Chapter 562
I bought it at a pretty high price…
Despite deciding not to ask, the skeleton headmaster muttered to himself with a voice soaked in memories.
Your seniors didn’t like you very much.
“……”
“……”
Lee Han and Asan started putting things away.
I didn’t want to stay still and listen to other stories.
* * *
“You’re alive!”
After roughly checking the warehouse’s condition, the friends who found the two returned shouted with joy.
Asan said as if he was dumbfounded.
“It’s been less than an hour since I came back…”
“That’s enough time to disappear from here to the punishment room.”
“Indeed, it is.”
While the friend was convinced, Lee Han explained what the skeleton headmaster had ordered him to do.
As soon as the students heard it, they reacted in the same way as Asan.
“uh? It’s hard for us to live, too, so do we have to think about the freshmen?”
“I haven’t received anything from the seniors, but the freshmen also tell them to live on their own!”
“that’s right!”
‘It’s really warm.’
Lee Han thought that the future of Einrogard was very bright due to the warm response of his friends.
“Women. Calm down. Still, I can’t stop thinking of the juniors who will come next.”
Still, Tijeeling, a priest, tried to convince his friends, perhaps feeling that it was not a little.
When the friends hesitated, Cainando stepped out.
“no. I can’t! Let’s focus together and forget about our juniors!”
“Wasn’t Guinando-sama the most helpful from Wodanaz-sama?”
Tijeeling inadvertently wielded the truth and hit Gainando. Gainando was embarrassed and waved his hand in denial.
“Oh no? Not quite like that!”
“That’s right.”
“You honestly would have starved to death without Wodanaz.”
“The other tower guys don’t even know!”
When the students of the Black Turtle Tower and the White Tiger Tower gave instructions, Gainando jumped up and down.
I studied while being bullied in the break room, but these guys don’t know anything!
“Ugh. In the case of Kainan Island, it is true.”
“!?”
However, the friends of the Blue Dragon Tower did not particularly take the side of Guinando.
“Come to think of it, freshmen don’t even have wordanaz, right?”
“It must be a bit difficult…”
“Ah. Let’s do it. I haven’t received anything from my seniors, but that’s about it.”
With the exception of Gainando, the students chatted on their own and then entered the warehouse.
Thanks to the large amount of supplies secured last weekend, the current first year students were more generous than anyone else.
“Lee Han. Is there anyone who has helped more than me? Isn’t there at least one? There must be one guy below me!”
Gainando grabbed the hem of Lee Han’s coat and whined. Ignoring Lee Han, he entered the warehouse.
* * *
Put the broken potion or artifact separately in a wooden chest, take it out, and arrange the notebooks and quill ink bottles that are still usable separately…
“Should I let my juniors eat this?”
“Hey… you are really nice. good. Then I’ll drop the box of these candies.”
The first-year students hid a little something for juniors who will be entering everywhere.
If I hid it between books or writing instruments, next year my juniors would receive it and notice it.
“……”
Adenart was troubled with a serious expression.
Among the books on the shelf, I wondered if < Wizards Executed for Using Wicked Magic > would be a good book for juniors.
‘Should I take it off?’
“Princess. You don’t have to leave a snack if you don’t like it. I didn’t even leave Cainando.”
Lee Han saw the long-suffering princess and took care of her.
In fact, Gainando inserted a note saying, “The real snack is something you find on your own,” and was beaten by his friends.
“……”
The princess immediately found her bag and pulled out a can of canned food. And donated for juniors.
“Why not?”
The princess donated two more chocolates and then walked away. The followers were admiring and spoke to Lee Han.
“Aren’t you wonderful?”
“It’s great, but you don’t have to force yourself to do something you don’t like…”
“What are you talking about? Of course, he thought of his juniors.”
“is it?”
Lee Han nodded once.
The followers weren’t very trustworthy, but they would know better than Lee Han in this case.
‘Well, unlike Gainando, he’s a proper royal family, so he’ll be able to take care of his face.’
After the conversation, Lee Han focused on his work. Put the bloody, rusty knife away from the chest, disarm the broken scroll, and then burn it…
“?”
Lee Han found a letter stuck in the hidden space behind the shelf.
Freshmen who read this, please come to the Honggaksae room on the 4th floor by midnight.
-Written by a kind senior
“What is this?”
“Isn’t that the principal’s trap?”
“It’s good to be suspicious, but I think it’s a bit excessive to suspect everything in the world as the principal’s trap…”
Lee Han and his friends put their heads together and pondered over the identity of this letter.
“In the first place, it is not easy to enter the 4th floor. Didn’t you tell me to come to the 4th floor to die?”
“that’s right. It sounds grumpy.”
“omg…! good. I also sent a note to come to the 5th floor…”
Lee Han hit Gainando once and asked questions.
“Isn’t the letter a bit old? If this is enough, the seniors left behind could have graduated.”
“ah. That’s right. it’s a shame. Why did the senior leave something like this? You can’t even make contact in the first place.”
“no. There are also ways to temporarily neutralize the principal’s magic.”
“…?”
The friends next to me were about to ask, ‘How do you know that, Wodanaz?’
‘Well, since it’s Wodanaz, you’ll understand.’
Salcho flicked the letter, looking for hidden letters. Upon confirming that there was no special device, Salco whispered so that only Yihan could hear.
“But Wordanaz. It may not be a senior, but something left behind.”
“Well, that’s true…”
I was confused because it was written until midnight, but in fact, it could have been left like this because the room was closed after midnight.
