Chapter 581
Whiiyiying –
As the wind got stronger and a blizzard raged, the vision narrowed.
“Sharkan. request.”
Lee Han summoned the green jewel leopard to check the way.
I had to be more careful as the familiar landmarks disappeared.
Fortunately, Lee Han and his friends were already armed with winter items.
“Thanks to Professor Garcia.”
“You made it during Professor Verdus’ lecture, didn’t you?”
At Durgyu’s question, Lee Han looked away as if he hadn’t heard.
Just then, Sharkan returned. The leopard nodded as if it could pass.
“for a moment. I have to walk quite a bit from now on, but I don’t think I can keep carrying it on my back.”
“Wardanaz. Even if it bothers me, I can’t just throw these off the cliff.”
Giselle opened her mouth, eager to tease Wodanaz once.
However, Lee Han and Durgyu showed a different reaction than Giselle expected.
“No…”
“That’s a bit…” ”
…was a joke.”
“That’s right.”
“It was a joke. I thought I would too.”
“hey. Just shut up, both of you.”
Giselle vowed never to joke with these bastards again.
“So Lee Han? Is there any good way?”
“Arise, warriors of bone.”
Lee Han swung his staff and chanted a spell. Three skeleton warriors slowly carried the apprentice knights on their backs.
“This should work.”
“uh. But Lee Han.”
“Why?”
“What if the knights wake up here?”
“…would you like an eyepatch?”
Lee Han was not enough even by tying up the apprentice knights, so he even filled them with eye patches.
And only then did he put on a relieved expression.
“Is that enough now?”
“……”
“……”
Giselle and Durgyu looked at him and made complicated expressions.
The sight of putting the knights to sleep and then tying them up and putting them on the back of a skeleton is like…
‘It looks really evil.’
‘It’s like a warlock from an old story.’
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“I was admiring the way the skeleton was used.”
“With something like this.”
Lee Han was slightly embarrassed by Therugyu’s praise.
* * *
“Ugh.”
Ravda woke up in pain.
I couldn’t quite remember what had happened.
I’m sure I was sitting in the carriage, but I felt a strong pain in my stomach…
“Ouch!”
Ravda and the apprentice knights opened their eyes.
It was the first time I had ever been inside a cabin.
I could hear the sound of the wind blowing outside, but the rugged fireplace was burning the fire and driving out the cold…
In the cupboard, canned lamb and some eggs. It was full of peas, marmalade, sugar, salt, tea leaves, and coffee powder.
‘Where is it?’
“You woke up!”
Lee Han, who was checking the inside of the pot with a ladle, saw the apprentice knights stand up and rushed over.
“I worried. You guys are down!”
“What happened? Wodanaz? Where are you?”
Lee Han hesitated. It was as if he was exchanging glances with Giselle.
“Don’t you remember? The carriage has been attacked! A monster attacked the wagon!”
“That… was it?”
“okay. I was barely able to escape with you guys.”
Yihan and Giselle eagerly explained how the bloody and grotesque monster living in the mountains attacked the carriage and tried to devour the apprentice knights.
Durgyu kept his mouth shut and sliced the onion.
No matter how I looked at it, I didn’t have the confidence to say that.
“Go… Thank you. Shame on you. just get help We should have stopped.”
“It was an unexpected surprise, so I couldn’t help it. Mountains are dangerous places.”
“Were there giants? Rumor has it that there are giants here.”
“…Well, it seems that there were giants…”
Lee Han raised the level of the monsters as the apprentice knights wanted.
If that makes you feel comfortable!
“Then where is it?”
“Probably a hunter’s hut.”
“Are there hunters here?!”
‘Looks like I persuaded them well.’
Lee Han exchanged meaningful glances with his friends.
Fortunately, I was able to overcome the biggest obstacle.
We couldn’t help but stumble upon this lodge by accident!
‘All it takes is one day.’
The apprentice knights shared their opinions among themselves.
“hmm. Can I use this place?”
“I can’t help it. Now that this has happened, let’s get ready to face the monsters. Because the professor said he would come too.”
“?”
Lee Han hesitated.
“What did the professor say?”
“hmm? There are monsters in the mountains, so be prepared to deal with them.”
“Didn’t you just say you were coming?”
“ah. You did. that monsters are coming But isn’t that a natural thing when you enter a dangerous area?”
“……”
Of course, Ravda wasn’t wrong.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that monsters would come to a dangerous area.
However, Lee Han’s senses, trained in Ein Lorguard, were inferring a different meaning from that word.
‘Is this strange?’
Knock-knock-
At that moment, someone knocked on the cabin door. Durgyu lifted the padded wooden board and checked out the window.
“!”
Surprisingly, it was the other White Tiger Tower students.
Half-buried in the snow, the shivering White Tiger Tower students knocked on the cabin door and shouted.
“Help me too!”
“Door… open the door! I think I will freeze to death!”
“What is Bartrek Clt?! you guys. How is this…?!”
“We got attacked! it’s cold it’s cold Open the door!”
Durgyu hurriedly opened the door.
Then, the White Tiger Tower students outside tried to enter the cabin.
“Paralyze!”
Lee Han swung his staff and cursed him with paralysis.
As it is a curse-type magic with the fastest casting speed and widest range among magic, the Paralysis Curse hit the students of the White Tiger Tower as it is.
“Kuh… ugh!”
“!?”
Durgyu looked at Lee Han in surprise. I couldn’t figure out why Lee Han cast the paralysis curse.
Slowly-
The bodies of the students at the White Tiger Tower collapsed like slimes. Then, wriggling, it turned into a strange monster.
“Shape shifter!”
