“You’re not kidding… are you?”

“I’m not kidding about Ein Rogard.”

“Come to think of it, I heard that the principal is rich.”

“You don’t have a lot of gold. But I don’t recommend beating it. If you get caught, you will go straight to jail.”

“If you get caught, do you send them to jail outside?!”

“no. A dungeon inside the school. There is a punishment room. I go if I get caught stealing, and I go even if my grades are bad.”

“……”

Carre had to seriously think about whether this senior was really making fun of her.

However, the senior’s expression was very serious. No one seemed to think that what he said with that face was a lie.

“I said it before, but if you learn magic, you might change your mind. You might think of a better way to get rich than stealing.”

“A bigger theft?”

“That could be a better way. Anyway, the point is to be patient for a while in order to learn magic. To take two steps forward, you have to be able to take one step back.”

Carre was troubled.

I liked the fact that senior Lee’s advice was very realistic, unlike the unrealistic advice of other priests to give up greed and increase faith.

I still couldn’t figure out what kind of place Einrogard really was, but I could endure it for a while to enter.

“great! I’ll try to be patient. Can I go and tell the bishop?”

“okay. well thought out Actually, I wanted to give you some advice not to get caught even if you steal, but with your skills, that seems impossible.”

“…?!”

Carre was shocked.

Even a senior exuding an aura of nobility, these were words that could not be overlooked.

“What… what… what? Did I hear wrong? Seniors??”

“You heard it right. The Bishop knows. Then you got caught. Stealing is not like that.”

“What do you know, senior? Because I just didn’t hide it?! I could have hidden it as much as I could…”

While Carre burst into anger and ran wildly, Lee Han slowly raised his fist and opened his palm.

Carre’s silver coin pouch was held on top of that palm.

It was something I sneaked up on when I asked to sit down earlier.

“Didn’t you notice? Stealing is like this.”

“?!?!?!?!”

“I combined magic with the skills I learned from my friend. You can steal it cleanly like this.”

Even the same pickpocket could do it much more skillfully and accurately if he moved after applying reinforcement magic and foresight magic in advance.

The skills that Ratford had taught me were combined with magic and were blooming like this outside of Einrogard.

Carre was completely speechless.

Because his pride as a thief was completely destroyed, his heart was filled with resentment, but at the same time, awe welled up in him.

I want to learn!

Lee Han, who thought he had properly persuaded his junior, returned the pocket and said,

“I know you’re confident, but don’t be overconfident until you’re really good at it. I hope you understand.”

“I totally understand. Seniors.”

Carre nodded and looked straight at Lee Han. There was a glimmer of determination in his eyes.

“I have decided. I won’t steal anything outside until I’m skilled enough to steal my senior’s pocket! Wait and see!”

“okay. By the way, my name is Cainando.”

“yes! Senior Kainando!”

Lee Han tried to tell Carre, ‘I can’t meet my seniors in the first year’, but ended up telling him.

I did a good job persuading him, but I didn’t want to discourage him.

‘If I find out that it’s a fake name someday, I’ll learn a lesson.’

The lesson not to trust seniors was a much more important lesson than I thought.

Lee Han was proud of the fact that he had taught his juniors an important lesson.

“By the way, senior.”

“hmm?”

“Senior, are you from a thieves’ guild and not from a noble family?”

Carre asked cautiously.

At first, he thought he was from an aristocrat based on his statue-like appearance, but no matter how he looked at it, he smelled like himself.

“Bishop. I reflected. From now on, I will stop stealing and concentrate on magic!”

“…!”

Bishop Ines was really surprised. I asked while looking at the skeleton headmaster.

“Did you mean this by grumbling?”

“yes. What did I say?”

“?”

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

“What conversation did you have?”

“You grumbled and said that doing it all is your hobby.”

“……”

Lee Han contemplated whether to swing the chair he was trying to swing earlier.

When Carre nodded and left, the bishop expressed his sincere thanks.

“thank you.”

“what. have something like this.”

“I said it to Mr. Wodanaz, not to Mr. Gonadaltes.”

“I know too.”

The Bishop decided to just ignore the Headmaster Skeleton. Looking at Lee Han again, he said.

“I never thought I could convince Carre like that.”

“hmm. Bishop. In fact, I did not completely reform Carre.”

Lee Han said carefully, lest the bishop misunderstand.

But the old bishop was not very surprised.

“I know. How can a person change all at once? What I am grateful for is that you have instilled interest in magic in Carre.”

The bishop did not expect Carre to convert instantly.

I wanted to experience various things and increase my interest, not just immersed in stealing.

And if it was magic, it would be really reassuring.

Carre’s decision I just saw was real. I definitely felt the will to stop petty stealing and study until I entered magic school.

“Thank you again. Please take good care of Carre.”

“The first year can’t meet the second year.”

Bishop and Lee Han pretended not to hear as a group. The two communicated without even saying a word.

As they said goodbye and came out of the temple, the Headmaster Skeleton asked in a curious voice.

