Chapter 929

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Lee Han didnt know, but right now inside the Fierce Beast, Sharkan was rampaging like mad.

When the Fierce Beast tried to simply refuse the contract and end things, Sharkans fury exploded.

Realizing that this ungrateful projections will was much stronger than expected, the Fierce Beast had no choice but to compromise.

Otherwise, there was a high chance another disgraceful scene like before would occur

At least the earlier disgrace had only been witnessed by mages, but if other beings from the undead realm happened to witness it, the Fierce Beasts authority and dignity would be greatly damaged.

-Mage. You can only summon this Fierce Beast on the longest night of the year No. Ill ease the conditions a bit.

????

Could it have gone mad? I heard it was severely injured.

As the other party kept saying something then taking it back repeatedly, Lee Han became even more bewildered.

According to Professor Mortum, the other party had been severely injured, and it wouldnt be strange if madness or amnesia developed during this recovery process.

If it was an injury severe enough for a powerful being from another dimension to suffer, that degree would surely be extraordinary.

Um. Senior. The other party doesnt seem quite right in the head.

I think so too. We should be more cautious.

When even Diret agreed, Lee Han was certain.

The other party was definitely somewhat mad!

Why are all the beings I contract with strange ones?

Having a thought that would make the other party extremely angry if it knew, Lee Han answered.

Then what are the conditions?

-Only in battles destined for destruction and slaughter No. Ill ease the conditions further.

It might be crazier than I thought.

The Fierce Beast changed its words several more times before finally settling on conditions.

It would respond to summons in exchange for mana only when Lee Han encountered formidable enemies difficult to handle.

And the Fierce Beast roared loudly.

-Wont you stop it, you stupid beast! No matter how young, youre still a projection of the Fierce Beast! Do you think Id accept such humiliating submission!

Excuse me?

-Its nothing.

The madness really seems severe. Junior. Never let your guard down even when summoning.

The two mages whispered while observing the Fierce Beast.

Unaware that the mages were having a sinister conversation beyond the door, the Fierce Beast breathed out deeply with dark breath.

It wanted to destroy everything for the sake of dignity, but the humiliation already experienced wouldnt disappear by doing so.

The Fierce Beast resolved to vent its anger later by tearing apart other enemies in the undead realm. Otherwise, it would be hard to calm its heart.

-The contract is finished, so get lost. Then what am I supposed to do? Should I treat those who didnt even come in person as guests?

Who are you talking to

-Get lost!

It has a worse temper than Perkuntra.

Lee Han thought he should gradually retreat.

He had confirmed Sharkans situation and received a new contract sigil, so there was no need to provoke the other party further.

Now that it had merged with its true form, he couldnt summon it easily for tasks like before, but still, Sharkan had become stronger, so it wasnt entirely bad.

Ah. Right.

May I ask one more thing?

-What is it?

Surprisingly, the Fierce Beast answered obediently without getting angry.

It intended to answer quickly and send them away, but Lee Han couldnt know that much.

Do you happen to know about undead that recently contracted with evil cult worshippers? I heard they use powers of corruption and decay

Even while asking, Lee Han didnt have high expectations.

Looking at the other partys personality, it probably didnt have many friends in the undead realm.

Moreover, having just recovered from fatal injuries not long ago, it was unlikely to know much about the surrounding situation

-I know. That one is the Blasphemer.

?!!

!

Not only Lee Han but even Diret was greatly surprised.

They hadnt expected to obtain information this easily.

The Blasphemer?

-A powerful and disgusting undead. It recently received tribute and contracted with mages. Thanks to that, its minions are organizing their forces

The Fierce Beast was skilled at infiltration and reconnaissance, befitting its title of death and darkness.

How long had it been since recovering its strength, yet it grasped information about powerful enemies in the undead realm so quickly.

This wasnt something just anyone could do.

The undead called the Blasphemer was a powerful undead like the Fierce Beast that ruled over a region of the realm.

This leaders corrupt and fallen subordinates were notorious for rotting all enemies they faced and thoroughly contaminating enemy territory once they went to war.

Direts brow furrowed slightly.

He had hoped it wasnt the case when he heard the enemy used powers of corruption and decay, but they had really finished contracting with a powerful undead.

Moreover, from what was being said now, that power wasnt the end. There was a high possibility that additional forces would be summoned.

This is more troublesome than expected. I didnt know progress had reached this level.

Indeed. If it seems like the Blasphemers subordinates will be summoned, could you warn me in advance?

-Mage. Ill tear you into ten thousand pieces Ill do it. This is really the last time!

Ah. Thank you!

He thought it would refuse, but when the other party changed its mind again, Lee Han expressed deep gratitude.

Though it had madness, the Fierce Beast seemed to have surprisingly generous aspects too.

***

Approaching the end of the weekend, the Blue Dragon Tower 2nd year common room was bustling.

Buy this for me when you go out. Ill pay double the price.

Am I your servant? Dont talk nonsense.

Since outings would open by clubs starting from the approaching weekdays, they were asking for errands from outside.

Upperclassmen had several means of receiving goods from outside, but such tricks were still too much for 2nd year students.

