Episode 296262
As it was late at night, Lee Han lay down on the bed as soon as he finished cleaning up after eating.
I was so distraught that I thought I wouldn’t be able to sleep, but perhaps because I was so tired, my eyes closed as soon as I laid my head on it.
And Lee Han had a nightmare where Professor Boladi brought a dragon.
-This isn’t real. I will appeal to His Majesty the Emperor.
-His Majesty also gave permission.
-Nonsense!
* * *
Lee Han, who woke up in the morning, sighed and poured coffee from the kettle into a cup.
Professor Boladi also walked out of the room shortly after. Lee Han noticed Professor Boladi pause while looking at his coffee.
“Do you like tea?”
The professor nodded. Lee Han was not embarrassed at all and put the tea leaves into the cup.
They didn’t know what to do, so they were preparing for every eventuality.
“Are you both awake? ah. As for coffee… no. “I will drink it well.”
“no. “Do you like warm milk?”
“That’s true, but…”
Amour was surprised to see Lee Han pouring milk into the glass right away.
Is it magic?
“With magic…?”
“I just prepared everything.”
“…??”
Professor Boladi, who was sipping his teacup, finally opened his mouth.
“Let’s go.”
“yes.”
“Good luck.”
Amour spoke to Ihan. Lee Han nodded his head and thanked him.
“thank you.”
“Good luck.”
“…thank you.”
“Seriously, good luck.”
“…You can stop. thank you.”
The back of Lee Han, who turned around and left with Professor Boladi, looked somehow sad.
* * *
“By the way, Professor. “Where are you going to purchase such a rare monster?”
Lee Han asked Professor Boladi.
Although Filone Village was not as prosperous and spacious as a city, it was one of the largest and most prosperous villages.
Since the best magic school in the empire is nearby, all kinds of people come and go from the village.
But even taking that into account, there weren’t that many places selling rare monsters. To begin with, there was no place like an Amur stable in a typical village.
‘Is this a place I don’t know?’
Lee Han had a rough idea of Filone Village as he had been out and about there a few times.
Is there a place that Lee Han doesn’t know about that sells rare monsters?
“I called the seller.”
“!”
Professor Boladi didn’t just rest.
On his day off, he sent a message to various parts of the empire saying he was looking for rare monsters.
Among the adventurers and explorers located throughout the vast empire, there were those who specialized in carrying out only these requests.
Many of them will probably have arrived at Filone Village by now, bringing the captured monsters with them.
After hearing the explanation, Lee Han cursed inwardly.
‘It’s not like adventurers get criticized for nothing.’
Rather than accepting the risk that someone will make an expensive request, shouldn’t you think about why you made that request?
What if a crazy wizard throws that monster at his student?
‘I will not forgive you.’
Lee Han once again pledged to destroy this deal.
“Hey! It’s here, it’s here! Wizard! Nice to meet you!”
From afar, an orc adventurer waved his hand. He was an orc adventurer wearing an outfit that seemed to shout ‘I am an expert’ throughout his body.
Behind it was a huge metal cage. It was covered tightly with black cloth, but I could guess what was inside.
“hello. This is Kilvedeq, whom I mentioned in the letter. for a moment. “Who is the person next to you?”
“student.”
“aha.”
Kilvedek paused, but continued speaking as if he didn’t really care.
“First, let me tell you about the monster I captured. Please forgive my rudeness in explaining without lifting the cloth.”
The two wizards nodded. The orc adventurer took a pause, raised his voice, and shouted.
“The monster I captured is… a basilisk!!”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised.
And I wondered if it would be self-defense even if I attacked the orc adventurer in front of me.
“basilisk! Of course, wizards would know this. The king of snakes and a monster with extremely petrifying evil eyes. “The agility to run from one end of the earth to the other in just a flick of the tongue, without being defeated by fire, water, or lightning…”
“Stop talking nonsense!”

Lee Han intervened resolutely.
I couldn’t just leave it like this. I had to somehow make the other person feel bad and turn them off.
“Their intentions are clearly visible. Among the many powerful monsters, there is no need to say a basilisk! I guess I needed an excuse to cover it with black cloth. You have to insist that people around you might get hurt if you remove the cloth! Does it make sense that someone who can trap a basilisk can’t wear an eyepatch? “I’m sure there’s a fake of similar size in there!”
“W…what is that…!”
Kilvedek stuttered after being pointed out something absurd. Lee Han was sorry, but he didn’t stop.
“Look at that person’s outfit. It’s definitely an expensive and worn-out outfit, but you can’t fool your hands. “Aren’t these hands without any wounds or scars!”
Lee Han began to insist on what he could see.
In fact, he could have been a seasoned adventurer even without cuts or scars on his hands. It could be because I recovered with healing magic, or because my skills were good, I didn’t get hurt.
But what was important was the atmosphere.
You have to keep complaining until the other person gets angry and says, ‘I can’t do this deal!’
“…Wrong! Hehehehehe!”
“?!?!”
Suddenly the orc adventurer fell flat on the floor.
“How dare I try to fool the wizards… I must have lost my mind for a moment! Please just spare my life! “Because of debt…!”
“……”
Lee Han was speechless. Meanwhile, Professor Boladi praised him from the side.
