Chapter 195: A Teacher’s Reputation (Part 1)
During my first class, I decided to go back to the basics of magic since I knew that people didn’t have the best methods for casting it.
After I passed attendance, I realized that the girl with blue hair who asked me my name was called "Keiko," whom I had heard about from Melina one time in one of her voice messages while I was in Kalusia.
"Keiko, come to the front," I asked the girl, who shyly walked towards me.
I placed a piece of paper on a small column and dragged my desk to the back to give her more room, asking her to cast a spell that could move the piece.
"Wind, come to me and blow away..." she muttered, generating a decent gust of wind from her hand that made the piece of paper easily fly away.
"Not bad," I praised the girl.
Her incantation wasn’t extremely long, which was more desirable than those very long prayers. Nonetheless, it was still too slow compared to casting without speaking.
Slowly but surely, I explained to the students how magic worked with imagination and that speaking their incantations was good when they were first learning, but it wasn’t as useful when they needed something more powerful.
The lecture lasted two hours, and at one point, I noticed that even Topen was silently taking notes on his desk.
The sound of a massive bell signaled the end of the lecture, and as the students walked out of the classroom, they thanked me for the lesson, which I wasn’t expecting at all.
The green-haired girl who was angry in the beginning approached me with a dejected expression, apologizing for her words and expressing she didn’t know that the lecture would be so informative.
