Chapter 511
Nilia raised her hand and cut off Lee Han.
“why?”
“I haven’t been to the realm of those deep sea spirits, but it’s dangerous!”
“okay. It was dangerous.”
“Then why did you go in there?”
“Tricked me.”
“……”
Neelia said that her friend had been tricked, so she had nothing to say.
There’s nothing you can do if you’ve been tricked!
“So I fought a spirit that was attacking me…”
“You fought!?”
“Nilia. If you keep interrupting, you won’t be able to talk.”
“Oh no…”
Nilia was unfair.
No matter how you think about it, it wasn’t his fault.
“Anyway, we fought, but luckily a spirit who knew Upinum came and helped us. I asked that spirit to introduce me to a spirit I could make a contract with, and they accepted.”
“I see.”
Nilia, who was about to nod after hearing her friend’s words, tilted her head.
“Deep sea spirits are violent and dangerous, aren’t they?”
“That’s why I asked to make contracts with gentle and kind spirits from other realms.”
“Okay… wait. Can you contract a spirit from another realm?”
“Is it possible?”
“???”
Nilia felt that the common sense she had learned was shaken.
what?
No matter how strong a spirit is, you can’t command a spirit from another realm at will, can you?
“Do you want to see the spirit I made a contract with?”
“uh? huh. Show me.”
Nilia was embarrassed, but wanted to see the spirit that had contracted with Lee Han, so she accepted.
“I call you by the name of law and contract.”
With a relatively short and simple spell, the pattern glowed, and a flame spirit emerged from the spirit realm.
It was a flame spirit that looked like a small sparrow.
‘Is it normal?’
Nilia was a little taken aback.
Since it was summoned by Wodanaz, he was worried that something like a dragon might come out.
However, when I thought about it, it was normal to summon such a spirit originally.
Moreover, Wardanaz had expressed disapproval of the use of flame magic by limiting its power from before.
“Did you sign a contract with him because of fire magic?”
“huh. I thought the flame spirit would be the best.”
As for other magic, even if Yihan tried to use it, the fire magic consumed too much mental power.
In that case, it was better to leave it to the spirits.
Nylia lightly glared at the Fire Sparrow Spirit. It was more like a pretend to overwhelm the spirit rather than genuinely glaring at it.
“You have to listen carefully!”
Even the lower spirits were not easy to deal with.
Strong spirits behave as they are strong, and weak spirits behave as they please.
Especially in the case of fire spirits, I had to be more careful because they were quick-tempered and mischievous.
-……
The sparrow spirit did not move, and stood still on Lee Han’s shoulder in a angular posture.
Nilia thought that the spirit’s time had stopped for a moment.
“…Should I listen carefully?”
“Did you not hear Nilia?”
As soon as Lee Han spoke, the sparrow spirit flapped its wings and nodded.
“I guess you heard it.”
Flip flops!
“You only need to nod once.”
flop!
Lee Han patted the sparrow spirit as if he was admirable.
As much as the hard contract was made, it was more unique and cute for no reason.
I was worried because the other friends had a lot of trouble dealing with the spirits…
‘You’re lucky.’
It was clear that Lee Han had been lucky enough to meet a kind sparrow spirit.
“……”
Nilia had seen a figure similar to that sparrow spirit in the mountains.
Hunts besieged by the Shadow Rangers usually made that kind of expression.
‘…Aren’t you scared!?’
No matter how you think about it, it was a contract that was forced to comply with coercion and threats rather than a normal contract.
“what’s the matter? Nilia.”
“Oh nothing? I thought you two got along very well?”
At Nilia’s words, Lee Han nodded with a very proud face.
When her friend showed her that side of herself, Nilia became more and more difficult to tell the truth.
“Is the spirit really kind and sincere? Follow your words…! It’s rare to meet such a spirit! that’s right!”
“haha. thanks. Nilia. Actually, it’s not that big of a deal, but I was lucky.”
