â????â
The two White Tiger Top students were taken aback by their friendâs sudden question, but they came up with an answer.
âThere will be no good reactions. maybe.â
âNo matter how generous Professor Ingeldell is, I wonder if it would be bad to meet him. Lee Han.â
âhmm. Right. There is a high possibility that the Angrago gang are now playing in the forest after falling into the river.â
â?!â
They both struggled to believe how that could make sense.
âLee Han. Even though Anrago didnât like studying that much, he even skipped swordsmanship lecturesâ¦â
âTo fix the golem.â
âah. That makes sense. I understand.â
Durgyu immediately understood.
Anrago and his friends kept whining in the tower, âThe golem is broken, how can I fix it?â
It was to the point that Giselle could not stand it and wielded her twin swords.
âI guess I can just tell them to avoid it on their own. I donât want to see a professor who is angry for no reason.â
ââ¦how?â
âUh⦠do you guys have any means of communicating with each other? A secret mark or somethingâ¦â
In response to Lee Hanâs question, the two students looked at each other as if asking what bullshit they were talking about.
Why is there such a thing?
âAre you serious? Lee Han? Is there anything like that in the Blue Dragon Tower?â
âuh. Iâm learning it from a member of the Shadow Patrol. When entering a forest, leave a sign before entering.â
ââ¦â¦â
ââ¦â¦â
The two of them were overwhelmed by the unexpected madness.
Giselle made a vow to herself that she would ask the students of the White Tiger Tower to leave a mark like that in the future.
* * *
Angrago swung his wooden sword and cut down the bushes that blocked his path.
Kiihii-
âItâs a knife fly again?!â
âKeep down!â
An insect the size of a sparrow flew in with a sharp sound. The continuously oscillating wings were sharper than expected, and if hit incorrectly, they could inflict deeper wounds than the blade.
However, unlike before, the students of the White Tiger Tower had sharpened their senses through rigorous training.
As well as the quests carried out during the first semester and vacationâ¦
âBurn up!â
As the burning wooden sword passed by, the insect crashed.
âjoy. Compared to wordanazâs magic, youâre nothing.â
âhey. Do you really have to say that?â
âIâm sorry. even I did not know.â
ââ¦no. Iâm sorry.â
Anrago and his friends looked at each other passionately.
The strong friendship formed while dealing with the evil archmage could not be destroyed by a petty quarrel.
âIf you look at the map, itâs about thisâ¦â
âThe Black Turtle Tower guys didnât cheat, right? Those guys have no conscience.â
âno way. anyway Wodanaz does business with them too.â
ââ¦Wodhanaz is scared, so even if you canât cheat, canât you play tricks on us?â
ââ¦â¦â
Anrago suddenly began to feel suspicious about the forest map he was holding.
thud!
â!â
The students of the White Tiger Tower were stunned.
A heavy sound echoed from within the forest.
ââ¦what?â
âBe careful. Stay strong!â
âSound. Ring in my ears.â
The students of the White Tiger Tower raised their guard by casting reinforcement magic.
The students of the other towers made sarcastic remarks, saying, âThey join the knights if they are going to fight with their bodies. Why did they join Ein Lorgard?â
In particular, in the case of strengthening magic, where a seasoned sense of the body is essential, the progress was faster than other top students.
The magic she had cast just now wasnât as high-level as the comprehensive strengthening magic like , but even this level was quite effective.
â¦And the side effects of that magic wordanaz cast were too hard.
âI canât see itâ¦â
The White Tiger Tower students walked forward nervously.
It was a scene that Lee Han would have lamented if he had seen it.
There is a strange sound, but if the identity of the enemy is not visible, you should search and collect information in as many ways as possible.
And that complacency soon paid off.
Poof!
A thick tree branch rose from the ground, grabbed the ankles of the White Tiger Tower students and lifted them upside down.
â!!!!â
âItâs a ghost tree!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
A monster in which an evil demon moves in a form combined with a tree rather than a spiritual body.
The âthumpâ I heard earlier was clearly the sound of a tree waking up.
âBurn up⦠Kut!â
The staff fell from the hand of the White Tiger Tower student who was about to cast the spell.
