Episode 069
It might be new to me now, but magic school was not a safe place.
A place where many dangerous things are bound to happen, even if you exclude the professor.
New wizards learning magic immediately couldn’t avoid using it even if they tried to avoid accidents.
The summoned beast running rampant now was one of those examples.
The upper grades, who had tried to prepare summons for magic experiments at the beginning of the semester, failed to control them.
‘…No, no matter how much we fail to control it, does it make sense to cause trouble on campus like this? ‘Isn’t this a fundamental problem with the school system?’
Lee Han was dumbfounded after hearing Professor Garcia’s explanation.
Still, without giving up any hope, Lee Han asked again.
“I heard that other summons also escaped… It will be sorted out soon, right? “Aren’t the greatest wizards in the empire here at school?”
“Sure.”
Lee Han was relieved at Professor Garcia’s words.
Still, it can be resolved!
“It will all be caught in about a month. “Student Lee Han.”
“……”
Lee Han’s face hardened. Because it was dark and he was concentrating on the vine monster, Professor Garcia did not notice the expression.
“…Then what should I do for a month?”
“You have to be careful while traveling, right?”
Professor Garcia was serious.
I’m not saying this with any malice, but wouldn’t we really be careful if released summoned beasts were wandering around in hiding on campus?
…Of course, from Lee Han’s perspective, it was an absurd statement.
‘A professor is a professor!’
No matter how kind the professor was, he still had a certain amount of madness inside him.
Suddenly!
“Gam, thank you! thank you!”
Professor Garcia summoned a ring of sharp winds to cut down the vine monster’s vines and safely rescued the captured White Tiger Tower student.
Although it may seem simple on the outside, it was a highly complex sequence of magic that threatened a vine monster with mental magic, cut the vines with wind elemental magic, and then safely caught the falling White Tiger Tower student with gravity distortion magic.
Lee Han could not believe that Professor Garcia had accomplished all of this by condensing all of this into simple movements without even taking a breath.
‘amazing!’
When I saw it properly last time, not when I was busy, but when I had some free time, Professor Garcia’s magic reminded me of a ballerina.
Just as a virtuoso ballerina creates an unrivaled aura just by extending her arms and lifting her legs, Professor Garcia did the same.
“are you okay?”
“Ughhhhh!”
The White Tiger Tower student was so scared that he burst into tears, forgetting that he came from a family of knights.
Or maybe it was because it was the first professor who spoke such kind words to me since entering this school.
“But why was the student out at this time of night?”
“Ugh, Wardanaz… came into the lounge… and took our tower flag…”
“……”
Professor Garcia turned his head with a bewildered expression.
Coming out at night was absurd, but breaking through the magic of the lounge was even more absurd.
how?
But Lee Han was no longer there. He had already run away.
* * *
Although they returned safely with the flag, the expressions on the Blue Dragon Tower students’ faces were subtle.
Before I could rejoice, I heard a voice coming from outside.
The summoned creatures have escaped from the school, so students should be careful. I’ll say it again. Since the summoned animals escaped from the school…
The students had nothing to say anymore.
It was a school that gave new shocks every week.
A school where something new appears every time you think, ‘There’s nothing new anymore, right?’
How can I be nervous even on campus?
“……”
“…Didn’t someone among the professors free it?”
One of the Blue Dragon Tower students muttered.
If it had been the first week, the reaction would have been something like ‘what nonsense’, but now everyone was seriously skeptical.
“The professor must have solved it. “I think the principal…”
“no! “The thunderous professor is suspicious!”
“Why can’t we fix it?”
Lee Han, who was listening quietly, thought to himself.
‘Isn’t it because professors are annoying?’
Thinking about it, it was a bit strange that it took about a month.
How many wizards are there in this vast magic school?
If such outstanding professors were to be mobilized to lay siege, it was normal for it to be sorted out quickly, regardless of whether the summoned animal or the dragon escaped.
But basically, professors did not move easily.
Mistakes made by oneself are resolved by having the disciples under them, and mistakes made by the disciples are even more resolved by having the disciples resolve them.
Therefore, there is no way they could take action in this case of a summoned animal escaping…
‘If I tell you, everyone will be shocked, so I’ll have to keep my mouth shut.’
Lee Han kept his mouth shut out of consideration for the students.
“At least let me know which ones escaped! “Aren’t seniors too much of a person?!”

“That’s right!”
The anger went past the professor and towards the older students whose faces I did not know.
The freshmen were furious and cursed at the older students.
Aren’t they suffering because of their incompetent seniors?
“Stop talking and eat breakfast. “Everyone had a hard time that night, so I paid special attention.”
Lee Han lifted the large pot hung in front of the fireplace.
The red color of tomato beef stew made the Blue Dragon Tower students happy.
Although there was a considerable amount of food brought from outside, Lee Han had no intention of wasting it. You don’t know when you will be able to go out again.
However, in the current situation, I didn’t know if it would be okay to at least give generously. Because everyone had a hard time.
‘I need to grow some more vegetables.’
Lee Han was thinking of expanding the cabin garden.
Not only sweet potatoes and potatoes, but also wheat, and some fruit trees around…
‘I also want to increase the number of chickens. If I raise pigs, will Professor Thunderwalk treat me like a crazy person?’
