Chapter 587

Chapter 587,

“Did I just answer prematurely?”

The reason why Lee Han answered quickly was that there were many corners to be stabbed.

Arriving before the final exams and trying to finish the exams was not an honorable attitude.

But now, the tree spirit’s reaction made Lee Han guess that he was missing something.

what?

“Do you know me?”

-To the master…

A slow and heavy voice unique to a tree spirit.

Lee Han realized that the owner was the skeleton headmaster.

‘ah. Are you one of the principal’s minions?’

If it was like that, it wouldn’t be strange even if I had heard the story.

Lee Han was slightly relieved.

– …I heard it.

“ah. yes. okay. By the way, I’m here to help… Are you managing this jungle?”

The nutmeg tree spirit nodded.

To be precise, he was more in the position of having to clean up his mistakes rather than managing them, but the forest keeper did not like to talk too much.

And tidying up was, in a way, close to management.

‘no. You’re lucky.’

Lee Han admired his luck now.

With the help of the forest keeper who manages this jungle, they could easily pass through the jungle.

If you only check the secrets of the jungle…!

“Priestess Siana. Sharukal Priest. lucky.”

“I totally understand.”

“Can’t we just pretend to be there to help? haha!”

The priests understood Lee Han’s meaning and quickly prepared to lie.

Pretend to be someone who has come to help and follow the forest keeper to check the jungle path!

From that bright appearance, I didn’t feel the slightest stubbornness that I shouldn’t lie as a priest.

Lee Han suddenly stopped.

‘Can priests get used to lies like this?’

And after a second, I thought again.

‘It’s good to adapt to Ein Lorgard.’

“Then let’s go!”

Seeing Lee Han and the students, the bija tree spirit was pleased.

It must be during the final exam period, but he was trying to help clean up the jungle, which had nothing to do with the exam.

They were really good students.

* * *

Abaltara, one of the plant monsters that the Headmaster Skeleton asked to bring in, had strong vitality and fertility.

Even if you throw a single seed, it has a strong power that instantly turns the surroundings into a jungle.

In order to treat Avaltarra cleanly, plants that play a role as a nucleus in the jungle had to be removed.

Of course, it wasn’t easy.

Avaltara wasn’t a monster that actively attacked or ate intruders, but it wasn’t a monster that stayed still either.

If stimulated incorrectly, the more Avaltara stimulates, the thicker the jungle will bloom and push the intruder away.

Contrary to his slow tone of voice, the forest keeper moved quickly as if sliding in the jungle.

-W…

“This tree?”

“Is there something in this tree?”

-Gi…

“

……

”

“Can’t you speak a little faster?”

-Pa…

The forest keeper continued to speak slowly, with an expression that he had already talked enough today.

The students guessed among themselves.

“Dig here?”

“You mean destroy?”

“Maybe it’s an understanding?”

“It could have been dug up…”

-God…

“It was meant to be destroyed!”

The students who got the answer immediately pulled out their canes and swung them around.

Sharukal plucked a nearby tree branch and turned the tip into an ax blade. Then, with force, he swung it.

Kang!

“Uh… well.”

Sharukal was embarrassed.

As if hitting a hard rock with an axe, the strong anti-elastic force returned and made my hand numb.

“It doesn’t look like an ordinary tree.”

At Lee Han’s words, Shiana nodded.

“It certainly seems so. Get out of the way.”

“Wait a minute. One more time…”

“Ah. It’s once per person. get out of the way hurry.”

‘Was there such a rule?’

Lee Han was puzzled, but Siana pushed Sharukal away and pulled out a potion bottle.

“die!”

“Ohhh!”

The priests shouted cheers from behind.

Lee Han looked at it and thought about it again.

‘Is it okay for priests to be so militant?’

Chiik –

I don’t know what combination Cyana was carrying, but a very poisonous liquid penetrated the tree’s roots.

However, the tree remained intact without any sign of withering.

“Boo! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!”

“Oh really!”

“Next, the power of the Shisenza Church…”

“If it fails, the Shisenza Church’s power is weak?”

“What nonsense!”

-Fire…

While the priests were talking briskly, the Forest Keeper slowly opened his mouth.

Siana heard it and told her friends.

“flame! Are you telling me to use flames?”

“Are you okay?”

It wasn’t that the priests didn’t use fire because they didn’t know about it.

It was a jungle and he refrained from using the flames as he did not know how it would spread to the surrounding area.

Chick-

“Seeing that it doesn’t ride well, I think it will be fine.”

“Then I will call the flames.”

When the priests showed that the fire didn’t spread too much when the tree was set on fire, Lee Han took out his staff.

As the tree to be destroyed had stronger defense than I thought, it seemed that Lee Han had to step in.

‘As long as it doesn’t spread around.’

Lee Han concentrated on the thought of using flame magic for the first time in a while, slightly excited.

“Burn…”

The flames containing powerful magic slowly rose.

The flames, which seemed to spread explosively at the moment, barely regained control and exploded into the outer bark of the tree.

The trees that other means had withstood, but this time the flames did not. The flames spread slowly and engulfed the tree.

Priests clapped and cheered.

“also!”

“It is the power of the Flemain Church!”

“The Church of Afha!”

“Neither of them…”

The forest keeper thought to himself while Lee Han stopped the arguing priests.

