âProfessor Kyo.â
Lee Han, who heard Professor Thunderwalkâs voice, gestured.
The professor turned and looked at the student.
And I was even more surprised.
âWas there a real war?!â
The discipleâs form was a mess, as if he had been on the battlefield for three days.
The cloak was torn in half, the hair was disheveled, the face was covered in mud and dust, with dried blood⦠I
didnât understand why they fought so fiercely in such a short time.
Lee Han coughed and said.
âI couldnât help it.â
âWhat did you mean you couldnât help it?â
âThe Corruptions tried to attack the elementals.â
âThat⦠Wait a minute.â
Professor Thunderwalk, who was trying to be slightly moved by the heart of a warm disciple who thought of the spirits, caught his spirit.
There were some strange things.
âYou guys must have been inside the cabin? The magic circles must have been protecting you?â
âIt was.â
Priests Yoner and Cyana answered with tired voices.
It wasnât as bad as Lee Han, but it was a tough fight between the two of them, and it was dusty.
âBut I came out and fought.â
ââ¦why?â
âI want to protect the spirits.â
âI see. ⦠why???!â
No matter how much he listened to it, Professor Wooreegeol was confused because he did not understand.
To dare to rush out like this to save the spirits when it was safe to be inside the magic circle.
Do you owe anything to the spirits?
* * *
âIâm still far away.â
When the squirrel spirit showed affection, Lee Han gained a deep realization.
Until now, the reason why the spirits hated Lee Han was because of his lack of effort.
Even the spirits had no reason to avoid Lee Han if they made an effort.
âI had to put the spirits in danger.â
Come to think of it, the existing spirits had no reason to be attracted to Lee Han.
But what if you are in danger?
What if Lee Han saved him in that state?
âYou might have a crush on me.â
âLeehan⦠I want to help you with what youâre trying to do, but Iâm worried that you seem to be having strange thoughtsâ¦â
Yoner looked at his friend with sincere eyes.
I was very worried after hearing Lee Hanâs new spirit contract theory.
Of course, the spirits were sensitive to grace, and it was right that they could buy favors if they were saved.
However, it was as if the friend in front of him was forcibly declaring that he would give grace by putting the spirit in danger.
âIs it because of my mood?â
âno way. It will be fine. Itâs a good thing to do now. Itâs about helping the spirits in crisis, right?â
Priest Shiana said as if she wasnât worried.
âThatâs trueâ¦â
âAnd thereâs no way Mr. Wodanaz would forcefully endanger the spirits.â
Lee Han, who was walking in front of him, hesitated at those words.
When Yoner saw that, he became even more concerned.
âIt is a pollutant. Watch out everyone!â
Lee Han moved thoroughly as if to prove that he was undergoing rigorous training as a combat mage.
After placing his friends in the realm of invisibility magic, he even cast and because that wasnât enough.
As the illusion fog spread over a wide area and even the alter ego moved within it, it became even more difficult to focus outside.
The strengthening magic that follows.
âMrs. Wardanaz. What about the Nimble Step spell?â
âI canât do that because the side effects are severe.â
â?â
Priest Siana was about to ask, âThen what about the students of the White Tiger Tower?â but Lee Han immediately waved his staff without stopping.
âArise, warriors of bone!â
I took out a piece of black bone from my pocket and threw it, swinging my cane, and Skeleton Warriors appeared on the other side of the students.
They were not ordinary skeleton warriors, but skeleton warriors affected by the bone fragments compressed by the dark element.
The contaminants reacted sensitively, as if they felt the energy of an element similar to themselves.
âIâm ready. Attack!â
Since the allies had been protected with various magics and even mobilized summoned beasts from behind the enemy to block their sight, it was time to start attacking in earnest.
Lee Han and his friends poured sharp magic and hit the pollutants.
âRush, the thunderbolt of Perkuntra!â
Flashing bolts of lightning struck the corruptors.
Originally, they were low-class undead that would have been burned in one blow, but thanks to their combination with the Dark Spirit, some of them somehow managed to survive.
The one who grows in size and thickens his armor by attaching himself to the other, the one who dodges attacks by digging into the ground, the one who tries to reduce the power by emitting dark elements like mist⦠Yoner narrows his eyes as he watches his friendâs magic bombardment, then sees an opportunity
. As soon as he grabbed it, he swung his staff.
âBreak it up, amplify it!â
Alchemists like Yonerâs spells consumed much less magic if they had prepared well in advance.
The bottle of potion whirled and flew, then shattered in the air, exploding its power.
Roaring!
âThe power of the fire has weakened!â
âI canât help it!â
Priests Yoner and Cyana were sorry to see that the power of the ignition potion had weakened, but they couldnât help it.
The force of the season was suppressing the flames.
âThe power of fire has weakened?â
âhuh?â
âBurn up!â
Lee Han burned the nearest pollutant with fire.
Taken directly by the sudden burst of flame, the Contaminant collapsed without resistance.
Yoner put on a shocked expression when he saw his friend who maintained his firepower this season.
What is this�!
âHold on, everyone! The spirits are escaping!â
Priest Shiana exclaimed in delight.
While the pollutants were surrounded on both sides and beaten, the pursued spirits found a way out into the forest.
After being beaten one-sidedly, the enraged taints merged, swelled up and brandished their claws, but the initial surprise was fatal.
The mages in the back couldnât even properly position themselves because of the fog, and the dark skeleton warriors in the front were holding on tenaciously thanks to their elemental enhancements.
