Finding himself suddenly in a situation where he might be framed as the culprit after showing off a bit, Sarataans voice became even more urgent.

-Thats not what I meant, Master Mage! Please believe me!

Believe you.

-Yes!

You who tried to kill me and escape the moment we met.

-

Sarataan wanted to say When strong beings meet in another dimension, they might have a good fight with each other, so why are you still being so petty about that?

However, thanks to being attacked by the mage several times recently, Sarataans social skills had developed to a very advanced level for a great spirit.

-Its a misunderstanding!!

Wardanaz, its that spirit! We need to subjugate that spirit!

That arrogant and ungrateful bastard! Its not for nothing that Wardanaz ruled with force! We worried about him and this is how he repays our kindness?!

The friends from each tower angrily pointed at Lee Hans staff and shouted.

If Lee Han werent there, they would have immediately snatched the staff away to burn it themselves.

Everyone calm down first.

Wardanaz. You cant trust that spirit! Hell betray us again!

No. I told you to calm down because if we want to safely subjugate the spirit inside the staff, we need to go to a place with no people and cast shock-prevention magic.

The students couldnt help but admire Wardanaz, who had already finished planning how to subjugate it before they even tried to persuade him.

It was truly the brilliance befitting the top student of his year.

-No! You cant, Master Mage! Im in a sealed state, so if Im destroyed, Ill be gone forever!

Thats why you should have behaved well instead of stabbing me in the back.

-I didnt stab you in the back!!

Stop!!

???

When Jowrin screamed, all the students looked at her in surprise.

Your Majesty. Whats wrong?

Ah. It must have been hard for you to watch the spirit being tormented. Dont worry. Wardanaz will make it disappear properly where you cant see.

Thats not it Thats not it That was That was what Jowrin did!

!!!

Unable to bear the guilt any longer, Jowrin finally told the truth.

The students still didnt understand and asked again.

Your Majesty did it? Youre not saying that to protect the spirit, are you?

Youre so kind? Why is Gainando so different?

-Hey, you mage bastards! I told you I didnt do it!!

Sarataan screamed from inside the staff. Lee Han frowned as if it was noisy.

Your Majesty. Please tell us what happened. And dont worry. No matter what Your Majesty did, the students here wont be angry.

When tears welled up in Jowrins eyes, Lee Han comforted her. The students nodded in agreement.

Thats right. Your Majesty. Originally, accidents like this are like daily occurrences at Einroguard.

Lets just say that spirit did it? Were fine with that.

Everyone Everyone is so grateful!

Kek.

Jowrin burst into tears and tried to hug the students. If Lee Han hadnt laid down a telekinetic cushion in time, several students might have had their ribs broken.

Actually this is what happened

After crying for a while, Jowrin calmed down and explained the situation.

While doing so, she glanced around, worried that Lee Han might get angry.

This is Professor Bendozols fault.

Right. The spirit is also at fault.

In a way, its also the fault of the Principal who created such a magic school. Anyway, Your Majesty is not at fault at all.

Lee Han and his friends quickly distributed the blame to comfort Jowrin.

Jowrin shook her head.

No, no. Its not Professor Bendozols fault, not the spirits fault, not Gonadaltes fault It was Jowrin

-Master Mage. She says its not my fault! Cant you hear??

When Sarataan protested, Lee Han quietly infused mana. Understanding the warning, Sarataan immediately shut his mouth.

Honestly, Professor Bendozol is responsible. Thats what the position of professor is about, isnt it? Isnt that right, Professor?

Lee Han called on Professor Boladi as if asking for help.

Professor Boladi readily answered.

The position of professor is one that must take responsibility. Its Professor Bendozols responsibility.

See!

Is that so?

Jowrin, who had been blaming herself, became slightly interested when even Professor Boladi said that.

Originally, when young, everyone tends to be interested when told its not their fault.

What is everyone doing here?

Professor Willow Tree, who arrived late after hearing the Mandragons scream, was puzzled by the sight of students surrounding and comforting a large dragon.

***

Its Professor Bendozols fault.

After hearing the explanation, Professor Willow Tree firmly reached a conclusion.

If the professor had gone along, he should have stopped it or at least cleaned up the mess. What kind of behavior is this?

See. Your Majesty. Professor Willow Tree says so too.

Maybe, maybe it really is so.

I dont dare to advise the Principals rules, but dont you think someone like Professor Bendozol should stay in the punishment room longer Whether its really good to make someone a professor just because theyre an excellent mage.

Professor Willow Tree spoke in a wise voice filled with experience.

Lee Han became interested and asked.

Why did Professor Bendozol go to the punishment room?

Previously, he set fire to the Principals pasture Wait. First, I need to calm down the Mandragon.

Lee Han felt disappointed inside, but Professor Willow Tree focused on the urgent matter first.

After breaking the seal and entering the greenhouse, putting the overgrown Mandragon to sleep, and checking the plants damaged by the crying

It was an unbelievably fast pace for a professor who usually moved slowly.

