chapter 30
Runes are the language of the gods, which are said to have driven the abyss out of this land, and each letter has a mysterious power.
According to the principle of formation of runes, the six books (六書; hieroglyph, branch, meeting, formation, prelude, and gacha), there are corresponding runes in most of the universe.
In order to rise to the ranks of the wise, in addition to having to master all the principles, you also need to know how to combine new runes.
The difference between 5 stars and 6 stars is called the difference between heaven and earth because it does not end simply in creating a rune, but also needs to find a mathematical formula that can define the rune.
‘Well then… … .’
After arranging various runes on the parchment of her desk, Lane twirled her pen.
‘Verse Lord Yuryang does not teach new knowledge. It only fills the gaps in the original knowledge.’
It’s going to be a little difficult to get there, but it’s rather welcome. It’s not right for someone to just feed you without making any effort.
‘Then let’s put it together as soon as possible. No, it won’t be random, but try to make things with the right meaning… … .’
Write it down in your notebook.
What is lacking will be corrected later by Sejon Yoo. I nodded my head in satisfaction, then got up and warmed up.
“Let’s go get some strength before curfew.”
Exercise is also important as it becomes the driving force for mana growth. It is not possible to buy a lord every time just to use the Lord Yoo once.

Magicians usually neglect physical fitness, so the physical training room provided to students in Deliten was empty.
The users were almost certain, but they were members of the Slade family, who represent Wing-type wizards, or students of the Tchaihak school.
However, the students of the Eight Great Schools, who knew the importance of physical strength, used to visit at least three times a week, and at most four times a week to improve their physical strength.
“A million and twenty one… … .”
Of course, the one with the highest rank there was Logan, the late exponent of the Tchaihak School. That rugged body is regularly lifting weights weighing up to 150 kilograms.
Illin, a muscular male student who was keeping pace by his side, opened his mouth.
“Hey, Logan.”
“A million and twenty-two… … hmm?”
“Why are you hanging out with the genius Confucius these days?”
Logan, who was lifting weights with his balloon-like biceps and pectoralis major muscle, stopped for a moment.
“Why is that all of a sudden?”
Ilyin glanced at the students of the other school and lowered his voice.
“Oh man, the other schools are making fun of us.”
“?!”
“Logan, you said that you were bullied by the genius Confucius, and now you’re just doing sh*t. The Tchaihak school is over or something. Isn’t it like that?”
“Of course not, man!”
“Isn’t that right?”
Then, suddenly, a bewitching voice interrupted the conversation.
Her sweaty body curved with feminine charm, and her playful face was covered with sweaty curls that were brown.
She approached and crouched by Logan’s bedside, resting her chin on her hands and smiling.
“I also thought that our Logan had made a contract to clean Ludwig’s floor ♪”
a singing voice. She was full of charm that would attract most men, but Ilyin glared at her with a wary face.
“Nora… … !”
There is not a single person of her age who does not know her name. Because he was one of the Eight Great Schools, the late exponent of the Melev School.
The Melev school had arcane magic that specialized in killing, so many wizards were reluctant to do so.
“Isn’t it? It looks as if Logan has succumbed to power and become a pitiful subordinate.”
But Logan calmly lifted the weight and snorted.
“Idiot, am I f*cking with Lane Ludwig? Since your thoughts are so simple, you meleb are subordinate to our chaihaq.”
“oh.”
“This is the Order of the School. He told me to get along with Lane Ludwig, dig up information and take the opportunity to stab him in the back.”
Then, Ilyin burst into tears and clapped, as if he were genuinely moved.
“Oh, oh oh! Also Logan! I believed it, damn it, damn it!”
Tchaihak’s mages are really simple. Logan shrugged.
“I am just following that order. What do you fools know?”
According to Logan’s explanation, it was.
Lane Ludwig was hiding her powers. He doesn’t care about the nickname of genius Confucius. It’s clear that the Ludwig family is hiding something.
He said his goal was to find out why he hid it and how much his true power was.
“It’s strange~♪ Our Logan wasn’t the type to use his brain like this.”
Nora stared into the air as if wondering, tapped her cheek with her finger, and then nodded in agreement.
“I do care too. Even with the power to blow up Logan, why didn’t he ever take a rank test?”
In fact, it was now a mystery to the entire school. And now, with the exception of the Eight Great Schools, few students dared to call Lane a genius Confucius. It is called Inseong Confucius.
“If that’s the case, then Logan won’t really care if I step on the genius Confucius in the midterm exam, right?”
When Nora smiled with a bloody smile, the gym door opened and a black-haired handsome boy stretched and entered.
The boy looked around the fitness room with red eyes, then looked this way and raised his hand happily.
“Logan, I’m here.”
Then Logan latched on the weights, sprang to his feet, and strode toward Lane. His face was full of smiles.
“Are you a little late today?”
“Sorry, I had something to do. You don’t have to look at me if you have something else to do.”
“hahahaha, are you scared? Today is the last day of the week, so it’s going to be a little tight.”
“Pants you want. Let’s go.”
Nora, who looked at Logan’s smiling face as if it was absurd while guiding the lane, burst into laughter the next moment.
“If that’s really acting, Logan should be a clown, not a wizard?”

