Episode 487
For the first time in a long time, Lee Han looked at him with a straight face.
Priest Siana seemed to have not yet realized what was strange and tilted his head, blinking the vertical pupils characteristic of snake beastmen.
“You weren’t threatening me?”
“How can I threaten the professor…”
Suddenly, Lee Han remembered what he had said earlier, ‘If the traces of Mr. Serpent reach Professor Boladi’s ears, the request and any negotiations will become muddy.’
‘That wasn’t a threat. It was more like an earnest request.’
After quickly rationalizing, Lee Han explained the situation.
“The task of persuading other guilds was completed quickly.”
“how?”
“…Because I helped?”
“……”
Priest Siana briefly said with a look in his eyes, ‘That seems even less likely than what was threatened…’
Lee Han noticed a suspicious aura in his eyes and asked back.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Maybe you’re mistaken?”
“Get ready to go out. “Everyone, let’s stop what we’re doing and go out.”
At Lee Han’s words, the princess, who was taking out a new scale from a corner, nodded with a bright face.
“uh? “Didn’t you go out?”
Ihan looked surprised and asked Yoner. Joner was rather taken aback by that reaction.
“Then I thought you left?”
“huh? huh.”
“…why?”
The princess was also one of the top honor students among the students.
There’s no way a person like that would go out on his own.
“Uh, do you want to sell a lot of snacks outside?”
“……”
Yoner was astonished.
“Lee Han, do you think of the princess in the same way as Gai Nando…”
Yoner could not finish his question.
While the questions were being asked, all the other friends had gathered.
“Then shall we leave? “Is there anyone missing?”
“for a moment. Wardanaz. “Wouldn’t it be better to check where the people who left first are and then leave?”
Asan raised his hand and asked.
Then Lee Han asked back, as if asking what he was talking about.
“We have to find those who left after playing first. “I don’t have time.”
“uh?”
As Asan was embarrassed, other students spoke up.
“You are correct.”
“i think so too.”
“me too…”
“Is that so?”
Asan felt that his common sense was slightly shaken by the firm answers of his prominent friends.

Ratford thought seriously and then opened his mouth.
“I guess I’ll have to move my wallet location at least once…”
“No no!”
“If you get caught, you’ll be in big trouble!”
The friends urgently stopped Ratford from trying to pickpocket.
Of course, silver coins were tight, but that didn’t stop him from asking his friends to steal.
“The less you write, the more you can play.”
“But what if the professor gets angry?”
“are you okay. Even if you get angry, you won’t be able to do anything.”
“But what if Wardanaz gets angry?”
“……”
“…You bastard, why do you make such ominous noises while playing?”
The students at White Tiger Tower who spoke out were all scolded by their friends.
“Then let’s all find a way to make money.”
“That’s a good idea. Wardanaaz also made money every time he went out.”
The students were agitated by Ratford’s words.
“With what? Did you threaten him with a cane?”
“I think I heard that it was a request, but…”
“Going out? “In that short period of time?”
“We can’t do that… let’s find something else.”
Black Turtle Tower, Renged came up with a realistic idea.
“If you go around the store, there will be places that need magic. Even when I was helping out at the Chef’s Guild, I often called in wizards. “If I told you I was from Einrogard, they would gladly accept it.”
Since most of those who boasted about themselves as wizards were suspicious and incompetent, there was no surer guarantee than that they were from Einrogard.
the problem is…

“So, Renjid. Are we now from Einrogard supposed to go around the shops on the street and say, ‘We’re from Einrogard, please give us some work’?”
When the students of the Blue Dragon Tower and the White Tiger Tower asked in sharp voices, Renjid was slightly shocked.
“A little, isn’t it?”
“no. “That’s a very good idea?”
“Let’s do it quickly.”
“……”
The Black Turtle Tower students were whispering as they saw the Blue Dragon Tower students and the White Tiger Tower students hurrying to run for fear of losing their good seats.
“Are those kids from noble families?”
The main road that starts from the water statue, the pride of the city of Isran, and leads to the port was so noisy that you could not even hear the voices next to you due to the shops and buildings that had been in place for a long time.
The stall connected to the front of the store was filled with seafood brought in from the port and sweets baked with Southern sugar sprinkled on top, and next to it, customers sat at tables in cafes and tea houses, basking in the sun and people-watching.
These stores were bright enough for city kids to pop in and out, but they weren’t the only ones.
The alleys connected to the tavern and inn were filled with everything from antique shops that dispose of suspicious stolen goods to shops that sell artifacts whose working or not is unknown.
The atmosphere was so gloomy that the travelers entering this alley were only a small minority among the large crowd.
“You came from Einrogard, why are you doing this? Uh… so… it’s… to improve my magic skills.”
“Yes, that’s right. “Magical skills are made up of small actions that occur in everyday life…”
In response to the store owner’s question, the students did their best to come up with an excuse.
Fortunately, the store owner was impressed by those words.
“Oh my…! Wizards are truly amazing! I can’t believe you don’t shy away from such unpleasant things. Do you really want this silver coin? “I’m sorry…”
“no. “What’s important to us is training.”
After persuading the store owner, Renzid asked Batrek.
“Hey, you have good quick wits. “How did you come up with something like that?”
“I was just following what Wardanaz said.”
“……”
In any case, the students who found seats worked hard.
Cast a fire resistance spell on the inside of the furnace, and fix any scrolls that can be repaired while scrolling…
Well done!
“thank you. “Mr. Wizard.”
