Episode 255
Lee Han answered seriously, as if he really didn’t know.
“Wardanaz!”
“You said you didn’t know about it.”
“That’s not it, I’m asking you to give me instructions! What should I do!”
Rafadel shouted urgently.
Then Gai Nando said as if he was dumbfounded.
“You come from a family of knights! “You should take action in a situation like this!”
“shut up! You prince! “Then why are you like that even though you are a member of the royal family?”
“no…!”
It was so absurd that Gai Nando was momentarily speechless.
And I was angry.
“hey! What does it have to do with me being a prince? Are you a former knight?! “What kind of article is this!”
“If you’re a royal family member, at least show your abilities as a royal family member! “Your Highness, the princess of the same tower, has followers in our tower as well. What are you?”
“You’re already showing your abilities?! Everyone in our TOP knows my abilities?! Lee Han! “Do you know my abilities?!”
Gainando took advantage of the fact that his opponent did not know much about the situation in the Blue Dragon Tower and used ugly force.
“Lee Han??”
Ihan and Ymirg were retreating far away, leaving the two behind.
Gainando shouted in horror.
“Lee Han!! Well, just throw that guy away! Why me!!”
“Just run fast. “Seeing them fighting so needlessly made me wonder if they had some free time.”
Gainando and Rafadel hurriedly ran towards each other, swearing at each other.
Looking at that scene, Ymirg whispered with a puzzled expression.
“I… that’s not what I want to say… is it okay if I do that???”
“are you okay. “This is how we both come to our senses and get along better.”
“…?!”
Imirg thought that was some kind of nonsense, but Lee Han’s face was so serious.
‘Wow… what does Wardanaz have in mind…?’
‘I think those guys will come to their senses once they’re caught.’
* * *
Unfortunately, the two were not caught. I came up the hill panting.
“Woah, gasp. Is it okay here? “Just walking to the exit… gasp.”
“The distance is farther than I thought, so it’s dangerous to just go. Let’s take care of it once and let’s go.”
The true strength of the undead lies in their limitless persistence.
Even when other monsters get tired and give up the chase, the undead can come endlessly.
If you tried to run away just because you were a little fast and ended up surrounded, you would be at a further disadvantage.
“This place doesn’t look very sturdy.”
Rafael looked around the temple ruins with an anxious expression.
Even if it was a different dimension, it was not an empty world without anything. There were miscellaneous items and ruins from all over the place.
In the undead world, you can often see graves, cemeteries, and buildings on the verge of ruin.
Now the four had arrived in front of the crumbling ruins of the temple ruins.
It was better than dealing with the undead in the open field with nothing, but even so, the temple ruins seemed too weak.
“This wall… won’t it collapse if you push on it? “If the undead push back…”
“It’s not that weak, so you don’t have to worry. And I plan to reinforce it as well.”
“how?”
Instead of answering, Lee Han waved his cane.
“Gather together, dirt!”
Dirt piled up behind the ruins wall. Rafael saw that and hesitated.
“It would be helpful to pile up a pile of dirt behind the wall, but to this extent…”
“Gather together, earth. Gather together, dirt. Gather together, earth…”
Without any time to breathe, Lee Han piled up dirt piles all over the inside of the ruins to reinforce the walls to prevent them from collapsing.
Then, the ruins of the temple ruins, which had looked quite flimsy until just a moment ago, became a rather decent improvised fortress.
It is an improvised fortress that is easy to hold in the large space inside, as it is blocked on all sides by walls and earth.
Except for the entrance passage to the temple, it seemed that the enemy could not enter.
“done.”
“……”
Rafael was once again astonished.
I feel it every time I see it, but the ability that Wodanaz shows when it comes to magic is really…
It made me wonder if a person who becomes an archmage would be like that.
“Can’t the entrance be completely blocked?”
“It’s difficult to clean it up later, and if you block it all, the undead can enter strange places. “It’s better to lure them away from the entrance and then deal with them one by one.”
“Right.”
“ruler. Then lure me here.”
“…what?”
“Guess me from the entrance.”
Lee Han waved his cane.
I planned to wait in the open space inside and use magic to defeat the enemy the moment I passed through the entrance passage.
For that to happen, Lee Han had to wait here.

Instead, we need someone to attract enemies at the entrance, and the person who can take on this role is…
“You are a knight. “Are you really planning on ordering your friends who can’t even use a sword properly?”
“……”
It wasn’t wrong, but for some reason it made me very angry.
Rafael cursed Lee Han in his mind and walked towards the entrance.
* * *
Kwasik!
“yes!”
Another undead passed through the entrance passage, stuck its head out, and fell down.
Rapadel, who was aiming his wooden sword with a nervous expression, breathed a sigh of relief.
It was going much better than I had feared.
I glanced outside and saw that the number of undead that had gathered earlier had decreased by about a quarter.
I thought this was enough to handle it.
“…Lee Han. But didn’t the professor say that last time?”
Gainando, who had regained his composure, whispered to Lee Han.
Last time, Lee Han’s magic flowed out and killed other undead…
“Gainando. The undead are coming in from outside right now, but it looks like they’re at leisure. Do you want to lure me in?”
“Ah… no. no.”
Gainando quickly closed his mouth.
Lee Han thought to himself.
‘I’m sure there won’t be more people coming.’
