Chapter 583
However, once lost trust never returned.
The White Tiger Tower students who came down on stretchers glared at Professor Ingeldell with eyes like puppies who had been scammed of their trusted snacks.
“Everyone…”
The students turned their heads.
“I’m sorry everyone. I misunderstood the difficulty of the test.”
“It could be.”
Lee Han, who had brought his friends to the front, responded reflexively.
When Giselle, who was next to him, looked at him like a madman, Lee Han made an excuse.
“sorry. habitually.”
When the professor apologized, he couldn’t help but say ‘It’s okay’ out of habit.
“Did you get hit by the slimes?”
The knights were amazed and asked.
The number was too many for the slime to inflict on them.
The shifting slime was a puzzling and embarrassing monster, but it wasn’t an incredibly powerful monster either.
I thought that if some of the students who suffered first were born, the remaining students would respond on their own
…
“Answer me.”
The knight of the White Sheep Knights called the apprentice knight in a stern voice.
This final exam was not only a test for Ein Rogard students, but also a place to evaluate the abilities of apprentice knights.
The mistakes made by Einrogard’s students are to be admonished by Professor Ingeldel, but the knights must be admonished to the mistakes of the apprentice knights.
“If you knew that transformation-type monsters had appeared, there would have been ways to respond?”
It was best to keep a distance between monsters such as shifting slimes by dividing them among confirmed people.
It was this type of monster that was not very patient, so if you endured like that, someday it would reveal its loopholes.
“That… it wasn’t the slime.”
“You weren’t attacked by a slime?”
When the apprentice knight looked up and said, the knight was surprised.
“ah. Right. Have you ever met a giant?”
“Are there giants in the mountains!?”
The apprentice knight was surprised.
The other colleague next to him was shocked at the reaction and whispered.
“I thought it was a rumor…”
“Keuhmm! Never mind that. Anyway, if you’ve met other monsters, you’ll understand.”
If that was the case, it made sense.
If the students’ plans are changed because of the shifting slime and they are attacked by another monster while moving quickly…
“Which monster is it?”
“That is true.”
The apprentice knight looked up and stretched out his finger. The finger was pointing at Lee Han.
“?”
“I was attacked by Wardanaz…”
“……”
The knights were silent as if they were at a loss for words. The apprentice knights also read the atmosphere and bowed their heads in shame.
“Tell me what happened.”
The apprentice knights did their best to explain.
The shifting slimes that transformed into Lee-Han’s party were so cunning and clever that they attracted the students well, and this guy tricked them into attacking the real Lee-Han’s party… “…That’s right.
”
“But wouldn’t all of these people have suffered that way? Why did you guys fall down?”
The other apprentice knights did their best to explain.
The shifting slimes who transformed into Lee Han and the others…
“Stop! stop!”
The knights blushed and shouted.
Everyone gets hit the same way!
Even if one or two people get hit like that, it’s normal to be suspicious and vigilant after that, but it was embarrassing.
“no! The test is a competition, but no matter how close you are, you can trust others so easily! What did you learn!”
“Because Wardanaz looks so trustworthy… Hehe. I was wrong.”
The knights of the White Sheep Knights reflected on themselves.
Professor Ingeldell’s test was not excessive. Rather, they were too complacent.
“I took care of you wrong. You can’t even respond to a situation like this.”
“Oh no…! I couldn’t help it because those Einrogards were tricked first!”
“noisy! Where are you making excuses? If you go back, it’s training!”
While the apprentice knights were being scolded, Professor Ingeldell apologized to the students once again.
“everyone. In the future, I will never prepare for a test like this as my first year final exam. Everyone has been through a lot.”
“no.”
“?”
Lee Han, who was listening, turned his head.
What crazy student said that in front of a professor with a sword?
“professor. Next year, I would like to prepare first-year students for such an exam.”
“…you’re right! It’s too bad that we have to go through this test alone.”
“It’s not the professor’s fault! We understand your sincerity!”
The White Tiger Tower students gnashed their teeth and shouted.
“everyone!”
“professor!”
The students hugged Professor Ingeldell and staged a touching reconciliation.
Lee Han was stunned by the sight.
‘No, these scumbags.’
Doing such a thing because it is unfair that they are alone!?
* * *
‘What?’
Lee Han, who arrived at Professor Mortum’s studio Dark Hall to take the black magic test, was puzzled when he received the test paper.
“professor?”
“Coke. why?”
“Oh, is this all?”
“okay. why?”
“it’s nothing.”
Lee Han looked around the classroom with a wary gaze.
But there was nothing in the classroom.
Gainando, who was sitting next to him, stared blankly at his friend who was eating a sandwich and doing strange things.
Raphael, who was worse off, asked Cainando.
“Why are you doing that?”
“uh? what?”
“Wardanaz. Wodanaz.”
From a while ago, Wodanaz was wary of his surroundings like a knight infiltrating enemy territory.
It was to the point where even Rapad-El was bothered by that appearance.
Is there anything around here?
“Isn’t Lee Han originally like that?”
“……”
Raphael regretted asking the prince.
‘This bastard won’t even notice if Wodanaz’s head disappears.’
“Coke. Wardanaz County. There is nothing hidden in the classroom.”
“Is that so?”
Lee Han summoned a paper bird and tried to check outside the classroom. Professor Mortum sighed and said.
