Lee Han answered seriously as if he really didnât know.
âWardanaz!â
âYou said you didnât know.â
âThatâs not it, Iâm asking for instructions! What should I do!â
Rapadel exclaimed urgently.
Then, Gainando said as if it was absurd.
âYou come from a family of knights! You have to step up in a situation like this!â
âshut up! You son of a prince! Then why are you from the royal family and look like that!â
ânoâ¦!â
Gainando was speechless for a moment at the absurd force.
and was angry
âhey! What does it have to do with me being the prince! Do you think you are a knight? What kind of article is this!â
âIf you are a member of the royal family, just show off your abilities like a member of the royal family! Her Highness, the princess of the same tower, has followers in our tower too. What are you?â
âYouâre already showing off your abilities?! All of our towers know my ability?! Lee Han! You know my ability?!â
Gainando exploited the fact that the opponent did not know the situation at the Blue Dragon Tower, and acted ugly.
âLeehan??â
Yihan and Ymirg were retreating far away, leaving the two behind.
Gainando exclaimed in fright.
âLeehan!! You should just throw that guy away! Why me!!â
âRun fast. Seeing them fighting needlessly, I wondered if they had time to spare.â
Cainando and Rapadel scolded each other and ran hastily.
Seeing that, Ymirg whispered with a puzzled expression.
âI⦠I donât mean to say⦠is that okay???â
âare you okay. Originally, this is how we both come to our senses and get along better.â
ââ¦?!â
Ymirg wondered if that was nonsense, but Lee Hanâs face was too serious.
âWoah⦠What would Wardanaz be thinkingâ¦?â
âI think theyâll come to their senses once theyâre caught.â
* * *
Unfortunately, the two were never caught. He gasped and climbed up the hill.
âHey heck. is it okay here? Just going to the exit⦠hehehe.â
âThe distance is farther than I thought, so itâs dangerous to just go there. Letâs deal with it once and go.â
The undeadâs true strength lies in their boundless persistence.
Even when other monsters gave up the chase because of exhaustion, the undead could come endlessly.
I was at a more disadvantaged place if I was rushed and tried to escape, but was surrounded for nothing.
âIt doesnât look very sturdy here.â
Raphael looked around the temple ruins with an uneasy expression.
Even in another dimension, it was not an empty world without anything. There were junk and ruins that flowed from here and there.
In the undead realm, graves and graveyards are often seen on the verge of ruin.
Now, the four of them had arrived in front of the ruins of the crumbling temple ruins.
It would be better than dealing with the undead in a field with nothing, but the ruins of the temple ruins looked too weak.
âThis wall⦠will it collapse if you push it? If the undead pushâ¦â
âItâs not that weak, so donât worry. And I plan to reinforce it.â
âhow?â
Instead of answering, Lee Han swung his cane.
âGather, soil!â
Dirt has accumulated behind the walls of the ruins. Seeing that, Raphael hesitated.
âPiling up a mound of dirt behind the wall would help, but at least this muchâ¦â
âGather, dirt. Gather, soil. Gather, earthâ¦â
Lee Han piled up piles of earth inside the ruins without even a chance to breathe, reinforcing the walls so that they would not collapse.
Then, the ruins of the temple ruins, which looked pretty flimsy until just now, became a fairly decent improvised fortress.
It is an improvised fortress that is easy to hold out in the wide space inside as it is blocked on all sides by walls and soil.
Except for the temple entrance passage, it seemed that the enemy could not enter at all.
âdone.â
ââ¦â¦â
Raphael was shocked again.
I feel it every time I see it, but when it comes to magic, the ability that guy Wardanaz shows is reallyâ¦
I wonder if the guy who becomes the archmage is like that.
âCanât we block the entrance altogether?â
âItâs difficult to clean it up later, and if you block everything for no reason, the undead can enter a strange place. Itâs better to lure them in at the entrance and then deal with them one by one.â
âRight.â
âruler. Then lure him in.â
ââ¦what?â
âLure me from the entrance.â
Lee Han waved his staff.
I was thinking of waiting in the inner clearing and knocking down the enemy by blowing magic the moment I passed through the entrance passage.
For that to happen, Lee Han had to wait here.
Instead, we need someone to attract the enemies at the entrance, and the person who will take on this role isâ¦
âYouâre a knight. Are you thinking of making friends who canât handle swords properly?â
ââ¦â¦â
It wasnât wrong, but for some reason I was very upset.
Raphael cursed Lee Han inside and walked toward the entrance.
* * *
Kwajik!
âyes!â
Another undead passed through the entrance passage and stuck out its head before collapsing.
Raphael, who was aiming a wooden sword with a nervous expression, let out a sigh of relief.
It was running much better than I was worried about.
Looking outside, the number of the undead that came earlier had been reduced by about a quarter.
This seemed to be enough to handle.
ââ¦Lee Han. But didnât the professor do that the other day?â
Gainando, who had regained his composure, whispered to Lee Han.
Last time, Lee Hanâs mana must have flowed out and killed the other undeadâ¦
âGainan too. The undead are pushing in outside right now, but they seem to be idle. Will you lure me?â
âAh⦠no. no.â
Gainando hurriedly shut his mouth.
Lee Han thought to himself.
