Episode 001
I will never go to graduate school again.
Now I will live for myself!
…After graduating from graduate school, which was difficult, Korean Lee Han made that promise.
I won’t even go anywhere where ‘Hak’ goes.
But things in the world did not go as planned.
After Lee Han died in an unfortunate accident, he was reborn in the Wardanaz family, a wizard family from another world.
Then 15 years.
Today was the day Lee Han entered Einrogard, the best magic school in the empire.
* * *
Lee Han was reborn into the Wardanaz family.
At first I was confused, then I was amazed, and then I accepted it.
Fortunately, the Wardanaz family was a very powerful wizard family in the empire.
Lee Han’s father, the head of the family, was a great person who was even close to the emperor, and the family mansion was clearly wealthy.
At this point, Lee Han couldn’t help but think like this.
-Am I receiving compensation for going to graduate school in my past life?
A life where you can play and eat comfortably for the rest of your life without any hardships.
… was, of course, an illusion.
The Wardanaz family was more formidable than expected.
-Ihan Wardanaz.
-yes. The head of the family.
-What are you aiming for?
-……
‘Can I answer that my life is a life of playing and eating?’
Lee Han was slightly worried.
This didn’t seem like a very good answer.
-Did I ask a useless question? Well, I guess the answer is fixed.
-yes?
-You too must feel your talent yourself.
-yes?
-You know the rules of the Wardanaz family. The eldest son inherits everything in the family.
-yes?????
The last words were quite shocking.
Inheriting everything?
So does that mean that the second child and younger children will not receive a single penny?
-Matriarch. Does that mean I won’t receive anything then?
-no. Ihan Wardanaz.
‘Thank goodness.’
-The family will give you every opportunity. If you want to become a knight, we will find the best knights for you, and if you want to become a bureaucrat, we will give you the opportunity to learn from the imperial chancellor. If you want to become a merchant, we will give you the opportunity to work for the best merchant in the empire. As long as you are in the family, I will give you every opportunity you want!
‘…Can’t you just give it to me in money?’
Even if I were to convert what I just said into money, the value would be enormous…
The family rules were very unreasonable.
‘shit. ‘If I had been born earlier, I would have been able to make a living.’
Lee Han regretted his laziness as the third child of his family.
The first step is to inherit everything in the family.
Below that, you had to eat and live on your own.
Thanks to this, Lee Han had to think deeply about what he should do to eat well and live well from a young age.
Bureaucrats, merchants, knights, adventurers…
The good news was that the family not only passed on property but also provided support.
The children of the head of the family had many opportunities to learn and achieve what they wanted.
In the end, Lee Han chose a career as a wizard.
-I thought so.
Lee Han’s father, the head of the family, was very satisfied.
-You must have sensed your talent too, right?
-…??
‘I chose the wizard because he was the most stable…?’
In fact, being a wizard was a very safe profession.
A job that is respected by everyone in the empire and is not at all shameful for a nobleman to have.
If you have the skills, it’s a job you can’t go anywhere without.
The knights needed wizards, the adventurer guild needed wizards, and the emperor’s officials also needed wizards…
-Go to Einrogard. There, grow by encountering numerous wizard seeds. That experience will complete you.
Einrogard is the best magic school among the imperial magic schools.
As it was the most traditional and powerful magic school, the power of its name was great.
Just by entering Einroguard and graduating safely, you are guaranteed a minimum level of fame.
Of course, no one was satisfied with just that.
Achieve outstanding achievements in school, get noticed by a professor and receive a letter of recommendation, or build connections with other students…
As Einrogard was the best magic school in the empire, it was also the best networking training center in the empire.
Even Lee Han, who had vowed never to go to an unreasonable place like graduate school again, had no choice but to quietly go in.

-yes. I will do that.
‘okay. If you just persevere and graduate… think of it as an investment for the future.’
* * *
The old knight, Allarlong, politely saluted Lee Han.
“Ihan Wardanaz.”
“You had a hard time escorting me here.”
“It wasn’t a big deal.”
Alarrong was a knight of the Wardanaz family.
Originally, he didn’t have to personally escort Lee Han, but he volunteered to personally escort Lee Han from the capital to Einrogard.
It was because of his friendship with Lee Han.
