‘Ah. What mistake have I made?’
Lee Han regretted the answer.
The words came out earlier than I thought whether the tiredness had yet to be relieved.
Have you ever worked as a professor?
Such insulting words…
– I’m not that wise.
The giant answered with a bit of embarrassment.
“…ah. okay.”
Fortunately, it passed without any problems.
“All right. Would you like to play another chess then?”
What if your partner is a bit like a professor?
With the grace that saved him, Lee Han decided to respect the other person even if they were a little forceful.
…and he looked a bit too strong.
-no. The bets should be fair to each other.
“There is no other game that is as fair as chess…”
The giant pretended not to hear Lee Han and ignored him.
– I’ll have to find another bet. what would be good
“…I think I got it wrong.”
Lee Han whispered to Giselle. Giselle nodded slightly as if in agreement.
“Is there no way to suppress it?”
“Morady. Can’t you see that size?”
Lee Han was absurd.
Asking if there is a way to subdue such a powerful giant.
Are you just telling me to die?
“The King of the Frost Giants was bigger, but he attacked.”
“…So why did you move the look earlier?”
Lee Han, who was speechless, turned the topic cowardly. Giselle was left speechless by the fatal attack.
“You mean now…?!”
-What’s better… Gyeokgu doesn’t match the numbers, I did the riddle last time… Drinking showdown…
Giselle listened quietly, but couldn’t stand it, and shot sharply.
“How can such a drinking showdown be a fair match if you say your bet should be fair?”
– There seems to be a misunderstanding. It’s not about drinking a lot.
“then?”
-Alchemists would bet it often, but I’m still a freshman, so I don’t know.
The giant kindly explained to me what a drinking contest was.
When the confrontation began, the alchemists used various ingredients and potions to create their own drink and handed it over to the opponent.
The alchemist who received the drink had to make a new drink and pass it back to the other person after drinking it.
-If you do that and fall down first, you lose.
“…for a moment. It’s not alcohol, it’s a potion, right?”
Hearing the explanation, Lee Han stopped.
If you make it using ingredients and potions, isn’t it a potion after all?
-right? it’s a parable And like I said, if you think it’s unfair, you don’t have to take it.
“Uh… no. From what I hear, it sounds like a good thing.”
– Really?
The giant looked at Lee Han as if wondering.
In fact, as the student next to Lee Han said, this confrontation was advantageous to the giant.
Magicians who deal with magical powers have strong resistance to potions, but giants have a stronger innate resistance than that.
-Give me a chance to choose again.
“no. Even though I look like this, I took the first place in an alchemy class.”
“……”
-……
What to say about Giselle and the GiantI looked at Lee Han with a look of not knowing.
‘Wordanaj bastard… are you not awake yet?’
-Well. Just because I won the top class in my first year lectures doesn’t mean I learned everything about alchemy.
The giant said worriedly.
Of course, Lee Han’s intentions were elsewhere.
‘If I fight with resistance, I will never be pushed.’
As much as he had experienced it a few times, Lee Han was confident.
Enormous magical power means enormous resistance.
However, if the opponent found out about this, the betting event could change. Lee Han tried to look like a stupid first-year student as much as possible.
‘It reminds me of Gainando.’
“A genius like me can learn almost everything just by listening to a first-year lecture. What are you going to study for?”
“……”
-…that, yes. Right. Okay. Still, it’s an objectively unfavorable bet… If you win, I’ll give you another reward. You can take anything you want from my house.
“!”
Ian’s eyes twinkled.
‘…no. It’s not that good.’
When I first heard it, I was like, ‘What?’, but when I looked around, I was like, ‘Uh…’.
The giant’s house was more frugal and messy than expected.
Even if Lee Han whined and took something like a large rusty weapon…
“hey.”
Giselle couldn’t stand it and whispered while stabbing Lee Han’s side.
He tried to keep his expression on his face as much as he could, but he couldn’t take it any longer.
“Are you doing this on purpose? Why are you doing this?”
Lee Han tried to tell the story, but put it off in case the giant could hear it.
“Morady. who am i I am a genius on a different level than other geniuses.”
“……”
Giselle seemed to be in awe.
* * * *
The giant certainly had a knack for alchemy.
He rummaged through the clutter and rubbish, taking out and pouring anything he could, without any blockage in his movement.
Even though Gainando’s private room looked like a garbage dump, just as Gainando himself had his own order, it was clear that the Giant’s Cave did the same.
Of course, this all worked against Lee Han.
An alchemist who knows all the ingredients, and an alchemist who has to make it urgently in an unfamiliar place.

Needless to say which one would have the advantage.
‘Should I throw it away?’
Giselle thought quietly.

No matter how much he thought about it, it was unlikely that Woudanaz would win.
And above all else, I’m very anxious about what I’m doing right now…
thud!
– That’s it! I call this ＜Giant’s Honey Wine>.
After an hour, the giant finally completed the potion.
“May I ask for the recipe?”
In the midst of this, Lee Han-eun asked a question, wondering if there would be anything to write about later. Giselle’s laughter didn’t have enough left to disappear.
– I can’t tell you everything, but I’ll tell you briefly. Honey and rose petals. Sleeping grass and the blood of the two heads. Mud from acid swamps. Can you get a sense of it just by listening to this?
“…ah. Yes.”

