Episode 195
“…sorry.”
Lee Han first apologized.
I really couldn’t have imagined that the white-eyed dochi would just run away.
‘Isn’t that bastard too timid for a monster?’
If it’s a monster, you have to attack it with ferocity regardless of the opponent’s magic power, not if you’re that timid…
“ah.”
“?”
Beside me, Priest Syanna belatedly made a noise as if something had occurred to him.
“I think it would be a good idea to chase the white-eyed dochie. Lee Han of the Wardanaz family.”
“Why?”
Lee Han was ready to reject whatever Priest Siana said.
You should be thankful that the monster is running away, there is no reason to forcefully catch it.
Those stupid Black Turtle Tower students have the same delusion as ‘Wardanaz can possibly be satisfied with chasing away monsters’…
“The white-eyed dochi likes cold naps, so I collect them.”
“!!”
Cold sleep.
It was a material that could only be obtained by wading through the accumulated snow during a heavy snowfall, breaking the surface of a frozen lake, and then entering the water.
Of course, I excluded it from the beginning, thinking, ‘I shouldn’t even try to save this’…
“Let’s chase! Sharkan. Follow his tracks! Neilia. Help me!”
At the shout, the Black Turtle Tower students looked at Lee Han with an expression that said, ‘I knew that would happen as expected.’
Lee Han tried to hit his friends one by one but ended up failing.
* * *
If there was a student like Lee Han who made a cool-headed judgment and collected ingredients that were easy to obtain, there was also a student who tried to attract the attention of the professor by gathering ingredients that were difficult to obtain.
The White Tiger Tower students did just that.
Surprisingly, they were trying to break the thick lake ice in this harsh weather and save the cold porcupine.
Kwasik!
“done!”
The White Tiger Tower students, who finally succeeded in breaking the ice on the lake with an ax, bumped their fists together.
Breaking ice was usually not difficult in this cold weather.
If I just swung the ax, my clothes would get wet with sweat and freeze, so I had to swing it slowly, little by little.
“be careful.”
“I know. ruler. “Go in!”
One of the students took out a round bead with a pattern engraved on it.
It was a <fake eye> that I bought from Black Turtle Tower students.
“Show me, eyes! “Where I can’t see!”
An artifact that clearly shows the user the view around the bead.
Although it was a one-time use, it was one of the better failures available at school.
The students secured the marble to a stick and then placed it into the lake.
Although he was wearing several layers of leather with a minor cold resistance spell, all that was meaningless when he fell into the lake.
The students’ movements were also cautious.
“There it is! hook!”
Students who discovered the cold porridge attempted to pull it out by inserting a hook.
The tightly packed cold porridge was pulled out little by little. The students’ faces brightened.
“I took it out!”
“Keep digging! “Let’s take everything!”
-■■■■! ■■■■!
“?!?”
“what!?”
Before the white-eyed dochi appeared.
With a crackling sound, the white-eyed dochi began to run across the lake. The White Tiger Tower students, who were absorbed in fishing, were one step late in responding.
“That… that…”
“Don’t come this way!”
Despite the students’ cries, the white-eyed Dochi ran ahead, paying no heed to them.
The white-eyed dochi rushed towards the hole made by the students. The weakened ice broke apart in succession, and a huge bursting sound erupted.
with a splash!
The white-eyed dochi dived into the lake.
…and the White Tiger Tower students.
* * *
“Why are those kids on the lake? “Dangerously!”
Asan was embarrassed as he watched White Tiger Tower students falling into the lake in the distance.
But Lee Han saw something a little different.
‘no. ‘You dug up a cold nap, right?’
A basket left on the lakeside.
And Lee Han’s eyes lit up when he saw the basket full of cold porridge.
I never thought I would have succeeded in digging that up.
“I need help!”
Nilia shouted urgently.

Isn’t this accident caused by chasing a white-eyed dogfish?
At those words, Lee Han, who was wondering how to rent a cold sleep, nodded.
“okay. “Let’s help and borrow a cold sleep in return.”
“uh? what?”
“Move!”
Lee Han did not respond but took action.
First of all, save those who have fallen!
Lee Han lifted and moved the poles stacked by the White Tiger Tower students. The students who were struggling on the lake barely managed to hold on to the pole.
“Get out!”
“Whoa… whoa… whoa…”
The White Tiger Tower students couldn’t even speak properly because of the cold. I climbed up shakily, holding on to the pole.
But not everyone did that. Some stumbled, unable to exert any strength as their arms were paralyzed.
‘I have to upload it myself!’
For a brief moment, Lee Han’s head quickly rotated.
How can we get the students who are drowning in the water back to the lakeside?
‘Manipulating the water below…’
Lee Han cast a spell once again.
It was a spell aimed at the feet of students who had fallen into the lake.
Water element magic is the most familiar and familiar magic to Lee Han.
Now, even in urgent situations, it can be cast as naturally as breathing.
‘…Float upward!’
with a splash!
The students’ heads shot up. But that was it.
It was not easy to rescue a drowning person with a water net.
‘Why not!’
Because of the distance and the wide range of handling, the power of the water was not properly maintained.
If it had been the water that Lee Han had summoned, his control would have been much stronger, but the water in the lake was not easy to handle.
Lee Han clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘Should I summon water separately and put it in? No… the moment you put it in, it will mix with the lake water and become weak.’
The cold wind passed by Lee Han’s cheek as he was thinking.
At that moment, a ray of inspiration flowed through Lee Han’s arm.
