Life of a Magic Academy Mage - Chapter 668

Episode 668 Lee

Han cursed inwardly, but from the point of view of his friends, it was inevitable.

When the hunters asked, ‘Can you do that too?’, you couldn’t lie and say ‘yes!’

After landing, the hunters tied up the poachers and took their gear.

“Keep walking east. If I look back, I will shoot.”

“Please give me back the armor…”

“No.”

Lee Han agreed with the adamance of the nameless hunters.

Aside from weapons, taking other equipment might feel like overkill, but the Empire’s poachers were as persistent and vile as their prey.

Couldn’t it be possible to run into poaching again after hiding other weapons around here?

I have to get rid of all my equipment, I have to go down the mountain crying and eating mustard…

“Poachers’ equipment is bad luck, so you have to throw it away.”

“……”

For superstitious reasons different from what he thought, Lee Han lost his words and put on a confused expression.

‘hmm. But the result is the same.’

Lee Han thought he should stop observing the hunters and set up a campsite.

The hunters had been trying to hide their faces with their coats whenever Lee Han looked at them.

I don’t know what tradition means, but I didn’t feel very good.

“Doesn’t Lee Han think that you will use the petrification curse?”

Pawnrig grunted and nodded in agreement.

The basilisk tapped his wrist with his tail as if to say not to worry.

‘Isn’t it because of these two?’

Lee Han looked at the two with a slightly suspicious look, but didn’t say anything.

Both of them were quite narrow-minded, so they could get angry if they spoke out.

“Let’s prepare a campsite.”

At Lee Han’s words, Yoner tied up his hair and flipped it over and called his friends.

It was to divide the work.

“First of all, the wall…”

“I’ll do it.”

“The pit in front is…”

“I dig it.”

“Securing drinking water…”

“I’ll make it.”

Yoner stared at Lee Han. Lee Han was embarrassed and asked.

“Did you take a little too much?”

“If you take on three out of three, it’s not a little bit. Anyway, Lee Han, be quiet now. I’m going to make a light…”

“Oh. I guess I’d better do that.”

Yoner gestured to Cyana and Durgyu. The two dragged Lee Han out.

“He just used a lot of magic, so let’s just do it ourselves.”

“That would be better.”

Seeing Shiana’s answer, Gainando asked in an anxious voice.

“But what if it’s worse than the campsite Lee Han made?”

“Then you go out and sleep.”

“…Coming to think of it, it’s okay even if it’s a little bad. You don’t have to make the campsite perfect!”

two hours later.

After completing the campsite (Lee Han also sneaked out and helped his friends along the way), the students checked their surroundings.

“got it? Mountains are basically dangerous places. Even if you made a camp like this, you don’t know what kind of monsters might crawl in.”

Nilia pointed out harshly, befitting a hunter.

However, my friends didn’t seem too worried about it, despite the point.

The defense of the completed campsite was stronger than expected.

A moat to block the access of wild beasts and repelling herbs An alarm magic to prepare for an attack on the front gate of the camp by any chance

.

“The mountain range is a more dangerous place than Ein Rogard!”

“omg!”

Only then did the friends check the surroundings of the camp with nervous expressions.

Professor Lightning Walk and the hunters set out to check the nearby area.

Explorer Frostwalk will only check the back waterfall area and will be back soon, but at least until then, I had to make sure.

Lee Han wandered around the fort in a phone rig. Nilia was puzzled by that appearance and asked.

“What are you doing?”

“The smell of Griffon is buried in case monsters come. For weak monsters, this is enough.”

“……”

Nilia looked down at her palms.

Until just now, I was diligently clearing bushes and breaking tree branches to block the path of snake-type monsters… Come to

think of it, there was a better way.

“Could you lend me a basilisk?”

At Nilia’s question, the baby basilisk struggled as if she absolutely hated it.

“Did you smell the wyvern?”

A nameless hunter brought his hand to his mouth at the words of Professor Lightning Step.

It was a signal to turn down.

“Are there many monsters?”

Professor Lightningwalk took the advice and lowered his voice.

The mountains of the empire were dangerous places for various reasons, and there were various things to be careful of.

In the case of the Bitong Mountains, I had to be extremely careful with the sound from the section beyond the middle entrance.

There are many monsters that react to sound, so you have to be careful.

It was still the entrance to the mountain range, but seeing as the nameless hunters told them to keep their voices down, it seemed that a lot of monsters from the depths had come out.

“no. professor. That friend has a tradition of keeping quiet on even-numbered evening hikes.”

“……”

Professor Lightningwalk made an annoyed expression.

The nameless hunters were obviously excellent, but the dozens of superstitions they possessed made people irritable.

“I think it smells like a wyvern. The monsters are not approaching.”

“Even though I stole it like that, I can’t help it. I will have to hope that time will sort it out.”

The smell of the wyvern blocked the approach of other monsters.

Even the approach of a unicorn.

So, instead of putting the wyvern in the camp, they tied it down and the professor and the hunters tried to deodorize it with an alchemist’s potion…

but the smell is still weak. The Wyvern wasn’t an ordinary monster either.

“Let’s go around a bit more until the mountain range smells naturally.”

“Are the students okay?”

To Ranger Mranse’s question, Professor Lightningwalker replied as if he had nothing to worry about.

