Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 419 For Every Action There Is An Equal Reaction [Part 1]

?“Today, we will be talking about one of the simplest spells that might save your life, during a magical duel, given that the right conditions are met,” Professor Nicola, who taught Spell Casting classes, said. “This spell is called Silentium.”

The Professor was a pretty woman in her late thirties.

She had short, silver hair that only reached down to her shoulders, and golden eyes that glowed in the dark like a cat, making her one of the Professors in the academy that stood out due to her unique looks.

Today, the Grand Archmage of the Kingdom was observing her class, so Professor Nicola decided to teach the students one of the advanced spells that not even Third and Fourth Years could cast properly.

“Most Wizards and Witches use chants to cast their spells,” Professor Nicola explained. “But, there are those who can cast spells chantless. These people are either extremely talented, and hardworking, or born with the ability to understand the True Nature of Magic.

“But, let’s not talk about these people. Let’s talk about how you will be able to deal with ordinary Wizards and Witches in a battle of magic.”

Professor Nicola then raised her wand and pointed it at Ethan.

“Silentium!”

A silver beam of light emerged from the tip of her wand and flew straight towards Ethan, hitting his chest.

Everything happened so fast, that even Ethan, who usually had his guard up, was unable to defend himself from such a sneak attack.

What the majority of people didn’t know was that Professor Barret had repeatedly asked Professor Nicola, before he retired, to become a Magistratus.

However, she rejected this offer because she preferred to teach over hunting down rogue Wizards and Witches, who used their power to do evil things.

Although Professor Lionel was the Martial Arts instructor of the academy, even he wouldn’t win in a duel against Professor Nicola.

In fact, the three most powerful Wizards and Witches in the Academy were Professor Rinehart, Professor Barret, and Professor Nicola.

Professor Nicola was also one of the Professors that belonged to Schwartz Manor, specializing in Dark Magic.

Ethan, who had just been silenced, tried to talk but no words came out of his mouth.

This made Professor Nicola smile because during her classes, she mostly used Ethan as her target practice and guinea pig, showing her other students the effectiveness of certain spells.

“The duration of the silencing spell depends on your Mastery over it,” Professor Nicola explained before lightly tapping Ethan’s head with her wand, allowing him to talk again. “So even if you succeed in casting it, there is a chance that it will only silence your enemy for a second.

“However, in magical duels, especially duels where your life is on the line, a second is enough to decide who will leave, and who will die.”

Professor Nicola then walked back to the center of the class, facing everyone.

“Some extremely powerful spells require some time to cast,” Professor Nicola stated. “If you are able to stop the caster from finishing it, they might suffer a backlash that would not only disorient them for a time, but it could also have lasting effects on their bodies.

“There is also a possibility that the backlash would be so strong that it causes them to suffer serious internal and external injuries, and could even put them into a coma. So, all Magistratus and those who specialize in fighting Wizards and Witches do their best to master this spell because it makes things easier for them.”

Professor Nicola gave the Grand Archmage a sidelong glance. For some reason, Ethan could feel that Professor Nicola wished to fight against the Grand Archmage, who served as the adviser of the King of Eatshire.

What the teenage boy didn’t know was that during his duel with Edmond, Professor Nicola felt that powerful fluctuation of magic and came to see what was happening. contemporary romance

There, she saw how Ethan used a flaming spear to repeatedly attack the Grand Archmage, who was forced to endure such a powerful attack.

Of course, Professor Nicola knew that Edmond was holding back. If he really wished for it, he had plenty of ways to deal with Ethan’s attacks.

Simply put, he was testing the extent of Ethan’s strength, and observing his fighting style.

Unfortunately, Ethan didn’t show his core abilities and only used the flaming spear in his hands repeatedly, irritating the Grand Archmage, who was waiting for him to show him his other tricks.

But, as the battle continued, Edmond felt that the boy was simply using him as target practice for his spear, so he decided to unleash his Partial Resonance to teach him a lesson.

However, before he could even start his counterattack, Ethan teleported outside of the arena, which almost made Professor Nicola laugh out loud.

After seeing that the duel would not continue, she left the scene and returned to her office with a smirk on her pretty face.

Since she was a Professor, there had been very few occasions when she had the opportunity to fight with someone.

The only time she left the academy was whenever the Mission Hall was opened. She was one of the Professors, who actively hunted the Rogue Wizards and Witches that were targeting the students of Brynhildr Academy and silenced them forever.

“Some types of magic are born from imagination,” Professor Nicola. “And Silentium was one of them. When casting this spell, you must imagine your target not being able to talk, or utter a single sound.

“The advanced form of this spell is Magna Silentium, which silences more than one person at once. Of course, this spell is too advanced for all of you, so just focus on casting the Silentium spell for now.

“Since Lord Edmond is here, we can let him give you pointers and suggestions on how to cast this spell properly. But, before that, let’s have an event. Everyone cast Silentium. Your target will be Lord Edmond himself. Anyone who succeeds will be given 10,000 Merit Points.

“It doesn’t matter if you silence him for one second, or even a fraction of a second. As long as you succeed, I will award you the Merit Points. Lord Edmond, I hope that you will participate in this experiment.”

The Grand Archmage smiled and nodded before teleporting beside Professor Nicola in the blink of an eye.