No matter how you look at it, Lee Han’s expression trembled at the poisons that were far from alcohol.
At this point, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was not ＜giant’s honey drink> but ＜giant’s medicine>.
‘Believe.’
Lee Han thought so and drank a large glass.
gulp, gulp-
Surprisingly, the honey wine tasted better than expected. The sweet and cool taste flowed down my throat no matter how I put it together.
And at the same time, a great drowsiness was about to burst out of his body.
“!”
It was completely different from the abnormal state he had ever experienced.
The previous status abnormalities had been nullified before Lee Han was even aware of it…’Right. I drank the potion myself…!’

Naturally, the power of the potion he drank was stronger than the power of an external attack. Lee Han concentrated his mind and raised the magic of his body.
A huge flow of magical power suppressed the drowsiness brought on by the honey drink and put out the fire.
once.
twice.
count…
‘uh? Are you done?’
Lee Han, who was nervous, was slightly embarrassed when the influence of his honey alcohol disappeared in an instant.
He was nervous because he suddenly came up, but it ended much easier than I thought.
‘Ugh. I feel like I lost because I was scared.’
It was probably a potion that staked everything in the initial effect. Beyond that, the effect isn’t that strong.
Lee Han opened his mouth, thinking that he would cry tears of humiliation if the giant knew.
“Then it’s my turn.”
-……
The giant rolled his eyes and looked Lee Han up and down.
He was so embarrassed that he couldn’t even answer, just nod his head.
‘how!?’
I couldn’t believe it.
How can he be so healthy even after drinking the ＜Giant’s Honey Liquor> he made himself?
That student isn’t even an undead or a wizard with dragon-like magical powers…
There was only one reason that made sense.
He made and drank an antidote that could withstand ＜Giant’s Honey Wine> in advance.
‘Is there no way that the level of the students at the Magic School has risen so much?’
But it was equally surprising.
A first-year student sees a potion for the first time and prepares an antidote right away. It was also in an unfamiliar place, not in his own workshop.
The giant remembered what Lee Han had said.
-no. Even though I look like this, I took the first place in alchemy lectures.
-A genius like me can learn almost everything just by listening to a first-year lecture. What do you study for?
At first, I thought it was a childish horse from a young student, but when the situation turned like this, my spine shivered.
If arrogance is also proven with results, it is not arrogance, but reasonable confidence.
Probably, the best alchemist I’ve ever seen…
“It’s done.”
-What!?
“What!?”

Not only the giant but also Giselle was astonished.
I don’t think I wrote it in ten minutes, but I’m done already?
“Wordanaz. If you have any complaints, tell me! Don’t be stupid like my top bastards! Because it seems like I’m going back!”
Giselle eventually exploded and grabbed her by the neck. Ian thought about it.
‘The White Tiger Tower students seem to give me a lot of stress.’
– It has already been declared and cannot be undone. What is the name of this drink?
“Uh… I think it’s a drug that puts the giant to sleep.”
– That’s an honest name. where to drink
The giant laughed confidently and drank the pot whole.
And then his expression changed.
-…!!!
Suddenly, an unbearable drowsiness began to creep in.
He was resisting as much as he could, but instinct was speaking.
I can’t stand it for a while and I’m going to fall asleep.
The giant staggered and looked at Lee Han. Then he said in a stuttering voice.
-I thought he was such a genius…! Yes… your name is…?
“This is Moradi.”
“Not me. You asked.”
Giselle looked at Lee Han as if she was talking about something.
It seemed that he was less tired.
“Ah. It did. This is Lee Han of the Wodanaj family.”
-Right. I am Ikurusha. This is the giant Ikurusha.
When Lee Han asked for his name earlier, the giant turned away.
Originally, a giant would not reveal his name to an unacknowledged opponent.
Although he changed the topic in consideration of the pride of the wizard…
…A genius of this level deserved to be known.
-…Yes… Victory… What you want… One… Take… Go.
thud!
With the snoring that shook the cave, Ikurusha fell backwards.
Lee Han sighed in relief.
“Thank you. Bartrek.”
An elixir that puts the giant to sleep, which the White Tiger Tower students worked hard in their hiding place.
I thought the students had made it right, but I was nervous that it might not work.
“Batrek of the Bark family? Why is that name coming up now?”
“It’s the potion he made.”
Lee Han took out a potion bottle from his pocket and waved it in response.
“…!!!!”
Giselle scolded herself for thinking, “To make such a powerful potion in less than ten minutes, that’s an incredible talent!”
Such a scammer…!
“ah. Sorry for not explaining in advance. I was afraid that Ikurusha-san would hear it and change the betting sport.”
“…let’s go out.”
Giselle didn’t have the energy to be angry any more.
“for a moment. We won the bet, so let’s take the reward.”
“Is there something you crave…?”
Giselle asked with a frown. No matter how you look at it, there seemed to be no useful treasure in this mess.
Scratch!
Lee Han cut off the tip of the sleeping giant’s hair.
I’ve been thinking about it since the story came out.
“This is the end of one final exam.”
“You… you’re crazy than me…”
“Why are you swearing all of a sudden?”
