Chapter 428

"Is there anything to gain by going that far?"

"What are you saying, Priest Nigisor? Of course there's a lot. Where do you think the stew that came out for dinner came from? Could you make something like that with the black bread and cold rice balls given by Einroguard?"

The priests who had eaten deliciously had nothing to say even if they had ten mouths.

No matter how frugally and humbly the priests had lived, if they kept eating warm and greasy meals, they would naturally adapt to it.

At first, the priests who said, 'You shouldn't do this,' 'We don't eat such meals,' 'If you say that much, I'll just eat a little of this bread,' were now naturally responding with 'I'll eat well,' 'Thank you always.'

"Th, then I'm sorry. You didn't have to go out of your way to prepare it..."

"No. You don't need to be sorry. I prepared it because I wanted to."

Yi-Han had already made them feel sorry, but he continued.

"But what I want to say is a different point. You have to act rather than just sit still. What if Gainando from the Blue Dragon Tower collapses from starvation?"

"I would share my bread."

"Yes. But what if there are two people? Three people? The entire tower?"

Priestess Siana, who was listening next to them, tilted her head.

"What happened to the Blue Dragon Tower that all the students are starving to death?"

Yi-Han ignored it as if he hadn't heard.

"The important thing is that such situations are difficult to overcome with the kindness of individual priests."

If it were the Black Tortoise Tower or the White Tiger Tower, they would have ignored it, saying, 'What nonsense,' but perhaps because the priests were kind, they listened quite intently.

Moreover, it was a quite relatable topic.

"Indeed..."

"That makes sense."

"Right? What would be the solution to this problem?"

"Well... since it's difficult for an individual to solve, if all the priests join forces and share a little of what they have to eat..."

Unlike his usual confident attitude, Priest Nigisor spoke a little hesitantly.

The madness Yi-Han had shown today had made Priest Nigisor a little scared.

"No, that's not it."

"Oh, it's not?"

"Then if the White Tiger Tower and Black Tortoise Tower guys are also on the verge of starving to death, it can't be solved."

"???"

Priestess Siana, who was listening, became even more confused.

What on earth happened that the students of all three towers are starving to death...?

"Then?"

"The answer is to raid Einroguard's warehouse in advance and bring in supplies from outside to stock up. Then even if such a crisis hits, we can overcome it."

"..."

"..."

The priests were perplexed, but Yi-Han continued seriously. Then, a voice filled with strong persuasion began to captivate the priests.

"It's not that you're raiding the warehouse and smuggling from outside for your own luxury. You can also raid the warehouse and smuggle from outside to help your friends."

"Indeed... listening to it, it seems to make sense."

"It's certainly not easy to help if you have nothing even if you want to help. It's difficult because of ingredients even if you try to make potions and distribute them right away."

Priest Nigisor, who belonged to the radical faction, and the pragmatic Priestess Siana were quickly persuaded.

Priestess Tijiling next to them looked at the two priests with a very perplexed gaze.

Even so...

Is that okay?

"I understand."

"Tell the other priests later too. That it's not for luxury, but for doing good deeds. It would be good if everyone does it in advance."

"I'll definitely tell them!"

The three mages exchanged glances with a firm resolve.

'If the Immortal Phoenix Tower priests help, Einroguard's black market will become a bit more abundant.'Findd new stories at novelhall.com

Since they were more advantageous for night walks than other tower students, if they actively stepped up, supplies would circulate better in the black market, prices would be controlled, and students would be smiling.

Of course, there was an ethical issue of whether it was okay to make priests steal, but Yi-Han judged that part was fine.

'This is self-defense. The gods will acknowledge it too.'

Everything is self-defense in Einroguard!

—

Priest Nigisor slightly set fires here and there to check, Priestess Siana poured acidic solution to check if the walls were real or fake (even though they had already checked with the light of truth, Yi-Han regretted bringing them because they were enthusiastically clinging to it, saying they would search)...

As a result of repeating the search like that, the one who caught the luck was Priestess Tijiling. Priestess Tijiling, who was checking beyond the wall with the cursed artifact she was wearing, immediately called the three.

"There's a path here!"

"We finally got one!"

Yi-Han, who was watching from behind in case Priest Nigisor and Priestess Siana caused an accident, ran over with a bright face.

Priest Nigisor was disappointed.

"Ah... I should have set fire there."

"Ugh. I didn't check because I was saving the potion."

"The water is fine... what are you doing!??!"

"Huh?"

Priestess Siana screamed in fright at the sight of Yi-Han entering the water with a splash.

"I'm going into the water..."

"Poison check!! You have to check for poison!! What are you doing!!"

"Ah. I checked by putting my hand in."

"..."

"..."

The three priests' eyes were filled with shock at the ignorant answer.

Realizing the strange atmosphere, Yi-Han quickly made an excuse.

"...I've become accustomed to such crude methods from hanging out with the White Tiger Tower guys. I should be more careful in the future."

"Ye, yeah."

In fact, the White Tiger Tower had nothing to do with it, and it was Yi-Han who went in thinking, 'Even if there's poison, it'll be fine,' relying only on his own mana, but there were no White Tiger Tower students present.

Yi-Han chanted the underwater breathing spell and immersed his body in the water.

Bubble bubble-

"Light!"

As a sphere of light filled with mana hung on the staff, light began to spread through the dark lake water.

Even with the dark vision magic, there were many limitations to seeing through the pitch-black water.

'Wait, there are no monsters?'

Yi-Han was surprised.

There were no monsters even though it was this wide.

And he was surprised again.

'I'm surprised there are no monsters...'

There might not be any!

He seemed to have adapted too much to Einroguard.

As Yi-Han came out of the water, Priest Nigisor immediately lit a fire. Although it wasn't cold weather, after immersing his body in the water, a chill was bound to come.

"I can cast ."

"No. Let's save mana. We don't know what might happen. I'll cast..."

"Wait!!"

"Please wait!"

"I'll just cast it!"

"..."

Yi-Han stopped his actions while grumbling.

It was the first time he was distrusted like this regarding magic.

"Since there are no monsters at the bottom of the lake, I think we can make a boat and go a little further."

"A, a boat...!"

"That's...!"

The faces of Priest Nigisor and Priestess Siana brightened.

Even if they pretended not to, an undisguisable expectation could be seen in their eyes.

"Shall we get some wood?"

"I saw some reeds near the lakeshore earlier, so if we weave those...!"

Yi-Han drew up the overflowing water from the lake and grasped its shape.

The water element was one of the elements he dealt with the most, so he could easily transform and fix its shape even with his eyes closed.

Then he cast the cold magic he had learned from Alcicle.

"Freeze!"

The power of the 1st circle cold generation magic was limited to freeze the water the size of a small boat.

In fact, only the edges of the boat were frozen.

However, Yi-Han cast the magic continuously without rest. In an instant, the cold was continuously overlapped, and a boat made of ice began to form.

Crack crack crack-

Yi-Han, who lightly checked the strength, nodded his head.

"This should do. Will everyone get on?"

"...Alright."

"Hmph."

"???"

Yi-Han was puzzled when the two priests became gloomy.

"Is it because it's an ice boat? Even though it looks like this, it's quite sturdy, so you don't have to worry about safety?"

"That's not the problem right now..."
