“Are you willing to forget the misunderstandings between us and cooperate for a better future?”
“You’d be faster dreaming of the school collapsing.”
One of the White Tiger Tower students retorted like that.
Lee Han thought that wouldn’t be too bad either.
“Of all things, for you Wardanaz to talk about cooperation!”
To some White Tiger Tower students, Lee Han was already an evil archmage.
“Because you took the flag, we lost our chance to get good grades in this 【Basic Magic Character Education】 lecture!”
“I think there’s a misunderstanding. An F isn’t confirmed yet.”
Lee Han tried to persuade the White Tiger Tower students logically.
If he could logically convince them ‘why cooperation is good for both sides,’ even those stubborn knight bastards might listen.
“Though the probability of an F is 95%!”
“Haha! Haha! An F! An F!”
“…”
Of course, there was no guarantee that his Blue Dragon Tower friends would be helpful.
Asan and Gainando tried to intervene to help Lee Han, but shrank back after receiving Lee Han’s murderous glare.
‘D-did we do something wrong?’
‘We were trying to help…’
“Think about it carefully. The Principal is giving this 【Basic Magic Character Education】 lecture for the students’ education. Do you really think he’d give an F just because you messed up one assignment?”
Of course, Lee Han thought that was possible, but he spoke without showing it at all.
“Rather, wouldn’t giving up just because you messed up one assignment be what deserves an F? If everyone works hard enough from now on, you could all get A’s by the end of the semester. And an outing pass, no less. Do you know how attractive the outside is? I know because I’ve been there once. The outside is like heaven.”
‘Excluding the Principal’s traps.’
“You don’t need to wake up early on hard beds, and you can eat whatever you want. Think about it carefully.”
The White Tiger Tower students couldn’t deny that they were being drawn in as if enchanted, even though they tried to ignore it.
Already, several students were considering ‘Should we cooperate just this once?’
However, things didn’t go that smoothly.
Giselle stepped forward and spoke up.
“Well. Would that really be the case?”
“Moradi. I know you hold a grudge against me, but my sincerity…”
Lee Han tried to sow discord, but it wasn’t easy.
It seemed her influence on the White Tiger Tower students was on a different level.
When Giselle spoke with her androgynous and sharp atmosphere, the White Tiger Tower students’ gazes focused on one place.
“Has anything ever gone well when getting involved with Wardanaz so far?”
“Moradi, you had your subordinates attack me. Don’t be fooled, everyone. Moradi is…”
“What about the friends who went to the punishment room after getting involved with Wardanaz?”
“That’s a misunderstanding. The Principal took them.”
“Also, who was it that attacked the common room last time?”
“That was also ordered by the Principal…”
Lee Han tried his best to defend himself, but the atmosphere had already shifted.
Thud-
Yoner grabbed Lee Han’s shoulder and shook his head.
It meant there was no other way.
‘Damn it.’
There were limits to pretending to be good because of what Lee Han had done. Lee Han sighed.
Was this the only way?
“Durgyu. Come here.”
“?”
The honorable orc friend of the Choi family, Durgyu, tried to approach when Lee Han called him.
“Durgyu. Don’t go.”
“Right. Something’s strange.”
Despite his friends’ words, Durgyu answered as if asking what they were talking about.
“Lee Han isn’t that kind of friend.”
“…”
Isn’t he that kind of friend?
Despite his friends’ restraint, Durgyu walked over.
“I’m here. Lee Han. What’s the matter?”
When Durgyu came close, Lee Han grabbed him and shouted fiercely.
“If you don’t cooperate, Durgyu’s life can’t be guaranteed. I’ll drag him to the lake, use him up, then throw him to the bottom!”
“…That, that bastard really!!!”
The White Tiger Tower students were shocked.
Finally, that Wardanaz bastard had shown his true colors!
Durgyu looked confused but soon understood the situation.
‘Lee Han is doing this to mediate between the two towers.’
