Chapter 666

Episode 666

“Ah. I need to buy some snake food.”

Eandurde tilted her head.

The snakes in her hair didn’t really need to eat.

“Am I okay?”

“ah. Not you, but this guy.”

Lee Han rolled up his sleeves to reveal the tail of a baby basilisk wrapped around his arm.

The basilisk hissed disgruntledly at Eandurde and waggled his tail menacingly.

‘Why are you raising something like that?’

Eandurde didn’t quite understand.

Could it be that Lee Han doesn’t have an evil eye, so he carries something like that?

You probably don’t have a hobby of collecting unusual and rare beasts…

“Wait. I will buy it and come out soon.”

“I want to take a look too.”

“You shouldn’t eat.”

Eandurde tapped his chest as if not to worry. Lee Han and Durgyu secretly exchanged glances.

‘If necessary, I have to dry it.’

‘I know Lee Han.’

Located in the city of Flaher, the used space expansion magic to secure a site the size of a ranch inside the building.

Of course, it wasn’t just talking about the scale. Many rare animals and monsters of the empire were also handled.

Lee Han looked around the inside of the stable, which looked like it was made by roughly weaving wood.

– The one who flies.

– A walking guy.

– Crawling guy.

…

I could guess the owner’s personality just by looking at the sign scrawled in bad handwriting above the door leading to each ranch.

‘hmm. The personality of the owner here is far from being kind like Professor Ein Rogard.’

“I’m trying to buy a horse…”

“Go over there and see for yourself.”

“yes. I’ve been watching By the way, who speaks brown and speaks black, which one is stronger.”

“Both are strong.”

“no. Still, isn’t there a stronger one of the two?”

“Don’t be foolish.”

“yes?”

“Don’t be foolish. Because I hear you.”

“What are you listening to? do you mean? What do you hear? Are you crazy?”

The customers around them grinned and began to withdraw slowly.

Yihan also felt ominous and stepped aside with Eandurde.

Boom!

One unlucky guest flew out of the stable. The owner spat and returned.

Durgyu muttered in shock.

“Even in the North, there are few people who do business like that!”

“I mean.”

“Lee Han. There are quite a few people who seem like regulars here, so why the hell?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Isn’t it because your skills are excellent?”

“No matter how good your skills are.”

‘Well, that’s true too.’

He wrote ‘flying guy’ on the sign, but he got angry when a customer was harassing him.

He was a foolish person like Professor Ein Rogard.

“I wouldn’t be personally familiar with it. There is no one like that…”

Kiik-

“Lightning Steps! welcome!”

The owner greeted the professor with lightning steps, as if his exasperation just now had been a lie.

Lightningwalker, wearing a leather jacket and flying nose goggles, waved.

“How are you, Skullbreaker?”

“Lightning step! I’m ashamed. It’s an old nickname.”

“ah. I’m sorry.”

The two seemed very friendly. After seeing the professor shaking hands with the master, the Einrogard students quietly turned their heads.

However, Professor Lightning’s eye was very sharp.

“Wardanaz. Choi. What are you doing there?”

“I’m here to buy some pet food.”

“Go upstairs.”

The Skullbreaker or the stable owner yawned and gestured toward the back stairs.

Pets’ favorite food was organized there.

However, Professor Lightning Walk stopped and asked.

If it was Lee Han’s pet, it was not an ordinary pet.

“What pet?”

“Um, can I talk here?”

The owner yawned again and said:

“This is where all kinds of rare animals come and go. Everyone won’t be surprised, so you can tell me.”

“It’s a basilisk.”

Kwadangtangtang!

As soon as Lee Han finished speaking, the customers quickly started running out of the stable.

The lightning stride professor looked at the owner as if accusing him.

“There is a limit to belittling the Einrogard students.”

“ah. no! I also sold animals to Einrogard students a few times, but none of them had a basilisk!”

The owner was very rude.

No matter how rare the animals are, where is the person who takes a basilisk!?

* * *

All the customers have left. The owner introduced the stable after hanging a sign saying business was over today.

“This meat is from a low-level imp.”

“What effect does it have?”

“Delicious! If you feed it to the basilisk, it will be happy.”

“……”

“This meat is the meat of a kelpie.”

“What effect…?”

“Delicious! If you feed it to the basilisk, it will be happy.”

Lee Han shook his head.

I saw Eandurde licking his lips next to me, so I took a piece.

‘I’ll have to bake it later.’

While feeding the basilisk a little bit of chopped raw meat, Lee Han asked Professor Lightning Step, who was looking around the ranch.

“Can’t we take these animals to Einrogard?”

“It is officially impossible. Because the principal hates it.”

Headmaster Skeleton was a person who hated students who tried to ease their school life with the property they brought from outside.

Artifacts were also stolen, but there was no way they could be called animals.

“Then informally…?”

“It might be possible.”

Professor Lightningstep grinned.

Already, Lee Han’s seniors were secretly bringing in outside animals for various purposes.

To use it for gyeokgu, to get help with research, it was just cute…

Professor Lightning Walk didn’t really care. It was okay to bring anything to school, as long as it wasn’t a huge monster like a firefly.

“By the way, don’t you already have a phone league? The phone league will be jealous if you bring another mount.”

