Magical Academy: Rise of the Supreme Magic Craftsman

After Wallace fell unconscious upon consuming the potion of Divine Sense, it took him a day before waking up again.

Wallace opened his eyes and checked his digital clock near his bed. It is already 6:00 PM of the next day. It seems that the potion was too amazing or his body\'s foundation was too weak to consume the high-grade potion.

[ You have successfully learned Divine Sense. ]

It was a notification that came from the Pathfinder after Wallace got up from his bed. A burst of information suddenly surfaced in his mind. It was all information related to the usage of Divine Sense.

"So, it was like these."

He closed his eyes then activated his Divine Sense. His sensory perception expanded to almost 100 meters, he felt all signs of life and objects within the range. He could see what was happening within this scope and it even felt that the time slowed down. No, his senses were actually accelerated as well.

"Mhm... This sensation. Divine indeed."

Wallace regaled at this newfound ability. As he tried to explore this new ability of his, he spent almost a whole day fiddling with his divine sense and discovered some weaknesses on it as well. Apparently, there were some occasions where magicians were able to sense someone peeking at them. It was due to his imperfect control of divine sense.

Luckily, with the increase of his concentration and abundant knowledge, it only took Wallace several tries to correct this and he got familiar with its usage after spending a day with it. He discovered as well that it wasn\'t actually consuming that much of mana when activating the divine sense and it was almost negligible.

Unfortunately, even though he could use the sensory boost that divine sense provided, he still could not use the other abilities it could do. It seemed that he needed more potion of it to further upgrade this ability.

Within the same day, Wallace contacted his parents to get assistance to register his magic structure. He would definitely get a patent for it.

His parents were surprised about their son\'s achievement and more than happy to support him when he spoke about his plans to have a patent on this magic structure.

Wallace lived at Tanza City where a branch of the National Magic Trade and Industry was located. His parents had already contacted necessary personnel to assist him with this and he only had to meet with someone his parents knew in the Intellectual Property Office to guide him through the process. After all this, he got the patent-pending status and was told to wait for only a month.

Patent-pending status just meant that it was already filed in the patent office. Even if an inventor had that status, it was still undetermined whether he would get a patent. Normally, this status would last for about a year before receiving a patent.

"Yumi! So, what was the structure the kid has submitted?"

A tanned man with messy black hair and wearing a black suit, entered the room demanding an answer to his question. Percival, the new headmaster of the Leonhearts Academy, just pushed the door open in the office of the Director of Magicians Bureau of Patent. This office was located inside the NMTI.

"Perci at last, you\'ve arrived. Here take a look at this and give me your thoughts."

A middle-aged lady was fiddling with her computer when her cousin arrived. She too had black hair and her reading glass could be seen on her head. She was wearing office attire that fitted her slender but sensual body. She gracefully passed her tablet device and shown something to Percival.

"So, that\'s why you\'ve called me here! Magic Jammer Canceller! This is an amazing innovation!"

"That\'s true, it was amazing for a student to accomplish this."

"Right, I actually researched this Wallace from our academy. With the information I found about him, he doesn\'t seem to possess something that can allow him to create this innovation. He was just average until recently. The most incredible performance in the Academy was that recent exam they had but..." Percival explained as before he left the Academy, he made sure he had enough information.

"Yes, I really want to learn more about him. He actually agreed when we mentioned that we would like to make this as secret as possible and for it to be used by our government."

Yumi added as once they learned the capability of the magic structure, they immediately did their best to contact Wallace and to make arrangements for military integration of the magic structure. Even though there was a scarce number of magic jammer users, they were still there and were a problem to deal with. Especially the one creating a variant magic jammer. It was tough to deal with someone who was equipped with that variant.

Percival checked the pages about the other description and about the magic structure limitations. It was perfect. Without considering future upgrades, the limitation was just basically the coverage area of the canceller and that it required precise control with the mind for its usage. But the improvement of material and structure for a further upgrade was definitely doable to improve its performance.

Wallace was inside the headmaster\'s office in the Academy. He was actually quite curious about the reason he was called out here. He was in front of the dignified Percival who was behind his desk and looking carefully at Wallace.

"Traceless Hands, it is the name you would like to use as the creator of the new magic structure recently submitted in the Patent Office. Not a bad decision, I must say."

The conversation started with that. Sir Percival just revealed to Wallace that he was aware of what he was doing. Wallace was somewhat aware of the ripples his magic structure would create in the government so he was only surprised a bit when the headmaster learned it. After all, Leonhearts Academy and other academy were somehow tied or controlled by the government as combat magicians were coming from these academies.

"Yes, I chose Traceless Hands for the brand of my creations. Though I would like to keep my identity as confidential as possible." Wallace spoke confidently in front of the headmaster.

"Well, I can understand your point and I can help with that."

Wallace only needed enough prestige to allow him to participate in the TMAC. As long as his skills were recognized by the top brass, it would be easier for him to have an opportunity to retrieve his spaceship.

"Only a few months until the selection of the participants for the TMAC... I was hoping I could participate there."

He wanted to step ahead and make arrangements for the future since he was now in front of the headmaster anyway.
