Chapter 408
I don’t think there’s much to decorate in the current situation…
Lee Han, who was worried, clicked his tongue.
‘Even if I think about it, it’s a question that has no answer.’
“i get it. Everyone worked hard… what did you eat?”
“Ke cake…”
“I told you to leave some wodhanaz.”
Seeing the students of the White Tiger Tower whispering, Lee Han waved his hand as if he was okay.
“done. I’m hungry, maybe I can eat some first.”
“Wardanaz…!”
“Then let’s do some more work on the other side while we’re full. The priests have been on duty this week, but it must be difficult.”
“……”
The White Tiger Tower students pouted and followed Lee Han.
someone muttered.
“There is no such thing as a cake without a price.”
“Even if you copy it, you won’t end up like Wardanaj.”
“I just did it. just.”
* * *
“Ratford. Can you help me?”
“of course.”
Ratford, who was unlocking a box his friend had brought to him on the black market, stood up without hesitation.
The Black Tower student recognized Lee Han’s face and waved his hand. Lee Han also greeted lightly as if thanking him.
‘…If anyone sees it, they’ll think I’m a student at the Black Turtle Tower!’
Salcho, who was watching from a distance, was stunned.
Usually, when other top students come, they ask, ‘Why are you here?’ ‘What are you looking around for?’ ‘Are you a thief? It was the students of the Black Turtle Top who were ticking, “If you’re going to buy, if you’re not going to buy, why are you standing there?”
But when I come to Wodanaz, they treat me like I see a close friend like that.
Salcho was in no position to say anything to anyone…
“But what can I help you with? Do you have anything to steal?”
“You can’t ask for something like that so easily.”
“You can easily ask…”
“Today’s just checking.”
Lee Han’s words made Ratford curious.
it’s confirmation
what do you want to check?
“Check out the animals that Prof. Lightning has prepared for use in his lecture. No matter how much I think about it, I am anxious.”
After the second semester, Lee Han became a little more mature.
It started with a pre-learning session.
‘No matter how much I think about it, I think I’ll break one of my limbs if I just keep trusting the professor. Check first.’
Lee Han already realized the truth that other seniors realize only in the second and third grade.
“I see… It’s Mr. Wodanaz.”
Ratford was amazed.
Is that why you’re the top of your grade?
“Professor Lightningwalker must have mixed barriers and devices due to her personality, so let me take care of the barriers and you will take care of the devices.”
“Actually, Wardanaz-nim is at a level where you can call yourself a decent thief, but…”
Lee-han felt embarrassed after a long time at Ratford’s praise.
“Aren’t I still at that level?”
“no. Honestly, that’s enough. You can be proud of it as it is the result of painstaking practice.”
“Whoops. is it.”
Lee Han was delighted.
Following Ratford’s instructions, diligently picking and unlocking the lock was rewarding.
The vacant lot a little away from the main building used for this festival was a field with two forests on its side.
On one side was the summoning magic test site where the first year students worked hard over the weekend, and on the other side was the winding raceway where Professor Lightning Walk’s lectures would be held.
“Looking at the racetrack, it might be a riding course.”
Even in the first semester, Professor Lightning Walk emphasized the importance of taming and riding animals.
If you were taming a new monster and riding it, it was likely to be relatively safe.
“Or maybe it’s a lecture about running away from monsters.”
“……”
It was sad that Ratford’s words could not be denied. Certainly, the winding raceway looks good for escaping from monsters chasing from behind.
“Ratford. Please check your surroundings.”
“yes. No one. This is so… I can’t believe there is no expense like this. You seem a bit complacent.”
“Originally, all professors are like that. Because he made the students do it, he lacks a sense of crisis.”
Lee Han approached us while swearing at the professor amicably.
‘I don’t think I’ll need < The Curtain of Paragranum >.’
I was very nervous because I didn’t know what would happen, but I was able to approach it easier than I thought. Lee Han cautiously approached.
■■■■■…
Slightly-
I tried to remove the covering cloth, but as expected, it stuck to me and didn’t come off. Lee Han immediately swung his mana like a hammer. The fabric fell off with a silent roar.
And what awaited was an amazing sight.
“…?!”
There was nothing in us. Ratford was taken aback, but Lee Han immediately noticed.
“A monster with the ability to become invisible.”
“Invisibility?”
“It’s Kuene.”
“!”
Ratford was taken aback by the voice behind him.
Our insides were empty, so we were distracted for a moment. It was a mistake that hurt his pride as a thief.
“Keugh… Such a mistake…”
“Shh. Ratford. It’s okay, so take care of your face. I haven’t heard yet.”
The naive wizard, not knowing what the two students were up to, held out his permit and said,
“Here is the permit given by Lord Gonadaltes. Visited for the Summoning Magic Festival. The students must be busy taking care of Kuinee, but I am sorry for disturbing you.”
“no. Welcome to Ein Lorgard.”
The wizard grinned at Lee Han’s polite hospitality. Just by looking at his accent and movements, he could tell that the other person was from a noble family.
“It’s a really nice place. I never thought the magical power of nature would be so strong… The magicians learning here must be dreaming every day.”
“…yes. what.”
“Dreams are a bit different depending on which dream it is…”
“Yes?”
“it’s nothing.”
