A pig fights a giant gorilla. It was hard for Lucas to say that Baul was like a small pig, while Professor Bathilda was like a giant animal. She is a skilled teacher of earth magic techniques, creating golems that look like gorillas and have great strength.
They want to prove that Baul is right and great. The first opportunity for students to fight a teacher. Lucas sat next to Peter and watched the fight between Baul and Professor Bathilda.
There was that little coughing sound again that sometimes disturbed Lucas. A girl with long hair tied in a ponytail was staring at him from above the bleachers. Lucas didn't understand at all. This is his first time in the academy, but he already has enemies.
Even though Lucas is handsome and cute, he is the type most girls like. There is one thing that finally makes the girls think long and hard about making Lucas the type of man they dream of.
He is a troublemaker and likes to play pranks. He's also short and small. No girl likes a boy like that. Besides, Lucas spends more time having fun than looking for a girlfriend.
How ridiculous. They exchanged sharp, deadly glances, but Lucas didn't know the girl with the ponytail at all.
"Lucas, do you like this girl?" A very innocent and stupid question from Peter.
"There's no way I'd like that horrible girl. How frightening." Lucas turned his face back to the arena, holding back his blush. Not because he was embarrassed, but because he was holding back his annoyance.
Professor Bathilda demonstrated the use of magic and martial arts techniques, while Baul used magic techniques more than martial arts techniques. The golem moved and made a fist. Baul used a fire magic technique to counterattack, but the golem was very hard and made of earth. He didn't even feel any burning on his body because the creature didn't feel any pain at all.
Baul's body was as fat as a pig's, he walked slowly, and the golem kept hitting him. His fire magic technique was weak and could only burn, but the intensity of the fire was not that great.
The greater the power of the flame, of course, it can destroy the golem, unfortunately, the fire attack is not great. He still needed to learn a lot of elemental magic techniques, and Baul only used fire magic techniques, he did not attack with martial arts at all.
He was unaware of Professor Bathilda's presence. The woman's hands were covered with hard earth, the hard blow made Baul roll like a ball.
What a pity. Baul really is a good punching bag.
"Relying only on fire magic while the enemy tries to destroy your defenses. What if you meet a magician who can use martial arts or a weapon user? You will die on the battlefield." Professor Bathilda raised her voice even more, appearing fierce and determined.
This is his first time entering the world of magic and studying at an academic level, there is not much difference, Lucas has been learning martial arts and using weapons since he was little. Apart from basketball and swimming, which are his favorite sports, martial arts and using weapons are his hobbies.
Baul cried like a child, not accepting such cruel treatment. His parents were powerful people in the government. He could complain to his father and create new problems.
But Lucas was much more powerful, his grandfather was a faction leader in the government.
Without any respect for a teacher, he snorted and stared fiercely between Lucas and Professor Bathilda. Just get out of the arena.
Seriously. Such a little pig is a wizard and a student of the Illois Magic Academy?
"Lucas."
The lessons with Professor Bathilda were quite enjoyable, except for learning self-defense and the use of weapons. Although there was a bit of chaos. But no one was bothered at all, in fact, everyone forgot that Baul had gone somewhere.
Lucas fights Professor Bathilda. The previous battle had made Lucas understand how it worked. The golem is earth magic, using fire magic will certainly destroy the golem, but a small amount of power will not necessarily topple it. In addition, Professor Bathilda joins the fight, pitting Lucas against two humans.
Professor Bathilda uses her hands, which are covered in earth magic, to increase the power of the attack. Lucas blocks the blow with his palm, but doesn't give the golem room to land an attack.
After blocking Professor Bathilda's blow, Lucas twisted his body and channeled mana into his palm. Such great mana power. In one fell swoop, the Golem's left hand was destroyed. Snow fell on his head.
This strange thing has happened many times. When Lucas unleashes his most powerful blow, snow will suddenly fall from the sky, appearing out of nowhere.
The students who watched the fight between Lucas and Professor Bathilda were all as pensive as statues, and some were amazed.

A man was wearing a dark blue suit with gold buttons that glowed and looked luxurious. The man looked like a teenager, but he was actually an adult. The man joined the crowd watching the event unfold before their eyes. An adjacent two-story house with a bakery on the side.