“Rather than me, I asked because of other friends. But what brought you to Flaher, Professor? Are you trying to find a dueling club?”

“I’m not Professor Bagleg, so why would I go to a dueling club?”

“……”

Lee Han closed his eyes at the teacher’s eccentricity, which was already famous among professors.

‘I shouldn’t say that I was banned from entering as well.’

“That’s why I came to Flaher City… Hmm.”

Professor Lightning Walk, who was talking, looked over at Lee Han and asked.

“Are you thinking of doing something together during vacation? The pay is pretty good, but you can refuse if you don’t want to.”

“No, the pay is good, but is there anyone who refuses?”

At Lee Han’s question, the lightning-walking professor looked at his student like a madman.

“Normally students want to relax and play during vacation…”

“It is a prejudice. Me and all my friends love to work.”

“……”

Durgyu looked at Lee Han with melancholy eyes.

It’s not!

“So what? If it’s too risky, it’s a bit like that.”

“It is not dangerous. But it can be a bit annoying. It’s a job that requires you to travel around the mountains and camp. I need to find a unicorn.”

Professor Lightning Walk held out an old request.

find someone!

Professor Ein Rogaard

went missing while looking for a unicorn in the Bendosol Bitter Mountains!

Bounty paid regardless of life or death

-Osu Gonadaltes

“……”

“……”

“Is the professor also missing?”

Professor Lightning Step kindly answered the junior’s naive question.

“On the contrary, they tend to go missing more often than students. They are more fearless than students and go to dangerous places a lot.”

“indeed. You are going to find the professor.”

Lee Han nodded.

Come to think of it, I heard that the original professor who was in charge of the lecture was Professor Bendosol.

However, Professor Bendosol went missing while looking for a unicorn, so Professor Lightning Walk hurriedly joined as a substitute.

I couldn’t find it last year because I was busy with lectures, but I had some free time during the winter vacation, so going out to search like this…

“What do you mean by a professor?”

“yes? This is a request for a professor, isn’t it?”

“ah!”

Professor Lightning Walk laughed heartily at Lee Han’s misunderstanding.

“I didn’t explain too much! did you say I need to find a unicorn. Rumors circulated that a unicorn had been found in the Bitter Mountains two weeks ago. I came to meet the unicorn.”

“Then why did you give me this request?”

“Because the map is well laid out.”

“……”

Lee Han checked the old request again.

The map of the Bitter Mountains was better than expected, probably because the Headmaster Skeleton made it himself.

Maps of the empire were not free, and for maps of rugged and remote places like the Bitong Mountains, you had to buy maps made by explorers with money. As long as it was made by an individual, errors that follow from mistakes were a bonus.

In that respect, the map made by the Headmaster Skeleton was reliable.

“Aren’t you looking for the professor?”

“Professor Bendozol isn’t a child… he’ll come back on his own. If I go looking for it, I will be rather angry.”

Lee Han looked at me in disbelief. Professor Lightning Step protested with resentment.

“Really. It’s because you don’t know Professor Bendosol.”

“Professor Verdus would probably say something similar about Professor Bendozol’s disappearance…” “

That’s different! Even if you compare it, why are you comparing it with Professor Verdus?”

Professor Lightningwalk grumbled and put the pipe in his mouth.

“So are you going or not?”

“I will go. You just need to find a unicorn, right?”

“Looking for unicorns, and at the same time looking for other guys who came looking for unicorns as well…”

“Do you cooperate?”

“You sound like cooperation. Beat it up and drive it out of the mountains.”

“……”

When Lee Han sent a look similar to the one before, Professor Lightning Walk had to explain again.

“They are poachers. A poacher trying to kill a unicorn to get its corpse!”

Under imperial law, unicorns were forbidden to hunt.

Professor Lightningwalker went to the Mountains of Torment for the purpose of not only meeting the unicorn, but also protecting it from other poachers.

“indeed. professor. I was counting on you.”

“Do you know that Thunderwalker sometimes curses at you?”

* * *

When they heard that they were going to meet a unicorn, the friends immediately agreed with excitement.

Einrogard students gathered from the outskirts of the city with their own preparations and waited for Professor Lightning Walk.

“Professor? When are you coming?”

“Coming soon…”

With a bloody sound from far away, a group of wyverns began to stomp and walk.

The people who were surprised to see it scattered in all directions.

“It’s an assault! Wyvern attack!”

“Oh no! There are people riding on it!”

“It’s an assault! Attack of the Wyvern Bandits!”

As people screamed and ran away, the hunters and rangers riding on the wyverns shouted loudly.

“Don’t get me wrong, fellow citizens! We are not bandits!”

“I belong to the Wasteland Star Catcher, and this friend here is an explorer…”

“We are gathered here today to protect the Lightning Steps and the unicorns of the Empire! This wyvern was borrowed for that purpose!”

As soon as the words were finished, the vendors started throwing tomatoes and eggs with angry expressions.

Hunters and rangers panicked and hid behind wyvern wings.

“Hey you crazy bastards! Where are the guys who brought the wyvern all the way here!”

“W, isn’t there a flag hanging here!”

“You brought a large monster here just because you had a flag attached? Crazy bastards! You belong to the Shadow Guard!”

“Belonging to the Wasteland Star Catchers…!”

Lee Han and his friends quietly turned their heads and pretended not to see.
