Chapter 38: “What is this…”
“What is this…”
Kang Yoo-sik looked at the notification window that appeared in front of him with a puzzled expression. He didn’t work on it in advance, but a debt relationship was created.
In a situation he had never experienced, including before the return, Kang Yoo-sik looked at the name of the debtor again with a confused expression.
‘If Ban Hye-young… … Is she the Archmage?’
The best wizard who is not specialized in specific attributes, but is born with a natural talent in the science of magic itself.
Even the American “Hermit” and the Japanese “Goddess” are inferior to her in the depths of knowledge, that was S-class hunter Ban Hye-young.
‘Why is this person to me… … .’
Kang Yoo-sik, with a puzzled expression, used a memory map to see if there was anything he missed and delved into the memory of Ban Hye-young in detail.
(Sung-jin Academy Teacher) (Wilhelmina’s Teacher) (Death)
‘Ah… … Come to think of it, there was a time when she was a teacher here.’
Since she was a person who focused on research as a wizard rather than as a hunter, it seems that he could not remember it properly due to its low importance.
Kang Yoo-sik, who recalled the memories of Ban Hye-young, who had been investigating Frost Witch and Wilhelmina before the regression, began to understand the situation.
‘It looks like she saw something on the exam paper I handed.’
Ban Hye-young is still an excellent wizard, but compared to the days Kang Yoo-sik knew, she is at a lower level.
This is because she doesn’t know about the dozens of magic theories that Ban Hae-young herself and his student, Wilhelmina, would prove in decades.
Unlike him, however, Kang Yoo-sik was ‘remembering’ about the theories that the two proved, and among them, he used a popular application method.
‘If such an aspect was found on the test paper… … .’
Compared to real proof, there will be insufficient clues, but if you are a genius like Ban Hye-young, you can figure out the whole frame right away.
And what if you go further there and get enlightenment?
‘It’s not strange even if there is a debt relationship.’
Otherwise, there is no reason for a debt relationship to arise from Ban Hye-young, who has not met. Kang Yoo-sik, who was almost convinced, made a puzzled expression.
‘No, I was so careful, but I made a mistake… … ?’
In case I would use the method in the future, I review it again and again and carefully engrave it?
Somehow, Kang Yoo-sik recalled the answer on the test paper and found the cause.
“… … Ah.”
The last failed formula he had entered came to mind.
‘It’s made with intuition, so it’s far from what’s known these days… … .’
She got enlightened from there?
How the hell is the structure of her head, she can get huge enlightenment enough to create a debt relationship on her own from such a messy formula?
When Kang Yoo-sik with a ridiculous expression is looking at the notification window blankly.
-found you.
A voice echoing in his head with a creepy sensation.
At the sensation of cognitive maximization, Kang Yoo-sik quickly turned his head to the side, and a person wearing a black robe around the whole body appeared.
Unusual appearance and unusual energy. When Kang Yoo-sik is staring at the sudden appearance with a nervous expression.
“Kang Yoo-sik… … ?”
Even though it may be due to fatigue, the voice trembles without strength. Kang Yoo-sik looked closely at the appearance he had seen before and nodded.
“Yes. That’s right… … .”
Thomp thomp thomp!
“?!”
As soon as Kang Yoo-sik replied, the person wearing a black robe rushed at him and snatched both hands.
The rough movement pushed the hood down to the bottom of the nose, and the face, which had been covered up, was revealed.
Pale skin with long black hair that stretches slightly around. A woman with a drowsy impression with deep dark circles on her slightly drooping eyes.
“you! Let’s write a thesis with me!”
It was the appearance of Ban Hye-young.
* * *
“come in.”
As she got closer, the door naturally opened, and as she went inside, the chandelier on the ceiling and the lamp on the wall was automatically turned on, revealing the interior of the lab.
A huge interior that can be seen beyond 300m2 and bookshelves on the walls. And the tower of books piled up from the bottom.
Kang Yoo-sik gave a slightly strange expression to the figure that suits the word “wizard” commonly used in fairy tales.
“Ah. It’s a little messy. wait a minute.”
Snap!
When Ban Hye-young bounced her finger, the books piled up like a tower rose to the sky and flew to the bookshelf, and the paper trash that had been thrown went into the trash bin.
