Episode 173
“Follow me!”
“what?!”
“You can’t lose to Wodanaz! Are you planning on losing in horseback riding?!”
“but…”
One of the students hesitated.
If he ran like that right now, it would be impossible to catch up.
Horses are living creatures.
If you run like that, you’ll get tired quickly…
“Eight! Goes!”
“me too!”
But in the end, one by one, the students all took up whips and started driving the horses.
No matter which top student he was, he basically had great pride when it came to speaking.
Whether you are from a noble family, a knight family, or a merchant guild, you have never heard of someone not being able to ride a horse.
and…
‘There must be a reason why Wardanaz runs like that!’
‘Wardanaz could possibly go on a rampage like that without any thought?’
The students unconsciously believed Lee Han.
Could it be that Lee Han went on a rampage like that without any countermeasures?
Maybe there is a way.
If they follow that method…
The students in the lead group started running like crazy.
Nilia also became anxious after seeing her friends leave and looked around.
“?”
Surprisingly, Joner stayed still.
“Yoner? what’s the matter? are you okay?”
Yoner was sitting on his chestnut horse with a very worried expression on his face. Neilia didn’t understand.
“Let’s chase after them now! If you chase after me now, I’ll catch up with you in no time! “I can snare other guys and make them fall!”
Nilya tried to break the rule calmly, but Yoner did not point it out.
It was because I had just seen something even more embarrassing.
“That’s not it…”
Joner wondered how to explain this. The gryphon that transformed into a horse ignored Lee Han’s orders and ran wild!
* * *
‘Am I paying the price for trusting monsters?’
The griffon must have sensed Lee Han’s distrust and snorted fiercely. Lee Han soothed.
“It’s a misunderstanding. ruler. Try slowing down. “I’m afraid you’ll get tired.”
Of course, Lee Han planned to go down and hit the griffon the moment it slowed down.
Although Gryphon did not notice such dark feelings, another part stimulated Gryphon’s pride.
I never get tired!
-Puh hee hee!
The griffon ran even further. It seemed like he was resentful of running because he had not been able to run for several years.
‘From now on, I will never trust transformed monsters.’
Lee Han held the griffon tightly. It was running so fast that even Lee Han could no longer let down his guard.
If you are unlucky, the owner will also drop you!
Caw!
A fierce-looking new monster that looked like a cross between a crane and a chicken came down from the nearby tree.
‘Nachaljo!’
Lee Han was nervous at the appearance of a fairly aggressive new monster.
However, the griffon snorted once and accelerated further.
bang!
The Rakshasa bird tried to follow as it flew, but it was impossible.
As the griffon widened its distance, the Raksha bird that was following it gasped and flew away as if it had given up.
“……”
The monster that appeared was not just a Rakshajo.
A rock on the side of the road suddenly rose up and swung menacingly.
The griffon ignored it and ran.
Suddenly, the bridge over the river disappeared along with smoke.
The griffon ignored it and jumped over it.
A fog so thick that it was impossible to see ahead blocked the road.
Gryphon ignored it and broke through.
“…Do whatever you want.”
Lee Han gave up.
At this point, I was starting to wonder how far it would go.
* * *
Perse, a third year student at Blue Dragon Tower, sighed with a worried expression.
Then my friend asked.
“What’s wrong, Perse?”
“All of our attackers are too slow.”

“don’t worry. Once you get used to it, your horses will also speed up. “You have to give the horses time to gain weight.”
“It’s not just about the horses. “The rider is also a problem.”
Perse spoke firmly.
In a fierce game where many players compete fiercely, speed is not simply determined by the horse’s physical strength.
Rather, the rider’s courage and skills played a greater role.
Even if there are enemies running at you with sticks, you must have the spirit to drive the horse with the readiness to die to keep the speed…
Dag dag dag dag dag dag dag dag dag dag dag dag dag dag dauk!!!
“……”
“……”
The horse was running so fast that the wind blew away both of their hats.
He ran so fast that the monsters blocking his path hurriedly got out of the way.
“Bang, what just happened? You’re a student, right? “You were a student, right?”
“Freshman… Looks like a freshman? New students exam…”
“That’s it! “That’s it!”
Perse shouted with shining eyes.
He has the guts to drive like a madman regardless of whether there is a monster in front of him or not.
That was the spirit a striker should have.
“He’s a freshman, Perse…”
“There’s next year! “You can call me next year!”
“There’s no guarantee that he’s interested in the hardball club.”
“Don’t worry about that.”
“?”
“There’s no way you wouldn’t be interested in hardball when you have that kind of skill!”

The phone league has finally stopped.
-Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuux!!
“Do you feel refreshed?”
Vonrig nodded. Then he shook off the sweat and tilted his head toward the stream to quench his throat.
‘You’ve come really far.’
Lee Han checked his surroundings.
I knew that the magic school grounds were vast beyond imagination, but I never thought it would come this far.
I ran like crazy along the bottom of the mountain range.
What unfolded before Lee Han’s eyes was a desert.
“…?”
Why is there a desert on the school grounds?
-Puh hee hing.
After drinking all the water, Vonrig said let’s go.
“Phone League.”
– Fuheung?
“If you don’t return within the time limit, I will be disappointed in you.”
-……
Ponrig, who ran happily, looked around as if he had come to his senses from the coolness of Lee Han’s words.
Of course, even if I looked around, there was no way I could tell this area was a phone league. Ponrig began to sweat.
…You’ll be able to get back in time, right?
“let’s go. Phone league.”
