Magical Genius With Quantum Magic

chapter 37



Admission Test

Leon’s fame was now hotter than ever.

But, ironically, such rumors of Leon had nothing to do with his magical abilities.

Arya, nicknamed the ‘snowflake that never blooms’ in the social world because she never smiles, laughed!

The guests who participated in the celebration were shocked by that beautiful smile and began to praise Leon, who made her smile.

Even the minstrels who heard the rumors made up and spread the song about him.

Arya, who is cursed by the devil and freezes everything she touches, was born after her mother died and even her emotions were frozen.

What was Leon’s feelings when he heard that song in the Royal Capital Square?

“Shall I kill you?”

Tina tilted her head as she approached Leon’s side in pain while wiping her face down and asked.

“Why? Not a single bad thing.”

“You see me as a nobleman of the Dawning. Even the expression “a nobleman” doesn’t match me, what? woman? Melting the hearts of snowflakes with a beautiful appearance like the morning sunlight?”

Tina covered her mouth and giggled as if it was funny to see Leon making a sound of woe.

“Still, thanks to that, I made my debut in the social world splendidly. And you need to have a little more confidence in your appearance.”

“What?”

“It looks like a very powerful weapon. Even people who cannot be conciliated with his superior magic skills are drawn to the master’s beautiful appearance and want to get closer.”

Leon thought, stroking his chin again at Tina’s words.

Indeed, Tina is right.

I’m not used to it, so I was just annoyed by the compliments on my appearance, but charisma and charm are concepts that go hand in hand.

‘Because it’s called a weapon.’

Leon looked at Veronica, who was quietly standing behind her.

A secret weapon that will grow into a witch of condemnation in the future.

Receiving such Leon’s gaze, Veronica shrugged her body as if in shock, then straightened her posture and bowed her head.

It had already been over a month since I started living with Veronica, but she was still struggling with Leon.

Yes, Veronica’s position is understandable.

Until just half a year ago, it was only natural that she, who was an ordinary girl from a commoner, would find it difficult to keep aristocrats.

Leon told him that because he was born a nobleman, he was not valuable, but Veronica, who has lived her whole life in a class society, cannot easily change her perception.

But other than that, Veronica’s appearance was already completed as a maid.

For the past three months, Veronica has been zealous for her maid classes, and at the same time she has been receiving swordsmanship training from Isaac.

You might be wondering why the Witch of Condemnation is training for swordsmanship.

‘The irony is that the witch of condemnation did not learn magic.’

The witch of condemnation did not use magic, only because it was so vicious as a witch.

Because the true power that the Witch of Condemnation awakened was the ‘Auror who burns magic’.

There was also a story that the auror looked like magic of the fire attribute, but Leo didn’t know for sure because he had not seen the scene in person.

However, I’ve only heard of stories that it was possible to survive and escape by tearing down hundreds of people alone if the wizard was an opponent.

“veronica. Are you ready for that?”

“Yes. master.”

Of course, even the witch of condemnation was nothing more than an ordinary maid for now.

When the single horn was covered by the hair ornaments used by maids to tidy their hair, Veronica was no different from an ordinary girl with brightly colored eyes.

After a while, when she left Leon’s room, the item she brought back was none other than the academy uniform.

Leon, who was now familiar with Veronica’s hand and changed into a school uniform, looked at himself in the mirror.

Indeed, it is an academy uniform that only accepts talented students.

Naturally, it is difficult for people who can discover their talents at the young age of 11 unless they are from noble families, so most of the students of the academy are children of noble families.

Of course, the school uniform had no choice but to pay attention to the material and design.

However, Leon, who was looking into the mirror, immediately caught his badge.

It was a badge that symbolized elementary school subjects.

The academy is divided into two faculties.

The Knights Faculty and the Magical Faculty.

Of course, Leon applied to the Department of Magic, and each department is further divided into elementary, middle, and high school.

After graduating from the academy after a total of 9 years of curriculum, 3 years for each subject, students from the Knights Faculty will receive the title of Knight, and the Magical Faculty will receive the title of Wizard.

Armed forces in this world are privileges that only those in power can enjoy.

This academy system was also one of those laws.

Also, a letter of recommendation from a noble family was required to enter the academy. Children of noble families can take the entrance exam only with the recommendation of their parents, whereas commoners have to overcome a barrier of status that cannot be overcome to enter the academy. because I did

Thus, if you acquire the title of knight or wizard, you get the status of a semi-noble, and you are given the right to summon and operate armed groups such as knights and wizards.

Leon’s starting line was there.

wizard title.

If you acquire it and be able to convene an armed group on your own, you will no longer have to depend on your family, and you will be able to create your own force.

‘At that time, we will have to recruit talented colleagues.’

From Leon’s point of view, the academy is not a place to study.

A site of talent discovery to recruit talented wizards.

In that sense, Leon remembered Arya’s birthday party.

‘There were quite a few geniuses who participated.’

Even Leon, who was busy rolling on the battlefield as a mage soldier, could recognize celebrities just by hearing their names.

Of course, that was before the regression.

