Fake Professor, Misunderstood As Strong - Chapter 120

Chapter 120: The Lost Kid who met the Golden Light… Part-1.
Midnight, Principal’s office.

*Step**Step*

Jareth walked inside the office with an expressionless look on his face and followed the same process as before to make the magic barrier appear in front of him.

‘I really underestimated your determination to hide the things that are inside your hidden library, Nathan…’

‘You really created a very impressive barrier; it must have taken at least a decade to perfect this barrier to this kind of state…. I never thought I would say this, but you really are ‘Good’ at barriers…’

Even with ‘Mana Singularity’ and extreme mana purity, it still took Jareth such a long time to finally analyze the whole magic barrier and find a countermeasure for it.

Moreover, he even ended up asking for help from Thomas too; all this just shows how much time and effort Nathan put into creating this barrier.

If this was just a simple high-grade barrier, Jareth could have easily seized control of it in just a week, but the barrier that Nathan put on this hidden library is extremely strong.

It’s even stronger than the monster protection barrier that is protecting the whole capital city.

‘It won’t be wrong to say that this barrier is basically a ‘Semi grade-0′ barrier that can’t be broken forcefully by even grade-1 mages…’

Even if several grade 1 mages come and attack this barrier with all their might, they will still need to keep bombarding it for several months before it can finally be broken.

‘It’s as if Nathan dedicated a significant part of his life just to make this barrier so perfect and powerful…’

Every ‘Artist’ dreams of creating a ‘perfect’ masterpiece that they can dedicate their whole life to.

And this Magic Barrier is without a doubt a ‘Nearly Perfect’ masterpiece that you can’t replicate and can’t recreate.

Even if Jareth copies its mana circuit and formula, the barrier is ‘unique’ to Nathan, and it won’t have the same effect when used by others.

Nathan ‘Nearly’ molded the ‘Law’ of ‘Protection’ in this barrier.

If not for Jareth having ‘Mana singularity’, it would have been impossible to get rid of this barrier.

‘I am really amazed… to think someone as cunning and efficient as you will go and waste a decade or two just to create a barrier that can hide a small library inside it?…’

‘Just what are you trying to hide so badly, Nathan?’

Jareth raised his right hand, and his grimoire floated in the air beside him.

He focused his whole mind and then used the countermeasure that he found to slowly seize the authority of the barrier by embedding his own mana in it.

Time passed fast, and two hours went by in a flash.

Jareth nearly emptied his whole mana reserve in just two hours.

His mana is much purer and denser than others, which means that even a grade 1 mage wouldn’t have been able to keep up with the high requirement of mana needed to assume authority over this barrier.

‘So this is the power of the world’s ‘Laws’… This barrier hasn’t even properly manifested the ‘Law’ of ‘Protection’ yet, and it’s already so strong…’

Even Jareth was impressed by the amazing power of this ‘World’s Laws’.

Jareth’s ‘Mana Singularity’ is a ‘Legendary Grade’ skill that has the power of ‘Law’ backing it up.

But even ‘Mana Singularity’ is just a ‘path’ to that certain ‘Law’; only by manipulating the ‘Law’ itself can you achieve the power to bend the world to your will.

And maybe that is one of the steps needed to reach the next realm, which humankind has always dreamt of.

…

*shaaammmm~*

The mana circle changed its color from golden to purple as Jareth took over.

He waved his hand, and the magic circle got deactivated, causing the mana barrier to disappear.

Now Jareth can activate and deactivate this barrier at any time with just a simple command using mana.

‘Finally did it…’

Once the magic barrier disappeared, a mechanism was activated, and a secret door in the wall opened by itself.

Jareth searched through his space ring, brought out a mana recovery potion, and recovered his mana to full capacity first.

Nathan put so much effort into ensuring the safety of this place; it can have anything stored up inside, so Jareth dared not be careless, and he deployed his own mana shield before entering.

[Basic Magic: Mana Barrier!]

‘Okay, let’s go in…’

With the barrier ready, Jareth took a deep breath and headed inside.

The hidden door closed on its own, as did the magic barrier, after Jareth walked inside.

Jareth glanced at the ‘Mana stone-powered bulbs’ that illuminated the area and thought to himself.

‘These things… they have mana bombs inside them…’

Nathan’s preparations were indeed very thorough; he even put bombs inside the hidden library so as to keep the truth hidden.

‘I guess if I had forcefully broken this barrier, these mana bombs would have self-destructed and the whole hidden library would have been reduced to ashes and smoke….’

‘Thankfully, I decided to do things more peacefully this time…’

Jareth shook his head, moved through the narrow corridor, and arrived at a small, hidden room.

The floor was made up of ordinary, weak stones, and there are more mana bombs buried under this seemingly ordinary floor.

Jareth couldn’t help but frown.

‘This place is equipped with bombs the same worth as the whole university, which is very expensive…’

If these bombs explode, not only the whole university but the whole area within a radius of 2 kilometers will be destroyed. (For my freedom-loving readers who don’t know what a kilometer is, 2 km = 1.24 miles, approx…)

‘He literally dug a hundred-foot-deep hole in the ground to fill it with massive mana bombs…’

‘What the f*ck was this guy even planning!? Even the military needs permission to use such dangerous weapons…’

‘Where the f*ck did he get so many of them in the first place!?’

Jareth couldn’t help but be shocked at this insanity.

‘Forget it; I should stop thinking of that guy as a sane human being…’

Jareth shook his head and looked around to see what was so special about this place.

All of a sudden, his intuition, his mind, and every single cell in his body were attracted to one single book that was placed on the highest shelf of the third book cabinet.

Jareth didn’t think much at all; he just walked over to the cabinet and took out the book with a calm expression on his face.

But after seeing the title of the book, even Jareth was shocked, and his expression changed to solemn for the first time in a while.

What he has discovered today is indeed something that is worth being serious about.

The title of the book that Jareth was holding in his hand was:

[‘Cosmic’ Records of Strar U’lbyatre the ‘First King’ of the ‘Unified Human Empire’!]
