Episode 256
“Is it that difficult to express the number 4!? hey! “That’s 1!”
“Gainando. That’s not a 1, it’s a middle finger… no.”
Lee Han tried to give advice to Guy Nando but ended up giving it to him.
Becoming friendly with summoned animals is also a wizard’s job.
Rather than having Lee Han give advice, it would be best for Guy Nando to realize it on his own.
‘And it’s more annoying than anything.’
After completing his assignment, Lee Han quickly turned around. There were still a mountain of tasks remaining.
“Why do you keep doing 1… If you keep acting like this, my friend, the fearsome Archmage, won’t leave you alone! Lee Han? Lee Han!!”
Lee Han pretended not to hear and ran away.
* * *
“…What’s going on?”
Lee Han, who abandoned Gainando and ran to the alchemy classroom, stopped at the sight unfolding in front of him.
In front of the Phoenix Tower students led by Priest Syana, other students taking the alchemy lecture were waiting in a long line.
“Here it is.”
“Sobbing. Priest. thank you “There is only one priest.”
“You don’t have to be like that.”
“no! There is only one priest! So, if you could give me a little more…”
“It’s not possible. sorry.”
“please! “Please, just a little more!”
Cheers erupted from the students behind the row.
“Are you the only one doing homework?!”
“Can’t it go out quickly!? “You look like a dirty bastard!”
“…????”
Yoner appeared behind the embarrassed Ihan.
“It’s because of the assignment.”
“Because of the assignment?”
“huh.”
Sleepiness and fatigue piled up under Yoner’s eyes. Lee Han looked at his friend with a sad expression.
“The alchemy pre-final assignment is a lot more difficult than I thought, right?”
“It’s just very tricky.”
The kind, thunderous professor instructed me to make a potion of appropriate difficulty as a pre-final assignment.
-Make Aurum’s golden potion. It’s a potion that isn’t that difficult, so you can probably make it too.
Of course, the students were not fooled.
The difficulty of making Aurum’s golden potion itself was not that high.
The preparation process is relatively simple, and there are few additional steps required…
However, the ingredients used were horribly complicated.
First, you need to make a base by mixing the Lesser Mental Strengthening Potion and Setrivi’s Dew Potion, then add the Lesser Mental Strengthening Potion and Dobruk’s Blood Drop Potion, and then the Lesser Mental Strengthening Potion and Bele. Jen’s…
Since other potions A, B, C, D, E, etc. were needed to make one potion, this potion was already the main enemy of alchemists.
Even if the difficulty itself is not that high, it is natural to make a few mistakes at the first-year level. If you make a mistake even once, you will have to prepare a new potion from the beginning.
Re-create the Lesser Spirit Strengthening Potion, re-create Setrivi’s Dew Potion, and re-create Dobruk’s Blood Drop Potion…
Professor Thunderstruck said, ‘If you know how to make something like Aurum’s Golden Potion, you will make fewer mistakes and be able to make other potions skillfully,’ but the students were already planning to throw Professor Thunderstruck into the cauldron.
“I heard that the Phoenix Tower priests have a lot of <Lesser Mental Strengthening Potion>.”
“!”
Most religious denominations in the empire took as their banners such virtues as frugality, frugality, and devotion.
As such, Phoenix Tower students adapted to Einroguard faster than anyone else.
Not only that, but he also gave to other friends.
The living skills of the Phoenix Tower students who grew up working at the temple were not that far behind those of the Black Turtle Tower students.
-Would you like some dessert? I have a piece of black bread from school and coffee made from dandelion roots.
-…Ma… I am grateful, but Wardanaz will be waiting for me with dinner prepared, so I will be disappointed if I eat snacks!
And the place where this vitality was most clearly revealed was potion making.
Since everyone grew up in a temple, even if they didn’t major in alchemy, they helped and heard a lot about potion making.
While the White Tiger Tower students scoured the mountains and forests looking for game, and the Black Turtle Tower students collected various miscellaneous items to run the black market, the Phoenix Tower priests used their spare time to gather ingredients and make potions.
