Episode 694:
Lee Han and his party drove a carriage and passed through an underground passage.
Every time the carriage wheels hit the hard stone floor, an echo spread across the high ceiling of the passage.
I clicked my tongue when I saw the lights illuminating the long underground passage.
It was no exaggeration to say that there were so many passages in the basement of Einrogard that even the principal could not keep track of them all.
I never thought there would be a road like this here.
âIt reminds me of the passage I found last year.â
âYou mean the aisle?â
Lee Han asked with joy.
When his juniorâs face was distorted by pain and hatred, Ulde responded with a little relief.
âokay. âDo you remember last yearâs flood?â
âyes.â
There was no way I couldnât remember.
How hard did Lee Han and the first-year students work?
Lee Han even had to face the angry spirit directly to solve the problem.
âNatural disasters in Einrogard are painful, but at the same time they are an opportunity for students.â
âYouâre talking like a principal.â
Lee Han thought about bursting into sad tears if the other person heard.
âAs the schoolâs solid order is shaken, hidden sideways are revealed. âIt was the same back then.â
âYouâre lucky.â
âWellâ¦â
Erde made a bitter expression.
âThe road was a road, but it happened to be a sewer through which magical waste passed. âAt least I failed because I was caught.â
Escape from Einrogard was always fraught with numerous failures and dangers.
You cannot think that there will always be glory just because a path is created.
âJunior. If youâre capable, youâll be fine, but donât let down your guard. Einrogard is like a swamp. âIf you let your guard down, it will reach your throat before you know it.â
âIâll keep that in mind.â
âNothing much should happen.â
Ulde looked back with a worried expression.
I was worried about the future they would soon enter, but I was actually just as worried about the future.
Since this plan was made under a tight time frame, if any variables arise, the situation will go awry.
I wasnât sure if the first-year students who took charge of the rear would perform as well as the first-year students next to them.
âIt will be okay. âAll my friends are just as good as me.â
âbut. When I looked at the potion, it wasnât normal. âProfessor Thunderwalker will be happy.â
âThe Siana priest who created it is behind it.â
âItâs reassuring. âWhat about other friends?â
âDurgyu is a great knight. âHeâs a match for me in swordsmanship.â
âIndeed⦠huh?â
Erde paused.
I thought that if he was on par with the Blue Dragon Tower student in terms of swordsmanship, he wouldnât be that outstanding.
âI see. also?â
âNilia is a hunter from the Shadow Patrol.â
âWhat is the Shadow Patrol?â
âno. What if you donât know the Empireâs best rangers guarding the northern mountains of the Empire?â
Ulde was taken aback when his junior, who was always calm, got angry.
âIâm sorry. âIâm from the South.â
âNo matter how much youâre from the South, this is common sense!â
âRemember this. âWhat about other friends?â
âhmm. âI think Iâve said everythingâ¦â
Yoner, who was driving the carriage behind him, said quietly.
âGainando.â
âah. Cainan Island. Gai Nando is also a good friend.â
âDidnât you just forgetâ¦â
âI made a mistake because I was nervous.â
âSo whatâs so great about that friend?â
âSeniors. Your voice is too loud. âPlease be quiet.â
ââ¦â¦â
This bastard?
* * *
âYouâll be okay, right?â
âItâll be okay.â
âYouâll be okay, right?â
âIt will be fine.â
âYouâll be okay, right?â
âItâll be okay.â
âI guess itâll be okayâ¦â
Nilia Dergyu Siana exchanged glances.
Then he quickly grabbed Guyandoâs arms and covered his mouth.
âtown! Eupeup!â
No matter how much I tried to tolerate it, it was a bit too much to worry about whether my friends who came in every five seconds would be okay.
When the true Guynando signaled to be released, Durgyu carefully removed the gag.
âGainando. If you keep doing that, I have no choice but to tie it up again.â
âSobbing. âItâs because Iâm worried.â
âIâm worried too, Gainando. But itâll be okay. âLee Han went.â
âYoner can be caught, but I hope Lee Han gets out.â
Nilia and Syana looked at Gainandoâs mutterings with contempt.
You bastard!