“S-save me.”
“Durgyu!!”
When Durgyu spoke with a miserable and sad expression, several White Tiger Tower students felt their hearts breaking.
Raphadael rushed out and shouted.
“Stop it, you Wardanaz bastard! We’ll cooperate! We’ll cooperate, so leave Durgyu alone!!”
“Right. We’ll cooperate, so let Durgyu go!!”
The White Tiger Tower students shouted at Lee Han in unison.
“On your honor?”
“On our honor!”
“Good. I’ll let him go. But be careful from now on.”
Lee Han released Durgyu.
Lee Han released Deuregyu.
Ihan released Dereugyu.
Lee Han released Deuregyu.
Giselle was glaring at Ihan with a horrified expression, as if she were looking at a madman.
“See, if you had agreed to cooperate from the start, it would have been easier for both of us.”
“You… you’re more evil than I am, Wardanaz. You should be proud. I’ve never met a human like you before.”
“You’re probably the only one who thinks that.”
Ihan curtly replied to Giselle’s words and turned his head away.
Gainan nodded his head, but hesitated when his eyes met with Ihan’s.
“You don’t mean right now, do you?”
“Oh, no! I was doing neck exercises!”
A troublesome assignment had been given in 【Basic Magic Character Education】, but Lee Han and his friends couldn’t focus on it.
Not because of the cooperation with the White Tiger Tower students…
“So when are you going to explode, Lord Ihan of the Wardanaz family?”
“I’m still thinking about it.”
At Ihan’s words, Yoner whispered beside him with a puzzled voice.
“But why are you speaking formally to Priest Siana? You weren’t doing that before.”
“…Did I do that?”
Lee Han finally realized it. He had been unconsciously overwhelmed by Priest Siana’s madness.
Actually, it wasn’t Lee Han’s fault.
Anyone would be somewhat overwhelmed if someone said ‘We need potions, so let’s raid the professor’s laboratory.’
“Why are you two acting like that?”
“Haha. It’s nothing… I mean, it’s nothing.”
Yoner, perhaps sensing Lee Han’s inner thoughts, defended him instead.
“The Flameng Order sometimes doesn’t care about means and methods when it comes to alchemy.”
‘Yoner doesn’t have much talent for promoting the order.’
Actually, what was important right now wasn’t Priest Siana or the Flameng Order’s madness.
When exactly they should raid was what was truly important.
If they opened the laboratory door and made eye contact with Professor Thunderstep sitting inside, he’d probably have nightmares for about a month.
‘The time would naturally be between evening and night. But the day is the problem. Should we raid on a remaining weekday? Or on the weekend?’
Lee Han didn’t know Professor Thunderstep’s schedule exactly either.
He had met him at the cabin, but he didn’t completely know what he did during other times.
But if he casually asked Professor Thunderstep, he’d be marked as a suspect later…
“Wardanaz. You don’t need to come to the cabin today.”
Professor Lightningstep, who had come down to give the 【Basic Riding Training】 lecture, spoke to Lee Han.
Lee Han had been learning additional training knowledge to tame flying mounts after finishing chores at the cabin.
“Is there something going on?”
“I’m thinking of taking my nephew to the market. I have some things to buy.”
“Ah. I see.”
“Ah. I see.”
“Ah. I see.”
“Ah. I see.”
Lee Han carefully controlled his expression. Then he spoke with all his effort to ensure no awkwardness could be detected in his voice.
Lee Han managed his expression as much as possible. And he spoke with all his effort to ensure no awkwardness could be detected in his voice.
Lee Han carefully controlled his expression. Then he spoke with all his effort to ensure no awkwardness could be detected in his voice.
“When are you going?”
“I’ll go after my lecture ends this afternoon and probably come back tomorrow. Sorry that it’s just me and my nephew going.”
Professor Lightning Step sincerely apologized.
Honestly, I couldn’t help but think that even if other students were left behind, a student who worked as hard as this boy from the Watanaze family should be taken along.
