Episode 705
As the Basilisk struggled as if it would never fall, Direth noticed and said.
“How about letting me stay a little longer?”
“yes?”
“Why, that. Even animals like to be near their mothers when they are babies, right?”
“senior. “I’m not a basilisk.”
As Lee Han looked at him in bewilderment, Direth’s face turned red.
Because I spoke hastily, nonsense came out.
“It’s a metaphor, it’s a metaphor!”
“But isn’t the Basilisk a violent and arrogant monster? “I also learned that from Professor Lightning Step.”
Now the tail outside the sleeve was wagging pathetically. Direth unknowingly defended the baby basilisk.
“Of course, there are habits that monsters share. But each person has different characteristics, right? That basilisk may be timid and affectionate…”
“hmm.”
Lee Han listened to Direth’s words and became lost in thought.
“But even if that were the case, wouldn’t we have to live separately when we grow bigger?”
“…That’s right.”
-?!
Delet could not refute.
No matter how timid and affectionate you may be, you will not be able to continue to hang on as you physically grow larger.
If that happens, my junior’s arm might fall off…
Lee Han said as he slowly removed the basilisk that was trying to tie his arms like a strong rope.
“You don’t have to worry. senior. “It’s like this now, but when he grows up, he’ll feel stuffy in his sleeves and move around outside.”
“hmm. “It’s a monster that shouldn’t be roaming around outside, but let’s just say it is.”
Direth pretended not to notice the baby basilisk’s mournful tail-wagging request and changed the topic.
‘sorry. I’ve done enough.’
“Junior. “I have one last thing to say.”
“I will listen.”
“If you go back and rest after work today, people will probably come out from the Einrogard Club starting tomorrow.”
“aha.”
Lee Han listened intently.
I’ve heard a lot about Einrogard’s club for a long time.
People cannot live alone, and wizards cannot explore the truth alone.
… was the general idea of a social club, but Einrogard’s club had a slightly different feel.
‘I feel like I’m a little crazy about gold coins.’
According to a duel club senior I met during vacation, the main source of income for the Einrogard Duel Club was proxy duels.
He intervenes in a fight among Einrogard students, fights them, and receives gold coins.
And according to what the senior said, surprisingly, this duel club was not unusual.
All decent clubs in Einrogard have a proper source of income as an essential condition.
At this point, it was hard to tell whether it was a social club or the Einrogard Student Guild.
“When it comes to clubs, there are so many numbers and there are so many things I don’t know, but keep one thing in mind, junior.”
“yes.”
“Pretend to be as stupid and incompetent as possible.”
“…???”
morning.
I was a little tired as I had been transporting smuggled goods with my friends from evening until midnight.
Lee Han yawned and came down to the second-year common room. Familiar friends were waiting with faces full of anticipation.
Lee Han saw that and was puzzled.
“Did I say I would prepare breakfast for you today?”
“…Oh, no. Wardanaz. “We’re not necessarily happy about a big breakfast!”
“that’s right. “We are not pigs who only want food!”
“Yes. Right.”
Lee Han looked skeptical at his friends’ unconvincing words and opened the chest of contraband.
Even though I couldn’t prepare a meal because I was busy, I brought out something simple to eat since I couldn’t avoid eating anything.
When cut bread, cheese, oil for dipping, salted ham, and several cans were brought out, the Blue Dragon Tower students rushed in with faces full of happiness.
‘for a moment. ‘Aren’t they curious about how I get all this food?’
Lee Han thought to himself.
I think it’s normal to be surprised and say, ‘How can I have this on my first day?’…
While eating a light meal, Lee Han asked his friends.
“Then why were you looking forward to it in the break room this morning?”
“That’s right, you can join the Einroguard Club starting today!”
“ah. “That was it.”
Lee Han hoped that a festival would be held or a lecture would be canceled, but sadly, that was not the case.
“The club… I don’t think it’s that fun or exciting.”
Although he didn’t fully understand Direth’s words yet, Lee Han had long since abandoned any romanticism or fantasy about the Einrogard Club.
In particular, it didn’t seem to be the fun and warm social club that my friends thought it would be.
However, when his friends heard Lee Han’s words, they looked at him with eyes that asked, ‘How can you say such cold and cruel words?’
“What… this is nonsense, Wodanaz. “Social clubs are places that all nobles like, right?”
“I wasn’t really interested. “It seems like no one in our family really joined any social clubs…”

“The Wardanaz family is an exception!”
“Why is this an exception?”
The Blue Dragon Tower friend, who was speechless, quickly changed the topic.
“The club is a really nice place. Wardanaz. Of course, clubs that are new and visited by vulgar hangers-on are noisy and have a tavern-like atmosphere. But only polite nobles visit traditional clubs, and there is such a thing as the joy of conversation.”
“I also play wizard cards.”
Gainando, who came down late, nodded and said.
“okay. I also play wizard cards. But I like chess better.”
“Don’t be crazy. Why is chess better than wizard cards? “Is there fun in chess collecting?”
“Chess is the true… ah. Be quiet, Kainando! The story was leaked because of you! Anyway, Lee Han. The club talks about what happened today and discusses the state of the empire…”
“Isn’t it similar to the break room?”
