Chapter 420
-It’s really strange. I don’t know what happened.
When the Death Knight next to him muttered in a curious voice, the skeleton headmaster said with a sound of hitting bones instead of clicking his tongue.
You’re still far away. I noticed right away.
-Is that so?
Death Knight was amazed.
To find out the secret hidden in this mysterious scene now.
As expected, I thought that my master deserved to be called the greatest sage of the empire.
The name of Gonadaltes was so famous that even the printing guild that produced the empire’s most popular magazine, Beast Detective Toberiz, sought advice every time.
The culprit must be Wardanaz.
-…?
Death Knight looked at the owner with a puzzled gaze.
Of course, I knew that the owner of the Death Knight would harass the disciple he loved the more, but isn’t this completely unreasonable?
It would be hard to handle the back if the disciple was twisted after being bullied like that…
I’m not forcing it. You empty-headed bastard
-All right. I believe in my master.
Real believers don’t even say that. ruler. Think about it. You must have guessed that the first graders came and went here.
-That’s…
The Death Knight nodded.
The knights and wizards didn’t admit it, but looking at the atmosphere, it was clear that the first year students had come and gone.
But among the first year students, the wizards and the knights are all close friends only to Wodanaz.
-But it’s the White Tiger Tower students who escaped, how… and no matter how friendly they are, is that possible…?
there must be something inside remember it well. Once you have ruled out all the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how strange it may seem, is the truth.
The Headmaster Skeleton said in a dizzying voice. Death Knight lowered his head with admiring eyes.
I knew they were close, but I didn’t know they could mediate between the two. Jujutsu is also really good.
-yes. It’s still amazing. Two bastards …
huh.
-sorry. rude expression.
no. You can lower your voice and continue. Dogs aren’t right. If you don’t listen with words, is that a human being?
Headmaster Skeleton was genuinely amazed.
There were many geniuses in the vast land of the Empire.
Of course, Lee Han is a little more special among those geniuses, but anyway…
Among Lee Han’s seniors, weren’t there a lot of people who showed amazing talent in their major school?
However, such geniuses are usually only interested in their own studies, feeding their friends, helping professors with their work, and not intervening with outsiders when they have time.
But Lee Han was able to do that.
Looking at it now, it was clear that the knights and wizards also intervened.
This isn’t easy even for a seasoned Imperial official… I
find it absurd to think about it. Basically, that’s what teachers are supposed to do. Does it make sense? How can you be less sociable than a disciple?
The Death Knight thought to himself, ‘Aren’t they the professors brought by the master?’, but remained silent.
Instead, it turned the topic around.
-You must be very happy to have a disciple with outstanding talent.
Not really. Now that I know it’s possible up to that level, I can try other things in the future. What should I order next…
-……
I wondered if Death Knight was too much for a first year student, but I stayed silent.
A loyal pet knows when to be silent.
really. I almost forgot. to take care of it.
– What do you mean? prize?
The Death Knight wanted to give a reward as much as the skeleton headmaster ordered his pupil to do extra work.
To be honest, intervening between the wizards and knights was more difficult than defeating the evil demon archduke.
Are you crazy? what reward? Does Einrogard look easy enough to give a reward to the guy who ran away?
-…yes. sorry.
It was said to find out how Wodanaz got out.
-I wonder if it came out with the White Tiger Tower guys?
I thought so too at first, but now that I think about it, Wodanaz isn’t that lax. You said the employee was released? probably came out separately. Let’s try to find one.
Headmaster Skeleton was unexpectedly thorough in the rules he had set.
Students were not imprisoned only with feelings or testimonies unless they were caught on the spot or left no physical evidence.
If you imprison me, I will definitely catch you and make sure you don’t refute!
-I’m a first-year student, wouldn’t it be difficult if it weren’t for this exceptional situation?
Yes, that carelessness is arrogant indeed! I told you not to underestimate your opponent. Keep in mind! Just erase the idea of being a freshman. Think of it as a worn-out 4th grader!
-…yes. I see…
* * *
Lee Han, who barely returned at dawn after a crazy weekend, slept for a while and woke up in the morning.
The priests didn’t show it, but they were agitated by the suddenly changed breakfast menu.
“What day is today…?”
“no. You have to eat this much for your original nutrition.”
Lee Han said to the priest who looked the skinniest by spreading plenty of jam on the outside of the bread and pushing it.
One of the priests suddenly remembered and asked.
“Did the Blue Dragon Tower students eat like this last semester?”
“In general, right?”
“ah…!”
The priests nodded as if they understood, saying ‘I see!’.
Somehow, in the first semester, the Blue Dragon Tower students weren’t so desperate for snacks, and even if the priests tried to share something to eat, they said, ‘Haha, it’s okay, priests, eat it’, but these days, the stare in their eyes was bothering me.
“Somehow…”
“But I wonder if those who used to eat like that won’t be hungry if they don’t eat, so if I could bring some…”
The priest put egg custard, pumpkin pie, egg rice, and roasted duck on a plate and tried to get up, but Lee Han immediately warned. did.
“Those who bring food to other towers are always eliminated in the order of lottery.”
“Oh no!”
“why…!?”
The priests who tried to bring it were taken aback.
I couldn’t be pushed out of the order as I was trying to awaken Lee Han’s next sacred magic with the sacred magic of his church.
“I don’t think you should eat this extravagantly…”
“I was told by the church that eating like this is not good…”
Lee Han ignored the priests’ complaints and fed them.
