Chapter 009
It’s not just wizards who use mana.
A swordsman who has trained by wielding a sword for the rest of his life can condense mana and overlay it on the sword.
The realm of Auror!
As this was so cool and splendid, there were many nobles who said they would learn swordsmanship after seeing this.
It was no different from a wizarding family.
So when Lee Han first said he wanted to learn swordsmanship, Allarron thought like this.
‘You want to learn this kind of aura. You’ll be disappointed if you find out the truth.’
Allarron is a stern knight.
I didn’t bother to tell you the truth. It was because I thought Lee Han would leave on his own.
However, Lee Han endured better than expected, and Allarron, who was satisfied, decided to tell the truth himself first.
…But I was a bit embarrassed to hear that Lee Han had no interest in Aurors.
-I thought it was enough to train myself and protect myself.
-…!
At Lee Han’s words, Allarron admired without even realizing it.
It was a mature look that a child could not show.
To think he was learning swordsmanship with such a serious mindset.
– Actually, Mr. Lee Han. Han Lee can also cast Auras. someday
– No… It’s over. I’m just a wizard…
– It’s not something you can realize by wielding a sword for a year or two. However, if you continue to wield and train your sword as I have taught you, you will be able to understand it someday.
– I just need to protect my body. kyung. I want to live in an office.
In any case, Lee Han continued to do as Allarron told him to do.
I didn’t really want to become a sword master after realizing my aura, and there was nothing wrong with just training myself.
* * *
…The results were coming out right now.
‘It tastes better than I thought…?’
Lee Han surprised himself.
It wasn’t surprising that he knew the pig’s movements and sharpened his staff accurately the moment he came in.
It was a skill I had learned from being beaten by Allarron over and over again.
The staff provided by the magic school was very hard, so there was no problem using it as a club.
However, when he hit the pig, he felt the magic around him swirling around and gathering in the staff.
A feeling I had never felt while practicing wielding a sword!
‘Is it because I started learning magic?’
I wondered if this was what Allarron said, ‘You’ll understand someday’.
The feeling of naturally gathering mana into a weapon.
Of course, it was still at a ridiculous level to call it an Auror.
It’s because you have to gather and condense mana to become an aura.
But that was enough.
An attack with magic power is much more destructive than a simple swing.
-Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry.
Actually, the pig that was grunting so ferociously also stuttered in one blow and fell to the side.
Nilia, who was watching, looked at Lee Han as if it was absurd.
‘Didn’t I see that?? Did he use magic??’
The world of magic was wide, and of course there were strength-enhancing magic and agility-enhancing magic.
However, it was too difficult magic for a freshman who had just entered school.
“Have you done it!?”
“Looks like it’s been… harmed.”
Lee Han put down his cane and checked the mutant pig’s breath. It was definitely dead.
Yoner stood up with support. And then he said it as if it were absurd.
“Is this class okay?”
“I’ve been thinking about that ever since I met the principal.”
No matter how much the secret of alchemy is deep in nature, monsters like this wander around where freshmen who haven’t learned a single magic properly go around.
The horse was a pig. Judging by its power, it wouldn’t be strange if it ate a thick tree.
‘Should I not listen to alchemy?’
Lee Han seriously thought about it.
If you calculate the probability of death assuming that the professors at this magic school are all a little crazy…
Wouldn’t the classes taken outside the classroom be higher than the classes taken inside the classroom?
I thought it was a class to eat raw, but seeing the monsters I met now, I could become more intense in the future.
“I can tell you to go deeper into the forest and collect troll saliva from now on.”
“Umm…”
Yoner also furrowed his eyebrows as if he was a little worried about Lee Han’s words.
He wanted to open an alchemy workshop, but he did not want to die.
“Sleep… wait. You don’t want to hear from me, do you?”
Nilia said urgently.
Poor friendships.
They were two barely made friends. If these two didn’t show up for alchemy class, Nylia had to listen alone again.
“Isn’t that so!? Both… Both belong to the Blue Dragon’s Tower. Now, don’t you have some kind of pride?”
“I don’t have one.”
“I’m the type of person who thinks practical profit is more important than honor…”
“……”
Nilia was completely furious at the words of the two great nobles.
“Yes, do whatever you want!”
“no. Why are you pouting?”
“that’s right. It’s not like I decided not to listen.”
“…really?”
As Nilia turned her head to ask, a familiar cry erupted from the other side.
-■■■!
“…it seems to have come out again.”
“…Maybe they just won’t listen…”
“……”
* * *
The three of them ran and found the mutant pig they had just dealt with.
Lee Han quickly came to a conclusion after learning that there were not just one but two people like him around here.
“I should stop listening.”
“hey…!”
“I don’t think this is the time to fight that…”
Yoner pointed down.
The pig was not alone. It was threatening the hapless students.
‘Six people.’
There were six of them, including Princess Adenart.
A much better situation than the Lee Han group.
“Wouldn’t you take care of yourself?”
“Yes?”
Yoner looked at Yihan once and then looked down again. And I looked at Lee Han again.
“Is it really so?”
“Tell those bastards to take care of themselves.”
Nilia grumbled.
The group of followers following Adenart didn’t look very good.
What seemed like a lofty and arrogant princess and those who clung to her and flattered her!
“I will deal with you!”
“!”
One out of six came forward. Lee Han was also an aristocrat whom he had seen in the dormitory.
