Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 556

Chapter 556

“Are you all in? I go in too.”

Due to the large number of students who wanted to go, it was not possible to go all at once.

Lee Han divided the students and organized a party in turn. The first advance team to enter had to have excellent skills among students and be able to adapt to improvisation.

And, of course, Lee Han was also included.

Because both Salco and Giselle knew very well that without Lee Han, they would fight each other by the collar.

“Accounting will continue. If it closes, don’t even come here, go back to the dormitory and pretend you don’t know.”

“Woah Wo Danaz. But how can you…”

“The living must live. I can’t help it.”

Lee Han said firmly to his friends who hesitated in shock.

If the dimensional gate was closed, the students who passed through had to return to school on their own.

How can the students at school save them?

“Then… let’s go.”

Pod!

Stepping into the dimensional gateway gave me a feeling as if I had entered the spirit realm or the undead realm before.

A bizarre sense of having the same phase, but actually moving through a completely different dimension.

The moment that felt like eternity ended quickly, and the hallway of an unfamiliar mansion spread out in front of Lee Han.

“Wardanaz.”

“…everyone arrived safely.”

The friends who entered first nodded their heads nervously.

No matter how much it was, there was no student who couldn’t be nervous when they entered the villa of the skeleton headmaster.

“Everyone, stay calm.”

“Are you calm?”

“I am also calm. Wodanaz.”

‘Your hands are shaking…’

Seeing that Salko and Gisele were also nervous and shaking their hands, I thought I should relax.

“If you follow the plan, you won’t have to worry about getting caught. ruler. Take a deep breath everyone. I will quickly check the structure of the mansion, change my clothes, and then leave.”

“Do you really leave things in the mansion alone?”

“no. It’s crazy.”

Ratford made a sad face. Surprisingly, not only Ratford, but several of the other students were blatantly sorry.

It wasn’t simply because he coveted the treasures in the mansion.

“But Wordanaz. At this time or for the rest of my life, I might not be able to rob the principal’s mansion…”

“That’s right. If I go to the punishment room anyway, wouldn’t it be better to rob it and go?”

The desperation of not being able to steal the headmaster’s treasure at this time or for the rest of his life.

And since he jumped into this in the first place, he even promised that he was half prepared to go to the punishment room.

It wasn’t surprising if there were many students who thought, ‘Since this happened anyway, I’ll try to inflict as much damage on Headmaster Skeleton’.

However, Lee Han remained calm.

“no. Everyone goes according to plan. Ignore the words of the seniors. It’s about going in a direction that’s as unlikely as possible to get caught. got it?”

As Lee Han, who had the most experience in escaping here, he knew it well.

That there is nothing more dangerous than acting emotionally in an escape.

‘We need to figure out the structure as quickly as possible and get out of the city. The longer you stay, the more dangerous it is. Besides, if the treasure disappears…’

“Yes. listen to wodhanaj This guy is the one who escaped the most. If you’re cunning, there’s no one who can follow you.”

“If nothing else, I’ll approve of Wardanaz’s criminal prowess.”

“Thank you everyone. … for a moment. Did you just swear at me?”

At Lee Han’s question, Salchow and Giselle shook their heads at the same time.

“no.”

“no. There is a misunderstanding.”

“I think I was swearing… Anyway, let’s move. Everyone stay close.”

Lee Han, who gathered his friends close and prepared to perform the invisibility magic, froze.

Mercenaries appeared from the other side of the hallway.

* * *

Imperial Prejudice Many people thought that mercenaries were no different from criminals.

During the day, they hold their weapons and listen to the client, but at night, they aim their weapons backwards and plunder the client.

Of course, the mercenaries jumped at such prejudice and denied it.

-What kind of harm is done to the soldiers dedicated to justice, from the snowy mountains in the north of the empire to the blazing deserts in the south of the empire!

-Of course, one of my colleagues was caught attacking the client, but that’s only part of it!

-that’s right! A colleague of mine was caught stealing last time too, but that’s a very exceptional case!

Unfortunately, the mercenaries who were captured by the Skull Headmaster’s Death Knights were included in this exceptional group.

Originally, they lived in strict compliance with the imperial laws, but due to several misunderstandings and misfortune, these people appeared to have committed a crime.

So when they were captured by the Death Knights, they protested violently.

-If you don’t release it right away, I’ll tear your master to death, undead!

-This despicable magician bastard, a black magician juggler who steals while digging up graves!

Then, when the Death Knights revealed the identity of the owner, the mercenaries protested more politely.

-…However, isn’t this too much!

-If you have to deal with a wizard, you can do it now!

Then, as the Death Knights locked the warehouse doors and brandished their weapons against the rebels, the mercenaries’ protest became much more sophisticated.

-How much more do you need?

-Should I be more prepared than now? For any mage, this should be enough. If you put an arrow into the neck of the wizard…

Of course, no matter how sophisticated the protest, the Death Knights did not easily release the mercenaries.

– Shut up. It is still far away. Among the opponents you target, there are wizards who are more skilled in battle than you can imagine. to be more diligent.

-Oh no…!

As time passed, the Death Knights selected only mercenaries that met the criteria and moved them to the villa.

Even though they had passed the test, the mercenaries’ anxiety only grew.

-What the hell are you doing with us? Could it be that you’re trying to assassinate another wizard?

-Damn it, if it’s an assassination, even if it succeeds, there’s no way we’ll be spared!

– Those who got eliminated might have already been cursed by the wizard and turned

into stone statues… Even a mouse bites a cat when cornered.

Even more so, they were violent mercenaries who were caught committing crimes.

