Chapter 54
“So Professor Mortum gave you these bones?”
“Mrs. Wardanaz. I don’t know much about magic, but there is a saying in our industry not to associate with warlocks.”
“……”
The two friends calmly pointed out the reality.
No matter how you think about it, that bone summoner was a rather creepy gift.
There is a professor who gives something like that…
Lee Han unknowingly made an excuse.
“It’s not useless though.”
“It is, but it is creepy.”
Ratford said loyally. Of course, the content of the words was not very loyal.
Still, Yoner, perhaps noticing Lee Han’s complex mind, tried to find the strengths of the Bone Summoner.
“Still, you don’t have to give me food, you are loyal, and there are many things you can do…”
“What can I do?”
Yoner pretended not to hear Ratford and ignored him.
“…and in some way, wouldn’t it be a little cute?”
“thank you. Yoner. But when I heard it, I was blown away. This is definitely weird.”
He wanted to think that the gift he received was useful, but Lee Han could no longer deny the reality.
The Bone Summoner was strange.
“Why did you give me this bone pet as a gift?”
“Well… I’m more curious about why you gifted the bones separately.”
“Doesn’t that mean we have to find more bones all over the school and put them together?”
At Ratford’s words, Yoner laughed like it was nonsense.
“Such nonsense… wait. Isn’t that ridiculous?”
“……”
However, Lee Han couldn’t help but laugh.
Ratford’s words were too plausible.
‘Isn’t that what he really meant?’
Otherwise, the hand bones picked up by the Black Turtle Tower students would stick together like this, and there would be no way they could combine.
Of course, if you have a normal mindset, you’d think, ‘Who the hell likes a bone collecting game like that?’
There is a high possibility that students will think, ‘Students will enjoy looking for these bones, right?’
‘It’s creepy.’
Lee Han shuddered.
The distorted way of thinking of the professors was more frightening than the Bone Summon itself.
A terrifying thought that no sane person can follow!
“Wardanaz! Have you been to the black market? …Wait, what is that bone?!”
Asan Dalcard, who returned late, was frightened by the appearance of a bone summoner roaming around Lee Han.
What happened?
* * *
The number of students gathered in front of Professor Ingeldell was considerable.
Not only the Blue Dragon Tower and the Black Turtle Tower, but also the Phoenix Tower and the White Tiger Tower students were all gathered.
All the students in the alchemy class needed materials, so it was only natural.
If you miss this opportunity with the professor, it would be difficult for students to find materials in the mountains.
Professor Ingeldell opened his mouth slowly as the students gathered.
“First is safety, second is safety. Gather together with the same top students first. And among the top students, check each other’s faces and memorize the numbers. We will periodically check the number of people to see if the number has decreased.”
“……”
“……”
Professor Ingeldell had a knack for scaring students. Already, the faces of the students were stained with tension.
‘But it’s better to be nervous.’
It was right to go with more tension than to go to the mountains with the feeling of going on a picnic and go into a disaster.
All of the students at the Blue Dragon Tower knew their faces.
Not only Lee Han and Yoner, but also Asan and the princess.
Asan asked curiously.
“Wardanaz. I heard from the Black Turtle Tower students earlier that the food you cooked was so delicious.”
“It is a gross exaggeration. It was just plain stew.”
Lee Han thought the Black Turtle Tower students were exaggerating.
Originally, anything tastes good if you starve yourself.
The dish Lee Han made earlier was a simple stew made with vegetables and vegetables cut up on the spot and cooked with only oil, salt, pepper, and tomato sauce.
“no. It was really good.”
“It was really delicious.”
“?”
Lee Han was puzzled.
Even if it was Ratford, he didn’t expect Yoner to react like that.
“You didn’t even go into the meat? Isn’t it better to eat in the dorm?”
“no. Is it because we all ate together outside? I think it tasted much better.”
‘Is it because of the ingredients?’
The only reason I can guess was the freshly harvested vegetables in the stew.
As he suddenly grew up in Professor Thunderwalk’s cabin, he wondered if Professor Thunderstep had sprayed him with some special medicine.
‘this. I can’t believe the professor sprayed a precious elixir, and I didn’t bring it unknowingly.’
Lee Han regretted it for a moment.
However, thinking about it, if that was the case, Professor Woorestep should have left it so that he would not touch the garden. Isn’t that even Lee Han’s garden?
‘No matter how much I think about it, it’s still not my fault.’
I slightly regretted that if I had known the evaluation would be this good, I would have tried it too.
What the heck did it taste like…
“Wait. You are the White Tiger Tower.”
Asan Dalkad spoke to the elf with long black hair.
It was a student from the White Tiger Tower whom I had spoken to once before.
What’s unique is that instead of moving like the other students in the White Tiger Tower, they are loyal to the princess!
“I have already asked permission from my colleagues in the same tower. I will serve the princess.”
Apparently, several other tower students had already gathered around the princess.
It was astonishing loyalty.
In contrast…
Lee Han looked around. Then, one of the students of the Black Turtle Tower sneaked up on me.
“As expected, don’t you like the students of the White Tiger Tower? Shall we gather the others and have a fight?”
