When he got over it safely, a thought popped into Lee Hanâs head.
âI live a good life, so luck follows me.â
And another thought followed.
âIf I get another chance later, can I step on it?â
Lee Han shook his head.
Arrogance invites danger.
No matter how much fun it was, it was dangerous to step on the professorâs foot twice.
âprofessor. As guests from outside, I will treat them.â
âDo you want to?â
âyes.â
Lee Han said strongly. Professor Boladi didnât bother.
It was because there was not much interest in the guests from outside.
âIt must have been exciting because of the festival.â
Professor Voladi thought Lee Han must have been excited about the festival.
Otherwise, why would they treat guests from places like Waldrogard that way?
âIt is an honor to meet you.â
At Lee Hanâs polite greeting, the professor at Baldrogard unknowingly admired it.
The nobility of the empire used to prove their lineage even in the smallest details.
The nobles can notice each other in the brief appearances they show every moment, such as accents, habits, and behaviors.
It was for this reason that the emerging lower aristocratic families, who had amassed wealth, were sometimes ridiculed for trying to act like the great aristocratic families of the empire.
It was possible to build a splendid mansion and wealth, but not to build up the time and customs of the family.
And the image of the boy in front of him was something that only a noble family could show.
Even the Baldrogard students, who used to grumble, kept their mouths shut.
âWhich family are you from?â
âI am from the Wardanaz family.â
âWardanaz! I see⦠You deserve to be admitted to Ein Lorgard.â
The other professor said with the meaning of praise. But it didnât sound like much of a compliment to Lee Han.
âItâs definitely a compliment that I deserve to be admitted to Ein Lorgard, but I donât know why it sounds gloomy.â
Lee Han turned the topic.
âIâve heard a lot about Baldrogardâs reputation here, too.â
At those words, the faces of the students brightened slightly.
More than anyone elseâs compliments, the compliments from Einrogard students in front of him couldnât help but feel the sweetest.
Of course, Lee Han had never heard of Valdrogardâs reputation at school.
Who would be leisurely talking about Baldrogard when he is busy eating and living and doing his homework?
âis that so? I am very happy.â
However, it was clear that Lee Hanâs white lie made the other person happy.
Everyone from Valdrogard seemed happy.
Looking at the happy students, Lee Han suddenly had a question.
âBut how can Valdrogard students visit other peopleâs school festivals?â
Baldrogard.
All Lee Han knew was that it was located in the western part of the empire and only people from aristocratic families could enter.
But isnât that a magic school anyway?
It was clear that the Valdrogard students were also suffering and struggling in the suffocating school.
But how?
âBut how⦠did you come to the festival?â
â?â
The other professor did not immediately understand Lee Hanâs words.
âWhat do you mean?â
âSo⦠students canât go outside for now.â
â??â
The professor at Baldrogard looked at Lee Han as if he was talking about something.
âAh, you mean you canât go outside in the middle of a lectureâ¦? Or at night?â
â⦠after the lecture⦠in the spare time⦠canât you go out of school?â
Even as Lee Han asked the question, he felt an eerie fear come over him.
no way.
no way??
âItâs a joke too!â
The professor burst into laughter. Ianâs face hardened.
âIsnât it?â
âNo! You canât let me go out of school in my free time. Why would you do that?â
âOhâ¦â
Without knowing Lee Hanâs intentions, Professor Baldrogard kindly continued his explanation.
Waldrogard was located not far from the big city, and after class, students used to ride horses to the big city and enjoy various leisure activities.
Sometimes energetic students would get drunk in the evening and cause problems, but that is something that canât be helped if they are young.
For aristocrats, such social activities were also an important virtue.
âImperial nobles are really unlucky like crazy.â
Lee Han thought to himself.
Those unlucky bastards!
âThen this trip⦠did you just come without any problems?â
âyes. If students apply to gain experience while touring the empire, they will pass.â
âBut isnât there such a rule that no one can come up with?â
Lee Han asked persistently without realizing it.
If I didnât do that, it would be too unfair.
âah. There are.â
âalsoâ¦! Are you saying that only those who have made great achievements in school can go out?â
âThat is too harsh. Any student who causes more than four disturbances in the city in one month will be banned for one week.â
ââ¦â¦â
Han Lee seemed to know why Professor Voladi treated Valdrogard as trash.
Arenât the minds of nobles rotting because of such lax rules?
âLetâs calm down.â
Lee Han made up his mind.
I was envious of the Waldrogard students, but what would change now?
The important thing was to be visible to guests from outside.
I had to manage personal connections from the beginning. Because I didnât know when or where I would use it.
The job he found after graduation could have a wizard from Valdrogard as his superior.
âWhat grade are all of you here?â
âItâs the 2nd and 3rd year.â
ââ¦Iâm afraid itâs okay for 2nd and 3rd year students to go togetherâ¦? Ah, is it because itâs okay to not be together in first grade?â
âWhat are you talking aboutâ¦? 1st graders can stay together. The first graders decided to travel to different places, so the direction changed.â
â!â
Lee Han was shocked once again.
Surprisingly, Waldrogard did not separate the first year!
ââ¦I guess so.â
Come to think of it, going out of the city is possible, but there was no reason to separate the first graders.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhy do you ask such a questionâ¦? By any chance, does Einrogard isolate the first year students separately?â
âyes.â
Lee Han answered honestly, but the guests from Valdrogard did not believe him.
Instead, I burst into laughter and admired Lee Hanâs joke.