It was only natural that they prepared to escape without waiting for the Death Knight’s instructions.

But escaping wasn’t easy.

– You bastard. Saying you have over 10,000 different locks and you can’t even open that flimsy front door?

-Shit, do it yourself! What the fuck did you do? I’m never going to open it! It looks like some kind of iron was put into it!

-Wall I climbed the wall and threw myself, but it bounced off as if there was a wall.

-It’s clear that the wizard cast a spell in the air. crazy guy!

– Let’s dig! Digging the ground to escape.

– The ground is also blocked… To put a spell on the basement too. Crazy wizard bastard!

All the mercenaries could think of escape was blocked.

Knowing that, the Death Knights who came every evening didn’t care if the soil was dug up or the front door was scratched.

The skills of the mercenaries were checked, and if they did not improve, they were punished mercilessly.

– It means to practice when you have time to do useless things. Garbage!

– Why don’t you know that with your skills, you can’t even penetrate the wizard’s summons!

The more the Death Knights suffered, the more the mercenaries clung to escape.

You don’t know what to do if you stay here any longer!

– Let’s search inside the mansion. Maybe the wizard forgot something.

-Find everything. From behind the mirror to under the bed. Search all over!

– Can I go inside? I think the Death Knights told me not to go in…

-It’s been a while before they come back. Go in! It’s a life that will die anyway

The mercenaries who boldly ventured into the forbidden areas of the mansion and searched.

The valiant search ended absurdly.

A group of Einroguard students were waiting in the hallway at the end of the stairs.

* * *

“……”

“……”

Both the students and mercenaries froze in silence.

As much as they hugged each other, their heads stopped.

‘Did you hear it!? who are those guys? Are you the principal’s minion?’

‘Did you hear it!? who are those guys? The magician’s subordinates?’

The students contemplated whether to retreat to the dimensional gate or to push out of the mansion and escape, prepared for punishment.

The mercenaries wondered if they should retreat now or subdue the magician’s subordinates and take hostages.

And Lee Han was the first to act.

“Attack!”

“what?”

“Attack. Rush, Perkuntra’s thunderbolt!”

When lightning strikes the corridor with Lee Han’s spell, the mercenaries realize that they have made a big mistake in confusion.

Losing the first attack against a wizard!

‘It’s a big deal!’

“Take those bastards and hold them hostage… Coke!”

A mercenary who was about to declare an attack one beat late was pierced by lightning and collapsed.

It seemed that his whole body was shaking and he couldn’t get up properly.

“Shield forward!”

“Room shield man! okay. Forward the shield!”

Ironically, it was thanks to the Death Knight who overworked them that the mercenaries, who were embarrassed by the fact that they had lost their first attack against the wizard, were able to move systematically.

Thanks to the rigorous training to deal with the wizard, he was able to move instinctively even in this situation.

The mercenaries who were carrying tough wooden shields treated with anti-magic stood in front of them and quickly hit the shield wall.

And the mercenaries behind them prepared a ranged attack. The crossbow was loaded and poisoned daggers were drawn.

Seeing this, Lee Han’s expression also changed sharply.

‘Are they trained after all!’

“Woah Wo Danaz. Is it really okay to attack randomly like this?”

“They are criminals caught by the principal anyway. Attack!”

“what? How do you know that… I know. attack! Attack!”

The reason Lee Han took the lead was simple.

It was because I had seen those mercenaries before in a warehouse outside the city.

Criminals brought by the skeleton headmaster to attack the new students.

As far as I knew, there was no need to hesitate on this side. Aren’t they the ones who fought at school anyway?

“Farm mist, rise up, warriors made of bones!”

Lee Han quickly swung his staff to bring fog between the corridors and summoned the skeleton warriors to advance.

As the dark skeleton warriors formed formations and advanced in the fog, the mercenaries felt strong pressure.

In the blink of an eye, things have changed once again!

“This is…”

“Uh… how…!”

The mercenaries thought the Death Knights were being pushy when they cavorted and abused their tactics.

– slow and dull Besides, is there a way to prepare? You’re dealing with a wizard with just that!

As they were seasoned mercenaries, it was because they had also faced wizards on the battlefield.

Most wizards did not show a strong appearance in a sudden battle situation.

The casting speed is slow, the surrounding boundaries are poor, and when an attack comes in, it doesn’t respond well… I

thought that if I blocked the magic once, I would be able to counterattack and subdue it from then on.

However, the magician in front of him didn’t give a chance at all.

When this side increased their defense and took time, they quickly raised their defense according to their tactics and prepared for a long-term battle.

When he saw the skeleton warriors advancing through the fog, his thoughts became complicated.

‘Should I fight? How strong are these guys?’

‘Can I break through this and get to the spellcasters?’

At that moment, the magic baptism of students began to fly.

While Lee Han was wasting time, the students’ magic was completed.

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam!

“Heuk!”

“Keuuugh!”

Although they were putting up a barrier against magic, there was no shock as more than a dozen wizards blocked the wild magic.

There were mercenaries whose shields were broken or were blown away by impact.

Giselle looked at Lee Han slightly as she watched her collapsing opponent.

‘The real criminal must be…?’

I suspected that Wodanaz might have simply shouted out that he was a criminal to make it easier for him to attack.

‘…I don’t think so. There’s no way to check right now.’

“They run away!”

The students shouted when they saw the enemies at the end of the hallway hurriedly fall into the stairs.

Lee Han coldly gave instructions.

“Hold on! Don’t miss a single one!”

“…Wardanaz. Are you a real criminal?”

“Are you a criminal? Salco. Why do you keep asking useless questions?”

“Oh no. Nothing.”
