【89】88.
Kiran was excited and flew through the forest.
This evil fairy had fun teasing the students.
[ha ha ha! fool! Would I be caught by something like that?]
Kiran, who was irritating another first year, hummed.
[Which fool should we aim at this time?]
Woe!
[…] … ?]
A net flew in in an instant and caught Kiran.
Kiran, who was caught in the flimsy sleeping net in the blink of an eye, had a blank expression on his face.
[Huh?]
Kiran, who made eye contact with Leo, looked horrified.
“I sent you here to be quiet. Do you think I sent you here to cause trouble?”
[Oh, oh! It’s a misunderstanding! There’s a reason why I’m like this… … Kueh!]
Leo, holding Kiran, asked.
“What is the reason?”
[I was investigating something strange happened on this island!]
“what?”
Leo looked surprised.
That night.
After the sun set, Leo asked while eating fruit he had found all over the island.
“So, what you’re saying is that the phantom beasts on the Island of Phantom Beasts have become violent and they have asked you to interrogate them to investigate?”
[that’s right.]
“For that reason, it seemed like you were making fun of the Lumern students?”
Although he lost his powers as a Fairy Prince, Kiran is a fairy.
In addition, he had regained some of his strength by gaining a pair of wings.
It is a magic trick that not only first graders but also second graders cannot find.
However, the day after Kiran came to the island of phantom beasts, rumors about fairies spread.
[that!]
“that?”
[Because the reactions of the students who found this body and made a fuss were fun!]
“In the end, you’re saying you forgot your original purpose and were just playing around, right?”
Leo, who had tied Kiran to a vine and hung him upside down over a bonfire, was lost in thought.
‘Something strange happened on the Island of Phantom Beasts?’
Currently, this island is like Pirina’s territory.
There is no way we could not have noticed the strange thing that happened on the island.
“Why did Mr. Pirina send you away?”
[That Phoenix called Pirina is not currently on this island! Release me! Release me!]
Kiran, who was struggling, spoke urgently.
“Not on the island?”
[okay! We haven’t been there since you sent us here three days ago! In the letter a few days ago, he said he would return to his ally for a while… … ! Smash!]
Hwareuk-!
Kiran’s body caught fire.
Kiran, who barely escaped, rolled around on the floor to put out the fire on his body.
“How did you know that something strange had happened in the forest?”
[Fiora said that?]
“Fiora?”
Leo stroked his chin.
Fiora, Pirina’s daughter, is definitely the second-ranked phantom beast on this island of phantom beasts.
Even though he was still young and weak, he was able to fully sense the changes that had occurred in the forest.
‘Is it really a coincidence that the incident occurred while Pirina was in the middle of the title?’
Leo narrowed his eyes and stood up.
‘First I have to find Fiora.’
It would be simplest to do a summoning, but I am currently working on a practical lesson.
It was clear that if you used spiritual power in a situation where no one was using a summoning spell, you would be caught right away.
‘It would be bothersome if Fiora’s identity was discovered.’
Currently, in Lumern, the only people who know that Leo is a contractor for Phoenix are Summoning Professor Yura and Principal Calian.
Leo concentrated his mind and called Fiora.
‘Fiora.’
I was able to have a conversation with the high-ranking Hwansu even though I was far away.
This is because they are spiritually connected as they are pledgers.
However, Fiora did not respond to Leo’s call.
‘Fiora? ‘Answer me when you hear me.’
“What is this guy doing now that he’s not answering?”
Leo narrowed his eyebrows at Fiora’s silent response.
Kiran, who flew next to Leo, put his clasped hands on the back of his head and said.
[Aren’t you so distracted that you don’t even know what’s being called?]
“… … .”

It’s a fairly plausible story.
Even though she pretended to be polite, Fiora was very curious as she was a very curious child.
“… … “The pledgers are all children.”
[As a child too.]
Leo sighed at Kiran’s grunting words and concentrated his mind.
And then he walked in the direction where he could feel Fiora’s power.
‘I have no choice but to go find it in person.’
***
The direction where Fiora’s power was felt was towards the western end.
‘Where we are now is on the east side of the island, so it’s on the opposite side.’
Leo sighed and went deeper into the forest.
There, I was able to meet students who were experiencing the wilderness.
In conclusion, the Summoning Department students were not able to adapt to the wild at all.
There were many instances of people screaming that bugs had appeared or collapsing with foam in their mouths after eating poisonous mushrooms by mistake.
Even Eliza, the ace of the summoning department, could not adapt properly.
‘What are you planning to do starting tomorrow?’
Leo clicked his tongue as he looked at the students who were struggling even though the real hardships had not even begun.
Of course, not all students were like that.
“You’re busy late at night, Plov.”
“Wareden, a huge student who was standing in front of the bonfire with his arms crossed and his eyes closed, said.
I met him by chance while moving around after killing him.
Still, Warrenden spoke without even opening his eyes.
“I’m busy with work.”
Leo shrugged his shoulders calmly.
At those words, Warrenden opened his eyes and looked up the tree.
Among the knight departments, there are few students with a similar physique to Warrenden.
On the outside, it may seem like he would fight a very tough battle, but Waredon was actually a very brainy student.
‘Your written exam score for general subjects other than your major was 2nd overall, right?’
First place was Chloe.
In addition, his knowledge of magic was more extensive than that of most magic students.
‘Even the sense of combining magic with spirit magic. It’s definitely amazing.’
“I’m looking forward to this battle royale. Plov.”