Although they were still only 14-year-old children, they had acquired the information that the geniuses who would surely make a name for themselves in at least 10 years were the same age as Arya.

However, Leon and Arya are three years apart in age.

Then there was only one way.

skipping over.

Still, Leon had no intention of rotting at the academy for nine years.

Naturally, Leon had a skirmish in sight, but he didn’t think it was urgent, but he felt the need to advance the plan.

‘From the entrance exam, I do not hide my skills, but reveal them.’

Leon’s ability is clearly not at the level that he would stay in elementary school.

Of course, a person with good eyes would not be able to leave Leon in elementary school.

However, Leon was well aware that it was not an easy task.

At first glance, the academy may seem like a school that has nothing to do with politics, but since it is a school where the children of noble families attend, there will be no invisible struggles going on underneath.

Leon is a bastard.

In the case of Leon’s other siblings, even if the Parostel family does not support them, they can receive support from the maternal family, but Leon cannot expect such support from the family level.

If so, what Leon could do would be to prove his overwhelming genius to the point of ignoring all such conditions.

Leon smiled and looked at himself in the mirror.

* * *

A large number of students gathered at the exam site.

All of them are graceful and well-bred children.

Of course, it was the same with Leon.

Leon could never say that he grew up nicely, but at least when he looked at his appearance, he had a different presence than anyone else in this room.

However, it may not have been just because of such an atmosphere that Leon received attention from the students around him.

‘Hey, look. This is the insignia of the Marquise of Parostel.’

‘The famous Leon Farostel…?’

‘Dawning nobleman!’

It was not at all intentional for Leon, but Leon Farostel had already become a famous person who made a name for himself as a nobleman of Dawn.

But when you become famous, there are those who are jealous of it.

Some of the aristocratic children, who were exceptionally strong, covered their noses and frowned, fanning their hands as if they smelled.

“Wow! Where does the lowly smell of the common people come from?”

“What kind of nobleman at dawn is the subject of a bastard mixed with the blood of the common people.”

“Hey, leave it alone. Because he doesn’t have the skills, he’s not a big deal, making a name for himself by flirting with women in the social world. You need a footing to get on a horse, and you don’t have to decline to become a footstool yourself, right?”

Little laughter spread like ripples at the sight of the children having such an open, yellowish conversation.

Leon was originally associated with Arya, who was a famous person, and became famous as a nobleman of the Dawning, but rumors about Leon’s magical abilities are still not well known.

In the songs of the bards, it is also included that demons (of the family of immortality) that did not die even if killed appeared like a ray of dawn and slain like lightning…

‘It was such a false rumor that no one believed it.’

When Leon burst into laughter alone, his face frowned as if Leon’s reaction had touched the heart of the boy who had been walking on his feet.

“Magic Faculty students, please take a numbered ticket and wait for your turn.”

Leon’s application number was 77.

I didn’t need any luck to take the test anyway, but it was a number that made me feel good because good things are good.

The content of the test was simple.

It was to hit the target by deploying magic at the shooting range installed on one side of the gymnasium.

At a distance of 30 meters, there were 10 targets with a circular belt, at a distance of 60 meters, a log covered with armor, and at a distance of 100 meters, a target that emits light when it hits the head and heart of a golem wandering left and right. there was.

How quickly and accurately they hit those targets was the content of the test.

In addition, a target from 60 yards tested how much damage it could break through armor and damage logs, and a 100 yard golem tested its magic range and how accurately it could hit a moving target with magic. it was to

But most of the students didn’t even have to go there.

The superficial admission criteria revealed by Philo Academy was 1 circle, and it was because there were very few candidates who achieved that level at the young age of 11 in the first place.

“Flame!”

An examinee ignited only one flame after 10 seconds of casting and fired it at a target 30 meters away.

However, the speed of the flame was so slow that the expression of shooting it was not appropriate.

He had not yet reached the level of the 2nd circle, so he lacked the mental power to develop an ejection magic trick that shoots magic.

Thanks to this, the students had no choice but to directly manipulate the developed magic with their magic-sensitive ability to hit the target.

The test time given to such students is 100 seconds.

In the meantime, just hitting all 10 targets at a distance of 30 meters was quite a skill, and I couldn’t even try a target at a distance of 60 meters.

However, when people gather like this, there must be some who stand out among them.

“Exam number 66, forward!”

At the examiner’s instructions, the boy who was standing next to Leon, who was walking on a stool, glanced at Leon with a triumphant expression and stood in front of the shooting range.

And the magic that unfolds is the wind magic of the 2nd circle.

“Balance that governs the flow of power. Give me the wind.”

With the spell, a wind arrow began to form over his shoulder.

With chain casting that deploys multiple magic with one spell, whenever an arrow of wind is created, it is shot to knock down 10 targets in an instant.

Even a target at a distance of 60 meters succeeded in puncturing the armor, and even scratched the waist of a wandering golem from a distance of 100 meters.

Even the examiners, who had been in charge of the test without editorial, applauded his performance and praised his skills.

