Chapter 345
The princess pulled on Lee Han’s sleeve as if she felt ominous about Puyo’s answer.
However, Lee Han decided that that level was still good.
‘I could have cursed harder, but I didn’t. That’s pretty good among enchantment mages.’
He could have cursed worse than idiot, but he just said idiot.
In a way, you could say it was kind.
“Isn’t it?”
The princess blinked in succession as if she understood Lee Han’s explanation. When the other person didn’t say anything, Lee Han judged that the meaning was valid.
“You seem to understand.”
“Sleep…”
The princess came to her senses belatedly and tried to point it out, but she couldn’t.
“Then let’s get to work.”
Puyo swung his staff.
Then, the shelves and storage drawers inside began to move as if they were alive and vomit the items they contained.
Whoops!
The princess was overwhelmed by the amount of ingredients piled up like a mountain.
Adenart was one of the top two students in Einrogard in terms of amount of study, but the materials Puyo provided exceeded expectations.
Could it be that the two of them had to handle all these ingredients?
The princess involuntarily turned her gaze to Lee Han.
Lee Han whispered as if he knew.
“If you steal the ingredients from the beginning, there is a high possibility that even Puyo-sama will not look after it. Let’s focus on work for now.”
“…what the hell are you talking about…!”
Although Adenart, who had always been evaluated for maintaining the dignity of the royal family without wavering, a cry flowed from his mouth without realizing it.

There was a prejudice that wizards would do anything for the sake of their pursuit of magic.
Of course, this was prejudice.
Most of the wizards Lee Han met were on that side, but not all wizards would be like that.
Unfortunately, Puyo went into that direction.
When the work started, he put out an enormous amount of work, as if he wasn’t called the best artifact craftsman in Granden City for nothing.
It was the attitude that they didn’t care at all that they were freshmen in the first year.
– Finish trimming these canes here.
-All right.
-When you’re done, put the luminescence enchantment on the ore beads in the box.
-All right.
-You must have finished your work. Good job. Rewrite these empty scrolls to fill them.
-Okay…
While replying, Lee Han hesitated when he saw the princess glaring at Puyo. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
It was an expressionless face, but there was a clear sense of life in those eyes.
‘It’s a big deal. It shouldn’t be like this already.’
Of course, Puyo had been working hard, but only three days had passed.
It was too early to want to kill Puyo.
‘If the princess attacks Puyo and gets kicked out, I’ll have to do it alone.’
Lee Han spoke to appease the princess.
“Princess. Please bear with me a little longer.”
“……”
The princess became more talkative as the number of followers around her decreased, but as the work progressed in Puyo’s workshop, her words decreased again.
Even when Lee Han called, he remained silent and only glared at Puyo.
“Originally, I tend to learn rigorous enchantments like this.”
“……Is that really true?”
The princess, who had been refusing to answer, asked after much thought.
There was a chill in his voice, but Lee Han continued talking without hesitation.
“yes. Because there are so many magics to learn and so many ingredients to deal with in grant magic.”
In fact, all magic had to be harsh, but the princess did not doubt Lee Han’s words.
In terms of rigorous training under other wizards, Lee Han was the most experienced.
When Lee Han said that, I thought, ‘Maybe that’s really true’.
“All right.”
The princess stopped staring at Puyo and looked down at the ingredients on the table.
Lee Han let out a sigh of relief and urged the next work.
“I’m glad you seem to understand. ruler. Then, please draw a magic circle on all the pieces of paper here. I’ll check it while imbuing it with magic.”
“……”
For the first time in her life, at Lee Han’s request to engrave a magic circle on a pile of paper piled up almost to her forehead, the princess felt a sense of hopelessness.
“Magic power…”
“Magic power?”
“…You don’t have enough magic…”
Engraving the magic circle was a task that consumed an enormous amount of concentration, but infusing magic into the magic circle and checking it was formidably difficult.
In particular, the latter consumed a lot of mana.
There was a hint of earnestness in Adenart’s eyes looking at Lee Han.
“ah. do you mean my magic? I’m fine. You work.”
“……”
The princess thought silently as she drew a magic circle on a piece of paper with various inks and powders.
He had met countless people in the Empire, but it was the first time that he had never met someone as unfathomable as the boy from the Wardanaz family next to him.

After three days of sleepless nights, Puyo seemed to be somewhat satisfied.
“Everyone has suffered. Urgent matters have been taken care of. go back and get some rest. I’ll call you next time I’m working.”
Of course, the two did not return immediately.
I had to concentrate on working on the mysterious wand while holding back a yawn from exhaustion.
After investing half a day, the two were able to complete a fairly decent staff.
The princess carefully handed the wand to Lee Han. Then he waited anxiously.
“… I think this is good enough. Then go back heh…”
Bang!
Before Lee Han could finish his words, the chair the princess was sitting on flew away.
It was because the princess stood up too hastily.
“……”
Without saying a word, the princess grabbed the chair and stood up.
“Thank you for your effort.”
“Ah, the princess worked hard too.”
The princess quickly passed through the door of the studio, afraid that someone might catch her.
Seeing this, Lee Han became anxious.
‘It’s not like he won’t come next time.’
If the princess didn’t come, Lee Han had to do all the work by himself. That was absolutely unacceptable.
Lee Han promised that if such a thing happened, he would visit the mansion and bring it.