And the senior must have known at least that a letter like this was not a good way to meet someone in person.
In the first place, since it was a warehouse used for lectures by freshmen, it was impossible to know when the other party would find it.
“Then is it really a thing?”
“I think the possibility is high.”
“hmm. I’m worried. I don’t want to do anything dangerous because I have plenty of supplies and the exam is next week. for a moment. Salco. Why do you keep talking like that from earlier?”
“To make the White Tiger Tower not hear me.”
“…Still, I’ll go with you.”
As Lee Han thought, the reaction of his friends was not that hot.
There are already plenty of things to eat, drink, and wear, but half of the friends reacted to whether they had to enter the dangerous 4th floor, and half of the friends said that Einrogard’s items might disappear at any time, so they had to get them as soon as possible while they were available.
“So I have to go now! You know that a difference of one day is fatal in Einrogard!”
“If it’s been fine so far, a few days difference will be fine. You’re doing this because you don’t want to study for the test!”
“How dare you feel such an insult?!”
While the friends were bickering, Yoner asked Yihan.
“Lee Han. what do you think?”
“I think this week is going to be a bit difficult anyway. I have work.”
“Aren’t you preparing for the final exam?”
“I have to take on the design commission for the pocket knife fortress and complete it.”
“……”
Yoner looked at his friend sadly.
‘Will he ever have a happy day?’
* * *
Contrary to Yoner’s worries, Lee Han was surprisingly not dissatisfied with the design request for the pocket knife fortress.
Unlike other tasks, don’t silver coins come out as a reward?
‘hmm. It would be great if Einrogard’s assignments were rewarded in silver.’
Thinking of swearing when the headmaster heard it, Lee Han teased the quill.
“Mr. Wardanaz.”
“Professor Knighton.”
When Professor Alpen Knighton called, Lee Han put down his quill and stood up.
Today was the first day to meet those who were in charge of the pocketknife fortress.
“Are the military preparations going well? I have to prepare for the final exam as well, but I’m worried that I’m overdoing it.”
“Thank you for your concern. We are doing our best to prepare.”
Lee Han, who gave a fake answer, hesitated.
Come to think of it, it was Professor Lee who led the group.
no?
“okay. In fact, I think that Mr. Wodanaz can do enough. That’s why I suggested it.”
“…ah. yes.”
It is said that one cannot spit on a smiling face, but Lee Han-eun was confident that professors would spit on a smiling face.
Following Professor Alpen, who smiled happily, Lee Han entered the room. The mirror-like artifact was already working.
-Professor Knighton. hello.
“okay. Nice to meet you all. If you are ready, may I send you the design?”
-yes. I am waiting.
Lee Han waited for the other person’s reaction with a nervous face.
I thought it was written well, but it was only Lee Han’s standard, and I didn’t know if the other person thought that way.
What kind of reaction will there be?
* * *
The < Kudrin > stonemason guild and the < Ida > carpenter guild received orders from the empire to build the pocket knife fortress.
Architects always have one goal.
To achieve the goal requested by the client as efficiently as possible within the given budget.
The overall construction and shaping were the work of these experts, and the first year students of Einrogard had to calculate the amount of magic power of the artifacts installed in the fortress, secure the supplyable power source, place the artifacts in appropriate locations so that they do not malfunction, and were things to do.
“oh. More than I thought…”
“Is it because you’re also from Ein Rogard?”
The guild members were amazed at the well-organized and easy-to-understand explanation.
Thanks to this, the external administrative evaluation of Einrogard students went up very high without even knowing themselves.
They were worried at first, but seeing this made me feel relieved. He was much more trustworthy than the suspicious wizard who talked about what towers he had built or what walls he built.
“Excellent. I really like the location settings of the artifacts.”
“thank you.”
Lee Han relaxed slightly.
How many times have you repeated calculations to make sure the artifacts don’t misbehave with each other in the right places.
It was supposed to be such a pleasure.
“But…”
“!”
Suddenly, the faces of the guild members became serious.
Lee Han was nervous again because he did not know what mistake he had made.
‘shit. Was there a mistake too? Time… no. Excuses don’t make any sense It’s something we do for money.’
It was meaningless to try to make excuses that the other person was a student of various schools when he was neither a professor nor a student.
Lee Han made up his mind to find out and fix it as soon as possible.
“Some…”
“Let me see.”
Professor Alpen frowned and checked the report.
The professor, who was reading it quickly, seemed to have found the problem right away, but his expression became as serious as that of the guild members.
“This is a bit strange.”
“Professor noticed. It looks like there was a mistake.”
“If you don’t know, let’s check it out. Didn’t you notice something odd here, Mr. Wardanaz? The amount of magic power consumed by the artifacts.”
Lee Han listened to Professor Alpen’s question and turned his head as quickly as possible.
In order to pursue efficiency, the Artifacts installed in the fortress now had their magic consumption reduced as much as possible.
If you save in that way, you will be able to run even if you install relatively less horsepower that supplies horsepower.
So I mobilized all the methods Lee Han knew and reduced it in his own way…
‘Should I have reduced it more here?’
Thinking that the skills of real professional wizards are amazing, Lee Han asked honestly.
“sorry. Is the consumption too high?”
“No… I meant too little. Artifacts wouldn’t consume this little.”
“yes?”
Lee Han was puzzled and confirmed. It didn’t look like he made any mistakes.
“Simple artifacts can be reduced to this extent.”
“???”
