Episode 586
no!
“Isn’t it?”
Despite the skeletal headmaster’s straight face, Professor Passelette did not readily accept.
Just as students who have been at Einrogard for a long time become more experienced, professors who have been at Einrogard for a long time also become more seasoned.
One of the signs was not easily trusting the principal’s words.
…While I’m visiting the capital with Wardanaz, I’m also looking for new students.
“aha!”
Professor Passelette immediately understood what the skeleton headmaster meant.
The magical power possessed by the boy from the Wardanaz family would be sufficient to replace the magical power drawn from Einrogard’s ley lines.
however…
“Is that okay?”
There won’t be any trouble.
‘That’s not the problem, is it?’
Of course, I knew that the boy from the Wardanaz family had so much magic that there was no problem using it like that, but the best magic school in the empire had to pay some attention to how it looked from the outside.
Of course, don’t go anywhere and say it.
“principal…”
Professor Passelette looked at the skeleton headmaster, but it was no use.
If you were someone who would be swayed by the professor’s gaze, you wouldn’t be able to become the principal of Einrogard in the first place.
Why are you looking at me? Is there anything else to say?
“doesn’t exist. Please take care of the new students.”
That’s what I’ll tell the new students.
The skeleton principal grumbled.
I already felt a rush of annoyance.
As the opportunity to be invited to the best magic school in the glorious empire was rare, it was often assumed that all new students would rush forward, but surprisingly, there were quite a few new students who did not want to attend.
Starting with students who come from a great noble family of the empire and want to learn from a separate teacher or magic tower, students are considering other magic schools.
Still, this was okay.
Because the student wasn’t interested in magic.
When I gently persuaded them through conversation, most of them were convinced and said, ‘Oh, of course Einroguard would be good.’
The more difficult cases were students who had no interest in magic, or rather, were in an environment that tried to prevent them from doing so.
-No, does it make sense to send our family’s slave to Einrogard?
-under! Now this guy is a member of the <Three Rats> guild. How much money does he earn from begging so that he can be sent to school?
If a student came from a background such as a slave or a criminal, they would not let them go easily.
Then, the skeleton principal also began to speak harshly.
-Still, it’s an honor, and I’ll pay the price…
-I don’t like it. Give ten times as much.
-Does this newborn, bloody bastard dare to negotiate in front of me, His Majesty’s Demon Commander and Guardian of the Magic Barrier? I will destroy all the blood of your short family and grind your family to dust until there is not even a rock left! ruler. What will you pay for your family? Talk about it!
After this kind of conversation, you will now be scolded by the emperor and criticized by imperial officials…
In any case, bringing in new students was difficult.
Actually, this is the reason why I wanted to take Wardanaz with me.
“indeed. “Do you want me to assist you in fighting criminals?”
Yeah… no! What are you talking about? I’m talking about persuading citizens of the empire, not criminals!
The skeleton principal, who was about to agree without thinking, was taken aback.
What was expected from Wardanaz was his unique social skills.
The social ability to quickly become friends not only with noble families but also with people from various classes.
This was an ability that was difficult for any of Einroguard’s seniors to easily imitate.
I took him with me because I thought that if I took Wardanaz with me, it would be easier to persuade him, and the headmaster himself would be less angry. I didn’t take him with me to help him fight.
I took Professor Garcia with me to assist in the fight!
“yes? “You’re not Professor Bagrek?”
okay. Professor Bagrek. Didn’t you say it was Professor Bagrek?
“You said it was Professor Garcia.”
You must have heard wrong. Professor Craer. Are you the principal? Am I the principal? Did the principal make a mistake or the professor misheard?
‘He seems like a truly foolish archmage.’
When Professor Passelette was at a disadvantage, he changed his tone and criticized the skeleton principal who appealed to his authority.
But these debates were always unfavorable to those of lower status. The professor held back his anger as he recalled this year’s budget for the Prescient Magic School.
“Since you’re here, could you please check this? “This is the final exam for new students.”
The final exam for freshmen shouldn’t be any problem.
Principal Skeleton was well aware of the dangers of precognitive magic.
Among the upper grades, when you consider the number of students whose condition is deteriorating, they are always at the top of the list.
However, if it was just a freshman exam, it wasn’t that dangerous. The Skeleton Headmaster looked at the strange trinkets and amulets spread out on the table and nodded.
Is it an amulet?
Precognitive wizards who receive the most direct compensation for predicting the future.
Wizards thoroughly studied ways to avoid the consequences.
Reduce the risk itself by sharing, receiving on behalf of others, and making the results of foresight ambiguous…
One of them was an amulet-fighting accessory.
Accessories that are closely connected to the future show the results of foresight and are also armor for which one pays the price.
Unlike other artifacts, these accessories had to be more detailed and sophisticated, because if there was even the slightest error, the price of foresight would immediately go to the wizard.
There doesn’t seem to be any problem. hmm…

“Then I’m glad.”
ah. Will Wardanaz tell you to make an amulet with this?
When the skeleton principal remembered, he brought back bones from the subspace warehouse.
Professor Passelette frowned at the material, which was clearly hideous and radiated powerful magic.
There was no reason to use such harsh materials for the first-year final exam.
Don’t look at me like that. Because it all has meaning.
“principal. “I respect the headmaster, but I can also send letters to His Majesty the Emperor…”
‘Such a pathetic professor.’
The skeleton principal cursed Professor Passelette in his mind.
He needs to use this much. The strength of the foresight magic is considerable.
“So… Is that so? “Wouldn’t it be okay to just use a weak precognition spell?”
To Professor Passelette’s words, the professor’s other personalities, who were quietly listening, began to refute.
-Well, if you do that, there will be fewer students than the black magic school…
-They say a genius has his own extraordinary path!!
Professor Passelette, who was becoming increasingly annoyed by the annoying behavior both inside and outside, sighed and said.
“But you still have to choose. “You don’t want to make things worse for yourself.”
When I asked him, he said he wanted to make it more difficult. Is it okay?
“Is that so?”
-What did I say…
Professor Passelette suppressed his other personality for a moment, then nodded.
If you agreed…
“All right.”
Tsk tsk tsk tsk.
“Did you just laugh?”
Professor Craer. My hearing seems to be a little bad these days.