The store owner bowed his head politely and held out a bag of silver coins.
The students accepted the bag with dignity, turned around, and shouted.
“It’s money!!”
“With this money, you don’t need Einro Guard! You don’t have to go back! “Let’s open a new school!”
“good idea!!”
“…???”
The students, intoxicated by the charm of the silver coin, ran out shouting crazy words.
“omg…!”
“why? what’s the matter?”
“Hey Wodanaz! Next to the redhead!”
“omg!”
The students let out a gasping sound.
Lee Han and his friends could be seen walking from afar.
‘I’m here to catch you!’
I barely earned a silver coin, but I couldn’t just end there.
The students gritted their teeth and lowered their posture.
“uh. “You must not call me Wardanaz…”
“hey! “Shut up Ratford!”
“Eup! Eupeup!”
“In the opposite direction! “In the opposite direction!”
The friends quickly ran away. Because there were so many people, it wasn’t that difficult to escape.
“I survived…!”
“We can’t get caught yet! “We need to play more!”
“okay. Although we are different at the top, we are joining forces this time.”
‘Is something this tragic going to happen?’
Ratford was puzzled as he watched his friends making decisions with solemn voices.
I usually do this when I take a test at school…
“I guess they are wizards.”
“!”
The students were surprised by the voice coming from inside the alley.
A long robe that completely covers the face. The voice coming from inside was so strange that one could not guess its race or gender.
In front of the stranger sitting on the chair was a table carved from paulownia wood, and on it were engraved strange patterns that I had never seen before.
“Don’t you want to see the future?”
“……”
“Are you a primitive wizard?”
“He must be a quack. what.”
In the frontier areas of the empire, there remained unique magics whose principles had not yet been discovered by the imperial magic system or whose existence was unknown.
Such magic was called primitive magic in the imperial magic world.
However, the person who offered to see the future in a place like this was much more likely to be a quack or a swindler than a primitive precognitive wizard.
“Hehehe… I understand that you don’t trust me. So how about this? I won’t take any money. And what if I don’t get it right? “I will give you a silver coin upside down.”
“oh…!”
If it had been Lee Han, he would have stopped him by saying, ‘God, those people who do that for free are even more suspicious,’ but the students were very thirsty for silver coins right now.
Bartrek was the first to step forward and spoke.
“Let’s give it a try. “What family do I come from?”
“There is no need to be hasty. ruler. “Put your hand over here.”
The wizard, Ianop, had his eyes shining beneath his robes.
This ordinary-looking wooden table was an extraordinary artifact with eight magics attached to it.
Of course, just because it had eight magic spells did not mean that the artifact was powerful or expensive.
Surprisingly, this artifact with eight magic effects had no effect.
I just overlapped the eight magics elaborately so that it didn’t look like no magic had been applied.
In some ways, I thought, ‘Why would someone do such a prank with such an ability?’ However, truly outstanding magicians were different.
A normal, good wizard wouldn’t notice anything if he placed his hand on the table, but…
A magician with extraordinary talent, one of the best in the empire, would be firstly surprised by the fact that there was magic on this table, and secondarily by the sophistication that left no trace of it.
It was like that.
This table was an artifact created by Antagondals.
‘I can’t believe you can hide the gem with just one simple artifact.’
Ianop was once again impressed by the Archmage’s abilities.
An extraordinary and outstanding wizard could not stop being curious the moment he realized this artifact.
Who created this artifact?
Why on earth did you think this way?
What else does the wizard who created this know?
I couldn’t resist such curiosity because it was like a curse that inevitably followed natural talent.
“I uploaded it.”
“Have you uploaded everything?”
“yes. “You uploaded it?”
Ianop had a disappointed expression on his face under his robes.
The dull dwarf in front of me seemed to have no idea what was going on.
Ianop gave it a silver coin and threw it roughly to make it go out.
“You… come from a family of knights.”
“omg! how!”
“……”
“little bit more! Guess just a little bit more! “Am I good at some kind of magic?”
“……”
Ianop wanted to quickly check on the other students, but he was really annoyed by Bartrek, who wouldn’t leave.
“I am currently learning alchemy, and I am worried because there are many students who are very good at alchemy. Besides, I’m also a knight. I wonder if alchemy is the right path for me, but my family is well-versed in alchemy, so why give it up again… Really. It is difficult.”
“…Yes… But this is the future, wizard. “It’s not like you can guess it that accurately…”
Ianop’s flattering words seemed to have given Bartrek more confidence.
Don’t they say they can guess things that con artists normally can’t?
On the other hand, Ianop…
“symptom! Just look for a sign! “What should I do?”
‘Why does this talentless bastard keep acting like this?’
Ianop held back his curse and threw it again.
“…I see dragons, nobles, and archmages. Follow these signs.”
“…omg. Isn’t it Wardanaz?”
“It looks like Wardanaz???”
The students were shocked and whispered.
When it came to nobles and great wizards, the only one that came to mind was Wardanaz.
Moreover, like a dragon, he has a lot of magical power…
“Follow Wodanaz?”
“I think it will definitely be helpful in the future…”
“But you get beaten up.”
“Were you there?”
The students screamed in new voices at the familiar voice.
Lee Han and his friends were standing outside the alley, each holding a piece of cotton candy.
“Woah, Wardanaz…! Please. Please have mercy! Please have mercy!”
‘What are these guys doing?’
Ianop was puzzled.
It looks like he’s a fellow student, but he’s shaking like an escaped convict meeting an executioner.
