The Reincarnated Person Became a Professor at the Academy

Chapter 128

Chapter 128 – Who Do You Think I Am? (4)

Wind God Spear.

And the Wind God.

What they gave me were quite grand inspirations.

Dominating Soul of the North Wind.

Apart from that, several Heaven-Surrendering Godly Techniques were influenced.

‘Of course, I didn’t fully receive them.’

Should I say something additional was added?

Wind God.

The God of Wind.

It possessed the fundamental attribute of wind.

Void.

To empty oneself.

I think I understood its true meaning.

Crunch, crunch.

‘So, that’s why it’s called the Wind God.’

I concealed my own attributes.

No, it was more accurate to say that they were veiled.

He, or perhaps she, must have awakened their attributes through the wind.

Crunch, crunch.

And then I thought.

God of Magic, Han Seojin.

He told me not to obsess over the three major attributes of space, time, and creation.

Though the power he used did involve all three.

‘Does that mean the other attributes are just as formidable?’

Thinking that way, it made sense.

It must have been because Han Seojin, the God of Magic, wanted me not to limit my possibilities.

My mind became a bit clearer.

Yes, let’s go back to the basics.

I was a genius.

Even though I was always a latecomer, I could effortlessly catch up with the frontrunners.

However, at some point, my thoughts seemed to have solidified.

‘Is it time to find my original mindset?’

Back to basics.

When I first encountered magic, how was it?

Its strength? Because it was cool?

Of course, I don’t think those things were absent.

But it was simply fun for me.

‘Ice of Destruction, Flame of Harmony.’

And the Lightning of Ruin.

The next step was the stars that condensed all those elements.

The Great Sky Dancing Divine Mantra transforms the body into the Heavenly Martial Body and creates the purest mana.

The Heaven-Surrendering Godly Technique simply destroys.

Breaking all the rules that I disliked, leaving behind ruins to create anew.

That was the Heaven-Surrendering Godly Technique.

‘It lacked something unique, though.’

Suddenly, I felt as if I were captivated by something.

Wooong!

The divine within my dantian slowly opened its eyes.

There was a change in the mana within my body.

‘Is this enlightenment…?’

The mana composing my body became more majestic.

And yet, it was pure.

If we were to compare the purity of my original mana, it was on par with the inner strength of the Heaven-Surrendering Martial Emperor at his peak.

But now.

Here, I could be certain.

Regardless of anything else, the purity of my mana surpassed that of the Heaven-Surrendering Martial Emperor.

Well, more importantly than that.

‘Shall I teach real magic?’

Magic.

What was it?

In the beginning, when humans had nothing, they observed nature.

The storm raged, a tornado rose, and lightning from the red clouds erased the mountain.

My second life in the fantasy world was like that.

People worshipped those forces as gods.

But there were always rebels.

Some people saw that and yearned to use it themselves.

That was the beginning of magic.

“Magic isn’t that difficult.”

You built your own tower.

And that tower was a circle.

The stronger and larger the circle, the more it could contain.

The bigger and sturdier the circle, the more it could alter natural phenomena.

You projected the logic you held in your mind into the world.

That was magic.

“Conversely, if you want to cancel someone’s magic, you just have to disrupt that logic from the start.”

“Like how the professor holds onto mana?”

“That’s right. In the end, regardless of logic or anything else, it’s magic that turns it into reality.”

Han Seojin extended his fingers with a nonchalant expression.

There, frozen ice magic was present with a crackling sound.

Glacial Heavenly Moon.

Ice of Destruction.

The power it possessed was immense.

Shin Yura knew just how destructive that power was.

‘It’s even more valuable than my family’s secret techniques.’

That’s how highly she valued that magic.

“Magic is like that. You have your own attributes, and you maximize them.”

And then you added mana to it.

You enhanced the power of magic through mana control or mana affinity.

Simply put, a mage was like a gun, and magic was like bullets.

The difference was, a mage could shoot a rocket launcher with a gun and also shoot a rifle with a rocket launcher.

‘But you’re using a rocket launcher to shoot a rifle.’

So I taught them magic.

And the one who learned that magic the best was Shin Yura.

‘Now it’s time.’

Shin Yura could now fire rockets with a rocket launcher.

The next step was to make her fire rocket launchers with a rifle.

That was quite easy.

And that’s the main content of this lesson.

Just as Han Seojin was about to properly start the lesson, his eyebrow twitched.

‘Who is it?’

Someone was striding towards the place where he was teaching.

The presence felt like Abel and two unfamiliar people.

But the energy was familiar.

‘Red Tower?’

Red Tower Master.

He could feel the fiery energy that he possessed.

Han Seojin looked at Shin Yura.

‘Why is this kid so unlucky?’

Every time he tried to teach something, someone kept interrupting.

Nam Hyerin was now swinging her sword like a madwoman, as if she was on the verge of realizing something from the sword technique she had just witnessed.

But that didn’t mean he could treat a guest poorly.

‘I’ve been paid too much.’

He clicked his tongue and looked outside.

Abel was coming.

And there were also those clad in red robes.

