Episode 700
âI didnât know you could come out even though I didnât summon you.â
-The energy of darkness is truly overflowing!
Undead wizard Verdus took a deep breath, filled with power.
Originally, once beings from other dimensions were summoned, it was difficult to summon them again until their power was restored.
Moreover, Verdus still has the injuries sustained by the King of Ghouls.
Verdus himself checked the surrounding situation several times, as if he had no idea that he would come to this world without a call.
The mighty spider monster was going on a rampage and breathing even more poisonous breath.
-for a moment. Surely this wonât be a test from the teacher like last time?
âOh, that is.â
Lee Han paused.
During the last black magic midterm, Lee Han misunderstood the undead wave of his seniors and called Verdus to stop it.
Verdus, who had fought hard for the contractor, later found out the truth and hurled all kinds of abusive language.
âIs this also a test from the teacher?â
If you really want to be specific, it was the principalâs test, but in some ways, you could say it wasnât a test as it was an accidentâ¦
-Probably not. No teacher would send out such a monster as a test subject.
ââ¦â¦â
-But why are those death knights looking at me like that?
The undead wizard was puzzled by the looks the Death Knights were giving him.
These were not rookie apprentice knights, but death knights who had experienced both glory in life and suffering after death, and were looking at us with a strange degree of fear.
One of the Death Knights asked cautiously.
-Did you turn the professor into an undead?
âno.â
Lee Han answered with a straight face.
No matter how much you misunderstand, isnât it too serious of a misunderstanding?
The Death Knights were disappointed with Lee Hanâs answer.
-Ugh!
-I expected a littleâ¦
ââ¦â¦â
The undead wizard called Lee Han as if asking for an explanation. The behavior of those Death Knights from earlier was very strange.
âah. âThere is a wizard with the name of the Verdus family, but the relationship between him and those death knights is not very good.â
-indeed. Was it something like that? There are so many death knights that they make such a fuss. No matter how much the family name matches, they are scared by a mere wizard.
âhaha.â
Lee Han thought that his opinion would change a little when he met Professor Verdus.
Professor Verdus had a fear that went beyond strength.
-Moreover, there must be hundreds of Verdus families not only on the continent but also in other systems.
âThat is correct.â
-Tsk tsk. By the way, what is the wizardâs race?
âyes? âWhy are you asking that?â
-When I still had a body made of skin, my race was a beaver. I asked just in case. Because itâs not a common race!
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han felt even more fear than when Anansi was summoned earlier. I felt like all the blood was draining out of my body and my body was becoming cold.
no way?
âno. It must be a coincidence.â
Although the undead wizard in front of me was a lich and worked in the palace of the Ghoul King, he was fundamentally a good and upright person.
Thereâs no way such a person could be Professor Verdusâ ancestor.
-Why are you standing still?
â!â
Anansi, who was cleaning up the cumbersome Death Knights, found Lee Han belatedly and his eyes flashed.
The Death Knights shouted hastily.
-Buh⦠Wizard. Please help!
-Buh⦠buh⦠Iâd like to ask for your damn support!
-i get it! Letâs cooperate!
As the undead wizard was an experienced lich, he did not waste any more time with useless conversation.
The snake, bones, and dark elements moved and formed a magic circle.
-You go in here!
-Is it a protective magic circle?
As Lee Han entered the magic circle, the Death Knights asked.
It was unusual for a protective magic circle.
-Itâs a magic absorption magic circle?
âItâs a magic absorption magic circle.â
-â¦â¦
The Death Knights paused for a moment in response to the undead wizard and Lee Han.
I was confused as to whether I should subdue Anansi or the lich who was trying to exploit the magic power of my masterâs disciple.
âWhy are you so calm while being absorbed by magical power?â
âIsnât it difficult to learn under the master without going crazy?â
While the Death Knights paused, the undead wizard finished charging his magic power.
Since the contractor had so much magic, it wasnât that difficult to prepare. Moreover, it was filled with dark elements around itâ¦
-Engrave it in me, Pentagrammaton!
With so much power, the undead wizard even used the small world.
The black magic limitations of the wizard and his close range were lifted, and dozens or hundreds of magic spells were completed before the wizardâs chant.
A black aura surrounded the Death Knights and thickened their armor. The sword, which was burning blue with negative energy, became sharper and more brutal.
-Hit haggam ληαεγδ â â â â¦
The magic was cast so quickly that it exceeded the limits of perception, so much so that the words of the spell could not be heard.
Despite this, the magic did not interfere with or affect each other. He strengthened the Death Knights and weakened Anansi without any error.
-Aaaah!
Even Anansi, who ran wild trusting only his strong exoskeleton no matter what attack he received, felt pain as dozens of curses came in like a tide.
The Death Knights, who received proper support, roared and charged.
-Wait a minute! for a moment!
-Itâs late. You should have listened when I said it earlier!
Although they cannot draw out the same vibrant magic as when they were alive, the powers that the Death Knights received after swearing to the master of death far exceeded that.
The power to receive infinite power of darkness without any limitations!
The Death Knights, who borrowed the power of black magic, spewed out a black aura and slaughtered Anansi.
-Great!
The undead wizard was satisfied after watching the Death Knights fight.
I was scared by a wizard with the same family name, so I thought how poor knights they were, but when I saw them fight, it was clear that they were brave knights even when they were alive.
thud!
When the giant spider finally fell, the undead wizard expressed his gratitude to the knights for their dedication.
-Thank you all for your hard work. May your sword live as eternally as its reputation!
-Wizard, I hope your magic will also last forever!
-But how did that spider come about?
-Hugh, the master came out to test the students.
-â¦â¦
The undead wizard looked at Lee Han with his mouth wide open.
Lee Han quickly ran towards the students.
