Episode 610
In fact, surprisingly few people in the capital of the empire refused Einrogard’s call.
People in the historical capital had the ability to learn. Rumor has it that those who dared to refuse were subjected to rumors, but few dared to refuse.
But in any era, there are unlucky people.
Those who had just arrived in the capital did not hear such rumors, so they often made the mistake of acting arrogantly, believing only in their modest strength.
No matter how great a wizard he is, he couldn’t do anything in the capital where His Majesty the Emperor is staying!
…But if there’s one thing they’re mistaken about, it’s that the Headmaster Skeleton can do that without hesitation.
“I hope there are fewer idiots like that this year.”
“I agree.”
Headmaster Skeleton stopped at a mansion in the central district of the capital. It was evidently the mansion of a fairly powerful aristocratic family.
“Master has no appointments today…”
“A letter from Einrogard must have arrived. That letter is a promise. Open the door.”
The skeleton headmaster ordered the gatekeeper with a firm attitude.
The command soon became powerful, pushing the gatekeeper aside and opening the front door of the mansion.
“Lord Master! The Archmage has arrived! The archmage has arrived!”
The gatekeeper, who had fallen, groaned and shouted. It was as if someone who had been afraid of death for a long time actually saw the visit of the grim reaper.
Headmaster Skeleton could have blocked the gatekeeper, but he waited quietly.
“Shall I stop it?”
“Leave it alone. There are times when the story is comfortable only when fear spreads in the mansion.”
“……”
Are you the one who came to invite the students?
Soon after, a middle-aged aristocrat whose complexion turned blue jumped out from inside.
It was pitiful to see him breaking out in cold sweat all over his body and complaining of fear.
“Lord Gonadaltes! Please hear me out. I absolutely did not ignore Einrogard’s proposal or refuse it because I disregarded your honor.”
“I guess so. There’s no way you would do something so rude. I trust you.”
Skeleton Principal approached kindly.
It was because, as you can see, he was more like a frightened guy than a cocky guy.
These guys needed a kind approach.
“But my son has a very noble and aristocratic character. You’re too noble of blood to hang out with the insignificant people of the Mage Tower or Magic School!”
“haha. Right. Right.”
“……”
Lee Han thought that the other aristocrat poured oil on his body and jumped into the fire.
In front of the skeleton headmaster, those words were the same as ‘Please harass my child specially hehe’.
“I see what you are concerned about. Do you think that the Mage Tower or Magic School has a lot of things to do with ignorant knights and vulgar commoners?”
“Sobbing. yes. Even the insane priests.”
The noble added a word while weeping. Lee Han shook his head.
Certainly, in the world of wizards, status or family did not exert much power.
Excluding Einrogard, which belongs to an extreme case, there were quite a few cases of working under a mage from a commoner even if he entered the normal mage tower.
There were some who came from traditional aristocratic families who couldn’t stand this situation. Such people used to learn magic under private tutors invited separately from their families.
“Originally, I’ve been thinking about Baldrogard too…”
“!”
Lee Han witnessed the Skeleton Principal’s fingertips tremble slightly with anger. It was a very dangerous sign.
To change the topic, Lee Han urgently asked a question.
“Why didn’t you choose Waldrogard?”
“Sobbing. Even low-ranking nobles can come in if you pay.”
“That’s right.”
Headmaster Skeleton waited for his opponent to cry and chatter.
When the other party seemed to have poured out everything in moderation, the skeleton headmaster began persuading with a soft and friendly smile.
“You are misunderstanding something. Could it be that Einrogard will mix nobles and commoners? huh?”
“Isn’t that… something like that?”
“never! look at me He is a descendant of the most pure and noble bloodline of antiquity. Would I mix aristocrats and commoners like this?”
‘Let’s fight instead…’
Headmaster Skeleton called Lee Han, who had other thoughts in his mind.
“Tell me. disciple About the true life of Ein Rogard.”
“Were you a disciple?”
“okay. I brought you here to tell people like you the truth about Ein Rogard.”
Lee Han nodded to match the rhythm.
“you’re right. Ein Lorgard’s students are strictly separated from each other. Commoner students dare not even look at the shadows of noble students. The place where the beautiful old tradition is kept most strictly is Ein Rogard.”
“Oh…” Sёarch* The Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
The nobleman’s eyes wavered at those words.
“In this corrupting world, if you learn outside of Einrogard instead of inside, you might have more encounters with ignorant knights and vulgar commoners.”
“That’s right. Even crazy priests will run into it.”
“In contrast, all the students of Ein Lorgard strictly follow the rules. All disrespectful people go to the punishment room.”
“indeed…!”
Lee Han exchanged glances with the skeleton headmaster. Headmaster Skeleton happily nodded.
After all, both hands have to be in sync to clap.
It was much more persuasive for a young student to speak directly than for the skeleton headmaster to persuade.
Of course, most of them are lies…
“Your Excellency Gonadaltes. Maybe I just got scared.”
“It can be. How difficult it must be for a noble person like you to endure in an era where the law is blurred and the name of the nobility is weakening like these days. But at this point, I believe you will understand my sincerity.”
“yes! I will send my son to Ein Rogard.”
“Yes, yes. Good idea.”
The headmaster of skeletons appeased the nobleman and let him inside.
As they walked out the front door, the skeleton headmaster murmured.
“I’ll have that family manage the compost in the Black Turtle Tower stable.”
“That’s a good idea.”
* * *
“This guy has great swordsmanship. If you focus on swordsmanship, your name will be left in the history of the swordsmanship guild…” “
You can sharpen your swordsmanship in Einrogard. disciple Show me. The swordsmanship I developed as a hobby is this much.”
