Episode 326
“I thought you also gave in in this way.”
“What did you think of me, junior?”
“No… otherwise there is no reason to give in. “We went after them all.”
“As expected, it’s Lee Han.”
Gainando nodded as if he knew that would happen.
Gainando’s friend was one who would not let even a single piece of bread be taken away.
“Junior. It’s good to be shrewd, but if you’re too vicious, bad rumors may spread about the warlock.”
“But senior. “Warlocks already have a bad reputation.”
“……”
Dirette’s wings were slightly drooped after being hit by a junior.
Gainando whispered next to him.
“Why are you saying that! “Only people who don’t know do that!”
“no. Quite a few people would say that.”
“…really?”
“really. “Why would the people who were caught and dragged in there immediately start a fight while passing by?”
“!”
“Well, we reflected.”
Two adventurers who make a mistake, get beaten up, do chores in a cemetery, and end up chasing an undead chimera.
It could be said that they were the fiercest group today.
“senior. There is nothing to be sad about though. “Those who know the truth will not be deceived.”
“…What’s the use if everyone else thinks negatively of you?”
“We can change it.”
Direth’s eyes slightly wavered at his junior’s progressive words.
I certainly didn’t know what my junior said might be right.
Just as we have dedicated ourselves to the city today, if we continue to build performance even if others doubt us, people’s views will change little by little, if not immediately.
‘I can’t believe I heard something like this from my junior. ‘I should have done it.’
Delet was embarrassed as a senior.
“That is correct. Junior.”
“Thank you for your understanding. senior. From now on, if we see someone talking nonsense about black magic, let’s kick them down like they did.”
“…no!! “I didn’t mean it that way!!!”
“Wasn’t it?”
Direth was startled by the belligerent words of his junior that even a magic duelist would swear at.
What does it mean to attack people who talk nonsense and change their minds every time they come across it?
bang!
With a loud noise, two apprentice knights flew into the air.
The cornered undead chimera exploded from its body and broke through the siege.
When the siege was breached, the apprentice knights shouted in surprise.
“He’s running away!!!”
“Be careful haha… ah!! Wodanaz! It’s Wodanaz! Wardanaaz!!”
“what?! Wardanaz!? That Wodanaz?”
“okay! It’s that Wodanaz!”
“……”
When the apprentice knights who visited the school the other day recognized Lee Han’s face and started acting friendly, Lee Han made a shocked expression.
‘I don’t think we’re that close.’
Anyone who sees you will probably think that you are quite friendly.
“Wardanaz! Catch him!! “If he runs away…”
Even before the apprentice knights asked, Lee Han had already started preparing with his cane.
There was no way I was going to let the undead chimera escape after chasing it like that.
-■■■■…!
The undead chimera glared at Lee Han while making a growling sound. Nine eyes wandered and stared at Lee Han.
Because of the harsh treatment earlier, his eyes were full of caution. I felt like he was going to find a loophole in Lee Han somehow, give him a punch, and then run away.
“Darkness. “Gather here.”
Lee Han did not hastily use lightning magic.
There were trainee knights behind him, so not only was it not a good environment to fire wildly, but he was also very wary.
The advantage of a wizard is that he or she can respond flexibly to any situation.
As Lee Han learned how to deal with Delet, he immediately gathered the dark elements around him.
-■!
The undead chimera didn’t know what Lee Han was doing, but he seemed to feel his strength draining away.
I quickly jumped back and tried to increase the distance.
-■■■■!?
But it was no use.
‘The range…!’
Among them, Dilet, a unique warlock who knew how to use dark elemental magic, was able to understand what was happening.
That junior’s magic was gathering dark elements from a much wider range than Direth’s.
‘…amazing!’
While he was admiring his junior’s magic, Lee Han urgently shouted.
“senior!”

“uh? why?”
“A lot of dark elements have gathered! If I make a mistake, please help me!”
“…hey!”
Direth screamed when he saw the dark elemental sphere gathered at the tip of Ihan’s staff.
At first glance, it was two or three times the size of what was cast earlier.
Since I cast it against a very wide area, even though it took less time than before, it gathered as much as I did in an instant.
“What are you going to do?!”
Even if you try to fire it as a projectile, you have to control it to some extent, but if you force it now, it could explode from the tip of the staff and hurt your junior.
Delet did not understand how Lee Han was trying to deal with that dark element.
Sigh!
“……”
Lee Han solved the problem in a simpler and simpler way than expected.
He rushed in with his staff in hand and thrust the sphere into the undead chimera. The undead chimera was unable to avoid the charge that occurred in the blink of an eye.
-■■■?
Delet was embarrassed.
‘Wait a minute, the dark element has the opposite effect against undead…!’
Lee Han threw his staff aside and drew his sword.
The Morning Star flashed its sword light and tore the body of the undead chimera apart.
The reason I drew in the surrounding dark elements in the first place was to slow down the opponent’s movements and tie them down.
Once that was achieved, there were many ways to crush the opponent.
The powerful strike, propelled by explosive magical power, struck the undead chimera, and the subsequent vampire strike broke its balance.
After attacking him continuously without a moment to breathe, cheers erupted as he cut off his head.
“As expected, Wardanaz!”
“excellent!! “That sword technique is still the same!”
“friend?”
Lee Han answered Direth’s question firmly.
“Not a friend.”
* * *
Wikelinz came out late and thanked Lee Han.
“Thank you. “The young knights’ mistakes almost made it worse, but you helped them.”
“I just did what I had to do.”
“indeed…”
Wikelinz continued speaking in a slightly impressed voice.
