Chapter 26
Chapter 026
Most of the students who entered the magic school thought of magic as an end rather than a means.
Most of them don’t think, ‘Hey, I should learn fire magic so I can light a fire at camp and learn water magic so I can drink water for free when I’m thirsty’.
Usually, I have the ambition to ‘clean up the basics, learn the magic I want, pioneer a new realm, and gain enlightenment’!
As such, Nylia did not think much about flame-generating magic.
In the first place, lighting a fire was something that could be done without a staff and spell. Neilia was confident enough to light a fire with just a stone and a branch.
It would have been better if he had the right aptitude for water magic, which he had been interested in for a long time…
“Nilia. Be thankful for the magic you have.”
“Uh… uh? That’s right.”
Overwhelmed by the atmosphere Lee Han radiated, Nilia nodded involuntarily.
‘Did you praise my magic??’
As a descendant of the Wordanaz family, a master of magic, it was clear that Nylia herself would not allow herself to belittle her own magic.
Nilia was slightly embarrassed and turned her head.
Of course, Lee Han was grumbling inwardly.
‘If you only knew how to control your magic, you’d learn fire magic first. I envy you.’
* * *
As they thawed their frozen hands and feet, quenched their burning thirst with water, and warmed up bread and cheese and put it in their mouths, the party’s fatigue was relieved to some extent.
‘I guess I’ll have to go outside and check the undead.’
Lee Han thought he should go outside and see if the undead were still there.
If it was the crazy headmaster’s personality, he could still have stayed.
“Nilia.”
“good. Let’s go.”
Nilia also stood up from her seat as if she noticed Lee Han’s thoughts.
When they came out of the cave, a thick darkness greeted them.
I could tell even after I hadn’t walked that far.
“……”
“Damn it.”
Far below the mountain was still bright. It was as if a belt of fire was wrapped around the base of the mountain. It was a siege net created by Undead summoned beasts.
“Aren’t you really crazy?”
“Right… that’s right, but can I say that?”
Nylia trembled slightly, as if she was afraid of cursing the headmaster.
“are you okay. no one is listening You can curse.”
“Is that so?”
“Nilia. Magic comes from free thinking. The principal will want us to curse the principal and think freely.”
Lee Han had an excellent ability to talk bullshit with a serious face.
Nilia, who didn’t know much about magic, started to shake again when she said bullshit seriously with a sculpted face.
Is that… is it?
“School principal bastard! A grizzly bear! The wolf will catch it at night…”
Passasak-
“Ahh! sorry! sorry!”
As soon as she heard a rustling sound in front of her, Nilia cried and clung to Lee Han.
Lee Han threw a wary gaze as he slowly removed Nilia from his chest like a leech.
“Nilia. be careful. There is someone.”
A voice came from the other side as if they had noticed Lee Han.
“…who is there?”
“Tell me from there.”
“White Tiger Tower.”
“shit. Not all were caught.”
Lee Han clicked his tongue.
Somehow, they said that the undead were not disappearing, so there were students from the White Tiger Tower who escaped without being caught even in the midst of the commotion.
Once more there was a rustling sound, and the White Tiger Tower students appeared in complete disarray. It looked almost like a beggar.
“Is that it?”
“no. It’s the White Tiger Tower.”
* * *
– Punishment for students who disobey the Great Principal’s orders and escape.
-Punishment for the students who disobeyed the great principal’s order and escaped.
Unlike Lee Han and his party, there were countless skeletons waiting for the White Tiger Tower students who rushed out to break through the siege.
The Bone Stalkers attacked with rattling sounds and ghastly words.
Moreover, the club made of bone he was holding wasn’t lethal, but one hit slowed him down, two hits made him stop, and three hits knocked him down.
“evil!”
“These bastards are cowardly with numbers… ghast!”
The students of the White Tiger Tower, who showed off their polished swordsmanship and took down the bone chasers with wooden swords, eventually fell one by one.
– Suppression complete.
– Suppression complete.
“…consolation! Get out of here!”
And among the White Tiger Tower students, Giselle was the first to grasp the situation.
‘This wasn’t made to be pierceable!’
Lee Han did not believe the principal at all, but Giselle mistakenly believed that he could break through the siege because he inadvertently believed what the principal said.
To keep going down, there was only one ending to be caught.
Giselle took the rest of the students and started running up the mountain.
Fortunately, the bone chasers didn’t follow them all the way up the mountain.
“Heh… heh heh…”
“Moradi. Upward… Whoops. can i run away? There is no way.”
“The summoned beasts summoned by wizards do not last long. It will disappear over time.”
If there was Lee Han next to him, he would have pointed out, ‘That’s the case of a poor wizard, and the number of summons summoned by the principal would be that much?’
They thought that Giselle’s words were plausible, so they nodded their heads.
“What are you doing in the meantime?”
“Let’s wait. Recover your stamina while resting. Light it… no. I’ll have to find a place to rest first. Let’s find a place where we can avoid the wind.”
At Giselle’s words, the White Tiger Tower students began to search the surroundings.
Although she wasn’t as good at darkness or climbing mountains like Nilia, the White Tiger Tower students had stamina.
The students of the White Tiger Tower continued to move despite the fact that their muscles were fatigued and their throats were burning with thirst.
Passasac-
“I heard a sound over there.”
“Isn’t it a wild beast?”
“If it’s a wild animal, I’d rather catch it. It feels like the skin on my stomach is attached to my back.”
However, the sound that came out was not the sound of an animal, but a human voice.
The students of the White Tiger Tower looked shocked.
I never thought there would be someone else in the middle of the night.
