"Professor, could you possibly help me evaluate my final exam free assignment?"
Liliana Rachel pointed to the papers scattered on her desk.
"Liber, I'm sorry, but I'm busy with personal research outside of class time."
Liber Specula's genius was well-known during class.
It was also true that it made Liliana Rachel's heart race.
But right now, finding the flaws in this paper is a priority.
"I'm trying to do telekinesis."
"I heard you're not good at other magic, right? And if you're going to do telekinesis, you should go to the telekinesis professor."
Liliana turned her gaze back to the paper.
She heard Liber's deflated voice.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Professor. I didn't know you were so busy and I was only thinking about myself. I was going to try it alone, but I suddenly hit a wall... Goodbye."
"Okay, take care. I'm sorry I couldn't help you, Liber."
"Yes, Professor."
At that moment.
Liliana Rachel felt goosebumps run down her spine.
"Wait a minute."
"Yes?"
"You said you were going to try telekinesis, right?"
"Yes."
"But why did you come to me? Don't tell me..."
"I'm going to use mind magic on a psychic to perform telekinesis."
"Liber, are you serious right now?"
"Yes."
"Come over here and sit down."
From that day on, Professor Liliana Rachel and Liber Specula gathered in the lab every night to prepare for today's free assignment evaluation.
Professor Liliana looked at Liber, who was still fidgeting down below.
'I only know that it's theoretically possible, but I've never done it myself.'
While Liber was busy setting up the mind magic.
Professor Sirims Andrian and most of the magic professors from other grades entered the gymnasium.
The gymnasium buzzed with the appearance of the head of the magic department and other faculty members.
"What's going on? What's the matter?"
"Why are professors from other grades flocking to the 2nd grade evaluation?"
"Did they come to see Davian?"
"Oh, is that so?"
The faculty seats, which had been left with a long empty row, were filled one by one by magic professors including Sirims.
Leo Martien, the head of the swordsmanship department, greeted them.
"Welcome, Head of the Magic Department."
"I'm a little late. I was trying to move with the other professors. The 7th grade evaluation ended late."
Camilla Lucia turned around and shouted.
Although the faculty was full of magic seniors.
The eccentric Professor Camilla Lucia was not very formal.
"Professors! If you had come just a little earlier, you could have seen Latia Meridiem and Karin Obelia's performance... no, free assignment evaluation."
Sirims Andrian, the head of the magic department, gave a kind smile.
"That's right. It's a shame."
"It was really amazing! But I'm glad you came before Davian's turn."
In fact.
It was not in Sirims Andrian, the head of the magic department's plan to visit the 2nd grade final exam evaluation.
The reason he brought all the other grade professors here was because Davian had visited him yesterday.
"I've been thinking a lot. There's something I want to show you."
"You mean at the free assignment evaluation tomorrow?"
"Yes. If I keep hiding it, you might only think of me as a promising disciple who you must protect at important moments."
"It sounds like you're saying you want to spread your new achievements widely to the world."
"It's similar. I don't necessarily want to spread it widely to the world, but I thought it would be good for the academy professors to know."
"You don't mean...? Did you absorb the magic power of the great wizard?"
"I think you'll be able to confirm it if you come tomorrow."
Sirims Andrian looked down at the gymnasium below.
"It's Liber Specula's turn."
"Yes, Head of the Magic Department. I heard he prepared mind magic."
"Professor Kinesis."
The Kinesis professor sitting in the front row turned his head.
"Yes, Head of the Magic Department."
"That assistant is really caring for the students. It's Dennis Fion, right? He always volunteers to be the target of mind magic like that."
Kinesis laughed awkwardly.
In fact, he had no idea why Dennis Fion was acting like that.
'He's not usually like that...'
In the meantime.
"Hoo..."
Liber closed his eyes as if he had finished setting up completely.
"Liber Specula, let's start your free assignment."
A while later.
"What? Didn't he say he was going to start?"
"Did he fall asleep?"
"Anyway, he's a strange kid. I heard he's smart, but how did he get into our academy?"
"I'm even more amazed that he hasn't been kicked out yet."
"Isn't it because he's friends with Davian? One word from Davian and the professors all fall for him."
"Is that so?"
At that moment.
"Aaaaaaah!"
Dennis Fion, who was standing in the center of the gymnasium, suddenly grabbed his chest and wailed.
Several professors jumped up.
"Stop it!"
"Pull Liber out right now!"
"That's why mind magic is so dangerous! Staff!"
The gymnasium buzzed.
Only Liliana Rachel, who had her eyes fixed, discovered a single drop of sweat running down Liber's temple.
'Don't give up! Liber Specula!'
Of course, it is dangerous.
Right now, Liber is not simply approaching Assistant Dennis Fion's brainwaves and sending electronic signals to his muscles.
He is trying to move the magic power residing in his heart.
'Just a little more!'
The staff headed towards Liber.
'No! It's done!'
The moment Liliana Rachel tried to put strength into her knees to get up and shout.
