Episode 645
“There will always be a smile on the faces of the people of the Wodanaz family estate. really. Mr. Wodanaz. I heard you went around with the principal during this vacation?”
“huh. Among the juniors, I persuaded the kids who didn’t want to come in.”
“why?!”
Gainando was stunned when he heard it from the side.
Why did he commit such an evil deed?
Friends ignored them and continued talking.
“Come to think of it, were there any memorable juniors among your juniors?”
“hmm. There was a junior who was gifted as a knight and was born with psychic powers…”
“Oh.”
“They hate fighting.”
“??”
Friends tilted their heads.
Aside from the fact that knights hate fighting, is it okay to hate fighting in Einrogard?
“But you did a good job persuading me.”
“Aren’t there any students at the Blue Dragon Tower?”
“There was a junior from Pengerin-sama’s family. Your skills are fine.”
Yoner and Gainando were very interested in Lee Han’s words.
If you were a junior of the Pengerin family, wouldn’t you enter the Blue Dragon Tower?
Of course, because of the rules to protect freshmen, I couldn’t meet him right away in my sophomore year, but it was nice to see an outstanding junior come to my top.
“What’s your personality?! What’s your personality?!”
“I am full of confidence because I have skills.”
“this!”
Gainando let out a sigh.
The most important thing for juniors was personality, not magic skills or wisdom.
A junior who is polite and knows how to respect seniors should come in!
“How about a wizard card or a dish?”
“Why do you ask that…”
Nilia looked at Gainando as if she was dumbfounded.
“Are you looking for a new nanny among your juniors?”
“Didn’t you just say wordanaz?”
“Oh no.”
Ratford, who had been listening to the story, asked curiously.
“Have you ever had a junior like me?”
“There was. Well done Ratford. When you meet, will you talk well with each other?”
Lee Han thought it was going well, so he brought up the story of Priest Carre of the Bildotzcal Church.
At first, Ratford listened with interest, but his expression crumpled as the story progressed.
“You are a very stupid junior!”
“Is that so?”
“I’m so greedy that I didn’t even join the guild. What does the guild think! A junior like that would probably act alone even after entering the dormitory.”
Ratford was unusually angry.
Even though they were from the same thief, their way of thinking was completely opposite.
‘hmm. It’s a relief that we won’t see each other for a year.’
Han Lee thought to himself. Ratford looked at Lee Han and asked.
“Mrs. Wardanaz. You must have given that stupid junior a sharp lesson, right?”
“Water, of course. They said you shouldn’t do it that way.”
“Very well done! What else did you say?”
“Uh, so I have to take care of my friends…”
While Yihan, overwhelmed by Ratford’s spirit, lied, Eandurde, who was next to him, stared at Yihan.
Only then did Lee Han realize that he had left out one person and hurriedly shouted.
“really. There is a reliable junior from the Black Turtle Tower here!”
Eandurde nodded proudly at Lee Han’s praise. Nilia and Ratford praised the outstanding junior.
“I’m glad a reliable junior like you came.”
“you’re right. I am very excited.”
“What are you expecting…”
Guinando muttered inaudibly to Eandurde.
I still felt the pain in my wrist from being bitten by my junior.
“really. Mr. Wodanaz. Are the others not coming?” Searᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
“The only ones who sent letters saying they were coming were Durgyu and Priest Shiana, but I don’t know when they’ll arrive. Will it come soon?”
“I am here.”
With the sound of the door opening, Suin the penguin entered with a tired face.
Students who expected other friends to come saw Alcicle and stood up to greet them.
“hello. Mr. Pengerin.”
“Nice to meet you all.”
Alcicle trimmed the tangled feathers and set down the basket of herbs.
Seeing this, Yoner was puzzled and asked.
“You want to make a potion?”
“no. Wardanaz asked for it.”
“……”
“……”
Yoner looked at Lee Han in amazement.
Did you just use the Pengerin family’s Alcicle as an herbal messenger?
He’s quite a famous wizard among the young budding wizards in the empire…
‘How did you ask?’
Yoner slightly suspected that his friend had used mind magic.
I wondered if he tricked me into something to eat, but that would only work for Gainando…
“Here is the sardine. I fried some while you were away.”
“and! thanks.”
Alcicle casually took the plate and tossed it into his beak and sat down.
‘You tricked me into something to eat!?’
In fact, the reason why Alcicle was accepting Lee Han’s request was that he was indebted to him too.
In the last experiment, he poured so much mana generously, so he couldn’t help me with an errand like this.
Besides, I didn’t know what else to ask…
‘He seems to really like sardines.’
“Arsil-nim left?”
“yes.”
Alcicle, who heard the story from Lee Han, crackled his beak as if he was curious.
It was completely different from when ordinary nobles left.
Originally, a luxurious banquet was held and various events were to follow along with musical instruments, but Arsil left without thinking that someone was not from the Wodanaj family.
“Wardanaz. I suddenly became curious, but it seems that neither the head of the family nor the other members of the family had much interest in social events… How did you participate in social events when you were young?”
Of course, there were escort knights and golem demons who swore allegiance to the mansion, but just having them didn’t mean you could participate in social events.
It was impossible to participate in a social event unless the members of the family participated in the formality.
“ah. Relatives helped. I usually go there.”
“aha. I see.”
Alcicle, who nodded and munched on the fried sardines, tilted his head inwardly.
‘uh? Was there a collateral branch of the Wardanaz family?’
If it did, it would have been much more famous, so why don’t I remember hearing about it?
“really. Mr Penguin. I have a question for you.”
