Episode 384
Lee Han, who noticed the skeleton principal’s shocked gaze, quickly retreated.
“I was just asking. “In an academic sense.”
What kind of bone is that, and why does it sound like a jewel?
The skeleton principal said bluntly.
Perhaps the bones were too weak to withstand such spirits, but the bracelet made by carving it directly from the bones of the skeleton headmaster could not come off even if ten thousand demons shook it.
Of course, there was no need for jewelry.
‘It’s a shame.’
‘I think this kid is regretful.’
The skeleton principal looked at Lee Han and cursed.
A guy with no conscience like that…
If it were Professor Mortum, he would have shed tears of joy!
“Is there anything I should be careful about when using this bracelet? “Are you saying it absorbs a lot of magical power?”
I don’t even want to guess how much of a curse it must be if the bracelet is capable of absorbing your magical power. It’s not that dangerous.
“Tsk.”
…But it’s not that easy either. Think of the beings inside it.
Lee Han listened to the skeleton principal’s words and thought about it carefully.
According to what the Ghoul King said, the beings contained within this bracelet were those who were defeated by the Ghoul King.
then…
Do you understand? strong…
“Weak… uh. Are you strong?”
Then why would they have imprisoned the weak like that?
Principal Skeleton was taken aback by Lee Han’s words.
If they were weak beings, there would be no need to lock them up like that, and the skeleton headmaster wouldn’t have tied them into bracelets.
They are quite useful, so I guess they made them like that.
“I thought they were weaker than I thought because they lost to the King of Ghouls.”
The Skeleton Headmaster was originally a warlock who was ruthless towards the undead, but this time he sympathized with the king of ghouls.
I can’t believe I was being ignored like that by a pale, young first-year student.
How much pride must have been hurt.
You’d better be careful what you say. Because the guys inside might be listening. They might be busy fighting each other right now… but one day, maybe one of them will come out.
Inside that bracelet was a place like a miniature version of the dungeon that Lee Han had passed through.
The fierce and noble beings never cooperated even if they were defeated and trapped together. Rather, they tried to relieve their inextricable anger by trampling on each other.
Although Lee Han couldn’t see it, many souls were still fighting for their lives inside the bracelet.
However, if Lee Han’s skills improve and he becomes qualified to attract the interest of the souls trapped inside…
The spirits might stop fighting and try to talk to Lee Han.
“If you’re talking… are you saying you listen to my orders?”
well. You never know. The people trapped inside are all vicious and stupid.
‘You just told me to be careful what I say.’
But one thing is certain. You are the owner of the bracelet. They are trapped slaves. Make sure you realize that. Then they might be able to listen to orders.
“indeed. “Like Einrogard students…”
The skeleton principal ignored it, pretending not to hear it.
Meanwhile, Professor Garcia lifted Ogoldos as lightly as a straw.
“Let’s take him out first.”
Seeing this, Lee Han suddenly felt a surge of respect for the professor.
It was because he cared for his students, and not because he lifted Ogoldos lightly.
Rather than moving right away, it would be better to let them rest here for a day. If you force yourself to move it, it may wear off.
“principal…”
Lee Han was slightly moved.
I never thought the skeleton principal would take care of me like this.
As expected, even in Miuni and Gouni, there were only Einrogard people.
I’m talking about Ogoldos, not you. You are perfectly fine.
“……”
* * *
While Ogoldos was sleeping and resting comfortably at the inn, Lee Han asked Professor Garcia about the progress.
The fact that progress had been delayed for two weeks bothered Lee Han more than the fact that he was trapped for two weeks.
“You mean you’re two weeks late!? “I’m done now!”
“Student Lee, Lee Han. “I don’t think that will happen…”
“How can you keep up for two weeks!”
‘Isn’t it enough to keep up…’
Professor Garcia thought so in his heart, but did not dare to say it to Lee Han’s face, which was distorted with grief.
“Because it was the start of a new semester, no one taught much. “All the other professors only taught the basics.”
In Professor Garcia’s view, the progress that professors from other schools are making has already been achieved by Lee Han.
