13 – Lessons from assistant instructors.

A week passed quickly after Ed was hired as an assistant instructor.

In a way, it was a very short period to prepare for class, but originally all the necromancers recruited by Glodia had to do was move the skeleton. A skeleton holding a weapon threatens the student, and the student knocks the skeleton down with magic bullets as usual. So I thought that I could withstand the pincer attack of the 3rd skeleton, and I wrote it down as a performance evaluation in the syllabus and submitted it, and it passed.

Originally, it should have been a little simpler than the practice battle with monsters in the first semester, but the ‘magic madman’ Hosen Kyu and the ‘special class’ necromancer Ed met and changed the contents of the class, and Glodia, who was plagued by parents, passed the changed plan. As a result, a lecture that was incomparable to what Glodia initially envisioned was born.

And on the day that the lecture started, the students taking Glodia’s class were sitting in the audience at the first competition hall. Not long after, Professor Glodia, with shoulder-length purple hair, and Ed, with blue-silver hair, stood in front of the students.

“Did everyone have a good weekend?”

Glodia smiled and said to the students, but the atmosphere was quite chilly. Thinking that being able to talk comfortably with students as a young professor would be poisonous at times like this, Glodia continued the following story.

“As rumors have spread in Cetin, everyone knows, but the person next to me is Assistant Instructor Ed. A necromancer from the north, he will give you the experience of fighting a necromancer. Anyone have any questions?”

Then the students quickly raised their hands. Among them, Glodia pointed out Vaina, a blonde, blue-eyed female student who seemed to be asking normal questions.

“Vena, what are you curious about?”

“Professor, are you safe?”

“Yes. I will guarantee your safety.”

And as the next student, Wenbert Vianos, who was near Baina, was pointed out.

“Wenbert, any other questions?”

“Is it more difficult than hunting monsters in the first semester?”

“Yes. It will be more difficult. Safer, more difficult. Better to try it once than ask a hundred times. You can have a total of four practice sessions like today. I teach you twice a week, right? And a third. We’ll do a performance evaluation during the week. Since it’s a purification practice, let’s do more than talk? Ah. Instructor Ed, do you have something to say?”

Glodia said to Ed, who had been forgetting while leading the mood. Ed nodded slightly and took one step forward.

“If I was hostile, you are all dead now.”

“What are you talking about!”

“Aren’t necromancers arrogant?”

“Get me out of Cetin!”

The students who were seated reacted violently as if they had forgotten that Ed was standing in front of them as an assistant instructor.

“If a necromancer you really dislike is coming to class, shouldn’t you prepare some basic defense magic? You never know when you’ll be cursed, when you’ll get your summons out of subspace, or when you’ll be poisoned.”

Ed stretched out his hand toward the students sitting in the front row and drew them across. At that moment, the students sitting in the front row felt a slight nausea.

“Oops…”

“Wow…”

“What? Are you guys kidding me?”

When students in the front row reacted with curses, students sitting in the back row patted each other on the back, or smart students used blessings to lift the curse.

– perfect

Ed snapped his fingers, and the curse on the students in the front row was lifted, followed by three skeletons with shields and swords appearing from the subspace.

“Aww?!”

“Skeleton!!!”

The students were quite surprised because he summoned a skeleton right after Ed used the curse, and the really fast student shot a magic bullet at the skeleton.

Kang!

A skeleton raised his shield to block the flying magic bullet, and while other students were also aiming at the skeleton with their hands, Ed said.

“Professor Glodia, could you give the student who just shot the magic bullet an extra point?”

“Yes. I will.”

“It’s like this. I used it slowly one after another for now, but what if I summoned a skeleton while using the curse and started attacking right away? And one more left?”

“poison…!”

And one student shouted the poison Ed mentioned.

“Unfortunately, there is no poison.”

Seeing this, Ed laughed and said, but the students felt great anger.

“This lesson aims to make sure that you can fight skeletons as ‘enemies’. So, shall we begin?”

After hearing Ed’s words, Glodia came forward and started directing traffic.

“Come forward two by two from the left in the second row.

“It’s ruined! It’s the first time!”

“I’m sitting in the wrong seat…!”

Two female students hesitated and walked forward. Ed said while putting a skeleton into the subspace.

“Each person needs to be in charge of one skeleton. The magic bullets that can be used are magic bullets, and weapons can be used as long as they can be used.”

One girl stood in front of the skeleton with her bare hands, while the other girl stood in front with a mace.

“I’ll send you the signal to start.”

Ed said after seeing the two female students slightly nodding their heads after hearing Ed’s words.

“preparation.”

The bare-handed girl immediately raised her right hand and aimed at the skeleton, while the girl holding the mace held it tightly with both hands.