“Priest Tigiling. You put too little on your plate. Let me give you more.”
“He’s serving the third plate right now… no, too many…!”
Priest Tigilling hurriedly refused, but it didn’t work.
After looking around happily at the priests who ate their fill, Lee Han looked away.
‘Something is strange.’
Although he only attended one semester, Lee Han was very sensitive to Ain Lorgard.
Thanks to that, I could feel the atmosphere changed.
There were a lot of Death Knights roaming around the towers and walls, and Undead summons that I couldn’t even see in the sky were flying around…
The reason was overflowing.
‘Anyway, the White Tiger Tower guys aren’t helpful.’
Of course, Lee Han, who participated in the request during the short weekend to earn some money, was somewhat responsible, but it was the White Tiger Tower guys who caused a big uproar.
On such a topic, they would argue with Lee Han like ‘It’s nice to meet the Knights’ and they were useless anyway.
‘Did he get caught?’
Lee Han glared at the spire.
I asked the people in the seat to trust me, but there were too many people. Lee Han did not expect much that the secret would be kept.
Seeing that he wasn’t taken to the punishment room right away, it seemed that the skeleton headmaster didn’t catch the scene, so he luckily passed on
…
If you believe that I went out with the White Tiger Tower students, it would be fortunate, but I didn’t think it was that lax. For a while, it seemed better to be careful.
‘I have to go out three or four times a semester to have enough supplies…’
Despite the search, Lee Han’s soul was very peaceful.
I brought in a lot of supplies and had the right to go out, so the situation was much better than I was prepared for.
There won’t be another magician’s festival like last week, so if you work hard on the assignments that come out this week…
Kwadang Tang Tang Tang Tang!
Lee Han, who entered Professor Voladi’s classroom, rolled over.
The contents of the lecture changed while I was not watching.
“…Are you attacking as soon as you enter?”
“Can not help it.”
Lee Han was not really curious about the reason, but asked patiently.
“Why?”
“Because the only way to block the space-travel magic at your level is through repeated training.”
“yes? Why the sudden space-shifting magic…? I have to practice lightning magic form change, and there are a lot of things to do…”
Lee Han was confused, not knowing where the diverse and relatively safe curriculum, such as taking care of basilisk eggs and changing lightning magic form, went and why it suddenly changed to countermeasures for space movement magic.
Then Professor Voladi showed me a note.
Wodanaz, who was defeated by Voladi Baegrek, is frustrated because he was defeated by a golem that uses space travel magic.
for you to help
Osu Gonadaltes
“……” Lee
Han’s impression distorted.
‘Are you saying you went out? really?’
Of course, it was a note sent before going out, but Lee Han did not know that.
Just lock yourself in the punishment room!
“…So, countermeasures against space movement magic now?”
“okay. We’ll meet someday, so it’s better to prepare in advance.”
Professor Voladi said in a serious voice.
Headmaster Skeleton’s point was valid.
Wouldn’t his life be in danger if he met a battle mage who had only specialized in space movement magic for the rest of his life while wandering around the most remote and gloomy places in the empire?
“……”
Lee Han had to hold back the words, ‘Why do you teach me how to deal with dragons?’
If Professor Voladi said something like that, he might say, ‘Okay, I get it,’ and start preparing for the Dragon Slayer from that day.
All Lee Han could do was be very slightly sarcastic.
“I’m really happy to learn how to deal with a combat mage specializing in space magic that I’ll probably meet once or twice in my life…”
“is it?”
Professor Boladi was satisfied when Lee Han was happy.
As a teacher, it was a proud thing to give the disciples what they wanted.
“From now on, speak directly.”
Professor Boladi thought that as a disciple, Han Lee could not directly express his respect for his teacher.
“…I’ll tell you myself, so please don’t listen to the other professors. Originally, misunderstandings arise whenever words are passed on to one or two people.”
“Maybe.”
Professor Voladi nodded knowingly. Lee Han sighed.
“Space movement magic is one of the most difficult magics to counter when used aggressively. Because there are no signs.”
Space-time magic belonged to the most difficult and difficult magic among the schools of magic.
As such, there were few wizards who knew how to use space movement magic, and few wizards who could cast it quickly and accurately enough to be used in battle.
Besides, what about the consumption of mana? If he wanted to kill his opponent, it would take a single arrow, but he didn’t have to use such complicated magic.
“professor. As you said, do we really need to prepare for that?”
“But we still met. What happened once can happen twice.”
“……”
The time when I was refuted by Professor Voladi’s words was the time when I felt the most ashamed of myself.
Do you have to give in to that logic?
“There are few ways to respond, but not none.”
As the Headmaster Skeleton had said, there were no gaps in the space movement magic, but there were gaps for the person who used it.
If you can predict the opponent’s pattern in advance, you can evade any magic no matter how powerful it is.
“It’s just foreknowledge magic.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised at how well he did it.
Certainly, the Foresight Magic was appropriate for the current situation.
“Oh. Then you don’t need to learn while being hit with your body?”
“no. You have to be hit a lot to use the Foresight Magic.”
Lee Han instinctively threw his body to the side without even realizing it. As expected, a chair appeared in the place where Lee Han had been and flew into it.
Before I could feel relieved, a desk appeared behind me and passed by. Lee Han rolled around on the classroom floor.
“The first dodge was great. You have talent.”
“It’s not a prediction magic, it’s just luck…”
Lee Han didn’t even have time to answer. The attack started again.
