Chapter 330
After seeing Lee Han break another bracelet, Professor Verdus asked curiously.
“Can I just destroy it without unlocking it? Do you think that would be faster?”
“It’s not possible.”
While clearing away the rubble, Lee Han answered firmly.
‘I should save it when it’s really important.’
Lee Han took care of the remaining two.
I was planning to use it when there was an important exam or when Professor Voladi threatened to kill me if I didn’t learn the rotation property perfectly by today.

< Shadow Patrol > hunter Vaishada made an appointment in front of the Maikin family mansion and waited for Nilia.
As a hunter of the same < Shadow Patrol >, I cheered on the students who entered Einrogard, brought gifts that my colleagues asked me to bring, and… ‘May I ask
how you got into the Meikin family’s mansion???’
Vaishada looked up at the Maikin family mansion with a puzzled face.
I couldn’t figure out what the heck he was doing to stay inside.
Threatened with arrows??
“How the hell are you doing here?”
Ge Esse, a hunter belonging to < Wasteland Star Catcher >, answered as if it were natural.
“Isn’t there a friend of the Meikin family?”
“What nonsense. Why would nobles with high noses be friendly with guys like us?”
“Sometimes there are nobles with the souls of hunters.”
“what? Is there such a thing? I didn’t see it.”
“There…!”
The children passing by were shy and started talking.
The two hunters looked at each other as if something was wrong.
“By any chance, that outfit… Are you a star hunter in the wasteland?”
“That’s right.”
Esse nodded and said. Vaishada was deeply jealous of that appearance.
Aside from the reputation itself as a star catcher in the wasteland, Esse had a strangely melancholic and profound feeling no matter what he did.
‘Is it a matter of angle?’
While Vaishadha was confused and checked her angle, the children asked him for an autograph.
“Please write Yellow Wasteland Star Catcher!”
“Here too! Please come here too!”
“ruler. ruler. Calm down. I am not going anywhere.”
“……”
Vaishada glanced at the children.
However, it seemed that the children couldn’t recall anything from Vaishada’s outfit.
‘Heuk.’
“thank you!”
After the children left, Esse said a little tired.
“I’m grateful that you know the name of the star catcher in the wasteland, but my heart is heavy because you seem to be expecting too much from me, who still lacks a lot.”
“That must be terribly difficult.”
Vaishada muttered. The Esse was puzzled.
“What did you say?”
“no. nothing. I’m envious of star hunters in the wasteland.”
“is it? I envy the Shadow Patrol more.”
“……”
Vaishada thought for a moment whether he should grab him by the collar.
Who is this bastard making fun of right now…
“The Shadow Patrol doesn’t care about lies and silently protects the northern mountains. On the other hand, we… It’s not that we don’t understand the policies of the higher up, but there are too many useless visits from unrelated people.”
“That… that’s right.”
Vaishada was both happy and envious to hear the praise.
can’t we just change it?
“Besides, didn’t the Shadow Patrol even include students enrolled in Einrogard? There must be that many young hunters with outstanding talent.”
“Huh hmm.”
Vaishada struggled to control her expression.
Still, I didn’t feel bad when he said that.
“Did you wait a long time!”
Nilia ran out from inside the front door. Being from the same Shadow Patrol, they could recognize each other at a glance. Vaishada shook his head.
“I didn’t wait that long. Are you Nilia?”
“yes. you’re right.”
“ruler. take this first This is the present that Pullam asked me to bring to you. This is a gift that Banda asked you to bring. Was this… I.R.?”
“Thank you.”
Nylia was deeply moved by the gifts from her hometown from fellow Shadow Rangers.
“this person is?”
“He’s from the Wasteland Star Catcher.”
“yes???”
Nilia looked at me and said, ‘Why do you hang out with someone like that?’ Vaishada hastily explained.
“He is a nice and wonderful person. We worked together this time.”
“ah. Yes…”
Nilia agreed, but with a slightly questionable look in her eyes. Vaishada decided to divert the subject.
“But how are you staying here?”
“A friend asked me to stay with him.”
“From the Meikin family?!”
“yes.”
‘oh my god!’
Vaishada was startled.
I never thought there would be a hunter with such talent from the Shadow Rangers.
Basically, I thought the Shadow Rangers were only people with poor social skills and who couldn’t adapt to Imperial society!
“Amazing… amazing!”
‘Are times changing?’
Vaishada hoped that one day, when the age of young hunters would come, the Shadow Rangers might become as famous as the Star Catchers of the Wasteland.
To put it bluntly, what could be worse than a star catcher in the wasteland!
“Anyway, did you get all the presents here? did you check? Then we should go.”
“Oh, please wait a moment. Are you leaving right away…?”
“We don’t fit in the city.”
At Vaishada’s words, Esse also nodded.
This city, which is not open in all directions, people appear when you turn your head, and spires piercing the sky, is a bit too much for hunters.
Every time someone pops out from the side, the hand goes straight to the bow.
“But whatever…”
“Thank you for being considerate. But it’s really okay. There is nothing I really want to do here.”
