“I thought my seniors had made concessions in this way, too.”
“What did you think of me, junior?”
“No… otherwise, there is no reason to yield. We were all chasing it.”
“It’s also Lee Han.”
Guy Nando nodded his head as if he knew it.
It was Gainando’s friend who didn’t just lose a slice of bread.
“Junior. It’s good to be astute, but if you’re too vicious, bad rumors about the Warlock can arise.”
“But, old man. Warlocks are already bad news, aren’t they?”
“……”
After being hit by a junior, Dirett’s wings drooped slightly.
Gainando whispered beside him.
“Why are you talking like that! People you don’t know do that!”
“no. A lot of people would say that.”
“…really?”
“really. Why would the people who were caught and dragged over there passed by and argued with them?”
“!”
“I, we repented.”
Two adventurers who got beaten after taking one wrong step, worked chores in the cemetery, and then pursued the undead chimera.
It could be said that they were the most ferocious of Iljin today.
“senior. There is nothing to be sad about. Those who know the truth will not be deceived.”
“…what good is it if everyone else thinks it’s bad?”
“We can change it.”
Dirette’s eyes fluttered slightly at the junior’s enterprising remarks.
I certainly didn’t know if what my junior was saying was right.
As if you were dedicated to the city today, even if others doubt you, if you continue to build up your achievements, people’s eyes will change little by little, even if not immediately.
‘How can you hear something like this from your juniors? I should have done it.’
Dirett was shy as a senior.
“That’s right. Junior.”
“Thank you for your understanding. senior. If we see anyone talking nonsense about black magic in the future, let’s step on it like them.”
“…no!! I didn’t mean it that way!!!”
“Isn’t it?”
Dirett was terrified at the words of a belligerent junior that even magic duelists would utter.
Every time you meet bullshit, you attack and change your mind, what is that…
bang!
with a roarTwo dampers flew into the air.
The cornered undead chimera exploded from its body and broke through the siege.
When the siege was broken, the apprentice knights shouted in surprise.
“He is running away!!!”
“Careful heh… Ah!! Wodanaz! It’s Wodanaj! Wodanaj!!”
“What?! Wodanaj!? That Wodanaj?”
“okay! That Wodanaj!”
“……”
When the apprentice knights who had visited the school the other day recognized Lee Han’s face and pretended to be friendly, Lee Han made a confused expression.
‘We’re not that close.’
Anyone who sees it would know that they are quite friendly.
“Wordanaz! Catch him!! If he runs away…”
Even before the apprentice knights asked for it, Lee Han had already started preparing with a staff.
After that, I couldn’t let the undead chimera run away.
-■■■■…!
The undead chimera stared at Lee Han with a creaking sound. Nine eyes flickered and stared at Lee Han.
His eyes were full of vigilance because of what had been done harshly earlier. He somehow felt that he was going to find a gap in Lee Han and run away.
“Dark. Gather here.”
Lee Han did not fire lightning magic hastily.
There were also apprentice knights behind him, so it wasn’t a good environment to shoot, and he was very wary.
The advantage of a wizard is that he can respond flexibly to any situation.
As much as he learned how to deal with Dirette, Lee Han gathered the dark elements around him.
-■!
The undead chimera didn’t know what Lee Han was doing, but seemed to feel the power draining away.
She quickly jumped back and tried to widen the distance.
-■■■■!?
But to no avail.
‘The range is…!’
Among them, Dirett, the only warlock capable of wielding dark elemental magic, knew what was going on.
That junior’s magic was attracting dark elements in a much wider range than Dirett did.
‘…awesome!’
While admiring the magic of his junior, Lee Han cried out in a hurry.
“senior!”
“uh? why?”
“A little bit of the dark element has gathered! Help me if I make a mistake!”
“…hey!”
Dirett screamed as she saw the spheres of dark elements gathered at the tip of Lee Han’s staff.
At first glance, it was two or three times the size of the previous cast.
It was cast against a very wide range, so even though it took a shorter time than before, it gathered as much as I did in an instant.
“What are you going to do?!”
Even if you try to fire with a projectile, you have to have some control, but if you fire it forcibly now, it could explode at the tip of the staff and injure your juniors.
Dirett couldn’t understand how Lee Han was trying to deal with that dark element.
Whoops!
“……”
Lee Han solved it in a simpler and simpler way than expected.
He rushed in with his wand and inserted a sphere into the undead chimera. In the blink of an eye, the undead chimera could not avoid it.
-■■■?
Dirette was perplexed.
‘Wait, dark elements are counterproductive against the undead…!’
Lee Han threw his staff aside and drew his sword.
The morning star flashed a sword and split the body of the undead chimera.
In the first place, the dark elements were brought in to slow down the opponent’s movement and bind their feet.
There were several ways to smash the opponent once that was achieved.
A powerful strike, powered by the explosive magical power, struck the undead chimera, and the suction sword that followed it broke the balance.
Balls in a row without a breakAfter the blow was blown, the head was cut off, and cheers erupted.
“After all, Wodanaj!”
“excellent!! That sword spirit is still there!”
“friend?”
Lee Han answered Dirett’s question firmly.
“Not friends.”
* * * *
Wikelinz, who came out late, thanked Lee Han.
“Thank you. The mistakes of the young knights almost made things worse, but to help.”
“I just did what I had to do.”
“indeed…”
Wikelinz continued speaking in a slightly impressed voice.
