The Reincarnated Person Became a Professor at the Academy

The Reincarnated Person Became A Professor At The Academy 21

21 – Are you really any different from them?

Before entering class.

I checked the roster.

Starting with Yoo Eun-chae, then Nam Hye-rin, who I briefly taught Nam Gung’s swordsmanship to.

And…

“Professors Abel and Alves.”

Why are these two here?

“I would call it privilege.”

“Well, you could call it privilege.”

This is a lecture that I specially conduct.

Just by listening to it, you can improve to a considerable level.

“Oh, is that so?”

“Yes.”

Of course, it’s based on the standard of those who have followed it.

But still, it won’t be lost on most of those people.

“That level is remarkable.”

Profound.

One who has reached the realm of the unmanned.

In terms of martial prowess, one who has attained the pinnacle.

In terms of magical proficiency, one who has reached the fifth circle.

Even they would easily be defeated.

“Hmm.”

“Why?”

“If the level of the class is that high, should I have chosen a more challenging path?”

“Never mind.”

After all, the standards here were lacking.

No, it’s not just a matter of falling behind. It was much worse than anticipated.

“Damn bastards.”

The seven-colored mausoleum.

In my second life, I should have recognized them when they coveted my research achievements.

As if they would only consider my research as the criterion for ‘passing.’

“Well, it’s going to be quite a shock.”

Even if my actions were deemed radical.

The empire’s most powerful mage, known as the Annihilator, eliminated all the imperial hexagonal mausoleums in no time.

Finally, when he killed the demon king, he unequivocally surpassed the Annihilator’s realm.

Well, that’s not important right now.

“So, how are we going to conduct the class?”

“Fundamentals.”

“Fundamentals, huh? But aren’t the ones here already well-versed in the basics?”

“Only at that level?”

Abel scoffed, looking at him.

The fact that even the basic reporter couldn’t hold back was amusing.

“If you’ve truly mastered the basics, you wouldn’t have supported me before.”

“I’m looking forward to these basics.”

He laughed, unperturbed by the mockery.

Just a cheerful smile.

‘The guy seems unpleasant.’

With a smirk, he moved forward.

“But I was told not to bring any textbooks, so I didn’t bring any.”

“Not necessary. Those are just garbage.”

“Garbage…?”

Abel feigned a sullen expression.

“But do we really not need your help? Professor Alves even declared himself a slave to us.”

“Graduate students aren’t slaves.”

“Well, suddenly such an argument…”

“It’s fine. It’s not like he taught anything to one or two people anyway.”

Like Yoo Eun-chae, I didn’t teach formally.

But I did teach other wizards quite well.

When I was unemployed, I even created a military force to protect the Heaven Horse.

Ding.

“Your magic power has increased by 1.”

“Oh, it finally went up.”

With this, my magic power reached 20.

Reaching 20 means I can do other things.

Hyukjak Yeomhwa.

I can engrave that power in my heart.

If a complete Hyukjak Yeomhwa is created.

“I can become at least three times stronger than I am now.”

That means I can get rid of everything that meets the standard.

“Avel, you go first.”

“I’ll go first and quiet the kids.”

“Alright.”

After sending Avel, the office became quiet.

I took out a pill from inside the drawer.

The medicine that the principal gave me because he found it amusing before.

“Wasn’t it called the Goblin’s Elixir?”

The energy was endlessly close to purity.

Pure elixirs held tremendous value on their own.

This is because elixirs embody the essence of natural energy.

Thus, finding an elixir that suits oneself is extremely challenging.

However, pure elixirs, regardless of such difficulties, enhance one’s strength.

*Nom.*

I put it in my mouth.

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

The moment it touched my lips, it melted. A tremendous, rich taste of concentrated vegetables swirled in my mouth.

*Kwa-aaah!*

An immense amount of mana poured into the palate.

The river of mana.

No, like seas of mana surging like a tidal wave!

Yet, calmly, I guided them into the palate.

And circled the palate once, reaching the heart.

In this process, I stirred my will.

“Awaken.”

The dormant deity of chaos quietly woke up.

Usually, it remained still, regulating the physical body.

But as soon as the elixir was poured, it opened its eyes, absorbing all the mana from the elixir.

“Magic power has increased by 10.”

A brief moment to be called fleeting.

The elixir has entirely settled within my body.

‘To the point where the elixir won’t be needed for a while.’

It would be perfect if I inscribe the innovative alchemical transformation into my heart as well.

‘It seems the time has come.’

The time to teach the students, that is.

*

After discovering the level of this world.

I began to contemplate.

‘I must elevate the level.’

As much as it fits my eyes.

And to fit my eyes, that level had to be exceedingly high.

Assuming those who have reached at least the current level need to triple, if not more.

But there’s also a question.

I mobilized everything about the violet tower to defeat the demon king.

King Chongryong.

Even staking my life was not enough for him.

But, to put it differently.

I only used the capabilities of the violet tower.

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, navy.

Except for the violet ones, there are six mausoleums present.

I’ve cracked open quite a few of their skulls, though.

No matter how much I did, Earth started with nothing.