The monster instinctively felt the mana and gave it strength to subdue it.
Left alone, Angrago fell into conflict.
âNow all I can do isâ¦â
Angrago suddenly thought of Wodanaz.
What would you have said if you had Wardanaz?
-If you canât catch it by yourself, you should call in support. What are you doing?
âMy friends! If youâre waiting for supportâ¦â
âAngo! Save me quickly!â
âWhat are you doing! Come on!â
ââ¦Oh no. Supportâ¦â
âWhat are you talking about! Are you going to leave it!?â
ââ¦shit. Goes!!â
Anrago changed his mind and grabbed his weapon.
But I couldnât help but feel uncomfortable in a corner of my heart.
* * *
âLee Han. So what should I do in a situation like now where there are no signs?â
âuh?â
Lee Han looked at Therugyu as if asking what he was talking about.
Durgyu was a little taken aback.
âDid I say something strange?â
âIf youâre right⦠then didnât Angrago and his friends go into the forest first? I think we should contact him as soon as possible and let him come out. The professor might get angry, and most of all, skipping lectures isnât the right thing to do.â
Durgyu pondered over the method he could use now.
If youâre a wizard of this level, you might be able to send a paper bird or a tamed pigeonâ¦
âI canât do that?â
âCanât you? Then, is there any other way?â
âNo.â
ââ¦isnât there?â
Lee Han nodded. Durgyu was speechless and narrowed his eyes.
âDurgyu. I appreciate that you rate me highly, but Iâm not good at all magic. With no signs or a way to contact you, what you need to do now is something else.â
âwhichâ¦?â
âEven if those children are found, they insist that they do not know. In that respect, I have an advantage as the Blue Dragon Tower, but you two will have to cut it down quickly.â
ââ¦â¦â
Durgyu opened his mouth in embarrassment, but Giselle agreed.
âThatâs right. There is no need to take joint responsibility for nothing.â
âDurgyu. The living must live. You donât need to get deducted for nothing.â
âOh noâ¦â
âWhat are you all doing there?â
While talking, Professor Ingeldell, who had gone ahead, called the three. Lee Han and Giselle immediately responded.
âIâm leaving now!â
âCome up. really. Wodanaz. I was contacted by the Beech Knights and was very surprised. What did you do to be praised so much?â
ââ¦I think itâs because the knights of the Beech Tree Order are kind.â
âI donât think they were like thatâ¦â
Professor Ingeldell tilted his head.
puck!
âevil!â
â!â
One of the students in front of me screamed and fell over.
A human-sized wooden doll protruded from the side holding a weapon.
âProfessor Kyo! There is a weirdo!â
âah. It was prepared for todayâs lecture.â
ââ¦The four are surrounded!!!â
Another student belatedly realized the situation and screamed.
He realized that Professor Ingeldell had not just put one up, but packed them all around the forest.
âDonât fight with force, use the terrain to fight cleverly. Fighting in the woods is different from fighting in the open.â
Professor Ingeldell gave his students some advice.
The fight in the forest, where the bushes and branches are tightly packed and the slopes and stones can bind your feet at any time, was a fight against yourself.
Only a swordsman who could conserve his stamina, calm down his excitement, calmly grasp the surrounding landmarks, and use the situation flexibly could fight for a long time in the forest⦠âThis way
! Break through the siege and get out!â
âDrill sideways!â
âDisperse! Scatter!!â
Professor Ingeldell was taken aback for the first time in a long time when he saw the students scattered in groups of threes and threes and trying to break through the encirclement and run away.
âOh no. If we all fight togetherâ¦â
I prepared for everyone to fight in the forest, but youâre trying to leave the other friends behind?
Professor Ingeldell did not know that the students who had been beaten by Headmaster Skull were used to this kind of situation.
When you fall into a siege of unknown scale, the most strategic choice is not to fight together and get caught, but to survive as many as possible by scattering!
âprofessor. sorry.â
Lee Han, of course, knew the reason, so as soon as the wooden doll appeared, he broke through the siege to the shallowest place.