“Really, the son of the Sirius family. It was an honor to see Master Cron’s skills, which were well-known.”

Only then could Leon see the footstool boy’s family insignia.

Among the educational books of nobility that Leon had read, there was also a badge that symbolized the noble family of the Philo Kingdom, so there was no way Leon, who was memorizing it, was unaware of the insignia of the Duke Sirius family.

The only thing I didn’t realize until now was simply that I wasn’t interested in him.

Now, Leon’s attention was focused on the golems wandering 100 meters away.

‘No, it’s an automata to be precise.’

A golem refers to a magic doll handled by puppeteers, a type of wizard.

Usually wizards pair up with knights and earn casting time under the protection of the knights, but there were some wizards who tried to overcome such shortcomings.

One of those methods was to create a magic doll that was controlled by injecting magical power into clay or stone with a golem, and used it as a guardian to protect itself instead of a knight.

Among them, a golem called an automata was an expression for a self-moving magic doll.

Usually, when dealing with golems, wizards must directly control each golem’s actions.

Automata, on the other hand, can autonomously operate according to a very simple principle of action.

okay.

Like a robot equipped with artificial intelligence.

As Leon was thinking about the principle with curiosity, the surroundings suddenly became noisy.

When Cron Sirius returned to his original position, the children who had been with him from the beginning did not spare words of praise, ‘Really, the Duke of Sirius!’ and ‘Really, Master Cron!’.

And Leon’s turn came.

“Exam number 77, forward!”

As Leon moved to the shooting range, Cron muttered as if he had been waiting for this moment.

“I will watch with your own eyes how that famous nobleman of Dawn is capable.”

Apparently, Leon had been photographed by him.

Normally, if the master of the duke family said something like that, his face would turn blue and he would fall down.

Even the examiners of the academy are not in a position to notice.

But Leon was pretty good.

Because he didn’t even care about Leon in the first place.

“okay. I’m watching you.”

What kind of person is Leon Farostel?

At Leon’s remarks, Cron once again became furious, but Leon didn’t mind and moved to the shooting range.

And at the same time as the test tube’s signal, the magic was deployed.

The examiner marveled at the identity of the magic that appeared on Leon’s palm.

“Thunder magic? Is that also a silent window?”

Thunder magic is so powerful that it requires more complex and stronger magic response than other magics to deal with it.

It was because the understanding of lightning, that is, electricity, was still lacking in this world, so it was handled only with a simple idea.

Deploying such magic without chanting was like an unspoken demonstration suggesting that Leon had already reached the stage of maturity.

But Leon didn’t end there.

If you deploy the lightning arrow, the lightning arrow, developed as it is, with chain casting, it is easy to stitch together 10 targets one after another.

However, Leon intended to hit 10 targets simultaneously with one Lightning Arrow.

“Lightning Arrow!”

Don’t fall for it!

It splits the arrow of lightning that was shot out like lightning with magic response.

It often looked similar to Chain Lightning, a 3-circle electroencephalography.

However, the difference is that the Lightning Arrow is perfectly controlled through magic response, whereas Chain Lightning only randomly liberates the energy of thunder that cannot normally be controlled.

As if to prove it, the lightning arrow divided into 10 branches pierced the center of the target.

All 10 targets.

But before he was surprised, Leon was already developing another magic.

“Lightning Spear!”

This time, with true three-circle lightning magic, it not only pierced the armor wrapped around the log, but also completely penetrated the log.

But it was still too early to be surprised.

Leon was casting a 4-circle thunderbolt magic while stitching targets at 30 meters and 60 meters with Lightning Arrow and Lightning Spear.

Leon raised his finger to point to the sky, and the audience followed his fingertips and looked up to the sky.

What was witnessed there was a dark cloud that no one knew about.

“Thunder Strike!”

When Leon slammed his finger down, lightning fell from the dark cloud.

Gwagwagwang!

Due to its tremendous power, Automata threw away the lightning with the arm that caused the aura to dodge it.

‘Fun!’

When everyone underestimated Leon and was vigilant, only Automata was doing defensive and evasive maneuvers according to the level of the opponent according to the command given.

If Automata had been running at full power from the start, Cron Sirius’ Wind Arrow wouldn’t have swung his waist.

As a result, one of its arms fell off, and a red light lit on the target on its chest.

It means that damage equivalent to fatal wound has been applied to the heart.

However, the Thunder Strike that Leon prepared from the beginning was a fake.

‘This is the real thing.’

Leon raised his other hand and pointed it at Automata’s head and uttered a starter word.

“Halo Blast.”

Kwakwaqua—aah!

Automata, which had already consumed a significant portion of the Manastone output in the process of defending and avoiding Thunder Strike, was unable to move at Leon’s gesture and had no choice but to use the electron torrent.

Due to its immense power, the automata evaporated without a trace.

All the process up to this point took less than 20 seconds from the start of the test.

Leon shuddered as he looked around the audience in shock with their mouths wide open.

“Ah, sorry. It was a necessary item for the exam, but I smashed it without realizing it.”

The examiner had no choice but to open his mouth wide at the great sight.
