Episode 934
Meanwhile, Professor Garcia, who was staying at the
Originally, students were supposed to gather together every evening and talk about what had happened, but one second-year student did not attend.
Of course, I could not attend depending on the circumstances of the request, but this time the story was a little different.
“Long live the righteous enemy! Long live the upside-down Uap!”
“I never thought there would be such a hero in Grandeur City!”
“……”
Professor Garcia looked distraught as the adventurers clinked their beer glasses excitedly behind him.
I thought the rumors would die down a bit over time, but it felt like they were gaining momentum.
“Did you hear that? “The western district guard commander got scared and increased the number of guards.”
“It’s too late now. The righteous enemy will come looking for him!”
“But who on earth does this? “I heard you look like a wizard?”
“Aren’t you from Einrogard? “It’s close from here.”
“what. Einroguard wizards may have excellent skills, but they are all eccentric. “These are not the people who would do this.”
“I might be able to do it because I’m a weirdo…”
“…I don’t think it’s something an Einroguard wizard would do!”
“What?”
The adventurers were surprised to see a troll-mixed wizard suddenly joining the conversation.
At the same time, they checked themselves to see if they had made any mistakes. There was nothing good about being hostile to a wizard.
“sorry. “Our voices were too loud.”
“no. no. “I decided to join in because it was an interesting rumor.”
“also! “The wizard is also interested!”
The adventurers were delighted.
I was already curious, but an authoritative wizard would participate in the conversation.
“That righteous enemy is a wizard, right?”
“Ah… I guess so.”
Professor Garcia sighed inwardly.
Adventurers were not fools. I couldn’t forcefully deny this.
“It is not easy to break through powerful magic defenses so easily… no matter how much the adventurer has the artifact. “It is most reasonable to think of yourself as a wizard.”
“Of course, after all!”
“Did everyone hear that? “The righteous enemy is a wizard!”
At the adventurer’s shout, the people on the first floor of the inn erupted in cheers and applause. There was a loud sound of someone stamping their feet.
“To commemorate this, we will name this new drink
“Wow!”
Professor Garcia looked at Mapara, the inn waiter, with resentful eyes.
He was usually kind and kind, and he was amazing at reading the minds of his guests, but today, his talent caught Professor Garcia by surprise.
If you do that, won’t it continue to be talked about in people’s mouths?
“Mr. Garcia. “Take it!”
“thank you…”
Professor Garcia forced a smile as he saw Mapara pouring high-quality wine into a tin glass.
“what’s the matter?”
“hey! “Today,
“Long live the righteous enemy! Long live wine!”
Even passers-by outside the street heard the rumor and came rushing in.
The adventurers, who had a drink each without knowing Professor Garcia’s distress, asked again.
“Wizard! So what kind of wizard is the righteous enemy? After all, Einrogard?”
“I said no!”
“That’s right!”
“…I don’t think he’s an Ainrogard wizard. As everyone knows, Einroguard wizards are a bit eccentric.”
“……”
Courier Mapara, who knew the other person’s identity, looked at him in bewilderment, but Professor Garcia kept his mouth shut.
The waiter shook his head, then swiped the counter and poured the thick meat broth into bowls one after another.
‘I think all Einroguard wizards are eccentric.’
“Well, the wizards of Einroguard are a bit eccentric.”
“Shh! Aren’t you scared? “Don’t you know that a former adventurer who insulted Einrogard turned into a toad?”
“It must be a rumor! Don’t the Einroguard wizards have anything to do? “Are you going to chase adventurers like us and turn them into toads?”
“…Anyway, everyone agrees that he’s not an Einroguard wizard, right?”
Everyone nodded at Professor Garcia’s words.
In fact, it was rare in Grandeur City for anyone to be so twisted as to rebel against the words of a mixed troll while everyone was having a drink.
“I think he’s at least a hundred years old.”
“but! “You said that the longer a wizard lives, the stronger he becomes?”
“And he must have a very destructive and violent personality.”
“I guess so! “Look at what happened to those who suffered today.”
Professor Garcia breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point, it seemed like people would never figure out the identity of the righteous enemy.
“Who on earth is a wizard who is over 100 years old and destructive and violent?”
“Isn’t he the wizard of the Lava Tower? “There’s a wizard whose head is always on fire.”
“What about Gargajun? “He’s over a hundred years old, a destructive and violent wizard.”

“Isn’t that person imprisoned in the imperial prison?”
After a heated discussion, an order for additional wine, and a happy smiling waiter, the inn door opened and a noble-looking boy came in.
Lee Han looked around the inn, which was filled with enthusiasm, and asked Professor Garcia in a whisper.
“Is today, by any chance, a festival day?”
“…Follow me upstairs right now!”
* * *
“no. Why didn’t you stop me?!”
“……”
The first thing the shameless student said after hearing the situation explained was Professor Garcia, who wanted to pinch both cheeks.
“That’s how much it’s dried. Student Lee Han!”
“Why on earth are you so excited?”
“I guess that’s how excited the people of Grande City were… Don’t ever say that you did something like this somewhere.”
I’m sure the people of Grandeur City would have liked it, but I couldn’t tell what kind of resentment the people who had been harmed would harbor.
