Episode 695
“This way!”
After passing through the door, he stopped Lee Han, who was trying to run up the stairs, and stopped under the copper picture fra.
Then he stamped his feet three tis and rolled over once.
“…What are you doing?”
“We are creating a shortcut!”
Coo thump!
A staircase suddenly appeared under the picture fra.
“This is a path that only a few people in the Blue Dragon Tower know about, so don’t tell anyone!”
“I’ll keep that in mind. But how did you find this path? “Maybe with illusion magic?”
The stairs we just ca out of were so completely hidden that even Lee Han could not sense the magic.
But do you know this path?
Lee Han wondered if the seniors of the fantasy magic school had other tricks for finding secret paths.
“no. “Once upon a ti, I was walking around at night and I was so startled by the professor that I fell asleep and realized it.”
“I see…”
“…There are also paths found through illusion magic, so don’t be so disappointed.”
“I wasn’t disappointed. haha.”
* * *
Ratford stopped at the sound of footsteps coming from afar.
Death Knights wearing heavy armor made a unique heavy noise when moving around.
However, the sound of footsteps approaching now was not that of Death Knights.
This is…
“Professor Kyo is coming!”
“Which professor?!”
Yoner asked back with a nervous expression.
It was fortunate that it was a professor who could communicate well or sympathize with students like Professor Garcia.
Even if you get caught, there will be room for compromise.
But if it’s a professor who isn’t…
“Professor Burdus…!”
“……”
Yoner bit his lip at the appearance of an unpredictable and difficult opponent.
Isn’t this a monster from Einroguard, impossible to persuade, compromise, or threaten?
Even the principal can’t communicate, so can Yoner, a student, solve the problem with words?
“You will arrive soon. What should I do?”
“I will deal with you. “Give a signal when you get to the front.”
Yoner stood near the warehouse entrance.
And then waited calmly.
Three, two, one…
“Ahh! My luggage is collapsing! To put this back together, I need help from wizards! “Bring the wizards!”
Suddenly,
the sound of footsteps outside stopped.
Then I started to hear noises running quickly in the opposite direction.
“……”
“…Phew. “I lived.”
“Yo Yoner, you are a genius…!”
Ratford was impressed.
Who would have guessed Professor Verdus’ selfish heart and sent him back like this!
“Lucky… lucky. “I often told Lee Han about Professor Verdus.”
“What did you talk about?”
“He’s crazy.”
‘It doesn’t really have anything to do with the current situation, does it…?’
Ratford thought to himself.
“Fortunately, the. “Sohow the professor disappeared.”
“Yeah, right…”
Knock –
the warehouse door opened with a knocking sound.
Then a professor appeared.
An older human female professor wearing a monocle over one eye.
It was Professor Millay, in charge of the Summoning Magic School.
‘ruined.’
Yoner closed his eyes tightly.
I might have been able to fool Professor Verdus. Because most people were indifferent unless it was sothing they were interested in.
However, the strict Professor Millais was not one to notice the discrepancy between the number of workers and their luggage.
“Professor Verdus said he needed help, so I ca…”
Professor Millais looked around.
Ratford held back his trembling voice and spoke.
“We cleaned it up ourselves.”
“You an in the anti?”
‘Oops.’
The two realized their mistake late.
I should have ssed around a bit more.
Insufficient number of workers and burden. A lie that feels uncomfortable.
Cold sweat ran down my back.
“yes.”
“Hmm.”
Professor Millais looked around the warehouse and glanced at the two.
The two felt even more nervous as their gaze seed to penetrate them.
After thinking for a while, Professor Millais sighed lightly and opened his mouth.
“Please clean up quietly and leave.”
After saying that, the professor turned around and left.
The two, who thought it was definitely the end, were revived and looked at each other in surprise.
“What was in your room just now?”
“ too… I don’t know.”
“Isn’t it a trap? When Wodanaz cos back, I plan to catch him together…”
“…I don’t think so.”
Yoner was slightly impressed by Ratford’s idea.
As expected from a thieves guild mber, the skill of the idea was on a different level.
* * *
“Oh, it’s beautiful…”
“You an the box?”
“Isn’t your emotion too dry?”
Ulde grumbled at the words of his junior next to him who was making fun of him.
Any student who has ever attended Einrogard would sympathize.
The box in front of you is more beautiful than any beautiful poem or famous painting!
For no reason, my eyes beca sore and I felt like tears were coming up.
“If you’ve finished stacking everything, let’s go. “I don’t have much ti.”
“…okay. “It’s not over yet.”
I finally made up my mind.
My junior showed such a brave side, but as a senior, I couldn’t just show up in an ugly manner.
The work is still only half done.
It was a true success when I finished the other half.
“let’s go. If you succeed, you, my junior, will remain as one of the legends of Einroguard. “I’m sure you’ve never done anything on such a large scale, right?”
“I did go out of school with my friends last year.”
“friends’? I guess I took a lot of people with . Three people? “Four people?”
“Almost the entire grade…”
“…don’t be kidding.”
“It’s not a joke.”
“That sounds impossible!”
At so point, I forgot about the situation and tried to argue, but then stopped.
As I was about to leave through the exit under the copper picture fra, the atmosphere was unusual.
“Light, shine ahead.”
