Episode 613
When Lee Han left the door, Eandurde chased after him.
“Junior. You should be here.”
“??”
Eandurde looked at him as if he had to do that.
Lee Han thought about how to explain it.
“So, where we are going from now on, we don’t know what kind of violence the principal will wield…”
“Don’t speak ill of people calmly. Because the violence has already been used up.”
Headmaster Skeleton stopped Lee Han from speaking and put a bracelet on Eandurde.
It was a bracelet that suppressed the evil eye that was cursed with petrification and the hair that turned into a snake.
“Can I take you?”
“To adapt to Einrogard, you have to study and study, but you also have to practice going around.”
Seeing the grunting junior, Lee Han suddenly became worried.
You’re not attacking passers-by, are you?
‘It must be stopped.’
Lee Han made a firm commitment not to turn his junior into an imperial criminal.
“let’s go.”
The two students followed the headmaster’s footsteps.
The junior sniffed and smelled the people passing by.
“That…”
“That’s an ice cream cone. I used a toasted waffle as a cone and topped it with ice cream.”
At Lee Han’s explanation, the junior’s eyes twinkled.
And he got ready to snatch an ice cream cone from a kid passing by.
“Make up with steel, Cloak!”
After quickly tying his limbs with his junior’s cloak and transforming them into steel, Lee Han hurriedly whispered.
“What did I say, junior? If we attack first…?”
“ah. You can’t attack first!”
“yes!”
At Lee Han’s words, Eandurde became sullen.
He wanted to try that snack.
“…principal. Give me some money to buy ice cream.”
“If you buy everything you want to eat, your child will become spoiled.”
Even as the skeleton headmaster said that, he bounced the imperial silver coin. Lee Han went to the stall and bought an ice cream cone.
“ruler. If you need something, you buy it with money. got it?”
“Money is made through work.”
“yes!”
Lee Han felt proud when he saw a junior who ate ice cream and said something unique as he had learned.
Like a clever guy, if you teach him one thing, he remembers three things.
“But can’t I take the money?”
“…Junior. Let’s talk again. So if I take the money first…”
Lee Han continued to teach Eandurde on the way to meet the new student of the Pengerin family.
My juniors understood me well, but every time a passer-by held something interesting, I would forget the teachings and get ready for battle.
The skeleton headmaster who saw the scene said a word.
“I’ll have to get you enrolled in Einrogard soon.”
“……”
Lee Han was worried that his juniors who entered Ein Lorgard would be called ‘Black Turtle Tower’s Beast’ by other tower friends.
You should have a lot of friends like Nilia…
“That’s…”
“I can’t!”
Lee Han grabbed the back of his junior’s neck with one hand and swung his staff with the other hand to secure the cloak.
The junior said with bewildered eyes.
“It seems like everything is here…”
“…haha. You have a very good eye! Isn’t that wonderful?”
Lee Han quickly put down his hand and cane and praised his junior.
Eandurde nodded with a smile, forgetting that she had just been misunderstood.
* * *
The Pengerin family was a family with a fairly high reputation in the empire, and the nobles of the family were proud of it as well.
One of the people who inherited this trait the most was Alhi.
At the age of less than 10 years old, Alhi read not only Imperial letters, but also letters from the Three Kingdoms, letters from the Ancient Kingdom, and letters from the Seven Kingdoms, and solved all sorts of complex arithmetic problems.
It wasn’t just intelligence.
In swordsmanship, which is regarded as a culture of nobility, he showed achievements that impressed many swordsmen, and he was not missing out in music, literature, or art.
As much as he had such a talent, expectations were high within the family.
“So it is correct to send them to Einrogard. In the first place, they decided to send it to Ein Lorgard, but now they change their words. Do you intend to tarnish the reputation of the Pengerin family?”
“For the sake of the future of the Alhis, I’m willing to risk the reputation of the Pengerin family getting a little dirty. If it’s Gonadaltes-nim, I’ll convince you! Alhis don’t have to waste time hanging out with other criminals. Call the tutors and have them study!”
“Why would other nobles send tutors to Einrogard instead of training them? Ein Rogard is the most traditional and outstanding magic school in the Empire. Aren’t there few nobles who have been taught magic under a tutor who have achieved outstanding achievements?”
“That’s because the wizards called as tutors are lousy! It would be different if I called the best. You can’t waste precious time mixing with other criminals, whether it’s at the Magic School or the Mage Tower!”
Several people in the family strongly expressed their opinions about Alhi.
Older people insisted on self-education properly rather than wasting precious time, and younger people insisted on sending them to Einrogard without making any vain attempts.
The confrontation was even more severe as both of them sincerely appreciated the talents of Alhi. To such an extent that no one will give in easily.
“Alhi guys. What do you think? Wouldn’t you like to go to Ein Lorgard? It is to compete with the best talent at the best magic school in the empire.”
“Don’t put any pressure on me. Alhideul. Even if you go there, it will be hard to find guys who fit your level. You should spend your time in solitude, wasting your time!”
Alhi hesitantly looked at the elders of the family.
He knew that he was talented, but it was difficult to decide which choice would be right.
If you think about the outstanding teachers, it seemed like it would be right to go to Einrogard, but if you go to Einrogard, there won’t be friends of the same level as you, so it seemed like a waste of time… “Are you there?
”
“The late Gonadaltes! sorry. This disrespect… Come on in.”
“no. I happened to hear the story. indeed. I guess you were contemplating admission because of Pengerin-kun’s talent.”
