Chapter 109
Anger
Anger
Ihan was flustered.
A reaction that wasn’t among the professors’ reactions that Ihan knew came out.
‘What did I do wrong?’
But no matter how much he thought about it, Ihan hadn’t done anything wrong.
‘Is it because I have a lot of mana?’
Ihan asked cautiously.
“Is it difficult to learn illusion magic because you have too much mana?”
“No?”
“Then could it be because of lack of control?”
“No. That’s enough. That… Ah. Right. I guess I should tell you.”
Professor Kirmin pondered for a while before deciding to confide in Lee Han.
“Wordanas. Right now, you have…”
Lee Han was nervous.
When the professor usually spoke that seriously, it meant a serious problem had come up.
Like when Professor Garcia diagnosed Lee Han, who had just enrolled, with the incurable disease of mana overdose syndrome…
“Too many professors have their eyes on her.”
Lee Han was dumbfounded.
I get that mana overdose is a thing, but is professor overdose also a thing?
‘The latter does look much more critical.’
While the former could manage to survive somehow, the latter appeared to be in mortal danger.
“Why is that…”
“Think about it carefully. Wouldn’t it be too difficult if you learned illusion magic on top of studying under those professors?”
‘Aha.’
Lee Han understood what Professor Kirmin meant.
And I was moved.
With what he just said, Professor Kirmin could claim a spot in the top 1% of character among the professors at this school.
At that level, it seemed like he could be given the seat next to Professor Garcia.
“No.”
Ihan said firmly.
I might skip other magic classes, but I couldn’t possibly miss a lecture with a professor like this.
First, I need to get close to them!
You never know what might happen later, so if you don’t listen now just because it’s difficult, you might end up regretting it.
No matter how kind a professor may be, a professor is still a professor.
If I went later and said “Professor, I’d like to audit the class even now,” I might get a response like “Sorry, there’s no room.”
“I can hear you. Professor. I am prepared.”
Lee Han’s eyes blazed with passion. Professor Kirmin was surprised by his determined expression.
I didn’t expect you to show this much passion.
His sculpted face glowed with determination, creating an even more striking impression.
“It must be really hard.”
“It’s okay.”
“Got it. Then tell them to join starting from the next meeting.”
Professor Kirmin patted Ihan’s shoulder.
The always passionate student made the teacher happy.
It would have been perfect if he had talent like Wardanaz.
“It’ll be tough, so be careful.”
“Yes. And don’t worry too much about it. You just need to make sure you don’t take on any more lecture courses, right?”
Professor Kirmin looked at Ihan with a strange expression in his eyes.
It was a gaze like that of a sorcerer who had foreseen an unfortunate fate, but sadly, Ihan failed to notice it.
After Professor Kirmin finished his lecture and left, the students prepared to get up from their seats.
Among all the classes in a week, Professor Garcia, who was part angel—no, part troll—was the only one who didn’t torment students with assignments.
However, Professor Garcia said with an apologetic expression.
“Everyone, hold on a moment. There’s a quiz this week.”
The students looked at Professor Garcia as if they had been hurt and betrayed. However, Professor Garcia, though he might feel sorry, did not back down.
“So everyone should get ready.”
“What will be on the test?”
Professor Garcia nodded and answered a student’s question.
“We’ve spent a month learning the basics of magic and exploring various fields of magic. I’m thinking of asking how well you’ve learned about it.”
“B… But Professor! I don’t know much about dark magic…”
“Are you going to ask about summoning magic too?”
The students murmured.
Most of the students who came here had strong opinions.
Students who had a particular magic they wanted to learn showed little interest in magic from other fields.
Professor Garcia reassured the students, calming them down.
“Everyone, please calm down. I’ll tailor the questions to each student individually. I won’t ask questions about fields that don’t match your aptitude or that you’re not interested in.”
Sighs of relief escaped from everywhere.
Lee Han, who had been feeling relieved along with his friends, hesitated.
‘Wait.’
Come to think of it, Ihan was participating in all the different fields of magic that came up in Professor Garcia’s lectures.
…Huh?
Don’t tell me that…
‘Do I really have to prepare everything?’
For the first time since entering the school, Ihan experienced true fear.
Tuesday.
The 【Basic Mount Training】 class was held in a field a little farther away than usual.
Professor Lightning Step was waiting for his students, lighting his pipe.
“L-look at that!”
“So cute!”
Gasps of amazement erupted from the students.
Behind Professor Lightning Step were bear cubs.
The round and adorable bear cubs were so cute that you could forget what they would look like when fully grown.
The students, worn down by school life, made age-appropriate expressions when they saw the bear cubs.
“The professor really does care about us after all.”
“That’s right. We deserve to rest like this.”
After struggling with assignments and lectures for several weeks, and now even pop quizzes.
Rolling around in the fields for one lecture wouldn’t be punishable.
Moreover, unlike the burning puppies from before, those bear cubs looked completely harmless. It was definitely going to be a break.
“You’re here?”
“Yes!”
The students shouted in unison. Their voices were twice as bright and cheerful as usual.
“Good. Since you’re here, let’s have a pop quiz. Each of you go get your horse.”
“?”
“????”
The students were bewildered by Professor Lightningstep’s words.
“What about the bear cubs?”
“Bear cubs?”
Professor Lightningstep removed his pipe from his mouth and turned his head back. Then he spoke as if understanding.
“Ah. Those bear cubs aren’t for today’s lecture, a friend asked me to look after them for a while.”
