Chapter 264

“I almost got the most terrible misunderstanding in the world.”

Lee Han was embarrassed even after answering.

He was afraid that that Duke of Ikhaldoren would return to Imperial society and spread false rumors such as ‘I heard that a boy named Yihan from the Wardanaz family is so close to Gonadaltes’.

If that were the case, how would the people who had a grudge against the headmaster skeleton react?

It wouldn’t be one or two numbers.

“How is the life of Ein Rogard? Are you satisfied?”

Duke Ikaldoren tilted his teacup and asked about life in the magic school.

Lee Han felt all the nerves in his body stand on edge.

This…?

‘It might be a trap!’

What if the Duke of Ikhaldoren is in fact close friends with Headmaster Skeleton?

So, what if you are trying to find out the dissatisfaction of a student you met by chance?

“I am very satisfied.”

“is it?”

“The principal always helps students to focus on their studies. The students of the magic school are always in an environment where they can only think of magic.”

“…?”

Duke Ikhaldoren was confused.

Ein Rogard was a secret place where it was difficult for outsiders to grasp the circumstances, but there was no such thing as a perfect secret in the world.

To some extent, rumors have no choice but to flow.

Of course, some rumors leaked out to Einrogard, and Duke Ikhaldoren knew that much.

According to rumors, Einrogard was never such a satisfactory environment.

‘What are you up to? Wodanaz? What are you up to? Gonadaltes?’

Duke Ikhaldoren’s little eyes flashed slightly. My head was complicated by the unexpected answer.

But no matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t seem like the boy in front of me was lying.

There is absolutely no reason to lie.

So did Gonadaltes really change the rules?

‘That in itself is quite possible. But why? for what reason?’

No man of the size of Gonadaltes would change the rules for no reason.

Duke Ikhaldoren’s reasoning went deeper and deeper.

‘Certainly… are you trying to win favor with other noble families or the emperor?’

Gonadaltes was a great sorcerer who was famous for being rude even in front of the emperor.

The fact that such an archmage worked hard to earn the favor of other noble families or the emperor was because he was preparing for such a task.

What are you trying to do?

Duke Ikhaldoren felt chills as if a cold blade of ice had been placed down his spine.

‘No way… are you targeting me? Gonadaltes! so?!’

“Not only that, but the professors are all great. You are helping us with both your mind and heart to teach us even one more thing.”

In the middle of the conversation, Professor Voladi nodded and almost coughed, but Lee Han barely finished speaking.

Duke Ikhaldoren was even more convinced by that attitude.

It was absolutely not a lie to say it with such emphasis. It was clear that a change had really taken place within the Magic School.

‘You have to be careful. increasingly.’

“Your Highness the Duke.”

“Tell me.”

One of his subordinates approached, lowered his head, and muttered lowly.

“I found what you commanded.”

“What kind of guy are you?”

“It’s a basilisk.”

Professor Voladi put down the teacup he was holding. Although her face was expressionless, a feeling of satisfaction was evident throughout her body.

‘Duke of Ikhaldoren. I will not forget.’

Lee Han held back a sigh and made another promise.

* * *

“This isn’t… a basilisk, is it?”

“It’s a bastard’s egg, to be exact. Wizard.”

Lee Han felt slightly better.

On the other hand, Professor Voladi seemed slightly offended.

“When will they hatch?”

“It’s hard to know exactly. As you know, rare monsters like Basilisks are quite capricious, aren’t they?”

An egg laid by a rooster that has been incubated by a poisonous snake for a long time.

That was a basilisk egg.

It was true that it was a very rare treasure, but the egg was of no use to Professor Voladi, who needed an opponent to face his pupil right now.

You can’t tell them to fight Al, can they?

When Professor Voladi remained silent, the atmosphere flowed strangely. It was to the point where the duke’s men could feel a little offended.

Basilisk eggs are also a very rare treasure, so even a wizard would not express his gratitude by receiving such a gift for nothing in return?

Lee Han, who noticed this, quickly stepped out.

“thank you. I will never forget the courtesy of His Highness the Duke. It seems that the professor is so grateful that he forgot what to say.”

“haha. We are happy that you are so happy.”

Only then did the duke’s men loosen their faces and were satisfied.

“It was really hard to find. You would be surprised to know how much they paid for it.”

‘shit. I’ll just give you gold coins.’

The duke’s subordinates were unhappy, Lee Han was unhappy, and Professor Voladi was also unhappy. It was a painful deal for everyone.

Lee Han seriously contemplated whether the Duke of Ikaldoren would send an assassin if he was caught secretly stealing and selling basilisk eggs.

After the subordinates returned, Professor Voladi, a man alone, opened his mouth.

“That is useless.”

“no. professor. You can hatch them by taking good care of them.” Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Lee Han wanted to end it roughly at this point.

He was afraid that Professor Voladi would visit the dragon and start a fight with him.

“Even if it is an egg, it is true that it is a basilisk egg. If you grow it well, it will grow in no time.”

“……”

Professor Voladi, who was worried about Lee Han’s persuasion, finally answered.

“…Right. If it’s not too late, I can use it for the next exam.”

“no. I didn’t mean that.”

Lee Han replied with a straight face.

