Chapter 42: The Fool's Wish
"Hmph~ This guy, why wasn't he dealt with by the academy's guards, are those guards blind? I didn't see that I'm lying on the bed now, he violated the school rules and deliberately hurt people, he should be kicked out of Patus Academy!" Dennis roared with a hideous expression.

"There seemed to be someone behind him, and the guards seemed to have been instructed by the dean to pretend not to know about the matter. A man spoke of what he had found on his investigation, one of the three spellcasters of his day, and the family behind it was the Viscount of the Ona Empire.
"Impossible, I've already checked his details, he is a civilian from the border town of the Ona Empire, how can there be any big people to protect him, even if there is, it is possible that it is bigger than the earl!"
"I don't know... If it's something related to the head of the academy, it's basically impossible to investigate. ”
"No~ Even if someone protects him, I will kill him, no matter what method is used. Dennis yelled hysterically like a gambler blocking everything.
"It's not necessarily impossible, we can let the senior seniors of the Magic Sorting Academy make a move, and we are about to go to the final assessment of the Magic Branch, this is a good opportunity. ”
The assessment of the Magic Branch, which allowed the students to survive alone for three days on the outskirts of the Starry Night Forest, not far outside of Danlipton City, was a severe assessment, and was recognized by all the students of Patus Academy as second only to the Literature Branch. However, there is one thing that is more awe-inspiring than the assessment of the Literature Branch, and that is the accident.
If the literary assessment is very difficult, but at least it will not be life-threatening, but the assessment of the magic branch is not only very difficult, but also may die!
In the Starry Night Forest, which is full of monsters, even if there is a guard team to protect it, it is impossible to ensure that there will be absolutely no accidents, although the probability of accidents happening is extremely low, but it is not zero after all. As long as it's not a zero-chance thing, it can happen.
"No matter what it takes, I must see his body!" Dennis said grimly.

Muse is now almost tired of being in Tai'an's research room, Tai'an, as a fifth-level spellcaster, would have been enough to serve as a two-star mentor, but after Tai'an broke through the fifth-level spellcaster, he concentrated on studying theories, and did not have much research on magic above the fourth ring, coupled with the rumors that he suffered from ten years of studying and copying spells but gaining nothing, so that Tai'an could only serve as a one-star mentor.
But even so, Tai'an's background is far more than that of ordinary one-star tutors, and he used his own funds to buy a research room from the academy. As an inquirer, you must have your own research room, and for this, Tai'an has paid almost half of his fortune.
Tai'an transported his magic power into the machine in front of him, and the gears all over the machine slowly rotated as the magic power was transported. The magic power operates according to the specific circuit of the machine, which is condensed into three magic circuits.
This is not a magic circuit that condenses magic, but a reasoning model designed by a frame projection, which cannot condense any magic, but can only simulate the form of a magic circuit.
Muse learned about the price of the instrument, which was said to cost 10 million gold coins. Moreover, in the general chamber of commerce, there is no way to procure, and only people who have a great relationship with the alchemy workshop can buy this thing.
At best, this frame projection can only simulate the magic loop form equivalent to the magic level of the three rings, but at this stage, it is sufficient.
At this point, the magic circuit of this projection simulation is only one ring of magic intensity, and there is no doubt that Taian and Muse are working on how to apply duplicate spells to one ring of magic.
The form of the one-ring magic is qualitatively different from the zero-ring magic, and the usual zero-ring magic has only one magic circuit, and only a few have a measured magic circuit. The form of the One Ring Magic is composed of at least three magic circuits, and the strongest known One Ring magic has nine magic circuits. Generally speaking, the more mana circuits there are, the stronger the magic is.
Even the minimum standard of one-ring magic, after trial and error, no matter how much Tai'an strengthened his mental stimulation, he couldn't make the magic circuit enter the splitting step, and it was already so difficult to stimulate the three magic circuits at the same time, let alone more.
According to the hypothesis proposed by Muse, in order to implement the new concept of division, the first division must first be completed by means of a promotion stimulus.
The form of the magic circuit of the first ring of magic strength is far more complex than that of the zero ring of magic, and it is difficult to split the magic circuit using conventional stimulation methods.
"Teacher, I have an idea, last time you said that the form of ancient magic is very powerful, but the flaw lies in the magic oscillation of the structure, which leads to the instability of the magic power, so how to use the magic circuit constructed by the ancient ring magic, whether it can complete the split. Muse Ne suggested.
"Muse, your idea is good, but don't forget that the center of this issue is not to split the magic circuit, but how to split it without danger. The magic circuit of the ancient magic structure is indeed prone to splitting due to its instability, but don't forget, if it is a magic form of sake, the caster cannot ensure that he can fully grasp the magic he casts until he is stimulated by mental power, let alone the magic form that is gathered by the more and more oscillating forms after stimulation. Taian vetoed Muse's idea.
Muse Ne nodded thoughtfully, Tai'an was right, no matter how powerful the magic was, if it couldn't be used, it would be meaningless.
"Okay, let's get here today, I'm going to have a class later, you can stay here and study it carefully, I'm sure you already understand the operation steps of this instrument." Be careful, don't break it. If you don't understand anything, there is a study next to it, which contains the theories I have learned over the years, and you should be able to find the answers from them. ”
Tai'an smiled with relief, Muse is like an extremely dry sponge, never sucking water on its own, its theoretical background is growing almost every day with the naked eye, he is sincerely happy for Muse, he knows that maybe in the near future, there is nothing to teach. All he could do was pass on his knowledge to Muse at this moment, without reservation.
"Thank you, teacher. Muse said happily.
"You will be a good inquirer in the future, I will not be able to be a member of the Gate of Truth in my life, and you will inherit my long-cherished wish and even reach a higher peak. “
"The Gate of Truth?" Muse was puzzled, the first time he had heard the term.
"It's not surprising that you don't know, the vast majority of spellcasters don't even know about this organization, and some spellcasters don't even know about the position of an inquirer. The pursuit of us inquirers is to pursue the truth of the world, and if we can see the truth for what it is while we are alive, we will have no regrets. It is rumored that the door of truth contains all the mysteries and truths of this world, and if everything we do is to get close to the truth, then the door of truth may be the closest place to the truth, as it literally, is the threshold before the truth. It is so difficult to see the truth with one's own eyes, and no living being has ever done so, and becoming a member of the Gate of Truth has become the pursuit of most inquirers. Taean said with a look of remembrance, as if remembering memories of the past.
"Well, let's not talk about that, you have extraordinary qualifications as an inquirer, but you're still far from the door of truth. Tai'an shook his head, and without waiting for Musene to ask, he consciously cut off the topic.
"Okay, the students will try. ”
"I have no doubt about this, and what pleases me most about you is not your excellent learning ability or imagination that is not constrained by common sense, but your unwavering diligence. Taian said with a smile.
A genius can't make Tai'an so willing to pass on what he has learned all his life without reservation, what really touches Tai'an is the heart of Muse.
Seeing Tai'an leave, Muse Ne seemed to see this back revealing a sense of helplessness and relief. He knew that he could not fulfill his only long-cherished wish in life, but thankfully, someone would carry on his long-cherished wish and move on.
