Chapter 547
“Today’s task is to read these requests and sort out the boulders.”
Mages considered themselves to be the light that led the cutting edge of the Empire’s intelligence, but in fact, wizards weren’t always smart.
This was especially true when it comes to contracts or requests.
If you get caught wrongly by the worn-out swindlers of the empire who have made it their business to cheat others all their lives, even the wizards of Einrogard will be defeated in an instant.
“As these are actual requests, you can apply for something you like!”
“Are you doing it during vacation?”
“yes yes. I usually do it on vacation! Some students do it in the middle of the semester, but studies come first.”
After hearing the professor’s explanation, the friends murmured.
“Is there anyone who does it during the semester?”
“Aren’t you crazy?”
“You can do it, children.”
Lee Han, unknowingly, was furious and defended himself.
It was heartbreaking to just listen to it from the standpoint of being forced to make a request arranged by Professor Alpen.
“Do you know how much a lecture or laboratory study costs? I need to earn even a penny more. Even if it is during the semester, you can still receive requests.”
“Okay, I get it. Wodanaz. We were wrong.”
“Why are you so angry? Surely you weren’t angry because you cheered when you got hit in the arm earlier?”
Friends flinched and retreated.
He hadn’t expected Wardanaz to defend him to such an extent.
‘But no matter how urgent it is, I don’t think the request in the middle of the semester isn’t real.’
‘It’s hard to keep up with studying right now.’
Looking for people!
Must be human race!
No drinking habits!
You must be in good health without any illness!
You must never have been experimented with magic!
…
“Oops. Han Lee. Han Lee. I feel like eating this whole raw!”
Gainando was excited because he seemed to have found a request that suited Lee Han’s usual ‘I want to eat it raw’.
Lee Han read the request from Gainando carefully and then called the professor.
“professor. I think we should report it to the guards.”
“?!”
Would you like to work in the Maikin family alchemy workshop?
-Preferential treatment from the alchemist guild
-Preferential treatment for night work -Preferential
treatment for those who can sleep for more than a week The
following benefits are provided for long-term workers, so pay attention…
‘Shouldn’t this also be reported?’
Lee Han was a little worried.
No matter how you look at it, it was a notice issued by Yoanen, Yoner’s older sister.
‘I might go back to work during vacation, so I’ll have to move on.’
The students were interested and confirmed the request for commission.
Everyone had worked during summer vacation, so they were interested in a decent request.
“I think this is fine.”
“I have this.”
Unlike the strange quests, all the popular quests among students were similar.
Magic book translation!
Please translate the magic book found in the ruins. If it is sold at a high price, we will pay extra.
Regarding magic education,
we are looking for a magician who can teach 1st-circle magic < Generation of Light > or < Generation of Flame >.
Those who do not have the skills to do so but pretend to be wizards will politely decline (retaliation may occur in case of failure).
‘no. Aren’t there more good requests than I thought?’
Lee Han looked at Professor Rosine with eyes full of respect.
As Lee Han, who struggled to find useful work during vacation, I could immediately see how high quality these requests were.
As a professor from an imperial bureaucrat, the level of requests he brought was different from Lee Han’s.
Of course, there were a lot of strange requests, but it was clear that they were deliberately brought for lectures…
‘I respect you. professor.’
Professor Rosine, who was sitting and chatting with Oripulas, was taken aback when Wodanaz suddenly gave her a respectful look.
“What happened while we were talking?”
Mage He must respect your lectures. It’s something to be proud of.
“What nonsense are you talking about? How many lectures are you taking?”
Professor Rosine was very good at self-objectification.
There was no way that Wodanaz, who had been listening to all of Einrogard’s raw meat lectures, would give that kind of look to a lecture that only reads these requests.
“I think the interpretation or translation of the magic books is good.”
“I am a tutor. I think I can teach you this much.”
The quest to risk one’s life to enter a dungeon or ruins wasn’t actually a very attractive quest for a mage.
There are many places that covet the magician’s ability, and as many as there are, there are numerous safe and comfortable requests.
Among them, work such as translation or interpretation of magic books or magic education was a golden opportunity to easily fill the poor pockets of Einrogard students.
“But who commissioned this?”
“Aren’t you a merchant?”
“It looks like a wizard, but…”
Even if the book was not written in esoteric characters, outsiders could not easily understand it unless it was written by an individual wizard.
But now, in order to sell or value it, you had to analyze or interpret what was inside.
Popular at this time were orthodox magicians such as Einrogard students.
“now. These translation requests are generally good! Everyone made a good choice. However, keep in mind that it’s okay if the quest is from a merchant or collector, but if it’s from another mage, decline it! Most wizards are people who have broken their character!”
“…?”
“???”
The students listened and tilted their heads because they thought something was strange.
Of course, most of the empire’s wizards didn’t have the ability to interpret such magic books.
This was because the self-taught wizard without proper magic education only knew how to use his own magic.
And because such magicians realized their lack of skills or knowledge, they would become more obsessed with the interpreted sorcery books. To the point of trying to get it at any cost.
