Episode 840
“Oh, no.”
Lee Han’s lie was half a beat late because he hit the nail on the head.
Professor Garcia grumbled as if he knew everything.
“You don’t have to protect me, Student Lee Han. Lagesa has been like that for a long time. She was the type of person who said that bullying students wasn’t fun.”
‘That’s it.’
Lee Han was dumbfounded.
What value is there in the Einrogard faculty if we exclude Professor Garcia?
It’s a really dangerous thing to say, but it could have been lower than Baldrogard.
“Ignore that nonsense.”
“That’s right, Student Lee Han. Then, shall we take the test?”
“…yes.”
“I’m just kidding. There’s no exam.”
The lecture <On understanding very difficult and arcane magic (don’t come if you are not confident)> did not have a written test.
In Professor Garcia’s opinion, there was no need for this lecture to test students by creating a separate paper exam.
“professor!”
“Are you happy?”
“Oh, I’m happy, but I’m worried about the professor. Isn’t the principal sending me to a punishment room?”
“……”
Professor Garcia was heartbroken to see his student already so mature for a second year student.
“Don’t worry I’m not going.”
“Are you sure you’re not going? Professor Verdus says if you skip an exam on your own, you go to the punishment room?”
‘Ah-oh.’
Professor Garcia cursed Professor Verdus in his mind.
He was teaching the students something really good.
“Professor Verdus, as you know, has his… um… purpose…”
“Are you talking about the purpose of abandoning the students and only researching your own magic?”
“…Thank you for telling me in detail, Student Lee Han. Anyway, Professor Verdus has a lot of criminal records, so he often goes to the punishment room. I don’t usually have a criminal record.”
No matter how much Principal Skeleton enjoyed sending someone to the punishment room, he didn’t send them out on purpose.
This was especially true for faculty. If one person is missing, there will be a hole in the lecture immediately.
So, Principal Skeleton sent him to the punishment room based on his cool-headed judgment.
Professor Verdus skipped the written test -> Professor Verdus must have had evil intentions, so he was sent to the punishment room.
Professor Garcia skipped the written test -> There is no problem because Professor Garcia probably did it in good faith.
“It’s like this.”
‘no. ‘You’re surprisingly fair, aren’t you?’
Lee Han was slightly impressed.
In case you didn’t know who the principal was, he was quite fair in this regard.
“And if I go to the punishment room, there will be a lot of gaps in Einroguard work… For similar reasons, 5th grade students also don’t go there often.”
“What about Professor Verdus?”
“In the first place, even if the professor leaves, there won’t be much of a trace.”
“……”
Lee Han was speechless.
How much raw food do you eat…!
“Thank you professor.”
“Ah. Student Lee Han has nothing to thank me for. I made the decision because I thought there was no need for an exam. I’m already busy this week, but I can at least have a lecture today.
Rest in peace.”
Professor Garcia handed out freshly brewed coffee.
Today, rather than giving a lecture, I planned to ask Lee Han how he was doing.
“Now that I think about it, student Lee Han. I heard that we all visited the Spirit King’s realm together.”
“Kick.”
When Lee Han made an angry sound, Professor Garcia was greatly embarrassed.
“Are you okay!? Was the coffee too hot?!”
“Oh, no. I was just surprised. Information was passed on so quickly between professors…”
“Ah. Teaching students is important.”
I don’t think it’s at a level where I can just get over it with words like that.
Lee Han soothed his sore throat and put down his coffee cup.
“Is that the new wand you received?”
“Yes. It’s not finished yet. We need to process the black magnet to fit it here.”
“Student Lee Han. Does this seem like an ancient magic style? Did the principal order it?”
Professor Garcia was puzzled when he saw the half-caduceus-shaped staff.
Most of the current imperial canes were composed of a special material that served as the core of the cane and a stable material that covered the outside of the material.
This was because this structure enabled efficient and stable use of magic.
However, if the two materials were simply woven together in this way without making a separate wick, the stability was greatly reduced.
In exchange for output, the wizard must be much more careful.
Moreover, they were using two ridiculous materials: black magnet and spirit king’s sacred tree…
“yes.”
Lee Han immediately agreed as he was blaming the black book. Professor Garcia was very upset at the answer and shouted.
“I don’t know why you’re recommending the old style of wand! I’m already using dangerous enough magic, but I’m not asking you to use even more dangerous magic!”

‘It seems right…’
Lee Han, who was thinking to himself, asked quietly.
“Can this change shape?”
“It’s difficult if there’s a powerful high-ranking spirit inside. Student Lee Han. We have to wake him up again and subdue him…”
It took quite a bit of effort to wake him up, and even more so to subdue him.
Lee Han recalled the sight of King Tujeonseungmok running wild at that time.
He was beaten and turned upside down, but when he regained his strength, he would attack Lee Han again.
‘I guess I’ll just give up and do it.’
“Well.. if there are disadvantages, there are also advantages. I will try to be satisfied with the advantages.”
Lee Han said, trying not to grit his teeth. Professor Garcia nodded his head as if he understood.
“Then, Professor Verdus… No, please.”
“What?”
“Black magnet processing. Professor Verdus is good at it.”
“Is that possible? Oh, in exchange?”
Professor Verdus was the type of person who wouldn’t do anything he didn’t want to do, even if it meant beating him to death, but surprisingly, he was a person who accepted the exchange docilely.
