‘It’s strange.’
Principal Skeleton had a bad temper, and was not an idiot.
You must know that the banquet hall is located in the heart of the city of Granden, but you ignore the possibility that outsiders will be involved and bully the students?
‘…Isn’t this the duke’s enemy, not mine?’
Lee Han glanced at Duke Ikaldoren.
The peacock was waiting with his arms crossed without a change in expression. From that look, I could feel the arrogance that it didn’t matter what came out in the alley.
If he had ever attacked students, he should have been more surprised or reacted differently.
‘You’re a peacock enemy!’
Lee Han regretted inside.
It would be over if I just left it to the duke’s escort, but he intervened for nothing.
‘Anyway, Principal Skeleton is no help.’
Even now, Lee Han called an escort and tried to cooperate.
However, the attack of the enemy in the alley took precedence. The energy that had been growing stronger was refined like a blade, and it came out with life.
* * * *
As Lee Han had guessed, Duke Ikaldoren was not surprised.
Of course, he didn’t know exactly who the opponent was. Duke Ikaldoren was so used to these attacks that he became tired of them.
He had no enemies when it came to being the Duke of the Empire, and among them, this Duke of Kaldoren, who had been active most aggressively, had an enemy from the great noble family to the criminal guild, one by one.
Most enemies do not dare to touch them and lower their tails, but if the number is too large,About two or three times a year, like a regular event, you’re bound to experience this kind of attack.
Of course, this Duke of Karl Doren was not intimidated by his arrogant nature, nor was he careful of his actions.
Instead, he strongly raised his boundaries.
The defense artifacts that the Duke of Ikaldoren is wearing now have a price that easily exceeds the price of dozens of castles, and the escorts standing around have the fighting power to slaughter at least one guild.
It was like a walking fortress, but there was no reason to fear the attack of trivial assassins. What you should be afraid of are the assassins attacking.
So the Duke of Ikaldoren was not really surprised at all.
That is for the attack.
‘It’s amazing!’
The Duke of Ikaldoren tried countless guesses about the meaning of Lee Han’s actions in a short span of time.
Why are you in this situation?
It could be that he wanted to raise his worth in front of his princess Aden Art, or he could be trying to raise his worth in front of this Kaldoren Duke.
‘Or maybe both.’
The peacock weighted the latter.
The behavior that the Wodanaj family boy was showing was very energetic for a freshman. Many geniuses enter the Einroguard, but it is rare to find a genius who has established such a position and built a reputation like that in the first year.
‘I will respect your ambitions. A boy from the Wodanaj family. But there’s one thing I’m missing.’
Having grasped the situation, Duke Ikaldoren noticed a gap in Ihan’s plan.
‘That means you’ll have to handle the raid on your own in the end.’
He couldn’t get the help of the duke’s escort as he went out to stop him like that.
And most of those who want to attack the Duke of Ikaldoren are strong people who have thoroughly prepared in their own way to attack the Duke.
‘You don’t know how strong those who attack this body are. No matter how genius, a freshman. Would it be difficult to deal with the raiders?’
The magic of wizards was so powerful that it was often misunderstood, but the combat power of the wizards was rather lacking than I thought.
Magic is powerful when it’s done, but it’s nothing until it’s done.
Those who knew it well played with the wizards easily. From interrupting spells to interrupting concentration, there are many ways to interrupt magic.
Duke Ikaldoren predicted that it would not be easy for Lee Han to defeat the raiders.
If he said that and received help, the face of the ambitious boy would be greatly damaged, but the Duke was planning to intervene immediately if Lee Han was pushed back.
When Lee Han was seriously injured, he himself became in trouble.
‘Even if you help, don’t blame this body. It’s something you choose for yourself.’
“master. Be careful. It is poison!”
“Stop whining. If you’re really screaming, either your eyes or your brain are broken.”
The duke said to the escort in a hoarse voice. The escort’s face turned red.
If the peacock’s ability to detoxify the artifacts he has now, even if the surrounding area was completely melted with poison, the peacock didn’t hurt a single hair.
In fact, despite the escort’s shout, the duke did not move a single step.
“What kind of monster are you? Not like slime. I think it was summoned with a mixture of spirits and dimensional beasts.”
The duke and escort had a rough idea of the attacker’s identity as soon as he crawled out of the alley.
As he had been attacked so many times, he was able to get an estimate just by looking at his appearance.
Seeing them moving while wriggling with venom in the negative form, they are like slimes, spirits, and dimensional beasts, but they move too fast for a slime…
There was a high possibility that a spirit or dimension beast was tainted with venom or summoned by fusion.All.
Perhaps the raider got the information that the peacock was passing by and summoned that venomous pollutant in time.
After the situation was over, the criminal had to have wizards trace the traces, and now…
‘I’m afraid.’
The Duke of Ikaldoren was arrogant.
The opponent was too bad.
An assassin who uses complex magic or craftsmanship would not know that an enemy who pushed wildly in such a way was impossible to deal with wisely.
It had to be suppressed by force versus force, but the poison emitted by that poisonous pollutant was not enough to kill the peacock, but it could easily melt the surrounding walls. The poison was too strong for a freshman to detoxify.
Besides, it’s not slow or weak, so if a fight breaks out, victory or defeat will be decided by a single clash.
“If you fall, you will be rescued immediately…”
bang!
“?!”
Duke Ikaldoren’s eyes flickered for a long time.
