Magical daily life after reincarnation

Chapter 146: Those who learn from me live, those who resemble me die
"Good morning, I will be your tutor for the study of ancient witchcraft in the first half of the year. You can call me Cypian." After finishing the manuscript, Hercule looked up and said.

The yellowed, and in some places even thin to translucent manuscripts, many people were afraid that they would be broken when they were flipped by the old man.

When he started to introduce his title, some students frowned subconsciously, especially many students from the Academy of the Wise.

People like to call the emperor Augustus, because this word has meanings such as sacred, solemn, noble, and supreme.

But it also has "S" as the suffix, and it is not directly called Augustus. This title is only eligible for the existence that led mankind to establish the first city-state in the Golden Age.

And Cypian contains the meanings of fire, wisdom, source, speculation, sage, etc.

Mia's surname is Cypian, which means "respect and longing for Cypian". Many families who have born wise men and sages, or people who think they have inherited the blood of sages, will change their surnames to Cypian. Piance.

But the tutor who met him for the first time came up and said, you can call me Cypian, which is tantamount to letting many students of the Academy of the Wise call him ancestor.

Does he think he can compete with a great wizard like Imanoe?The eyes of the students from the Wise Man Academy were clearly scrutinized and unkind.

In the classroom, only Tulo noticed an extremely strange thing. He opened the textbook on the study of ancient witchcraft, and then looked at the head portrait drawn with a sketch.

The appearance of this person's head was almost exactly the same as that of the old man on the podium, but no one noticed it.

He remembered that when he first saw Hercules in the corridor of the dream, he seemed unable to recognize him. Later, Hercules did not know what to do to break the invisible barrier that hindered cognition.

"The origin of witchcraft has been publicly discussed, and that is the product of people imitating the original people in the Silver Age, but I would like to make a supplement to this point."

"Witchcraft is not just imitation. Its essence is actually the exploration of the fundamental connection between everything. Rather than imitating the original person, I prefer that creatures try to get closer to the Creator by learning from nature."

Hearing these old and hoarse words, Mansha couldn't sit still anymore, she raised her hand, and looked at Hercules with rather dissatisfied eyes.

"Please speak." Hercule looked at Mansha with a smile, and stretched out his hand to indicate that she could speak.

"The three times great sage has recorded in the "Pyroxene Records" that witchcraft is ritual, and ritual is witchcraft, all of which come from the poor imitation of the original people by the ancestors." Mansha stood up and retorted.

Those who choose to study ancient witchcraft hope to increase their skill in the use of elements when casting spells through in-depth knowledge of witchcraft.

Although there are still many controversies about the development of witchcraft in the academic circles, the source and essence have long been concluded, and what the instructor said on the stage is too ridiculous, even overturning the basic principles set by the three times great sages up.

"Very good, being able to raise doubts is an excellent quality." Hercules nodded approvingly, and then changed the topic: "But please learn to use your own verified knowledge to refute."

"The "Pyroxene Record" was written in Hercules' early years. At that time, he was too superficial to see the true meaning of witchcraft, so this quotation is not appropriate."

"As for the ritual, I think today's magic is more suitable for this kind of rhetoric. It was established entirely within the framework set up by the wizards of the Silver Age, and even the casting of spells has to use their names."

"Magicians continue to build tall buildings on the old foundation, but they never thought that the foundation is so small, and the land beyond the foundation is so vast, that even this foundation cannot belong to themselves."

"After all, it is a devil-like trick, a clumsy, incomplete homeopathic ritual."

As soon as Mansha sat down, she heard the old man shaking his head and sighing.

This time, not only Mansha, but everyone in the class felt extremely absurd. The transition from witchcraft to magic, like the great progress from stone tools to bronze tools, was described so unbearably.

Everyone gradually regarded the mentor on stage as an old antique who yearned for witchcraft, didn't know how to adapt, and was eliminated by the times.

