I Woke Up and Became a National Hero (2) No matter how close a battle for the nation’s fate might draw, Madam Canton’s painstakingly prepared afternoon tea was delicious. Puff choux filled with orange-scented custard, Victorian cake with jam and fresh cream, and tiny cucumber sandwiches—all were delicious enough to warrant admiration. Though simple in appearance, each one had rich flavor and excellent ingredients. Paired with bergamot-scented tea, it was a taste from heaven. Behemoth, not…

I Woke Up and Became a National Hero (1) Behemoth meowed and perched neatly on Cleio’s knee. The weather had turned to autumn, chilly enough to make the cat feel like a cozy heater. Cleio, sluggishly leaning his back against the headboard, blinked his bleary eyes. As his vision finally cleared, what appeared before him was strange. Second floor, far left bedroom in the Aser estate. His familiar room was buried in splendid flower baskets. ‘What’s with all the flowers?’ Before he…

By some stroke of luck, Cleio Aser saved the capital. He had tied the entrance of his subspace pouch too tightly, so he still could not retrieve the luminous stones. The beast, having missed its target, landed on the ground, then turned its body and targeted Cleio again with a growl. Clutching the pouch he was opening, Cleio dripped cold sweat. ‘What do I do? Uwaaaahh.’ The moment the wolf lowered its body to pounce, his mind went blank. Only one magic formula came to his mind: and…

For a man and woman sitting face-to-face in a cozy café, their conversation was extremely dry. Of course, the looks they gave each other were as affectionate as those between lovers. It was a happy alliance: one a possessor of information, the other someone who could convert information into money. Cleio, too, took a sip of the liquor left in his glass. The sharp sting of anise seemed to clear his sinuses completely. The strong green liquor they’d found at a shabby bar-cum-café in the…

Cleio Aser, who registered at age 17 (5) The next afternoon, as Cleio was taking a nap after returning from his classics class, an uninvited guest woke him up. It was a hotel page sent by Katarina, Chel’s mother and a hotel entrepreneur. The page brought a sealed envelope. The envelope was made of thick paper and decorated with elegant patterns. The page himself was tall and wore the De Neige hotel chain’s uniform, not a wrinkle in sight. ‘She certainly is someone obsessed with…

Cleio Aser, who registered at age 17 (4) “Such things happened a few times. When I was twelve, on the day a boy I didn’t know opened the door in the successor’s room that Ishiel used to use. Even though I saw him for the first time, his face looked familiar. The sickly child ghost that came out of Ishiel’s room looked exactly like that. The kid was Ishiel’s sixth cousin, and the ‘male’ heir that nobody wanted. What I saw wasn’t a ghost, it was just the future.” Arthur…

Cleio Aser, who registered at age 17 (3) That was as far as Arthur went. Rosa effortlessly parried Arthur’s heavy attack. The missed strike hit the ground, carving a groove out of the solidified earth. Arthur, unable to control his own strength, also slipped and rolled on the dirt. Without a sound, Rosa’s sword touched Arthur’s nape. “Waaa!!!” “Waaa!!” “Ooooh!” The children and instructor, who had been watching the spar from a distance, cheered wildly. Rosa, who…

“Not getting up, Francis?” “Well, is it something to be proud of? Do I really have to stand and introduce myself?” His voice alone was grating. It was like his every word was laced with sarcasm. Cleio, sitting at the very back by the window, stretched his neck to find the owner of the voice. A gray-haired boy lounged back against his chair, not bothering to sit up straight. The boy’s appearance was a sight. His jacket was missing somewhere, several buttons of his waistcoat were…

Cleio Asser, who registered property at seventeen (1) “No, even without using magic you’re not going to run away….” “Ah, you’re messing up my magic formula, so stay still, will you. ” formula lit up the room, enveloping Cleio and Dione. Behemoth absently watched the magic circle, scratching his belly with his back leg. “Eooooong, nyaek (They’re making a scene as if they’re debating national affairs or something).” Within the magic barrier, Dione shouted with a big,…

They didn’t even look alike down to their toes. ‘Damn, why does the story jump around like that!’ Suppressing his dizziness, Cleio barely managed to sit up. After bowing his head in gratitude to Isiel who had tended to him, he turned on 「Perception」 again. He examined Arthur closely with a completely new feeling. He thought he only needed to watch out for the 1st and 2nd princes, but even the protagonist, who was supposed to be righteous, had a dog-like twist. “Say that again,…

