Episode 462
“…Aren’t you using persuasion in a different sense?”
Ogoldos whispered.
Originally, Einrogard had many words that were used with different meanings.
For example, ‘Let’s go borrow something from our principal’s warehouse’…
“There is a possibility.”
Coholti nodded.
Ogoldos’s point was certainly sharp.
“Hey, I’m a junior. “Maybe the professor is attacked…”
puck!
Direth returned before he knew it and swung the reagent bag and hit Coholti.
Coholti screamed and fell into the pit.
“Are you saying that? Do you say that? To the junior who went around to get reagents on your behalf?”
“I… I doubt that kid too…”
“no!”
Ogoldos desperately denied it, but Direth mercilessly swung the reagent bag.
With a dull sound, Ogoldos also fell next to Coholti.
‘hmm. That’s why you were in the pit.’
Lee Han realized the truth when he saw his seniors entering the pit.
And I thought to myself.
‘I must not relax even when breathing in front of senior Direth.’
Direth looked at Lee Han with very sorry eyes, not realizing that he was being treated as the most feared senior in the black magic school.
“…I’m sorry for making you listen to nonsense. I’m serious.”
“no. “I always regard the words of my seniors as gold and silver.”
The two people inside the pit looked happy.
Maybe the same thing can be said so prettily?
“Some words are like trash, so don’t value them too much… So, you persuaded me to accept this? “Did the professor make any unreasonable demands?”
Delet was worried about Lee Han.
As you know, the professors at Einrogard were not good enough to be kind to students through persuasion without receiving anything in return.
‘Didn’t they at least draw blood?’
Considering the magical power of the junior in front of me, I wasn’t surprised that some crazy professor did something crazy.
“yes. “Well, I’m also learning under Professor Thunderstruck.”
“ah.”
Only then did Delet realize.
Talking to seniors from the dark magic school felt so natural that I had forgotten about it, but now that I think about it…
‘I was listening to several of his lectures.’
Well, for a student of this caliber, it was understandable that the professor would grant a favor.
They say professors don’t pay much attention to their students, but that also depends on the students.
How much would you be upset if you didn’t do a favor for no reason and then went to another school?
“I see…”
“And I asked for this from Professor Garcia, this from Professor Knighton, this from Professor Plüwerk, this from Professor Millais, this from Professor Ku, this from Professor Craer, this from Professor Lezy, and this from Professor Lagrinde.”
“……”
Delet covered his face with both hands.
Just when I was trying to accept reality, I felt dizzy.
“And I borrowed this from Professor Verdus.”
“?”
Coholti, who was in the pit, felt something strange.
‘Didn’t Professor Verdus say you went to the punishment room?’
“Are you okay?”
Lee Han asked in a worried voice as Direth just bowed his head in silence.
“If I make any mistake…”
“no no. What are the mistakes? Junior. You really, really did a great job, I swear on every meal and every outing for the students at the dark arts school. “I’m sorry for being so nice to you.”
Delet perked up and raised his face.
As a senior, I had already done all the rude things, but now I had to do my job as a senior.
I couldn’t make my junior worry about someone who had achieved such feats.
“Thank you very much.”
“no. “I just did what I had to do.”
“And I can’t take this…”
“no!”
“Please think again!”
As screams erupted from inside the pit, Direth poured dirt on the pit.
Without realizing it, Lee Han took a step further away from Direth. Delet didn’t notice.
“…uh. “How can we accept what you worked so hard for?”
“But senior. Since I received it like this, I can’t return it to the professor and I can’t use it myself.”
“that’s right. You even say this. Delet.”
“Please think again.”
Upon hearing the words of Coholti and Ogoldos, who had dug into the ground and crawled out to the other side, Direth sighed and kicked them both.
“…thanks. really. While I was learning black magic, there was no day I was more embarrassed than today. I’m serious.”

“no way. “It was more embarrassing that there was a zombie uproar in the capital the year before last.”
Delet re-covered the pit where the two had been thrown, summoned a summoned beast over it, completely blocked it, and then spoke to Lee Han.
“Thank you so much for joining the black magic school. and…”
Delet hesitated and spoke cautiously.
“If you don’t think it’s difficult or not, you don’t have to listen. I’m serious.”
“understand. thank you.”
“…Don’t tell the professor that I said this.”
“I don’t think the professor will lose his trust in his senior because of something like that.”
“That’s not it.”
Delet spoke very firmly.
Although Professor Mortum trusted Direth, the issue of Lee Han’s future was a serious matter that could not be forgiven, no matter how good of a disciple he was.
“Well, I see.”
Lee Han was slightly taken aback by Direth’s sharp-edged answer.
* * *
Lee Han, who returned with a basket of snacks packed by his seniors, realized that the atmosphere at the campground at the entrance to the library was chaotic.
There were no students sitting, and they were all gathered together and whispering with serious expressions on their faces.
“what? Is something happening?”
“Wardanaz!”
The students who discovered Lee Han came running with urgent faces.
“Why did you come so late! “We’re in big trouble now!”
“Dark magic… no. Okay, what happened?”
“There is clearly a monster outside the fence. “A Black Turtle Tower student has been kidnapped.”
“!”
Lee Han looked away in surprise.
The current library entrance encampment was fairly well protected with a deep moat, a wooden fence, and a temporary tower.
In addition, lights made by students, or mainly by Lee Han, were placed here and there, shining beams of light in all directions even in the darkness of the library.
It was difficult to break in and access the situation, but they broke through it and took the students.
“Is it true that you were kidnapped? “Maybe it’s somewhere else…”
“That’s not it. I was standing guard, but he disappeared. “They said no one was there when the next shift came.”