âA joke like thatâ¦!â
âAhahahaha!â
âIf you separate the first year, you wonât be able to do anything social, party, or club activities!â
Lee Han looked up at the sky with melancholy eyes.
âI hope they turn it off quickly.â
I thought it was not difficult to make a good impression on customers from outside, but it was harder than I thought.
* * *
Even though the conversation was over, the Waldrogard students did not leave.
Instead, he showed excessive curiosity in hanging on the tent.
âWhat is that?â
âThis is an event being held during the festival.â
The Waldrogard students were polite but very eager to participate.
Of course, Lee Han didnât want to throw water beads at the faces of the Waldrogard students.
The White Tiger Tower students jumped at me even if I warned them, so they couldnât help it.
âCan we join too?â
âItâs okay, but the prize is an outing ticket. Our school pass will be useless.â
âitâs okay! The prize that is more precious than that is honor.â
âThese scumbags.â
Lee Han was furious.
The Valdrogard students said they could go out if they were bored, but to the Einrogard students, that ticket to go out was almost as valuable as their lives.
Those who donât even know that are just looking for the right to go out for their honor.
Are the nobles of the empire without a conscience?
ââ¦All right. Please participate.â
â!â
When Lee Hanâs permission was granted, the Valdrogard students raised their hands without saying who was the first.
I must prove that I am superior to the students of Einrogard!
âPlease let me go first.â
âIn terms of my magic skills, I have to go first. Arenât they the best at defensive magic?â
âYou donât even have to go to defense magic. I will solve it with my foreknowledge magic.â
âWith body strengthening magicâ¦â
Seeing the students arguing, Lee Han raised his staff. And exchanged glances with Professor Voladi.
Professor Voladi nodded. Lee Han also nodded.
The two priests knew what to do without speaking to each other.
* * *
Baldrogard?
The skeleton headmaster, who had been floating and flying, was puzzled as he saw the students from other schools leaving their seats dripping with nosebleeds.
Did the Valdrogard students come?
âyes. It seems that he heard about the festival during his trip and visited it.â
Tsk tsk⦠Travel leisurely. So you canât do magic.
ââ¦â¦â
Who did you hit?
âwell. Itâs only natural to get injured when testing magicâ¦â
The skeleton headmaster strengthened his hearing.
â Everyone, donât get too frustrated. Because the opponent was a high school student who had trained magic longer than you guys.
-But itâs one-sided like thisâ¦
-Professor. Was your opponent in 4th or 5th grade?
-ruler. It doesnât matter. Iâll treat you, so when the bleeding stops, letâs look elsewhere.
?
Skeleton Principal did not understand for a moment.
What kind of 45th grader with a swollen liver ignored the skeleton headmasterâs order and set his head at the freshmenâs festival?
âIt canât be?â
Guys in the 45th grade or so have a rough idea of what goes back to school.
There was no way he would let such a thing go unnoticed. Headmaster Skeleton quickly traced the nosebleeds from the Valdrogard students.
â¦aha!
Headmaster Skeleton understood everything when he saw Professor Voladi and Lee Han standing there.
no wonder!
Good job. You raised the honor of Ein Rogard.
Seeing the flying headmaster, Lee Han lowered his head.
âno. Itâs just embarrassing that I hurt my opponent because I couldnât control my strength.â
no. Itâs unavoidable.
Lee Han was puzzled when the skeleton headmaster gave him comfort for some reason.
Since the Valdrogards are scum who play house with money from stupid nobles, it couldnât be helped that it took a little effort.
Surprisingly, Professor Voladi was on the whole side.
Lee Han answered the headmasterâs verbal abuse without changing his expression.
âno. The Waldrogards were also good enough.â
Itâs not persuasive at all for a fan to say that, like twisting a childâs wrist in high school! You should show more arrogance.
ââ¦â¦â
Despite the impulsiveness of the Headmaster Skeleton, Lee Han did not waver and remained calm.
Originally, even in old stories, when the devil whispers something like that, if you go over it, your life will be twisted.
When Lee Han didnât respond, the skeleton headmaster put on a look of insignificance.
Itâs not fun⦠Anyway, letâs go.
âWhere are you talking?â
Professor Bagreg. Is time up?
Professor Voladi nodded at the headmasterâs question.
I made an agreement with the skeleton principal to share Yihan, and I just ran out of time.
âItâs done.â
Professor Voladi put away the letters and closed the tent door.
Lee Han, realizing the situation belatedly, looked at Professor Voladi with shocked eyes.
â?â
Unfortunately, Professor Voladi couldnât understand Lee Hanâs eyes. Lee Han thought to himself.
âI should have stepped on my foot one more time earlier.â
* * *
Do you know why I have to do this?
Lee Han answered politely as he followed the skeleton headmaster.
âBecause the principal is a benevolent educator who cares about the students.â
â¦Donât be gross and creepy. because the emperor ordered
âah.â
Lee Han realized it belatedly.
I thought it was the principalâs hobby, but now that I think about it, it was too much fun for the freshmen to be the principalâs hobby.
Of course, Lee Han wasnât happy at all even though he was a freshmanâ¦
âWhat can I help you with?â
This and that. Letâs start by making magic firecrackers.
âIsnât it usually used at the start of a festival?â
Lee Han wondered if the skeleton headmaster had such a sense, but he wondered if he was a little late.
Are you going to write at the end?
Iâm going to shoot the students.
ââ¦â¦â
