I Possessed the Heroine’s Teacher

Magic, a product of imagination that cannot be used in reality, is one of the famous attractions that come to mind when thinking about fantasy, along with dragons. In reality, magic is just a word used to describe extraordinary skills or phenomena, and there are no records of its use except in myths.

However, the game I was playing, Dragnity Fantasy 2, was a VR game that provided a highly realistic experience. It even allowed me to feel the sensation of gathering power and controlling its range.

Therefore, I was also familiar with the sensation of magic. I gathered power by making my hands tingle and recited spells. Then, I paid the appropriate amount of mana for the magic. Calculating the range and distance in my head was also part of the process. All of this was based on descriptions from the guidebook and short stories.

“Earth, rise.”

The earth that Iris and I were standing on rose like a flying saucer. Irina, concerned about our safety, cast a magic spell that temporarily made our bodies transparent using water and mist to create a mirage. As the earth rose, we flew towards the bandits’ burning base. The wind brushed against my cheeks, and I imagined myself as Sun Wukong riding on a cloud. However, since it wasn’t a cloud, I should call it a Earth Cloud.

If I continued to cast spells from the air, it would be easy to massacre the bandits. But that wouldn’t do. These bandits had to serve as sacrifices for Iris’s practical experience.

“Iris, do you like high places?”

“No, I don’t particularly like them, Master.”

“Then, to accommodate you, I’ll take you down to a lower place.”

“What?”

Just as a lion throws its cubs off a cliff, I had to push Iris off this Earth Cloud. But if a lion throws its cubs off a cliff, it’s just killing its own children, not making them stronger. Unlike the lion, I wanted to make Iris stronger, not just feed my own desires. So, instead of saying, ‘A lion throws its cubs off a cliff,’ I should say, ‘Werner pushes his disciple off an Earth Cloud.’

I saw Iris’s eyes filled with resentment as she called me Master. Sorry, Iris, you have to fall from here.

With a thud, about five bandits gathered around Iris. It was natural for them to gather around her since she had suddenly fallen from the sky. They might even think of Iris as Sita, the girl who fell from the sky(Wife of Rama(avatar of Vishnu), Hindu Mytology).

“Wind, become a prison.”

A massive wind prison formed around Iris and the five bandits. If anyone touched the wall of wind, their hand would become a hamburger patty.

Look, one of the bandits tried to leave, but as soon as he touched the wall, he became Shank. The bandit had evolved into a pirate, changing his attribute to water.

“From now on, kill each other. Only the last survivor can leave.”

Iris wouldn’t lose to these trash. After all, whose daughter is she… She’s the daughter of Zig, who fought the Demon King alone in the final battle and defeated him. Iris inherited his talent, so there was no way she could lose to these trash.

As I observed the battle royale, with everyone aiming their weapons at each other, I decided to insure Iris in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

I whispered a spell that only Iris could hear.

“Wind, protect this child.”

Butterfly-shaped wind spirits emerged from my fingertips and formed a wind armor around Iris’s body. This was to block any fatal attacks. Some might criticize me for being too cowardly, but these bandits were extremely evil. They didn’t deserve human rights or a fair fight. I just needed to eliminate them by any means necessary.

So, I continued to manipulate the Earth Cloud and headed towards a cave a little further from the bandits’ base. As expected, the real boss of the DLC quest was here.

When I arrived, the entrance to the cave was blocked, as I had anticipated. A massive stone door stood in front of me, boasting its grandeur. I didn’t want to use violent means, so I decided to knock on the door, following the customs of civilized people.

Knock, knock, knock!

I knocked on the door but there was no response. The spell ‘Open Sesame’ didn’t work either, so I had no choice but to use the only method I knew.

Even though the stone wall was magically reinforced, it was still just a crude mass of magic. It seemed that a light attribute barrier had been placed on the stone wall to prevent it from opening.

If I had complex techniques like magic cancellation or barrier interpretation, I could have perfectly opened the stone door. These techniques were delicate and precise, like picking locks or safes.

However, I chose the FBI method instead of the locksmith method.

“Lightning teeth, bite and break.”

There’s no door that can’t be opened by the FBI’s ‘FBI OPEN UP!’ method. Those teachers could easily break down the gates of the Demon King’s castle.

A massive lightning tooth shattered the stone wall, and dust filled the air, making the cave’s interior visible. The presence of magic lights on the cave walls confirmed that the boss was inside.

I decided to enter the cave by brushing my palm against the wall. Surprisingly, the rough cave wall was satisfying to touch. As I brushed past the wall, I could see the bandits guarding the cave.

As soon as they saw me, they drew their weapons and charged at me. This was the proper way to act. It would have been awkward if they had said something like, ‘Who are you?’ or ‘Do you know where you are?’ or ‘Get out before I kill you!’ Breaking down the stone door and entering was enough to confirm that I was an intruder.

I had to respond appropriately to their proper behavior. I grabbed the wrist of the bandit who was closest to me and twisted it, breaking it and throwing his weapon away. I had a lot of experience dealing with enemies like this, so it was like eating cold porridge. The ‘education’ I received as a child was useful in situations like this. Indeed, humans are animals that learn. A child raised by wolves and acting like a wolf can’t be called a human.

I had to subdue the rest of them with magic. After all, if a magician only uses martial arts, isn’t he just a monk?

“Lightning, crawl like a snake.”

Lightning-shaped snakes emerged from my fingertips and wrapped around the other bandits. After using it, I realized that lightning magic was the most convenient. Fire magic has the risk of causing fires, and wind and water magic can cause collapses when used indoors. Other attributes also have their drawbacks, but lightning magic is safe from fires and convenient to use in narrow spaces if controlled properly.

Now I understand why Ash prefers Pikachu. Pikachu is invincible, and lightning magic is divine. Lightning has always been depicted as the power of the gods, and no water or wind can compete with it.

And Zeus helped me before too, during my tryst with Camellia. With the Thunder God on my side, what could I be afraid of?

Accompanied by my friend Zeus, I ventured deeper into the cave. The boss that Iris was supposed to fight was a difficult one, but I had to fight it instead. It wasn’t because of a sense of responsibility to not let my disciple fight a difficult opponent, but because I was aiming for the exclusive reward from the DLC.

At the innermost part of the cave, I saw the boss from the DLC, whom I had defeated many times. It was a shabby-looking magician with a scruffy beard. He was the leader of the bandits, but he wasn’t the type who would summon a book and steal others’ abilities(Chrollo Lucilfer, Phantom Troupe’s Leader – HunterxHunter). He was just a pathetic magician who had been kicked out of the magic tower. Despite his despicable personality, he was skilled, and it was quite challenging to avoid his ice magic in the game.

The magician, upon seeing me, opened his mouth.

“Who are you, and how did you get here? You seem to be a skilled adventurer, considering you made it past my subordinates.”

I was wearing a robe, so he couldn’t recognize me. Not many magicians knew my face anyway.

“I have some business with you.”

Even though he was a lowlife, he was a skilled magician. This wasn’t a fight I could joke around with, so I had to choose a surefire strategy. My sexual mentor, Zeus, agreed with this strategy. Indeed, he was the father of the gods, and our minds were in sync.

“You’re just a lowly adventurer trying to steal my treasure. Get out of here. I am a member of the Black Round Table…”

“Lightning teeth, bite and break.”

The first strike is the best strategy, whether it’s a duel between swordsmen or magicians.

I could smell the pungent odor of blood and the scent of flesh cooking from the electric current. As I smelled it, I thought to myself,

I want to drink beer with some fried chicken.
