Episode 551
After a while.
The thunderous professor complained and walked out of the hut.
“Wardanaz, I don’t know about you, but Einrogard’s professors and students don’t invade each other’s territory. Just as well water does not invade river water…”
“sorry. professor.”
“Hmm. “Don’t forget to organize your warehouse.”
In the end, the thunderous professor, unable to overcome his persistent student, had no choice but to surrender.
Even if it were another student, a student like Lee Han could not easily be ignored by a professor with thunderous steps.
Since he is a valuable student who does a lot of work on a daily basis…
“ruler. “Then let’s go find the spirit.”
“Why on earth are you so obsessed with spirits? huh?”
The thunderous professor did not understand.
Of course, if one could receive help from spirits, the wizard’s domain would become much wider.
However, no matter how you look at it, Lee Han was a student who could live well even without the spirit, like the skeleton principal.
“Professor, how many spirits did you contract with?”
“…I don’t think that has anything to do with the current topic…”
“Let’s go quickly.”
Lee Han didn’t seem to listen at all to the words of people who were even slightly closer to the spirit than he was.
The thunderous professor had no choice but to shake his head and move on.
* * *
“Everyone get out of the way.”
The dwarf professor took out a crossbow and pulled the trigger. With a thud, the bolt tore the space around it.
Kwasik!
The polluted being, which looked like a tree monster and used a huge oak tree as its core, fell with one blow.
Lee Han could not help but be impressed.
Even though I couldn’t understand all the magic on that crossbow, I felt how great it was.
Moreover, the bolt was no ordinary bolt. The wick of the bolt, which looked like a short arrow, contained an elongated flask, and the alchemy solution flowed.
‘Can’t we just get one?’
“That’s strange.”
“yes?”
Lee Han flinched, wondering if his true feelings were revealed.
“Even if there are a lot of numbers, there are still too many. “If it were a natural occurrence, it wouldn’t increase so rapidly.”
Professor Thunderstruck was an outstanding alchemist, but he was also an outstanding ranger.
And there were few people who were as sensitive to changes in the area they were responsible as a ranger.
We hadn’t even gone far into the forest, but it was as dark as midnight. It was evidence that the power of the dark element was becoming stronger.
Normally, pollutants do not increase this quickly…
“Then, perhaps the principal…”
“It must have been your seniors’ mistake.”
“aha. “It must be a mistake made by our seniors.”
“Didn’t you just talk about the principal?”
“well?”
Priest Yoner and Syana, who were next to Ihan, quietly looked away.
The thunderous professor shook his head and said.
“The principal deserves this, but he wouldn’t have done something like this. “It’s too much of a hassle to clean up things like contaminants.”
“Did you just say you were worthy of this?”
Priest Syanna couldn’t believe his ears and asked Ihan and Yoner, but the two nodded expressionlessly.
“You heard correctly.”
“You are someone worthy of that.”
“!?”
While Priest Siana was shocked, Lee Han asked something curious.
“When you say cleaning up after things is a hassle, do you mean the surrounding pollution?”
“okay.”
The thunderous professor looked at his student as if he were amazed.
Even though I felt bad for involving students in their work, when I saw that they knew ten things without even teaching them one thing, that feeling of shame would disappear.
“The method of the principal’s attack changes every year, but it is usually cleaned up afterward. Otherwise, you’ll have to deal with it yourself. “This is most likely the students’ mistake.”
“okay.”
“Probably black magic students.”
“yes?”
Lee Han was slightly upset.
Unlike the seniors of other schools, I was reminded of the seniors of the dark magic school whose shoulders were always slumped.
“No, if a problem like this arises, are we all from the black magic school? “Isn’t that too much?”
“Oh, no…”
Only then did the thunderous professor remember that Lee Han was also listening to black magic and said with a little regret.
“I don’t necessarily suspect that they are students of the black magic school. ruler. Look. “They are dark spirit pollutants.”
“……”
It was only then that Lee Han realized what he meant.
I immediately lowered my voice and whispered to the thunderous professor.
“Still, we’re all students at Einrogard who have studied under the professor, so there’s no need to punish them too harshly, right? “If you show generosity once, your seniors will not forget.”

“……”
‘Actually, we’re not that close, are we?’
Seeing Lee Han immediately confirming that the seniors of the Black Magic School were the culprits, Professor Thunderstruck began to suspect that Lee Han was actually not that close to the seniors of the Black Magic School.
* * *
“Hey, Senior Illendil. “Isn’t this dangerous now?”
The second-year students looked at their dryad mixed-race senior and spoke with tired faces.
This student, who had dryad blood mixed into his soul, was in the highest grade among them, but his attire was the most shabby.
He was wearing a coat that looked like it had been woven from fallen leaves, and mud was dripping all over his body, so it was hard to tell whether he was a beggar or a wizard.
“Hmm. I’m sorry. everyone.”
“……”
“……”
At Illendil’s calm words, the juniors’ expressions turned tearful.
What the senior was doing in the forest now was a kind of experiment.
By injecting dark elements into primordial homunculi, I will create a being close to an artificial dark spirit!
Of course, if it had gone well, I wouldn’t be here like this.
The homunculus grew beyond expectations and escaped, unleashing dark elements throughout the forest.
Already seeing the pollutants coming out of the forest made me shudder at the prospect of how terrible the winter in Einrogard would be this year.
“I thought I would get help from the black magic school.”
“No, the black magic school wouldn’t have helped. “The people there are weird and scary.”
“Now is not the time. “Senior Illendil.”
One of the second years spoke firmly.
