Klinssman’s Diary (4)

Seeing the fifth group of students prepare for the training, Professor Baek Dong-suk confirmed their profiles.

‘Kim Chang-soo in group 5 had excellent magic control and casting ability. Occasionally, in a tense situation, you tend to make mistakes. Still, based purely on magical skills, he’s in the top ranks of the magic department. ‘

“Hmm.”

He remembers.

Kim attended class, always sitting in the front.

He’s not bad.

If Kim Chang-soo were not a team leader but a team member, Baek Dong-suk would not have paid much attention to the fifth set of trainees.

‘The problem were the rest.’

First, Lee Min-ho.

‘A talent specialized in various attack magic. However, Lee Min-ho’s casting speed was the problem. He was slow. It’s not certain if his groupmate could stall their enemies while he casts spells.’

Next is Kim Jung-min.

‘He had no problem with speed, and has similar abilities to Chang-soo, but his struggle was his accuracy. It wouldn’t be a big deal if magic deviated a few times when the defensive line was formed ahead, but making those types of mistakes could cost wizards their lives.’

It was the tough reality.

Min-hyuk wanted to know how the members got together like this.

But the biggest reason for Baek Dong-suk’s grim expression was the last member, not the first three.

‘This is the biggest problem—a novice wizard who made 1st circle magic for only a month. The magic you can do with 1st circle magic is limited, and it is clear that he has not mastered it. The higher the circle, the shorter the casting time, and greater the magical power. In that sense, Kang Min-hyuk is likely to be the first one down. ‘

Min-hyuk had a headache.

The picture was clear to him.

If the fifth group began to struggle, Min-hyuk would only be able to cast 1st circle magic.

In that situation, it would be all over for them.

Professor Baek Dong-suk feared that the incident with the third group would happen all over again.

“… …Assistant.”

“Yes.”

“Prepare for emergency…”

“Okay.”

The man standing next to him nodded.

Still, the anxious mind did not subside; Dong-suk was stressed once again.

“I’ll cast 3rd circle magic. As soon as you see this signal, you may start; more than injured arms, your group may end up dead…”

While Prof. Baek Dong-Suk prepared for an emergency, the fifth group’s training finally began.

* * *

Beep!

The whistle sounded.

The door opened with the sound of iron, and from inside, 3 Goblins emerged.

Kirk

The Goblins looked around.

Without grasping the full situation, Chang-soo and other five members quickly tried to cast spells.

Hwaak.

Blue mana.

Kim Chang-soo turned his scattered mana into a magical system of ‘firebolt’, and at the same time, calculated the Goblin’s position. After completing the magic, he targeted the desired position according to the will of the caster, but to increase the hit rate, he also needed to calculate coordinates. Only by expressing one’s intention, can one calculate the margin of error caused by the opponent’s movement in advance, and calculate and cover where to drop the magic.

Time was ticking away.

The young eyes of the goblin enemies turned to their flock.

Kyaak!

Kyaak!

Things have escalated.

The goblins revealed their sharp teeth and rushed at them.

Fifty meters is not a long distance.

The distance between the two sides quickly narrowed, and when Goblin reached 10 meters, Kim Chang-soo’s released his magic.

“Firebolt!”

Wow.

Quaang!

Kiaeaeaeek!

There was a hot flame.

The magic of the 1st circle was not powerful, but the fire bolts used by the 2nd circle wizard were enough to damage the Goblin. Flames were blazing with bewildered goblins. But that alone could not beat the Goblin. Kim Chang-soo wanted to give up as they retreated.

“Jung-min!”

“Okay!”

Wha-ak!

Mana rose from his hand.

Time Difference attack.

Immobilize the Goblin, which was the strategy suggested by Kim Chang-soo.

“Firebolt!”

Crackling.

The magic choice was excellent.

The problem was that Lee Jung-min was nervous and couldn’t control the magic properly, causing the lightning bolt to hit only two goblins.

Meaning only one was left.

Kiek!

The last one.

While the other two groaned in pain, the remaining Goblin hit Lee Jung-min.

‘One more left!’

Kim Chang-soo turned pale.

An accident has occurred.

The unexpected occurrence caused him to cast his magic quickly.

But…

Damn, damn, damn.

