The story of the son of the mercenary in the north enrolling in the magic school in the south

When he noticed, Almark had been put to bed in the infirmary in the school building.

Wake up your body. There is no pain. Look at your right hand, but it doesn't even look like you're burned.

Outside the window is still bright. The day is still high.

I wonder how much I had lost my mind. Even on the long journey, I never lost my mind all that defenselessness. Because it meant death.

It's a big mistake.

Almark sighed and put his right hand against the window.

What the hell was that? A flame that swelled up like it was willing. The magic that was sucked away rapidly.

When I tried to get out of bed, I felt dizzy. My body is powerless.

"Better not walk yet"

Suddenly he was called out, and Almark looked back in surprise. Illmis was holding onto the wall and watching him better.

I guess I didn't notice any signs of him at all because Almark's debilitation was so intense. Though not traumatized, Almark's body seemed to be damaged more than he could have imagined.

"I almost released the magic in my body. Just lay back a little longer."

You must have been following me the whole time. Irmis slowly approached me, saying so.

"Dr. Illmis... I'm... what the hell"

Almark asked Irmis, still awake.

"You tried to use the magic of lights."

"Yes."

As Almark nodded, Ilmis shook his head.

"It's not the magic of lights or anything like that you used. Those are dragon flames. It's the magic of destruction that burns down hostile opponents."

"Dragon Flame... of Destruction burning down the opponent..."

After repeating that, Almark remembered the screams of his classmates he heard just before he lost his mind, and his spine froze.

"Well, everyone else is"

"... no one is hurt. The magic in your body was so poorly worked out that it didn't burn out in no time."

"Really...... good"

Ilmis peered at Almark's face, which leaked a sigh of relief.

"Why do you think that happened?

"... I don't know. Sure, I only trained in meditation, but I thought I had a magical image of the lights. I've always imagined a small flame. A big flame, let alone a dragon flame? I never thought about the magic of destruction. How could I suddenly"

"Dragon Flame is the magic you learn in the Highlands"

said Irmis.

"It's not another tricky magic. If you just activate it, it's magic enough for a middle school student."

However, Illmis added.

"This magic is a very intense drain of magic. It's life-threatening if a child whose body hasn't grown."

"Oh, so..."

Almark quickly ran out of magic all over his body and lost his mind.

"I haven't been able to meditate properly, and you've tied your magic to something extraordinary."

"That's what I'm talking about"

Illmis nodded.

"I told you before, you're too smart. Instantly try to understand, interpret, and apply what came through your eyes and ears. But as far as magic is concerned, it is not a true understanding"

"... Yes"

Shortly before I passed out, I heard Ill Miss.

"So I told you."

That's what I meant.

The magical image of the light that Almark thought of with his own head. That was just a story that Almark had interpreted on his own, and in reality it appeared as something else altogether.

Ilmiss was right.

Almark was ashamed of his thoughts.

Ilmiss, letting him lie in bed again like that, got up.

"Dr. Celia, the healing technique, brings me medicinal water soon. If you drink that, rest a little longer and then go back to the dorm. Don't even train meditation today and tomorrow. Rest in your room and try to restore your magic."

"... ok"

Almark bit his lip.

"Doctor, I apologize for the inconvenience"

"You have talent. That's for sure. But it takes a lot of training and preparation to control it because it's too big a talent. I told you the other day you didn't have much time left..."

In front of the door, Illmis looked back again and looked at Almark. Say in a gentle tone.

"That doesn't mean that. It is forbidden to make any mistakes. Until then, but without hesitation, be polite. … Continue. It's a power in you, it can't be out of your control."

"... Yes"

Almark nodded. Now, I just had to believe what Irmis said.