“How did you convince me? You look a little stubborn, don’t you?”

“hmm. If you want to steal, steal it from Ein Lorgard.

“……”

Headmaster Skeleton looked at Lee Han as if he were trash.

* * *

…The last letter was well received. Wodanaz. Also, in case you talked to Yoner, you mentioned that you accidentally overlapped the contents of the letter. sorry! Really, how did it come out? Isn’t that why you don’t send letters? I’m really sorry!

I heard that you visited the Northern Mountains. Thanks for talking nice to the range hunters. Hunters say you’re close with Moradi. I don’t know how rumors really spread. It can’t be. But you’re not really sending letters, are you?

The Maikin family mansion is really comfortable. The tablecloth used here will be higher quality than my original dorm blanket. I still don’t get used to having the maids change my clothes, but… Maybe that’s why I didn’t send you a letter because of what I said last time?

really. I met Yoner’s sister. It’s my opinion, but I thought it would be better to avoid it for a while. really. Are you going to send a letter?…

‘…I need to write a reply right away.’

Lee Han felt sorry for nothing when he saw Nilia’s crooked letter.

…I’m sure you’re also sweating a lot. Wodanaz. These days, I am carving and polishing obelisks with the guild’s outstanding craftsmen. It makes me happy that the magic I learned at school wasn’t in vain.

I want to build the greatest structure in the empire someday. I would be happy if you contributed to the building…

‘Salco. In order to build a great building, you need to find investors.’

As soon as Lee Han heard his friend’s dream, he started calculating in his head.

Shouldn’t someone be realistic?

…Today there was an event for nobles in the capital. I remembered this anecdote

.

Lee Han checked the owner of the letter, wondering if he had read it wrong.

who sent it?

There’s no way Adenart sent it again in the meantime, and there were other friends who talked a lot through letters

like this



That’s right.

‘Are you bored?’

…The bouillabaisse I ate there was really good. I want to serve it to Danaz someday. I’m glad Naz sent it…

‘I guess I’ll have to contact my followers and ask them to send me a letter right away.’

The followers’ thoughts were obvious. It was evident that he kept quiet, perhaps thinking that he could not be rude and send the letter first.

If you leave it like this, letter bombs will fly!

“Wait here for a moment.”

“yes.”

The carriage stopped and the headmaster went outside, but Lee Han wasn’t surprised.

This is not the first time this has happened on this trip.

Alcicle asked with a yawn.

“Wardanas, are you going to the family manor now?”

“yes. After saying hello and inviting friends who can come, I’m going to do my job.”

“Is it your job to study magic?”

“no. You will be commissioned.”

“Adventurer request? why? Do you have any reagents for magic?”

“Because it makes money?”

“…That’s right.”

Alcicle was startled. It was a much more direct reason than I thought.

‘ah. is not it? Are you trying to raise money for magic research?’

Well, now that I think about it, if it’s a guy like Wodanaz, even if it’s the same second year, the scale of the magic research or experiment he’s aiming for will be on a different level.

Then, of course, the cost will be different in the number of digits.

It was understandable that they were collecting hard from now on.

“…To work hard! I will cheer you on!”

“thank you.”

Shortly thereafter, the skeleton headmaster returned.

The Skeleton Principal returned calmly, holding a package the size of a man next to him.

“What is it? It’s a package just like a person.”

“A person is right.”

Headmaster Skeleton threw the package into the corner of the wagon. Then, a familiar aristocrat, tied up tightly in the package, jumped out. He was also someone I had met.

“This… Duke of Ikhaldoren!”

“what!? who!?”

Alcicle was startled enough to miss the can of sardines he was holding.

The skeleton headmaster often kidnapped people, but he did not know that he would kidnap the duke of the empire.

Duke Ikhaldoren struggled and looked at Headmaster Skeleton.

“Ugh! Ugh!”

“Gonadaltes. Are the words of Wardanaz true?! No matter how you do it, you can’t just kidnap the imperial duke like this!”

“Don’t worry. After all, that guy has a lot of weaknesses, so he won’t be able to talk about it.”

“But…”

“Think carefully. Penguin. Have I kidnapped a person once or twice? Could I have brought the duke recklessly without trusting anyone?”

‘That’s right!’

Arcicle was strangely persuaded.

Certainly, Sir Gonadaltes was not the kind of person who would do something like this without thinking.

“ruler. Wodanaz. take this I had a lot of trouble during this trip.”

The skeleton headmaster threw a heavy bag of gold coins.

It was filled with more gold coins than Lee Han had accumulated through sweat and blood this year.

“…!”

“That’s enough to put in.”

“principal!”

“why?”

“Do you have any dukes to bring more to the wagon?”

In response to Lee Han’s question, Headmaster Skeleton looked at Alcicle and said,

“…Sometimes you are my student, but do you know that there are times when I get a little creepy too?”

‘Who did you learn all about?’

Alcicle muttered to himself.
