Chapter 384
Lee Han, noticing the skeleton headmaster’s astonished gaze, quickly retreated.
“I was just asking. In an academic sense.”
What kind of bone is that bone, and what kind of jewelry are you talking about?
Skeleton Principal said bluntly.
The bracelet, which was carved from the headmaster’s own bones, couldn’t escape even if it was shaken by ten thousand demons.
Of course, no jewels were needed.
‘Sorry.’
‘He thinks that this kid is regretful.’
Headmaster Skeleton looked at Lee Han and cursed. If
such a conscienceless bastard
had been Professor Mortum, he would have shed tears of emotion!
“Is there anything I should be aware of when using this bracelet? Maybe it absorbs a lot of mana?”
I don’t even know how much of a curse a bracelet can absorb your mana. It’s not that dangerous.
“Tsk.”
…but it’s not that easy either. Think of the beings in it.
Lee Han listened to the headmaster’s words and pondered.
According to the ghoul king’s words, the beings within this bracelet were those who had been defeated by the ghoul king.
Then…
you get it? Strong…
“weak… uh. Are you strong?”
Then why would you have to lock up the weak guys like that?
Headmaster Skeleton was taken aback by Lee Han’s words.
If they were weak beings, they wouldn’t have to be confined like that, and the headmaster wouldn’t have woven them into bracelets.
They’re quite usable, so they made them like that, didn’t they?
“I thought they were weaker than I thought because they lost to the ghoul king.”
The Skeleton Headmaster was originally a warlock who was ruthless towards the undead, but this time he sympathized with the ghoul king.
To think I was being ignored like that by a young freshman.
How proud were you?
You’d better be careful with your words. Because the guys inside might be listening. Right now, we’re all busy fighting each other… but maybe one of them will come out someday.
Inside that bracelet was a place like a miniature version of the dungeon Lee Han had been through.
The fierce and lofty beings never cooperated even if they were defeated and locked up together. Rather, they tried to relieve their inescapable resentment by stepping on each other.
Although Lee Han couldn’t see it, countless souls were still struggling inside the bracelet.
However, if Lee Han’s skills improved and he qualified to attract the attention of the spirits trapped inside…
the spirits might stop fighting and try to talk to Lee-han.
“If it’s a conversation… you mean you listen to my orders?”
well. don’t know that All those trapped inside must be ferocious and stupid.
‘Because I just told you to be careful with your words.’
But one thing is certain. You are the owner of the bracelet. They are slaves in captivity. Make it clear. Then they might be able to hear orders.
“indeed. Just like the Einrogard students…”
Headmaster Skeleton pretended not to hear.
Meanwhile, Professor Garcia lifted Ogoldos lightly like a straw.
“Let’s take it out at once.”
Seeing this, Lee Han’s respect for the professor suddenly rose.
It was because of the way he took care of the students, not because he lifted Ogoldos lightly.
It would be better to let them rest here for the day than to move them right away. If you force yourself to move too much, it may get worse.
“Principal…”
Lee Han was slightly moved.
I never thought Headmaster Skeleton would take care of it like this.
After all, there were only Einrogard people like Miuni and Gounihae.
I’m talking about Ogoldos, not you. you are very fine
“……”
* * *
While Ogoldos was sleeping soundly at the inn and taking a good rest, Lee Han asked Professor Garcia about his progress.
The fact that the progress was delayed for two weeks made Lee Han more distressed than the fact that he was locked up for two weeks.
“You mean two weeks too late!? I’m done now!”
“Lee Han-student. I don’t think so…”
“How can you follow two weeks!”
‘Isn’t it enough to follow…’
Professor Garcia thought to himself, but he did not dare to say it to Lee Han’s face distorted with grief.
“Since it was the start of a new semester, everyone didn’t teach me much. All the other professors only taught the basics.”
In Professor Garcia’s view, the progress that professors from other schools are now making has already been achieved by Lee Han.
To be honest, I felt like I would catch up even if I took a break for about two months instead of two weeks.