Kang Yoo-sik slightly admired the appearance of unfolding dozens of complex formulas with very simple gestures.
“Are you cleaning up like this on a regular basis?”
“Huh? no. I couldn’t do it before.”
“… … Huh?”
Ban Hye-young, who turned his head at Kang Yoo-sik’s mysterious expression, smiled with an excited expression.
“I’ll sit down and talk to you. Sit first.”
Snap!
When she flicked her finger again, two chairs, a table, and a kettle flew in a row and set quickly.
It looks as if an invisible human being is moving instead. Kang Yoo-sik’s evaluation of Ban Hye-young suddenly came to mind.
‘She lives in a different world, and the magic cannot even be imitated because the language is different.’
The reason Ban Hye-young is praised wasn’t just about the powerful magical power.
Multicasting ability and spell power control method that cannot be explained by the human category. That ability was the sight that is unfolding right in front of his eyes, and her unique skill, ‘Magic Spirit’.
“sit down.”
“Oh, Okay.”
Kang Yoo-sik, who saw the terrifying talent in person, sat across from her with a strange expression.
A teapot boiled over the fire in the air poured the tea, and Ban Hye-young looked at it with a smile.
“Drink some tea. It’s quite good.”
Kang Yoo-sik nodded, sipping the tea, and at that moment, refreshing magical power soaked into his body.
A feeling of fulfillment that you can never feel in an ordinary tea. Kang Yoo-sik stared at that sudden sensation with a surprised expression.
“It’s a Perpetual Snow Root tea.”
Ban Hye-young smiled and answered.
“… … What?!”
Perpetual Snow Root.
Even in the unprocessed state, it is tens of billions of dollars, and even the leaves are close to billions.
And she gives out the tea to me? Kang Yoo-sik looked very alert to the incomprehensible usage.
‘What the hell are you asking for… … .’
Even an S-class hunter with a lot of money couldn’t give a mere favor with something close to a billion.
As Kang Yoo-sik looked at it with a nervous expression, Ban Hye-young sipping the tea and added.
“You don’t need to refuse. It’s actually yours.”
“… … Is it mine?”
“Thanks to you, the research to use it as a material is no longer needed. So there’s nothing strange to say it’s yours.”
“… … .”
Kang Yoo-sik thought it was a strange story and looked at Ban Hye-young, who looked happy, and came to a conclusion.
“Then, I will gladly drink it.”
On the outside, even if it looks just like a tea, it’s all spell power stats.
Kang Yoo-sik sipping the tea so quickly that it was not obvious, and Ban Hye-young went to the main point without caring about it.
“Where should I start… …. Um. It would be better to do it from the beginning.”
As Ban Hye-young waved his hand, a piece of paper emerged from the desk in the back and was put on the table.
‘I knew it was for this.’
It was the paper that was the answer sheet for the last question, as Kang Yoo-sik expected, and Ban Hye-young stared at it.
“this. It’s the answer you wrote, right?”
“… … Yes. That’s right.”
“It wasn’t that someone else told you, it’s from your thought, right?”
“Yes.”
“You are telling the truth?”
“That’s true.”
Kang Yoo-sik replied to the repeated questions without shaking, and after hearing all the stories, Ban Hye-young took a breath and shouted with both eyes twinkling.
“You are a genius.”
“… … .”
“The cadet I’ve seen so far, no, you are an incomparable genius with anyone else out there who calls themselves sorcerers.”
“O, Okay… … .”
“I’m not kidding, I mean it. I can guarantee it under my name. This talent is definitely one of the best in the world… … .”
Kang Yoo-sik’s face was a bit hot at Ban Hye-young’s story, which continued to emphasize he was a genius.
‘It’s enough to say once… … .’
Is it because of the sudden debt relationship that was created?
Kang Yoo-sik got goosebumps because of the different appearance of her, which was known to be picky, and drank the tea to calm it down and stopped her compliment.
“Umm… … Mrs. Ban Hye-young? Thank you for complimenting me, but I can’t understand the situation yet… … .”
“Ah, um. Hmm! okay. That’s right. I’m sorry, I was excited.”
