Episode 864
âWhat did I do wrong to my junior?â
Delet thought for a moment.
Of course, last week, due to a small misunderstanding, my junior was forced to learn âSummon Skeleton Golemâ.
But wasnât that something done with good intentions? A person with a good heart like my junior had to take extenuating circumstances.
â¦is not it?
âsorry. senior.â
Lee Han quickly approached and whispered in a low voice.
Lee Han could guess how shocked Delet must be right now.
Since two professors were brought into the classroomâ¦
âYou must have been surprised to see the professors come into the classroom.â
âuh. âI was more surprised when the dragon came.â
Delet was astonished to see his junior taking dragons for granted. Lee Han looked embarrassed and explained.
âsorry. âI thought the professor would be more shocked.â
âIs that person your highness?â
âyes.â
Lee Han looked at his senior and explained why Jo Woo-rin came and why the professors came together.
Dirette was surprisingly easy to understand.
It is not easy for dragons to move around in Einrogard.
âWell, it might be better for professors to go together.â
âI thought I was overreacting a bit.â
âhuh? Absolutely not. âThere are a lot of crazy people, so itâs only right to hang out with them.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han was momentarily speechless at the sight of Direth showing absolute distrust toward his juniors.
Meanwhile, conversations were taking place behind the scenes.
A lecture on black magic! Iâm so excited for Jo Woo-rin!
âthatâs right. majesty. Contrary to popular misunderstanding, black magic can be said to be a descendant of ancient magic that has been passed down for a very long time. Moreover, Direth students are among the most talented among Einrogard students.â
Professor Garcia raised his expectations even higher. Jo Woo-rinâs big eyes shone like morning stars.
wow! Like Gonadaltes?
âThatâs right.â
ââ¦â¦â
Direth broke into a sweat as he heard the conversation coming from behind.
Even if itâs Professor Garcia, why is Professor Boladi like that?
âWhat are you doing like the principalâ¦â
âSenior. Cheer up. âI will help you.â
âhuh. thank you. But junior.â
âyes?â
âGo sit over there.â
Direth said as if he was dumbfounded as he looked at Lee Han standing next to the teaching table and getting ready to help.
My junior was someone who listened to lectures, not someone who did them.
Why are you standing next to me and trying to help me?
âOops.â
Lee Han realized his mistake and returned to his seat. Jo Woo-rin hugged Lee Han like a doll with his front paws.
Seeing his junior suffering from frustration, Delet apologized in his mind.
âSorry. Junior. Iâm just a student.â
Direth lacked the courage to boldly tell his juniors not to bully him in front of professors and upper-ranking members of the royal family.
âfirst of all. The lecture on âPoison Bone and Bloodâ is an in-depth lecture on some elements that are often used in black magic, but whose importance is easily forgotten.â
âDirette student. âPlease donât worry about us and proceed comfortably.â
âPretend it doesnât exist.â
ââ¦â¦â
Direth was in tears.
If you really wanted to not worry, the three of you could have waited outside!
ââ¦Last week, I learned how to summon a skeleton golem. Junior.â
âSummon a skeleton golem?â
Professor Boladi looked at Lee Han and asked. Lee Han, whose movements were restricted as he was trapped between Jo Woo-rinâs front paws, nodded his head with difficulty.
âyes.â
âRight.â
âWhat does that mean?â
Lee Han flinched at the sound of Professor Boladi taking notes with his quill pen.
If I hadnât been trapped between Jo Woo-rinâs paws, I would have checked what I wrote.
âItâs only the first semester, but you taught me how to summon a skeleton golem? Delet student. âNo matter how good a student he is, he is very strict with his juniors.â
âNo, thatâsâ¦â
Direth felt mortified.
I didnât teach it, but the junior student somehow managed to complete it within the lecture timeâ¦!
ââ¦I guessâ¦I guess I was a bit harsh on my juniorâ¦â
What does âeven though heâs a strange studentâ mean?
Jo Woo-rin asked curiously. Professor Boladi kindly answered.
âOutstanding students need appropriate teaching.â
aha! Like Professor Bagrek always hitting Lee Han?
âIâve never done that.â
ââ¦â¦â
Professor Garcia looked at Professor Boladi as if he was dumbfounded.
More than that, I couldnât believe that His Highness Jo Woo-rin knew that. There were already a lot of rumors about Einroguard, but I suddenly became worried when I thought they might spread further.
âHmm. So, Delet student. âNext week is the midterm exam⦠How is the lecture on âPoison Bone and Bloodâ going?â
âoh. âThatâs it.â
Delet hesitated.
In fact, for the midterm exam for Poison, Bone, and Blood, the plan was to have students choose a topic of their choice and then learn a moderately difficult magic.
The problem was that âSummoning a Skeleton Golemâ was enough to overflow as a midterm topic.
I was planning on having my junior summon me again and skipping the test, as I would already be attending a lot of lecturesâ¦
â¦but unfortunately, there were two professors and a dragon in front of me, so I couldnât help but notice.
âBut Professor Garcia, youâll understand, right?â
I didnât know about the other two, but I believed that Professor Garcia would definitely take their side. Wasnât he also a student of the previous school?
âActually, I was going to do this.â
Professor Garcia listened with a cautious expression to Diretteâs explanation.
Surprisingly, Professor Garcia did not accept easily. Of course, I knew that Lee Han was having a hard time, but that was because Delet could have taken responsibility later.
I had to make a careful decision because I could have found fault with the skeleton principalâs personality and sent him to the punishment room.
Delet goes into the room next to Professor Verdus.
Even thinking about it, it made no sense.
âSounds good.â
ââ¦â¦â
Professor Garcia once again looked at Professor Boladi as if he were dumbfounded.
This professor is real!