Even before he could think with his head, Lee Han was instinctively reciting the spell.
It was the so-called wizard’s enlightenment.
“Freeze!”
Blah blah blah!
Just as he realized how to control the water element at some point when his life was threatened by Professor Boladi, Lee Han seemed to know what the cold element was.
Forgetting the current situation, Lee Han was absorbed in controlling his coldness. Enlightenment made me forget the bitter cold.
‘Nonsense!’
Yoner looked at Ihan in surprise.
No matter what magic Ihan used, unlike other students who thought, ‘Wardanaz is a guy who knows how to use evil secret magic, so what’s surprising?’, Yoner knew to some extent what magic Ihan could use and what magic he couldn’t use.
And cold elemental magic was a magic that Lee Han did not know how to use.
If I had known how to use it, I wouldn’t have had such a hard time storing food ingredients in the first place.
But now Lee Han was using cold elemental magic.
There was only one reason that made sense.
I learned it on my own without learning from a professor!
-Makin. It is said that a good wizard learns quickly, but a good wizard learns on his own.
-Is that possible?
-then. As you learn, there will come a time when you will realize it on your own. That’s when you can say you’re a real wizard.
Sigh-
A large area of ice formed in the water pushed the fallen students upward.
Friends quickly rescued the White Tiger Tower students, who looked like mice that had fallen into the water.
“Build a fire!”
“Boo, the flint got wet?”
“Are you a wizard!?”
“Ah… oops. sorry.”
“Bring the potion!”
The students quickly lit a fire at the lakeside and massaged the hands and feet of the White Tiger Tower friends.
“Yoner, help me! “I need to make more potions!”
“huh? Oh sorry.”
Yoner quickly came to his senses and prepared a potion.
I felt strange.
I have so many friends, but Yoner is the only one who realized how amazing what I just saw was.
Just then, Lee Han walked out. Lee Han was muttering something.
Yoner became curious and listened.
What is Lee Han really saying?
‘Maybe something about something I just realized?’
“When I get back to the tower, I’ll have to practice freezing the perishable ingredients first.”
“……”
Yoner pretended not to hear and turned his attention to the cauldron.
There were many times when things in the world were surprisingly more trivial than I thought.
* * *
“Wardanaz… thank you. “I don’t know why the white-eyed dochi suddenly appeared.”
“That’s actually us…”
“Okay.”
Lee Han cut off Nilia’s words.
“Even though we are different towers, it is our duty to help students in crisis.”
“…???”
Nilia looked at Lee Han in bewilderment. However, Lee Han’s expression did not change at all.
“Okay then, let’s sleep in a cold sleep…”
“Hey, the white-eyed dochi is coming again!”
“!”
All the students looked away in surprise.
The white-eyed dochi was indeed approaching.
But it was a little different from before. The white-eyed dochi slowly approached and placed something down.
It was a bundle of cold hyacinth.
“…!”
“Well, that is…”
“Wardanaz. “I guess White-Eyed Dochi was touched when he saw you saving his friends!”
“that…! “It’s a miracle!”
The students present were truly surprised.
Who would have thought that a mere monster would be so moved that he would give me a gift like this.
It was a miracle that warmed my heart even in the cold, snowy weather.
Nilia tilted her head.
“That’s not true, I think you’re scared? “It’s his habit of giving gifts so people don’t chase him…”
“Shh. Nilia. “I think it would be better for you to be quiet.”
Ratford covered Nilia’s mouth.
There was no need to break this atmosphere.
* * *
Professor Thunder Gait praised the students who had collected various materials.
Then, the materials were trimmed and stored in glass jars so that the students could use them over and over again.
Although I did say a few useless things.
-Did you find a cold sleep? You really asked for this? How did you get it?
-……
Thanks to this, even the White Tiger Tower students, who had been frozen, became heated with anger.
Lee Han had a quick lunch and then walked to Professor Boladi’s classroom.
‘Wouldn’t cold be the main focus this week?’
Lee Han thought as he headed to the classroom.
Although Professor Boladi was the most unpredictable of the professors, he was still able to predict this much.
Since the heavy snow outside is not an opportunity that comes around often, there was a high possibility that Professor Boladi would also take advantage of it.
“You’re here.”
“yes.”
“Cold is one of the most difficult elements. Especially when it comes to magic combat. However, through appropriate application, those limitations can be overcome.”
Lee Han was not surprised to see the vampire professor get straight to the point.
I nodded as if I knew that would happen. Moreover, her expression showed a little confidence.
It just so happened that I was on my way after realizing the cold attribute.
“Although it is difficult to maintain and lacks instantaneous destruction power, cold magic is useful in the following moments…”
Lee Han concentrated on Professor Boladi’s explanation and took notes.
At some point, Professor Boladi finished his explanation.
“Let’s try casting a cold creation spell.”
Lee Han nodded.
“Freeze!”
Cold air shot out from the tip of the wand, lowering the temperature in the classroom. Frost settled on the desks in front of Lee Han.
Originally, cold elemental magic would have to be learned through numerous trials and errors.
Even in the surprising situation that a new student learned it on his own, Professor Boladi’s expression did not change.
“Good job.”
‘huh?’
“I thought it would take a day, but I think we can speed up the progress. “The magic I’m going to cast next is…”
“……”
Only then did Lee Han come to his senses.
‘What was I doing?’
I was so happy that I realized the cold element earlier that I was distracted.
…I should have pretended I couldn’t do it a few times!
