Episode 120
“…thank you.”
Lee Han spoke with sincerity.
I had no choice but to be grateful to Wikelinz.
I could have done as much as I wanted to not admit defeat, but I did admit defeat out of consideration for the young freshman.
“Are you interested in the White Tree Knights?”
“yes?”
Lee Han paused.
The White Pine Knights…
‘It seems like a tough job where the only thing left is fame.’
It was a statement that would have made the white pine tree knights angry, but it was not completely wrong.
It was difficult to imagine the hardships he had to go through as he traveled alone around the empire for his honor and beliefs rather than staying at headquarters.
“I’m still not good enough, and I’m even worse as a knight.”
Lee Han politely declined.
But it seemed to have a slightly different meaning to Wikelinz.
The knight of the White Tree Knights spoke in a serious and heavy voice.
“It’s not enough. Of course, I need to learn more now, but if I learn here for just a few years, I will be able to become a better wizard than any other wizard in the White Tree Knights. And no one would expect knightly skills from a magician working in the knighthood, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
“……”
Lee Han was taken aback when the other person suggested it more seriously than he thought, rather than just saying it out of courtesy.
uh…
Huh?
“Besides… your skills as a knight are not lacking. As a wizard, that’s more than enough. “Other knights will be ashamed.”
“ruler. Calm down. Mr. Wikelinz.”
Professor Ingalldel stopped Wikelinz.
“Aren’t you still a freshman? “It is too early to decide on the future.”
Lee Han was moved by Professor Ingalldell’s words.
And then I came to my senses.
‘No. That person brought it here in the first place.’
“That is correct. “I got too excited and got too greedy.”
“What are you saying? “I’m just glad that you think favorably of my students.”
While Professor Ingalldel and Wikelinz were having a warm conversation, knights from the Knights of the White Tree, who had finished a fight elsewhere, walked by.
“Are you finished? Wikelinz? How was it?”
“Mr. Wikelinz. “You probably weren’t too harsh on the students, right?”
“I lost.”
“yes!?”
Wikelinz kindly informed the knights who arrived late in detail about what had happened.
Whenever he pointed at Lee Han with his hand and said something, the knights looked at him with admiration and awe, and Lee Han felt in danger.
‘this…’
Lee Han sneakily dodged behind Giselle. Giselle took a step forward with a very unpleasant expression.
“Everyone was great.”
Professor Ingalldel praised the three.
Not only Lee Han but the other two had a really hard time.
While the spell was being cast, he continued to struggle by tying Wikelinz’s ankles.
“Full score. “It wasn’t a fight I wanted to win, but I never thought I would win like this.”
‘oh.’
Only then did Lee Han remember that the goal of this paper test was not victory.
Wikelinz attacked so fiercely that I forgot about it for a moment.
“But I think that the unexpectedness shown by students like this is the greatest joy a teacher can feel. “Thank you all for giving me the best joy.”
“no!”
Dergyu was so moved that he shouted, but Lee Han and Giselle were a bit perplexed.
‘No matter how much I think about the White Tree Knights…’
‘Don’t you know moderation?’
From the moment Professor Ingalldel brought in the Cypress Knights and put them on him, Professor Ingalldel said, ‘No matter what, that’s a bit too much.’
“The knights of the White Tree Knights also said they were very satisfied with the sparring. “He said he would definitely tell other colleagues what happened today.”
“?”
“He asked me to call him again the next time I get a chance like this, so he wasn’t just saying it out of politeness, he was truly satisfied.”
“…yes. “I think so.”
Lee Han became anxious for no reason.
This means you won’t have to fight the Knight Commander Baekyangmok during the midterm exam, right?
* * *
“……”
“Lee Han?”
Durgyu, who was walking with Lee Han after the lecture, looked puzzled when his friend stopped walking.
“Why are you doing that? What happened… are you okay?!”
dump-
Lee Han knelt down.
It was because of the aftereffects of the <Piblikus’ Great and Enormous Magic Missile> used earlier.
‘…Ugh.’

Lee Han wanted to grab the collar of the man named Piblicus who placed this magic in the first circle.
How can this be circle 1?
Instead of giving up on firing, he compresses a huge amount of magic power in front of him, induces instability, and explodes.
The only principle was to collect magical power, but its destructive power and danger exceeded expectations.
It was like throwing a bomb right in front of the wizard and detonating it…
There was only one safety device for this magic.
When magical power exploded, the wizard used all his strength to push the magical energy to the other side.
What if control fails?
Then he just got hit too. It was truly crazy magic.
‘Blood wizards… must be banned in the empire.’
Even though I thought I had managed to control my magic and avoid the impact, my vision was shaken and I felt dizzy, as if something had entered.
Still, thanks to this, I was able to clearly see what kind of people the blood wizards were.
It’s like they’re taking out all the safety devices for the sake of efficiency!
Lee Han pledged to change the name of <Piblicus’ Great and Enormous Magic Missile> to <Piblicus’ Insane Magical Explosion>.
“Lee Han! “You can’t die!”
“Durgyu… It’s not that bad, so don’t make a fuss.”
Lee Han spoke to Dergyu who was chatting next to him.
It seemed like Dergyu had misunderstood something, but it wasn’t to that extent.
I was more worried about something else than that.
“Durgyu.”
“Why are you doing that?! “If you need anything, let me know!”
“I don’t want the White Tiger Tower guys to notice my condition…so keep your voice down.”
