Chapter 580
“You’re talking too much…”
The apprentice knight looked at Giselle with a hurt expression.
Of course, it was unheard of to recommend a member of a mage family representing the Empire to the Knights, like the Wardanaz family.
It was also difficult to predict people’s reactions.
However, if he was a boy from the Wardanaz family, he deserved to be recommended for the Knights Templar.
Just looking at the fact that he subjugated anti-magicists like the knights of the Beech Tree Order the other day, isn’t it?
In the case of Wardanaz, if you raise the honor of the person who recommended it together, it will be raised, but there is no way to lose it.
Woudhanaj is good because you can join an outstanding knights, and Moradi is good because you can get the honor of recommending an outstanding talent
…
Lee Han went out for Moradi.
After all, recommending the name of one’s family to the knights was an act that was difficult to do unless one was quite friendly, since if the other party made a mistake, it would damage one’s reputation.
The moment I recommend it, I can’t help but think, ‘Oh, you must be quite friendly’.
Of course, Lee Han’s actions didn’t help much. Giselle immediately denied it.
“It’s not? Why would I refuse to be acquainted with the Wardanaj family? What are you talking about, Wodanaz you?”
Giselle, who has a great sense of politics, could never admit it.
No matter how much he was not a knight’s family, there was nothing to gain from rumors that he had refused to be acquainted with a great aristocratic family like the Wodanaz family.
“No… Hey…”
Lee Han tried to end it on a good note, but was taken aback by Giselle’s reversal of the story.
Of course, Giselle also glared at Lee Han with an extremely absurd look.
‘Why do you say that you don’t want to cause misunderstanding that our family is close to the Wodanaj family? What if the Wardanaz family is offended?’
‘no. People in my family don’t even read the imperial newspaper. I won’t even care what you say.’
Durgyu, who was worse than that, stepped out.
“Wordanaz has said many times that he has no intention of joining the Templars on a regular basis. That’s why Moradi reacted hastily. I am harsh, but please forgive me.”
“okay. That’s it.”
“that’s right. That’s right.”
Lee Han and Giselle nodded in relief.
In fact, it was very dangerous for Lee Han to be misunderstood that he wanted to join the Knights.
There were few jobs that were as difficult and painful as those of a knight.
If I thought about it a little more calmly, I could have responded, ‘What does that have to do with profanity?’, but I accepted the apprentice knight for now.
He was acquainted with Durgyu, but something else aroused his curiosity.
“Wardanaz. If it’s you, you’ll be able to excel even if you come to the Knights, but why? Even the knights have wizards. They are highly respected and help the knights. Moradi. The knights of the north where your family is…”
‘Shut up. You’re a ignorant bastard.’
Giselle succeeded in swallowing it internally this time.
If you want to recommend it to the Knights, Ji will recommend it, so why do you keep recommending it to Giselle?
Fortunately, Durgyu answered again.
“Even after graduating, Wardanaz will stay at Einrogard. Because I have to study magic with the professors.”
“Are you out of your mind, Durgyu!?!?”
Lee Han exclaimed in fright.
This time, Durgyu put on a slightly hurt expression.
* * *
It took some time for the apprentice knights and students to clear up misunderstandings and put their heads together.
“So the six of us should spend the day in those mountains.”
Lee Han asked cautiously at the apprentice knight’s words.
“Do you know where to start?”
“Of course not! haha. Wodanaz. Then the test won’t work.”
‘Such a ignorant bastard.’
Inwardly, Lee Han cursed at the apprentice.
The students of Einrogard were locked inside, but what did these knights do when they came from the outside and couldn’t dig into it?
Professor Ingeldell would have been more generous with them.
“Wardanaz. It’s a big deal.”
“Why?”
When Giselle whispered, Lee Han was puzzled.
Of course, I haven’t heard where to start, but isn’t this a big deal?
“I was originally going to go into a mountain hut and spend the night.”
“Was it?”
“…do these bastards look like they’ll tolerate that?”
“what? no. Of course I’ll accept it…”
Lee Han, who was about to say it, hesitated.
The apprentice knights’ eyes were more upright and bright than I thought.
what?
“for a moment. everyone. There’s one thing I’m curious about, but among those… other friends have friends like this. I want to hide a cabin in the mountains in advance and take refuge there.”
As soon as Lee Han’s words ran out, the apprentice knight hated him.
“You do such a mean thing? Who the hell?”
“Wardanaz. I have to tell the professor now. Who is it?”
“…well. I was passing by and heard it.”
Lee Han’s face became serious at the reaction of the apprentice knights.
Lee Han made an excuse for a while and called his friends separately.
“no. Are all knight families like this? Isn’t preparing a mountain hut a skill? How much trouble did you have to prepare for the supplies to bring in there?”
In a sincere voice, Lee Han expressed his feelings to his friends.
What do apprentice knights who have been living comfortably in the outer city know?
Lee Han and his friends worked hard in their spare time to make a mountain hut undetected throughout the mountain range.
They secretly went up when they were on duty at night, when they got up early in the morning, and when they had spare time during the day… The
materials to put in them were like gold that had been hard-earned from outside.
ignoring that!
“Among those originally from knight families, those who joined the knights early are more stubborn.”
Giselle agreed with Lee Han’s words and explained.
Trained as apprentice knights from an early age to fulfill their role in the order, they were stubborn and did not know how to compromise.
That was fine, but the problem was that they forced it even on the students of Ain Lorgard.
