Episode 420
-That’s really fascinating. I don’t know what happened.
As the Death Knight next to him muttered in a curious voice, the skeleton headmaster spoke with a bone-clacking sound instead of a tongue-clicking sound.
There’s still a long way to go. I noticed right away.
-Is that so?
The Death Knight was surprised.
I can’t believe I’m now discovering the secret hidden in this mysterious scene.
As expected, I felt that my master deserved to be called the greatest sage in the empire.
Gonadaltes’ name was so famous that even the printing guild that produced the empire’s most popular magazine, Beast Man Detective Toberiz, always asked for advice.
The culprit must be Wardanaz.
-…?
The Death Knight looked at his owner with a puzzled gaze.
Of course, I knew that the more a Death Knight master loved his student, the more he tormented him, but wasn’t this completely unreasonable?
If you forcefully harass your student like that and he becomes crooked, it will be difficult to deal with it…
I’m not being unreasonable. You empty-headed bastard.
-All right. I trust you, master.
People who really believe don’t even say things like that. ruler. Think about it. I’m sure you can guess that first graders come and go here.
-that…
The Death Knight nodded.
Although the knights or wizards did not acknowledge it, looking at the atmosphere, it seemed clear that first year students had come and gone.
However, among the first-year students, the only one who is close to both the wizard and the knight is Wardanaz.
-But the ones who escaped were White Tiger Tower students, so how… and is that even possible, no matter how close we are…?
There must be something inside. Remember it well. Once you exclude all the impossible things, what’s left is the truth, no matter how strange it may seem.
The skeleton principal spoke in a voice full of wisdom. The Death Knight lowered her head with an admiring look in her eyes.
I knew they were close, but I didn’t know they could mediate between the two. You’re really talented too.
-yes. It’s still amazing. Two bastards…
Uh huh.
-sorry. Rude expression.
no. You can lower your voice and continue. The bastards are right. If you don’t listen to what you say, is that a human being?
The skeleton principal was truly amazed.
There were many geniuses in the vast empire.
Of course, Lee Han is a bit more special among those geniuses, but anyway…
Among Lee Han’s seniors, weren’t there a number of people who showed amazing talent in their field of study?
However, such geniuses were usually only interested in their own studies, and did not feed their friends, help professors with their work, or even mediate with outsiders when they had time.
But Lee Han was able to do that.
Looking at it now, it was clear that the knights and wizards also intervened.
This is not an easy task even for seasoned imperial officials…
It’s ridiculous to think about it. That’s what professors are supposed to do. Does this make sense? How can I be less sociable than my students?
The Death Knight thought to himself, ‘These are the professors the master brought with him, right?’ but remained silent.
Instead, I changed the topic.
-You must be truly happy that you have a disciple with outstanding talent.
That’s right. Now that I know I can do it to that extent, I can try other things in the future. What should I order next…
-……
Death Knight thought it might be a bit too much for a first year, but he remained silent.
A loyal pet knew when to be silent.
really. I almost forgot. Take charge of it and handle it.
-What do you mean? prize?
The Death Knight wondered if the skeleton principal would reward his students for the extra work they did.
To be honest, mediating between wizards and knights to get the job done was more difficult than defeating the evil demon archduke.
Are you crazy? What reward? Does Einroguard look so easy as to give a reward to the guy who ran away?
-…yes. sorry.
They told me to find out how Wardanaz escaped.
-Maybe he came out with the White Tiger Tower guys?
I thought so too at first, but now that I think about it, Wardanaz isn’t that shabby. You said you released the employee? It probably came out separately. Let’s take a look.
The Skeleton Principal was surprisingly strict about the rules he set.
Unless they were caught on the spot or left behind no physical evidence, students were not imprisoned based on their testimony or testimony alone.
If I lock you up, I will definitely catch you and make sure you can’t refute it!
-I am a first-year student. Wouldn’t it be difficult if it weren’t for these exceptional circumstances?
Yes, that carelessness is truly arrogant! I told you not to underestimate others. Keep this in mind! Erase the idea that it’s just a freshman. Think of it as a worn-out senior!
-…yes. All right…
* * *
Lee Han, who barely returned at dawn after a crazy weekend, got some sleep and woke up right in the morning.
Although the priests did not show it, they were excited about the sudden change in their breakfast menu.
“What day is today…?”
“no. “You have to eat this much for nutrition.”
Lee Han said to the priest who looked the thinnest, spreading a generous amount of jam on the outside of the bread and rolling it out.
One of the priests suddenly had an idea and asked:
“Did the Blue Dragon Tower students eat like this last semester?”

“Mostly, right?”
“ah…!”
The priests nodded as if they understood, saying, ‘I see!’
Somehow, during the first semester, the students at Blue Dragon Tower weren’t that desperate for snacks, and even when the priests tried to give them food, they said, ‘Haha, it’s okay, priests, please eat.’ But these days, I was concerned about the dull look in their eyes.
“no wonder…”
“But I think people who eat like that might get hungry if they don’t eat, so if I could give you some…”
When the priest tried to get up after putting egg custard, pumpkin pie, egg rice, and aged roast duck on a plate, Lee Han immediately warned him.
“People who bring food to other towers will inevitably be eliminated when the ranking is drawn.”
“Oh, no!”
“why…!?”
The priests who tried to deliver it were embarrassed.
As much as I wanted to awaken Lee Han’s next sacred magic to my own church’s sacred magic, I couldn’t be pushed out of that order.
“I don’t think I should eat this extravagantly…”
“I heard in the church that it is not good to eat like this…”
Lee Han ignored the priests’ complaints and fed them.
