Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent - Overpowered Archmage Doesn’t Hide His Talent chapter 205

205 – Are you really telling me to do this…? ?

After it was confirmed that the representatives of the Faculty of Magic would participate in the Heroes’ War, Cornette looked out the window of the president’s office for a moment, soaked in sentiment.

Suddenly, the image of the old magic school comes to mind.

Underdeveloped facilities, contempt and persecution from knights as if it was natural…. In fact, it is so recent that the word ‘old’ doesn’t even fit.

I have lived my life thinking that such scenes are so natural, but why do I expect that the days ahead will be different?

Knock knock─

At that time, someone knocked on the door of the president’s office.

With the unique, weak knocking sound, Cornette could vaguely guess that Violet had come to visit.

“Please come in.”

The door opens silently and the visitor appears. As expected, it was Violet, a professor at the Faculty of Magic.

“Professor Violet, what’s going on?”

In fact, it was unusual for Violet to visit the president’s office first. Why is she nicknamed witch in the first place? It’s because she always looks tired and seems to be absorbed in her own research.

“Hey, President.”

Violet carefully removed her lips.

“Yes.”

“I received news that the representatives will be participating in this Heroic War. Since I am the professor in charge, I feel like I want to do various things.”

“That’s a very good attitude.”

“Thank you for your words. But….”

Violet trailed off as she spoke.

“I don’t know what to do.”

“I don’t know…” . In what way?”

“I decided to help her with the learning aspect, but she had a hard time knowing how to help me. “I don’t know what kind of material is suitable.”

Cornette nodded her head as if she understood.

“Ah, I think I know what you’re talking about.”

“To simply provide something for the next grade….”

“It’s difficult to deal with a capital knight with just that, and I don’t know what to give if I want to give him something even greater. I think you were thinking this way. “Is that correct?”

“Yes, President. “Exactly.”

Cornette also nodded her head in agreement with Violet.

“It is a completely understandable concern.”

“I’m basically a professor. I would like to provide support in terms of learning….”

Violet trailed off.

Why on earth would there be a learning process called ‘curriculum’ in the academy? This is because when students step on one step, they grow by taking the next step.

However, Flan was a man who could be said to be an exception among exceptions.

I don’t know what you’re learning, and I don’t even know what you’re thinking. The only thing Plan’s people around him could do was admire the occasional surprising result.

“As a professor, I don’t want to remain silent when you are stepping forward so admirably. “Everyone has their own role, so I want to be faithful to my role.”

Cornette shook his head.

I could feel Violet’s affection for the students. I also felt a passion for not simply wanting to stand shoulder to shoulder with the success of the representatives, but to be faithful.

Cornette, who understood that feeling, nodded.

“It’s quite a difficult task.”

What if Plan had been Cornette’s best disciple? It would have been enough to teach Cornette one by one the magic he was most confident in and liked.

However, he is not someone who will remain as someone’s best disciple. He is a person who is more independent than anyone else and has a personality so strong that he cannot be compared to others.

Cornette rubbed his chin.

“The more I think about it, the more I think it is an important issue. What can the academy do for students? “Because this is a really important issue.”

“That’s why I’m worried too.”

“But Violet, I think you visited the president’s office because you had something in mind.”

Cornette and Violet’s eyes met in the air. As the president looked at the professor, he had a look that seemed like he already knew everything.

“Ah….”

In the end, Violet took off her witch-like cone hat. He placed it in front of his stomach, assumed a polite posture, and then spoke again.

“President, how about showing me some old books? “I think we’ll need at least that much to deal with the Capital Knight.”

Then it was none other than the secretary who responded. She opened her mouth for the first time, having just listened to her story quietly.

“Professor Violet, wouldn’t that be a bit dangerous?”

“Danger?”

“The old books really contain all kinds of information. “They are at an age where they can easily be deceived by things, but if they suddenly wake up to something bad, it can be quite difficult.”

Cornette quietly watched the conversation between the two.

I completely understood the secretary’s concerns.

The wizards who enter the academy move toward success one by one, but the lives of all wizards do not work out uniformly.

Those who have experienced unspeakable horrors, those who have become frustrated at the threshold of the academy, those who have come to hate the world….

Most of them turn to organizations in the back world. The secretary is concerned because the old book contains such explicit and dangerous content.

The secretary sighed.

“Professor Violet. I think it’s too dangerous to even show old books. “I’m sure we can help in other areas as well.”

“Secretary, that is a remark that disrespects the representatives.”

But Violet also showed no sign of backing down from her secretary. The secretary wiggled her eyebrows.

“Are you saying I ignore the representatives?”

