Chapter 046
– Puh Hung Phu Hung.
“You want to rest?”
Lee Han stopped when the white horse made a tired noise.
I was glad that the guy who had been so ferociously attacking me earlier requested communication like this.
You’re getting close!
“okay. drink water here I’ll give you sugar too.”
-Puhhhh…
The white horse didn’t want to admit it, but it felt more and more subdued by this boy.
-Puh-heung!
The white horse suddenly opened its eyes wide.
The ancient wild blood running through his veins awakened his pride.
I can’t give in like this!
Seeing this, Lee Han murmured earnestly.
“How do I increase the amount of mana absorbed?”
-…Puh-heung.
The white horse again laid down its eyes and bowed its head.
* * *
I got up early in the morning and took care of the horse, but the school didn’t wait.
Whether I was sleepy or hungry, I had to get up and go to my next class.
Lee Han handed canned beef and pickled cucumbers to his friends who were about to return to the Black Turtle Tower after finishing their chores. Having received the canned food, Nilia
looked in her pockets with a puzzled expression instead of
being genuinely happy .
“??”
“I don’t have any money…”
“…I’m just giving.”
Lee Han very slightly reflected on his actions.
Was it too hard?
“Can I? really? really?”
“Think calmly about whether this is a situation worth asking again.”
Nilia pricked up her long ears and took the canned food.
But Ratford adamantly refused.
“Cannot receive.”
“……”
Nilia quietly noticed.
‘I… Do I have to give it back too?’
“It is an order.”
“Then I understand.”
Ratford took it. Nilia was relieved.
‘thank god!’
After the two of them left, Lee Han looked at Yoner and asked.
“I don’t think you would react like that. Yoner. Am I being too harsh?”
“no? why?”
“Right. thank god.”
At first glance, Lee Han thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be more objective if I asked someone other than Yoner?’, but decided to just move on.
“Let’s have breakfast. Yoner. The early risers will be out in the common room, so I’ll give them some. Could you help me write it down in the ledger?”
“of course.”
The two were happy with the thought of treating their friends to a hearty breakfast.
…of course it wasn’t free, but it was a pleasure to be happy.
* * *
Lee Han spread mustard on the sliced bread and put it on a plate.
The fireplace in the freshman common room has always been a good friend to the students. Lee Han added a cracked egg next to the bacon that was sizzling on the frying pan.
The fried eggs were cooked in an instant with a sizzling sound.
‘What on earth did bloodline do to such an extent?’
Right now, Lee Han wasn’t preparing his own meal. It wasn’t even preparing meals for friends in the break room.
This was a meal for the princess in her private room.
– Wardanaz. Since we’re paying silver, can we deliver a meal to the princess like last time?
-Please. Wodanaz!
No matter how much he thought about it, Lee Han couldn’t understand.
Originally, power was entrusted to the majority of the populace, not from an unknown ancient mystical bloodline.
Why the hell did the royal family take care of it so much?
‘Kainando is surviving on its own, steadfastly.’
Even if no one took care of it, Gainando would get up on his own, come down to the break room, and eat a full breakfast.
It was a great adaptability.
Considering that, the students’ consideration might rather poison the princess.
Knock Tok-
“?”
The door opened and Adenart appeared as before.
Lee Han shrugged and held out his plate.
“I cooked downstairs.”
Lee Han felt as if Adenart’s expression brightened very slightly.
Or maybe it was because of the morning sunlight coming in from the side window.
Adenart took the plate carefully and raised his fork before hesitating.
Then he bowed his head, closed the door, and went inside.
‘The other day he ate outside and grew up.’
Lee Han thought as he came down.
Come to think of it, it seems that there are followers in other towers besides the blue dragon’s tower… If
I speak well to these followers, wouldn’t each of them get a separate silver coin?
‘oh my god. I thought, but it’s a really devilish way.’
Lee Han was thrilled by his own potential.
By the time I graduated from school, I might be able to open a small workshop with the money I saved.
* * *
“What? Why are you not out today?”
“Don’t be fooled. They may have hidden monsters in the classroom.”
The < Understanding of Basic Alchemy > class was held in Gaksu Hall (角宿館), one of the annexes, not outside the school’s main building.
Thanks to the greenhouses, it was warmer inside the building than outside.
But now, the freshmen were also somewhat aware.
It’s not good to do it inside!
“Everyone gather! Prepare for when the monsters appear!”
“Princess. come this way We will protect you.”
“……”
Lee Han was dumbfounded when he saw the other top students.
The princess is also a student at the Blue Dragon Tower!
“Don’t worry. Wodanaz. Because we won’t lose over there either.”
Asan Dalkad said with a confident smile.
The Lee Han group has now gathered quite a number.
Ihan Yoner Asan Nylia.
Looking at the quality of the members, they were never inferior to other groups.
“Everyone take your seats.”
Thunderwalker entered with a yawn. For some reason, his face looked tired.
“professor. Why aren’t you doing it outside today?”
“what? It’s an alchemy class, so let’s do it inside.”
The dwarf professor looked at the student who asked the question like an idiot.
The student was perplexed and asked again.
