Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 309
Chapter 309
“Let’s eat.”
The soup simmered in a pot on the campfire. The fresh vegetables and meat he brought with him were stir-fried, then he poured water, opened the canned food, and seasoned the soup.
Of course Lee Han did the cooking.
“??”
“????”
Gubon and Vizidek missed the timing to say, “Why are you doing this?”
I just quietly received the wooden bowl.
The students of the White Tiger Tower ate very naturally.
“Boy Wardanaz. The workmanship is still the same.”
“He’s as good at cooking as he is at magic.”
“By the way, Mr. Gubon. Do adventurers usually eat like this?”
I asked if Durgyu was curious. Gubon scratched his head as he pondered over how to explain it.
“Usually, when solving a nearby task, or until the first or second day of the request, I eat well…”
For requests that seemed close or short-lived, the adventurers also took care of the quality of food.
However, there was no such thing when entering a long-distance expedition or a large-scale ruin dungeon.
It was unconditional efficiency and compression. I don’t know when I’ll be hungry, but there was no crazy person who was interested in the taste.
“indeed. Is it right to eat like this for a request like today?”
“I thought adventurers only ate dried beef jerky.”
“There must have been some exaggeration.”
“…No, although they eat well, it’s rare that they eat well like this…”
Gubon said, puzzled.
‘Eat well’ was about eating fresh fruit, bread, or rice cakes that you brought with you before they spoiled, not about preparing something grandiose like this.
Starting from fetching water for cooking, doesn’t cooking using fire require as much fuel? There were few adventurers who used so much energy in one meal.
“Don’t you eat like this?”
“Yes… Both water and fire are hard.”
“indeed.”
Lee Han nodded and looked at his friends. The students of the White Tiger Tower covered the soup with their hands and protected it, as was customary in Ein Lorgard.
“No… I won’t give it back.”
“I had no intention of taking it. I already cooked, what should I do? Well, without magic, this would be all work.”
Even from Lee Han’s point of view, if he had done this without magic, it would have taken up a lot of time and energy.
“Then, from next time on, we will also simply use preserved food for adventurers…”
“You don’t have to make decisions too hastily. Wodanaz.”
“That is correct. Didn’t Mr. Gubon also tell you to eat well when you can eat well?”
Anrago and Rapadel desperately tried to convince Yihan.
To be honest, this was more delicious than the meal served at the Knights’ residence.
Gubon’s colleague Vizidek tilted his head.
“This soup is amazingly delicious.”
“Isn’t it because the ingredients are good?”
“I saw it while helping to cook, but there was nothing special about the ingredients… Is water special?”
“water? What is water?”
“Isn’t that the water the wizard called out?”
“like. indeed. Could be something like that.”
While the two adventurers were whispering, Ang Rago scratched the bowl and scraped the pot with a ladle, and was hit by Lee Han.
“Eat a little bit. You two should eat too.”
“Ah… no… It would be a waste if there was anything left…”
* * *
When the time came, Lee Han quietly got up.
The two adventurers said they would stay vigil by themselves, but Lee Han refused.
If you get into the habit of being lazy for no reason, it can be annoying later when the adventurers aren’t there.
‘By the way, the guild recommended really sincere people.’
Every time they wanted to do something, the way they tried to do it left a strong impression on Lee Han.
I heard that there were many adventurers with poor personalities, but it seemed that the guild had recommended someone they could trust.
“Eye, pierce the darkness.”
There was no need to be bored just because it was a night shift.
Lee Han cast dark vision magic and started reading the magic book. It was a terrible madness that would make the other White Tiger Tower students shudder.
< Ancient Basic Necromancer - About Summoning the True Undead > A
true black magician does not need to notice the undead of the other world, so he must be able to move the dead with pure will. Here’s the skeleton’s command…
When other warlocks conveniently contracted and summoned the undead in the undead world, Lee Han-eun, the headmaster of the skeleton, urged him to ‘learn authentic ancient black magic’, so he used old-fashioned black magic made by assembling bones I wrote it, but it wasn’t without its merits.
If there were really no advantages, Lee Han would not have done it no matter how much the skeleton headmaster insisted.
‘I hope that the Skeleton Warriors’ attack will be perfect within this vacation.’
It was possible to summon the Skeleton Warriors now, but their movement was quite limited and there were many failures.
Even if you get to the stage where the skeleton warriors attack the enemy on their own, you’ll see… No, it will be more comfortable when dealing with enemies.
Shasha shak-
“?”
Lee Han raised his head. There seemed to be a rustling sound somewhere.
‘Is it an animal?’
Pod!
As soon as he finished his thoughts, a light flashed from below and exploded. The anti-intruder magic that had been accidentally cast had been activated.
Although there was no attack power, it was enough to panic the intruder and allow this side to respond.
Lee Han, as a skilled Einrogarde student, moved without a moment’s waste.
puck!
“wake up! It’s an attack!”
“Are you the school principal!?”
After kicking their friends in the back, the students of the White Tiger Tower hurriedly stood up.
“Not the principal!”
“Everything… I’m glad.”
“Not fortunately! Everyone, take up your arms!”
The experienced Gubon and Vizidek were very nervous.
The skills of the students were excellent, but in these surprise attacks and melees, composure was also very important, apart from their skills.
I never thought that an intruder like this would appear in a situation where I had a request with the students.
