Episode 550
“Gyo, professor.”
Lee Han, who heard the thunderous voice of the professor, gestured.
The professor turned his head and looked at his student.
And I was even more surprised.
“Is there really a war?!”
The disciple’s appearance was a mess, as if he had been on the battlefield for three days.
His cloak is half torn, his hair is matted, his face is covered in mud and dust, and even dried blood…
I didn’t understand how they fought so fiercely in such a short period of time.
Lee Han coughed and said.
“I had no choice.”
“What do you mean you couldn’t help it?”
“The pollutants tried to attack the spirits.”
“Wait… wait, wait.”
The thunderous professor, who was trying to be slightly moved by the warm heart of his student who thought about the spirits, held back his composure.
There was something strange.
“I guess you guys were inside the cabin? “The magic circles must have been protecting you?”
“It was like that.”
Priests Yoner and Syanna answered in weary voices.
Although it wasn’t as messy as Lee Han’s, both of them were covered in dust as if it had been a tough fight.
“But we went outside and fought.”
“…why?”
“To protect the spirits.”
“I see. …why???!”
Professor Thunderstruck was confused because no matter how much he heard, he couldn’t understand it.
Why would you rush out like this to save the spirits when you could have stayed safely inside the magic circle?
Do I owe the spirits something?
* * *
‘I still have a long way to go.’
When the squirrel spirit showed affection, Lee Han gained a deep understanding.
The reason the spirits hated Lee Han until now was because of his lack of effort.
As long as there was effort, the spirits had no reason to avoid Lee Han.
‘The spirits had to be put in danger.’
When I thought about it, the existing spirits had no reason to be attracted to Lee Han.
But what if you are in danger?
What if Lee Han saves you in that situation?
“You might like me.”
“Lee Han… I would like to help you with what you are trying to do, but I am worried that you are having strange thoughts right now…”
Yoner looked at his friend with sincere eyes.
Now, listening to Lee Han’s new spirit contract theory, I became very worried.
Of course, spirits were sensitive to grace, and it was true that if you saved them, you could win their favor.
But right now, the friend in front of me seemed to be declaring that he would force the spirit to be in danger by forcing it to do favors.
‘I guess it’s my mood, right?’
“no way. It’ll be okay. It’s a good thing to do now. “It’s about helping spirits in crisis, right?”
Priest Siana spoke as if he was not worried.
“Yes, but…”
“And there is no way Wardanaz would force the spirit into danger.”
Lee Han, who was walking in front, stopped at those words.
When Joner saw that, he became even more worried.
“It is a contaminant. “Everyone be careful!”
Lee Han moved thoroughly as if to prove that he was being rigorously trained as a battle mage.
After placing his friends in the area of invisible magic, he casted <Ogonin’s Dark Dance> and <Fengerin’s Cold Elemental Clone> as if that was not enough.
As the illusionary fog spread over a wide area and even the clones moved within it, it became even more difficult to focus outside.
The strengthening magic that follows.
“Wardanaz. What about the agile step order?”
“You can’t do that because the side effects are severe.”
“?”
Priest Syana tried to ask, ‘Then what about the White Tiger Tower students?’, but Lee Han immediately waved his staff without stopping.
“Rise, warriors made of bone!”
When he took out a piece of black bone from his pocket, threw it away, and swung his staff, skeleton warriors appeared on the other side of the students.
They were not ordinary skeleton warriors, but skeleton warriors influenced by bone fragments containing compressed dark elements.
The pollutants reacted sensitively as if they sensed the energy of elements similar to themselves.
“I’m ready. Attack!”
Our allies had been protected with various magic, and since we had mobilized summons from behind the enemy to block their view, it was time to begin the attack in earnest.
Lee Han and his friends attacked the pollutants with sharp magic.
“Dash down, Perkuntra’s thunderbolt!”
A flash of lightning struck the pollutants.
Originally, they were low-level undead who would have been burned in one blow, but thanks to their combination with the dark spirit, some were able to survive somehow.

Those who stick together to grow bigger and have thicker armor, those who burrow into the ground to avoid attacks, those who emit dark elements like fog to reduce their power…
Yoner narrowed his eyes as he watched his friend’s magic bombardment, but as soon as he got the chance, he swung his wand.
“Break it, amplify it!”
If alchemists like Yoner prepared well in advance, their spells consumed much less magic power.
The bottle containing the potion flew around and broke in the air, exploding its power.
Grumble!
“The power of fire has weakened!”
“I can’t help it!”
Priests Yoner and Cyanna were saddened to see that the power of the fire potion had weakened, but there was nothing they could do.
The power of the season was suppressing the flames.
“The power of fire has weakened?”
“huh?”
“Burn up!”
Lee Han immediately burned down the nearby pollutant.
The polluted body that was hit directly by the suddenly blazing flames fell down without being able to resist.
Yoner looked shocked as he saw his friend maintaining his firepower even during this season.
What the…?!
“Everyone, just hang in there! “The spirits are escaping!”
Priest Siana shouted with joy.
While the pollutants were surrounded and beaten on both sides, the spirits that were being chased found a way to escape into the forest.
When they were beaten one-sidedly, the angry pollutants joined together, inflated their bodies, and swung their claws, but the initial surprise attack was fatal.
The wizards at the back were unable to properly position themselves due to the fog, and the dark skeleton warriors at the front were tenaciously holding on thanks to being strengthened with elements.
“for a moment. “You’re getting out?”
“yes? yes.”
