Episode 614
“This is nonsense… This is nonsense…!”
There weren’t many wizards who experienced the sky falling.
Although it can be seen occasionally in Einrogard, it is generally rare for the sky to fall.
However, for young Alhi, today was an experience that felt like the sky was falling.
How does this happen?
“Hey, this is a trick! Trickery!”
Alhydeul, whose face was red, stood up and shouted.
As he was still young, there was a strong sense of anger in his attitude.
“I… Isn’t that senior a 5th year student?”
“I was a freshman until this year. Mr. Pengelin.
“Well… then… then that senior is at the top of his year! There is absolutely no way it could be normal!”
“!”
‘no?’
Principal Skeleton and Lee Han were surprised by the sharp comments made by Alhi.
As expected from a guy who was rumored to be excellent in his family, he did not have an average brain.
“It’s not?”
However, the shamelessness of the skeleton principal was one level higher.
Lee Han was embarrassed and avoided his gaze, but the skeleton principal continued speaking without blinking.
“What about the chief? A student like this guy in Einrogard rolls around like a stone on the side of the road. Right, Wardanaz?”
“……”
“stop! Alhiidl. “It’s a shame!”
Fortunately, the old penguin Suin got angry instead of Lee Han.
“You’re blaming others for your shortcomings! “Since when did the blood of the Pengelin family become so vile?”
“Well, that’s not true… I think he’s definitely not an ordinary senior…”
“How dare you ignore the words of Master Gonadaltes! “You can’t even follow the fame that Gonadaltes has built up!”
The old penguin trembled with his beak and reprimanded them.
The Alhi people lowered their heads and were embarrassed.
‘No, can I do this?’
Lee Han sent a look to the skeleton principal to try to stop him.
However, the skeleton principal was nodding his head as if his praise was very valid.
Do more!
“……”
“S-sorry. “I was wrong.”
“It’s not just your fault. Everyone in our family was at fault. Just because someone is a relative, they overestimate their talent. Mr. Gonadaltes. Please, please. Please take this talentless guy to Einroguard and train him! “If you do that, I will consider it an honor to the family.”
“haha. Of course, I came with that intention in mind.”
The Skeleton Headmaster spoke like the most good archmage in the world.
“Mr. Pengelin. Even if you don’t have talent, don’t worry too much. “If I enter Einrogard and study hard, I might be able to become like your ordinary senior here.”
“principal. Please do your best.”
Lee Han excitedly whispered to the skeleton principal who was teasing Alhi.
Even so, I felt a little sorry for him as he was a junior.
“Sun… senior. “I apologize for my rudeness earlier.”
Not knowing what the two were talking about, Alhyde approached hesitantly.
When I came to my senses, I realized how rude what I had said earlier was.
“I was wrong.”
“…no. “I don’t care at all.”
Lee Han quickly comforted the child.
My conscience was pricked too much to just leave it alone.
“And your skills were great enough. “If you enter Einrogard, you will achieve great things.”
“no! “There is no need to comfort me like that.”
The Alhi people shook their heads vigorously.
I felt this for sure after what happened today.
That he had been deceived within the Pengelin family!
“I still have a lot to do. “I will study harder until I enroll, no, even after I enroll, and I will definitely reach the level you showed me today.”
“Uh… um… no…”
Lee Han was about to say, ‘There is no one like that among my friends,’ but stopped.
“Please remember me. certainly! “I will definitely come back to see you again!”
“…Did I by any chance mention my family name?”
Lee Han wondered if ‘My name is Gainando’ would work even now.
But it was already too late.
As Alhi and others returned full of motivation, Lee Han sighed.
“I don’t know if it will come back later.”
“Then I should be thankful that I studied hard thanks to you.”
“……”
‘I really want to hit you just once.’
* * *
…Lee Han, what on earth did I do so wrong to be like this? Of course I didn’t study black magic books! But it’s vacation! I’m going to really study from now on, so don’t do anything like this! okay? You really shouldn’t do something like this again! How can this happen! Is it such a big sin that I didn’t study a bit!?…
“You bastard. “You can’t believe you got angry because you didn’t study.”

“?”
Eandurde, who was next to me, looked up from reading <History of the Imperial Guild>.
Lee Han waved his hand as if it was nothing.
“Junior. It’s not your story, so don’t worry. Among my friends, there is one who doesn’t study. “But why do I get angry again?”
“Big felonies!”
“yes. It’s a very serious crime. Are you smart? “Have a cookie.”
The junior was excited and ate the cookie.
“execution!”
“It’s not like the death penalty. But please have one more cookie.”
The junior mumbled and started reading the book again.
Lee Han shook his head at the scandalous letter Gainando sent.
I can’t believe you weren’t studying black magic books. He was a very unpleasant guy.
…Gainando. When I meet you at school after vacation, if you haven’t studied, I will tell you in advance all the events in the magazines you read… No negotiation or compromise is possible… Unless you answer at least 19 out of the 20 questions I will give you correctly…
After finishing his reply, Lee Han opened the letter from Yoner.
…Lee Han. I received your letter well. I’m doing well now. really. Nilia also asked me to say hello. The signature form you prepared was really helpful. Nilia is also working on a letter right now, but her handwriting is bad so she wants to practice some more. Yoanen is looking for you, so it would be best to avoid the workshop for a while. When she’s looking for someone like that, she’s usually trying to make things worse. Don’t be fooled by the good pay…
‘The pay is good?’
