Episode 691
The Death Knight looked at Lee Han and his friends and sighed.
-All right. Let’s pretend I didn’t see it.
“Uh, really?”
Gainando was slightly embarrassed.
I really didn’t know that you would pretend that you didn’t see it.
-It’s a mistake to be caught by juniors after becoming a senior.
“……”
“……”
The friends were speechless at the cold-hearted words of the Death Knight.
That’s fortunate…!
-Well, I think the conversation is over now, so let’s get started. Are you ready?
Eandurde nodded. The Death Knight said while looking at the students.
-How about saying goodbye one last time? It will be hard to see your face for about a year.
“joy. Lee Han will probably just ignore that and walk around. I already have the obstruction potion… kek.”
Lee Han responded after hitting Guyando’s solar plexus.
“thank you. “I will say goodbye.”
The students gathered looked at Eandurde.
The students’ eyes contained all the emotions that can be expressed to students who have just entered school, including sympathy, pity, pity, regret, and pity.
“Eandurde. “I don’t know what to say.”
“I’m fine!”
Eandurde spoke powerfully in response to Yoner’s words.
“Aren’t you excited because you don’t have to study anymore?”
“…Oh, no…”
Eandurde, whose true feelings were revealed, averted his gaze.
In the mansion, after Lee, the person who studied most rigorously was Yoner.
“Hmm. Eandurde… That’s… Ugh. I do not know what to say! Just remember what I told you about: edible grass and easy-to-make traps. “If you have that, you can get some useful stuff.”
“You better practice picking locks more. “It’s still not enough in Einrogard.”
“really. You need to memorize more potion recipes. “It’s a potion that will be used often.”
“I know you have strength and special racial abilities, but don’t rely too much on them. “You need skills to survive in Einrogard.”
Eandurde, who had been listening intently to the advice of his seniors, tilted his head.
“Isn’t this a magic school?”
Just listening to what my seniors were saying made me feel like I was going to the worst underground arena.
“…Well, you’ll find out when you go in!”
“that’s right. Don’t be too scared. Einrogard is also a place where people live… no… that may not be the case, but you’ll get used to it over time. …maybe. Cainan Island. You too, say something. “You didn’t do it.”
“huh?”
Gainando stood in silence, but when his friends urged him on, he quickly thought about it.
“Uh… uh…”
“hurry!”
“It’s easier to find a friend like Lee-Han and follow him around!”
“……”
“…I ordered it for no reason.”
“You guys should do it!!”
Gainando jumped up and down, but his friends ignored him and called the Death Knight.
-Are you done?
“yes. “I think you can leave.”
Ihan whispered one last time to Eandurde before he left.
“If you think you are running low on food, leave a mark in front of the Blue Dragon Dormitory tower. “I will take care of you secretly.”
But Eandurde shook his head resolutely.
“It’s okay.”
“…guy…!”
“I’m going to steal things from other students!”
“…guy…”
Lee Han slightly regretted that he should have provided more character education.
* * *
Ulde of the Marcand family was a student at Einrogard Blue Dragon Tower, rising from second to third year.
His grades were in the middle of the tower, his family was famous for its flower industry in the southern part of the empire, and he was very interested in fantasy magic, cold elements, and numerology.
What’s unusual is that he was caught by his juniors while looking for juniors to use for Einrogard’s new semester smuggling operation.
‘Tsk. It’s a shame.’
The junior I was talking to went into a villa belonging to a family other than his own, so he went in out of curiosity and was surprised by juniors who rushed out.
No matter how junior you were, it was difficult to gain an advantage over many people. Plus, I was attacked by surprise…
Unless you were properly trained in magic combat, it was nearly impossible to quickly cast magic in a surprise attack.
“Seniors. “You decided to remain quiet.”
“If it were you, would you be quiet? How did you know about smuggling? Who told you? White Tiger Tower or Black Turtle Tower?”
Ulde thought that someone in the same grade must have told the truth to the juniors.
Otherwise, there would be no way for the juniors to know this well about the smuggling operation.
Perhaps someone had set up a sabotage to keep Ulde, a member of the Blue Dragon Tower, in check.
“I told you. We figured it out ourselves. “Every senior we met tried to use us as bait.”

“It’s a misunderstanding. misunderstanding! “I never meant to use you as bait.”
Ulde told lies without even putting saliva on her lips.
Of course, it didn’t work for juniors. The juniors looked at their seniors with somber eyes.
“Then did you really think of us and let us participate in the smuggling operation?”
“then! I did it because I felt sorry for you guys. Please release me now. If you participate in our operation, you will be able to receive enough food to last the year, right? Think about it. Freshly baked multigrain bread and buttermilk eaten inside Einrogard. A maple sap dessert mixed with a little honey. “A meatloaf-like feast with more than 1/3 of the meat!”
“…I don’t really like it…”
“?!”
Ulde made a confident proposal, but unfortunately, there were limits to his imagination.
The students’ reaction to the simple dinner menu compared to Lee Han’s meal was not as enthusiastic.
“Uh, why? If you were freshmen, you must have been thinking about those foods throughout your first year, right?”
“We ate well.”
“Do not lie! What do you eat well? “It must have been made with leather boots or boiled in a pot!”
“……”
The students were thrilled to see their seniors’ first-year diet plan, which was worse than expected.