As such, there was quite a lot of <Lesser Mental Strengthening Potion>…
When things got like this, I decided to give it to my friends without any conditions.
“Oh my!”
Ihan sighed after hearing Yoner’s explanation.
“I should have gone to the Phoenix Tower… Ah. sorry. Joner. “I’m not dissatisfied with the Blue Dragon Tower.”
“Honestly, I don’t think anyone would say anything if they were dissatisfied with what you’re doing…”
Yoner thought that if they had a conscience, the Blue Dragon Tower students should keep quiet.
“And it’s a big waste for me too.”
“yes?”
Ihan and Yoner sighed together.
If you have surplus materials, you should barter them efficiently to increase your capital. They give it away for free.
Nasty students from other towers were taking advantage of the goodness of the Phoenix Tower priests.
‘If I had been there, I would have led the way.’
After sighing, Ihan stood in line with Yoner.
It was a pity, and if they were giving out potions, I had to take them.

“How many bottles of <Lesser Mental Strengthening Potion> will be enough?”
“Twenty bottles… no. “Honestly, I think I’d be a bit anxious about twenty bottles.”
“The final will be similar, right?”
“huh…”
Yoner’s face darkened.
The pre-final assignments were so grueling, I was worried about how damn… no, how difficult the final exam potion would be.
But Lee Han did not despair yet.
‘There is a way.’
Lee Han had plans to go out this weekend.
If you go out and buy all the useful alchemy ingredients and potions and come back…
No matter what problem Professor Thunder Gait raised, half of it was solved.
“Hehehe…”
“Ihan of the Wardanaz family?”
The Phoenix Tower priests tilted their heads when they did not answer even when Lee Han called.
Yoner was also a little embarrassed and tapped Ihan on the shoulder.
“what’s the matter? “Are you shocked by the assignment?”
“ah. “It’s not like that…”
“Hurry, hurry, get it!”
One of the White Tiger Tower students in line behind Lee Han grunted. When Lee Han stared, the student avoided his gaze.
“Priest Syana, a brilliant rising star of the Flemain Church. Nice to meet you.”
“It is nothing compared to Lee Han of the Wardanaz family, an insight and understanding of alchemy.”
Priest Syana welcomed us warmly and began putting potion bottles into the basket one by one.
The basket fills up in no time…
One more in the other basket…?
“?”
“??”
Ihan and Yoner looked at each other.
‘I think you’re giving more?’
‘You’re giving a lot, right?’
“ruler. Please take it.”
“Uh… thank you.”
Lee Han was slightly worried whether he should say, ‘I gave you a lot by mistake’ or just take it.
However, the student who took it first shouted as if it were absurd.
“Priest! “I think Wardanaz received twice as much as I did?!”
‘I think it’s about three times that much.’
In fact, it seemed like I caught twice as much.
“That’s right, because the one you just received was a potion given by the priest, and the one Mr. Wardanaz received was a potion given by Priest Syanna, a bright and bright rising star of the Flemain Church.”
“……”
“……”
“Do you have any complaints? Please give it back…”
“Oh, no.”
The student who had just been questioned quickly came to his senses and backed away.
“Priest Syana, who is like the Venus of the Flemain Church…”
“It would be too late to do it now. next!”
Lee Han thought to himself.
‘Tsk tsk. ‘I should have done it earlier.’
I always feel this way, but there was no harm in flattery in advance.
It was even more so when I saw them trying to do it so belatedly.
“Wardanaz…! “He even put the priest on the palm of his hand…!”
“Are you wearing eyes as decorations?”
Lee Han was dumbfounded by the other top student’s reaction.
How does this mean that Lee Han is controlling Priest Siana?
They didn’t do it in advance!
* * *
Professor Rosine, who is teaching <Basic Imperial Language and Logic>, praised the students as soon as they entered.
“and! Shiles student! “Professor Lightning Gait praised the horse under Shiles’ care for improving its condition.”
“Thank you, thank you.”