“…who is there?”
“Tell me from there.”
“White Tiger Tower.”
“shit. Not all were caught.”
Surprisingly, it was the students of the Blue Dragon Tower.
* * *
“Come in.”
The White Tiger Tower students cringed and entered the cave.
Their faces were full of awkwardness.
It hadn’t been long since we had fought each other, so it couldn’t be comfortable to receive help like this.
“Sit down to eat and drink.”
Lee Han said expressionlessly. Gainando, who was next to him, spoke softly.
“We don’t have anything to eat, so why…”
“Shh.”
Durgyu hit Gainando’s side.
The students of the White Tiger Tower suddenly appeared.
Seeing how he looked like a beggar, I could guess how hard he had suffered in the middle of the night.
Originally, Lee Han could have kicked them out.
I was treated like that by the students of the White Tiger Tower, but no one said anything when I kicked them out.
However, Lee Han saw their poor performance and called them into the cave.
And they gave out food and drink.
It was honestly touching.
‘Lee Han is truly honorable!’
It was easy to be kind to an ally. The really difficult thing was to be kind to the enemy.
Durgyu hoped that Lee Han’s kindness this time would serve as an opportunity for the White Tiger Tower students to reflect and reconcile.
“……”
Inside the cave, only the sound of mumbling sounded quietly.
Giselle carefully tried to comprehend the situation around her.
‘How are the Blue Dragon Tower guys here?’
Giselle did not expect Lee Han to follow Giselle.
Who would have expected that students from the Blue Dragon Tower, not the Black Turtle Tower, would do such a despicable thing.
Instead, Giselle thought otherwise.
‘…You saw these on the map too.’
Otherwise there would be no reason to be here tonight.
It was clear that he had climbed up before the students of the White Tiger Tower and was hiding in a cave due to the commotion below.
Giselle pursed her lips, wondering what to do.
Yihan, from the Wardanaz family, was kind, but that was that and this was this.
Giselle had been taught this way ever since she was in the Moradi family.
– Giselle. As you know, the Moradi family doesn’t forget their grudge. But there’s a hidden story behind it. That is, grace is repaid when you remember it.
Those who were swayed by feelings of gratitude were the ones the Moradi family despised the most.
A member of the Moradi family had to know how to calmly refuse even if the benefactor who saved his life made a desperate request right in front of his eyes.
‘How should I use it? I have to buy a favor for now.’
Meanwhile, one of the White Tiger Tower students hesitantly opened his mouth.
At least it was to ask my close friend Therugyu what was going on.
“Choi. Ohh…”
Kung!
“?!”
The white tiger tower student who was about to speak out fell forward.
Durgyu was surprised to see that.
‘what?!’
At first, I thought I was just passing out from exhaustion.
But it wasn’t.
thud! thud!
The other students fell forward as if they had eaten something wrong.
“…Damn it!”
Realizing it belatedly, Giselle shouted in a sharp voice and spat out the water in her mouth.
However, because he had already drank a lot of water, his mind became hazy.
‘A drug in the water…?!’
“late. I realized too late.”
Lee Han said coldly.
Giselle glared at Lee Han with a lively glare even while her mind was clouded.
Instead of the soft, slender expression I had seen when we first met, a sharp and bloody expression appeared like a sharpened knife.
It was Giselle’s true expression that even the White Tiger Tower students had never seen before.
“Leave… see you. Wodanaz…!”
The last thing Giselle saw was the Wardanaz boy staring down at her expressionlessly, with a chiseled, cold face.
Finally, Giselle fell asleep.
* * *
‘Did I get a grudge for no reason?’
Contrary to Giselle’s misunderstanding, Lee Han had some regrets inside.
There’s no way the White Tiger Tower students who suffered like this will ever forget their grudge.
But what can I do?
The first ones I hit were the students of the White Tiger Tower.
If someone hates you for no reason, make sure to give him a reason!
“What what what what is this?!”
“The water is poisonous!? I drank too!?”
Durgyu was so surprised that he couldn’t speak properly. It was the same with Cainan Island.
Lee Han deliberately conspired to exclude the two.
Durgyu and Gainando are all friends who are far from managing facial expressions. I was told that there could be a problem.
“Cainan Island. do not worry. Because it’s not poison. And it wasn’t even in the water you drank. I will capture them and leave them where the bone chasers are.”
It wasn’t because of a personal grudge that Lee Han drank sleeping pills in the water the White Tiger Tower students drank.
Who are the skeletons down there looking for?
It was clear that he was looking for the White Tiger Tower students.
We need to catch these guys quickly and offer them up!
“that…! But why do you have to do something like this…?”
“Durgyu. Think carefully. If we had confronted him head-on, he would have been caught out because he was noisy. Besides, would this Moradi stay still? He must have tried to catch me by the ankles.”
Durgyu was no match for Lee Han in words.
After hearing the words, Durgyu felt persuaded again.
“But still, this is a bit… More than that, where did you get the medicine from?”
Yoner raised his hand with a slightly embarrassed expression.
“I found a sleeping plant on the way up earlier.”
Since Yoner knew how to distinguish quite a few flowers and grasses, I was able to find a sleeping plant with white stems as I climbed up.
-oh. Look at this.
-What is this?
-It’s a sleeping plant. If you make powder and drink it with water, you can sleep well.
-Let’s take it.
-huh?
-Let’s take it. I don’t know when I will use it.
-Do you have anything to write about?
Yoner tilted his head and took the sleeping weed. He wondered if there was anything to use.
But, surprisingly, there was something to write about.
…I really didn’t expect to write like this.