“……”
What do you guys think of me?
* * *
“This is good. Let each one gather his ingredients.”
How many hours did you walk on the mountain path? Professor Ingeldell stopped when he saw a field of flowers.
Seeing the students moving in twos and threes, Professor Lee Elf put on a happy expression.
Contrary to what I was worried about, the students moved in an orderly manner.
The students felt it too.
In order to survive in this school, we have no choice but to stick together.
‘Everyone is doing well.’
In every tower, there were some students who acted as leaders.
Although their personalities and methods were all different, it was undeniable that a student who played the role of a leader would be helpful to his friends when faced with a crisis.
The boy of the Wardanaz family was one of them.
A boy who has a strong influence not only in the Blue Dragon Tower, but also in the students of other towers, with the ice-like charisma of a famous family.
Even if he was cold and cold, he didn’t have a bad temper, so it was a shame. If he had a nasty mind, the tower would have been noisy in many ways.
‘There’s always a student like the boss, but it’s a bit different.’
After hearing about Lee Han from some of the other top students, Ingeldell was slightly misunderstood.
Lee Han didn’t have any crazy thoughts like ‘I was born in a magical family, so it’s my duty to dominate and govern others’.
Tweet.
“?”
Professor Ingeldell sat down and turned his head to the sound of birdsong behind him.
pat!!
At that moment, Professor Ingeldell disappeared.
* * *
“Woah Wardanaz.”
Lee Han put cloud mushrooms and dwarf hammer mushrooms in the basket when he realized that something was wrong. Sёarᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
A few students from the Black Turtle Tower came from afar with pale faces.
“What is going on?”
“Professor… Professor…! You are gone!!”
“?!”
Lee Han was shocked.
At that moment, several thoughts passed through my mind.
Could it be that Professor Ingeldell deliberately reassured the students in order to teach them a lesson before disappearing?
‘no. I believe in Professor Ingeldell. … Trusting the professor is not a good option in terms of probability… but still.’
Lee Han shook his head.
So, did evil enemies like the Imperial anti-magicians sneak in and kidnap Professor Ingeldell?
‘This also makes no sense. The last time there was a raid like that, you must have raised your guard and defense several times, but you broke through that? If that’s the case, I don’t have the qualifications of a principal.’
If this isn’t the case, my next thought is…
‘Have you been attacked by a monster? But Professor Ingeldell is a master equal to Allarron. Does it make sense for such a master to be beaten by a monster without making a sound? And does it make sense for such a monster to appear on the outskirts of a mountain range like this?’
Actually, when I thought about it, I felt bitter that it wouldn’t be strange no matter what kind of monster appeared near this magic school, but Lee Han still believed in Professor Ingeldel’s ability.
He is not the kind of person to be fooled like this.
“What do we do? What do we do?”
“Everybody calm down. Professor Ingeldell may have gone somewhere else for a while.”
Lee Han himself didn’t think so, but he said it calmly.
The important thing now was to placate the other students.
‘The situation where the monsters did not appear and the way was not lost. There’s nothing to be upset about. I just need to go back as it is.’
When it comes to mountains, everyone thinks of a wild land, but in fact, even within the mountains, there are roads here and there.
Natural trails created by seniors who entered the school first. The students have been
walking for quite a while, but if
you
just go back to this road, just go
back …
Gradually, I began to seriously suspect that all of this was a trap.
* * *
Lee Han and some students gathered under a nearby cliff to shelter from the rain.
Nilia said, shaking off the water with a tired expression.
“It is impossible to find a way out in this situation. You will definitely lose your direction. And what’s more dangerous is losing body heat or meeting monsters. Meeting monsters on a rainy day is a nightmare among nightmares.”
At Nilia’s words, the friends made faces mixed with despair.
But Nilia said it was okay.
“But don’t worry. We’re in a good place now. As long as we hold out until the rain stops…”
“Let’s find a way even if we take risks. If it rains worse, it will be harder to find the road.”
“No, just hold on…”
“I can’t see the Phoenix Tower students and the White Tiger Tower students right now. How can I find it in this rain?”
“So hold on…”
“I need to find the professor! Let’s find a way to call the professor.”
Nilia gave up and sulked.
Lee Han waved his hand as if to come this way. Nilia sprinted and gathered wood next to Yihan.
In the meantime, the students each talked about what they were thinking.
You have to find your way, you have to join other students, you have to find a professor, and so on.
In the meantime, Lee Han lit a fire all over the place. The bone pet picked up more branches as it moved from place to place through the rain.
“That’s why we have to move first!”
“I need to find other students! It’s common knowledge that the higher the number, the better!”
“It’s right to find the professor first!”
The students’ debate became even more heated.
Realizing that their opinions ran parallel to each other, the students sought the referee.
“Wardanaz!”
“What do you think, Wardanaz?”
“what?”
While lighting a fire, Lee Han was taken aback when an arrow suddenly flew towards him.
“Shouldn’t we wait until the rain stops?”
“…That’s right.”
“I see. I guess I’ll have to wait.”
“……”
Nilia glared at her friends.
When I speak, put it in the back of your ear…!