The weekly meeting of <Delaiten> was originally nothing more than a report on the conventional academic schedule and special matters by the first and second year homeroom professors on the first Monday of the week.
But this time something was different.
It can be seen from the fact that the middle-ranking professors in charge of the 3rd year graduating class lined up on both sides of President Madelia Page’s senior seat. From Senior Professor Marhena to Second Professor Kyle.
“Then it must mean that the senior class schedule has been temporarily closed.”
At Madelia’s question, Professor Kyle’s gun-like eyes lit up.
“yes. We’ve sent out field assignments so we can focus on freshmen for a week. Just like it always has.”
Then, other 2nd and 3rd year professors opened their mouths and had a conversation.
“I heard that this freshman year is great?”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
“I don’t have high expectations, but it looks fun. Just look at the genius Confucius who was said to have hidden his talent.”
Prof. Ivern, who had made such a momentary slip of the tongue, shut his mouth shut when he sensed the terrifying magic power.
It was because Elin, with her arms crossed, was staring at him with an arrogantly arrogant stare.
Elin Ludwig, she was also a professor who guided the second year students of <Delayten> based on her outstanding magical talent.
“Come on, you didn’t mean it so badly.”
Elin Ludwig snorted as Professor Caroline intervened with a smile.
“What, is it just leisure time? You’re prepared too, you bastard. Teacher of the genius girl wizard of the century? Because that title will be smashed this time.”
“hehehe, I’m looking forward to it.”
Is it the first midterm of the golden generation? … . Madelia, who was tapping the desk with her fingers, frowned for a moment and stared into the distant sky.
‘If it was like before, Cassena, that child would be by now… … .’
As the student representative of <Delayten> (the successor of the Page family traditionally serves as the representative, since he will later become the president), it may have been in the golden generation of the first year… … .
Madelia, who was fumbling around in her head with an impossible delusion, nodded with a deep sigh.
“Then notify the students and summon them right away. I will start midterm exams from today.”

The Monday sun has risen. It seemed that this spring was going to end quickly, as the spring sunshine added to the heat and humidity.
“Huh… … .”
I lead my aching body with muscle pain and head to the classroom.
With Logan’s help, his physical growth was rapid. You can tell without checking the numbers with Ludi Yen. It was because his bulky body was getting stronger and gaining muscle.
After trudging along like that, I finally opened the classroom door, and strangely, there was a tense uproar.
“Really?”
“Really! Get ready right now and go to the auditorium for a long time!”
“That’s ridiculous, crazy.”
It was the contents that I couldn’t understand the English language. The classmates even packed their bags and left the classroom one by one.
When I came to my seat after passing by those guys with a puzzled look, Christa was also tidying up her clothes and packing light things.
“Hey, what is it?”
“They said to gather in the auditorium for the midterm exam briefing session.”
“Midterm exam? Isn’t that next week?”
When I asked while tilting my head, Christa smiled arrogantly.
“<Delayten> originally had an arbitrary test schedule. The president and professors change the schedule as they please.”
“why?”
“Why? It must have been to keep them from doing anything stupid like cramming.”
Instead of Christa, Gertrude Panton, who had been packing all her writing utensils, intervened with a resigned laugh.
“Two years ago, they announced the midterm exam schedule and started it the very next day. whoop whoop… … .”
the very next day?
Then, Lane’s eyes lit up as if she was having fun.
“Hey, the professors here are all naughty guys. Do you like it.”
“You like it? Such a perverted act?”
“I heard that exams are to find out your achievements so far? If you get the same grades every time you watch it, isn’t that your real skill?”
I nodded my head in satisfaction as if Christa was indeed my rival.
“Ha ha ha! It is!”
Gertrude also laughed in unison, but deep down, she frowned 100 times.
That’s right. You’re right, but what’s so mean? Are you that confident? This is why the children of the Sedo family have no cuteness except for our young lady.
Meanwhile, Christa, who had finished adjusting her clothes while looking in the mirror, gracefully fluttered the hem of her school uniform cloak and turned around.
“What are you doing? let’s hurry. You don’t know what kind of disaster you’ll get if you’re a little late.”
In the midst of everyone’s nervousness, Christa’s words and actions were overflowing with confidence. Should I say it is confidence in my skills and confidence that comes from experience?
<Delaiten> From elementary school to middle school, she never missed the top class.
That record was about to be broken now.
