Episode 948
Lee Han quickly gave up.
When I think about it, I acted too complacent in front of someone of Joanen’s level.
‘shit. It’s so difficult to imitate Gainando.’
Surprisingly, it seemed that imitating Gainando was more difficult than imitating the skeleton principal.
After giving up, Lee Han pointed to Ioanen’s amethyst glasses and asked.
“Do you confirm my identity with that?”
“no. Wardanaz, it is not easy to observe with glasses because the magic power causes interference.”
“…Then how?”
“It’s a logical guess.”
Yoner’s older sister shrugged her shoulders.
A wizard who focuses only on magic is always prone to missing important things.
There were only a few intelligent friends next to Yoner. Among them, the only one who was close enough to Gaynando to borrow his name was Wardanaz.
“Wardanaz, it would be good for you to remember this too.”
“thank you. “I will remember what I learned today.”
The two gave up and obediently removed their disguises. Lee Han suddenly realized a sense of discomfort and asked a question.
“But what is Makin doing here…?”
When I thought about it, this was a workshop under Prince Bogajun, not Yoanen’s workshop. There was no reason for Ioannen to be here.
Ioanen and the other alchemists paused. Some alchemists seemed to avoid eye contact, perhaps due to their mood.
“I visited for alchemical reasons. “Isn’t the exchange between alchemists truly wonderful?”
“Then where are the workshop alchemists here…”
“Wardanaz. “That’s not what’s important right now.”
Ioanen spoke with an elegance that the ragtag Einrogard students could never imitate.
It was so elegant that even Ihan and Yoner passed by without even noticing it.
“Wardanaz and Yoner brought the Nago family reagent?”
“…oh. yes.”
“Did you know Nago?”
“…Uh, yes.”
Ihan and Yoner responded by rolling their eyes.
Strictly speaking, it wasn’t wrong.
“Are you the new professor?”
“Well… maybe.”
Joner thought to himself as he said that.
Her friend would definitely become a professor at Einrogard someday, so this wasn’t a lie either.
Lee Han opened his mouth, not knowing that the red-haired wizard next to him was thinking evil thoughts.
“Makin, do you know me too?”
“It’s a rumor that’s deeper than the fact that all the transport ships coming to Grandeur City have sunk, but I don’t know how. Of course I heard it. But… could that reagent be Yeommokgeun?”
‘This is strange. ‘Something’s wrong!’
Unlike Ihan, Yoner felt a chill as if a piece of ice had touched his spine.
something…
Something is strange!
But unfortunately, the friend next to him didn’t seem to sense danger.
“That’s right, Yeommokgeun.”
“Could you please check for a moment?”
“It’s not difficult.”
Since it wasn’t a very difficult request, Lee Han easily took out a Yeommokgeun.
I didn’t take out the other workshops because they could only be shown after making a formal appointment, but the students were walking around with one piece of Yeommokgeun so they could show it at any time.
The alchemists exclaimed in exclamation at its specialness, which was completely different from the ordinary Yeommokgeun. The smile on Ioanen’s mouth also deepened slightly.
“That’s great.”
“indeed. “It must have been from the Nago family…”
The alchemists nodded in understanding.
Originally, there wasn’t just one coincidence.
Rumors of an eccentric wizard have recently spread in Grandeur City, and rumors of a special reagent have also spread at the same time.
These two rumors were bound to be related.
As expected, the reagent cultivated by the wizard’s family was correct. The alchemists exchanged triumphant looks.
I finally found it!
“Then, Wodanaz. “Can I ask you one more thing?”
“Of course.”
“Why didn’t you bring this Yeommokgeun to my workshop?”
Yoner’s older sister showed the deepest smile she had ever seen today. The alchemists behind her also spoke as if they were disappointed.
“I’m sad. Wardanaz. “Didn’t you work in our workshop?”
“Are you saying our workshop did something wrong?”
Lee Han was slightly embarrassed by the alchemists’ criticism. I looked to the side and saw that Yoner was shedding a cold sweat.
‘What’s wrong with him?’
When it didn’t seem like his friend would be of help, Lee Han answered.
“The next room…”
“…You’re not saying you tried to ask, are you? The locations of the alchemy workshops that have been visited regarding the Nago family’s reagents are as follows. Is there any reason for you to pass by my workshop on your route?”
Now, cold sweat began to form on Lee Han’s back.

I felt the pressure I felt when dealing with my crazy alter ego.
‘I let my guard down. Although she is Yoner’s older sister, she is a professor-level wizard. He’s also said to be like Professor Verdus.’
I didn’t know how long I had been collecting rumors about the Nago family by visiting alchemy workshops in the area.
No, why on earth would you do something like that?
‘Do you have anything to do?’
“It was the most important place, so I tried to prepare as much as possible and visit it last.”
“I see. Wardanaz. I thought this for a moment. Could it be that someone… has spread a bad rumor about my workshop? “Maybe they were spreading a rumor that it wasn’t a good place to sell reagents… That’s what I’m saying.”
Yoner began to whimper and hiccup slightly. Lee Han struggled to control his expression.
