Episode 211
‘We do not choose any means or methods.’
Unlike Klbig, who sympathized with Lee Han and tried to moderately subdue him, Lee Han was 100% sincere.
In fact, if a freshman didn’t show his sincerity against a high-ranking fantasy wizard, he was crazy.
A strengthening spell that was cast as much as possible before the duel began.
The strengthening magic further explosively increased Lee Han’s trained physical abilities.
The skeleton principal thought to himself as he saw his student running fast.
‘Well. ‘Do I have to do it like that?’
It was not illegal to cast a spell like that before a duel.
Moreover, Lee Han is a freshman and his opponent is a well-known wizard.
There was no one to criticize for something like that.
It’s because it seems a bit shameless and poor.
The skeleton principal looked a bit pathetic.
I would win if I just fought…
‘It’s undignified.’
Lee Han ran forward without even thinking that the skeleton principal was thinking such unlucky thoughts.
‘You have to stay close!’
Unlike Principal Skeleton, who was confident that he could win even if he fought with his eyes closed, Lee Han was naturally unconvinced.
Basically, I thought that if I got even one hit from the opponent’s magic, it would be over.
So far, it has shown resistance to magic or poison a few times, but that’s not a 100% guarantee.
As the opponent’s skill was so strong, unlike before, he was able to defeat Lee Han in one go.
What is the most likely way to confront such a wizard?
The idea was to stay as close as possible to prevent magic from being used.
widely!
Lee Han took out an iron bead from his sleeve. Then he threw it to Klbig.
Klvik, who had already been surprised by Lee Han’s movements, was surprised again by the iron ball flying through the air.
I had the ability to easily block simple projectiles, but…
…The iron ball flew in faster than Klvik expected.
“Tsk!”
Klbig stopped the spell he was reciting and lowered his posture. His iron ball passed over his head.
It was a very brief moment, but it was enough. After narrowing the distance, Lee Han immediately grabbed Klvik by the collar and knocked him down.
bang!
Then he bent his arm back and subdued him. Clevik’s staff flew to the side.
“I lost… I lost!”
The illusion wizards were surprised by Klvik’s declaration of defeat.
The freshman’s movements far exceeded expectations.
Who would have thought that a first year student would be so agile and move so quickly!
“That’s what His Excellency Gonadaltes was aiming for…!”
“Shit. He took advantage of our loophole. “I never thought you would bring a student from a knight’s family.”
“indeed. If you don’t know about that type of attack in advance, it’s not easy to respond to it right away. “Is that what you were aiming for?”
If I had defeated a first-year student using the same magic, the shock would have been immeasurable.
However, when we lost due to an unexpected loophole like that, there was a slightly different reaction.
-Ah, that boy is so amazing at such a young age!
‘No, you idiots…!’
The skull principal was stunned by the whispers of the fantasy wizards.
There’s no way he came here to win with a surprise trick like that.
I came here to show that illusion magic is being cruelly ignored in front of first graders…
It won’t work. Close combat is prohibited.
“yes!?”
Lee Han was astonished.
Prohibit close combat…
“Isn’t that too much?”
It’s not too much. It’s because you don’t know.
“If you want me to lose, you can just be honest.”
No!?
When the student he brought with him grunted, the skeleton principal was doubly shocked.
This poor student still wasn’t confident in his abilities.
You can just block it with your body!
“yes. “I guess so.”
……
Regardless of whether the skeleton principal was glaring at him or not, Lee Han was lost in thought.
If close combat is prohibited…
‘It’s getting really difficult.’
Illusion magic, like a curse, was fast to cast and difficult to avoid.
If you have learned the relevant defensive magic, the difficulty of blocking is greatly reduced, but Lee Han is still a first year student. He couldn’t even master such defensive magic.
No matter how fast Lee Han casts magic and attacks, if he is hit by the opponent’s magic even once…
“Your Excellency Gonadaltes. it’s okay!”
“You don’t have to do that. Please allow that first-year student to engage in close combat!”

Rather, it was the fantasy wizards who helped Lee Han.
The fantasy wizards became enraged at the sight of Gonadaltes persecuting first-year students and ignoring them.
No matter how sudden the loss was, I had no intention of winning by giving such a penalty to a first-year student.
“everyone…!”
Lee Han gave a slightly moved look.
Just as Ogonin was well-liked even though his skills were a bit lacking, it was clear that the wizards under him also had good personalities.
Of course, it was something that was shocking to the skeleton principal.
Who sympathizes with whom now… Even if close combat is banned, you guys can’t win!?
“Even so, there is no need to ban it! “It goes against our pride.”
The Skeleton Headmaster had to resist the urge to block the illusion wizard’s snout with magic.
Lee Han looked relieved. Anyone could see that he looked like he was going to run out again and engage in close combat.
“I am Doibach. Please take care of me. Of course, it doesn’t matter if you try close combat!”
“Please take care of me.”
The attitude of the new Doibach wizard was polite, and his gaze was full of respect.
It may have been a surprise attack and luck, but didn’t they beat Klvik anyway?
It was a great thing in itself that a first year student could do something like that.
Deuterbach promised.
‘As a wizard who has trained in illusion magic, and as someone who has received the teachings of Ogonin-sama, I will confront that first-year student’s specialty head-on and win fair and square!’
I’m really going to be amazed…
The skeleton principal muttered, but no one listened.
