Episode 927
“hmm. “The professor was wrong.”
At Direth’s words, Professor Mortum looked shocked and betrayed.
But Delet didn’t care. According to Einrogard’s student law, it was basically self-defense even if a student betrayed and attacked his teacher.
And if one of the juniors and the professor has to be hurt, wouldn’t it be right for the latter to get hurt?
“you’re right. “You should have told me in advance.”
“that’s right. i think so too.”
“Cough. They seem like bad guys. “Even though I gave them the opportunity to learn on their own…”
Professor Mortum coughed and grumbled, but Direth pretended not to hear and ignored him.
“professor. Can’t we negotiate with the main body?”
“With the main body?”
Professor Mortum, who was sipping warm lemon honey tea (which Lee Han regularly brewed and placed on the first floor of Heukam Hall) frowned.
Attempting to negotiate directly with the main body was a completely different story.
It wasn’t very dangerous to use an alter ego, or even an egoless fragment, as an undead monster.
This was especially true as I had obtained the other person’s permission.
However, negotiating directly with a powerful undead body…
“Cough. “Do we really need to do that?”
Beings from other dimensions were basically unpredictable and eccentric. This was especially true for beings from the undead world.
He may have been weakened, but if my guess is correct, he seems to have almost regained his strength, but if he tried to negotiate, he would only end up in trouble.
“Of course, you have to be careful. But this side is not without arguments.”
Delet expressed his thoughts with an unwavering attitude.
If it had been an ordinary theft, or rather a negotiation, Delet wouldn’t have bothered to negotiate.
There would have been no point in asking a powerful undead being that I didn’t even know about to return my clone.
But now the situation was a little different.
Her junior did not simply use her alter ego, but also steadily built and developed friendships with her.
In addition, it helped the main body recover its strength by giving it an additional gift of enormous magical power.
Contracts and laws at other levels were stricter than the written laws of the empire. Even for a powerful being, it was not easy to forget favors and grudges.
“If you point out this, there is a possibility that the other party will acknowledge it and offer reasonable compensation.”
“indeed…”
Professor Mortum sipped his tea and gave his student’s opinion high marks.
As the next professor of the Einrogard school of black magic, he was keenly aware of the loopholes even in this situation.
A true warlock must escape from the warehouse even when captured by the devil.
‘excellent.’
Professor Mortum, impressed by his student’s growth, thought he should send Delet instead to the next Warlock Society meeting.
Originally, I put it off for fear that the disciple would be nervous because there were only big warlocks, but now I see that the disciple is fully qualified.
Professor Mortum felt intoxicated with himself as he continued to challenge his trustworthy student. Unlike his skeletal headmaster, Professor Mortrum himself was a really good teacher.
“I will personally negotiate with my junior. me too…”
“It’s not possible.”
“?!”
The two were greatly surprised by the unexpected rejection of their second-year student.
“uh? why?”
“Senior, you are busy. “I will do it with you, professor.”
“……”
“……”
So you’re saying I’m not busy?
* * *
“Junior. “You can’t say that in front of the professor.”
“yes?”
Direth carefully gave advice as he walked up to the upper level of the Black Rock Hall with Lee Han.
Professor Mortum pretended that nothing had happened, but he seemed slightly hurt.
Of course, I was grateful to respect my seniors, but I also had to show respect to my professors sometimes.
The professor was also a somewhat weak-hearted person.
“What?”
“You mean… I’m going to do it with the professor. You may not have intended it, but from the professor’s perspective, it may sound like he’s not busy…”
“ah. “You mean that?”
“!?”
When his junior responded that he knew, Direth was startled and the feathers on his wings bristled.
No, he said it knowingly!?
“Did you say that knowingly?!”
“yes? “Of course I thought it could feel that way.”
“But why do you say that?”
“No… Senior, you’re busy.”
If bullying a busy senior vs. being hurt by a mean professor, Lee Han chose the latter without hesitation.
Is it such a big deal that a professor who entrusts a new student with an evil and powerful undead clone but doesn’t say anything gets his heart broken?
In comparison, it was a terrible tragedy that the most difficult senior in Einrogard became even more difficult.
‘Who is the toughest senior in Einroguard… ah.’
Delet, who had been wondering inside, realized it too late and was shocked.
‘Do I look like that…?!’

Delet vowed that he would stop complaining in front of his juniors from now on.
How pitiful and pitiful must he have looked for his junior to think like that?
“But senior, are you really okay? “If you ask the professor right now…”
“No no no no. stop. The professor is busy too! Of course, it may not seem that way on the outside!”
“hmm.”
Lee Han thought, ‘No matter how busy a professor is, he must be busier than his students. If that’s the case, then why should I continue to be a professor?’ But he didn’t say anything because he respected his senior.
“And I came forward because it overlaps with the mission I am currently assigned to. Junior.”
“Mission?”
“huh.”
Delet explained clearly what he was currently responsible for.
As the younger members of the Wardanaz family will soon find out, Einrogard students often take on various additional requests and missions in addition to the basic education process.
And Direth, a 5th year student of the Black Magic School, took on a wide range of tasks, from personal requests to missions brought to the Einroguard School of Black Magic.