‘From now on, before visiting a mansion, I’ll have to sneak in and check the number of people before entering…’
To Lee Han, Ioanen seemed almost half convinced.
To be honest, it wasn’t a good excuse to not stop by and visit at the end while I was on the route. A person of Ioanen’s stature would have noticed right away.
“Wardanaz. First of all, let me say that I never skimp on good things. Think about the last time you worked in our workshop. “Did I save money?”
“no.”
“Yes?”
As Ioanen laughed softly, Ioner looked at me and said.
“Well… well… but the reagents are different…”
Gold coins were not spared for outstanding talents, but reagents were a different story.
Ioanen was not an alchemist who forced himself to pay more gold coins because of the opinions or rumors of those around him.
An alchemist who never pays more than what he thinks is exactly worth.
That was Ioanen Makin.
“Yoner. Of course, the reagents are different. “There are many cases where reagents can be replaced.”
Ioanen explained as if he was scolding his younger brother.
The reagent was different from the talent.
There is no reason to pay more gold coins than necessary when it can be obtained anytime, anywhere and can be replaced.
However, when it comes to really good reagents, even in limited quantities, the story is different.
Ioanen was an alchemist who measured the price accurately and was never an alchemist who bought things at bargain prices.
“But for a reagent like this, you can pay a lot more than other workshops. ruler. look.”
The two’s eyes widened as they watched gold coins being piled up on the scale.
It was twice as much gold coins as the price range I had discussed with other workshops.
“Are you sure you can pay like this?”
“It’s a reagent that’s worth it. Wardanaz. “I pay a lot of gold coins for things of value.”
Ihan and Yoner exchanged glances and nodded.
At this level, there was no need to worry any further. In fact, I was worried that it would be too much of a loss for Ioanen.
There may be an advantage in obtaining the necessary reagents exclusively, but…
“If someone says they will pay a higher price, be sure to tell them.”
Ioanen’s eyes were calm, but I could feel the cold burning will inside them. Yoner whispered in a panicked voice.
“I guess she really liked the reagent. “I didn’t know it would be that bad.”
“Is it because there is no stock of Yeommokgeun in Grandeur City right now?”
Even taking that into account, Ioanen’s reaction was unusual.
Ihan and Yoner realized that the reagent they had created was better than expected.
“Yoner. “Maybe he can really become the greatest merchant in Grandeur City…”
“Well, it’s not that bad, but I guess it can run really stably.”
Ioanen, who had been listening to their conversation with a gentle smile, opened his mouth.
“Then can I ask you one last question?”
“yes.”
“Who said something bad about my workshop?”
Yoanen took a deep breath in response to Yoanen’s surprise question.
The way he was looking at himself while asking questions was almost as if he had confirmed the culprit.
‘I got hit…!’
Ihan sighed and said next to Yoner, who was screaming internally.
“I can’t hide anything from Makin. “You must keep it a secret.”
“Sure.”
“This is Gainando.”
“……”
This time, Ioanen looked caught off guard.
Could it be that it was Kainando and not his younger brother?!

“Speculation wave. Speculative wave…”
“You were so absorbed in the play at the palace, but why can’t you remember this time?”
Salko asked Angago as if he were puzzled.
Why can’t the guy who was so steady in the palace remember this?
“Is that the same thing?! I was so shocked at that time that my memory flew away! And even then, I didn’t care about the speculative wave! “You cared about the treasure map!”
When the painful past was pointed out to him, Anrago got angry. It was a fact that still made her feel betrayed.
Stedal Nago was a person who did not exist.
Even though the fascinating story of Stedahl and Lee Han’s forced study were the same, they were completely different. The latter was not much different from studying Einrogard.
‘He’s a strange guy.’
Salko thought so and knocked on the door of the alchemy workshop.
“Are you there?”
No answer came back. A light could be seen inside the window, but there was no answer, so Salco and Anrago looked at each other.
what?
“Are you there? “Look!”
Thump thump thump-
As I repeatedly knocked on the door, I heard someone answering from inside.
“S-sorry. “You were sleeping.”
“You mean in the middle of the day? “Has something happened…”
“It’s no big deal. “Fellow alchemists came to visit and drank some alcohol, and they ended up drinking too much.”
Salco and Anrago looked around the workshop through the open door.
There were a lot of drunk alchemists lying around.
“hmm. “Then I’ll come next time.”
“yes. sorry. Wow…”
The alchemist who opened the door must have been quite hungover and ran straight inside.
The two walked out, tilting their heads.
“Did the alchemists of Grande City originally enjoy drinking during the day?”
“Is that possible? Don’t be stupid. “It must be a coincidence.”
Thump thump thump-
The two moved to the next mansion.
This was not a workshop, but it was the residence of a merchant who was interested in alchemy, so it was a suitable place to sell it.
“The master is very drunk. “I’m sorry, but please return today.”
“yes?”
“Alchemists I know came to visit us and opened small tables. sorry.”
“…???”
After that, wherever they went, the alchemists and merchants in the workshop were drunk, and the two slowly felt afraid.
Was there something like a festival in Grandeur City that they didn’t know about?
“I guess it’s not like the principal’s prank.”
“…That can’t be possible! “Don’t say such sinister things.”
