Chapter 590
Magicians don’t reveal their secrets, but I’m really curious about this.
Oripulas asked seriously.
The methods used by the previous students were methods that Oripulas could fully understand.
However, the way the boy of the Wodanaz family showed him now had no idea what kind of secret was hidden.
Fooling the eyes of Oripulas, who served as an imperial judge for 131 years.
In what way?
“Actually…”
True?
“So… but does revealing this affect your grades?”
no! Stop teasing me and tell me!
Oripulas exclaimed, burning with curiosity.
She pretended not to be Professor Rosine, but her ears perked up.
“That’s actually a criminal I fought and caught before.”
“……”
“……”
Professor Rosine and the good citizen Ubal of the Empire who were next to her were also at a loss for words.
Kilbedek couldn’t even raise his head in shame.
The people in the seat didn’t say anything, but Kilbedek heard an auditory hallucination in his ear: ‘Not a single young wizard like that was defeated and captured?’
And, in fact, the hallucinations were roughly correct.
‘When did you fight? I don’t think I’ll ever meet a freshman, right?’
‘No matter how much a wizard is like that, he’s still young and he gets caught like that. He must have been an inexperienced adventurer.’
Kilbedek unwittingly opened his mouth and made an excuse.
“Actually, there are circumstances that can’t be helped…”
Perfect score… Perfect score!!
Oripulas, trembling with emotion, finally came to his senses and clapped his hands.
It was a really amazing and touching way.

“It was an unusual test, really.”
“The acting person did a good job. He seemed like a real criminal.”
“……”
Lee Han was about to say something, but he held back because he didn’t want to scare his friends.
It was nothing good to hear that they had kidnapped criminals from outside and brought them there.
‘okay. It’s not long before the final exams anyway.’
As the many exams ended one after another and the weekend drew closer, the faces of the students brightened.
Even in Lee Han’s eyes, this final exam was the most stable among the exams he had taken this year.
Surprisingly, there were no emotions such as frustration, pain, despair, or regret on the faces of the students.
Originally, during the test period, those feelings, especially, should have been deeply engraved like scars.
As expected, the great escape incident before the final exams was a big factor in this.
If you have a warm meal, a comfortable bed, and plenty of teaching aids, you can keep your mind to some extent while studying magic!
The students who realized this secret were amazed even by themselves.
‘And I was surprised too.’
I never thought my friends would become this strong just by being full and warming their backs.
Lee Han gave up after contemplating whether to talk to the skeleton principal later.
‘I don’t think I’ll get a very good look.’
“Are you there?”
-come in! come in!
After passing through the poisonous fog and arriving at the underground warehouse where the giants are staying, Lee Han went inside.
Even during the exam, Lee Han would often visit the giants and check them out.
As long as I had to stay close to a week, I didn’t know what variables would arise.
However, the giants listened to Lee Han much more than they were worried about. The friendship he had forged with the giant did not waver even in these underground warehouses.
‘No big deal.’
Some giants were sleeping snoring loudly, some giants were painting murals on the walls of warehouses, and some giants were playing giants chess (similar to chess, but a variant of chess only used as horses by giants and mountain rangers).
“Are you all right?”
-there was!
“?!”
Lee Han was surprised.
“What happened… did you run out of food?”
-no! Rather, do wizards think of us as gluttons?
“Could that be? You giants eat so little that it worries me.”
Lee Han lied without spitting on his mouth. The giants were overjoyed by Lee Han’s flattery.
-okay? is it?
“yes. Do you know the friend I was talking about last time, Gainando? The amount he eats is much…”
-Ah! The dude with the pot of stew on his head?
-A friend whose clothes were burned while trying to put out the fire with his cloak?
-A friend who was kidnapped by a wyvern while trying to fly on top of a tower?
“Isn’t this the last one?”
Lee Han was puzzled.
The last one was something I hadn’t talked about before.
The giants scratched their heads.
-what? wasn’t it?
-weird? Then who is it?
-I already said it was Cainan Island. I told the other giants too.
-Then let’s just call it Cainando!
While the giants compromised on their own, Lee Han turned the story back to normal.
“What happened? If it’s not food, maybe other seniors came to visit…?”
-ah. Wizards have been here before.
“!”
Lee Han was nervous.
It was the most likely and dangerous thing for other seniors to get access to this underground warehouse.
One of them could have spread rumors about a giant, or told Professor Voladi directly.
‘hmm. no.’
Among the risks Lee Han had just considered, he excluded the possibility of speaking directly to Professor Voladi.
No matter how much I considered all the possibilities, it seemed unlikely that there would be a senior who would speak directly to Professor Voladi.
“Are you in?”
-no. As he approached, he fell to the floor.
– Other friends took them and ran away.
“……”
Lee Han was a little worried when he remembered the poison and dark magic traps that were still in high concentration.
If the image of the seniors of the black magic school deteriorates for no reason because of Lee Han…
‘It can’t be helped. I have no choice but to explain it later.’
When Lee Han entered the second year next year, he made up his mind to make excuses for the seniors of the black magic school.
“If it’s not food or a wizard, what is it?”
-Here came the monster.
“There are so many monsters in Ein Lorgard…”
Lee Han wasn’t too surprised to hear that they were monsters.
To be honest, Ein Lorgard had more monsters than students.
“Isn’t it like a flying skeleton? It’s really dangerous.”
