Episode 067
The Blue Dragon Tower students who arrived late were puzzled by the noisy common room and asked.
“what’s the matter?”
“Wardanaz said we should attack the White Tiger Tower and take the flag!”
“…Waaaaaa! “I was waiting!”
Each new student cheered when they heard about the situation.
“No matter how much you think about it, isn’t it better to exchange?”
Gainando muttered as if he still didn’t understand.
Lee Han became curious and asked.
It was quite rare for Guy Nando to express an opinion like that.
“Why do you think that?”
“If we exchange, we can solve tasks stably and without risk.”
“yes. But we decided it wouldn’t work because we couldn’t trust the White Tiger Tower guys.”
“The White Tiger Tower seemed trustworthy this time.”
“why?”
“I saw the White Tiger Tower kids giving me bread and milk and speaking kindly to me…”
“……”
Lee Han was astonished.
Giving bread and milk in a situation like this where you don’t have anything to eat for yourself was definitely not simple kindness.
No matter how much you give, it was only kindness up to half a loaf of bread. Anything beyond that was considered to have dark intentions.
‘Were you trying to buy off Gainando?’
Why…?
‘Well, now that I think about it, Gainando is a pretty good target.’
Because of their social status, they seem to have the right to speak out (of course, the White Tiger Tower students would not have been able to accurately understand the atmosphere inside the Blue Dragon Tower), and they look reasonably shabby, so they look good to stab…
Lee Han, who roughly understood the situation, thought about it before opening his mouth.
“good. Cainan Island. “Let’s do as you say first before we attack.”
“uh? really?”
“huh. “Go tell the White Tiger Tower guys that I’ve changed my mind.”
“You don’t tell the other kids?”
Gainando was puzzled.
Shouldn’t you tell your friends who are excited about the raid that your plans have changed a bit?
“If you tell them your great plan, they won’t accept it.”
“Well, that’s true too. “I’ll tell you and come back!”
Gainando set off immediately with confidence. Yoner, who was listening to their conversation next to him, looked worried.
Ihan nodded and said, as if he understood Yoner’s concerns.
“don’t worry. “The White Tiger Tower guys may have a bit of a nasty temper, but they wouldn’t capture and harass Gai Nando in a situation like this.”
“no. “I was worried that Guy Nando would betray me.”
“…Isn’t Gainando the type of person to do that?”
“But you don’t know what’s going on in the world. “I wish there was a potion that would prevent betrayal.”
“……”
Ihan became slightly afraid of Yoner.
After all, Gainando is your cousin!
* * *
“Are you done?”
“It’s done.”
White Tiger Tower students were satisfied with the stylish appearance of the flag.
Surprisingly, the White Tiger Tower students were seriously thinking about exchanging the flags.
…but it’s a fake flag!
It was a pretty ingenious idea to use a fake flag to take the opponent’s real flag.
Of course it wasn’t easy. Because I had to fool all the sharp-eyed Blue Dragon Tower students.
Thanks to this, White Tiger Tower students went to the Black Turtle Tower black market and exchanged the precious rabbit meat they caught over the weekend for fabric and dye.
Although we were all hungry and the bleeding was painful, there was nothing we could do.
“Moradi! it’s okay! The prince came over! Decide a time and place for the exchange! As we decided, we will meet in front of the main building tomorrow when the sun is overhead!”
Angago, a goat beastman student from the White Tiger Tower who went to meet Gainando, shouted in an excited voice.
“also! Angago, well done!”
“I ate such precious food, so I have to do this!”
Everyone was clapping and stamping their feet, but Giselle still looked uncomfortable.
Dukema, the dwarf student next to me, asked.
“What’s wrong, Moradi? Is there any problem?”
“I’m still not sure if the prince is useful…”
There was a reason why Giselle felt uncomfortable.
No matter what kind of group it was, the leader who led the group had a unique aura.
I hate to admit it, but I could tell just by looking at the Wadanaz family’s Lee Han.
Even if you don’t make it to the leader level, if you have a certain position within the group, you are bound to be noticed…
…Prince Kainandoran strangely did not feel anything like that.
“Moradi. Trust Angago’s eyes. “That prince will definitely be a useful lever.”
“that’s right. i think so too.”
When Dukema took Angago’s side, all the other students joined in.

‘What does it mean to be a bastard with no ability but only confidence?’
Of course, Giselle did not fall for the friendship of such friends.
Looking at it objectively, Anrago was not that capable.
If you had the ability, you wouldn’t have run away crying when the three of you went to deal with Wardanaz!
But Giselle said no more.
Even though Giselle was acting like a boss in the White Tiger Tower, she couldn’t do everything her own way.
Even her friends who believed in Giselle’s abilities and family and followed her orders had feelings and were dissatisfied, as they were humans.
If I were to force Giselle’s orders too arbitrarily, I could have gone astray.
Sometimes, Giselle had to show that she was listening to what her friends were saying. Perhaps because they were knights, they were all very sensitive to this kind of pride.
“okay. “If Angago says that, it’s probably true.”
“lol.”
Anrago scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed expression.
‘Even if it fails anyway, it’s a false flag.’
Even if the transaction fails or the other party prepares a trap, it should be assumed that there will be no damage to either side.
Even if you fail, at best you will lose a false flag that you have no use for.
Giselle thought so and nodded.
