Chapter 572

“Wasn’t That?”

-of course. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Ikrusha had no intention of telling the first year students, ‘Make all the giants invisible and take them to the main building’.

Who the hell would take on such an unreasonable task?

“Fortunately, the. I was worried if I should practice from now on.”

-hmm. I’m not a wizard, but I think there’s a little problem there too…

“???”

Lee Han did not understand Ikurusha’s words.

Do you have a problem with yourself?

‘Are you talking about the mistake of entering Ein Lorgard?’

-Coming back to the story, of course I brought it up, so there’s a way to get it into the main building. I know of an underground passage. connected to the main building.

“!”

Lee Han was surprised by the unexpected method.

‘I see!’

Come to think of it, Einrogard’s main building had as many hidden byways as its history.

Even < Spider's Web Lake > in the deepest basement of the main building, where a firefly resides, is connected to many places, so professors use it as a shortcut.

It wasn’t surprising that a long-lived giant like Ikrusha knew of one or two underground alleys connected to the main building.

“That way…! You are wonderful!”

– It’s still too early to rejoice. There are difficulties with this method as well.

Ikrusha started by drawing on the dirt an underground passage connected to a cave in the mountain range.

If you go down through the hidden cave, you will find a fairly old passage. If you follow this passage, you will find the basement storage of the main building…

‘Perfect?’

Lee Han, who was listening, tilted his head.

It didn’t feel like a problem at all.

“What is the difficulty?”

-The passage here is quite dangerous.

“ah. That’s…”

Lee Han asked a question slightly nervous.

“Is there such a thing as a hydra?”

-…It’s not that dangerous…

Ikrusha looked at Lee Han as if criticizing him.

To come up with a strange example while talking about a serious story.

“I was asking seriously…”

-Then it’s more of a problem. Anyway, there are swamps and lakes around the passage, so you can see quite a few ferocious ones. It’s been a while since I’ve used it, so I’ll have to check it out.

“All right. I’ll check.”

Han Lee jotted down < Check the aisle monster > on a piece of paper.

-After that, it’s time to get out of the aisle. If I remember correctly, there are a lot of students wandering around there.

“You mean seniors?”

Lee Han opened his eyes wide.

If it was a first year student, there was no way Lee Han would know.

And in the first place, none of the first-year students were fearless enough to wander around the basement of the main building.

Unless you’re crazy…

‘Oops. I’ve been around.’

Lee Han felt regret when the thought he had just stabbed himself.

“Why are the seniors walking around there? It’s a pretty deep underground warehouse.”

-I don’t know much about wizards either… That’s hard to answer.

‘hmm.’

Come to think of it, Lee Han knew little about the lives of his seniors.

Although the skeleton headmaster prevented contact, Lee Han secretly met many seniors…

Should I have asked more questions at that time?

‘From the 2nd year onwards, you can come into contact with people from other grades, be able to do club activities, receive outside requests more actively, and do your own magic research… Is this because of this?’

While studying magic, he could become a little gloomy and stay underground.

Lee Han immersed himself in reasoning, thinking that his seniors would get angry if they found out.

– Can we continue talking?

“yes. Please speak.”

-It is said that the students of Einrogard are iron-blooded, but I can’t help but be a bit surprised when I meet a giant. We need to keep the nearby students away.

“It is difficult.”

-I think so too. this is the hardest If you clear the aisle by force, you can get past it somehow.

Lee Han, who was worried, nodded and said.

“For now, gather the giants in front of the cave. I will find a way to keep the seniors away.”

-What do you plan to do?

Ikrusha was surprised when Lee Han acted faster than he thought.

He was well aware that a first-year student could not contact his seniors.

But how can you say it so easily?

“There are seniors I know. You can refuse, but I want to ask you a favor.”

-…for a moment. for a moment. You’re a freshman, right?

At the words that made her ears suspicious, Ikurusha began to get confused whether she was misunderstanding Lee Han’s grade.

* * *

– Senior. hello. Are you there?

Lee Han returned to the secret base and played with his quill. It was a note connected to Diret.

Fortunately, the answer came soon.

What’s going on?

-I have a question for you. If you feel uncomfortable, you don’t have to answer. I have nothing to give you.

ten.

-yes?

Junior, you can ask about ten questions.

– No… It can’t be. Isn’t this the original rule?

As I heard the other day, communication artifacts deployed in schools were based on one-to-one equivalent exchange.

Otherwise, you cannot trust an anonymous person whose face or name you do not know.

Considering what you’ve done, I could just ask you a dozen or so… Wait a minute.

-ah. Are you busy?

There was no reply for a moment, but soon a message came up.

no. preparing for a while. say it.

– I don’t know how the seniors are doing, but are there any seniors staying around the basement warehouse?

Lee Han described the scenery around the warehouse he had heard from Ikurusha in as much detail as possible.

It’s probably not just one or two warehouses deep underground.

ah. here. know.

“!”

Lee Han let out a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Senior Diret understood it only after hearing the explanation.

This is… um…

– It’s okay if you’re having trouble answering.

As the letters in Diret trembled as if hesitating, Lee Han wondered what kind of place this was.

Some kind of evil lecture hall whose name shouldn’t be known?

‘Is the devil turned into a classroom?’

