Chapter 686

Episode 686

-I asked who he was…

Kiki.

With the sound of a sliding door opening in the studio, a half-breed dryad appeared.

Elendil walked out, dropping leaves on the floor of the oak tree, and was very happy to see Yihan.

“The Wardanaz family… Yihan!”

“yes.”

Pointing at his junior, Elendil recalled the memory and continued speaking in a slow tone.

“that’s right! The last time I helped and took care of the Dark Spirit…”

‘It seems a bit different from the truth.’

To be precise, it was close to forcibly signing a contract after attacking and subduing the runaway Dark Spirit.

Also, I think I was forced to sign the contract not because Lee Han wanted to do it, but because Elendil pressured him…

“Ah. yes. you’re right.”

“And the person next to you… ugh.”

Elendil saw Diret’s face and quickly backed away.

“How are you… senior…”

“That’s right. hi.”

Dereth waved his hand with an awkward expression.

Elendil also lowered his head, hiding behind the workshop bellows, with an awkward expression on his face.

When the atmosphere suddenly became as suffocating as Adenart and his followers’ tea party, Lee Han looked around.

Unfortunately, there were no juniors than Lee Han in this place.

‘Should I go up to the second grade quickly?’

Lee Han sighed deeply. Without a junior, Lee Han had no choice but to resolve the situation.

“Senior Diet. What happened between you two?”

To the junior’s whispering question, Diret looked at Elendil and answered in a whispering voice.

“I’ve said it before. The black magic school kids were attacked by Elendil when they went into the forest to collect reagents.”

“ah.”

Only then did Lee Han recall the past between the black magic school and Elendil.

Actually, it wasn’t limited to the black magic school.

Among the schools of Einrogard, there was no school that did not need the reagents of the forest.

It was common for students who entered the forest to injure the forest while being greedy, and it was only natural that Elendil, who was trying to protect the forest, collided with them.

“Oh, but senior. Then, if the other seniors are awkward, why is Delet senior awkward?”

“Since I’m from the same school, I went to rescue him…”

Diret brought up the story behind the incident that he hadn’t told me before.

When the students of the school of black magic who were attacked by Elendil were captured, Diret naturally went to the rescue as a senior.

Upon arrival, the students of the Dark Magic School were captured by forest golems…

…Diret had no choice but to destroy all the forest golems and rescue the students.

“Uh, doesn’t it take quite a bit of effort to create a golem-type summoned beast? Did you destroy all of them?”

“I couldn’t help it in that situation! The golem was pretty violent.”

‘Your senior is also quite aggressive.’

Lee Han nodded, thinking of grabbing him by the neck, saying, ‘Is that what you’re talking about’ if Dereth heard it.

Elendil, who was hiding behind the workshop bellows and staring at the two, asked quietly.

“The school of black magic… seems to be close…”

“I also listen to that school of black magic.”

“What… what?! why…!?”

“No, I can hear you.”

Dereth was a little hot.

What’s so surprising about hearing black magic?

…Of course it was a surprise, but…

Illendil was frightened by the reaction and lowered his stance.

“Hey.”

“…Oh no. I’m not angry Junior. look. Aren’t you mad?”

“Isn’t it normal for angry people to say that a lot?”

“Whose side are you on?”

“…Seniors! Senior Diret is not angry! look! You can come out!”

Yllendil hesitantly rose to his feet.

However, his eyes were still full of wariness toward Diret.

“How did you break the forest golem…”

“Hey. Junior. It’s because you didn’t see it then! It’s because he didn’t say anything, he’s also a crazy junior!”

Dereth groaned.

As a senior, I didn’t want to swear at juniors from other schools, so I put up with it, but Illendil also belonged to the most crazy juniors.

Without a word of dialogue, he ordered the forest golems to destroy Diret’s undead army.

Diret also wanted to resolve it peacefully, but was ambushed and had no choice but to explode the undead army and blow up the entire neighborhood.

“What did you come for…?”

“ah. That’s it.”

Lee Han pointed out the studio window and pointed at the gloomy group of wizards.

Still unable to give up and looking for Lee Han, he reminded me of a group of cultists.

Illendil asked in fright if he thought so too.

“Cultist?!”

“It’s not like that.”

Lee Han selected and explained only the less strange parts of today’s events.

When I was active at the exchange meeting, all kinds of magicians came after me…

“Ah. I have been like that too.”

Elendil nodded slowly and agreed with Yihan’s words.

In the past, I went to the alchemist society and it was quite annoying with all sorts of scouting applications.

“It must have been difficult… wait.”

Elendil frowned as if he had noticed someone outside the window.

It was Yukbeltyre.

Elendil asked, displaying a hostility that did not go well with his usual calm and slow demeanor.

“That evil wizard came too?”

“……”

“……”

Lee Han and Diret exchanged glances.

‘I guess I’ll have to hide the close ones, right?’

‘Yes…’

Yllendil said firmly.

“Welcome. Get some rest.”

“thank you. Seniors.”

Elendil, who had finished talking with Lee Han, looked at Diret.

Contrary to the vigilance from earlier, respect was peeking in his eyes.

To protect my juniors against someone like Yukbeltire, I would have even entered the workshop of another school.

“I didn’t know you were such a warm person.”

