Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Episode 845:

Lee Han was taken aback by the unexpected accusation.

Because of Lee Han, I’ve never seen the second graders and thanks to that, I haven’t been able to collect wands.

What does that mean?

‘Is this person crazy?’

Well, Einrogard originally had a lot of crazy people.

Lee Han was not surprised and tried to talk calmly.

“What do you mean you missed second grade because of me? And what about collecting wands?”

“Do you know what my job is?”

“Aren’t you guarding the kitchen?”

Unless there was an unknown meaning added to the word kitchen keeper, there was nothing other than this.

“Half of you got it right. The other half is exchanging groceries for the students.”

“!!!”

Lee Han was truly surprised by the humanitarian role he heard about for the first time in Einroguard.

“No. Is there such a role in Einroguard? Why have I never seen it before?”

“……”

The kitchen keeper gave a much harsher and harsher look than before.

And then he blurted out.

“You never saw it because you had nothing to regret.”

“yes?”

“If you want to meet me, you have to be truly poor. You have to be able to sell a canned food and a cane with the skin on your back. If you can rob a kitchen, you don’t mind going to the punishment room.”

The more I listened to the other person’s words, the more surprising I was.

Lee Han thought to himself.

‘Do you really only appear in front of hungry Einrogard students?’

A being that appears in front of a student when he or she is so starving that he or she is caught robbing the kitchen.

Although it was an eccentric and difficult appearance condition, it was considered average in Einrogard.

‘If you had known it would be like this, you wouldn’t have had to stock up on groceries so hard, right?’

Lee Han said with regret.

“It’s a shame. If I had thrown away more, I and my friends could have received groceries.”

“What do you mean, take it?”

“Aren’t you giving me groceries?”

“It was called an exchange.”

“……”

Only then did Lee Han come to his senses.

When I thought about it, it was strange.

There’s no way the skeleton principal’s minions would show up in front of hungry students and give them groceries for free.

“…Do you have to do anything to give me groceries? Do you make me do chores?”

“You overestimate the students. Is your chores worth it? They only accept magic items.”

The kitchen manager never gave groceries for free. Food was provided only after receiving various magic-related equipment.

Starting with the magic wands students received, small alchemy cauldrons, pots, cloaks, hats, etc.

Hungry students had to take at least their friend’s cane and offer it to them.

‘I can’t believe the first year juniors didn’t have canes…!’

Lee Han realized the truth and was shocked.

At first, I thought the first-year students at Black Turtle Tower collected the wands to celebrate and boast about their victory.

However, the students at Black Turtle Tower were equally hungry and having a hard time, so there was no way they could afford that. Of course, I collected it because there was a corner where food was served.

Students who are already poor and have nothing are made to steal from each other.

“Why on earth do you only accept such things?”

*Because the master ordered it.”

‘Aha.’

Lee Han, who was about to be indignant, was immediately convinced. If

the skeleton principal had ordered it, there was no need to wonder. I understood it very well.

“Last year, the master criticized me for not performing well. It’s because of you.”

“No… Then you have something to eat, but do you have to force yourself to hold it in?”

“It’s okay to eat it alone, so why are you sharing it with your friends? It’s because of you.”

“Then why don’t you give food to your friends when they’re starving?”

“If you give in a hundred times and share with your friends, why do you give it to the entire student body? No matter how you look at it, it’s because of you.”

“……”

Lee Han was slightly speechless at the kitchen keeper’s words.

Listening strangely, I thought that feeding all the students was a bit excessive…?

“Wait a minute.”

The Duke, who was listening behind him, interjected as if he did not understand.

“What? Prisoner?”

“…Don’t you know who I am?”

“You know. “You’re a fool who was caught trying to steal your master’s treasure,”

the kitchen keeper blurted out.

Duke Ikaldoren’s face turned red at those words, but he didn’t yell. There was no point in

getting angry at the Skeleton Headmaster’s servant according to the customs of the empire. He had already keenly felt that there was no .

“That’s it. Rather, isn’t this the Demon Commander’s disciple? You are the Demon Commander’s servant. Is it okay for a subordinate to be this arrogant towards his student?”

The Duke sternly pointed out etiquette.

Lee Han, who was holding it next to him, was dumbfounded and pointed out.

“What nonsense… Your Highness. I am not a disciple…”

But the kitchen keeper hesitated after hearing those words, thought about it, and then lowered his head.

“Excuse me. Please forgive my rudeness.”

“…No. Why are you apologizing! I’m just a student!”

When the kitchen keeper suddenly lowered his head, Lee Han felt even more upset.

How can there be such a thing as this?

But whether Lee Han got angry or not, the kitchen keeper seemed to have made up his mind. He kept his head down. I remained polite.

When I thought about it, no matter how grumpy I was, it wasn’t a good choice to be rude to the Demon Commander’s disciple.

Even if my resentment was relieved right now, revenge could come back a hundred times or a thousand times sooner.

Lee Han got angry and told me to stop. The kitchen manager persisted until the end.

“…Let’s stop. So kitchen keeper, what brings you here? “I’m not hungry and I have no intention of exchanging wands.”

“I didn’t come because of Wardanaz. “I came because of the idiot behind me.”

“Because of His Highness the Duke?”

“Yes. He called me.”

