Episode 030
Lee Han asked a question without realizing it.
In fact, the curse was similar to a buff spell in some ways.
What if weight loss is a curse for people who want to lose weight? If used well, it can actually be good.
A belt with a curse that absorbs magical power would make an average wizard say, ‘Hi! It was an item that people would hate and say, ‘Get rid of it!’, but for Lee Han, the story was a little different.
Lee Han…
The magic power was so overflowing that it was too much.
‘Is that something worth wearing seriously?’
I’m already wearing a metal bracelet that absorbs magical power, so wearing an extra belt wouldn’t change anything.
“Effective?”
“Well, since it’s a cursed item, isn’t it supposed to be effective?”
Magic also had action and reaction.
Cursed items often had more powerful effects than ordinary items in return.
In fact, if you don’t do that, who would bother wearing a cursed item?
“aha. Brother. That’s what you said. see…”
‘no. ‘Shouldn’t we remember the original performance instead of cursing?’
Lee Han was taken aback by the sight of the priest who remembered the curse on the item but could not remember its effect.
Isn’t this the end of the story?
“It was a belt with an invisibility spell. But it doesn’t really matter. What’s important is the curse… Anyway, brother. It’s okay to be honest. I can accept any answer…”
“What are you talking about? “I am prepared to do whatever it takes.”
Lee Han said with strong eyes. The priest was greatly shocked by that sight.
Unbelievable!
Of course, I thought he would give up and leave, but it was the priest himself who was mistaken.
‘It’s a shame! ‘I can’t believe I am a brother of true faith and am making hasty remarks.’
The priest no longer looked like the boy from a prestigious family where Lee Han had grown up.
Standing before the priest was a brother who was ready to seriously walk the path of faith.
“Brother. My name is Mehrid. “Tell me your name, brother.”
“Lee Han. “This is Ihan Wardanaz.”
‘Wardanaz!’
Mehrid was even more surprised.
The Wardanaz family. Isn’t this a famous non-believer family even in the empire?
Somehow, I thought he looked particularly elegant and dignified…
“The church will be happy to see you join. ruler. Here, please receive a belt in honor of this Prisinga.”
Although it was too grand a name for a cursed belt, Lee Han accepted it with a solemn expression.
widely-
As he put on his belt, Mehrid looked at Lee Han with a worried expression.
Brothers who were new to the church always had a hard time bearing the new burden of Pricinga.
It is bound to be difficult for those who experience a curse for the first time.
That belt that absorbs magical power may be too harsh for a student who has just entered school…
“How do I activate this invisibility spell?”
“…?!?!”
“??”
“Ah, that’s it… All you have to do is recite ‘I hide at night.’ When you want to solve it, recite ‘I am revealed in the morning.’”
“I hide at night.”
When Lee Han chanted the spell, his appearance became transparent like a lie.
‘oh…’
Lee Han was amazed.
Even though it was an invisibility magic, not all invisibility magic was the same.
The low-circle invisibility magic was just an invisibility spell, but it had the disadvantages of allowing a little light to pass through or showing something strange if you looked closely.
However, the invisibility magic of this belt seemed almost perfect.
‘It’s rewarding to wear a cursed item.’
“Hey, brother. “Are you… are you feeling okay?”
“Of course it’s okay. “I emerge in the morning.”
Lee Han released the spell.
Actually, before I put on the belt, I was a bit hoping that my magic power would decrease a bit so that I would only have a manageable amount left…
Surprisingly, it had no effect.
‘Looking at what you’re worried about, it seems like an item that absorbs quite a bit of magic power. ‘How can it not have this impact?’
At this level, it seems like the magic power recovered is more than the magic power absorbed by the iron bracelet or belt…
Lee Han, who became greedy, opened his mouth.
“Priest. “I want to carry a little more of Mr. Prisinga’s burden.”
“Huh…!”
Mehrid was greatly moved by this remarkable brother’s words.
But I couldn’t accept that.
Even just the belt you’re wearing right now would be quite a burden on your body…
“It’s not possible. Brother. Mr. Prisinga’s burden is not something that can be carried all at once. “I understand, but please wait a little longer.”
“no! “I have to carry more!”
“I know how you feel! Brother. “You have to wait!”

In the end, I failed to receive another artifact, but it didn’t mean there was no gain.
First of all, the invisibility belt alone is already a huge income.
Of course, what Lee Han will do with this is…
‘The number of escape methods has increased.’
After the last escape, Lee Han felt his own complacency keenly.
This school was crazier than I thought, and the principal was even crazier than I thought.
I didn’t know what pitfalls there would be in Lee Han’s future attempts.
At that time, this invisibility belt will protect Lee Han.
“… Thus, the first meeting was held to honor Prisinga’s will, and this became the beginning of the church. That’s all for today. “Brother.”
Priest Mehrid explained the history and rules of the church to Lee Han.
In fact, he wasn’t particularly interested in the history of the church, but Lee Han was a pro at listening to stories that didn’t interest him.
-Did I tell you about the last time I went to the golf course?
-I’m really curious. professor! Please speak quickly!
‘Actually, it wasn’t that boring.’
Aside from the history of the church, the rules and sacred magic were interesting.
And surprisingly, the Pricinga denomination had a truly free spirit, just as the principal said.
It is OK to believe in other denominations as well.
