Episode 840
“Oh, no.”
Lee Han’s lie was half a beat late because he hit the nail on the head.
Professor Garcia grumbled as if he knew everything.
“You don’t have to protect me, Student Lee Han. Lagesa has been like that for a long time. She was the type of person who said that bullying students wasn’t fun.”
‘That’s it.’
Lee Han was dumbfounded.
If we exclude Professor Garcia, what value is there in the Einrogard faculty? It’s a
really dangerous thing to say, but they could have become lower than Baldrogard.
“Ignore that nonsense.”
“That’s right, Student Lee Han. Then, shall we take the test?”
“…yes.”
“I’m just kidding. There’s no exam.”
The lecture on “Understanding very difficult and esoteric arcane magic (those who are not confident should not come)” did not have a written test.
In Professor Garcia’s opinion, there was no need for this lecture to test students by creating a separate paper exam.
“professor!”
“Are you happy?”
“I’m happy, but I’m worried about the professor. Isn’t the principal sending me to a punishment room?”
“……”
Professor Garcia was heartbroken to see his student already so mature for a second year student.
“Don’t worry I’m not going.”
“Are you really not going? “Professor Verdus, if you skip an exam on your own, you go to the punishment room, right?”
‘Oh.’
Professor Garcia cursed Professor Verdus in his mind.
He was teaching his students something really good.
“Professor Verdus, you know, has his own… um… purpose…”
“He abandoned his students and only studied his own magic. Is this the purpose you want to achieve?”
“…Thank you for telling me in detail. Student Lee Han. Anyway, Professor Verdus has a lot of criminal records, so he often goes to the punishment room. I don’t have a criminal record.”
No matter how much Principal Skeleton enjoyed sending someone to the punishment room, he didn’t send everyone to the punishment room. This
was especially true of the faculty. If one person is missing, there will be a hole in the lecture right away.
So, Principal Skeleton used his cool-headed judgment to send people to the punishment room. Sent it to.
Professor Verdus skipped the written test – 〉Professor Verdus would have done it with evil intentions, so he was sent to the punishment room.
Professor Garcia skipped the written test – 〉Professor Garcia would have done it in good faith, so there is no problem.
“Like this . “That’s right.”
‘No. You’re surprisingly fair, aren’t you?’
Lee Han was a little impressed.
As if he were the principal, he was quite fair in this regard.
“And if I go to the punishment room, there will be a lot of gaps in Einroguard work… For similar reasons, 5th grade students don’t go there often.”
“Verdus . What about the professor?”
“In the first place, even if the professor was missing, there wouldn’t be much of a trace.”
“……”
Lee Han was speechless
. How much raw food do you eat…!
“Thank you. Professor.”
“Ah. There is nothing special for this student to be thankful for. I decided because I thought there was no need for a test. You’re already busy this week , so take a break
from today’s lecture .”
Professor Garcia held out freshly brewed coffee.
Rather than giving lectures today, he planned to ask Lee Han how he was doing.
“By the way, student Lee Han. I heard that we all visited the Spirit King’s realm together.”
“Kick.”
Professor Garcia was greatly embarrassed when Lee Han made a snarky sound.
“Are you okay!? Was the coffee too hot?!”
“Oh no. I was just surprised. Information is passed on so quickly between professors…”
“Ah. Teaching students is an important job.”
I don’t think it’s a level to just ignore something like that.
Lee Han calmed his tingling throat and put down his coffee cup.
“Is that the new cane you got?’
“Yes. It’s not finished yet. We need to process the black magnet to fit it here.”
“Student Lee Han. Does this seem like an ancient magic style? Did the principal order it?”
Professor Garcia was puzzled when he saw the half-caduceus-shaped staff.
Most of the current imperial canes were composed of a special material that served as the core of the cane and a stable material that covered the outside of the material.
This was because this structure enabled efficient and stable use of magic.
However, if this method was used to simply weave two materials together without making a separate wick, stability was greatly reduced.
In exchange for output, the wizard must be much more careful.
Moreover, they were using two ridiculous materials: black magnet and the spirit king’s sacred tree…
“Yes.”
Lee Han immediately agreed as he was blaming the black book. Professor Garcia was very upset at the answer and shouted.
“I don’t know why you’re recommending the old style of wand! I’m already using dangerous enough magic, but I’m not asking you to use even more dangerous magic!”
‘It seems right…’
Lee Han, who was thinking to himself, asked quietly.
“Can this change shape?”
“It’s difficult if there’s a powerful high-ranking spirit inside. Student Lee Han. I have to wake him up again and subdue him…” It
took a lot of effort to wake him up, and even more so to subdue him.
Lee Han recalled the sight of King Tujeonseungmok running wild at that time.
He was beaten and turned upside down, but when he regained his strength, he would attack Lee Han again.
‘I guess I’ll just give up and do it.’
“Well.. if there are disadvantages, there are also advantages. I will try to be satisfied with the advantages.”
Lee Han said, trying not to grit his teeth. Professor Garcia nodded as if he understood.
“Then, Professor Verdus… no, please.”
“What?”
“Black magnet processing. Professor Verdus is good at it.”
“Is that possible? Oh, in exchange?”
Professor Verdus was the type of person who wouldn’t do anything he didn’t want to do, even if it meant beating him to death, but surprisingly, he was a person who accepted the exchange docilely.