âIâm sure they wonât come more.â
Even if the undead flocked because of magic, it was a little uncomfortable that more of them appeared than last time.
It would be fortunate if it was a coincidence, but just in caseâ¦
âIf the guys who came nearby last time came more this timeâ¦â If
the undead who came nearby but didnât see Lee Han were waiting around and gathered again has changed
Doesnât it mean that more undead are twisted every time they come in?
If entering the spirit realm avoids the spirits and entering the undead realm and the undead attack, it was clear that summoning magic would become quite difficult in the future.
Lee Han vowed to bring Rapad El and Gainando with him in that case.
ââ¦I think I knocked them all down.â
Raphael said hesitantly.
I couldnât hear the sound of the undead anymore outside the aisle.
âIâll have to go out and check.â
âA bit of work haha⦠Ah. Thatâs what you meant to do.â
ââ¦â¦â
ââ¦..â
Lee Han and Gainando, who were about to leave, looked at Rapad El in pity.
Raphaelâs face turned red.
âI just heard wrong!â
âThatâs right.â
Lee Han and Gainando passed through the aisle and stuck their heads out.
The many undead from earlier disappeared and all that was left
â¦
Gainando was frightened and ran away behind Lee Han. There was still one undead left.
It must have arrived late because it was located in the back.
âDonât worry. One can easily handle itâ¦â
-â â â â !
I havenât attacked or suppressed anything yet, but the skeleton warrior who approached me fell down.
Lee Han and Gainando were at a loss for words.
âuh. If this is going to happen, couldnât we just wait without having to fight?â
âNonsense. The undead would never have succumbed so easily, because the more they unite, the more violent they become.â
Lee Han said firmly.
However, her voice was slightly trembling.
* * *
After defeating the undead group, the four found additional undead and succeeded in making a contract.
Back at the exit, Professor Millay was talking to some of the students in the classroom.
âhello. professor.â
âDid you enter the undead realm and then come out?â
âah. yes. Because of the assignment.â
âIâd rather not go in for a couple of days.â
Professor Millay said, slightly correcting the position of the monocle.
âThe flow of magical energy felt in another dimension is unstable. If you go in now, you might get hurtâ¦â
ââ¦Ouch! We got hit!â
Gainando shouted as if he knew.
âI was walking around, and dozens of undead attacked me in groups! Thatâs whyâ¦!â
â?â
Professor Millay listened and tilted his head as if something was wrong.
âIf the flow of magical power is unstable, the nature and behavior of the undead will change, and even though there is a safety device, dozens of them attacking in groups is completely differentâ¦â âI see
. The flow of magical power is truly amazing. Even if there is a safety device when entering from the front, you should get into the habit of checking once again before entering.â
Lee Han said firmly.
Even that wasnât enough, so I quickly changed the topic.
âprofessor. Could you check the undead we contracted with?â
âLetâs take a look.â
Professor Millay nodded, unaware of his studentâs evil intentions.
A summons contract, a pre-term assignment for summoning magic.
Students always wanted to find strong and cool summons and contract them, but the professorsâ evaluation standards were a little different.
Finding a powerful and rare summoned beast was possible after reaching the senior year.
The important thing now was how well you could handle summons.
Even if it was the same summoned beast, there were contracts with absolute loyalty and contracts with almost no control, so I had to be careful.
Of course, Professor Millay didnât expect first-year students to take control of summons with a complicated and thorough contract. That was unreasonable at the first grade level.
What the professor expected was a figure of maximum control, even if he could only sign a simple summary contract.
âTry to turn around.â
âround. turn around turn around hey. pleaseâ¦!â
After Gainando spoke about 10 times, the skeleton warrior quietly turned around slowly.
Professor Millay teased the quill as if he knew.
âWe were closer before, but it must be because itâs a bit difficult today.â
Guinando wrapped his arm around his shoulder as if to prove that he was friendly with the skeleton warrior.
The skeleton warrior pushed his arm away as if it were annoying.
âThis time, try expressing the number 4 with your fingers.â
âNumber 4⦠Number 4â¦â
Not only Gainando, but also Rapadeel and Ymirg were similar.
Although the contract was signed, the summons were more troublesome than the detailed instructions.
When it was Lee Hanâs turn, Professor Millay had to manage his expression to hide his anticipation.
As the student who achieved the best grades in the midterm exam, he was curious about how he would persuade the summons.
âTry to lie down.â
âGet down.â
Cheeky!
The skeleton warrior immediately prostrated himself.
Although the words that the undead are disciplined may sound awkward, there was no word more appropriate than that expression.
ââ¦the number 4 with your fingerâ¦â
âExpress the number 4.â
The skeleton warrior immediately folded four fingers.
Professor Millay was dumbfounded.
As a master of summoning magic, he naturally realized how Lee Han was controlling the undead.
So nowâ¦
âYouâre coercing the undead into obeying orders?â
As a result, it wasnât the wrong way, but it couldnât be helped that it was absurd.
It was a task given to me to learn how to handle it in case I meet powerful beings later and make a contract.
ââ¦well done. Thatâs perfect.â
It was absurd, but Professor Millay didnât say anything.
Because that was great too.
âYou worked hard. Gonadaltes.â
ââ¦â¦â
Professor Millay decided to pretend he didnât hear what he just said.