If you ask Lee Han to process black magnets in return for his labor, he will be able to do it.
“Exchange? Are you going to exchange it for Mule, Student Lee Han?”
“I can help you with your work…”
“There’s no need for that. I helped Professor Verdus with something, so you should help me too.”
“…professor…!”
Lee Han was moved by his teacher’s grace.
You’re trying to make Lee Han repay the debt he owes Professor Garcia.
“After the lecture, we’ll come together… No, it’s better if we go alone.”
“Would you like to come with me? I think it would be better to show you the wand right away.”
“Hmm.”
Professor Garcia hesitated.
If I went to see Professor Verdus, I would definitely have a few difficult conversations, but I didn’t want to take my student with me.
-professor. Last time, I went on patrol instead of him, graded tests for him, prepared assignments for him, made artifacts to fill up with criminals, and gave him materials.
Since I’m sorry, could you please take a look at Lee Han’s cane?
-huh? no.
-hey!
…I didn’t want a second-year student to hear this conversation.
But this challenge was not easy. Of course it was expected.
‘Professor Garcia is too kind, so if he meets a villain like Professor Verdus, he could be defrauded.’
If Professor Verdus went to collect the debt he owed and came back to do more favors, Lee Han could have collapsed while holding the back of his head.
Lee Han suddenly remembered Delet, who was jumping up and down and getting angry.
‘…omg. Is this why Direth gets angry every time he sees me?’
Lee Han, who was pondering, shook his head.
He was different from Professor Garcia.
Unlike the good Professor Garcia, he was acting quite selfishly.
‘I’m definitely different.’
“Uh, okay. Student Lee Han. Let’s go together after the lecture. Did anything else happen?”
“hmm…”
Lee Han recalled the conversation he had with his crazy clone just before coming here.
There were a few more stories besides the past stories that the skeleton principal had and the scolding he gave for an hour.
-So, a thousand things. You cast Small World?
-yes. Dendrobium and Basilius…
-Then I can use it now.
-no?
-……
-sorry. But I can’t even use 5-circle magic right now…
-Do you mean that saying sorry will change the impossible magic? Hurry up. A thousand things. When are you going to have even the bare minimum of honor as a disciple?
‘I think it will be difficult even when the world ends.’
The crazy alter ego recommended using the black book to write the small world a few more times.
Whether or not a person was vomiting blood, there were often cases where high-level magic was forced into the brain and the brain would bloom on its own.
It was an even more likely story if it was a talent possessed by a boy from the Wardanaz family.
-But if you fail, won’t you go crazy?
-Are you worried about insanity when you haven’t even cast it?
-Oh, yes…
After finishing reminiscing, Lee Han made a decision.
I shouldn’t tell Professor Garcia!
‘If you tell me, you might faint from shock.’
“Student Lee Han. Are you currently thinking about cutting out dangerous things so that I don’t have to worry?”
‘omg.’
“No. Why do you think that?”
“I suddenly have this thought…”
“That’s not it, I was thinking of something else. Professor, do you know about the principal’s past?”
“There are so many, I don’t know what they are talking about.”
“…When he was alive, did you know that he was the prince of a small country?”
“You know that.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised.
“Ah. Have you read the history book?”
“No… the principal tells me when he’s bored. Student Lee Han.”
When I thought about it, it was like that.
If you were a student, you would have heard much more bragging from professors as they had more contact with each other.
“Then have you heard this too?”
Lee Han explained the goal his crazy alter ego had in mind.
The goal is to remove poison from the world with the power of magic.
Professor Garcia listened to his student with a serious expression.
“No. I’ve never heard of it.”
“What do you think?”
“Usually wizards like that become magic criminals…”
“……”
“Oh, no. I’m sorry. I should have thought about this student before I spoke.”
“Thank you for being honest…”
Professor Garcia’s sentiments were not entirely wrong.
Wizards who set an unattainable goal either become Sisyphus forever or go crazy and become magic criminals.
“If it were any other wizard, I would have ignored it, but I’m a little worried because the principal’s alter ego is like that. It’s impossible, so why would he do that?”
“Is it really impossible?”
“Well, Student Lee Han, I don’t know everything about magic. The more I learn about magic, the more I feel that we don’t know anything about magic. It might really be possible. But it’s more important than whether it’s possible or impossible. “Wouldn’t it be right to think about whether that method is right or wrong? Student Lee Han?”
“That is correct.”
Lee Han agreed with Professor Garcia.
It is not a question of whether it is possible or impossible, but whether the path is right or wrong.
“The clone already asked me to continue the path and walk. I think the reason he came down was because he still had lingering regrets about this.”
“…You should have said that first!”
Professor Garcia shouted angrily.
What’s the point of such a calm conversation when you don’t even know if your karma will be pointed out?
“Ah, no. It’s not confirmed yet. I think my alter ego might get upset while teaching and give up.”
“I don’t think so… I don’t think so…”
In the professor’s view, the least likely thing is that the crazy alter ego doesn’t like the student and gives up and goes back.
No matter how much I thought about it, it wasn’t easy to find another student like Lee Han.
“Huh. That’s it. Student Lee Han. Even if I try to stop him, he won’t listen. I’ll go and learn magic again.”
“No… no.”
Lee Han was taken aback when the professor he trusted and followed showed a clear look of disappointment.