‘I hope it’s not a big deal!’
Gubon and Vizidek hoped that the intruder was a shepherd, a traveler, or a lost adventurer wandering around.
“Hold your shield and bow your head.”
“Protect Wardanaz!”
“!?”
However, the movements of the students exceeded the expectations of the two adventurers.
Standing up right the moment the light burst, holding a weapon and a shield and forming a formation wasn’t usually skillful.
‘As expected, he’s from a knight family!’
It wasn’t because they came from a knight’s family, but the misunderstanding between the two adventurers piled up.
“What the hell are you guys doing here!”
A harsh voice came from below. It was clear that the light was hurting his vision.
‘If you want to attack, you have to attack now…’
Gu Bon pondered. If it was a party of warlike adventurers, they would have attacked the opponent first.
However, the students here are all from knight families. There was a high possibility that he would not choose to do such a cowardly thing.
“We are adventurers who came from Granden City to solve the quest for the Burning Hills. If you don’t reveal your identity, I will attack you!”
“The ungreen hill we came to two days ago. go away!”
The students of the White Tiger Tower were taken aback by the sound coming from below.
It was because he did not yet know the customary rules of adventurers.
“Should we back off?”
“no! Originally, it is customary for the person who arrives late to back down, but that is not necessarily the case, and to do so recklessly without evidence is…” “
Okay. I’m leaving!”
“!”
Friends and adventurers were surprised by Lee Han’s cry, but did not refute.
It was out of respect for Lee Han’s authority.
“Keuug… I don’t need to be considerate of those guys.”
“Be patient. It’s more disgraceful to fight with such people.”
While Anrago and Rapadel felt sorry for them, Lee Han spoke again.
“We need to make sure that they are not attacking while we retreat. Show yourself!”
“Don’t talk nonsense. How do you know your pup is going to attack?”
“We come out one by one to check. How are you?”
“…good night.”
Lee Han said to Raphael.
“I’m counting on you.”
“okay. Okay… wait a minute.”
Raphael narrowed his eyes as he remembered the time when he and Lee Han went to the undead world.
“You can’t…”
“Don’t think strangely and move quickly. If there is anything suspicious, tell me right away.”
“……”

The mercenary Buldahak frowned and walked out.
Seeing Rapadel, Buldahak’s wrinkles deepened.
‘what? Aren’t you a kid…?’
Even Buldahak was not willing to shed blood for no reason, but it was a different story.
Aren’t they well-equipped with equipment on the theme of a kid?
Usually, young adventurers are often unable to hold proper weapons, let alone armor, and often burst out, but the kid in front of them was the exact opposite.
It was evident that she was dressed up, probably using belongings from her family or the possessions she brought with her.
‘I don’t think a party like that would be that great.’
Buddha’s fingers wriggled involuntarily. I was strongly tempted to send a signal to the men behind me and attack them.
“Shine.”
Along with a small chant, a sharp stream of lightning struck the Buddha’s back from behind.
Pajijijik!
“It’s so… Huh?!”
Buldahak’s limbs stiffened and his weapon fell from the completely unexpected attack.
Raphael was surprised at how unexpected it was.
“Woah… Wodanaz!?”
“Shine, shine. Shine.”
Lightning streaks flew again, and the mercenaries hiding in nearby bushes screamed and rolled.
“Wizard!!! There is a wizard!”
“Find the wizard… Kyaha!”
The remaining mercenaries finally grasped the situation and looked around, but nothing was visible.
“Light the torch!”
“The target is…”
“You idiot! Wizards see through the darkness! Turn it on quickly!”
‘I must stop using lightning magic.’
Lee Han thought as he moved to his seat.
The reason why he said he would step down in the first place and sent Raphael in front of him was to pass the time and figure out the number of opponents.
As soon as the grasp is over and the back is caught, the attack begins immediately.
With lightning magic that exploded precisely, he took down the menacing ones first.
Invisibility was applied, but if he continued to use lightning magic, he could be located and counterattacked.
Of course, that didn’t mean he couldn’t use magic.
“Spring up.”
The water beads quickly split and moved in different directions.
It was an attack that I couldn’t figure out where it was coming from.
puck!
“I have already used a lot of magic! Wizards no longer use magic… oops.”
The shouting mercenary collapsed and the other mercenaries were terrified as the water beads hit the jaws of the other mercenaries as well.
“I will surrender!”
“I will surrender, Mage! I will surrender!”
Only then did Gu Bon come to his senses and shouted.
“Lay down your weapons and put your hands up! I will attack anyone who moves even slightly! Busy Deck! Go tie them up!”
“We will go too.”
The White Tiger Tower students and Vizidek tightly tied up the fallen and surrendered mercenaries.
“This guy… Buldahak! It’s Buddhist!”
Vizidek exclaimed in surprise.
“Who are you?”
“He’s a criminal with an Imperial bounty!”
“oh. How much is the bounty?”
After removing the invisibility, Lee Han appeared from behind.
Gubon asked curiously.
“How did you know that this person was Buddha?”
“I didn’t know.”
“yes?”
“If we were to fight, the first attack would always have an advantage, wouldn’t it?”
At Lee Han’s words, the White Tiger Tower students nodded in agreement.
“As expected, Wodanaz-kun.”
“Because he’s a guy who never lets his guard down. You have to learn that.”
“……”