“Professor Garcia. I don’t know exactly what’s going on, but it’s all my fault. Please calm your anger.” “I’m not angry.” Professor Paselet Craer apologized just in case. Of course, Professor Garcia didn’t understand. “People who say they’re not angry are never really… Wait, you’re actually fine?” “Yes. That’s why I said he’d be fine at that level.” Professor Paselet looked Lee Han up and down, then asked Professor Garcia, “Is he the…-

“If we set a fire…” The White Tiger Tower students whispered among themselves. It looked like they were seriously considering Gainando’s suggestion. “Forget it, idiots. If the library could be closed down by a first-year setting a fire, it would’ve been destroyed long ago.” Giselle said bluntly. The White Tiger Tower students openly showed their disappointment. Still, Gainando didn’t give up. “If we set a bigger fire… Would it work if Lee Han did it?” “Hey,…

The carriage flew like an arrow. It felt like hardly any time had passed, but the main gate of the magic school was already visible in the distance. Lee Han felt a familiar sense of warmth, as if he had returned home for a moment. And then he got goosebumps. ‘Did I get hit by a mental magic or something?’ A lot of the snow has melted. There was a gentle regret in the Skull Principal’s voice. Lee Han cursed inwardly. “It melted faster than I expected.” Yes. I thought it would…

Episode 212 ‘Is there no other way.’ Without even noticing Lee Han’s inner thoughts, the Skull Principal thought to himself. Ogonin was not the kind of wizard who would obediently impart his teachings just because he was threatened or humiliated, but seeing him act like this… It was clear that Lee Han’s polite behavior had moved him quite a bit. It was a shame he couldn’t embarrass him further, but if he conceded this much, there was nothing to be done. After all, it was none…

‘By any means necessary.’ Unlike Klvik, who felt sympathy for Lee Han and intended to subdue him gently, Lee Han was 100% serious. In fact, if a freshman didn’t go all out against a high-level illusion mage, that would be crazy. He had cast as many enhancement spells as possible before the duel began. Those enhancement spells explosively boosted Lee Han’s already trained physical abilities. The skeleton principal thought to himself as he watched his student run at high…

A massive black circle spread out from the skeleton principal. The world inside that black circle transformed into a space completely different from the world outside. A separate space that rejected the order of the world, where the sun rises and sets, and the moon waxes and wanes. ‘Personal World!’ Imperial magic was commonly classified by circles. Circle magic, which assigned numbers based on the number of steps required for a mage to cast a spell, was widely used throughout the vast…

You’re probably at least vaguely pondering it by now. What must you do to reach the truth? Which path should you walk? ‘…I haven’t.’ He had thought about which government post would be good, but he hadn’t worried about how to reach the truth. But Lee Han stayed silent. The skeleton principal was being serious, and there was no benefit in revealing that he was thinking about government posts. Considering the hostility some professors had shown toward bureaucrats last…

“…Should we break his leg or something?” “Wouldn’t it be better to break his arm than his leg?” “Gainando, are you serious? Be worried for real.” “I wasn’t the only one, Meikin did it too!” Lee Han barely managed to solve the cold problem and return to the dormitory, but the Blue Dragon Tower students couldn’t purely rejoice. Their friend was about to be dragged away by the evil lich at dawn. “W-well, since it’s a one-on-one meeting with the principal, it could…

Episode 207 Excellent. Even though the honorable crown had been scratched, the voice of the Frost Giant King was gentle. It was because he was satisfied with what the challenger had shown. He had wondered how the crown’s defense would be pierced, but to think he would use evaporation, an advanced application property of the water element. Evaporation was such a tricky property that even mages who specialized in the water element often could not understand it. Even if one had sufficient…

“The King of Frost Giants is an honorable being who enjoys the rightful challenge of a worthy challenger.” Professor Voladi kindly explained when Lee Han looked curious. It was indeed the erudition befitting a professor. For a moment, Lee Han suspected that Professor Voladi had known in advance who was inside the twisted dimensional corridor. ‘It kind of feels that way.’ “I’ve… heard of him as well…” Direte said in a trembling voice. Among the beings who dwell in…
