Chapter 685

Episode 685

Wizards borrowed power from beings from other dimensions in various ways.

First, there was the coercive method.

After subduing the existence of another dimension, it is to submit so that it cannot escape.

It was the simplest and cleanest way if you had the ability to subdue and subdue. The lord of a certain magic school or the head of a certain family enjoyed using this method.

Then there was the trick.

It was a way to make a contract with a being from another dimension, but put all sorts of complicated tricks into the contract to take advantage of the wizard.

This method worked well for demonic, greedy, preying beings.

In the end, if you are greedy, you have no choice but to be deceived.

There were as many demons who were fooled by wizards as there were people who were fooled by demons.

Finally, there was a contract.

Relationships that help each other while building friendships and friendships with beings in other dimensions.

It was a way that was often seen by beings who were friendly and gentle to people like ordinary spirits.

And, surprisingly, Diret was attempting to research a pseudo-permanent organ using demonic magic as the last method.

“Uh, is that possible?”

Lee Han was more surprised than he had just been.

I didn’t have a particular prejudice against the devil, but basically the devil was a being who did not cover the means and methods for his own ends.

Even if the demons seen in the Wodanaz family and Einrogard looked kind and docile, they were bound by contracts, so it wasn’t strange if they showed their teeth right away when the contracts were broken.

“It is not impossible. I’m having a bit of trouble…”

“I think it would be much better to extract mana forcibly.”

“…Ah, I told you to drag him away!”

As Yukbeltyre advised from afar, Diret shouted in an annoyed voice.

* * *

It was only after three hours had passed that Lee Han was able to leave the exchange venue.

Recovery did not take long. In fact, the recovery itself was recovered enough to be able to move after about 30 minutes.

After that, 2 hours and 30 minutes passed while talking to the wizards who participated in the exchange meeting.

-Our magic tower is researching the supermarine school style. Are you interested?

– I don’t know much about sea creatures. S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

-haha. That crazy magic… No, that enormous magic power is enough. Welcome!

-……

-Our guild is studying the Empire’s Spirit Forest and its influence. I really want to serve Mr. Wardanaj.

-I don’t get along very well with the spirits.

– Ooh ha ha ha! Jokes too! How can someone who borrows the power of such a great spirit have a bad relationship with the spirit?

-……

Of course, most proposals ended up making Lee Han sad.

Fortunately, there were some tempting suggestions. Lee Han diligently took notes for reference when he later went back to Ein Lorgard and received the request.

-Ignore the suggestions from the mages here. I’ll make you an offer you can’t refuse. My research…

– No, why does this person keep coming out? pull it out quickly!

On the way, there were times when Jinsang sunbaenim intervened and acted haphazardly, but I managed to escape anyway.

“I’m exhausted…”

Diret, who had barely brought Lee Han out, muttered in a voice full of tiredness.

Come to think of it, it seemed like it was the first time that he had forcibly taken out a junior who was popular with other wizards.

Basically, the students of the school of black magic are far from this kind of interest.

I never thought I would be so tired!

“Junior. Come this way.”

“I’m fine now.”

“no.”

Diete said sternly.

He received the help of healing magic as well as his own magic, but the aftereffects of integrating with the Great Spirit were not to be taken lightly.

Even if you look fine now, the rebound suddenly came back and you could collapse.

“It’s not just magic or physical strength, but the amount of magic information can also damage a wizard’s brain. Didn’t you feel a different magic when you united with the Great Spirit?”

“!”

Lee Han noticed what Diret was saying.

The power of lightning used by Perkuntra was completely different from the lightning magic Lee Han used so far.

From how to deal with the lightning element to how far magic can be extended.

That intense memory still remained to some extent even after the unification was resolved.

“It’s dangerous to forcibly train magic that doesn’t fit your level, but it’s even more dangerous to force it into your brain. You need to be careful for a while.”

“By the way, Professor Baegrek forced me to practice magic that did not fit my level. The principal even forcibly puts it in his brain…”

Diret pretended not to hear the junior’s question.

“huh?”

“Professor Bagreck and the principal…”

“What?”

“…it’s nothing.”

Instead of holding on to the senior’s words, Lee Han vowed to be careful for a while.

It seemed appropriate to take care of yourself without recalling the magic Ferkuntra had shown you until you were ready.

‘But I think you’re worrying too much about this…?’

Lee Han stared at the back of the head of Diret’s pet, a high-ranking demon, carrying him on his back.

-■■■?

“oh. it’s nothing. Thank you for picking me up.”

The senior demon nodded with a blunt expression. Diet looked at it and said.

“I was surprised that you, junior, have a kind personality unlike your appearance.”

“I get misunderstood often. Anyway, there are beings who judge people by magical power.”

Lee Han said with indignation. Diret thought a little bit about whether it was because of magic.

‘I don’t think I can make a contract with the Great Spirit just because I have a lot of magical power…’

“Senior than that.”

“Huh? Didn’t I think anything?”

“yes? It’s not that, because there are a lot of people gathered on the road there. Is there a problem?”

“!”

At the words of his junior, Diret threw his gaze and was startled.

The streets of Flaher City are dark because dawn has not yet come.

Above the street, the light of magic lanterns shimmered the shapes of people.

