Episode 877
Professor Passelette looked at Lee Han as if asking what he was talking about.
The purpose of this midterm exam was to teach students how to use and have them look for stars.
Because it was such a difficult artifact, just knowing how to use it was enough for the test.
Lee Han spoke in a calm manner.
âI heard that signing a contract with a star is not as difficult as you think. Instead of talking, persuading, trading, or threatening like spirits or demons, explore, recognize, and then prove your qualifications according to the rulesâ¦â
âDid you read a strange old book somewhere?â
Professor Passelette looked at him quizzically when the bright senior in his grade said something strange.
Even originally intelligent wizards could sometimes say nonsense. This was the case when someone was so brilliant that they fell into madness while holding onto a forbidden book that no one else would read.
What the boy from the Wardanaz family was saying was not crazy, but it seemed like he was halfway there.
It was difficult to sign a contract with a star.
Finding the star, or at least learning how to use , was difficult.
And even more so, finding the rules of that star and proving your qualificationsâ¦
âDo you understand?â
âyes.â
Lee Han nodded his head and suddenly ran to the window and shouted loudly.
It was difficult for him to hear, but he could hear words like âKing Yakshaâ and âson of a bitchâ mixed in with the shouts.
â!?â
â???!â
Not only Professor Passelette but also the other professors looked at Lee Han in surprise. Professor Bendozol was suspicious of Professor Verdus.
âIsnât it because youâre upset so much?â
âWhen did I?â
âIt seems suspicious.â
Professor Passelette agreed with Bendozol.
How much must Professor Verdus have been upset while his student was looking for the artifact? That was something that could be known without using precognition magic.
âOh.â
Professor Passelette, who was checking , discovered a stigmata left inside. It was the remnants of intense star power.
If you didnât use this artifact to contract with a star, itâs a remnant that has no reason to exist!
âDid you use an artifact by any chance?â
Lee Han, who was shouting out the window, suddenly stopped and came back. And then he silently nodded his head.
âDid you find a star?â
Nod again.
ââ¦Surely thereâs a contract?â
Nod again.
Professor Passelette looked at his student curiously.
Why does a guy with incredible talent do something dangerous when no one tells him to?
Maybe that was the fate of those called geniuses.
* * *
The three professors sat down and began a brief lecture.
Thereâs nothing to say since Iâve already found a star and signed a contract, but I still had to warn them of some precautions.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou have to be careful about the asteroid group.â
Professor Verdus said while gnawing on birch bark.
âIf you approach to sign a contract because it looks like a bunch of stars, you could get seriously hurt.â
The asteroid group was an easy trap for wizards trying to make contracts with stars.
At first glance, it seemed like a powerful star, but if you approached it, you would have suffered great damage from the irregular clusters that were divided into small pieces.
âYes⦠Iâve met him too.â
ââ¦â¦â
ââ¦â¦â
Professor Passelette and Professor Bendozolâs expressions hardened. Professor Verdus asked, puzzled.
âThen is there a need to learn like this?â
âNo one asked you to give your opinion.â
âQuiet. Professor Verdus.â
Professor Verdus fell silent again.
I donât know why, but the other two professors seemed uncomfortable. They were truly emotional people.
âThen⦠you have to be careful about the dark nebula too. âYou can swallow a wizardâs soul just by looking at himâ¦â
âyes. âI saw that too.â
ââ¦â¦â
ââ¦â¦â
I wondered what kind of old book Professor Passelette had been reading and following, and he had even seen a group of asteroids and a dark nebula.
Could it be that the title of the grimoire is âHow to Destroy Yourself Among the Starsâ?
Jo Woo-rin tilted his head.
I donât think Lee Han has anything to learnâ¦
âno. Dragon! âI didnât say it, but detecting stars requires mastering all kinds of laws and principles!â
Bendozol, who did not want to be an incompetent professor in front of the dragon, reacted sensitively.
âI was planning to explain them one by one from now on. ruler! Do you know about the law of preemption?!â
âyes.â
âWhy do you know!â
Professor Passelette just gave up and vowed to explain how to operate .
* * *
âLike this, if you operate it in this direction, the direction of the soulâs vision will move accordingly. Since stars move quickly, some level of prediction is essential. Even if does it, a lot of it still requires the wizard to know how to use foresight magic.â
âindeed.â
âThis week is the week when the elemental star is closest to the continent. âHave you seen the spirit castle?â
âyes.â
âah. âDid you make a contract with the Spirit Castle?!â
âNo⦠he was rejecting me.â
ââ¦â¦â
ââ¦â¦â
In an instant, the atmosphere of the place became awkward. It was extremely rare for the Spirituality to refuse, fearing that they would ignore it.
Eandurde, who was alone in not understanding, asked.
âWhy do the stars refuse?â
Shh. Eandurde. There are bad stars too.
âItâs so powerful that the spirits might hate it. I guess thatâs what led to the spiritâs rejection.â
Professor Verdus nodded his head as if he knew for himself. Lee Han glanced at him.
âWell⦠it already happened in the past. What else should I teach you? âThen what star did you sign with?â
âI heard it was Arna, a guest star.â
A few times today, the conversation stopped and there was an awkward atmosphere, but it was never as heavy and shocking as it is now.
Professor Passelette and Professor Bendozol looked at Lee Han with their faces distorted in astonishment. Even Professor Verdus dropped his bark.
ââ¦Have I made a dangerous contract?â
âItâs just dangerous for a second-year student to sign with a star. Rather⦠um⦠itâs not a doomsday prophecyâ¦â
âArna⦠um⦠itâs not fate⦠itâs like superstition. Superstitions are part of prophecy, butâ¦â
âIt doesnât help at all.â
Even after persistent questioning, the professors did not tell us anything.