Of course, there was nothing good about being involved with these wizards, so it was right to reject it…
but why does it feel a little strange to hear it?
“How about this training request?”
“ah. good! It’s good that there are many people in the empire who are interested in magic.”
Wizards had an honorable image befitting their intellect.
Of course, among the noble families of the empire and the newly rich families, there were quite a few who wanted their children to become wizards.
However, there are some who are reluctant to send their family line to boarding school.
Wizards who acted as tutors for these people often came out.
It is to stay in a mansion or manor and teach magic to the people of that family.
“This kind of request is generally good! Everyone made a good choice. But one thing to keep in mind is that you need to check the family’s reputation first. What if I take on the work of a disreputable family?”
“omg. Do you break the payment of gold coins?”
Lee Han said in a fearful voice.
Professor Rosine shook her head.
“Of course, you may not pay, but that’s a minor thing.”
‘How trivial is that?’
“If you do something wrong, you may be seized by force in the mansion and have to continue teaching magic. So be careful! People who want to learn magic aren’t usually toxic.”
The students who listened to the professor’s explanation were amazed and whispered.
As hard as it is to find a wizard who excels in teaching, if you find such a wizard, there will be people who will try to catch it somehow.
But when I heard it in person, I was shocked.
“Lee Han. What if I visit and get caught?”
“hmm. Guinan Island. Black magic is usually well…”
Lee Han tried to say, ‘Normal people don’t ask for black magic to be taught well’ to allay Gainando’s fears.
“What if I lock you up and give you chocolate? Should I pretend to accept the threat??”
“If I don’t return by the end of the vacation anyway, the principal will be looking for me…” Lee
Han, who picked out as many strange requests as possible with his friends, took a few useful-looking magic book interpretation requests and educational requests.
‘Whoops. I’ll have to deal with it later on vacation.’
However, Lee Han’s face soon hardened.
The other friends also started taking the same request that Lee Han had chosen.
It was only natural that good quests would inevitably overlap.
“…Should I apply first…”
“Huh? What did you say?”
“Nothing. Guinan Island.”
Lee Han snatched the request < Wanted Wizard Card Master > from Gainando’s grasp and threw it away lightly.

After Wednesday, the snow started to fall harder.
The students’ expressions became complicated when they saw the rapidly accumulating snow.
Thanks to his experience in the first semester, he knew how painful it can be when the school is covered with snow.
“Get the sled out from the inside!”
“one two! one two!”
Fortunately, thanks to Lee Han and his friends’ hard work during the Buyeo magic lecture, various winter preparations were prepared.
However, none of the students thought that this level of preparation would be enough.
“Why are White Tiger Tower guys taking out their sleds? Are you thinking of getting a horse out and pulling the sleigh?”
“Horses are dangerous in this weather… Those bastards! I’m dragging myself!”
Starting with the White Tiger Tower students, who pull the sled on one side and ride on the sled on the other, by dividing the number of people, to the Black Turtle Tower students who make a path by connecting ropes and poles outside the dormitory tower.
Thanks to several trials, the students did not break down even if they were shaken or cursed.
“Struggling. suffer.”
Professor Thunderwalker came down on his long skis, looked around and clicked his tongue.
“I think we should reduce the amount of lectures. I don’t have time to study because I’m working.”
“professor…!”
Lee Han looked at Professor Rosine again with the same eyes he had seen Professor Rosine earlier.
Does a person’s true character come out in times of crisis?
“really. Uninvited guests keep coming to the garden, so I need you to help me. Wodanaz.”
“…No, you said you don’t have time to study, right?”
Lee Han said in bewilderment.
To think that Lee Han asked for additional work after worrying about the students.
Isn’t Lee Han a student?
“ah. right. yes. sorry. Wodanaz. You inadvertently thought differently.”
“……”
“I prepared food for you.”
“So what are you doing?”
Instead of arguing, Lee Han went straight to the point.
Due to the heavy snow these days, the amount of food from the vegetable garden was gradually decreasing.
Some cold-resistant vegetables or eggs were fine, but others were clogged.
It would be a great help if he was a professor who always gets plenty of groceries from the kitchen or outside.
“An uninvited guest. If he’s too strong, I’ll have a hard time dealing with him.”
“I am not a strong man.”
Professor Woorestep, who was talking and moving his steps, asked again if he was curious.
“By the way, how strong are you talking about usually? I’m asking because it might be a little different from what I think.”
“…just tell me who you are.”
“It is a spirit. government ordinance. Frost Elemental.”
“!”
Lee Han was pleased with the words.
When winter comes, the spirits come riding the snow as the cold energy gets stronger.
I really didn’t expect cold spirits to appear around me!
When Lee Han visited the spirit realm, the spirits ran away and it was impossible, but the reality was the opposite.
Even if Lee Han is discovered belatedly, it will not be so easy to escape as the spirit comes directly.
“If it’s the cold spirits, then they’re the kind of spirits you showed me, aren’t they?”
“yes.”
“They’re very capable guys in many ways.”
“right.”
“Could I possibly sign a contract this time?”
“That’s too much.”
“……”
Lee Han glared at Professor Thunderwalker.
