For some reason, it seemed that the distance from Diret had grown farther away. Lee Han once again called his senior.
âSeniors?â
âI didnât know how to practice Bone Explosion Magicâ¦â
Warlocks who specialized in bone elements demonstrated their tenacious power in many-to-many battles.
Not only strengthening various undead, but also direct attack and defense.
Especially when it comes to Bone Explosion, now the enemy has become the first warlock to subdue.
Once properly exploded, the destructive power was truly enormous.
But where there are advantages, there are also disadvantages.
Bone Explosion Magic was difficult to use easily, even if it consumed huge amounts of mana.
If you cast it incorrectly at close range, the warlock could be knocked down, but if you try to cast it from a distance as much as possible, the difficulty increases exponentially.
As the distance increases, the magicianâs interference ability decreases.
The best way was to cause a bone explosion against summoned monsters from the undead world, but the summoned beasts didnât like this kind of self-destruction either.
However, this junior solved such limitations with ancient necromantic techniques and a huge amount of magical power.
The person himself protected himself with a water shield and relentlessly exploded the undead, which was difficult for even seasoned black magicians to follow.
â¦But do I have to go this far in the first grade???
âah. Professor Mortum told me to practice bone explosion.â
âUm⦠so I didnât ask you to practice bone blast⦠no.â
Direth was about to say, âPractice with bone explosions usually means to be careful in the workshop, not practice in real battles in dungeonsâ, but held back for the sake of his juniors.
âBone Explosion is the magic that causes the most accidents, and you use a combination of dark elements as well, so you have to be extra careful.â
âyes. I will always use at least one shield and spread the distance as far as possible so that only the summoned creatures self-destruct.â
The fear of Diretâs undead summons felt like a connection. Diret appeased the undead summoned beast.
-I donât intend to self-destruct like that, so donât worry.
âSo you want to combine it with a poison element?â
âyes.â
In fact, it was an unusual case to combine it with a rare and tricky dark element, but originally, it was common to combine bone elements with other elements.
The representative element among them is the poison element.
The power of the bone element combined with various poisons boasted bloody power.
âItâs a standard way. There may not be many poisons you can use right now, but thereâs nothing wrong with practicing beforehand.â
Derrett forgot what he had just thought and started talking about magic again naturally.
âThere are a few things to keep in mind if you want to use the poison element instead, but the power of the Bone Explosion magic needs to be reduced a lot⦠Reduce it once. no. need to cut it down more again! No, why canât you reduce the power? Thatâs the easiest one!â
* * *
Dereth, who wiped out the dungeon, the neck of Professor Verdus, with his juniors, returned to the Hall of Darkness.
After finishing the lecture first, Professor Mortum put together the parts for the flesh golem, and when Diret returned, he asked a question.
âCoke. You came back later than expected. Did something happen in the Vampire Weasel Dungeon?â
âah. no. I went to the wooden dungeon and practiced necromancy combined with the dark element.â
ââ¦?â
Professor Mortum thought for a while and then asked as if he didnât understand.
âCollock just told me to make a cursed doll, did I need to teach it so harshly? Did Wodanaz offend you?â
âyes? no! What⦠uh?â
Diret was startled and tried to deny it, but upon reflection it was certainly strange.
uhâ¦
huh??
âWhy did I do that??â
* * *
Gainando was excited as Lee Han seemed to be in a good mood for the first time in a long time.
Normally, with a tired face, he muttered, âI hope Einrogard and the professors hug each other and disappear into that lake,â which surprised Gainando, but today he was stirring the ladle of the pot with a bright face.
âIs something going on today?â
âah. Guinan Island. I succeeded in controlling several undead.â
ââ¦â¦â
Gainando frowned and looked at Lee Han.
Thatâs why I didnât know that I would like it that much.