âIâd rather have my senior catch me.â
âthatâs right. âSenior, itâs okay.â
âbut. âMaybe my senior will be okayâ¦â
While they were deciding among themselves a scapegoat, a light began to dimly appear in the distance.
At that light, Nilia felt her heart sink.
âItâs⦠a carriage!â
âwhat? Nonsense. âProbably not yet!â
Nilia jumped down from the tree and whispered urgently.
âGeneration. Two lanterns per carriage. âItâs the upper carriage.â
âDamn you, Master Flemain!â
â?â
Durgyu couldnât believe his ears for a moment because of Priest Sianaâs swearing, but he didnât have time to ask again now.
The fact that the upper carriage was coming at this hour was the worst situation I could have ever expected.
Lee Han went to the top, forged the signatures of the principal and Professor Verdus, and delivered fake communications.
Among the contents was that the actual arrival time of the carriage was delayed by about three hours.
Lee Han and his party planned to use the time they gained to attack quicklyâ¦
âI think they are planning to arrive early and wait since they are delivering supplies to Einroguard.â
âWhy is Einrogard so needlessly infamous?â
âCan not help it. Take out what you prepared! Cainan Island. âCan you do it well?â
âThatâs it.â
Although he had prepared, when the situation came when he had to do it, Gainando was nervous.
Dergyu held onto both of Gaynandoâs shoulders and spoke strongly.
âWe have to do it. Gainando! If you fail, Lee Han might get caught!â
âOkay⦠I understand. Iâll do it! letâs go!â
âgood. âEveryone go to their positions!â
In the distance, the upper carriage rumbled closer.
Usually, the workers hummed along during this kind of operation, but today they were dead quiet.
He just muttered very quietly.
-Please let me leave safelyâ¦
-Please let me leave safelyâ¦
Delivering supplies to Einroguard was scary no matter how many times I did it.
âPlease help me too!â
â?!â
âMy friend passed out!â
Nilia ran out and shouted to the workers.
The workers looked away in confusion. Inside the bushes, there was a blonde boy who had collapsed with foam at the mouth.
âIs there a problem?â
âI went out to see the great moon squirrel that only appears at night, but I think I accidentally ate a strange flower!â
âWhy do you eat that!?â
The workers became angry without realizing it.
Even though the other person seemed to be quite wealthy and high-ranking, he was ridiculous enough to get angry.
âIâm sorry. âJust because the color looks prettyâ¦â
âWhat if I pick up something just because the color looks pretty?â
The workers rushed over to check on Gainandoâs condition.
Gainando closed his eyes and concentrated.
âI am sick. I am sick.â
Gainando was foaming at the mouth and shaking his head as he recalled his experience of feigning illness last year when he didnât want to study.
The workers became serious at the sight.
âIt looks like it hurts really bad.â
âIf itâs around here, wouldnât you have eaten a calaibi flower or a lanaton flower?â
âI think we should take them both to the village quickly.â
The person in charge thought about the workersâ reports and made a decision.
âCome up to the carriage! It may be inconvenient since it is a wagon, but there is nothing we can do about it. âIâm glad we left quickly.â
The studentsâ faces lit up when they somehow succeeded.
You succeeded in buying time!
Tap, tap, tap â
â?â
Workers and students turned their heads when they heard the sound of horsesâ hooves from the other side.
A traveler I had never seen before was approaching me on horseback.
âExcuse me. Is anyone hurt? âI was passing through the upper road over there, and it seemed like there was someone injuredâ¦â
âAre you a healing wizard by any chance?â
âyes. âMy name is Phil, a healing wizard from Einrogard.â
âomg!â
The workers were pleased and the students were in despair.
I never thought my senior would show up without me even noticing!
âYouâre from Einrogard! Iâm so glad! âThere is someone here who ate a strange flower and collapsed!â
âWhy did you eat that?!â
âWe donât know that either!â
âAll right. âIâm going!â
As Phil began to approach, the juniors looked at each other with despair in their eyes.
At that time, Gaynando whispered to Siana.
âPriest Sianna.â
âyes?â
âGive me that. hurry.â
âNo wayâ¦â
Sianna was embarrassed.
Apparently, there was poison prepared at Gainandoâs request before departure.
A real poison that is not life-threatening but makes you really sick!
