Episode 692
As a senior, I should be happy that an outstanding junior has made it to the top, but even taking that into account, the junior in front of me is too…
…It didn’t feel like freshman year.
‘What kind of guy is this?’
“What family did you say you were from?”
“Don’t forget. “If you want to eat something, please give me advice or information about smuggling.”
Instead of answering, Lee Han slowly changed the topic.
He didn’t even notice and was dragged away.
“Are you telling me to betray my colleagues? “Where is this Marcand family?”
“Didn’t you just try to run away in the name of your family?”
“Shh. Priest Siana. Still, you are a senior.”
I could hear other juniors whispering behind me, but I didn’t waver.
If you lose your composure because you are embarrassed by such whispers, you are not qualified to be a student at Einrogard.
“Tell me. Do you think this Earl of the Marcan family would betray his comrades!”
“…Are you doing this to raise the conditions?”
Lee Han asked just in case.
No matter how I looked at it, it seemed like he was sending a subtle message, saying, ‘I will betray you if there are good conditions.’
“What are you looking at me for? Worst of all, my colleagues will know about my betrayal? “Maybe there’s a way to stop that!”
“After kidnapping you, I checked everything around me. No one was chasing me separately. When you are released later, tell them that you were kidnapped by the principal’s Death Knights. The principal is always a good excuse. “Her colleagues would never think that she was kidnapped by juniors.”
“Wow, that’s a really good method!”
Ulde was impressed without even realizing it.
The first-year junior in front of me had a charisma that made me forget what I had just experienced.
As expected, he wasn’t leading the group of kidnappers here for nothing.
‘He might become big!’
“……”
“……”
Erde, who belatedly noticed the gaze of his juniors, cleared his throat.
“I’m not saying I’m betraying you. “I was just amazed.”
“yes…”
“Lee Han. Let’s raise the conditions quickly. “I think they’ll accept it if I raise the conditions.”
“Uh-huh! “What an insult!”
Ulde just pretended to be angry and looked at Lee Han.
What I meant was that if you’re going to make an offer, make it quickly.
Joner thought to himself.
‘Are all seniors like that…?’
No matter how much I adapted to Einroguard, I never thought it would be that bad.
Lee Han calmly looked at his senior.
He could have offered gold coins or various artifacts, but Lee Han had no intention of wasting the wealth he had worked hard to accumulate during his vacation.
“Seniors. “I have only one condition to propose.”
“what?”
“If you help us, we will also smuggle your items with you.”
“…Ha ha ha ha ha!”
Erde, who had been listening quietly, burst into laughter.
Ulde, who was out of breath from laughing so hard, looked at Lee Han as if he couldn’t believe it.
“Are you serious? “You were really planning on smuggling yourselves?”
“Otherwise, what reason would there be to lock you up like this?”
“They were crazier than I thought.”
Ulde looked at the ceiling as if lamenting.
I didn’t want to say this, but these days, first graders are really different from when I was a first grader.
So reckless and fearless!
“good. As a member of the same Blue Dragon Tower, and as a memorial to meeting a junior like you, I will give you advice without compensation. Give up smuggling among yourselves. Find another trustworthy senior and hold their hand. “I don’t know if that’s possible.”
“I think I can do it.”
Lee Han said calmly.
It wasn’t bragging or bragging, it was a serious feeling of possibility.
However, Ulde, who had no idea what Lee Han had done during his freshman year, shook his head and answered negatively.
“I’ll tell you what will happen. A new semester begins and we will gather at the main gate. If you gather at the main gate, there will be a lecture from the principal. Then the search will begin, what do you think will happen?”
“Aren’t you just searching?”
Erde clicked his tongue in response to Gaynando’s question.
“No. As soon as they see the worn-out seniors, they look for the most formidable students. Someone has to make a sacrifice to reduce surveillance and pressure. First graders smuggling? If it were me, I would spot them right away and get their attention. “I think everyone there thinks so.”
Students attempting smuggling were willing to risk their lives just to create a moment of turmoil and chaos.
There was no way those people would be considerate just because they were first-year juniors. If it shows weakness, it will bite more persistently.
Ulde crossed his arms and looked at Lee Han.
No matter how bold you are, you can’t help but be discouraged when you hear this…
“Thank you for the advice, senior. “If you change your mind, please tell me.”
“…?!!”
Ulde was astonished.
What kind of heart does that guy have of steel?
How can you be so calm even after hearing this…

“for a moment!”
As Lee Han and his juniors tried to leave the annex, Ulde urgently shouted.
But when I called him, I couldn’t think of anything to say.
Ulde shouted as if he was bragging.
As it was, I didn’t have much respect for my juniors.
“It’s not for me to say anything, but is it okay for you to lock me up here like this? “You never know if he might run away at any time?”
“ah. So, I’m going to place some summons.”
“You can’t keep surveillance with summoned animals. “Magic power…”
Lee Han just shrugged his shoulders and went out with his friends.
Sharkan, a leopard-shaped summon, yawned and crouched down in front of Ulde.
As Ulde stared at Sharkan, Lee Han stuck his head out from outside the door and said.
“Seniors. “If you even attack Sharkan, I will attach a basilisk to you.”
“I understand, I understand!”
