Episode 605 Lee

Han, who was so dumbfounded that he couldn’t speak, answered belatedly.

“No, you did that with the school budget…?”

“Isn’t that what you do with the school budget?”

“……”

It was even more absurd if you did it on your own.

Lee Han wanted to ask if he had any enemies with the freshmen and did something like that.

“There is a misunderstanding. disciple.”

The dwarf printer saw Lee Han’s expression and hurriedly intervened.

“This is just what we do. It is to repay Gonadaltes-sama’s favor.”

“Have you ever been threatened to say that?”

“yes? I don’t know what you’re talking about…”

The good Dwarf printer couldn’t understand Einrogard’s unique black humor.

“In the past, the spirits of the printing shop ran rampant and an ink monster popped out, but at that time, Gonadaltes-sama helped.”

“If it wasn’t for Gonadaltes-sama, we might all be dead.”

“Principal…”

Lee Han was slightly moved.

“Why didn’t you tell me such a heartwarming thing?”

“under. My good deeds are too many, and if I tell them all, the sun in the sky will grow old and die.”

‘You’re really shameless.’

Lee Han nodded his head, immediately putting away the slight impression he had just made.

“Besides, how happy it would be if we could stop the intruders of Einrogard with our little service.”

“you’re right! It’s not hard at all!”

“?”

Lee Han was puzzled.

Are you stopping intruders?

“principal. That magic book… that… wasn’t it made for the freshmen to be dazzled by it?”

Lee Han still had vivid memories.

The memory of the escape where the White Tiger Tower students were brutally beaten after studying about Ein Lorgard in advance.

“Some of the intruders might see that and be deceived.”

“……”

Lee Han couldn’t bear to tell the truth to the good printers.

* * *

“It was hard. Please send it to the places I wrote.”

Headmaster Skeleton was very cunning and meticulous.

Among the first-year students whose admission was confirmed, they focused on the Blue Dragon Tower and White Tiger Tower students.

As most of them had families, they were always caught if they were placed in a plausible way in a nearby bookstore.

Lee Han could only shudder at the persistent and tenacious effort.

‘Do I have to go this far?’

“Uh, is this < Puppy Beast Detective Toberiz >?”

Lee Han looked at the printed magazine and was puzzled. It was a mystery magazine that I really liked.

“yes. I have prepared the next month’s supply in advance. The newspaper company said that the content to be published next month would be very decisive and exciting, so it would sell a lot.”

“Do you like that magazine?”

The skeleton headmaster looked at Lee Han in surprise.

A guy who only reads the economic business magic section of the imperial newspaper?

“Cainando likes it.”

“oh. Then why don’t you read it in advance and send the contents?”

“oh. I didn’t have anything to write in the letter, but that’s good. thank you.”

“…That’s right.”

The skeleton headmaster shuddered at the disciple’s gentle madness.

It was a joke…

Click-

The skeleton headmaster who checked the time on the pocket watch nodded. After this amount of rest, the careless bureaucrats would have sat down again.

“let’s go. I’ll have to convince you again.”

“Please wait a moment.”

Lee Han asked the printers some questions and returned with notes.

“What did you ask?”

“I’ve been researching simple gifts to buy and take away around here.”

“Is there anyone who will give presents to the capital city?”

“yes? I was going to take it to the Treasury officials.”

“…why!?”

Headmaster Skeleton really hated it.

Why should I give presents to parasites who have only the opposite of magic to do?

“Isn’t it good to be liked when you usually visit someone and ask for it?”

“why?”

“……” S~eaʀᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Lee Han just gave up on persuasion.

“I’ll just buy it and go.”

“Hmm… you sure are good at handling trash.”

“Isn’t it a little too much to talk about my friends like that?”

“I was referring to Biblé.”

‘Oops!’

Headmaster Skeleton thought for a moment.

Originally, the boy of the Wodanaz family was expected to meet and talk with the patrons of the capital.

– Einrogard is the best magic school in the empire. Students are getting the best education possible. Students are not hungry. Students are happy.

– Seeing the boy of the Wardanaz family talking like that, I guess I should support Einrogard more!

But come to think of it, this guy originally treated trash with patience. That was a talent that even the Headmaster Skeleton himself did not have.

Maybe this social skill will work for bureaucrats!

“…good night! I won’t leave it to you.”

“yes? What do you mean?”

“Persuasion.”

Lee Han was stunned by the headmaster’s absurd words.

“How do I take on that?? You don’t even know what’s there?”

“To be honest, it wouldn’t change anything. These are such crap studies.”

“No…”

To think that I had to go with the seniors’ research plans and win a grant.

It was a story that felt heavy on my shoulders just by listening to it.

Besides, I’ll be meeting seniors from next year…

-Is that guy the one who dropped our research plan?

– You look like a cheeky guy. It’s the shame of the Blue Dragon Tower!

I didn’t want to have a strange perception from the beginning like…

“If I fail, I think I will be very sorry to my seniors.”

“Sorry you’re saying that. Those who leave it to their juniors and lie down in their mansions should be sorry. I will never tell you your name, so take it easy. If you don’t want to do it, you can just tear up the plans here.”

Skeleton Headmaster was indifferent.

To be honest, the contribution that the freshman here made for Ein Lorgard was higher than most of the seniors.

Other students had to look and reflect.

“Even if you really fail, you shouldn’t say anything.”

“okay. okay. Do it lightheartedly.”

Lee Han accepted the research plan with a sigh.

“< Research on the species that trolls prefer to eat >, how can I convince them…” “

Hey. Give up on that.”

Skeleton Principal advised calmly.

