Episode 974
Although Zarun of the Iron Shoes family was not an old dwarf miner, he was knowledgeable about Orichalcon, but he still had a few things wrong.
The reason Orichalcon pushed Zarun away was not because he was contaminated.
The original, unfinished Orichalcon pushed back the greedy invaders. Just as some plants move to protect themselves, Orichalcon was also like that.
Once Orichalcon was fully completed, most of its characteristics of repelling intruders disappeared.
If no one touched it, it generally became a high-density magic condensation, and if someone touched it and affected or polluted it, it changed in a way that it had different characteristics.
“indeed.”
Lee Han coaxed the baby basilisk to stop hissing (it wasn’t very effective) and listened intently to his crazy alter ego’s explanation.
Unless you have to learn it yourself, most of the crazy alter ego’s teachings are useful and meaningful.
Where can we find the knowledge and wisdom practiced in ancient times?
Sometimes there are magic spells that Lee Han has to learn himself…
“But the reason you shouldn’t separate it from your body is because it consumes a lot of magical energy?”
“Yes.”
‘I think people would usually call something like this cursed ore.’
In general, the places where Orichalcon was created were places where its energy was particularly strong, even deep underground.
Orichalcum cannot be crystallized with any amount of energy.
Therefore, when Orichalcon was discovered, it was usually appropriate to leave it untouched and have miners regularly visit and take care of it.
It was a bit unusual for a wizard to immediately pick it up and carry it around like now…
“Wouldn’t it have been right to just leave it here and raise it?”
“I’m sure he would have said that he should keep the treasure within his grasp. Moreover, if you consider taming it, it is advantageous to carry it with you.”
“ah. “You said you will be raised the way you want.”
When I think about it, Orichalcon is a unique ore that is grown according to the will of the person who cares for it.
Certainly, considering that, it might have been better to carry it with me.
…The magic power will be sucked out like crazy, but that’s it…
‘Because it’s already not just one or two.’
Lee Han stared at the baby basilisk. The hissing monster looked at its owner and waved its tail as if asking why.
“How do you raise them? “Can I talk to you?”
If that were the case, Lee Han could have sung a lullaby to her every night before going to bed, saying, ‘I wish I could become an expensive and valuable jewel.’
“Does Orichalcon look like he has ears?”
“…There is none.”
“There is only one way to raise Orichalcon the way you want. “The character of a miner.”
In ancient times, a group of evil dwarf miners searched for the unfinished Orichalcon to create the magic sword they wanted.
Those who eventually found what they were looking for performed a bloody ritual in front of Orichalcon.
Not only did they execute captured prisoners, but they also subjected them to various tortures and human sacrifices.
In the end, they even swung hammers at each other to complete Orichalcon.
“What happened to that Orichalcon… in the end?”
“It became an evil and vicious metal, just as the dwarves wanted. In return, I killed the last remaining dwarf.”
He was an evil dwarf miner who survived until the end, but his ending was in vain.
Before the demon sword could be completed, the contaminated Orichalcon changed into the form of a weapon and cut off its life.
In a way, the dwarf miners’ goal was achieved. It may have been completely different from what they thought.
‘What does this mean, that you can raise anything you want?’
Lee Han was embarrassed inside.
You can grow whatever you want, isn’t that what you usually say about plants growing in pots?
From what I heard, it looks like a metal that changes into the shape of a sword and stabs the owner’s neck…
By Lee Han’s standards, it wasn’t something he could raise at all as he wanted.
“…So, if you want to raise Orichalcon the way you want, you should show him only the best and good things possible?”
“Wrong. “When it comes to making such pretense, it would be better to rule with your own pure will.”
‘…Is there such a thing?’
Pure will.
No matter how much I thought about it, the only thing that came to mind was Orichalcon saying ‘Give me the gold’ about a month ago.
When a basilisk whines for food from one sleeve and Orichalcon whines for gold from the other sleeve…
‘It must be terrible.’
“I…”
“stop. You are wasting the royal family’s time. How are the other magics going?”
“It’s just so-so.”
The crazy alter ego clicked his tongue blatantly.
It was a very disapproving look, but Lee Han didn’t care.
Originally, a disciple was someone who disappointed his teacher.
If you don’t disappoint your teacher, you can’t really be called a disciple!
Otherwise, why would you learn from a teacher?
“It’s such a waste of time…”
The crazy alter ego who was speaking paused.
A message arrived from another dimension.
“Looks like we have some time left here too.”
“?!”
As the teacher called up magic letters in the air with a sarcastic tone, Lee Han felt an unidentifiable sense of ominousness.
How many people are sending messages like that to their crazy alter ego right now?
No matter how much I thought about it, I could only think of one person…

“Are you by any chance King Yasha?”
“Yes. “From the way you’re asking, it seems like you want to learn the characters of the yakshas.”
‘No.’
I really didn’t have the slightest desire to learn, but it was true that I felt frustrated as my crazy alter ego nodded lightly while reading text in the air that only he knew.
Was it something you should have learned?
“Right.”
“…What is it about?”
“Disciple, you have begun to enter the small world.”
The crazy alter ego didn’t show any particular change in expression. That made Lee Han even more afraid.
‘This cursed Yacha bastard?’
Lee Han gritted his teeth.
Despite the numerous despicable tricks he had been subjected to so far, Lee Han had been forgiven.