“I never thought I would come this far just because I learned from you…”
“It’s not because Lee Han learned swordsmanship from me, but I came forward to prevent others from disrespecting the name of the Wodanaz family.”
“okay. Whatever the reason.”
Allarlong spoke sternly, but Lee Han laughed. He knew Alarrong’s personality.
He was strict and serious, but he had a deep heart. The reason he brought it up himself was probably because he was worried about Lee Han.
When Lee Han laughed, Allarlong cleared his throat once in embarrassment.
“Hmm. To be honest, I was happy when Lee Han asked me to teach him swordsmanship.”
The Wardanaz family is a family of wizards.
There were not many people who wanted to learn swordsmanship.
Nevertheless, there were two reasons why Lee Han learned it.
One was the idea that if I learned something, I would have something to use later.
In particular, isn’t swordsmanship essential for self-defense?
second is…
It was because I was so bored.
Surprisingly, the Wardanaz family did not teach any magic at all.
-You cannot learn magic before you are fifteen because it is dangerous!
In this world, people were roughly treated as adults when they were around 15 years old.
Magic is the most difficult and dangerous of all studies.
I also understood that I couldn’t deal with it until I became an adult.
Of course, it was quite unfair for Lee Han, who was mentally older, but…
“Look. “Other noble children also brought bodyguards so as not to embarrass the family.”
“That… seems a bit excessive?”
Lee Han was dumbfounded when he saw the parade of carriages that filled the Imperial Boulevard.
Even so, bringing ten wagons and dozens of cavalry was a bit excessive.
The dignity of a noble is ‘who has more luxury’, so even when going out, they go extravagantly extravagant, but I never thought they would do something like that just to take a kid who is starting school.
And above all…
“In the first place, you can’t bring all the guards, servants, servants, and slaves in, right?”
“yes.”
Einrogard is a magic school with a long tradition.
One of those traditions was ‘equality’.
Both royal family members and slaves can enter, but they must enter with only their bare bodies.
Of course, even if I brought that many people with me, I had to go in alone.
“There will probably be a few people waiting in the surrounding villages.”
“…You’re going that far?”
Lee Han asked with a tired expression.
It’s been 15 years since I was reincarnated here, but there are still many parts of the nobles’ way of thinking that are difficult to understand.
If you enter that huge magic school, you might come out once a month or not, but in preparation for that, you settle down in the surrounding village and wait.
“I asked you earlier, but they said they had already purchased some buildings. “In nearby villages, there are buildings that have been sold like that for generations.”
“I’m done with that. kyung.”
“We have already purchased a small mansion…?”
“……”
Lee Han cursed inwardly.
If you have that kind of money, you can just save it and give it to yourself later!
It’s okay to spend money on such unnecessary luxury, but it’s not okay to give money to Lee Han.
The family’s laws were unreasonable.
“The capital is far away. Lee Han. “If you’re a noble, you have to be prepared for anything.”
“okay. “I feel reassured.”
Lee Han rode on a horse.
There were people pulling carriages, but Lee Han thought it would be easier to just ride a horse and enter through the main gate.
‘I’ll wait until all the carriages pass and then the sun will set.’
“Then Sir. “Thank you for taking me with you again.”
“no. Lee Han. It was an honor to serve you.”
Allarlong was sincere.
Among the family bloodlines, Allarlong’s favorite was Lee Han.
A person who knows sincerity and humility.
“The head of the family also praised Lee Han’s talent.”
“I’m not going to make you feel better by making up words that don’t exist. Anyway, thank you.”
“No, really…”
* * *
The magic school, Einrogard, was located far from the capital where the imperial palace was located.
According to rumors, it was decided this way while searching for a place on land full of magical energy.
True to the rumor, the surrounding scenery had a strong feeling of Mother Nature.
Behind the school, there was a huge mountain range with no end in sight, and a wide and long river was winding along the side…
When I closed my eyes, the infinite mana of nature felt like air.
“This… this is wrong.”
“??”
Lee Han looked at him quizzically when the boy next to him spoke to him.
Here, you could tell your identity just by looking at your clothes.
A robe richly embroidered with silk and gold thread. Hands and face without calluses.
It was clear that he was from a noble family.