“It’s different! “It’s different!”
“Yes, yes.”
Since his friend seemed so desperate, Lee Han accepted it obediently.
As the other students woke up one by one and came down, Guyando, who was soaking bread in olive oil next to him and mumbling, asked.
“Which club are you going to join?”
“hmm. “A club where work is easy and you earn a lot of gold coins.”
‘I asked for no reason.’
Gainando grumbled inwardly at his friend’s answer, which was not romantic at all, and finished eating the bread.
As the morning sun fully rose and all the students gathered in the second-grade common room, a paper bird flew into the window.
Then it burned and turned into sound.
2nd grade students go to the common lounge!
“!”
“let’s go!”
The students were all excited and wanted to move.
It’s not a grade lounge, but a public lounge where you can meet all seniors.
What kind of place is it?
“hey. Everyone, get the magic and go.”
“Drink this potion and go.”
“Is there anyone who would be brave enough to take the lead? For your friends?”
“……”
But there were also people who kept their cool. It was Lee Han and his friends.
Lee Han and his friends grabbed the backs of the students who were trying to run away and cast a spell to make them move into battle formation.
This was because you could be ambushed as soon as you entered the public lounge.
“Ah, no matter what, they are seniors…”
“You still say things like that after being treated like that during smuggling? When you enter the public lounge, do not open any doors. Don’t go into the room alone. “If a senior talks to you, let’s be careful.”
The second-year students at Blue Dragon Tower moved into a much calmer and more gloomy atmosphere than before.
Squeak-
Perse, who was waiting in the common room, was surprised to see the second-year students entering in an orderly manner.
“You guys are so amazing. In our time, we were all excited and fighting to get there first… Yeah. This is the dignity of nobility. “I hope to be able to watch and learn from you starting next school year.”
The second-year students were embarrassed by Perse’s praise and averted their gaze. Some students lowered their wands and put the potion back into their arms.
Ihan and Yoner whispered in the background.
“I don’t think there are any traps?”
“huh.”
The public lounge was large and deserted. It was the exact opposite of how warm and comfortable the grade lounge was in its own way.
While the grade lounge was a comfortable living room with a fireplace, the public lounge had the feel of a large campground vacant lot.
“Seniors. “Why is this place so empty?”
“hmm? ah. That’s because it’s a public lounge. “If you leave things here, other grades will take them.”
‘Didn’t you just talk about noble dignity?’
It seemed that around the 3rd or 4th year of Blue Dragon Tower, people no longer hesitated to steal, regardless of their nobility.
“Usually, when you take a break, you rest in your grade’s lounge, but you don’t come to the common room like this to rest. “This is now a place where the Blue Dragon Tower unit uses to do business or talk.”
Perse pointed to a huge wooden sign installed in the vacant lot. It was a sign posted on a bulletin board.
-Looking for a wizard to go with me to carry out this request from the Marka Guild. 3rd grade or higher, 3 or more self-defense spells, and top 30 grades.
-There was a White Tiger Tower attack recently, so be careful.
ㄴI recommend changing the emblem on the tower and wearing a secret mark so that we can recognize each other.
ㄴThe White Tiger Tower guys also walked around with our tower emblem on and asked if it was the same tower…
-I am looking for the grimoire .
ㄴYou can request it from the library club, right?
ㄴThose kids cost too much.
ㄴI know. I’m a member of the library club.
Lee Han read with interest the papers his seniors had pasted together.
Aside from the bulletin board, I could see a few tents or tents where seniors stayed last year. and…
“What is that?”
“I already tried to explain. “Today we will move there.”
“!”
A huge door installed on one side of the public lounge.
Upon hearing the story of moving through that door, the second-year students at Blue Dragon Tower showed strong caution.
As Wardanaz had warned, one could never let one’s guard down in Einrogard.
Even if you are a senior!
“Where are you?”
“Follow me.”
Instead of answering, Perse opened the door and moved beyond it. It made me guess that the dimension shimmering beyond was a door with space magic.
Flash!
After passing through the door of the public lounge and arriving on the 7th floor of Einrogard, Perse waited for his juniors to come out.
The 7th floor of Einrogard was the largest and most complex floor in the Einrogard main building, which had infinite space.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is more like a village or a city than a single floor.
As such, students in their second year or higher spent a lot of time on the 7th floor.
While first-year students spend time in the garden or courtyard outside the main building, seniors spend time in the space on the 7th floor.
Since the common lounges in each tower all have space transition doors that lead to the 7th floor, it was inevitable that they would be convenient.
“Why aren’t the Blue Dragon Tower students coming?”
The students from the Einrogard Club, who were waiting for an explanation, asked Perse.
“Wait a little bit.”
“Isn’t this taking too long? “Why don’t you go and see it?”
“He’s not some kind of child, so I need to take care of everything…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the door connected to the common lounge opened and second-year juniors started rushing out.
With all kinds of magic loaded.
“……”
“……”
The club students who were waiting were startled by the bloody force.
“W-what is it?”
“What’s going on? “Why are you doing this?”
Lee Han, who sensed the atmosphere, quickly looked around.
“…I just saw the Headmaster’s lackey in the common room. “I ran away quickly, just in case.”
