Chapter 135
It was rude, but Professor Garcia found it difficult to refute.
If we were to compete on who has the friendliest student between Principal Skeleton and Professor Voladi, it would be a very fierce battle.
“well. Why are you asking that?”
Professor Baegrek is supposed to be in charge of something at the festival this time, but I’m worried to see him pass by like that.
“You will do well on your own.”
no. You are misunderstanding me. Professor Garcia.
Headmaster Skeleton said firmly.
Professor Baegrek doesn’t have any close students, so he’ll most likely call the Wodanaz boy.
“…ah.”
Professor Garcia understood what he meant.
Like the skeleton headmaster, who was the only one he was close to, there was a high possibility that Professor Voladi would do the same.
It was truly unfortunate for this student.
“How about the principal conceding?”
Didn’t you hear me?
“The headmaster misses…”
I can’t hear it even after hearing it again. What did you say?
“…is it so. There is no way you can make any concessions.”
Professor Bagleg! Professor Bagleg!
Headmaster Skeleton called Professor Voladi, who was about to pass by. The pale vampire wizard approached without a change in expression.
…so this is the situation. Do you understand?
“Can’t the principal yield?”
Ha ha ha… don’t bullshit.
“I didn’t bullshit.”
The conversation between the two wizards, far from the word compromise, gave Professor Garcia a headache.
Contrary to their worries, however, the two did not fight.
How about a compromise then? What if you divide the time in half?
“great.”
“……”
Beasts respect each other’s territory.
The principal and Professor Boladi quickly came to an agreement.
It was only the herbivorous animals that would be bitten by the beasts felt sorry for them.
for a moment. Over there, Professor Thunder Walk also passes by…
“Professor Thunder Walk has a lot of close friends, so just exclude him!”
Professor Garcia desperately stopped.
Still, isn’t thirds too cruel!

Without even dreaming that the schedule was added without his knowledge, Lee Han fell into trouble with Asan.
Professor Alpen said it was a ‘simple’ magic circle, but of course that was the teaching standard, and it wasn’t very simple for Lee Han and Asan.
“So when it’s finished, light spheres will float at regular intervals on both sides of the hallway, and an illusionary statue will be shown in the center?”
“I guess so.”
Asan read the book the professor gave him and spoke with a confident voice.
“Wardanaz. Professor Knighton is 100% insane.”
‘It seems that his mouth has become rough after entering school.’
But I could understand why Asan said that.
It was a magic circle that was too difficult for two freshmen to do.
Lee Han wondered if he could just fill the sphere of light with Lee Han’s magic and bring the actual statue to the statue.
< Specifications for Installation and Manufacturing of Simple Magic Circles for Imperial Banquets >
For wizards who are clumsy in speaking skills, splendid magic is a way to supplement their lack of social skills at banquets.
Some foolish mages take lightly attending banquets and networking, but this is a short-lived idea, and receiving donations from nobles is an important skill for a mage.
Here’s an anecdote about its importance…
‘It’s exciting for a lot of nonsense.’
Wizards’ books, even simple content, never simply wrote the main point.
There were many cases where I wrote a little about myself, wrote a little bit about what I ate yesterday, wrote a little bit about the weather today, and wrote a little bit about another competitor, and only then get to the main topic.
The book Professor Alpen gave me was also on the same side, but I was quite sympathetic to the contents.
‘It’s a way to extort money from nobles…’
Magic research required a huge amount of money. Among the studies of the empire, the most expensive one was magic.
Right now, the rare reagents are astronomically expensive, and in the case of rare artifacts, even if you have money, you can’t buy them.
Who can afford this kind of money? It was the wealthy aristocrats or rich people.
Although Lee Han did not have serious intentions in research, he was quite serious about extorting money.
‘Illusion magic, dance… music… literature… art… um… is there an easier way?’
“Wardanaz?”
“ah. I’m sorry. I was concentrating.”
Lee Han came to his senses.
Asan scribbled with a quill pen, lost in thought. Reading the specifications did not end the problem.
…Create the following diagram and channel as much magic as two muskrat rats. If so, it will work smoothly. Place mana stones with light element properties, but the mana should not be too high. There are times when the flow of magical power is cut off depending on the surrounding environment, but it can be solved by adding a small amount of the following reagents… As it is
all sorts of analogies and explanations that only you know, even if you read them all, you had to try most of them yourself.
Unlike Asan, who cursed the world while swearing at the professor, Lee Han started preparing silently.
For Lee Han, this irrationality was already fate.
“Let’s get ready.”
“…I’m really glad you helped me. Wodanaz.”
Asan also picked up his energy and started preparing for JuseomJuseom.
I drew a white line on the floor with Glow Spirit Ink, which has a high magical conductivity of the light attribute, and began to inject magic little by little.
If the mana is insufficient, it flows along the line and stops, and if the mana is overflowing, the line itself is destroyed, so I had to concentrate.
And most of all…
“…guck.”
Asan fell to the side with his face turned blue. Trembling, Asan pulled out a potion bottle from under his coat.
It was a low-grade magic recovery potion made during Professor Thunderwalking class.
“Whoa… Wodanaz. If I fall… avenge Professor Knighton instead of me…”
“Relax.”
