I Became a Flashing Genius at the Magic Academy [158-362][English Translation]

Episode 270 Chapter 51: Memory (4)

Memory (4)

A red oval barrier expanded broadly, reaching the end of the sky, centered on Isaac Morph's body. Hong Bi-yeon, while constructing the Flame Circle, activated the Memory Compass she held close to her heart.

Mana does not leak out.

No one notices.

'Dual Casting.'

Casting more than two spells at once might be overwhelming for a 4th-class mage, but her concentration is exceptional.

Considering that Eisel used the 'Super Resonance' spell, which can only be cast by a 6th-class or higher mage, when she was only 3rd-class, it is not surprising that Hong Bi-yeon can already use Dual Casting.

Their talents and efforts know no bounds and stretch endlessly.

Wooong!!

The Memory Compass, pointing the direction of time, spins.

1 year and 4 months ago, 9 years and 7 months ago, 71 years ago, 34 years ago, 3 years and 6 months ago.

The times it points to are jumbled.

Because she cannot control the compass properly.

Those times are likely etched into history as significant events that took place at this location.

'I need to find the exact time.'

She remains calm about herself.

This compass is not an easy artifact for a mere 4th-class mage to handle.

If she looks into memories of a too distant past, she might not be able to return.

'It's okay. My calculations are precise.'

She prepared thoroughly for this moment. She slightly removed her hand from her staff, letting the Flame Circle unfold freely.

The construction was perfect, and even without her interference, the Flame Circle would maintain itself with Hong Bi-yeon's mana until the purification ritual was complete.

From now on, she will look back at the past.

Heup!'

When she infused mana strongly, the rotation of the compass became rougher, and when the speed reached a critical point...

Flash!

A white light flashed before her eyes.

-Ah.

When she opened her eyes again,

A wind blew.

A cold, dry autumn wind.

But it was different from the current wind.

Hong Bi-yeon slowly lowered her head and looked at the ground. The grand altar she had just been at was nowhere to be seen.

'...I came properly.'

There is no time to hesitate. The time to look into the past memories is very short.

Given the considerable mana and mental strength consumed in constructing the Flame Circle and avoiding the taboo, staying for more than an hour would be the limit.

'I need to hurry.'

In the process of looking through memories, she cannot move by foot. As it is a process of scanning through past 'memories,' she needed to adjust coordinates to examine other places.

Thunk!

Using a little mana to move to a nearby location, a tent presumed to be a forward base appeared.
