Episode 696
“Senior?!”
Yoner was surprised to see Ihan come back alone and asked.
“I got caught.”
“Thank goodness! “Because Wardanaz wasn’t caught.”
“It’s a blessing in disguise. “Let’s go!”
“……”
Lee Han looked at his friends in astonishment.
Could it be that his friends don’t have human hearts?
* * *
The three who got out safely quickly erased the carriage’s pattern and removed the luggage compartment to separate it.
Then I moved to the place where I had parted ways with my friends.
“!”
“There isn’t one…”
“Lee Han. “We have to move.”
“I know. let’s go.”
I couldn’t go looking for my other friends because they weren’t there.
Wasn’t it one of those situations that was assumed in advance from the beginning when planning?
If you have to leave because of the response, let’s meet again in front of the school gate.
As Ihan continued to look worried while driving the carriage, Yoner comforted him by his side.
“Everyone will be okay. “Maybe it’s because the upper carriage came out a little early?”
“I guess so? “You probably didn’t meet up with the Death Knight patrol, right?”
“Oh, is there something like that…?”
“I don’t know. But it could be possible.”
“……”
Yoner was dumbfounded, but Lee Han was quite serious.
This is something I felt a lot while going in and out of school.
It’s not strange at all if there are Death Knight patrols!
“Wardanaz. “I hear a strange noise.”
Ratford signaled, pricking his ears.
An eerie crying sound was heard from somewhere.
-Ugh…
“…What is it? “Is it a monster…?”
Yoner was taken aback.
Now that it was past dawn and the darkness was almost completely dissipating, what kind of ghost-type monster was coming out?
-I don’t want to go back to school…
-Ugh…
“……”
“……”
Lee Han and his friends looked bitter when they found other friends crying over the hill. .
They weren’t monsters, but friends returning to school.
“Hey guys.”
“Wardanaz!”
“Stop crying and let’s go.”
“Wardanaz, I don’t know anyone who suits Einroguard as well as you!”
“…No, these kids.”
Lee Han got angry and pulled out his cane.
Normally, I might have laughed it off, but the mental fatigue accumulated during the smuggling process made me lose patience.
There are things people can say and things they can’t say. How can people say things like that?
“If you don’t stop crying right now and run, I’ll make you cry more here.”
“You bastard!”
The friends cursed at Lee Han and quickly ran away toward the school.
Lee Han muttered, glaring at their backs.
“How dare you say something like that?”
“……”
“……”
Yoner and Ratford fell silent. Lee Han turned his head to the two and asked.
“You guys think it’s nonsense too, right?”
“huh? Yes. of course.”
“I think it’s nonsense.”
The closer I got to school, the more familiar faces I began to see.
Lee Han found Aden Arth and a group of followers and greeted them.
“ah. Princess.”
“Wardanaz. “I received your letter well.”
“hmm. “I received it well too…”
Lee Han trailed off as he answered.
I was a bit cautious about whether I could say I had received Adenart’s letter well.
‘Can I ask you to write less content from now on? ‘Isn’t that a little rude?’
A follower next to him said with envy towards Lee Han.
“Have you received a letter from Your Majesty? “I’m jealous!”
“You can send it too.”
“It’s rude to pretend to be so friendly like that, Wodanaz!”
‘I think it’s more rude not to send a group letter…’
To put it nicely, it was politeness, but honestly, I thought it was bullying.
Lee Han thought so, but decided to say something nice.
“but. “You guys would have stayed close during the vacation period, so there would have been no need to send letters.”
Aden Arth nodded, showing satisfaction on his expressionless face.
After meeting with each family, the followers gathered around Aden Arth and spent the vacation period together.
It was truly a fulfilling and fulfilling winter vacation.
Hunting, snowy mountain exploration, wizard guild tour, workshop work, participation banquet, etc.
“We also had a great time together.”
Ratford also opened his mouth for the first time in a long time, probably because he wanted to brag.
It was a winter vacation with little income but lots of friendship.
“oh. “How did you send it?”
“I visited the Wardanaz family’s mansion and looked around the estate.”
“!”
Ardenart was surprised by Ratford’s words and felt a little envious.
The Wardanaz family estate is something that anyone who seriously studies magic is bound to be curious about.
“Are you curious? “The territory of the Wardanaz family.”
“that’s right. “I guess it’s a place like Einrogard?”
“You guys are being too harsh. haha.”
Aden Arth was intrigued by the surprisingly positive response from his followers.
If everyone is interested, next vacation…
“Couldn’t you guys visit too?”
“ah. That’s not allowed. “If Her Royal Highness visits another noble family’s territory, there may be rumors spreading.”
“This requires very careful sequencing that takes into account the politics of the empire. “After visiting the loyalist territory, you must visit the noble territory next.”
“My family is a neutral faction.”
“But that doesn’t work. “Your Majesty is strict.”
Adenart became sullen as his words caught up with him.
“next?”
“I went to Flaher City and visited Guyando’s residence.”
“I’m not really jealous of that.”
“It doesn’t look fun.”
“I think Her Royal Highness’s mansion would have been better.”
Immediately, a sour reaction came out from the followers.
Aden Arth also shrugged his shoulders, as if he wasn’t really jealous of that.
Then he thought of something and nudged his followers.
“I think we can do it now.”
“What do you mean?”
“…What I said last time. “Don’t you remember?”
“What is that… Ah! iced coffee!”
The followers cried out as they remembered.
“Wardanaz!”
“huh?”
“I heard you have a huge misunderstanding. “There is a misunderstanding that Her Majesty the Princess stole bread from White Tiger Tower students.”
“To that extent…”
“That’s a misunderstanding! “Your Highness gave us back bread because it was stolen from us first.”
“that’s right. “Your Majesty never took it first.”