There is no need for an unfinished wizard like Lee Han to carry around many enemies.
“understand. sorry.”
“no. You’re out of luck… aren’t you? Did you get lucky?”
“……”
Professor Garcia, who was muttering, laughed when he saw the thick pile of books Lee Han was holding.
“Student Lee Han, are you going to study magic again after you come out? “You can have some fun!”
“ah. “It’s not about studying magic, but about recent famous plays from the empire and the legends, tales, and stories related to them.”
Professor Garcia let out a short scream and dropped the tin cup he was holding.
Lee Han, who stopped the glass before it fell quickly with telekinesis, asked in surprise.
“Why are you doing that?”
“I was a bit surprised that this student was really playing!”
“……”
Lee Han grumbled inwardly and returned the glass back to his teacher’s hand.
“It’s not that, it’s… no, it’s the preparation necessary for the request. “There’s a place I need to infiltrate.”
“After beating you up like that, are there still any requests left?”
Professor Garcia was puzzled.
Do seniors bully Lee Han?
Lee Han pretended not to hear. The request to escape from the theater club was not something I could say anywhere.
“I had to pretend to know something about theater, but it was difficult.”
Lee Han took out a well-bound, thick leather book titled “Imperial Theater for Nobles.”
“ah. That book. “Professor Crinval, please participate in binding that, too.”
“……”
As expected, he was a famous dancer in the social world.
“I also participated.”
“Professor, do you know much about theater too?!”
“yes? yes. “I often go see it with Professor Crinval.”
‘Nonsense!’
Lee Han was astonished.
Of course, Professor Garcia was a cultured person, but he was basically a person who devoted his life to magic.
How do we even watch a play together?
‘Is this possible because you master time magic?’
Professor Garcia asked, not noticing his student’s confusion.
“How far have you read, student Lee Han?”
“I read ‘The Beginning of Ancient Drama’ here.”
“…That’s the first page.”
Professor Garcia was dumbfounded.
Progress stops at the first page of this thick book. Is this a book I just received?
“Ugh. “Because the book is difficult…”
“It’s not difficult at all.”
I couldn’t understand what they were talking about when I learned magic that was a hundred times more difficult than that in an instant.
Professor Garcia urged his student.
“ruler. Read it now. “They said it was necessary.”
“All right. then…”
Lee Han opened the first page in quick succession, as if he were turning a poisoned page.
And then it stopped.
“…Student Lee Han. “Can’t you move on quickly?”
“Tsk. All right.”
Thanks to Professor Garcia, Lee Han was able to learn about how imperial theater plays recently, what plays were popular, what magic actors learn for plays, how wizards make money from it, etc.
“ruler. “Tell me about the content of the most popular play.”
“The heirs of two opposing families fall in love, but unable to overcome the opposition of those around them, they ultimately choose to die.”
“that’s right. After that?”
“A great lich appears and resurrects them both… No, but wouldn’t it be cleaner without this?”
“What are you talking about? Student Lee Han. This is the highlight. “I really like the solo that the great Richie sings here.”
‘Tsk. This is why art.’
Lee Han felt that art was much more difficult than imperial magic.
It was difficult for an ordinary talent like Lee Han to keep up with the difference in sensibility.
“But at this rate, I won’t be treated like a weirdo somewhere.”
“thank you. professor.”
Lee Han expressed his sincere gratitude to the teacher who worked hard to help his incompetent student.
If it weren’t for Professor Garcia, I might have really failed to infiltrate.
How could I cram this ridiculously large volume into my head?
“Then we should get going.”
“I will support you. Student Lee Han!”
Lee Han nodded and walked out the door of the inn. Then the people waiting outside started talking.
“Mr. Stedalnago, are you here?”
“yes. Let’s go!”
“……”
You should come up with a proper pseudonym, really…!
* * *
Arian spoke in a stern manner.
“You really shouldn’t beat your opponent this time.”
“…Why would I lose?”
“I know. young master. But you really shouldn’t beat your opponent.”
‘I don’t think you have any idea.’
Lee Han thought.
Arian said on the outside that he trusted Lee Han, but on the inside he seemed to slightly not trust him.
It was a truly unfair story for Lee Han, who had to fight his opponent due to unavoidable bad luck.
“ruler. “Please say that again.”
“We meet nobles, introduce ourselves, and become friends. We go to the palace to see a play together. Finally, we contact Einrogard students.”
“great. “What kind of noble is Stedalnago?”
“He is a nobleman who was captured by pirates in the southern part of the empire and rescued by Ragesa, daughter of Thorgerd, who leads the privateer fleet. He made a fortune by finding a treasure map obtained while he was captured by pirates. From then on, he devoted himself to alchemy, created several potions, and made his fortune even more…”
“It’s too specific, and I don’t think it’s necessary to explain how I amassed a lot of wealth, but… well, there’s no harm in preparing. “I think it’s okay.”
Arian was slightly embarrassed by Lee Han’s background, which was much more detailed than expected, but eventually nodded.
What he was thinking was ‘a certain family from a certain region’…
‘But there’s nothing wrong with being so detailed.’
“Even during the speculation crisis in the Empire, Stedalnago remained unwavering and continued to accumulate more wealth.”
“I understand, so you can stop talking now.”