But it’s too strange for six mausoleums to lag behind the Earthlings.

“I shouldn’t have had to venture into the martial world in the first place.”

The population here is enormous.

Whether it’s a fantasy world or the martial world, both boast a population exceeding 100 million.

The fantasy side is abundant in mana, with excellent basic physical conditions.

The martial world has sparse mana, but the ‘way of handling mana’ is highly developed.

So, it was puzzling.

I may have taken out quite a few…

No, a whole lot.

Yet, them falling behind so ruthlessly was incomprehensible.

Even now, with some understanding of their inherent characteristics.

“I don’t know.”

Someday.

I must find out what they did to fall so low.

But now is the time to conceal my strength.

That’s why I took on the position of an academy professor.

At least until I receive the transcendental’s protection.

Strength is cultivated.

This is how I face the world now.

Step by step.

I stop walking.

Because I’ve just entered the classroom.

“Most of them I’ve seen before.”

But there are many I don’t know.

Among them, there are a few that pique my curiosity.

Swoosh.

As I open the door, gazes are fixed on me.

I didn’t make a fuss like the others.

However, I didn’t quite like the looks they were giving me.

It’s as if they’re saying, “Give it a shot.”

Sending provocative glances my way.

“Or perhaps they’re indifferent.”

Like the guy with the white belt draped like a hero.

And Seon Woo-hyun, a guy looking at me with provocative eyes.

Or the guy with silver hair that shines as if he’s encountered something special.

“It’s amusing.”

These guys have just turned 20, as far as I know.

The level is quite decent.

Even in the second round. Even in the third round. There were only about 2 to 3 guys like this.

“Well, the Earth is big.”

With such a large population, there are plenty of exceptional individuals.

However, on the other hand.

There are only about 10 of them.

Even though they are 35 times more numerous than the combined population of the two continents.

Only about 10 people are at that level.

“Well, there are countries with closed policies, and I’ve heard there’s another place like this.”

It’s not incomprehensible.

I stood at the podium and scanned the faces.

There was Abel, a vampire who emitted a light-hearted atmosphere while his eyes glittered.

And there was the professor who tried to teach me before. Was it Albestro or Alves?

And I saw the others.

A girl with blonde hair. And a guy with a bandana wrapped straight around his head like a hero.

And.

There was also a guy who didn’t seem to have any talent.

“Was it Sunwoo Hyun?”

I remember him being someone who pretended not to be Yoo Eun Chae but still cared.

“Well, they’re sitting far apart.”

Seon Woo-hyun was sitting at the far end by the window.

Yoo Eun-chae was closest to the door where I entered.

Well, but.

“Isn’t that guy a bit suspicious?”

Whether it was Seon Woo-hyun or Yoo Eun-chae.

The carefree Abel, laughing lightly, or the professor.

Rather than a wizard with a silver beard.

It was the boy, with a hero-like build, wearing a celestial aura, that caught my attention.

My instincts told me there was something about him.

Yoo Eun-chae said with a smirk.

Well, still, I have to do what needs to be done.

“Come on, give it a try.”

I grumbled.

*

Of course, there was no one who actually did it.

Everyone here is just pretending.

So, whether it’s self-esteem or pride, they’re all just empty shells.

That’s why I chose these words.

“Grumble head, what the heck…”

“You guys, who think this kind of thing is a basic textbook and happily accept it.”

Abel tapped on the textbook, which seemed like something he had left behind, and said, “It’s about the basics of mana manipulation. They call it the fundamental mana application technique.”

“Stubborn fool,” I muttered under my breath.

Crack.

I set the textbook on fire. It wasn’t worth wasting paper on such a thing.

“So, I’ve discarded everything I was going to teach you all, and I’m feeling quite upset about it.”

“But, Master…”

“Quiet.”

“…Then what are you going to teach us?”

“The basics of mana manipulation.”

“The basics of mana manipulation?”

“Yes. You, Yoo Eun-chae. What does this look like?”

I pointed at my index finger.

Eun-chae’s pupils seemed to contain flames.

As if she had read the handwriting I had written with mana, she began to speak.

“Bobache-eunyu? Oh my!”

“And how about this?”

“A sphere?”

“And this?”

“…I can only see something vague.”

“That’s good enough then. Nurture your eyes well.”

Faintly visible, if it were to appear subdued, it was evidence that half of my talents from the second round could keep up.

“Earthlings have received the system’s selection. There is no denying the utility of the system.”

Teaching nonsensical abilities, bestowing authority at will, and overlaying the physical form.

Nevertheless, the utility of it made one incredibly comfortable and rapidly strengthened.

And because it was more addictive than any drug, I have no intention of denying it.

“But it’s not good to trust the system too much. As a result, you’ve become too inferior.”

One guy, provoked by these words, seemed angered.

Sun Woo-hyun.

From Noble mtl dot com

The chosen one.

He was also evaluated as the most outstanding among the first years.

‘But why aren’t the others getting angry?’

Usually, when the source of one’s strength is ignored, there’s no choice but to get angry.

…Could it be that only really strange guys came?

Well, that could be possible.

