Episode 846
âItâs a shame.â
Who would have thought that such an arrogant duke would change like that.
Even though I wasnât particularly fond of Duke Ikaldoren, I felt sympathy for him.
And the most surprising thing about this was that there was no malice on the part of Yukveltyre himself.
âEven if the torture had been intentional, I donât
think it would have turned out that wellâ¦â Even if Lee Han and Yukveltire had joined hands and one played the role of a good torturer and the other a bad torturer, the results would not have been this good.
As a disciple of Professor Verdus, he had a natural talent for torturing people.
âAnyway, I guess I should tell my senior.â
Ihan tried to find Yukveltyre and tell him that he would take care of the duke for the next few days.
It might be a little annoying, but I felt so sorry for Duke Ikaldoren that I felt like I had to do that.
We have already received confirmed sponsorship for two research studies.
âOh. Senior!â
As I climbed up and went out of the Heukam Pavilion, I saw Yukbeltire passing by.
Yukveltire, who was checking the time by winding the mainspring of his pocket watch with his thin, white fingers, slowly turned his head when he heard his juniorâs call.
âhello.â
âOkay. Nice to meet you.â
Lee Han quickly threw the staff he was holding into the grave pit next to him so that the other person would not notice.
To be honest, I thought it would be okay to show it, but what Delet said bothered me for no reason.
If he tried to bully Lee Han with his seniorâs authority and status, it would not be good, so it was right to be careful.
âfor a moment. Did the tree spirit hate places like that?â
After throwing it, I thought about it, and I realized that tree spirits donât like places like grave pits.
As it is a spirit related to life, it could not help but be disgusted with the jealousy and evil spirit of the black magic school.
âWell, there is nothing we can do about it.â
Lee Han quickly gave up.
What to do with something that has already been thrown?
And the tree spirit was strong and fierce, so it wouldnât be a problem if it fell into a grave pit.
âSenior. Whatâs going on here?â
âI have to return the book I borrowed from Delet. How about you?â
âI came here because I was wondering if His Highness the Duke was doing well.
Yukveltire shook his head slightly as if he had done something useless.
âThe Duke is being taken care of perfectly. Donât waste your time.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han was dumbfounded. He
was even more dumbfounded because he was confident.
âYou almost killed someone and then you confidently say something like that?â
âHave you checked today?â
âNo.â
âWhy?â
âA junior from the Wardanaz family. As you will see, the important thing in enchantment magic is efficiency. âJust as there is no need to recalculate a perfectly calculated magic formula, there is no need to go back to the Duke, who is in perfect control.â
Yukveltire said without a doubt.
He added exactly the amount of food the Duke wanted. So there was no need to manage it until the designated period was over.
ââ¦Oh, yes. By the way, senior. Would it be okay for me to manage the Duke from now on?â
âWhy?â
Lee Han was about to say, âHis Highness the Duke wants to kill you,â but held back.
He was worried that Yukveltire might be stubborn.
âAs a junior, I will help you with your work . âI want to give it to you.â
âIâve thought about it well now. âMy artificial dimension researchâ¦â
âI donât like that.â
ââ¦â¦â
When Lee Han immediately refused, dissatisfaction bloomed on Yukveltireâs expressionless face.
Why did this junior show respect for his senior with qualifications and talent? Even though you have it, you keep rejecting it?
âIâm too busy to even do that. Anyway, can I take charge of it?â
âYes. Instead, you shouldnât kill His Highness because you canât manage him. Because sheâs an important hostage.â
ââ¦â¦â
Lee Han clenched his fists without realizing it.
âThe other person is a senior. You must never attack. The other person is a senior. You must never attack.â
âyes. Iâll try my best. âEnough paintingâ¦â
âWait a minute.â
â?â
Yukveltyre called out to Lee Han, who
was about to turn around. âHowâs the wand making going?â
âYou mean the wand?â
After glancing at the grave pit next to him, Lee Han said, âI âm looking for a black magnet ,â he said carefully .
By the way, senior. How would you feel if someone completed my wand instead?â
âIf I complete it, I guess I will complete it.â
Yukveltire answered immediately as if nothing had happened.
At that answer, Ihan sighed in relief.
âWhat? . Was Senior Direth worried for no reason?â
Although Senior Yukveltyre was a bit of a strange person, he was not the kind of person who would get angry or bully his juniors for having someone else complete the cane for them.
âDid someone say they would complete it for you?â
âI heard that kind of offerâ¦â
âRejection is the right thing to do. â I think it would be good. After all, heâs probably a low-level fraudster. Seeing as he is trying to steal the work of another enchantment wizard, he
must be a shameless piece of trash.â It
was Lee Hanâs first time seeing Yukveltire speak so long and quickly. He let out the words in one breath without taking a breath.
âNo⦠just now. You said that if you complete it, you will complete it.â
âThatâs right?â
âBut the person who suggested it is a fraudster and trashâ¦â
âBecause he is a fraudster and trash. Rather, it can be said to be a moderate expression. Even if I spend my whole life wandering in hell with eternal damnation in my soul, it wouldnât
be enough.â
ââ¦â¦â
âYouâd rather just be angryâ¦â
The older man said that he wasnât angry, but was giving off a sharp look. Lee Han was shocked at the sight.
The good news was that Professor Verdus was able to handle most of that anger⦠but
what was unsettling was that some of that anger could spill over to Lee Han.
