Episode 427
Lee Han, who had already mastered more difficult spells such as <Grant Light of Truth> and <Grant Essence>, but was stuck in <Grant Latent Heat>, his friends were embarrassed as they did not know how to give him advice.
However, Professor Verdus was different because he was also a professor. As soon as he saw it, he grasped the situation and skillfully advised.
“Relax! you idiot!”
“……”
Salko was slightly excited when he saw Lee Han’s fist clenched.
‘Could it be possible to hit the professor? no. Anyway, that’s true. But if it’s that Wodanaz guy… he might be able to do it.’
“Magic power is not something that can be put in and out so easily.”
“It’s easy… right?”
“It’s not that difficult…sigh.”
The friends next to me who had answered inadvertently noticed me and lowered their heads.
If you don’t have a lot of horsepower, controlling the horsepower isn’t that difficult.
To be honest, increasing horsepower is more difficult than reducing it…
“Ugh. I can’t help it. I will help you. ruler. Try again. “Remove your strength.”
“No… it’s okay. “I can practice alone.”
Lee Han said that with sincerity.
Honestly, I thought it would be better for Lee Han to practice alone rather than with Professor Verdus helping him.
“no. Gonadaltes told me to take care of you.”
“Isn’t this something you are taking care of?”
“no. “I’m taking care of you.”
“It seems like you don’t know what it means to take care of.”
“I know. ruler. I will help you! Relax! ruler. From there, reduce the horsepower amount to approximately 1/14!”
“How do you mean?”
“Just feel it!”
“……”
* * *
In the end, Lee Han was only able to master <Grant Latent Heat> (he felt sorry for his friends who took up his time as if it were their own business).
However, in Lee Han’s opinion, this was not because his friends were wasting his time, but because Professor Verdus was beside him and was going crazy.
If it weren’t for Professor Verdus, I could have learned everything within the lecture time.
“…That’s why I didn’t learn it all. “It’s really because of Professor Verdus.”
“…Is that so?”
The Tigiling priest looked at Lee Han with a puzzled gaze.
I just said, ‘How was today’s lecture?’ as a normal greeting, but I never thought I would get such a long reply.
“By the way, Wodanaz. As far as I know, those types of magic are not taught in one lecture, but are taught over several sessions…”
“Of course.”
“Then there’s no need to be nervous, right?”
“That’s not true. “If you take your time because you have plenty of time, you can get overtaken by other friends.”
“?”
The Tigiling priest stopped the ladle stirring the warm beef stew and tilted his head.
“From what I heard, the other students only practiced one magic today?”
As the level of difficulty was high, the friends all chose just one magic and refined and practiced it diligently.
“It did.”
“But how do you get overtaken?”
“Suddenly master it and learn other magic, or practice it while I’m taking other classes. And if you have a lot of friends like that, you get upset and go from A to B. It happens surprisingly often. “Priest Tigiling.”
“…????”
Priest Tigiling turned his head, wondering if Lee Han was joking and he didn’t understand because he didn’t have a sense of humor.
However, Lee Han’s face was very serious as he was chopping the ingredients with a knife.
“…I see… I see.”
The Tigiling priest, who wasn’t particularly interested in grades, didn’t quite understand, but decided to accept it for now.
“Oh. “I don’t think I can help you with my duties today.”
“You’re not on duty…”
Even though Lee Han’s turn ended a long time ago and it was the other priests’ turn, Lee Han was helping.
It wasn’t because the priests were more unique and prettier than the Blue Dragon Tower students (although they were), but for a more practical reason.
Because without Lee Han, the priests kept fighting.
-I didn’t know that the white flame transformation would succeed so quickly. Heh… now that I think about it, I guess I was worried for no reason. There is no way Apha would not spare a believer like Wardanaz. Even when I think about it again…
-…Priest Nigisor. Do I really need to brag in front of others right now?
Lee Han had never thought that Phoenix Tower priests could be a nuisance.
But surprisingly, it was possible.
Surprisingly, the excited priests were more picky than the Blue Dragon Tower students.
People who don’t know that when bragging about something, you have to understand the situation and location well!
Since he has never boasted before, he brags like that in front of the priests of the church who have not yet awakened to divine magic, and the priests who are not immune to such bragging get angry and suggest that they compete in a doctrine debate…
“Still, I’m glad that priests start thinking and speaking when they brag in front of others.”
Priest Tigiling was embarrassed by Lee Han’s words.
They are priests from religious denominations that represent the empire, so what kind of disgrace is this?
“But does Priest Tigiling have any plans to teach anything about the Pricinga Church? “It’s finally my turn.”
“The teachings I received were not like that… My closer thought is that if Mr. Prisinga wants to give something, he will decide the time. “Do you want to increase the curse further?”
“No, that’s not it.”
Lee Han immediately denied it.

It was okay to take more hits with magic-related curses, but other curses were quite difficult.
The Tigiling priest accepted it readily, probably because he wasn’t expecting much.
“Actually, you’re still wearing too many curses.”
‘I forgot.’
To be honest, magic-related curses were so meaningless that I almost forgot they existed.
The purpose of the priests of the Pricinga Church is to endure the curse with their own bodies and perform penance, but it is to the point where one wonders if this is okay.
“If you’re not on duty today, do you have any other commitments?”
“yes.”
The Tigiling priest gently closed his eyes and opened his mouth as if trying to guess.
“Do you receive instruction from the principal?”
“…It’s not?!”