“What do you mean?”
“It means I will take you down.”
Leo chuckled at Wareden’s grave declaration of war.
“I’ll be looking forward to it.”
Warrenden closed his eyes after hearing the answer.
Leo kicked off the tree branch and ran out.
Although he could not use auras, he quickly ran through the forest using his overwhelming physical ability.
I encountered wild phantom beasts a few times along the way, but they never attacked me.
This is because Kiran was on Leo’s shoulder.
Basically, phantom beasts had a strong tendency not to attack phantom beasts that were stronger than them.
Leo, crossing the forest at high speed, was able to reach the western end.
To the west of Hwansu Island was a gravel field.
[Wow, is it pretty?]
Kiran was amazed by the beautiful lake scenery with the moon and stars shining through.
Leo found Fiora squatting by the water’s edge, rummaging around for something.
Slap-!
Fiora picked up a small pebble from the water and stood up.
And he let out an exclamation as he illuminated the stone in his hand in the moonlight.
It was a magic stone in the form of a transparent crystal.
“Pretty, pretty!”
Fiora was looking around at the magic stone with sparkling eyes! And put the magic stone in his mouth.
Then he rolled it in his mouth like a candy and hummed, then squatted down again and started looking for the magic stone.
“… … What are you doing?”
“yes? Deo, yekin eocheon ieyeheung.”
“Eat everything in your mouth and speak.”
Fiora chewed the magic stone in her mouth and swallowed it, then asked.
“Leo, what’s going on here?”
“Before anything happened… … “Have you been finding and eating all the magic stones in this gravel field?”
This was originally an area off-limits to students.
This is because this gravel field was a place where magical stones were naturally created.
There is an area where magic stones occur in large quantities around the ecosystem of phantom beasts and spirits.
The power they give off seeps into the floor and gathers in a specific place, where magic stones are naturally generated in large quantities.
Young spirits and phantom beasts absorb the magic stone and use it as a growth engine.
Hwansu Island is a place where this gravel field plays just that role.
That’s why entry was blocked for fear that students would collect magic stones.
But Fiora had found all the magic stones and was eating them.
Fiora suddenly turned her head and said.
“You usually eat a lot when you’re young.”
[High-ranking phantom beasts like us don’t need magic stones to grow.]
As the saying goes, magic stones are not of much help to a high-ranking phantom beast like Phoenix.
It can be a delicious delicacy.
Of course, it was never a good thing to eat all the magic stones that the phantom beasts in the area he controlled had to eat.
“You couldn’t have driven out all the other phantom beasts and spirits and had the magic stone all to yourself, right?”
Although his strength was still weak, it was clear that other phantom beasts and spirits would be scared and not approach him if they felt the Phoenix’s energy.
“I didn’t go that far. “I tried to share it with everyone!”
Fiora protested.
[If you threaten with the power of the phoenix, there is no way you can share food comfortably. This chick… … ! no! Pig!]
“Who says I’m a pig!”
[joy! It’s still a sloppy attack!]
When Fiora got angry and threw a pebble, Kiran snorted and dodged it.
“Both of you are noisy. “Fiora, something happened on your island and I told Kiran to search the eastern area.”
“Oops!”
Fiora, who had forgotten that fact because she was busy eating magic stones during the search, was startled.
[hey! Did you actually forget about the topic you spoke to me with a very serious face?]
Fiora, who was at fault, was helpless and unable to respond.
[Ah? This isn’t the level of a chick’s memory! yes?]
“I’m sorry.”
Kiran, who thought he had discovered her weakness, slapped Fiora’s head with an arrogant look.
[Forgive me! Instead, from now on, I will call this person a prince and treat him with respect… … Wow!]
“You also forgot to research and were playing pranks on the students.”
Leo said, hitting Kiran with his palm.
“So, what exactly happened?”
“I’m not sure about that. However, I can faintly feel a very unpleasant energy on the island.”
‘Unpleasant energy?’
Leo narrowed his eyebrows.
If the Phoenix, which has the power of purification, felt unpleasant, it was clearly an unclean power.
‘During the midterm exam, I had a spell on the Summoning Department in Tartarus. Could it be related to that?’
That was the moment Leo thought about it.
Gooooo-!
Suddenly, water fog began to spread.
Leo, who saw this, hurriedly took Fiora and Kiran out of the gravel field and hid behind a tree.
It was not a naturally occurring water fog.
Moreover, the energy felt in the water mist was one that Leo also knew.
The dark magic I felt during the mid-term practical exam for the Department of Summoning.
‘The magician at that time.’
Leo widened his eyes.
Slap-
The magician appeared on the gravel field and waved his hand.
Ugh-!
The magic stones all over the gravel field responded.
The magician stopped at the ridiculously low number of magic stones.
“what? Why is the number of magic stones limited to this?”
[Because the pig ate it all.]
At Kiran’s words, Fiora opened her ax eyes and strangled Kiran.
“Stop fighting and get ready.”
Leo unleashed his spiritual power.
The use of spiritual power was prohibited during the weekend, but now was not the time to discuss that.
“come!”
Jiing-!
A huge summoning circle was created on the floor where Leo was.
Leo jumped high.
Goooooo-! Kaduk!
The huge demon beast opened its mouth and swallowed the place where Leo was.
Whirling-! widely-!
Leo landed on the ground and saw the magician.
“It seems you have a deep connection with us, Leo Plov.”
Leo smiled a murderous smile at the cold magician’s words.
“It’s a very shitty relationship from my past life.”