He began to shake…

His hands trembled.

Though not severely injured, Chang-soo was becoming restless.

It was no different for Lee Jung-min.

Lee Jung-min was running out of time to cast his spell, and the Goblin was inching closer and closer towards him.

Kim Chang-soo closed his eyes tightly.

He was expecting the worse already.

“Rock!”

Paak!

A forceful blow knocked Goblin’s head to the ground.

* * *

Min-hyuk thought about a strategy before training began.

‘We need to be more careful with our use of time, and use simple and efficient magic. ‘

Lee Min-ho

While he was getting his attack ready, the Goblin was closely approaching.

Kim Chang-soo and Lee Jung-min used a 1st circle attack magic to buy time, but Min-hyuk had a different idea.

‘Attack magic had other uses aside from immobilizing enemies.’

He had a different strategy in mind.

Min-hyuk began casting at the same time as the battle. Intentionally, he did not use Double Casting. Min-hyuk judged that this was not the right time to reveal it as he wanted to prove it through Professor Lee Hak-beom’s study.

He began casting spells quickly.

People underestimated him, but his casting speed was faster than expected.

‘Time was of the essence, and he needed to be quick. ‘

The casting ended in a flash.

But before he could use it, he turned around and saw an accident about to occur.

In the face of the Goblin rushing towards Lee Jung-min, Min-hyuk chanted a spell.

“Rock!”

Rock

A basic earth elemental magic.

Summoning stones is a basic form of magic, but when unfolded in his hands, it has completely different results.

Paak!

Kiae-ek!

The rock was summoned five meters from the ground.

And it fell immediately.

It landed on the Goblin’s head before it could reach us.

“Wow.”

“What was that?”

“How did you perfectly set the coordinates up like that?”

An unexpected hero.

The students who watched Min-hyuk’s magic were astonished.

But the battle was not over yet.

With the two goblins floundering behind him, Kang Min-hyuk used the magic he had prepared.

“Rock.”

Tuk!

Quang!

The Goblin fell as the ground beneath him collapsed.

“Ice.”

It’s slippery!

Quadang!

In an instant, the ground froze, and the last Goblin fell upon the ground.

It happened in an instant.

Min-hyuk was quick on his feet, and every time he finished his previous attack, he prepared himself for the very next situation.

‘108 kinds of 1st circle magic.’

It’s not just about other kinds of magic.

It’s how to use 1st circle magic efficiently.

“There are dozens of elements, and even simple magic can make simple elements.”

Thanks to Klinssman, Min-hyuk gained enlightenment.

While checking out Klinssman’s comments, Min-hyuk saw the potential of elemental magic.

‘Magic is a discipline that exerts completely different powers according to its purpose.’

It is not just the result of knowledge.

The first thing he had to do was calculate where to drop the stone. To do that, Min-hyuk had to predict the opponent’s movements accurately.

He got lightheaded.

Although using only elemental magic, his mouth dried up from using the 1st circle magic three times in a row.

The Goblin’s were too far apart, Min-hyuk had overexerted himself.

Unfortunately, the situation was bleak.

Kim Chang-soo and Lee Jung-min failed to finish casting even though Minh-yuk bought them time.

Kiae-ek!

‘Break it.’

Min-hyuk saw the Goblin rising.

Kim Chang-soo and Lee Jung-min tried their best to finish casting, but it’s all over once a wizard loses composure. Mana becomes distracted and lost, so that it cannot form a magical system. Min-hyuk tried to calm Kim Chang-soo, but the accident still left him shaking.

Kyaak!

A goblin rushed towards him.

Glancing at Lee Min-ho, his magic was somewhat “completed.”

‘There’s only one Goblin awake.’

Just one.

Min-hyuk changed the calculation.

Diverting the Goblin’s attention and buying time was no longer a valid option.

Min-hyuk decided to take a more offensive approach, rushing directly towards the Goblin. Kim Chang-soo, who continued casting, shouted urgently,

“Dangerous!”

It looked as if the situation would only worsen.

At that moment, the assistant looked at Baek Dong-seok, but Baek shook his head.

“It’s not over yet.”

He believed that Kang Min-hyuk could do it.

His eyes were on the Goblin, but there was no sign of fear.