Giselle exclaimed in a voice full of astonishment.
Monsters of the shape shifter series had a powerful ability to change their shape freely.
The most representative was the doppelganger, but he wasn’t the only one who had this ability.
The shifting slime in front of me was also one of the notorious Shape Shifter type monsters.
It is also quite high!
“Be careful, don’t let them dig in! It gets tricky when shapeshifters break into the ranks!”
Giselle drew her twin swords and made a gap. When that slime came in and used the transformation, things became very tricky.
The appearance of the slime changed one after another, probably taken aback. After copying the image of a student at the White Tiger Tower a few times, he changed into Lee Han as if he had noticed Lee Han.
“Don’t attack! I am your friend!”
“okay!”
Giselle cheerfully thrust her sword into the slime’s face. It was one of the most beautiful and neatest sword attacks I’ve ever seen.
Chow!
It seemed that the slime was also hit quite hard when it was even attacked by a sword enchanted with a paralyzing curse. He hurriedly ducked out of the cabin door and threw himself into the snow.
‘It would be a headache if I missed it!’
“Sharkan. good!”
The leopard growled and sprang out. Sharkan, who reacts with his sense of smell, had an advantage when dealing with these shape shifter monsters.
Even that was not enough, so Lee Han called the skeleton warriors and stood them in front of the door. It was in preparation for an unexpected intrusion.
Kwajik!
Sharkan accurately bit off the shifting slime’s ankle as it tried to burrow into the snow.
The slime gave up the ankle part and tried shapeshifting once again. It was not easy to catch him because there was so much snow.
“Snow, turn to sand!”
Lee Han hurriedly memorized the order.
I’ve practiced turning sand into rock and rock into sand a lot, but I’ve never practiced turning snow into sand.
Immediately recalling the characteristics of snow and sand, Lee Han completed his magic.
Then the accumulated snow scattered and turned to sand.
‘done!’
“Splash spear!”
Lee Han summoned lightning to his staff and fixed its form. Thanks to Professor Voladi’s strict order, it was possible to omit the spell without having to memorize it for a long time.
Pajijijik!
When the spear of lightning pierced the slime with precision, the slime no longer maintained its shape and melted away.
Basically, a slime is a monster with a very simple structure, so if you inflict more than a certain amount of damage, the core can’t stand it and collapses like this.
Under normal circumstances, there was no need to panic or be so nervous.
Because it’s not an ordinary situation!
“…You really have become Professor Ein Rogard!”
Lee Han sighed.
Who and where did you get this shifting slime?
It was clear that Professor Ingeldell had asked other professors to get them. It’s a fairly rare slime, so it wouldn’t have been possible to make it without the help of the professors.
‘I’d rather have been fighting an enchanted bull.’
Lee Han seemed to know what Professor Ingeldell’s evil plan was hidden in the final exam.
After scattering the students in the mountains, they release the shifting slimes they trained in advance to attack the students.
The students who thought the cold winter was a test would be caught off guard by the slime in the form of a friend. Sёarch* The nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
“It’s nonsense.”
Durgyu still had a distraught face.
“Are you sure you talked like Bartrek? How did you follow the same?”
“Probably the professor taught me secretly. He must have observed us while we could not see.”
Lee Han, who had learned about shifting slime from Professor Lightning Walk, had his own information.
The slimes were a kind of primitive community in which higher thinking was impossible.
Of course, it was closer to seeing and following rather than thinking with intelligence.
Durgyu was shocked.
“That far?!”
“I was also surprised. But if you’re a professor at Ein Lorgard, you can do that.”
Lee Han removed the remains of the slime.
The wreckage was like the last piece of trust she had in Professor Ingeldell.
‘Now I have to think that Professor Ingeldell is also the professor of Einrogard.’
Ravda sincerely admired it while thinking of a very rude thought.
“Everyone is really great. We’re here to help, but it’s embarrassing.”
“haha. with something like that.”
Seeing the warm atmosphere, Lee Han slightly thanked the shifting slime.
It got annoying when Ravda asked, ‘Why does my head hurt like I took a sleeping potion’, but thanks to the slime, I was able to get over it.
“Wardanaz. I was really impressed that he immediately recognized that it was a slime.”
“that’s right. I couldn’t even see it, but I noticed the difference.”
“Since we’re usually close, I naturally felt a sense of incongruity.”
Durgyu was deeply impressed by Lee Han’s words.
‘I can’t believe I didn’t notice!’
Durgyu promised once again that he would pay more attention to his friends in the future.
‘Was it a shifting slime?’
Lee Han was also surprised inside.
I just thought the other White Tiger Tower students came to interfere and tried to subdue them, but I never thought they were monsters.
It was a really careless Einroguard.
‘I’ll have to attack more aggressively from now on.’
“Eastern slope.”
Giselle, who had been observing outside without listening to the conversation, said with a serious expression.
“Approaching this way. There are more than 10 people.”
“…!”
Lee Han opened the cabin door and looked down.
Surprisingly, more than ten students and apprentice knights were coming this way.
“Let’s not get close.”
“okay.”
The two agreed.
I don’t know what they were thinking, but I couldn’t put them all in the cabin, and it was hard to handle the aftermath.
At least if there was a shifting slime in between…
“……”
“……”
However, the closer the group approached, the more Lee Han and Giselle’s faces hardened.
There were also Lee Han and Gisele Durgyu in that group.
The fake Lee Han pointed at the real Lee Han and shouted.
“There are fakes!”
“No, this crazy…!”
Lee Han was shocked.
Obviously, slime’s intelligence is at the level of watching Lee Han and learning from him, but how can he incite such a thing??
