Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 261
Chapter 261
“Why is that?”
Professor Voladi was puzzled when Lee Han stumbled on the griffon.
Lee Han gritted his teeth and said.
“I didn’t know the professor was by my side.”
“Be more observant.”
Professor Voladi lightly reprimanded Lee Han for his carelessness.
An excellent battle mage knows how to stay alert and maintain concentration above a certain level anytime, anywhere.
And that concentration also included observation.
Even when you are sitting on a chair in the spire stable and waiting, the person sitting next to you should be able to have doubts such as ‘Could it be the professor?’
“…I’ll keep that in mind.”
Lee Han carved Professor Boladi’s advice deep into his bones.
In magic school, you had to be able to guess who it was just by looking at the other person’s gait.
A student who can’t even do that doesn’t deserve to survive!
“By the way, if you were here, why don’t you talk to me?”
‘Or don’t talk to me forever.’
Lee Han wondered why he didn’t call in advance and called while riding on the griffon.
Was it your intention to bring Lee Han down?
Professor Voladi’s eyebrows curled slightly. The professor spoke slowly.
“You have to be quiet in the stable.”
“……”
At the magic school, there were some people who were more nasty when they said the right thing.
One of them was Professor Boladi.
It was absurd to see a person who normally does everything talk about etiquette.
‘Is there no etiquette in the Empire not to take a first year student to a dungeon?’
“That… I see.”
Lee Han took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
The appearance of Professor Voladi was shocking, but after thinking about it, it wasn’t the worst situation.
Unlike other professors, Professor Boladi didn’t care much about Lee Han’s rule violations.
“professor. Could you please keep my outing a secret?”
“I will.”
Professor Voladi answered right away without hesitation. Lee Han was deeply moved.
‘Even crazy professors sometimes have their strengths!’
I’d be so happy to hear it.
Amour, who was flying in front, noticed the conversation between the two and carefully asked.
“Are you okay?”
“it’s okay. Mr. Amour. He’s a good professor, so he’ll keep it a secret.”
“exactly? I hope you met a great teacher.”
Amour was relieved by Lee Han’s words.
Unlucky, I thought I was caught by another magician, but it was a master who knew the situation.
It seems that there was a ray of warm affection in Einrogard, from which only vicious and bloody rumors had been heard. Amur snatched his nose in delight.
“Even if you’re not a magician, meeting a great master is a lucky apprentice as a learner.”
Amour praised Professor Boladi. Professor Voladi nodded calmly.
Lee Han had to work hard to keep his eyes from widening.
‘You don’t have a conscience…!’
Even though Lee Han could praise Professor Voladi, Professor Voladi heard that compliment and nodded.
It would have been better if it had been the skeleton headmaster. There was a high possibility that Professor Bollardy really thought that way.
“Wizard, may I ask what you are going out for?”
“Because of preparing for the final exam.”
“aha.”
“aha. …?”
Lee Han, who nodded at the same time, hesitated.
what?
“Well, professors have to think about teaching students, not just magic. It must be really hard.”
“hmm.”
Professor Voladi nodded again.
Lee Han had to endure the urge to shout.
Conscience…!!
“What do you need? It’s fate that we met like this, and if it’s okay, I’d like to help.”
A wrinkle formed between Professor Voladi’s brow. After thinking about something for a moment, he opened his mouth.
“Immune to fire, water and lightning attributes, has strong magic resistance, and has a speed of over 60 km per hour…”
“Wait a minute.”
Embarrassed, Amour forgot his manners and interrupted Professor Boladi.
“Why do you need such a monster?”
“For sparring.”
“…Wait a minute… Didn’t you say you were preparing for final exams?”
Professor Voladi nodded.
Amour was silent for a moment.
Then, realizing the truth, he looked at Professor Voladi with a terrified face.
“No way… no way…”
“You’re probably right about what you’re thinking.”
Lee Han whispered.
Amur asked in disbelief.
“ah. Maybe the seniors…”
“No.”
“…No…”
Lee Han could understand Amour’s bewildered feeling.
And in fact, it was Lee Han who should be shocked the most right now.
‘Somehow lucky.’
It was not the time to be happy that Professor Voladi was canceling class.
I had to do something and go outside and prepare to bring a monster to fight with Lee Han…
I had to stop it.
certainly!
Lee Han whispered to Amour again.
“Is it okay if I invite one more guest to your house?”
“Of course.”
Amour once allowed Yihan to stay at his house if he got out.
Lee Han, who received additional permission, said with his eyes shining.
“professor.”
“?”
“Where are you going to stay when you get to town?”
“motel.”
“If you don’t mind, let’s stay here at Amur’s house. Aren’t you bothered to go all the way to the inn?”
Professor Voladi’s strength was that he nodded well. The professor nodded.
‘done.’
Lee Han made up his mind.
I will never let Professor Voladi go.
…If someone hears it, it may sound like poisoning, but it was closer to the meaning of not poisoning, but just holding on to it.
“I think I’ll have to focus on flying soon.”
“!”
Amour pointed forward. Lee Han looked at the obstacles in front of him with surprised eyes.
Rings of burning flames appeared all over the sky.
“What is that…??”
“It’s a trap that filters out unauthorized entrants. Today, you just have to go through the leftmost ring.”
“That’s right.”
Lee Han felt strangely uneasy while passing through the ring of flames.
‘I think I’ve had a dream like this before?’