“There are people who are prejudiced and misunderstood because of the magic of warlocks, but when you see warlocks who are so dedicated day and night here, you wouldn’t dare say that!”
“thank you.”
Lee Han replied that way, but he had a different thought in his mind.
‘But other warlocks have too many accidents.’
Even if Lee Han caught the undead that came out of the city for a hundred days, it seemed to be of no use if the warlocks went into the tomb and were caught stealing the corpse.
Al-Adne, who came out late, saw the situation in front of the mansion and asked, bewildered.
“How did things go?”
“Wordanaj-sama caught you.”
The governor of the mansion answered with a little regret.
“If it had been caught by the guests of the mansion rather than from outside, Greenbell-sama would have gained a little more face.”
“……”
Knowing that after his guests had left, he shifted his gaze, thinking that he should give the general a rebuke.
The undead chimera was definitely smashed. There were traces of being hit by several spells, there were swords that seemed to have been wielded by apprentice knights, and the fatal blow was…
“???”
I know, he thought he was wrong.
‘I think I caught it with a sword…?’
He wondered if he had seen it wrong, so when he looked again, nothing had changed. He apparently took his breath away with the sword.
Al-Adne was confused because the apprentice knights and warlocks gathered here wanted to deceive him.
Any reason to cheat?
“Mr. Greenbell. Thank you for the favor.”
“no. You did this for the city of Granden, and I’m sorry that I couldn’t help you more.”
‘You’re too kind.’
Lee Han was puzzled by Adne’s attitude.
Thorough and thorough, apart from the rumors circulating, it was overly favorable.
Is it really because of the Wodanaj family name?
‘Anyway, why do you have to do this?’
Ian couldn’t even imagine.
I know that Adne is mistaken for Lee Han as an ambitious person.
‘Anyway, I should be grateful for your help.’
Lee Han greeted him politely once again and walked to another place. Apprentice knights who knew Lee Han came rushing in.
Seeing this, Al-Adne asked Wikelinz.
“Is a student from the Wodanaj family friendly with the Knights Templar’s apprentice knights?”
“ah. That was the last time I visited Einrogarde. As for what happened…”
Wikelinz began to unpack the story as if it was going well.
It’s always a pleasure to meet a great prosecutor.
So Wickelinz did not notice that Al-Adne’s expression, who was listening to the story, was tinged with astonishment and absurdity.
* * * *
-Wordanaz. He heard that he had captured the king of ghouls. But do you know? The White Tiger Tower guys are actually plants in the greenhouse.
-right. Wodanaz. What is truly strong is the wild flower that blooms harshly in the wild wild.
-So, let’s go catch the king of ghouls together!
‘It’s full of crazy people.’
Recalling the conversations of apprentice knightsLee Han shook his head.
It must have been strange to hear that the White Tiger Tower guys and Lee Han had subjugated the Ghoul King, so the apprentice knights were on fire.
However, I can’t take the White Tiger Towers, my rivals, as wizards…
The apprentice knights wanted to take with them a friend who was a far superior wizard and a sword.
Of course, from Lee Han’s point of view, it was nothing but crazy bullshit. Lee Han immediately complained.
– Mr. Wickellinz. The apprentice knights over there are plotting to capture an enemy stronger than their level.
-then…! these guys!
It was fortunate that Wikelinz was sane. Otherwise, the apprentice knights could have collapsed in a remote cave with unknown names.
Dirette asked as if worried about Lee Han’s appearance.
“Are you okay, mate? After all, due to the use of magic earlier, the lack of magic power…”
“ah. no. It’s just that the apprentice drivers are talking nonsense.”
“……”
Dirett decided not to worry about magic about this junior in the future.
Returning to the cemetery, I saw a familiar face among the gravekeepers.
It was Daihal of the Dalcard family, an Imperial special administrator whom I had met in the case of subjugating the king of ghouls last time.
“I really hoped…!”
When Daihal saw Lee Han, he said in awe.
“It’s been less than a week, but you’re getting involved in something like this. Aren’t you being too generous?”
“Junior. What did you do a week ago?”
Dirett was puzzled. He hadn’t heard of the ghoul king yet.
Lee Han looked around the cemetery once and then quickly shook his head.
And he knelt down on one knee.
“Ugh. I used so much magic that my body…”
“What did you say? No matter how talented you are, if you can’t take care of your body, it’s meaningless.”
“Ha, but… As a warlock… Undead roaming the city of Granden… Kolok. Cole.”
Dirett and Lee Han’s friends were speechless and looked at Lee Han.
I couldn’t believe it when I saw my friend, who had not been sweating until recently, staggered through the cemetery’s main gate.
Ymirg whispered.
“The grave… is there poison in the graveyard?”
“Isn’t Lee Han going to be poisoned?”
“What… ah. no way.”
While the three whispered, Lee Han pretended to be even harder in front of Daihal.
I have realized something since the last time I subjugated the king of ghouls.
Even if you do the same thing, it’s good to say that you worked hard as much as possible!
It was a magic that easily increased the reward.
“I would have died if this senior didn’t help me…”
“That is Dirett. I’ve heard a lot about the gravekeepers.”
“I just do what I have to do…”
“To these dedicated warlocks… the people of the city are too harsh. I will say it strongly.”
“No, the pay is already good enough…”
“Kul Kul K K K K K L K L K L K L K K L K K L K K L K K L K K K L K K L K K L K K L K!”
Lee Han interrupted the old man’s words with a cough.
