Chapter 129
After the skeleton headmaster disappeared into the dawn, the students let out a sigh of relief.
“for a moment. Pretending to disappear, apply invisibility magic, and then hide around?”
“It could be hiding nearby! Throw a stone just in case!”
‘The magic school is ruining the talents of the empire.’
Lee Han looked sadly at his friends who were starting to fall for conspiracy theories.
“Anyway, I’m sorry. The Phoenix Tower had students who were caught…”
The students of the Blue Dragon Tower had perfect scores because none of them were caught and dragged away, but not the Phoenix Tower.
There were a few Priests who were captured while escaping, so they had no choice but to lose their score.
“It’s okay because the teaching is important, not the score.”
Priest Tigiling said in a reverent manner. Lee Han was stunned by the sight.
‘Isn’t the score important?’
In the end, what remains as a record is not the score.
And the teaching depends on the teaching, so what kind of teaching is important in a lecture like this?
There were only crumbs of teachings like ‘don’t hang out with a lich’, ‘don’t trust people’ and ‘beware of the undead when sleeping at night’.
“Ugh… that’s right. Teaching is important.”
When Lee Han’s answer came out strangely late, Tigilling was puzzled.
why are you replying late?
“really. Come to think of it, priests are coming to school this weekend.”
“!”
Lee Han’s face brightened.
When the priests of the Imperial Church came to the school, it did not end with simply distributing food and drink.
Above all, the skeleton headmaster’s wisdom… No, the difficult teaching of the skeleton headmaster was reduced a little.
Consciences of the Empire improve the school!
‘Maybe I’ll be able to relax this weekend.’
Moreover, Lee Han is a person who is determined to join not only the Freesinga denomination, but also all denominations that can be entered.
Since the priests came to visit me this weekend, I was thinking of visiting and looking for a new denomination.
Considering that…
‘Why didn’t the Wardanaz family support all other noble families?’
Lee Han complained inwardly.
Look at Yoner’s family, the Maikin family!
Didn’t the bloodlines of the family benefit from diligently supporting the Fleming Church?
Even if you don’t believe me, can’t you give me some support?
‘There is no point in complaining. I make my way.’
Even if the family doesn’t help, Lee Han only goes on Lee Han’s path.
Lee Han looked at Priest Tigilling.
The charismatic gaze made Priest Tizzling slightly nervous.
“Do you have anything to say…?”
“Priest Tigiling. While I couldn’t see you, you became very skinny.”
“……”
Isn’t it?
“It’s been less than a day, but there’s no way I’m going to get skinny…”
“Since I’ve been to the Blue Dragon’s Tower, I need to eat something more.”
“……”
Thanks to Lee Han, who was called periodically and said, ‘I brought some tea with meat broth in a pot’ and fed it, there was no nutritional problem with the tigiling.
And no matter how bad you eat, there’s no way you’ll run dry even though it’s been less than a day since you met someone.
“ruler. Go sit down.”
“It is a sin for Prisinga-sama to eat extravagant meals…”
“I see. But if you don’t eat, I’ll starve Cainando together.”
“?!”
Gainando, who was clearing the barricade from the side, looked at Lee Han with eyes shocked by the sudden spark.
Why me?!
“Priest…! If I skip even one meal, I’m hungry…!”
“……”
Tigilling had no choice but to sit quietly in her chair. Lee Han nodded his head with a grim expression like a skeleton headmaster.
“I guess the other priests should also be seated.”
“But most of the tower’s priests are frugal, so they’ll consider a meal like this a sin.”
Priest Tizzling said in a slightly pouting voice.
“Isn’t it because of the Tigilling priest… threatening Gainando?”
“no.”
I said no, but it didn’t seem like it really was. Kainando said as if he didn’t understand.
“But the meals we eat are really frugal…”
“……”
“……”
The Blue Dragon Tower students passing by looked at Guyando like crazy.
Has this bastard already eaten a really frugal meal?
“I guess everyone can feel burdened with a meal like this.”
Lee Han nodded.
Of course, Lee Han wasn’t doing this because he had surplus ingredients.
The white tiger tower has already crossed the river of no return.
Although his relationship with the students of the Black Turtle Tower was relatively smooth, there were times when Lee Han was misunderstood because of the groundless rumors spread by the students of the White Tiger Tower.
However, the priests of the Phoenix Tower were not wise and kind.
They will not be fooled by rumors and believe in Lee Han.
And above all, if they were treated generously, wouldn’t they say something good to the priests who would come to visit them on the weekend?
Whether the Phoenix Tower students liked it or not, they had to eat. Lee Han’s eyes shone with ruthless determination.
“Cainan Island. follow me I need you to help convince me.”
“??”
“……”
Gainando did not understand why Lee Han was calling, but Priest Tigiling noticed and was shocked.
* * *
Lee Han took out the food he had piled up in the pantry.
Honey and sweet tree sap for dipping were served on the table, along with buttered white bread. Whole roasted, salted, or smoke-smoked pork and beef were placed beside it. The fish in the canned food was also thinly sliced on the plate.
He also brought out a jar of fresh milk that he had stolen or borrowed from Professor Thunderwalker’s cabin.
After removing the jam from a glass bottle containing various fruit jams, I put it in cold milk and stirred it to make a drink. It was a rare sweet drink that was hard to drink at school.
“Did something like this happen?!”
“I don’t usually do it even if I ask for it, so don’t ask me to do it.”
‘How did know?!’
