Surviving as a Villain at the Academy

62 – Teacher Asti’s Magic Classroom.

Asti stood in front of me wearing some academy professor’s uniform.

“…… “What are those clothes?”

“Academy professor uniform. “It was made with magic.”

“Why a professor’s uniform all of a sudden?”

“You want me to teach you magic? “There is an outfit that goes well with every job.”

“Oh, yes…” ….”

I laughed out loud. That playful, yet slightly lively attitude seemed quite happy to teach me magic.

“You can look forward to today. I told you a little bit last time, but today it will be on a different level. “I will make you a great wizard.”

“A great wizard… …. Isn’t it too grandiose? “In the first place, most of my skills are based on the power you gave me.”

“So, he’s an archmage. “Even if you have half my strength, you should be superior to a human archmage, Prah.”

“I guess so.”

“Okay? That means my standard is high. If you don’t meet the standard…….”

“What if I can’t?”

Asti smiled slightly.

“I will punish you.”

Be a punishment. But, why isn’t it scary?

Anyway, it was necessary to prepare well. Because that was what I wanted to learn in the first place.

Really surprisingly, I was able to learn the magic taught by Asti more easily than I thought. Simply put, Asti’s teaching skills were truly outstanding.

To be honest, he seemed to teach several times better than the academy magic professor. But. Is it natural that magic professors think of their students based on their own standards?

These are people who think that what is natural to them is natural to students. Of course, the classes are bound to be difficult and difficult.

If you don’t intend to explain theories that students don’t even understand in an easy way and just tell them to memorize them, how will the class proceed properly?

There are bound to be many students who are dissatisfied with magic classes because they just say what they want to say and leave.

This time of learning directly from Asti was much more valuable than that time.

I first received the magic eye from Asti, and from that moment on, the speed at which I acquired magic power was astounding.

If you know the magic trick, it is no problem to use the magic spell according to the magic trick……

Because of that, I was able to roughly learn the magic I originally wanted to learn, except for mental magic. Something like flight magic or stealth magic.

“You learn quickly and well!”

Asti had a smile on her face. I was also in a good mood because the progress was progressing quite quickly, so I smiled slightly.

“It’s thanks to the magic eye. “Isn’t this a scam?”

“Wouldn’t that be enough to be called a high-ranking devil?”

“That’s right. Anyway…… “Is mental magic next?”

“That’s right. Mental magic, however, has a slightly different concept. “You have to approach it in a completely different way.”

“Another way?”

“Okay. Mental magic doesn’t work like magic.”

“I know that much.”

Mental magic is different from other general magic. Since it is a magic that literally interferes with the mind of any target, it is not done through a simple technique.

All that is needed for mental magic is the user’s magical power and mental power.

Possessing mental power strong enough to intervene in the opponent’s mind was the most important element required for mental magic.

“Listen carefully, Prah. The most important thing in mental magic is to push magical power into the opponent’s head. From there, you must use your mental power to overwhelm the opponent’s spirit.”

“So…… “Are you saying I’m putting pressure on the other person’s mind with my mental power?”

“Exactly. So I’ll just tell you how to do it. If you know how, you can do it. “Because you have the same magic eye as me.”

She smiled.

“Okay then…… Should I just lightly experiment as a user? “I’m not doing anything special.”

“But there is no problem?”

“Yes. No problem. “If you just harvest your magic power, the object will return to its original state.”

“I see.”

“Usually, it becomes a problem because you deploy mental magic and do not recover the magic power. “As long as you strictly follow it, there will be no problem.”

I nodded to her words.

“First of all, these are the basic precautions…… How do you use mental magic? It’s simple, infiltrate your magic into the other person’s head and hope.”

What are you asking for?

“What should I hope for?”

“I want to subjugate this person’s spirit. You know that magic is a power that comes from desire. So, you put your desire into magical energy and infiltrate the other person’s mind.”

“From there, it’s a mental battle.”

“That’s right. “First of all, let’s call someone who uses it.”

And a while later, a person appeared in my room.

“Hey…… “Did you call me?”

As soon as she appeared, I immediately infiltrated her magic into her head. Of course, desperately hoping to subdue her spirit.

After a while, her eyes became blank.

…… Was it this easy?