* * *
Located near a huge stable, Amour’s house was not very spacious, but it was sturdy and comfortable.
The problem was the lack of food.
“hmm. There is plenty of food for the animals here, but…”
“No.”
Lee Han immediately thought of cooking feed and serving it to the professor, but immediately came to his senses.
It hadn’t reached that far yet.
“I will gather the necessary materials from nearby areas. Do you raise chickens?”
“…If you need groceries, can’t you go and buy them?”
Amour asked, puzzled.
“ah!”
Only then did Lee Han come back to his senses.
This was not a cold, lawless land, but an imperial town with order and rules.
‘I guess I can just buy it.’
The canned beans that Amour ate for a casual meal were not suitable for a professor.
In fact, Lee Han still didn’t know what kind of food was suitable for serving Professor Voladi, but it wasn’t that anyway.
‘It’s to make them eat and drink as much as possible.’
If you drink a hearty and warm meal and drink, won’t the professor get annoyed and lie down in bed?
And when you wake up, another hearty and warm meal and alcohol…
“Then I’ll buy it for you.”
“I think it would be better if we went together…”
Amour looked at Lee Han anxiously.
No matter how you look at it, he seems to be from a great aristocratic family, but it is highly likely that he grew up without a drop of water on his hands.
Can I choose the right one for what I need?
1 hour later.
Amour was more surprised than when Yihan tamed the griffon.
“Oh no! It’s more amazing than when I tamed the griffon!”
‘That doesn’t sound like much.’
Lee Han, who was diligently making sorbet, meringue pie, and biscotti, thought to himself.
Even so, it’s more surprising than taming a griffon…
“You two should sit down and eat first.”
“But it can’t be…”
“That’s what helps me.”
Lee Han said with a wink.
Amour sighed “Ah!” and nodded.
He understood the disciple’s heart to placate the mad professor.
‘I think you’re misunderstanding, but it’s okay.’
In fact, even if you misunderstood, it wouldn’t be a big misunderstanding.
Because the professor who brought a powerful monster to fight as a disciple had nothing to say even if he was misunderstood.
“Wizard. Considering the sincerity of the preparation, it would be better to eat it first.”
Professor Voladi nodded.
On the spacious rectangular table, there were already many ready-made hot dishes.
Big freshly baked white bread Honey and spices for dipping bread Steamed rice, porridge and soups with various vegetables to soothe the stomach before eating greasy meals Huge whole meat marinated and smoke-baked Brisket smoked salmon as hard as it is Grilled salmon Steamed fish with flounder and clams and steamed in wine.
The table was rich enough even without the various fruits and sweet desserts Lee Han was making. Amour, who usually eats roughly, swallowed without realizing it.
“Wizard. Here…”
Amour, who was about to offer Professor Boladi a drink, was startled.
The professor was eating only vegetables, vegetables and fruits on the table.
“Are you not satisfied with meat?”
“Because I don’t like it.”
Lee Han was not at all embarrassed.
In the first place, I tried to throw various things as I did not know Professor Voladi’s taste.
‘Right.’
Amour couldn’t help but admire Lee Han’s way of changing the direction of cooking in an instant from behind.
Even the alchemist who worked in Philone village for over ten years did not seem able to change direction without a single point of obstruction.
With a cheerful sound, Lee Han cut the vegetables into bite-size pieces. Then fried in oil.
When the sweet pumpkin and eggplant were fried, they made a crackling, appetizing sound. Lee Han put the lightly fried vegetables on the plate with the sauce.
“How about this?”
“It’s delicious.”
After Professor Boladi ate well, Lee Han continued to move.
Cut tomatoes and green onions, add eggs, stir-fry, and serve. Peel the asparagus I bought earlier, lightly blanch, and stir-fry with butter.
As Professor Boladi ate well on each plate piled up in front of him, Amour began offering drinks with confidence. Hearing the sound of the two drinking from behind, Lee Han smiled meaningfully.
thud!
There was the sound of someone banging on the forehead. Lee Han managed his expression and turned around.
“You can also have a wine salad…”
Lee Han paused.
Amour was asleep with his face flushed, and Professor Boladi was tilting his glass without a change in expression.
“……”
Lee Han did not curse at Amour. Amour was a good person who did his best.
…Because Professor Voladi is a madman.
“Looks like you have enough food. Eat slowly.”
“…ah. yes.”
Lee Han sat down bitterly at the drunken voice of Professor Voladi.
Lee Han cut the meat with a knife. Because it was so well made, the meat was moist and tender.
‘Even in the middle of this, the meat is delicious…’
“It’s not a good habit to skip or irregular meals.”
Professor Voladi lightly admonished Lee Han.
Lee Han was about to throw a fork, but stopped.
“I’ll be careful in the future.”
“It’s late, so you’d better go to bed as soon as the meal is over. We start as soon as we wake up.”
“yes? Where are you talking about?”
“To trade monsters.”
Professor Voladi answered, then asked again in a puzzled manner.
“Didn’t you treat me to a meal because you wanted to see it?”
“…I’m ashamed that my shallow inner thoughts were exposed.”
“The spirit of improvement and curiosity are the virtues of a wizard. There is nothing to be ashamed of. From now on, just say it.”
I was treated well because I couldn’t ignore the student’s sincerity, but Professor Voladi originally did not prefer to speak in this way.
‘I will unconditionally destroy it.’
Lee Han decided to become a true customer regardless of Professor Boladi’s face.