The kitchen keeper took out a small brass bell from his belt. The bell swung outward and made a clear sound.

“That fool doesn’t ring now because he’s full, but it used to ring this way.”

Kitchen . The “Bell of Hunger” that Jigi possessed was an artifact that found hungry people within the Einrogard territory. When a

starving person screamed with their soul, the bell sensed the person’s location and resonated the sound in that direction.

This artifact Using this, the kitchen keeper ripped off the students’ wands and various magical equipment and tools, and sometimes even found

students starving to death in remote areas of the territory .

Hearing the explanation, Duke Ikaldoren blushed again. That bastard,

the kitchen keeper, was because of him. I didn’t expect to come here.

“I… I wasn’t that hungry.”

“A servant who couldn’t speak would have lied. You idiot. Magic doesn’t lie.”

“…What a rude bastard…!”

The Duke was indignant, but couldn’t do anything inside the bars. The kitchen keeper put the bell back in.

“It’s not like the Duke is hungry . If there’s nothing else to do, I’ll have to go. Wardanaz. Please forget about being rude today.”

“No. I’m fine. If you think about it, isn’t the principal a bad person?”

“!?”

The Duke, who was listening behind him, was taken aback.

He had never thought that he would openly curse at his teacher.

‘Is it okay to do that?’

When Lee Han said that, the kitchen keeper bowed his head again as if grateful and turned around.

“Wait!”

“?” “

??”

It was the Duke who called the kitchen keeper and stopped him. Lee Han and the kitchen keeper looked at the Duke as if they were puzzled. I looked up.

“…Oh no. I heard they exchange food. okay. What can I give you?”

“……”

At Lee Han’s pitiful look, the duke felt shame as if he had been naked to the bottom of his soul.

If he had just shown him a look of contempt, he wouldn’t have been so ashamed.

“First of all, you can give it away. We need to check what’s there first.”

“…Do you see the ring here? This ring alone will be enough to buy a fortress.”

Duke Ikaldoren held out his index finger and held the ring up to the light. The

eighteen precious stones had been carefully cut and were shining brightly. Anyone could see that it was an expensive work of art. . But the kitchen keeper shook his head.

“That’s not possible.”

“What!? Why can’t I do that?”

“Like I said, I only receive magic items. There’s no magic.”

“You can buy dozens of magic items with just this!”

“Ask the owner. Idiot.”

No matter how much he said, the kitchen keeper remained steadfast. The duke was frustrated, pounding his chest, and shouted to Lee Han.

“Yes, boy! I guess you can exchange it. Exchange it for a magic item!”

“No. That’s a bit…”

“Why!!”

When even Lee Han refused, the duke stared with bloodshot eyes. I couldn’t understand why he refused.

“This is too… expensive, right? “It’s a prick on my conscience to exchange it for a few cheap magic items I have.”

Even though I was obsessed with collecting imperial gold coins, I was worried about the future if I scammed on such a large scale. I’m

hungry right now, so I exchanged that ring for a pair of magic leather boots. Even if you say you want to eat, won’t you change your mind later when you go out?

“I said I’m fine! Me!!”

The Duke was jumping up and down inside the bars, begging to be sold cheaply on the art that had been passed down through his family.

The kitchen keeper put a finger next to his head and twirled it around.

“Do it. You fool has turned sour.”

“Don’t say that.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Don’t even treat me with any respect.”

Then the kitchen keeper fell silent. Lee Han wanted to hit him.

“Your Highness the Duke. Then let’s do it like this. “I’ll just give you some magic items.”

It was Lee Han, who had tried to sell a portable leather water bottle by

enchanting it just last year. There were a few cheap magic items left in his backpack that he had made to help Professor Verdus with his work or for practice during lectures. .

The duke asked as if he didn’t understand.

“You’re just going to give it to me? So… then what do you get?”

“You’ll pay me back when you go out later.”

“……”

At that moment, tears flowed from the corners of Duke Ikaldoren’s eyes. These

were the first warm words he had heard since being taken to Einrogard. “…Ugh .

Ugh!”

“His Royal Highness the Duke. Did I say something wrong?”

“No… no. Thank you. thank you! I… I will definitely pay you back.”

The duke promised, crying, forgetting his age and reputation.

I felt so sorry that I was suspicious and wary of this boy because he was the Demon Commander’s disciple.

How could you insult such a good boy? Can you do it?

“I will definitely support you when I go out.”

‘Hmm. If I ask you to write a few more memorandums now, it would be too trash.’

Lee Han felt disappointed in his heart.

He couldn’t bear to say in front of someone who was crying like this, ‘Could you please write a few more memorandums of research support

? ‘

He was trying to disguise it, so

Lee Han even cast an illusion magic on him. Yukveltyre was not the person to take something like that away, but the Duke has now become a person that no one trusts,

especially the royal family.

-Your Highness the Duke. Senior Yukbeltire is not interested in cooking or eating, but he will not take away your food…

-No! I don’t believe it. I don’t know what that princess will do!

-…Okay, I understand. Don’t worry too much though. It’s because you’re busy right now. He will come back soon to check if there are any inconveniences.

-No! please. Tell them not to come anymore!

-No… I have to visit regularly. What should I do if there is any inconvenience?

-Please come! Please, please!!

-…No, I’ll try my best.