The basilisk wrapped around Lee Han’s wrist made a disgruntled clatter with its tail.
Everyone was paying too much attention to just one low-level spirit.
“Next time you enter the spirit realm, would you like to go to the realm of Upinum together?”
“…is it okay to go there? really?”
At that time, Professor Millay called Lee Han.
“Student Lee Han.”
“yes. professor.”
“Even if there is a passage to another realm when you enter the spirit realm, you must not enter that realm. Do you understand?”
Professor Millay called Lee Han over and explained how dangerous it was to deviate from the original path and how lucky he was this time.
Nilia averted her eyes at the rare sight of her classmate getting scolded.
* * *
Headmaster Skeleton was puzzled when Lee Han seemed happy.
what? Did you master the magic you learned last time?
“no. I made a contract with the spirits.”
oh. what spirit are you doing? Did you find an ancient spirit?
“You made a contract with a lower flame spirit?”
……
Headmaster Skeleton looked at Lee Han with contempt.
You other tower chiefs, don’t act like this guy.
“……”
“But isn’t Wardanaz the top of the class?”
Headmaster Skeleton pretended not to hear Salko’s question and ignored it.
The composition is the same as last semester. It’s fun to change.
Punishment room for failing students.
Prizes for top students.
According to the skull headmaster’s theory, the top and bottom heads of each tower were allowed access to the reward tower.
A place where all you have to do is overcome the trials on each floor and take the rewards!
However, students who had already tasted bitterness in the first semester were not fooled.
“We don’t need a reward. principal.”
“Can’t we just go back?”
You don’t have to be humble. I know you guys want to receive. ruler. From the White Tiger Tower!
“I think a punishment room would be better.”
As Lee Han muttered, the skeleton headmaster next to him writhed in an annoyed voice.
How dare you say that?
“?”
Didn’t the number of students who failed this semester decrease because of you? There are no more people to take to the punishment room, so you dare say that?
“…Ah yes. I am sorry.”
Lee Han regretted listening seriously.
‘It was just bullshit.’
Entrance!
Adenart, who was standing next to him, greeted him lightly as if asking for a favor. Seeing that, Lee Han realized that he had become close with the princess.
‘As expected, bribes are the best.’
If you keep giving food like this, by the time you were in the second year, you didn’t know if it would be possible to ask for a light guarantee.
If a guarantee is not enough, even a recommendation letter when doing business…
The Challenge of Cooperation
Sometimes the most difficult thing is cooperation, students. help each other
“?”
Lee Han was puzzled by the explanation of the challenge.
‘Isn’t it easy?’
Basically, Lee Han was on the friendly side with the princess.
I don’t know what kind of challenge will come out, but I don’t think it will be very difficult…
‘No. Considering the difficulty of the tower, there might be a harsh challenge.’
Perhaps the ordeal now compels the assurances he was trying to ask for later.
Lee Han vowed that if such a thing came out, he would never go beyond it. The
door
opened and the White Tiger Tower, the Black Turtle Tower, the Phoenix Tower, and the students who entered first walked in from the other direction.
“……”
“……”
Lee Han and Adenart frowned at the same time.
* * *
An unexpected situation occurred, but Lee Han calmly exclaimed without panic.
“Everyone don’t move! We can work together!”
Giselle and Salko were dumbfounded instead of nodding their heads at Lee Han’s cry.
“Will you put down your cane and talk?”
“Why are you pointing the cane at me when you speak?”
“It is like a habit. Don’t move anyway.”
“……”
The two were dumbfounded, but they didn’t move hastily.
He knew very well that in such a situation, Wodanaj would never lie.
Normally, he was generous enough to forgive Guinando for stealing food from the warehouse, but when the situation arose, Wodanaz could always calm down.
‘Even if I counterattack once, it will be impossible now.’
‘If we use Moradi as a shield, will our Black Turtle Tower students be able to escape?’
“I. everyone.”
Tigilling Priest raised his hand cautiously.