Honestly, I thought it would catch on even if I took a break for about 2 months instead of 2 weeks.
“So, what is Professor Garcia teaching this semester?”
“This semester, we are teaching magic that is useful in real life.”
As I introduced other schools of magic and taught them the basics in the first semester, I planned to teach magic that did not belong to any specific school but would be useful for young wizards to know in the second semester.
If you know these things, you will have an advantage in surviving in Einroguard.
“…I can’t believe I missed that lecture for two weeks!!”

“I’m going to teach you now, so calm down.”
The magic that Professor Garcia taught for two weeks was <Component Separation> and <Lesser Dark Vision>.
<Ingredients Separation> was a necessary magic for wizards preparing potions or reagents to separate a specific mixture using magical power, and <Lesser Dark Vision> was a magic that allowed one to see even in the dark, although it was unclear vision.
And both of them were magic that Lee Han had already learned first.
“uh. “It’s a magic we both know.”
“……”
Professor Garcia was disgusted with Lee Han for the first time in a long time.
“…I’ll explain the second semester lectures. “Because you probably didn’t hear it.”
“thank you.”
Unlike Professor Garcia, who taught <Basic Practical Magic>, most of the lectures did not change much.
Professor Thunder is still teaching <Advanced Understanding of Basic Alchemy>.
Similarly, <Advanced Basic Imperial Geometry and Arithmetic>, <Advanced Basic Imperial Language and Logic>, and <Advanced Basic Vehicle Training> were all lectures that were an extension of the first semester.
“Fortunately, none of the professors went missing, so it was maintained as is.”
“……”
Lee Han got goosebumps from Professor Garcia’s smile.
Can I say that so clearly now?
“for a moment. professor. In my case, I couldn’t apply because I was late. What should I do?”
“But don’t most students listen anyway?”
“……”
Lee Han was speechless.
Professor Garcia seemed to feel a little sorry and quickly changed his words.
“Well, that doesn’t mean you don’t need to apply. However, student Lee Han was not available, so I applied on his behalf.”
Lee Han accepted the paper that Professor Garcia held out.
Lectures were written that were almost similar to those in the first semester.
“professor. Why is something like the principal’s <Advanced Basic Magic Character Education> included?”
“yes? “It’s a required lecture… You took it in the first semester, right?”
Lee Han looked away as if he was disappointed that it didn’t work.
“……”
Professor Garcia glared at him, but Lee Han pretended not to see him and looked at the paper.
‘for a moment.’
Lee Han felt puzzled when he saw the list of lectures written under his name.
Basic Practical Magic – Garcia.
Understanding Basic Alchemy Volume 2 (Strokethrough) Advanced – Thunderous Step.
Intensifying repetitive learning of basic magic combat – Bagreg.
Magical character education!
…
“Why are the fonts all different?”
“ah. “Some professors came and wrote it in person.”
“……”
Lee Han widened his eyes.
Instead of Professor Garcia writing for him, the professors came and added their own lectures and left.
Is that okay?
“Is that really possible?!”
“Uh, weren’t you going to listen anyway?”
“That’s true, but you can’t listen…!”
“Is there anything you want to remove?”
“There isn’t one, but…”
“??”
Professor Garcia tilted his head, not knowing what was the problem with Lee Han.
‘It’s ominous for no reason.’
It was okay now, but the fact that that was possible made Lee Han afraid.
Of course, because it was an emergency situation, I had no choice but to act as a substitute, but don’t the professors at Einrogard tend to think of everything as an emergency if they are in an emergency?
During his second year, Lee Han resolved to submit his course while avoiding professors during the course registration period.
“…uh? Wait. professor. Why <Basic Dance and Social Social Enrichment>? “I’ve never heard of this?”
“yes? “I didn’t write it either?”
“??”
Professor Lee Han-do Garcia was also embarrassed.
Elective lectures that neither one took nor used were included in the list.
…I put it in.
“no…!”
Lee Han looked at the skeleton principal as if he had suffered the most cowardly betrayal in the world.
The headmaster was dumbfounded by the feeling of betrayal, as if someone had stolen his student’s soul.
Is adding one more lecture something to react like that?