“……”
“……”
Yoner and Ratford looked at the proud followers and Aden’Art with sad looks. If nothing else, they didn’t seem to be very good at explaining things.
If you do it so blatantly, wouldn’t there be a false accusation that wasn’t there before?
“Well, I thought something was strange.”
Lee Han answered and looked at the two. Yoner immediately agreed.
“I said it was strange from the beginning!”
“you’re right. I remember saying that not everyone steals bread. haha!”
Aden Arth and his followers were very satisfied with the three’s answers and left.
Then this time a new friend appeared.
He was Asan of the Dalkad family.
“Asan. How are you? “Did you receive the letter?”
“I had a good time. It was a good vacation. “My brother and sister were happy to receive the letter.”
“Thank goodness.”
“You said you wish you were my younger brother?”
“haha. “It feels good, even if it’s just a joke.”
“It seemed like you were serious? “Wardanaz asked when you would come next time.”
“……”
Lee Han decided to be a little more careful when visiting the Dalkad family from now on.
We already had a large enough eccentric family, so we didn’t want to expand it any further.
“Lee Han. excuse me!”
Yoner whispered, holding back his joy. Nilia and the others were coming from far away.
“Everyone is safe!”
“I’m so glad!”
“…Why is Gaina’s complexion like that?”
Lee Han felt puzzled and muttered.
Unlike his other friends, Gainando’s complexion was pale, as if he were half undead.
“Wasn’t it like that originally?”
“I think it was like that.”
At the two’s reactions, Lee Han thought for a moment that he had seen something wrong.
But no.
“You’re pale, right!”
“Isn’t it because I learned black magic?”
“It doesn’t have that effect? “Is everyone okay?”
As his friends approached, Lee Han first checked his condition. Fortunately, there were no other problems other than Gaynando’s pale complexion.
“Gainando. “Why do you have a face…”
When Lee Han asked, Gainando grinned as if he had been waiting.
Even though he was suffering from poison and was staggering around, he was waiting for an opportunity to show off.
“Well…”
“Where did your senior go?”
“I got caught.” Searᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Lee Han answered with a sad expression.
Fearing that his other friends would react without blood or tears like Joner or Ratford, Lee Han quickly explained what had happened.
With as many wonderful adaptations as possible!
“Nonsense…!”
“Amazing! “I never thought he was such a senior!”
Perhaps it was effective, but my friends reacted differently than before.
Yoner and Ratford whispered separately to Ihan, probably because they were embarrassed.
“I just said I’m glad you came out. “You know, right?”
“I thought the senior was caught betraying.”
Sianna opened her mouth as if it was really hard to believe.
“I never thought you would use such magic to attract attention. “It’s truly amazing.”
“I really agree. Although the senior was not from a knightly family, it was a sacrifice worthy of a knight. “I didn’t think he was that kind of person when I first saw him.”
“Wardanaj, your actions changed your senior’s mind. Among the hunters in the mountains, there are people who are eccentric but nice to get to know.”
Lee Han and his friends nodded and commemorated Senior Ulde’s sacrifice.
After finishing the conversation, Lee Han looked at Gai Nando again and asked.
“So what’s wrong with your face?”
“…wait for a sec. I want to talk later. “If I tell you now, my story is a bit…”
“What should I tell you later?” “Tell me now.”
“no! “If I say it now, I’m weak by comparison!”
While they were talking, Lee Han felt a moment of discomfort.
‘what?’
It felt as if a huge magic tricked Lee Han’s senses and secretly passed by.
Pot!
“!”
As expected, the feeling of discomfort was exactly right.
When I came to my senses, all the second-year students waiting outside the main gate had moved inside.
nice to meet!
“…Yes…”
“Nice to meet you…”
The second-year students understood the situation and greeted the skeleton principal in a weak voice.
The year they spent at Einrogard taught them what they learned.
Aren’t you happy about the new semester?
“I’m happy…”
That’s right! You are no longer iron heads! You’ve spent a valuable year at school, so you’ll have a bronze head!
“……”
“……”
The students who achieved the Bronze qualification glared at the skeleton principal with eyes that looked like they were about to collapse with joy.
That’s not all. Now you are qualified to meet and talk to your seniors! They come in before you, study before you, and end up meeting marauders who are much worse and more vicious than you!
“Can I join the club?”
Yes! But the way you only focus on social activities without asking about magic research or new classes you can take, I can clearly see your future!
The White Tiger Tower student, who had been scolded for asking just one question, grumbled.
Your seniors, not me, will explain what lectures you will take, what research you will conduct, how you will secure gold coins, and how you will participate in club activities. There is no need to be too impatient. We will be able to see your seniors’ skills during the inspection that will take place later.
“Inspection time?”
“What is that?”
Some friends I didn’t know yet tilted their heads.
Lee Han and his party managed their facial expressions. There was nothing good about looking like you knew something.
I’m going to leave now and I’d like to say have a nice day… but I have to do one thing.
The Skeleton Principal said, pumping up his magic power like a waterfall.
Now that you are qualified to meet and talk to your seniors, you have an obligation not to meet and talk to your juniors. Let this gold protect the good Ironheads from you evil men!
With the shout, powerful magic created a series of green waves that spread among the students like waves.
This year, the ban began for all second-year students.
A prohibition that is not recognized by first graders and prevents direct contact with second graders!
Since the students had already experienced it in their first year, they accepted it calmly without being embarrassed. Aren’t prohibitions, restrictions, and secret oaths like breathing in Einrogard?
Meanwhile, Lee Han tilted his head.
No matter how I looked at it, it didn’t feel like magic had been applied.
“Uh, principal? “I think you left me out.”
You have a lot of magic power, so you don’t get caught easily. Avoid it yourself. You can probably do that.
“……”