“But the other day, it was important to gather ingredients for alchemy, so you said you were doing it outside…” “
That was about gathering the ingredients. It’s this iron head. Are you planning to do it outside even when you make medicine? Like this inflexible guy.”
After speaking, Thunderwalker took a quick look around.
“Perhaps everyone was thinking the same thing? But don’t worry. Unlike the alchemy class held outside, the alchemy class held inside is very safe and comfortable.”
‘That’s a lie.’
‘It is a lie.’
‘If I believed that, I’d be 100% stupid.’
The students were not fooled. Thunderstruck also grinned as if he had noticed the look in his eyes.
“ruler! Pour water into the pot in front of everyone. Alchemy is a comprehensive art. From gathering ingredients to putting out the fire, there are no unimportant actions. But the process of making this magic potion is even more important. A guy who wastes all the ingredients he’s gathered will never become an outstanding alchemist! open the book! And make a < lower magic recovery potion >!”
Paralarak-
Only the sound of opening a book could be heard quietly from everywhere.
‘This must be difficult.’
At first glance, alchemy seemed much easier than other magic.
Isn’t it just a matter of putting the ingredients in a set order without having to learn complicated and difficult magic?
However, once he actually tried it, Lee Han immediately knew why alchemy was so difficult.
Alchemy was like making a very difficult dish in a short period of time non-stop.
-Cut off the bottom of Galamadu and cut the remaining part into two little finger size pieces. At the same time, you have to tear the seolhyangcho with your hands, but at this time, you have to tear it quickly before the galamadu dries. Blanch the cut Galamadu in boiling water for 3 minutes and the seolhyangcho for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. In the meantime, prepare the powder of ground red magic stones and add it exactly when the boiling water turns green. When the water turns orange , stir it three times clockwise and three times counterclockwise from north to south five times…
I had to remember in my head how and when to put it in (I didn’t have time to look at the book when I was actually working on it), and I had to complete all the excessively detailed movements without missing a single one.
It would be strange if there were no rats in the brain.
pop! Puffup!
Unsurprisingly, there were popping sounds and various smoke began to rise from here and there. Seeing this, the thunder walk laughed pleasantly.
As an alchemist, there was nothing nicer to see than the sight of the far-flung novices choking on acrid smoke.
If you don’t enjoy it at this time, when will you enjoy it!
“…?”
The thunderous step, which had been laughing cheerfully, looked to one side and hesitated.
It was because of seeing Lee Han’s pot.
‘No, why is he doing so well?’
Thunderstruck’s eyes widened.
Of course, even the thunderstruck knew that the boy from the Wardanaj family was a gifted boy.
Not just smart, but also tenacity to do various chores silently.
It was true that he had the talent of an alchemist.
…However, it was etiquette and custom for even a student with the talent of an alchemist to make a few trials and errors when learning alchemy for the first time.
If not, wouldn’t the senior alchemist feel ashamed and bored!
However, like an alchemist who worked in an alchemy workshop for over ten years, Lee Han moved without stopping.
Like a machine, he quickly cut herbs to the correct size and threw them into the pot, turned several hourglasses in turn, picked up a glass bottle, and poured the liquid into the pot. All these movements continued like a dance without stopping.
I had no choice but to admit the thunderous step.
There really was such a thing as genius.
Otherwise, how could a student who had just started alchemy show such perfect movements?
‘I swear by the beard of my ancestor, no one will believe me even if I tell you what I’ve seen!’
Actually, this was not a genius talent.
It’s just a sad result of rolling and rolling under the professor for a long time!
The inside of Lee Han’s pot was dyed blue. It was a dark, deep blue. Looking at the color, Thunderwalker could tell that the medicine was perfectly made.
But after tasting it, Lee Han tilted his head and threw the medicine away.
“???”
I didn’t understand the thunderous step.
why are you throwing it away?
Lee Han started making again.
The movements were equally perfect, as if to show that what I showed you earlier was not a coincidence.
And the potion with the same perfect blue color was completed.
Lee Han tasted it again, then tilted his head again and threw the medicine away.
“……”
The thunderous step could not be tolerated any longer.
Originally, it was a thunderous step that students let go until they overcome it on their own, no matter what question they ask, but even if they were curious about that, they were too curious.
The thunderous step slowly approached Lee Han. Then he asked.
“Why do you keep throwing away your medicine?”
“I couldn’t recover my mana.”
“what?”
The thunder steps were startling.
Then I read the book again. I wondered if I wrote the recipe incorrectly, but there was nothing wrong with the recipe.
“????”
I made it right and I definitely drank it, but why can’t I recover?
“Make it again.”
“yes.”
Lee Han made it again.
Thunderstruck, who had been waiting with an anxious expression, immediately lifted the ladle and drank the potion.
As soon as the blue liquid passed down his throat, it immediately turned into magical power and began to fill his entire body.
Even if Thunderstep made it, it couldn’t have been made more perfect than this.
“Are you okay?”
“is it so?”
Lee Han drank as if wondering. Then, as before, he tilted his head and said.
“What’s the matter?”
“……”
Thunderstep was astonished.
Could it be that he could present a manufacturing method that was superior to the one that Thunderstep confidently put forward? The genius of this Wardanaz family?
‘No way! My pride…!’
“ah. It’s because you’re full of magic power.”
“……”
