Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

101 – Historical Discovery (1)

The keyword of eternal life was a very central theme in this novel.

Because the purpose of the black magician, who can be called the common ‘enemy’ of this world right now, was ‘immortality’.

For thousands of years, there has been only one answer that black magicians have come up with for immortality.

It is impossible for a living person not to die.

So, let’s make it move in the ‘dead state’.

No matter how much magic is a mysterious world, mankind has not been able to prevent aging.

But a girl with no foundation did it?

‘No matter how genius he is, it makes no sense.’

Ruid couldn’t believe it at all.

“The left one is my blood. The one on the right is the saintess’s blood.”

“Saint… ?”

“Yes! She asked the saintess to tell her, ‘You are the second to share my blood.’ I realized right away that it was Louis-sama’s intention. Putting aside the rumor that the saintess’ blood has the ability to revive even the dead, I came right after she ordered me to study immortality.”

Ella looked at Ruid with an expression of joy.

“It’s amazing that you have a close relationship with the saintess. She wouldn’t even have a clue if she didn’t have this blood.”

‘… That’s how it happened.’

I said it like a joke because I wanted to stop my growth as a child, but I didn’t know that this would come back.

But even if there was a saintess’s blood, it wouldn’t make sense to find out the secret of her eternal life. This place is medieval. Nothing exists for scientific research.

Ella spread her fingers at the blood in her air.

Then-

Ugh—.

The colorfully written formulas and magic circles on the walls began to glow.

The light divided into several spectrums penetrated the blood.

From noble mtl dot com

Finally, when the Great Magic Circle on the ceiling manifested, a transparent film appeared right in front of it.

“… !”

Ruid finally realized what the harmony of these many magic formulas was for.

What Ella realized was a microscope.

Cellular tissue was visible through the transparent membrane.

It was much larger and more scope than modern microscopes.

“I thought that if there was a secret in the saintess’ blood, I would have to enlarge it very, very large to confirm it. It was harder than I thought, so most of my time was spent on this. Still, the secret was quickly discovered.”

Ella adjusted the angle of the light. Then she saw cells shaped like the letter H.

As Ella uttered her incantation, a very thin laser beam passed from her finger. She hit the exact cell she was looking at.

Profit-

Cells died black with a burning sound.

“This is my blood. And like this-“

The charred dead cells moved slowly, and soon became two.

“When blood is killed, it divides. The phenomenon of natural healing when we are wounded, this must be the principle.”

“Yes, yes.”

Gulp, Louis swallowed.

She felt like she was starting to know something she shouldn’t know.

“But the divided blood is different from before. Do you see My shoes are missing. The length is also shorter than before.”

There was something overlaid at the end of the letter H, but the divided cells did not.

“It continues to divide, but the length gradually shortens, and after about 70 divisions, it completely disappears. This time, I will see the saintess’s blood.”

Ella did the same thing.

She said with a strange smile.

“Damaged tissue is regenerating.”

Again, the cells were divided.

However, it was different from before.

“However, the saintess’ blood has not been shortened, and above all, socks are still on.”

‘Telomeres.’

It was the name of what Ella describes as socks.

I saw it on a science YouTube I watched every day before bed.

I remember at first glance.

The three professors who discovered telomeres all received Nobel Prizes.

It was probably discovered in the late 2000s.

A time when science was developed to some extent.

However, this is the Middle Ages.

The method of counting the years is different, but roughly the year 1500.

In a world where even ‘cells’ have not been discovered, cells that directly affect aging have been discovered.

“These socks are the key. Because the sock protects the tip, it can be regenerated no matter how injured it is. In other words, if you put all these socks on…. According to the theory, it will be possible not only to prevent aging, but also to return the old body to its youth.”

Genius.

Only that word came to Ruid’s mind.

“… Of course, it is practically impossible to wear socks to all these small children. Even so, the study can be said to be successful. One day, I’m sure you’ll find out.”

Ella, who is looking at herself with eyes asking for praise like a big dog, is the genius of the century.

The girl I picked up by chance was not a gemstone with a bright future, but a jewel that was already shining brightly.

“Are you really saying that you are putting my name on an academic journal?”

“… How did you see me?”

Ella was restless. She

Only she herself did not know that she had made great achievements.

A being as great as Ella should be treated much better than now.

Fortunately, she herself was the one who could do that.

“I’m not a bad professor taking away my assistant’s research.”

“But it’s just a theory… “

Ruid was very frustrated with Ella, who showed a wrinkled attitude after finding out the ‘secret of eternal life’.

“It’s a tested theory.”

“Yeah, that’s true. It’s practically impossible. Living eternal life no matter what kind of magic you use.”

Ella was right.

Even in modern times, only cells that affect aging were found, but they did not achieve immortality.

However, there was one crucial difference between Hyundai and this place.

Magic.

There was a mystery that could achieve the impossible with any technology.

‘…… It’s feasible enough.’

The final chapter of the novel.

Black magicians succeed in obtaining ‘eternal life’ in their own way. It’s called ‘mind uploading’, and it developed a magic that transfers human memories and spirits to a new body.

To achieve that great magic, three sacred objects must be used as mediums.

Realizing Ella’s method was the same.

Use the holy relic as a medium to activate ‘regeneration magic’ on all cells that cause aging.

“You need to know your worth. You are truly a great wizard.”

It is said that extremely advanced science is like magic.