* * *
After the battle was over, the Death Knights, who had taken care of the commotion (which included stopping the undead wizard who was swearing in excitement and sending him away), conducted another inspection.
Unlike before, this inspection was quiet and peaceful.
This was because all the students who tried to smuggle were caught and they were exhausted.
-Pass.
âthank you.â
-Pass.
âIs he the one from before?â
-I told you to pass. student. Of course, to answer your question, yes.
âHeyâ¦â
âIs he Wodanaz by any chance? âI thought it was Einrogardâs nonsense.â
âYou mean it wasnât a fake rumor made up by the skeleton principal?â
Even in the midst of the confusion earlier, the seniors who saw Lee Han running through Anansiâs toxic breath and being with the Death Knights were amazed and started whispering.
Lee Han raised the Gai Nando to avoid eye contact. Gainando was displeased and struggled.
-Please pass.
âah. yes. sorry. Junior! Are you interested in the hardball club⦠Ugh!â
The Death Knights sternly sanctioned students who broke the rules.
It was not possible to arbitrarily persuade second-year students who were not yet prepared by recommending clubs, recommending schools, recommending research, etc.
-I canât recommend clubs or schools.
-And isnât school recommendation meaningless? Anywayâ¦
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han looked at the Death Knights with a hurt expression. The Death Knights, who realized it too late, cleared their throats and averted their gaze.
-Please give me a backpack.
âHere it is.â
Lee Han took out a backpack for confiscation.
It was a backpack that had been adequately filled to prevent it from being confiscated.
The warehouse manager and the Death Knight took a quick look around and whispered.
-Please pass by.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âyes?â
-You can just pass by. To be honest, Iâm having a hard time, but you can take this with me.
I felt sympathy not only from the Death Knights but also from the warehouse keeper, who was invisible because his eyes were covered with bandages.
Among the skeleton principalâs minions, there were few who did not feel sorry for Lee Han.
ââ¦Oh no. âYou canât just change the school rules like thatâ¦â
Of course, from Lee Hanâs perspective, it was an embarrassing story.
Lee Han asked just in case.
âAre you going to fight with Anansi earlier and let us pass?â
The question was filled with desperation.
It was a desperate attempt to preserve the meaning of underground smuggling that went through all that hardship.
-Thatâs not it. Originally, I was going to let you take a little with you.
â Pass by quickly.
ââ¦Thank youâ¦â
Lee Han picked up his backpack with slumped shoulders and walked forward.
The Death Knights were puzzled by that appearance.
-Why donât you like it?
-You must be acting. Arenât the masterâs eyes all over the school?
-indeedâ¦! It may be a bit rude to say this, but it seems like not everyone can become the masterâs disciple.
-haha. of course!
* * *
ââ¦It wasnât in vain.â
After passing the inspection and heading to the Blue Dragon Tower, Lee Han regained his strength.
In fact, since it was just a backpack, the Death Knights took pity on it and let it pass. If it had come with a smuggling wagon, there was a high possibility that even the Death Knights would have reacted by saying, âThis is a bit much.â
Underground smuggling was definitely not in vain.
âThat is correct. Lee Han. âIt is absolutely not in vain.â
Gainando spoke in an unusually serious voice.
Lee Han was slightly moved.
âDo you think so too?â
âI sacrificed myself by even taking poison!â
ââ¦â¦â
Yoner whispered next to me.
âThis is the 23rd time I just walked.â
ââ¦Letâs just wait until we go in.â
After completing the inspection, the second-year students gathered one by one in front of the Blue Dragon Tower and stopped when they spotted their senior.
The Blue Dragon Tower senior, who had been waiting while tickling the tips of his snakeskin boots as if he was bored, got up from his seat when the second year students gathered.
âEveryone is here. There are no second-year students who went to the punishment room here, right? If there are any, please let me know later. I am Perse of the Quillberg family. Iâm moving up to the 4th grade this time. âI was waiting to explain to you the life of Einrogard Bronze Grade.â
âSenior, you are the 4th year representative⦠the student council president⦠the leader⦠I donât know if there is such a thing, but is it something like that?â
âno. The reason I was waiting was because I lost the lottery. And nothing I just said. Donât be fooled even if there is a principal. Unless you want to be made fun of. âWhen I was in my second year, I was deceived by the principalâs words and tried to become the student council president when I wasnât even there.â
ââ¦â¦â
Perse was tall and muscular. It looked more like a white tiger tower than a blue dragon tower.
After seeing the magic on the snakeskin boots and the gyeokgu hanging on his back, Lee Han realized that the other person really liked the gyeokgu. Or use the gyeokguchae as a weapon.
âItâs a good thing you didnât participate in the smuggling. âThere are people who get fooled every year.â
âShouldnât the seniors have stopped you more?â
Perse shrugged her shoulders in response to someoneâs question.
âThey tried to do more if we stopped them. âItâs so ironic.â
ââ¦â¦â
âAnyway, shall we begin? Since I am also a fourth year student, I donât have much time. What you need to know this school year is largely about club lecture requests. Club members will come and explain things starting tomorrow, so shall I start by explaining the lectures? âIs there anyone here who listens to one school?â
Several students raised their hands. Perse nodded.
âItâs not a bad idea to major in one more thing in your second year. I guess it makes research more flexible. Who hears two?â
Quite a few students raised their hands. Perse was satisfied.
âThe students at Blue Dragon Tower are always the most studious and intellectually outstanding. âAre there even three?â
Adenart raised his hand. Perse bowed politely with respect.
Even if he was a junior, a wizard who majored in three schools deserved to be greeted like this.
âI show my respect. âItâs a great feat, but if you find it difficult, consider reducing your school level. Your professor will understand.â
âis it?â
Lee Han tilted his head inwardly.
I donât think soâ¦
