Episode 881
Although he was skeptical, Lee Han agreed.
I guess the crazy alter ego would know more about giants.
The only thing Lee Han knew about giants was what he met when he entered Einroguard, and his crazy alter ego must have met many giants during his lifetime…
“Let’s go. Lee Han of the Wardanaz family.”
After completing preparations in the workshop, Intarendals, the ancestor of the Dalkad family and a nobleman from the old Three Kingdoms era, walked out.
Behind it, several self-moving carts were waiting. It seemed to be a negotiating price to be paid to the giants.
Jo Woorin wants to go too!
“You descendant of a noble lineage. Giants are rough and fierce.”
Then why is Lee Han going?
“…Shouldn’t a disciple know how to do this?”
It was truly rare to see his crazy alter ego, who maintained an arrogant attitude without breaking a sweat even when a skeleton principal appeared in front of him, so embarrassed.
Lee Han was walking along Interendals, but stopped and looked. When will we see something like this again?
“What are you doing?”
“I was checking the contents of the cart.”
Lee Han quickly made an excuse. At that excuse, Intarendals looked at Lee Han with happy eyes.
As expected from a wizard chosen by Gonadaltes as his disciple, he was not usually very meticulous.
Jo Woo-rin wants to go too! Jo Woo-rin wants to go too! Jo Woo-rin wants to go too!!
“Go ahead.”
As Jo Woo-rin prepared to roll left and right, the crazy clone hurriedly gave orders to his disciple.
Taking advantage of the confusion, Eandurde asked quietly.
“Even if I follow you…”
“What nonsense are you talking about? no. Dangerous.”
“……”
Eandurde was dumbfounded.
Then why am I so obedient?
* * *
“Are giants that dangerous?”
“ah. Giants… I guess you could say that. Lee Han of the Wardanaz family.”
Intarendals sighed as if old memories were coming back.
During the Three Kingdoms, giants were a mercenary race that appeared wherever destruction and plunder were needed.
The giants who were on the siege side and destroyed the castle walls yesterday were on the siege side and destroyed the siege weapons today.
The giants faithfully fulfilled any request as long as they were given gold, and sometimes it seemed as if they wanted this war to last forever.
“…I don’t think the mountain giants are that bad…?”
Lee Han was embarrassed by the giants’ past, which was bloodier than he expected.
Of course, the giants at that time were the ancestors of the ancestors of the mountain giants of today, but it was still shocking.
“of course. As time passes, everything changes, just as kingdoms decline and heroes grow old. It’s no wonder that the giants’ rage is a bit tame. But Lee Han of the Wardanaz family. You must not forget it. That there is an ember sleeping in the hearts of giants. The moment the embers bloomed fiercely, the giants…”
-Did you find us?
“!”
A large head popped out from behind the peak. They were giants.
Intarendals cleared his throat once and gestured. Then the cloth covering the carts behind them scattered, revealing dazzling gold to be offered to the giants.
Lee Han looked at the light emanating from the gold as if fascinated.
‘no. How much of their heritage has the Dalkad family lost?’
There is no way his crazy alter ego could have secured any wealth during that time, and the only gold that Intarendals brought with him would be.
It would be very unfair for the Dalkad family.
Instead of passing on the inheritance to descendants, the family’s ancestors were investing in a strange ancient archmage…
-What is this?
“?!”
But the giants were annoyed. The giants said after taking a bite of cheese made from the milk of the Mountain Breaking Sheep.
-Wizards like shiny gold. We’re not that stupid.
“no…!”
Intarendals was taken aback by the reaction of the giants, who were so different from the past.
Giants who are indifferent to gold?
It was an unrealistic and unbelievable appearance, like demons who were deceived by humans and became their servants instead of deceiving humans.
-Wodanaz!
The giants, who were trying to drive out the stranger bluntly, opened their eyes wide when they discovered Lee Han.
-Why has it been so long since I came?
-I missed you! I thought the wizards had locked it up!
The giants, including everyone, smiled and welcomed Lee Han.
-I heard that Wardanaz was kidnapped. Wizards suck.
-We are strong. I don’t allow the sheep I raise to be kidnapped.
“Have you ever been kidnapped?”
Intarendals spoke to Lee Han in a voice that was hard to believe. Lee Han looked at the other person as if he was dumbfounded.
Who would have kidnapped Lee Han if not the master served by Intarendals?
“…I came here because I had something more to ask you.”
-Follow me! It guides you.
-It was meal time.
“I’m full after eating.”

Lee Han, who knows the food of giants, answered immediately. Then the giants were very happy.
– As expected, Wardanaz, you have good manners!
-The most ugly wizard, come and ask for something to eat! Follow me!
As the giants stomped forward, Intarendals seemed to have recovered from the shock and opened his mouth again.
“The giants have indeed changed a lot… No matter how much time changes everything, I never thought it would be to this extent.”
“hmm. Is that so?”
Lee Han, who was listening to the story, suddenly became curious and asked.
“Maybe the devil was more evil in the old days?”
“You mean it was more evil?”
“So… many of the demons I know are tricked by contracts and are working as slaves for the territory. However, if you look at the history books, it feels much more evil…”
“ah. I know what you mean. “I was also very surprised when I visited Einrogard.”
Intarendals realized what Lee Han was talking about and nodded.
It wasn’t just the kingdom and the giants that changed over time. The demons had also changed a lot.