Lee Han immediately felt the urge to leave the headmaster’s work behind and run to the workshop.
What if other alchemists take his place while Lee Han is away?
…really. I think that business needs a little more improvement. Some sponsors become violent when they fail…
Lee Han nodded in response to his friend.
‘You’re saying we need to secure military power.’
…and this is a slightly different story, but you didn’t have anything to write in the letter so you just pasted the same content, right? When I was talking with Nilia, I saw some of the same content. If it’s something like that, it doesn’t have to be formal, so there’s no need to paste it…
“!!”
Lee Han was surprised.
…Yoner. I received a good reply. I recommend magic to Nilia. <Level Controller> If you learn the spells well, you can write a large number of letters even with bad handwriting without your arms getting tired. Or, it would be a good idea to get another scribe. I do that too when I have to write a lot of letters.
Thanks for the advice on how to do business. It would be better to secure a little more force to prevent the sponsors from acting violently.
And the fact that the content feels the same is a complete coincidence. Since I was writing about recent events in a formal manner, I guess there was a bit of overlap. Don’t misunderstand…
‘I guess I shouldn’t send letters to Nilia from now on.’
Lee Han made a cruel promise and opened the next letter.
…When the weather gets cold and it snows, this anecdote comes to mind. One hundred and twenty years ago, the wizard Oloede said…
‘…Who sent it?’
Lee Han was surprised by the content of the letter, which was written much more densely than the prescribed format.
It was written so densely that I couldn’t even feel the spacing.
-Aden Arth, the bloodline of the empire
“……”
Lee Han was speechless at the unexpected person.
I had no idea that the princess would talk so much in the letter.
…I think we can learn a lot from the fact that all the problems have been resolved. Now that I think about it, I remember the meat pie I made the other day. It was truly an excellent dish. Even if I asked the chef, I couldn’t get the taste out of it. Oh, while I was writing the letter, I received it first. I will read and finish writing…
‘It hurts my eyes.’
Lee Han read it and put it down with a frown.
Roughly speaking, it seemed like there was a lot of useless content in the back as there was a lot of useless content in the front.
I’ll have to read it next time!
…I received your letter well. Thank you for your letter. But if there is one thing I want to tell you, the reason I stole the bread from the White Tiger Tower students was to return the bread to my friends because they stole it first. Do you know? You should never misunderstand. ..

After finishing work in the capital and taking a short rest, Lee Han and his party set off again.
It was to meet students from all over the empire, excluding the capital, who needed to meet face-to-face.
In the flying carriage, Alcicle tried to tell Lee Han’s junior the ‘history of the Pengerin family’.
“So, the Pengelin family prevented the rebellion of the Beaver Beasts at this time and earned the title of imperial noble.”
“What did you do after that?”
“After that… well… I didn’t do anything in particular, but that’s the same for other families…”
“When the Wardanaz family suffered a major drought in the western part of the empire due to a backflow of magical energy, the head of the family moved the entire sea water, drained the salt, and created a reservoir?”
“……”
Alcicle never expected to be caught off guard by such a novice.
“Wow… the Wardanaz family is strange!”
“Alsicle…”
“Oh, no. “It’s not that you’re strange…”
The skeleton principal, whose eyes were closed, spoke as if it were pitiful.
“How can you literally lose to a guy who didn’t even enroll?”
“I didn’t know I learned this much…!”
“Tsk tsk. “Your excuse is really ugly.”
Lee Han, who was watching the rapidly passing scenery below, noticed the Northern Great Mountains in the distance and asked.
“Wait, the new student is in the Northern Mountains?”
“no. “It’s at the bottom of the mountain range.”
‘phew.’
Lee Han breathed a sigh of relief.
I didn’t want to go into the mountains and encounter the Shadow Patrol.
Aside from the fact that the Shadow Patrol members are a bit of a nuisance, there are lies they have told…
widely-
As the carriage reached the basin and disembarked, a group of people came up from down the road.
It was a shadow patrol.
“!!!”
“Greetings from the servant in the shadows. Excellency Gonadaltes. Do you ever want to visit the mountains?”
“no. “I didn’t come to visit the mountain range today.”
Principal Skeleton accepted the shadow patrol’s welcome with a familiarity.
From that look, Lee Han realized that the skeleton principal had not been here once or twice.
In fact, even hunters operating in one of the poorest mountain ranges in the empire would need magical powers.
And there weren’t many imperial wizards who could help in places like this.
“Then I will leave now. “Please call us if you need us.”
“okay. “Thank you.”
“really. “Is our young hunter doing well?”
“You are doing very well. “I’m excited about the future.”
“thank you! We’d be cautious about bragging about our hunter, but he’s truly an amazing guy. “This time, I went to see a friend to work on the homework he had specially assigned me, and he didn’t bother me one bit.”
“oh. principal. Those are the knights over there! and! “There are even knights here!”
Lee Han naturally changed the topic. The skeleton principal answered without noticing.
“These are knights near the northern mountain range. “I guess they also covet new students.”
“Oh my! “They are scandalous knights.”
“Knights are basically ungrateful and disgusting people.”
“I agree!”
The Shadow Patrol continued to nod their heads.
I don’t know who that little boy was, but he was a boy who only said the truth.