What I felt while managing the garden was that fresh vegetables are very important in human life.
Just having access to fresh vegetables made a difference in the quality of my meals.
The tomato beef stew I just brought was the same. The umami and aroma were the tomato sauce and spices, and the impact that caught the eye was the large chunks of beef…
Vegetables such as onions, garlic, carrots, potatoes, and mushrooms helped give this stew a rich and deep flavor.
Since I did the preliminary work by frying these vegetables…
‘What am I thinking right now?’
Lee Han paused in realization.
Somehow, after coming to school, it seemed like I was gaining more insight into other areas than about magic.
After working hard all night, the Blue Dragon Tower students poured a lot of stew into their bowls and enjoyed breakfast with bread.
Eating a warm breakfast with sunlight coming through the stained glass in the lounge made me feel like I was back at home.
The summoned creatures have escaped from the school, so students should be careful. I’ll say it again. Since the summoned animals escaped from the school…
“…I have lost my appetite…”
“Then shall I eat it?”
“Can’t you get your hands off me? “I challenge you to a duel.”
Lee Han got up, picked up a bowl, and headed to the princess’s private room.
Now I’m used to not having to ask other students to do it.
“?”
However, the door did not open as usual. Lee Han gave up and returned when the princess did not answer no matter how many times he knocked on the door.
“what’s the matter? “The princess said she wouldn’t eat it?”
“no. “There is no answer.”
“iced coffee. You seem to be sleeping. “You must have been tired yesterday…”
The students attending the princess nodded with an expression of understanding.
Well, since something like that happened yesterday, it was understandable that I was tired.
Lee Han was slightly stung.
‘You probably don’t take my threat of hostage to heart, do you?’
Unlike Gainando, Aden Arth had abilities and had many students who worshiped him.
Even if it’s not now, it would be quite annoying if Adenart said during vacation, ‘Wardanaz captured me and used me hostage.’
So I put a lot of beef in the stew…
“Then let’s not wake him up for no reason. Wardanaz. thank you. “The princess is very short-tempered, but I don’t think she can refuse it out of sincerity if you bring it to her personally.”
“…?”
Lee Han tilted his head.
Did you?
‘I think I ate really well…’
Guyando, who was eating stew next to him while scraping the wooden bowl with a spoon, asked.
“Isn’t it better to wake up early than to starve? “You can sleep anytime, but eating…”
“Don’t talk nonsense, Gainando! “Do you think the princess is like you?”
“that’s right! “You’re not that obsessed with food!”
In fact, Lee Han also had similar thoughts as Gai Nando.
Since you can sleep at any time, I think it would be better to wake up, eat, and then go back to sleep…
‘done. ‘The followers are probably right.’
“But Lee Han.”
“?”
“Are you okay with class this morning?”
“Morning class… ah.”
Ihan checked the paper and paused at Yoner’s words.
“It’s probably okay.”
“……”
Yoner’s eyes were saying, ‘No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think it’s okay.’

“……”
“……”
Basic swordsmanship class.
As it happened last night, the White Tiger Tower students were glaring at Lee Han with very, very uncomfortable expressions.
The only person who spoke to Lee Han was Durgyu.
Durgyu spoke strongly.
“There was no need to do that out of consideration for me. “Lee Han.”
The moment Durgyu fell after being hit in the chin, he realized.
That the honorable Lee Han took on the role of a villain for Dergyu.
After waking up, the White Tiger Tower students got angry and asked, ‘Do you know what that bastard said to you?’, but Durgyu did not waver.
“If you can’t do what you should do because you’re worried about what other friends think, then you’re not a real friend. A true friend understands both honor and friendship.”
“Those are touching words. “Durgyu.”
Lee Han thought to himself, ‘The fact that I came in to steal the flag yesterday didn’t really have anything to do with honor,’ but for now, he respected Dergyu and nodded.
When the person you hit on the chin forgives, you should quietly close your mouth and listen.
“So from now on, there is no need for you to call yourself a villain.”
“Okay, okay.”
Of course, Lee Han planned to act similarly if something similar happened in the future, regardless of what Dergyu said or not.
Dergyu says he doesn’t care, but there’s no way the other White Tiger Tower friends don’t care either.
Even now, the White Tiger Tower students were glaring at Lee Han.
“Durgyu is being fooled again…!”
“Don’t let me have any contact with that guy!”
Some students even gritted their teeth and hit the wall with their bodies to prevent anyone from approaching.
Anyone who sees it will think that Dergyu was brainwashed by Lee Han.
“Good morning. Everyone.”
Ingalldel, an elf swordsman and professor, appeared holding a sword like a cane. The students who had been standing upright up until just now corrected their posture and bowed politely.
Professor Ingalldel continued speaking in a soft voice uncharacteristic of a swordsman.
“When I woke up, I saw the released summons wandering around the school. “I thought it was such an absurd place.”
“……”
All students nodded. It was a statement that everyone could agree on, no matter what tower it was.
“But the students have to continue to stay here… I’ve been thinking about it too. “What method will help?”
“?”
Lee Han suddenly became anxious.
When professors think about their students, there are very few cases where good results come out.
“So, I captured one of the released summons. “Let’s practice against each other together.”
“……”
Lee Han began to seriously worry that Professor Ingaldel was corrupting the school.
