Chapter 112
Lee Han didn’t know.
What a great opportunity it was to be so affectionately loyal to a griffon.
‘this guy…!’
Professor Lightning Walk was cool with frustration. Lee Han picked up the pipe with a worried expression and said.
“Did you swallow the wrong thing?”
“no!”
Who cares about whom now?
Professor Lightningstep calmed down and spoke again.
“How about being a little nicer?”
“How can I be more… kind to you here?”
Lee Han replied in a slightly embarrassed voice.
His voice was so heartfelt that he had nothing to say even with lightning strikes.
The students didn’t know it, but the lightning stride was constantly watching the stable.
It was only natural that he entrusted the childlike horses to the ironheads, or to the freshmen.
And Lee Han really sincerely took care of Griffon. It was not easy for a boy from a noble family to be that diligent.
Not only did he save his life, but the affectionate devotion he had shown before also played a part in making Gryphon open his heart.
…But that’s it, and not trusting Griffin now means not trusting it.
“Is there something wrong with the way I feed or brush myself?”
“no. It’s not like that… there’s something like faith or trust, right?”
-Phuheung.
The white horse nodded as if asking for more.
Of course, Lee Han did not go over easily.
“There is a difference between being kind and trusting everyone without questioning them. professor. Isn’t the latter irresponsible?”
“……”
The boy of the Wodanaz family was saying only the right things today.
It was right that it was not a good habit to overlook the instincts of animals while taming them and just trust them unconditionally.
Trust and love, but it’s right to doubt to some extent…
but it’s right…!
-Puh-heung! Whoops!
“Look at this. Are you angry right away?”
“okay. Take care of yourself.”
When Professor Lightning Gait gave up and turned around, the white horse glared at him.
Yoner asked curiously.
“By the way, what’s the name of that horse? Even when I called him by name, he didn’t listen.”
The horses in the stable understood that if they were called by name, they would call them, but the white horse did not.
To be precise, I refused to understand.
– I think you hate it no matter what name you give it.
-Isn’t it just a bad temper?
-no. Maybe it’s because it’s not a name I like.
-Isn’t it just a bad temper?
-Maybe they originally had a different name, so let’s ask the professor later.
-I think he just has a bad temper.
Professor Lightning Walk was a little taken aback.
I was glad to turn around. I was able to hide my expression from the two students.
“Pawn… Phone League.”
“Ponrig… That’s an unusual name.”
“Ponrigra.”
Lee Han looked at the white horse and said.
“Phone League. Am I right?”
-Pu hee hee!
The white horse shook its head disapprovingly. Lee Han looked at it and said confidently.
“It’s just that you have a bad temper.”

Thanks to Professor Lightning Steps persuading the spirit of the river, the students who arrived later were able to drink more easily.
The students who came first and had a hard time grumbled.
“I don’t drink water like that.”
“Do you have any idea how difficult it is for those guys to drink water? It’s real to feed the river spirit when it’s angry.”
Lee Han approached the lightning-footed professor who was recording the score. said the professor, flicking his pipe.
“why? Wordanaz, your score is perfect. Nothing to worry about.”
“I didn’t come because of that, I came because I wanted to ask you something. I found the monster’s name while reading a book, but it’s the first time I’ve heard of it.”
“Tell me.”
“Do you know about the monster called Sharkhan?”
“He is the king of leopards.”
The lightning-walking professor brushed off his pipe and said.
“According to the legends of the mountain people, he was born between rocky mountains and leopards. That is why it is a monster that leopards worship.”
“Is it a dangerous monster?”
Whether he was born between a rocky mountain range and a leopard, or between a spirit king and a leopard, it didn’t matter to Lee Han.
How dangerous is it?
To Lee Han’s question, Professor Lightning Walk answered absurdly.
“Wouldn’t that be dangerous? Are leopards dangerous?”
“…What do you think it would be like if you made a monster called Sharkan into an undead?”
“Why do you do such a dangerous thing? Being an undead monster does not mean that the ferocity and ferocity of life completely disappear. If they show gaps or become dissatisfied, they may release control and attack.”
“Oh…”
Lee Han pondered whether to cast magic behind him or swing his sword the next time he met Professor Mortum.
‘Isn’t this worse than the principal?’
Even the principal didn’t give me a monster like that as a gift!
“But why are you asking that? Do you already want to make an undead monster?”
Professor Lightningwalker said with a grin.
There were often rumors that the professors had excellent magic skills, and it seemed that talented people were different no matter what.
“no.”
“There is nothing to be embarrassed about failing. Setting a cheeky goal is something you can only do as a freshman.”
‘It’s not real.’
“But even if you want to try making an undead monster, it would be better to research well in advance and choose a useful one. You know the number 3 reason why the most Imperial warlocks died last year? If you use a monster that doesn’t fit in the bowl as an undead pet, that’s what happens.”
“……”
Lee Han unknowingly stroked his neck.
‘I’ll have to do better in the future…’
* * *
Professor Lightning Walk stopped waiting and said.
“You must have learned a lot from today’s test. Those who acted lazily would have learned how their laziness came back, and those who acted diligently would have witnessed their diligence bear fruit.”
Lee Han looked at the phone league at the professor’s words. As the white horse blinked with innocent eyes, Lee Han doubted.
‘This bastard is cheating again.’
