The Academy’s Neglected Wizard in the Game

Episode 8 – Cadenza, the Great Concerto

#One

Anais was enjoying a full moon night with her dorm mate Cale.

Today was a day when going out of the dormitory was prohibited, and at the same time, it was also a day when you could enjoy freedom in the dormitory.

It was a perfect atmosphere except for the fact that Cale had a bad stomach.

I was idly watching the rising full moon, feeling strange.

Strange mana spread to the point of making my stomach groan.

“-Kale, kid, wake up.”

“Yes? why?”

it was awkward

Anais frowned slightly and asked his friend.

“Why do you keep feeling sick to your stomach, don’t you?”

“… … I will die.”

As expected, Cale feels strange too.

Anais took a deep breath to calm his throbbing stomach, then gazed at the red full moon as if possessed.

By the way, the atmosphere is a little strange?

Cale, who had been lowering his head, also raised his face.

weird.

Originally, the school was not like this.

Anais hurriedly looked around.

Then I pressed close to the window looking out.

Cale slowly got up from his seat and walked over to her side.

“what’s the matter?”

“Look at that.”

“huh? It’s called tempered glass… … .”

No, it’s not like that.

Anais extended a finger and pointed in the direction of the forest.

A clearing between the forest and the dormitory.

Something strange-looking was approaching the trembling girl.

and-.

“Um, isn’t that a knife?”

“Four arms.”

“-You have to save it.”

After Cale muttered, he instinctively ran towards the bottom.

It’s about saving people.

Even if you break the rules of the academy, you’ll see it at least once.

Anais too hurriedly followed her.

What’s going on-!

“Hey, hey-! Kale! Go with me!”

The atmosphere was strange.

This was not the atmosphere of the night she was acquainted with.

I hurriedly put on my robe and went out.

still in first grade.

Because the floor height was not that high, I was able to quickly head to the first floor.

‘By the way, why are you so quiet?’

Without even having time to question, the two of them ran like crazy through the empty hallway.

A monstrous creature running amok in the academy.

Haven’t heard

I’d never heard of anything like this.

When I ran outside, there was a woman who had passed out and a strange monster holding a knife.

She instinctively cast a spell and threw it at the mask.

[Igni]

“-Stop it, you monster.”

With the most basic magic, he drew attention and gathered mana.

However, the gigantic masked monster did not give me a chance to gather mana.

He spurred the ground with his strong legs and swung two swords at the same time.

‘danger-.’

[edge]

Kaaang-!

A sharp metallic sound was heard.

Class 1 Magic: Edge.

Another name the ruins call: Shield.

A petal blocked the stabbing blade.

The magic that came from Kayle who was reaching out.

It was a really nice and neat development.

what is the speed

Among the current freshmen, there is definitely no one who can unleash this kind of magic at this speed.

However-.

[Mmm-!]

“Keejak-!”

As usual, petals fall in vain.

Demonium’s sword had more destructive power than expected.

Although he was not directly hit by the sharp blade, the edge broke and mana fragments hit Anais.

[Aura]

Cale’s magic was manifested again.

The strong gust of wind became a blade and cut off the grotesque arm along with mana fragments.

Squeak-!

The black arm fell off with a sharp sound.

“Ugh… … Still, the knife… … . uh-?”

“again… … It’s happening.”

An arm that regenerates.

The sight of pulling out the sword that had been stuck in there infects them with a sense of fear.

Both Cale and Anais knew instinctively.

‘How can I beat that!’

“There will be weaknesses, weaknesses.”

Anais’ specialty is fireworks.

Unfortunately, Mage Arcana hates fire magic.

Kayle can learn all attribute magic, but currently only wind and fire magic, and common magic.

The wind usually deals damage, but it’s an attack that doesn’t compare to Cale’s abilities right now.

[Ugh-!]

A great catastrophe was slowly approaching.

Can you beat something like that?

A dark shadow fell on both of their faces.

#2

Something went wrong.

Manus folded his arms and watched the two fight.

It was desperate.

