay if I ask for a favor too?”

“I am here.”

Louise and Trixie also joined in.

“Ah.”

Maiev quietly closed her eyes. Her head is dizzy.

◈

The night before the preliminaries for the subjugation festival.

Sepia, head of the Ministry of Magic of the Marchen Ilbo, is still in the office.

It’s already a mess outside because of the preliminaries that will be held the next day.

Music is playing, firecrackers are exploding in the sky, a eve is held, a party is held…. No wonder. Because the scale of the subjugation is staggering.

From a small scale, the students of Merhen Academy to a large scale, even officials from the imperial family are interested.

It’s such an important event, so it wasn’t awkward at all to have people whose lives change in an instant during this period.

This is such an important time…. Sepia put her hand on her temple.

“I’m going crazy.”

[ Faculty of magic without countermeasures…. ‘Flan is missing’ ]

[ He shouted loudly and went to sleep in the dormitory…. What are you doing? ]

[ Why are there three representatives of the Faculty of Magic? ]

*There is a high probability that you couldn’t recruit one person.

[ ‘The empty cart is noisy’ ]

*This year’s Faculty of Magic, will it remain an empty cart?

Newspapers printed in the Faculty are pouring down like heavy rain. Even if he tried to refute, the report itself was impossible because Plan had disappeared.

He wasn’t even the only one who disappeared. All the representatives of the Faculty of Magic did not come out of the dormitory.

“What should I do with this? What to do with this What the hell are you thinking….”

Holding her head, Sepia rose from her seat.

All the newspapers were put in the trash can. She couldn’t sit in her office forever.

But then.

“Manager! Boss!”

The youngest reporter burst open the office door and stormed in. He had his eyes wide open.

“Yes. What could it be?”

“Flan, Flan has appeared!”

“… Yes?”

Sepia’s head tilted.

“… !”

And the next moment. She hurried toward the entrance.

“Are you finally here? How are you, how are you? Did you get some coverage? Or is there anything else confirmed?”

“Ah…. That is….”

The youngest reporter couldn’t follow his words and stomped his feet. Thanks to this, Sepia was about to burst her insides.

“Come on. Hurry! Don’t be intimidated!”

“Knight Faculty Ivan…. It’s Ivan.”

“Ivan? Suddenly, what kind of Ivan?”

Sepia’s expression was dumbfounded because she couldn’t understand the meaning. But she added the expression of the youngest reporter.

“Ivan, take Ivan….”

“Yes, yes.”

“I entered the dormitory….”

Sepia’s head tilts to her side.

No, it’s almost broken.

After a while, she narrowed her brows and asked again.

“… Yes?”
