Chapter 218
– Gulp Gulp –
When drinking water was secured, the students of the Blue Dragon Tower looked around with a slightly relieved expression.
My mood changed as soon as my thirst for cunning people’s hearts was resolved.
Up until just now, I thought, ‘What did I do to enter this school?’, but now I thought, ‘Maybe it wouldn’t be bad to experience this with my friends.’
Some of the students sat on top of a dry rocky hill and looked at the horizon.
“Still, it’s not as bad as I thought. yes?”
“that’s right.”
‘He whined that he was going to die just now…’
Yoner thought to himself, but he didn’t bother to scold his friends who were already having a hard enough time.
“I hope the White Tiger Tower guys suffer more.”
“me too.”
“……”
Yoner looked at his friends in bewilderment.
‘Will I be punished for talking like that?’
“Aaaagh!”
“!!!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a scream erupted from the other side.
Lee Han grabbed his cane and ran.
“what’s the matter!”
“There…!”
Lee Han’s face hardened when he saw the direction his friends were pointing at.
A medium-sized monster with a heavy body was approaching from the far horizon.
‘Rock Drake!’
It was a well-known monster in the empire, to the extent that not only Lee Han but also some other students recognized it by seeing it.
A sub-dragon monster, Drake, who is big and strong enough to be rumored to have dragon blood mixed in his ancestors.
Among them, the rock drake with its shell made of hard rock was notorious for its ignorant defense. Searᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
-Watch out where the rock drake comes out. Quite a few middle-aged adventurers change their clothes in the blink of an eye if they get caught wrongly.
-I went to the place where Rock Drake comes out the other day. Do you know what they call Rock Drake there? They called it ‘The Wizard’s Nightmare’. It just deflects the magic.
It was absolutely not a monster to deal with in the first year.
No matter how much Lee Han has dealt with Rakshagwi!
In terms of rank, several levels were higher monsters. There is no rumor that dragon blood is mixed with any monster.
“Everyone lower your stance. Don’t provoke it.”
“Looks like you’re coming this way?”
The rock drake approaching with heavy steps was not fast, but there was a bloody pressure.
Lee Han called the students together.
Since Rock Drake was moving this way, we had to quickly come up with a countermeasure.
“You have to run away right now! Let’s move to the other side.”
“This is nonsense. Rock Drake is not a monster with strong aggression, but it is said that monsters that enter its territory will attack unconditionally. If you move around and provoke him, that’s it!”
“Then he’s coming, so let’s stay still?”
“It’s coming this way, but I’m not sure if it’s coming to the hill where we are. More likely to go elsewhere.”
“If it’s too late, there’s really no chance to escape!”
Opinions of friends were sharply divided.
‘It’s not easy.’
From Lee Han’s point of view, it was more of a problem because both sides had a point.
Although Rock Drake wasn’t a monster with keen senses, if a group of students were moving around, there was a chance they could notice it no matter how far away they were.
However, standing here and hiding from the back is like leaving it completely to chance, so there was no other countermeasure…
“Should I throw in a silver coin?”
“…not bad.”
“what? Han Lee. Are you okay?”
Gainando was taken aback when he said it and Lee Han agreed.
Of course I thought I’d say no…
“I’ll just refer to it. Stone, teach me the future.”
Lee Han threw the colored stones on the floor and concentrated his mind.
Originally, I tried not to use the Foresight Magic as well as possible, but when the situation came to this, I couldn’t help it.
Fortunately, it is not the distant future, but the near future.
‘This is worth a try.’
Of course, if there were professors Passelette or Garcia, they would have said, ‘Whether it’s easy or difficult, the first year is absolutely not at the level you’re at right now’, but unfortunately, there were no two professors here.
The answer you want is, does the rock drake come this way or not?
In an instant, several blurry images passed by. Lee Han could barely stare at one of them.
“…I think it’s coming.”
“shit!”
Seeing Rock Drake destroying the library on the hill and going wild, Lee Han decided to escape with his friends.
“There is absolutely no way out. Although there is an invisibility magic…”
“Ah!”
“The problem is that I can still only write to myself.” Even for magic like
“Ah…”,
it was much more difficult to use it on others than on the wizard himself.
“But fortunately, there are artifacts. Guinan Island. Give it a try.”
Gainando, who received the belt from Lee Han, meekly kicked it.
Then he fell to his knees in front of him.
“Mah… Magical power…”
“Oh no. It consumes more mana than I thought.”
“Leehan… you will assassinate me…”
“Yoner. Can you give me some potion?”
Lee Han opened the cork and poured the potion on Gainando.
Fortunately, after a while, Kainando recovered his energy.
“If this is the case, it must be difficult to rent artifacts.”
At Lee Han’s words, all of his friends nodded enthusiastically.
No matter how much invisibility magic was needed, he didn’t want to wear those artifacts.
‘I really manage to wear an artifact like that!’
“Lee Han. I have a good way.”
Gainando said.
“what?”
“You just need to learn the invisibility magic you can cast on others now.”
“……”
“……”
“Can’t you give that bastard Rock Drake as bait?”
As the spirit of his friends grew fierce, Lee Han stretched out his hand to stop them.
‘Certainly it’s true in principle.’
