Episode 756
For a while, no one from the Watchmen’s Club spoke.
Iactus, who belatedly recovered from the shock, wrote shakily.
Iactus:…He’s not really the principal, right??
* * *
While the members of the Watchmen Club were whispering about the identity of the new member, Lee Han closed the book, came out of the tower, and moved.
I used to be cautious about meeting new students, but now I am much more cautious.
‘From now on, I’ll have to move only near the main building as much as possible.’
At first, when the seniors said, ‘As you go up in grade, you become more active only within the main building,’ Lee Han expressed doubts.
Of course, the inside of Einrogard’s main building was a strange, almost infinite building that was larger than Einrogard’s territory…
Still, aren’t there many things that can only be obtained in the territory outside the main building?
No matter how much time you have and how difficult life is for you as a senior student, you never go out of the main building?
But now I understand.
‘How can I go far when people like the crazy clone of the skeleton principal come by regularly?’
You have no choice but to be careful because if you are careful, you could be kidnapped by a strange archmage.
…Of course, the other students’ reasons were very different from Lee Han’s…
“Are you there?”
Lee Han opened the door to Professor Verdus’ workshop and magic tower, Seonggak-gwan, and went inside.
As I went up to the second floor, I saw three seniors from the Buyeo School of Magic located in a disorderly manner in the large workshop area. The seniors were putting the finishing touches on the artifact with their faces so close to the workbench that they were almost pressing their noses into it.
“Seniors. “Do you know where Senior Yukveltyre is?”
“……”
“Seniors?”
When his seniors did not respond, Lee Han thought he would have to use the method he used with Professor Verdus again.
“Seniors!!!”
“Are you surprised?! what?!”
Buyeo magic students who were concentrating on their own magic jumped up in surprise at their junior’s call.
“hello!”
“Why are you calling so loudly? “Sing quietly!”
“sorry. We will refer to it from now on. Do you know where Senior Yukbeltire’s workshop is?”
“uh. I don’t know.”
“…?”
Lee Han was slightly embarrassed.
There was no way that a magician from the school of enchantment magic, such as Yukbeltire, would not have an attack or defense in Seongakwan.
“Don’t you have a workshop here in Seonggak-gwan?”
“I’m sure you’ll be there?”
“But don’t you know where you are?”
“huh.”
Lee Han smiled and asked.
“Do you know where Professor Verdus’ workshop is?”
“You don’t know? “What do you know?”
“indeed. thank you.”
After hearing the answer, Lee Han thought he would just go around and find it himself.
Buyeo Magic School students may not even know each other’s names.
“Senior Yukveltire?”
“uh.”
“You’re not Senior Yukbeltire, are you?”
“uh.”
“…Have a good day.”
“uh.”
After overcoming the obstruction of uncooperative Buyeo Magic School students, Lee Han was finally able to find Yukveltire’s workshop.
The princess was conducting research using the entire third basement floor.
“Is your senior there?”
“Please come in.”
Yukveltire placed his aquamarine glasses on the table and gestured.
And then he said it as if he knew it would happen.
“okay. “You must have become interested in my research.”
“……”
Lee Han was dumbfounded by his endless confidence.
“Seniors. “I was kidnapped by the self-immolation until yesterday.”
“Hmm.”
Yukveltire did not understand what Lee Han meant and was deep in thought.
Then he clapped his hands lightly as if he understood.
“While learning magic under the principal’s alter ego, inspiration struck me. That inspiration is directly related to my research. Right?”
“…Actually, I came to ask you not to harass Senior Direth.”
Lee Han took out the basket of food he had brought as a bribe.
Since she is Aden Arth’s older sister and is also related to Gainando, she was hoping that a food bribe would work.
Yukveltire immediately responded as if it was nonsense.
“I think I’m mistaken, but it’s always Delet that bothers me. I have never bullied Delet. “I’ve always respected you.”

“……”
Lee Han recited three times in his mind, ‘The opponent is a senior, and this is the senior’s attack and defense, so if you attack hastily, you may be hit back.’ Then he opened his mouth.
“I actually don’t want to debate the definition of bullying. Seniors.”
“Let’s listen. If you listen, you will understand. When we entered, Direth had decided on the school of black magic as his specialty. I advised Delet. There is no future for you in that school. Come to the Grant Magic School. Then Delet cursed my face. ruler. “Who do you think bullied whom?”
“It seems like you have been harassing Direth.”
“under!”
Yukveltire sighed coldly, as if feeling sorry.
I never would have thought that a junior who recognized my abilities would say something so foolish.
“Seniors. Instead of helping to rescue me, didn’t you ask for senior Direth’s help? But honestly, how effective was your help?”
“That’s a sharp point. that’s right. “The output was too low.”
Yukveltire readily admitted.
I had prepared a way to find and destroy the magic’s weak points, but I did not have the means.
“I will help you no matter how much I lack, so senior Direth, please stop inviting me to this research.”
“Sure.”
Yukveltire surprisingly accepted it obediently.
Lee Han asked in surprise.
“Are you sure?”
“okay.”
“Are you sure you don’t need Direth’s help from now on?
“Dirette doesn’t help with research anyway?”
“…?”
For a moment, Lee Han wondered if he had heard wrong.
You’re not helping?
“for a moment. “Didn’t Senior Direth say that he would help with research instead of helping with the rescue?”