“Come to think of it, what is Professor Garcia teaching this semester?”
“This semester, we are teaching magic that is useful in real life.”
In the first semester, as he introduced other schools of magic and taught them the basics, in the second semester, he intended to teach magic that was useful to young wizards even though they did not belong to any particular school.
Knowing these things will give you an advantage in surviving in Einrogard.
“…to miss a lecture like that for two weeks!!”
“I’ll teach you right now, so calm down.”
The magics Professor Garcia taught for two weeks were < Component Separation > and < Low Dark Vision >.
< Ingredient Separation > was a magic that was essential for wizards who prepared potions or reagents to separate certain mixtures with magical power, and < Low Dark Vision > was a magic that allowed people to see in the dark even though their vision was unclear.
And both were magic that Lee Han had already learned first.
“uh. It’s magic you both know.”
“……”
Professor Garcia hated Lee Han for the first time in a while.
“…I will explain the second semester lectures. Because you couldn’t hear it.”
“thank you.”
Unlike Professor Garcia, who teaches < Basic Practical Magic >, most of the lectures have not changed much.
Professor Thunderwalk is still teaching < Intensifying Understanding of Basic Alchemy >.
Similarly, < Advanced Imperial Geometry and Arithmetic >, < Intensive Basic Empire Language and Logic >, < Intensive Basic Vehicle Training >, etc. were all lectures that were an extension of the first semester.
“Fortunately, none of the professors went missing, so it was maintained.”
“……”
Lee Han got goosebumps at Professor Garcia’s smile.
Can I say that so plainly now?
“for a moment. professor. In my case, I couldn’t apply because I was late. What should I do?”
“By the way, doesn’t student Lee Han listen to almost everything anyway?”
“……”
Lee Han was speechless.
Professor Garcia hurriedly changed his words, perhaps feeling a little sorry.
“That doesn’t mean you don’t have to apply. However, student Lee Han was not available, so I applied instead.”
Lee Han received the paper that Professor Garcia held out.
Almost the same lectures as the first semester were written.
“professor. Why is the principal’s < Intensive Basic Magical Character Education > included?”
“yes? It’s a required course… You heard it in the first semester, right?”
Lee Han averted his gaze as if regretting that he did not work.
“……”
Professor Garcia glared at him, but Lee Han looked at the paper as if he hadn’t seen it.
‘for a moment.’
Han Lee felt curious when he saw the list of lectures written under his name.
Basic Practical Magic – Garcia.
Understanding Basic Alchemy Volume 2 (Strikethrough) Intensive – Thunder Walk.
Intensive repetitive learning of basic magic combat – Bagleg.
Magical Personality Education!
…
“Why are all the fonts different?”
“ah. Some professors came and wrote and went.”
“……”
Lee Han opened his eyes.
Professor Garcia left writing instead, so professors came and added their own lectures and left.
Is it okay?
“Wouldn’t that be?!”
“Oh, you didn’t mean to listen anyway?”
“That’s true, but maybe you can’t hear me…!”
“Do you have anything to take out?”
“I don’t have one…”
“??”
Professor Garcia tilted his head, not knowing what was wrong with Lee Han.
‘It’s just an ominous thing.’
He was fine now, but the fact that that was possible made Lee Han afraid.
Of course, it was an emergency situation, so he had no choice but to take over as assistant manager.
During the course registration period in his sophomore year, Han Lee vowed to submit while avoiding professors.
“…uh? Wait. professor. Why is there < Basic Dance and Social Engagement >? Haven’t you heard of this?”
“yes? Didn’t I write it?”
“??”
Professor Lee Han-do and Garcia were also embarrassed.
Optional lectures that had not been heard or written by each other were included in the list.
…I put
“no…!”
Lee Han looked at the skeleton headmaster like the world’s most despicable betrayer.
The skeleton principal was dumbfounded at the feeling of betrayal, as if someone had stolen the soul of some student.
Is adding one more lecture such a reaction?
