Episode 776
After discovering his true feelings, Lee Han threw out a few names as if he were looking for a baby basilisk.
Starting with the quite grandiose <Jormungand>, <Ouroboros>, and <Caduceus>, to familiar names such as <The Pit>, <Gainando>, and <Syana>.
-Hmph. I think it’s all bad.
“hmm. “Can I just call you Basil until I think of a better name?”
Lee Han, who was becoming increasingly annoyed, spoke with the intention of deceiving the baby basilisk.
If you first call him Basil and then keep calling him Eoyeongbuyeong, the name will stick.
-Yes, I like it!
Although the baby basilisk was highly intelligent, it could not defeat the Einrogard student who was trained in scheming.
Basil excitedly waggled his tail, unaware of Lee Han’s evil intentions.
-When will we see that evil wizard again?
“?”
Lee Han was puzzled when the baby basilisk asked in an innocent manner.
‘Who the hell is this evil wizard talking about?’
I don’t think it would be enough to line it up from the main gate of Einrogard to the main gate of the estate…
“who?”
The baby basilisk answered as if it didn’t know why.
-The person who hits the owner.
“…So who?”
The baby basilisk was about to respond, but made a squeaking sound as if the snack it had just eaten got stuck in its throat.
Lee Han looked sad and poured milk into a small bowl.
“You should have eaten slowly.”
-yes? What if someone takes it away?
“……”
‘I guess I should cancel the idea that I was intelligent.’
Without even dreaming that its owner had lowered its intelligence rating by several notches, the baby basilisk eagerly licked the bowl of milk.
“So who were you talking about?”
Instead of answering, the baby basilisk continued licking the bowl. Even though it has been empty for a long time in Lee Han’s eyes.
Lee Han retrieved the bowl. Then the baby basilisk looked at Lee Han with eyes that felt like the sky had collapsed.
‘Of course I should have eaten faster!’
“You ate it all…”
-There were some left!
“There aren’t any left.”
Even though I explained it by showing the bottom of the bowl, the baby basilisk did not break its stubbornness.
Only after shedding tears and tapping her tail on the floor of the desk several times did the baby basilisk accept the fact that its bowl was empty.
-That scary wizard.
“…Basil. You should get into the habit of speaking specifically. Let’s start with tribe.”
-Vampire.
“ah. “It’s Professor Bagrek.”
Lee Han understood right away.
Well, it was natural for the baby basilisk to be afraid of Professor Boladi.
They tried to force him to grow up and fight against Lee Han…
“I won’t meet you today.”
-What about tomorrow?
“Would you like some more milk?”
Lee Han quietly avoided answering and refilled the bowl with milk. The baby basilisk cheered and slammed its head into the bowl again.
-Gulp, that other, scary wizard…
“Eat and talk.”
The baby basilisk clucked eagerly and emptied its bowl once again. The baby basilisk said, looking at the bowl with regret.
-When will the other scary wizards disappear?
“who? Wait, when will it disappear? “Is this the person you were with?”
Lee Han wondered if he was referring to Rosie’s professor.
-Snake beastman.
“…Uh, why Priest Siana? “I’m not a bad person.”
-Wh, what…! They tried to force the poison out of me!
The baby basilisk fluttered its body in protest.
Even thinking about it now, I was scared.
‘ah. ‘It was like that.’
Come to think of it, when the baby basilisk was born, Sianna approached her holding a large brass syringe with a sharpened tip.
It was an alchemist’s tool used to extract liquid by inserting it into plants or animals, but to the eyes of a newborn basilisk, it must have looked like a torture device.
And it could actually be used as a torture tool…
“I’m not a bad person. “I just said he was an alchemist.”
-Yeon, are all alchemists scary people?
“hmm. In some ways, it might be a little like that.”
Lee Han, who was teaching common sense to a baby basilisk, suddenly became curious.
When I thought about it, there were a few things I couldn’t ask because I couldn’t understand them until now.
“Basil. “Do you have any abilities that you can use now?”
-I can swing my tail!

The baby basilisk swung its tail. Lee Han applauded carelessly.