“That’s right. dismissal. Excuse me, but in my foolish opinion, I think it would be more efficient for students to study on their own without entering the school…” The
skeleton headmaster managed his expression.
Fortunately, this winter, the work was over quickly, so if it wasn’t a joke, I didn’t know if I would have been cursing.
“It can be. Everyone worries like that.”
“dismissal! I thought you would understand!”
While the skeleton headmaster pretended to appease the Penguin family’s penguin brutes, Lee Han whispered to his junior.
“That guy over there is one of the students you will be entering with.”
“fight? fight? succumb?”
“no. It’s not about fighting… no. If you see that it’s a different tower, you might be able to fight. I might just come in with you. If you can look up and be friendly, be friendly.”
“You look weak.”
“Being weak doesn’t mean you can’t be a friend, so…”
“Wodanaz. Come here.”
Lee Han, who was educating his juniors on ‘making friends at Ein Lorgard’, hesitated at the call of the skeleton principal.
“What are you doing?”
“Here, the Pengerin family wants to know the average level of Einrogard students!”
“…?”
Lee Han wondered what the average level of Ein Rogard students had to do with himself.
Do you want to talk?
“Shall we talk about Cainan too?”
“no. There is no need for that.”
Headmaster Skeleton put his hand on Lee Han’s shoulder and said.
“Here, Wodanaz is a guy who is somewhat average in Einrogard.”
“……”
Lee Han was dumbfounded.
Of course, Lee Han wasn’t overconfident or arrogant, but he knew that he wasn’t the average Einrogard.
Because he was a senior!
“That’s why, if you look at this guy, you’ll know the average level of Einrogard. ruler. Penguin. Come here.”
The Alhis walked out nervously because they had met unfamiliar wizards.
However, there was also a hint of confidence in his appearance.
It was his confidence that even if he was a senior to him, he would not be inferior in knowledge.
“What part is Pengerin-kun excelling at?”
“Alhi has no shortage of dealing with numbers.”
“Can you show me?”
The Pengerin family did not hesitate to bring thick arithmetic books.
Then he randomly opened a page.
“ruler. Alhideul. Let it go.”
-The wizard wants to buy the following items with twenty-two silver coins…
Ssukssakssssssss-
Alhideul lowered his head and began to move his quill quickly. Numbers and formulas came and went in a dizzying fashion.
how long has it been
Finally, the Alhis raised their heads after seeking an answer.
“I got it!”
“……”
“……”
“?”
Alhi and others were taken aback by the unusual reaction.
The adults of the family were staring at Alhi and Lee Han one after another with puzzled eyes.
“Good job. Penguin. But your senior wrote the answer the moment you lowered your head.”
“…?!”
The Alhis looked at Lee Han in disbelief.
Surprisingly, the same answer as the one given by Alhi was written on the paper with Lee Han.
Neatly, even without any formulas!
‘Nonsense! It’s a trick!’
Headmaster Skeleton said in an arrogant manner.
“Pengerin-kun isn’t bad either. Ein Rhogard may be a bit lacking, but… well… Ein Rhogard isn’t a harsh place that prevents students from entering just because they’re a little short.”
‘You really do too much.’
Lee Han felt a little sorry when his junior, the penguin Suin, made an expression as if the sky was collapsing.
If you are at the level of Alhi, you will probably be able to get grades in the top five within the first year.
Lee Han is too good at arithmetic, but it’s not that Al-His are lacking…
“Al-His aren’t just good at numbers. They are also very good at texting.”
“Can you show me?”
The men of House Pengerin did not hesitate to bring back thick historical books from the Three Kingdoms era.
Then he randomly opened a page.
“ruler. Alhideul. Read it.”
-As the three kingdoms hated each other and burned the continent, an enraged ██████ set out to retaliate…
“Wait.”
Headmaster Skeleton stopped the reading by pointing out that the Alhis sneaked past.
“Why are you passing?”
“yes? It’s been erased and I can’t read it…”
“It’s not erased. Wodanaz? Please explain.”
“…It was rewritten in the characters of the West Harin Kingdom. It is read as ‘Gonadaltes’ in the language of the West Harin Kingdom.”
“!!!!”
Alhi and others were greatly shocked by Lee Han’s words.
Unlike before, this couldn’t have been a trick.
Isn’t it a book that people in the family brought and opened!
‘I… I can’t believe there was someone better than me…!’
“What’s next? Is it swordsmanship?”
“That’s right.”
“Bring your knife. Wodanaz.”
Lee Han whispered in response to the skeleton headmaster’s relentless instructions.
“principal. Aren’t you a bit pitiful?”
“Are you feeling sorry for me trying to appease a guy with no talent and get him into school? Thank you for comforting me.”
“…No, that junior…”
“I need to be thanked for giving me a free understanding of the subject. What a pitiful thing. Better to realize now. If you get older and realize it, you will become an alcicle. Wouldn’t that be better?”
Seeing the skeleton headmaster hacking away Alcicle, who was not present, Lee Han quietly shut his mouth and went to get the sword.

After several confrontations, the drawing room of the Pengerin family became quite quiet.
One of the elders of the family muttered in a low voice.
“Maybe Alhi’s talent wasn’t that great…”
“Aren’t we too fascinated because we are members of the same family?”
“…What are you saying! Didn’t people outside the family say that Alhi’s talents are outstanding!”
“Maybe it was just a polite compliment.”
“…?!”
Is that… is that so!?