“start.”

The moment Ed shouted “start”, black energy gushed out from the skeleton’s body as if toppling over.

“Kyaaak!”

“what!”

While the two female students were very surprised and embarrassed, the skeleton charged forward with its shield in front.

– Kang!

The first person to be subdued was a female student who was not holding a weapon. She was surprised by the skeleton’s energy and lost her aim and fired three shots, but there was only one thing the skeleton had to block. A nearby skeleton aimed a sword at her neck, and the girl raised her hands up to show her willingness to surrender.

– Kaang!

The female student holding the mace was just as surprised as the other female students, but calmly swung her mace. However, with a mace, the skeleton holding a sword and shield could not respond to the flexible switch between attack and defense, so the practice sword holding the skeleton touched his side. The female student who admitted defeat also stepped back with a bewildered face.

“This is what a necromancer handles and fights with skeletons.”

Ed took the two skeletons back. The two female students went back to their seats with dazed faces, as if they couldn’t believe that they had been defeated so quickly.

“Okay. You two are next.”

After checking the physical condition of the students in the front row, Glodia dismissed the next student.

“Two weeks like this”

Ed felt that although it was a little difficult to repeat actions like this, he could do it until the end.

‘You used an interesting method?’

From the top of the tower, fluttering platinum hair, Principal Enild Setin Quasar watched the first training ground. There are two things students need to learn in that class. It is not to be ‘frightened’ by the skeleton, and to realize the difference between the skeleton, which contains spontaneous hatred and anger, and the ‘skeleton’ controlled by the necromancer.

It is easy to realize that the skeletons controlled by the necromancer are different from other skeletons, as you can tell just by looking at them flexibly fighting. However, Enild was also curious about how to give ‘scare’, but Ed gave a sense of intimidation to the students by releasing the mana of the core in an instant.

‘It’s similar to a curse.’

Mana, who has the nature of Coresis, used it very well to give people who handle harmonics an ominous feeling. I didn’t use a curse, but I could expect a similar effect to a curse.

From the student’s point of view, there was only one magic bullet that could be used to run the armed skeleton in front of them suddenly emitting an ominous and unpleasant energy, and the students were helplessly deprived of vital points by the skeleton in front of them.

The male students still had a tolerance for fear, so they competed with the skeletons, but the skeletons Ed controlled were stronger than the students expected.

“Three would have been nice from the beginning.”

Enild laughed lightly while making a sound that would make the students panic when they heard it.

***

Soon enough, every student was fighting a 1:1 battle with a skeleton. The class progressed quickly because most of the students were helpless. Among them, Wenbert, who asked if it was more difficult than hunting monsters, lasted quite a long time. If there were no restrictions on the magic that could be used, Ed thought that there was only one possibility of defeating a skeleton in the first encounter.

Edgar, who finally saw the defeated students sit down, stored the skeleton in the subspace, and Glodia said to the students in frustration.

“Was it harder than I thought? There’s one more chance this week, so you don’t have to die like that. Next week, there won’t be any restrictions on magic, and that’s the same as performance evaluation. Today’s class is over! And that this class isn’t dangerous at all. “If you have a chance to contact your parents, be sure to do so. They are very worried. Everyone disperse!”

“Thank you for your effort.”

Students got up from their seats and moved to the building to take their next class. Ed and Glodia, who saw the students moving around, sat in a rest area near the sparring hall.

“Instructor Ed, you remember that there are two more classes left today, right?”

“Yes. So I quickly overpowered the students. I don’t know if I’ll have time like this again.”

Even the helpless students were more likely to give a blow the next time they met a skeleton. It was initially impossible to defeat calm students with just one skeleton compromised at an appropriate level. It was close to a shortcut using a quasi-curse that releases mana from the core to make you feel intimidated and shrink your body, but this method will not continue to work.

“Ah. Cymus is in the next class.”

At that time, Glodia said as if she had suddenly remembered.

“It won’t work for Cymus.”

For Ed, Cymus has accumulated multiple curses, so he will easily overcome the false curse.

“And, more than I was worried about, I knew that the class was gentlemanly, and the students would be less intimidated because I knew how it was conducted.”

“I have no intention of defeating the students.”

“Whoa. Really? We have to teach. I hope the students learn a lot.”

When Ed saw Glodia, he felt that he really cared for his students. It was because he brought himself as a necromancer to Setin purely for the sake of the students.

“Yes. I hope you learn a lot.”

The break time for the professor and assistant instructors passed very quickly, probably because it was time for a break, and the students from the next class began to gather in the first training ground. Ed found Cymus frowning among them.

‘I’d like to bully him, but I won’t be able to anymore.’

Adding some strength to the skeleton would be fine.
