Episode 323
“Sleep…”
Before Dirette could call, Lee Han punched the adventurer who had just spoken in the chin.
“Oops!”
“Try saying it again.”
Lee Han, who pulled out the Morning Star with its entire scabbard, struck the other adventurer’s solar plexus without stopping. The adventurer who was hit hard fell forward, foaming at the mouth.
“Crazy…!”
“Do you want me to say it again?”
puck! Puk puk puk!
When the adventurers fell, Lee Han beat them up like he was beating up a White Tiger Tower student.
Then the response came right away.
“Well… I was wrong…!”
“What did I do wrong?”
“That’s that…”
“You got hit less.”
Lee Han swung his sword again. The adventurers screamed and crouched.
People passing by looked at them with interest, saying, ‘There’s a fight again,’ but no one intervened.
Thanks to this, I was able to beat up only Lee Han with ease.
“Ugh… the warlocks called me a grave robber…”
“It’s still not enough.”
“yes? What do you mean… khaak!”
“Think about it. “Why can’t these people who creatively frame people for stealing corpses creatively apologize?”
When you get beaten up, you develop intelligence that you didn’t have before.
Only then did the adventurers realize.
“The great warlocks…?”
“more.”
“I am sorry for framing the great warlocks who protect the city as grave robbers…!”
“okay. “It’s already hard to protect the city, so why should I be framed like that?”
“I was wrong…”
The beaten adventurers staggered and responded.
“Keep in mind that words have a lot of power. “I have reflected on my actions, so I will forgive you.”
“Thank you!”
The adventurers cursed the crazy warlocks in their minds.
From now on, I won’t even go near the graveyard.
‘To shamelessly hide a knight…’
“Follow me.”
“yes?”
“Follow me. “Now that I’ve reflected, I have to help with my work.”
“……”
The adventurers were taken aback by the logic they heard for the first time, but Lee Han kindly persuaded them again.
The adventurers shouted at the same time as they aimed their swords.
“Please help me!”
“I thought so.”
Direth, who was watching from below, asked in bewilderment.
“…Does anyone know what that thing is doing right now?”
* * *
“indeed. “In places where the flow of magical energy is strong, the stagnant magical energy is released by changing the terrain.”
Explanation continues again.
Lee Han nodded after listening to Delet’s explanation.
If an abnormally large amount of magic power is concentrated in one place, the possibility of abnormal phenomena occurring also increases, so it was necessary to find such places first and somehow disturb the magic power.
“ruler. Then, dig up that soil, bring in new soil, and mix it in.”
“……”
“……”
The adventurers silently lifted the shovel and loosened the dirt. Lee Han was happy and encouraged.
“You’re good at it. “Once we finish the work on that side, let’s proceed under the fence on this side.”
“You all do a great job!”
“Gainando. “You shouldn’t play either.”
“I’m not confident because I don’t use earth magic.”
“Then you have to spread it by hand. ruler.”
“……”
Delet thought about this strange sight.
‘It’s a lot different from what I expected…’
I thought of the heartwarming sight of seniors teaching, juniors learning, and working together to prevent accidents, but I didn’t think of the prisoners’ labor.
Progress is fast, but…!
“Lee Han. “Is this a place where a lot of magical energy is gathered?”
“Good find. “It is a place where more magical energy is gathered than other places.”
“Whoa, Wodanaz. here is?”
“Wait a minute… I don’t think there’s any need to touch this place. “Compared to other places, it’s not that much, and the magic flow is fluid, so it seems likely that it will go down again.”

However, aside from the fact that he captured adventurers on the road and forced them to work for him, Lee Han was definitely an outstanding junior.
He has an overwhelming ability to detect magic power compared to others, and a brain that allows him to work efficiently.
To anyone who saw him writing a journal on paper and organizing places where magical power might be stored, he looked like a warlock who had been working for several years.
‘I guess there’s nothing I can teach you at this level…?’
“senior.”
‘But as a senior, I have to teach you something. What do you teach? ‘Is there any useful black magic?’
“?”
Lee Han was puzzled as Direth was alone in his thoughts.
What are you thinking?
“Is there a problem?”
“uh? “When did you come?”
“I was there just now… but I came to ask what should be done if the discovery was too late and the magic cannot be disturbed.”
“Oops… I should have explained that to you.”
Delet felt sorry.
My junior was so good at handling his work that I forgot about it.
“In that case, you have to use some rough methods. One way is to use the holy water or holy relics blessed here at the temple…”
The items blessed by the church were the opposite of the negative energy type magical powers. If the two collided, the accumulated magic power could be dissipated due to the collision.
“Or you could solve it with magic, but that would be a bit difficult. Junior. “Do you know how to use the dark element?”
While Direth asked, he naturally thought that Lee Han had not learned it yet.
The area of black magic that I was dealing with as a first year student was quite wide.
It’s hard to follow those areas, so how can you learn high-difficulty elemental magic like the dark element?
“I can only use the basics. “It is impossible to completely control it, but…”
“okay. Of course… of course what???”
Delet tried to ignore it but was surprised.
Is Professor Mortum crazy??
“Did Professor Mortum teach you? why? when??”