There were deep wrinkles between Salchow’s eyebrows.
I can’t believe something like this is happening even though the exam isn’t over yet.
I felt sick to my stomach thinking that the Black Turtle Tower students would be so scared that they wouldn’t be able to concentrate.
Giselle was similar.
When I saw the White Tiger Top guys, who were already having trouble concentrating, quietly closing their books, saying things like ‘Let’s send a search party’ and ‘Let’s hunt down what kind of guy they are’, I wanted to hunt my friends rather than monsters.
“We need to organize a search party and send it out. Wodanaz.”
“What kind of family’s front yard is this? “What about the search party?”
Giselle coolly cut off Salchow’s words.
Students are lucky to have forgotten it now, but the library was a labyrinth.
There is no way to know what will happen if you stop by and search this area.
“Are you blaming me just because the White Tiger Tower guys haven’t disappeared, Moradi?”
Salchow growled, but Giselle didn’t even blink. Instead, she glared coldly at him, and she retorted.
“Even if the White Tiger Tower guys had disappeared, they would have said the same thing. Of course, the White Tiger Tower guys haven’t disappeared.”
“Moradi. “I must tell you that I am suspicious of you.”
“What kind of bullshit are you talking about so confidently?”
“If you listen to it, it will be persuasive. Because you White Tiger Tower guys are so brainless. Those guys only have one thing in mind, right? “You’re holding on to other people’s ankles.”
“ah. So, this is what our TOP is doing now?”
Giselle responded as if she was not praying. Salko nodded his head.
“Who will benefit if the Black Turtle Tower students disappear?”
“If that’s the logic, then why is the Blue Dragon Tower outside of the dragon line?”
“There are two reasons. Moradi. “For one, the Blue Dragon Tower guys are sanity-minded people who can’t do anything without Wardanaz.”
“……”
Lee Han listened and looked at Salko in bewilderment.
“no…”
“What if Wardanaz took the lead?”
“Look at Wardanaz’s daily schedule.”
To a large extent, Giselle wanted to screw over Lee Han, but honestly, this was strong evidence that was difficult to refute.
“It certainly is. “What’s the next reason?”
“The Blue Dragon Tower students have better grades than the Black Turtle Tower students. “There is no such thing as a fool who keeps his subordinates in check.”
“aha. I see. why? “Why don’t you draw your weapon and attack me?”
“I still plan to do so. “If you keep interfering with the search party.”
The priests became restless and worried as the representatives of each tower glared at them while blatantly exuding their will.
“Whoa, Wodanaz. “Can’t you stop me?”
“Huh, wouldn’t it be easier to just let the winner choose?”
While Lee Han was wondering which of the two would win, he was puzzled by the priests’ words.
Honestly, aren’t you curious?
However, the priests seemed to have no interest in such a duel trial.
“please!”
“They aren’t the ones listening to me…”
Lee Han muttered that, but surprisingly, the two called Lee Han.
“Wardanaz. “You judge.”
“Wardanaz. “What do you think?”
“…Since when did you two start calling me so out of respect for my opinion?”
Lee Han looked at the two with annoyed eyes.
Why do these guys, who are normally always ticking, ask Lee Han to be the judge at times like this?
It’s just that the two of them fight on their own and hate each other…
“If we don’t send a search party now, the remaining students will become more anxious. The next student to disappear could be the Blue Dragon Tower.”
“It would be better to raise our guard. Let’s push more people into places where we don’t even know where they are? Do you know what they call it in the North?”
“You call it a brave and noble act?”
“They say it’s something only an asshole and a moron would do, but if you want to call it that, you can call it that. Shall we call it the nobility of the brave family from now on?”
‘If I leave it like this, will the two of you fight and make a decision?’
“Wardanaz. “Please answer quickly.”
“What are you doing? “Answer me.”
Lee Han originally didn’t want to get involved in the fight between the two.
It was easier to let the two fight and then deal with it afterwards.
Lee Han was able to become a good person because the winning side would be satisfied, and the losing side, if appeased separately, would hold their grudge against the winning side.
But now, when Lee Han makes a decision, both responsibility and resentment come back to him.
I didn’t want to go through that kind of trouble with other top guys who didn’t listen and complained already.
‘It takes time. ‘We need to let those two make their own decisions.’
“I think both are wrong.”
“?”
“??”
The two looked at Lee Han with surprised eyes.
A completely unexpected answer came out.
“Why, Wardanaz?”
“Is there any other good way?”
“Think about it carefully. This is a monster that broke through our thorough defense and kidnapped our friend. “What does that mean?”
Of course, Lee Han didn’t really know what it meant.
How can we know what kind of monster it is just based on clues?
It wasn’t even clear if it was a real monster.
However, Salco and Giselle stopped what they were doing and became lost in thought when Lee Han spoke with such weight.
Because Lee Han was not the type of person to lie in this regard.
“Uhm. It’s difficult. Wardanaaz.”
“Why don’t you just say it directly.”
“no. “You both need to think more.”
bang!!!!!
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard the sound of the main gate outside the fortress being smashed.
And the student standing guard above him screamed.
“It’s an attack!! “It’s a monster attack!!”
“…!?”
“Well, that’s right! Monsters are usually arrogant. Since they succeeded in doing something like that so easily, they’re going to underestimate us and attack us again!”
“…That’s it. “That’s what I was saying.”
“?”
Giselle sensed something strange and asked.
“But why didn’t you tell me that and ask me to think about it…”
“Everyone gather towards the front gate!! “It’s a monster attack!!”
Instead of answering, Lee Han rushed to the front door and gathered the students.