It didn’t make sense, but Headmaster Skeleton might be capturing demons and using the whole classroom…

Not that secret, um… Yeah.

Diret, who hesitated, eventually gave up and gave the correct answer.

There is a small dog hole connected to the kitchen around there.

-yes?

So… I’m going in to eat.

There were dozens of kitchens alone in the vast Ein Lorgard. Some places have been neglected or forgotten altogether.

Among them, the kitchen Diret mentioned had a special vigilance magic that set off an alarm the moment food was brought out.

Originally, I had to give up because it was a rice cake for painting, but the students of Einrogard were also tough.

Just go in, eat as much as you want, and leave!

…In this way, they succeeded in breaking through the magic of the kitchen and plundering the food.

-I heard that there are quite a few seniors, but didn’t all of them do it to get into the kitchen?

That’s right, they’re all trying to get into the kitchen.

“……”

Lee Han was at a loss for words.

Diret also hurriedly spoke as if he had noticed when his junior’s words disappeared.

By the way, our dark magic school didn’t use it often.

-Uh no. You are welcome to use it. If you are in school, shouldn’t you use everything?

Because I didn’t!

‘I need to change the topic.’

After figuring out why there were so many students around him, Han Lee asked the following question.

-Seniors. Could it be possible to block the students around him for a while?

Junior. Is it okay if I ask why? Depending on the reason, the method will be different.

-That’s…

Leehan hesitated, but this time Diret calmed him down.

It’s okay not to say it if it’s hard to say. Junior. But just know this. The seniors of the dark magic school will be by your side no matter what strange things you do.

-thank you. Seniors. In fact, I’m trying to hide it a little by bringing the giants.

* * *

Koholti and Ogoldos, students of the school of black magic, stood in the back while Diret talked to his juniors with a quill.

The reason Diret didn’t answer for a moment was because he called the black magic students.

“My juniors are asking for help, so you guys join in too.”

“But didn’t the principal say that if you get caught in contact with a freshman on your own, it’s a punishment room?”

“If you don’t want to do it, don’t.”

At Diret’s words, Koholti looked at Ogoldos with contempt.

“You ungrateful scumbag…”

“When did I say I wouldn’t do it!!”

Ogoldos cried.

I was just asking once, but does that mean it’s such a bad thing to kill?

The two bickered and ended up standing behind Diret.

“So what does your junior say you want help with?”

“I don’t know. You have to listen. First of all, I ask why students gather in that holey kitchen, do I have to answer like this? Are you too embarrassed?”

“It can’t be helped…”

“What do you answer when the seniors ask why you can’t solve it with magic and crawl like a beggar?”

“no way. I am not such a junior.”

After thinking about it for a while, Dereth confessed the truth.

Fortunately, the juniors didn’t ask, ‘Why are the seniors crawling like beggars without solving the problem with magic?’

“Doesn’t any of you go there often?”

“Uh… no.”

“I… I don’t go often either.”

“……”

Diret, who asked without much thought, regretted it.

I’d rather just not ask!

“Ugh. I don’t know what he’s asking for.”

“Originally, it was like that when I was a freshman. I also left a letter in front of the tower saying, ‘Seniors, please give me a little bit of surplus food’. I was naive.”

“How was it?”

Ogoldos was curious about Koholti’s words.

“Someone said, ‘Eat this,’ and put a stone on it.”

“……”

Ogoldos became saddened by the anecdote that was much more like Einrogard than he thought.

“I have to ask you to speak comfortably. No matter what happens, the school of black magic will be on your side…” ”

That’s good? Won’t you be impressed?”

“Wouldn’t that be rather burdensome?”

“Shut up.”

Ignoring the chatter behind her, Diret moved her quill.

Ogoldos and Koholti waited for a reply with eyes mixed with anticipation and concern.

‘Couldn’t you have moved to another school just because it’s burdensome…?’

thank you Seniors. In fact, I’m trying to hide it a little by bringing the giants.

“……”

“……”

Silence lingered in the workshop for a while.

Koholti rubbed her eyes and checked again. However, the word giant did not change.

“What… what is it?”

“Isn’t it written wrong?”

“No, what the hell are you supposed to do to bring a giant?! Rather, why are you trying to hide it!?”

As he listened to the noisy conversation between his classmate and his junior, Diret closed his eyes and fell into thought.

Then he flashed open and played with his quill.

– Not very surprising.

“…no. no. No…”

“That’s not it! What a bluff…!”

Koholti and Ogoldos were stunned by Diret’s bravado.

No matter how much you want to maintain your dignity as a senior, you don’t ask about that and just pass it on?

“everyone.”

“uh?” “yes?”

“Shut up.”

“……”

After shutting the two of them up, Diret continued writing behind the scenes.

– Hiding giants is common.

Is that so??

-of course. Don’t underestimate your seniors. Because they are wizards who are well adapted to this kind of work.

As there will be fewer opportunities to meet juniors from next year anyway, Diret boldly shouted.

thank you! I wish you well!

After hearing the junior’s answer, Diret put the quill into the inkwell.

Then he looked at the other black magic students and said.

“Now, suggest one way to prevent students from coming to the room where both of the giants are hiding.”

“……”

“……”
