Chapter 114
The party skillfully opened the door behind the central entrance on the first floor of the main building and went inside.
A space that is not normally open to students has begun to appear next to the hallway.
At the appearance of an empty banquet hall or large hall, the students of the Black Turtle Tower stared at it, unknowingly mesmerized.
Why do students have to eat hard bread in the lounge when there is such a place?
Lee Han and Ratford exchanged glances.
-Never let your guard down.
-of course.
Ratford recalled Thief’s Creed.
‘When you go back to the place where you turned once, you have to be careful several times.’
Lee Han recalled the Skeleton Headmaster.
‘Since the underground passage was pierced last time, he must have changed and strengthened the defense system.’
I couldn’t hope for the luck of going straight into the basement without a crowd like the last time.
clap.
just as expected.
In the distance in the hallway, I could see plate armor walking this way.
* * *
-No matter how much it is, does it make sense to mistake me for a freshman?
-……
When it was discovered that Lee Han and Ratford had succeeded in escaping through the passage of the underground material warehouse, the warehouse keeper was called and reprimanded by the principal.
But the warehouse keeper did not waver.
-But even if you say that, the amount of horse power doesn’t make a distinction.
– Such a fool… Yes. i get it. Obviously, even if I said this, I can’t change it right away.
Headmaster Skeleton didn’t say anything more about the storage keeper’s attitude.
The warehouse keeper was too capable to be reprimanded for missing Wodanaz this time.
An existence that is in charge of various chores such as facility and facility maintenance, as well as simply managing materials in the underground warehouse.
In addition, I couldn’t be more reprimanded for this mistake, as I sometimes went on patrol and caught unlucky students wandering around at night.
And to be honest, this mistake was an unavoidable mistake even in the eyes of the skeleton headmaster.
Who would have known that a strange boy like a boy from the Wodanaz family would appear in front of a warehouse keeper who uses magic to distinguish intruders?
-I will lend you my summons. Don’t rely too much on magical powers, and check intruders in other ways.
-yes. I will do my best.
-If you find a boy from the Wardanaz family, don’t miss it. They must be sent to the punishment room.
-Why should I?
-Can’t we just do something?
Anyway, after the conversation with the skeleton headmaster, the warehouse keeper raised the level of alert behind the main building and underground.
The students did similar things to mice and ants.
Once they know that it works, they keep flocking to it from then on.
As such, it was necessary to give the students a sharp lesson.
Don’t even dream this way!
The summoned beasts lent by the headmaster of skeletons will surely capture the fearless students.
The warehouse keeper went around the designated route today and started inspecting it.

“It’s a walking armor!”
The Black Turtle Tower students whispered in horror.
“Do you know him?”
“I have met you.”
The students of the Black Turtle Tower looked trembling.
How many students were taken away for that walking armor?
Even if there were no people inside, even if they attacked fiercely, they gathered their armor again and got up, and even if they barely managed to tie their feet, they immediately called their comrades.
Lee Han was lost in thought.
‘Is there a way to catch it?’
Hearing it, it was a summoned beast that reminded me of the last owner of the sandy beach, King Zorvan II.
A non-living, inanimate-type pet.
But just because he wasn’t alive didn’t mean he was invincible.
If more than a certain amount of damage is received, the summoned beast will no longer be able to withstand and will be reverse summoned.
The problem is…
‘The most effective thing is lightning elemental magic, but if you use it now…’
It’s not whether you win or lose in a fight, but the moment you fight, it’s an unconditional loss to the students.
It would be like shouting ‘We’re here!’ if you use loud and flashing magic like elemental lightning magic.
‘I’d better avoid it.’
“I don’t think I’ve found it yet, but I’d better avoid it. Did he follow you well?”
“I do not know. Depending on the time…”
Lee Han turned around to retreat with the group.
clap.
But before I knew it, another piece of plate armor appeared far behind.
The faces of the Black Turtle Tower students turned pale.
“I will lure them…”
“Sideways!”
Lee Han opened the door without hesitation. It was the door I had been eyeing to open from the time I entered the hallway, just in case.
An old space appeared that seemed to have been used as a lecture hall in the past. All sorts of junk was piled up behind chairs and desks.
The Black Turtle Tower students unknowingly looked through the clutter to see if there was anything useful. It was a kind of occupational disease.
“If everyone’s armor comes in here…”
“I know. Wodanaz. Are you telling me to scatter and run away? Even if someone gets caught?”
When faced with an insurmountable crisis, they disperse and run away to minimize damage.
The Black Turtle Tower students were already familiar with this principle.
“no. Don’t be surprised and run away because I’ll shoot magic and knock you down. It will probably be extremely noisy.”
“……”
The Black Turtle Tower students thought as Lee Han proudly brought up a story to defeat the plate armor.
‘You brought me well!’
How many people would say that they would knock down the plate armor once and for all?
The Black Turtle Tower students really thought it was a good idea to bring them along.
rattle!
“?”
I heard a rattle from the junk behind me. The students, who were very nervous, turned their heads in bewilderment.
“Did you touch it?”
“No… you?”
Paper and a quill came to mind. And then the letters were engraved.
-Can’t be quiet, freshmen?
“Yu… It’s a ghost!”
