Episode 1204
No matter how much I thought about it, it wasn’t the kind of killing intent that would come out in a normal situation.
“Why are you asking that, Lee Han? If you think about what’s to come, it’s only natural to ask where Professor Koo is.”
“Yeah, that’s true.”
Lee Han felt a little more pressured by the murderous intent. The hamster whispered next to him.
– Keep your distance. It’s dangerous!
‘I want to tell you not to talk nonsense, but it’s hard to deny.’
Although he wanted to pretend not to know and reveal Professor Kirmin’s location, Lee Han was not cold-blooded enough to sacrifice the professor and pretend not to know.
Above all, it was most likely Lee Han’s fault.
“Well, actually, Professor Garcia. If you’re upset because Professor Koo left without saying anything… Actually, it was me who did it.”
Stop-
Professor Garcia’s movements, which were trying to track Professor Kirmin’s location with magic, stopped.
Then he slowly turned his gaze and looked at Lee Han. Lee Han felt a greater sense of fear than when he had faced the evil spirit.
“Why, Lee Han?”
“yes?”
“Why didn’t you tell me and only told Professor Koo?”
Professor Garcia’s voice was filled with regret.
But… No, Professor Garcia was a kind-hearted person who could do other professors’ chores without complaint, but he had one pride that he could not compromise on.
That was the intimacy with the students.
At least, he was proud that among the professors at Ain Rogard, there was no one who was as close to the students as he was.
Especially in the case of Lee Han, he was like a direct disciple who had been directly taught space-time magic, which was extremely rare even in the empire, by Professor Garcia, so to be ignored like this…
‘Ugh.’
Lee Han felt a deep sense of guilt at the sight of Professor Garcia. It seemed that it would have been better if he had felt fear instead.
Were you just going to sacrifice Professor Kirmin?
The honest reason was that I thought Professor Garcia would be too worried, but this reason seemed to hurt more.
“Student Lee Han?”
“Teacher, professor…”
Lee Han, who was cornered, spoke before he thought.
“…I didn’t call you because you’re not an expert in magical combat.”
“……”
-……
The passing death knights looked at Lee Han as if he were crazy.
‘Has the successor lost his mind?’
‘Shh. Think about what you’ve been through this year. It wouldn’t be strange if you were starting to feel mad.’
No matter what, there will be people who will make the outrageous remark that Professor Garcia looks weak.
It was surprising even for the veteran knights.
Professor Garcia also blinked in amazement.
I knew the reasons would come out as overprotection or worrying too much, but I never expected this to come out as an excuse.
“I, I… didn’t receive any combat magic training…”
“Yes. I was trained by Professor Bagreg, and Professor Kirmin is also an expert in magical duels. I thought only trained experts were allowed to attend.”
Lee Han, who had given up on himself, decided to just push through shamelessly.
Since it had come to this, it was better to be stubborn.
“So, student Lee Han… student Lee Han can attend… but I wasn’t invited because it was dangerous?”
The Death Knights asked with their eyes, ‘Are you really going to answer?’
Lee Han answered without changing his expression.
“yes!”
Professor Garcia was starting to get confused.
I was confused as to whether my disciple was being sincere or being unreasonable.
There was not a shred of emotional turmoil or bewilderment visible on the disciple’s chiseled face.
‘…Did I, did I look that weak!?’
Professor Garcia suddenly became self-conscious.
Come to think of it, from Lee Han’s perspective, the wizards he usually saw were people like Professor Voladi, Professor Kirmin, and Headmaster Skeleton.
Compared to these wizards, a non-expert like Professor Garcia would inevitably look a bit awkward in battle.
But still, isn’t it not to the extent that you wouldn’t call it that?
I thought I did my part…
Taking advantage of Professor Garcia’s confusion, Lee Han quickly left his seat.
It seemed like I had to somehow run away until the expedition was over.
* * *
Give me the key, disciple of Osu.
Lee Han handed the bloody key to the Yaksha King. The Yaksha King grabbed the key and opened the dimensional gate.
“Is there any chance that it could be a trap?”
If he had been in such a rational state, it is highly likely that he would not have spoken to him in the first place. Oh Soo’s disciple.
The dimensional crack widened with a cracking sound. The Yaksha King’s strength was truly amazing, and he was able to grab hold of the dimension and pull it apart.
The dimensional landscape seen beyond was truly ominous and unstable.
The crimson sky was constantly swirling, creating strange meteorological phenomena, and beneath it were ruined temples.
Some temples were rebuilt from broken weapons, but they ended up in ruins. The dead nearby cried out in anger at the sight of the ruins.
As expected, that guy can’t control his power.
Lee Han, who had entered the dimension, stood next to the professors and tried to listen quietly.

With so many strong people and experts, it’s overwhelming just to listen and follow along.
However, the Yaksha King was always the one who knew best what Yi Han hated.
Disciple of Osu. Come forward. Why are you hiding behind?
“It’s not that I’m hiding…”
If you are resenting me for pointing out my deep respect for my teacher, then you are wrong.
“I’ll go right now!”
Lee Han ran out and stood next to the Yaksha King.
I was afraid that if I delayed, this author would come up with some nonsense that would upset me even more.
The Yaksha King stretched out his large fingers, encased in red-hot golden gloves, and began to explain.