Even if I didn’t know anything else, I could tell that the junior wasn’t good at telling jokes.
What kind of lame joke is the basilisk?
* * *
‘What are you doing?’
For the next few days, Ulde sat in the upstairs private room of the outbuilding and watched the front yard, garden, and warehouse.
While staying here, there were a few things I realized.
First of all, it seemed like this group of first-year kidnappers had worked together more than once. My hands and feet didn’t usually fit together well.
Dividing people into different roles to go out and come back to the mansion was an impossible move without trust in each other.
They must be different top juniors, so how can they be so consistent?
Go out and come back, go out again and come back…
Every time that happened, the leader of the group would bring something and tell his friends, ‘I figured out the trick.’
I couldn’t believe that he had discovered the methods of other seniors preparing for smuggling, and I was really curious about what he was talking about.
Another fact was that there was a change in the wagons in the warehouse.
The carriage decorations disappeared, the space inside was expanded, and reinforcement was added to the floor and embankment.
It looked as if it was being used as a wagon.
Instead of stopping there, first-year students painted patterns on the carriage. It was a pattern that I had seen many times before.
‘Where did you see that… huh?’
When I thought about it, it seemed like there was one among the tops in Grandeur City that had that pattern.
‘…Why are you making the upper wagon?’
I thought about it for a while, but no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t come up with an answer.
Why on earth are they making upper carts?
“hey.”
In the end, Ulde couldn’t stand it anymore and called his junior.
“Did you call me?”
“…What are you doing now?”
“If you want to know, please cooperate.”
“…done! it’s okay!”
Ulde turned around angrily.
However, Lee Han was not easy enough to be swayed by this method.
When the junior didn’t show any reaction, Ulde finally opened his mouth first, feeling disappointed.
“What exactly do you want from me? Let me tell you first, smuggling is not that easy. “Just because I help you doesn’t mean things will work out right away.”
“I know. And I prepared the smuggling method, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
“…???”
What on earth and how?
“By what method?!”
“First, what I want to know is how other seniors try to smuggle.”
“hmm.”
Ulde nodded as if he had expected it.
He had guessed it to some extent since he was told to betray his comrades.
When attempting smuggling, it was more important than expected to know the methods of other students in advance.
You could copy the method, or you could benefit from the method, and if not both, you could at least prepare in advance. This was because smuggling was greatly affected by accidents caused by other people.
“First, there will be the Dhumcha gang. “Those guys…”
“ah. Those people know. “You will probably use <lower box transformation>.”
“…How did you know that?!”
“Are there any others?”
Lee Han said in a way that told him not to keep asking about things that weren’t very important.
It was absurd to say the least.
‘How did you find out…?’
“There is Ivanna’s gang…”
“They know it too. They were trying to transfer it using body strengthening magic and race conversion magic together, but honestly, it seemed a bit risky. “I don’t think it will be easy to turn into a large species and survive the inspection.”
“hey! “You know everything, why are you asking?!”
I cried out in shock.
I had no idea what this first-year student was thinking.
“What are you talking about? senior. “I’m asking because there are a lot of things I don’t know.”
“Is there anyone who knows as much as you…! “Tell me how you found out!”
Ulde crossed his arms and gave a stern look, as if he wouldn’t go any further unless I told him.
Lee Han responded with a look on his face that said, ‘Why does this senior keep asking the obvious?’
“I contacted my seniors and asked them.”
“…What are you talking about? “There’s no way I could just tell you.”
“I dug it up after I said I wanted to smuggle it together.”
“……”
He dropped the glass he was holding.
So now, you approached each group, deceived all the senior members of the group, and then discovered all the methods they were preparing?
‘Is that… possible?!’
“Anyway, senior. “Are there any more?”
“My gang… there are one or two other teams, but I don’t know much about what the seniors are preparing. “Nothing good comes from being known.”
“All right.”
Lee Han nodded, picked up his quill, and started organizing.
Even if you only understand some of it, not everything, it will be of great help on the day.
“So… how do you plan on smuggling? “Let’s hear it.”
“I was already going to tell you. “Among us, you are the only one with experience in inspections, so I think we will have to do it together.”
Ulde was surprised to realize that he had been expecting something without realizing it.
Are you saying that you are just looking forward to the clumsy smuggling plan of your first-year juniors?!
‘Oh, no. Nonsense.’
However, the junior in front of me had an aura that gave persuasiveness to the absurd situation.
Just in case…?!
“We will take the top wagon and go into the underground passage, leave the contraband behind, and escape.”
“…what…what…?”
Ulde was taken aback because he didn’t know where to start with a plan he had never guessed.
“What are you talking about? Do you know where the underground passage is? Even if you find it, there will be someone guarding it, and it won’t be possible for just any merchant to enter…”
“We have figured out where the underground passage is located. There will be people guarding it, but the warehouse manager will be on top, so it will be relatively easy. The top that delivers materials is fixed. “The pattern painted on the carriage now is the pattern on the top.”
“……”
Ulde closed his eyes and started muttering.
Lee Han asked, puzzled.
“What are you doing?”
“I… must have been affected by illusion magic. This… is a ridiculous dream. “You need to wake up.”
“It’s reality.”