As you can see, it was not an ordinary number.

“It’s a big deal!”

“Are they suspicious people? Are you anti-magicists?”

“…Not that suspicious people! Those are wizards.”

“What wizards?”

“Magicians who heard the rumors of the exchange meeting!”

As Flaher City was a large city, there were many wizards, and among them, there were far more wizards who did not participate in the exchange meeting.

Not all magicians are interested in the exchange meeting.

But sometimes there are exceptions.

When a rumor spread that would cause even the wizards sitting in the mansion to wake up, the wizards rushed in like this.

“Kuk. I did it because my senior told me to feed Yukbeltyre in one shot…” “

…I didn’t know I could feed it this far! How could anyone expect that!”

Dereth was also really unhappy about this.

No professor would have expected this to happen under the circumstances.

“Can’t we just break through?”

“There are too many numbers for that. It would just take hours if we exchanged just one word. Junior. Research is important to be active as a magician for a long time…”

“The ability to win research grants is also important, right?”

“…Oh no. Not that.”

When the junior gave a more realistic answer than expected, Diret was taken aback.

Diret did not yet know that the junior in front of him had been praised as a ‘destroyer of bureaucracy’ by the skeleton principal during vacation.

“That’s important, but the lesson I wanted to tell you was don’t hang out with strange wizards.”

“aha.”

Lee Han nodded.

That was definitely right.

“Are you talking about people like Professor Verdus or Yukbeltyre?”

“…no… strangers than those two.”

Dereth almost replied that he was right at the moment, but shook his head and regained his senses.

It wasn’t something an Einrogard student would say, but there were so many strange people among the wizards.

It would have been better if it was simply a mage who was crazy about research. A scammer who has no interest in magic but wants to trick others

into extracting gold coins A bargainer who wants to get money by introducing a criminal wizard who uses magic to another guild or mage tower…

There were surprisingly few wizards who wanted to walk.

For this reason, wizards who took the path of magic seriously should not associate with suspicious people.

If you get involved, you’ll only waste your time!

“In the past, among my seniors, there was one senior who was popular that way.”

“Are you from the school of black magic?”

“no. Another school… Hey. What did you mean now?”

“I was just asking for confirmation.”

“Anyway, that senior would often come to me and make suggestions, but I think there was something tempting about them. They accepted the offer and did something together.”

“How was it?”

“Imperial newspapers reported that a wizard from Einrogard was caught cheating with magic…”

Diret said in a sullen voice.

Time passed, but it was still a painful memory.

At that time, the skeleton principal went into a rage and searched the students, and the memory was still vivid.

‘That’s right.’

Lee Han listened with even more concentration as it was no one else’s business. He himself had a dream about his own business.

‘I definitely have to be careful.’

“It’s better if it’s a magician enough to participate in an exchange meeting. You don’t have to hang out with all those magicians one by one.”

“for a moment. Aren’t you Yukbeltire senior over there?”

“what? What nonsense…”

Diret narrowed his eyes at Lee Han’s words and looked ahead.

Yukbeltyre was standing by the roadside with the escorts.

“If you find it, explain my research and make suggestions.”

“yes. All right.”

“The wizards get in the way here. Let those who can buy them buy them.”

“……”

As a senior, he couldn’t disperse the merchants for his juniors, but Diret lowered his head at the sight of him trying to use them for himself by buying them.

He was a friend of his that he would be ashamed of wherever he was.

“Let’s go back… there’s an alleyway over there…”

“…cheer up.”

“I’m fine…”

Even if he said that, Diret’s wings felt particularly flaccid today.

* * *

-Why are wizards doing this in the middle of the night? Citizens are afraid.

-We’re just trying to find someone…

“I can’t. Let’s go inside.”

Diret chose to just enter the building when the number of wizards was higher than expected.

When the day dawns, they too will give up and scatter.

“Do you know of a place?”

“There is a workshop nearby.”

As the exchange venue itself was located in the wizard district of Flaher City, there were several workshops of guilds and mage towers nearby. The same was true of the workshop that Ein Rogard’s school had set up on its own.

‘hmm?’

Lee Han hesitated, then stopped.

Come to think of it, I wondered if the workshop of the school of black magic could be here.

Even though it’s called the wizard area, shouldn’t it be in a more secluded place near the cemetery on the outskirts?

“Are you sure it’s a workshop of the school of black magic?”

“The school of alchemy.”

“aha.”

“…yes what. The school of black magic shouldn’t even have a workshop here.”

“no. senior. Why do you do that? They thought the location wasn’t right because of the supply of reagents. Rather, it is the workshop of the alchemy school, can we go in?”

“I’m relatively close with the alchemy students… I even got permission from Professor Thunderwalker. And there will be no one inside.”

Diret cast a spell. Then, with a creaking sound, the studio door opened. Inside, there was a pungent odor mixed with various reagents.

-who?

“…ruined.”

Dereth murmured softly. Lee Han asked as he came down from the back of the senior demon.

“Why is that?”

“There is a junior that I am not close with. It’s Elendil… Ah. Wait. Junior.”

Diret, who belatedly recalled his memories, looked at Lee Han expectantly.

Lee Han replied firmly.

“I’m not friendly either.”
