Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

The core reason why Mages are honorifically referred to as "Magnates of Magic" lies in their extensive Magic Skill Bar, capable of dealing with a plethora of situations. Under the enhancement of their professional core, they can precisely and rapidly replicate and cast Magic Models.

It wouldn't be wrong to say that due to this feature, Mages have become one of the overpowered professions.

But now, thanks to the permanent and unequivocal nature of the System panel, every Spell that Kael solidifies into a skill will be eternally fixed in his heart.

No need for a professional core, he can cast them directly from memory!

This trait, in conjunction with the Dark Knowledge and the Keyword of Strong Memory, is constantly improving the skill experience bars for various Spells that Kael possesses.

Add to that, last week, he smoothly advanced to Extraordinary Rank...

Perhaps in time, outsiders will honor him with titles such as "The Repository of One Hundred Thousand Magical Books",

"The Mobile Great Library", or "The Phantom of Knowledge's Echo".

Come to think of it, it's quite thrilling!

However, Kael feels that his biggest problem at present is not a lack of skills in his Skill Bar, but the fact that he possesses too many, which sometimes lead to indecision in battle about which skill to use.

One might say this is a worry resulting from excessive accumulation of power.

Now, as the founder of a new school of thought, he has actually gained some fame within the small circles of Mages.

If initially he needed his teacher Luxius to assist him in transforming relevant magical theories into tangible Magic Models, now he is fully capable of independently developing corresponding Spells with his own accumulated knowledge of magic and understanding from his previous life—

Or rather, that's exactly what he's doing now!

War Mage!

This is the external name for this brand new development path for Mages.

Of course, if Kael intends to firmly establish his title as the "Founder of War Mages", it seems he still has a long road ahead of him.

His gaze shifted to the old mage who had just been standing at the door, casting Spells on Kael for an extended period. Kael could vaguely hear some soft scolding coming from outside.

"I remember telling you all, when you see someone who doesn't look like a student, you ought to observe whether they are Mage instructors or visiting Mages from the Zelda Islands.

Don't you know that the empty front row is reserved for individuals with special circumstances?"

Kael heard the student reply with some grievances, "But I didn't see any clear indication that he was a teacher on him?"

"Conny, you are a Mage. I don't expect you to recognize everybody in the academy, but those golden hair similar to Lion Heart's, those starry, stunningly beautiful blue eyes, and a beauty that surpasses the ordinary!

Conny, has your brain been filled with sh*t? Besides Lord Kael, is there a second person like this in our academy?

And you even dare to talk back to me, open your eyes wide and look—whether it's his current achievements or his status, this is an area he should be able to enter and leave at will!"

...

Kael didn't continue to eavesdrop; he was someone who despised privileged classes, unless the privileged one was himself.

And truth be told, in a world where individual power is extraordinary, whether one wishes to admit it or not, power is held only by those who possess strength.

As Kael settled into a seat next to Luxius, someone nudged him from behind. Turning around, he saw Lily sitting in the row behind, smiling tenderly, poking his shoulder with a swaying finger, and whispering:

"Kael, long time no see!"

Kael glanced at the layout of the classroom, which resembled the kind of tiered lecture hall found in Human Federation universities, with the back rows gradually rising higher and even a device placed in the middle of the venue to broadcast the scene at the lectern to a crystal screen.

Senior Sister Lily, who was tinier than Kael, looked down on him from behind, and one could vaguely make out the outline of her appropriately small yet distinct form.

Apparently wishing to greet Kael, she leaned forward slightly over the gap, and her body, somewhat unstable, swayed in mid-air, appearing a bit more conspicuous than usual.

"Senior Sister Lily, be careful..."

Kael moved a bit closer to her, but before he could finish speaking, the flustered Lily tried to stand up to regain her normal seating posture, but unwittingly lost her balance, and her whole body started to fall forward.

"Not good, she's falling."

She instinctively closed her eyes, but the anticipated pain did not come. Suddenly everything seemed very quiet around her, and she found herself in a warm embrace.

The early spring sunlight streamed over the windowsill, shining into this little corner. The semi-open flower buds were distorted with movement, Lily felt the surrounding noise particularly jarring, but when she came to her senses, she heard a softly accelerating heartbeat.

She shifted her position slightly and looked up to see a face that was obscured by the glaring sunlight.

"Senior Sister Lily, have you advanced?"

"Ah?" Lily, maintaining a somewhat awkward posture, raised her head to gaze at the youth, who looked rather stern but also incredibly reassuring.

"Haven't you noticed yet? But even if not, you're on the cusp of it. Also, Senior Sister Lily, I admit I'm quite charming, but throwing yourself into my arms..."