Moreover, he dared to comment on Hercules' superficiality. It is impossible for Papra to say such a thing. Many people regretted taking this course, and felt that it was a waste of time to continue taking this course.

Tulo noticed the faint commotion in the class. If he hadn't known Hercules' identity a long time ago, he would probably have the same thoughts as them.

But if you think about it carefully, when he casts the usual spells, he must strictly follow the order of the five elements, but like [Eye of Naya], or the [Sanctuary Composition] left by Professor Carson, he can do whatever he wants a lot of.

Whether it is the method of casting or the developability, it is much higher than that obtained by using magic spells.

No wonder Professor Carson said before his death that the Bronze Age was like a pool of stagnant water, and the entire present world was gradually drawn into silence...

At the same time, he gradually became aware of the purpose of Hercules' teaching. The other party seemed to be trying to break certain thinking constraints and let the students have a new direction. Is this the preparation for the Midsummer Festival?

"We can do an experiment, and ask this student to try to attack me with basic magic, without fear of accidental injury or loss of control." Naturally, Hercules also saw the dissatisfaction of many people, and after smiling nonchalantly, he proposed to Mansha. road.

Mansha didn't refuse when she heard the words. After all, if she could be a mentor, the strength of the other party must be extremely strong. She also wanted to see what the old man had to say.

"By the name of Hercules, I want the enemy in front of me to turn into flying ashes and raging flames!" Mansha chose the low-level spell she practiced at the beginning, so that she knew how to control the accuracy and could effectively avoid mistakes .

At the same time, in order to increase the effectiveness of the spell, she did not choose to cast the spell silently, but chanted the spell completely.

The dazzling fire snake soared into the air from Mansha's fingertips, and after turning a corner, it rushed straight to the old man on the stage, but when the flame approached him, the old man still smiled and did not move until the flame burned on his body.

Just when Mansha wanted to stop in a hurry, she found that the spell was completely out of her control, and she was even drawing her magic power to maintain it.

"This is the disadvantage of magic. As long as you step into the gold and practice deeply enough, you will find that whoever is closer to the creator of the spell has absolute control over the spell."

Hercules spread out his palms, all the flames poured into his palms, and disappeared with his fists clenched.And then completely cut off the link with Mansha.

"That's not the case at all with witchcraft. Every witchcraft belongs to the caster completely. It's impossible for this to happen."

"In the Silver Age, there is no concept of magic spells. People only have appeals, and even the process of casting witchcraft is different."

"But if you practice magic to the depths, and you meet someone who is more profound than you and closer to the creator, you will become no different from an ordinary person, or even worse."

"Instead of this, it's better to find your own path, connect with the real god, develop your own magic, or completely abandon dogma and try new spells to form a system, all are good paths." Hehe Cully taught.

So far, Talo has truly understood Hercules' intentions. Once he becomes an evil god, he will undoubtedly directly suppress everyone in terms of personality. They may not have a higher level of understanding of magic spells than himself. If that is the case, how can they defeat themselves? .

If it continues like this, then it seems that these students in the class will also become part of the ritual of eliminating evil gods, or they have already been determined to be the accomplices of the savior.

"Does that classmate think about it?" Hercule looked at Talo who was thinking.

"Those who learn from me will survive, those who break me will advance, and those who resemble me will die." Tullow was a little surprised by the sudden question, but he still threw out a more appropriate sentence.

The experience of the predecessors must be learned, but blindly following in the footsteps of the predecessors is doomed to decline.

Moreover, the era in which the wizards lived was much better than the current one. At that time, Hercules had not lowered the "curtain" for the Three Realms, and the use of the power of other realms was far more convenient than it is now.

It is even more difficult to catch up with wizards who grew up in such a superior environment and surpass them. Instead, absorbing their experience and opening up a new path is more hopeful.

"Yes, this is a perfect summary, it may be added to the textbook of general studies." Hercules praised with satisfaction.