“Why am I listening to that?!”
Emperor P… No, you are too focused on magic. I need to pick up some other hobbies too.
Professor Garcia almost nodded without thinking.
“So you take swordsmanship, you take vehicle training, you take geometry, and you take language.”
Normal young people in the Empire wouldn’t call it a hobby. Anyway, it’s already been decided so I can’t change it. Listen to that much.
“Don’t lie. “The principal’s magic can fix it.”
Seeing the student talking back to him without knowing what he was doing, the headmaster wanted to hit him, but he held back.
Later, when I met the emperor, if he said, ‘The principal hit me,’ he could have said, ‘Come to the capital immediately,’ and flown in.
Wait a minute, the knights are calling me from outside!
“principal!! principal!! I could seriously submit a letter to the imperial capital!”
The skeleton principal floated away and snorted.
I’ve heard all kinds of threats, but I’ve never heard a threat as absurd as that one! Try your best!
* * *
It was true that the knights called the skeleton headmaster.
“Mr. Gonadaltes. The adventurers were causing such a commotion that we investigated, and found that among them were criminals with a bounty on them. What about others…”
If one of the party members is a criminal, the disposition of the others becomes quite ambiguous.
Since there was sentiment but no physical evidence, it was neat to have the highest ranking person make the decision.
And the person in charge of this position was the skeleton principal.
The skeleton principal solved the problem neatly.
Do you guys know each other?
“no!”
“You idiot!! “I will answer the wizard’s question…”
That’s a lie. We know each other. Send him to the capital prison!
“no! no!!”
Among the screaming anti-magicists, Bakdgul was astonished.
I couldn’t believe how the great wizard of Einroguard knew about them and arrested them.
Regardless of resentment, his formidable ability was scary.
‘how…! How on earth! Was it foreknowledge through magic!? ‘This is ridiculous!’
While Principal Skull was praising the knights for their neat work, Lee Han came out and spoke to them.
“principal. “The senior has woken up.”
okay. Let’s leave quickly.
“But that dancing and socializing…”
really. You have one serious problem.
Ignoring what Lee Han said, Principal Skeleton changed the subject.
“What is that?”
Normally he should have been afraid, but Lee Han looked at the skeleton principal with distrust.
The knights next to him were shocked.
‘Anyway, is it okay to be so arrogant in front of Gonadaltes?’
‘How much love must I have…?!’
Because you have been in the undead dimension for so long, your soul is exuding evil energy.
If you hang out with spirits for a long time, the scent of the spirits will emanate from your soul, but if you hang out with the undead for a long time, the scent of the undead will emanate from your soul.
It wasn’t for nothing that warlocks were unpopular.
However, after hearing the explanation, Lee Han was puzzled.
“It doesn’t matter, does it?”
I wasn’t popular with the spirits anyway, and if I was going to learn black magic, it didn’t matter if I showed off a little fraud.
It was a bit sad, but…
It’s like that in the first place. If you’re learning magic, what’s the problem if the scent of magic comes from your soul? The problem is that your magical power is greater than you think, your morale is greater than you think, and finally, there are undead who have defeated your enemy.
A wizard who gave off the scent of a spirit was often visited by spirits, while a wizard who gave off the scent of the undead was often visited by the undead.
If you have a lot of magical power like Lee Han, are full of morale, and even have an undead enemy…
There was no telling what kind of dangerous undead would be interested in visiting.
Lee Han’s face hardened as he realized the seriousness of the situation.
‘Dark magic really has too many drawbacks!’
If you study magic diligently, you will receive a visit from the undead.
What kind of magic is this?
However, there is nothing to worry too much about. Because there is an easy way.
“Are you taking dancing and social classes?”
no. Stay at the Phoenix Tower. The energy of the priests will drive away morale. This semester will be enough.
The skeleton principal said as if it was no big deal. It wasn’t really a big deal.
Just by hanging out with the priests, that morale will decrease quickly.
However, Lee Han spoke in a serious voice.
“principal.”
why?
“Then wouldn’t my friends possibly starve to death?”
…People don’t starve to death that easily. maybe.