* * *

I must have exchanged presents. I must have realized that I am not close with the principal. Duke Ikaldoren slowly prepared to see the two off.

“You came out to buy ingredients?”

“yes.”

“You will go with me. After all, merchants don’t give out really good things easily.”

The duke ordered his subordinates.

The merchants weren’t smart enough to trick the wizard, but they weren’t stupid enough to give away good things easily.

It’s trivial, but it was Duke Ikaldoren’s way of accumulating favors one by one in this way.

Moreover, it was even more so if the opponent was from a great aristocratic family.

The honor of the nobility is not to easily forget the favors received.

Of course, it took a little while for the opponent to be from the Wodanaz family, but unlike the other Wodanaz, that boy seems to be relatively fine

…

Lee Han was puzzled.

just give it like that

Maybe Lee Han isn’t delusional that he’ll pay back later because he’s sorry, but is he trying to show the distribution of the great nobility?

If that’s the case, it’s really amazing.

Why would you do such a pointless thing…

* * *

“First, give me all the lesser mind-boosting potions, do you have Sethribi’s Dew potion? We also need Dobruk’s Blooddrop Potion.”

“Wait a minute, please.”

The alchemists sitting in the guild workshop were surprised by the visit of the distinguished guests.

“It will take a little while as we have to stock up and make it. But are you really going to tell me this much?”

“yes.”

Lee Han’s strategy was simple.

Professor Wooregeol said, ‘It is your ability to find materials, so make your own’, so I really wanted to show off my ability.

Buy potions to use outside.

From the potions needed to make pre-final assignments to potions that could be used for final exams, everything!

Originally, I was planning to buy only what I needed as much as possible since I had no money, but there was no reason to save it when Duke Ikhaldoren gave me gold coins.

The duke’s men, who were watching from behind, looked at each other with puzzled faces.

-Aren’t you buying too much?

But nobody stopped.

If you stop it, Duke Ikhaldoren will give you a bad decree for ignoring your face.

It was a little more expensive than expected, but given Duke Ikhaldoren’s intention to bestow the favor, it could have worked out better.

“Let’s go to the pastry shop next door.”

“yes?”

“Do you have any problem?”

“Uh… nothing.”

The duke’s men followed Lee Han past the door of < Dasihi's Cookie Shop >, which was decorated with colorful and elongated candies.

I wondered why the wizard went into the candy store, but I wondered if they needed an ingredient they didn’t know about.

There is a potion that contains crispy crème brûlée, or there is a magic to prepare with sweet eclairs… …

is it really there?

“This giant chocolate cake doesn’t seem like an ordinary thing.”

“You have eyes that see. customer. These are items that adventurers who have worked hard for months sometimes buy to celebrate their victory. It takes a week to make one.”

“great. I will buy this too.”

“oh my god! I knew you were a noble person, but I never thought you would tell me this!”

Lee Han nodded with a confident gesture.

The duke’s subordinates behind them couldn’t help but look more and more puzzled.

* * *

“It’s done. professor.”

On Sunday evening after the frantic shopping, Lee Han met Professor Boladi again in front of the Amur Stables.

Amour’s jaw dropped when he saw Lee Han carrying all sorts of piles of luggage.

“What…?”

It seemed that even a porter who had worked at the top for over ten years would not be so merciless in lifting the load.

“it’s okay. Let’s get started.”

“No… wait a moment.”

Amour was taken aback.

If there was anything more important than breaking out of prison or school, it was going unnoticed.

Of course, Lee Han and Amour were prepared for that.

He had intended to go in disguised as Amour and his subordinates around midnight on Sunday.

But that burden was a bit too much.

A box or two might be enough, but if you carry that much luggage in, even if the Spire Stable Keeper is blind, you will hear ‘Let’s check it out for a moment’.

“hmm. I bought a little too much.”

“It’s not a little…”

“It’s okay.”

“??”

“Professor, you can call it Jim.”

“Uh… are you okay?”

Amour was more perplexed.

Can I use the name of the sky-like master for smuggling like that?

Professor Voladi nodded as if it didn’t matter. Lee Han looked at me saying he knew that would happen.

“Then let’s go! really. I brought some dessert here. Eat it when you are hungry.”

“no. The students must have no money… wait…?”

Amour couldn’t understand how Lee Han bought that many things.

It wouldn’t be easy to sell the name of the family if you weren’t extremely immature or shameless…

“…First of all, I understand. Let’s go!”

Lee Han fed Griffon a snack (Griffon was very happy when he gave him the best beef jerky) and checked Professor Voladi’s luggage.

While wandering around the village with the Duke’s men, there were several long boxes the size of one person that Professor Voladi had bought.

‘…Couldn’t it be a monster?’

Lee Han was ominous, but he was determined. Even Professor Voladi couldn’t save more monsters in that short period of time.

“What’s in it?”

“Adventurers.”

“…yes?”

“Adventurers. There are people who cheated earlier.”

Professor Boladi said calmly.

Speaking so calmly, it felt like the snack box that Lee Han had piled up and the adventurer’s box containing adventurers were similar.

Of course, Lee Han was not fooled.

“professor. Why are they like that?”

“I intend to use it for the final exam. They are all fluff, but if you train them, they will be useful.”

“……”
