Episode 655
“How could you say such terrible things in the first meeting?”
Priestess Cyana muttered in shock.
Among the students of Einrogard, the word fifth grade was a harsher word than insulting the family.
No matter how many enemies he is, how could he tell his opponent to stay in Einrogard?
“Jin calm down. priest. It can mean something else in Baldrogard.”
“It’s not a good idea for any magic school to rot for five years!”
Ingsen was taken aback by the words of the student who was a snake beast dressed as a priest of the Fleming Church.
The priest was too rough-mouthed.
‘Aren’t you a priest…?’
“What do you mean by fifth grade?”
Lee Han, who had been quietly silent, finally spoke up.
There was not much change in his expression, but Yoner could feel the subtle murder hidden under Lee Han’s sculpted face.
No matter how impregnable a friend it was, it was hard to bear the words of going to the 5th grade.
“That… That… Are you senior Lee Han from the Wardanaz family? Einrogard’s 5th year…”
“?”
“????”
Not only Lee Han, but also his friends were embarrassed.
what grade?
“Fifth grade?”
“yes. 5th grade… are you in 4th grade?”
“……”
Only then did the friends begin to whisper, realizing that the Waldrogard students were mistaking Lee Han’s grade.
“Why do they think Wodanaz is in the 5th grade?”
“Isn’t it because of the things you did in Granden City?”
“What did I do?”
“You fought the king of ghouls, fought the basilisk, fought the Mr. Serpent, fought the anti-magicist, and fought the magic criminals, right?”
“…There are things I didn’t do in that Grand City.”
Lee Han had nothing to refute, so he held his tongue.
Of course, it didn’t have much effect. Friends ignored Lee Han’s words.
“Well, rumors spread quickly. If I had heard rumors like this, I would have thought I was a senior in 4th grade.”
“I heard you think you’re a 5th grader over there?”
“No, no matter how strange it is. There’s no way what happened in Granden City and Ein Lorgard spread that far.”
Lee Han spoke again, but his friends ignored him again.
“Guys, can’t you hear me?”
“Um…”
The two students at Valdrogard were taken aback by the strange atmosphere.
“Aren’t you in the 5th grade, senior?”
“Rather, I wonder why you thought it was a 5th grader.”
At those words, Bashiu spoke softly from the side so that only Ingsen could hear.
“I must have been in the fourth grade like this.”
“……”
While Lee Han was dumbfounded and looked at Bashiu, Yingsen started to explain.
“Last year, seniors from our school visited Ein Lorgard. At that time…”
“Oh, that’s how it happened.”
At Yingsen’s words, Lee Han realized what had happened.
“What?”
“Do you remember the assignment Professor Knighton gave you at the festival last time?”
“What was it? Calculation of Imperial precipitation and consequent road damage and repair costs?”
“The number of wizards to maintain the empire’s fortifications?”
“Research in Ein Rogard made possible by Lee Han’s magical power?”
Since he was a professor who gave a lot of assignments, the answer from his friends was Jung-gu Heating.
Some of them didn’t even do it.
“Everything is wrong. And you didn’t even give me the last one.”
“ah. Han Lee. The last thing the professor said while you were gone. At that time, you were carrying out a request for a pocket knife fortress from the outside.”
“……”
Lee Han was astonished.
Trying to sell yourself to your friends while you’re away!
“…I didn’t say that. You know the statue of light and fantasy that Professor Knighton made at the festival?”
“ah.”
Only then did the friends realize what Lee Han was talking about.
During last year’s festival, several outsiders came, and the first year students prepared hard to treat them.
One of them was Professor Alpen’s magic circle. Creating light and illusion…
“That’s not an assignment, Wodanaz, you did what the professor didn’t ask you to do…?”
“Shh. Nilia. Even Lee Han gets hurt.”
Yoner stopped Nilia.
No matter how innocent the question was, it was a question that could hurt Lee Han.
“…Let’s just call it an assignment. Anyway, at that time, the Valdrogard students came and destroyed the magic circle.”
“that’s right. It was.”
“Anyway, the Valdrogards… yup.”
Lee Han covered Gainando’s mouth and continued to explain.
“I luckily replaced it with the magic I learned then.”
The Valdrogard students who visited the festival as guests had accidentally damaged Professor Alpen’s magic circle.
Of course, the Einrogard students criticized it, and Lee Han, who was worried that they would get scolded together because of a fight (and he had already beaten the Valdrogard students with water beads before that), stopped the fight and managed to get the situation back with < Azirmo Buyeo >. has been repaired
“Why?”
“At that time, the Valdrogard students said that I was a senior…”
“……”
“……”
My friends were speechless because they were dumbfounded.
How strong of an impression did he leave on his seniors at other schools to listen to his seniors?
“I thought I had cleared up the misunderstanding by talking to the professor, but I guess not.”
“It’s good though!”
Shiana let out a sigh of relief and said.
“I almost got mad when I found out that crazy people were telling Wodanaz-sama to go to 5th grade.”
“Say that. haha. I was embarrassed too.”
‘Didn’t Priest Siana speak a little harshly?’
‘It’s just that the Priests of the Phoenix Tower have all changed.’
While Nilia and Yoner were whispering, Yihan turned to face Ingsen and Vasiu.
“I think I know why such a misunderstanding arose. This happened when the Waldrogard students visited…”
Lee Han explained what heartwarming things had happened with Professor Alpen’s magic circle.
It was very pleasant to even be mistaken for a senior because of unfamiliar magic.
“haha. There are so many coincidences. Rumors are unbelievable. Yes?”
“…Oh no. Was that Lee Han from the Wardanaz family?!”
“…?”