The principles of invisibility magic cast on oneself and invisibility magic cast on others were not very different.
This is because the latter requires a much more difficult and delicate process.
‘Let’s try it a few times.’
Lee Han decided to make the most of the time before Rock Drake came close.
Having a lot of magic means that you can waste that much.
If I can get a direction, that’s a good thing, and if I can’t get a direction, I thought I’d give up neatly.
“Guinan Island.”
“…I feel like a test subject from a while ago, is it because of my mood…?”
Gainando grumbled and stood in front. Lee Han aimed his cane.
“Cloak. Swallow your friend.”
‘I can’t do that either.’
He was properly focused and his movements were accurate, but his magic did not activate.
Magical power moves in the air, and conflicts and stagnation occur in the middle of formulating the structure of magic, and it fails.
It was because he was not completely familiar with the concept of magic yet.
“Cloak. swallow me.”
Lee Han cast a spell on himself for reference.
Of course, it succeeded, and at that moment…
the arm of Gainando, who was nearby, disappeared.
“Ahh my arm!!”
“Are you all right?”
“ah. Is that so?”
Guinando, who was frightened that his arm had become transparent, was relieved that his arm had returned to normal.
When I stretched out my arm again, it became transparent again.
“Look at this, everyone!”
Invisibility was spreading in a space about 2 to 3 meters around Lee Han.
‘Amplify!’
At that moment, Lee Han realized what had happened.
Lee Han cast another spell while activating the invisibility necklace the Spire Keeper gave him.
Two magics of the same series were amplified by exchanging influences on each other.
‘This… I didn’t expect it. Was that what the principal meant?’
It was natural for Lee Han to be surprised.
Originally, this kind of amplification was not a common result.
-What happens when you cast a spell once cast again?
A question that every magician has no choice but to ask.
Another strength-enhancing spell, another agility-enhancing spell, another invisibility spell…
What happens in these cases?
The answer was ‘don’t know’.
It is impossible to predict properly as it is affected by numerous variables such as situation, place, and magic.
However, this kind of amplification would be the result.
It was embarrassing, but in the current situation, I was lucky.
‘for a moment. Then why didn’t the belt amplify at the same time?’
A belt received from the Freesinga Church.
This belt was similarly enchanted with invisibility magic.
But what didn’t amplify…
‘The method is different!’
A moment of quiet realization passed through Lee Han’s head.
On the outside, even if it was the same invisible magic, there was a difference in how to implement transparency.
If the belt of the Prisinga Church is a magic that surrounds the caster with a camouflage that refracts light and disturbs the vision… The spire keeper’s
necklace or the principal’s magic is magic that confuses the viewer’s concept and prevents them from recognizing it. was close to
The latter amplified each other because the method was the same.
‘Is that why you asked me to think more? I want to tell you this.’
Lee Han felt like his mind was clearing up.
Although Lee Han himself did not notice, the magician’s enlightenment was of this kind.
Getting a very minor realization about the magic that was blocked and making progress.
In a way, it was natural that Lee Han did not notice.
There was almost no blockage while learning magic until now.
Talent was a magician’s reliable guide, but at the same time, it also made a wizard drunk.
If the Headmaster Skeleton was by his side, ‘Yes, that’s it. With a grateful heart…’
“Leehan! I have to move!”
“sorry. I sold my eyes for a moment. Let’s move.”
Instead of appreciating how precious what he had just experienced, Lee Han went straight into action.
Enlightenment and what, only one thing was important.
‘Invisibility magic can be increased in units of range.’
Lee Han cast < Gonadaltes' Invisibility Cloak > magic to amplify the range once again.
How long does it take to walk to complete the proper range?
At first, there was no control or anything, but after a few tries, I got the hang of it.
“Cloak, swallow me… that’s it. That should be enough. let’s go!”
It was the orthodoxy that when one attains enlightenment, one should immerse oneself in it with a grateful heart.
You don’t know if the realization you’ve gained will disappear somewhere.
But sometimes there were exceptions.
A genius who moves immediately after realizing what he is thankful for, immersed in, and has no hindrance at all!
Lee Han put his friends in the invisible range and ran.
If the skeleton headmaster was by his side, he would have been unable to hold back his irritation and added a trial by hand.

Even after beating Rock Drake, the Blue Dragon Tower students couldn’t rest easily.
After searching for a new library, he camouflaged himself by relying on the library.
“Are you okay now?”
“What if they come after me again? You have to look a little more.”
“I want to light a fire…”
To prepare for a proper rest, I had to start with the fire and put down several things.
However, the friends who just barely escaped could not completely shake off the nightmare of Rock Drake.
“There!”
“?!”
Everyone hurriedly turned their heads when someone shouted in a muffled voice.
Fortunately, it wasn’t Rock Drake.
“No!!”
“I didn’t say Rock Drake…! Look at that!”
The people who appeared were the students of the White Tiger Tower. A group of four students were walking, looking around.
It was clear that the Blue Dragon Tower students had not yet found it because they were hiding.
“What should I do, Wodanaz? Shall I call you?”
“Do you have Durgyu?”
“Durgyu? no?”
“Then there’s nothing we can do about it. Subdue it.”
“……”
What can’t be helped?
