Episode 992
‘I don’t think so.’
Yoner thought to himself as he opened the tower door with the key.
The door of the tower, locked in the dark, opened with a clanging sound, and warm air from the workshop flowed out.
“The professor won’t be there, right?”
“During this time, you take care of the cacti in the Einrogard Desert. “Let’s go in.”
The friend’s thoroughness in understanding the professor’s schedule by the hour surprised even Guyando.
“How does Lee Han memorize all that?”
“You memorize every letter of the wizard card, too.”
“W-Why is that coming out?”
While the two were talking in the background, Lee Han quickly checked from the first floor.
Even if there is no professor, you cannot let down your guard inside the Magic Tower.
I had to check first for border magic or traps that had been added without my knowledge.
‘There is none.’
Lee Han clicked his tongue inwardly.
It was because of the professor’s complacency.
No matter how much you trust your students and entrust them with the keys, you still have such a complacent sense of security.
‘The professor is also very sloppy.’
Of course, thanks to him, I was able to brush it off with ease, but this was one thing and my duty as a disciple was another.
Lee Han, checking his surroundings, found an envelope with a letter lying on the table. Surprisingly, the font written on it looked quite familiar.
‘…for a moment. ‘It’s a letter from Professor Bagrek, right?’
Lee Han was surprised in many ways.
First, I was surprised that Professor Boladi wrote the letter, and I was also surprised that it was written to Professor Thunderwalk.
Normally, like a loyal student, he was supposed to keep his professors’ secrets, but unfortunately, the letter came out of the envelope and was spread out on the table. This was also due to Professor Thunderstruck’s complacency.
‘Professor too. You’re really sloppy. ‘I can’t help it.’
Lee Han held onto the letter so as not to drop it and accidentally read its contents.
capital. emergency. call. Prince Gonadaltes. Please exchange lectures.
Boladi Bagrek
“????”
Lee Han, who thought it was a password for a moment, realized it too late.
‘ah. So, you’re saying that the principal urgently called you from the capital and left?’
As is, this was surprising.
Some professors are already in the capital with the skeleton headmaster, and even Professor Boladi?
‘…Has there been a rebellion in the capital??’
Lee Han did not understand.
Why do so many Einrogard professors have to gather in the capital?
If I didn’t know the emperor’s race, I would have wondered if the skeleton headmaster was really going to rebel.
‘It’s probably not because Jo Woo-rin had an accident.’
Lee Han, who was feeling uneasy, quickly shook his head.
It was before that that the skeleton principal and professors went to the capital. Jo Woo-rin’s escape could not have been the cause.
…maybe!
‘Rather than that, what is this lecture exchange? It’s not like he’s going to change the lecture later because the class is canceled.’
Lee Han, who did not realize that he had inadvertently guessed the correct answer, fell into trouble.
Someone who was in a hurry to go to the capital wouldn’t have been leisurely worrying about canceling classes…
“Lee Han?”
“sorry. Nothing.”
Lee Han woke up from his troubles to the voices of his friends.
Professor Boladi had gone to the capital, and they had to do their job.
In some ways, it could have been luck.
If Professor Boladi and his crazy alter ego were lecturing together…
“……”
Lee Han felt goosebumps rising at the sight of the creepy composition just imagining it.
“Lee Han is strange. “Did you happen to be under magic?”
“But the potions and scents here have no effect on Lee Han…”
As Gaynando and Yoner whispered, Ihan waved his hand as if he was sorry.
“sorry. It’s really okay. “I was just surprised to hear that Professor Bagrek had gone to the capital.”
“omg. “Has Professor Mortum gone too???”
“no.”
“Hmph.”
Gaynando became sullen.
Why wasn’t Professor Mortum invited to this too?
“Rather than that, we need to check what Professor Thunderstruck was doing. “Can you both help me?”
The friends nodded.
The three carefully approached the workshop area used by Professor Thunderstruck and began to deduce clues.
“High-quality paper, water bottle, brush, tobacco leaves, acacia tree sap… What kind of magic is this, Lee Han?”
“…That was just something the professor used to make cigarettes.”
“ah.”
Gainando grumbled.

Why do they make cigarettes by hand in the workshop area to confuse people?
“I think you used poison atoll grass.”
“You created two new elixirs…”
Still, thanks to the presence of gifted students from both alchemy schools, the clue deduction progressed quickly.
The two took out the ingredients and potions they had used recently, and also took out the ones they thought they would use in the lecture.
“Maybe the cockatrice dog is for teaching purposes?”
“That’s for lecture purposes. “I heard it was written in a 4th grade lecture.”
‘I asked for no reason…’
Yoner regretted it and drew a line on the paper with a quill pen.
After learning about the unfortunate future, I felt more unhappy than I thought.
“Yu Hong (硫汞), the wing feathers of a three-year-old crow.”
“The cries of the thunderbird, the claws of the Ghoul giant.”
“Crystal golem core, evil mushroom, mandragora…”
“…Dansha, wait a minute. Isn’t this Arlkhan’s spiritual festival??”
Yoner shouted in surprise.
I was able to recognize it first as it was a production method created by the ancestors of the family.
Yoner took out the Secret Book of Arlkhan that he usually carried with him and quickly turned the pages and compared them.
“I think that’s right?”
“sorry. Yoner. I know well about <The Makein Family’s Sweet Pan Chocolate> and <The Maken Family’s Magical Chocolate Eclair>, but I’m not familiar with Youngjeol…”
“…Yeah, yeah.”
Usually, people didn’t know much about chocolate or eclairs, but Joner was not embarrassed and started explaining.