“Three OMG!”
A member of the swordsmanship guild who was contemplating whether to learn magic or concentrate on swordsmanship.
“I am worried that if I go to magic school, my prayer time will decrease and my faith will weaken.”
“Thanks to Einrogard’s faithful environment, I was able to realize several divine magics.”
“!!”
One of the temples who was worried about magic for fear of getting in the way of their faith.
Headmaster Skeleton brought out a rare warm look at the disciple showing off his 100% skills.
“Your skill is really good! His Highness Jourin will also be admitted!”
“Don’t make scary jokes.”
“I also regretted it a little after I said it. haha. It’ll be over sooner than you think. It’s all yours.”
Skeleton Principal checked the time.
As the capital was the most densely populated place in the empire, the number of people who refused admission was the highest.
After completing the admission process here, the rest of the empire was much easier.
“Next are the mercenaries. Judging from the location of the guild house, they seem to be illegal… Um… They are illegal.”
The skeleton headmaster lightly used foresight magic to confirm the opponent’s identity.
As the saying ‘mercenaries are divided into two categories, criminals and undetected criminals’, the empire’s mercenaries have always suffered from illegal temptations.
After hanging a signboard that read, “Mercenary Corps,” there were numerous people committing all sorts of crimes.
“If they are illegal, are you also suppressing them by force?”
“no. Rather, illegal bastards are easier to convince. There are a lot of stabbings, so I’m very scared.”
Skeleton Principal replied confidently.
There were not only good citizens in the capital. Insidious criminals also swarmed in the shadows.
Because these people were afraid, they would sometimes reject Einrogard’s proposal… but
when the headmaster of the skeleton visited, they immediately reflected and accepted the offer.
“Everyone has arrived. It’s here.”
After passing through the slums on the outskirts of the capital and arriving in front of the mercenary building next to the dilapidated inn, Lee Han and the headmaster were very conspicuous.
People who were sitting in a gloomy alley where they would not even know if a person was dying saw the two walking and their eyes twinkled or they held their daggers tightly.
But that was it.
Guild members wearing the same pattern came running from inside the alley, beating people sitting down, grabbing their hair, and pulling them inside.
-Because you’re such a crazy bastard. You guys know who that guy is!
-Are you trying to kill us together! Can’t you clean your eyes!?
“There are still some guys with good memories.”
When the headmaster of the skull said it as if he was happy, Lee Han looked at him with an evil gaze.
“Where are you from?”
“Are you a member of the Arrowhead Mercenary Corps? Tell your captain that Gonadaltes has arrived.”
“I don’t know anyone like that.”
The mercenary guarding the door spit through his teeth and glared at Gonadaltes.
It was an attitude that no matter how luxuriously dressed aristocrats were, they would not be intimidated by two unescorted men.
“okay. you guys don’t know So didn’t you tell me to tell him?”
“I don’t like it. I don’t feel like that.”
The mercenary raised his chin arrogantly.
It was an attitude to pay bribes or to please.
Skeleton Principal said as if it was a pity.
“Then I’ll have to make you feel better.”
As soon as the words were finished, the sword that the skeleton headmaster was holding came out of the scabbard and stabbed the mercenary’s limbs like an arrow.
“Aaah!!”
The moment the blade came out, the limbs froze. The mercenary was frozen to the floor, unable to move, screaming.
“He said he was easily persuaded…”
“There are definitely more stupid people out there. I’m not in a good mood, so I’ll have to adjust the mood to the guys inside. good!”
A flying sword shot into the mercenary building.
Then a bloody scream erupted from inside.
* * *
The Arrowhead mercenaries were people who had been in the capital for less than a year, but they were known to the people around them through active business expansion.
In particular, Ugda, the leader of the mercenaries, made the mercenaries under him happy by demonstrating excellent skills in smuggling, kidnapping, and trading as well as his fighting skills.
“Sending my young bastard to Einrogard. What do you mean?”
“Aren’t you sending them to that mage tower or something?”
“Who is the little one? Is there a young one here?”
“The captain is also true. You know the young guy I bought with that expensive money the other day?”
“Send him away?! How dare you sell him for how much?!”
“Right right!”
“Crazy sorcerer bastards. The real thieves are these guys!”
“But isn’t there nothing good about having a grudge with a wizard?”
“Does not matter. Tear up the letter! Would the wizards come looking for that one guy?”
Ugda gave the order harshly.
The greedy wizards seemed to have heard rumors and sent letters, but they wondered what would happen if they refused.
But Ugda had no idea which mage he was dealing with.
Sorcerers were also wizards.
hooked!
A sword flew out of the air. As the ownerless sword swiftly drew a line in the air, the mercenaries screamed and rolled.
“It’s a wet raid!! attack!”
“Swords are flying…! the wizard… Kuck!”
“Are you feeling better, everyone?”
Headmaster Skeleton kicked the mercenaries into a corner and walked away.
The mercenaries, who did not understand why, grabbed their limbs and groaned.
“Damn the wizard…! What kind of grudge do you have with us…!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sword pierced his arm once more. The mercenary’s eyes widened.
“It’s a grudge. Be careful with your words. Aren’t you putting your mind at ease?”
“What the hell is that…”
Lee Han, worse than that, stunned the mercenary with a water ball.
It was kind of merciful, but it didn’t really touch the mercenaries.
“Monster…monster…!”
“…Honestly, compared to the principal, am I not very generous?”
“To those who don’t know, if you’re a wizard, you’ll all look the same.”
The headmaster of the skeleton gave a plaintive answer and made air holes in the limbs of the mercenary who was running away.
The cool wind hole will make the mercenaries feel better!
