“Okay, you’re wrong.no? I don’t think it’s in school…”
Unfortunately, Yonner did not accept reality. Lee Han said with a bitter expression.
“It’s school. It’s a punishment room.”
“…?!?”
There were freshmen who had been there, but for most students, the punishment room was only a rumor.
-If you get an F in 3 subjects, you will be dragged to the punishment room throughout the vacation.
-I heard that up to 10 people from the back of the midterm exam are taken to the punishment room?
-This is a rumor, but some of the seniors failed an experiment and were taken to the punishment room.
-If you get caught trying to escape from school, you’ll be taken to the punishment room, isn’t it a lie?
It was felt that most of them were lies, but the original rumors are bound to contain some truth.
shudder!
“!”
It was Lee Han, who grabbed the doorknob of the private room worriedly, but soon it was revealed that it was nothing to worry about.
Surprisingly, the door to the room where the two were located was open.
‘The punishment room is the punishment room…’
Lee Han realized that this punishment room was now unused.
The hallway that came out was full of dust and cobwebs, and the private rooms on either side were all empty and open.
“Looks like it’s not used now.”
“It’s not very comforting.”
Yoner muttered in a frightened voice.
The punishment room without people was more terrifying than the punishment room with people.
Better to have someone…
“It was quite difficult to find the way to the punishment room, but it got me in trouble.”
“How do you know… ah.”
Yoner looked at Lee Han with an apologetic expression. He knew that Lee Han had been to the punishment room.
“It wasn’t as bad an experience as I thought it would be.”
“Isn’t the principal threatening you?”
“yes. In the future, if the principal threatens me and says something, I will put ‘I swear’ in front of it.”
“That’s a good idea.”
After confirming, the two walked to the end of the hallway.
But there were no stairs.
“…???”
“????”
There is only a solid brick wall located.
Confused, Lee Han looked back. There was no other passage on the other side. He had to go this way.
‘this…’
Lee Han sensed what had happened to him. He had only been at the magic school for a few weeks, but Lee Han had already adjusted to the bone.
‘A magical passageway.’
Just like what he experienced when he tried to escape to the underground warehouse last time, the way was covered by magic.
There were two ways.
to find or forcibly pierce.
Lee Han took out a piece of charcoal powder wrapped in paper from his pocket. Yoner asked as if puzzled.
“What is that?”
“I made it with Ratford in case we need it in case we need to escape.”
It was similar to finding fingerprints on objects by sprinkling graphite powder.
At Lee Han’s prepared posture, Yonner was at a loss for words.
Seeing Yoner’s strange eyes, Lee Han thought that Yonaire was envious.
‘I’ll have to teach you later.’
Yoner would definitely like this technique!
“…I can’t.”
This time, however, it did not come off as easily as in the last underground warehouse. No traces were found.
Ian didn’t give up.
“Yone. stand back.”
If technology doesn’t work, power.
Just like the last time he had blown away the defensive magic at the entrance to the dormitory, Lee Han was going to blow away the magic that was blocking this passage.
‘You don’t have to hit that hard. Moderately. Enough to expose only the passage.’
Stop it, you idiot!
“!”
The spirit’s voice resounded in the hallway. It was a ferocious voice that felt violent just by hearing it.
“who are you?”
My name is not spoken to the unworthy.Why did you come to my shadow? I won’t forgive you if you don’t answer quickly.
“I was introduced to you by Mr. Parakis.”
To Parakis?
The voice of the ferocious spirit stopped as if in bewilderment. It looked unexpected.
As a professor at this school, he looks pretty strong, but that doesn’t mean he’s qualified to sign a contract with me. I don’t know what Parakis was thinking when he sent you…
“I am a student, not a professor.”
Yoner intervened.
?
“I’m a freshman…”
……
There was an awkward silence for a moment. Lee Han could feel the waves of magic flowing through the walls and ceiling.
The spirits seemed to be checking again.
He was a young wizard… Wait. Are you a real young wizard? Wasn’t he in disguise?
“If you don’t believe me, you can check it out.”
The ferocious spirit seemed to have thought about it and decided not to doubt it any more.
Then I understand what Parakis sent. He’s kind to young wizards. But he won’t make a deal. I do not contract with people I do not know well.
“Also…”
Yoner said sadly.
“You seem to avoid Lee Han because he has a lot of magic. Like other spirits.”
…what are you talking about? not!
The opposing spirit was perplexed at Yonaire’s words.
It’s not another misunderstanding, it’s because you’re afraid that you have a lot of magical power and dodge it.
It was a misunderstanding that could never be overcome.
“But he’s not showing up. After listening to Mr. Parakis, I heard that Lee Han’s existence itself scares the spirits.”
“Yone… I didn’t even say that…”
You sound like a weirdo!
“That’s why you don’t show up, are you?”
Because it’s not! Do I look like a spirit that won’t show up just because I’m scared of magic?!
“Then why don’t you show it?”
This time, Lee Han asked as if curiously.
Then the spirit hesitated and said.
He didn’t like pointless fights… he tried to avoid it.
“……”
“……”
Lee Han and Yoner looked at each other. And he said it as he knew.
“Is that so.”
“It can be.”
You young human wizards! Do you think I can’t even read the meaning of your voice?!
* * * *
Percuntra.
It was the name of the spirit that had not been revealed to the two of them.