âfor a moment. Are you leaving?â
âyes? yes.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han pondered for a moment.
Seeing that, Yoner hoped to call his friend.
âLee Han? Lee Han⦠Itâs not like that, is it?â
âI must help the spirits!â
Lee Han released the invisibility magic and jumped out of the fog.
And he ran to the place where the spirits were getting out of there.
⦠â â ???
The Corruptors naturally responded when a mage burst out of the fog.
Hiss!
Like a whip, a long thorn rose from the taintâs forehead and aimed at Lee Han.
This irregular attack by the contaminant without a fixed body was a strength that was difficult to counter in close combat.
Unfortunately for the Contaminant, however, Lee Han was a senior student in the School of Black Magic.
âDarkness, gather here!â
Lee Han immediately chanted a dark element absorption spell and swung his staff.
Originally, it was a spell that gathered the dark elements in the air at the tip of the staff, but in the current situation, it was more like a battle for control over the dark elements.
It was truly terrifying strength.
The contaminant, whose body was mostly composed of dark elements, struggled with the feeling of being ripped off. It was a strange feeling that I couldnât feel for a while. Lee Han didnât wait, he pulled out the morning star with his other hand and swung it.
Few weapons were as effective as an artifact like the Morning Star against such a magical construct.
Chow!
The contaminant, which had been staggering as it absorbed the dark element, collapsed.
Lee Han shouted loudly at the spirits.
âEveryone run away! I will stop you!â
!
â â ! â â !
The spirits with various shapes turned their heads at Lee Hanâs cry, found the wizard, and made a sound.
âIt worked!â
Lee Han was deeply moved when the spirits sent friendly gazes.
It was rewarding to solve the invisible magic and run!
Quad de de de de de deuk!
In an instant, the dark skeleton warriors bounced off to the side and were reverse summoned.
â â â â â¦
ââ¦â¦â
A gigantic pollutant with a size different from the other contaminants appeared in front of them.
Lee Han looked at the pollutants and then at the spirits again.
ââ¦run away! I will stop you!â
âLeehan! Please stop and come back!â
* * *
âSo?â
Professor Wooreeul threw ointment at Lee Han and asked.
âHow did you avoid it?â
âDid you catch it?â
ââ¦really?â
âyes.â
âhow??â
âI just continued to dodge and roll until I fell downâ¦â
ââ¦â¦â
Professor Thunderstruck was astonished at how ignorant a wizard could be.
A wizard fighting an earth battle against a monster?
Basically, if the magicianâs magical power and the monsterâs vitality were put into a fight, the latter would have an unconditional advantage.
But he ignored it and just went to Earth War and captured it.
Somehow, the surrounding area was a mess as if a war had broken outâ¦
âWhere is the guy who swears a beard to look good to the spirits!?â
âI didnât try to look good to the spirits. professor. I just want to help the spiritâ¦
â
Watching the disciple proudly spouting unconvincing lies, Professor Thunderwalker clicked his tongue.
Of course, there were wizards who went to great lengths to make a contract with the spirits.
However, none of them courted her as radically and violently as the boy in front of her.
To show the spirits a fight like that, risking their lives to win favor with them.
âUgh. thank you.â
After roughly wiping off the blood and applying ointment to the wound, Lee Han stood up.
âWhere are you going?â
âThe spirits were running away into the forest earlier.
ââ¦for a moment. wait.â
The thunder walk professor grabbed the student.
âSeeing that the contaminants are coming out now, it is clear that there is a commotion somewhere on the Einrogarde site. Youâd better stay away from the forest for a while.â
âAll right. I will only meet the spirits and return.â
A basilisk and a squirrel spirit clung to both of Yihanâs wrists as if telling them not to go.
Priest Yoner and Cyana also grabbed each other by the shoulders.
âLee Han. Your condition is dangerous now. When you saw the fight earlier, your stamina and magic must have been consumed.â
âYour mana is not consumedâ¦â
âBe quiet. Anyway, my stamina must have been consumed.â
Yonerâs voice was a little colder than usual.
Priest Siana was also serious.
âHonestly, since the spirits arenât that important, is there any reason to risk your life right now?â
âI see⦠wait. How many spirits did Priest Shiana make contracts with?â
âThree?â
Lee Han straightened up and pushed away Priest Sianaâs hand.
Judging by his usual attitude, I thought he wasnât very interested in spirits!
âOh no. Numbers donât matter, love matters. Mr. Wodanaz. Look at the spirits here.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han softened up a bit, and Yoner quickly responded.
âLee Han. Think carefully. The spirits wonât forget grace anyway. Professor, you can go after hunting all the pollutants.â
âuh?â
Professor Thunderwalk was taken aback when an arrow flew by.
Why should the unfortunate guy hunt the pollutants?
ââ¦I donât think so.â
When everyone except him stopped him, Lee Han also changed his mind.
âAfter all the contaminants are gone, you can go in. The spirits will not forget your grace.â
âuh. But will the spirits go back to their dimension? It wasnât officially summoned in the first place, so you donât know how long it will last.â
Professor Thunderwalker pointed it out without much thought, but when Yoner and Priest Cyana both looked at each other hurriedly at the same time, he felt sorry for him.
âprofessor.â
âOh no. It could be for a long timeâ¦â
âLetâs go together.â
Lee Han said with his eyes burning with the determination to hold on until he listened.
âNoâ¦! Why did Iâ¦!â
âLetâs go together.â
Professor Thunderstruck was overwhelmed by the roaring eyes of his pupil.