“What do you think? “It’s easy because you know how, right?”

“After subduing the spirit, is it okay to breathe another wind into the magic power?”

“That’s right. “I know.”

“I just hit him…… Anyway, I knew how to do it, so it was okay. “It’s so quick to cook that it’s almost mind-boggling.”

“I told you so. “If you put your mind to it, you can become an archmage in no time.”

Now I can finally feel the words that I couldn’t really feel. She was right. Perhaps, I was underestimating the power granted to me now.

It’s just because I can’t play in the second half. Because without Asti, Prah was nothing more than a small child.

But, is that really the case? Is Prah’s talent really lacking?

Perhaps they were confining Prah’s talent to the frame of the original work and tailoring it however they wanted?

The flow of the original work has already been damaged, and my skills have improved considerably. Maybe, now, I can keep up with Ruslan’s growth rate. Because I was not simply relying on Asti’s power, but was seeking my own growth through Asti’s power. Unlike the original Prah.

But I kept ignoring it.

Because it’s Prah’s body and his skills, it won’t work.

But, is that really true?

I realized something. It can change. I dismissed Prach’s talent as a genius, but what was his body like when I actually experienced it firsthand?

His skills were able to fully adapt to his body strengthened by Asti’s magical power. Some people’s bodies may collapse from sudden force, but Prah’s body, and my body now, has adapted to the sudden force.

Because of that, I was able to achieve significant success in the Behemoth subjugation battle.

You can become a great wizard. That was tantamount to saying that I could become anything.

There was no need to disparage Prah’s talent or my own. No matter how much power they received from Asti, I knew very well the people who were destroyed because they could not properly handle the power they received.

Original work? It is now very far from the original. There was no need to sing the original, the original song forever.

From the moment we decided not to exclude Lina and Nea, everything changed.

I suddenly started laughing. Okay. Isn’t it a bit much to give up without even trying?

You can’t just chase after Ruslan forever, right?

Of course, it wasn’t that he didn’t help Ruslan. But, at least I should be able to organize what happened around me. After all, Ruslan has only one body, and he was able to save the world with the help of many colleagues.

I will never be his colleague, but…… Still.

At least I can be a hidden helper to this guy. It’s also a helper who plays a pretty big role.

“As expected, you are the best. Thank you, Asti.”

I said that and grabbed Asti’s hand.

“Uh, huh? “What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”

“No, I realized something thanks to you.”

“I don’t know what I realized…… “Give me your hands.”

“Oh, did I hold on too tightly? Sorry.”

“No, it’s not that I didn’t like it, it’s just… ….”

She erased the confident smile she had just had and rolled her eyes.

* * *

I disarmed the mental magic and sent the user wondering why he was here outside.

Of course, of course she couldn’t remember what had just happened. Because I erased it on purpose. Really anything is possible.

This is not an all-purpose magic that will always succeed. But at least, I will be able to subdue a target with lower mental power than me. Things will become easier in many ways in the future.

“Asti.”

“Why, Prah?”

“I want to learn other magic, is that possible?”

“Of course! What kind of magic should I teach you first?”

“Auxiliary magic is also auxiliary magic, but I think magic that produces high firepower at close range would be good as well. “I guess the people I’ll be dealing with will show all kinds of extraordinary abilities.”

“That’s not difficult. If I have you, you will be able to learn it easily. “You don’t have a wall of wizards now.”

“Magic eye, and…… It must be thanks to the magical power I received from you. “Ordinary wizards suffer from the limitations of their magic power and their own insufficient magic management skills, but this does not apply to me.”

“That’s right. To be honest, you still can’t use the power I gave you properly. Let’s start by controlling the magic power in detail. “Because you learn quickly, you will be able to increase your magical knowledge quickly.”

“I’m sorry for not being able to use that great power properly.”

“What is there to be sorry about? To be honest, it’s amazing that he’s still fine even after receiving my power. Oh, and I heard you’ll learn swordsmanship from the knight commander soon? Aren’t you going to save the world, not Ruslan?”

“Well. “I don’t know about that.”

I would have denied it outright before, but not now. Because I thought it might be possible.

“You’re not denying it, are you?”

And Asti seemed to have noticed that too, and smiled.