As if she realized that she was also excited, Ban Hye-young coughed with a reddish face. It’s not certain yet, but the formulas he has created are so tremendous that she can’t control her emotions.
‘That’s why the debt accrued.’
What on earth did she see in this failed formula?
Kang Yoo-sik waited for an explanation with a puzzled expression, and Ban Hye-young opened his hand.
“Look Carefully.”
Ooong!
On Ban Hye-young’s hand, the formula created by Kang Yoo-sik was unfolded, and a black circle was created to suck the light in a spiral.
It looks the same as when he used it before. Kang Yoo-sik looked at it with a puzzled expression.
“Don’t take your eyes off until I say I’m done.”
“But… … .”
Before even asking, Ban Hye-young waved her hand to get rid of the formula, and Kang Yoo-sik was confused by the sudden action but waited as she told.
That moment.
Whooong
The light flashed from the place where the formula disappeared, and Kang Yoo-sik’s eyes widened when he saw it.
“This… … .”
No, the formula was turned off, but why does the light come out later?
In the ridiculous situation where he can’t understand his own formula, Kang Yoo-sik worked hard to manage his facial expressions, and Ban Hye-young looked at the light with a beloved expression.
“You seem to have made it unconsciously, but… … This formula is something that could revolutionize the magic world.”
“Revolution… …?”
At Kang Yoo-sik’s question, Ban Hye-young nodded straight away.
“Theor’s hypothesis of imaginary space. Ragmund’s Magic Technic Speculation. And Id Magic Speculation I was exclusively researching.. … .”
The magic theory from the dimensional piece and the magic that Ban Hye-young is studying. When Kang Yoo-sik heard the names, his eyes widened.
‘these… … All of them are proved by Ban Hye-young, right?’
Probably all proved within five years, and then founded her own school, which was the intuition magic, the Id school, which Kang Yoo-sik had a lot of influence on.
“I can prove all the challenges that have not been solved so far with this formula alone. It may take a while to get it done, but I’m sure it will succeed.”
That will be it. Because I watched Ban Hye-young directly making it. The problem is that it wasn’t because of her, it was changed to by myself.
‘This… … why… … .’
He has thought about how to sell the magic theory that will be proved later but didn’t expect it would come like this.
When Kang Yoo-sik is confused by an unexpected situation. Ban Hye-young grabbed his hands again.
“So let’s write one thesis, no, three!”
At the appearance of Ban Hye-young coming back, Kang Yoo-sik understood why she wanted to write the thesis together.
‘She realized it thanks to me, so is she trying to take care of me?’
Had she been greedy, she would have been able to dominate the fame as if she realized herself.
However, instead of doing such a shameful thing, Ban Hye-young is telling him to write the thesis together as a co-author.
‘Debt relationship… … No, isn’t it just because of that?’
Considering her honest and clean personality even before returning, she would have suggested this even if she had no debt relationship.
Kang Yoo-sik, who understood all of the sudden situations, was pondering for a while.
‘Thesis… … thesis.’
There is nothing wrong with being famous.
After entering the diamond class, it will be useful to have excellent skills in order to attract other talents.
‘But this time it’s becoming too famous… … .’
Will there be any more gains from publishing this thesis by putting my name as the main one?
Kang Yoo-sik was immersed in thoughts while thinking about the memories before his return, and an unexpected story came to mind.
‘If it wasn’t for Hunter Ban Hye-young’s research, the wizards on Earth would have been half weaker than they are now.’
‘It was all because of the magic created by Hunter Ban Hye-young.’
‘What are you so grateful to someone who hasn’t even seen a face? I saved my life thanks to her so it’s so natural to be grateful’
Interviews in documentaries and educational programs that appeared on TV whenever it had a chance. Kang Yoo-sik remembered the contents of the story a while ago.
‘It’s rare… … but the innocent guys make a debt relationship on their own.’
In terms of proportions, it’s very little, but if that is the base of wizards around the world, how many will it be when it’s half of them.
And will it be easier to make a connection with Wilhelmina, a genius who will transfer school next year?
He thought about the images that would have been dismissed as bullshit before the return.
“I’ll do my best.”
He got on the train to be successful.