Literally working like an ox…
“No, Professor. Aren’t school rules laws that apply equally to everyone?”
“Did Gonadaltes threaten you or something? Anyway, I get it. I’ll buy you some beer candy or something when I come back.”
The dwarves’ snack preferences were rather peculiar, but Ihan didn’t bother to point it out.
You should be grateful for anything someone buys you.
And…
‘Tonight!’
The opportunity came suddenly. Lee Han called his friends over and spoke to them secretly.
“Tonight.”
“Tonight…!”
The friends looked surprised at the suddenly arranged schedule. But no one backed out.
“Actually, that’s good. I’ll be able to get some good rest on the weekend.”
“Tonight… I’ve been waiting for this.”
Asan extended his hand with a solemn expression. Then he spoke.
“To a comfortable semester without assignments.”
“To a comfortable semester without assignments!”
Lee Han was puzzled.
When did you guys come up with this slogan?
“Stop chattering and get to your positions. Now then. You’re all working hard to bond with your horses, I’m sure. Some of you get up early to feed the horses and brush them down, while others sleep in late and just give their horse a quick pat before calling it a day.”
Gainando flinched.
“I’m not going to say anything. This school leads students to water, but it doesn’t force them to drink. Everyone has to figure things out for themselves.”
‘It seems like we’re starting by dropping it into the water…’
“Are you riding horses today?”
One of the students asked with a nervous expression.
They all still lacked the familiarity needed to ride horses and demonstrate complex equestrian skills.
“No. To get that close would take a whole semester of dedicated effort, and even that might not be enough. Today we’re going to learn how to deal with other monsters.”
Professor Lightning Step put his fingers to his mouth and blew a sharp whistle.
Then a blazing puppy came bounding out from behind, leaping and jumping.
The students, who had only encountered all sorts of crazy beings, naturally let out gasps of admiration.
But Ihan was nervous.
In this magic school, the cuter something was, the more dangerous it might have been.
That said, it’s not like scary-looking creatures aren’t dangerous…
“Anyone who likes him just because he’s cute right now is disqualified. Before you fell for his cuteness, you should have seen this fire first. The moment this puppy charges at you, half of you would be dead.
Professor Lightningstep threw a fire resistance potion. Lee Han felt slightly relieved.
‘So I’m not touching it with bare hands.’
While thinking thoughts that would have made Professor Lightningstep angry if he heard them – ‘What do you take me for?!’ – Lee Han drank the fire resistance potion.
His throat felt hot like when drinking strong liquor. When he breathed, a slightly acrid smell rose up.
“Did you finish it all? Well done. Now try to get along with that puppy for as long as possible.”
“How long does the potion’s effect last?”
“That’s for you to figure out.”
“…”
Lee Han hesitated.
‘So I have to realize the dangerous moment myself and get out?’
Training to hone a mage’s intuition for danger, without simply relying on elemental resistance magic or potions.
…It wasn’t easy to convince himself of that.
‘Damn. This definitely seems better to go last.’
Wouldn’t it be advantageous to watch the other guys’ potion times and measure them!
Lee Han concentrated.
He raised his mana to an alert state so he could activate magic at any moment if necessary.
“How long do the effects of the potion last?”
“That’s for you to figure out.”
Ihan hesitated.
‘So you’re saying I should recognize dangerous moments on my own and get out of them?’
Training that hones a mage’s instinct for danger, rather than simply relying on elemental resistance magic or potions.
…it wasn’t easy to convince myself that.
‘Damn. This last one seems like it’s definitely going to be good.’
Wouldn’t it be advantageous to time and measure the other guys’ potion durations!
Lee Han concentrated.
He raised his magical power to a state of alert readiness so he could activate magic at any moment if needed.
And then approached the puppy with a gentle smile.
The Burning Puppy made a whimpering sound with a frightened expression.
“Don’t scare it!!”
“But what did I even do…”