“Priest Tigiling. You put too little on your plate. “Let me give you more.”
“You’re serving me three plates right now… no, that’s too much…!”
The Tigiling priest hastily refused, but it didn’t work.
After happily looking around at the priests who were eating their fill, Lee Han turned his gaze outside.
‘Something is strange.’
Although he only attended for one semester, Lee Han had adapted to Einrogard very keenly.
Thanks to this, I could feel the atmosphere changing.
There are a lot of Death Knights wandering around the tower and castle walls, and undead summons that you have never seen before are flying in the sky…
There were many guesses as to why.
‘Anyway, the White Tiger Tower guys are no help.’
Of course, Lee Han, who participated in the request during that short weekend to make some money, was responsible to some extent, but it was White Tiger Top who caused a big fuss.
On that topic, they made arguments to Lee Han, saying things like, ‘It was nice to meet the knights,’ and they were unhelpful in any case.
‘Did I get caught?’
Lee Han glared at the spire.
I made a new request to the people present, but there were too many people. Lee Han also didn’t have much expectation that the secret would be kept.
Seeing as I wasn’t taken to the punishment room right away, I guess I was lucky because the skeleton principal didn’t catch the scene…
‘He’s definitely not someone I’ll just leave alone.’
It would be nice to believe that he went out with the White Tiger Tower students, but it didn’t seem like he would be that shabby. It seemed like it would be a good idea to be careful for a while.
‘I need to go out about 3 or 4 times a semester to have enough supplies…’
Despite the search, Lee Han’s soul was very peaceful.
We brought in a lot of supplies and had tickets to go out, so the situation was much better than we had expected.
There won’t be another Wizard’s Festival like last week, so if you just work hard on the assignments this week…
Kwa-dang-tang-tang-tang-tang!
Lee Han, who entered Professor Boladi’s classroom, rolled around.
The content of the lecture changed while I was not watching it.
“…Are you attacking us as soon as we enter?”
“Can not help it.”
Lee Han wasn’t really curious about the reason, but he held back and asked.
“Why?”
“Because the only way to block space movement magic at your level is through repeated training.”
“yes? Why the sudden space movement magic…? “I have to practice changing the form of lightning magic, and there is a lot to do…”
Lee Han was confused as he did not know where the diverse and relatively safe curriculum, such as caring for basilisk eggs and changing the form of lightning magic, was going and why it was suddenly changed to training in space movement magic countermeasures.
Then Professor Boladi showed the note.
To Boladi Bagrek
Ihan Wardanaz is frustrated after being defeated by a golem that uses space movement magic. to help you
Osu Gonadaltes
“……”
Lee Han’s expression distorted.
‘Are you saying this just because I went out? really?’
Of course, it was a note sent before going out, but Lee Han didn’t know that fact.
Just lock them in a punishment room!
“…So what about the space movement magic now?”
“okay. “You might encounter something someday, so it would be better to prepare in advance.”
Professor Boladi spoke in a serious voice.
Principal Skeleton’s point was valid.
Wouldn’t his life be in danger if Lee Han later, while wandering around the most remote and gloomy parts of the empire, encounters a battle mage who has specialized in space movement magic all his life?
“……”
Lee Han had to hold back the words, ‘Why, teach me how to deal with dragons too?’ coming out of his throat.
If Professor Boladi had said something like that, he might have said ‘I see, I understand’ and had him prepare to become a dragon slayer from that day on.
All Lee Han could do was be slightly sarcastic.
“I am really glad that I learned in advance how to deal with a battle mage who specializes in space magic, whom I am likely to meet at least once or twice in my life.”
“is it?”
Professor Boladi was satisfied when Lee Han was happy.
As a teacher, it was a matter of pride for me to give my students the teachings they wanted.
“From now on, please speak directly.”
Professor Boladi thought that Lee Han failed to speak directly out of respect for his teacher as a student.
“…I will speak directly, so please do not listen to what other professors say. “Usually, whenever something is said between one or two people, misunderstandings arise, right?”
“That could be possible.”
Professor Boladi nodded as if he understood. Lee Han sighed.
“Space movement magic is one of the most difficult magic to counter when used aggressively. Because there are no omens.”
Space-time magic was among the most esoteric and difficult magic among magic schools.
As such, there were few wizards who knew how to use space movement magic, and there were few wizards who could cast it quickly and accurately enough to use it in battle.
Also, what about magical power consumption? If you want to kill an opponent, all you need is a single arrow, but there is no need to use such complicated magic.
“professor. As you just said, do we really need to prepare for something like that?”
“But we still met. “What happened once can happen twice.”
“……”
When I was refuted by Professor Boladi’s words, it was when I felt the most self-destructive.
I can’t believe I have to lose to that kind of logic.
“There are few ways to respond, but they are not nonexistent.”
As the Skeleton Headmaster said, there was no gap in space movement magic, but there was a gap in the person who used it.
If you can predict the opponent’s pattern in advance, you can avoid even the most powerful magic.
“It is precognitive magic.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised at how much better it was than expected.
Precognition magic was definitely suitable for the current situation.
“Oh. “So there’s no need to learn it by getting hit with your body?”
“no. “You have to be hit a lot to use precognitive magic.”
Lee Han instinctively threw his body to the side without realizing it. Sure enough, a chair appeared where Lee Han was and flew in.
Before he could feel relieved, a desk appeared behind him and struck Lee Han. Lee Han rolled around on the classroom floor.
“The first dodge was excellent. “You have talent.”
“That’s not precognitive magic, it’s just luck…”
Lee Han didn’t even have time to reply. The attack began again.