“…”
The students were more disappointed than when they met the Skeleton Principal. Professor Lightningstep laughed heartily.
“If you want to play with bear cubs, wait a few more decades until you retire. Now. Go get your horses! Let’s see how close you’ve become!”
“We’re not ready yet, so if we could do it next time…”
“Originally, beasts don’t wait for you. When a hungry beast attacks you, will you ask it to wait for you to prepare? Move!”
The students moved with anxious and nervous expressions.
Students who didn’t usually visit the stables often were naturally anxious, but even those who visited frequently were equally anxious.
-Will it be okay?
-Last time it wouldn’t listen to me and tried to run away…
The horses in the stables were fierce and bad-tempered.
Even students who thought they had become close weren’t sure how the horses would react when completely unleashed.
And Lee Han was no exception.
‘Hmm.’
It might have been his imagination, but Lee Han thought the white horse he was assigned seemed to have the worst temper in the stables.
Being the largest and having the best stamina, its temperament was incomparable to other horses.
Sometimes he genuinely wondered if it was really a horse.
‘Did Professor Thunderstep feed it his potion?’
But if the white horse had wildness, Lee Han had intelligence. Lee Han had found his own way to handle the white horse.
“Here.”
Lee Han immediately put mana-absorbing iron bracelets and a belt on the white horse. The white horse snorted in displeasure, but Lee Han was firm.
The moment he went out without putting them on, there was no telling how the white horse might betray him.
-Puhheung. Puheung.
The white horse was cunning and clever.
Realizing that force didn’t work on this crazy new student, it sent pitiful glances with sorrowful eyes.
However, Lee Han was more ruthless than the white horse.
“Sorry. No threats or pleas will change my mind.”
-Puheuhheung!
The white horse glared at Lee Han. But the artifacts already on its body were steadily draining the white horse’s mana.
With its energy depleted, the white horse obediently followed when Lee Han pulled the reins.
Just you wait and see!
“Amazing…!”
“That violent horse!”
The White Tiger Tower students murmured at the sight of Lee Han bringing out the white horse.
When he was first assigned the most savage horse in the stables, everyone thought Wardanaz wouldn’t be able to tame it and mocked him.
But now, the white horse had become surprisingly docile and was following Lee Han.
The sight of the white horse with its natural dignity matched well with the Wardanaz family boy, as if they had been together for a long time.
Angrago unconsciously said.
“Wardanaz is impressive.”
“…Angrago, are you crazy?? Why suddenly?”
“Did you get hit by some magic on the island?”
“No, no. It was separate from Wardanaz being bad, I was talking about his abilities!”
When his friends were shocked, Angrago hastily made excuses.
“Angrago. You’re weird. You’re not even cursing Wardanaz.”
“Maybe Wardanaz really did something to you…”
“I said no! I hate Wardanaz! I hate Wardanaz!”
Meanwhile, not only Lee Han but students began carefully walking out one by one, leading their horses.
Naturally, there were many Black Turtle Tower students who had most diligently cared for their horses.
There were quite a few Phoenix Tower and White Tiger Tower students too…
Blue Dragon Tower students were the fewest.
Lee Han was embarrassed by his friends.
‘Such lazy guys.’
This was probably why Salko of House Tutanta disliked nobles.
Being cursed for being lazy was natural.
Professor Lightningstep placed a sundial on a rock and said.
“If you’ve brought out your horse, follow the path. You’ll come to a river, give them water there and come back to pass.”
Gainando, covered in mud, whispered.
“Couldn’t we just give them well water and come back without them knowing?”
“Oh right. If anyone lies about giving water without taking them to the riverside, I’ll dunk them in the river.”
“…”
Gainando quietly brushed the mud from his hair.
“Now. Begin!”
Professor Lightningstep shouted while tapping his pipe.
Students scattered chaotically across the fields began following the path one by one, leading their horses.
Students like the Imperial Princess elegantly mounted their horses and slowly followed the path with their followers.
Several other students who had become quite close to their horses also rode along the path. Other friends looked at them enviously.
Yoner could also mount his horse. However, instead of mounting, Yoner looked at Lee Han.
Lee Han was about to walk, leading his horse by the reins.
“Not riding?”
“It might get tired if I ride.”
-Puheung!
Instead of being grateful for Lee Han’s consideration, the white horse neighed in protest, asking him to remove the bracelets and belt.
Lee Han ignored it.
‘Walking would be safer.’
Absorbing mana to make it docile was good, but at the same time, it could weaken its stamina.
It would be terrible if the white horse collapsed while riding. Lee Han planned to just walk together.
Yoner shrugged and grabbed his horse’s reins.
“Yoner. You could ride though.”
“I’m also worried my horse might get tired if I ride.”
Yoner’s brown-furred horse made a grateful sound and nuzzled Yoner’s cheek.
Yoner laughed ticklishly. Lee Han suddenly felt a little sad.
‘Why don’t spirits or horses…’
“And we’re friends.”
“Thanks.”
Lee Han spoke sincerely.
Bang!
Behind them, Gainando was flung out of the stables and rolled around. He had been thrown while trying to forcibly drag out a horse he wasn’t even close to.
Clay-covered Gainando shouted.
“Guys! Wait! You’ll come with me, right? We’re friends!”
“Shall we depart?”
“Yes.”
Lee Han and Yoner departed ruthlessly.
Friends were supposed to do chores together in the stables in the morning.