Lee Han took out the sheet music he received from the grave.
Originally, I planned to decipher it slowly, but Arsil’s words were so meaningful that I became curious.
“It’s the sheet music I found in the ancient tomb behind this manor, but I was wondering if you could read the text.”
“Are ancient tombs so common in the back of your manor…?”
Alcicle received the sheet music even though he was embarrassed.
I thought I would do my best to answer Lee Han’s question.
In fact, it is rare to prove your abilities in front of this boy from the Wodanaz family other than this.
‘Maybe it’s just my mood, but sometimes it seems like they see me as a wizard who lives off my looks.’
Alcicle stared at the sheet music. However, I couldn’t immediately recall which era it was.
“Ugh. Mmmmm…”
A long moan.
Lee Han, who couldn’t see it, carefully opened his mouth.
“It’s okay if you don’t know…”
“Oh no! It’s a familiar letter! a little bit! Just a little more time!”
“Ah yes.”
Alcicle stared intently through the parchment.
Ratford, who was watching from the side, opened his mouth without thinking.
“Isn’t this a text from the Ga Kingdom?”
“Go… Go Kingdom! That’s right, a text from the Ga Kingdom period! Whoa! If you gave me one more minute, no, 30 seconds, I could have remembered it too. really!”
At Alcicle’s desperate excuse, Ratford responded in bewilderment.
“I thought it would, of course.”
“It’s not really an excuse!”
“Pengerin. Calm down. This is not a game to guess first.”
“Keuuugh…!”
Alcicle realized his ugliness and sat down again, blushing.
The days of the fake kingdom, which means the days of the fake kingdom, was a nightmare for imperial historians.
The era of Ihabjipsan where there was no proper king and there were many people who pretended to be the king.
In the history of the continent, there were more cases of division than integration, but the division was particularly severe during the kingdom.
To save face, Alcicle took out a letter book from his Ga Kingdom days and began to read the sheet music.
“I praise the sacrifice of the king… The king prevented the misfortune that befell him in front of the wall… It seems roughly like a hymn and a funeral song, but I can’t read the notes or lyrics under the title. It probably belongs to you.”
“!”
Just as the name of a spirit can only be read and called by the person who contracted it, there were some spells that only a specific person could read and memorize.
Alcicle, like a seasoned magician, noticed the magic on the score when the notes and lyrics on the score didn’t come through no matter how much he read them.
“My older brother said that this song would help me, but why? There would be no reason for me to sing hymns or funeral odes.”
“Probably not because of the lyrics, but because of the magic in the song.”
After hearing from Lee Han about what happened inside the tomb, Arcicle sharply guessed Arsil’s intentions.
The reason Arsil recommended this song from an unnamed ancient kingdom to Wardanaj wasn’t because of its lyrics or melody.
It was because of the power of the song.
“I heard that this song dominated the surrounding area? It’s bigger than you think.”
“!”
In order to dominate their territory, the wizards put more effort than expected.
Just how many magics were inscribed in the magician’s workshop or magic tower right now.
Conversely, it meant that it was difficult to dominate the territory.
Controlling a vast space where all kinds of power flow irregularly is controlled by individual will.
But the sorcerers of this ancient realm have succeeded in demonstrating something like that with the songs engraved on the tombs.
It’s gone now and the pulse of magic has been cut off, but it was certain that it was a great thing.
“I never thought of it that way.”
“so do i. In the first place, something like music magic wasn’t even worth studying.”
“The principal said that I should learn the language, but what do you think?”
“…The spirit is not some kind of levitation spell, so there’s no way you can learn it that easily.”
Alcicle looked at Lee Han as if he was dumbfounded.
I knew that Headmaster Skeleton had no conscience, but he really had no conscience.
It’s okay to not learn music magic, but to learn the language…
‘Did you mean that?’
Lee Han was lost in thought.
After listening to Arcicle’s explanation, I could understand why Arsil asked me to keep this sheet music carefully.
It was clear that Arsil wanted Yihan to learn how to control the realm as a mage.
Other methods for controlling the now known domain have been far more complex or challenging.
If you compare it to the level of difficulty of the spell magic right now, no matter how difficult this sheet music is, it is incomparable.
In contrast, the music magic of this forgotten kingdom provided Lee Han with an ingenious shortcut that other magics could not provide.
“By the way, is Pengerin not interested in this magic? Sounds pretty great to hear…”
Alcicle replied plaintively.
“I’m interested in it, but just looking at it, it consumes too much mana.”
“ah.”
“The people of the kingdom probably made it only play in the tomb. It won’t fit with you, it won’t fit with me.”
Eandurde tilted her head and asked.
“Are you a sword with poor skills?”
“no!”
“no. Eandurde. Don’t say anything rude.”
Lee Han covered his junior’s mouth.
There were so many magics to learn right now, but even taking that into account, this magic was definitely worth a try.
What passed through Lee Han’s head was his own world once shown by the headmaster skeleton.
The ultimate in magic that goes beyond dominating a realm and turns it into your own rules.
Of course, if you master this music magic perfectly, you won’t be able to write your own world, but I didn’t know if I could take the first step on that long road.
“thank you. Mr Penguin. Let’s practice hard one more time. I also got a violin as a gift.”
“okay. Are you going to practice now?”
Alcicle looked at Lee Han with expectant eyes.
Even if it wasn’t magic that he could learn, he was always curious about magic he didn’t know.
“no. I’m going to pick up some herbs first. I don’t have enough to complete the quest.”
“…I’ll pick up the herbs, so you practice music magic.”
Alcicle couldn’t stand it and was serious.