* * *
“what a waste!”
“That’s amazing!”
“I never thought it would be that bad…!”
Lee Han defeated three more people after that.
Doibach tried to cast an illusion magic with the shortest casting speed, but was barely late as Lee Han approached him quickly and interrupted his concentration with <Summon Bone Binding Ball>.
Zelkenb, using his skills in dealing with warriors, spread a labyrinth of illusion magic around himself and tried to block their approach, but he was half a step too late.
Bonbondo…
Is it because you illusion wizards don’t practice dueling so much that your casting speed is so slow!?
The skeleton principal, who had thought that at least one person would bet before Lee Han could approach, exploded.
Of course, dueling is not a required skill for a wizard, and there are even fewer wizards who specialize in magical combat, like Professor Voladi or the Skeleton Headmaster, but isn’t this too much?
“That is correct. “Your Excellency Gonadaltes.”
“I’m embarrassed. “I never thought I would lose like this to a first-year student.”
“I respect your skills. It’s truly outstanding skill. Don’t be discouraged just because you come from a family of knights. “Because mastering magic has nothing to do with family.”
“yes? sleep…”
“You will soon stand out in the imperial duel world. “I’m looking forward to it.”
The illusion wizards accepted it obediently.
It was a disappointing loss, but they were not shameless enough not to admit it.
Even the other person is a first-year student.
No matter how you lost, it was honorable to respect and praise your opponent’s skills.
“thank you.”
“In the future, you will meet many wizards who have a faster casting speed than us, but if you continue to improve your speed, it will be difficult to find a match for you.”
It’s a heartwarming sight where they acknowledge their own shortcomings and praise a first-year student with outstanding talent.
It could be said to be the most ideal sight when different wizards meet.
Klbig wondered if Gonadaltes might have brought a first-year student for this purpose.
In order to help the fantasy wizards here realize their shortcomings, I have hired a first-year student with such special skills…
Those insignificant idiots…
…is not it?
done. Ogonin. Let’s face each other separately. I’m all awake.
Ogonin looked at the skeleton headmaster’s words and nodded.
Even from Ogonin’s perspective, the duel just went very strangely.
* * *
Please explain properly to this poor student. Even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe me.
“Um… I mean. “You have quite strong magic power.”
Pretty?
“…very strong.”
very?
“…How about you just say it?”
Are festival disruptors, firecracker destroyers, and relic thieves giving orders to me now? what the. What will happen to the world…
Ogonin endured even though it was dirty and cruel. Because he was wrong.
“This anti-magic power works in many directions… but in particular, in the case of illusion magic that applies pure magic power directly to the mind, it tends to be particularly strongly affected by anti-magic power.”
Lee Han was able to understand Ogonin’s detailed explanation.
“So last time?”
“…You can say that. In particular, illusion magic cast directly will most likely not work well.”
“aha. Then the principal wasn’t exaggerating when he said it was okay to just get hit.”
It’s next to me.
“Well… you could say so.”
Lee Han was intrigued by Ogonin’s guarantee.
I never thought what the skeleton principal said was really true.
‘It wasn’t a ploy to harass me.’
Of course, even if he had believed the words of the skeleton principal, Lee Han would have fought just the same.
because…
‘Why bother when you can avoid it?’
Why get hit when you can avoid it? Even if it was a slim probability of 0.0001%, there was no need to take the risk.
“thank you. “Thank you for letting me know.”
Take out that book.
“yes?”
A book written by Ogonin.
“……”
Lee Han took out a book with a shocked expression.
It was a book Ogonin wrote when he was young, which he bought at a bookstore.
When Ogonin saw this, he looked at the skeleton headmaster with astonishment.
He was a wizard who was truly sincere in many ways when it came to bullying others.
What do you think?
“Of course, since I wrote it when I was young, there are some immature parts…”
“It seems like a good book.”
Lee Han thought he was being asked and answered.
The misunderstanding was resolved, but it didn’t make Ogonin feel like an archmage.
To be honest, if you’re an archmage, wouldn’t you be able to cast a spell even through anti-magic power?
Considering those skills, this book was well written.
Ogonin cast a look of gratitude at Lee Han’s unexpected reaction.
Of course, the skeleton principal was not convinced.
that is?! Compare it with my book. It will look different.
“It’s true that the principal’s book is better, but… each book has its own value, so just because it’s relatively inferior doesn’t mean it’s a bad book, right?”
The skeleton principal was slow to react because he couldn’t decide whether to be happy about Lee Han’s flattery or angry at the interruption.
“Thank you!”
Ogonin was truly moved.
Originally, he was an Ogonin who received praise and gratitude from numerous magicians. He was no longer impressed by the praise he received from the young wizard.
However, hearing praise from the student in front of the crazy skeleton principal made even Ogonin’s dull heart beat.
“This is also fate, so if it’s okay, can I teach you something?”
“!”
Lee Han paused and turned his gaze to the skeleton principal.
Principal Skeleton, who misunderstood the meaning, grunted and answered.
Try to learn. It’s rare to have a chance to be taught directly by a wizard like Ogonin. It’s a good opportunity.
‘I meant why I had to learn it.’
Lee Han thought to himself.
Inside the magic school there is Professor Kirmin Ku, and outside the magic school there is a wizard like Waldororn, so I really wanted to.
‘Still, out of courtesy, I’ll have to do my best to learn.’
“thank you.”
