Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Chapter 044

For a while, only silence could be heard from the next room.

Lee Han asked cautiously, wondering if he said something wrong.

“Did I do something wrong?”

“Oh no. I’m just a little surprised The freshman… is very capable.”

“Have you been caught?”

‘Crazy bastard, if you don’t get caught there, you’ll have to be the principal…’

The other party thought so.

If the imperial anti-magicists came, it wasn’t normal.

Even at school, outstanding professors must have gone out to fight.

In such a situation, you want to fight together and not get noticed. There wasn’t too much of that without a conscience.

“What are you doing here, senior?”

“Senior. Quit the strange noises. It doesn’t matter if you call me comfortably. After graduating anyway, we’ll all be the same wizards.”

“okay. So what did you come in for?”

“……”

The opponent on the other side of the wall instantly became very curious about Lee Han’s face.

What is this kid really doing?

“I came in because I failed during an experiment.”

“no. If you fail during an experiment, you come to the punishment room?”

Lee Han was shocked.

Isn’t that really too much?

However, the opponent beyond the wall was calm.

“No surprise. You will find out later.”

The 4th grade confessed what had happened.

There are materials needed for the magic experiment he is currently researching, but he failed to obtain them within the time limit.

So, the 4th grader went into one of the principal’s secret warehouses, robbed the reagents, and came out.

However, he failed to penetrate the principal’s trap completely and was eventually caught and brought to the punishment room.

“…?”

Lee Han, who was listening, hesitated.

‘Isn’t it because I failed while experimenting?’

Didn’t that just get caught stealing?

But Lee Han didn’t point that out. Originally, if you stay in graduate school for a long time, people’s common sense collapses.

Even if the magic school senior’s common sense collapsed, it wasn’t the senior’s fault. It was the magic school’s fault.

“From my point of view, many professors will covet your ability, so you better be careful. Be careful not to fail when experimenting.”

“Remember. But I have no intention of staying at school for long.”

“You are humble.”

“No, I really don’t intend to stay long…”

“Yes. I guess so. You look like a model student, but are you from the Blue Tower? No, it can’t be.”

“……”

No matter what I said, it seemed that the other person wouldn’t listen, so Lee Han gave up.

But for some reason, I couldn’t help but feel ominous.

“senior. Can I ask you something more?”

“say it.”

“It looks like it will be difficult to go through the underground passage again. Is there any other way to get out?”

At Lee Han’s question, a snort was heard from the side.

“Of course not. but junior. Aren’t you asking for too much? Why should I teach you that?”

Instead of answering, Lee Han lifted his head from the wall and shouted at the door.

“Jailer!”

“!?”

The student next to him was frightened and straightened his posture.

What is this kid doing!?

Are we going to die together?!

-What’s going on?

“Could you pass this on to the next room?”

-i get it.

I wanted to just in case, but the undead summoner surprisingly kindly accepted the request.

He asked me to bring in a gift from the professor, so I looked it up and it worked.

The basket was filled with cookies and hot black tea and sugar, and he went to the next room.

Kwa Dang Tang!

“???”

“Oh no. Surprised… How did you get this?”

“I got a present.”

“……”

At this point, the student beyond the wall wanted to know who Lee Han really was.

After a week of admission, he secured a passage to the outside and actually succeeded (if it were not for natural disasters). …

‘Isn’t this bastard from the crime guild??’

Students who committed crimes sometimes entered the Tower of the Black Turtle, and I had a strong suspicion that this was the case with Lee Han.

A giant too!

Otherwise, it was an unexplained ability.

“Anyway, senior. Can’t this be enough?”

“…no. it’s okay. If you received it like this, you can tell me.”

The student beyond the wall cleared his throat.

In addition to receiving an unexpected gift, if the other person really came from the crime guild, there was nothing good about buying a grudge.

If you find out later and get retaliated against…

“But before I say anything, let’s make this clear. Even us seniors don’t know what the ways to get out of school are. There are so many people who have never been successful.”

As they were allowed to go out little by little after the first year, there were many people in the upper grades who never managed to escape.

In fact, most of them were like that. That’s how difficult it was to sneak out of school.

‘…But I never thought that the first year would be successful.’

“The way I know is the way I’ve heard of above, and I’ve never done it before. I don’t know if I can succeed or not.”

According to the student from Beyond the Wall, there was a special stable in one of the spiers atop the main building.

A stable for flying beasts!

It was a resting place for beasts ridden by professors and vultures of bureaucrats delivering edicts.

The beasts there received special protection and were able to fly over the walls of the school.

“The trouble is, I wouldn’t have let you ride those beasts casually.”

“……”

It certainly was.

Just like there is a storage keeper in a warehouse, there must be something in a stable.

‘But it’s not bad.’

It was quite hopeful that there was a way.

Besides, isn’t that the way someone succeeded once?

Then Lee Han had a high chance of success.

“thank you. senior.”

‘…You bastard… you thought of a method just by hearing this?! how?!’

The misunderstanding of the opponent beyond the wall deepened.

* * *

– Released. Lee Han of the Wodanaz family.