Silvas, who works as a proud inspector of the Empire, was making a concerned expression after hearing the words of his colleagues.

“Gonadaltes-nim is here?”

“okay. But since you can’t see it, it looks like you’ve given up.”

“Everyone has suffered a lot. really.”

“We saved the gold and silver of the empire!”

Other officials were moved to tears.

But Silvas was still a bit uneasy.

‘Isn’t he coming again when he’s caught off guard?’

Smart-

“Are you there?”

“Oh. Please come in.”

Silvas straightened his posture at the sight of the boy who opened the door and entered.

The guests who visited the Imperial Palace were those whose identities were confirmed and proven themselves. Ordinary people could not enter.

As such, even bureaucrats could not exert their prestige here. Rather, there were many times when visitors believed in authority and mistreated officials.

– This land is the realm where I have jurisdiction! Why don’t you allow the territory war! Are you trying to insult my family!

– You have to pay twice as much tax? Are you a robber or a bureaucrat? I must speak to the Emperor face-to-face. tell me! I have brought an elixir to offer to Your Majesty. His Majesty, who will be fatigued from work, will be delighted!

However, the boy who came in greeted me very politely. Silvas was surprised by the fresh appearance of the guest.

“What are you here for?”

“hmm. I am a wizard and I came here because I wanted to ask for a grant.”

“iced coffee! You were a wizard. Are you out of the guild? Or a magic tower? Please sit here.”

Silvas pulled out a chair and pushed it toward the boy.

I was surprised at how different he was from normal wizards, but I liked him more than that.

If the wizards were only half as polite as that boy, his job as a bureaucrat would be much happier!

‘Is it the youngest member of the guild or Mage Tower?’

Usually young people aren’t sent for such a thing, but from the old-fashioned appearance of the boy, it was easy to guess that he was from a great aristocratic family.

A person from aristocrats who is good at etiquette would be able to take on such a task even when he was young.

Seeing it in person, I thought that it was not for nothing that I was skillful without tension.

“really. This is a gift.”

“yes?! No… a bribe…”

“It’s not a bribe. I bought it because I want you to rest a little bit since you must have put a lot of hard work in charge of the empire.”

The aroma of fragrant coffee and the smell of freshly baked apple pie pervaded the office.

The taste of custard cream and apple reminded Silvas of himself, and he swallowed his mouth water.

“This is the first time I’ve received a gift like this.”

‘??’

Lee Han was taken aback.

I don’t think anyone would have brought something like this.

‘Isn’t that basic?’

It was sewage to pay an invisible bribe while asking for a favor. Bringing nothing was the middle class. It was the master who quietly brought a gift that left a lasting impression on him.

Lee Han managed his expression. Aren’t the officials of the empire the ones who will one day become Lee Han’s superiors and support and pull Lee Han?

You should always leave a good impression.

“I bought it at the < Rock Spirit's Apple Jam Café > ahead, but I wonder if it will suit your taste…” “

I really like it! You know something!”

Silvas was delighted with the familiar cafe name.

In that cafe, the coffee was fragrant, the apple pie was delicious, and the stone soup wrapped by the rock spirit was very hearty.

to receive it like this

“Look! Grab some snacks!”

“Where did you get the snacks? You wouldn’t have time to go out?”

“This customer here bought it because he was worried about us.”

“!”

“!!”

Officials greeted each other with a look of shock and emotion. Tears welled up in the corners of some bureaucrats’ eyes.

“Aren’t you crying?”

“The coffee is just too spicy.”

Silvas asked in a much softer and kinder manner than before.

“What would you like to ask for funding for? mage? Difficulty will vary depending on the case. In case of a natural disaster or a dimensional disaster, the Imperial Knights are put in right away along with the support money. It’ll be a bit more difficult than that, but if you’re studying magic independently, you’ll have to prove its usefulness.”

Lee Han hesitated.

‘Should I just give up < Research on the races that trolls prefer to eat >?’

No matter how much I thought about it, it might be right to just give up and start.

“Don’t be nervous and speak comfortably. really. I couldn’t even ask the family name because I was out of my mind. Where are you from?”

“This is Lee Han of the Wardanaz family.”

“The Wardanaz family…! Did you come to ask for help in the name of the family?!”

Even as he said it, he thought it would not be Silvas.

If the Wodanaz family needed help, they would have contacted His Majesty the Emperor directly, not a mere bureaucrat.

The boy shook his head.

“You came in the name of the organization you belonged to. I was surprised. I never thought I would actually meet the Wardanaj family mage. There are some young people like this.”

“I am very young. for a moment. Are you familiar with Mr. Daihal by any chance?”

Lee Han paid attention to the photo on Silvas’ desk.

Silvas, Daihal and several other young bureaucrats were laughing in the picture.

“ah. you’re right. Do you know Daihal?”

“yes. We are pretty close.”

To be honest, Lee Han wasn’t sure if he was close or not, but now Lee Han was desperate.

< Study on the species that trolls prefer to eat > could not be a challenge without being desperate.

“I was often invited to the Dalcard family.”

“also. You’re from the Wardanaj family, so I’m guessing. I have always admired the head of the Dalcard family. He is my role model.”

“Actually… Asan, one of the boys of the Dalcard family, was almost beaten by a troll.”

“Such!? Are you okay!?”

“yes. Fortunately, he was safe, but from then on, I began to wonder if the empire was too insensitive to the troll threat…”

Sylvas was moved by the young mage’s words without realizing it.

How noble is this wizard’s reason compared to other wizards who are preoccupied with their own interests and rush to give money!
