Episode 580
“Your words are too harsh…”
The apprentice knight looked at Giselle with a hurt expression.
Of course, it was rare to recommend a member of a wizarding family representing the empire to the knights, such as the Wardanaz family.
It was difficult to predict people’s reactions.
However, a boy from the Wardanaz family was fully qualified to be recommended to the Knights.
Isn’t that true just by looking at the last time we subdued anti-magicists with the knights of the Beech Knights?
Wardanaz would raise the reputation of the person he recommended, but would not tarnish it.
Wardanaz is good because you can join an outstanding knight order, and Moradi is good because you can get the honor of recommending outstanding talent…
“It’s because Moradi doesn’t want to be misunderstood that his family is close to the Wardanaz family.”
Lee Han stepped up for Moradi.
Recommending one’s family name to a knighthood would be a difficult act to do unless one was very close, as if the other person made a mistake, one’s reputation would be tarnished.
The moment you recommend it, people around you can’t help but think, ‘Oh, they must be quite friendly.’
Of course, Lee Han’s actions didn’t help much. Giselle immediately denied it.
“It’s not? Why would I refuse friendship with the Wardanaz family? “What are you talking about, Wardanaaz?”
This was something that Giselle, who had excellent political sense, could never admit.
Even though they are not a knightly family, there is a rumor that they have refused to become friends with great noble families such as the Wardanaz family, so they have nothing to gain.
“no…”
Lee Han tried to end the story on a good note, but was dumbfounded to see Giselle turning the story back to the beginning.
Of course, Giselle also glared at Lee Han with a look of complete absurdity.
‘Why do you say that you don’t want to create misunderstandings that our family is close to the Wardanaz family? What if the Wardanaz family displeases you?’
‘no. People in my family don’t even read the imperial newspaper. ‘I don’t care what you say.’
Durgyu, who was worse off, stepped forward.
“Wardanaz has said several times that he has no intention of joining the Knights. That’s why Moradi reacted hastily. “My words were harsh, but please understand.”
“okay. “That’s it.”
“that’s right. That’s right.”
Lee Han and Giselle nodded with relief.
In fact, it was very dangerous for Lee Han to be misunderstood as wanting to join the Knights.
There are few jobs as difficult and arduous as being a driver.
If you think about it more calmly, you could react by saying, ‘What does that have to do with swearing?’, but the trainee engineer accepted it for now.
I had always been acquainted with Dergyu, and something else aroused my curiosity even more.
“Wardanaz. I think you can excel even if you join the Knights, but why? There are wizards in the knights too. They are treated with a lot of respect and help the knights. Moradi. “The Knights of the North, where your family is located…”
‘shut up. ‘You clueless bastard.’
Giselle succeeded in swallowing it this time.
If you want to recommend something to the Knights, Ji will recommend it to you. Why do you keep recommending it to Giselle?
Fortunately, Dergyu answered again.
“Wodanaz will stay in Einrogard even after graduation. “I have to study magic with her professors.”
“Are you out of your mind, Dergyu!?!?”
Lee Han shouted in horror.
This time, Dergyu looked slightly hurt.
* * *
It took some time for the trainees and students to resolve their misunderstandings and put their heads together.
“So the six of us have to spend a day in those mountains.”
Lee Han cautiously asked what the apprentice knight said.
“Do you know where it starts?”
“Of course not! haha. Wardanaz. “Then the test won’t work.”
‘Such a tactless bastard.’
Lee Han cursed the apprentice knight in his heart.
Einrogard students were locked inside, but what did these knights do when they came from outside and couldn’t ask a single question?
Professor Ingalldell would have been more lenient towards them.
“Wardanaz. “It’s a big deal.”
“Why?”
When Giselle whispered and asked, Lee Han was puzzled.
Of course, I didn’t hear where it started, but isn’t this a big deal?
“Originally, I was going to go into the mountain cabin and spend the night.”
“It was like that, right?”
“…Do these bastards look like they’ll tolerate that?”
“what? no. Of course I accept it…”
Lee Han, who was about to speak, stopped.
The eyes of the apprentice knights were much more straight and bright than expected.
what?
“for a moment. everyone. There’s one thing I’m curious about, and… I have other friends like this. “We are planning to hide a cabin in the mountains in advance and take shelter there.”
As soon as Lee Han finished speaking, the apprentice knight became disgusted.
“Doing such a mean thing? “Who on earth?”
“Wardanaz. I need to tell the professor now. Who is it?”
“…well. “I also heard it while passing by.”
Lee Han’s face became serious at the reaction of the apprentice knights.
Lee Han made an excuse for a moment and called his friends aside.

“no. Are all people from knight families like this? Isn’t preparing a mountain hut a skill? “How much trouble did you have to prepare the supplies to bring in there?”
In a sincere voice, Lee Han expressed his feelings to his friends.
What on earth do these trainee knights who have lived comfortably in a city outside of the city know to say things like that?
Lee Han and his friends worked hard even though they were busy to build a mountain cabin in various parts of the mountain range without being detected.
When I’m on duty at night, I sneak up, I wake up early in the morning and sneak up, I sneak up during my spare time during the day…
The materials to be put into it were like a thousand gold that had been obtained with great difficulty from outside.
How dare you ignore that!
“Even among those originally from knightly families, those who entered the knighthood early tend to be more stubborn.”
Giselle explained, agreeing with what Lee Han said.
Trained as apprentice knights from a young age to fulfill their role in the order, they were stubborn and did not know how to compromise.
That was fine, but the problem was that they were forcing it even on Einrogard students.