“There is nothing hidden outside the classroom.”
“ah. okay.”
Lee Han cast < Ogonin's Recognition of Emotion > to try to figure out Professor Mortum’s emotional color.
Seeing that, Professor Mortum thought he should just explain.
“Coke. The last midterm exam was so noisy. So this final exam is going to be simple.”
“…I can’t believe it’s because the school’s reagents are all gone?”
Lee Han asked in a worried voice.
Judging from what the seniors said the other day, the school of black magic was not a school with a generous budget.
Even during the last midterm exam, the reagents were not enough, so the seniors were groaning…
“… Cough, did the seniors say anything else about the school of black magic?”
Professor Mortum became suspicious of what these immature seniors were talking about.
Did he whine, ‘I’m going to die because we don’t have reagents for our school’, even if he couldn’t show his dreams and hopes to the bright freshman?
I was shocked to hear that the other day a freshman went to another school and borrowed reagents…
“What are you talking about?”
“The circumstances of the school of black magic are in trouble…”
“It has never been like that.”
If Professor Mortum was a master of black magic, Lee Han was a master of student management.
The moment the professor asked, he already knew the other person’s intentions.
Gainando, who was listening from the side, tilted his head.
Obviously, the seniors say…
“Oh, go like a dog in our school!”
Lee Han slapped Gainando’s side in an invisible position. Guinando bowed his head forward.
“…Anyway, the school of black magic isn’t that difficult. Cool. So don’t think about it and solve it calmly.”
“yes. thank you.”
Lee Han was a little relieved by Professor Mortum’s words.
There were no special pitfalls, but it really seemed like this was a test.
Of course, this could also be a trick. Lee Han decided to relax moderately, including that possibility.
An excellent mage must assume all possibilities.
Choose one of the following creatures that lives in the undead realm.
1. Skeleton
2. Quenee
3. Sand Octopus
4. Rock Drake
5. Shade Ghost
‘Hmm.’
Lee Han received a problem and thought.
It looked easy at first glance, but it was a trap problem.
‘Skeletons are not creatures.’
The answer was ‘none of these’. Lee Han wrote down the answer with a quill and moved on.
Gainando, who was next to him, looked at Lee Han triumphantly and said,
“Lee Han. Is it too easy?”
“Did you see the problem correctly?”
“of course!”
‘This child. I’ll have to check it out when it’s over.’
Lee Han intended to scold Gainando if he wrote down the skeleton.
What if I was fooled by such a child’s play trap problem?
‘This limit is also true.’
On the contrary, Gainando was angry with Lee Han.
If you studied together like that, you should trust your friend Did you read the problem correctly?
Choose one of the following creatures that lives in the undead realm.
3. Sand octopus
No matter how much I thought about it, the only correct answer was sand octopus.
* * *
“Me. professor.”
After all four of them handed in their test papers, Raphael carefully raised his hand.
Gainando ate the leftover sandwich and stared blankly at Lapadel.
“Still, I want to confirm that I practiced for the second semester regarding summoning the undead.”
“Ouch.”
Guinando almost spit out the sandwich.
“Are you crazy!? The test is over!”
“…Still, I’ll have to check the summoning practice. The test is what it says.”
“What kind of nonsense are you talking about! it’s crazy!?”
Yihan and Ymirg also looked at Rapadel in amazement.
I didn’t know that Raphael would say something like that.
‘What are you thinking?’
Professor Mortum asked coolly.
“You seem to have become very friendly with your summoned beast.”
“Ah… no! We are not friendly!”
Raphael was shocked and denied it.
How could you say that to a man from an honorable family of knights who learn black magic to deal with black magicians?
But Professor Mortum nodded knowingly.
“Coke. Originally, all warlocks who learn to summon the undead are like that.”
Unlike other summoned beasts, undead summoned beasts had a rough temper and did not listen to their master’s orders well, seeking opportunities for rebellion.
However, if you endured such problems and trained them, at some point you could find yourself using undead summons as easily as limbs.
The pride at that time was to the extent that I couldn’t dare compare it to other summoned beasts.
‘is it?’
Lee Han was puzzled by Professor Mortum’s words.
It was something I didn’t really agree with.
Even though the undead were fussy, it was also an act, but summoning the undead gave me a sense of accomplishment…
‘You’re thinking useless, this guy.’
Professor Mortum clicked his tongue as he looked at Lee Han.
Well, it was natural for Wodanaz to not be very sympathetic to those words.
“I must have had a realization recently… Coke. okay. There is still time left, but let’s simply add undead summons.”
Gainando gave a short scream, but Professor Mortum had no intention of overturning his decision once.
“You are this child. Why are you here? Didn’t you hate black magic? Come back to the you you hated!”
“…still not very fond of it.”
“You are lying!! That’s a complete lie!! A guy who says he doesn’t like it prepares so much!?”
While Gainando was holding Rapadel by the collar, Lee Han raised his staff to do it first.
‘I’d prefer a dark element skeleton warrior.’
Among the many undead summons, it was the one that could move with the most confidence.
Recently, thanks to repeated efforts, it was possible to dance if only one object was summoned.
A perfect score for a skeleton dancer…
“Collock. Wardanaz-kun.”
“yes?”
“You don’t have to show me.”
“……”