Mansha saw that Talo didn't seem to have made any big reactions from the beginning to the end. Instead, she kept following the instructor's train of thought, and was able to make such a conclusion. Once again, she felt the relationship between Talo and everyone in the class. difference.

"Will those who look like me die..."

She slowly chewed this sentence in her heart, and she no longer had any resistance to this kind of discussion at the beginning of class.

Hercules flipped through the manuscript, and talked about the exploration of the essence of witchcraft, which completely deviated from the description in the textbook. After the demonstration by Hercules just now, the students also listened carefully.

After all, the opponent didn't really use any magic spells. Everyone only felt the fluctuation of Mansha's magic power, and the instructor didn't use any kind of power, so he easily controlled the flames.

Until Hercules announced the dismissal of get out of class, Talo said to Grace beside him: "Don't wait for me, you can go back first."

Wendini didn't take the study of ancient witchcraft as an elective, and Grace also happened to bump into Talo.

"Okay." Grace nodded when she heard the words, and she thought to herself that Tulo was going to discuss some advanced things with the tutor again that would not be discussed in class.

After all the students walked out of the classroom, Tarlow came to Hercules' side.

"This feeling is really nostalgic. Children today are much more interesting than those of the previous era. Before I was speaking, no one dared to speak out, let alone question it." The manuscript was put in his arms, and he sighed to Tulo.

"In any case, people today call you the mentor of the mentor." Tulo said politely.

That's because these students don't know your true identity. If they knew that you are a three times greater sage, they probably would not dare to show their grandeur in the lectures. They regard your words as the truth, and he would slander him in his heart.

"Has the prototype of the ceremony been finalized?" Tarlow then asked. After all, Hercules came here to be the tutor of the elective course, so it should be associated with the midsummer ceremony.

"As you think, smart child." Hercules nodded and said: "But the specific preparations will take a lot of time, and it is necessary to observe how far the savior can grow. Consider."

"The growth of the savior?" Talo stroked his chin and thought about the meaning of the words, and then asked the most concerned question: "Is it the principal's intention that you come to be a mentor? Or is it his compromise?"

"It's a compromise, after all, I don't have to teach these things." Hercule said, stroking his beard.

"When Talo Towers passed away, would you like to be a mentor together? You have this ability and talent in this area. I am looking forward to the future under your guidance." Hercule then followed up with the proposal.

"Everything is still unknown, maybe the principal can find a way that only requires the death of the evil god, but if you are a teacher, you can think about it." Tullow replied.

It's just that Hercules' words made him feel a little disappointed for some reason, as if his identity meant death.

After the two chatted for a few more words, Tarlow said goodbye and left.

The courses in the next few days were normal, and there were no surprises.

It is worth mentioning that Zhuoril's summoning class finally started to talk about the serious summoning ceremony. Many people in the class have summoned the elves of their favorite elements. If they master it more proficiently, they can definitely Applied to magic duels.

Summoned items are not only loyal and reliable support, but also can bring a specific attribute improvement to the summoner.

It's just that compared to the fast and convenient magic spell, the casting of summoning is still a bit too slow. Unless there is a blood talent in this area, it is difficult to really play a role in deciding the outcome.

Talo listened to the lecture the whole time, and didn't follow everyone in the summoning, because when he just wanted to connect with the spirit world, he felt the ominousness after he set foot last time, and he wanted to wait until the summoning link related to dream creatures. try it.

On the Friday after the exercise class, occultism and esoteric psychology, Hercules was still the instructor.

He not only briefly explained the scope of concepts involved in occultism, but also further extended to teach everyone how to develop independent magic spells according to their own characteristics. Word spread among students who did not take the two courses.

Saturday off.

After Tulo finished washing, he put on his school uniform and was ready to go out. He planned to vote all the four major tragedies that had finally been translated to the opera club.

And let's take a look at how the store is operating, and bring the old math professors to write a universal inscription.

Speaking of which, what I brought to this world seems to be tragedy, and I don't know if future generations will give me the title of a master of tragedy.
