Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 389
Chapter 389
“I had a vague guess.”
I was also feeling this.
Professor Voladi isn’t an expert in raising basilisks, and it’s not like he has other students…
…there’s a high chance that Yihan will be taking care of basilisks!
But that didn’t mean it wasn’t heartbreaking.
“Take care. It is a very valuable experience.”
“Ah yes.”
“It’s a good experience, it’s a valuable experience, why should I have such an experience?”
Thunderstruck Professor grumbled as if it were nonsense. Then, the lightning-walking professor was dumbfounded by what he was talking about.
“Think about it. When and where else would you like to experience caring for and raising basilisk eggs? And how helpful will that experience be? If you do that well, other snake monsters in the empire will feel like children.”
‘I’m sure it’s like that.’
There were countless monsters in the empire, but there was no need to prepare for snake monsters in advance.
Isn’t it just a matter of not going there?
“It seems to me that it’s only right to avoid dangerous places or leave it to a snake expert…”
said Professor Wooreeul, holding out a basket full of food to Lee Han. There were several jars of canned food with cheese, salt, sugar and honey pickled fruit.
“What is it?”
“Take it and eat some. I’m sure you’ll be late and busy.”
If it was Lee Han, even if he came two weeks late, he could catch up with the progress of other students, but it wasn’t difficult.
If I think about what I have to do in the second semester, I had to eat a little.
Lee Han was honestly impressed.
There weren’t many professors who did this.
“professor…!”
“joy. Don’t be mistaken. It’s because you did a good job.”
“thank you.”
Lee Han lowered his head and took out the canned goods he had hidden in his arms and put them back in the basket.
Seeing this, Professor Wooreeol glared at Lee Han.

Dinner.
Lee Han prepared a simple dinner using food brought from the hut and garden.
It was more plentiful than the meals given at school, but there were definitely empty corners on the table as they hadn’t brought supplies from outside yet.
Priests weren’t people who actively hunted or gathered.
‘Mmm. It’s a bit conspicuous.’
Lee Han put the rice cake, meat, and asparagus through a skewer over the fire and grilled it before serving it to the priest.
“It’s still a bit regrettable, but I ask everyone to be patient until the next outing. Just go out and I’ll fill it up and bring it back.”
“What… just now is enough!”
“you’re right! If you eat more extravagantly here, you will be punished.”
The priests ate boiled potatoes, vegetables, spices, and rice in a hurry and said,
Lee Han was unknowingly happy at that admirable appearance.
‘The Blue Dragon’s Tower should see and learn from that.’
Just a moment ago, while preparing, I thought, ‘I’m worried that the Blue Dragon Tower guys are eating well’, but after seeing the priests, I changed my mind to ‘I’m sure they’ll take care of themselves’.
“really. Han Lee. Would you like to go get assigned together?”
“The time has already passed. I will.”
Yihan listened to Sharukal’s words and nodded. Sharukal hurriedly dragged Yihan down, fearing that the other priests would notice.
“Why are you in such a hurry?”
“It’s annoying if the other priests notice… No, originally, I was supposed to go and get a new shift, but I’m a little late.”
“I don’t think it’s that late…”
– Where did Lee Han of the Wardanaz family go?
-well? Didn’t you enter the tower for a while?
-Wait a minute, Priest Sharukal went to get assigned! You think you went together?
– Go after it!
“……”
Lee Han stared at Sharukal. Sharukal pretended not to see his gaze and ignored it.
“Let’s go quickly!”
“Don’t priests hate lies…?”
When they arrived in front of the main building, the waiting undead greeted Lee Han and Sharukal.
– You arrived quickly.
“……”
-By the way, why is the blood of the Wodanaz family among the priests?
“There are circumstances. If you ask the principal, he will know.”
-ah. Does the master want to bully the Blue Dragon Tower students?
“…not so… no. Am I right?”
-Well, the first year of the Blue Dragon Tower had a very comfortable last semester. The owner also cursed at me several times.
“……”
Lee Han decided to pretend not to hear.
While we were talking like that, other top students also arrived one by one.
Unlike Lee Han Sharukal, the faces of the other top students were full of tension.
Lee Han waved his hand and called his friends.
“Did you have a good dinner? Did Guinando deliver the ingredients properly?”
The friends found Lee Han and started crying instead of shaking hands together.
“Woah Wo Danaz…! Big! Please come back!”
“…Did Gainando cook?”
“no. Gainando didn’t let me cook…”
said the Blue Dragon Tower student with tears in his eyes.
Lee Han said he was careful, but there was a blind spot in that idea.
Even if you don’t let Kainando cook, it doesn’t mean that the other friends are good at cooking!
The Blue Dragon Tower students made all the mistakes beginners would make: burning, seasoning incorrectly, and mixing ingredients that didn’t match.
No matter how much a student like Yoner who excelled in alchemy tried to control it, there were limits.
-Reduce the intensity of the fire! Reduce the fire count!
-why? Isn’t it better if the fire is high because it cooks faster?
-Measure the salt properly and put it in!! Just don’t spray it!!
-uh? Did you just spray wordanaz? Aren’t you doing it by feeling?
– What a sensation it is to do it for the first time!! there! No more water! I told you that vegetables are high in water, so that’s enough!
“Why don’t you change the tower name to Hungry Blue Worm Tower?”
“We are not like that. Whoops.”