“Who is it?”
Of course, just because you saw the face didn’t mean you could recognize it right away. Although Lee Han knew the imperial aristocratic families, he did not know the faces of his children.
“Asan Moon Card.”
“aha. The Dalcard family.”
“…You know the family name, but why don’t you know the face…?”
Yoner was puzzled.
Moon card family.
If the Wodanaz family had been the advisors of the emperor for generations, the Dalcard family had been the imperial chancellor or treasurer for generations.
A family with a high reputation for excellent and accurate work.
“I would trust the Dalcard family.”
“huh. Unlike Guinando, it seems to be reliable.”
“?”
Nilia, who was listening, tilted her head.
Did you just say the prince?
Asan was tall and skinny, but the posture holding the cane was convincing.
Lee Han noticed that Asan had mastered swordsmanship.
Masters know how to recognize each other.
“That Dalkad also learned swordsmanship.”
“I see… if it’s like that, it’ll be fine.”
Yoner was relieved.
He didn’t want the six people below to get hurt.
Asan grabbed his staff and aimed at the pig.
“I read 100% of your movements.”
and one step.
“You cannot deviate from my predictions. pig!”
and one step.
It was the same stride as if drawn with a ruler. Lee Han was a little amazed.
‘Is it a human campus?’
The Empire’s swordsmanship was as diverse as its magic.
Strong and heavy swordsmanship, fast and light swordsmanship, and complex swordsmanship with many variations…
And Allarron said that there are swordsmanships like the ones Ahsan is using now.
-Geometric swordsmanship that creates a figure centered on your position whenever you step on foot based on complex mathematical calculations… -Oh
. It looks interesting, can you learn it?
-…yes!? Do you think that looks fun!? Doesn’t it sound like crazy swordsmanship?
Allarron did not know the swordsmanship, so he only taught him the swordsmanship he knew, but seeing Asan move while holding the staff, he remembered that.
thorough!
-■■■!
When Asan provoked the pig while stepping on the steps, the pig seemed to get angry too.
She cried ferociously and rushed to Asan.
Asan stepped aside as if in a bullfight and ferociously stabbed the pig in the side with his cane.
“under!”
– !
bang!
And Asan flew away.
The angry pig slammed on the brakes and threw its torso sideways.
“……”
“……”
It wasn’t a direct hit, but the shock was great. Asan rolled around.
“Kuk. My calculations were wrong…”
“…He was just a guy who studied swordsmanship hard…”
Lee Han murmured.
Apparently, he studied swordsmanship diligently, but he seemed to have little practical experience.
That’s why he has a good posture, but he can’t predict and flies away against a pig that is attacking!
“Let’s help.”
“!”
Nilia was surprised by Lee Han’s words.
I didn’t know that he would come out to help in that situation.
‘This is the dignity of nobility…?’
Unlike other aristocrats who only live with their mouths, he himself takes the lead in dangerous situations.
He looked like an aristocrat, as if he had only seen it in a story. Nilia was very slightly moved.
“Once you help, you can ask for favors in other classes in the future. No exams or assignments. Especially if it’s the princess’s connections.”
“……”
Nilia’s emotion disappeared.
Hey you bastard…!
* * *
Adenart gestured backwards.
Even without words, the meaning was clear.
The remaining four students hurriedly hid behind Adenart.
It wouldn’t be hidden by hiding, but…
Adenart suddenly felt lonely.
She said it was Vicky, but she wasn’t happy about the situation.
But this too is just a task to be accomplished.
Like everything else he had done perfectly, Adenart intended to do this pig perfectly.
‘Read the breath. If you rush…’
Whoops!
The pig tumbled to the side with a roar.
“?!?!”
And Lee Han appeared behind him with a sigh of relief.
“Fortunately I didn’t hear.”
“Do you see how important it is to approach with a headwind?”
“okay. The wisdom of a hunter is great.”
“…If I continue to take alchemy classes, maybe I can deepen that wisdom?”
“no. I hate that.”
“……”
Lee Han had already made up his mind.
I hate alchemy!
‘I will live inside the classroom.’
Adenart froze for a while, but soon recovered his emotions and bowed his head.
“…Thank you. Wodanaz.”
“It’s nothing. Princess.”
Nilia, who was listening next to her, whispered in a puzzled way.
– Why do you say honorifics?
-That’s right. I was also caught up in the mood.
Since everyone is of the same age and there are school rules, short speech was common regardless of social status, but when the princess spoke like that, he began to use honorific words without realizing it.
“really. If you think you’re indebted, can I ask you a favor?”
Adenart nodded.
“If you have a good class to get good grades, please recommend it.”
As the princess had more connections than Lee Han, she must have heard a lot of knowledge.
Lee Han thought so.
“……”
Of course, from Adenart’s point of view, it was a bit of a distraction.
What is this wordanaz mage talking about?
I’m sure he wasn’t asking because he wanted to eat the lecture raw, but did he mean something else?
“I know a good lecture to get good grades!”
A dwarf’s voice came from behind.
Lee Han suddenly felt a chilling ominous feeling.
Just like when I met my old graduate school professor…
Tak-
The dwarf professor’s thunderous steps grabbed Lee Han’s collar as he hurriedly moved out of the way.
Then he said in a pleasant voice.
“That’s an alchemy lecture. Wardanaz.”
“……”