“Are you leaving now?”
“!”
Hearing Puyo’s voice from behind, Lee Han got goosebumps.
Of course, I didn’t think that I would catch on after saying ‘It’s over now, let’s go rest’.
But aren’t all grant wizards crazy?
Madmen would quickly forget what they originally said.
“I must have worked too much. I’m sorry.”
Puyo said with a wry smile, perhaps noticing Yihan’s hesitation.
“I don’t know how to teach with moderation. I also learned this way.”
‘Someone has to break this chain of hatred.’
Lee Han was sincerely sorry for Puyo’s words.
Wouldn’t the people who learned under Puyo make victims in that way again?
“But I can say with certainty whether these works are helpful. How is it?”
“I definitely learned a lot.”
It’s not an empty word, I really learned a lot while working in Puyo’s studio.
A method of grooming the target to match the flow of magic as much as possible before casting enchantment and maximizing the effect.
A method of engraving various 1-2 circle magics on scrolls and granting them to items.
It was impossible not to accumulate experience as much as he had to personally cast each and every thing that had been pointed out in theory at school.
Originally, I was in a situation where I should be proud of my own growth, but I was too tired to do that.
“okay. After all, an enchantment mage gets better with experience. No matter how talented you are, if you don’t train, it’s hard to show that light.”
“You are right. Then I…”
“I heard that you made a separate staff after it was over.”
Lee Han regretted sending the princess away first.
If it had been blocked, Lee Han could have left first, leaving the princess as a sacrifice.
“yes.”
“It’s good to practice, but it’s going to be hard to make a decent wand at this level.”
“yes. I know.”
I didn’t feel the slightest hint of arrogance in Lee Han’s attitude.
It was a rare humility for a wizard born with that much talent.
Seeing that, Puyo thought that she was worrying for nothing.
‘He said something useless.’
“okay. If you know, there’s nothing wrong with practice. By the way… is that staff a gift from a tree spirit?”
“ah. you’re right.”
Lee Han nodded.
Magic school students were basically allowed to use only the staff provided by the school.
Even clothes from the outside are not allowed to come in right now, but a cane could not be an exception.
However, if you found or made it yourself in school, you allowed it. That was the reason Lee Han was able to use the tree spirit’s staff.
“I received it from the oak tree spirit in the mountain range inside Ein Rogard.”
“Excellent.”
Puyo gave a friendly smile. It was the smile of an artisan that is hard to see in a workshop.
As a mixed-blood tree spirit, Puyo had a keen sense of what kind of wand Yihan’s wand was.
The vitality unique to the spirit was intensely amplified by resonating with the wizard’s magical power.
The owner didn’t seem to notice yet, but it was highly likely that the wand had revealed fragments of extraordinary vitality time and time again.
“Have you ever used earth or plant type of elemental magic?”
“I have had it a few times, but I haven’t used it often.”
“Right. I’m still a freshman, so I probably haven’t learned healing magic.”
Puyo tried to ask if he had ever learned any magic that directly utilizes life force among healing magic.
Come to think of it, if he was a freshman, he probably wouldn’t have learned basic healing magic yet.
“It is a good staff. I can feel that the spirit dwelling in the staff also follows the owner.”
“No, is that true?”
“…is that such a surprise? Has the wand ever rejected you?”
“All the spirits I met avoided me a bit…”
“……”
Puyo changed the topic instead of digging into Lee Han’s wounds with additional explanations.
“By the way, what kind of gem is the gemstone at the end of the wand? Frost Elemental? No, that’s a bit strange for a cold elemental. what?”
As Puyo looked through the gemstones, he felt that he was getting more and more confused.
Since it was a freshman’s staff, I thought it might be a low-level cold spirit, but seeing that it was wild and chaotic, it was far from a spirit.
‘Are there any monsters like this among the monsters that cast cold or frost?’
“I don’t know. Could you please tell me?”
“The frost giant…”
“Aha. I didn’t think of that. …Wait a minute, the frost giant wouldn’t give a mark like this?”
“This stone was given to me by the king of…”
“……”
* * *
Because of the king of frost giants, Lee Han had to explain for another hour instead of going back to the mansion even though he was tired.
After hearing the amazing and mysterious story that happened inside Ein Lorgard, Puyo threw out the first question.
“Why did you, a freshman, have to face the king of frost giants?”
“…there is a story that cannot be told.”
Lee Han turned the topic.
Seeing Lee Han’s bitter expression, Puyo didn’t ask any more questions.
“This stone is spraying cold air. If it wasn’t for the life force of the wand itself, it might have been a little dangerous…”
Lee Han flinched at Puyo’s words.
Did you just put something dangerous like that?
‘no. If the professors saw it, they should give a warning. Why…?’
It was astonishing that I just went over it just because I was well-balanced.
Especially in the case of Professor Voladi, you would have seen it up close!
“Is it very dangerous?”
“I’m fine now. However, in case something goes wrong, it’s better to add other gems around it to safeguard it. If it’s okay, I’ll do it. It’s fate that we worked together like this.”
“!”
Lee Han was moved by the courtesy of Buyeo Wizard.
‘As expected, endowment wizards are loyal people!’
“The best way is to amplify the energy of the flames and suppress them…”
“Wait a minute.”
Lee Han said quickly.
Adding the energy of flame to the staff was something I couldn’t just stand by.