Surprisingly, the boy from the Wodanaj family attacked first!
‘Crazy!!’

No matter how young and arrogant he was, that was insane.
The reason why the poisonous pollutant didn’t attack right away was because there were a lot of other people besides Lee Han here.
It was not at the level of digging a grave on its own, but at the level of weaving a coffin into it.
* * * *
‘thank god!’
Lee Han sighed in relief.
It seemed that the embarrassing situation of having to borrow the help of the duke’s escort could be overcome.
Fortunately, the opponent’s match was very good.
Whoo-
The poisonous pollutant, furious at Lee Han, who suddenly ran and fed him a blow, emitted a thick poison mist.
If it were any other wizard, he would use magic to take control of the poison, but Lee Han left him alone.
As expected, the poison had no significant effect on Lee Han. Even if he breathed, the huge magical power diluted the poison like the ocean.
“Park Mu, spread.”
The precious time earned thanks to the poison resistance was used by Lee Han to cast the newly learned ＜Ogonin’s Light Dance>.
Lee Han’s figure lost focus and wobbled and shook. The Venomous Pollutant was greatly puzzled by the incomprehensible sequence of events.
If the opponent is a cold-hearted and seasoned enemy, such a summoned creature may have excellent physical abilities, but was weak against such a sudden situation. Lee Han immediately cast the next spell.
“Bone, seize the enemy.”
It wasn’t a strong force, but it was enough to hinder the movement of the poisonous pollutant.
Many times faster than other normal wizards, bone restraints were created from the ankles of the venomous taint.
“Shoot!”
Sharp bone fragments were lodged in the body of the poisonous pollutant like bullets.
It wasn’t a fatal wound, not a normal structure, but the pain didn’t go anywhere. The Venomous Contaminant howled and fired venom around it.
Chewy profit!
‘Ugh.’
Lee Han clicked his tongue as he looked at the melting cloak and clothes. Fortunately, he didn’t buy with his own money, but with his family’s money.
‘I have to be careful.’
If this Kaldo Ren had heard Lee Han’s heart, he would have been astonished.
In the midst of such a bloody fight, he wasn’t worried about his life, he was worried about his clothes.
‘It’s not like the king of ghouls has extraordinary defense or evasion. I can keep the body as it is, and just add damage.’
After completing his calculations, Lee Han took action immediately.
Summons a phantom clone, casts invisibility magic, bypasses backwards, and fires after casting 5-strength magic on an iron bead!
puck!
The movement was so quick without hesitation that the reaction of the duke’s escorts was delayed by half a beat.
The escorts are their exampleI was shocked to see Lee Han jumping over the prize and casting magic in a row much faster.
How could a freshman cast magic at that speed, even in a row in a fierce battle?
It was a humiliation for the escorts who should not be surprised by predicting and preparing for any situation in advance.
“I knocked him down. Be sure to finish it!”
In his heart, he wanted to set the fire himself, but Lee Han called the escorts because he was afraid that a fire would spread around him or that something unexpected would happen because he reacted with him.
As if waiting, the escorts drew their swords and swung them.
As the flaming sword exploded, the poisonous pollutant, which had already been immobilized due to a critical hit in the chest, was enveloped in blue flames.
The magic flame burned the poison in an instant and even swallowed up the pollutants. When Lee Han saw the swords the escorts were holding, he cursed inside.
‘Did you just watch with those artifacts?’
Of course, it took a long time for Lee Han to deal with him, but couldn’t he help a little?
I’m not even a narrow-minded person that Lee Han is scolding for that!
“Wow… that’s great.”
Duke Ikaldoren said, belatedly adjusting his expression to the unexpected situation.
Rowena felt pleasure at the sight. It was the first time that the duke, who had always acted arrogantly without changing his expression, showed such a reaction.
“I didn’t know I was going to give the ball to my escorts.”
‘ah.’
Lee Han realized the meaning of the duke’s words belatedly.
Originally, there was a big difference between ‘Lee Han caught alone’ and ‘Lee Han and the duke’s escort caught it together’ in this achievement. And everyone liked to read.
But Ian didn’t care.
‘I’m not even a bounty guy. It doesn’t matter.’
It’s not like we’re sharing the bounty, but sharing some balls doesn’t change anything.
After all, the case is not the duke’s. If you were to be punished for yielding to your own escort, it was not a duke, but a mischief.
“I thought that the ball was not important, but that the priority should be to quickly subdue that enemy and secure the safety of the surroundings.”
His friends gave a moving applause, but this Duke of Kaldorren was not deceived.
There’s no way an ambitious guy like that can’t make concessions for that reason.
That was a signal to the duke.
-I am as ambitious as you are. We’ll be able to deal with ambitious people like us.
Duke Ikaldoren felt like he could hear Lee Han speaking like that.
Other than that, there was no reason to be sympathetic.
How ambitious people get to know each other.
Age didn’t matter.
The Duke of Ikaldoren raised his opponent not merely as a gifted freshman, but as a young ambitious who deserves to sit equally across the table.
“…I understand. Suggestion, let’s think positively.”
not bad.
The Duke of Ikaldoren also had to obtain information from within the School of Magic.
I don’t know what kind of ambition the boy of the Wodanaj family has, but a mutually beneficial deal will be possible.
“…no. The peacock! Before the peacock… what kind of guy is that??”
Lee Han muttered at the back of the duke as he was moving away, but Rowena pretended not to hear Lee Han swearing at the duke.