“good. Then everyone disperses. “Let’s exchange it tomorrow.”
“okay!”

A night when everyone is asleep.
Lee Han and his friends were moving outside the tower under the cover of darkness.
Surprisingly, it wasn’t just the Blue Dragon Tower students. There was also one Black Turtle Tower student in the mix.
That was Ratford, a pro at stealing.
“Please follow me.”
Since Lee Han was not walking around alone, he needed the attention of a professional thief.
Fortunately, Ratford readily accepted Lee Han’s request.
“omg.”
Yoner sucked in a breath and made a noise of surprise. Lee Han was also nervous.
what?
“why?”
“…I should have called Nilia too…!”
“!!!”
Lee Han also realized his mistake too late.
Of course, I didn’t need Nilia’s abilities to go robbing, but from what I heard later, Nilia was definitely…
“Ratford. “If Nilia asks later, I’ll tell you I never called you.”
“All right?”
“…no. “It must somehow get into my ears.”
Because there were so many people, it seemed impossible not to get into Nilia’s ears later.
‘Let’s explain later.’
“That’s the White Tiger Tower.”
In the darkness, only the moonlight illuminated the tower that stood tall. Lee Han nodded and slowly approached. It wasn’t too unfamiliar to me as I’ve been here a few times.
“Everyone remember the plan, right? “Act as planned.”
The Blue Dragon Tower students nodded with nervous expressions.
In fact, there was no plan at all.
Lee Han and Ratford enter the White Tiger Tower first.
The other friends hid nearby, and when Lee Han told them to come in, they came in. When Lee Han told them not to come in, they just had to wait.
But that doesn’t mean there’s anything you can do about being nervous.
In particular, since they were all from great imperial families, this was the first time such a midnight attack had occurred.
“Rat… Mr. Ratford. Can you hold a branch in your mouth silently? “I heard that from reading the novel.”
“There is no one patrolling, and there are only a few numbers, so there is no need to do that.”
“Mr Ratford. “I wrapped my shoes in cloth to make no noise!”
“It might slip at night, so it would be better to loosen it.”
Thanks to that, Ratford happened to be a daily theft instructor. Lee Han gestured to Ratford.
“let’s go.”
“yes.”
Lee Han and Ratford stood in front of the White Tiger Tower door. It felt natural, as if I was in my own tower.
Asan, who was clenching his sweaty palms behind him, suddenly became curious.
‘Ratford, even so, why are you so familiar with Wardanaz…?’
Lee Han held his breath and placed his hand on the tower.
And I tried to read the magic contained within this tower.
“…!”
At that moment, Lee Han almost collapsed.
When people try to take in too much knowledge and information at once, they feel distant.
What Lee Han felt right now was similar.
There were countless spells hanging in this tower.
Moreover, this was largely due to Lee Han’s excellent mana detection ability.
Other students would have noticed at most one or two simple magic spells nearby, but Lee Han could sense everything above them.
“Are you okay?!”
Ratford was surprised to see Lee Han sweating coldly and whispered.
“are you okay. are you okay. I was just a little embarrassed. “It really is not that easy.”
“The Wizard’s Tower is not an easy place to enter. “If you’re having a hard time…”
“no. Let’s do it.”
Lee Han concentrated on not reading the entire tower.
The only thing you have to break through anyway is the magic blocking the entrance!
Wooooow-
“…!”
A huge amount of magical energy began to gather. So much so that even the relatively insensitive Ratford could feel the magic power gathering.
‘Are you okay…me?’
Ratford was worried.
With that much magical power, Lee Han could have been seriously injured if he made a mistake.
‘no. If you are Wodanaz…’
Boom!!!!!!!
“!!”
“!!!!”
A huge wave of magical power spread out to the point that even the Blue Dragon Tower students behind him were surprised.
And Lee Han shouted.
“The door is broken! Everyone come in!!”
“Go… let’s go!”
* * *
-master. The magic of the White Tiger Tower has stopped.
Anti-magic bastards again?! How did you get over the wall?
The skeleton principal, who was researching magic in a deep underground workshop, was surprised for the first time in a long time.
-It looks like the new students have stopped.
ah. If that’s the case. Things like that happen, too. Everyone, look at the assignment I gave you. I’ll do it in advance.
The skeleton principal quickly regained his composure.
for a moment. Even at a rookie level, you probably won’t be able to fake the tower’s magic… Did you get the artifact? What kind of bastards leaked the artifact? ah. Nope. There was another way.
The mumbling skeleton principal quickly found the correct answer.
Among the new students, there was one who could temporarily stop the tower’s magic.
Did you hit it with force? Ignorant… but where did you learn that method?
The skeleton principal looked slightly puzzled.
Since such an ignorant method had no practical use and was even dangerous, not only books but also professors at school did not teach it well.
To dispel the magic, you have to understand the structure and find the cracks. What kind of ignorant bastard would just use force to strike it down?
-Do I need to find it?
no. You stupid skeleton. I didn’t say that to you. Even if the entrance is breached, there must be other magic to block intruders, right? What happened to that?
The magic of the White Tiger Tower was not limited to the entrance.
There are various intrusion prevention magics installed inside the tower as well.
-Most other defensive spells have also stopped.
……
The skeleton headmaster paused again.
Not only did the entrance break through, but other magic also stopped?
‘No, this ignorant guy…!’
How hard was it that the other magic stopped?
