Episode 687
“What did you just do?!”
Ihan and Illendil were startled by Direth’s shout.
“Crazy line… No, did Senior Yukbeltyre discover this place?”
“Son of a bitch… No, did Senior Yukbeltyre discover this place?”
“…Yukveltire went earlier. “Didn’t he just say that he had just made the ‘Free from the Skull’ potion?”
Lee Han was puzzled and answered the question.
“Not yet.”
“Yeah, right?”
Upon hearing his junior’s answer, Delet wondered if he had made a mistake and tried to sit down again.
“I have to complete the undiluted solution and then dilute it.”
“……”
Direth was speechless at his junior’s absurd answer.
If you complete the undiluted solution right before dilution, isn’t it virtually complete?
“How did you make it? <Liberation from the Skull> must be a pretty difficult potion, right?”
“Thanks to my love for the spirits…”
Illendil tried to speak warmly with a happy heart, but Lee Han answered first.
“It was possible because the process is similar to the <Dobruk’s Haunting Potion> that I helped make, and there are many processes that can be replaced with magical power. “Senior Illendil did some of the complicated groundwork in advance.”
Illendil waved his hand lazily as if it was no big deal.
“More than that, <Dobruk’s enchantment potion>… Where did you make it?”
Dobruk’s enchantment potion was also a very difficult and difficult potion to make, so a first-year student would never make it.
“I made it while helping Yoanen of the Makin family with his work.”
Clink!
Illendil dropped the enamel bowl he was holding.
Then he looked at Lee Han with eyes of astonishment.
“May… you worked under Mr. Ikin…?”
‘Do you have any grudges with Yoanen?’
Lee Han was slightly embarrassed by his senior’s reaction.
I had no idea there would be such a strong reaction.
“yes. “I worked there last time.”
“How did you survive…?”
“……”
Ihan couldn’t respond right away to Illendil’s mutterings.
It was true that Yoanen’s workshop required harsh work.
“Well, it wasn’t as difficult as I thought.”
“The nickname of that place is the place where alchemists grind ingredients instead of reagents…”
“Now that I think about it, Yoanen was a bit scary. “I was scared too.”
Ihan quickly abandoned Ioanen.
I felt like if I took his side for no reason, I would become a strange person too.
Illendil comforted Ihan as if he felt sorry.
“I think it must have been a lot of hardship. “To make a potion like that in a workshop…”
“Well, actually, that won’t be a big problem for my junior. “You don’t have to worry so much.”
Delet added from the side.
Considering what Lee Han had done so far, making potions in the workshop would have been easy.
Of course, Illendil, who did not know the inside story, was secretly disgusted.
‘As expected, he’s a scary person…!’
Leading a school of black magic with iron blood and without blood or tears was not something everyone could do.
* * *
The wizards who were wandering around like cultists gave up and disappeared, and dawn began to dawn in the distance.
Lee Han, who was diligently making potions with Illendil (he packed the finished products neatly in his backpack), looked outside and said.
“I think we can leave now.”
“okay. Thank you again. “I visited the workshop like this and they made me feel welcome.”
Illendil seemed embarrassed by Direth’s words, as if it was no big deal.
“We are also juniors from the same school…”
‘Hmm.’
Delet looked at Lee Han with complicated eyes.
It was common to look out for people from the same school, but strictly speaking, Lee Han was a junior from the same school as almost all of his seniors.
‘Let’s not talk about it for nothing.’
Direth held back his words for Illendil’s sake.
No matter how eccentric a person was, he needed at least one competent junior.
“…Because I am taking care of the dark spirit.”
“!”
Lee Han paused.
‘Oops.’
When I thought about it, the promise I made when I parted ways with Illendil was that I would take good care of the dark spirit (with whom I had been forced to contract).
‘I haven’t summoned you since then…’
Usually, there are situations where it is necessary to summon a spirit.
The problem was that there was never really a need for the Dark Spirit.

Since the dark element is one of the most difficult and difficult of the elements, there were many cases where the help of spirits was needed when handling it, but Lee Han just used it on his own and succeeded.
In the case of fire elementals or cold elements, it is easy to ask them to do small tasks, but it is difficult to do such things with dark elements…
From Lee Han’s perspective, there was nothing he could do about not calling him out.
“Can we meet sometime?”
Illendil asked with sparkling eyes.
Seeing that, Lee Han felt very burdened.
‘I think he already hated me. If you summon it, won’t it just attack like this?’
Preparing to fight back if attacked, Lee Han carefully summoned a lesser dark spirit.
A dark elemental spirit gathered into a round ball appeared.
“Well, how have you been…?”
When Illendil called, the dark elemental spirit turned around.
Last time, although he was in a state of intoxication, his attitude was quite favorable, as if he remembered the owner who created him to some extent.
In addition, since Illendil was a dryad mix, he was initially liked by the spirits.
“Are there any inconveniences… or any problems in the spirit world? “What about elemental power?”
Lee Han was a little nervous as he watched the two talking.
There was no way to know when the dark spirit would accuse Lee Han.
“Is the contract okay?”
After receiving the question, the dark spirit spun around and pretended to kneel down on Lee Han.