“It did. But as you pointed out, the help wasn’t very effective. Delet pointed out that and persuaded me. I accepted it. for a moment. “I could use this as evidence of Direth bullying me.”
Yukveltire questioned in a cold voice.
No matter how much she thought about it, it was true that Delet was harassing her.
What kind of self-indulgence is this?
“So even if I didn’t help, Direth wouldn’t have participated in this research?”
“well. “Dirette may have reflected and come to help.”
“…Seniors. “Please keep my help with research a secret from Direth.”
“?”
Yukveltyre slightly tilted his head as he did not understand why his junior was saying such a thing.
* * *
The research was the same as what I saw during the previous winter vacation.
Artificial dimensional artifact.
It was a grandiose project to create a new, artificially isolated dimension, as the wizard intended.
“I learned something from my last failure.”
“Let’s not trust other wizards?”
“That’s a good lesson too. “Please tell this to Delet.”
Trusting other wizards was one of the faults, but Yukveltire also felt the need to improve the fundamental structure of the artifact.
Now, this artificial dimensional artifact had a structure that continuously accelerated magic power by connecting dozens or hundreds of magic circles.
The magic power accelerated in the first magic circle is accelerated once more in the second magic circle, and again in the third magic circle…
Even if it was very small, creating an artificial dimension required a lot of power, so it was an inevitable choice.
However, this overly detailed and complex structure resulted in irreversible results even if one mistake in the magic circle.
There was no problem when Yukbeltyre himself supervised everything from start to finish, but from the moment external wizards participated, it became a time bomb that could explode at any moment.
Last time too, due to a very minor mistake, it degenerated into an oval shape and was connected to an indeterminate dimension.
“I’m thinking about two main things. One is to simplify part of the structure. The other is a safety device that detects dimensions in advance.”
By reducing and combining the number of magic circles, the probability of mistakes occurring is reduced, and at the same time, an artifact that detects and detects in advance is added in case it is connected to an uncertain dimension.
It was a reasonable improvement method that even Lee Han, who had no interest in this research, could understand.
“indeed. “Is my role to supplement it by infusing magic power when combining magic circles?”
“It’s one of the roles.”
Yukveltire was satisfied with his junior’s answer.
I was very satisfied with the way he understood right away, unlike other juniors who had to say it five or ten times.
In the process of combining some of the connected magic circles and improving them into a single magic circle, there would inevitably be magic damage, so a way to make up for it was needed.
It was originally quite complicated, but it was a problem that could be easily solved if there was one wizard who could infuse magic.
“Then sit down and wait.”
“yes.”
Lee Han sat and waited while reading “Escape from Einrogard.”
Yukveltyre went through and sorted through hundreds of sheets of paper, drawing new magic circles over and over again.
‘hmm.’
After about an hour, Lee Han wondered if he could ask if it was still far.
However, since the senior seemed to be very focused, he took out a toy from his pocket and played with the basilisk.
The baby basilisk hissed and was very happy.
‘By the way, these bastards of the Watchman Club. ‘You can’t even distinguish between fake news.’
Lee Han promised himself that he would discuss the beaver, penguin, and fox the next time he met them.
The ominous animal didn’t become a household name for nothing. What if they come with rumors that haven’t been properly confirmed?
Another hour or so passed.
Yukveltire raised his head with the most tired face in the world. The voice was half hoarse.
“It’s done. Come here and infuse your magic.”
“yes.”
As instructed by Yukveltire, Lee Han approached the artifact and infused it with magic. With a flash of light, a part of the artifact was newly modified.
A huge amount of magical power flowed out, but Lee Han had no significant effect.
“Are we done?”
“Now I have to do the next thing.”
Yukveltyre sat down again in front of a table piled with hundreds of sheets of paper and began drawing a new magic circle.
Lee Han took a look at the artificial dimensional artifact and just calculated Yukveltyre’s work speed.
‘So how do you improve all of this…?’
While I was calculating how many years it would take and whether I would be able to graduate and run away before then, I heard a thud in front of me. Lee Han raised his head in surprise.
Yukveltire had collapsed.
“Are you okay?!”
“You consumed too few nutrients…”
Lee Han was dumbfounded at the sight of him saying coolly that he was starving.
Both Aden Arth and Gainan eat well, but what is the point of being in the 5th grade?
“I just brought snacks, so please eat some. here. “We have sandwiches.”
“Is there cheese in it?”
Lee Han was delighted with his gluttonous ability to understand ingredients like a ghost, thinking that he was truly worthy of royalty.
“yes.”
“I’m a bit picky about cheese.”
“…Well, I see. “Then, let’s have a sandwich with ham and eggs.”
“I also have some ham…”
Yukveltire took out all the ingredients from the sandwich one by one and munched on a piece of bread with satisfaction.
“Your cooking skills are good. “I guess he’s on par with the imperial chef.”
“……”
After filling his meal with a piece of bread and a sip of cocoa, Yukbeltire immediately signaled that he was full.
While Lee Han was puzzled, the door to the workshop opened and Delet came in.
“hey. I’ll help you. Even though I was incompetent, I tried…”
“……”
Lee Han, who made eye contact with Direth, froze.
Lee Han spoke urgently.
“…I came here to take a look by chance!”
“You came to help with research, right?”
Lee Han pushed the senior who was in his way aside. Yukveltire fell down the sofa with a crash.
