Episode 951
“Wardanaz!”
“That crazy senior has finally shown his true colors!”
The friends who were listening outside immediately kicked down the door and came in as soon as they heard the screams.
They were friends who offered to help Lee Han with his work with a pure heart, but if the matter was related to a crazy senior, the story was a little different.
You must not let your guard down anytime, anywhere.
‘I knew it would be like that!’
The friends who ran in stopped when they saw Illendil fallen backwards. Anrago quietly put away his sword. Nilia also hid her shortbow under her cloak.
“what. “Wardanaz didn’t shout.”
“It’s okay if the opponent faints. haha.”
‘Are you okay?’
Aden Arth tilted his head inwardly.
No matter how senior you are, I don’t think it’s okay…
“Senior collapsed.”
“why? “I heard you were trying to summon a dark spirit again?”
‘It seems like there is a thorn hidden in the words of my friends.’
Lee Han was slightly embarrassed by his friends’ cold reactions.
After dealing with so many crazy seniors, Illendil felt average.
“Yoner. “Can you give me some potion?”
“here. But Lee Han. “It might not be a good choice to wake up a senior who has fainted.”
“…I didn’t knock you out.”
Am I right?
Lee Han felt a slight pang inside.
The reason why Illendil fainted was because he didn’t like dealing with other people and was weak due to lack of training, but there was a low probability that he was shocked by Ihan’s identity.
At least Lee Han behaved quite politely in front of Illendil.
You might be surprised at how different your identity is from your appearance in the Watchmen Club…
‘But you have to wear a mask to hide your original identity.’
Isn’t Illendil originally a person who doesn’t like dealing with people and slowly takes care of plants and spirits in the corners of the forest?
Even such a person showed a sharp and aggressive side within the Watchmen Club.
In particular, I kept mistreating Lee Han just because of his nickname.
“Seniors. Are you okay?”
“I-I think I had a ridiculous… dream…”
“Have you ever dreamed of changing the principal?”
“…no. “It wasn’t a dream.”
Illendil looked at Ihan with an expression full of shock, surprise, confusion, and disgust.
I can’t believe that such a kind junior was Gonadaltes!
“How on earth… is it not different at all…?”
“It’s camouflage.”
“Is that so?”
Illendil was slightly intrigued by his junior’s words.
When I really thought about it, it made some sense to call it camouflage.
The reason why a good junior who loves spirits behaved like a crazy person was a disguise to hide his true identity.
In fact, Illendil himself had no guess at all, so it could be said to be an excellent disguise.
“We ask for your continued support. Seniors.”
“Uh, huh.”
Illendil nodded slowly.
“Don’t forget to agree with what I say at the Watchman’s Club.”
“Yes…”
While agreeing, Illendil felt as if he was falling into a trap.
A feeling that something was strange crept in, as if I had stepped into a swamp by mistake.
what…?
“So what do we need to do to retrieve the artifact?”
“ah.”
Illendil, who had been in a state of confusion due to his evil junior, barely came back to his senses.
“First of all, I told the knights and wizards in Grandeur City.”
Illendil slowly pointed his fingers and explained what he had done before coming here.
First, I contacted the knights and wizards of Grandeur City, and also delivered the news to the Death Knights just in case.
At the same time, the current situation was communicated to the broad-minded and sociable students at Einrogard to prepare for any untoward incidents that might occur when going out.
“no. How did you do it so quickly?”
“huh? “I asked the spirits.”
“……”
Lee Han suppressed his frustration and swallowed it.
I felt like the ridiculous sense of deprivation I felt when I was talking to Arsil was flooding back.
“But the spirit controlled by the mercenaries secretly revealed the truth. “Is it possible for a spirit to betray you like that?”
Lee Han asked just in case.
It would be very bitter if the spirit that Lee Han contracted with later sided with Illendil.
“Oh, no. “The spirits never betray.”
‘Then what did you tell your senior?’

Illendil must have noticed his junior’s suspicious look and quickly made an excuse.
Of course, he said he was in a bit of a hurry, but his voice was still slow.
“Well, that’s because the mercenaries didn’t make a formal contract with the spirit… but because they forcibly imprisoned it. “A spirit does not betray the person it made a contract with…”
“…What exactly is the scope of deterrence?”
“??”
“no. “Let’s continue talking about relics.”
The exact name of the ancient artifact currently possessed by the mercenaries is
Surprisingly, it was originally an artifact created to communicate with divine beings.
“Is that possible!?”
“yes?”
Illendil shrugged his shoulders proudly when his junior was surprised.
Among wizards, there were many who denied the omniscience and omnipotence of divine beings, but none even denied their existence.
There was much disagreement about how it worked, but the power itself existed.
And if there is power, a wizard tries to use that power. Naturally, there were magicians who tried to use the power of divine beings.
‘Well, in the past, even demigods were created artificially and summoned.’
Right now, the Black Emperor’s Crown magic was a type of magic that summoned a demigod, imprisoned him, and then exploited its power.
In comparison,
“Evil worshipers… are using this to pollute it.”
It was not easy to spread the belief in evil spirits, which were oppressed in the empire, but with this artifact, the story was different.
Aren’t even disloyal mercenaries following God’s will in an instant?
“Anyway, it seems like a pretty useful relic, but it’s surprising that they would boldly give it to mercenaries.”