It was an image of loyalty to anyone who saw it.
“Looks like you’re okay!”
“It’s rare for spirits to show such loyalty. I guess they’ve been together for a long time?”
Not only Illendil, but even Delet was amazed.
And Lee Han was also amazed.
“???”
I never summoned it, but I couldn’t understand why the dark spirit did that.
Even the last time I met him, he was full of hostility!
“I. senior.”
“?”
Delet turned his gaze when Lee Han called in a whisper.
“That dark spirit.”
“Hey. Isn’t it great? It would be difficult to receive loyalty from a spirit like that, but it is a dark spirit. “How did you meet?”
Lee Han felt that if he told what Illendil did, things would become more awkward between them, so he slowly changed the topic and answered.
“You haven’t been summoned once since you signed the contract last time. Why are you doing that?”
“…what?”
Delet couldn’t believe his ears.
Usually, time was essential to become familiar with spirits.
Time accumulated by wizards and spirits.
That time is what firmly bonds two beings from different dimensions and completes their friendship.
But I’ve never been summoned.
“Why didn’t you summon me?”
“I don’t have anything to summon…?”
“Have you ever needed the dark element? “You summoned the skeleton by combining it with the dark element, right?”
“I just cast that.”
“……”
Delet realized that having too much talent was also a problem.
I’ve done everything that should have been done with the help of spirits.
Maybe the reason this junior wasn’t close to spirits wasn’t just because of his magical power.
“It’s normal to show that kind of obedience even if you haven’t spent any time getting to know each other…”
“commonly?”
“It’s because I’m scared.”
“…I didn’t do anything.”
“Even if you don’t do anything directly to the spirit, the spirit is sensitive to the wizard’s life history. Let’s see, junior, you…”
Delet looked back on Lee Han’s recent actions.
Starting from the Vuitton Mountains to the work done at the exchange center.
…There were too many things to figure out.
“I guess that’s why you’re scared.”
“Oh, no. “You said loyalty earlier.”
“It’s similar to loyalty due to fear or loyalty due to love.”
As someone who was not a student of the dark magic school, Direth had no qualms about subduing summoned beasts with fear.
Basically, since many of the summons of the undead dimension were violent, warlocks had to wield fear like a whip to subdue them.
Of course, Lee Han couldn’t help but feel nervous as he pursued a slightly different direction from his seniors.
“Perhaps they were happy with your kindness because they didn’t summon you…”
“I don’t think spirits think like humans. Junior. Just accept it. Some people become friends with spirits, but others have no choice but to submit to them.”
Lee Han glared slightly at the black magic school senior who only chose unhelpful words.
I thought it was really ironic that someone might not be Yukveltire’s friend.
Illendil, unaware of the conversation between the two, even said goodbye after speaking with the dark spirit.
“Huh. “I’m so happy to see you so healthy…”
Seeing Illendil happy with tears in his eyes, Ihan and Direth showed complicated expressions.
Delet spoke quickly to change the subject.
“Junior. When are you going to Grandeur City? “It’s probably time to go.”
“yes? “There’s still quite a bit of time left, right?”
As the vacation ended and the new semester approached, students would usually gather in the city of Grandeur, the nearest large city to Einrogard.
Of course, Lee Han and his friends had plans to go to Grandeur City, but not now, with at least two weeks left.
Why stay so close to Einrogard?
“ah. but. “I don’t know because this is your first time.”
Delet realized belatedly about Lee Han’s reaction and began to explain.
“It’s usually not a good idea to stay in Grandeur City during winter break. “As it is close to Einrogard, there is a high possibility of meeting the professor.”
“I met you even though I came all the way to Flaher City.”
“It’s because you were destined to attract the professor. Junior.”
Delet responded calmly. Lee Han looked at his senior with a hurt expression.
How can you say that?
“It’s not a bad idea to delay arriving at Grandeur City as long as possible, but everyone starts arriving early once they reach their second year.”
“Why?”
“To prepare things to take to school.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised by Direth’s words.
“Uh, can that be done from second year onwards?”
Einrogard was not a school that particularly needed preparation.
All necessary books and equipment were not provided by the school, and students had to obtain them themselves.
But starting in the second year, you start bringing the necessary items with you.
Is it because the level of magic required has increased that much?
“That’s fascinating. I can’t believe the principal allows that from second grade onwards. “I thought you would ban it.”
“……”
“……”
Direth and Illendil stared at Ihan.
From that gaze, Lee Han realized that he had judged something wrong.
“Wait a minute, no way…”
“Of course you won’t allow it. “What I was just talking about was smuggling.”
What Dilett said was a story of smuggling, not of taking it in officially.
Principal Skeleton naturally forbade students from bringing in outside items. It didn’t change whether I was in 1st or 6th grade.
However, all students who spent more than a year at Einrogard felt the need for external supplies.
Where there is need, there is magic.
Einrogard students tried to get as many items into the school as possible at the start of the new semester, regardless of any means possible.
“Can’t I leave midway through the semester and bring supplies with me?”
“…Junior. “You know that students like you who leave and come back aren’t usually common, right?”
Delet looked pitifully at his junior who was calmly saying more difficult things.