‘Ugh. Poor.’
Delet had no idea that his junior was feeling even more sorry for him because of the explanation he had just given.
“The mission I have received now is to assist in tracking down evil spirit worshipers. “The warlocks are involved.”
“It’s a shame. “Wizards are falling into the worship of evil spirits.”
Even for a wizard at the forefront of wisdom, it was not easy to break away from faith.
People like the Skeleton Headmaster and the Wodanaz family head were unusual, and among wizards, there were a significant number of those who relied on faith.
And in the empire, illegal beliefs tend to be more powerful and promise more destructive power than legal ones.
If you think about it that way, it was natural for evil spirit worshipers to appear among wizards.
“…I wasn’t saying that the warlocks were worshipers of evil spirits, but rather that the warlocks were hunting down worshipers of evil spirits. Junior…”
“……”
Lee Han said nothing and remained silent. Delet was also silent.
“haha! “I was mistaken!”
“This can be happen!”
The two didn’t talk about ‘Why did you think the warlock was an evil god worshiper?’ It was because I knew that both of us would be sad.
“But isn’t it dangerous? Those who worship evil gods…”
“It’s just an assistant.”
Holy magic had its quirks, like supernatural powers, wild magic, and primitive magic.
At least, the legitimate religious denominations in the empire had some theories because they had been researching for a long time, but the evil denomination denominations did not have any such thing.
However, this instability made it difficult to deal with evil worshipers.
It is an enemy that boldly unleashes a strange and unique power that is different from existing imperial magic.
But Delet wasn’t too worried. This was because he was an assistant who analyzed and interpreted the information received rather than tracking it directly.
The request received this week is to track the existence of the undead world contracted by evil god worshipers.
The warlocks who saw the evil power they used realized that they had made a contract with a powerful undead and contacted them.
“What kind of undead are you?”
“I use the power of corruption and corruption, but I don’t know anything more than that. I need to find out more. “It will take some time.”
Delet, who was speaking, hesitated.
Come to think of it, if I don’t finish this work within the weekend, it will also affect next week’s lectures.
“Maybe a junior? Postponing the lecture… No. Forget it…”
“I’m fine!”
Lee Han shouted before his senior even finished speaking.
“If you are busy, it is okay to postpone the lecture. “But the progress is already fast enough.”
‘That’s right.’
The junior was definitely right.
The lecture on “Poison, Bone, Blood” was going much faster than expected.
It was because of the proactiveness of my junior, who did everything despite not being asked to do it.
But Delet felt remorse.
Is it really right to arbitrarily postpone a junior’s opportunity to learn because of one’s own request?
If it had been my friend Yukbeltire, he would have passed it on without thinking for a second, saying, ‘I’ll see you next week,’ but Deirette still had a human heart.
“But that’s a bit…”
“Next week is club activity week anyway. There must be many students going out.”
“ah. “Is it already that time?”
Delet’s eyes widened at Lee Han’s words.
Even though I was busy in the 4th grade, I still felt that time was passing by to some extent, but in the 5th grade, I really started to act independently of the time of the Einrogard students.
Delet said with a bit of bitterness.
“I see. If that’s the case… fine. If I have to go out for club activities, it would be okay to postpone the lecture. Which club…”
Delet, who was about to ask which club it was, canceled the question.
When I thought about it, that question didn’t mean much to this junior.
“Do you have any advice?”
“Hmm. Well… first of all, don’t cause too much of an accident outside.”
“And?”
“Don’t let the club close.”
“……”
At the senior’s regretful answer, Lee Han slowly became afraid to ask more questions.
* * *
“With this, we will explore the undead world.”
Delet shook off the dust and entered the corner room of the Dark House and pointed to the purple door.
The old wooden door creaked as if it might break at any moment, but Lee Han felt a powerful wave of magical power there.
That wasn’t all. After learning Yeongrak, I was able to capture the flow of the dimension connected to the door with my expanded perspective.
“Is this an artifact connected to the undead world?”
“and. how did you know? that’s right.”
Delet was surprised when his junior noticed it without even hearing an explanation.
Usually, it was not easy to figure out the abilities of this artifact just by looking at its appearance.
“This is <The Wooden Gate of Mortum>. “It allows exploration and negotiation on behalf of the undead world without having to enter it.”
“!”
Even if you are a wizard, it is not easy to visit a dimension directly and conduct exploration or negotiations.
This was especially true when it came to the dangerous undead world.
This door was a powerful artifact that reduced that risk and made exploration possible instead.
‘That’s amazing…!’
Direth was satisfied as his junior was surprised.
“Isn’t it amazing?”
“But, Professor, did you hide and use this artifact to yourself? “I think I definitely had a chance to use this last time…”
“Well, it’s not like that. “It’s because there are some strict conditions when using artifacts.”
Delet spoke hastily.
It wasn’t completely wrong. These artifacts could not be used carelessly because the reagents required for one operation were considerable.
“Well, that’s true too. “There is a cost, so not everyone can use it… but seniors can use it however they want, right?”
“ruler. “I’ll show you how to use this.”
“…You can use it however you want, right??”