Lee Han guessed that the fate of the wizards who signed a contract with Arna was generally not good.
Well, it was the star that Principal Skull had contracted withâ¦
âThatâs terrible. âI think youâre a star who could become the principal of Einrogard if you sign a contract.â
âah. for a moment. Lastly, I need to teach you how to use this artifact.â
Professor Passelette called out to Lee Han, who was trying to get up.
âwhat is that?â
âI recommend using this artifact for just a few minutes a day. âLooking at the sea of stars is more consuming than you think.â
ââ¦â¦â
Shouldnât that be put as a caution in front of the artifact?
* * *
Jo Woo-rin, who was watching Lee Han, who had returned to the tower, asked quietly.
Lee Han?
âyes. majesty?â
Are you taking the exam first because of Jo Woo-rin?
It was natural for Jo Woo-rin to notice.
Originally, the exam was postponed until the day before and then studied hastily to take it (I had a slightly distorted view of it since I learned it from books), but it wasnât that they went to the exam a week in advance and wrote a perfect final exam and gave it to me.
However, since Lee Han kept finishing the next weekâs test in advance, Jo Woo-rin couldnât help but worry.
From what Iâve heard, I donât think it was like that last yearâ¦
Lee Han immediately responded to the clever dragonâs reasonable guess.
âWhat nonsense are you talking about, Your Majesty?!â
âOops. âThis is a big deal.â
Lee Han was astonished to feel that he was increasingly treating Jo Woo-rin like Gai Nan-do.
If he continued like this, he might one day be accused in the imperial court of insulting the royal family.
âsorry. âI was embarrassed and said what I usually say to my friends.â
no! Itâs good for Jo Woo-rin to speak to his friends the same way he usually speaks to his friends!
Joe Urin flapped his wings and his eyes lit up.
I was a little disappointed because Lee Hanâs attitude towards his friends was different from that towards Jo Woo-ri, but then an opportunity presented itself.
âno. Still, since your Majestyâs status is yours, you must be polite.â
no! no! no!
Joe Urin made a fuss by rolling to his left and right.
As he rolled with the size of a dragon, the furniture in the Blue Dragon Tower lounge shattered with a crashing sound. Gainando, who was playing wizard cards in the corner, let out a scream as his long-awaited victory was lost.
Joourin commands! Wardanaz should treat Jo Wulin like he usually treats his friends!
âUhm⦠if you really want thatâ¦â
Jo Woo-rinâs face brightened. Lee Han spoke honestly.
âThen stop talking nonsense.â
â¦â¦
âAfter all, wouldnât it be better to be politeâ¦â
no! Jo Woo-rin is completely fine!
Eandurde thought there was a hint of dew in the corner of Joâurinâs eyes, but he only thought to himself.
It was a kind of friendship towards a large dragon friend.
âMore than that, Your Highness. âIâm not intentionally taking the test first.â
âIs that so??â
Not only Jourin but also Eandurde was surprised.
ââ¦Why are you surprised?â
âof courseâ¦â
Ean Durde folded his fingers one by one and counted them.
, , , â¦
There were too many to be coincidences, so Eandurde naturally thought that this iron man had planned perfectly and finished the exam in advance.
âIt was an accident.â
âHmmâ¦â
Hmmâ¦
âDid they put the two together for no reason?â
By putting two young people together, it felt like they were only learning to doubt each other.
-Hmmâ¦
ââ¦Arenât you scared anymore?â
Lee Han spoke to the baby basilisk in his sleeve. Like a dragon with bright ears, Jo Lin stared into his sleeve.
I think I just heard the voice of a baby basilisk.
-Lord Juju, Iâm so scared!
âThen why did you say thatâ¦â
and!
Jo Woo-rin, who found the baby basilisk, was happy and rushed at it.
-master. I was wrong! help! Heyâ¦
So cute!
While Jo Woo-rin cuddled and played with the baby basilisk for a while, Lee Han took care of the remaining tasks.
âThe real test has been reduced.â
âWardanaz. âThe paper is leaking.â
âIsnât this the paper bird that Professor Verdus sent you?â
âIf that was the case, of course we would have shot it down!â
A friend of the Blue Dragon Tower passed by with a smile as if asking what he meant by people.
Lee Han felt relieved and checked the paper bird. It was a paper bird sent by club seniors.
I heard you took the test for in advance? Congratulations. Could you please tell me if you are planning to take the test in advance?
Are you planning to take the test in advance, junior? If so, please tell meâ¦
â¦
ââ¦â¦â
The contents of the letters were all similar.
I need to help study for a test for a junior member of the club. If you want to take it further in advance, please let me know so I can save you the trouble of organizing it furtherâ¦
âIsnât that too much?â
Lee Han grumbled at Einrogardâs coldness.
If your junior is taking another exam in advance, ask them if itâs okay and not to worry or overdo it. Also, tell them if thereâs anything to take in advance!
âGentlemen. âAre there any Wardanaz students?â
âProfessor, it depends on the purpose of your visit, right?â
A familiar voice was heard from the front door of the lounge.
It was Professor George Rzik of the Ben Malfa family, with his stylish chevron mustache.
A friend who didnât know Professor Djorjic very well asked in confusion.
âWardanaz. âWhat kind of person is that professor?â
âIâm not a bad person. âPlease take good care of your students.â
âohâ¦â
âAnd youâre looking to be the next principal.â
After hearing Lee Hanâs answer, the Blue Dragon Tower student was disgusted and ran upstairs.
âYouâre a completely crazy professor!â
