Chapter 601

Episode 601

, there were bloodlines whose appearance was exceptionally close to that of animals.

These people are usually described as ‘thick blood’.

And if the animal was a cute animal that was generally liked, it could easily gain popularity beyond the general handsome and beautiful women of the empire.

-Like Professor Verdus.

Certainly, Professor Verdus had a cute appearance close to a beaver that stood out among beaver beastmen.

The reason why Professor Verdus was able to survive with his personality was his magic skills and skills, but it was doubtful that his appearance played a role.

“Then can we take the professor?”

-Are you out of your mind???

“ah. sorry.”

Lee Han immediately apologized. Headmaster Skeleton also said with a softened face.

“Compared to Professor Verdus, Pengerin is the shining star of the social scene.”

“I don’t want to go to social events, but…”

Alcicle said with a frown on his face.

As much as he was born with an outstanding magical talent, Alcicle thought he was destined to devote himself to magic.

A wizard with such a fate should go to a social hall and not waste time on useless social activities, but concentrate on magic.

“Oops. I don’t want to be the principal of a magic school either. Penguin. That’s what life is like. If you break in and get caught, you end up doing something you don’t want to do. ruler. Let’s go.”

Headmaster Skeleton dragged the two up to the ground.

Lee Han, who suddenly remembered another intruder, asked.

“What happened to the intruder who was turned into a statue?”

“ah. that spy guy. The duke sent it.”

“Which duke?”

“Duke of Ikhaldoren.”

“!”

Lee Han was surprised.

Among the great nobles of the empire, he was a duke whom he had met several times.

“That capricious, eccentric, miserly duke? I never thought I would do something like this!”

“…?”

The skeleton principal was puzzled by Lee Han’s words. Alcicle was also puzzled by Lee Han’s words.

‘Aren’t you a miser?’

‘Isn’t that a cold and thorough personality?’

“Isn’t Duke Ikhaldoren a miser? I’m not the kind of person who cares about gold coins.”

“you’re right. I know of a few towers sponsored by Duke Ikhaldoren, but he’s not a picky patron. Also, I heard that his personality is a bit strange, that he is so cold that even if he pricks him with a needle, not a single drop of blood comes out…”

Lee Han tilted his head at their words.

did you?

“Aren’t the rumors exaggerated? He was a bit strange.”

If the Duke of Ikaldoren had heard of it, he would have been furious, saying, ‘It’s because I’m embarrassed because of you!’

Headmaster Skeleton and Alcicle took Lee Han’s opinion seriously.

“A person’s personality can change.”

“Well, that is also true. I don’t know if he sent the spy because his personality became erratic and erratic.”

It was Duke Ikhaldoren who suddenly became an eccentric and capricious miser.

“There are few people you can trust in the Empire. Still, a duke would do something like this.”

“You have come to an understanding. How many people truly care for this empire? There will be only me.”

“……”

“…Ah yes.”

Alcicle and Lee Han’s reply was delayed, but the skeleton headmaster didn’t care. seaʀᴄh thё Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Then, will you meet the Duke first on the way?”

“no. I have no intention of changing my plan because of such a pyramid.”

Headmaster Skeleton waved his hand as if Duke Ikhaldoren’s affairs were trivial.

Even if he was a high-ranking noble of the empire, in the eyes of the skeleton headmaster, he was just a kid who was lucky enough to be born into a decent family.

Things like making a name for yourself in the Empire’s political world or raising your reputation in the social world are just laughable.

I had no intention of changing my schedule because of those guys.

Just like eating the dessert on the table when you think of it, the work of the duke also belonged to that category.

“I’ll deal with it later when I think about it.”

“I thought you were angry at the intruder.”

“I got angry when I couldn’t catch it. to incompetence.”

The Death Knights who drove the wagon in front flinched.

“But there is no reason to be angry as long as you caught him.”

Headmaster Skeleton had a really casual face.

It was so sincere that he was more angry at the fact that he couldn’t catch it than the fact that he invaded.

“He must think that he is special. But a guy like that comes out every year in Ein Lorgard. Those who think they are special and are sure they can take something from Ein Lorgard.”

After speaking, the Headmaster Skeleton looked at Alcicle.

Arcicle was pricked by his conscience and hastily made an excuse.

“I didn’t go in to get something, but to teach you magic…”

“Noisy. Stealing is the same stealing.”

Lee Han, who was listening to the conversation, asked curiously.

“What was the duke trying to take?”

“At least it must be insignificant things. Treasures of eternal life or immortality.”

‘I don’t think it’s insignificant.’

Lee Han thought so, but he put up with it because the headmaster of the skeleton would cast a scornful glance at him if he said it out of his mouth.

silence.

A quiet silence lingered in the carriage after the conversation. The only thing I could hear was the sound of the Death Knights driving the wagon and flying outside.

Arsicle opened his mouth, perhaps because he was bored or because he couldn’t stand the silence.

“Did you learn a lot of cold magic?”

“ah. We have succeeded in making a contract with a lesser cold elemental.”

Lee Han, who was writing a letter to his friends in advance, proudly answered Alcicle’s question.

“?”

“?”

Of course, Alcicle or Skeleton Headmaster looked at Lee Han’s answer, saying, ‘What is this kid talking about?’