During the Three Kingdoms, demons were truly symbols of fear and misfortune.
Once the devil appears, it doesn’t end with defeating it. The devil worshipers who were deceived by the devil, and the minions who were taken in by the devil worshipers.
It was no exaggeration to say that the area itself was polluted.
However, now the continent’s wizards, including Einroguard, were attacking and exploiting the demons more easily than expected.
If the victims of demons during the Three Kingdoms had seen it, they would have been moved to tears.
“Time decays kingdoms and ages heroes, but it seems that it accumulates wisdom. “I see you dealing with demons like this.”
“Isn’t it possible that the principal spread the secret?”
Lee Han cautiously asked a question.
Although it was just a hypothesis, it was a pretty convincing one. Not only are there few people who have lived like the skeleton principal since ancient times, but among those people, there are even fewer people who take such active action.
‘And they are also the ones who benefit the most from inciting the devil.’
It wasn’t like that in the past, but now that I see him using dozens and hundreds of demon slaves, no matter how I think about it, I feel a little suspicious about the skeleton principal.
Of course, since Interendals takes a crazy alter ego as its owner and denies the skeleton principal himself, such questions had no choice but to be cautious. It feels like praise.
“Hmm… I can’t completely deny it. Of course, the current lord of Einrogard is presumptuously referring to the master, but isn’t he the master’s alter ego anyway? If so, it can truly be said to be a great achievement…”
“yes? “Do you mean having hundreds of demons under your control?”
“no. Lee Han of the Wardanaz family. I’m not saying that. “I’m talking about spreading the secret to dealing with demons across the continent.”
“ah.”
Lee Han became slightly embarrassed.
‘Well… that’s an achievement…’
Just as he developed and spread a cure for an incurable disease, organizing and spreading the secret to deceiving demons could also be considered a high achievement.
In the process, I had hundreds of demons with me, but still!
‘Both giants and demons change a lot. ‘Of course.’
Lee Han once again felt the difference between the past and the present that ancient figures such as the skeleton headmaster spoke of.
And the perseverance of the skeleton principal, who is still consistently grumpy even though he has lived so long…
“really. Interendals. “Can I ask you one more thing?”
“Ask anything.”
“Is the star Arna that dangerous?”
Basically, the wizard’s contract started with easily accessible spirits and ended with demons and races from other dimensions, and did not go all the way to the stars.
Right now, even the school of wisdom magic deals with it only to a limited extent because it is difficult and dangerous, so there is no reason to force a contract with a star.
Therefore, there were relatively few books on this heavenly magic, and Lee Han had no opportunity to study it in advance. It was difficult to understand why people behaved like that just by hearing the name Arna.
“Arnara! It’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. “But why are you asking that?”
Intarendals asked why he didn’t hear the conversation between Lee Han and his crazy alter ego earlier.
“…I heard your name by chance.”
Lee Han said that he signed a contract for no reason, but he was worried that a similar reaction would come out before.
“Hmm. It’s not a name you’ll hear by chance, but… first of all, the guest star Arna is not a dangerous star. Rather, it is a star of glory.”
“oh. Is that so?”
Lee Han was pleased.
After signing the contract, I kept getting negative reactions (my crazy alter ego gave me positive reactions, but they didn’t help much), which made me feel uncomfortable, but this was the first time I heard something good about it.
“yes. “It is the star of reformers, destroying kingdoms and melting crowns.”
“……”
Lee Han’s face hardened.
In a moment, the title of an article that would be printed in large letters in the imperial newspaper came to mind.
…Descendant of the Wardanaz family, ‘shocked’ by charges of imperial treason… Turned out to have dreamed of a new imperial dynasty…
…The ambitious man who cleverly deceived the royal family reveals his true colors!…
“How is this not a dangerous star???”
“yes? It is a star that the master also made a contract with. “It is not a dangerous star, but a glorious star.”
Intarendals said in genuine surprise.
In ancient astrological and celestial magic concepts, Arna was the star that appeared for heroes when the continent was in turmoil and sorrow.
A star that helps the hero on his way forward with the most intensely burning light!
The chosen hero also burned brightly like that star and sacrificed himself for the continent. It did not betray the star’s choice.
“……”
Lee Han’s face hardened to the point where he could no longer stand. It seemed like even if I cast a petrification spell, it wouldn’t be able to harden to this degree.
“…The continent is stable and peaceful, but if a star like that appears and makes a contract, what is that person?”
“Hmm. Well, that’s a difficult assumption. but…”
Intarendals searched his memory and tried to make as many assumptions as possible.
The contract with the stars could be interpreted in many ways, and there were many things that could only be known after the results were released, so it was quite difficult for Interendals who were not experts.
But still, when the master’s disciple asked this question, I had to use whatever talent I lacked.
“Right now, two things come to mind.”
“I would like to hear your opinion.”
“First of all, I think that a major crisis will soon hit the continent and that we will sacrifice ourselves to prevent that crisis.”
“…What about the other one?”
“The continent appears stable and peaceful, but in fact it is slowly rotting away, so he may be a usurper trying to become emperor himself.”
“……”
Lee Han suddenly ran to the side of the road and started yelling down the deep ravine.
The giants who had gathered and waited for Lee Han were startled and ran out. Then he pointed at Interendals.
-What did you say to Wardanaz! I can’t believe that good Wardanaz swears like that!
-But who is the Yaksha King?