“Anything else than that?”
-Drinking milk?
“…What about evil eyes?”
The Basilisk’s famous bloodline ability was the magical eye imbued with the curse of petrification.
The deadly poison that drains life with its breath was famous, but its unique poison would be useful in many ways.
-I can write!
“!”
Lee Han looked at the baby basilisk with admiring eyes.
I thought he was just sucking magic power out of his sleeves all the time, but I never guessed that his abilities were blossoming in their own way.
“really?”
-I don’t want to use it. I don’t want to use it. It’s difficult to use…
“I’m not saying you have to use it. haha. I was just asking. “It must still be difficult because I haven’t grown up.”
In Lee Han’s opinion, it seemed unlikely that a baby basilisk that had not yet fully grown would be able to use the magical eye often.
It will definitely put a strain on your body.
“What about poison?”
-Wait. It… profit.
The baby basilisk grunted and produced just a little bit of poison.
Then he cried because he was hungry.
– Ugh. I’m so hungry…
“…Here, have some more snacks.”
Lee Han quickly put a drop of poison into a vial and held out a snack.
Lee Han asked as he watched the baby basilisk wrapping its body around the snack with excitement.
“Now that I think about it, is it better to feed it like this? “More than horsepower?”
-I like both!
‘hmm. I guess I should also add <I have a strong appetite>.’
When Lee Han later applied for a grant, he thought that if he were to write a document for Basilisk, he would also have to add <Has a strong appetite>.
“really. “When will you grow up?”
-Ubboob?
The baby basilisk, which had been devouring its food for a long time, blinked.
“There’s something about getting bigger.”
gulp!
-I think…
“You have to get bigger so you don’t have to hang on to my arm and can walk around separately.”
-…Well, I’m not getting big. I am a special basilisk that does not grow.
“……”

Shiles, who left the door after the lecture, felt a little sorry when he saw Lee Han from afar.
‘Um… I thought you were going to learn Basilisk language?’
When I think about it, there were so many things Wardanaz had done for me, but I refused without even learning the Basilisk language.
It was rude and ungrateful behavior.
Of course, Wyvern language was a very useful monster language, but Basilisk language might also be useful someday.
‘But what is it really useful for?’
Unless something like a basilisk carriage appears…
“Wardanaz!”
“uh. Shiles? wait for a sec.”
Lee Han hissed into his sleeve as his friend approached him.
Shiles looked at it and was puzzled.
“What did you just do?”
“I said you were not an alchemist. To the basilisk.”
“indeed. …Wait, you said that to the Basilisk!?”
Shiles couldn’t believe his ears.
Then Lee Han sighed and explained to Shiles.
“Shiles. “Basil here is not a dangerous monster…”
“Ah no, you weren’t surprised because there was a basilisk??”
Most of his friends already knew that Lee Han was raising basilisks.
At first, my friends were like, ‘Don’t talk bullshit’ and ‘Do you think everyone will believe me because they put wardanaz on the front?’ but slowly one or two of them started to get the hang of it and were swayed by things like ‘I think they really are raising it’ or ‘Isn’t it just a pet snake?’ Ni, ‘It’s a basilisk,’ he resigned, thinking, ‘I won’t be surprised if Wardanaz raises dragons in the future.’
“for a moment. “Why did you say you weren’t an alchemist?”
“I have a long story. So why? “I have to go to the next lecture.”
Shiles got teary-eyed at the sight of his friend trying to go to the next lecture, ignoring the break.
‘for a moment. ‘I didn’t mean to talk about this.’
Shiles came to his senses and asked.
“You said Basilisk, then?”
“ah. “I usually communicate with Basilisk often and practice music magic, so it was a bit easier.”
“…So you did it anyway?”
“Did you? So, you said it.”
“indeed.”
Shiles nodded.
Thanks to this, the feeling of regret I just felt has completely disappeared.
“By any chance, Shiles. Are you interested in the Basilisk language? Great. “If you want to learn, come here with Basil…”
“I’m going to learn wyvern. “Okay then!”