“ah. “Professor Mortum didn’t teach me… he taught me that I needed another professor.”
‘What is this crazy person doing?’
Delet cursed at the professor who taught Lee Han the dark element.
No matter how necessary it may be, does it make sense to teach the dark element to first graders?
“Well…yeah. I see.”
“As I said, it’s impossible to completely control it, so I don’t think you should expect it.”
“I didn’t expect it! “Some crazy senior expects a first-year junior to use the dark element!”
Delet shouted as if he was astonished.
Then I remembered what happened in the first semester.
Starting with the King of the Frost Giants and ending with the final assignment.
That person was the ugly fourth grader who dragged the first graders into his work.
“…no. Even if you think that way, junior, I have nothing to say.”
“??”
“The dark element… Of course, it is difficult to control it perfectly. “I can’t control it either.”
“Is that so?”
“It’s an element of such high difficulty. “It’s completely different from something like the fire element.”
“I can’t even completely control the fire element.”
“…Yeah, really?”
Delet was embarrassed.
Honestly, I was surprised that Lee Han couldn’t control an element as easy as fire.
“Everyone has different elemental aptitudes, so don’t worry too much. Junior. What elemental magic do you mainly use?”
“First, let’s have water…”
“Look. So yeah. It may not be compatible with the fire element. Junior.”
“Lightning and ice?”
“……”
Delet looked at Lee Han in bewilderment.
Are you kidding me?
* * *
After a longer conversation than expected, Delet was able to understand.
“aha. Because of magical power… well. That explains it. Junior.”
The capital of the frost giants, and the final exam task of defeating the devil.
If what Lee Han just explained was true, I understood it to some extent.
Of course, in a corner of my mind, the thought remained, ‘But how much magic power does it take to do that?’
“wait for a sec. Junior. I heard you know how to use the lightning element and the ice element? Since there is a lot of magic power, the already difficult advanced elements will be even more difficult, right?”
“ah. “I see.”
“…is that the end?”
“I can only say that I was lucky because we got along well from the beginning.”
“……”
For the first time, Delet felt like hitting his junior.
This is why geniuses are…!
In short, even though he has a lot of magical power, doesn’t it mean that he was born with a talent that allows him to control the lightning element and the ice element?
It was truly a disgusting thing to say.
In addition, the two elements were difficult to implement before control. Even if you implement just one of the two, you will be considered talented in elemental magic, but you know how to implement both easily.
“I think lightning and ice elements are enough.”
“But fire and darkness are difficult to control.”
“Junior… I really want it. You can’t have everything. This is especially true because the two elements have the property of expanding to their surroundings. Anyway, the dark element… If you know how to handle it, it’s easy to do this kind of work. “It’s difficult.”
Delet paused for a moment and waved his cane.
Then, black darkness began to surround Direth’s staff, and it took the shape of a spear.
“see? It’s difficult, so answer quickly. Junior.”
“I can see it.”
Delet stabbed the tip of the spear in that state. The weeds located in the pricked area lost their vitality and died.
“For your information, this is not completely under control. I just roughly figured out the shape. See you at the end.”
As Delet said, the exterior of the window was rough and shaky.
“It would be nice to have complete control, but that doesn’t mean you can’t use it even before that. Give up perfect control and only use the properties of the elements. Even if you’re not a fire magic master, everyone knows how to use a torch. “In the end, it’s the trick.”
“indeed…”
“Let’s give it a try. Junior. The simplest… yes. A sphere shape would be nice. “Shoot at the sphere.”
Lee Han summoned the dark element as Direth said.
And like other elements, it was collected in the form of a sphere.
Pop!
Then, like a compressed flame exploding, dark elements flew out in all directions.
“Darkness, gather at this end!”
Direth was startled and swung his staff to control the dark element.
“Why does it explode!?”
“It seems like there is a lot of magic power.”
“…I was wrong. Junior. “I thought about it based on my standards.”
Delet frowned as if he was in trouble.
Unlike himself, this junior did not have any loose control.
If he is not controlled with a force several times stronger than that of other wizards, the elements will run wild due to his immense magical power.
“I’m fine. “It’s not even your fault.”
“Wait a moment. Still, I am a senior. “I brought this up, so I should at least give you some advice.”
Direth was lost in thought, drawing on all of his knowledge about the dark element.
What advice would be helpful to a junior like that?
‘Should we look for a more controllable form? No, it won’t change much. If you give up control altogether and use it by calling it out… it won’t work. Fire is dangerous, but darkness is even more so. It will scatter in all directions, but if it scatters incorrectly, it will be like stabbing yourself. Should I apply some other magic? Now that I think about it, I would also listen to enchantment. It might be safer to use it as an enchantment. However, the enchantment must be quite difficult… What were some of the magic from other schools?’
“senior! senior!”
“?”
Delet raised his head at Lee Han’s call.
On top of the staff, a sphere made of dark elements was spinning around while maintaining its shape.
“Thanks to your advice, I succeeded!”
“…Junior. Do you really think it was thanks to my advice??”
I was wondering if there was another way, but I was speechless when I saw him easily jump over the blocked part while I wasn’t looking at him for a moment.
What on earth is that…