First, he hit Gainando on the back of his hand as he tried to eat one and made him back off, then Lee Han checked the soup.
The scent of the thick boiling broth made the students of the Blue Dragon Tower happy.
“Sharkan.”
Lee Han threw a piece of meat at Sharkan. Gainando looked at him with an envious gaze, then rolled his eyes when Sharkan growled and glared at him.
“Almost done. Ask everyone to sit down.”
Lee Han also used the gravy from cooking the meat sparingly. Add the vegetables you are growing yourself, stir-fry them, and then dissolve the flour to make the sauce.
‘It’s okay.’
After tasting it, Lee Han admired his own talent. How can you use the gravy that comes out while cooking meat so well?
This would definitely go well with the fresh vegetables from the garden…
‘…I should stop thinking about it.’
Strangely, his magic skills didn’t seem to improve that fast, but his cooking skills seemed to be improving.
Yoner, who was helping others prepare, was puzzled as he saw the carrot cupcakes and sweet pumpkin cookies being baked next to him.
“Where did you get this?”
“I made it with stuff I brought from my garden.”
“……”
“…This is not a particularly specialized or difficult dish. Yoner. It’s an easier dish than you think.”
‘I didn’t say anything…’
Yoner was taken aback by Lee Han’s sudden excuse.
“got it?”
“Yes, yes.”
I’m not sure what he meant to know, but Yoner nodded, pushed by Lee Han’s force.
I don’t know why, but Lee Han seemed to want to insist that he wasn’t serious about cooking.
…From Yoner’s point of view, that was very sincere, but…
* * *
The young priests who fought all night, although they sat down because of threats, were moved to eat a hot meal.
Lee Han felt proud when he saw the student stuffing food into his cheeks.
‘No. It must have been Cainan Island.’
Upon closer inspection, it was not the Phoenix Tower student, but Gainando.
Fortunately, the Phoenix Tower students were also enjoying their meal.
There was no sound of speech, only the clattering of plates and bowls.
“thank you. Lee Han from the Wardanaz family.”
“I just did what I had to do.”
In his heart he was saying that he wished him well on the weekend, but Lee Han did not show any signs of it.
Instead, he nodded his head with aristocratic dignity. The young priests were deeply impressed by the attitude.
“It was said that a priest from the denomination would visit the school on the weekend.
“Right. If you do, I won’t stop you.”
“But…”
“?”
When the opponent hesitated, Lee Han was taken aback.
Why?
‘Could it be that the Wodanaz family has been blacklisted??’
Seeing what the patriarch said about the Imperial Orders, it wasn’t strange if they hated the Wardanaz family.
“Then the priest would want to meet Lee Han of the Wodanaz family in person and express his gratitude… I wonder if he’s already too busy. Resting on the weekend…”
“I’m not busy at all. Rather, it’s a problem that I’m too free every weekend.”
“Is that so?”
The young priests of the Phoenix Tower were taken aback by Lee Han’s words.
No matter how you look at it, he looks like a very busy person…
Seeing him talking so seriously with that face, it didn’t seem like a lie or a joke.
‘is it?’
‘I’m sure he really did.’

“Black magic?”
Lee Han raised his hand at Professor Garcia’s question.
“Summoning magic?”
Lee Han also raised his hand at the next question.
“Illusion magic?”
Lee Han raised his hand again.
Then, I met the eyes of the Phoenix Tower students sitting next to me.
“…I’m not busy at all. Got it?”
“Bar… You seem to be busy.”
“Leehan… you’re busy… you need to cut back a bit.”
Not only the Phoenix Tower students, but also the Blue Dragon Tower friends were shocked.
Before taking the paper test, Professor Garcia divided the test takers according to the interests of the students.
And Lee Han entered all fields.
No matter how you look at it, this wasn’t it.
‘Isn’t that how you fall?’
“Even in my opinion, you are too harsh. Wodanaz.”
“It seems a bit…”
Even the students of the Black Turtle Tower and the White Tiger Tower interrupted.
However, Lee Han did not waver in the slightest.
“I still have room.”
“Student Han Lee should… I think we should cut it down a bit…”
Professor Garcia said in a worried voice as he walked away.
As the old saying goes that the bird that sings the most beautiful song dies the fastest, a genius with outstanding talent had to be careful not to be swallowed up by that talent.
“I am giving advice based on my own experience. Lee Han student. Exploring all fields of magic is the natural fate of an ambitious young wizard with talent and aspirations…” ‘
Every word in the sentence seems to be the opposite of mine.’
“It’s really hard.”
“Did Professor Lee Han learn various magic together?”
“There used to be.”
“Then, wouldn’t it be possible to do this?”
“uh… That’s true…”
Professor Garcia was speechless at the words that caught Guyando off guard.
what?
is it?
When I thought about the rough road I had walked, I wondered if the student should be stopped from walking that road…
Come to think of it, I wondered if Professor Garcia had the right to do so.
Even more so if you are a wizard with a gift like Lee Han.
“Um… But back then, there was no one like Professor Bagreg… No, it’s nothing.”
Professor Garcia stopped abruptly because he couldn’t gossip about another professor with his students.
However, Lee Han immediately understood what Professor Garcia was trying to say.
“Well, student Lee Han is better than me, so it might be okay. Yes, I won’t say anything more.”
Professor Garcia clenched his fists and shook them as if to cheer up, then walked away.
Lee Han suddenly felt uneasy, as if he had missed his last chance.
