Episode 779
“Because of you! “I am because of you!”
“Aren’t you really crazy!? “I will take revenge!!”
Gainando shouted in tears, but the world of wizard duels was cruel. Once you lose the lead and start getting hit, it’s not easy to counterattack.
Aden Arth summoned a chakram-shaped artifact from the air.
As a wizard who specializes in summoning magic and enchantment magic, Aden Arth skillfully combined these two into an attack.
The round blade-shaped artifact gained magic power every time it rotated in the air, and at the same time used that magic missile to fire a magic missile.
Puk puk puk!
“It’s shaking before my eyes… Wow!”
Gainando, who tried to cast a curse spell to kill time, was hit while casting and lost concentration.
‘Dark magic sucks!’
Gainando blamed the irrationality of black magic, which requires counterattacking by memorizing long spells.
Once summoned wizards are summoned, they can do other things!
“Huh… Sigh!”
Gainando, who was running hastily down the snowy slope, quickly threw his body to the side. Then the prince’s appearance suddenly disappeared downwards.
‘…this!’
As Gainando disappeared from sight, Aden Arth felt like it was a mistake.
It was clear that the opponent, like a student of Einrogard, was trying to get out of sight and gain time before launching a counterattack.
However, instead of getting scared and retreating, Aden Arth calmly took out the potion.
He received less attention because there was a strange genius in the same grade, but he was originally a genius who chose three majors from the same school.
He was a student who also asked Professor Garcia, ‘Are you sure it’s okay?’
As an outstanding student of the alchemy school, Aden’Art took out the potions of ‘Enhanced Senses’ and ‘Magic Power Amplification’ that he had created, drank them, and then summoned another chakram.
‘…come!’
Adenart glared ahead with the clearest and most distinct hostility he had ever felt since entering school.
I will definitely punish this half-brother!
“…??”
But the counterattack did not return. Aden Arth checked the bottom of the slope to see if it was possible.
Instead of using black magic to prepare for a counterattack, Gainando dug into the snow and ran away.
“!”
“Just wait and see! “I will take revenge!”
“under! Do you think you can run away!”
Gainando, who thought he had already created enough distance, raised his middle finger gracefully and cursed at his half-sister.
Seeing that, Adenart gritted his teeth and said he would definitely chase after him and see to the end.
And Lee Han arrived.
“…What are you doing?”
“……”
“……”
* * *
The fog of war always easily turned the advantage or disadvantage.
A wizard who was once advantageous could become disadvantageous at one time, and conversely, a wizard who was disadvantaged could become advantageous.
And Gainando, who was running away after being beaten, suddenly gained a huge advantage.
Thanks to Lee Han appearing in the direction he was trying to escape, he was able to snitch first.
“$#@$%$#%! ■■■■■!”
Gainando, who was excited, began to ramble on, saying, ‘The imperial family are all cruel and ruthless tyrants!’
Of course, it was difficult to understand because they were trying to say too much at once.
-and! This is my first time hearing this language!
“That’s not a new language, it’s just an imperial language.”
When the baby basilisk showed interest, Lee Han quickly stopped him.
Only after the excitement subsided was Gaynando barely able to convey what he wanted to say.
“So, when you gave her a sandwich as a gift, the princess got angry and started attacking her?”
“I guess he was trying to attack me and eat them both!”
“……”
Lee Han looked at Gai Nando very suspiciously.
No matter how much I thought about it, it seemed like there was another secret that Gainando didn’t tell me.
“The princess has a strong appetite, but isn’t she the type of person who would attack and steal from her colleagues?”
“Lee Han. You said it too! “You never know what people will do when they’re hungry!”
“Yeah… I told you. “When you said you would become a grocery warehouse manager…”
Lee Han said in a cold voice.
That’s what Guynando said when he asked me to take care of the food warehouse.
“Is that so? anyway! The point is that Aden’Art attacked me first! “Even though I even handed out sandwiches!”
“Woah… Wardanaz.”
Aden Arth arrived panting from afar.
Aden Arth was breathing heavily as he ran through the snow.
Gainando looked at him as if he was disgusted and whispered.
“You’re just pretending to be tough! “Don’t be fooled!”
“Wh, there is a situation here.”
“You’ll say you’re hungry! He would say he was really hungry! “Don’t be fooled!”
“…Gainando. “Stay away for a moment.”
Ihan pushed Gai Nando away to listen to Aden Arth.
Adenard, barely able to catch his breath, explained as elegantly as possible why he attacked his half-brother.
But Adenart was mistaken about one thing.
Sometimes, no matter how elegantly you state certain facts, they are not elegant.
“…ah. So you’re saying you were so angry that the sandwich had been changed that you attacked Guynando?”
“you’re right! Wodanaz.”
Aden Arth thought that Lee Han understood and shouted in a happy voice.
-Uh… Is that person a glutton?
“It’s definitely like that.”
-Compared to that person over there?
“I think it’s similar.”
“??”
Aden Arth tilted his head as he saw Lee Han talking in an unknown language into his sleeve.
Could it be that she is insulting her half-brother?
* * *
The two barely reconciled.
“……”
“joy.”
“It’s good to see you reconciled. Do not attack each other, and if each other is in danger of death, help each other with noble dignity. Just do that much. “I don’t want anything more.”