– Not that!
-It’s the vampire monster the wizard told me about.
“…!!!”
Lee Han was surprised.
A blood-sucking monster that woke up somewhere in the basement of Ein Rogard and broke through the Death Knight’s encirclement.
Of course I thought he had run away to the mountains…
I never thought he would be found again in the basement of the school.
“Is that true?”
– I saw it. He opened the door and came in, saw us and ran away.
-It’s very sloppy!
The giants burst into proud laughter.
‘Mmm.’
However, Lee Han’s thoughts became complicated.
It could have been that the opponent saw the giant and ran away. Because the giants were powerful and there was nothing good about fighting them.
But you ran away right away.
It meant that the opponent was more cunning and intelligent than expected. It was clear that he had taken what he suffered from the Death Knight as a lesson.
There is no monster as annoying as a monster with good learning ability.
‘I just don’t have to run into them until the final exams are over.’
-really. That’s not the point.
“?”
-He’s looking for a wizard.
-that’s right. He smelled like a wizard.
“…?!?!!!!”
Lee Han was most surprised by the stories he heard today.
“Looking for me? Isn’t it an illusion?”
– It’s not an illusion. I know you smell wizards.
– Beasts often do that. When Yang gets angry, he sniffs the person who made him angry and breaks his back.
Here, the giants of the Ein Rogarde Mountains were excellent at herding ferocious monsters, and as such, they were good at guessing the intentions of the monsters from their movements.
That’s why it was weighty for the giants to talk about vampire monsters like that.
“Why are you following me? I didn’t really do anything wrong… well, it’s not that there’s nothing wrong, but I think the Death Knights did more wrong.”
When fighting the vampire monster, Lee Han also attacked a little, but compared to the Death Knights, it was a hemostasis.
If you want to pay off your grudge, shouldn’t you chase after the Death Knights first?
-what are you talking about. Wizard?
– Wizards don’t know much about beasts yet. You need to grow more sheep.
The giants burst into laughter at Lee Han’s reaction.
He still had little experience with the habits of monsters.
– Beasts chase delicious prey, not hunters who beat them.
– Right, right. It’s clear that he was obsessed with the magician.
“!”
Only then did Lee Han fully understand what the giants were talking about.
‘Was it like that??’
It was clear that the blood-sucking monster came to this underground warehouse in pursuit of the smell of the remaining Lee Han.
Then, I met completely unexpected giants and ran away…
‘Is it because of magic? shit.’
The fact that the blood-sucking monster I met for the first time in my life was salivating at Lee Han was only magical.
– So the wizard. We have something to say.
-right. that’s right.
The sleeping giants woke up, the giants who were painting murals approached, and the giants who were playing giant chess also stopped playing.
To be precise, the losing giant stopped. The winning giant got angry.
The gathered giants folded their arms and resolutely announced their decision.
-We will stand as an escort.
“…yes?”
– No matter how you think about it, that beast will be annoying. Especially for wizards.
“…ah no.”
Lee Han, who was tempted for a moment, immediately came to his senses.
No matter how strong the giants were, they couldn’t take them with them as bodyguards.
After leaving Professor Voladi’s exam, rumors will immediately spread throughout the grade as a mad student.
-I heard that junior takes a giant as an escort.
-He must be a real ant-crazy guy…
“That can’t be the case. You must not be discovered.”
-ah. right.
-It did.
The giants realized the situation belatedly and became sullen.
I’m worried about Lee Han, but I can’t go outside.
“I am fine. I can protect at least one part of my body.”
-is it?
-Aren’t you hiding from that powerful wizard right now?
The giants were clumsy in the Imperial language, not stupid.
Lee Han flinched when he stabbed the sore spot with a mean swing of the fact.
“…Professor Bagreck is a bit exceptional.”
-Can’t beat flying skeletons?
“The headmaster is a bit of an exception…”
-That smart guy-troll?
“Professor Garcia… No, really, he’s the type to protect himself well!”
Lee Han raised his voice involuntarily.
The giants were staring at Lee Han with sad eyes.
-Wizard. Okay. Originally, wizards are sickly.
– A strong warrior protects. Wizards are protected. Originally so.
‘It is unfair.’
Lee Han was frustrated by the fact that he couldn’t be persuaded because his opponents were too strong.
Among wizards of the same level, he’s really punctual!
-Wizard. Call us if you need help.
– We’re going to help.
“Yes, thank you.”
Lee Han replied in a tired voice.
* * *
“Wait. Aren’t you tricked by the principal?”
Right before the final exams, Professor Passelette came up with the question he should have asked first.
-is it?
-I don’t think so.
“No matter how hard it is, I don’t think he would ask for a difficult exam…”
Principal Skeleton said, ‘Lee Han wants to take a more difficult exam’, so he prepared it that way, but when he thought about it, it seemed unlikely that the student would.
Isn’t there something strange…
– You’ll know from the reaction! If that’s a lie, he’ll tell you!
At the cry of another personality, Professor Passelette thought it plausible.
Well, if the principal’s words are false, the student himself will say, ‘Professor, my test is strange’.
There was no way I didn’t notice that I received materials that were completely different from those of other friends next to me.
After a while.
students came in
Each of the students who arrived at their seats checked the materials and test contents.
After confirming this, the test began without any objection.
‘Uh…was it real?’
Professor Passelette felt a little sorry for Headmaster Skeleton.
