Chapter 424
– What are you doing?
Phil wrote desperately and sent it.
However, the junior who was concentrating did not notice the handwriting.
“Hmm.”
Phil was horrified as he continued to use his precognitive magic to correct his direction.
‘Isn’t that guy fearless?’
If you use the Foresight Magic incorrectly, you could vomit blood and collapse, but such a bold action.
“It is done.”
Professor Alkasis approached.
Then, seeing what Lee Han had extracted, he nodded.
“good job. Rest for a while.”
“thank you.”
“I. professor.”
Phil impatiently raised his hand. Professor Alkasis looked at the student with eyes that would not be left unattended if he said unnecessary things.
“Of course, I just have to succeed regardless of the means and methods, but I’m a little worried about my juniors.”
“…Do your job well. The slime is still there.”
Professor Arkassis looked at Phil very pitifully.
In some schools where useful talents were rare, when juniors joined, the seniors would be in a state of panic.
It was not a good situation for juniors and seniors. Basically, you have to do magic yourself to improve your skills.
“My slime is ready to go! More than that, the junior is healing in a way that is too dangerous!”
Surprisingly, Phil did not back down.
Seeing this, the other students murmured and sent worried eyes.
‘Aren’t you pulling out a knife?’
“I would have told you… if it was really dangerous, it would have failed on its own. Why do you keep
wasting time on a well-successful junior…”
“…Foresight magic?”
“yes!”
Professor Arkasis frowned and looked at Lee Han.
Then he asked.
“Did you extract it with foreknowledge magic?”
“Uh… I used it for auxiliary purposes.”
“why?”
“…Because I can’t think of another way?”
“……”
Professor Arkasis fell into a deep silence. Then, looking at the seniors, he asked.
“Didn’t I teach you < detection of disease > or < detection of vitality >?”
“yes.”
“You didn’t teach me.”
Seniors said in unison. The Dark Elf professor muttered as he tousled his hair.
“I forgot…”
“……”
“……”
Not only the seniors, but even Lee Han looked at the professor in bewilderment.
What if I forgot it?
“I made a mistake because it was magic that I learned in second grade. Let me know if something like this happens next time. Foresight magic is not a good magic to use repeatedly in this case.”
Lee Han glared at the professor. A new letter appeared on the side.
– You endure it. It’s a professor.

After the lecture, Han Lee vowed to avoid Professor Alcasis as much as possible until the next lecture.
Seeing the professor talking during the lecture (Phil, leave the time at night during the week. A patient is coming), I felt like Lee Han would be taken away if he was unlucky.
However, even with such a promise, Lee Han had to urgently call Professor Alkasis, who was passing by.
The basilisk started to get sick.
After the lecture, it was Lee Han who fed and took care of the basilisk eggs as usual in the cabin.
But suddenly, as if Al had eaten something wrong, he shuddered and began to roll around the cabin.
Embarrassed by the unexpected situation, Lee Han immediately jumped out to ask for help.
When he saw Professor Alkasis from afar, Lee Han called the professor without any time to think.
“professor! professor!”
“Don’t sing loudly…”
Professor Alcasis, who was suffering from headaches from insomnia and overwork, didn’t like it when his student called out loud.
“what’s the matter? Why did you call me?”
“Help me for a minute!”
“There is something I need to prepare now…”
Professor Arkasis pulled out his pocket watch and checked the time, then raised his eyebrows.
“I know you’ll pay back with your body if it’s not a big deal. What happened?”
“The basilisk is sick!”
“…It doesn’t matter.”
Professor Alkasis changed his appraisal.
This boy from the Wardanaz family was truly a man of no idle talk.
“Why the hell is a basilisk…”
“It’s a long story.”
“Then don’t do it.”
“thank you.”
Lee Han was grateful for Professor Alkasis’ consideration. Professor Arkasis was taken aback by Lee Han’s gratitude, but he passed it on because he was annoyed.
“really. You have to go in this way.”
“……”
Seeing that the illusion magic was installed to avoid the approach of strangers, Professor Arkasis wondered who the hell ordered this.
Are you the principal?
“The road is narrow.”
“Professor Verdus made it according to his standards…”
Lee Han brushed off the leaves that were stuck to his hair and clothes. Professor Alcasis brushed off the same.
The Dark Elves were basically a race with a skinny physique, and Professor Arkasis, a woman, was on the thinner side, but even taking that into account, he was inevitably taller than Professor Verdus.
Lee Han looked at the professor. I asked because I was in a hurry, but there was nothing good because the professor was covered in dust.
If the professor is covered with dirt, the student is more likely to go under the dirt.
“Go quickly, quickly. If I can’t make the medicine because of you, will you take responsibility?”
“I am going now!”
Lee Han hurriedly opened the cabin door.
Professor Alcassis looked surprised when he saw the basilisk eggs rolling around. I heard about it, but I was really surprised to see it.
“You’ve been really raising them… You’ve raised them really well too.”
“A number of professors helped. Professor Lee Han-eun and
Professor Verdus were inadvertently left out. Professor Alkasis didn’t bother asking again.