“It’s poison. “It’s a poison that works toward the soul…”
It was a terrible poison that literally severed the connection between souls forever.
Even if the flesh or blood had high poison resistance, it was not easy to withstand this poison.
‘Why did you make this?’
Lee Han wondered why Professor Thunderstruck created this poison.
Gainando shouted in fear.
“By any chance, wasn’t it made to target Lee Han? “I was angry because Lee Han wasn’t working well…”
“……”
“…no. This won’t work well on Lee Han either. “If your magic power is high, accessing the soul system will not work.”
‘Can’t I deny it in another way?’
Lee Han thought to himself, but remained silent.
The most likely hypothesis was that it was created by Professor Thunderstruck to deal with his crazy alter ego.
The crazy alter ego gave a nonsensical command, and the thunderous professor, who thought he couldn’t do anything, gave poison…
“…First of all, I just need to find out the antidote. Yoner. “Would you like to show me the secret book?”
“here.”
“thank you.”
Yoner wasn’t the type to hide things like this, but even taking that into account, handing over the family’s secret book so readily wasn’t easy without trust in his friend.
Lee Han expressed his gratitude and accepted the book.
“……”
“……”
“…Leehan, aren’t you looking at how to make chocolate eclairs right now?”
“S-sorry. So extraordinary… indeed. Raspberries were the secret. “I was only thinking about custard cream…”
“If you’re curious, I’ll show you later, so look at the antidote part.”
Yoner urged his friend in a slightly annoyed voice.
I was honestly proud to admire the family’s vision, but I couldn’t believe that I was staring at the recipe for making eclairs in a situation like this.
Even though cooking is a part of alchemy…!
“thank you. Yoner. Confirmed.”
“Are you going to make it?”
“…I guess I have to make it anyway.”
Lee Han said with a heavy expression.
It was unclear whether Professor Thunderwalk would actually use poison or not, but Lee Han, the student of both wizards, needed to prepare.
“Then let’s get the ingredients. “It’s hard to make this with what’s in the warehouse.”
“Lee Han. Lee Han!”
“But then you’ll be caught for visiting here.”
“…Lee Han! hey! Yoner!”
“Should I do what my seniors did?”
“Look here!!”
As the two ignored each other and talked, Gainando stamped his foot. Only then did they realize that her friend was calling and looked away.
“What’s going on?”
“Isn’t this the antidote the professor made?”
“……”
Lee Han checked the potion bottle that Guy Nando was holding and shaking. Surprisingly, the antidote was correct.
“Where did you find this???”
“The professor left it on the table where he was making cigarettes.”
“…It’s not something we should say, but aren’t you being too lax, Professor?”
Ihan unconsciously nodded at Yoner’s words.

“Master. Even if someone offers you something to drink or eat, you must not eat it.”
“…Are you out of your mind?”
morning.
<Languages of the Empire that become blood and flesh> The crazy alter ego who was heading to the lecture room with me looked at me and asked, ‘Why on earth is my student like this?’
Although he was usually a difficult student to predict, today’s remarks were truly difficult. I couldn’t even guess what he meant.
“I hear there’s a trend going around in Einrogard these days of poisoning food and drinks.”
Even as he said this, Lee Han thought it was too much bullshit. But surprisingly, the crazy alter ego nodded.
“I guess that’s possible. It’s a common occurrence among wizards. Disciple, you may not have been born to worry about poison, but you still must not let your guard down.”
“…yes!”
While they were talking, Oripulas, a demon who had been serving as an imperial praetor for 132 years, walked from the other side.
A reliable helper who helps with lectures along with the professor…
Ahhhhh! no! no! I haven’t done anything wrong yet!
Oripulas suddenly screamed and tried to run in the other direction.
Of course, the shackles of the contract did not leave the devil alone. Professor Rosine was surprised when the devil, who was trying to escape, was caught in the contract and started screaming.
“Why are you doing this? “You know you can’t run away anyway!”
The devil didn’t give up. He inflicted a strong blow on himself and was temporarily recalled.
“……”
“……”
When Lee Han looked at him in bewilderment, his crazy alter ego responded as if it didn’t matter.
“After all, there is a royal family, so why do you need advice from the devil? “It’s actually a good thing.”
“…sorry. professor.”
“Oh, no. Student Lee Han. “I also had no idea that Justice Oripulas would disappear like that.”
“Demons sometimes do strange things, right?”
Lee Han answered shamelessly.
Professor Rosine gave him a scolding look, asking, ‘Are you really saying that?’, but Lee Han pretended not to see it.
Meanwhile, the crazy alter ego quickly entered the classroom. The second-year students, who were already accustomed to it, greeted us politely.
“hello. Archmage.”
“Uh, where is the demon praetor?”
When someone asked a question, Lee Han answered in a low voice.
“Master will help you today.”
“…Wardanaz, if this trend continues, all other professors may disappear within two weeks!”
The friends whispered excitedly.
Wardanaz said it was a coincidence, but it was a clear fact that the number of professors was decreasing this semester.
If there were just a little more of that principal, this year might really be a pleasant year with only Einrogard students…
“Has the esoteric geometry you talked about last time brought you enlightenment?”
“……”
The students all fell silent and quietly avoided eye contact. The crazy alter ego showed his displeasure at the foolish achievements of his disciple’s colleagues.
“I can’t believe it’s like this even though we gave it more than a day. “The disciple learned it on the spot.”
“no…!”
Lee Han tried to silence his crazy alter ego.
Now the teacher was trying to socially bury Lee Han among his friends!