Because it’s absurd for people to come saying they’ll learn from him just because he drew a magic circle.

“What happens if you learn the basics of mana manipulation?”

“At least, it won’t be supported for the mediocre guys.”

“…What’s the standard for those mediocre guys?”

“At the peak in the first-class. Or magicians from 3rd circle to 5th circle. In your terms, heroes of intermediate rank.”

“That’s ridiculous.”

There was a guy who let out a bitter laugh.

It was Sunwoo Hyun.

Blatant hostility.

No, it was closer to malice.

I chuckled and responded, “Well, it might be fine for now, but… if you keep advancing without building a solid foundation out of excitement, you’ll end up futilely struggling later. You won’t be able to do anything.”

“…!”

Sunwoo Hyun’s expression seemed to flare up.

The reaction was odd.

Did he really struggle and end up achieving nothing against someone who used a little force?

Yoo Eunchae was desperately trying to hold back her laughter at my words.

“So, what should we do, Professor?”

“Try using magic once.”

I looked around.

Someone worth using as a pawn… “Hmm, it’s only you.”

Most of the others were strangers.

Only Yoo Eunchae was left.

“Bring it on.”

“I won’t even bother looking.”

“Are you even capable of handling what you’re about to see?”

“Whoa!”

Mana near Yoo Eunchae fluctuated.

The speed is fast.

Whoosh!

Flame of Swift Creation, Red Flame Sphere.

I made that.

“But.”

“Why? Are you trying to change your words now that you’re here?”

“I’ve been thinking since last time. Why do you say you’ll attack and then actually attack?”

“Uh, well, that’s because of the magic circle…”

“So, what you guys need is basic mana manipulation.”

I said, looking at the others.

“Basic mana application. In your terms, you can call it basic mana control ability. Give it a try.”

“Hey!”

Yoo Eunchae threw a Red Flame Sphere at me.

“If you can apply this a little more, something like this is also possible.”

“Watch out!”

Thud.

Sizzle!

“……!”

“This is unbelievable!!”

Everyone expressed their astonishment as if they couldn’t believe it.

Yoo Eunchae and Sun Woo-hyun.

Their reactions were the most intense.

Their expressions seemed as if they had seen something impossible.

Because the traces of the Scarlet Orb had disappeared without a trace.

*

“The basic mana control ability. This is a fundamental ability that must be accumulated to a certain extent in order to progress.”

The gaze was different from before.

Everyone was looking at me with astonished eyes.

Indeed, seeing is believing.

When those who were not interested, who didn’t know what it was, concentrate like this.

“W-what just happened?”

“It’s a basic mana control ability. In terms of magic, it’s also known as Dispel.”

“B-but the mana didn’t move…”

“What do you think Dispel does?”

“It dismantles and releases the magic, right?”

“Wrong.”

I slowly approached Yoo Eunchae.

“Dispel focuses on scattering the mana of magic.”

He, who was hailed as a genius, invented the magic called Dispel.

And in just about ten years, Dispel became popular in the market.

Another genius created the basic operating method.

That genius would be me.

Dispel is a magic created by mediocre magicians who couldn’t meet someone like me.

“Because Dispel is a primitive magic created in an era when mana control abilities weren’t developed much.”

“…Dispel?”

“A basic mana control ability. Dispel is a magic made by needlessly complicating this. That’s why it’s a primitive magic.”

Yoo Eunchae’s eyes shook at my words.

As for Sun Woo-hyun, that guy seems to be hiding something big too.

“I’ll find out what it is later.”

Not right now, though.

“Then, if I were to learn from you, would I be able to do that much?”

Sun Woo-hyun spoke in a cold voice.

I raised the corner of my mouth.

“If you can learn.”

If there’s a problem, it’s that this is a bit difficult to learn.

The theory I presented anew was something I wanted to teach to many in the second session.

However, most did not learn it.

“What happens if you detach the basics?”

“Detach the basics?”

Expectant eyes.

At times like these, I know I have to show something.

“Even if you’re a layman, with minimal mana, you can reach the level of a swordmaster… or if you’re a magician.”

I reached out my hand.

Zap!

A swirl of blue wrapped around my hand.

Basic magic, not celestial sorcery.

But the manifestation of that magic was incredibly swift and discreet.

“The ability to hide the void spear and magic circle and use magic.”

“It’s more impressive than I thought yet less effective than I imagined.”

“Well, it’s the foundation. What more can you expect from the most fundamental step to progress to the next level?”

Push too hard in life, and it’ll push back.

That, too, was my theory.

“Then, teach us this basic mana manipulation.”

I grinned.

The children echoed my smile with their own.

Someone with anticipation of becoming stronger, someone with curiosity as if they have discovered something amazing.

And there are also those who are wary.

“It doesn’t matter.”

We will proceed with the lessons fairly.

I hope everyone follows along and engraves it into their minds.

However, there was one disappointing aspect.

During my days as a Purple Tower Master or when I was the Lord of the Thousand Horses, they used to look at me with respect before training their subordinates.

And once the training was over, they all wanted to kill me.

“They weren’t even that difficult.”

I believe you will be different.