The three-story bakery was in good condition, but not the two-story house, which was reduced to rubble. It was like a gas explosion, but it only destroyed a two-story house, not the surrounding area, which suffered only minor damage.
People were crowding around, whispers were getting louder, and the camera was flying around in his head. He put on a friendly face and mingled with the locals.
"Sorry, I wanted to ask. What happened to this house?" The man in the suit asked an old man with a mustache.
"Very scary. Very scary. It wasn't a gas explosion, but a possible attack by a magical beast." The mustachioed man's face was red and angry. "This has gone too far. They should be protecting us, they are the ones making a mess. Good relations between wizards and non-wizards?! It doesn't make any sense at all."
"Oh, like that. How unfortunate."
The man in the suit replied with a smile and did not ask any more questions, seeing the tense situation of the crowd. There is a camp between wizards and non-wizards, they give each other cynical looks and hate each other.
Nothing guarantees that a world inhabited by wizards and non-wizards will be peaceful; instead, there will be strife between them.
Nothing like this had ever happened before, but the increasing number of mysterious attacks naturally kept the wizards busy dealing with the problems that arose.
The two-story house was not just destroyed by a gas explosion, but there was a mystery that the man was looking for.
The ringing sound came from his jacket pocket as he saw the screen of his cell phone vibrating. Someone was contacting him.
"I'm investigating right now. Another house has been destroyed, possibly a mid-level or high-level magical beast attack. I need to confirm it again. You seem to be in a good mood. Two people caught your attention?" The uniformed man chuckled, but his laughter had to stop.
His feet on the ground suddenly shook, the vibrations slowly getting louder. The people at the scene panicked and asked questions. They rushed to the side, saw cracks in the ground, and it seemed as if the ground was rising up. The crowd was shocked to see a fairly wide crack in the middle of the road, vehicles flying low due to the damage to the road, a magnetic field installed along the road to cause vehicles to fly low. Several vehicles immediately fell onto the destroyed road. Doesn't cause much damage or injury to the victim. It's just that they're still shocked and shaken.
"Very interesting. Maybe it's not a magic beast," the man said, tilting his head. It was as if he had a new toy.

It wasn't snowing today, and it wasn't winter yet. But the snow kept coming, and without realizing it, Lucas was walking farther and farther away from the dormitory. It was as if someone was directing him to a place Lucas didn't want to go. The moon appears bright blue. For the first time, Lucas saw a very beautiful moon, and even from a distance, the moon looked larger.
Gradually, the path began to change, the path Lucas took led to a grass field, and the sound of crickets could be heard at night. The Illois Magic Academy was on the outskirts of the city, but in the more than a week Lucas had been wandering around the academy grounds, he had never come across a place as beautiful as this. Even the moon shone in a warm light.
The path disappeared, giving way to grassland. A person was standing in the middle of the moon, with a very beautiful bluish moon in the background. The man's face appeared.
Lucas dreams of a meadow, a blue moon, and the figure of a man with his back to him. This time, he could clearly see the figure of the man, who had messy silver hair, wore elegant clothes, and showed that the man was very strong.
One thing he could not believe with his own eyes was that the man had the same blue eyes that were as bright as the moon. When exposed to moonlight, those blue eyes glowed beautifully.
The man's face was almost identical to his, although the difference in height between him and the man was too great. The man looked like him, and the man was the same as the statue in the city library.
"Finally, I can see you again and show my true face. Unfortunately, my soul was not completely reborn. Reincarnation is not perfect, and I can only see you from a distance. Oh my reincarnation."
Lucas didn't understand what the strange man was saying. Reincarnation?
The man was saying that Lucas was reincarnated?
"Not yet. My soul is on the brink of life and death, my soul is truly in suspended animation. But you are the chosen one, even though you are not my descendant. I give you all my strength and I will always see you in me, Lucas Mathias." The man held out his hand, a ball of bluish light appearing in his palm.
"My name is Lucas Granville. I did not completely defeat the Dark Witch, this person was sealed in a place where he will not be able to get out for a while. I will come back to you, Lucas Mathias, but you must know that your past is very dark and cruel. You don't remember it, but I will show you."
The blue light grew brighter, illuminating a large area of grassland. Lucas could see nothing, the light was too blinding. The blinding light gave way to emptiness and something so oppressive. The place Lucas saw was dark, only moonlight illuminated the room, but not completely.