Although his attitude was irrational and unreasonable, he was originally an Einrogard wizard. Arenât most people like that?
âIâll have to tell you later.â
Or never talk about it.
âOkay. Seniors. Iâll keep that in mind. Now thenâ¦â
âJunior of the Wardanaz family.â
âYes?â
âYou will decline the offer, right?â
ââ¦Yes. Well then, Iâll really just goâ¦â
âOkay.â
Ihan sighed in relief and turned around.
He planned to come back and pick up the wand once Yukveltire disappeared far away.
âJunior of the Wardanaz family.â
â!?â
He was walking away. Yukbeltire suddenly stopped and called again. Lee
Han was scared because he thought his true feelings were revealed.
âHuh?
âYou should really decline the offer. Understand?â
ââ¦I understand.â
After that, Yukveltire called Ihan three more times and harassed him before leaving.
Lee Han put Yukbeltyre on his list of people to avoid for a while.
Crazy alter ego
Verdus
Yukveltire
âHmm.â
Lee Han, who was pondering, lifted the quill and changed the order of danger.
Yukveltire
Verdusâs
crazy alter ego
* * *
The lecture on âAdvanced Fantasy Magic and Spiritual Science Theoryâ was a third-year lecture taught by Professor Kirmin Ku.
Originally, this kind of advanced fantasy magic could be taught to second-year students, but the reason for taking this lecture starting from third-year students was because of spiritual body science.
Spiritual body, or soul.
When fantasy magic reaches a certain level, exploration of existence and soul becomes essential.
Low-level illusion magic actually did not require access to the soul.
In some ways, illusion is close to the concept of deceiving the other person, and there is no need for the soul to be involved in the deception.
Even in the case of Farhaiteâs fantasy magic series that Lee Han learned last year, it
was possible to cast it without studying the soul as it distorts vision with the power of flame.
âBut thatâs just a simple thought. For fantasy magic to go beyond a certain level, you need to be able to delve deeper into the soul than wizards from other schools.â
Professor Kirmin wrote fantasy letters on the blackboard.
Sensing the opponentâs soul, recognizing oneâs own soul, expanding and contracting the power of this soul, and directly interfering with the soul to confuse and inflict damage⦠It
was not simply to pursue a higher level of magic.
This approach to souls is essential when casting illusion magic against enemies or monsters with high magic power.
Professor Bolmo said, âIt is several times more difficult to fool a magician above a certain level with fantasy magic than in other fields of magic,â but this
is only half the truth.
âA truly excellent illusion wizard cannot be stopped even if you try. Once you have the experience of sitting in the middle of your workshop sighing, âItâs safe hereâ and having your own shadow change at will, you wonât be able to look down on illusion magic. Iâm Bagreg. âDidnât you tell me the story about how you hit a professor?â
âProfessor. I think Iâve heard that story over a hundred times.â
âHmph. I understand. You just donât have to say anything.â
âno!â
Lee Han glared at his seniors.
They block the opportunity for their juniors to learn just because they heard everything.
I was so angry.
âTsk. Iâm curious. âHow on earth did you get hit?â
If Lee Han knew his weakness, he might be able to use it later when dealing with Professor Boladi.
âEveryone remember the last lecture, right? Letâs continue. Wardanaz, you come to the front here.â
Professor Kirmin called Lee Han aside.
Since I missed the lecture last time, I felt the need to explain it separately.
âWhat those friends are doing right now is practicing contemplating and recognizing the soul. Wardanaz. As I explained just now, you have to start with perception first. This is also harder than you think. Even if you canât do it today, I will understand.â
Even for a wizard, realizing and recognizing oneâs own soul was more difficult than expected.
It is not easy to force a natural sense, like breathing, to become unfamiliar.
So the students started by recognizing the souls of others, not their own.
The seniors in the classroom used various elixirs and magic to amplify and resonate the power of the soul.
Because the enlarged soul has become easier to see.
âFrom now on, Iâm going to go out of body lightly. Wardanaz. Iâm going to spin around and come back, so try to feel the discomfort. Your soul is there now.â
âUh, Professor.â
â?â
âI think I can still do it with soul recognitionâ¦â
â?!â
Professor Kirmin was embarrassed.
âDid Professor Bagrek also make you recognize souls? Even so, isnât that too much??â
âno.â
Lee Han quickly cleared up the misunderstanding.
If I remained silent, Professor Boladi, who had done nothing wrong, but was not at fault in this matter, might be framed.
âThatâsâ¦â
I learned ancient black magic last time, and this black magic is a magic that absorbs other peopleâs pain, and to use it more properly, you have to go deep into the soul⦠It was a
vast and long story, but Professor Kirmin was Einro. As one of the few ârelatively normalâ professors in the Guard, I listened patiently.
If it were someone else, I would have said âWait a minute.â It wouldnât have been strange to ask, âDoes that make sense?â
âhmm.â
Professor Kirmin was beyond surprised when Lee Han learned the magic from the crazy clone of the headmaster and used that magic to heal another cursed wizard, and even went so far as to find his own soul and place a curse to overcome the ordeal. A question suddenly occurred to me.
âThen Wardanaz doesnât need to take this lecture?â
The goal of the first semester of the âAdvanced Fantasy Magic and Spiritual Body Theoryâ lecture was to recognize and become familiar with the spiritual body
⦠In this way, no student learned everything on their own before attending the lecture.