“……”
Dergyu was speechless.
It was the kind of solemn display that a knight commander on a battlefield would show.
‘You’re a first year student…!’
But Dergyu did as Lee Han told him.
In Dergyu’s opinion, it was not a good idea to show Lee Han’s weakened side to his White Tiger Top friends.
“wait. Lee Han. “I’ll take you to the healing room.”
Dergyu supported Lee Han and walked away. One of White Tiger Tower’s friends looked at the two and asked curiously.
“what’s the matter?”
“…training!”
“Yeah, really?”
Dergyu desperately took Lee Han to the healing room.
* * *
“It’s a symptom of a mild mana concussion. “What kind of crazy professor set off magic explosions around first-year students?”
When Lee Han opened his eyes, he heard a voice in his ear.
This was a conversation between Dergyu and the owner of the healing room.
“I… I can’t tell you. sorry.”
“Are you afraid the professor will retaliate? what the. I don’t know why the rest of the Empire fears us. “We should be more afraid of wizards.”
‘Now that I think about it, this is my first time in a healing room.’
Since there were so many injuries, the magic school also had a place like a nurse’s office.
The last time I collapsed in a bloody fight with anti-magicists, I didn’t have to go to the healing room thanks to the skeleton headmaster personally taking me…
I happened to come here today.
It was more ordinary than I thought.
Beds are arranged in a neat and clean white landscape, and the person in charge of the healing room is talking next to the book-shaped dergyu…
‘…?’
Lee Han blinked.
Looking again, the owner of the healing room was in the form of a book. The book fluttering in the air spoke to Durgyu.
“I suffered from concussion symptoms because I experienced a magical explosion at close range while I was exhausted. “She’s on the mend, so she’ll be fine.”
“thank you! I really… I was fine for a while after the explosion went off, but then I suddenly collapsed… so I thought there was a big problem with my magic power.”
The book in the healing room was quite taken aback by Durgyu’s words.
“You were okay for a while after the explosion?”
“yes.”
“What kind of ignorance… Please don’t do that again in the future.”
There was only one reason why he seemed fine even after a magic explosion exploded nearby.
I just endured it with my mental strength.
After hearing the explanation, Dergyu was also taken aback.
“It makes no sense. The reason why Lee Han endured so terribly… um. no.”
“……”
When I thought about it, Lee Han was a person who could do that. Lee Han felt a little betrayed by Dergyu.
“Thank you for treating me.”
As I cleared my throat and opened my mouth, a book came fluttering towards me. Lee Han hesitated because he didn’t know how to call the other person.
“I am the devil of the healing room.”
“…yes?”
“I don’t think you know what to call me.”
“Ah… Is that so?”
Lee Han was not surprised when the talking book revealed itself to be the devil.
Even if I was surprised, I could now speak calmly with a calm expression. The magic school is where Lee Han grew up.
“What. “It’s not fun… The other freshmen are shocked.”
“I will guess. “The demon in the healing room was probably captured by the principal and forced to work here.”
“!!!”
The talking book was startling.
How did know!?
“That’s amazing! “Isn’t that usually a smart thing?”
“That is an overstatement.”
Lee Han waved his hand.
It was a guess that anyone who had met the skeleton principal a few times could make.
Of course, Dergyu, who did not know the circumstances, was very impressed.
“right. “I was summoned by Gonadaltes and captured, so I am working here in the form of a book.”
There was no sense of dissatisfaction in the voice of the speaking book. Dergyu asked after seeing that.
“From what you’re saying, are you satisfied with working here?”
“no?”
“yes? however…”
“Are you sure that just because I’m making my voice sound happy, you don’t have any complaints?”
Lee Han intervened in the conversation between the two.
I couldn’t just watch it quietly.
“Probably, if you behave insincerely, the principal will punish you.”
“That’s amazing!”
The demon and talking book in the healing room was surprised again.
For a freshman, he understood my situation very well.
Considering Gonadaltes’ eccentric personality, there was a high probability that the bookshelf would be torn off if he grumbled in the healing room.
“You’re so smart… Wait. “You’re probably not Gonadaltes transformed…”
The talking book trailed off as if suspicious. And then she immediately used magic.
“…Magic power detected!”
The talking book was surprised by the enormous magical power felt from Lee Han.
“Gonadaltes! you really!”
“no.”
“Lee Han just has a lot of magical power!”
Thanks to Durgyu’s desperate efforts to persuade him, the talking book stopped doubting him.
I used all kinds of confirmation and detection magic several more times after that, but…
“He kept moving with me. Definitely not the principal.”
“good. Trust me. But new student. Remember, Gonadaltes can change your friend in the split second you look away.”
“……”
Durgyu thought the talking book was joking.
But Lee Han took it seriously.
‘I really need to be careful.’
“Well, if it were Gonadaltes, his identity would have been revealed the moment I used magic. I’m not one to sit still… New student. I was sorry. “I apologize.”
“it’s okay.”
Lee Han stood up from his seat.
Now that my body has recovered thanks to the healing magic of the talking book, it is time to head out.
“for a moment. “Take this.”
The talking book handed a small leather pouch to Lee Han, who was about to leave.
“What is this?”
“It’s a simple cure.”
“Ah… isn’t everything better?”
Lee Han was surprised.
My physical condition seemed to be completely fine, but was there still anything left?
“no. “It’s just a gift for me to come visit often.”
“……”
Lee Han felt both gratitude and discomfort.
