“Oh, the headmaster isn’t coming? Because there’s class? The headmaster teaches, too?” As much as it was important to be angry at the headmaster’s irresponsibility, it was equally important to be polite with anyone connected to the school. Yohan apologized for making her come for nothing and explained that the headmaster wouldn’t be arriving. The witch blinked in surprise and took off her beret. “No need to apologize! It might look fine, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
“Let’s clean up the area first.” When Mikael snapped his fingers, the black masses that had been attacking Yohan flattened instantly into one compressed heap. His silent spellcasting was as impressive as always, but Yohan still couldn’t believe the headmaster had sent a student in his place. “Looks like the urgent part’s settled. Now, should I ask why you’re here?” “Ah.” Mikael’s question pulled Yohan out of his thoughts about the headmaster’s negligence. Caught by his…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
During the break after second period, Yohan ran into a problem while heading to the Herbology classroom to prepare for the next class. “The hallway to the classroom’s blocked?” At his question, Suhyeok, who had stopped him on the stairs to explain the situation, shook his head in disbelief. “Yes. It’s completely covered in some weird black sticky stuff. It doesn’t burn, and you can’t cut it either. Melek tried to force his way through, and the thing swallowed him. It looked…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
But Yohan had his own position too. Nothing would change if he stayed still. He was buried under a mountain of tests and could barely breathe, so it was impossible for him to just sit there calmly. Yohan pointed to the academic schedule posted on the wall. Suhyeok and his friends turned their heads. “What’s that?” “They say it’s the academic schedule. Hmm… there’s a monthly assessment, a dormitory group evaluation, then a short festival, and after that a comprehensive test and the…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
“Then let’s focus on the fact that today you were able to use divine power at a distance from your body.” In the end, Mikael adjusted the goal. It was a little humiliating, but Yohan didn’t yet have the skill to suddenly become a prodigy and do everything Mikael said, so he accepted it. …I’ll just keep practicing whenever I have time. He wasn’t satisfied leaving things like that, so during break time he secretly added an extra training slot to his schedule. After finishing the…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
This conversation wasn’t meant to attack him, probe him, or make him uncomfortable. Yohan’s grip on his arm wasn’t strong enough to keep him from pulling away. If Mikael really wanted to, he could have shaken him off at any moment. “What I mean is… that’s your nature, Mikael. I just don’t want you to forget it.” “…” Yohan had more to say, but he stopped. Adding more would only water down the meaning. Mikael didn’t reply, but he didn’t pull his hand away either. His…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
The betrayal left Yohan staring wide-eyed, until his friends gently patted his shoulder. “Don’t cry, Yohan. Your lecture was amazing.” “Yes. You have no idea how kind and helpful you were. I’ve never had a class like that before.” “You’re the best teacher we’ve ever had.” “You were really kind!” “We’ll count on you from now on, Yohan!” “You’re the best, Yohan!” “Become a professor, Yohan!” “…” At first, their words sounded like warm…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
“…Your outfit is quite extravagant today.” Even though he was only acting as a temporary professor, the headmaster arrived ten minutes late, laughing cheerfully like a fool. Yohan couldn’t help but doubt whether it was wise to let someone like him teach, but he chose his words carefully as he commented on the bizarre clothing. The headmaster straightened his back, adopting a dignified posture. “A headmaster and a professor are different, so the clothes must be different…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
“…He said he’s going to bring someone out?” Yohan thought about the headmaster’s parting words, his expression thoughtful, before he found himself surrounded by his classmates from Divine Studies. “…Sorry we couldn’t help you, Yohan.” “Yes, I’m sorry too. We were just… really desperate.” “Thank you, Yohan Herse!” “You too, Mikael!” “Right, Mikael, I never thought you’d step up like that. I’ll never forget this favor. Every night when I pray, I’ll…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
But contrary to Yohan’s worries, the nameless headmaster didn’t dump the cleanup work on the students. He simply snapped his fingers and stopped the time of the entire building. The time of the building itself. The flames that had been consuming it froze in place, still glowing but motionless. The collapsing structure, caught mid-fall, stopped with debris suspended in midair. In an instant, the flow of time around the building had halted, and Yohan’s eyes widened. “…Is that even…- 291.0 K • Ongoing