As if reality couldn’t be compared to games, the two were fighting while rolling their bodies.

“Why not write… … . no way.”

ah-.

I never dreamed that my existence would be such a big butterfly.

I thought I could just stay still.

I thought I could just dodge the death flag.

Manus overlooked one thing.

Early game tutorial.

The scene that everyone ‘skips’.

The fact that men before becoming Manus clicked skip countless times and didn’t care.

Awesome-.

He hurriedly grabbed his robe.

If we go on like this, those two will die.

‘Why didn’t I think of that?’

That skip button that many gamers around the world have pressed.

I should have remembered that.

In the beginning, the catalyst for the protagonist to awaken his abilities is none other than Manus himself.

what he said

Because of what he did, Cadenza, a rare morale passive, is awakened.

If you’ve been playing for too long, you’ll end up playing the first half without thinking.

At least Manus did.

It was driving them to the precipice of death.

‘It’s a role that I’m supposed to play.’

So, Manus himself will have to do it again this time.

he ran

It was a very strange sight.

“Hold on for a little while.”

His thunderclap echoed in the hallway.

At that time, Anais felt his mana depleted and was fighting dizziness.

Knowing that no matter how many attacks she threw, she focused on defense.

Because I knew some common magic.

Cale must have been exhausted by now, and his breathing was rapid.

It’s hopeless.

I was angry with the useless guest.

Only 1st year level manaron, he couldn’t overcome such a monstrous monster.

‘I made a fuss like this and fought, but no one came-. That’s even weirder!’

Anais barely managed to lead his panting body to avoid the attack.

It’s far better to roll around in the grass than to spend mana.

The deeply embedded knife vibrated terrifyingly.

[Mmm-!]

The masked guy violently drew his sword and charged again.

No, no, no-!

My feet get twisted and my mind wanders.

[Mmm!]

Kiririk, the mask that moved like a broken doll looked straight at Anais.

Mana depletion side effects.

Anais momentarily lost control of his body and stumbled.

It was not a demonium that would miss that gap.

‘no-!’

Cale is also miss-casting.

An urgent mind cannot manifest magic.

A true wizard always needs a firm and unshakable heart.

Servant of Morse: Demonium did not miss the magicians’ gaps.

The sharp blade, which seemed as if even one wrong hit would blow off its limbs, glistened in the moonlight.

Is the god of death trying to take the lives of the two?

‘To die here in vain like this? I’m from the Floys family-?’

[hmm-?]

However, the monster stopped trying to approach the two.

Sobok-.

I heard the sound of stepping on the grass.

A white ice flower bloomed.

The mask turned its attention to the new character.

He probably thought he was a more dangerous person.

Anais covered the goose bumps on her arm with her hand.

When I turned my gaze to the place the mask was looking at, there was a pure white ice queen standing there.

Hard-!

The sound unique to ice magic rang through the air.

[Glacier]

Glacier’s Higher Magic: Glacier.

Class 2 ice magic fired a mace at the mask.

Demonium swung his sword to block it, but the arm crashed into the ground.

[Glacier – Tellum]

A spear of ice sprouted in the air and waited for the master’s command.

The owner of silver hair, shining even more in the moonlight, gestured gracefully.

ping-!

A silver line shot towards the mask.

However, the purpose was not achieved.

Instead, the spear took two of his arms.

[Mum-!]

A mask that slowly steps back.

I regained my composure in the battle aspect.

“-Is everyone okay?”

“Allano… … Seniors?”

“Come behind me.”

The two quickly stood up and headed towards Alano’s back.

Alano, the 2nd year student council president.

Excluding Manus, the sorceress who is said to be the strongest among the second years.

No one else and she is a reinforcement!

A sigh of relief flowed out.

I wish there was at least one more… … .

The moment Anais comes up with a good idea to sell -.

“Are you struggling with something like that?”

-It actually happened.

The three people’s expressions strangely changed at the sudden criticism.

The sound of the softly polished shoes was louder than the demonium’s spits.

The blue gaze was directed directly at Cale.