There is nothing forbidden, and you can live as you please.
…Except for wearing cursed items.
‘Except for one drawback, it’s a really good denomination, but that one drawback is too big.’
Lee Han also felt like he couldn’t, in good conscience, say to someone, ‘Do you like the Pricinga Church?’
Because one drawback was too big!
Moreover, the sacred magic used by the priests of the church all have such extreme tendencies…
Priest Mehrid, perhaps fearing that Lee Han might change his mind after hearing the church’s story, gave him a generous gift.
“ruler. Brother. Take this. I heard that new students at Einrogard often go hungry. Of course, the rumors may have been exaggerated…”
‘It’s not an exaggeration.’
Lee Han accepted the basket presented by the priest.
Just like the basket that the Church of Flemain presented to Yoner, the Church of Pricinga also filled the basket quite generously.
I felt the desperation to never let go of the believer I had once caught.
Jars of jams such as raspberry jam, marmalade jam, and peanut jam, as well as round, flat breads baked at the school.
Canned beef and pork are famous in the Empire and have magically sealed lids.
There were also favorite foods such as salt, sugar, coffee powder, and tea leaves.
Priest Mehrid spoke in a kind voice.
“I added it because I thought I needed a drink while studying.”
“I think it’s necessary for survival, not study…”
“yes?”
“it’s nothing. thank you.”
Lee Han bowed his head with joy.
Priest Mehrid seemed to have prepared this for Lee Han to eat while taking a break from studying, but considering the situation at school, this should not have been eaten as a refreshment during breaks, but had to be stored in the room for survival.
‘The human rights of students here will improve only if the church continues to visit.’
“When is the next event?”
“well. “I want to come as soon as possible, but I need the principal’s permission…”
‘shit.’
Even without listening to the backstory, I could tell that the priests wouldn’t be able to come for a while.
Given the principal’s personality, there’s no way he’d be invited often…
“It would be best if you take this too.”
“?!”
Tigiling, a demonic hybrid priest who is a new student in <Tower of the Eternally Burning Phoenix>, presented the basket he had received to Lee Han.
Lee Han was surprised.
what?
Are you just giving me this?
If I receive it, will I be making a contract with the devil?
“Why are you giving this to me?”
“I serve Pricinga. “This luxury is too much for me.”
“There is no need for that. Teajeeling. “I prepared it for you, so take it.”
Priest Mehrid seemed to want Tijeeling to take the basket as well, but Tijeeling refused.
‘Well. <Tower of the Eternally Burning Phoenix> has a really different atmosphere.’
Right now, the Blue Dragon Tower students that Lee Han belongs to have already forgotten the dignity of the great family and asked, ‘Hey, do you have anything to eat? doesn’t exist? I was rolling my eyes, thinking, ‘Is it really not there?’…
While the students of the Three Towers were doing this, the students of the Phoenix Tower were patiently managing themselves and persevering.
amazing!
But great things are great, and Lee Han had no intention of living like that.
“Thank you…”
“I. “Brother.”
“?”
Priest Mehrid took Lee Han to a corner.
“Could you please take care of Tijeeling? Considering the reputation of your family, I think it will be of great help to Tijeeling if you take care of it. As you can see, Tijeeling is very strict with himself.”
“yes? “I live in a different dorm…”
“please.”
Priest Mehrid took out another basket along with the horse and thrust it into Ihan. He was clearly a priest who knew something.
“ruler. “I will give you one more, so please eat the basket you gave Tijeeling so that he can eat it too.”
“All right. Just trust me.”
Lee Han, carrying three baskets, could not refuse the temptation.
Just eating together…

“Can I call you Tigiling Priest?”
“yes. “You can call me whatever you want.”
“What is the atmosphere of <Tower of the Eternally Burning Phoenix>?”
Lee Han asked curiously.
Unlike the White Tiger Tower or the Black Turtle Tower, the atmosphere of the Phoenix Tower was completely unknown.
The half-demon girl tilted her head as if she couldn’t understand the question.
“What are you talking about?”
“ah. So, what do you do in the break room during break time…”
“Everyone prays in their own room.”
Tigiling answered with a slightly proud voice. Lee Han was disgusted.
‘hmm. It was a much more desolate place than I thought.’
If Lee Han had entered the Tower of the Phoenix, he would have been suffocated.
“Do you pray in the evening too?”
“yes. “Some priests go outside because they have to go to the woods or mountains to pray, while priests who can pray indoors pray inside.”
“Right. …for a moment. “Can I go out in the evening?”
“yes. “I have permission.”
“!”
Lee Han was greatly surprised by the unexpected fact.
‘Were priests allowed to go around after dinner?’
Naturally, going out of the tower was prohibited after weekday evenings. It wasn’t for nothing that Lee Han and his friends tried to escape on the weekend.
But the students at the Tower of the Phoenix were allowed to do so.
Now that I think about it, even if Lee Han was the principal, I think he would have released the students at Phoenix Tower.
Even if you leave it like that, it won’t do anything…
‘Then doesn’t that mean I can go around after dinner as long as I wear a priest’s uniform?’
Lee Han felt like his eyes were brightening.
All you need is a priest’s uniform…!
“Can I get a priest’s uniform?”
“……”
Tigiling narrowed his eyes and looked at Lee Han.