“It’s fine, there’s nothing to worry about.”

“Well, there’s also Mr. Frostwalk…”

“Ah. that’s right. He’s there too.”

“……”

Muranse was taken aback by the lightning-walking professor who belatedly recalled his relative.

Then, what did you just believe in and say it’s okay?

“It seems that Einrogard students are really trustworthy. Well, among my friends, there’s a guy named Esse. They said that the students of Einrogard are amazing. The 1st year students stacked several enchantments and smashed rocks…” “

I think they made fun of you? No matter how great the first years of Einrogard are, it’s not like that.”

“Is that so? No, Esse is not that kind of friend…”

“Anyway, Einrogard students will be fine. There are also reliable guys.”

The nameless hunters started whispering.

Even if he didn’t listen, it was obvious who was talking, so Professor Lightning Walk said as if he was annoying.

“I tamed the griffon and the basilisk by accident! There is no need to worry about strange superstitions.”

“A basilisk?”

‘Oops.’

The lightning-walking professor felt sorry for him.

Come to think of it, the hunters only knew that they had tamed the griffon, but they didn’t know that they had tamed the basilisk.

Nameless hunters whispered frantically. Mranse was worried that in some of the mountains of the empire, boys from the Wodanaz family would be banned from entering.

“There are more poachers than you think. professor.”

An unknown hunter who had gone out on patrol returned and reported with a serious face.

“Is that enough?”

“exactly. Rumors of unicorns seem to have spread a lot. The only ones wandering around right now have seen three groups.”

Mranse put on a worried expression at those words.

Finding a unicorn quickly isn’t enough, and wasting time with poachers.

Still, I couldn’t help it.

Among the proverbs of the star hunters in the wasteland, there was this saying.

Sometimes the way back is the fastest way.

“Let’s go to camp for now. Catch all the poachers first…”

“Huh? are you okay. Let’s check the area first. Keep in mind that the smell of wyvern has not gone away yet…”

“Professor Kyo. I know you want to find a unicorn, but I heard there are three groups of poachers.”

Mranse was perplexed.

Poachers were not simple, stupid bandits.

If you compete head-on with Einrogard students, of course you won’t be able to break through the magic storm and you’ll be crushed in pieces, but if the poachers find the camp, they will of course use cunning tricks.

Besides, since it had been some time since they had just arrived, rumors might have spread among the poachers about what kind of group the new group was in the mountains. Then the students were even more at risk.

There is no other entity as threatening as a hunter who knows his game well.

“I heard, it’s okay. ruler. let’s go.”

“Oh no…!”

“Because it’s okay. move everyone! We need to move faster considering the amount of time we will be interrupted by poachers!”

* * *

Zulvan the Poacher was a seasoned hunter in several mountain ranges, including the Bitong Mountains.

In fact, a good poacher had to be a good hunter.

How could he not excel when he sneaks into the mountains to escape the watchers of the empire, captures forbidden monsters, and brings them back.

As such, Zulvan also had excellent hunting skills.

However, Zulvan had an ability that other hunters did not have, and that was sociability.

For most hunters, their social activities consisted of taking their animals down the mountain to a village or city to sell.

But Zulvan was different.

Zulvan knew how to meet and trade with merchants looking for forbidden monsters in the city, and also know how to visit nobles who urgently sought those monsters and win favor with them, and also know how to entice wandering mercenaries and adventurers to work under them.

It was no exaggeration to say that poachers of this size were almost bandits.

“The explorers arrived with hunters and wizards?”

“The camp is already set up!”

“I can never hand over a unicorn…”

Zulvan sobbed.

There was not one customer looking for a unicorn right now. As long as you save the unicorn, a huge amount of gold will come rolling in so you can retire as it is.

‘But I’m really reluctant to run into wizards…’

“You don’t have to worry. Zulvan! There are guys who came to see the camp, but they are all young guys.”

“Is that true!”

“There are not even hunters in the camp right now.”

“!”

It was such a good opportunity that Julvan immediately wondered if it was a trick.

But when I thought about it, it was nonsense. Who would come looking for a unicorn and dig a trap like that?

“I will check it myself.”

Zulvan climbed atop a rock in the distance to check the campsite.

It was a well-made camp, as if to show off the presence of wizards, but as the subordinates said, there were clear gaps.

Unlike hunters, wizards had many geniuses who were active even at a relatively young age.

It was natural as long as they knew how to use magic, but it seemed like prey to seasoned poachers like Zulvan.

“good! I’m going to subdue the guys. Since you’re a wizard, the ransom will be fine!”

* * *

“You be patient.”

Lee Han appeased Ponrig when he got angry when he entered the temporary stable at the campsite.

After the smell was all over, Lee Han coldly put the phone rig into the stable.

He said that the unicorn doesn’t mind the smell of the griffon, but he didn’t know how to react when he saw the griffon.

The phone league protested, saying, ‘Do you treat me the same as a unicorn avoids low creatures like wyverns!’, but it didn’t reach Lee Han.

It’s annoying that someone keeps looking at me from afar…!

“Who keeps staring at me? Probably poachers. Don’t worry. I won’t come to you unless I’m crazy.”

– Are you by any chance wizards?

“!”

Lee Han was startled by the voice outside and climbed up the watchtower.

And then he cast his magic.

Pajijijik!