Seeing his black turtle top friend turning away coldly, Lee Han grumbled that he didn’t even know how to be grateful.

“Wardanaz student! “I heard you were kidnapped, but it’s good to see you healthy!”
Professor Djorjic of the Benmalfa family greeted him with his usual voice full of passion and energy.
Perhaps due to his mood, his stylishly grown seagull-shaped mustache seemed to be flapping more vigorously today.
“hello. Professor Benmalpa. “I’m glad you care.”
“okay! “I was really worried.”
“Uh, professor… did you also participate?”
Lee Han wondered if Professor Djorjic was actually among the three professors who came to rescue him.
Although it was not visible, given the personalities of Professors Garcia and Boladi, they could have kidnapped Professor Jorgic as well.
“What do you mean?”
“no.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I’ve been busy with other things! Wardanaz student. “I wrote a letter to His Majesty the Emperor!”
“yes??”
Lee Han was surprised.
Who did you write what to?
“I wrote a fancy letter asking you to take responsibility for your kidnapping, and asking that Jorgic of the Benmalfa family should be the next headmaster.”
In response, Lee Han gave a look of disdain.
He uses his student’s tragedy as a stepping stone for his own ambitions!
‘I think we should leave the group <Jorgik of the Benmalfa family as the headmaster of Einrogard>.’
Professor Djorjic, trapped in his ambition, muttered, not realizing that he had fallen to a similar position to Professor Verdus among his students.
“But the Death Knights confiscated it… what a shame. How can I send a letter through their surveillance?”
“If you find a way, please tell me. professor.”
“haha! Don’t worry. As the next principal of Einrogard, I can’t afford to not be able to listen to the next professor’s request! Then shall we begin the lecture? Come in, Student Wardanaz!”
“yes.”
Lee Han followed the professor’s instructions and entered Won Soo’s room.
Then I suddenly felt something strange and stopped.
“What did you just say…”
Creep!
“Ahh! The water element is running wild!!”
“Get out of the way.”
Lee Han waved his wand and chanted a spell to gain control as water shot out in all directions from the nearby waterfall.
Since the water element was the most familiar and familiar element, I was confident even if another wizard made a mistake and caused it to go berserk.
“Great! Wodanaz!”
“The thunderbolt exploded! “Everyone be careful!”
‘Why are you like this today?’
Of course, since the elemental room is a place where elemental energy flows strongly, there is a high possibility that students will accidentally run away while practicing, but today was a bit unlucky.
Lee Han ran here and there with his seniors to control the lightning element.
“Huh… Hah. thank you “Wardanaz senior.”
“yes?”
“ah. that’s right. You were in second grade. In an instant. haha.”
“……”
Because he was running around so frantically, Lee Han forgot what Professor Djorjic had just said.
Professor Djorjic, who watched with satisfaction as the students settled down, waved his cane to tidy up the surroundings and instructed them to practice again.
“Come on, student Wardanaz! “How was the method you used last time, where you used fire magic on your body?”
“I’m not sure because I was kidnapped after that.”
“indeed! It’s okay. This can be happen. Just do it again.”
Professor Djorjic exclaimed passionately.
The effort to teach an outstanding student was only a very minor one.
Aden Arth, who was next to him, looked at the two in astonishment upon hearing that they were lighting the fire again.
“But before that, try casting fire magic a few times. “I want to see how much of a difference there is!”
“yes.”
Lee Han most recently cast <Lesser Flame Wall>, which he practiced while being attacked by a crazy 5th grade senior.
Professor Djorjic was puzzled by the clean and stable casting.
“no? “It’s so much better!”
“It’s because I just practiced this.”
“Then try other magic!”
Lee Han cast several hypocrisy fire spells.
Lee Han paused as the fire elemental magic was cast reliably, unlike usual.
‘…uh?’
“It looks like you’ve overcome the problem?”
“…I think so.”
“Hmm! Interesting. “What was the reason?”
Professor Djorjic wrote on a piece of paper, ‘Permanent burning at the stake?’ I found it interesting, writing things like ‘Kidnapped by the clone of an ancient wizard?’
Which of these was the cause?