Professor Willow Tree, who finished the work like a storm, came out with a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, theres no major problem. More importantly, Your Majesty. You managed to breathe your breath inside the greenhouse. Even though Professor Bendozol recommended it, it was dangerous.

Huh?

Jowrin was confused.

It seemed the situation explanation had been slightly distorted after passing through several mouths.

Breathing the breath was Jowrins choice, so why did they think Professor Bendozol recommended it?

That was Jowrins

Indeed. Professor Bendozol is truly evil.

?!

When Lee Han intervened and drove the nail in, Jowrin became even more confused.

When she looked at him in surprise, Lee Han nodded slightly.

Lets just say Professor Bendozol did it.

Jowrin was thrilled.

This is the survival technique of Einroguards mages?!

Ive put the Mandragon to sleep, so leave it as it is and harvest it when it settles down somewhat. That should be enough.

Wont there be any problems?

Since it was relatedto his grades, Lee Han tried to check the Mandragons condition.

Professor Willow Tree fell into thought for a moment. Lee Han also tensed up at that sight.

Is there a problem?

Too

Jowrin also seemed nervous as she made clicking sounds.

Something like it grew well?

Haha. Professor. You startled me!

At his disciples outcry, Professor Willow Tree smiled kindly.

If it grew well, what problem could there be.

Lee Hans mandragon had grown rapidly, but there were no problems with its composition.

It was thanks to raising it with nothing but the pure power of the sun, not with other elixirs or potions.

Hearing the praise, a smile formed on Lee Hans lips. Jowrins wings also fluttered along.

Hehe.

Hmm. Come to think of it, you wont have anything to do until the final exam, young boy. Its fully grown at this point.

Since they checked the mandragons growth during midterms and harvested during finals, it was practically finished already.

Lee Han spoke with a pretentious attitude.

I will tend to the greenhouse and help my friends.

Acting arrogant here would only result in a higher difficulty final exam assignment.

Lee Han was always humble.

But there was one thing Lee Han was mistaken about.

Even without acting arrogant, higher difficulty assignments would come anyway!

That would be fine too, but wouldnt it be too boring? Hmm. This works out perfectly. Try submitting this to the Empire Gardeners Club.

Lee Hans expression hardened at the premonition that an unnecessary assignment would be added.

Noticing this, Jowrins wings also stopped fluttering.

Is submitting to that club very difficult?

Growing plants is difficult, but submitting isnt that hard. I was planning to have students use the harvested mandragon directly anyway, or let them try selling the remaining amount themselves doing it early wouldnt be bad.

As explained before, excellent mages needed to know how to excellently gather excellent materials.

And Professor Willow Tree was an especially outstanding expert when it came to plants. You could tell just from the fact that she was a registered member of the Empire Gardeners Club.

Though the clubs name was simple, it was something only the Empires authoritative botanists could join.

Normally, mandragon grown by students couldnt even be submitted to the clubs auction house, but the mandragon Wardanaz had grown now was definitely special.

If it was a plant that had grown this much, the members would acknowledge the submission and compete to pay money for it.

They pay money?

Its an auction among members. It would be nice if other students mandragon could be submitted too, but that would probably be difficult.

They pay money!

Young boy. Did you perhaps mishear the mandragons scream?

Ah. Im sorry. I had something to think about for a moment. I didnt know that submitting to the gardeners club meant putting it up for auction.

Of course it will also be recorded in the clubs library. They keep very thorough records of plants. But at the same time, all the gardeners club members are people who are very greedy for plants Ah. If you want to try using it yourself, you can just submit the record without putting it up for auction.

No. Clubs have traditions and rules. It wouldnt look good for an outsider to ignore those. Wouldnt it also affect your reputation, Professor?

What admirable words you speak!

Professor Willow Tree laughed heartily, pleased with her disciple who even considered her reputation.

When the professor turned around, Jowrin spoke restlessly.

L-Lee Han. Because of Jowrin, you have to do additional work when youre already busy, right?

Your Majesty.

Lee Han spoke in a serious voice without a trace of laughter. An intense energy flashed in his eyes.

I sincerely thank you. Thanks to you, Ill be able to make a profit.

Jowrin was about to say Youre not lying to console me, are you? but was completely overwhelmed.

That absolutely could not be a lie.

I-I-I see. Thats good Jowrin is also happy

Huhu.

Why cant Lee Han give up his greed for gold coins even when hes so busy? Hell keep living at Einroguard anyway, so there wont be much occasion to spend them.

Thinking the same question that friends from other towers had harbored until now, Jowrin crawled along following behind Lee Han.

Ah. I almost forgot to mention.

Professor Willow Tree, who had entered the greenhouse, poked her head out again.

What is it, Professor?

Youve become quite close with the spirit. Unlike before when your relationship was awkward. Its really nice to see. Ive thought this from before, but you definitely had the ability to become friends with spirits!

Haha. Thank you, Professor.

-

Sarataan was so dumbfounded that he was at a loss for words.

He couldnt believe that he was in such an unreasonable hell.

Crazy bastard mages!
