Episode 986
Lee Han thought to himself when he heard criticism from his friend even though he supported him.
‘The White Tiger Tower guys must have been quite upset.’
Actually, it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand Moradi’s inner thoughts.
Statistically, among the four towers, the one with the most accidents was the White Tiger Tower.
Blue Dragon Tower was from a noble family, so he was very concerned about his reputation when he got into trouble (even though he did pick up fallen food), and Black Turtle Tower preferred to solve problems secretly and quietly, so he didn’t get into trouble.
However, the White Tiger Tower students were unnecessarily proud in some strange ways.
I could tell just by looking at it right away.
Didn’t he proudly escape to watch a hard-fought game and now proudly enter the punishment cell?
It was something that students at the Blue Dragon Tower would never have done.
‘If you think about it that way, the Blue Dragon Tower is definitely better.’
Lee Han nodded with a slightly proud heart. Giselle looked at him suspiciously.
‘I feel strangely bad…what is it?’
“Moradi. Don’t be too angry because Angago went to the punishment room. “You went to Salco too.”
“…I wondered what he was thinking, and that’s what he was thinking. “Isn’t that because of that?”
“No? Then… Ah. i get it. It’s because of the exam. “Don’t worry, the Blue Dragon Tower guys won’t do the same.”
Those weren’t particularly comforting words.
And even though the White Tiger Tower students played the same way, they played much more boldly than the Blue Dragon Tower students. I should never have been fooled by words like that.
‘It’s annoying that you, who realized first as an Auror, are rooting for me, you bastard…’
But even if I said this, I would only ruin my own face.
Giselle just gave up and changed the subject.
“…Are your exam preparations going well?”
“Once this week is over, we should start in earnest.”
As he spoke, Lee Han caught a glimpse of the crazy alter ego in front of him.
The crazy clone preferred to rush into high-level magic that could kill Lee Han while learning it, and did not like being obsessed with the Einroguard exam.
To be more specific, I thought I was wasting my time doing trash.
“…Are you okay?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Well, test preparation. There is a possibility that I will not be satisfied in Master’s eyes…”
“Does not matter. “Let me teach you.”
“?”
Lee Han couldn’t believe his ears.
Not only will you allow me to focus on preparing for the Einrogard exam, but you will also teach me?
In the first place, Lee Han didn’t even think about asking his crazy alter ego. That was such a ridiculous request.
I never thought he would go out of his way to help me, not only with permission, but even with requests I didn’t ask for.
“You’re helping me prepare for the test??”
“Are you not listening to the royal family?”
“Oh, no. That’s not it, I’m so sad…”
When Lee Han hesitated, Giselle asked in confusion.
“Isn’t it good for you?”
Although that alter ego was a crazy archmage, no one could deny his magical skills.
If such an archmage directly helped with the test, it would be much more efficient than any other help.
Of course it could be dangerous.
How worried the other students were because that crazy clone kidnapped Wardanaz early in the semester.
but…
‘If it’s Wardanaz’s personality, he probably doesn’t care much about danger.’
The Wardanaz that Giselle knew was a crazy magic addict who always pursued high risk and high return.
There was no way a person like that would hesitate just because his crazy alter ego was dangerous. Besides, their relationship seemed to be quite amicable right now.
‘I feel strangely bad. ‘Maybe he’s insulting me.’
Lee Han doubted in his heart.
As Giselle stared at me, I felt a strange discomfort.
“Okay… it’s a long story, but it’s a bit embarrassing to hear someone who doesn’t like that do that. “Imagine if the principal suddenly becomes nicer.”
“…It gives me goosebumps.”
“yes? “There is no big difference.”
But even though Lee Han and Giselle were getting goosebumps, there wasn’t much they could do right now.
Even if Lee Han refuses in the first place, his crazy alter ego is not the type to listen.
“ah. “Then it will be difficult to help other friends.”
Lee Han remembered it later.
It’s not easy to teach your friends when your crazy alter ego is by your side helping them prepare for exams…
“Does not matter. Bring it with you. “The royal family will bestow teachings.”
“!?!”
This time Giselle was shocked by the even more unexpected words.
“W-what is it? “Why are you doing that?”
“I… I don’t know. “The reason I asked you guys to follow me in the first place was unexpected.”
Even if his friend asked, Lee Han had nothing to say in response.
Because Lee Han had no guesses at all!
‘I can’t do this. ‘I’ll have to ask.’
Earlier, Giselle tried to stop me from provoking her, but I was so curious that I couldn’t let her go.

Lee Han checked the defensive magic and asked a question.
“Master. But why did you ask me to bring my other friends?”
“For a wizard who is not yet complete, the need for companions cannot be denied. If it were your colleague, you could refine it a little more and make it a better person.”
“…!”
“!!!”
Not only Lee Han but even Giselle who was next to him were surprised by the reason why he was sober and thoughtful than expected.
I never thought I would recognize Lee Han’s friend as a colleague and raise him with mercy.
Caton gave me a look of respect.
‘As expected, like the principal’s alter ego, he seems unable to hide his love and care for his students!’
But the two cool-headed students were not fooled.
‘weird. Could it be that madness from a different direction has been expressed? Did the hamster play a trick? Should I go and interrogate him?’
‘I knew that Wodanaz was good at gathering crazy archmages like carnivorous plants, but I never thought it would be like this. He’s really crazy.’
…To be precise, only one cool-headed student was not fooled.
Lee Han tilted his head but accepted it for now.
If a crazy alter ego could show this kind of consideration, even if it was madness, it could be madness in a good direction.
I wondered if there was some positive madness, but anyway…
“Then was that the reason why you asked me to follow the White Tiger Tower friends behind me? “Because you’re my colleague?”
