Episode 694:
Lee Han and his party drove a carriage and passed through an underground passage.
Every time the carriage wheels hit the hard stone floor, an echo spread across the high ceiling of the passage.
I clicked my tongue when I saw the lights illuminating the long underground passage.
It was no exaggeration to say that there were so many passages in the basement of Einrogard that even the principal could not keep track of them all.
I never thought there would be a road like this here.
“It reminds me of the passage I found last year.”
“You mean the aisle?”
Lee Han asked with joy.
When his junior’s face was distorted by pain and hatred, Ulde responded with a little relief.
“okay. “Do you remember last year’s flood?”
“yes.”
There was no way I couldn’t remember.
How hard did Lee Han and the first-year students work?
Lee Han even had to face the angry spirit directly to solve the problem.
“Natural disasters in Einrogard are painful, but at the same time they are an opportunity for students.”
‘You’re talking like a principal.’
Lee Han thought about bursting into sad tears if the other person heard.
“As the school’s solid order is shaken, hidden sideways are revealed. “It was the same back then.”
“You’re lucky.”
“Well…”
Erde made a bitter expression.
“The road was a road, but it happened to be a sewer through which magical waste passed. “At least I failed because I was caught.”
Escape from Einrogard was always fraught with numerous failures and dangers.
You cannot think that there will always be glory just because a path is created.
“Junior. If you’re capable, you’ll be fine, but don’t let down your guard. Einrogard is like a swamp. “If you let your guard down, it will reach your throat before you know it.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Nothing much should happen.”
Ulde looked back with a worried expression.
I was worried about the future they would soon enter, but I was actually just as worried about the future.
Since this plan was made under a tight time frame, if any variables arise, the situation will go awry.
I wasn’t sure if the first-year students who took charge of the rear would perform as well as the first-year students next to them.
“It will be okay. “All my friends are just as good as me.”
“but. When I looked at the potion, it wasn’t normal. “Professor Thunderwalker will be happy.”
“The Siana priest who created it is behind it.”
“It’s reassuring. “What about other friends?”
“Durgyu is a great knight. “He’s a match for me in swordsmanship.”
“Indeed… huh?”
Erde paused.
I thought that if he was on par with the Blue Dragon Tower student in terms of swordsmanship, he wouldn’t be that outstanding.
“I see. also?”
“Nilia is a hunter from the Shadow Patrol.”
“What is the Shadow Patrol?”
“no. What if you don’t know the Empire’s best rangers guarding the northern mountains of the Empire?”
Ulde was taken aback when his junior, who was always calm, got angry.
“I’m sorry. “I’m from the South.”
“No matter how much you’re from the South, this is common sense!”
“Remember this. “What about other friends?”
“hmm. “I think I’ve said everything…”
Yoner, who was driving the carriage behind him, said quietly.
“Gainando.”
“ah. Cainan Island. Gai Nando is also a good friend.”
“Didn’t you just forget…”
“I made a mistake because I was nervous.”
“So what’s so great about that friend?”
“Seniors. Your voice is too loud. “Please be quiet.”
“……”
This bastard?
* * *
“You’ll be okay, right?”
“It’ll be okay.”
“You’ll be okay, right?”
“It will be fine.”
“You’ll be okay, right?”
“It’ll be okay.”
“I guess it’ll be okay…”
Nilia Dergyu Siana exchanged glances.
Then he quickly grabbed Guyando’s arms and covered his mouth.
“town! Eupeup!”
No matter how much I tried to tolerate it, it was a bit too much to worry about whether my friends who came in every five seconds would be okay.
When the true Guynando signaled to be released, Durgyu carefully removed the gag.
“Gainando. If you keep doing that, I have no choice but to tie it up again.”
“Sobbing. “It’s because I’m worried.”
“I’m worried too, Gainando. But it’ll be okay. “Lee Han went.”
“Yoner can be caught, but I hope Lee Han gets out.”
Nilia and Syana looked at Gainando’s mutterings with contempt.
You bastard!
“I’d rather have my senior catch me.”
“that’s right. “Senior, it’s okay.”