Even though it was true that the undead were flocking to us because of the magic, it was a bit unnerving that they appeared in greater numbers than last time.
If it’s a coincidence, I’d be happy, but just in case…
‘If more of the people who came nearby last time came here this time…’
The story would be different if the undead who came nearby last time but did not see Lee Han were waiting nearby and gathered again this time.
Doesn’t that mean that every time you come in, more undead will be attracted to you?
If you enter the spirit world and the spirits avoid you, and if you enter the undead world, the undead attack you, it was clear that summoning magic would be quite difficult in the future.
Lee Han vowed that if that were the case, he would definitely take Rafael and Guynando with him.
“…I think I took them all down.”
Rafael said hesitantly.
The sounds of the undead could no longer be heard outside the passage.
“I guess I should go out and check.”
“Shut up a bit… Ah. That’s what you were trying to do.”
“……”
“…..”
Lee Han and Gainando, who were about to leave, looked at Rapadel pitifully.
Rafadel’s face turned red.
“I just heard it wrong!”
“Yes, yes.”
Lee Han and Kainando passed through the passage and stuck their heads out.
Many of the undead from earlier have disappeared, and all that remains…
“Ugh!”
Gainando was scared and ran away from Lee Han. There was still one undead left.
It seemed like they arrived late because they were located at the back.
“Don’t worry. “You can easily deal with just one…”
-■■■■!
I hadn’t attacked or suppressed anything yet, but the skeleton warrior that came close fell down.
Lee Han and Guy Nando were speechless at that sight.
“uh. If this was going to be the case, couldn’t we have just waited without having to fight?”
“That’s nonsense. “The more the undead band together, the more violent they become, so they would never have given in so easily.”
Lee Han said firmly.
However, the voice was slightly trembling.
* * *
After defeating the undead group, the four found additional undead and succeeded in signing a contract.
When I returned to the exit, Professor Millais was talking to some students in the classroom.
“hello. professor.”
“Did you go into the undead world and then come back out?”
“ah. yes. “Because of the assignment.”
“It would be best not to go in for about two days.”
Professor Millais said, slightly adjusting the position of the monocle.
“The flow of magical power felt from another dimension is unstable. “If you go in now, you might face trouble…”
“…omg! “We got hit!”
Gainando shouted as if he understood.
“As I was walking around inside, dozens of undead attacked me in a swarm! That’s why…!”
“?”
Professor Millais listened and tilted his head as if something was strange.
“If the flow of magic power is unstable, the undead’s temperament or behavior will change, but it is completely different for dozens of them to attack in a group even though there is a safety device…”
“indeed. The flow of magical power is truly amazing. “From now on, even if there is a safety device in place, I need to get into the habit of checking it again before entering.”
Lee Han said firmly.
As that wasn’t enough, he quickly changed the topic.
“professor. “Could you please check the undead we have contracted with?”
“Let me take a look.”
Professor Millais nodded, not realizing his student’s evil intentions.
A summons contract, a pre-final assignment for summoning magic.
Students always wanted to find strong and cool summons and contract them, but the professors’ evaluation criteria were slightly different.
I could start looking for powerful and rare summons after I became a senior.
What mattered now was how well I could handle my summons.
Even with the same summoned beast, there were contracts that required absolute loyalty, and there were contracts that were almost impossible to control, so care had to be taken.
Of course, Professor Millais did not expect first-year students to control summoned beasts with complex and thorough contracts. That was impossible at the first grade level.
What the professor expected was as much control as possible, even if it meant only a simple informal contract.
“Try to turn around.”
“round. Turn around. Please turn around. hey. please…!”
After Gainando spoke about 10 times, the skeleton warrior slowly turned around.
Professor Millay flicked his quill as if he knew.
“We were a little closer earlier, but I guess it was a bit difficult today.”
Guynando put his arm around the skeleton warrior’s shoulder as if to prove that he was friendly with him.
The skeleton warrior pushed his arm away as if he was annoyed.
“This time, try expressing the number 4 with your fingers.”
“Number 4… Number 4…”
Not only Gainando, but also Rapadel and Ymirg were similar.
There was a contract, but the detailed instructions were more annoying to the summons than expected.
When it was Lee Han’s turn, Professor Millais had to manage his expression to hide his anticipation.
As he was the student who achieved the best grades in the midterm exam, he was curious about how he would persuade the summons.
“Try to make him lie down.”
“Get down.”
Cheolpudeok!
The skeleton warrior immediately fell down.
It may sound awkward to say that the undead are disciplined, but there was no word that fit the expression right now.
“…the number 4 with your fingers…”
“Express the number 4.”
The skeleton warrior immediately folded his four fingers.
Professor Millais was dumbfounded.
As he was a master of summoning magic, he naturally realized how Lee Han was controlling the undead.
So now…
‘You’re coercing the undead into listening to your orders?’
In the end, it wasn’t the wrong method, but it couldn’t be helped that it was absurd.
It was an assignment to learn how to deal with powerful beings in preparation for meeting and making contracts with them later, but they just suppressed them with force.
“…Good job. “You get a perfect score.”
Although it was absurd, Professor Millais didn’t say anything.
That was also great because it was great.
“Good job. Gonadaltes.”
“……”
Professor Millais decided to pretend he didn’t hear what he just said.
