Chapter 462 Wine
"Yes... I often read about it..." Kaya was confused, "Space Magic and Time Magic are the rarest Types of Magic. Mages who can use these two Types of Magic are revered and considered geniuses. The third Type, Chaos Magic, is forbidden because countless mages have died trying to comprehend it."
"Not bad. You\'re absolutely right, but unlike other forbidden magic, Chaos Magic is treated with respect and a touch of fear. If it weren\'t for the great danger in learning it, then Chaos Magic wouldn\'t be forbidden, though any great power comes with risks." Blind Sorcerer shook his head.
"Mister, have you tried to study one of the Types of Unique Magic?" Kaya asked seriously.
Blind Sorcerer stared at her. He fell silent and, after a while, said, "Huh, you think too highly of me. I\'m very lucky to have a talent for Illusion Magic, that\'s enough. Unfortunately, I can\'t use any of the three types of Unique Magic."
"I see... Sorry, that was a stupid question." Kaya lowered her head.
"No, it\'s okay. A good student is not one who knows everything, but one who asks a lot of questions because he wants to know."
...
For the next three days, Blind Sorcerer taught his class. He did his job diligently and, in that short period, had gained a reputation as an unusual but skillful teacher. Most of the students liked him, many were interested in attending his lectures.
\'Blind Sorcerer teacher, huh, like I\'m going to believe that dumb shit. He has his sights set on this academy\'s treasure, but how is he going to get it?\' Wain pondered.
He had been watching Blind Sorcerer\'s actions closely the whole time and saw something suspicious.
At the end of the first day, Blind Sorcerer spent the entire night going over the list of students. He scrutinized each of his students, as well as all the others who attended the academy.
"Found... Eh, Kaya, I don\'t know if it\'s luck or curse, but you\'ll have to put up with some inconvenience." Blind Sorcerer muttered as he looked at Kaya\'s picture.
On the second day, after class, Blind Sorcerer went to one of the elders, Egid Kurt, Lois Kurt\'s father.
Blind Sorcerer went to the door and knocked gently.
"Come in." A strong voice rang out from inside.
Click.
Blind Sorcerer opened the door.
It was a spacious office, and in the center sat a middle-aged man with a short black beard and blue eyes.
"Ah, you\'re that blind teacher." Edig grinned, "Do you have some business for me?"
"Yes, I want to hold an open class with my class in the middle of the woods. I realize it might be dangerous, but I\'m sure I can protect the students in case monsters attack."
"Huh, you want to teach them how to fight and show them what real danger is? I approve of that, I like your approach. You just showed up and got right down to business, but there\'s one problem." Edig put some kind of document aside.
"What\'s the problem?"
"According to the rules, you can\'t have one teacher teaching these lessons. Even the Elders don\'t have that right. You need someone who can help you and your students in case of problems."
"Well... Do you have any ideas?"
"Yes." Edig nodded, "Talk to Miss Reine. She came to me a week ago with the same request. As far as I know, none of the teachers wanted to keep her company. They were all too busy, as always."
"Missy Reine..." Blind Sorcerer muttered, "Okay, I hear you. Thanks for your help."
"Hey, wait." Egid suddenly stopped him.
"What is it?"
"My son is in your class."
"Yes. Don\'t worry. I\'ll be careful to keep Lois safe."
"No, that\'s not what I\'m talking about. Since you\'re going to test their strength in a real fight, take full advantage of it. I want Lois to fight the strongest monster, do not interfere in the battle, help him only in case of mortal danger." Egid said seriously.
"Am I as a teacher allowed to do that?"
"You will do it on my behalf. I, as a father, can do it. If you have any problems because of it, you come to me. Now that\'s it. I have work to do. Good luck." Egid waved his hand.
Blind Sorcerer bowed slightly.
On the third day, he returned to teaching.
"Well, we only have five minutes left. Who wants to show how to create the perfect ice sphere?"
"I\'ll do it!" Lois stood up abruptly.
"Sure. Go ahead." Blind Sorcerer smiled.
Lois approached the board with a serious look and gathered mana in one spot. The temperature next to him dropped, then a sphere appeared in the palm of his hand with energy circulating inside.
"Not bad. I hope if we get attacked during an open class, you can do the same."
"What?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Open class?"
The students were puzzled.
"Yes. I thought it would be a good idea to have an open lesson. I hope you don\'t mind." Blind Sorcerer smiled.
The students looked at Kaya.
"Mr. All-knowing, this is unexpected, but we are only too glad. We\'ve been waiting a long time for an opportunity like this. When will it happen?" Kaya asked uncertainly.
"Unfortunately, I don\'t know yet. I\'ll have to discuss it with Miss Reine. If she\'s okay with it, maybe the open class will be even earlier than the alchemy class. I\'ll be able to tell you for sure tomorrow."
"Okay, we\'ll wait." Kaya nodded.
"Good."
...
The lessons were over, but the Blind Sorcerer did not go straight to Miss Reine. He had a few things to prepare before he did.
"Miss Reine... Beautiful name. I\'m even a little sorry to do this to you." Blind Sorcerer smiled wickedly as he set the bottle of wine on the table.
Next to the bottle of wine was a lush bouquet of rare flowers, as well as two small flasks, one with green liquid, the other with blue.
"If I open the bottle, she\'ll definitely notice it, but that\'s not necessary." Blind Sorcerer removed the blindfold.
One of his eyes lit up, space shuddered, and suddenly the contents of the green flask were in the wine.
