Chapter 200 Difficulties
"good, very good, excellent!"
The principal of the magic academy, who was clearly dressed in decent clothes but looked a bit like an uncle at a construction site, was full of praise for the magic professor Dulan and Annan next to him.
The principal smiled and stroked the school desk, which had become as smooth as new.
Ten seconds ago, this old table that was rummaged through in the warehouse was visibly dirty, but with the use of life magic, it became as clean as if it had been carefully wiped and polished countless times.
"Professor Marquez, you have done a great job! Congratulations on finally making a breakthrough in your research! I hope you will continue to work hard in the future!"
The principal, who seemed a bit ordinary, promised to give Dulan more research funds and resources in the future. As long as the life department magic can produce more results, everything will be fine.
Dulan, who wore a professional smile, dealt with the principal's enthusiasm skillfully.
Dulan has known this principal for a long time, and to be honest, this is the first time he has seen such an eager attitude from his old colleague.
As far as he knew, the principal had no ambitions. The principal, who was about to retire in a few years, wanted to spend his last days smoothly.
However, since it is a rare achievement in his own school, it is not surprising that the principal would be so happy.
It's a little troublesome to deal with, but it's not long before the principal won't come to visit the class every day.
"call."
After finally satisfying the principal and sending him away, Dulan was finally able to start his research project again.
"Annan, I estimate that many people will come to visit us during this period. You have to be prepared. When the paper is officially announced to the world, it will only become more lively."
Naturally, it is impossible for Dulan to write a paper on life-related magic in private and give it to international magic organizations and journals for publication. He has always been a professor at the local official magic academy, and he can be regarded as using official resources to study it. , no matter what, the boss must be notified at the same time.
When the higher-ups learned that the unfavorable magic research project had made a major breakthrough, they sent people to check it out with hesitation, and the principal was the first to come to check the results.
Now that the principal has seen the results and confirmed the completion of the magic in the life department, there will definitely be more social exchanges in the coming time.
Dulan knew that socializing was necessary. Even if it was a waste of his research time, he had to deal with it appropriately.
"If anyone else wants to check the results of life magic in the future, I'll have to ask you again."
"I understand."
Of course Annan knew that this would happen after the results of the life magic were made public. Although he didn't really want to socialize, he always had to show off.
In any case, even if he is the only magician in the world who can use life magic, he is only a student and cannot put on any airs.
"Professor, it would be great if you could master the Cleansing Charm soon."
"You are just afraid of trouble, even though I am the same..."
The life magic has not been completed for a long time. Dulan is busy researching and writing papers every day. Even if he took time to practice, he could not master it so quickly.
Moreover, to a certain extent, the cleaning spell of life magic cannot be said to be completed.
"The cleaning spell is indeed useful, but so far, it can only be effective on tables. The effect is too single. We still need to research and develop it."
The cleaning spell that Annan successfully used in a flash of inspiration, for some reason only works on things like tables. If the cleaning spell is used on other places, such as chairs or clothes, it will have no effect at all.
Regarding this result, Annan did not expect it to be like this, and he also did not understand why it was like this.
"Magic has always been a very idealistic attribute. The cleaning spell you obtained with your wonderful hands is very likely to change due to your thoughts and ideas. This magic has not yet been completely stabilized, nor has it fully exerted its potential. and effects.”
Duran gave an example using the disarming magic that Annan had finally mastered recently.
"The magic of disarm can only disarm other people's weapons. Then the question arises. If the target of the magic is holding a knife and fork used for eating, is this type of tableware considered a weapon? Disarm can have an effect. ?"
Duran would not delay in explaining the problem. After letting the students think for a while, he immediately gave the conclusion and answer.
"The answer is it depends on the person."
Disarming will have different effects depending on the user.
Some magicians can disarm even if the target is not holding a weapon, but some magicians cannot do this.
As long as the object held by the opponent is recognized as a weapon, the disarming magic will work no matter what kind of object it is, even if it is just a pen.
This kind of determination is a kind of firmness in mind and thinking, and a kind of persistence in will.
"This is the influence of the idealistic nature of magic. It will change based on the magician's own thoughts. His own opinions and concepts will indeed affect the effect of magic."
In other words, the cleansing spell created by Annan is currently restricted due to the creator's own ideas.
"When you first used the Cleaning Spell, your target was the table next to you. However, this success also limited your concept and prevented you from completely letting go. This may have caused the Cleaning Spell to affect other targets. Reasons why it doesn’t work.”
"Thoughts and thoughts."
Annan doesn't even know how to say that the magic system in this world is better.
It seems reasonable that magic will change according to the magician's own thoughts, but it does cause trouble for people.
"No wonder the magic system in this world has been unable to be integrated into modern scientific theories, because it is not scientific at all."
Annan took the wand and tried to use the cleaning spell on all the messy and dirty things around him.
These old things that were moved from the school warehouse were naturally used specifically to verify the magic of life.
"Let go of your thoughts and don't be bound by your own opinions and ideas. It's easy to say but a little difficult to do."
Just like he didn't know why he was able to create a cleaning spell, Annan didn't know how to make the cleaning spell work on other items.
Annan's current research topic is to solve this somewhat unclear idealistic problem.
Annan took the professor's previous research materials and looked at them carefully, trying to get the same whim of inspiration that day. Unfortunately, this kind of opportunity, which is almost equivalent to a miracle, cannot be repeated so easily.
"This is the difficulty in the study of magic. The problem of idealism has become a difficulty that cannot be solved by theory and logic... Speaking of which, how come I, a student who has been in school for less than a month, have started doing academic research on magic?"