Lee Han was a realistic person.
In a situation where they had to explore an uncertain dimension, there was no time to dramatically improve their relationship.
‘Because it’s impossible even in Einrogard.’
“Although there were some commotions, it can be said that we were lucky that the three of us got together like this. “Let’s move to the central area as quickly as possible.”
“Lee Han. When and how are you going to rest and eat?”
“Wardanaz. “Did you witness any existence from another dimension while you were here?”
Guynando and Adenard asked questions they each thought were important.
And Gainando quickly changed his words.
“Actually, I was going to ask about existence in other dimensions too!”
“……”
While Gainando’s half-sister was looking at him with a very disdainful look, Lee Han separated the two and spoke.
“I haven’t met any monsters yet on my way here. “There’s no way there aren’t people who can sense the energy of an outside intruder, so don’t let your guard down.”
The denizens of the dimension usually did not like intruders coming from outside.
Of course, the intruders included wizards, and these active raiders were one of the main culprits in increasing the difficulty of exploring other dimensions.
-master. You met a spirit, right?
“……”
-master? Can’t you hear me? I met a few cold spirits on the way! I ran away when I saw my master!
The baby basilisk chattered eagerly, wanting to help Lee Han.
Lee Han smiled and pressed his sleeve. The baby basilisk, whose mouth was stuffed shut, struggled without knowing why.
“…Lee Han. “Didn’t the basilisk just howl?”
“You say you’re hungry. haha.”
“You’re such a glutton!”
Guynando laughed at the baby basilisk.
How can you have such a big appetite?
-Duh… Eup… Ugh!
The baby basilisk hissed in anger and tried to shoot back, but it was no use.
“Wardanaz?”
“yes?”
“There is a spirit over there.”
“Aren’t you seeing it wrong? There is no way there is a spirit that hasn’t run away yet…”
Inadvertently spilling the truth, Lee Han turned his head in the direction pointed by Aden Arth.
Surprisingly, several hedgehog-shaped cold spirits were playing at the top of the slope.
“Could it be that they are special spirits that do not run away even when they see me?”
“I know that too…”
Aden Arth was at a loss as to what to answer when asked a difficult question.
Honestly, I don’t think so…
-Master. There are already many beings who serve the master, right? Why do you need spirits like that??
The baby basilisk tilted its head and expressed puzzlement.
Didn’t powerful and evil beings, including the baby basilisk and the griffon Perkuntra, make a contract with Lee Han right away?
“…don’t you feel something strange as you speak?”
-???
The baby basilisk didn’t notice what was strange.
Isn’t it good if the contracted summons are strong and evil?
“First, I want to negotiate with that spirit and ask for directions.”
“It’s a good idea. Princess. “I will support you.”
“…Swing. “I’ll be back…”
Neither Lee Han nor Gainando were wizards who were favored by spirits.
Aden Arth felt sorry for no reason (only towards Lee Han) and walked away.
“Lee Han.”
“?”
“I’ve never seen such huge ice before.”
Gainando looked around while waiting for Ardenart.
As soon as I arrived, I was hit by Ardenart, so I couldn’t even look at it properly.
“It’s an ice shelf. “If you travel around the cold dimension, you will see it often.”
Lee Han explained the terrain of the huge ice plain.
Wizards wandering through other dimensions had to become familiar with all kinds of natural geography.
“What is that gap over there?”
“It must be a crevasse.”
“Then what about that huge lump?”
“That’s the head of a frost giant…” Lee Han,
who was explaining, paused.
Something was strange.
“Wardanaz. It is said that frost giants haunt this place. “We’d better move east.”
Ardenart, who had just finished negotiating, came down and explained.
Aden Arth looked puzzled when the two looked at each other instead of reacting.
“Why are you doing that…?!”
A frost giant was suddenly climbing out from under the glacier. Every time I put my giant finger into the glacier, there was a sound of the ice splitting.
thud!
Finally, the frost giant landed completely on the glacier.
It was similar in size to the giants that haunt the Einrogard Mountains, but its eyes flashed a cunning and intelligence not seen in giants.
And also hostility.
-Is it an intruder?
“…We are wizards.”
Lee Han spoke carefully, stopping his friends who were trying to run away.
Although beings from other dimensions are relatively hostile, running away or attacking them without talking to them could actually be adding fuel to the fire.
If negotiation is successful, it will not only reduce risk but also be of great help in dimensional exploration.
‘What can I suggest to the other person? Think about it. The frost giants…’
-Wait. that…?
The frost giant trailed off, pointing to the tip of Lee Han’s staff.
Encrusted there was a blue gemstone that had been given to me by the frost giant king.
‘ah!’
Lee Han thought of a way to persuade the frost giant and shouted.
“you’re right. “This is a gem given to me by the king of the frost giants!”
-So you are the honorable challenger! I heard about you!
“Oh my! “What an amazing coincidence!”
Lee Han shouted, pretending to be even more impressed by the other person’s reaction.
“I never thought I would meet someone who knows that matter like this. It seems fate is taking care of us. “This is also an opportunity. Why don’t we exchange what we need?”
-Oh I need something!
“What is that?”
-honor!
“…How can you get that…”
-The honor of defeating an honorable challenger recognized by the king!
Lee Han immediately motioned. The friends quickly ran out.