“but. “Maybe my senior will be okay…”
While they were deciding among themselves a scapegoat, a light began to dimly appear in the distance.
At that light, Nilia felt her heart sink.
“It’s… a carriage!”
“what? Nonsense. “Probably not yet!”
Nilia jumped down from the tree and whispered urgently.
“Generation. Two lanterns per carriage. “It’s the upper carriage.”
“Damn you, Master Flemain!”
“?”
Durgyu couldn’t believe his ears for a moment because of Priest Siana’s swearing, but he didn’t have time to ask again now.
The fact that the upper carriage was coming at this hour was the worst situation I could have ever expected.
Lee Han went to the top, forged the signatures of the principal and Professor Verdus, and delivered fake communications.
Among the contents was that the actual arrival time of the carriage was delayed by about three hours.
Lee Han and his party planned to use the time they gained to attack quickly…
“I think they are planning to arrive early and wait since they are delivering supplies to Einroguard.”
“Why is Einrogard so needlessly infamous?”
“Can not help it. Take out what you prepared! Cainan Island. “Can you do it well?”
“That’s it.”
Although he had prepared, when the situation came when he had to do it, Gainando was nervous.
Dergyu held onto both of Gaynando’s shoulders and spoke strongly.
“We have to do it. Gainando! If you fail, Lee Han might get caught!”
“Okay… I understand. I’ll do it! let’s go!”
“good. “Everyone go to their positions!”
In the distance, the upper carriage rumbled closer.
Usually, the workers hummed along during this kind of operation, but today they were dead quiet.
He just muttered very quietly.
-Please let me leave safely…
-Please let me leave safely…
Delivering supplies to Einroguard was scary no matter how many times I did it.
“Please help me too!”
“?!”
“My friend passed out!”
Nilia ran out and shouted to the workers.
The workers looked away in confusion. Inside the bushes, there was a blonde boy who had collapsed with foam at the mouth.
“Is there a problem?”
“I went out to see the great moon squirrel that only appears at night, but I think I accidentally ate a strange flower!”
“Why do you eat that!?”
The workers became angry without realizing it.
Even though the other person seemed to be quite wealthy and high-ranking, he was ridiculous enough to get angry.
“I’m sorry. “Just because the color looks pretty…”
“What if I pick up something just because the color looks pretty?”
The workers rushed over to check on Gainando’s condition.
Gainando closed his eyes and concentrated.
‘I am sick. I am sick.’
Gainando was foaming at the mouth and shaking his head as he recalled his experience of feigning illness last year when he didn’t want to study.
The workers became serious at the sight.
“It looks like it hurts really bad.”
“If it’s around here, wouldn’t you have eaten a calaibi flower or a lanaton flower?”
“I think we should take them both to the village quickly.”
The person in charge thought about the workers’ reports and made a decision.
“Come up to the carriage! It may be inconvenient since it is a wagon, but there is nothing we can do about it. “I’m glad we left quickly.”
The students’ faces lit up when they somehow succeeded.
You succeeded in buying time!
Tap, tap, tap –
“?”
Workers and students turned their heads when they heard the sound of horses’ hooves from the other side.
A traveler I had never seen before was approaching me on horseback.
“Excuse me. Is anyone hurt? “I was passing through the upper road over there, and it seemed like there was someone injured…”
“Are you a healing wizard by any chance?”
“yes. “My name is Phil, a healing wizard from Einrogard.”
“omg!”
The workers were pleased and the students were in despair.
I never thought my senior would show up without me even noticing!
“You’re from Einrogard! I’m so glad! “There is someone here who ate a strange flower and collapsed!”
“Why did you eat that?!”
“We don’t know that either!”
“All right. “I’m going!”
As Phil began to approach, the juniors looked at each other with despair in their eyes.
At that time, Gaynando whispered to Siana.
“Priest Sianna.”
“yes?”
“Give me that. hurry.”
“No way…”
Sianna was embarrassed.
Apparently, there was poison prepared at Gainando’s request before departure.
A real poison that is not life-threatening but makes you really sick!