And yet it comes back in a surprise attack like this.
It was truly an extremely evil being.
“This is just an introduction, but I only heard the explanation. “I haven’t figured it out yet.”
The crazy clone didn’t answer.
Instead, he looked Lee Han up and down lightly and was lost in thought. That silence made Lee Han even more afraid.
“Is it Vasilius?”
“…Yes, that’s true, but I really only heard the explanation…”
“indeed. “I see.”
The crazy alter ego was lost in thought again. As the silence became longer than before, Lee Han seriously considered his escape route.
“excellent.”
“?!”
Lee Han was surprised by the sudden praise.
“yes?”
“He said it was great. “I understand that you want to be praised twice by the royal family, but please stop being so ravenous.”
“…It’s not like that. “I haven’t figured it out yet, but they said it was great, so that’s why.”
The crazy alter ego thought one last time.
After a long silence, the crazy clone finally spoke.
“no. Just do it like you do now. “That would be nice.”
“????”
Lee Han felt even more confused.
Isn’t the other person misunderstanding something?
“I don’t really understand that we can just do it the way it is now… Is that possible?”
“It might be confusing. “The royal family has no choice but to show mercy to their foolish disciple.”
“oh. What kind of mercy?”
Lee Han was pleased.
Is there a book like

‘Hehe.’
The beginning of a new week.
Delet hung a balloon made of toad skin at the entrance to the
Even in my opinion, it was made quite well.
Yukveltyre, who was painting the classroom wall next to him in darkness, asked as if he did not understand.
“This useless thing doesn’t help your magic at all…”
“shut up.”
“But it’s really magical…”
“shut up.”
“Interrupting the conversation illogically doesn’t make your argument correct, Delet…”
“uh. Quiet.”
“……”
Yukveltire painted the wall in darkness with a slightly more pouty expression than before.
Direth was a brilliant wizard, but he often made foolish choices, and this was one such case.
I can’t believe they used the debt owed to Yukveltyre just to make these preparations.
It was like swinging a sword made to kill a dragon at a mouse.
But I couldn’t help it. Except for a few unique students, all students tended to think, ‘If I become a professor, I will act differently.’
Delet was like that too.
Although he studied under a number of bleak professors, including Professor Mo, Direth firmly resolved that if the moment came for him to teach, he would do it differently from the existing professors.
We will give you a happy lecture that will make the students laugh out loud because they are having fun!
But the reality was harsh.
Once the semester started, Delet struggled just preparing for lectures. If one of his unusually talented juniors hadn’t taken care of everything from class self-study to school funds, he might have had several times more difficult times.
Although he didn’t have much free time for a while, Dirette’s opportunity finally came.
Lectures were temporarily suspended due to club week.
Delet took advantage of that opportunity to prepare various things.
Balloons made of toad skin (made the usually dark underground classroom cheerful), classroom walls painted in darkness (if you looked closely, you could sometimes see undead moving with their faces out), strawberry slush poured into a skull cup (delicious), etc. .
It was a shame that there was only one junior to see this.
“hmm. Should I summon the undead and make them sit at an empty desk? To make it feel more like a festival?”
“……”
Yukveltire ignored it, pretending not to hear it. Di Lett prodded his friend until he opened his mouth.
“…I think it is a truly useless and meaningless action…”
“okay. “I have to do it.”
“……”
Direth summoned the undead and made him sit on the chair, regardless of whether his friend’s fingertips were trembling or not.
As I was preparing, it occurred to me that I should have done this in front of this year’s first-year juniors as well.
If that were the case, the number of students applying to the black magic school would have increased several times.
‘If a junior comes in and sees this, won’t he fall down from surprise?’
The festival-like (by black magic standards) classroom atmosphere gave Delet such confidence.
At this level, I think it would be enough to hold a
Grumble-
With the sound of the door opening, a junior member of the Wardanaz family came inside.
Lee Han paused at the sight of the classroom being very different from usual.
‘what? Is it a trap?’
“I was surprised!”
Delet shouted as if he had been waiting. Lee Han answered cautiously.
“yes. I was surprised. But this… exactly…”
“I decorated the classroom a little while the lecture was on break. “So that you can learn in a fun and enjoyable way!”
“ah.”
Only then did Lee Han realize the purpose of the changed classroom.
It’s like a festival!
‘It wasn’t a trap.’
The answer was easy as long as you knew the purpose.
“It’s so cool. senior! This is probably the nicest classroom in Einrogard. “Do you think other people would be really jealous if they found out that I was learning in a place like this?”
The skillful response of the trained junior made Delet happy.
“okay? really?”
“yes. By the way, senior. “I have one thing to tell you…is that okay?”
“Junior. Speak comfortably. “We are from the same school, right?”
Direth, who was so happy, didn’t notice that the character ‘nim’ was added after his senior.
“Well… I think there will be one more person listening to the lecture.”
“I’m okay. who?”
Auditing classes at Einrogard was not particularly difficult.
Even if it is not a course you are taking, if you have the knowledge you need, you can visit for a moment and listen.
Delet thought that one of Lee Han’s friends needed black magic knowledge.
“It is this person.”
“Wizard. “Begin teaching.”
While he was chatting with his juniors, Direth fell backwards in surprise at the sight of his crazy alter ego quietly entering the classroom and sitting down.