The crazy clone stopped walking.
Then he turned around and glanced at the White Tiger Tower students.
“They were colleagues?”
“yes? Yes… they are in the same grade as me.”
“I thought you were a servant, but you weren’t.”
“……”
“……”
The faces of the White Tiger Tower students rotted. Lee Han looked at his friends and quickly made an excuse.
“What nonsense are you talking about! “How are these people servants?”
“I thought you were a servant because you were acting like servants.”
“……”
This time, the faces of the White Tiger Tower students turned red.
It was definitely in a shabby shape due to some mining work.
“Well, I used to be a bit more dignified…!”
“That was only the last time, Wodanaz! “Say it well!”
‘Tell me something. ‘You bastards.’
Lee Han was dumbfounded, but they were still friends.
“They are all excellent wizards because they like to use their bodies. “No, Master, you said you were a wizard earlier.”
“You can be a wizard and a servant. A servant must be able to not only do chores but also serve as an escort. “Disciple, what are you talking about?”
‘The ancient times were annoying.’
In ancient times, it seemed that servants were all-powerful.
Not only did I have to learn magic, but I also had to act as an escort when necessary.
“Not at all.”
“i get it. I was summoned as an escort for my student, but it was a royal mistake. “You can go back.”
“?”
The White Tiger Tower students paused.
And then he looked back.
We had already walked a long way from the safe area shown on the map.
If they had to go back to the portal alone…
“hmm. “It would be better to go back than to be mistreated by my teacher for no reason.”
Lee Han tried to send his friends away.
No matter how much I thought about it, it felt like my crazy alter ego would really rip my friends off even if I went with them.
Even so, the White Tiger Tower has pride, so there is no reason to go with it as a servant who can guard it…
“We will protect Wodanaz!”
“Just leave it to me!”
“……”
Lee Han looked at his friends speechless at their quick reactions.
Giselle must have been embarrassed and turned her gaze away.

“Do you know about the frost giants, juniors?”
Upon arriving at the frost giant area marked on the map, Caton moved with Lee Han and Giselle.
It was to contact and negotiate with the frost giants.
The crazy alter ego did not follow.
Normally, the archmage would not accompany each of these preliminary negotiations. The little things were always the disciple’s job.
“I heard that, unlike the giants, they have a prosperous civilization and wisdom.”
“That’s right. “The giants fell in the past, but this race from another dimension escaped that fall.”
The frost giants were able to avoid the fate of collapse experienced by the continent’s giants in ancient times by borrowing the distance of another dimension.
Thanks to this, menacing and powerful beings like the Frost Giant King were occasionally summoned to Einroguard to confront Lee Han.
‘Ugh. Why don’t the frost giants settle down on the continent…’
Lee Han lamented as he recalled the absurd past.
Coming face to face with the frost giant king was not an easy experience for even an Einrogard student.
And this confrontation did not just end.
Even after that, whenever you meet frost giants, you say, ‘Ugh. Are you a challenger facing the king? Because I had to hear things like, ‘Then I will take you down and take the glory!’
From Lee Han’s perspective, it was a truly absurd and evil relationship.
‘But there is a way.’
Lee Han checked again the frost giant king’s blue stone embedded in his staff, disguised as magic.
If only this was covered, there was no way for the Frost Giants to discover Lee Han’s identity.
It will just look like an ordinary human wizard.
“They are a strong and arrogant race. “Maybe we should get their approval first before negotiations.”
“How can I get it?”
“You will most likely have to pass the test. Junior. “Because they respect the strong.”
Lee Han and Giselle nodded with stern faces.
Caton waved his hand as if to tell him not to worry.
“I will take the test, so you juniors don’t have to worry. “If they want their juniors to take the test, I will persuade them.”
“…?”
Giselle tilted her head.
Does Caton, not even Wodanaz, have the magic tongue to persuade the frost giants?
“Is there a way to do that?”
“I’m sorry. Juniors. I said it wrong. “If you try to force your juniors to take the test, I will cut them down.”
Caton looked embarrassed and corrected his words.
While bragging in front of my juniors, I accidentally lied. Caton did not have the confidence to persuade the frost giant.
“……”
“……”
Of course, cutting it down left a much stronger impression on the juniors. Lee Han and Giselle straightened their posture.
“Seniors. “If there is something you don’t like when I explain magic, please feel free to let me know.”
“If your top juniors are rude, please tell us.”
“???”
Caton was puzzled when his juniors said something unexpected.
Why suddenly?
“I think this is enough… Honorable cold giants, listen! Caton of the Jahan family has come to speak with you! ”
-!
The frost giants quickly responded to the huge voice shaking the cliff.
thud!
A frost giant ranger jumped up from beneath the glacier. The frost giant looked around at the three and asked.
-One warrior and two wizards. Since you revealed your identity first, it appears that you are not an intruder.
“Three wizards. And I have come to negotiate with you.”
-Negotiation? Normally, we do not easily negotiate with outsiders. This is especially true if you are from another dimension.
“Since you say that, it seems there is a way.”
The frost giant grinned at Caton’s words.
The strength that radiated from his stance was like that, and that warrior seemed to know something.
-okay. There’s something we’re looking for.
“Are they your relics?”
-under! Is there any way to entrust something like that to a weak wizard from another dimension?
The frost giant laughed as if it was nonsense.
They had to find their relics on their own, not with the help of other weaker races.
“Then what are you looking for?”
-We are looking for a challenger recognized by the king! Surprisingly, they say he is a wizard from the same dimension as you. If you can find out his location, he will accept you as a guest.
“……”
Lee Han’s face turned slightly pale.
