Episode 486
“Yeah, yeah. i get it.”
The earnest sincerity could be felt in Lee Han’s voice, and the Thunderwalking Professor was overwhelmed without realizing it.
“What were you doing, Professor? “I’m sure you’re taking a break…”
The disciple looked at his teacher with suspicious eyes.
If I had finished work first and came back, I should have done something else, so I doubted whether I was actually resting.
Seeing those eyes made Professor Thunderwalk reflect on whether he had been too harsh on his students.
“…no. I was also doing my job. “Look.”
The thunderous professor gestured and pointed out the window of the mansion.
In a garden neatly arranged in a typical Southern style, several fruit trees were producing fruit in abundance, and two servants were clearing the leaves and cutting the grass.
Lee Han, who saw this, looked puzzled and asked.
“Have you secured any fruit?”
“……”
It was an idea so typical of an Einrogard student that the thunderous professor was speechless.
“Next to the tree! Opposite window!”
“aha. “I see you were talking about that way.”
It was only then that Lee Han was able to witness the window that Professor Thunder Gait pointed to.
In the large room of the mansion located on the other side, members of the Makin family and city alchemists were shaking hands.
Looking at their expressions, it was clear that the negotiation had ended to both parties’ satisfaction.
“I was persuading people from the Alchemist Guild. “Because they are the ones I can communicate with the most.”
“Are the people in the alchemist guild here good-natured?”
In response to Lee Han’s question, the thunderous professor responded immediately as if asking what he was talking about.
“no. The guys in the guild all have bad personalities. Where are the good-natured guild guys? People with good personalities don’t join the guild.”
“……”
Since a guild is a group of people with the same purpose and direction, they do not easily compromise or make concessions.
The same was true for the Alchemist Guild.
“Then why can’t you talk to me?”
“It’s because of the situation. First of all, this request was entrusted to me by the Makin family, and I am also an alchemist from Einroguard.”
The thunderous professor said as he lit his pipe.
The Makin family was a great noble family that accounted for a large portion of the empire’s alchemy world, and Professor Thunderwalk was also a famous alchemist in the empire.
If you reach out to these people’s suggestions or threaten them, you could face severe retaliation.
“Of course, since there are people in the city, the Makin family will not retaliate by cutting off the distribution of materials or reagents, but they will probably notice it.”
“okay. Professor, can you retaliate too?”
“me? “I can too.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised.
If we had to ask, isn’t Professor Thunderstruck a renowned scholar?
As he was far from power or wealth, he seemed powerless to retaliate in this situation.
“Could you please ask the principal or Professor Bagrek to attack me?”
“…What crazy things are you talking about!? “It’s like blocking invitations to the Imperial Alchemy Society!”
“no way…”
Lee Han was disappointed.
It was a bit minor for revenge.
Of course, from the perspective of Professor Thunderstruck, Lee Han seemed like a crazy person.
‘Shouldn’t I spend less time hanging out with the principal?’
I’m still in my first year, so what am I going to do later…
“But it wasn’t an unreasonable offer. The Makin family decided to supply some rare reagents, and I also agreed to improve the crafting methods for three types of potions. In any case, the Alchemist Guild said it would cooperate with our mediation plan.”
“okay. Fortunately, the.”
“Now it’s the other guild that’s the problem.”
The thunderous professor exhaled a puff of smoke and said.
“The Fishermen’s Guild… everywhere, but they understand the stubbornness of sailors. Because the emotional rift is so deep, it may not be possible to persuade them with benefits. “It’s a matter of pride…”
“That’s it.”
“And I don’t know what the adventurer guild guys here are thinking. Normally, the adventurer guild guys are crazy people who go back and forth from one thing to another, but this one in particular… No matter how small the scale is, isn’t it necessary to express a clear opinion? “You have to tell me what you’re thinking…”
“So that’s…”
The thunderous professor, who had been talking excitedly for a while, finally noticed Lee Han and asked.
“why? “Do you have anything to say?”
“They say the Fishermen’s Guild is cooperating.”
“…what? why??”
If it had been another student, the reaction would have been, ‘Did you take alcohol out of the storage room and drink it while I wasn’t looking?’, but because it was Lee Han, the reaction was different.
The thunderous professor believed it and then asked.
What happened?
“Uh… So it’s not clear yet, but the Fishermen’s Guild said they were impressed when they saw us working hard.”
“…Did a Shadow Patrol hunter risk his life to save a drowning fisherman?”
Professor Thunderstruck was very embarrassed.
If it wasn’t to that extent, I don’t think the stubborn fishermen would be impressed.
“That’s not true, they said they were moved by me risking my life to catch a monster. “It was touching to see the Einro Guard student kill the monster without sparing her body…”
“……”
The thunderous professor was at a loss for words.

After hearing it, it seemed plausible.
‘Well, since it’s an Einro Guard, it looks ordinary, but it might look different from the outside!’
“Yeah, yeah. Let me check. Anyway, thank you.”
“And the Adventurer’s Guild…”
“Did you also mention the Adventurer’s Guild!?”
The thunderous professor almost dropped his pipe.
After hunting and subjugating all morning today, I just returned to the mansion for lunch. When did you convince me to do that?
“yes. The Adventurer’s Guild seemed to have had some misunderstandings. This side does not want a confrontation, and either side is said to be satisfied as long as they receive appropriate compensation and can participate in the collection request. “I didn’t have any particular desires.”
“okay? That’s amazing. “Why didn’t you say anything?”
“I think I was a little intimidated by the reputation of the Einrogard and Makin families.”
“Ah… that could be true. Shit. “I made a mistake.”