“……”
Lee Han thought for a moment.
Joner saw this and called his friend.
“Lee Han? Lee Han… Surely not?”
“I guess I have to help the spirits!”
Lee Han released the invisibility spell and jumped out of the fog.
And then I ran to the place where the spirits were escaping.
■… ■■???
The pollutants naturally reacted when a wizard suddenly emerged from the fog.
Whoosh!
Like a whip, long thorns shot out from the polluted body’s forehead and aimed at Lee Han.
This anomalous attack of a pollutant without a fixed body was a strength that was difficult to counter in close combat.
But unfortunately for the polluted body, Lee Han was the top student of the Black Magic School.
“Darkness, gather here!”
Lee Han immediately chanted the dark element absorption spell and swung his staff.
Originally, it was a spell that concentrated the dark elements in the air at the tip of the staff, but in the current situation, it was more like a fight for control over the dark elements.
It was truly terrifying strength.
The polluted being, whose body was mostly made of dark elements, suddenly felt like his body was being torn apart. It was a strange sensation that I rarely felt. Without waiting, Lee Han pulled out the morning star with his other hand and swung it.
There were few weapons that were as effective as an artifact like the Morning Star against this magical composition.
Sigh!
The polluted body that had been staggering after absorbing the dark element fell down.
Lee Han shouted loudly to the spirits.
“Everyone run away! “I will stop it!”
■!
■■■! ■■!
The spirits with various shapes turned their heads at Lee Han’s shout, spotted the wizard, and made noises.
‘It worked!’
Lee Han felt a deep emotion in his heart as the spirits gave him friendly looks.
It was worth it to break the invisibility spell and run!
Quad deud deud deuk!
At that moment, the dark skeleton warriors flew to the side and were reverse-summoned.
■■■■■…
“……”
A huge pollutant with a size that was different from other pollutants appeared in front.
Lee Han looked at the pollutants and then back at the spirits.
“…Run away! “I will stop it!”
“Lee Han! “Please stop and come back!”
* * *
“so?”
Professor Thunder Walk threw some ointment to Lee Han and asked.
“How did you avoid it?”
“You caught it?”
“…really?”
“yes.”
“how??”
“I just kept dodging, rolling, and throwing magic until I fell…”
“……”
The thunderous professor was astonished by the incredibly ignorant methods of a wizard.
A wizard is waging a war of attrition against monsters.
Basically, in a fight between the wizard’s magic power and the monster’s vitality, the latter had the unconditional advantage.
But they ignored that and just went for a war of attrition and caught him.
For some reason, the area around here was a mess, as if there was a war…
“I swear on my beard, what kind of guy would do something like this just to look good to the spirits!?”
“I wasn’t trying to impress the spirit. professor. “I just want to help the spirit…”
“That’s so true!”
The thunder-walking professor clicked his tongue as he watched his student proudly spouting unconvincing lies.
Of course, there were wizards who put in a lot of effort to make contracts with spirits.
However, none of them wooed me as radically and passionately as the boy in front of me.
To show a fight like that, risking your life to win the favor of the spirits.
“Ugh. thank you.”
After roughly wiping away the blood and applying ointment to the wound, Lee Han stood up.
“Where are you going?”
“I heard the spirits were running away inside the forest earlier. Won’t they come out if I call them?”
“…for a moment. wait.”
The thunderous professor caught his student.
“Looking at the pollutants coming out now, it’s clear that there’s an uproar somewhere on the Einrogard site. “It would be best to stay away from the forest for a while.”
“All right. “I’ll just meet the spirits and come back.”
The basilisk and squirrel spirits clung to both of Lee Han’s wrists as if telling him not to go.
Priests Yoner and Syanna also grabbed both shoulders.
“Lee Han. Your condition is dangerous now. “When I saw the fight earlier, my stamina and magic power must have been used up.”
“The magic power is not consumed…”
“Quiet. “Anyway, your stamina will have been used up.”
Yoner’s voice was a little colder than usual.
Priest Siana was also serious.
“Honestly, the spirits aren’t that important, so is there any reason to risk your life now?”
“I see… Wait a minute. “How many spirits has Priest Syanna signed with now?”
“Three people?”
Lee Han looked at him with a straight face and pushed away Priest Siana’s hand.
Based on your usual attitude, I thought you weren’t that interested in spirits!
“Oh, no. Numbers aren’t important, it’s love that matters. Wardanaz. Look at the spirits here.”
“……”
When Ihan calmed down a bit, Yoner quickly responded.
“Lee Han. Think about it carefully. The spirits won’t forget the favor anyway. “Professor, you can go after hunting down all the contaminants.”
“uh?”
The thunderous professor stood still and was taken aback when an arrow flew by.
Why does this unfortunate guy have to hunt down pollutants?
“…Maybe so.”
When everyone except him stopped him, Lee Han also changed his mind.
“Once all the contaminants are gone, you can go in. “The spirits will not forget the favor.”
“uh. But will the spirits also return to their own dimension? “You weren’t officially summoned in the first place, so you don’t know how long it will last.”
The thunderous professor pointed this out without much thought, but when Yoner and Priest Syana looked at each other hastily, he thought it was a mistake.
“professor.”
“Oh, no. “It could be a long time…”
“Let’s go together.”
Lee Han spoke with his eyes burning, ready to bite until he listened.
“no…! Why did I do that…!”
“Let’s go together.”
The thunderous professor was completely overwhelmed by the brightly burning eyes of his student.
