Chapter 465
Chapter 465
"There's less useful information than I thought."
"?"
At Yi-Han's words, Salko, who was next to him, made a puzzled expression.
The gist of what the tapir had just said was...
-Professor Kirmin Ku stored the nightmares eaten by the tapir in glass bottles to prepare for the illusion magic exam.-
-Professor Parsellet Krair mainly hides the student she takes to confuse their divination around Professor Kirmin Ku's workshop.-
...Wasn't this quite substantial?
"Wardanaz. I think this much is quite useful..."
Salko asked in a hesitant voice, different from his usual rough attitude.
It was because he was unconsciously intimidated by Yi-Han's madness.
Yi-Han rebuked Salko as if asking what he was talking about.
"Salko. Are you being deceived by the tapir's teary eyes? Are you really an Einroguard student?"
"..."
-...-
Not only the Black Tortoise Tower students but even the siren looked at Yi-Han, but Yi-Han didn't waver.
"If it stored its nightmares in glass bottles, it should tell us how to deal with them. What's the use of just saying it stored them? And anyone can guess that they're hidden around the workshop. It should also tell us how to get in."
Salko was not only amazed but also shuddered at Yi-Han's shamelessness.
How could a high noble family of the Empire have this level of shamelessness?
"Uh... Mr. Wardanaz. I have a question about the nightmares hidden by the tapir."
"Oh. Ratford. Did you think of a good method?"
Yi-Han asked with a brightened face.
The nightmares swallowed by the tapir were a powerful ability that was difficult to deal with easily.
Since he had tried to stop it earlier but failed, Yi-Han was thinking of coming up with a countermeasure even if he had to torment the tapir.
If they were nightmares it had swallowed, there must be a way.
"That... Mr. Wardanaz, you're not affected by nightmares anyway, so do you really need a countermeasure?"
"..."
—
Flap flap-
"?"
The students waiting at the fortress at the entrance of the library were puzzled by the paper bird that suddenly flew in.
"What is it? Did Wardanaz send it?"
"No. It came from the opposite direction."
'Shouldn't you first think about whether Wardanaz can send a paper bird from that distance...'

"..."
"..."
The faces of the students who read the letter distorted.
What the hell was going on?
"...I forgot that all the professors are bastards."
Jijel's sense of betrayal was particularly great.
She had suspected the skull principal, but it turned out that another professor was the culprit.
"Wait. Then why did the tapir barge in earlier?"
"Isn't it because we occupied this place and made it angry?"
"Nah. Would it be for such a reason? What's so bad about borrowing this place for a bit?"
Jijel wanted to tell the White Tiger Tower student, 'That's enough reason for a monster to get angry,' but there were many things she had to do first.
"You two. Go to the pursuit team and tell them to come back quickly."
"Uh... Moradi. Wouldn't Wardanaz have figured it out on his own?"
The White Tiger Tower students made excuses as if they were reluctant to break through the fortress with just the two of them.
Then the Blue Dragon Tower students jeered.
"Is that something you should say?! No matter how much it's Wardanaz, how would he figure that out?!"
"Would you have done that even if it was a friend from the same tower?! The food Wardanaz fed you is wasted on you!"
"Coward! Boo! Spit out what you ate!"
At Gainando's last jeer, the White Tiger Tower students' faces turned red.
"We'll go, we'll go!"
"Boo! Boo!"
"...I'm definitely not going out until that guy shuts up. Make him shut up!"
The Blue Dragon Tower students stopped Gainando's jeering.
And just as the White Tiger Tower students were about to leave while grumbling, the pursuit team returned from afar.
"!!"
"They're back!"
"Huh? Yeah. But I thought everyone would need my help..."
The divination magic major students grabbed Gainando's arms and dragged him back.
Yi-Han ignored it and continued.
"Bring a map. Let's divide the areas. Asan. You're from this tall elm tree to the brick wall. You're..."
-A letter has arrived!-
When a death knight appeared at the entrance of the library and shouted, the students were startled.
-Why are you all like that?-
"Ah... it's nothing."
"A friend disappeared."
The students slightly changed the subject in front of the principal's subordinate, as it was awkward to answer, 'A kidnapping incident occurred, and we were suspecting the skull principal the most, so we were startled for no reason.'
-The master kidnapped them! I know nothing!-
"...Ah, no. It wasn't the principal, but another professor who kidnapped them."
-Oh. Is that so?-
The death knight was embarrassed.
-I thought the master had kidnapped them again.-
"..."
"..."
-Anyway, here's the letter.-
When the death knight handed over the letter, Yi-Han absentmindedly received it.
At that moment, the letter burned black, and a strong wave struck Yi-Han.
"?"
“Today's lesson is not to easily open suspicious letters!”
The skull principal's cheerful voice echoed in the air.
“You'll keep laughing, but think of it as the price of the lesson. It will disappear in about an hour.”
"..."
More terrifying than the letter with a forced laughter curse was the awkward situation where the recorded voice flowed out even though the curse didn't work.
The students were looking at each other, not knowing how to react, and the death knight had its head bowed deeply, feeling embarrassed on its own.
"Well... maybe... he forgot because the probability of me receiving it was low."
-Please keep it a secret from the master.-
“I'll make the exam simple tomorrow morning. You've all worked hard, so shall we go on a picnic?”
"?"
"???"
"?????"
The students were startled by the unexpected words.
What...
"A, a picnic?"
"Isn't that good?"
"Hey. Look at the weather outside..."
"St, still, it seems better than an exam."
The students were confused between 'A picnic in this damn weather?' and 'Is this still fortunate to this extent?', unable to grasp the situation.
“Ah. Picnic preparation is also included in the score. Pack your lunch boxes well. It's absolutely forbidden for others to pack them for you. Wardanaz. Are you listening?”
The students' gazes focused on Yi-Han. Yi-Han felt slightly wronged.
“Then prepare well and see you tomorrow!”
The voice faded away.
"Where is the picnic location?"
-I don't know. Won't you be guided tomorrow?-
"..."
"..."
-I really don't know! Believe me!-
The death knight appealed with sincerity at the students' sharp gazes.
—
"Flip it now. No. Flip it gently. Don't you know the meaning of gently? Lower the heat. Lower the heat. Lower the heat!"
Gainando shook the frying pan, inwardly crying that from now on, he would cherish every bite when eating pancakes.
Who knew there was such a huge struggle behind the food he ate without much thought...
"I need to prepare for the divination magic exam, but this is taking too much time."
Yi-Han clicked his tongue, looking at the students gathered in front of the temporarily built stove.
There were still remaining exams, but he had to have his time taken like this.
"Isn't it a bit underhanded?"
-Uh... um... isn't student Wardanaz taking too many?-
The death knight answered absentmindedly and then covered its own mouth.
What grudge was it trying to hold against the future great mage by talking back like this...!