After dinner, I had a one-on-one meeting with the principal during break time.
Lee Han was astonished.
“You don’t get taught after dinner! Even though! “It’s break time!”
“yes? Uh, I thought you liked it.”
“……”
Lee Han was doubly astonished.
“Then Professor Verdus…”
“Absolutely not, I’m going to go for a walk around school.”
“ah. Is that so.”
The Tigiling priest nodded as he moved the finished stew.
what?
“But isn’t walking after dinner allowed?”
“huh. “I’m going out secretly.”
“……”
Seeing Lee Han declaring that he was going to sneak out as naturally as breathing, the Tigiling priest hesitated over whether to say a word.
I wondered if there was any point in stopping other top students from sneaking out anyway.
“The principal has increased the search force, so the means of going out are being blocked. “You have to find it in advance.”
“All the sentences you just said don’t make sense to me, but… oh. really. “There is a good way.”
“?”
“How about going out with our tower priests?”
Priests were basically allowed to go out after dinner for prayers and rituals.
Wasn’t that why Lee Han borrowed priest’s clothes in the past?
Of course, I switched to invisibility magic because it was more convenient, but…
“If you are among the priests, there will be no suspicion.”
“But is it okay to use faith like that?”
“If you do that now…”
The Tigiling priest suddenly looked at Lee Han as if asking why he was like this. It was a little more painful because it was the gaze of the normally kind Tigiling priest.
‘I need to show myself to be more faithful in the future.’
“okay. I would be grateful if you would come with me. “Actually, it’s better to go for a walk at night with a group of people.”
“Is that so? “Why?”
“It’s easier to respond when a problem arises by setting up a front and rear guard.”
Lee Han didn’t even mention the fact that he would have to act as a scapegoat to attract someone’s attention in case of an emergency.
It was because he was afraid that the Tigiling priest would look at him with contempt.
“I think it’s better to share roles.”
“Do you divide roles through magic?”
“no. Rather, he’s an expert in keys and traps, and if anything happens, he’s someone who needs to be met with his own body…”
Lee Han, who was speaking, changed the topic because he thought the topic was a bit explicit.
“Anyway, it would be nice to have several people, so I’ll ask you a favor. for a moment. But is it okay for everyone to call priests who are not in their turn? “Do you understand this?”
“no. Since they won’t understand, I think it would be better to ask Priest Nigisor and Priest Siana.”
“Priest Tigiling, are you not angry with your friends?”
* * *
The good thing about Nigisor and Cyana priests going out together was that there were no priests in the break room who would glare at them even if they boasted to each other.
The two talked about how amazing, wonderful, and miraculous their faith was at every step.
Instead of looking at the dark hallway ahead, Lee Han looked at the Tigiling priest.
‘Did they bring those guys here for no reason?’
-You got caught, run away!!!
-You run away first!
-Big!! I’ll remember!
A faintly familiar voice was heard from afar. It seemed like other top students were also caught wandering around somewhere.
“hello.”
But the priests did not do that. As I bowed my head and said hello, the Death Knight walking down the hallway also bowed his head and passed by.
‘It really works.’
If it was just one priest, they might be a little suspicious, but when several priests walked together, they seemed to think they were just looking for a place to pray.
Lee Han thought in vain that if he disguised himself as a priest and went to the main gate, they would let him through.
‘I guess that’s impossible.’
widely-
Fortunately, I was lucky today.
There were no obstacles to the third floor of the main building, except for the rotating stairs and a trap that showed the illusion of lava the moment you stepped on it.
“Gasp… gasp.”
“Did you just see a vision? “Did you just see a vision!??!”
Priests Nigisor and Syana were drenched in sweat and looked fearful.
Either way, Lee Han said with relief.
“You are very lucky today. “There is no other trap than this!”
“……”
“……”
The two priests were looking at Lee Han as if they were looking at a crazy person, but Lee Han, who did not notice because he was concentrating on the front line, continued speaking.
“Friends who like to take a walk at night tend to like the 3rd floor of the main building the most. The second floor of the main building is a bit safer, but there are few changes, so there is less to find. In comparison, there are a lot more things on the 3rd floor of the main building. Salko said he was walking around with his friends the other day and saw a room full of canned goods in the corner of the third floor. Can you believe it? “A room full of canned goods!”
“I’ve never seen Wardanaz this excited.”
Priest Siana spoke in a slightly surprised voice.
He was such a serious person when it came to taking care of the priests…
“I’ll put the Light of Truth on everyone’s wands, so go around and tell me as soon as you find something.”
“oh. Wardanaz. I think I found something. “Isn’t this a fake wall?”
Priest Siana looked surprised and pointed to the wall.
It was a wall with an elaborate but hidden door.
“ah. That’s a fake wall right there. But if you go in there, you’ll end up in an underground alley, so be careful. “Last time, two people from the White Tiger Tower went in there and couldn’t find their way out, so they were taken to the punishment room.”
“……”
Priest Siana was scared and took a step back.
How many night walks have you gone on…!?
“And take this. This is a simple map I made. “I created it while exchanging information with other top students.”
“Thank you, thank you.”
“really. When you come to a place that isn’t on the map, you have to stop and stand still. There was someone who saw a manticore the other day, but it was a fantasy, so it’s likely that medium-sized or larger monsters are fantasy. It would be better to stand still. “If it gets to that point anyway, there’s no point in resisting.”
Slowly, even priests Nigisor and Tigiling began to be horrified.
