Episode 690
â?!â
When Sianna heard that it was done, her eyes widened and she turned around.
The fact that they were analyzing the magic they saw on the spot was surprising, but it was already done?
âAre you done?â
However, Gainando was not at all surprised and opened the door.
âThen letâs play a round of wizard cardsâ¦â
âNo.â
âyes? âI was just asking.â
Sianna was a little confused as she saw Guyanando quickly backing away.
ââ¦Am I strange?!â
Actually, this wasnât that surprising and maybe only Siana herself was surprised?
âWhatâs going on, priest?â
âThey say they have finished analyzing the magic of those seniors.â
âomg!â
Dergyu was so startled that he almost fell.
Sianna breathed a sigh of relief at that response.
âthank god. Gainando was something strange!â
âIt was transformation magic, after all.â
Lee Han came out from inside and looked around at his friends. Lee Han, who found Dergyu in a hesitant posture, looked at him as if it was strange and asked.
âWhy are you doing this?â
âA little luck exercise.â
âArenât you training too hard? Anyway, it was transformation magic.â
A 3-circle spell that converts creatures under a certain size into wooden boxes. .
When I looked at it from the outside, the flow of magical power was familiar and easy to understand, so I thought it would be unexpected magic, but I was right.
âI guess Iâm just lucky. âHe used magic that his seniors could see and analyze.â
âI donât think thatâs luckâ¦â
Sianna thought to herself.
To be honest, from the seniorsâ point of view, it was very unfair.
How can you expect that a junior who has only completed his first year will be able to understand and learn the structure of magic just by looking at it?
Nilya whispered to Yoner.
âI used to think Wodanaz was good at magic, but these days, doesnât he seem more and more like a crazy person?â
âYes. âI want to deny it, but I canâtâ¦â
After silencing the chattering friends, Lee Han opened his mouth again.
âTheyâre probably trying to throw noisy and disruptive people into our pile.â
âThis is truly despicable!â
âLetâs do it next year too!â
ââ¦â¦â
As his friends stared, Gainando was taken aback.
âuh? âArenât you all going to do it next year?â
âI guess we donât have much to worry about here since we figured out the magic.â
Lee Han ignored it and continued to say what he wanted to say.
This method was not very difficult to block if you learned the magic and knew how to distinguish it.
All you had to do was find something mixed up in the pile of luggage and then remove it or throw it back into the seniorsâ pile of luggage.
âThen everyone, get ready to go out and walk around.â
âalso?â
âYou again. âHow much did you do?â
At Lee Hanâs words, the friends sighed and stood up.
When he arrived in Grandeur City, Lee Han chose the outermost and most unpopular gate among the dozens of city gates and entered.
As if that wasnât enough, they threw a rough, old cloth on top of the carriage to make it difficult to guess that it was a carriage belonging to a noble family.
All of this was done to avoid the eyes of seniors and enter the villa. If I arrived at Grande City with plenty of supplies, my seniors might find me annoying.
After safely storing the supplies in the villa, Lee Hanâs next choice was to contact his seniors as much as possible.
We had to find out about the seniorsâ smuggling methods and prepare in advance if they had evil intentionsâ¦
In order to do that, it was necessary for Lee Han and his friends to wander around various corners of Grandeur City like innocent first-year students who knew nothing.
âruler. Everyone take note. âIf my senior brings up the story of smuggling or tells me about Einroguardâs secretâ¦â
âGasp!â
âIâm surprised!â
âThat canât be possible!â
âHow could that happen! Nonsense!â
Lee Han nodded, satisfied with his friendsâ pretentious reactions.
âokay. Donât forget to react like that and pretend to be fooled. âEveryone letâs go!â
* * *
Death Knight, the loyal knight of the Skull Headmaster, walked down the main street of Grandeur City, clad in a robe.
In fact, it was okay to walk in the broad daylight, but it was a good intention to be considerate of the people of Grandeur City.
âWardanaz familyâs villaâ¦â
As ordered, the Death Knight arrived in front of the Wardanaz familyâs villa and knocked on the gate.
-who are you?
-I came after receiving orders from the principal. Dear students. Please open the door.
-â¦Ugh! Itâs the principalâs attack!
-It wasnât an attack, it was a contactâ¦
The Death Knight was embarrassed and tried to explain, but the students began to prepare, making loud noises.
-Lee Han! The death knight is at your doorstep!
-Whatâ¦what did you get caught with?
-I donât know!
-I will send a message to the temple. Letâs call the priests and attack!
The Death Knight who came as a messenger today had relatively little experience dealing with students.
Unlike an experienced Death Knight, he shouted in a panic.
-There is a misunderstanding, everyone!
-Everyone, donât listen! Theyâre trying to trick you into opening the door!
-I came to take the new student with me! Freshmen!
-â¦â¦
Squeak â
The door to the villa inside the main gate opened, and students came out with eyes full of suspicion.
Only then was the Death Knight able to sigh.
âIs it true?â
-You can also swear on your honor as a knight. Freshmen have to go in first.
The skeleton principal had left Eandurde in the care of Lee Han during the vacation, but he couldnât do that even though the semester was about to start.
Since Lee Han is now a sophomore, he cannot be placed with a freshman.
ââ¦trap?â
Eandurde, who was solving the equation, looked at the Death Knight with eyes full of suspicion.
âItâs not a trap.â
âBut⦠heâs a Death Knight.â
âah. âThe principal originally uses Death Knights as minions.â
â?!â
Lee Han opened the gate, leaving Eandurde alone in shock.
I guess I couldnât keep the skull principalâs messenger standing outside.