Although he said it calmly, he was currently in a confused state.

[Check for interference.]

[DLC character privileges are activated.]

[The time required for the Cadenza skill is reduced by 999 hours.]

[Skill: Acquire Cadenza]

[Please select the following skill – 1 slot]

Knowledge was constantly being injected into my brain.

Disassembly and reconstruction of magic formulas.

synthesis.

Another magical manifestation.

A pounding head and a hazy mind plagued Manus.

It felt like someone was forcing me to play the movie at super-fast speed about 100 times.

– It was a very unpleasant and intrusive feeling.

“He has a special power. I was so pathetic that I stopped by for a while.”

“… … .”

Cale blankly looked at Manus.

frowning eyes.

Remnants of mana blooming like a haze.

His eyes were taken by Manus, who spoke like a wolf growling in a very bad mood.

he stretched out both his hands.

[Igni]

Brilliant flame in one hand -.

[Aura]

The other hand creates a sharp wind.

Two different elements cannot inherently become one.

This is the common sense of magic, and it is also the foundation.

However, there are always exceptions.

“Use the special.”

genius.

It is also a word that refers to those who achieve the impossible, and also refers to those who suggest a new path.

Or, it could mean someone with a lot of talent.

then-.

What should a person who fits all of these criteria be called?

What should we call great talent and genius that can never be approached with the same word?

I tried rolling the words in my mouth, but I couldn’t think of those words.

Alano, Anais, and Kale.

The three witnessed a historic moment together.

cadenza.

The great concerto was played in the hands of Manus.

‘It’s made up of a more complicated structure than I thought. Calculating these things one by one is definitely difficult.’

No, that would normally be impossible.

It was a complete departure from the laws of magic.

Magic formulas are made up of ‘lines’.

The abbreviation of that is ‘Castle’.

Pentagram.

s*xiness.

Decimal star.

White Mangseong… … .

Class 1 magic averages 32 stars.

32 lines.

When the lines are drawn on different hands and two spells are completed, it is called double casting.

Then what is a cadenza?

Lines are split.

The magic spells fragmented from the line segments containing mana were joined together in a new way.

[Save Recipe]

[Igni] – [Aura]

＜Double Spread＞

Paji Jiji-!

Collision between magic circles.

It was a precursor to a huge explosion that would occur when magic collided with magic.

“no-! it’s crazy?!”

Alano, who had a good eye, tried to stop Manus right away.

That’s crazy.

It’s impossible-!

However, Cale blankly analyzed the structure of magic.

split and combine

That’s how you create new magic.

Some truth hit her head.

Wow-.

the air cried

It was too much noise to think that it was a combination of two 1st class magic.

[Result: Atablus]

The spread was squeezed.

A new magic was constructed, and it produced an entirely new result.

ah-.

Alano stared blankly at Manus.

It was the same with Anais and Cale.

“This is your magic-.”

Atablus, the word for the sandy hot wind blowing into the Mediterranean Sea.

It was a strange flame that dried up the mouth and deprived the surroundings of moisture.

It was less powerful because it was two 1st class magic, but it wasn’t like that at the level of students.

No one in history has demonstrated such magic at Manus’ age.

The owner of Caesar, who is currently praised as the Great Mage, is also!

“It is the ability to break down and put together, to create something new.”

“—-ah.”

Cale’s mana fluctuated.

At the same time, Manus reached out his hand.

aaa!

The fever that spread like a whirlwind engulfed the mask.

[Uhm-!!]

At the voice that seemed to be holding back a scream, ridicule caught on Manus’ lips.

I won’t die from this blow.

The awakening woman will do the rest.

He turned around without regret.

Mana was lacking, but I couldn’t tell the truth straight away.

“Uh, where are you going?”

“Leave the aftermath to me. I don’t like to drink lukewarm drinks.”

“… … .”

Alano looked at his back with a bewildered look.

Anais also reacted by slightly opening her mouth.

“you can do it-.”

At that moment, Cale opened his eyes.

It was an awakening to a true protagonist.