The two quickly changed their conversation, not wanting to break the illusion of an outsider.
“But what is that?”
“ah. Are you talking about kune? He is a gentle and cute boy.”
in kune.
It was a monster reminiscent of a small elephant with the ability to become invisible.
“Do you eat people?”
“yes? no. Is it gentle and cute?”
“ah. sorry. Even though they are docile and cute, they can prey on people.”
“ha ha ha. It was a funny joke.”
The two students exchanged meaningful glances, but the wizard didn’t notice.
“When I was young, Master brought this guy to me. I keep missing invisible monsters, so you wanted to tell me how to find them. I was so frightened at the time.”
“…I heard you were gentle and cute?”
“On the contrary, I like to joke. How terrifying it was when he chased noisily from behind! Ha ha ha ha ha!”
“……”
“…do you train to ride a cuine?”
“Quinneh? It wouldn’t be that kind of personality. I’ve never heard of anyone liking to burn.”
Among Lee Han and Ratford’s guesses, when Ratford’s guess turned out to be correct, their faces blurred.
Do you really have to stage a getaway against an invisible invisible beast?
“The place is well prepared. It’s also Einrogard. During the festival three years ago, the uncooperative attitude of the local families made me suffer because of poor preparation… Do you see that big pit over there? That will now be the gathering place for the wizards who will summon creatures.”
Ratford asked casually.
“Why do you need such a big pit?”
“Sometimes there are wizards who summon strange things… If you summon them in a pit like that, it’s easy to bury them.”
Ratford was embarrassed and whispered to Yihan.
“Are you kidding?”
“no. That is serious.”
Hearing about the terrible festival in advance would only make him feel depressed, so Lee Han changed the subject to Quinee.
Right now, the invisible giant beast that would trample on him was more dangerous.
“Do you have any tips for dealing with Kuene?”
“I like magic that leaves traces. It’s good to prepare a potion with a strong color in advance.”
Lee Han shook his head as the wizard showed him the standard method.
Of course, Lee Han knew that much.
“Something like a way to get him to run away.”
“…Uh… that’s true… Kuine is a docile beast, so why do you ask how that is?”
The wizard asked slightly warily.
Lee Han, noticing this, replied softly.
“I have to keep taking care of him, but I’m afraid I might make a mistake.”
“aha. I’m worried about nothing…”
The wizard jumped right over and revealed the information. Fortunately, there was a potion that could repel Kuine’e.
Having heard enough, Lee Han nodded in gratitude.
“Thank you. I will take good care of this guy.”
“Wait a minute.”
“??”
The wizard called them both.
“Do you know a student named Wodhanaj? You’re a student specializing in controlling golems?”
“I do not know?”
“Is this your first time hearing it?”
“Is that so… is it because the school is so large? Thanks anyway.”
The wizard thanked him and walked away.
When the opponent disappeared, Lee Han asked Ratford with a shocked look.
“what? how? how?”
“Isn’t it because of the white tiger tower guys? If you run into problems, it’s mostly because of them, right?”
“No… not as much as this time. How could the White Tiger Towers spread rumors like that? what really? Are you the principal?”
Lee Han was confused not knowing that the correct answer had been given.
* * *
“…Wordanaz!”
“yes?”
Professor Lightning Walk called out to Lee Han when he saw all the students gathered holding a potion bottle filled with black ink.
“Are you the culprit?”
“I’m not sure what you mean.”
“Don’t be shy. I really want it… The first graders are getting smarter.”
The lightning stride professor looked around at the students as if they were dumbfounded. The students sneakily averted their gaze.
Not the worn-out 3rd graders, but the 1st graders figuring out the contents of the lecture in advance.
‘It’s different because there is one lion among the sheep.’
“Don’t give me compliments. Yongke noticed it too. Being prepared in advance is a skill.”
The students let out a sigh of relief, but Lee Han maintained an expression that he did not know anything until the end.
“But today’s lecture won’t be easy just because I prepared in advance. The name of this monster is called Kuinee…”
Professor Lightning Walk explained the invisible monster in as much detail as possible.
One student carefully raised his hand.
“Any questions?”
“yes. professor. Do you really have to run against that invisible monster? You’re just trying to locate a guy standing still, right?”
“Did Wodanaz figure that out too? It’s really amazing.”
Professor Lightning Walk looked at Lee Han curiously.
It was possible to detect that Kuinee had been prepared, but it was not easy to find out in advance the contents of the river running away from Kuinee.
how?
“……”
“…Oh no… isn’t the goal of the lecture to find out the location of the invisible monster?”
“The purpose of the lecture is right. Originally, monsters don’t stand still, so of course I have to practice against a moving one. Quenee is pretty easy. From here to there, don’t go outside, just dodge inside the racetrack. Don’t worry too much, you’ll only have to hold out until this hourglass runs out.”
Lee Han was not surprised at all and took out the potion he had been making. It was already promising.
“Woah Wo Danaz. Can I buy the potion right now?”
“The price has gone up a bit now.”
“It doesn’t matter! I’m sorry for doubting you!”
‘…Wodhanaz, that guy shouldn’t be compared to a 3rd year.’
Professor Lightning Walk shook his head.
Seeing that, I was rather naive in the 3rd grade.