A voice full of magic power echoed through the gymnasium.
"Wait a minute. Let's watch a little longer."
The staff who were running to pull Liber down stopped in their tracks.
The owner of the voice was Sirims Andrian, the head of the magic department.
Liliana turned her head with a surprised expression and looked at the head of the magic department.
The head of the magic department, who made eye contact, opened his mouth.
"Right? Mind magic, Professor Liliana Rachel. It's okay to watch a little longer, right? That assistant is okay, right?"
"Yes? Ah, yes. It's almost..."
"I heard you guided him all night for a week."
Liliana flinched.
How did he know?
"Ah, yes..."
"I'll trust you. The achievements of the two of you. However, if there are any more signs, I have no choice but to stop it immediately."
"Yes! Head of the Magic Department."
In the meantime.
Dennis Fion's wailing subsided.
His face returned to a peaceful expression.
Swoosh.
Dennis Fion raised his palm.
A wooden plank lying on the floor of the gymnasium began to shake.
Float.
It floated up as it was.
A huge roar echoed throughout the gymnasium.
"Wow!"
"What is that! What is that!"
"Did he use mind magic to use telekinesis?"
"Did Liber Specula control that assistant's magic power?"
"Is that possible?"
"Didn't he just take over his mind?"
"That's illegal!"
"Then what is it? Are you saying that Liber is really directly controlling that assistant's magic power to use telekinesis?"
Students and professors alike got up and shouted noisily.
Of course, most of them were people related to magic.
Bellum tapped Latia's shoulder.
"Latia, why is everyone like this right now? Did Dobbery do something great?"
"..."
"Latia?"
"He's crazy... that's completely crazy."
"Huh? Are you saying Dobbery has gone crazy?"
"No, he's showing mind magic that doesn't make sense right now. That's... that's really impossible."
This time, Nuves asked.
Since Bellum and Nuves were both in the swordsmanship department, they didn't know much about mind magic.
"Latia. Back then, during the wide-area mind magic incident, the Lich also made people use magic, right?"
"It's different. It's different from that. That's dominating the mind, and it's illegal. But this is not. This is completely different. He's not eroding the assistant's mind to make him follow orders, but Liber is directly controlling that assistant's magic power!"
Bonita, who was listening to her friends' conversation, poked Davian's side.
"Dibaan, is it that great? That thing. Can't you and Latia do it either?"
"Yeah. I can't do it. Not just me and Latia, but no one here can do it. Oh, I don't know about the new mind magic professor over there."
"Is it that good? That Dobbery?"
"Yeah. It has become that good."
In the meantime.
Liber, borrowing Dennis Fion's body, performed various telekinetic magic.
While throwing a heavy iron ball far away.
He also easily lifted a lead lump with mana resistance.
Eventually.
Kwaang! Kwang!
He shot mana acceleration and completely crushed the iron target installed on one side.
The gymnasium, which had been filled with constant cheers and admiration.
Became quiet as if water had been poured on it at the same time as the iron target was crushed.
As Latia explained, Liber did not dominate Dennis's mind and turn him into a puppet.
Rather, that's easier.
Right now, Liber is connecting Dennis and his own brainwaves with mana waves and then directly moving his magic power.
Liber can't use telekinesis at all, but that's because Liber doesn't have a knack for mana manipulation.
Liber has received perfect scores on every written test so far.
The operating method of telekinesis is perfectly inside Liber's head.
Only the body did not follow.
But borrowing the body of Dennis Fion, who has been immersed in telekinesis for over 10 years, such natural and perfect telekinetic magic implementation became possible.
Clap clap clap.
In the gymnasium, which had become quiet due to the shocking scene, the sound of clapping hands echoed.
It was Liliana Rachel.
"Good job! Good job, Liber!"
With Liliana's applause as a signal flare, the gymnasium was once again filled with thunderous cheers and applause.
After Liber and the rest of the magic department students finished their presentations.
It was Davian Naone's turn.
Davian came out and stood in the center of the gymnasium.
The magic professors in the faculty seats buzzed.
"It's finally Davian's turn."
"I've heard he's a great student. What on earth is he going to show that the head of the magic department has gathered us all here?"
"We'll have to wait and see. I wonder how great he'll be. It seems difficult to give as much of an impact as that student who used mind magic in front of him."
"That's right. Well, just seeing that student's mind magic was worth coming to this 2nd grade final exam site."
"That's right."
First, Davian, who was facing east, swept his palm across the air.
As if squeezing the entrance of a hose and spreading water widely.
A thin stream of water spread out widely.
"What? What is he doing?"
"Why is he suddenly spraying water?"
"Ugh! Is the water going to fly to us?"
The water droplets that were spreading widely began to take shape, and then.
It stopped in the form of a non-flowing waterfall in front of the east spectator seats.
"What, what is this again?"
"It's a wall of water."
"Is this Davian's free assignment?"
At that moment.
Creak.
The water curtain spread out in front of the spectator seats froze as it was.