With the incantation of a small voice, the scenery beyond the closed exit began to be captured.
Currently, Death Knights were located on the first floor of the main building.
“……”
“……”
The two widened their eyes, shocked at the sudden change in the situation in that short period of ti.
-Do we really have to participate in that inspection?
-exactly. It’s my master’s order.
-Who do you think didn’t receive the master’s orders? Patrolling the desert area is also an order from the master. What if there is a loophole during the inspection?
-The swamp area I’m in charge of is full of all kinds of annoying bugs if you take your eyes off it for just a few hours. There are so many articles, isn’t it okay for to just write one?
-There are no exceptions for anyone! Wait until everyone gathers. Once the inspection is over, you may leave for your respective duties.
-shit. Who are these people who haven’t arrived yet?
-Isn’t this Lord Klzenberg? He gets lost so often.
-That little guy again?
-Be careful what you say, kid! If Lord Klzenberg had been alive, a brat like you wouldn’t have been able to say a word!
-That’s right! Lord Klzenberg is lost because of a curse he received during his lifeti.
-Don’t talk nonsense! I was given a new body, but why does the curse remain? Just get lost!
The Death Knights began to make a fuss and argue without anyone else doing anything.
It seed like they wouldn’t leave until everyone was gathered together.
Lee Han checked the ti with a nervous expression. Now it was getting really dangerous.
‘If there is any further delay here, the return itself may fail. Should I force a breakthrough? Even if I used invisibility magic, the door itself was blocked due to the large number of people, so I could sohow attract attention…’
While Lee Han was thinking, Ulde, who was staring at him, tapped him and called out.
“hey. Junior.”
“yes?”
“Is there a way?”
“Please wait a mont. “I’ll think about it.”
“done. “Let teach you one last lesson.”
“?”
Lee Han paused at the unexpected words.
Ulde continued speaking in a serious voice.
“You are a great guy. Although Einrogard is a place where the empire’s geniuses gather, sotis a special genius like you erges. Like senior Yukveltire.”
“Why is he…” Lee
Han inadvertently retorted to the unconvincing example.
“When I first saw you, I wondered what this guy was doing. “Everything he said or did was strange and he was so pretentious that I wondered what kind of braggart he could be.”
“I don’t think it was to that extent.”
“But the one who didn’t recognize was . I’ve never seen a guy like you in my grade. The sa goes for the grades above .”
Ulde’s attitude was solemn.
At first, I approached it thinking it was just bait to use in a smuggling operation, but that thought has long since changed.
The junior in front of had the ability to lead Einrogard’s big things.
“Originally, I don’t know what else to teach a guy like you, but I guess I have one thing to teach you today. “Sotis you have to know how to let go of your friends, juniors, or seniors.”
With those last words, Ulde pushed Lee Han back, opened the exit door under the picture fra, and ran out.
“?!”
Then he ran in front of the Death Knights while chanting a spell.
“Horrible mories, co to mind!”
With a gloomy sound, the illusion of the skeletal headmaster floated up.
The magical illusion struck the souls of the surrounding Death Knights and caused them to fall into hallucinations.
Your way of doing things disappoints !
-I’m sorry, master… you bastard. What kind of guy are you?
-What kind of insolent bastard are you?!
But that was it.
Against a high-ranking undead of the level of a Death Knight, illusion magic prepared on the spot like this cannot be effective for more than 1 second.
The Death Knights, who suddenly ca out of their hallucinations, frowned when they saw the illusion of a skeleton headmaster floating in the air.
“grow!”
-…Oh no. How did you get in first?
-Aren’t you a crazy student? Why don’t you co in first?
-Shouldn’t they be sent to a healing room rather than a punishnt room?
“I am sane, you minions! “I ca in early to save the principal’s face!”
-You’re crazy!
-Luckily, I am completely sane.
-student. Please follow . We will guide you to the punishnt room.
“joy.”
Erde snorted.
The Death Knights felt ominous from that smile.
Even if Einrogard’s delinquent students were caught, they were rarely caught well.
-student. Don’t make nonsense.
“It is a foolish trick for the principal to do! Co out, illusion eroder!”
With the spell, huge carnivorous plants began to appear around Ulde.
The Death Knights who realized its identity were astonished.
-no! Don’t do that!
The Phantom Corrosor was a terrible two-dinsional plant that destroyed its surroundings and made it its own by spitting out a corrosive liquid mixed with reality and fantasy.
It was clear that if this was left as is, the first floor of the main building would beco a ss.
“If you want to catch it, catch it, minions!”
-catch!
The Death Knights gritted their teeth and rushed at Ulde.
From what I saw, it seed like he had a very real grudge against the principal. If we didn’t catch it quickly, the ss could have grown several tis larger.
Even though he was quickly subdued, he motioned in the direction where Lee Han was.
That gesture had only one aning.
“…!”
Lee Han closed his eyes tightly, went out through the exit under the picture fra, and headed toward the back of the first floor.
The Death Knights were all busy cleaning up after the Phantom Corruptor, so they didn’t notice Lee Han.
‘…Thank you, senior.’
While listening to the shouts and struggles of the Death Knights from afar, Lee Han made his decision.
I will definitely succeed in this smuggling and repay the favor!
