Episode 220
Contrary to the misunderstanding of the White Tiger Tower students, Lee Han did not have the slightest intention of capturing Rock Drake.
I know Rock Drake’s tenacity, but there’s no way he would do such a reckless thing.
‘I lure him out.’
There was no need to fight back or just give up and run away.
lure it out
The reason why wizards were selected as high-quality personnel no matter where they went was precisely this flexible coping ability.
Other adventurers had to fight for their lives or give up and run away, but wizards had a third or fourth option.
And Lee Han was particularly advantageous in this regard.
Because he was studying an unusually wide range of fields among wizards.
‘If you provoke him and then direct his gaze…’
Durgyu was Durgyu, but if the path down to where the White Tiger Tower students were now was, he couldn’t just hand it over to Rock Drake.
Secure it somehow!
“Whoa, whoa, Wodanaz. “Promise me one thing.”
“?”
“I won’t catch Rock Drake.”
“……”
Lee Han looked pitifully at the White Tiger Tower students, whose legs were shaking.
‘I said I wouldn’t catch it…’
“okay. “I promise.”
“…Jin, is it true?”
“of course.”
“……”
The White Tiger Tower students stared at Lee Han’s expression.
He had such an expressionless, sculptural face that I couldn’t believe him even when he said something like that.
“…really really…”
“If you ask me one more time, I will use you as bait first.”
“!”
At Lee Han’s words, the White Tiger Tower student was shocked and kept his mouth shut.
It didn’t seem like a joke.
‘Did they bring these kids here for no reason…’
Lee Han had now approached with only the White Tiger Tower students, leaving the other friends on the hill behind.
It didn’t take many people to lure Rock Drake anyway. The larger the number, the more difficult the invisibility magic became.
The reason I brought the White Tiger Tower students was because they are agile and quick, so it is easy to respond when a problem arises…
‘If I go alone, no matter how many Dergyu there are, they won’t listen to me.’
In case of emergency, it was to give orders to other White Tiger Tower students perched on the hill.
Even those who don’t listen to Lee Han’s orders will have no choice but to listen to his orders with tears in their eyes if their friends are next to Lee Han.
Actually half hostage!
Of course, the White Tiger Tower students next to Lee Han did not know what situation they were in.
He just stared at Rock Drake with a nervous expression.
“But will the Rock Drake react with just the water orb? “Some magic doesn’t work…”
“So I hit him in the vital spot.”
“……”
‘Why on earth did you do that!’
The White Tiger Tower students cried inwardly.
I thought it was just a provocation, but I ended up hitting a vital point without them knowing…
Thump, thump, thump, thump-
Rock Drake looked away from the hill and began moving in the complete opposite direction.
It looked like he was trying to find out who the obnoxious guy who hit his nose was.
‘request. Sharkan.’
Pop!
When Lee Han gave a signal, Sharkan, who was waiting on the other side, jumped out.
Rock Drake turned his head in surprise at the appearance of a green leopard.
-■■■…
Sharkan did not overdo it.
Instead of attacking the monster, which was much larger and had stronger defenses, it provoked it with a sharp sound.
And then he turned around without hesitation. Rock Drake lost his temper and tried to chase Sharkan.
“Bone. Capture the enemy.”
Lee Han chanted the spell in a low voice.
Negative energy unique to black magic enveloped the surroundings, and a bone restraint sphere was summoned to Rock Drake’s front paws.
Rattling!
Actually, it was meaningless.
Because you couldn’t tie a giant by attaching a rope to his fingers.
Even if I summoned a bone restraint ball to Rock Drake’s front paw, I was able to shatter it in just one second.
However, Lee Han paid no heed and continued to cast spells.
“Bone, seize the enemy. Bones, seize the enemy. Bones…”
If one doesn’t work, two.
If two doesn’t work, three.

In an instant, the bone restraints multiplied and stuck to Rock Drake’s front paws.
It still didn’t mean much, but it was clear that Rock Drake’s temper had been properly scratched.
After getting hit by a water ball and being taunted by some undead monster, there are now cumbersome bone restraints.
-■■■… ■■■…
“Heat, distort the air.”
In that situation, when a wizard-like figure appeared, Rock Drake exploded.
The sluggishness he had shown so far disappeared, and he began a rush that was close to a runaway, literally plowing through the hard ground.
Quad deud deuk!
It was a terrifying rush that felt like an earthquake to the students nearby.
“He went… did he go? “Are you gone?”
“okay.”
The White Tiger Tower students were relieved as they swept their hearts out.
Still, Wardanaz kept his promise, and it ended without doing anything reckless like hunting the Rock Drake.
I’m so glad!
“Tell them you guys went up the hill and chased Rock Drake. “It will be confusing because you don’t know the situation from above.”
“Well, I guess so. I am coming.”
“I like other students…”
Lee Han, who was speaking, paused.
A new rock drake appeared near the Blue Dragon Tower where the students were waiting.
“……”
“……”
The students’ minds all froze in this unexpected situation.
But Lee Han took action right away.
“Tell them you went after Rock Drake. “I’m going to beat that guy!”
“Whoa… Wardanaz!”
The White Tiger Tower students called Lee Han’s name without realizing it.
No matter how ridiculously reckless he was and even though he was a master of evil magic, he had no choice but to admit that Wardanaz did not hesitate to go to the rescue of his friends in a situation like this.
“…be careful!”
“Stop talking nonsense and go upstairs and tell the story!”
“I’m sorry.”
When Lee Han got really angry with a straight face, the White Tiger Tower students avoided their gaze.
There’s no need to be that angry…
* * *
Even though my friends were camouflaged on the other side of the hill, I couldn’t rest assured. Lee Han took Sharkan and ran quickly.