-Pu hee hee hee!
The white horse got angry, probably noticing Lee Han’s suspicion. Again, diligence was far from bearing fruit.
“If you feel that you are lacking, do not end with it, but try to fix it. It’s not just about domesticating animals. Magic is not learned overnight.”
Everyone nodded their heads in amazement.
However, Lee Han thought to himself.
‘Aren’t the lazy guys out now?’
It was the diligent students who were impressed by the professor’s words, and the lazy students hadn’t even come near the river yet.
Lightning Walk also said that he knew that.
“Tell this to the lazy bastards now. Class is over! See you next!”
“thank you!”
The students tried to calm down and go back.
At that time Salko of the Tutanta family approached.
“Wardanaz.”
“Tutanta.”
“Are the carrots good for the horse?”
“okay. Well fed. Thank you.”
“I gave it to my horses because they liked it, but I’m glad.”
“????”
Rowena, who was passing by, looked at Lee Han with an expression of shock and fear.
What did you just…?
“I came here because I have something to ask of you.”
“Are you a master of carrots?”
“no. The carrot was gratitude for what happened the other day. This job is different. I have something that needs your skills.”
Lee Han was a little surprised.
I never thought that such a proud Salko would ask Lee Han like this.
What’s going on?
‘Are you trying to rob the principal’s warehouse?’
“Tell me.”
“I need your cooking skills.”
“……”
* * *
The < Eternally Burning Phoenix Tower > was a tower where priests from various denominations of the empire gathered.
Among the towers of the Magic School, it is the quietest and most calm place.
The dwarf Muhadin was a priest belonging to the Sisenza Church.
The Church of Knowledge and Learning, the Church of Shisenza is respected by many as it is a Church that researches, transmits, and preserves various studies of the Empire.
The Tutanta family were also patrons of the Sisenja Order.
“The problem is that Priest Muhadin doesn’t eat too much.”
“……”
Lee Han was still bewildered and belatedly came to his senses.
‘Why did you do that to me?’
“That… that’s right. It’s unfortunate. It must be because of the poor environment of the magic school. Did you go and talk to the principal?”
“no. Meals are not a problem. I used to be someone who ate less. The problem is that in the church, other priests took care of it, but there is no one like that here. Even if the other priests in the tower try to pay attention, there is a limit.”
Lee Han tried to say, “So why do you do that to me?”
Maybe it was the Blue Dragon Tower, but if you were from the Black Tortoise Tower, there was no way there wouldn’t be a better cook than Lee Han.
Salcho, however, spoke first.
“While thinking about it, I heard about your cooking skills. I asked the other priests in the Phoenix Tower, and they praised your cooking skills.”
“It’s because the priests are kind.”
Lee Han knew what had happened.
It had the opposite effect because she flattered Priest Shiana too much.
How the hell did he compliment me…
“You must have heard it from Priest Siana, right? Because Priest Siana is kind…”
“I also asked Priest Tigilling and heard from other priests as well. Wodanaz. You are too humble.”
The Black Turtle Tower students behind Salko nodded as if they had no choice but to admit it.
The tomato-vegetable stew the Wardanaz boy made at the black market the other day was amazing.
One of the Black Turtle Tower students even glared at Lee Han with great resentment.
“Here, Renjid, comes from one of the best chef families in the Empire. But I admit I can’t beat you.”
“……”
For a moment, Lee Han wondered if the other person was crazy.
‘It’s not a fair match at all…’
Yes, Lee Han can use all kinds of materials at will, but the opponent can use only limited ones, so there was no way that such a reaction would come out.
But anyways!
“So you want me to cook for you?”
Lee Han came to his senses and asked.
It was embarrassing, but there was nothing I couldn’t do.
It wasn’t a bad thing to have Salco pay off his debt, or treat a priest of the Sisenza Church.
There’s nothing wrong with being friends with someone who always studies well.
“okay.”
“Right. Have you prepared the ingredients? Or can I help you? I can give it to you cheaply.”
At Lee Han’s words, Salko shook his head.
“no. I have already found the materials I need. All you have to do is go get it together.”
“okay? Where are you?”
“To the kitchen.”
“?”
Lee Han hesitated.
Was there a kitchen in the dorm tower?
“Where is the kitchen?”
“The kitchen in the basement of the main building.”
“…Right. I’m going to stand up now because I’m reminded of my busy work.”
“Wait, Wodanaz! This needs your help!”
“Not without you! If it wasn’t for you who broke into the White Tiger Tower…!”
The students of the Black Turtle Tower hurriedly ran.
In order to attack the back side of this labyrinth-like magic school, a boy from the Wardanaz family who had mastered magic was absolutely necessary.
“Why do you say strange things when you say you need cooking skills? Bring your materials and come out. Then let me cook for you.”
“Wardanaz. Of course, we didn’t mean to just ask! You will change your mind when you see this.”
Lee Han was puzzled.
Is there anything that will change your mind?
‘what?’
“It is a book of forbidden black magic.”
The Black Turtle Tower student carefully took out the steel box. When I opened the lid, the book with the bloody cover spurted out a bloody curse.
“Close it!”
bang!
The students quickly closed the box. And he said with a proud expression.
“How about it? If it’s this, you’ll think about doing it. Wodanaz?”
“…no?”
“?!?!”