I thought I would use a drop if the acting was awkward, but now?
“hurry!”
“Here.”
“Tell this to Lee Han. “I drank heroically…!”
“Okay!”
Guynando opened the cap of the real poison and took a gulp.
Then he started foaming and convulsing.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
“Oh my! Please come quickly! “The patient’s condition is bad!”
Phil quickly arrived and checked on Gainando’s condition.
And then he shouted in shock. The poison had more than one ingredient.
“How many flowers have you eaten… no, how many flowers have you eaten?”
“Well, we too…”
“Let’s go to the village! “The reagents I have right now may not be enough!”
“All right!”
“Hold on a little! “I will treat you soon!”
As Phil held onto Guyando’s hand and shouted, the other friends watched with complicated expressions.

-Please organize it inside.
When we reached the end of the underground passage, a warehouse appeared.
It was a warehouse that Lee Han had seen before.
‘There is no warehouse manager!’
Lee Han and Ulde exchanged glances.
Since the Death Knight is not particularly interested in organizing the warehouse, he will not come inside.
Now all I had to do was get into the warehouse and move as quickly as possible.
Luck was on his side.
Grumble!
Like skilled workers, Lee Han and his party lifted the boxes from the wagon and placed them in the warehouse.
“Joner Ratford. request. “If I can’t come back…”
“That’s okay. Let’s just get caught together.”
“no. You too, start the carriage. “What would we do if we were all in the punishment room together?”
Two people had to stay behind in the warehouse and make excuses in case of an unexpected situation.
They say the Death Knights are indifferent to this, but the fact that no one is there is a different story.
“Arise, warriors of bone.”
Lee Han brought in skeleton warriors reinforced with the dark element and even called in Gonadaltes to take on the role of leader.
As the load that had to be moved was a burden, it required a lot of hands.
I was dumbfounded and looked at the undead summons and then just kept my mouth shut.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay, let’s go!”
Lee Han and Erde started running with their luggage.
As I ran through the deserted basement warehouse area and climbed the stairs, the area behind the central entrance was revealed.
An empty banquet hall, a large hall, and several closed doors.
“Come this way!”
From here, I ran without any problems as I knew where it was.
Go over to the area in front of the central entrance and go up the stairs to the warehouse on the second floor of the main building!
That was the original plan…
“!”
“!!!!”
The two were surprised.
Originally, there was a wall where the door to the front area should have been.
“You fucking Einrogard! “The location has changed!”
Ulde let out a swear word.
The terrain of Einrogard changes often, but this is the place that changes at times like this!
“We need to find the door!”
“It’s hard without a clue. In a situation like now…”
Lee Han was not swayed by his senior’s words.
‘Although Einrogard’s main building is constantly changing, the first floor, where outsiders frequently come and go, does not change so easily. There must be a door not far from here.’
Lee Han sharpened his senses and tried to feel the flow of magical power around him.
Where there’s magic there’s a way.
If you’re looking for a sense of discomfort, it’s definitely…
“Senior. This wall isn’t a wall, it’s a door!”
“what?”
Ulde reacted late and waved his cane.
Surprisingly, what my junior said was right.
It was not a wall, but a door cleverly disguised as a wall!
If I majored in fantasy magic, I should have figured it out first, but I made a mistake because I was nervous.
Ulde blushed with embarrassment.
“sorry! I should have found it. “I’ll cancel it right away.”
If you release the illusion wall, a door will appear. Ulde got down on one knee, put on his staff, and tried to recite a spell.
“Seniors. “How long do you think it will take?”
“5 to 10 minutes!”
“It won’t work. Let’s break it down with our strength!”
“How can you destroy this with force?!”
Ulde’s eyes widened at such an ignorant sound.
Lee Han attached his staff and swung his magic hammer to blow away the illusion.
thud!
Then the wall disappeared and a door appeared.
“let’s go!”
“You…what the hell did you just…”
“It’s Baldororn’s magical hammer!”
“…You must explain in detail later!”
Ulde ran forward, confused by the name of the fantasy wizard he had never heard before.