Ponrig started running towards full power. He was moving faster than when he came earlier.
Lee Han kept his body firmly fixed and stared ahead.
“…?”
Several students were seen sprawled out on the roadside.
‘what?’
At first, I thought he had been hit by a monster, but he seemed completely fine for that.
It was clear that he just got tired and left.
‘I don’t understand.’
It is said that Lee Han-ya, Ponrigg, was dragged in because he did not listen to his orders and went on a rampage, but there is no way the other students would have done that.
It was clear that they ran purely out of greed and became exhausted.
Lee Han looked at his friends with pity.
‘It’s something that can’t be helped. Today’s incident must have been a lesson.’
* * *
“…perfect score.”
“thank you.”
“…why?”
Professor Lightning Walk couldn’t hold back and asked.
1st place receives full score.
This was natural. Professor Lightning Walk also had no intention of saying anything about this.
However, it was a slightly different story for the first place student to travel three times the distance than the other students and come back (while running so hard that they scattered all the obstacles they had prepared).
Why on earth did you risk your life like this?
“There are five students who followed behind you and became exhausted, and three students fell off their horses. It must have been lucky that I ran first and chased away all the monsters. “It’s okay to come back in moderation… but did you really want to set a new record?”
In the eyes of Professor Lightning Walk, Lee Han did not like showing off like that.
But why go to such lengths to set a new record?
Were you so proud of horseback riding that you wanted to leave a legend?
Of course, Lee Han looked at Professor Lightning Walk as if he were dumbfounded.
“Isn’t it because the professor told me this?”
Who was it that passed it on to Gryphon? ‘Why did you set a new record like that?’
Even though he was shameless, there was no such shamelessness.
Is it because he’s a professor that he’s so shameless?
The lightning-walking professor responded as shamelessly as Lee Han had thought.
“What nonsense. Gryphons don’t like to run like that. Moreover, he was forced to transform into words. “I wouldn’t have run if you hadn’t given me the command.”
“…?!”
Lee Han was shocked by the professor’s words.
no?!
‘He was a guy who was crazy because he wanted to run?’
Could it be that this happened because Lee Han was not given a chance to prove his ability?
“I guess I ignored him too much. “I wanted to prove my abilities…”
Professor Lightning Walk listened to Lee Han’s words with a skeptical expression.
It was a bit hard to believe that Gryphon was working so hard for just that reason.
“…Really.”
“okay. I’ll trust you for now. You worked hard, go back and get some rest. “I had to take other tests as well, so I had a hard time running like that.”
“The phone league had more trouble than me.”
After saying that, Lee Han returned to the starting line and looked at the returning students.
The disorganized students returned one by one and looked at Lee Han with awe.
“Did you see it?”
“I saw it.”
“That bastard… might become the best rider in the empire…!”
“……”
Lee Han decided that he should just go and rest.
* * *
Some students were suffering from muscle pain, but the magic school did not wait for them.
“I have to get some snails this evening. “If I think about the time it takes, today is still a close call.”
“I feel like my thighs are on fire.”
“I think my pelvis is cracked…”
Before evening, the Blue Dragon Tower students who gathered on the first basement floor held their canes and made a fuss.
The White Tiger Tower students laughed at that.
“You really lack discipline to say something like that about riding a horse…”
“Wardanaz guy… why are you talking so crazy…”
Lee Han ignored the muttering.
“ruler. Everyone knows things are bad. But now is the time for those who listen to alchemy to join forces. “If we don’t get the materials as quickly as possible, we might all fail.”
The magic school’s terrible schedule forced other top students to cooperate with each other.
Lee Han planned to gather the students and quickly break through the dungeon, then gather the materials and come out.
If he went in to collect the ingredients alone and failed or got hurt, only Lee Han would lose.
“ruler. Everyone take it.”
When Lee Han handed over the basket he brought from the break room, the White Tiger Tower students were puzzled.
“Is this a magic potion needed to conquer a dungeon?”
“no. “Evening snack.”
“……”
White Tiger Tower students lifted the cloth that covered the basket. Sandwiches were stacked neatly.
“…uh… huh?”
“what. “Have you any thoughts?”
“Wardanaz. “Don’t give it to people who aren’t hungry.”
At Asan’s words, the White Tiger Tower students waved their hands in haste.
“no! no! “I’ll eat well!”
“okay. “If you’re ready, let’s go in.”
Lee Han lined up the students. Because of the terrain of the dungeon, it was impossible to gather together and form a formation.
To some extent, each tower had no choice but to gather together and work together.
‘It would be faster for them to move on their own than for me to give them orders one by one.’
The princess was curious about what kind of sandwich it was, so she lifted the basket’s cloth to check.
Lee Han slapped the back of the princess’s hand.
“I’ll eat it later.”
Just like Gainando, the royal family had a lot of appetite. Lee Han warned and turned around.
“…?!”
The princess looked at Lee Han with eyes mixed with embarrassment, resentment, sadness, and resentment.
However, Lee Han was too busy lining up and inspecting the students to look back.
“If a problem arises, you have to form your own formation and respond. “If you think it’s dangerous, send a signal and then make your own decision.”
“do not worry. Wardanaz. “We are knights.”
The White Tiger Tower students said while holding the basket preciously in their arms. He was truly knightly.
widely-
While I was doing the final inspection on the first basement floor, someone came up the basement stairs leading to the dungeon.
It was Professor Boladi.
“…Isn’t it fun to have a picnic on the first basement floor? Should we go back soon?”
“What are you talking crazy, Wodanaz?”