âSpace, be aware! Durgyu. Come this way! Moradi! It might be weak over there!â
âIsnât it time to do some tricks!â
Giselle burst into anger. He was acting in vain.
Who are you going to use as bait now!
Itâs normal to feel embarrassed if youâre caught, but Lee Han didnât blink an eye.
He shouted while looking at the other White Tiger Tower students.
âI see that the other side is weak!â
âthanks! Wodanaz⦠kuck!â
âletâs go!â
Lee Han, who shook the siege by sending another student first, hurriedly ran out.
As the wooden dolls rushed at him, Lee Han drew out his wooden sword and chanted.
âStay in the cold!â
The strength of cold magic was that it could inflict damage on the opponent even if it did not receive a direct hit.
Frost swung around and stopped the wooden dollâs feet.
In the open space in front, Lee Han thought he was good.
âDrilled!â
There were still many wooden dolls left, but the distance was far and there were many scattered students.
If you subdue the other students first,
you will subdue them. I should have thought of it like a real game.â
Professor Ingeldellâs serious voice came from behind.
Lee Han suddenly became anxious.
It was rare that ordinary professors were serious about it.
Poo!
A wave of powerful magical power spread out with the sound of a scroll tearing.
And the number of wooden dolls began to increase like crazy.
âItâs different from what we planned, but the chase in the woods will be a good experience. Everyone try hard to dodge!â
âshit.â
Lee Han vowed to stop students from ignoring the professorâs curriculum and trying to act as they please.
âBe transformed into steel! Cloak!â
right!
The cloak, which had turned into steel, blocked the wooden dollâs attack and made a dull sound.
Five wooden dolls came out at the same time and tried to knock Lee Han. Lee Han stomped his feet while defending the attack with his cape. The steps I learned from Allarron saved my life.
âtoo many!â
I was able to see that numbers are a tremendous weapon.
Seeing that the number continues to increase even nowâ¦
Lee Han gritted his teeth and glanced at Professor Ingeldell from a distance.
âWardanaz must not fight with magic other than enchantment or transmutation magic!â
ââ¦tsk.â
How did know?
Lee Han, who secretly tried to use another magic, clicked his tongue.
Giselle shouted after twisting the leg of the wooden doll with her twin swords and knocking it over.
âLet us also scatter!â
It was a luxury for the three of them to gather together in a situation where the number of enemies was many times greater than before.
Lee Han nodded and raised his hand. Giselle also raised her hand.
Durgyu looked at the two in bewilderment.
Why are you raising your hand�
ââ¦I won! I won!!â
Giselle exclaimed with a flushed face. Durgyu had never seen Giselle like that.
âshit.â
ââ¦Now who decides which direction to go out firstâ¦?â
âwhat. Didnât you know? I canât help it. Durgyu, you choose first.â
Lee Han gave up the second order.
Durgyu had many things he wanted to say, but there was no time left. I had no choice but to rush out. Lee Han, the last remaining man, saw the wooden dolls coming from behind and took out an iron ball.
âMove!â
It wasnât taken out to use in battle.
I thought about it before, but I put it off.
Lee Han ran to the cliff where there was no path, grabbed the iron ball, and hung himself in the air.
widely!
However, the wooden dolls were more persistent than expected.
I started jumping into the air to catch Lee Han.
âWhich professor created this summon beast!?â
Lee Han swung his staff while cursing inwardly.
It was an embarrassing situation, but it was not unexpected.
âWaterâ¦â
With the incantation, the water quickly took shape and began to gather from below.
Although she was in a desperate situation with one hand holding an iron ball to support her body and wooden dolls jumping down in front of her, the spell was completed without wavering.
ââ¦Unfold!â
Professor Ingeldell honestly couldnât help but admire.
How could you criticize a student who only wanted to see swordsmanship, but cleverly escaped like that?
Cheeky!
Landing on the water, Lee Han rolled sideways and quickly got into his stance.
The wooden dolls fell from behind and were smashed, but they couldnât be careless.
âI got out quickly and went downâ¦â
âWodanaz!!â
ââ¦What are you guys doing??â
Lee Han was genuinely taken aback when he saw Angrago and his friends hanging upside down.
