Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Episode 844

After a short conversation, Lee Han lamented inwardly.

‘Unbelievable. ‘I can’t trust my senior.’

I couldn’t help but feel a sense of shame about being like this because I was suspicious of Delet, even if it were other professors or seniors.

“Wow. It’s so painful.”

“It’s not that bad, is it?”

Delet was embarrassed when his junior was suffering.

Of course, I worked too hard on magic that I shouldn’t have done due to a misunderstanding, but learning the Skeleton Golem was still a great achievement.

It is okay to be proud and proud.

“Junior. Look. It is now possible to summon a skeleton golem.”

“I didn’t have to…”

“…Isn’t a golem good?”

“I should have listened to what my senior said properly…”

Swish!

Delet grabbed the head of the whining junior with both hands and turned him sideways, forcing him to look at the skeleton golem.

“Hey, look. Isn’t it cool?”

“Ugh. That’s cool.”

“Are you proud?”

“I’m proud.”

“Yes. Completing a skeleton golem in one lecture is very, very impressive, isn’t it?”

“Yes…”

“It’s amazing, isn’t it!”

“yes!”

“Was today’s lecture rewarding and satisfying?”

“It was rewarding and rewarding!”

Delet, who was nodding his head in satisfaction with his junior’s answer (which he was forced to get), suddenly began to doubt himself.

…Am I acting like the professors at Einrogard right now?

* * *

After the lecture, Lee Han briefly visited Heukam Hall.

This was because he wanted to check Duke Ikaldoren’s condition in person.

‘If the duke’s condition has improved, he might be able to talk to me.’

Last time, the duke was so afraid that he only had him sign for Yukveltyre’s artificial dimension research and could not discuss any other transactions.

Direth claimed that the reason Duke Ikaldoren was scared was because of Lee Han’s status as a disciple of the Demon Commander… but

Lee Han completely disagreed.

‘The fact that his seniors kidnapped him by putting him in a toad demon must have been one of the reasons. ‘You didn’t just scare me.’

In any case, if the duke’s condition improved and conversation became possible, there was a possibility that Lee Han could also take the gold coins.

Lee Han went down the stairs, thinking of several fake research titles he had thought of in advance.

‘Something like 〈Study on Ancient Small World Magic〉, 〈Study on Application of Sub-Octane Magic〉 and 〈Advanced Transformation of Lightning Element and Study of Spirit Powers〉 might be too much.’

“Are you there?”

“Please get off. I won’t ask for any more.”

“?”

Lee Han was puzzled by the Duke’s tired and thick voice.

Of course, anyone would be nervous if they were trapped in the dungeon of the warlock’s magic tower, but what the duke said just now had a slightly different meaning.

It’s as if he’s talking to someone else…

“Your Majesty the Duke. Are you okay?”

“You… you are not the princess!”

The Duke belatedly recognized Lee Han’s voice and knocked on the bars.

“Come on! Come on!”

“???”

Lee Han went down guard, thinking it was a trap.

If you go down, wouldn’t the peacock hiding next to you attack you?

Of course, the Duke was nicely trapped inside the bars. Although he looked much paler and thinner than the last time I saw him.

“You…”

Duke Ikaldoren, who discovered Ihan, whispered hoarsely.

Lee Han was a little worried as it seemed like he was going to go on a rampage since he was the Commander-in-Chief’s disciple.

“Your Highness the Duke. There was a bit of a misunderstanding about what you said last time…”

“Do you have anything to eat?”

“yes?”

“Something to eat. Food. Anything is good.”

“I’m sorry, Your Highness. The only food I carry is ordinary food.”

I always carried a certain amount of food in my backpack just in case, but most of it was preserved food that I could easily eat.

This would not be surprising to the duke, who enjoys such extravagant meals that it is difficult to even remember the names of the dishes.

“Anything ordinary will do! Anything ordinary will do. Is there any bread?”

“Bread… there is. It must have hardened a bit.”

“Dao!”

“……”

Lee Han took out a slightly hardened piece of hard bread and held it out. The duke took off the package and hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth.

“Your Highness the Duke. Here, please spread some butter and jam and eat it.”

“Oh oh oh!”

The duke accepted the butter and jam offered by Lee Han with tears in his eyes. I cut the butter into large chunks with a knife, spread a lot of jam on it, put it on the bread, and swallowed it without even taking a breath.

The duke, who finished four loaves of bread in an instant, seemed to have finally come to his senses.

“…I will repay you for this meal. Demon Commander’s disciple. What research are you conducting?”

“Huh? That ancient small world…”

Before clearing up the misunderstanding that he was the demon commander’s disciple, Lee Han first spoke about the title of the study, which he had decided to be fake.

Before the duke could hear everything, he took out a piece of paper and signed that he would sponsor the research.

“Take it. Just write the name of the study here.”

‘no. ‘You give it to me so easily?’

Lee Han was embarrassed.

There is a certain amount of joy in luck. Isn’t this too easy and too fast?

I’m sure he didn’t give you this just because he gave you four loaves of bread with butter and jam…

…is there some other intention?

‘There may be a plan.’

While Lee Han was worrying, the Duke noticed and opened his mouth.

“Is there anything else to eat?”

“yes?”

“…I’m not asking for the ball for free. Let’s exchange it. Now, let’s take a look.”

The duke quickly took out another piece of paper and made a blank check to support the research.

“Let’s exchange it for food. How about it?”

“…Your Highness the Duke. Are you starving? Didn’t Senior Yukveltyre give you a meal?”

Duke Ikaldoren rolled his eyes.

I was worried because I didn’t know what Lee Han meant by the question.

