Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 373

Chapter 373

Diret put his palms on Lee Han’s ears. Lee Han was displeased and pushed him away.

“Wouldn’t it be dangerous to drive the undead from that other dimension?”

“Coke. It’s not like that in the first place.”

Professor Mortum meekly agreed with Diret’s point.

One of the mistakes many talented wizards make is to die a miserable death after entering another dimension and behaving as usual.

Using black magic and summoning the undead in the undead world is similar to applying honey to a swarm of hungry insects.

Outside, no matter how much black magic was used, there was no particular repercussion, but in a dimension with other rules, the wizard did not know what changes would occur.

If you don’t have luck with your words, the great devil who feels special displeasure at the wave of magic might come to you after using the curse once.

And leaving that aside, gathering the undead in one place was just a risky move.

The undead army gathered in one place will increase in size by itself like a snowball going down a slope until no one can stop it.

“But there is a way.”

“which…?”

“Here we are using this Wardanaj-kun… No, we’re borrowing the military’s power.”

Lee Han smiled bitterly at the sight of Professor Mortum talking like Professor Verdus.

‘I’ve let them attend meetings, but they’re revealing their true colors.’

“Coke. The fact that the undead are avoiding Wardanaj-kun… Conversely, it can induce the undead to move. Without having to use complicated magic to attract enemies.”

Professor Mortum intended to use only a few very simple spells.

The degree to which it detects the location of enemies and undead and transmits it to Lee Han telepathically.

If he had the skill of Professor Mortum, he could completely hide the flow of magic flowing out of it, and since it wasn’t black magic, it was good to say that there was no danger at this level.

“What is the danger of undead gathering in one place?”

“it’s okay. senior.”

Lee Han answered instead. Diet was puzzled.

“Why?”

“The enemies will fight first anyway, so if you feel strange, you can stop then.”

“…That’s right.”

Diret wondered if his junior was angry.

“Aren’t you angry?”

“yes? Isn’t it?”

* * *

“Catch it and finish it.”

“yes!”

Armed with shields and heavy armor, the enemy’s avant-garde, which had endured tenaciously, finally collapsed, and Bakdeulgul ferociously gave orders.

Terrified, the enemy party turned their backs and hurriedly fled.

Now all that’s left is time for the slaughter…

uhh-

“How many damn undead have there been around here?”

“It’s the ghosts from the side!”

The subordinates who tried to chase them burst into annoyance at the appearance of the undead that jumped out of the passage next to them.

The undead continued to come out from before, and the fight got longer, but they came out again.

“Take care of it. If you let them chase you from behind, it will be annoying.”

“I know!”

The subordinates tried to wipe out the undead like they did before and go after them.

However, before the fight was over, a new group of undead appeared from behind.

“It’s a zombie lizard!”

The men let out an annoyed sigh as a large monster that looked like a long-legged crocodile stomped and approached from behind.

Dealing with such large monsters was not an ordinary effort.

“Please allow me to use the potion!”

“I think you know that there are still potions left.”

“But…”

“Tsk. Only use one!”

Bakdeogul eventually allowed the potion to be used.

There was still a lot of work left to do, so I tried to limit its use, but I could see that my subordinates were getting tired.

Clink!

Roaring!

A potion bottle was thrown into the aisle, and blue flames rose. The approaching Undead hesitated, not daring to approach.

As Bakdeulgul and his subordinates entered the undead world, of course they had prepared accordingly. The < Pasar (破邪) Fire Potion > was worth the high price.

“Disposal… no what!!”

The subordinates shouted.

The undead, who would not normally be able to approach the flames, suddenly started running at them, risking being burned by the flames as if they had eaten something wrong.

As if something scarier than flames were chasing from behind.

“I will kill the alchemist bastard!”

“Divide in half to respond!”

Swearing and shouting, the subordinates dealt with the monsters with all their might.

an hour later.

Bakdeogul’s men moved forward, drenched in blood, filth and sweat.

“…I can’t. Let’s go out for a while and come back in.”

“thank you!”

Originally, it was late and there was no time to relax, but the battle was intense even though it was intense.

If he continues to push forward like this, no matter how loyal his subordinates are, there will be no resistance.

Bakdeogul gave up and decided to leave for a while.

“Rest…”

“Put away your weapons and raise your hands, adventurers! If you disobey, I will attack!”

“?!?”

Bakdeogul and his men were taken aback by the bloody encirclement near the entrance.

A dense siege was formed near the entrance, as if all the knights and soldiers were summoned.

‘This…!?’

It was unusual to see crossbows and bows aiming sharp with their aiming down.

This was different from a normal arrest.

“I don’t know why!”

“You are accused of arbitrarily attacking others in the dimension. Drop your weapons!”

“It is a misunderstanding! Self-defense to the end…”

There was a reason for Bakdeogul’s feelings of injustice.

Whether it was a dimension or a dungeon, it was a clear crime to attack another party.

But in practice, it was meaningless.

How to prove what happened inside?

Even if there was an investigation or interrogation, the party that caused trouble in this way would use cunning tricks to provoke the other party.

They used to push until the other person attacked and then claim it as self-defence.

As such, even if you hear testimonies that a fight broke out inside and that you were attacked, the response was usually lukewarm.