‘As expected, it’s them.’

The Red Tower.

The mage from the Red Tower.

They had come here.

“Nice to meet you.”

The mages of the Red Tower bowed their heads.

A greeting as elegant as a noble’s. Shin Yura also greeted them in the same manner.

‘She fits the picture well.’

Not as much as the mages of the Red Tower, but her appearance made her look fitting.

“Why are you here?”

“We wish to invite Mage Han Seojin.”

“The Red Tower Master?”

“Yes.”

“Why me?”

“We do not know. It is simply because the Emperor of the Empire ordered it.”

“…I see.”

At the mention of the Emperor, Han Seojin’s expression soured.

Well, it was an issue he had to confront sooner or later.

It wouldn’t be bad to confront it now.

And.

‘I’d like to see it.’

Perhaps it was hearing that familiar name.

He felt a bit nostalgic. His chest was itching.

Originally, he wouldn’t have gone if he were weak.

He didn’t want to show his weak self, and he knew others would target him because of it.

But now, it was different.

‘There are no transcendents, right?’

More precisely, there were the Principal and Neo Seunghwa, but in other words, except for those two, there were none.

And in a place without transcendents.

‘I am the king.’

In his current state, that was true.

If it came down to a one-on-one fight, there weren’t many who could beat him.

Among the Supreme Realm, that was.

Meanwhile, the mage of the Red Tower was observing his opponent internally.

‘Professor Han Seojin.’

His name was well-known.

For better or for worse.

On the positive side, he improved the magic circle, raising the reputation of the magic world.

On the negative side…

‘That’s the legacy of the Purple Tower Master.’

That’s why they were wary.

How did this person come to possess the legacy of the Purple Tower Master?

Many speculated that he might be the reincarnation of the Purple Tower Master.

‘But that can’t be.’

It was the Purple Tower Master, after all.

At the age of 25, he was known for his ruthless behavior, kicking the Red Tower Master in the butt and humiliating him.

And that person had endured until now?

That’s ridiculous.

If something bothered him, he swept it away and broke it.

And if something blocked his path, even if it’s a Tower Master of equal status, he kicked their butt and beat them up.

That kind of person was the Purple Magic Tower Master.

A dirty, arrogant, self-absorbed guy.

Yet, his abilities were so exceptional that nothing could be done about him.

He’s so good at currying favor that he was close to the Emperor, the Yellow Tower Master, and the Duke of Extermination. Moreover, he was also close to the Duke of the Moon of the Blue Tower.

He even modified the Duke of the Moon’s unique spell, Duke of the Moon Ice Heaven, to his liking.

Therefore.

‘But he’s different.’

It’s clear.

This guy was not the Purple Magic Tower Master. He was not that Han Seojin.

He’s just a person with the same name.

His aura didn’t feel as strong.

Of course, achieving this much at his age was impressive.

Professor.

It’s a title befitting the name.

But having seen the Purple Tower Master, they could tell.

Han Seojin was not the Purple Tower Master, Han Seojin.

However, they didn’t know.

This phenomenon was because Han Seojin has realized the void.

“Red Tower, Red Tower.”

Han Seojin called out the name of the tower.

Red Tower.

Since the previous life, they had been meddling in everything he did.

[Han Seojin, what on earth are you doing?!]

[Research.]

[No, but why are you conducting that research in our Red Tower…]

[Come on, you built the tower here, so I had no choice but to do it here. Who would want to do research in this place? You want to die?]

[W-Well, it’s true that this area is good for mana research, but we were trying to create a forge to enhance the fire-element mana in this region…]

[Watch yourself. It may seem similar, but it’s entirely different.]

Taking over a place to conduct experiments and contaminating it with mana…

[Hey, hey, what are you doing?]

[Wow, look at that. When the World Tree burns, such a phenomenon occurs. Are the wood and fire attributes more symbiotic than we thought?]

[Kyaaa! Th-the World Tree is burning!!]

[Th-that’s the magic of the Red Tower, the Flame Burst?! Those bastards from the Red Tower!! I’ll tear them apart alive and eat them!! Everyone, grab your gear!!]

[Is this a human hunt?! I can finally taste fresh men after a long time!!]

[It doesn’t follow the four elemental principles but the five phases. Hmm… this reaction is more interesting than I thought.]

The dark elves who kidnapped imperial citizens, killed all the women, and made all the men sex slaves.

When he burned their World Tree, intending to kill them all, the Red Tower guys got to them first.

There were many other grudges.

Especially against the master of the Red Tower.

Was it because the stubborn brat was the Tower Master?

He let his guard down and got killed by those dark mages, tarnishing the empire’s prestige.

As a result, the position of the Red Tower Master was left vacant for quite some time.

Because of that, all sorts of Tower Masters tried to step in to take a piece of the pie.

In the end, it led to the weakening of the empire.

“I must go. Of course, I must go.”

The Red Tower Master invited him?

Then he must go.

He had to go, no matter what.

Even if there was no time, even if it was during Shin Yura’s magic class.

And.

‘If that guy is still the Red Tower Master.’

He’d have to start by beating him up.