“Quickly erase traces and run away.”
“…you…”
The students looked at the friend who spoke.
Then he patted his back and shouted as if he had said something well.
“Well said! okay. “Let’s quickly erase our traces and run away!”
I was so confused that I had forgotten the basic rules of Einroguard.
If a problem arises, erase your traces and get out!
“Hmm. But… if we leave it like this, the forest will become so dirty that we have to stop it.”
“No, senior. If you get caught, you will be punished until the end of the semester! You have to take the final exam in the punishment room! “The forest is important, you are important!”
“If we have to be honest, the forest is more important, right?”
“……”
“……”
The juniors lamented when they belatedly remembered that this outstanding alchemist had an unusual way of thinking.
“Seniors! “You have to go together!”
“Can not help it. Catch your senior! “We have to take him with us!”
bang!
“?”
“…?!”
The students were frightened when they saw the familiar sound of a bolt and the effect of tearing space in the distance.
All students at Einrogard were afraid of their professors, but among them, they were most afraid of their professors.
“You’re the thunder-walking professor!?”
“Oh, no, why did you come all the way here?? “There’s no cabin here???”
“Did you get caught!? Didn’t someone snitch on it!?”
“Spread out! Scatter up and run away! Seniors. “You have to run!”
“huh. okay. Everyone run away.”
Einrogard’s rule, ‘If trouble happens, erase your traces and run away’, the next rule was ‘If you get caught, disperse and run away.’
The students quickly dispersed according to the rule and began to run away.
* * *
“No, those ungrateful bastards!”
The thunderous professor was furious, clenching his beard.
Lee Han was puzzled. The thunderous professor was getting angry as he looked at the empty space in the distance.
“ah. “Do you have any seniors?”
“okay!”
“Are you seniors majoring in alchemy?”
“…okay!”
“professor! “Didn’t I tell you that my dark magic masters were innocent!”
Professor Thunderstruck didn’t have the presence of mind to point out Lee Han’s change of words.
He gritted his teeth and prepared to catch the ungrateful disciples.
“I told you not to experiment recklessly in the forest… but chase them!”
“for a moment. professor…!”
Lee Han was taken aback when Professor Thunderstruck rode a spirit deer to track down his seniors.
We’ve almost made it to where the spirits are!
“Why don’t we go by ourselves? “We’re almost there anyway.”
“I guess so.”
Lee Han nodded at Priest Siana’s words.
I was quite nervous as I didn’t know when the spirits would return.
“Darkness, gather here.”
Lee Han chanted a spell to clear the dark fog that spread around him.
Proving that it is one of the most heterogeneous elemental properties, the dark element itself presents a hostile obstacle to life.
Even ordinary fog in the forest becomes a fatal trap that steals vitality when combined with the dark element.
The good news is that Lee Han is a rare dark element user even in the black magic school.
Lee Han waved his staff and drew in the fog.
Dark elements that were so difficult to collect outside were easily collected in this forest.
‘I need to clean it up.’
Although it was such a rare element, paradoxically, it became less useful in the forest.
Since they were pollutants combined with the dark element, the dark element itself did not cause much damage.
“Wait, wait, wait!”
“????”
Priest Siana screamed ‘Heek’ and hid behind Lee Han.
A person suddenly appeared out of thin air.
“Please don’t throw away that dark element! “Can you put it in a bottle here?”
The other person had an appearance reminiscent of Professor Puyona Willow, a half-breed banyan tree spirit. It was clear that it was a mixture of plant species.
“who are you?”
“Contain the dark element first. “It will disappear soon!”
“It won’t go away.”
Lee Han skillfully controlled the dark element and aimed it at his opponent. It was a clear act of caution.
The dark element is more difficult to control due to its heterogeneity, but some natural wizards are an exception.
Lee Han, who held the dark element at the tip of his staff like a spear, prepared to respond immediately.
“Whoa, Wodanaz. “Aren’t you a senior?”
“Priest Sianna. Actually, seniors are more dangerous. “It’s dangerous in that order: principal, professor, and senior.”
“Yeah, but…”
Priest Siana, who was still bound by common sense, hesitated, perhaps because she was afraid of taking aim at her senior.
Yoner also looked worried.
“for a moment. I apologize. But I really didn’t mean to.”
“What are you apologizing for?”
“What about this whole situation…?”
Illendil tilted his head and said.
The three first-year students realized everything after hearing those words.
There was a criminal in front of me!
“Attack! Attack!”
“Lee Han, give me a signal!”
Illendil was embarrassed by his juniors’ violent reaction and threw up his hands.
“I didn’t mean to…?!”
“Isn’t that what you meant by summoning all of this?”
The dryad half-blood senior thought for a moment about how to persuade him, then made a decision.
I gave up.
“Hey… I can attack, but can’t I just put the dark element in it?”
“……”
“I think I’m crazy.”
Priest Siana muttered behind him.
* * *
Lee Han lowered his cane.
Although the other person seemed like a crazy person, he still didn’t seem like someone who would attack me by surprise.
After explaining in a slow tone what had happened, Illendil looked at the three and asked.
“So what brings you all here?”
“uh…”
“that is…”
Yoner and Priest Siana looked at Ihan indifferently. Lee Han answered firmly.
“I came here because I couldn’t stand and watch the spirits being chased by the pollutants.”
“you…”
For the first time today, Illendil opened his eyes wide and reacted violently.
Among Einrogard students, it was rare to find anyone who showed such interest in the forest or spirits.
“What a good person you are!”
“no. “As a wizard, it’s only natural.”