Lee Han was taken aback by the unexpected reaction.
what?
‘Wasn’t it because of this?’
“That… the person who fixed the broken magic circle… uh…”
“It’s strange…? This double personality…?”
However, Lee Han’s embarrassment did not even compare to that of Yingsen and Bashiu.
The two of them were in shock as if the world had almost collapsed.
The senior student who meanly attacked the Valdrogard students with water beads and the senior student who kindly helped the Valdrogard students who destroyed the illusion magic were the same person.
“for a moment. Then what the hell made you think I was in the fifth grade?”
“Didn’t you beat the seniors with that water ball? Sleep a minute. Is this a false rumor?”
“…no. It is real.”
“……”
An awkward silence filled the drawing room.
* * *
It took about two hours for Yingsen and Bashiu to accept that Lee Han was the same age and helped destroy the magic circle after punching the Valdrogard seniors with water beads.
Gainando looked at the two of them in a pitiful way from the side.
If it was Kainando, I would have understood it in about 5 minutes.
‘So stupid!’
“So… the water beads…”
“That’s a bit misunderstood. It was not a fair duel or a magic showdown, but more like a festive entertainment.”
Lee Han was very blatantly lying.
It was a lie that the parties would never have admitted had they been present.
The horse was the game and entertainment of the festival, but the participants risked their lives to avoid the water beads.
If it’s not a duel, then what is a duel?
“It was like a game at a festival, and I embarrassed the seniors of Valdrogard because of it? This is a completely false rumor. You shouldn’t believe such rumors.”
“Ha, but the seniors said that they were in the 5th grade and that they were terribly beaten…”
“That’s a joke.”
“A joke?”
For Yoner’s support, Lee Han showed gratitude and accepted his words.
“It’s a bad joke. There are times when even the seniors of Ein Lorgard make jokes. Poisoning the underground corridor…”
“????”
“…making fun of incoming freshmen. Can you be sure it’s not a joke? really?”
Lee Han strongly pressed the two of them.
Yingsen and Bashiu were greatly shaken as he glared at them and said, ‘Do you really believe the story that I trampled on your ancestors with magic?’
“Is that… is that so…? Was it a joke…?”
“Ha, but that was obviously serious. It didn’t seem like the seniors were joking. I was trembling while talking…”
Lee Han said firmly.
“It is smoke.”
“A kite smoke?!”
“Seniors are always sincere when it comes to bullying juniors. Acting is natural.”
“…!”
Yingsen and Bashiu were greatly shocked.
Until now, I thought that Valdrogard’s ancestors were always the nobles of the nobles who were honorable and didn’t lie, but that wasn’t the case!
“Speak… nonsense! Seniors are nobles!”
“haha. It’s not that I don’t lie about being noble. Wouldn’t this be a white lie to make friends with juniors?”
Lee Han relentlessly made Baldrogard’s seniors into liars and even finished the probation.
“Is that so…”
“Maybe we trusted our seniors too much. We had to believe what we heard and saw with our ears and eyes.”
“that’s right. Just because you couldn’t avoid the water orb doesn’t prove your magic skills. The seniors may have known that and made fun of us.”
It sounded ridiculous, but Lee Han didn’t bother pointing it out.
Even as Lee Han, he didn’t want to have a title like < Collector of Baldrogard's Nose Bone >.
It would have been more honorable if he had won a fair duel, but breaking the noses of Baldrogard students with water beads at the festival was close to notoriety.
‘Has it been fixed somehow? Let’s see. Baldrogard bastards.’
Lee Han was embarrassed.
At best, I helped the broken magic circle, but spread it because I got hit in the nose at the festival.
Next time we meet, I’ll challenge you to a proper duel!
“What nonsense!”
“?!”
Cainan Island did not pass.
“If you can’t avoid water beads, you can’t use magic! What are the excuses for not avoiding it!”
“What are you talking about? That’s different!”
In response to Gainando’s cry, Yingsen unknowingly abandoned his honor and protested.
Basiu shouted as if he agreed.
“The skill of magic is not how fast you cast it, but how great magic you cast…”
“I can’t hear you, losers!”
“Are you listening? So dodging water orbs has nothing to do with magic skill? Even the great wizard Vaquantalana…”
“I can’t hear you, soil destroyers!”
“Magic is far more noble and dignified than fighting in the mud of the streets…!”
“Boo! loser! Dirt Breakers! Defeated Earthbreakers!”
“Profit!”
The faces of the two turned red at Gainando’s taunts and provocations.
“How could a person named Prince Hwang act so rudely…! Basiu was right, you don’t have the dignity of a member of the royal family!”
“They say I’m a loser, I’m a loser, I’m a loser, I’m a loser!”
Friends were amazed.
‘Doesn’t Valdrogard fight that much?’
‘Why can’t I withstand a provocation like that?’
Lee Han was worried inwardly.
‘It’s dangerous if you ask me to stick with magic.’
Even if the opponent’s magic casting was slower than Gainando’s and he was clumsy, it couldn’t be said that he didn’t have comprehensive magic skills.
Einrogard’s teaching method was unique, but among the empire’s mages, there were many mages who were slow and clumsy.
It was not a big flaw as it was rare to have to complete magic in a hurry.
It might be dangerous to compete in a field where Kainando is weak.
“This… only trusting in magic and behaving rudely. Do you think magic is everything if you’re good at it? Without honor and without character, magic has no value! Even if you are the top of your grade!”
“???”
However, instead of challenging Gainando to a confrontation, Yingsen and Bashiu lowered their tail and criticized him.
Shiana tilted her head and asked.
“Who are you talking about? Are you swearing at Mr. Wardanaz?”
“I think Cainan is talking too…”