The fact that such irregular weather is occurring is evidence that the state of the owner of that area is likely unstable. Disciple of Osu.
“Oh, yes.”
Look at that ruined temple. It’s a sign that the recent losses suffered by the domain’s masters are quite significant.
If you don’t enjoy ruins, then the ruins are most likely the result of a recent defeat suffered by the domain’s master.
In fact, those temple ruins were being rebuilt over and over again, but they kept failing. It was clear that the losses were significant.
“indeed.”
Those dead people are the same. They wander around like vagabonds because their masters are not supporting them properly. You can figure out the master of a dimension with just this simple observation.
“That’s great.”
There will be a lot of this in the future, so don’t forget to practice.
“Yes… Yes??”
Lee Han, who had been answering vaguely in a soulless voice, shouted in shock.
Disciple of Osu. The reason he accepted twice is probably because he had that much motivation.
As soon as the opportunity arose, the Yaksha King began to analyze Lee Han’s psychology.
This yaksha has always been curious and is good at explaining and unraveling the labyrinthine psychology of mortals.
You probably felt it too. As is the family’s karma, there will definitely be times when you will have to deal with enemies from different dimensions…
“The second answer was something I asked, not something I accepted.”
indeed.
The Yaksha King nodded. Lee Han felt embarrassed at the sight of his opponent meekly backing down.
He’s not the kind of person to back down like this…
But, disciple of Oh Soo, if you wanted to ask, you could have just asked right away… The fact that you insisted on saying ‘yes’ first means that your subconscious is that motivated.
“…That’s right. Just explain it to me.”
In the end, Lee Han gave up.
This yaksha, who possessed overwhelming strength in both power and status, was impossible to deal with. It felt like a giant rock was rolling towards me.
The Death Knights looked at me with pity.
If it were ordinary mortals, they might not know, but this Yaksha King was such a big shot that they couldn’t force him on them.
It’s only because the successor likes the other person that they are having such an intimate conversation. Originally, there would have been no conversation at all.
The Yaksha King was not such a talkative being.
Now, disciple of Osu. How do you plan to conquer this area?
“…?!”
Lee Han was even more surprised by the unexpected question.
Currently, Lee Han’s status in this expedition was only higher than that of Lee Bin-ta, a thief who had been suddenly brought in to act as a servant.
Knights, professors, angels, etc. were all stronger or wiser than Yihan.
But you ask yourself how to attack.
‘Didn’t the principal call you over to take charge of the strategy in the first place?’
It was absurd, but he didn’t know how he would be harassed again if he ignored the answer. Lee Han answered as best he could.
“First of all, I think I’ll move to find the place where the enemy’s forces are the most prosperous, and if not, to find the place where the magical energy is the strongest…”
Since he also took classes in summoning magic, Lee Han had quite a bit of knowledge about dimensional science.
There are tips for how to behave when visiting an unfamiliar dimension with no map or information.
When you need to conquer a dimension, go to where the enemy is strong. When you need to leave a dimension, go to where the enemy is weak.
Hmm, hmm. I see. Then which area do you think is the strongest?
“The temple ruins over there look strong…”
Okay. Go ahead and take care of it.
“???”
Lee Han looked around for a moment.
Of course, there was no one else like that. The Yaksha King gave orders only to Yi Han.
“Is it just me?”
Yes, that’s right.
“…Can I ask why?”
Because he faced the evil spirit. A disciple of Osu.
The Yaksha King explained seriously.
Lee Han was the only one who received the key given by the evil spirit, and this was not a fact to be taken lightly.
What if the evil spirit invited only Lee Han?
In that case, there was no need for hasty provocation. It was advantageous to appease them until they had figured out all the dimensional paths and discovered the enemy’s heart.
“……”
The most painful moments for Lee Han were when he couldn’t magically refute his opponent.
Why is it that only unlucky people say things that are magically correct?
-I really envy you, King of Wisdom. Could I come with you?
Angel Apasragon showed rare emotion.
This seeker, walking the path of the old wizards, seemed truly born with destiny.
No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t find a clue to the hardships, but for this wizard, the hardships of the world came naturally to him.
No, my lord. Be thankful for your good fortune. You have already been blessed with more than enough.
-I’m sorry, King of Wisdom. I was short-sighted.
‘If I really become a great wizard later on, I’ll beat them all up.’
Lee Han stepped forward with a steady pace, steeling his resolve inwardly.
The Death Knight, who had been watching the distant figure of his successor with sadness, cautiously opened his mouth.
-Your Majesty, I have something to tell you.
What is it?
-I’m not trying to disparage the King’s opinion… but the current state of the evil spirit is not rational, and if a wizard says that it is not a skill to command a powerful being, then isn’t that also absurd?
The knights wanted to step forward and help, even if it was just them.
Even though the Yaksha King and the professors were too obvious, it was not easy for summoners like them to figure out the master-servant relationship.
The Yaksha King nodded heavily after hearing the advice.
Hmm. I see.
-What do you think?
Let me think about it for a moment.
The Death Knights looked at the Yaksha King with a tense attitude. Finally, the Yaksha King opened his mouth.
It’s over.
-What decision…?
It doesn’t mean my troubles are over, it just means their fight is over.
The knights turned their heads at the words of the Yaksha King. From afar, Lee Han was returning with a tired face.
‘You’ve already taken them all down?!’