The thunderous professor clicked his tongue.
When I thought about it, this was my own mistake.
I should have judged more calmly how the people I came with would look.
“You scared me unnecessarily. Still, it looks like you resolved the misunderstanding well?”
The thunderous professor looked at Lee Han with pride.
It was truly rare to find a student at Einrogard who showed that level of sociability.
In particular, even though he is from the Wardanaz family, he is able to resolve misunderstandings and gain friendliness from scared people.
“yes.”
“Of course, if you talk directly with a young student, misunderstandings will inevitably be resolved. “Einroguard wizards are also people.”
“……”
Lee Han didn’t even mention that the people in the adventurer’s guild greeted him with trembling because of the Wardanaz family and Professor Boladi.
Anyway, communication with each other was completed successfully.
“Then we need to talk to both of you right now. Thank you very much. Wodanaz! “You are the only one!”
“yes. professor. and…”
“?”
When it seemed like the student still had something to say, the thunderous professor looked away.
“If Professor Boladi hears about the traces of Mr. Serpent, the negotiations and the request will become muddy.”
“…Okay, I understand. “Calm down.”
* * *
After finishing the negotiations with the two guilds that came late, the thunder-walking professor was so happy that his mouth watered.
“Good job! Wodanaz! Good job!”
“I was just lucky.”
“You can rest! Take a good rest until you return. “Is there anything else you want?”
“Uh… can’t you give your friends some time to rest?”
The thunderous professor paused.
“The work is not finished yet.”
“If you calculate the schedule, there is plenty of room, right?”
“That’s right. But you know it too. “If something happens, that time is…”
The thunderous professor who was about to speak licked his lips and nodded.
“done. “I need to grant you this much favor.”
“Are you sure?”
Lee Han was slightly surprised.
I didn’t expect much.
“okay. To be honest, I was thinking that I might not be able to persuade him until tomorrow… I solved it like this, but I wonder if I can’t grant you a favor like that. Even if the schedule is messed up, it will be more than enough if other professors sit together.”
Since there was no need to go around trying to persuade, Professor Thunderwalked had more than enough time to sit down and work together.
Moreover, the thunderous professor was not a cold-hearted person who would not listen to a request from a student who had accomplished this much.
And if I held a grudge against Lee Han, I was seriously worried about what would happen after graduation.
A person like Professor Verdus may have no idea that he will be stabbed, but he is not a thunder-walking professor.
“Let’s go together to tell you the news.”
“yes.”
The thunderous professor and Lee Han walked down the hallway and headed to the workshop.
The professor burst open the door and shouted.
“Hey guys. “I have good news…!”
“…?”
Professor Lee Han-gwa was slightly embarrassed.
The workshop was almost empty.
Only a few students were sitting in their seats and no others were visible.
“Where has everyone gone? Makin?”
The thunderous professor looked at Yoner and asked.
Yoner answered, slightly averting his gaze.
“I do not know. professor.”
“……”
“……”
Professor Lee Han-do and Thunder Gait were also able to grasp the situation immediately.
The students went out to play!
Joner and some other honor students stayed because they thought, ‘But I have to finish what I have to do.’
“Have you seen the people going to this punishment room?”
The thunderous professor jumped up and down.
The work isn’t finished, but you’re running away secretly!
Meanwhile, Ihan secretly asked Yoner.
“Yoner. What were you all thinking? “The work is not finished…”
“Well… you said you had some spare time.”
“ah.”
Only then did Lee Han remember that he had relayed the schedule to his friends.
The students who found out about it said, ‘Huh? Then, I thought, ‘I can go out, right?’ and tried to go out.
‘I guess I’ll have to keep this a secret from the professor.’
“for a moment. Yoner. I have one more question. Where did everyone get the money? “I wouldn’t have any money.”
This was also the reason why the thunderous professor let down his guard.
Since the students don’t have any silver coins, there isn’t much to enjoy when they go out.
“A few people borrowed it. “I asked people from the Makin family.”
“ah. Did the Black Turtle Tower students borrow it?”
Lee Han thought it was plausible.
Since you’re practical and don’t care about reputation, you can borrow it saying, ‘I’ll pay you back later as a commission reward’…
“no. “Blue Dragon Tower students.”
Joner blushed slightly as he answered, probably because he was a little embarrassed.
“…uh? really?”
“huh. “It’s not easy to ask for a loan if you’re not a close family member in the first place…”
How could it be easy to ask for such a request just because the Black Turtle Tower students are somehow related to the Makin family?
This was something only Blue Dragon Tower students could do.
but…
“But the other kids can’t ask for it because of respect?”
“huh. “A little surprising, isn’t it?”
Yoner swallowed back his words, ‘I think there are a few kids who got courage after seeing what you did.’
It was out of respect for my friend’s honor.
“And what about the rest?”
“The rest said it was okay to just go outside.”
“……”
Lee Han suddenly remembered his seniors in healing magic and became sad.
The thunderous professor finished running around, sighed, and said.
“Wardanaz. Tell them to go out, have some fun, and come back. “Just come in before tonight.”
“thank you.”
“!?”
The remaining students were surprised when Thunder Gait suddenly gave permission.
It didn’t even end there.
The thunderous professor took out his wallet and threw it at Lee Han.
“Buy something delicious and eat it. “Don’t buy strange artifacts or potions.”
“thank you.”
“…!!”
Shock.
Murmur.
While the students stood up in confusion, Priest Sianna approached Lee Han and whispered in his ear in a low voice.
“Maybe…”
“okay. Negotiations were successful…”
“Did you threaten the professor?!”
“…no.”