The spirits summoned by the wizard usually do the contracted work at the place the wizard has provided, or come out whenever the wizard calls and do the contracted work.
The important thing here is the contract.
The wizard couldn’t force the spirit to do more than the original contract, and the spirit wouldn’t listen to it either.
But to put it on the other hand, the fact that the Spirit signed the contract at the beginning meant that he would protect it at the risk of his own honor.
So, why is Perkuntra doing this?
I don’t know if it’s a punishment room with people, or is it a closed punishment room without people?
The answer was that the contract was not properly signed.
-I summoned you, the great spirit, Perkuntra. give in to me submit to me I know your true name, you kneel!
– Don’t talk bullshit. Rich bastard that smells like rattlesnakes! No matter how much I respect the strong, do you know how to kneel before someone like you?
Principal Lich, who got his name from the relics of ancient ruins, summoned Perkuntra by that name.
Of course, knowing the name of Perkuntra, he did not succumb to it. Other than that, he didn’t want to sign Richie.
Two days a weekThey fought all week and night.
When Perkuntra did not yield no matter what he threatened, Principal Rich eventually came up with a compromise.
-If you don’t like the contract, how about a compromise, arrogant spirit Perkuntra? I won’t give you any orders if you just do one thing. In return, I will periodically pay tribute to you!
-…what are you talking about?
-I am raising young wizards. There is a building that educates these young wizards, and I want to prevent the young wizards from escaping from this building!
– Just that?
– Just that!
Perkuntra was shaken by Principal Rich’s words.
Compared to all the complicated and detailed contracts, it wasn’t too difficult to monitor a building and prevent the young wizards from escaping.
Besides, unless it’s an official contract, there’s no need to get close to that rich guy.
-If you refuse…
– Cheeky spirit bastard. This is my last suggestion. The moment you refuse, I will rip your whole body to pieces and seal it, and I will lock the books with your name in the forgotten tomb. Will you go into eons of oblivion, or will you accept my offer?
-…good night. I will accept it!
Realizing that he could not defeat Principal Rich, Perkuntra eventually accepted the offer.
And I wondered how hard it would be if the young wizards ran away again.
At the very least, it’s not like I’m going out because I miss it.
…However, the young wizards had good abilities and made frequent escape attempts.
Perkuntra found out the reason later.
That rich guy was recommending escape at all.
-If you succeed in breaking out, wouldn’t that be a trick? Try your best to escape.
If the madman made a mistake by the young wizard, the rules should prevent him from escaping. If he succeeded in escaping, the punishment room was canceled immediately, so the thick-headed students continued to try to escape.
As a result, the work in the dungeon was much more arduous and difficult than Perkuntra had thought.
The only time I could take a break was when I was alone and quiet in this closed punishment room.
This is a peace that will soon be broken if the students try to escape, but…
Still, I really liked this closed punishment room when the students weren’t there.
But today, suddenly, two blue young wizards came to Perkuntra’s resting place.
‘Parachis. This child!’
I knew I cared for the young wizards, but I’d send him this.
Perkuntra said wriggling.
My invisibility is for the sake of you young wizards!
“Oh, I see…”
Yoner didn’t openly piss off the spirits like Gainando, but the sincerity inside made Perkuntra even more pissed off.
A spirit of the size of Perkuntra could read what the young wizard was thinking.
Yoner thought to himself that Perkuntra was frightened.
It was a really bizarre misunderstanding.
Of course, the young wizard next to him had enormous magical powers, but Perkuntra was not a spirit that would run away in fear of such things.
Lee Han asked politely, as the conversation was slowly becoming bothersome.
“All right. Mr. Jung. I understand that you have no intention of signing a contract, so could you please open a way?”
wait!
“?”
You two young wizards now internally doubt my strength. Do you know how insulting that is?
“no…”
Lee Han protested as if it was unfair.
“Didn’t we say that we were polite? Why do you have such paranoid thoughts?”
I can’t read those feelingsDon’t you think you can?!
Lee Han and Yoner were slightly stabbed. But Lee Han did not back down.
“But it is not something we can do until the thought that comes to mind. Whatever the idea, I think we’ve been respectful and respectful.”
At Lee Han’s words, Yoner nodded his head, ‘Yes,’.
There really wasn’t anything wrong with it.
Of course, Perkuntra was not convinced.
Then I will show you a piece of my power.
“If you open that wall, I think you can see it…”
Be quiet and be prepared. you! Gather your magic
“I’ve been learning magic for less than a year.”
Know. So I’m trying to show it in the simplest way possible. Convert the elements with the magical power you have collected!
The opponent showed no sign of backing away easily.
Lee Han gave up and gathered his magical powers. To find a way out, it seemed that I had to convince that spirit.
“What element should I use?”
With the most destructive power!
“……”
I told you not to doubt!!
As if he had read Lee Han’s heart, the spirit became angry again. Lee Han was hot.
“Burn up!”
The most destructive element was, of course, flame. Lee Han hoped that the realization he had gained from touching the puppy would help him, and he ignited the flames.
At that moment, a huge thunderbolt fell from the ceiling of the punishment room towards the flames.
Boom!!!
“!”
“!!”
Lee Han and Yoner were startled by the roar.
And I was surprised at what was revealed next.
The flame that Lee Han had summoned was intact.
“…uh, what did you do?”