If you ask Lee Han to process black magnets in return for his labor, he will be able to do it.
“Exchange? Are you going to exchange it for Mule, Student Lee Han?”
“You can either help me with the work or…”
“There’s no need for that. I helped Professor Verdus with something, so Professor Verdus should help me too.”
“…professor…!”
Lee Han was moved by his teacher’s grace.
You’re trying to make Lee Han repay the debt he owes Professor Garcia.
“After the lecture, we’ll come together… No, it’s better if we go alone.”
“Would you like to come with me? I think it would be better to show you the wand right away.”
“Hmm.”
Professor Garcia hesitated.
If he went to see Professor Verdus, he would definitely have a few difficult conversations, but he didn’t want to take his student with him.
-professor. Last time, I went on patrol, graded tests, prepared assignments, made artifacts to fill in with criminals, and managed materials.
Could you take a look at this student’s cane?
-huh? no.
-hey!
…I didn’t want a second-year student to hear this conversation.
But this challenge was not easy. Of course it was expected.
‘Professor Garcia is too kind, so if he meets a villain like Professor Verdus, he could be defrauded.’
If Professor Verdus went to collect the debt he owed and came back to do more favors, Lee Han could have collapsed while holding the back of his head.
Lee Han suddenly remembered Delet, who was jumping up and down and getting angry.
‘…omg. Is this why Direth gets angry every time he sees me?’
Lee Han, who was pondering, shook his head.
He was different from Professor Garcia.
Unlike the good Professor Garcia, he was acting quite selfishly.
‘I’m definitely different.’
“Uh, okay. Student Lee Han. Let’s go together after the lecture. Did anything else happen?”
“Hmm…”
Lee Han recalled the conversation he had with his crazy clone just before coming here.
In addition to the past stories that the skeleton principal had and the scolding he gave for an hour, there were several more stories.
-So, a thousand things. You cast Small World?
-yes. Dendrobium and Basilios…
-Then I can use them now.
-no?
-……
-sorry. But I can’t even use 5-circle magic right now…
-Are you saying you’re going to change impossible magic just because you’re sorry? Hurry up. A thousand things. When are you going to have even the bare minimum of honor as a disciple?
‘I think it will be difficult even when the world ends.’
The crazy alter ego recommended using the black book to write the small world a few more times.
Whether or not a person was vomiting blood, there were often cases where high-level magic was forced into the brain and the brain would bloom on its own.
It was an even more likely story if it was a talent possessed by a boy from the Wardanaz family.
-But if you fail, won’t you go crazy?
-Are you worried about insanity when you haven’t even cast it?
-Oh yes…
After finishing reminiscing, Lee Han made a decision.
I shouldn’t tell Professor Garcia!
‘If you tell me, you might faint from shock.’
“Student Lee Han. Are you currently thinking about cutting out dangerous things so that I don’t have to worry?”
‘omg.’
“No. Why do you think that?”
“A sudden thought occurred to me…”
“That’s not it, I was thinking of something else. Professor, do you know about the principal’s past?”
“There are so many, I don’t know what they are talking about.”
“…When he was alive. Did you know that he was the prince of a small country?”
“You know that.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised.
“Ah. Have you read the history book?”
“No… the principal tells me when he’s bored. Student Lee Han.”
When I thought about it, it was like that.
If you were a student, you would have heard much more bragging from professors as they had more contact with each other.
“Then have you heard this too?”
Lee Han explained the goal his crazy alter ego had in mind.
The goal is to remove poison from the world with the power of magic.
Professor Garcia listened to his student with a serious expression.
“No. I’ve never heard of it.”
“What do you think?”
“Usually wizards like that become magic criminals…”
“……”
“Oh no. I’m sorry. I should have thought about this student before speaking.”
“Thank you for being honest…”
Professor Garcia’s sentiments were not entirely wrong.
Wizards who set an unattainable goal either become Sisyphus forever or go crazy and become magic criminals.
“If it were any other wizard, I would have ignored it, but I’m a little worried because the principal’s alter ego is like that. It’s impossible, so why would they do that?”
“Is it really impossible?”
“Well, Student Lee Han, I don’t know everything about magic. The more I learn about magic, the more I feel that we don’t know anything about magic. It might really be possible. But it’s more about whether it’s possible or impossible. Wouldn’t it be right to worry about whether the method is right or wrong? Student Lee Han?”
“That is correct.”
Lee Han agreed with Professor Garcia.
It is not a question of whether it is possible or impossible, but whether the path is right or wrong.
“Even so, the other person asked me to continue walking. I think the reason I came down was probably because I still have lingering regrets about this.”
“…You should have said that first!”
Professor Garcia shouted angrily.
He didn’t even know if his karma would be pointed out to him, so why was he so calm? Do you mean one conversation?
“Oh no. It’s not confirmed yet. “I think my alter ego might get upset while teaching and give up.”
“I don’t think so…”
In the professor’s eyes, the least likely thing is that my crazy alter ego might give up because he doesn’t like his students. Going back.
No matter how much I thought about it, it wasn’t easy to find a student like Lee Han again.
“Ugh. That’s Okay. Student Lee Han. Even if you try to stop them, they won’t listen. I guess I’ll go and learn magic again.”
“No… no.”
Lee Han was taken aback when the professor he trusted and followed showed a clear look of disappointment.