âWouldnât it be so nice to control the undeadâ¦â
âGuinan too. Donât you know what it means for a warlock to be able to control multiple undead?â
Unlike other wizards who always had to bring a avant-garde to protect them, warlocks who were good at summoning the undead did not have any problems even going alone.
That means that even if you accept a request, you can travel alone without having to share rewards with other adventurers.
âEh⦠But itâs lonely.â
âCainan Island. Magic is inherently lonely.â
âAnd the professor said that if a warlock alone takes a group of undead with him, he will be reported.â
ââ¦â¦â
As Gainando stabbed the sore spot, Lee Han hesitated.
It was a very plausible suggestion.
âIâll have to go into the dungeon and summon it from outside.â
Even if I summoned the undead and took it with me inside Einrogard, there was a reaction like âYou must be a student of the black magic schoolâ, but when I went outside like that, âKyaaaaa! guard! Security!!â was highly likely to come out.
âThen would you like me to give you a piece of chocolate?â
âno. Donât fill your stomach with snacks before meals.â
Lee Han firmly refused. Gainando grumbled and went to the table and sat down.
Students were already gathered near the long wooden table in front of the Phoenix Tower.
Not only the priests of the Phoenix Tower, but also the friends of the Blue Dragon Tower, and a few students of the Black Turtle Tower and the White Tiger Tower�
âWhy are you here?â
Lee Han asked in bewilderment.
They said they ate together during the flood, but why?
âafter. Wodanaz.â
â?â
A student from the White Tiger Tower approached with a frown.
And in Lee Hanâs hand, he gave a rare piece of Gwangnyeonguk (å é墨) as a bribe.
âIâm counting on you.â
ââ¦Thatâs right.â
The White Tiger Tower students sat down with their eyes wide open. Lee Han was dumbfounded even as he put the bribe he had received into his pocket.
âWhat are they doing?â
âWardanaz. We wish you well.â
âno. You can eat in your tower. Todayâs meal is not particularly special.â
âIt doesnât taste goodâ¦â
ââ¦â
The voices of the Black Turtle Tower students were full of sincerity.
To the point where even the cold Lee Han was overwhelmed.
âThat⦠yes. sit down.â
What I said earlier was not empty. Dinner tonight was pretty simple.
Stew and butter toast with leftover vegetables and chicken roughly cooked, grilled bird meat skewers and rice balls caught by the priests were all⦠slurp
!
âhey. Someone go to the White Tiger Tower and report it.â
âIâll do it.â
The Blue Dragon Tower students were shocked to see the White Tiger Tower students eating as if possessed.
Whether or not Lee Han did, he focused on his meal. There was still a lot to do after dinner today.
âWardanaz. Wodanaz.â
âuh. Nilia.â
Lee Han turned his attention to Niliaâs calling.
Nilia, who had been eating skewers of bird meat until just now, was taking out the meat separately and eating it with a knife and fork.
âWhy donât you eat with your hands?â
âI donât know what you mean? Have I ever eaten like this before?â
Looking to the side, all the students in the Blue Dragon Tower were using knives and forks.
âJust by handâ¦â
âNow thatâs not important. Did you hear the rumor?â
âWhat rumors?â
âProfessor is preparing a portal. So that I can sign a contract with a summoned beast that is stronger than last time.â
â!â
It was a welcome rumor.
Even if only the most outstanding talents in the empire were gathered, there were many lacking students who were still in their first year.
The best way to fill the lack of such students was, of course, a summons.
âGood. If I can make a contract with a stronger undeadâ¦â
âHuh? No⦠It was about a spiritâ¦â
Nylea said hesitantly.
It was a rumor that Professor Millais was preparing to find a new spirit realm for the first year students who were listening to summoning magic, but had never heard of the undead realm.
âI heard you donât open the undead world?â
âI think only the spirits heard about it.â
Nilia glanced at Lee Han slightly.
âThey will open the undead world as well. You opened it last time.â
âThat⦠thatâs right! of course!â
Nilia agreed with Lee Hanâs words and prayed earnestly.