And I reflected again.
‘From now on, I shouldn’t complain about what I want to eat…’
‘I was wondering if it was true that we really ate a lot!’
‘When school starts, we should ask them to eat chocolate cake.’
When all four top students fell silent out of apology and gratitude toward Lee Han, Ulde misunderstood their reaction and opened his mouth.
“Maybe you don’t know how great this is because you’ve never experienced it! But it is really possible! “If you succeed in smuggling at the beginning of the school year, you can live like a rich person all semester!”
Sigh-
Lee Han, who returned after seeing off the Death Knight, opened the door and came inside.
Then he held up the potion he had taken from Ulde and asked.
“By the way, senior. “You told me to drink this when the interrogation started.”
“It’s a potion that helps with smuggling.”
“Isn’t this a mixture of the Berserker Potion and the Blade Bear Transformation Potion? senior. “If you eat this, you will turn into a sharp bear and run wild like crazy.”
“…Uh, what kind of person betrayed!?”
When his evil intention to transform his junior into a monster and make him go on a rampage was discovered, Ulde was visibly embarrassed.
The juniors glared at their seniors with disdainful eyes.
“…someone just had to get their attention.”
“I guess so.”
Realizing that he was cornered, Erde sighed and asked Lee Han for a favor.
“after. okay. “Please untie my wrists just for a moment.”
“Senior, you just tried to run away, didn’t you? It’s not possible.”
“This time is different. I promise you this in the name of my family. Even if you let me go, I won’t run away.”
As a noble, making a promise in the name of your family was a promise that was difficult to break easily.
Even when a territory war broke out and he was taken prisoner, if he made that promise, he would not have run away even if the opportunity arose.
When Ulde said that, the students’ mood calmed down a bit. I finally decided that my senior had stopped thinking about running away and would just stay calm.
“All right. “I will release you.”
“Haha, what a stupid guy! “Sense, into the maze!”
As soon as his wrists and ankles were freed, Ulde quickly pulled out a spare wand from his sleeve and cast the spell he had been preparing.
The cold air enveloped the enemies, disorienting them and bringing about illusions mixed with reality.
It was enough magic to overcome this difficulty.
“You learned a lesson today. A true Einroguard wizard values the family name, honor, and even a piece of bread…!”
puck!
Lee Han punched Ulde, who was trying to leave the annex, and then dragged him away and made him sit down.
And tied it again.
From the beginning, I had figured out that he was trying to cast magic by looking at the flow of magic around him.
I only accepted it once because I thought it would keep bothering me if I didn’t accept it.
Lee Han waved his wand to dispel the remaining illusionary magic and brought his friends back to their senses.
Then, belatedly, Erde reacted.
“Uh… uh… how?!”
“Seniors. “You just mentioned your family’s name.”
“……”
Even so, I felt a little embarrassed by this and avoided my gaze.
Then I muttered.
“joy. “It’s normal in Einrogard.”
“We don’t do that…”
“You too, you bastards! Just one more year and I’ll be selling my ancestor’s name! And you, what kind of tower are you! “You know more about noble honor than me?!”
“It’s the Blue Dragon Tower…”
Gainando, who was suddenly pointed out, answered with a shy expression.
Erde was surprised by the answer.
Come to think of it, this was a villa area for noble families. There was no way there were no students at the Blue Dragon Tower.
but…
“Wait, who is that guy?!”
Ulde asked, pointing to Dergyu.
No matter how you look at it, he wasn’t the Blue Dragon Tower guy.
“This is the White Tiger Tower.”
“I am Black Turtle Top.”
“Former Phoenix Tower.”
“…Wait, wait, wait.”
Ulde was even more embarrassed.
It was even more surprising than when I was surprised by my juniors.
I thought there was a lot of numbers and no unity…
“How are you guys together?”
“Because you’re friends?”
“The Blue Dragon Tower cannot be friends with the White Tiger Tower!”
Ulde shouted firmly.
Gainando almost agreed without realizing it.
“Of course, those kids are really unlucky…”
“Can’t you see Choi next to you?”
“Oh, no. “Except Dergyu!”
After thinking carefully, Erde looked at Lee Han and asked.
“Are you, by any chance, in charge of these guys? “If that’s the case…”
Sometimes, even within a school of magic, charismatic seniors were respected regardless of their rank.
I didn’t know that the White Tiger Tower student in front of me could be like that.
“Why is there a guy like this at White Tiger Tower…”
“That’s the Blue Dragon Tower.”
“?!!!!”
“Anyway, senior. I tried to respect your honor as much as possible, but you kept deceiving me. “I will take away both the wand and the reagent.”
Lee Han searched Ulde’s body and confiscated all remaining items.
“no! Think about it carefully. I am your senior! “Aren’t you going to see my face in the tower?”
Either way, Lee Han said what he had to say.
“We will release it when the semester starts. You will have to go to the front gate with me. Until then, you must remain in the annex. “If there is anything you would like to eat, please let me know.”
“Thick pancakes, premium salted butter, southern honey, and coffee with plenty of milk.”
“ah. “It’s not that I’m just giving it to you, it’s that I’m giving it to you if you give me advice or information about smuggling.”
“…Are you a first year student??”
Ulde looked at Lee Han with shaking eyes.
I never thought someone like this would enter the Blue Dragon Tower!