To the extent of giving a warning or banishing both.

However, these knights were trying to arrest them by bringing all the soldiers around them to see what they ate wrong this time.

This wasn’t a normal situation.

‘Should I kill them all?’

Bakdeogul felt his life squirm.

It was unbearable for the knights to keep fighting without knowing the topic.

Why the hell are these knights saying this?

“Finally, a warning. Drop your weapon or I will attack!”

“…Let’s drop the weapon.”

Bakdeogul gritted his teeth enough to bleed.

The siege was so dense and solid that if there was a fight, half of his men would die.

It was better to be arrested and then pay gold coins to be released as quickly as possible.

“Take your weapon, tie it up and lock it up! Lock them up separately so that they don’t play tricks on each other, and closely monitor them!”

“That knight. I have a question… Why are you imprisoning them like that?”

The soldier who was called from guarding another area tilted his head and asked.

Listening to what happened, they weren’t the ones who would react this severely.

At best, it seems like one or two testimonies about being violent or fighting in dimensions…

“You don’t know justice yet. We must subdue the suspicious beforehand to protect the innocent subjects of the Empire. In my opinion, they are very suspicious!”

“Is that so?”

‘I don’t think it looks that suspicious…’

the soldier thought so, but he didn’t ask further.

As they were knights, they believed that there was something in their eyes.

* * *

“Did you ask the knights for a favor?”

Diret asked in a surprised voice.

“yes. They seem to be quite violent, but it doesn’t look like there’s anything good about staying with them, so I asked the knights.”

“good job. But it won’t have any effect. I don’t know how to tell you in advance, but there’s a limit to what I can hold on to.”

There was a limit to the testimony that caused the fight.

In places like this, in most cases, no answer was given to who was at fault first.

“I’ll probably ask and answer questions for a few hours before being released.”

“I thought that was fine. If you continue to annoy me, I might get annoyed and withdraw.”

At Lee Han’s words, Diret laughed.

“okay. That would be nice.”

The two never thought that the knights outside made up their minds and locked them up.

“It’s Zone 2. Is everyone ready?”

At Professor Mortum’s words, the students nodded and stepped forward.

Dig!

With the feeling of the suddenly changing air, Lee Han could understand why the seniors said, ‘You will know when you feel the area within the dimension change’.

Even the color of the soil on the floor was different. The soil, which had been white until just now, had turned gray.

“Because the dark element is strong magic, the color will gradually become darker.”

“Hey, it’s wide!”

The student who passed through the aisle at the front let out an exclamation of joy.

After the narrow and winding road in the cave, the open wilderness came into view. Dark streams swayed in the starless sky.

Quick!

There was the sound of bones being crushed by someone stepping on them. Bones were everywhere like weeds.

“Coke. Good thing. A bone.”

“Is there anything that is not fortunate?”

“If you have a lot of poison instead of bones, it will be quite annoying.”

“aha.”

After understanding, Lee Han hesitated.

‘Isn’t poison more comfortable for me?’

“Why?”

“ah. I thought it was fortunate that it was a bone.”

“Coke. Don’t feel too fortunate. There are times when bones are annoying in their own way. Then let everyone move.”

Professor Mortum stuck his wand into the ground. Then the staff grew like a huge tree and turned into a sign.

“Everyone will remember, but I won’t say it again. Don’t move in haste, don’t move loudly, and colock. Don’t use a lot of magic and don’t go far.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

As if the seniors were used to it, they each started to move with their canes and baskets.

The seniors who entered District 2, not District 1, are students with some confidence and experience.

Unlike the group action in District 1, they were confident enough to take care of at least one of their own bodies, so each of them started moving in search of the materials they wanted.

“You come with me.”

“Thank you.”

Lee Han expressed his gratitude to Diret for his kindness.

Are you trying to protect your junior like this?

‘…I’m sure I can protect you… right?’

Diret was confused in the moment at Lee Han’s words.

When an enemy that that junior couldn’t deal with appeared, he wondered if he had the skills to stop it.

“…I don’t know how to protect you, but I can teach you how to find your way in the undead dimension. Believe me. Junior.”

“Wait, why do you say you don’t know how to protect me…?”

* * *

“Oh my God! Look at that junior! It’s a bone grave! Are you really lucky?”

“okay.”

“Poison Swamp!! Poison Swamp next door? Does this make sense!?”

“Is that so?”

“That’s…! That terrain itself is cursed!”

Diret, who was shouting excitedly alone, came to his senses belatedly.

In the eyes of juniors who didn’t know what that was, it seemed like a bit of a strange person.

“Ugh. What is that…”

“Senior. There are monsters over there.”

Lee Han stretched out his finger and pointed across the Poison Swamp.

A venomous predator the size of a troll, seemingly made from several undead species intertwined, was munching and swallowing poisonous mucus.

‘A guy like that comes out.’

I heard that the poisonous predator was a pretty strong monster, but I never thought I would see it like this.

It wasn’t just another dimension.

‘How do seniors deal with guys like that?’

“What should I do?”

“Big…”

“?”

“It’s a big deal…!”

Diret whispered with a pale face.

Originally, it wasn’t a monster you’d see around Area 2.