Please, I hope that Professor Millais prepared an undead system as well!
* * *
âRecently, I found a decent spirit realm that I can contact. After checking, it seems that even students can walk around safely.â
Professor Millay looked around at the students with an upright posture and said,
Lee Han raised his hand and asked.
âprofessor. I have a question.â
âWhat question is it?â
âIs there an undead systemâ¦?â
âThere are no undead this time.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Hanâs expression was despondent. Nilia, who was next to her, whispered restlessly.
âYou donât have to make a contract with the undead, right? You can even make a contract with a spirit!â
âYeah, well⦠I might find a treasure trove of gold piled up on the road and become the richest man in the empire.â
ââ¦â¦â
While Nilia was speechless, Professor Millay looked at Lee Han and said.
âStudent Lee Han. It is prejudice to hastily conclude that you cannot contract with spirits. Of course, spirits tend to avoid beings with a lot of magic in general, but there are also spirits with unique characteristics.â
Lee Han, slightly cheered up by the professorâs words, asked again.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThen, if I donât give up and continue searching the spirit realm, can I find a decent spirit?â
âSometimes giving up is an important thing. Lee Han student. You have to learn to give up even if you canât find it.â
ââ¦â¦â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han looked at Nilia again at Professor Millayâs honest truth. Nilia hastily put her head on the desk and pretended to be reading.
âThe spirits that can be found in the spirit realm are as followsâ¦â
* * *
Students who have finished preparing pass through the magic circle one by one to the spirit realm, and Lee Hanâs turn finally returns.
Nilia, who was behind, asked cautiously.
âShall we go in together?â
âitâs okay. If I go with you, I wonât even meet you.â
ââ¦â¦â
Nilia was actually worried about that, so she couldnât refute it right away.
âI was worried that you would accept the question!â
Looking at Nilia who couldnât control her expression, it was clear that she was worried, âWhat if I accept?â
âGo in first. See you later.â
Lee Han stopped harassing Nilia and stepped towards the magic circle.
Although it was regrettable that he could not achieve results in lectures, it is not possible to achieve perfect grades in all lectures.
Of course, he had to study even more terribly as he had to make up for the loss he saw in todayâs lecture in another lecture, but Lee Han accepted it.
âToday I should just empty my mind and go around.â
Pod!
Along with the feeling of floating, the sense that the soul moves to another plane.
The smell of salty seawater came along with the open sea without anything. It was like being alone on a remote island.
âA sea or water marine type monster?â
The environment was the first clue given to magicians trying to negotiate with beings from other realms.
Experienced and well-informed summoning wizards even guessed the name of the spirit by looking only at the surrounding environment.
with a splash!
A spirit that looked like a dolphin stuck out on the surface of the water in the distance.
Lee Han cautiously greeted them.
âHello, Mr. Dolphin?â
Instead of answering, the dolphin went under the surface and did not come out again.
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han became bitter.
âShould I just grab it by force?â
There was nothing more dangerous and reckless than competing with spirits in the spirit realm by force, but I think it would be better than talking aimlessly like this⦠â
?
â
After Lee Han stopped the spirit flood, the pattern he received from Upinum began to glow.
At the same time, the sea in front of me parted on both sides like an ebb tide, revealing the sea path.
It was like a signal to come in.
âThe spirit repays the favor!â
Lee Han felt an overwhelming emotion.
As expected, even the insignificant insignificant thing repays the favor, as long as it is a great spirit that is about the size of Upinumâ¦!
* * *
Professor Millay, who was sitting in the chair, frowned as he watched the magic circle move.
Since it is a magic circle that protects students with complex spells and blessings, it couldnât be a good sign.
âwhat?â
When I checked, one of the students had left the area protected by the magic circle and entered the outer area.
âLee Han is a student.â
Although he has not been able to confirm who it is yet, Professor Millay immediately identified the culprit.