“Well, the White Tiger Tower kids are good at compromise.”
“okay. … what?”
“…Isn’t that enough, Lee Han?”
Giselle and Durgyu protested involuntarily.
He came from a family of knights, but saying that he was good at compromise did not sound like a compliment.
“Aren’t you good at negotiating?”
“On what grounds do you make such a scandal?”
“Last time, one of your tower students sold a wooden sword on the black market. If you check, there will be a few kids without swords.”
‘Crazy bastards.’
Inwardly, Giselle cursed at the top students.
They were truly embarrassing bastards wherever they went.
“He must have been really hungry. He must have been very, very hungry.”
“Hey… Choy. Just shut up.”
Giselle gestured to her oblivious orc friend. The more I talked, the more I fell into a pit.
“The important thing now is not how well our tower compromises.”
‘You guys asked.’
Lee Han thought so, but kept his mouth shut out of consideration for his friends.
Durgyu, with his head lowered, was also Durgyu, and Giselle’s ears were burning red.
“How to deal with those useless things. The exam will start soon. I do not have time.”
“That’s right…”
Lee Han was lost in thought.
Professor Ingeldell had tied the wizards and knights together to cooperate in harmony, but it was counterproductive.
It was an obstacle for the three of them, who were planning to find a cabin in the mountain range right away.
Lee Han, who was worried, spoke cautiously.
“I can only think of one thing.”
“me too.”
“I also remembered one.”
The three looked at each other in surprise.
Are you all thinking the same thing at the same time?
Durgyu was very happy inside.
‘It’s worth fighting together for a year!’
Usually Gisele and Lee Han don’t get along very well, so I’m always nervous, but seeing this gives me some hope.
After all, trials are what make comradeship strong.
“Then shall we all talk? three. two. one.”
“Let’s put it to sleep and then subdue it.”
“Knock it out, then subdue it.”
“Fairly and with skill… Huh?”
Durgyu was embarrassed.
The other two friends’ answers were a little different from what I expected.
In the current situation, since there is nothing you can do about it, isn’t it the right improvisation to give up and work together with the three apprentice knights to overcome it?
Giselle also tilted her head.
Of course, that was a worry in a slightly different direction from Durgyu’s.
“Can you sleep?”
“I made a sleeping potion with my friends. You could say it’s cold protection.”
“ah. It will be much more peaceful. good. Let’s go like that.”
Lee Han and Giselle came to a quick conclusion.
Let’s put the three apprentice knights to sleep, then tie them up and take them!
“Why is that, Durgyu? Do you have anything to improve on?”
“…It is nothing. Let’s conquer it with our skills in a fair and fair way… I was going to talk about this.”
“haha. That’s right.”
“It’s convenient through meaning.”
At the words of the two friends, Durgyu smiled lonely.

Rumbling –
“I never thought I’d move in a carriage!”
Ravda of the Enge family was amazed.
He didn’t know that he could move this mountain range by wagon. Ein Rogard was not a school for wizards for nothing.
“Rabda. You must have been a master of sucking swords, right?”
“It’s not even the moon. I am still far away.”
At Lee Han’s words, Ravda spoke humbly. But in that look, I could feel the pride that I couldn’t hide.
The swordsmanship of the Enge family is a rare swordsmanship even in an empire that focuses on the magic of absorption.
Knights are already proud of their family’s swordsmanship, but in the case of Ravda, that pride was inevitably stronger.
“amazing. I’m also practicing the trick of breathing, but I can’t believe I applied it to swordsmanship. It’s hard to imagine.”
“Thank you… Huh?”
Ravda felt something strange.
‘How are you practicing?’
Was the technique of breathing supposed to be practiced in the first place?
“ruler. Everyone drink this.”
Lee Han handed over the potion in a round glass bottle. The apprentice knights looked at them with curious eyes.
“What is this?”
“It’s a potion that allows you to withstand the cold.”
“oh. thanks.”
Gulp –
Lee Han smiled happily when he saw the apprentice knights drink the potion in turn.
“Can you guess where the carriage is going?”
“at all. It doesn’t seem to be moving in the normal way.”
Giselle, who closed her eyes and checked the direction the carriage was moving, frowned.
Aside from the lack of windows, this wagon had been showing movement in physically impossible directions from earlier.
Even while going up the slope, it suddenly went down and moved back again…
It was clear that it had flown or teleported several times along the way.
Kung Queek!
The carriage stopped and the door opened. It was a signal to get off.
Lee Han and his friends tied up the sleeping apprentice knights and carried them off one by one. Then the wagon without a driver turned around and quickly disappeared.
“My eyes are getting worse…”
Durgyu made a pained sound as he checked his surroundings.
I had a hunch that it would not be easy for the snow to get thicker and thicker.
“I heard that there are giants in this mountain range. Maybe you won’t meet a giant.”
“You don’t have to worry about the giant. There are no giants now.”
“Right. Thank you… Uh Leehan. But how do you know that?”
Durgyu asked, but Lee Han could not answer.
He was concentrating on checking the location of this area while looking at the map.
“found. If you walk for about 30 minutes from here, you will see the mountain hut I prepared.”
“Ugh… what the hell…?”
Ravda tried to wake up with a sleepy voice.
Giselle struck Ravda in the stomach with the pommel of her sword. Ravda fell asleep again with a shriek.
“What is going on?”
Lee Han, who took his eyes off the map, asked, and Giselle shrugged.
“It’s nothing. Let’s go.”