Lee Han set out to test alone with Asan lying next to him.
Having a lot of horsepower wasn’t necessarily a downside.
Even if other mages took a forced break due to lack of magic during these simple repetitive tasks, Lee Han did not have to.
‘…why do you feel lonely? That’s strange.’
Shaking off useless thoughts, Lee Han continued to use his mana repeatedly to complete the magic circle little by little.
Click-
“?”
Lee Han and Asan raised their heads. Someone opened the classroom door and entered.
“Are you a professor?”
The one who opened the classroom door and entered was Princess Adenart.
The bloodline of the imperial family with long silver hair opened the door to study with his followers and was surprised to see the situation in the classroom.
“Mr. Wardanaz!”
“nice to meet.”
“What are you doing on the weekend… Alas!”
One of the followers nodded knowingly.
“You seem to be studying non-stop even on the weekends. I admired it.”
“……”
“…No! You have no eyes!”
Asan was hot.
Of course, Lee Han was the one who studied the most among the Blue Dragon Tower students, but this was not the case.
Who would like to do this?
“The professor made me do it!”
“Professor? why?”
“A friend is coming…”
Asan explained, the princess’s followers listened attentively.
And then I admired it again.
“Awesome!”
“…Uhm. It’s great, but it’s true.”
Asan put on an annoyed expression, but couldn’t reply any more.
Actually, it was a great thing. Because it wasn’t something anyone could do.
But doing this on a golden weekend makes me want to fire a magic missile at Professor Knighton’s face no matter what.
“oh. Wodanaz. I thought of a good way, would you listen?”
“Tell me.”
“I’m mobilizing that princess and her friends over there. Wouldn’t that be much more helpful? I think it will help 96% of the time.”
“Oh… but no.”
Lee Han just cut it off and refused.
Asan was taken aback.
“why?”
“That’s right…”
The reason Lee Han helped Asan instead of finding a way to escape school this weekend was simple.
Isn’t it to catch the eyes of professors and professor friends?
But if the princess joins in…
-No, who is that person? Aren’t you the princess? It’s an honor to meet you like this. You also have the ability to match your reputation. I’m still a freshman, but to complete such an elaborate magic circle!
…a similar situation was likely to occur.
Among the many members of the royal family, Adenart had a fairly high reputation, so the imperial officials couldn’t have known about it.
‘I’m sorry. For the sake of my success, the princess cannot participate in this tiresome and tedious task.’
“…because the professor entrusted it to the two of us.”
“Keugh. Right. I can’t help it if you say so.”
Asan respected Lee Han’s will.
If you don’t listen to the friend who abandoned the weekend and came to help, who will you listen to?
However, things went differently than expected.
“I. Mr. Wodanaz.”
“?”
“The princess says she wants to help. Can I help her?”
“……”
Lee Han was embarrassed.
Why do you want to help with this?
‘Does this look interesting?’
If Gainan was a member of the same royal family, he would have run away because he didn’t want to run errands just by looking at the magic circle, but he approached because he wanted to do this.
I couldn’t believe it.
Fortunately, Asan stepped in.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t. This is a job entrusted to both of us.”
“Dalcard. Wardanaz-sama may have a different opinion, right?”
“Wodhanaz’s meaning will be similar to mine.”
The princess looked at Asan coldly. It didn’t seem to mean anything good.
The princess, who was swearing with her eyes, whispered to her follower. A follower who had heard everything approached.
“Mrs. Wardanaz.”
“Why?”
“The… the princess said that she would like to participate in the task because she will give you a snack.”
“That kind of thing!”
Asan was even more surprised.
I’ll give you a snack!
It was an unimaginable promise.
“Wardanaz. I didn’t know you could say that…!”
‘Has he not recovered his mana yet?’
Seeing Asan speak so sadly, Lee Han was dumbfounded.
It seemed that his intelligence had gone down slightly due to his lack of magical power.
‘Mmm.’
Lee Han was troubled.
‘If I refuse here, the princess will hold a grudge.’
Originally, the higher one was born, the narrower it was. I could tell just by looking at Gainan Island.
And unlike Gainando, the princess had many people around her.
It can make Lee Han’s life twisted in detail…
‘Because they are like cowardly members of the royal family.’
“What are you doing?”
Professor Alpen, who was passing by, looked at the students gathered in the classroom and was puzzled.
“Other friends were saying they would help.”
As Lee Han said, he expected a little.
Professor Alpen’s snarky personality made it impossible to leave things like this unattended.
please kick it out!
“Excellent.”
Looking at Lee Han, Professor Alpen relaxed his stern expression and smiled slightly.
“yes?”
“For other friends to come out to help. You have good friends. Getting help from others is also a skill. Now that this has happened, direct the other students to make it. It is also a skill to command many people.”
Professor Alpen said that and left. Asan looked at Lee Han and said.
“Seeing you say that, do you think it will be okay? Wodanaz. Are you okay? Can I participate?”
“Asan.”
“??”
“I have to go to the dormitory and bring more guys who are resting.”
“That… that much??”
Asan was surprised.
I think this should be enough…!
‘It’s really thorough. I need to learn it too.’
‘Since you said that, I will increase the number and receive a higher evaluation.’
