Episode 599
Leaving the laughing pupil alone, the skeleton headmaster approached Professor Voladi.
Still, unlike Verdus, he was a hardworking professor, so he couldn’t leave him alone.
Don’t be too heartbroken. Professor Bagreg.
“……”
However, Professor Voladi was silent without answering, perhaps because the shock was greater than he thought.
Headmaster Skeleton was perplexed.
Since I wasn’t used to this type of consolation in the first place, I couldn’t think of what to say.
If it were another professor, if he said he would increase the subsidy for the school, he would instantly cheer up, but in the first place, Professor Baegrek has zero… no, only one student, so the subsidy doesn’t mean much… Look
. It was different from what the professor prepared, but it must have been quite a rewarding test.
The skeleton headmaster looked at the Death Knights with consolation.
The Death Knights clapped and said.
-you’re right. Professor Bagleg! This is a real test!
– Where can there be a true test as much as the real test? You can think of this as a final exam!
The giant who pulled out a tree stump to stop the bleeding from his nose agreed.
-right. This is a good test.
Lee Han, who had been watching, also slightly helped.
“I learned a lot.”
As everyone present worked together to appease him, even Professor Voladi had no choice but to break his stubbornness.
“I’ll see what I prepared this time next year.”
Then it will work. Professor Bagreg. haha.
“What will happen?”
Lee Han looked straight at the skeleton headmaster.
There is a separate exam for that year, so why bother passing this year’s exam to next year?
-Wizard. Wizard. nosebleed won’t stop
“Wait. We will treat you.”
Professor Voladi’s test must have also flown away. Lee Han checked the giant’s wounds with gratitude.
Professor Arkasis, who saw it while passing by from behind, nodded and scrawled “perfect score” roughly on the paper.
* * *
“Ouch!”
Waking up, Gainando was surprised to find that the surroundings were dark.
Looking around, a large bonfire spewed out sparks in front, and students from each tower were gathering and chatting under a nearby tent.
Among them, Anrago of the Alpha family was cutting a gooey chocolate eclair and putting it in his mouth. Just by looking at the tip of the eclair, Guinando quickly recognized which product it was.
One of Guyinando’s favorite cake products was < The Maikin Family's Magical Chocolate Eclair >.
“Hon… eating alone!”
“Ahh!”
Angrago was startled by the appearance of Gainando suddenly shouting from the sleeping bag behind him.
It seemed that a ghost had appeared.
“When you wake up, I will speak quietly. Why are you shouting so much? Do you know how much we worked hard to save you?”
“Save? …ah!”
Only then did Kainando remember that he had been kidnapped by a vampire.
The students of the White Tiger Tower became excited and shouted.
“okay. I gave up dancing to save you and fought so hard.”
“…doesn’t make sense? You guys tried to save me? Isn’t it Lee Han?”
Gainando showed a sharp point even in the midst of being distracted and hungry.
At those words, the students of the White Tiger Tower were taken aback.
How did you know this kid?
“Did I guess? huh?”
“…Anyway, we fought together. Prince bastard.”
“that’s right. You should be grateful… Hey! Why are you eating that!”
The students of the White Tiger Tower were horrified when Gainando, who sneaked up on them, swept away the food on the table.
“Oops. Let’s eat some together. Crumble.”
“Go to your tower and eat it!”
“What are you doing?”
Lee Han, who was serving various cheeses on a pan after frying them in oil, was puzzled when he saw Gainando and his friends at the White Tiger Tower.
“Wardanaz! The prince is crazy! They’re eating us!”
“Just eat some together. The final exams are over anyway.”
“That’s what…”
The White Tiger Tower students, who were about to protest, looked at the place where Lee Han had been standing until just now.
It was Wodanaz, who was frantically preparing, roasting, and trimming ingredients in front of the oven with the priests of the Phoenix Tower.
Conscience is also conscience, but I felt a sense of crisis that if I continued to argue here, I might be beaten or kicked out.
“…well… I get it…”
‘No. Are these children grown up?’
Lee Han was slightly surprised by the reaction of the White Tiger Tower students.
Instead of complaining about the taste, you show a reaction like that?
In fact, the semester must have ended. Among the ingredients, I was cooking extensively to finish all the old ones.
Various cheeses are fried, old bread and ham are butter-baked, and canapés are made and served with a mixture of cheese and eggs… The old rice is made into a risotto with plenty of fish and spices brought from the
river, and so on.
In fact, even if the old ingredients do not go bad, the taste is bound to deteriorate, so I thought that some people would complain, but no one complained and ate deliciously.
‘My tongue must have been optimized while staying in Einrogard for close to a year.’
Lee Han looked at his friends at the White Tiger Tower with pity.
Friends of the White Tiger Tower, who do not know the truth, were munching on it, saying that it was so delicious.
“Lee Han. Lee Han.”
“?”
A bowl of fish soup, two plates of pork cutlets in the Middle Empire style, five skewers of chicken and sparrows, and three of Professor Thunderwalker’s special cottage sausages.
Now the mind to ask is back.
“What happened?”
“What happened? ah. Are you talking about Professor Bagleg skipping the final exam?”
Lee Han talked about the most impressive thing that happened today.
Of course, Cainando was not interested in such things.