But the distance was too far.
‘shit.’
“Heat, distort the air!”
Lee Han brought illusions to those around him. It was to somehow attract Rock Drake’s attention.
“Light!”
A huge sphere of light emerged. Even Rock Drake, who was far away, was startled by the intense amount of light.
‘done. Look…’
-Crumbling.
Sharkan made a confused sound.
Rock Drake began to disappear into the ground before my eyes.
“……”
Lee Han couldn’t help but be taken aback by this unfamiliar sight.
In the book, I heard that Rock Drake fights head-on against opponents he thinks he can beat, and goes underground against opponents he feels threatened to look for an opportunity…
That was true!
‘Did I cast the light magic too strong?’
From Rock Drake’s perspective, the sphere of light was so needlessly strong and dazzling that he felt threatened.
Sharkan suddenly started pounding the ground like crazy, biting Lee Han’s sleeve and pulling him.
-Crrrrrrrrr! Cry!
“!”
Lee Han wasn’t so dull that he didn’t notice the signal. Lee Han tried to leave immediately.
However, Rock Drake’s movement speed was much faster than expected.
Quad deud deuk!
With a roar, a rock drake appeared from beneath the ground.
As the balance in all directions collapsed and debris and dust flew, Lee Han urgently chanted a spell.
“Move!”
The iron ball was held firmly in the air and served as an anchor. Lee Han held the iron ball with his hand and gave strength to his whole body.
‘If you lose your balance, you die!’
How long did it last?
At that moment, the ground beneath me rose up as if it were solidly supporting me.
‘for a moment…’
It wasn’t land.
It was Rock Drake’s huge appearance.
“……”
Lee Han was astonished at the fact that he was already on Rock Drake’s back.
Because he mistakenly avoided a rock drake that jumped out of the basement, he ended up getting on his back.
‘…no. That’s a good thing.’
At first, he felt dizzy, but Lee Han quickly came to his senses.
Fortunately, Rock Drake didn’t seem to notice that someone was on top of him.
Moreover, as if he felt relieved by destroying the suspicious light clump, he began to walk at a brisk pace.
‘I guess I’ll have to jump off the nearest hill.’
Lee Han promised himself that when he returned, he would first look for low-speed falling magic.
Looking at it today, I don’t know what will happen in the future if I don’t learn it…
-■■…
-■■ ■■■…
“……”
Lee Han was unable to find a nearby hill and get down.
As it happened, the Rock Drake on top ran into the Rock Drake who got angry and ran away earlier.
I thought the direction was somehow similar…!
Tap, tap.
Tap, tap, tap.
The two rock drakes glared at each other. I felt an urge to give in first.
And no one gave in.
“…sleep…”
Boom!!!!!
The two rock drakes clashed fiercely.
On the back of Rock Drake, which was shaking like crazy, Lee Han thought.
‘…In the future, when Professor Ingaldelle is thinking about a good place to practice swordsmanship, I will have to recommend the top of Rock Drake’s back.’
* * *
“hurry! You bastards! “Why are you guys so slow!”
“Huh, huh… Those bastards… Why are they so… stamina…”
The Blue Dragon Tower students who joined mercilessly urged the White Tiger Tower students.
Among the White Tiger Tower students who heard the explanation of the situation, none of them refused to go rescue Wardanaz.
-under. You Blue Dragon Tower guys, rest here.
-You guys can’t be dull.
Rather, he reacted like this.
But surprisingly, the Blue Dragon Tower students were much more energetic.
If you think about it, it was natural.
The White Tiger Tower students explored the surrounding area while conserving water, and had just completed various construction projects to prevent the Rock Drake from rising.
The Blue Dragon Tower students, who moved with ease, were bound to be less tired.
“Moradi. thanks. “I thought you would say no.”
Giselle shrugged her shoulders at Durgyu’s words.
“Perhaps we became friends because we formed a group and moved together during a swordsmanship lecture… Oh, no. sorry.”
When Giselle glared at her as if she were killing someone, Durgyu kept his mouth shut.
“Wardanaz risked his life to lure Rock Drake, and if you don’t come to help, there’s no way you idiots here will just sit still. “That’s why I’m going.”
“Right.”
“So please stop talking nonsense. Choi. okay? “Since you were outside of school, why have you been…”
“……”
Durgyu regretted it.
‘I said it for no reason…’
Giselle, who sharply insulted Durgyu’s character (idiot, brat, simpleton, pick-pocketed by a street beggar, etc.), seemed to feel better and changed the subject.
“one thing. “There is something I don’t understand.”
“what?”
“Why did Wardanaz help us?”
“……”
Dergyu did not bother to tell Lee Han that he had told him the location of the door leading down.
Because it seemed like Giselle’s swearing would become three or four times more fierce.
“Well… well. Even though Wardanaz appears cold, he values friendship…”
“I told you not to talk nonsense, right? It’s clear they have some ulterior motive. “There’s no way I would help you without any reason.”
People have always judged everything based on their own standards. Of course Giselle did the same.
There’s no way I can help you if you don’t have an ulterior motive!
Giselle frowned and was lost in thought, trying to figure out Wardanaz’s evil brain, which could not be easily grasped.
Of course, there was no such ulterior motive.
“Hey… there!! Look over there!!!”
“Tell me to stop making a fuss. “It’s not like the water is rotting, but if you scream like that every time you see something…”
Giselle, who had been replying bluntly, stopped.
Dergyu also looked ahead with a shocked expression.
There were two rock drakes lying down in front of me.
“……”
“I-I told you so. “I heard Wodanaz wanted to capture Rock Drake earlier!”
While everything was quiet, the words of one White Tiger Tower student rang out especially loudly.