I thought I would use a drop if the acting was awkward, but now?
âhurry!â
âHere.â
âTell this to Lee Han. âI drank heroicallyâ¦!â
âOkay!â
Guynando opened the cap of the real poison and took a gulp.
Then he started foaming and convulsing.
âKwaaaaaak!â
âOh my! Please come quickly! âThe patientâs condition is bad!â
Phil quickly arrived and checked on Gainandoâs condition.
And then he shouted in shock. The poison had more than one ingredient.
âHow many flowers have you eaten⦠no, how many flowers have you eaten?â
âWell, we tooâ¦â
âLetâs go to the village! âThe reagents I have right now may not be enough!â
âAll right!â
âHold on a little! âI will treat you soon!â
As Phil held onto Guyandoâs hand and shouted, the other friends watched with complicated expressions.

-Please organize it inside.
When we reached the end of the underground passage, a warehouse appeared.
It was a warehouse that Lee Han had seen before.
âThere is no warehouse manager!â
Lee Han and Ulde exchanged glances.
Since the Death Knight is not particularly interested in organizing the warehouse, he will not come inside.
Now all I had to do was get into the warehouse and move as quickly as possible.
Luck was on his side.
Grumble!
Like skilled workers, Lee Han and his party lifted the boxes from the wagon and placed them in the warehouse.
âJoner Ratford. request. âIf I canât come backâ¦â
âThatâs okay. Letâs just get caught together.â
âno. You too, start the carriage. âWhat would we do if we were all in the punishment room together?â
Two people had to stay behind in the warehouse and make excuses in case of an unexpected situation.
They say the Death Knights are indifferent to this, but the fact that no one is there is a different story.
âArise, warriors of bone.â
Lee Han brought in skeleton warriors reinforced with the dark element and even called in Gonadaltes to take on the role of leader.
As the load that had to be moved was a burden, it required a lot of hands.
I was dumbfounded and looked at the undead summons and then just kept my mouth shut.
âLetâs go.â
âOkay, letâs go!â
Lee Han and Erde started running with their luggage.
As I ran through the deserted basement warehouse area and climbed the stairs, the area behind the central entrance was revealed.
An empty banquet hall, a large hall, and several closed doors.
âCome this way!â
From here, I ran without any problems as I knew where it was.
Go over to the area in front of the central entrance and go up the stairs to the warehouse on the second floor of the main building!
That was the original planâ¦
â!â
â!!!!â
The two were surprised.
Originally, there was a wall where the door to the front area should have been.
âYou fucking Einrogard! âThe location has changed!â
Ulde let out a swear word.
The terrain of Einrogard changes often, but this is the place that changes at times like this!
âWe need to find the door!â
âItâs hard without a clue. In a situation like nowâ¦â
Lee Han was not swayed by his seniorâs words.
âAlthough Einrogardâs main building is constantly changing, the first floor, where outsiders frequently come and go, does not change so easily. There must be a door not far from here.â
Lee Han sharpened his senses and tried to feel the flow of magical power around him.
Where thereâs magic thereâs a way.
If youâre looking for a sense of discomfort, itâs definitelyâ¦
âSenior. This wall isnât a wall, itâs a door!â
âwhat?â
Ulde reacted late and waved his cane.
Surprisingly, what my junior said was right.
It was not a wall, but a door cleverly disguised as a wall!
If I majored in fantasy magic, I should have figured it out first, but I made a mistake because I was nervous.
Ulde blushed with embarrassment.
âsorry! I should have found it. âIâll cancel it right away.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
If you release the illusion wall, a door will appear. Ulde got down on one knee, put on his staff, and tried to recite a spell.
âSeniors. âHow long do you think it will take?â
â5 to 10 minutes!â
âIt wonât work. Letâs break it down with our strength!â
âHow can you destroy this with force?!â
Uldeâs eyes widened at such an ignorant sound.
Lee Han attached his staff and swung his magic hammer to blow away the illusion.
thud!
Then the wall disappeared and a door appeared.
âletâs go!â
âYouâ¦what the hell did you justâ¦â
âItâs Baldorornâs magical hammer!â
ââ¦You must explain in detail later!â
Ulde ran forward, confused by the name of the fantasy wizard he had never heard before.
