Once he realized it worked, Lee Han’s reaction became even more intense.
Lee Han slapped his forehead and exclaimed.
“Amazing! As expected of Priest Siana from the Flaming Order!! Amazing!!!”
“…Are you hurt somewhere?”
Yoner whispered in a small voice so others couldn’t hear.
No matter how he thought about it, it seemed like Lee Han had eaten something wrong.
However, everyone except Yoner was satisfied. Especially Priest Siana looked very, very satisfied.
“As expected of Lee Han of the Wardanaz Family… You have a good eye.”
“Even a blind person without eyes would be able to tell how amazing this potion is.”
“You’re too kind.”
Priest Siana covered her rising smile with her sleeve and laughed softly. Lee Han also smiled back at her.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Priest Siana returned to the Phoenix Tower students with a very satisfied expression.
Lee Han let out a sigh.
‘That was exhausting.’
Showing such intense reactions that he didn’t really feel was more tiring than he thought.
But it was worth showing such a reaction.
Priest Siana had returned to the Phoenix Tower students and was going on about Lee Han’s praise.
-As befitting someone from the Wardanaz Family, he’s so polite and has such a good eye…
-Did something happen, Priest?
-Nothing like that, he really has a good eye…
Seeing that reaction, it seemed the Phoenix Tower students wouldn’t be a problem.
“Yoner. Even if you get first place in alchemy class, I won’t put poison in your cup.”
“You’re not really sick somewhere, are you?”
Yoner’s eyes filled with worry.

The students who finished first aid began their return journey.
Students whose broken legs hadn’t healed were carried on the backs of healthy students.
Fortunately, no particular monsters appeared during their descent.
“Bartrek. Wardanaz didn’t do anything strange to you, did he?”
“Bartrek. Did Wardanaz perhaps use mind control on you…”
“Bartrek. Did Wardanaz use forbidden black magic on you…”
“I told you nothing happened!”
Bartrek was dumbfounded.
Even when he told them Lee Han had helped him, they didn’t listen properly.
“And we’re all first-years, so how could he cast forbidden black magic?”
“I thought the same way at first. That it must be false rumors. But look at Wardanaz’s magical abilities.”
“I didn’t believe it either, but seeing Wardanaz gives weight to the idea that it’s not just rumors.”
The White Tiger Tower students nodded with serious expressions.
Surprisingly, they were half-seriously believing the rumors.
“Probably the Wardanaz Family secretly trained him in magic from childhood.”
“How frightening, the Wardanaz Family.”
The powerful telekinesis magic Lee Han had shown (though it was a targeting failure) and what he’d displayed in basic black magic lectures had already been exaggerated into circulating rumors.
Students from other towers who’d had quite a few opportunities to interact with Lee Han didn’t have such strange misunderstandings.
Even if they misunderstood, it was to the extent of ‘He does have charisma befitting the Wardanaz Family’ or ‘I heard he rules the Blue Dragon Tower students with ruthless, merciless rules?’
But the White Tiger Tower students were different.
They were genuinely seriously scared!
“Like Moradi and others said, Wardanaz doesn’t seem like such a scary person…”
Bartrek tried to clear up the misunderstanding.
Since his life had been saved, he felt he should do at least this much.
“Bartrek. Who cast the magic that brought down the golem earlier?”
“…Wardanaz did cast it.”
“Is that flame ordinary magic?”
Bartrek was left speechless. He couldn’t argue back.
To be defeated by logic from guys who believed such ridiculous false rumors…!
“Hey.”
“!”
While the White Tiger Tower students were chattering, Lee Han approached.
The students who spotted Lee Han instinctively grabbed their wooden swords and tensed their bodies, eyes trembling.
‘…What kind of herbivores are they?’
“Wh, wh, wh, what is it, Wardanaz…?”
“Nothing much… You all worked hard, so you must be tired.”
Lee Han pulled out snacks he’d brought in his backpack.
They were the oldest snacks among the foods he’d stored in the food storage room, no, his private room pantry, but they tasted good enough.
Flat-baked bread with sweet jam and sugar-sprinkled cookies.
Lee Han decided to clear out the food before it expired and earn some goodwill at the same time.
Though the White Tiger Tower students had picked a fight first, making him think ‘Who says they dislike me for no reason? I’ll give them a reason,’ Lee Han actually disliked meaningless fights.
“Th… thank you, Wardanaz.”
The White Tiger Tower students made conflicted expressions between ‘Will we be okay if we eat this?’ and ‘But we’re so hungry.’
And the latter won.
At an age where they’d chew on stones, such hunger was hard for anyone to endure.
“Bartrek of the Bark Family? I heard you’re from the Eastern Region. You take these rice balls and rice cakes.”
“…!”
Bartrek was slightly moved by the food Lee Han offered.
To think he’d show such thoughtful consideration, knowing Bartrek was from the Eastern Region.
Since the Empire was so vast, students weren’t very interested in foods that weren’t from their own regions.
Moreover, Wardanaz probably wasn’t from the Eastern Region either.
Yet he showed such kindness.
Maybe the rumors about Wardanaz really were exaggerated.
After Lee Han left, the White Tiger Tower students who had hurriedly stuffed snacks into their stomachs seemed to think similarly.
“Maybe we misunderstood…”
“Did you guys hear?! I overheard the Blue Dragon Tower guys talking, and they said Wardanaz brought down the mud golem on their side with one water magic spell!! They said he summoned a dragon made of water???”
“…”
“…”
The White Tiger Tower students were horrified.
Really…
Wardanaz really is scary!