‘Should I call someone?’
His face turned pale and he was shaking, making me think there was some problem.
Are you having a problem with magic?
“what’s the matter. Are you okay?”
“I… I…”
“okay. what is the problem?”
“If I don’t have a servant… I can’t sleep…”
“……”
Lee Han tried to hit him, but ended up giving up.
‘This bastard…’
It was such a trivial reason that I felt sorry for worrying about it just now.
But to the boy it seemed a very serious matter.
“It’s ridiculous to say you can’t bring servants. Servants are like my hands and feet. “Isn’t he like cutting off my hands and feet and asking me to come in?”
“Right. “It’s logical.”
Lee Han heard it roughly and blurted it out.
However, the boy seemed to be encouraged by Lee Han’s vague words.
“yes? “I have to go and protest.”
“…What are you planning to protest?”
“You should be able to bring servants! “This is unfair in the name of the family!”
“okay. “Try hard.”
It seemed unlikely that a tradition that had been maintained for over a thousand years would be broken because of just one boy, but Lee Han cheered.
Firstly, because it was none of my business, and secondly, because I was curious.
How will the wizards of Einrogard respond to this?
The boy ran away and soon came back with a blank expression.
“?”
“I reflect, I reflect, I reflect…”
“…!!!”
Lee Han was astonished.
‘Mental magic!’
The boy was muttering in disgust, so it was clear that he had been under some sort of spell of charm or domination.
The magic itself wasn’t surprising. Because it was a magic that Lee Han had also heard of.
What was surprising was the wizards at this school who casually used such things against children from noble families.
‘…It wouldn’t be real to bury someone in the mountain behind even if they die.’
Lee Han felt uneasy because of the rumors he heard before coming.
-Welcome everyone to Einrogard.
It wasn’t a loud voice, but a voice that seemed to be shooting directly into everyone’s brains.
bang!
And at the same time, the main gate of Einrogard opened.
-Come in. You iron heads!
The new freshmen all frowned.
It wasn’t because of the verbal abuse.
As they all had magical talent, they felt an enormous amount of magical pressure due to the magic cast on Einroguard.
Is this how you feel when you try to look at the sun with the naked eye?
Is this what it would feel like to try to defeat a giant with your bare hands?
Hee hee hee!
I heard a horse neighing.
It seemed that among those who brought the carriage here, there was someone who wanted to ride in the carriage.
-And I told you to come naked…
The carriage suddenly disappeared along with the voice.
The girl from a noble family who was sitting in the carriage fell with a scream.
More than ten carriages disappeared and the screams of boys and girls were heard.
-Okay. You iron heads! Even if you don’t want to follow the rules anyway, this school will make you do so.
“……”
Some quick-witted people like Lee Han had stiff expressions, as if they had realized that this school was as scary as it was rumored to be.
-Move your butt! Entrance! Entrance!! Entrance!!!!
“……”
“……”
* * *
Lee Han originally had a habit of observing. That habit became even worse after coming to this world.
No matter what I saw, it was new and amazing, so it was bound to be fun to observe.
And now, there were easily over a hundred boys and girls gathered here.
Their attire was diverse, including imperial family, nobles, knights, priests, merchants, adventurers, and beggars.
And those boys and girls were already forming groups of threes and threes.
Networking was essential as I continued my long school life.
“Ihan of the Wardanaz family?”
“that’s right. “There may not be a family crest, but I managed to find it.”
In keeping with the tradition of equality, wearing family emblems on clothes was prohibited.
Of course, there was still a way to find out.
Right away, Lee Han recognized several members of the royal family and nobles whom he had seen before.
“I am Yoner. “It’s Joner Makin.”
Bright red hair that was slightly curly and reached down to her shoulders. There, a girl with gently curved eyes stood in front of her.
Makin family.
The Makin family was also a fairly famous wizard family in the empire.
The difference is that the Makin family participates more actively in imperial politics?
In comparison, the Wardanaz family was closer to playing separately.
There were many cases where the head of the family would not come out even at the emperor’s request and would stay away to study magic…
“nice to meet you. Yoner. “What’s going on?”
“His Royal Highness wants to see you.”
Makin pointed behind him.
The most flashily dressed boy among those here was waving at Lee Han.