“Well, the White Tiger Top kids are good at compromising.”
“okay. …what?”
“…isn’t it that bad, Lee Han?”
Giselle and Durgyu protested without realizing it.
Although he came from a family of knights, being told that he was good at compromising did not sound like a compliment.
“Aren’t you good at compromising?”
“On what basis do you base such slander?”
“Last time, one of your top students was selling wooden swords on the black market. If you check, there will be a few kids without swords.”
‘Crazy bastards.’
Giselle cursed her fellow top students in her mind.
They were truly embarrassing bastards no matter where they went.
“Well… I must have been really hungry. “I might have been really, really hungry.”
“Hey… Choi. “Just shut up.”
Giselle gestured to her oblivious orc friend. The more she talked, the more bogged down she became.
“The important thing now is not how well our TOP compromises.”
‘You guys asked.’
Lee Han thought so, but kept his mouth shut out of consideration for his friends.
Durgyu lowered his head, and Giselle’s ears were turning red.
“How do I deal with those unhelpful things? The exam will start soon. I do not have time.”
“That is correct…”
Lee Han was lost in thought.
Professor Ingalldell may have tied the wizards and knights together to cooperate harmoniously, but it had the opposite effect.
It was an obstacle in itself for the three of us who were planning to find a mountain cabin in the mountains right away.
Lee Han, who was worried, spoke carefully.
“There is only one thing that comes to mind.”
“me too.”
“I thought of one too.”
The three looked at each other in surprise.
Everyone thinking the same thing at the same time?
Dergyu was very happy inside.
‘It’s worth fighting together for a year!’
I was always worried because the relationship between Giselle and Lee Han was not very good, but seeing this gave me some hope.
In the end, trials are what strengthen comradeship.
“Then shall we all talk together? three. two. one.”
“Let’s put him to sleep and then subdue him.”
“Stun him and then subdue him.”
“With fairness and skill… huh?”
Durgyu was embarrassed.
The other two friends’ answers were a little different from what I expected.
Since there is nothing we can do in the current situation, wouldn’t it be the right thing to do to give up and overcome it by working with the three apprentices?
Giselle also tilted her head.
Of course, that was a worry in a slightly different direction than Dergyu’s.
“Can you put it to sleep?”
“I made a sleeping potion with my friends. “You could just say it’s to prevent cold.”
“ah. It must be much more peaceful. good. Let’s go like that.”
Lee Han and Giselle quickly came to a conclusion.
Put the three apprentice knights to sleep, then tie them up and take them away!
“What’s wrong, Durgyu? “Is there anything I can improve on?”
“…It is nothing. “Let’s overcome them fairly and with skill… This is what I was trying to say.”
“haha. “That is correct.”
“It’s convenient because we can understand each other.”
Dergyu smiled forlornly at the words of his two friends.

Rattling, rattling-
“I never thought we would travel by carriage!”
Ravda of the Enge family was amazed.
I had no idea that these mountains could be traveled by carriage. Einrogard was not a school for wizards for nothing.
“It’s Ravda. He was clearly a master of swordsmanship, right?”
“It’s not even the moon. “I still have a long way to go.”
Ravda spoke humbly in response to Ihan’s words. However, I could feel the pride that could not be hidden from that appearance.
The Enge family’s swordsmanship focuses on the techniques of swordsmanship, and is a rare swordsmanship even in the empire.
Knights are already proud of their family’s swordsmanship, but in the case of Ravda, that pride was bound to be even stronger.
“amazing. I’m practicing the art of sword fighting, but I can’t believe I’m applying it to swordsmanship as well. “It’s hard to even imagine.”
“Thank you… huh?”
Ravda felt something strange.
‘How are you practicing?’
In the first place, was the trick to practicing it?
“ruler. Everyone, drink this.”
Lee Han handed over a potion in a round glass bottle. The apprentice knights looked at each other with curiosity.
“What is this?”
“It’s a potion that helps you withstand the cold.”
“oh. thanks.”
Gulp-gulp-
Lee Han smiled happily as he watched the apprentice knights drink the potion one after another.
“Do you happen to know where the carriage is going?”
“at all. “It doesn’t seem to move in the normal way.”
Giselle, who was checking the direction in which the carriage was moving with her eyes closed, frowned.
Even though there were no windows, this carriage had been moving in a direction that was physically impossible.
Even if you go up a slope, it suddenly drops down and moves backwards…
It was clear that he had flown or spaced out several times along the way.
Boom, squeak!
The carriage stopped and the door opened. It was a signal to get off.
Lee Han and his friends tied up the sleeping apprentices and carried them off one by one. Then the driverless carriage turned around and quickly disappeared downwards.
“My eyesight is getting worse…”
Dergyu groaned and checked his surroundings.
I had a feeling that the snowfall was getting thicker and that it wasn’t going to be easy.
“I heard there are giants in these mountains. “You probably won’t meet a giant.”
“You don’t have to worry about giants. “There are no giants now.”
“Right. Thank you… Uh, Lee Han. “But how do you know that?”
Durgyu asked, but Lee Han could not answer.
I was concentrating on checking the location of this area by looking at the map.
“found. “If you walk for about 30 minutes from here, you will come to the mountain cabin I prepared.”
“Uh… what on earth happened…?”
Ravda tried to wake up with a sleepy voice.
Giselle slashed Ravda’s solar plexus with all her might with the pommel of her sword. Ravda fell asleep again with a single scream.
“What’s going on?”
When Lee Han took his eyes off the map and asked, Giselle shrugged her shoulders.
“never mind. “Let’s go.”