Ruid also agreed. Ella was a wizard who could use ‘real magic’.

Smart.

Ruid knocked on the door in front of her.

In order to write in an academic journal, permission from an officially registered archmage was required.

Originally, it would have to go through complicated procedures, but there was one archmage in the academy, so it was possible to skip it.

-Come in.

The door to the president’s office opened.

Clifford, who looked older than before, was sitting in his seat with his sunglasses on.

He frowned as if he couldn’t see well even with his glasses on.

“A student who was expelled, and a professor who doesn’t lecture and only spends his salary.”

Ella asked as she flinched.

“I… Do you remember?”

“Then b*tch, don’t you understand? If you’re the president of the academy, even if you can’t, you have to memorize the faces of all the students. Come in.”

No, Clifford stood up.

She drank tea with her hands behind her back.

The smell of fragrant herbs filled the room.

Clifford, who served appropriate refreshments and tea, scolded me for nothing.

“Why don’t you pretend to help the old man brew tea, tsk tsk.”

“You are still correcting it.”

“Eh, what a mouthful.”

Louise sipped with both her hands full of glasses.

“So, what did you come here for?”

“I have been researching.”

Clifford didn’t like it when the professor visited him from time to time and said, “I’ve been doing research.”

It means that you have neglected your academy work. That’s why he always yelled at me, saying, ‘If you’re going to show off while studying, get out of the magic tower!’

But- Ruid’s research was a different story. Louis was the genius of the century. Even if he stays still, he is a person who gives enormous benefits to the academy, and it is very welcome that he has been doing research.

Above all, research by the youngest member of the Duke of Windsor makes money!

“Heh heh, sorry. After becoming a professor, I thought I was going to lose weight because I only gave one lecture, but to be able to do such an extraordinary job.”

‘Twice.’

Ruid was uncomfortable. He cuts his achievements by as much as half.

“If it’s Ruid’s research, it’s something to be welcomed with open arms. I don’t even want a dissertation. Speak orally I’ll take care of it and put it under your name. However, do the briefing yourself.”

“It’s not me.”

“Huh?”

“This is a study my assistant did.”

Surprised, Ella shook her hands.

“Oh, no. I only helped a little bit.”

“What nonsense.”

“If it weren’t for the blood of the saintess, this research would not have been possible in the first place. This is a very simple thing that anyone can do… “

‘Wow, how much I was gaslighted.’

Ruyd felt sorry for Ella and brought her to tears.

It was like Einstein being exploited by an immature rich boy.

“Heh heh. The student who was expelled for cheating has been doing research?”

Ella stiffened at Clifford’s words.

“That…… “

Ruid said right away.

“That’s a lie.”

“Are you lying?”

“Why did you take a test here? Ella is a genius.”

“Wife, genius.”

Ella’s face turned red with anger.

She opened her mouth like a goldfish.

“Heh heh.”

Clifford chuckled.

“This is a joke. You bastard, the fact that you came despite the hassle must mean that the research itself is real. So, what is the content of the research that the genius studied?”

Ruid spoke without hesitation.

“The magic of magnifying any object up to 1000 times.”

“… !”

‘Immortality shouldn’t be known to the world yet.’

In this world, warlocks are still waking up.

It is difficult for them to know that they have found the clue to immortality.

No, in the first place, ‘eternal life’ was a subject that even a wise man could become a villain.

I put a strong barrier on the academy so I can’t even approach it, but-

After all, Ella wasn’t going to stay at the academy all her life.

Even the microscope alone is a discovery worthy of being called a ‘revolution’.

This is enough to let people know the value of Ella.

“Woah, do you mean a thousand times?”

The act of magnifying something is not very useful for ordinary people, but it is different for wizards.

Looking closely and analyzing is the basis of research. Currently, magic can magnify something up to 20 times.

Clifford immediately recognized its value. No, a magician who had studied even once could not have known this value.

“Not you, but your assistant found it-“

“Yes. I didn’t help at all.”

“Lu, Ruid-sama.”

Ella was at a loss.

“…… If true, this is a great discovery.”

‘Of course not.’

Ruid felt as if his own child had been praised.

None of this would have happened if I hadn’t taken Ella out of Klein Minerva’s workshop.

“That’s why, you can’t post it in the name of your assistant.”

“… Why?”

“Do you think you can handle it? Magnifying an object 1000 times is unprecedented. Even the great Delrin was only 20x. Breaking Delrin’s feat. It’s something that deserves to be blessed. But if it’s a commoner, it’s different.”

Clifford said coolly.

“Who would admit that? Even if they admit it, do the nobles want to keep an eye on the commoners who dare to surpass Delrin? Human jealousy is scary, Ruid. More than you think-“

Ruid made a puzzled expression.

“The president just needs to protect it.”

“Heh heh, you bastard. What power does this old man have? Don’t be stubborn and co-author. As the youngest son of the Duke of Windsor, no one would dare to argue. It is even better for your assistant.”

Ruid could only nod his head. Clifford was right.

“Yes. I will.”

‘It’s not bad to become more and more famous. There are so many achievements that Ella will make in the future.’

Ella has a lot to discover in her future.

What Ruid expected was disease.

If you can learn how to prevent aging in just one month, what about other diseases?

This world can fix a hole in the stomach, but it can’t fix a disease like the Black Death.

With Ella’s abilities, she will be able to prevent various diseases.

I just won’t tell you.

Aging is also a curable disease.
