Episode 736
âHey. âIt seems like a trap.â
âMarcan. Come to your senses! âItâs a trap!â
Students in other cells became suspicious of Uldeâs shouting and stopped him.
No matter how you think about it, it was a strange situation.
I canât believe thereâs a person walking around in the punishment room who calls Ulde a senior.
Logically, it made no sense.
âItâs not a trap! âA junior who worked with me came to see me!â
ââ¦â¦â
ââ¦This bastard lied and got himself drunk!â
Other students sighed.
When he was bluffing that there was contraband outside, I should have slapped him in the face to make him come to his senses, but because I left him alone, his condition worsened.
Since the punishment room was such a lonely and sad place, the students imprisoned here often fell into madness.
âMarcan. I donât particularly like you, another top, but I will still give you advice as a comrade in the same punishment room. âThe worst lie of all is the lie that fools you too.â
âthatâs right. When I first came to the punishment room, I lied and said I came after robbing the principalâs room. âThat lie led to more lies, and in the end, I really had to rob the principalâs room.â
âWho are these idiots treating as a maniac?! âHeâs a real junior!â
Of course, I was furious.
A distinguished junior from the Wardanaz family came to see him, but these despicable bastards were plotting against him.
âMarcan. Put your hand on your heart and think. If you were a junior, would I really go through this dangerous and difficult maze of punishment rooms and come all the way here just to meet you? sincerely?â
âHeâs right. Thatâs a trap. âMaybe heâs the principalâs new minion.â
ââ¦â¦â
Eolde began to shake slightly at the words of his solitary friends.
When I thought about it, no matter how talented he was, I couldnât believe that a guy who had just entered his second year had come all the way through the maze of the punishment room.
Is he really a minion sent by the principal?
ââ¦But what are you going to do by disguising it as that? Thereâs nothing you can do. âItâs already a punishment room.â
âI just want to enjoy seeing you suffer. âItâs the principalâs hobby.â
Ulde became more and more shaken by the plausible words.
At that time, Lee Han came down the stairs and arrived at the end of the hallway.
Lee Han breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the cells on both sides of the hallway were full of seniors.
âEveryone is here.â
ââ¦!â
â!!â
Without anyone saying anything, the students quickly turned around and stood facing the wall.
Dealing with the Skeleton Principalâs new minion was dangerous in itself.
âWhere are you, senior?â
ââ¦â¦â
âAre you angry because youâre trapped?â
I held on to my shaking heart and pretended not to hear.
Lee Han was puzzled, but once he arrived, he listed out the things he had to do one by one.
âI brought some snacks here. âIâll leave it for you, so if youâre bored, eat it.â
The basket contained freshly baked white bread, a simple sandwich with ham and eggs with honey strawberry jam for dipping, and canned pork and beef.
If it were outside, he would have to sell it for money, but Lee Han wasnât cold-hearted enough to ask his senior, who sacrificed himself for the success of the project, to give him money.
âIs there anyone who would like to eat it? I brought plenty. âI wonât accept the gold coins, but I will just give them to you.â
ââ¦â¦â
The seniorsâ fear reached its highest level.
Heâs a minion who offers to give you groceries without receiving gold coins.
I couldnât even guess what kind of trick it was.
âAre you all angry? Then Iâll just leave. senior. âIâll see you when I get out of the punishment room.â
When no one answered, Lee Han tilted his head and headed back to the stairs.
The Death Knight coming down from above shouted loudly when he spotted Lee Han.
-for a moment!
â!â
-The path hidden in the wall over there is faster than this path.
âthank you.â
âalso!â
The studentsâ confidence grew even stronger when the Death Knight showed them the way instead of arresting them.
Only after their junior had completely disappeared did the students in the punishment room exhale deeply.
âafter. âIt was a terrible trap.â
âI almost answered without thinking.â
âMarcan. You must not eat it. âI can assure you that it is absolutely poison!â
Even though it was frozen, I thought so at first and didnât even touch the basket.
However, it was not easy to maintain such patience in the punishment room.
After trying all kinds of magic to check, Ulde finally took a bite of the bread.
ââ¦is it delicious?â
âwhat? âYou really ate it?â
âThis is fine, this is fine too⦠Hey, you stupid bastards!! âYouâre really a junior!!!â
Ulde realized too late that he was really a junior and shouted.
However, other students still did not believe Uldeâs claims.
âDoes it make sense that your junior brought you something to eat?â
âIt must be Jihyo-seongâs poison.â
âMarcan. Then you explain. âIf that junior was really a junior, how did he get in here and how would he have become friends with the Death Knight?â
I was angry, but I couldnât refute it.
It was so true.
âTsk. âHow on earth did they get in?â
* * *
As Lee Han came out after finishing the lecture, he found senior Perse and his friends.
âhello. Seniors.â
ââ¦â¦â
Perse couldnât answer with blank eyes. The friends next to him explained it for him.
âsorry. âPerse was mistakenly transformed into an invertebrate in the lecture just now, so I guess there are still some aftereffects.â
âI see.â
However, the seniorsâ expressions looked dark and tired, even considering that their friend had transformed incorrectly.
Lee Han spoke to support his seniors.
âEveryone, cheer up. âItâs almost the weekend.â
ââ¦I have lectures on weekends as well.â
â!â
Lee Han was taken aback by his seniorâs gloomy answer.
Are there lectures on weekends?