“Mmm.”

Dereth was embarrassed.

Actually, I was friendly with the evil wizards out there, but if I said that, it seemed that I would never be able to get close with the juniors of this school of alchemy.

“I… I just did what I had to do.”

“That is great.”

Feeling that he could no longer bear the remorse of being praised, Diret changed the subject.

“I’ll be watching to see if the evil wizard comes from over there or not.”

“……”

Lee Han was dumbfounded as he watched Dereth slip away.

No matter what, excuses like that?

“What were you doing?”

“Manufacturing potion… We need to secure research support funds this year.”

Apart from his alchemy skills, Elendil prioritized the forest, and the requests he could receive were limited.

As such, he had no choice but to focus more on this type of potion manufacturing request.

“Because I want to conduct research on the species that trolls prefer to eat…” “

……”

Lee Han was more shocked than when he met Gyomangong today.

Was it Elendil-senpai who proposed that crazy research!?

“That… why?”

Illendil’s face brightened when a brilliant junior showed interest in his research.

“Are you interested?”

“I was just curious about what kind of research it was.”

Yihan, stricken with fear, quickly turned back, but Yllendil had already interpreted it as he liked.

“The forest troll is a powerful monster… but at the same time, it is also a monster that maintains the ecosystem of the forest. It also plays a role in dealing with enemies coming in from the outside…” “

…So, in order to raise forest trolls like that, are you going to study the species you prefer as food?”

At Lee Han’s words, Elendil hesitated. It was a pretty interesting idea.

“I’ve never thought about it…but maybe I can think of it that way.”

“Oh no. I think I got it wrong.”

“okay? That sounds like a good idea…”

Elendil lazily unfolded the research he had written.

As much as the forest troll was a threatening monster, there was a lot of damage caused by it.

In the meantime, Elendil noticed that some races suffered particularly great damage.

Could it be that forest trolls have a preferred race for food?

If you figured out that, adventurers or forest keepers who enter the place where the forest trolls appear will be able to approach them a little more safely.

Forest trolls won’t react if the party doesn’t have a preferred race to feed on.

‘It was a better study than I thought, right?’

It was a sound study to analyze the forest trolls more deeply in order to reduce the damage caused by the forest trolls.

Maybe because the title is a bit odd…

“It sounds like an interesting study.”

“okay?!”

Yllendil was overjoyed.

Although the movement was slow, it did not show much.

“Then would you like to participate in the study? It will definitely be fun.”

Diret, who was standing by the window in the distance, waved his hand in fright.

It was a signal to refuse unconditionally.

In the first place, there was nothing good for Einrogard’s second year students to participate in the research of their seniors.

Of course, nothing was gained.

It was because he was able to grow himself by helping the magic of his superiors.

However, in Diret’s eyes, Lee Han now had too many opportunities to grow by helping magicians who were superior to him.

Starting with the professor right away…

‘I can’t stand it if I help my seniors!’

“I will think about it.”

“I knew you would be interested…!”

“I didn’t agree, but I said I would think about it.”

Lee Han suddenly noticed Yukbeltyre walking down the street in the distance.

Then he looked at Elendil in front of him.

‘…for a moment. I don’t think there’s much of a difference between the two.’

* * *

It seemed that he would only dig his own grave if he continued to talk about research, so Han Lee changed the subject.

“Come to think of it, what kind of potion was requested?”

“ah. This… is a potion I invented. Call it < Liberation from the Skeleton >.”

“That’s an unusual name. What effect does it have?”

“It has the effect of temporarily paralyzing the magic cast by the principal.”

“……”

Lee Han was taken aback by the unexpected effect of the potion.

Come to think of it, Elendil had a history of appearing in front of his juniors in the forest the other day.

It wouldn’t have been possible if it wasn’t for the potion he made.

“Wait, who buys this?”

“Other Einrogard students will buy it.”

Direth crossed his arms and answered instead.

Illendil’s potion was already famous among some students.

“Is this so useful? I’ve never seen seniors using this…”

“I don’t use it to meet my juniors, I use it to avoid the principal’s minions. Among the principal’s minions, there are those who smell the magic the principal has placed and come after him.”

‘It’s really formidable!’

After finishing his first year, Lee Han reflected on his thought, ‘Now I think I know a little about Ein Rogard’.

It seemed that Ein Rogard would never be known. even after graduation.

‘But I’m glad I got to know you on this occasion.’

“Can you teach me too?”

In this case, you have to learn it in advance so that you have a chance to escape from the skull headmaster’s clutches later.

Lee Han asked politely. Fortunately, Elendil readily agreed.

“huh… Because it is not difficult.”

‘It must be very difficult…?’

Diret thought to herself at Elendil’s words.

If it wasn’t really difficult, the students of Einrogard wouldn’t have to pay expensive money to Elendil.

Alchemy’s potion is something that looks simple on the outside, but becomes infinitely more difficult when it becomes difficult.

“Are you doing it like this?”

“Not bad…”

“Here like this?”

“That’s good… Go on.”

“Is this finished?”

“wait for a sec. Let me check… that’s right. It’s done.”

“!?” Sёarᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Dereth listened to the conversation between the two and jumped to her feet.

Who has completed what now?!
