      by Cristae Episode 1171 As seasoned black magicians, the Heirs sensed the hidden danger in the question. Even though it seemed like an ordinary question, there was something strangely chilling about it. “…Why do you ask that?” “Because I’m from the Einrogard School of Black Magic?” “!!!” The Heirs were appalled by that answer. A brat before their eyes, from the Einrogard School of Black Magic. So does that mean…?! “Don’t tell me, you’re Lee Han of the Wardanaz…

      by Cristae Episode 1172 The Most Cantankerous Hag, now curious, decided to investigate personally rather than sit idle. And as it happened, there was a mortal she had met recently. Let this old woman ask you a few things. “!” Lee Han, who was looking through architectural blueprints he brought along with Catten in their lodgings, was startled. Of course, anyone would be surprised if a powerful being from another dimension suddenly stuck their head in. “Is that the one you mentioned last…

      by Cristae That’s true. No wonder they fell. Wishing for the chance to mock them someday, the Most Cantankerous Hag feigned civility. If you want their heads, I’ll chop them off for you. It wouldn’t even be difficult. If only others were as spirited as you. My contractor will be pleased. A contractor? The evil god cult’s bishop was greatly surprised. For the Most Cantankerous Hag to lend strength to a mortal? Either she was truly fond of that mortal, or the Sanguiros lot had really…

      by Cristae ‘He’s right.’ Catten nodded absentmindedly. The Heir of Ahrak glared at him for it. “People are bound to make mistakes in life. Even more so for magicians.” “?” “??” Really? Lee Han and Catten exchanged puzzled looks. No matter how long they lived, it still didn’t seem like a mistake this disgraceful was inevitable. “You kids just haven’t tasted the bitterness of magic yet! As time goes on, you’ll understand what I mean.” “Ah. Yes. Then I’ll let…

      by Cristae Oblivious to Lee Han’s cold and merciless responses, the black magicians grew ever more heated. “Young whelp, you sure talk a lot. Is it your money building this? No, it’s the Patriarch’s!” “That’s why the Heirs of Ahrak don’t get commissions.” “It’s not that we don’t get them—it’s that we refuse the petty ones!” “Krrk (If you two are going to fight, can I just finish it)?” “Don’t you dare!” Half a day later. The black magicians stared at…

      by Cristae Episode 1176 Despite the chilly response, the Heirs of Ahrak did not waver. Black magicians who lived over a hundred years were fundamentally shameless. “Why do you say it’s impossible without even trying? Maybe it’ll work, right?” “Kurrrrk (Don’t pretend to be close, it’s embarrassing).” “Let’s just take out more of the spare money and buy it up. Donate to the Einrogard Black Magic School too.” The suggestion from the Obsidian Tower had a sharp edge. Lee Han stopped…

      by Cristae However, none of the Heirs of Ahrak could say, “I am the right person for this job!” It was because they all knew they were weak in the art of persuasion. This is the problem when a group doesn’t get any new members. Since only the same tiresome people are left to rot together, when matters like this arise, there’s no one suitable to send. “I’ll go and try persuading them.” “Don’t say crazy things. Ninth.” “Don’t even go outside. Just stay here in the…

      by Cristae “Ah…” Lee Han tried, flustered, to stop her, but the Most Cantankerous Hag was already gone. “Be quiet! Boy!” “Kruruk (Making noise while discussing magic, have you no manners)!” “……” Seeing black magicians sitting and occupying someone else’s desk as if it were their own and acting up, Lee Han wondered why he’d bothered trying to stop her. ‘I’d better remember to tell them later.’ Lee Han’s scheme was wicked, but in truth, the black magicians were no…

      by Cristae “Kruruk (Is he talking about the knights)?” “Don't play dumb… Of course I'm talking about you lot!” Direte shed his usual polite manner and snapped sharply. The black magicians present were taken aback by his attitude. The empire's black magicians didn't generally get along all that well, but on certain points, they shared some common ground. One of those was how they evaluated future students who would carry on the Imperial Black Magic School. A steady influx of talented new…

      by Cristae Professor Garcia wondered where to even begin to correct him. It wasn’t uncommon for Einrogard professors to go missing or abscond (Professor Bendozol was one such example), but even then, students didn’t post wanted notices throughout the Empire. If they did, Einrogard’s notoriety would have risen even higher. ‘Then again, would any student even look for a missing professor in the first place…?’ Usually, students would be sad if they liked the professor, but wouldn’t bother to…