âDoes that make sense?â
âWhy are there lectures on the weekend?â
âwell. Is there a lot of content to teach? Is it because of lack of training? âIs the professor crazy?â
âNo matter what, I think itâs too harshâ¦â
âYouâre listening to all the schoolâs magic. âWhatâs severe is that itâs severe.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han was hurt by his seniorâs words. Another friend next to me scolded.
âWhy are you telling your junior that your lecture is cursed?â
âjoy. âItâs true.â
âI said hello for no reason.â
Lee Han thought that from now on, if he sees seniors who look tired, he should avoid talking to them first.
Itâs usually not as sharp as it is tired.
âThis must be Professor Bendozolâs lecture, right?â
As I turned my attention to the next lecture, the name caught my eye.
Just looking at the name, it felt like there was a high possibility that this was Professor Bendozol.
Even the lecture location is quite far away from the main building, in the western Nightmare Echo Forest.
The forest here was notorious even to the current second-year students because last year, several students from the White Tiger Tower and the Black Turtle Tower nearly went missing while looking for food.
All kinds of evil spirits and spirit-type monsters run rampant, trying to drive out intruders from the forest.
Although most of the professors at Einrogard were not sane, it was rare among them to have a professor who would give a lecture at a place like that.
Lee Han walked along the path. The road itself wasnât that difficult as I had been there several times.
You might not know it once you enter the mountains, but if you are a second-year Einrogard student, you will never get lost on the plains.
âItâs strangely quiet.â
Still, Lee Han became cautious for no reason as he had already stepped into a trap left by the clone of a crazy wizard when he went to the Dark Forest with Direth not long ago.
âSharkhan.â
Lee Han, who summoned a summoned beast, walked slowly while exploring the surroundings.
Instead of just summoning Sharkan, he floated a sphere of light on the staff and cast other strengthening spells.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
But despite doing this, nothing special happened.
âWas I oversensitive?â
If there had been a threat or an enemy, they would have come out a long time ago, but since there were no special attacks and no one caught his senses, Lee Han wondered if he had made a mistake.
How long did it take to walk like that?
I saw a large clearing in the forest. This was the destination of this lecture.
Sure enough, Professor Bendozol was waiting for the students with his arms crossed and a disapproving look on his face.
âprofessor. hello.â
ââ¦Wha what?! âHow did you arrive!â
The professor was startled by Lee Hanâs greeting and shouted.
I certainly didnât expect that there would be a student arriving so quickly.
Lee Han was even more embarrassed by that reaction.
âLecture is about to start, right? Of course it arrives. Butâ¦â
Lee Han looked around the vacant lot and belatedly realized that no one was there.
Something was strange.
If this was a lecture on black magic, it made sense to listen to it alone, but no matter how crazy Professor Bendozol was, a lecture like âExtremely Beautiful Creaturesâ was bound to be somewhat popular.
But why is there no one in the vacant lot?
âWhy is there no one?â
âThere isnât any because we havenât arrived yet. You call that a question? Rather, how did you arrive?â
ââ¦Were there any traps on the way?â
âWhat a trap! You canât even call it a trap. âItâs just a test!â
Lee Han persistently questioned the shameless professor, who said something he thought he had heard somewhere recently.
As a result, I was able to understand a little bit what this lecture on âExtremely Beautiful Creaturesâ was about.
This lecture was originally held in a dangerous place within Einrogardâs territory.
Originally, he could have brought the creatures directly to show them, but Professor Bendozol was more careful.
The rarer and more powerful the creature, the more dangerous it is to live in a place, so it is helpful to go there and show it in person.
Of course, the students were not easily persuaded by Professor Bendozolâs feelings. There were always many students arriving late or dropping out.
Although he often felt heartbroken because of such disloyal students, Professor Bendozol steadfastly maintained his educational direction.
Didnât the professor pick a date in the Nightmare Echo Forest where the magical power in the forest was strong and stimulate the monsters even more to make them more ferocious?
If you do not have your own philosophy about education, it is difficult to be sincere.
ââ¦Youâre in big trouble. âThis lecture is crazier than I expected.â
Lee Han felt his heart sink.
I had expected a certain level of madness since I assumed it was Professor Bendozolâs lecture, but this went beyond that.
You have to visit a new dangerous area for every lecture.
âWhy arenât you answering! âHow did you arrive?â
âI just walked.â
âYou just walked? What about the raid? What about evil spirits? âSomething like a group of ghosts?â
âThere was none.â
ââ¦â¦â
Professor Bendozol looked at Lee Han with eyes of shock and disbelief.
I couldnât believe that I prepared so hard but had no effect on the students.
âNonsense! These evil spirits. âIâm sure you wonât just pick your opponent and attack them in a mean way!â
While Professor Bendozol was furious and analyzing what his mistake was, Lee Han asked the question again.
âprofessor. I have a question.â
âgriffon? basilisk? Unicorn?â
âNot all three.â
âThen what are you curious about?â
âThe difference is, if all the students come late, how will the lecture proceed?â
âIf I canât teach everything, I just do it on the weekends.â
Professor Bendozol answered bluntly.
I didnât want to teach the students on the weekends, but according to Einrogardâs rules, I had no choice.
It was truly a pity.
âindeed.â
âCome here for a moment! I need to check why the monsters havenât even appearedâ¦â
Professor Bendozol started speaking and realized that the boy from the Wardanaz family had disappeared into the forest again.
Surprisingly, this boy was trying to bring other students!
