Magic Chronicles : Fallen Race – Chapter 76

Magic Chronicles : Fallen RaceChapter 76: Chapter 76: Idiot (Part 1)

Ilinor Royal Academy.

Girls’ Dormitory.

On the bed of a certain elven princess.

“Cough, cough, cough.”

After a bout of coughing, Reji slowly opened his eyes on the bed. He looked around dazedly, at the slightly simple room. Reji rubbed his temples, pretending to be someone who had just awakened from a coma, trying to sort out his memories and understand the situation.

“Teacher!”

“Thank goodness! Thank goodness! You’re finally awake!” Vielsia, who had been standing guard beside Reji, immediately exclaimed with joy. Her face was full of concern.

“Teacher, how are you feeling? Do you feel anything strange in your body?”

“I?”

Reji pretended to close his eyes and sense his condition. He soon shook his head, looking somewhat confused as he said to the elf, “Miss Vielsia, I’m fine, but I remember, I shouldn’t be…”

Hearing that Reji was physically fine, the elf princess finally let out a sigh of relief.

As for Reji’s confusion about how he was “fine”.

“I, I gave you some healing potion, and then, then you were fine!” Vielsia’s eyes were somewhat evasive as she answered, stuttering.

She chose not to directly tell Reji about her kiss and the Princess Bond. Instead, she found an excuse to hide the truth.

This didn’t mean that Vielsia regretted her actions. The calm elf princess didn’t regret her decision to save Reji.

As for why the current Vielsia didn’t tell Reji, it was because…

“Teacher Reji, I am extremely sorry for involving you in a crisis! I’m sorry! It’s all my fault!”

After confirming that Reji was unharmed, Vielsia immediately stood in front of him and sincerely bowed her head in apology.

And after apologizing, Vielsia clenched her fists nervously and asked Reji tentatively:

“So, Teacher Reji, you… you saw everything, right? Those demons, that powerful shadow demon, and…”

“And… me.”

What Vielsia meant by “me” here was self-evident.

From the moment she instantly killed Professor Yeno, Vielsia had revealed her true elven form. Later, when she confronted the shadow demonor more accurately, when she was being toyed with by that terrifying shadow demonshe was also in her true form.

If Reji wasn’t blind, he must have seen it.

So… She couldn’t hide it any longer.

Vielsia didn’t plan to hide it any further. In fact, she had always felt guilty about deceiving Reji, and she didn’t want to face him under the false identity of a “human female student” anymore.

Lying was wrong.

Now, Vielsia was nervous and anxious because she wanted to know Reji’s attitude toward this “big liar” and deceiver, and toward her as a non-human and an elf, after he discovered the truth and her deception.

If Reji couldn’t accept it, or if he was disappointed in her and unwilling to stand by the elves, Vielsia wouldn’t force him.

She would quietly leave and let her teacher return to his peaceful life, even if it was only temporary peace, as the demons had already arrived and the world’s turmoil could be foreseen.

As for the “Princess Bond,” which she could only use once in her life as the Elf Princess, she would consider it her farewell gift to Reji and a memory between them. She would keep this secret hidden in her heart and not burden Reji with it.

As for the pressure from the elders on the elf side…

She would bear it alone.

This was Vielsia’s worst-case plan.

And what the Elf Princess hoped for, anticipated, and longed for as the best outcome was…

“Of course.”

Reji nodded.

Afterward, Reji’s tone remained unchanged, just like any other day. He even asked Vielsia curiously, “So, was that really a demon? Judging from their abilities, it should be a shadow demon, right?”

Ꮇ∀ԼΕϺҎƳᏒ.ƇⵔƜ

Vielsia didn’t directly answer Reji’s question.

The elf girl was more surprised.

“Teacher Reji, you… you don’t feel anything about my identity, nothing at all…”

“Should I feel something? Excited? Shocked? Or should I bow to you?

I remember that elves are usually quite proud and emphasize etiquette. If you request it, Miss Vielsia, I actually don’t mind~”

Reji teased Vielsia on purpose.

As expected, the elf girl frantically shook her head and anxiously said, “No! No, no, no! You’re my teacher. There’s no way a teacher should bow to their student!”

Vielsia didn’t refute Reji’s description of elves as proud, as this was indeed a stereotype with some truth to it. Many of her elf kin did have this flaw, and Vielsia didn’t deny it.

“Although it’s quite embarrassing for a student’s spell level to surpass their teacher’s, Miss Vielsia…”

Reji changed his tone.

“During the previous battle, you wasted a lot of your mana unnecessarily, and your spell casting was too careless. It’s clear that you lack real combat experience. When faced with a situation beyond your control, you seem to go blank, forgetting everything and recklessly casting spells. This won’t do.”

If Reji had previously become a teacher to get closer to Vielsia, now that the elf girl had given him precious gifts, opened her heart to him, acknowledged him as her teacher, and considered herself his student, Reji sincerely wanted to teach her properly.

His tens of thousands of hours of battle experience from the game made him proficient in various combat methods and strategies. The “Star Sculpt II” effect from the Demon King Fate Track further complemented this.

Now, Reji was more than capable of guiding not only Vielsia but also his eight subordinate apostles with ease.

In fact, Reji did have plans to do so, as he was most familiar with the weaknesses and flaws of these apostles, having once been his “enemy.” With targeted training, Reji was confident he could bring their powers to a new level.

But that was a story for another time.

Over the next hour and a half, Reji carefully reviewed the entire situation with Vielsia, pointing out her various shortcomings in decision-making and combat since she had been ambushed. He explained which spells she should and shouldn’t use in similar situations in the future.

It felt like…

He was giving a beginner’s guide.

Reji was quite familiar with this, as he had been a well-known expert in the game’s strategy section. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been invited by “Magic Chronicles” to participate in their closed beta test.

As for Vielsia, of course, she listened particularly seriously. She had never underestimated Reji. After all, the exquisite combination of low-level spells by Reji before looked simple, but the prerequisite was that the caster needed a vast reservoir of spells.

Like Reji, who released spells from four or even five different element in just one battle, it could almost be called a miracle.

Vielsia admired Reji, but it was not surprising that Reji could achieve this.

After all, the previous Reji had already created a setting for himself that inherited the “Wisdom Orb.”

So in Vielsia’s view, it was quite normal for her teacher to be so powerful and have such a profound understanding of magic, considering the inheritance from the great guardian, who could be considered the ancestor of magic throughout human history a thousand years ago.

Because of this,

“Teacher, I have something very important to tell you and beg for your help.”

“Is it about the demon race?”

“Yes.” Vielsia nodded.

“In our elven race, there was a prophecy from our ancestors that the demon race, a thousand years ago, would return and plunge the world into destruction and strife again. And as you have seen tonight, what we experienced undoubtedly proved the truth of the prophecy; the demon race has reappeared.”

“I don’t know why the demon race hasn’t launched an attack yet, perhaps because they’re not fully ready to descend yet. The shadow demon we encountered is just a projection, but the real demon race is much more powerful than that shadow demon.

With just our elves and the human world, I don’t think we have any chance of winning.”

“So, for the sake of the world, for the elves, and also for humans, Teacher Reji, I urgently need your help. In my hands, I have a sealing technique that our ancestors have researched specifically for this day, which can completely banish the demon race.”

At this point, Vielsia had nothing to hide anymore and disclosed all her secrets to Reji, her trusted Teacher.

Reji still maintained the calm and steady expression that a teacher should have on his face. He nodded calmly and said, “Of course, I will do my utmost.”

“So, could Miss Vielsia please tell me all the specific details of the sealing technique?”

“The more detailed, the better.”

Reji added lightly
