Episode 797
âI donât think Iâll enjoy it.â
No matter how much I tried to enjoy uncertainty and change, it was impossible to enjoy it when the fire element was trying to burn everything around me (even Lee Han).
The old pirate woman was saddened by Lee Hanâs answer.
âKihihi⦠Itâs still old-fashioned. Thatâs not even possible. Iâm trapped inside Einroguard. What you need is a salty sea breeze, baby! Then you will know what freedom is.â
âDo you mean pirates?â
âokay!â
âIt is wrong to know freedom for life.â
Lee Han felt a little sad.
Being a pirate was too unstable a job for Lee Han to pursue.
Having to float on the sea waiting for income you never know when.
Compared to imperial bureaucrats, isnât this a completely opposite profession?
âThere is no sea or pirate ship, but should I still teach you a little?â
âItâs okayâ¦â
âOkay. âClose your eyes.â
ââ¦â¦â
âWhy do strong wizards ignore the words of others?â
Lee Han was suspicious of Lagesa giving orders while clinking the cutlass on her waist.
Does your hearing get weaker as your magic gets stronger?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI closed it.â
âYou are now driving a ship on the sea. okay? âYouâre the captain of a pirate ship.â
âyes. âI am the captain of a pirate ship.â
Lee Han followed along, feeling like a fool.
âWhat do you want to do?â
âyes?â
bang!
Lagesa stamped his foot and got angry.
âWhat do you want to do?â Pirate captains donât ask âyes?â âPirate captains make their own decisions!â
âI want to stop this, butâ¦â When
Lee Han didnât answer, Lagesa spoke instead.
âwhat? âYou want to destroy all the kids in the duel club?â
âI didnât say that.â
âBe quiet, Captain. ruler. On the horizon, the duel club brats are driving a sailboat! âIâm cheekily spreading my new sail and catching the wind!â
ââ¦â¦â
I wondered why it was arrogant to unfold a new sail and catch the wind in the sea, but Lee Han listened quietly.
âFeel the sea breeze!â
ââ¦?â
âItâs good that you didnât say something stupid like this isnât the sea. The sea breeze is definitely there. Now, now⦠I can feel it!â
Lagesa slapped Lee Han on the back and shouted. The eyes sparkled even more under the deeply wrinkled forehead.
The chain-wearing pirates following behind looked at the old pirate woman as if she were crazy.
I knew he was a crazy pirate, but I didnât really understand what he was showing today.
What kind of sea breeze blows in the hallway of a magic school?
However, instead of ignoring the other personâs crazy noises, Lee Han calmly focused.
Because I thought it wouldnât happen for no reason.
âI canât believe I can feel the sea breeze from here. âWhat do you mean?â
There was not a breath of wind in the desolate hallways of Einrogard.
All you can hear is the sound of footsteps and the clanking of the shackles on the ankles of the chained pirates.
Andâ¦
âAh.â
Lee Han felt a ray of magical power pass by his cheek.
It was natural that natural spaces were filled with magical energy, so it was difficult to realize it unless you were conscious of it, but originally, magical energy circulated through space.
Wizards who trained their senses to perceive magic knew how to capture these cycles and flows, and among them, wizards with alert and sensitive senses were especially able to capture them more accurately.
âI felt it.â
âI heard itâs really easy for a smart and cunning guy to teach.â
Lagesa was satisfied.
Even if they were wizards, there were many who couldnât understand the phrase âfeel the sea breeze.â
No matter how many times you memorize and learn magic, what good does it do? I donât understand what magic is.
âIâm not sneakyâ¦â
âShh! Feel that sea breeze even stronger. âIâm surrendering myself.â
â!â
Lee Han was slightly surprised by those words.
Normally, when imperial magic recognized this flow of magical power, it tried to control it.
Only when you hold it tightly in your hand can you enhance it without any special variables occurring when casting magic.
A wizard hates variables, but instead relies on variables.
ââ¦I left it to you.â
âMake that sea breeze stronger.â
Lagesa spoke at once.
A random instruction that doesnât even tell you how to make it stronger.
Ordinary wizards would be perplexed when receiving instructions like this and would answer things like âHowâ or âThat doesnât make sense.â
But Lee Han just accepted it.
As I had received so many unreasonable teachings, this no longer felt so unreasonable.
âMake it stronger.â
After thinking for a moment, Lee Han immediately moved. When you donât know something, you have to experiment one by one to find the answer.
âTo make the flow of magical power strongerâ¦â
Instead of controlling the magical power, one follows and sympathizes with the flow of magical energy.
Lee Hanâs magical energy flowed out and merged exactly with the surrounding flow.
âKeck!â
Lagesha made a noise in surprise.
I never thought I would find a way and do it so quickly.
Itâs simple to say, but strengthening the flow by infusing oneâs magic is usually not a difficult task.
First, the flow of magic power had to be read down to the smallest detail.
It was difficult to read it roughly. Otherwise, rather than making the flow stronger, it was likely to collide and stop.
After that, he had to infuse his magic accurately without any error. If the direction or properties were wrong, it was a collision.
Whiiiiing â
The sound of a strong storm that only an experienced wizard could hear began to fill the hallway. The pirates wearing chains looked around with anxious faces as if they sensed something strange.
Although he was not a wizard, he instinctively felt uneasy as the flow of magical energy became stronger.
âWhy are you doing that?â
Lee Han stopped the process and asked when Lagesa made a sound.