“Because the way of thinking of evil god worshipers is very distorted…”
It was not easy to predict the behavior principles of evil god worshipers with a general way of thinking.
Especially since it is fundamentally twisted and full of madness.
Illendil predicted that he might be overconfident in God’s command.
If they are people who follow God’s orders and move, there is no way they will lose their relics!
“And the mercenaries are all skilled…”
“The captured mercenary looked a bit clumsy.”
“Couldn’t it have been contaminated by an evil spirit and become strange?”
“indeed.”
Lee Han was somewhat convinced by his senior’s words.
Certainly, a person’s intelligence and judgment could decline somewhat if he or she was contaminated by an evil spirit.
“Then what will you do?”
“Friends… are they all helping together?”
“yes. “Are you uncomfortable?”
Illendil shook his head left and right.
We weren’t gathered in a small space, but moving around to work, so I wasn’t going to complain.
What Illendil was curious about was something else.
“How are you going to divide the rights to the relics?”
They say the two can share the rights to the relic, but it becomes difficult when the number increases.
As for compensation, won’t there be a problem later?
“ah. “I just came here to help.”
“……”
Illendil was astonished by his junior’s powerful friendship.
I never thought that a junior in the Watchmen Club who calls himself Gonadaltes would have so many friends.
Suddenly, I felt a sense of distance in my heart.
“Hmm… Well, that’s good…”
“Did I do something wrong? Why suddenly?”
“Nothing.”
* * *
Grandeur City was a large city and there were countless places to hide.
Finding a skilled mercenary in a place like this wasn’t easy, no matter how great the tracker was.
“Hehe. But we have someone from the Shadow Patrol.”
Angago said with a voice full of pride.
At those words, Nilia was startled and looked at her friend.
Anyway, how can we find mercenaries here?
‘This… you white tiger pagoda bastard!’
“There’s no need for that. “Because there is a spirit.”
Illendil spoke slowly.
The spirit who initially gave information to Illendil was still staying with the mercenaries.
The mercenaries weren’t stupid either, so they didn’t act noticeably, but they were still able to track the general direction.
“More than that… I think we’ll need more escorts.”
“If you’re an escort, what about adventurers? Or knights?”
Illendil shook his head again. Then he took the glass bottle out of his arms and threw it on the floor.
With the sound of breaking glass, the solution bubbled up and took the form of a human being.
“!”
“This…!”
Everyone was surprised, but the alchemy students were especially surprised.
They say there is a solution that can remember shapes or specific commands, but they can create something so elaborate in the shape of a human being.
“Is it a spirit?”
“It seems like I made a contract with a spirit and made it my soul, and my body was made up of some alchemy reagents.”
“Is that possible? “How do you carry that around?”
The students were curious and poked at the alchemy soldier.
Illendil smiled and joked at the cute behavior of his juniors.
“I dissolved the adventurer in a shape-changing solution and made him remember it.”
“……”
“……”
The curious expressions of the second-year students hardened and turned cold.
Illendil, who had made his own joke about conversion, looked at Lee Han in confusion.
“Why why? Are you kidding? “Isn’t it funny…?”
“I laughed. But I think it would be better for you not to joke from now on.”
The group moved in silence, following Illendil, who was a little more tearful than before (the distance between the friends was further apart).
“uh.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“The spirit said it was hiding here…”
Seeing Illendil’s hesitation, Lee Han realized the reason.
Grandeur City Guards 2nd Barracks.
It was a bit of an awkward place for outsiders to enter on their own.
“Let’s quietly get permission and go in. Shall we call the knights or wizards?”
“no. For people in Grandeur City, ownership of artifacts can become complicated. The same goes for Death Knights. “Because the principal can take it.”
Illendil spoke with the fastest and most accurate pronunciation he had ever spoken.
Who wouldn’t be an Einroguard wizard? He never gave up on his desires.
“then?”
“I can’t help it.”
Illendil nodded with a determined expression. She wondered if there was a good way for her fourth-year senior, so she asked Lee Han.
“Is there a good way?”
“The only way is to set fire to the vacant lot, drive people out, and then force their way in…”
“…I’ll just persuade you.”
Shocked, Lee Han stopped his senior.
After hanging out with Direth and meeting Yukveltire, I thought, ‘Wow, there’s a senior like this,’ but when I got to meet Illendil, I ended up in the realm of ‘Wow, is there really a senior like this?’
At least Yukbeltire didn’t seem to set fire and force an invasion in this situation.
“B-but isn’t there another way?”
“I think there are hundreds. ah. Daihal of the Dalkad family is working here as a special administrator. I would like to ask you a favor.”
Illendil spoke with an expression of realization at Leehan’s words.
“Is there a Dalkad family?”
Asan raised his hand. Only then did Il Rendil nod her head in understanding.
“I see. If that’s the case, I understand. “If it’s someone from the same family, it’s persuasive…”
“ah. Wardanaz will go, not me. “My brother likes Wodanaz more than me.”
Asan said as if it was obvious.
“Asan. It’s not that Daihal doesn’t think about you. “He said he praised you at the last chess meeting.”
“what?! There was a chess meeting!?”
“…Anyway, I’ll go and come back.”
Lee Han left to ask Asan’s brother for a favor.
Illendil, who was watching blankly, asked quietly.
“Am I the only one who thinks this is strange…?”
