If you had shown hesitation or tiredness while solving episode 295, people would have said, ‘Let’s do it this far’, but those freshn were so good, everyone was so excited and encouraged
.
Thanks to that, only Doin felt like dying.
Gradually, the mana is also showing the floor…
“We are ready.”
Lee Han’s words sounded scary now.
Do-in wiped the sweat from his forehead and sent a desperate gaze to Lee Han.
‘what?’
There was no way Lee Han could not notice that gaze. Lee Han was lost in thought.
Why is the opposing mage doing that?
“Sir Doin. Are you feeling unwell? You’re breaking out in a cold sweat…”
“Oh no. are you okay. are you okay.”
The swordsman held on to his staff and held back a sigh.
I couldn’t even think of what tests to take.
‘What… magic…’
Plop!
The staggering Taoist finally sat down. It was dizziness caused by exhaustion of mana.
“Are you okay?!”
Lee Han ca running right away.
The reaction was quick as I had been thinking that I was sick from a while ago. Lee Han said while supporting the Taoist.
“You seem to be sick, but why didn’t you tell in advance?”
“Ugh…”
Do-in almost said, ‘Isn’t it because you did so well without notice?’
But I couldn’t. The opponent is the Wodanaz family, isn’t it the Dalcard family?
“Oops. Even though Doin-kyung is not in good shape, he seems to be overdoing it.”
“I’m sorry, but I had no choice. I really enjoyed today.”
The guests greeted with concern and stood up warmly.
So guests ca to Lee Han’s party separately and praised them.
“It was great. There will soon be rumors that an archmage has erged from the Dalcard family.”
“Oh no. thank you.”
“The reputation of the Wardanaz family is unquestionable. I was truly moved.”
“thank you.”
“If you have any thoughts after graduation, personally donate…”
Among them, there were people who offered personal sponsorship to Ratford.
Seeing this, Lee Han felt a bit embarrassed.
‘No, why only for Ratford?’
Of course I understood.
Such support was now given by the rich with wealth to the talented but poor.
Rich people and nobles could give debts or favors in advance to talented people who could later beco outstanding wizards, and instead, the wizard could receive gold coins right away, so it was good for each other.
However, if I proposed this to a son from a noble family, it beca a rude argunt saying, ‘Your family doesn’t have any money?’
It was really unfortunate.
“It’s okay.”
“You don’t have to decide now. If you change your mind later, please co back.”
Ratford nodded, puzzled.
anwhile, an old man approached Lee Han. Lee Han could imdiately recognize that the other person was not an ordinary person.
‘Two rings. one necklace. one bracelet. They’re all artifacts.’
A person like Lee Han who could keenly capture the flow of magical power was able to grasp this just by his appearance.
People who carried artifacts of that level were rare even among the wealthy in the empire.
“Did you recognize the artifact?”
The other party was interested and asked.
“yes. I apologize if I felt rude.”
“it’s okay. Wouldn’t it be natural to find out if you have the ability? I am Aldne of the Greenbell family.”
“This is Lee Han of the Wardanaz family.”
Aldne, the spider beast, had the impression of a kind old woman, but there were no superfluities in each movent, and her posture was unwaveringly upright.
“Sir Doin isn’t such a bad wizard, but what happened today surprised .”
“I was just lucky.”
“I’m not a wizard… but there’s no word more unsuited to magic than luck. There is only skill. It was surprising that he could dispel Lord Doin’s magic so easily, but… to consu all of his mana.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised.
‘Oops. Right.’
Co to think of it, the doin’s condition was a bit strange.
If he hadn’t been that bad, wouldn’t the signs have been revealed from the beginning?
I naturally thought of it on my own terms, so I didn’t think that the opponent’s magician might run out of magic.
‘I’m sorry.’
However, it seed that Aldne interpreted Lee Han’s surprise in a different way.
“No surprise. It’s not sothing I said to rebuke you. A good wizard must have strong self-esteem. Especially if it’s an opponent who dared to test his skills. Do-in should thank you for finishing it so gracefully.”
“…No, that’s…”
Lee Han wanted to explain that it was a misunderstanding, but Aldne had already convinced himself.
No matter how entertaining the eting was, he couldn’t forgive a wizard who challenged him with poor skills.
It was trampled on by the pride of the Wardanaz family!
“Not really.”
“If you say so, I will do it. I was surprised anyway. It’s not new that magicians from Einrogard are outstanding, but it’s the first ti I’ve seen a first year student excel like this. Even if it’s the Wodanaj family.”
“thank you.”
“Since we are students, we will stay in Granden City during vacation. If you ever need help, you can always visit the Greenbell family. The doors of the mansion are always open to those of ability.”
“!”
Lee Han was surprised again.
It seed that he understood the surprise and thought of it in a different way.
“Shall we try to match? Perhaps you are thinking of sothing you need help with right now?”
“No… it’s not.”
“Sotis there are things that are difficult to solve even with the power of the great noble family, or are reluctant to solve in the na of the great noble family. There are definitely tis like that. Then…”
After bowing Aldneh, he withdrew from his seat.
Asan, who ca back after being praised by his brother and sister, said in an excited voice.