“Yes. They hesitate over old books because they don’t trust the representatives. “What on earth are you worried about?”

“….”

Violet continues speaking seriously.

“What is there to worry and doubt about now? No, you don’t even have the right to doubt it. “I’m embarrassed to say this to myself, but honestly, we haven’t done anything.”

“Hmm.”

“So, secretary, let’s do something from now on. Let’s just give him some old books. “If anyone sees me, they might think I’m showing off by doing something great.”

The secretary who was listening to the story cleared her throat.

“Well, I didn’t mean to say that you can’t do it unconditionally…. There might be a better way. “That’s what I mean.”

The secretary continued to say something, but soon the ending became more and more blurred. This is because Violet’s attitude was so determined, and not a single word was wrong.

Meanwhile, Violet spoke with confidence.

“Would about five books be enough?”

“Five volumes?”

“I don’t know how much I will learn, but wouldn’t I still get results as much as I study? I think five volumes would be perfect….”

The secretary wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

“Even if it’s an old book, there are five books…. “There is not much time left until the Heroes’ War, and I am worried that the vast amount of information may be causing further confusion.”

“Have you ever seen Flan confused?”

“… No. Doesn’t exist. “That’s right.”

It was then.

“Stop.”

Cornette, who was watching the secretary and Violet, quietly raised one hand. With just one simple movement, silence came into the president’s office.

The president’s lips parted slightly.

“I don’t think it’s something to worry about. “The entire library is open to representatives.”

“Uh… ?”

Both the secretary and Violet tilted their heads at the sight of Cornette making such a big decision so easily.

” After living a long time, I have learned that being able to recognize and trust someone is also a skill. So.”

Her eyes slowly close and open.

“Let’s believe it. “This time too.”

◈

“An old library?”

“Yes. “An old library.”

With the Heroes’ Exhibition just around the corner, Violet suddenly came to me and recommended I visit the old library.

‘There is a big difference between an old library and a library.’

It is convenient to think that the books in the library are standardized. This is because the goal is to make the reader accept the information contained without resistance.

In contrast, old books are full of the author’s subjectivity.

They filled out their opinions about magic without paying attention to the readers. It will be a good opportunity for representatives to encounter various interpretations.

Violet held out something small to me.

“It is a sign that allows entry into the ancient library. I hope this helps…. Oh, just one more thing.”

She adds carefully.

“If there is any good content in the old library, can you tell me about it? “If there is content that is good for other students to learn, I want to use it.”

“If you can afford it.”

“Thank you.”

We finished our brief greeting. After Violet left, I walked straight to the old library.

“Well, is it this much?”

When I arrived, a scenery just as expected greeted me. It was extremely spacious and clean, but the smell of paper, unique to old books, wafted from my nose.

I walked around the maze-like old library for a while. I looked at all the things in the study, and there was as much variety as I expected.

Some were interesting, some felt pioneering, while others felt outdated. It was truly diverse….

“Hmm.”

Soon, he closed the book with an expression of displeasure.

It was none other than the editing done by blood demons. As expected, their brainwashing had affected this place as well.

So, what should we do from now on?

The answer was already decided.

◈

Assistant No. 187. The Void Princess’ secretary.

She visited the Academy’s old library looking for me. She said indifferently as she looked around.

“No matter how much I manage it with magic. The smell of old paper is unavoidable. “Flan, I really like this smell.”

“I see.”

“Yes, there is a study in the void, right? “They even intentionally intended for this scent to come out there too.”

She takes out a book with sentimental eyes.

“Is this how a pregnant mother feels after giving birth to a child? I feel happy every time I look at each book. “No matter what I see, I remember everything, including when it was distributed.”

“As expected, your touch was also evident in these old books.”

“Yes. “Flan, do you still not know where I am?”

The aide, who was shrugging her shoulders, looked at me blankly.

“Flan, why did you call me? “Has research on ancient runes already made progress?”

“Not at all.”

“Not at all? What does that mean, no?”

The aide tilted his head.

“That is incomprehensible. “So you called me here even though you had no business to do?”

“I have business.”

“What is it?”

“We will transform this entire old library into a learning space.”

“You can change it. Why?”

I looked at her quietly.

First of all, in order for representatives to fully learn, all content that has been cleverly edited must disappear.

That’s not all. In order for the academy’s students to use this as a teaching material as Violet wanted, even more elaborate modifications would have to be made.

“Aide.”

“Why?”

“We will revise all the contents of the old books.”

“You can do that too. Why.”

The aide answered indifferently and looked at the study rooms, then turned her head and looked at me again.

“Are you really telling me to do this?” ?”

I nodded quietly.

“… !”

A look of frustration began to spread across her face.