“Good job.”
“…thank you.”
“Turn it off.”
Professor Boladi kicked Kilvedek out without any sanctions or retaliation. Lee Han asked, puzzled.
“Did you know he was a fraud?”
“no. But I thought it was highly likely.”
Professor Boladi did not have much faith in adventurers to begin with.
That’s why I sent letters to all sorts of places and relayed requests to attract as many sellers as possible.
No matter how many times you call them, nine out of ten will be scammers.
“Well, I see.”
“Let me call the next person.”
‘I hope he’s a fraud.’
Lee Han suddenly felt hopeful.
If all adventurers are like this…!
* * *
“What do you think?”
“yes?”
“I asked what you thought.”
“Isn’t he… a good imperial adventurer?”
At first, Professor Boladi was probably too good at pointing out the orc adventurer’s suspicious nature, so he asked the same thing from Lee Han when the next adventurer came.
Of course, Lee Han did not have that ability.
‘shit. It was a rough throw.’
How could Lee Han know that everything he found fault with was true?
“Do you really think so?”
“It seems a bit… suspicious.”
“What is it?”
“…As long as you brought a rare monster first, that adventurer has no reason to be offended or worried. However, that person continues to look around and appears anxious.”
Of course, it could have been that he was just anxious about dealing with wizards or that he was in a hurry to go to the bathroom, but Lee Han ruthlessly criticized him.
“Shit! “This is why I hate wizards!”
“……”
Another adventurer left all his luggage and ran away.
And after that, three more adventurers were kicked out for trying to cheat (one of them brought an ordinary rabbit and claimed it was Al Miraz, a monster that even demons fear).
It was a good thing for Lee Han, but at this point, Lee Han began to doubt the ethics of the imperial adventurers.
‘Is the Empire okay?’
It made me wonder if adventurers should come to Einrogard even during vacation periods and receive ethics training from the skeleton headmaster.
“!”
Lee Han’s complexion hardened.
The adventurers who came this time felt an indescribable sense of discomfort throughout their bodies.
‘what?’
A strange sense of discomfort, as if it were touching my nerves.
Lee Han frowned because he couldn’t figure out its identity.
Professor Boladi spoke from the side.
“To live.”
“yes?”
“What you are feeling right now. “That’s living.”
“…!”
Lee Han raised his head.
Unlike the scammers earlier, the adventurers approaching now had a strong scent of blood.
‘Are they crazy?’
This isn’t too far from the magic school, and if you mess with the wizard of Einrogard, you’ll know how other wizards will react.
However, the adventurers in front of me were far from that logical way of thinking.
The wizard who comes to get the rare item will have a lot of gold, so he will do whatever it takes to get it!
Things like ‘what happened later’ or ‘revenge’ didn’t enter my mind. All I could think about was just taking a big hit and not getting caught.
“Wizard. “Please come here.”
“You have to come closer to see the monster.”
The slightly hoarse voices of the two adventurers showed a hint of greed that could not be hidden.
Lee Han clicked his tongue.
“Fools.”
“…!”
“Do you know who you are dealing with now?”
Other wizards might not have known it, but since the opponent was Professor Boladi, the future of those adventurers was as if planned.
“Who are you?”
The adventurer’s voice became a bit rougher as he realized that things were going a bit strangely.
widely-
“?”
Professor Boladi placed his hand on Lee Han’s shoulder. And he said.
“Take care of it.”
“yes?”
Professor Boladi nodded. He meant to deal with it.
Lee Han suddenly became embarrassed.
‘no…’
I tried to say to my opponent, ‘Do you know who you’re dealing with?’ and then watch Professor Boladi fight, but if that happens, isn’t he just a crazy person who says, ‘Do you know who I am?’
‘Do you really have to make me do this?’
“I asked who you were, right?”
“I don’t know anything.”
Lee Han spoke and pulled out his staff. At the same time, the adventurers also drew their weapons.
They were already suspicious of each other.
* * *
Doig and his two brothers were afraid of the wizard’s power, but at the same time, they were not reluctant to deal with the wizard.
What mattered was speed.
Although magic was the most powerful force in the empire, that powerful power was meaningless if it could not be manifested.
If the wizard sticks the blade into the body before casting the spell, that’s it.
The two adventurers drew their weapons. It was a bloody memorization made by a dwarven blacksmith who had a bounty placed on him by the Empire.
A memorization that fires a poisonous dagger with the power of fire and wind.
Not only was it a poison that paralyzed the wizard’s entire body, but the blade of the dagger was also made of turquoise that could penetrate defensive magic.
How many times have you seen wizards carrying defense artifacts fall down, clutching their chests with a look of disbelief on their faces?
Doig and Guido, who had no doubt that it would happen this time too, fell to the ground with their entire bodies burning in shock.
“…!”
Lee Han was taken aback when his opponent was knocked down by a single lightning spell.
‘what? Is it a trap?’
“Flash, flash, flash!”
Lee Han did not let down his guard.
What I learned while going through the dungeon with Professor Boladi is that you should never stop attacking a monster just because it is defeated.
There was no need to save magic anyway, but Lee Han used magic repeatedly.
“You can stop.”
“…ah. Did you really collapse?”
Professor Boladi nodded.