“Asan student! I heard that you brought a wonderful spirit with you. It’s great!”
“I was lucky. thank you!”
“Student Lee Han! Student Lee Han…”
Professor Rosine paused for a moment during Lee Han’s turn.
There were so many things to praise that I was momentarily confused about which one to choose.
“…Anyway, I’m doing well!”
“?!”
Lee Han was embarrassed.
“What did I do wrong?”
“Well… well?”
After that, Professor Rosine praised the students further and then stood in front.
At Einrogard, students who rarely received praise from their professors had their eyes shining with satisfied self-esteem.
“professor. “Is there no separate pre-final assignment for <Basic Imperial Language and Logic>?”
The professor answered happily in a bright and lively voice.
“ah! There are no separate pre-final assignments. “There’s a simple test instead!”
“……”
“Oh, no. “I trust Professor Plüwerk.”
The students’ faces turned gloomy due to the sudden surprise exam.
Some students did not give up their faith, saying, ‘But Professor Rosie is different.’
“Come in.”
Hello everyone.
At the sight of the gigantic devil coming in with a low-pitched voice full of pressure, the students’ impressions of ‘but the professor is different’ changed to hard.
Anyway, the professors at Einrogard…!
“Should I fight? “Isn’t fighting a test?”
“No way… would the professor still say that?”
“There are professors like that.”
“Don’t joke, Wardanaz! “It’s not funny at all!”
“……”
Lee Han slightly regretted not forcing his friends to go to Professor Boladi’s lecture.
“Mr. Oripulas here is an outstanding devil who served as an imperial magistrate for 131 years! “Why was it possible to have such a powerful demon serve as a magistrate?”
“Is it a contract?”
“It’s great! “Everyone applaud!”
The students’ applause was a little quieter and less energetic than last time.
“Of course Mr. Oripulas is a powerful devil. And it’s not easy for a wizard to make a contract with someone more powerful than himself! What should I do?”
“Uh… persuasion?”
“That’s correct! Everyone applaud!”
Clap clap clap.
“Today you will try a mock contract with this Mr. Oripulas! Mr. Oripulas will seriously consider and evaluate the conditions you have proposed, so please do your best to suggest them. “I’m sure talented students like you can do it!”
“????”
The students looked like they didn’t yet understand the situation.
I was glad we weren’t fighting…
How should I convince him?
“How should I convince you? Should I say I’m offering my heart and blood…?”
“Gold?”
“Your friend’s life?”
“A friend’s deck of cards?”
“do you want to die?”
“First, let’s start by asking what you like and have a light conversation…”
Meanwhile, one unlucky student was the first to sit in front of Oripulas.
Oripulas asked with a serious expression.
Why should I make a contract with you? Are you a pale young wizard?
“That… that. “If you sign a contract with me, I will give you gold coins…”
goldfinch? goldfinch?? Are you out of your mind now? Did he just make a contract for gold coins and evaluate me as someone who would help the wizard’s work? How on earth did you see me?
“S-sorry…!”
The student began to shed tears during Oripulas’ pressure interview.
The remaining students were upset.
this…
This is not normal!
* * *
-Ka, the card deck is…
-It’s not bad if it’s a joke, but it’s not worth it.
-To make your strength stronger, we will supply you with magical energy and potions if necessary…
-That’s only something to say when making a contract with someone weaker than you. What devil would ignore someone weaker than him saying such things? horsepower? It would be faster and stronger if I got it myself than if you gave it to me. liquid medicine? What I make is better than what you make…
-Sim… Do you like things like heart or blood?
-You should relearn basic manners.
‘You’re in big trouble.’
Lee Han was also nervous as he watched his friends being swept away by the autumn leaves.
Oripulas had more picky tastes than I thought.
I couldn’t even guess what the devil would like about what I had to offer.
‘Throw them one by one carefully to see the reaction. That’s all there is.’
“hello.”
hmm!
“Let’s go over the basics first. First of all, as a contractor, I will do my best to supply horsepower…”
pass.
“…yes?”