âprofessor!â
â?â
âWhat are you going to do if the principal finds fault with you later?â
âI donât think so.â
ââ¦Of course, I donât think so, but⦠Direit student. âI think itâll be okay though.â
Professor Garcia had doubts in his heart.
Arenât you worried that Direth is not Professor Boladiâs student?
âItâs even scarier because someone who didnât have any disciples now has a discipleâ¦â
Then everything has been decided, right? Yihan Yihan! Show me the skeleton golem!
Jo Woo-rin urged Lee Han, squeezing the telekinetic defense force field around his body with force.
Seeing that, Lee Han once again thought that it was fortunate that he had learned telekinesis magic.
âThe crazy alter ego was helpful though. ⦠for a moment. Isnât this Stockholm Syndrome?â
âPlease wait. âI will summon you.â
For Lee Han, it would have been very welcome if he could reduce the number of midterm lectures in advance.
At first, I was worried about how I would get through all these lectures, but I thought things might be easier if I could narrow them down like this first.
âIf you miss the âAdvanced Fantasy Magic and Spiritual Science Theoryâ, âWand Materials and Magic Amplificationâ, and âExtremely Beautiful Creaturesâ lectures in the exam, and in addition the âPoison Bones and Bloodâ lecture⦠Professor Garciaâs lecture âIntermediate Combat Magicâ Understanding ã ãElemental Magic and Its Applicationsã ãCrazy Precognitive Magicsã ãWith One Drop of Potion Instead of Complex Magicã ãThe Sword and Lifeã ãThe Languages of the Empire That Become Blood and Fleshã ãAncient Artifacts and the Tragedy of Summoning Magic Historyã ãFrom Caterpillars to Dragonsã ãA Wizardâs Life with Plantsã ãPractical Healing Magicã ãJeong Ki Shinã⦠Hmm. I guess I should stop thinking.â
Lee Han, who was considering the remaining lectures, quickly stopped.
I had a feeling that if I continued to question it further, great damage would be done to my soul.
ââ¦Move!â
After taking out the bones of a large monster with added dark and blood elements, Lee Han, who had memorized the spell with Gong Gong, gave an order.
Then the shape of the bone changed and it became a large summoned beast. It was a medium-sized skeleton golem reinforced with the dark and blood elements.
Jo Woo-rin clapped and praised.
Amazing!
âItâs well made.â
âNot bad.â
Hearing the praise from the dragon and the two professors, not only Lee Han but also Direth secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Since there is only one student, the evaluation of the lecture is directly related to that one studentâs evaluation.
Lee Han! Lee Han! Let me move forward!
âyes. yes.â
Ancient black magic summoning, which involved direct commands made by the wizard rather than contracts and summons, had the advantage of being able to perform such miscellaneous tasks without complaint.
Jo Woo-rin was overjoyed when he saw the skeleton golem radiating dark red energy.
He had only seen races that were much smaller than him, but now he had someone big enough to play around with.
Lee Han! Jo Woo-rin will try to beat that bad guy!
âWell. âI trust only Your Majesty.â
With flattery, Lee Han delicately controlled the skeleton golem.
As we did not want to hit Jourin just in case, we had to deal with the skeleton golem delicately while pretending to attack him.
Swish â
When the skeleton golem threw its fist in the air, Joulin quickly spread his wings to dodge.
Lee Han didnât notice because he was concentrating, but Professor Boladi took additional notes.
Response speed â top notch.
Dragons were an extremely rare race in the empire, and the differences between each individual were great. Since it can grow and change significantly in just one day, we had to carefully assess the situation.
That way, there will be no accidents when the disciple fights the dragon.
Jo Woo-rinâs strike!
Jo Woo-rin shouted a cool technique and swung his front foot.
Lee Han, who thought it was over, gave up the golemâs chest instead of defending or evading.
It was strengthened by feeding it dark and blood elements based on the bones of a large monster, but it could not block the dragonâs claws, which contained mysterious and powerful magical power.
Kwasik!
The skeleton golem fell with a loud noise. Jo Woo-rin flapped his wings and shouted.
Lee Han! Jo Woo-rin defeated the bad guy!
âYour Majesty is the future of the empire!â
âHeâs my junior, but I think heâs too good at flattery.â
Delet thought to himself.
Even so, the professors never thought they would win the favor of high-ranking royal family members like this.
I had no idea what they were going to do later.
Are you trying to become Principal Einrogard?
Jo Woo-rin looked at Lee Hanâs eyes and spoke carefully, wondering if it was fun to have just wrestled with a skeleton golem.
Jo Woo-rin wants to compete againâ¦
âShall I summon you? âItâs not that difficult.â
really?!
It wasnât that difficult as you could keep summoning it as long as you had magical power. When Lee Han nodded, Jo Woo-rin screamed in joy and tried to hug him.
âUgh. I guess Iâll have to make my telekinesis stronger in the future.â
Lee Hanâs shield screamed at the dragonâs strength, which grew stronger as he became happier.
really! Canât you make this bad boy stronger?
âhmm. âI think it would be difficult at my current level.â
The bones of the large monster that Direth gave were strengthened almost to their limit thanks to Lee Hanâs own strengthening of the dark and blood elements.
Such reinforcement was not possible indefinitely. Of course, this was only possible within the limitations of materials.
Either we had to find a better reagent than the bones of large monsters, or Lee Han had to learn a way to magically increase efficiency.
After hearing the explanation, Jo Woo-rin spoke again with sparkling eyes.
Jo Woo-rin has a good method!
âWhat is that?â
here!
Jo Woo-rin put out his front paw and spread it out. There was an ingredient he had never seen before.
âWhat is this?â
Joourinâs teeth!
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Hanâs face turned pale.