After a day, an undead summoned man opened the door.

Lee Han put some more chocolates in the next room before walking out down the hallway.

Thanks to a senior I didn’t know, I was able to hear a lot of stories.

Strangely, as the other person went by, he became less talkative and hesitated, but Lee Han thought it was probably because he was annoying.

Wouldn’t anyone be annoyed if someone you don’t know well keeps talking to you?

Nonetheless, I just wanted to thank you for your reply.

‘I should say thank you when we meet later.’

Lee Han came out through a complicated process just like when he came in.

Outside the main building, the darkness had dissipated and the sun was slowly rising.

‘Mmm. It’s like a kitchen.’

Entering the Blue Dragon Tower and heading to his private room, Lee Han was surprised to see the new room.

It looked like a well-appointed kitchen or grocery store.

This was even more so as I carefully stocked up all the groceries I received from here and there.

Various seasonings and seasonings such as salt sugar tea leaves and canned fruits such as apricots, peaches, and pineapples are piled on the shelves.

There were cans of beans, cans of salmon, and cans of corned beef that were more satisfying.

If I ate alone, I thought I could easily eat for a few weeks.

‘I could do business seriously.’

Deciding to think about what to do with the business later, Lee Han opened the door and went out.

Since he had risen early in the morning, he intended to go to the stable and challenge Professor Lightningwalker’s assignment.

“Lee Han?”

As I was getting ready to leave the break room, a girl with red hair yawned and came downstairs.

“Where have you been all day!?”

“The punishment room. Didn’t the professors tell you?”

“huh. Professor Garcia said you’re resting because you got hurt from setting up a big ball.”

“……”

Lee Han seemed to understand why Professor Garcia lied.

For boys and girls from great families, honor was more important than they thought.

Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if Lee Han was known to have gone to the punishment room for committing a mistake as he was from the Wardanaz family?

Besides, it wasn’t that he didn’t do anything wrong, he was just helping Professor Garcia.

“no. I was caught leaving school and went to the punishment room.”

Of course, Lee Han didn’t care about that at all. Fortunately, Yoner didn’t mind that.

“Why did you go alone?”

“I wanted to check it out first because it wasn’t clear information.”

“Let’s go together next time. Two are better than one.”

“Then shall we take Nilia with us?”

“huh. good idea. Let’s take Nilia too.”

Nilia, who was absent, was forced to attend, but the two didn’t care about that.

Yoner asked, tilting his head.

“So what exactly happened?”

As they walked to the stable, Lee Han slowly began to explain what had happened.

Guessing about the underground passage and how to get through it, and even the warehouse and the warehouse keeper who was guarding it.

Yoner listened quietly with surprised, round eyes.

“So I went outside and there were people waiting for me.”

“principal?”

“no. Imperial anti-magicists.”

“!??”

Yoner was startled.

What Professor Garcia said was not a joke, it was the truth.

Anti-magicists hiding around the school.

“Then it’s right to set the ball?!”

“And I went to the punishment room.”

“…why??”

Yoner didn’t understand.

Why?

* * *

There were a few students in the stable who came earlier. All of them were students of the Tower of the Black Turtle.

Seeing Lee Han and Yoner, the students of the Tower of the Black Turtle flinched and quietly backed away.

Yoner didn’t seem to care, but Lee Han was slightly hurt.

‘This custom of evaluating people based on their appearance and family line must end!’

Of course, the students of the Black Turtle Tower were also a family, but they were afraid of Lee Han’s rumors, but Lee Han did not know that.

“Hey…”

“!”

When one of the Black Turtle Tower students spoke to him, Lee Han was delighted.

Is it Nelia?

But it wasn’t Nilia. The one who spoke to me was Ratford, a rat-beast race.

“good morning. Mr. Wodanaz.”

Lee Han was taken aback by his attitude as if he was respectfully serving his superiors.

Whoever sees it will think that they are forced to do it by threatening them!

“hey. take it easy.”

“I am comfortable with this.”

It was rather difficult for Ratford, who had lived in the thieves’ guild, to talk unflatteringly to his superiors.

Strict superiority and subordination.

It was a real convenience.

“……”

Lee Han shook his head as he saw the eyes of the Black Turtle Tower students growing more and more fearful.

‘That’s wrong.’

“okay. i get it.”

Lee Han gave up halfway and looked at Ratford. In fact, Lee Han was also curious about what happened after the last fight.

Lee Han-ah, he stretched out as soon as it was over…

“What happened after that time?”

“yes. As you said, I hid during the fighting. When it was over, the principal arrived with the other professors.”

“Good job. It’s better than stepping out and getting hurt.”

“The workers were also preoccupied, and seeing what seemed like an opportunity, they rummaged through the boxes in the wagon, opened the locks, and grabbed what seemed useful. I had to hide it on my body, so I had to pick out and pack only the small-sized ones, but I brought it here as a tribute.”

Ratford held out a small box, inside which were dangling vials.

“……”

Lee Han was speechless and admired.

‘A real professional thief is different no matter what!’