‘Fire is useless…’

Originally, the forest keeper was trying to tell the students that fire was useless.

After swinging the ax and pouring the potion, he judged that he would now use flames.

The tree, which is the nucleus of the realm of Avaltar, was protected quite thoroughly. It was common for axes, potions, or flames to not work.

In order to remove a tree, it was standard to first cut off the connection with other areas of the jungle, then absorb the life force of the tree to weaken its defenses, and then use special spells to poke its weak spots

… . It was amazing.

But instead of being taken aback or surprised, the forest keeper just blinked his eyes.

Originally, he tried to tell me how to deal with it, but the forest keeper got annoyed and pointed in the next direction.

-Next…

“Yes. Let’s all move.”

The students moved without even dreaming that they were not fighting with fire originally.

“I guess flames are the answer.”

“Should we keep it a secret from Priest Nigisor?”

-To the place…

* * *

“How can you find your way through the jungle?”

Lee Han asked patiently.

One of the things I learned after entering Einrogard was that all knowledge will come in handy someday.

For now, he said that he could just chase after the forest keeper, but later he could have fallen into the jungle alone.

-Energy…

“Energy? ah. Earlier, the nuclear tree had a defense that differentiated it from other plants. Of course, the energy emitted will also be differentiated, so should you identify and memorize the difference and then use it as an indicator to move?”

The Forest Keeper nodded happily.

The fact that he didn’t have to tell everything made the forest keeper happy.

Awesome 1st grade!

“indeed.”

“No no no.”

Priest Cyana, who was next to her, interrupted in bewilderment.

“What was it just??”

“huh?”

Lee Han was puzzled.

She wondered if Priest Shiana hadn’t heard.

“So, Priestess Siana. Just like you feel the flow of magic in magic, you can feel the flow of magic in this jungle too, right? Even if it seems meaningless because it is complicated and chaotic, there is a magical pattern that can be used as an indicator. That’s the tree I destroyed earlier.”

“How do you detect and remember that…? no. It’s not important right now, so I’ll ask later.”

Priestess Cyana did not ask if she could catch and understand the pattern of magic she wanted in the midst of this chaotic flow of magic.

It was because I was quite friendly with this boy from the Wodanaz family to ask such an amateurish question.

It was clear that he had solved it with his own mysterious and special ability.

Or it could be some evil arcane magic running down the family, but that didn’t really matter…

“Weren’t you just talking telepathically?”

“uh. It’s not. Did it look like that?”

“It was as if we were talking telepathically.”

“Weren’t we talking telepathically?!”

“……”

Lee Han was rather taken aback by the priests’ reaction.

Why?

* * *

After that, Lee Han and his party followed the forest keeper and faithfully helped with the tasks he was told to do.

In the meantime, I learned from the forest keeper how to find a way in the jungle, how to recognize dangerous plants, how to take care of useful parts when removing plants, and so on.

“Bae… did you learn?”

“Can you say you learned that?”

The priests whispered.

That was more like what Lee Han realized alone with the forest keeper standing in front of him rather than what the forest keeper taught him.

I would have realized similarly if I had put a dented rock or a guinando instead of a forest keeper.

Not knowing that the priests were whispering like that, Lee Han, who was walking in front of them, realized something and hesitated.

‘for a moment. It’s strange.’

Come to think of it, he was a forest keeper who had to manage this jungle.

However, the forest keeper was going around to destroy certain trees rather than manage the jungle.

Of course, forests have become dangerous because some of their trees have been contaminated.

If a plague is transmitted to a tree, it quickly spreads to other trees, so the priority was to treat the diseased tree in this case.

However, the trees that the forest keeper destroyed seemed to be the core trees of the territory rather than such trees.

A movement as if trying to get rid of this jungle.

‘It’s not bad for us if we clear the jungle… but what? Is it a bit like keeping it here?’

Lee Han wondered why the forest keeper was clearing the jungle. seaʀᴄh thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

It’s definitely not because the students are uncomfortable…

While thinking about it, we arrived at the last tree. Following the forest keeper’s instructions, Lee Han burned the tree with flames.

At that moment, the plants in the jungle suddenly began to crumble and fall.

As if time had passed quickly, the bushes withered, the leaves turned to fallen leaves, and the trees rotted into the ground.

And all these things gathered and gathered together into one seed. The jungle here felt like a fantasy.

“uh… Did you really come to clear the jungle?”

-?

The Forest Keeper had a different reaction today for the first time.

I couldn’t understand what this master’s disciple was talking about.

I came to clear the jungle. So what are you here for?

Kiik- As

the jungle disappeared, the door to the exposed classroom opened and Professor Yon Ramo appeared inside.

“Have you cleaned it up? Thank you… Hey Lee Han-kun? What are the other students doing here?”

Professor Yon Ramo was puzzled when he saw the students gathered in front of the classroom.

There was still a lot of time left before the exam.

“Wait, did you clear the jungle together? Thank you, but it’s during the final exams, why are you preparing for the exam…”

“Professor, wasn’t breaking through the jungle also a test?”

one of the priests asked cautiously.

Everyone seemed to be feeling ominous, their expressions were not serious.

“I definitely said that the final exam is to transform the arm. Didn’t I tell you?”

“……”

“……”

-Thank you… Thank you…

The forest keeper expressed his gratitude and left, leaving the students with decaying faces alone. .