“Wardanaz! did you hear I got a complint! I got a complint!”
“Asan… I don’t think there is a need to attach too much aning to a single complint.”
Lee Han looked at his friend pitifully.
It would be comfortable if I just ignored it, but why did I do that?
“okay. What complint did you hear?”
Lee Han asked a question out of etiquette because his friend liked him that much.
Asan said with a flushed face.
“He told that I did well, that I made a good friend, and that I should work hard so that I could follow that friend in the future.”
“?”
“??”
Lee Han and Ratford tilted their heads.
Ratford whispered softly so Asan couldn’t hear.
“Mrs. Wardanaz. I don’t know the nobles, but is that a complint among the nobles?”
“no. That’s not a complint. Ratford.”
Whether the two of them did it or not, Asan was happy. Lee Han said sadly.
“Asan. If you’re bored during vacation, co to the Wardanaz family mansion. no. Co hang out often, even if you’re not bored.”
“thanks?”
Asan tilted his head as if he felt sothing incongruent and replied that he knew.
“More than that, Wodanaz. You helped like this, but I can’t just let it go. Do you need anything? tell if there is I will repay you in the na of the Dalcard family.”
Lee Han, who was about to say it was okay, hesitated.
Co to think of it, there was one thing I needed.
“I needed sothing.”
“oh. what?”
“Pay back the silver coin I borrowed.”
“…Oh no. that’s normal What else?”
“I don’t have anything in mind.”
Asan was perplexed.
Isn’t it natural to pay back borrowed silver coins?
“Couldn’t you have co directly for that?”
“of course. I just ca to see a friend.”
“yes? Is that so…?”
Asan nodded his head to understand, but for so reason he was hesitant.
* * *
The ikin family’s mansion located in Granden City reminded of a busy and prosperous alchemist’s workshop rather than an antique aristocratic mansion.
Practical design without unnecessary decoration Workers and alchemists who co and go through the door of the mansion without rest The scent of various herbs and potions wafting from inside the mansion… “The sll of
herbs is amazing.”
“okay. Money slls great.”
“yes? It slls like herbs.”
“ah. sorry. I was thinking of sothing else.”
Lee Han apologized to Ratford.
With so many workers sending in materials and alchemists coming in and out, I could see why the ikin family was so wealthy.
Besides, this is not the main house, but a villa, isn’t it?
“I’ll have to get along with Yoner from now on.”
“Aren’t you still friends?”
Lee Han approached the front door of the mansion.
The gatekeepers at the front gate were so busy that they couldn’t even see Lee Han properly and shouted,
“Wait in line! Five wagons are now inside! No matter how hard you try to push in, you have to wait!”
“hmm. In fact, we…”
“No! No matter which guild or workshop, you have to wait in line! These are the rules! If you don’t follow the rules, what will happen to the people waiting here!”
“It certainly is.”
Lee Han was persuaded by the gatekeeper.
Wagons and workers waiting for a long ti in front of the front gate.
They were waiting for them to co from various places, including the guild workshop.
Of course, Lee Han didn’t co for work, he ca to see a friend, but that wasn’t a reason to cut in line.
“Let’s go and wait.”
“Uh… I think we can just go through separately…”
“Ratford. What will the people waiting behind you think? It could cause harm to the Yoner family, so let’s wait.”
Ratford tilted his head and followed Lee Han.
Is it really like this to visit an aristocratic mansion?
‘I don’t think so…’
“What are you two here for?”
The alchemist who was standing first spoke to the two.
The sight of him hanging all sorts of potions and reagents from his long robe was more telling about himself than writing < I am an alchemist >.
“I ca to see the Maykin family.”
“I guess so. I am also waiting for that.”
The alchemist smiled friendly when he found a colleague with the sa purpose.
According to the alchemist who stood first, there were two types of people who ca to the ikin family mansion.
One is those who officially signed a contract with the ikin family and ca to deliver the promised goods.
And the other is those who are in the eyes of the ikin family and want to receive sponsorship or contracts.
The Maykin family was a staunch supporter. Whether it was a guild or a workshop, if they caught one’s eye, they could work with unconventional gold coins.
That’s why so many people are waiting with the herbs, reagents, or homade alchemy potions they have gathered.
“indeed.”
“But you two… do you need to wait here?”
The alchemist was puzzled by the costus of Lee Han and Ratford.
After living in a city for a long ti, you can guess a person’s status just by looking at their clothes.
The two looked like they ca from aristocratic families.
“If you’re sorry, you’ll have to wait.”
“You are right. You said sothing useless.”
The alchemist nodded.
Even if you co from an aristocratic family, if you have regrets, you have to wait.
Of course, it wasn’t that I didn’t mind thinking, ‘If you’re from an aristocratic family, you can send a servant to make an appointnt’, but I thought there must be so circumstances and passed it on.
The person who brought the suspicious eggs in the cage in front of them entered, followed by the employee of the upper tier who had obtained reagents from the snowy mountain, and finally the turn ca.
“Co this way! Co this way! For what purpose have you co!”
“We are alchemists. I’m here to evaluate the potion you made.”
“All right! Please go to the West Building! Three new alchemists in the West Building! Three alchemists!”