“Why am I listening to that?!”
It’s not Emperor P… you’re just too preoccupied with magic. You should also take up some other hobbies.
Professor Garcia almost nodded involuntarily.
“So you learn swordsmanship, ride training, geometry, and language, right?”
Ordinary young people in the Empire don’t call it a hobby. Anyway, it’s already been decided, so I can’t fix it. Listen to that much.
“Don’t lie. The headmaster’s magic could fix it.”
Seeing the disciple ignoring his speed and bluntly talking back, the skeleton principal wanted to hit him once, but he held back.
Later, when I met the emperor, if I said, ‘The principal hit me’, he could have said, ‘Come to the capital immediately’ and flew away.
Wait a minute, the knights outside are calling me!
“principal!! principal!! Seriously, I can throw in the imperial capital!”
The skeleton headmaster snorted as he floated and flew away.
I’ve heard all kinds of threats, but I’ve never heard of a threat as absurd as that one! Where do you work hard!
* * *
It was real that the knights called the skeleton headmaster.
“Gonadaltes. The adventurers made a lot of noise, so I did an investigation, and among them there were criminals with bounties. How are the others…”
If one of the party members is a criminal, the disposition of the others has become quite ambiguous.
As there is evidence but no physical evidence, it was neat that the highest person in the seat made the decision.
And the person in charge of this position was Headmaster Skeleton.
Skeleton Principal solved it neatly.
do you guys know each other?
“no!”
“You idiot!! Answer the wizard’s question…”
That’s a lie. are acquainted with each other Send them to the capital’s prison!
“no! no!!”
Among the screaming anti-magicists, Bakdeogul was shocked.
I couldn’t believe how the Archmage of Einrogard knew and arrested them.
Aside from the grudge, his formidable ability was terrifying.
‘how…! How the hell! Did you foresee with magic!? Nonsense!’
While Headmaster Skeleton praised the knights for their neat work, Lee Han came out and started talking.
“principal. The old man has woken up.”
okay. Let’s start off slowly.
“But those dances and socializing…”
Oh. You have one serious problem.
Pretending not to hear Lee Han’s words, Headmaster Skeleton changed the subject.
“What is it?”
Originally, he should have trembled in fear, but Lee Han looked at the skeleton headmaster in disbelief.
The knights next to him were astonished.
‘How can I be so arrogant in front of Gonadaltes-sama?’
‘How much do you want to be favored…?!’
Because you’ve been in the undead plane for so long, fraud oozes from your soul.
If you hang out with the spirits for a long time, the scent of the spirits will emanate from your soul, but if you hang out with the undead for a long time, the scent of the undead will emanate from your soul.
It wasn’t that black magicians weren’t popular for nothing.
However, after hearing the explanation, Lee Han was puzzled.
“It doesn’t matter, does it?”
He wasn’t popular with the spirits anyway, so if he was going to learn black magic, it didn’t matter if he cheated a bit.
It was kind of sad…
but that’s how it is. What’s wrong with learning magic and the scent of magic wafting from your soul? The problem is that you have more magic than you think, that morale is bigger than you think, and finally, there are undead enemies.
Wizards with the scent of spirits were often visited by spirits, while wizards with the scent of the undead were often visited by the undead.
If there was an undead enemy with a lot of magic and morale like Lee Han, he
did not know what kind of dangerous undead would come with interest.
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Lee Han’s face hardened.
‘Black magic really has too many flaws!’
If you learn magic hard, you will receive undead visits.
What kind of magic is this?
Nothing to worry too much about though. Because there is an easy way.
“Are you listening to dancing and socializing?”
no. Stay in the Phoenix Tower. The energy of the priests will drive away the fraud. This semester should be enough.
Headmaster Skeleton said as if it was nothing. It wasn’t really a big deal.
That morale would quickly decrease just by being with the priests.
However, Lee Han said in a serious voice.
“principal.”
why?
“Then won’t my friends die of starvation?”
…People don’t die of starvation that easily. Probably.