The Death Knight took a look at the Wardanaz family villa as he entered. There was a sense of practical neatness, with little interest in appearance or luxury.
-Arenât you all preparing for smuggling?
âUgh.â
âUgh.â
The Death Knight, who asked lightly, was taken aback when the students laughed as if they had heard a joke.
-Oh no. Are you already preparing for smuggling? Are you a first year student?
âWhat⦠what are you looking at to say that?â
-Not only because you arrived early, but also because I could see all sorts of things piled up⦠Please donât smuggle. Iâm saying this for you.
At Death Knightâs words, the students looked at him with criticism, saying, âYouâre like a lackey of that skeleton principal.â
Death Knight, who belatedly realized that look in his eyes, shouted.
-I am not saying this in honor of the master!
âI guess soâ¦â
â Iâm really saying this for you. Smuggling is not good! At first glance, you may be tempted, but you may end up throwing away the items you prepared and going to the punishment room. Andâ¦
the Death Knight hesitated.
I didnât want to alienate the students for no reason.
-â¦It is dangerous to trust those seniors too much.
âyes.â
âYes.â
âI know.â
-?!!
The Death Knight was taken aback when the students reacted sourly and dryly.
-Oh no. Arenât you surprised?
âI was surprised.â
-A completely surprised expressionâ¦
âAll my friends are a bit expressionless.â
Lee Han shamelessly insisted. The Death Knight was confused, but had no choice but to nod.
âHow is the principal doing these days?â
-yes. Wardanaz has taken down all the officials, making things easier.
â????â
The friends next to me could not believe their ears.
What did Lee Han do?
However, Lee Han did not have time to resolve the misunderstanding. Since I had already met the principalâs lackeys, I had to scrape together as much information as possible.
âIs there anything the principal is warning or cautioning about?â
-Are you asking now to smuggle money?
The Death Knight was not stupid.
I was able to understand the meaning behind the studentsâ questions.
-But I will answer you.
â!â
-Once you learn about Einroguardâs iron-clad defense, you will abandon the idea of smuggling.
âohâ¦!â
If the skeleton principal had heard, he would have scolded me and said, âThere are people who can use that and some who canât!â But fortunately, there was no skull principal next to me.
-The owner has increased the number of Death Knights in preparation for the new semester. Drivers who had been traveling to other places also returned.
âDo we have to go to this extent to inspect for contraband?â
Lee Han lamented inwardly as he took note of the number of Death Knights.
Wouldnât it be okay to just have a reasonable number of people?
-Dimension hounds have also been summoned. They will go from the schoolâs main gate to the mountain range to check for any contraband that might come across.
ââ¦Uh, do you normally test like this?â
-Usually about once a decade. I guess I have to call in knights from other places and gather them⦠Dimensional hounds are also quite annoying.
âWhy is it this year?â
Lee Han was secretly angry at the fact that he had somehow failed in the smuggling difficulty level, which periodically increased and decreased.
Isnât it possible to choose a lower difficulty level?
âPerhaps the sky isâ¦â
-Good question! The number of Wyverns I have seen has increased. I wondered if it was necessary to do that to heaven, but the master is a thorough person. I think he judged that there might be some among the students who would go to heaven.
ââ¦!!â
This gave me goosebumps.
It could have been a coincidence, but Lee Han had a hunch that the skeleton principal was targeting him.
âno. Vacation is over, but stillâ¦!â
The skeleton principal was trying to somehow avenge the humiliation of Lee Han escaping through the Spire Stable last year.
If you had tried to smuggle with Amurâs help without knowing this, you would have suffered greatly.
âIâm glad I found out in advance, but itâs painful that one of the methods is gone.â
Unlike his predecessors, it was one of the methods that only Lee Han could do, but that was blocked.
But even though I was disappointed, I couldnât help it. Lee Han vowed to hold on to the Spire Stables route until the Skeleton Headmasterâs vigilance was relaxed.
âBut arenât there many outstanding wizards among your seniors? Is it possible to check all of their magic one by one?â
The Death Knight, who had been stabbed in the painful spot, hesitated to answer.
-You canât catch everything⦠But that doesnât mean you should start smuggling. Do you really want to take that risk when only a small percentage succeed?
âYesâ¦â
âI want to take it.â
The students thought to themselves.
âHearing it clearly makes my thoughts of smuggling disappear a little.â
-Is that so!
The Death Knightâs eyes brightened.
He was satisfied if his story helped to prevent students from making mistakes.
â Well then, Iâm glad. If you experience it this time, you will know, but there is no such fuss. There are no students who quietly pass the inspection. They cast spells, cause trouble, sneak out, and sometimes riots break outâ¦
ââ¦Uh, riots?â
-You probably think that if we all run amok, we wonât be able to put you in the punishment room! Of course, the owner adds it. The first week of that year, lectures were held in the punishment room.
The past of my seniors was very interesting.
Lee Han was very focused, wondering if there was anything he could refer to.
-And this time, the warehouse manager will also come out and help with the inspection. No matter how good the studentsâ magic is, passing will be really difficult!
Lee Han nodded.
The warehouse keeper, who had the ability to detect magical energy, was the very fear of students taking walks at night.
Lee Han also had dangerous times a few times.
âfor a moment. When the warehouse manager comes out and checks, what about the basementâ¦?
-Wardanaz?
âyes?â
-Who is that person?
The Death Knight pointed forward with a puzzled look.
A tightly tied senior was trying to escape from the outer room of the mansion, but was caught by students and dragged back.
-These bastards. How on earth did you know? Who told you?
-Senior, please be quiet!
thud!
When the door closed, Lee Han shrugged his shoulders and said.
âIâm not sure what youâre talking about.â
-â¦â¦