“I don’t know exactly what kind of challenge this is, but I think it will be a mutual loss if we keep things in check like this.”
“That’s right. Let’s all trust each other.”
Lee Han said while still aiming his cane. Giselle and Salcho didn’t even think to comment.
Anyway, if I pointed it out, I’d still hold the wand!
Salco asked, crossing his arms.
“Wardanaz. you came in last Do you know anything about this ordeal?”
“no. I don’t really have any more info. But I have a guess.”
Lee Han calmly looked around at his friends and said.
“It’s probably an ordeal that can be overcome by attacking each other and reducing a few people.”
“……”
“…?”
There was silence for a while.
Adenart, who was next to him, also tilted his head and looked at Lee Han.
“Where did you get that information…?”
“If you want to test cooperation by gathering students from different top schools, wouldn’t it be natural to go through such an ordeal?”
When Lee Han said it as if it were natural, Adenart shook slightly. Is
that…
is it?
When the boy from the Wodanaz family speaks so earnestly, it seems to have some basis…
“Now. It is to select the number of people who can be reduced in a way that we can understand by cooperating with each other. Got it?”
“It sounds crazy, but if that’s true, that’s all there is to it. Rather than fighting and being annihilated for nothing…”
Salco replied with a heavy heart.
-They’re young wizards!
A ghost wizard rose from the center of the tower.
The opaque ghost holding a staff looked around at the students with eyes shining.
-Clumsy magic won’t be able to overcome this difficulty. Will you guys be able to cooperate with each other and defeat me?
“?”
“…?”
The students blinked their eyes when the ghost wizard appeared instead of ‘kill each other to get rid of a few’ as Lee Han said.
Salco asked hesitantly.
“Isn’t it an ordeal that we can move forward only by reducing a few people among ourselves?”
-what? What are you having such a terrible delusion about?
The ghost wizard looked at Salcho in a puzzled way.
The goal of this ordeal was for students from different towers to join forces to defeat a wizard more powerful than themselves.
“……”
“……”
-?
When the students stared at one of their friends instead of answering, the ghost wizard also looked away in puzzlement.
At that moment, Lee Han immediately hit the magic.
“Shine!”
-quite!
The ghost wizard was taken aback, but like a seasoned wizard, he swung his staff and deflected the lightning.
At the same time, a gale raged in all directions, and ferocious rock fragments were shot out like shotguns.
The students quickly dodged behind their own cover.
Lee Han immediately shouted at his friends.
“Everyone, let’s attack that ghost!”
“Wodhanaz, I’m sure…”
“Salcho! Now is the time to talk nonsense!”
Salko was slightly offended by Lee Han’s screams, but had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
Certainly, the important thing now was to defeat the ghost wizard in front of me.
And in a battle like this, there was no commander like Wardanaj.
As Salcho kept his mouth shut and prepared to fight, Giselle thought to herself.
‘I really want to hit one.’
It wasn’t for nothing that Challenge said that ‘sometimes the hardest thing is cooperation’.
It was to the extent that I wanted to wield a sword, including the ghost wizard and all the things that I had accumulated on a daily basis.
“Moradi. Cast a spell on the sword!”
“okay.”
Giselle listened attentively as she prepared her spell from behind cover.
There was a chance that I stuck my head out for no reason and got hit again. In this case, it was necessary to grasp the opponent’s movements by hearing.
‘On the other side. It’s towards the Blue Dragon’s Tower.’
Knowing that it was safe, Giselle signaled towards the Black Tortoise Tower.
It was a signal to get up and strike the enemy from behind. Tutanta also replied that he understood.
“three. two. One. Now!”
The students who got up immediately tried to attack the ghost wizard.
However, what caught their eyes was Lee Han, who took a strong breath and defeated the ghost wizard like Adenart.
“……”
“……”
Giselle cut the word ‘cooperation’ in < The Challenge of Cooperation > with the knife she was holding.