“It’s just a common occurrence!”
“no. How great is this…”
“You know that monster. monster!”
“ah. that’s right. There was that too.”
“……”
Gainando was dumbfounded, but his friend explained without changing his expression.
So, the vampire monster took Guinando and tried to disappear, but thanks to the brave giants and death knights who came and fought together…
“…Uh!? My overcoat, my overcoat!?”
“sorry. The bloodsucking monster destroyed it.”
In fact, the giants destroyed it, but Lee Han blamed the subjugated vampire monster.
As bad as he is, taking a few more sins won’t change anything.
“Speak… nonsense! Like this cursed monster!! how?! how my coat! It was a real masterpiece!”
“no way. It wasn’t quite like that.”
“Are they just moderately good?”
“No matter how well you hit it, it was flat.”
The other friends forgot their possessed memories and answered shamelessly.
Not only the students of the Black Turtle Pagoda and the White Tiger Pagoda, but also the students of the Blue Dragon Pagoda like Asan.
“I don’t know why we were so envious.”
“that’s right.”
“This… these bastards… I envy them so much that they disappear…!”
Gainando trembled with resentment.
I never thought people who couldn’t take their eyes off the coat would act so coldly just because the coat was gone.
“You… you answer! You were interested in coats too!”
Gainando called Adenart. Adenart, who was eating with his followers, raised his eyebrows slightly at the call of Gainando.
“I’m not sure what you mean.”
“…hey! Ah-oh! You obviously wanted it!?”
“Certainly the coat was interesting.”
“yes? yes?!”
When someone from behind took his side, Kainando turned around excitedly.
A handsome man I had never seen before was sitting in a chair.
He was a handsome man like you would see in old books or statues of the old kingdom.
“uh. Is there a handsome man like this in the White Tiger Tower?”
“…what do you mean? Are you the prince?”
The students of the White Tiger Tower were furious.
Of course, compared to the Blue Dragon Tower, it lacked noble dignity, but the students of the White Tiger Tower did not think that was a disadvantage.
I thought it was a difference that was revealed because I chose the spirit of a knightly business manager and a lively atmosphere.
“It’s not your fault. It won’t be easy for young guys these days to keep up with the beauty of my era.”
The handsome man with the horse casually took a piece of food from the plate in Gainando. Kainando was shocked that he hadn’t reacted.
“What are you doing right now…!!”
“What are you doing, principal?”
“Would you like some more?”
Kainando froze and held out a plate.
The humanoid headmaster took the plate and emptied the food on top.
“I wanted to see that coat once, but it was a pity. It must have been a pretty good curse, like the ingredients.”
“Can the magic be completed by mixing it up like that?”
“Very occasionally. Sometimes magic is born out of chance.”
While Principal Skeleton and Lee Han were talking, the White Tiger Tower students got up and took refuge in another tower table.
The other top students, who would swear and kick them out at any moment, were allowed to sit together with a frightened expression on their faces.
“School principal. Are you here to take someone who failed?”
Gainando asked while hiding behind Lee Han.
At the end of each semester exam, the skeleton headmaster took it as a small pleasure to lock up those who failed in the punishment room.
“no. No one failed this time. More than that, why are you talking nonsense about sand octopuses living in the undead realm?”
“That… I thought it might be found someday…”
Principal Skeleton began to explain ‘what is an inductive argument?’ with a look of contempt.
Gainando cursed himself for answering honestly.
After making Gainando collapse just by talking, the headmaster of the skull looked at Lee Han and asked.
“What are your plans for this winter break?”
“I’m trying to collect a hundred gold coins.”
“…Don’t plan like that…”
Headmaster Skeleton had to hold back a sigh.
“Movement. movement. Normally, during winter vacation, I wouldn’t stay in Granden City.”
“ah. yes. I’m going to go back to the Wardanaz family and see the head of the family. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to see you, but anyway…”
“Actually, there’s something I need to do before that.”
Headmaster Skeleton said seriously.
Hearing that, Guinando, who was next to him, was taken aback.
How could the principal read Cainando’s heart?
“Are you talking about inviting Lee Han to our family’s mansion?”
“……”
Skeleton Principal waved his hand, and Gainando was moved to the table directly opposite.
“His Majesty wants to see you in person.”
“…!”
Hearing this, Lee Han was greatly shocked.
It’s so shocking that other questions don’t come to mind.
“for a moment. Is there any reason why Gainando shouldn’t know that I’m having a private meeting with His Majesty?”
“You may know. I just kicked him out because it was noisy next to him.”
“…Ah yes.”
“I have already sent a call to the family head.”
“Did you get a reply?”
“no.”
“It seemed so. You’re so busy…”
“That’s right. Anyway, I’m sorry, but your plans for winter vacation have changed a bit.”
Headmaster Skeleton began drawing a simple schedule on the tablecloth.
First, we meet His Majesty the Emperor, then we meet the people we need to meet in the capital, then we secure new first-year students who have a difficult admission process, and finally, we put Yihan at the Wodanaz family mansion.
After that, Lee Han could spend a happy winter vacation break.
Or working on winter vacation…
“Uh. Principal. It’s okay to see His Majesty the Emperor, but there seems to be a lot of strange things after that.”
‘Because he seems quick-witted.’