âItâs nothing, keep going! âCompared to the sea, Einrogard is a bit dry.â
The great pirate took out a barrel of liquor and took a gulp, prompting him to do so. Lee Han tilted his head.
âIt doesnât seem like particularly dry weather.â
Anyway, it seemed like the method he had just used was correct, so Lee Han continued.
Read, read, read the flow, then take the time to add your own magic to it.
Then the flow of magical power became even stronger.
âThe flow has become rough.â
As the flow becomes stronger, the movement also becomes more violent and rough.
Lee Han concentrated so as not to miss the flow.
I read with more concentration than before and take advantage of the right time to add my magicâ¦
Hwiiii!!
After repeating it a few times, the flow of magic power rose to an unusual level.
At this point, even non-magicians could feel it, so Lee Han asked a question.
âItâs okayâ¦â
âGo ahead, Captain! Letâs see how far you can go!â
ââ¦â¦â
Although he was anxious, Lee Han did as the other person told him to do.
Heâs an excellent wizard, so Iâm sure he wonât order you to do something ridiculous.
While Lee Han closed his eyes and summoned a storm, the chained pirates looked down the hallway with eyes full of fear.
A similar phenomenon was occurring when a crazy spirit appeared on the sea.
Even though there was no wind, a thunderclap was heard, and the body suddenly moved as it pleased, as if it were being pushed or pulled, space was distorted, and the sense of timeâ¦
Either that or not, Lagesa was so excited that he stamped his feet and clapped his hands.
âMore more! Letâs see how far we can go!â
The chained pirates shed tears of fear.
You are going to die here today!
Even though there were storms and turbulent waves, he was helping out like a crazy person driving a boat.
âPlease notice, you wizard!â
The chained pirates just prayed that the wizard boy would open his eyes and realize what was happening.
If I leave it like this, reallyâ¦
âCan I really continue?â
Perhaps the tears of the pirates behind him had created a miracle, or perhaps Lee Han thought this had become too strong, and the magical power slowly began to stop.
âCaptain, spread your sails to the limit of your horsepower! Letâs see how much we can squeeze today!â
Lagesa shouted with her eyes shining.
If it only happened once or twice, he would keep standing there while spewing out magic power over and over again.
I was really curious to see how far it was possible.
However, instead of stretching his sails toward the limits of his magical powers, the boy from the Wardanaz family responded rationally.
âI know the limits of my magical power, Lord Lagesa!â
âYou know?â
âyes! âYou can repeat this all day long!â
ââ¦â¦â
Lagesa got goosebumps as if cold water had been poured on her. It was to the point where I doubted whether I had heard correctly.
If thatâs trueâ¦
âWhat kind of monster is this guy, Bagreg, raising??â
âLagessa. âI think itâs going to be difficult any longer!â
Lee Han shouted in an urgent voice.
It was a flow of magical power that he had strengthened, but as the flow became so strong, it became difficult to surrender to it.
Perhaps because of my mood, I can hear creaking sounds coming from the hallway ceiling and wallsâ¦
âI understand, I understand! ruler. Now send them away with a pirate shout!â
âHwi-ik!â
Lee Han whistled hard and pushed away a huge flow of magical energy. Since it was so urgent, I was only focused on completing this pirate magic safely.
ââââ!
And then the most ferocious roar Lee Han had ever heard swept through the hallway. Lee Han opened his eyes in surprise.
The ceiling and floor walls were all horribly destroyed. It seemed as if a huge phantom beast was swinging its claws and running wild.
I looked to the side and saw Lagesa panting and sighing in relief.
âTorgherdâs daughter almost died here!â
âyes??â
âItâs nothing, kid! Good job. âItâs a nice ride on pirate magic.â
âWhat on earth happened?â
âNothing happened. âWhen you use pirate magic, things like this sometimes come out.â
A sad cry came from behind.
The chained pirates fell to the ground and began to wail loudly out of relief that their lives had been saved. Lagesha shouted in a fierce voice.
âYou canât shut up, you convicts! Go back and cry! âBefore I extend my sentence!â
âIt seems like something happenedâ¦â
âI told you it didnât happen! âAre you going against my words now?â
ââ¦All right.â
âBoy, you are the captain who has just boarded a small sailboat. I understand itâs heartbreaking, but you need to be humble. You have to learn how to touch the sails, feel the wind, and read the stars. âEvery time you learn something, you will realize how big this ocean is and how small you are.â
Lee Han was slightly impressed by the wonderful analogy about pirate magic.
It was a metaphor that only a pirate who had lived on the sea his entire life could make. So much so that even Lee Han, who had no interest in pirate magic, was impressed.
âSo what should I do next?â
âto the next?â
Lagesa took out a handkerchief and applied it to the wound. A handkerchief that absorbed the blood healed the wound.
âbantling. What you need to do next isâ¦â
Lee Han listened intently.
At first, I was reluctant to learn from this old pirate woman, but I was lucky enough to succeed in learning, so it would have been a loss if I didnât learn more about how to handle it.
Moreover, even if I tried not to notice it, I was concerned about the shattered ceiling, floor, and wailing pirates.
âCouldnât you have just opened your eyes and seen?â
What should we do to deal with this uncertain magic?
ââ¦I will never use this pirate magic for the next hundred years or so!â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han was very disappointed at the words of Lagesa, who gave the order to disembark immediately after boarding.