“If Professor Lightning Step helped me, I could have asked Professor Lightning Step?”
“……”
Lee Han felt sorry for himself.
Come to think of it, that was a safer way.
The basilisk was so suddenly in pain that he called Professor Alkasis, the first one he saw, but Professor Alkasis was by no means a kind professor.
‘I should have stayed calm in any situation.’
Lee Han learned another lesson.
“I thought it would be most accurate to ask the professor about disease-related issues.”
“Thank you for thinking that way.”
Professor Alkasis unexpectedly accepted the student’s praise kindly.
Wasting time needlessly, making mistakes when using healing magic, and saving patients, except for things that weren’t helpful, Professor Alcassis might have been a surprisingly kind and easy-going person.
‘hmm. After all, it’s really meaningless.’
Lee Han shook his head inwardly.
If you look at it like that, there was no professor who wasn’t good. Professor Boladi was also a kind professor, except for the beating.
“It’s growth fever. It looks like the basilisk is growing too fast and the fever
is soaring…”
“No… Originally, a basilisk is a monster without growth fever.”
Professor Alkasis said as if he was curious.
Even if he wasn’t knowledgeable enough to know all of the empire’s rare animals, Professor Alcassis knew quite well about useful monsters like the Basilisk.
Growing fever was not a common symptom because he grew very slowly and needed a lot of mana and food.
Among the monsters, most of those who suffer from diseases like growth fever are those who grow up rapidly…
“Oh. Is it because you feed them too much?”
Lee Han pondered whether he should steal some of the food and send it to the black market.
The basilisk egg next to it swayed from side to side and made a sound, but Lee Han ignored it.
“If you can make growth fever with food, the ranchers of the empire will shed tears of joy. There must be other factors besides food. Look for it.”
As Lee Han looked around the cabin, he asked various suspicious factors.
Perhaps it was a ventilation issue, a problem with the magic flow in the cabin, or was the basilisk stressed out by Professor Verdus…
Professor Arkasis, who had been listening quietly, stared at the basilisk egg.
It was unusual for him to roll around and cling to Lee Han even though he was inside the egg.
It is said that monsters have an imprinting phenomenon in which they regard the first person they see as their owner after emerging from the egg, but it is not uncommon for a monster to chase after its owner like that even before it emerges from the egg.
Maybe it’s because he takes good care of me, but more than that…
“You’re the cause.”
“yes?”
“That basilisk keeps sucking your mana, isn’t it? Even now… wait. Didn’t you notice? really?”
Every time the basilisk egg clung to Lee Han, he felt that he was receiving magic and drinking it, but he himself didn’t notice it.
Does it make sense?
“Did you do that?!”
Lee Han pushed the egg away with an expression full of betrayal. Al rattled and tried to cling to Lee Han, but Lee Han held on firmly.
“Didn’t you feel your mana draining?”
“yes.”
Professor Alkasis’s eyebrows twitched at the student’s immediate response without worrying for even a second.
“…okay.”
I didn’t hear it, what can I do?
It was absurd, but Professor Alkasis accepted.
“I’ll make an antipyretic potion for the basilisk to eat, so give it one drop a day. I think it would be better not to allow other people access until it heals. Basilisk is a more sensitive monster than I thought. And stop pampering me.”
“They didn’t accept it…”
Lee Han felt unfair, but the professor didn’t listen.
Professor Alkasis, who finished the preparation quickly, looked at Lee Han. It was the look in the eyes of a vicious trader visiting a slave market, estimating how much work this guy can do.
Lee Han quickly exclaimed.
“I am always grateful for the kindness of Professor. It’s just that I have assignments to do, and again this week…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t.”
Professor Arkasis stood up from his seat and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.
“There is a shortage of workers. It’s true. But… the disciples have a point. No matter how urgent it is, if you keep pushing the first year into practice, there will be an accident…”
Professor Arkasis, who was talking, watched as the basilisk egg clung to Lee Han again and sucked his mana.
The professor decided to pretend he didn’t see it. Seeing that, I felt like my resolve would be shaken.
“…because it can happen. Just following the lecture now is enough. After 12 years like this, you will become a good healing mage.”
The dark elf professor, even in the middle of being tired, showed a little bit of anticipation for his student in his eyes.
Originally, he should have been moved by the sincerity of a professor who usually doesn’t show his emotions, but Lee Han didn’t.
Lee Han was not a person who was easily passed over like other healing magic seniors.
‘It’s touching, but if you look closely, it’s just that we’re dying together.’
Of course, Lee Han did not reveal his inner thoughts. He nodded and expressed his deep gratitude.
“Thank you for your understanding. I will study healing magic diligently and try to do my part as quickly as possible.”
“So be it.”
Professor Alkasis smiled and tried to open the door.
At that time, Professor Verdus, who arrived outside with a sound, called Lee Han.
“Are you inside?! I need magic power to make an artifact right now! Come out quickly! hurry! quickly!”
“……”
Professor Alkasis looked at Moon and Lee Han alternately with confused eyes.
…Are other professors just letting them do it?