After leaving the private room, Lee Han realized that sleep was more important than he thought.
“Maybe… maybe I’m acting weird because I haven’t slept so much.”
“……”
Priest Tigiling looked at Lee Han with astonishment, as if he were looking at the most reckless person in the world.
You mean that?
“All I had to do was get a perfect score, but I don’t know why I was so stubborn. haha.”
“……”
Priest Tigiling said nothing and poured tea into the teacup in front of Lee Han.
“But the transformation magic test is… ugh. Ugh.”
The Tigiling priest didn’t say anything and put the chocolate into Ihan’s mouth. Lee Han gulped and drank his tea.
“How is the transformation magic test going?”
The Tigiling priest said nothing…
“oh. Wardanaz. You woke up. “Let’s go together!”
Priest Siana, who was planning a way to attack the Oksup classroom on the third floor with other students in the area next to the lounge, was glad to see Lee Han awake.
Because it’s always been a reliable force for things like this.
“Uuuuuuuup.”
“I’m glad you’re coming with me… ah. “Why Tijiling?”
“it’s nothing.”
The Tigiling priest, who was about to glare, sighed lightly and said.
“Well, everyone… Is it really necessary to attack the classroom like that before the exam?”
Priest Tigiling was wondering whether it was really necessary to resolve the abnormality in the classroom so proactively before the exam.
Wouldn’t it be okay to wait a little longer and see what happens?
Even if it’s the person who is taking all the exams from different schools, shouldn’t it be better to leave it to other people?
“Maybe it was a coincidence, or maybe the professor made a mistake?”
“no way. “It must be the professor’s trap.”
“that’s right. “It must be the professor’s trap.”
“It feels like a trap to me too, Professor…”
“!?”
Tigiling was taken aback by the reaction not only from the other tower students but also from the Phoenix Tower students.
I thought that priests would usually respect professors and respond by saying, “Professor, you may have made a mistake.”
The priests very actively suspected the professor, as if he had been influenced by someone.
“no. “It’s fascinating.”
I was surprised that Lee Han felt that too. Tijeeling opened his eyes wide and looked at Ihan.
“Did you feel it?”
“okay. “This is probably because the professors’ viciousness has gone too far.”
“……”
“Even these pure priests are suspicious of professors. “I have to lie to you to be like this.”
“……”
“yes? Tigiling priest?”
“…yes…”
Tigiling gave up and sighed.
In fact, this change in priests was not necessarily a bad thing.
Normally, this spacious freshman lounge would have been filled with quiet silence, but after Lee Han came, it was noisy with people talking to each other (and some fighting over their faith).
“ruler. “Let’s go and solve the professor’s plot!”
“Waaah!”
“In the name of Master Flemain!”
“In the name of Agletakwa!”

Although the warehouse manager, whose eyes were covered with bandages, was blind, he was a source of fear to the Einrogard students.
The sound of footsteps heard when secretly robbing the kitchen and warehouse at night.
Once caught in that footsteps, escaping was nearly impossible.
The warehouse manager, the object of such fear, was now standing in front of the Jade Forest classroom with a very disapproving look.
The nutmeg tree spirit, who was in charge of the headmaster’s forest keeper, was very sorry and apologized.
-I did it wrong…
From the perspective of the forest keeper who manages the Skeleton Principal’s forests located within the Einrogard main building, it was an unfortunate mistake that the front of the Jade Forest classroom turned into a jungle.
While bringing in some plants from outside as instructed by the headmaster, the seeds were accidentally spilled.
Seeds spilled in other areas were recovered before problems occurred, but some areas eventually became deforestation…
One of them was right here.
The warehouse manager, whose patrol route was broken, looked very dissatisfied and signaled for the problem to be resolved quickly.
The forest keeper apologized and apologized, and was barely able to send the warehouse keeper away.
-The jungle…what’s wrong…
After the warehouse manager left, the nutmeg tree spirit grumbled inaudibly.
Of course, you might get a little lost, but isn’t it much more beautiful than an ordinary main building hallway?
While the nutmeg tree spirit was wondering how to clear this jungle, the sound of new footsteps was heard in his ears.
They were first year students.
‘I have to send it back…’
The forest keeper, who was trying to send the freshmen away by setting up a tree in front, belatedly recognized Lee Han’s face.
It was clear that he was the master’s disciple that other warehouse keepers and steeple keepers often talked about.
-I came… to help…?
The students were surprised by the sudden appearance of the nutmeg tree spirit.
Lee Han raised the priests who had fallen while trying to hide behind him and asked carefully.
“By any chance is your name…?”
-I am… a forest keeper… more than that… am I here to help…?
Lee Han quickly turned his head.
What is the most appropriate response when caught trespassing?
“yes!”
-also…! I heard it often…!
“…?”
Lee Han became slightly ominous when it seemed like the other person knew him.
Why do I feel like I made a mistake?