“oh. wait a minute. If you’re lucky, there’s a place where you can get useful artifacts.”
Nilia recalled the event of the Freesinga Church that Lee Han had told her about.
I was going to go today, but after seeing the two hunters, I thought it went well.
Even for hunters who had little interest in the city, the story was different if they could get useful artifacts.
In fact, the two immediately showed interest.
“really? Is there such a place?”
“That Freesinga Church…”
“Aha. Are you releasing the cursed artifact and giving it to me?”
“That sounds like a good idea.”
“By the way, basically those artifacts are the things of the priests of the church there, are you okay? If you don’t know anyone…”
“I know someone!”
Nilia cried out while praying that Lee Han was still there.
* * *
“You can turn this off now.”
“No…”
Lee Han was speechless at the sight of Professor Verdus, who had shown it to him before and asked him to try it.
If it hadn’t been for the person waiting in front of me, I might have grabbed him by the collar.
‘Let’s wait. It can’t be published in Granden City’s newspaper as < Professor Ein Rogard and His Disciples'.' As Professor Verdus did earlier, Lee Han approached, carefully erasing the line from the outside of the curse magic circle. As I slowly released the magic circle without touching the stagnant magic, I felt the power of the curse gradually fade. "I did." "thank you!!" "good job. now do this I'm going to eat something." “......” While I was contemplating whether I should really grab him by the collar, a familiar face visited me. “Nylia! no. Mr. Vaishada?” “Wardanaz!?” Vaishada was also surprised to see Lee Han. Wasn't that the student who showed monstrous activity among the students of the White Tiger Tower the other day (I'm not sure why). “What are you doing here?” “I was helping with the work of the Freesinga Church.” "ah. Knowing each other..." Vaishada looked at Yihan, then at Nilia, then at Yihan again, and was shocked. 'No, what kind of skills does this guy have to help the nobles???' Even the fastest Shadow Ranger, the farthest-shooting Shadow Ranger, and the most prey-hunting Shadow Ranger seemed insignificant compared to the young ranger here. I couldn't even imagine how he could get along with nobles like this. is it magic “How did you become friends?” Vaishada whispered to Nylia. Nilia replied in bewilderment. “Is that just?” "just...!" Vaishada shuddered at the answer, which felt so profound. I once asked an excellent archer, 'How do I shoot the bow so well'. Come to think of it, the archer also answered 'just'. 'You're really not an ordinary socialite. amazing. amazing.' Vaishada looked at Nylia with a look of respect. The Esse also looked at Nelia with interest. “How can you be so friendly with nobles? Great.” "You shouldn't say something like that from a star catcher in the wasteland." “There seems to be a misunderstanding. We don't really get along well with nobles. Nobles are always difficult to deal with.” Wasteland Star Catchers are widely known in the Empire, but they were hunters after all. Of course, he couldn't be used to hanging out with nobles. At those words, Vaishada suddenly felt familiar. “But that social art is interesting... I'd like some advice if you don't mind. So that I can deal well with you in the future.” “Oh no.” Nilia was taken aback. Why did the topic suddenly flow to 'Learn Nilia's excellent social skills'? And there was nothing like that. “There is nothing like that. Just with all my heart..." "Ohh...!" "Oh oh!" While the three of them were talking, Lee Han, who succeeded in unlocking another artifact, raised his head. 'Was Nilia a sociable personality?' Lee Han was puzzled, but said nothing for the sake of his friend's honor. "really. Nilia. Did you come to pick up useful artifacts?” It was a thoughtless remark, but Nilia pricked up her ears and thanked her. I was so grateful that I could see tears in my eyes. Lee Han was rather embarrassed. 'Was the artifact so necessary?' You don't want to use it for business, why? “Can I get something that the hunters here can use?” "aha. So... it's not difficult. wait a minute Let's go find it." Lee Han stood up from his seat. Then they headed to the place where Priest Tigiling and Mehrid were. “A useful artifact?” Originally, he would not have leaked it to the outside world, but Priest Mehrid was not a tight-fisted person enough to say no to a devoted student like Lee Han. And the church considered the cursed artifacts important, but the cursed artifacts were not very important. “I think you can pick a few of these and take them with you.” "thank you!" Two hunters from behind said, 'What about those connections?' It was nerve-wracking to have a conversation like 'Isn't he a genius of speech art?', but Nilia tried to concentrate. “Nilia. How about this?" Lee Han lifted the leather water bottle. I turned it upside down, emptied the water inside, set it up again, and waited until the water rose little by little. It wasn't terribly fast, but it wasn't to the point where it couldn't be used in practice. Besides, these water bottles were quite useful for hunters. There were often times when it was difficult to find water while riding in the mountains. Nilia asked in amazement. "It's okay? What kind of cursed water bottle is it?" “I made it.” “......” While others were contemplating whether or not to hand over a book of magic, Nelia reflected on herself when she saw her friend who was catching a mage from another school, catching a basilisk, catching a ghoul king, catching an undead chimera, and even making artifacts. 'I'll have to work harder from tomorrow...'