      by Cristae Episode 1181 Lee Han picked up the box containing the cloth that scattered pitch-black darkness after sending his friends ahead. Because he went out several times more than other students, it was inevitable that he would attract the professors' attention. He had to give gifts while he still could. “But this cloth—what is it? It feels like some composite material…” “Right? I don't think it's something sold on the market, so did they take it out with the intention of using something…

      by Cristae Regardless, Lee Han didn’t pay much attention. It was truly evident that he had no interest in the black magicians. Instead, he hesitated over whether to take out the magic books related to the lectures he was currently attending. Titles such as -Forbidden Rituals of Black Magic-, -Basics of Spirit Use Clones-, and -Elemental Magic Commentary- briefly appeared from the lecture list. “Hmm, I’m not sure if I should ask for help like this. These spells are so trivial.” -Not at all,…

      by Cristae Though he’d done it several times already to no avail, the hamster once again squeaked and engraved that resolution in his heart. Lee Han put the hamster in his sleeve (the baby basilisk was highly displeased) and tried to head over to Professor Thunderstep’s Water Engraving Hall. He could have finished making it in his personal room, but the various facilities in the Alchemy School’s tower made it more convenient. …Sometimes, he could even borrow the professor’s reagents when…

      by Cristae “What’s that on your head??” Professor Thunderstep asked the question anyone would have upon seeing his student’s current appearance. Doing alchemical training with a hamster balanced on his head. It was like copying an old fairy tale, with an adventurer who inherited a ruined inn and couldn’t cook to save his life… “He’s a magician who infiltrated the school, but he turned into a hamster and is helping me.” -…… The hamster almost toppled off his head from the…

      by Cristae “Hmph. Wardanaz, I know your skills are great, but did you really make it properly?” ‘He sounds just like a Baldrogard villain.’ Lee Han glanced at the suddenly awkward professor, finding it odd. It was like one of those forced villain lines out of the senior’s textbook, Despicable Deeds Committed by Baldrogard Students. Honestly, Lee Han always thought that book was a bit exaggerated… “If I didn’t do it right, I’ll just make it again. It’s a difficult assignment, after…

      by Cristae Unfortunately, there was still a lot of time left before Professor Verdus’s lecture. The professors clustered together, checking the schedule posted on the board. Which unlucky professor would become the next target of the fired-up Wardanaz? “……” Professor Yonramo’s face immediately clouded over. Why does fate torment the good and let the wicked prosper? “…Professor Reji. Hang in there.” “Y-yeah. Verdus will have his turn soon enough. He’ll pay for those…

      by Cristae “Calm down. Nothing’s been decided yet.” Lee Han soothed the baby basilisk. The truth was, he still hadn’t decided what form to transform into for this class. That was why he’d gone to consult his fellow faction member Carnella… -Senior. I wanted to consult you for this -Practical Self-Transmutation- class… -You’re transforming!? Into what!? -That’s what I haven’t decided yet… -Let’s do unicorn! Great for polo matches! -You’re not just trying to use me as…

      by Cristae “Strictly speaking, it’s not impossible.” You might not understand it if you call it jealousy, but surprisingly, as you learn magic, these things happen sometimes. A phenomenon where one magic interferes with the execution of another. There were various reasons for it. It could be just a difference in difficulty, or because of rules imposed by extra-dimensional beings entangled with that magic, or because training in one magic makes it harder to practice another. “In order to…

      by Cristae Lee Han realized things were going in a strange direction. The reason he saved up gold coins was purely for a stable life and, someday, to invest in that one chance for a lifelong fortune in the Empire's commercial world. It was never about making his senior feel deprived. “I think there’s been a misunderstanding. Senior Jarun, you spend as much as you earn, don’t you? Last time I saw you prepping spells, you went through a lot of gold.” “Junior, saying it like that will just make…

      by Cristae Professor Thunderstep faced his student's forced criticisms with maturity rather than anger. He relaxed his gaze and smiled as kindly as he could. That made Lee Han instinctively more cautious. -I think I can feel a sinister aura. “I think so too.” Lee Han agreed with the baby basilisk. Indeed, as a monster that was the snake of snakes and harbored the deadliest poison, he was sensitive to dark vibes. Regardless, Professor Thunderstep focused intently on the blueprint…