Professor Thunderstep, who had been clinking glasses back and forth, suddenly realized.
‘Huh? There are no vegetables?’
The vegetables that his disciple Lee Han had harvested were also brought along, but when he came to his senses, they had all disappeared.
Since the Skeleton Principal couldn’t have eaten them, there was only one culprit.
“What’s the matter?”
Professor Ingoldel noticed Professor Thunderstep’s gaze and asked with a puzzled expression.
“Oh, it’s nothing. Just… you really like vegetables.”
Oh my, Thunderstep. To still hold such prejudices that elves unconditionally love vegetables… such stereotypes that only worked in ancient times. As a representative of this school, it saddens me. Do you like beer then, since you’re a dwarf?

“I do like it though?”
“Oh dear. I apologize.”
Professor Ingoldel apologized.
“It’s not that I only like vegetables, but they were strangely delicious so I kept eating them.”
“Is that so?”
You don’t really like vegetables anyway, do you?
You don’t really like vegetables anyway, do you?
You don’t really like vegetables anyway, do you?
“That’s not true? I eat them well when I do eat them.”
At most you’d eat a little soaked in meat juices. Why are you scolding Professor Ingoldel over such a thing?

“I’m truly sorry…”
“It’s fine! Ah. Please stop!”
Professor Thunderstep resolved never to invite the Skeleton Principal to his cabin again.
Since the Skeleton Principal couldn’t eat food or drink alcohol, he was finding life’s pleasures in tormenting others.
‘But I am curious.’
It’s human nature to become curious about what you can’t have. Professor Thunderstep smacked his lips.
The students are returning. What did I say? That they would all manage well on their own, right?

“!”
Professor Ingoldel jumped up and rushed to the door. At this sight, the Skeleton Principal shook his head disapprovingly.
With such a soft heart…
With such a soft heart…
With such a soft heart…
* * *
The students who spotted Professor Thunderstep and Professor Ingoldel waiting weren’t surprised.
They already knew from what Lee Han had told them.
Instead, they glared with resentful gazes.
‘When I become the Empire’s Archmage later, I’ll crush these professors first.’
‘When I become the Empire’s greatest swordsman later, I’ll beat up these professors first.’
‘When I become a high official of the Empire later…’
Professor Thunderstep burst into cheerful laughter.
“You all had a good trip!”
“Yes… we had a very enjoyable time thanks to you, Professor.”
“I see you’re all not surprised, so you must have figured it out. Yes. This is what alchemy is about. You’d better not let your guard down in the future. Crisis can strike at any moment, in any situation.”
“…”
”
“…
“
”
The students seriously considered plans to ambush Professor Thunderstep.

They wanted to throw an unexpected crisis at that professor!
Professor Ingoldel apologized with a sorry expression.
“I’m sorry, everyone. I really tried to stay behind…”
“I’m sure you did.”
“Hmph. They’re all the same.”
“?!”
Even the White Tiger Tower students glared at Professor Ingoldel. Professor Ingoldel was flustered.
“It’s true! The Principal appeared and forcibly teleported me…”
“That’s enough, Professor.”
“We won’t trust anyone anymore. Isn’t this what the school wanted?”
The students who had gone through trials had somehow become more mature and hardened.
Regardless of which tower they belonged to, they had basically developed distrust toward professors.
When his disciples, with whom he had shared swords and exchanged souls, cast distrustful gazes, Professor Ingoldel felt his heart tear apart.
“…”
Professor Thunderstep pretended not to notice Professor Ingoldel glaring at him.
‘It’s not my fault, Professor Ingoldel. Blame Gonadaltes.’
Lee Han tilted his head at Professor Ingoldel’s reaction.
‘Huh? Did Professor Ingoldel really not know?’
Of course, that reaction could also be acting, but Professor Ingoldel’s response felt genuine.
The excuse about the Skeleton Principal appearing and kidnapping him was too absurd for anyone to believe, but…
‘It’s not really that absurd. He’s definitely the type of person who would do that.’
Whine whine whine-
The bone summon rattled as it pointed toward the cabin.
“!”
A magical power similar to the magical waves he had felt in the mountain range earlier was faintly emanating from the cabin.
At that moment, Lee Han found in his memory whose magical power that was.
That was the Principal’s magical power.
‘It was real?!’
Lee Han was shocked.
No matter what, how could he just kidnap a professor out of nowhere?
‘Come to think of it, it’s not really surprising. It’s definitely something he would do.’
Lee Han quickly regained his composure. Then he said to Professor Ingoldel.
“Professor. I believe you. The Principal must have kidnapped you.”
“Student Wardanaz…!”
Professor Ingoldel was moved to the point where tears almost formed in his eyes.
* * *
After checking on all the students, Professor Thunderstep suddenly became curious.
How did these students here solve the trial that Professor Thunderstep had prepared?
”
“So what method did you use to solve it?
“
”
“Wardanaz blew away the mud golem with 【Yumidifus’s Water Orb】 magic.”
“Wardanaz blew away the mud golem with 【Yumidifus’s Water Orb】 magic.”
“Wardanaz blew away the mud golem with 【Yumidifus’s Water Orb】 magic.”
“And Wardanaz caught the other mud golem by burning it with fire.”
“…?”
Professor Thunderstep was momentarily flustered by the series of completely unexpected statements.
He couldn’t figure out where to start pointing out the problems.
“Wait… wait. Hold on.”
“??”
“Why are mud golems appearing? What about the bull? Where did the bull go?”
“What now… Professor. Please give it a rest. Do you think we’re little children?”
The Blue Dragon Tower students snorted derisively.
Professor Thunderstep was trying to pull another trick on them.
They wouldn’t fall for it anymore!
“No…! Why are mud golems really appearing? I didn’t prepare any mud golems!”
“Ha. Of course you didn’t. They just appeared ‘by chance,’ right?”
“Did everyone hear that? Professor Thunderstep says they appeared by chance! Let’s believe him!”
“…”
Professor Thunderstep reflected very slightly on his own life.