-It’s not a ghost, it’s a senior. You stupid freshmen.
The students stopped trembling at the words engraved on the paper. But I wasn’t completely relieved.
“If you’re a senior, why… are you doing that?”
“that’s right. Show me your face.”
-Don’t be crazy. I don’t want to go to the punishment room. Now this is too dangerous!
“…?”
For a moment, Lee Han wondered what he was talking about.
‘ah. If you come into contact with a first grader, the principal will send you to the punishment room.’
It was a very worthy thing for a skeleton headmaster.
If it wasn’t for that, a few students who came into contact with the seniors would have come out.
-Anyway, lower your voice and talk in writing. If you don’t want to get caught by that armor. And don’t talk nonsense about freshmen using magic to knock them down!
Lee Han slightly reflected on the words of the senior he did not know.
Was it that much?
“I thought I could use elemental lightning magic… I’m sorry.”
-…You know how to use lightning elemental magic?
The opponent seemed a little flustered. The handwriting trembled.
-Still, don’t do it because it makes the surroundings noisy. That I’m being caught
Lee Han and the Black Turtle Tower students realized that meeting their seniors like this is a very valuable opportunity.
When will the opportunity to talk to the person who entered the school first come like this again?
“senior. How can I get away with that armor?”
“senior. Which way is the best to go to the kitchen from here…”
“Senior. What is on the < Basic Imperial Geometry and Arithmetic > test?”
The senior seemed taken aback by the sudden flood of questions.
– Am I the one who came to answer your questions! Can’t you stay still right now? Not knowing what kind of armor that armor was…
Lee Han stopped his friends.
It would have been a loss if I could not listen to the story that could be heard by provoking the senior.
“Let’s all calm down and listen to what the seniors say. senior. What kind of guy is he?”
The walking armor was a summons often used by the Skeleton Headmaster.
Since he is not alive, he can walk around the school all day, and he even has the ability to detect heat, so he is a notorious summoner who snatches out unlucky students!
However, the harsher the school is, the more the students evolve accordingly.
The students also had some tips.
-Disturbing it with flame magic, tricking it with heated illusions, covering it thickly to prevent heat leaking out… I hung illusions in the classroom here. Even if you open the door, the armor won’t notice. But it’s no use if you make noise, so please everyone shut up!
‘ah. Maybe that’s why I felt a sense of incongruity.’
Han Lee convinced himself.
When I entered the classroom earlier, I felt a subtle sense of incongruity.
No matter how much I looked at it, nothing had changed, so I thought I was mistaken, but it was an illusion that allowed only moderate heat to be detected.
‘It can be used in this way.’
Lee Han thought he had learned something good and remembered it. There will be a lot of things to go around school in the future, but it will be helpful.
“I didn’t notice it at all.”
“me too.”
-If you noticed, would that be illusion magic?
The quill moved quickly and left a note. There seemed to be some pride in the handwriting.
“So what were you doing here, senpai?”
-……
“???”
-…I was on my way to the kitchen.
“Good for you! We were going to the kitchen too.”
“But why did you want to go to the kitchen, senpai?”
The old man was silent again. Lee Han asked.
“Isn’t that because you’re hungry?”
“no way. Wodanaz. I hope so.”
“that’s right. He’s not a freshman, he’s a senior…”
-…That’s right. There’s a reagent hidden in the kitchen, and it’s because I need that reagent.
The senior hurriedly left an excuse. The other students admired, saying ‘yes’, but Lee Han looked suspiciously at him.
‘I don’t think so.’
-All the armor passed. Let’s move now.
“Couldn’t you learn the illusion magic that deceived the armor?”
Lee Han asked.
Of course, if you wait, you can learn magic like that someday in fantasy magic class, but Lee Han needed that right now.
When you meet a walking armor, you can’t say ‘Please wait until I learn’.
The old man snorted and started writing.
– It’s not magic that freshmen can learn just because they teach it.
“Even if it’s a method…”
Lee Han persistently asked for it, and the senior wrote an explanation as if it were annoying.
Farheit’s lower fantasy.
This magic was the magic that deceived the armor that was walking now.
As you can see from the spell ‘Heat, distort the air’, this is a magic that summons an illusion filled with heat.
Instead of changing the scenery inside the classroom with this magic, the senior spread only moderate heat like a curtain.
This alone was enough to avoid the gaze of the walking armor, and summoning illusions at the same time would consume a considerable amount of mana.
There was no reason to waste mana needlessly.
‘A freshman wouldn’t be able to.’
The reason he told me so obediently was because I thought it was absolutely impossible for a freshman.
How could he use this magic when everything from how to handle mana to the amount of mana he could use was lacking.
It was faster to let them know and quickly give up than to just refuse.
-Freshmen, hurry to the kitchen…
“Fever, distort the air!”
Along with the spell, fantasy enveloped Lee Han and the others.
In the eyes of the senior looking from the outside, Lee Han and his party seemed to have disappeared.
It was his first time casting it, so Lee Han wasn’t sure if it worked well.
“Did you get this right?”
-…I think the aesthetic sense of fantasy is a bit lacking… and should I say that the color sense is weak…
The senior, who had unknowingly caught fault, blushed after realizing what he was doing.
What kind of ugliness is this!