You have nothing to brag about, so you brag like that?

“Are you great? Making a contract with the Frost Spirit is also a great thing!”

Alcicle waved his beak and tried to agree somehow.

Headmaster Skeleton was even more absurd.

“Are you out of your mind in the punishment room, Pengerin?”

“Isn’t a spirit contract a great thing…

”

“Is there anything else?”

Alcicle turned around to change the topic.

“I haven’t been able to learn much because I’ve been so busy… I have succeeded in creating one of the cold elemental clones.”

“Ouch.”

At the words of the ruthless genius, Alcicle staggered at a loss for words.

The capital of the empire was a place where the title of capital became more familiar than the city’s original name.

The most beautiful city in the empire The largest city in the empire The busiest city in the empire…

A place where even the people of the empire, who are proud of their origin in the vast land of the empire, have no choice but to admit it with a frown when the name is mentioned.

It was the capital of the empire.

There were already countless visitors waiting in line at more than dozens of city gates.

Walls with a history comparable to those of Ein Rogard looked down on those visitors.

The numerous spells on the wall made the wizards who were waiting in admiration. To the extent that there were wizards who came up to take a look at the castle wall itself.

“Is that Anita’s Lake? A blessing?”

“There are already crowds of people.”

“Look over the walls! The illusion wizards are showing you a new magic!”

“I swear by the grace of His Majesty, you are truly beautiful!”

In other cities and castles, there would have been people who would complain while waiting outside like this, but it was hard to find such people in the capital.

There were so many splendid things to see that I couldn’t rest my eyes even if I stayed still…

…but actually, it was because I had to face the Emperor’s Royal Guard Knights immediately after making even a minor disturbance.

Even the most reckless did not make a fuss in the capital of the Empire.

Puu Woo-Woo-

A wagon with a loud trumpet and a wagon with the sound of death.

Experienced wizards and warriors shuddered at the powerful energy felt from the carriage.

Woo woo woo woo-

– Back off. Back off! Your Excellency Gonadaltes, His Majesty’s Magical Commander and Guardian of the Empire’s Magical Barrier!

The Death Knights blew their horns and signaled to the people gathered at the gate.

The people who heard the name of Gonadaltes were frightened and started to build a road.

“Hey get out of the way! It’s Gonadaltes-sama! That Archmage!”

“I swear by my beard, I never thought I’d see the Empire’s greatest archmage here!”

“Don’t look at the wagon! Do you want to become a toad!”

People were flustered by various rumors and misunderstandings about the Archmage.

Fear, respect, curiosity…

Various emotions swayed on the faces of the gathered people.

Lee Han, who was watching it from inside, lowered his head in embarrassment.

I couldn’t see the inside of the carriage from the outside, but I instinctively covered my face.

“Does it really have to be loud like this?”

“Then shall we fly over the castle walls in a wagon? There is a procedure for everything.”

Headmaster Skeleton stepped out of the carriage and waved.

Then a thunderous roar erupted.

“Long live the Archmage!”

“I want my son to become an outstanding hero like the Archmage!”

‘That’s right.’

Lee Han was truly sorry.

No matter how much, you made me imitate the skeleton headmaster!

It was a tragedy that happened because the truth was hidden.

“Your Excellency Gonadaltes. Thank you.”

The captain of the knights in charge of the gate area heard the story and came running.

Unlike ordinary guests, Gonadaltes’ visit was a major event that made all the knights of the capital nervous.

“Thank you very much for not flying over the walls this time.”

“……”

“……”

Lee Han and Alcicle inside were dumbfounded.

Did you fly over the walls of the imperial capital?

The skeleton headmaster snorted and replied.

“I have been flying over this city for hundreds of years. Even before you were born.”

“You know very well that this is not my order.”

The Knight Commander looked at Gonadaltes sadly with eyes that said, ‘Please don’t get into trouble’.

Those who prevented the headmaster from flying in were not knights, but officials of the empire.

After shedding blood and sweat to create the laws and rules of the empire, an ancient great wizard came in laughing at them.

The moment the skeleton principal flew in once, the bureaucrats rushed to the emperor and started whining.

“know. know. It must be because they are annoying. May I come in?”

“yes. Please come in.”

The knights opened the way.

After passing through the gate, Lee Han was surprised to see the main street where the headmaster’s carriage entered.

The empire’s capital was as diverse as its size and was lined with bloodlines, among which there were roads that could only be used by a certain class.

And now, the road where the Headmaster Skeleton’s carriage entered was a fishing route that only the emperor could use. Not a single ant could be seen on the road even though the surroundings were crowded with people.

“…Can I use this route?”

“no way. There are several merits that Gonadaltes-sama has accumulated, but I can use this much. … maybe.”

Alcicle tried to keep his dignity like a nobleman in front of Lee Han.

But I couldn’t help the tip of my beak trembling.

Fortunately, the knights did not come running. It seemed that they were indeed permitted.

“Pengerin. I will take Wardanaz and treat you alone. You…”

“There are relatives nearby, so you can stay there.”

“No. Meet the bureaucrats and praise Ein Rogard.”

“…yes…”

Alcicle had a lot to say, but nodded softly.

It was impossible to refuse because the punishment room effect had not yet been removed from the body.