Of course, Blue Dragon Tower students didnt easily agree to such errands.

They were busy buying their own things, and above all, being from noble families, they wouldnt run errands just for some silver coins. This was a matter of pride.

What? Then Ill do it for you.

Wardanaz!

Double the price? Really? Is that okay?

Thanks to this, Lee Han could monopolize the market.

Taking notes of his friends generous errand requests one by one, Lee Han smiled contentedly.

All the Empires requests should be this easy.

Damn it. I could do it too.

Seeing Lee Han write down all his friends requests, Asan felt pangs of conscience.

His friend was taking all courses across schools while still helping friends with their requests, yet he was refusing becaus he was busy and it hurt his pride.

Ill help too. Wardanaz.

This despicable bastard!

Lee Han looked at the back of Asans head with subtle contempt and anger.

The friend who had just refused was suddenly stepping forward.

Seeing Lee Han raise income through monopoly, his thoughts had clearly changed.

Indeed, his friends had definitely become wiser now that they were 2nd years. They seemed to gradually realize the importance of silver coins too.

Finish it quickly. If you dont complete it by tomorrow, you cant go out!

I know that!

In the corner, students hastily making magic potions could be seen.

Thanks to club activities, they could legitimately skip lectures (actually, they could skip even without club activities), but that didnt mean the things students had to do disappeared.

If there was work in progress or ongoing, they had to finish it beforehand.

Thanks to that, Lee Han also had to do a weeks worth of work in advance over the weekend.

The animals and plants he cared for, the vegetable garden, the secret base, assignments he could do ahead of time

Yoner. Are you really not going to escape?

When his red-haired friends expression turned complicated at the casually thrown question, Lee Han was slightly flustered.

You dont have to escape. I was just asking.

Well

The Drama Club was under especially strict surveillance since the Skeleton Principal despised it so much.

It was enough to make Lee Han give up on joining after hearing the explanation

Of course, even without that, Lee Han had already joined too many clubs as it was.

Anyway, Einroguard students were always reckless and fearless by nature.

Even within the Drama Club, students were starting to say things like Lets escape midway and go get the things we need before coming back.

Thats only natural.

Lee Han nodded.

If you were human, you were naturally meant to struggle for freedom. It was all too obvious that Einroguard students who went outside would attempt to escape.

Wont it be difficult?

Yoner was negative.

Being realistic by nature, he felt the dangers inherent in the current situation more accurately than anyone.

When a dragon was waiting below with its mouth wide open, there was no need to jump down, was there.

But Meikin. If not this opportunity, itll be hard to replenish necessary items within the semester.

When Adenart quietly interjected from behind, Lee Han was inwardly surprised.

Wait. Was the Imperial Princess also in the Drama Club?

Thats right. Meikin. According to calculations, its worth trying. Either we get caught or we dont. 50%, 50%.

Even Asan!?

Lee Han was greatly surprised by the high rate of Blue Dragon Tower students joining the Drama Club.

These bastards. Instead of joining difficult clubs, they joined a club where they can just play around.

Of course, just because Lee Han was forced to join didnt mean his friends also had to be forced into difficult clubs, but it was human nature to feel somewhat wronged.

Rather than pointing out Asans nonsensical forced calculation, Lee Han nodded along.

Certainly Asans calculation is convincing. Either you get caught or you dont. 50%.

Gainando stared at the back of Lee Hans head from behind as if he couldnt believe it.

When he made calculations like that, Lee Han would get furious!

Wardanaz. What do you think?

Youre the biggest expert here, so you judge it. Wardanaz.

I dont know what you mean by expert, but I believe in your abilities.

Lee Han cheered on his friends with sincere eyes.

Neither Adenart nor Asan were the type to engage in hopeless battles like Gainando, so if they were saying this much, they probably had some kind of plan.

And even if they got caught, so what? That would also be good experience.

Yoner. You should believe in your friends too.

Youre not doing this because youre not escaping together with us, are you?

What nonsense are you talking about!

***

Hmm. Maybe Yoners words werent completely wrong.

In the early dawn before the sun had fully risen.

Walking to meet Senior Sevius, Lee Han thought to himself.

The Teleportation Club departed from school first due to the nature of their requests, and their meeting time was also the earliest.

If it had been something I was participating in, I might have been a bit more careful.

Certainly, if Lee Han had been a Drama Club member, he might have been more cautious about escaping.

But Lee Han had something to say for himself too.

There was nothing wrong with believing in his friends abilities.

Of course, the Drama Club was a bit annoying, and he didnt really care if the members went to the punishment room a little, but Lee Han hadnt encouraged his friends without any basis.

No one has the right to stop the struggle for freedom.

Youre here.

Yes. Senior. When do we depart?

In 30 minutes. Oh right. One more request was added.

Is it Professor Verdus again?

Lee Han spoke in a listless voice as if he already knew without hearing.

Who else would add retrieval items so urgently?

No. This time its not a professor.

??

I received gold coins from the Drama Club President. He asked us to help with an escape midway.

Lee Han deeply reflected on himself.

Even after learning necromancy, he still hadnt mastered having a kind heart!