If it’s a trap…

“Your Highness the Duke. I will keep your secret in the name of the Commander. Please tell me honestly.”

“…Yes. I was starving. I guess I didn’t know.”

“I don’t understand. Senior Yukveltyre is a narrow-minded, petty, stingy, and eccentric person, but he is not the kind of person who would intentionally starve his prisoners.”

There was a lot of gossip that was suspicious for a junior following a senior, but the duke was too tired and tired to notice.

“The princess didn’t let it fester on purpose. But it’s like she starved herself on purpose.”

The duke explained what had happened with a sigh.

At first, the Duke of Yukveltireman was a little relieved when the Demon Commander’s disciple and the student of the evil school of black magic disappeared.

Still, if you were to choose the most honorable and trustworthy wizard among the three, wouldn’t it be the royal family?

And Yukveltire behaved with courtesy, as the duke expected.

-Thank you for supporting artificial dimension research. majesty.

-…I’m just happy to help the outstanding wizard of Einroguard.

-If there is anything you want, please let me know. We will do our best to listen to you.

-joy. Instead, we should support more other research. okay. If it’s gold that I have to pay anyway… I don’t know how much longer I’ll be trapped in Einrogard, so I guess I should at least take this opportunity to eat properly. The food brought by the death knights was really boring.

When this week is over and I return to my cell guarded by death knights, I will have another boring meal.

The duke ordered the extravagant meal he had enjoyed in the past.

Einroguard students who are excellent wizards will be able to prepare well.

That judgment was almost correct.

…Except for the fact that there was one rare exception: in front of the duke.

– Rotten salad topped with truffles and beans harvested from the southern part of the chicory ham empire two days after harvest. Is that correct?

-…It’s all wrong. Are you kidding me?

-sorry. majesty. Could you please repeat that?

-… So, with truffles…

At first, when the princess couldn’t remember the menu properly, she thought it couldn’t be possible.

Still, isn’t he a senior student at Einrogard?

But that promise soon became a merciless reality.

-I have prepared. Let’s eat.

-Oh oh! Thank you… What is this?

-This is a southern-style mushroom consommé made with prosciutto ham without truffles and chicory salad that was harvested less than two days ago.

-…It’s not trash?

-majesty. It is meaningless for you to try to provoke me with such meaningless insults.

-I’m not trying to provoke you! no. Look at this!

The duke was truly amazed.

It wasn’t that difficult to make as long as you had the ingredients. It seemed more difficult to make something like this.

The ham is frozen and stuck to the bowl. The chicory salad has a strange smell, as if it was mixed with some strange sauce. The mushroom consommé has roughly cut fish and meat rolling around instead of clear soup…

-The ham is frozen!

-Isn’t it a delicacy to eat it cold?

-…It’s not cold, it’s frozen… And what on earth is this salad sauce!?

-I heard that the key to salad is the sauce.

-What about consommé?! What on earth are these junk items?

-I tried enriching the taste by adding the remaining ingredients.

-……

The duke seriously wondered if the princess had done this to insult him, but after a long conversation, he was finally able to understand.

The princess really didn’t know anything about cooking.

“He was unnecessarily confident in such a topic and tried to cook as he pleased! When I pointed this out, he told me not to provoke him with meaningless insults! Yes!”

The duke was so wronged and saddened that he cried out as he raised his veins on the wooden pole.

It wasn’t that difficult of a request.

It would have been much better than this if I had just followed the recipe.

“That’s right. That… But Your Highness. If you’re so bad at cooking, couldn’t you have just asked for the ingredients?”

“I didn’t say I couldn’t do it like a dog, but… I said it anyway. I won’t need it in the future, so just ask for the food you eat.”

Lee Han was puzzled by the Duke’s words.

So isn’t the problem solved?

‘Why are you starving like this?’

“Isn’t that good?”

“…Do you see that?”

The Duke pointed to the table outside the bars. There was a slice of thinly sliced bread on the table.

“I can see it.”

“That’s one day’s worth of meals.”

“Do you have leftovers?”

“No! That’s the princess’s meal for one day!!”

The duke cried out in a fit of convulsions. Lee Han was overwhelmed by the force and took a step back.

“Who would have known that the princess would eat so little? Damn it, shouldn’t we at least say something about it! How can a person survive after eating only that much!”

Yukveltire even came up with something, so he left the food first and left the place for a few days.

From the duke’s perspective, it was a complete surprise.

Even if I wanted to, I had no choice but to starve.

“Give me the food! Damn it!”

Duke Ikaldoren realized that titles and fame mean nothing in the face of true hunger.

When Ihan quickly took out a can of beef and gave it to him, the Duke took the lid off and ate it with his hands.

Squeak –

“!”

A door heard from above. Both Lee Han and the Duke were surprised at the sound of the door opening.

Lee Han was surprised as he had been trying to get some support while his senior was away, and the Duke was just surprised.

However, it was someone they had never seen before who came in.

He must have been crippled, so he was wearing crutches on one side, and on his waist was a kitchen knife and a ladle turner. They were wearing the same cooking utensils.

He was also wearing a chef’s unique hat, giving off the air of a very picky and nervous chef. The

other person looked Lee Han up and down and asked bluntly,

“Are you a boy from the Wardanaz family?

” …you’re right. Who are you?”

“I’m the kitchen keeper.”

“!”

It was the headmaster’s minion, a skeleton he had never seen before. Lee Han was surprised and said,

“This is my first time meeting you.”

“I guess so. Because I’ve never seen you either. And I’ve never seen any of the second graders either. Because of you. Thanks to you, I couldn’t even collect wands, so I got criticized. This is also because of you.”

“…???”
