I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy

Finally, after completing all the solutions, Alterisha lightly tapped the whiteboard with her marker and turned around.

Some alchemists screamed in astonishment, while others ran outside or sat in disbelief.

It was a glorious realization that they could stand at the starting point of a new era, where history was being rewritten.

"AAAAHHH!"

"This is insane! It's truly insane!"

Not even the calmest alchemists could mediate this chaos. In fact, they themselves were bewildered. Who could possibly mediate anyone in such a situation?

"Argh..."

Now, no one looked at Maizen anymore. It seemed as if Alterisha had cast a shadow over them all.

The whiteboard they had requested was still not there.

The apprentice who had gone out to get it completely forgot about it under the surprise brought by Alterisha’s solutions.

Thud! Thud!

Every vein on Maizen’s body pulsated with anger.

"I can't accept it. Those fools are deceiving you all, can't you see? The formulas are similar. That solution there is just like mine. There's no doubt about it. They plagiarized my formula."

"Why don't you understand?"

"How can a mere woman in her twenties solve all these problems on her own? Even I, with the support of dozens of researchers, barely solved this four problems!"

“Ugh, ugh...!"

He looked at Alterisha with eyes pulsating with blood vessels.

"Al...tesia…”

"Professor?"

"In that sinister atmosphere, Alterisha took a step back involuntarily.

Baek Yu-Seol, with the staff secretly grasped in his arms, blocked Alterisha’s path.

"How long are you going to keep deceiving and undermining me? Modifying the stolen thesis and disguising it as your own... Do you enjoy it?"

"Hey! Security! Stop him!"

Professor Maizen’s condition was peculiar.

The alchemists stood up from their seats, and the facilitator quickly took control of the situation.

At that moment, when the magic warriors standing guard were about to move swiftly.

Before Baek Yu-Seol, the security personnel, and Beaurock Stoneforge, Alterisha was the first to shout.

"Stop it, admit it!!"

Finally, Professor Maizen showed a normal reaction for the first time. He eerily turned his head to face them and parted his lips to utter a murmur.

"What... did you say?"

There was something eerie and terrifying about his expression, but Alterisha had no intention of stopping here.

"My, my paper is clearly better than yours, Professor! Was stealing the paper you presented earlier not enough? How much more of my paper do you want to steal before your conscience kicks in?"

The alchemists murmured in discontent.

"What is it?"

"That Red Potion paper from earlier... was it actually stolen from the assistant?"

"Hmm, well... something did seem off..."

Countless thoughts raced through Alterisha’s mind.

Those were the bitter memories with Professor Maizen.

"You foolish girl. Is that all you're capable of?"

"I'm sorry."

"I told you to prepare properly! How many times do I have to say it for you to understand?"

"But, but I did it as you wanted, Professor..."

"Even if I said something wrong, you should have understood! You've worked under me for years, and you still can't do that?!"

"I'm sorry! Please, please don't kick me out!"

"Listen carefully. Without me, you won't even set foot in this academic field. You understand, right? So do it properly!"

She had been deceived, robbed, oppressed, and endured immense pain under Professor Maizen. She wanted to cry, but she had to hold it in. All those memories came flooding back.

That surge of emotions.

"Professor…”

She exploded all at once.

"Professor, you're more of a fool than I am!!"

Silence.

With a timid yet resolute statement, all the alchemists opened their mouths wide in astonishment.

"Uh... uh..."

Even Professor Maizen froze, wide-eyed.

"Hahaha!" Beaurock Stoneforge burst into laughter. "It's amusing. Today's presentation is truly amusing!"

Perhaps due to his laughter, Maizen also belatedly regained his composure and spoke up.

But... it would have been better if he hadn't regained his composure.

Thanks to his regaining of reason, Maizen quickly grasped the situation he was in.

‘What am I doing right now?’

He looked around the hall.

Former colleagues, acquaintances, companions, those brothers who respected each other. All of them were looking at him with faces that seemed to convey disgust and pity.

"No, no. It's not true! Look! This woman stole my paper! Why, why don't you understand?"

No one responded to his words.

Perhaps it was because he was already partially out of his mind, but there was no longer any worth in continuing the connection with the professor who had tried to plagiarize Assistant Alterisha’s paper twice.

"Take him out."

"No... no, aahh!"

With a cold remark from Moderator, the situation was concluded as two security guards dragged Maizen out.

Thump!

"Ughhh..."

Maybe because all the tension was released, several bodyguards in suits and officials rushed over and took care of Alterisha as she sat down on the floor.

"Are you alright, Assistant Alterisha? Here, we have water and a towel."

"Would you like to take some medicine?"

"There's a university hospital nearby that I operate. Would you like to have a check-up for a moment?"

"Haha, hahaha..."

With the stark change in treatment, Alterisha could finally realize what she had done.

Thump!

She lifted her head and looked at Baek Yu-Seol, who was approaching her. He was smiling as always, but for some reason, that smile today felt unforgettable.

"Assistant Alterisha, you've worked hard today." Baek Yu-Seol reached out his hand and spoke, and Alterisha warmly smiled and shook his hand.

"Thank you!"