“Some people are prejudiced and misunderstand because of the magic of the warlocks, but if you see the warlocks here devoting themselves day and night, you wouldn’t dare say that!”
“thank you.”
Lee Han answered like that, but inside he had other thoughts.
‘But other warlocks cause too many accidents.’
Even if Lee Han caught the undead in Hundred Days City, it would be of little use if the warlocks were caught entering the tomb and stealing the corpse.
Al-Adneh, who came out late, looked puzzled at the situation in front of the mansion and asked.
“What happened?”
“Wardanaz caught it.”
The governor of the mansion answered with a bit of regret.
“If the guests of the mansion had caught it instead of someone from outside, Mr. Greenbell would have saved his face a little more.”
“……”
Al-Adne looked away, thinking that he would have to lecture the governor after the guests left.
The undead chimera was clearly shattered. There were traces of being hit by a few magic spells, there were sword marks that looked like they had been swung by apprentice knights, and the fatal blow was…
“???”
Al-Adne wondered if he had seen it wrong.
‘I think he caught it with a sword…?’
I thought I had seen something wrong, so I watched it again, but nothing changed. She apparently cut off her life with a sword.
Al-Adne became confused, wondering if the apprentice knights and warlocks gathered here were deceiving him.
Is there any reason to cheat??
“Mr. Greenbell. Thank you for your kindness.”
“no. “You have come forward in this way for the city of Grandeur, and I am sorry for not being able to provide more help.”
‘You’re too kind.’
Lee Han was puzzled when he saw Al-Adneh’s attitude.
Aside from the rumors going around that he was thorough and had no flaws, he was overly favorable.
Is it really because of the Wardanaz family name?
‘Anyway, is there any reason to do this?’
Lee Han could never have imagined it.
Al-Adne misunderstands that Lee Han is an extremely ambitious person.
‘Anyway, I helped you, so I should be grateful.’
Lee Han bowed politely once again and walked to another place. Apprentice knights who were familiar with Lee Han came excitedly.
Seeing this, Al-Adne asked Wikelinz.
“Is there any student from the Wardanaz family who is acquainted with the apprentice knights of the Order?”
“ah. That happened the last time I visited Einrogard. As for what happened…”
Wikelinz began to unpack the bundle of stories as if everything had gone well.
It’s always a pleasure to meet an outstanding prosecutor.
So Wikelinz did not notice that Al-Adneh’s expression, as he was listening to the story, was colored with shock and bewilderment.
* * *
-Wardanaz. I heard that the king of ghouls was captured. But did you know? The white tiger towers are actually plants in a greenhouse.
-that’s right. Wardanaz. What is truly strong are the wild flowers that bloomed after enduring harsh hardships in the wild.
-So, let’s go catch the king of ghouls together!
‘It’s full of crazy people.’
Lee Han shook his head, recalling the conversation between the apprentice knights.
The apprentice knights were burning with the desire to win, as if they had strangely heard the rumor that the White Tiger Tower guys and Lee Han had subdued the king of ghouls.
However, I can’t take my rival White Tiger Tower with me as a wizard…
The apprentice knights wanted to take with them a friend who was a much better wizard and had become a sword-fighter.
Of course, from Lee Han’s perspective, it was just crazy bullshit. Lee Han reported right away.
-Bikelinz. The apprentice knights over there are plotting to catch an enemy stronger than their level.
-that…! These guys!
It was fortunate that Wikelinz was sane. Otherwise, the apprentice knights could have collapsed in a remote, unknown cave.
Delet asked as if he was worried about Lee Han.
“Are you okay, junior? As expected, due to the use of magic earlier, there was a lack of magical power…”
“ah. no. “It’s just because the apprentice knights are talking nonsense.”
“……”
Delet decided not to worry about magic related to this junior from now on.
When I returned to the cemetery, I saw a familiar face among the gravediggers.
It was Daihal of the Dalkad family, a special imperial administrator whom I had previously met in relation to the subjugation of the King of Ghouls.
“I couldn’t believe it, but really…!”
When Daihal saw Lee Han, he spoke in a voice full of awe.
“It’s been less than a week and you’re caught up in something like this. “Aren’t you being too self-sufficient?”
“Junior. “What did you do a week ago?”
Delet was puzzled. There had been no news about the King of Ghouls yet.
Lee Han took a look at the cemetery and quickly shook his head.
And then he got down on one knee.
“Ugh. “I used so much magic that my body…”
“So what did you say! No matter how talented you are, it’s meaningless if you can’t take care of your own body.”
“B-but… as a warlock… the undead roaming around Grandeur City… kolok. “Cough.”
Delet and Lee Han’s friends looked at Lee Han, speechless.
I couldn’t believe it when I saw my friend, who hadn’t even broken a sweat just a moment ago, stumble and do that as soon as he passed the main gate of the cemetery.
Ymirg whispered.
“Grave… Is there poison in the cemetery?”
“The poison won’t work on Lee Han, right?”
“What is that… ah. no way.”
While the three were whispering, Lee Han pretended to be even more distressed in front of Daihal.
There was something I realized after the last time I defeated the King of Ghouls.
Even if you are doing the same job, it is good to show that you worked as hard as possible!
It was a magic that easily increased rewards.
“If my senior here hadn’t helped me, I might have died…”
“You are Direth. “I heard a lot of stories from gravediggers.”
“I just do what I have to do…”
“For such dedicated warlocks… the city people are very harsh. “I will definitely say this strongly.”
“No, the pay is already good enough…”
“Cluck cluck cluck!”
Lee Han cleared his throat and cut off his senior.