The White Tiger Tower students who were listening from the side suddenly became arrogant.
Of course, it was absurd to Lee Han.
‘What do those kids who can do nothing but bake say…’
He was better than the Blue Dragon Tower students, but that was what a human being should do better, and the White Tiger Tower students weren’t great at cooking either.
He knew it well after hearing it from Moradina Durgyu.
– Caught a rabbit!
-Oh… let’s bake!
– I brought you some bread!
-Oh… let’s bake!
-I bought some fish!
-Oh… let’s bake!
-I brought some spices and sugar. Can I make something with this? Kind of like what Wodanaz did. It was delicious.
– There’s something good. Sprinkle after baking.
Bastards who only know how to bake!
‘Well, what about baking?’
“You just eat them raw. Don’t just cook.”
After confirming that all the students were gathered, the undead opened its mouth.
-fist. Everyone has gathered. So let me explain what you have to do this week. First… the 3rd year students tried to rob the kitchen on the 4th floor and failed, and there was a fire inside, and we have to clean it up.
One of the students raised his hand and asked.
“Uh… but why don’t the seniors in the third grade clean it up?”
-That’s a good question. The 3rd year seniors are cleaning up the accident caused by the 4th year.
“……”
“……”
-And next… Any students who have been to the forest of the stream south of the main building?
“I’ve been.”
One of the White Tiger Tower students answered. Lee Han saw it and felt an ominous feeling.
-I see… You didn’t tell me to go there yet, so you sneaked in? I’ll remember your name
“Oh no…!”
‘also.’
I couldn’t even be bothered to answer.
-Anyway, pests are infested. They’re not that strong, so you’ll have to go and deal with them. Next… the second floor storage room organizer. It seems to take a long time because there is so much clutter.
“!!”
When the friends paused, Lee Han asked, puzzled.
“Why are you surprised?”
“ah. That came out last week too. The people of the White Tiger Tower were in charge.”
“Right.”
Lee Han looked at the students of the White Tiger Tower and asked.
“How was that?”
“Ugh. It wasn’t too difficult. Wodanaz.”
“I couldn’t finish it because there was a lot of food, but…”
Lee Han immediately noticed the wavering eyes.
‘It must have been difficult.’
Looking at the reactions of the White Tiger Tower guys, it was clear that there was a lot of work and it was hard.
If it wasn’t for that, they would have done it again.
-ruler. then i will share
The undead made lots and lots and flew them one by one. Sharukal grabbed Lee Han’s wrist and said seriously.
“Lee Han. How about praying to Agltakwa?”
“Uh… wasn’t that the god of seas and storms?”
I had never heard of Agltakwa presiding over the drawing of lots.
“yes. However, the power of Agltakwa is great, so if you believe in it and pray…”
Lee Han spread out his lot.
Tidy up the 2nd floor storage room.
“……”
“…Come to think of it, you don’t preside over the lottery.”
* * *
“I’m so sorry. I think I picked the hard one.”
“no. What is hard or easy in this kind of work?”
“that’s right. Rather, the hard work is more rewarding.”
‘I can’t adapt.’
Lee Han was troubled by the words of the priests.
The students of the Blue Dragon Tower would have been openly brazen, but the priests here were so nice that there were times when it was a bit painful.
As soon
as I opened the door, a huge garbage dump greeted the students.
I don’t know who stacked it up, but it was a warehouse full of all sorts of odds and ends.
The topography inside Einrogard changed when bored, and in this way, the space secretly used by numerous students as storage would suddenly pop out.
And now, if left alone here, the space could suddenly explode, scattering trash everywhere.
It had to be removed as quickly as possible.
“…for a moment.”
Lee Han, looking around the mountain of clutter, found a cloth covering the corner next to it.
When the cloth was removed, there was a new pile of rubbish in it.
That in itself wasn’t that surprising, but…
‘It looks like this garbage dump hasn’t been around for a while.’
Feeling suspicious, Lee Han checked the top of the garbage pile.
Then, the broken wooden swords often used by the students of the White Tiger Tower came out.
“..I think the White Tiger Tower guys hid trash here because they were annoying while cleaning.”
“Oh…”
“We have no choice but to work harder.”
The priests said as if they were sorry.
Lee Han stared at the priests, thought for a moment, and then said.
“Can I get the tower for a minute?”
“Sure. Have a nice trip.”
* * *
“I don’t have to worry about stream forest. No dangerous guys. I’ve been hunting many times.”
“okay?”
A white tiger top student who had been in the forest said confidently.
“okay. There are absolutely no dangerous monsters here!”
puck!
Lee Han overpowered one of the White Tiger Tower students with a magic spell from behind, then aimed his staff at another student.
“Raise your hand. The moment you move your finger, it will break in one place.”
“Woah… Wodanaz!! you child! Earlier, I was teasing you for being a hungry worm tower…”
“What are you talking about?”
“…no?”
“The guys who cleaned the warehouse last week. Did you do it right or not?”
At Lee Han’s question, the White Tiger Tower student flinched.
It was the face of a person who could be stabbed by anyone.
“Ooh… we worked hard.”
“Right. Take two steps to the right.”
“Why why?”
“Because if you pass out there, you might fall into the stream. You don’t want your clothes to get wet.”
“…actually… I used a little bit of a shortcut…”
“I see. Two steps to the right…”
“Just a little bit! Really a little bit!”
