Chapter 953
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Damn. I got too carried away.Lee Han, having regained his senses, deeply reflected on his actions.
It wasnt for nothing that old fairy tales featured mages who fell to evil power and self-destructed.
Evil power always came with a price.
What are you talking about?
Ilendil panicked, wondering if his junior had already been affected by the artifact.
Anyone could see he was trying to explain, so why was he closing the artifact?
I was trying to explain, wasnt I?
No.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Echo Stone forcibly opened again.
And the Insane Doppelgangers phantom flowed out.
The royalty will have to visit in person. Tell me the location.
Actually, it seems like all the problems have been resolved.
The Insane Doppelganger ignored Lee Han and spoke directly to Ilendil.
Where is it?
Y-yes?
When the human-form Skeleton Principal spoke to her directly, Ilendil froze stiff.
Any Einroguard student would have instinctive fear of the Skeleton Principal carved deep into their soul.
Moreover, the human-form Skeleton Principal tended to be more insane than the basic skeletal form.
The last time Ilendil had seen the human-form Skeleton Principal was when he was tearing apart mage criminals who had tried to contact Einroguard students in the western regions of the Empire
Naturally, it was inevitable that Ilendil would freeze up.
I asked where it was.
Th-th-th The 2nd Barracks of the Grandden City Guard
I understand.
The Insane Doppelganger turned off the Echo Stone. Lee Han glared at Ilendil.
To think a fourth year would be so weak-hearted!
If it had been Senior Diret, she would have held out saying You may kill me, but I cannot sell out my junior!
But it couldnt be helped. Not all seniors could be like Diret.
Lee Han sighed and said.
You guys should go back.
What? Why?
His friends, who had been cutting up the mercenaries coats (the fabric was too good quality to throw away), looked puzzled at Lee Hans words.
Another mage will be coming soon and it seems dangerous.
Wardanaz. What do you take us for?
His friends spoke with hot eyes filled with friendship.
They werent weak enough to retreat just because a dangerous mage was coming.
Wow. Theyre really close.
Ilendil was inwardly amazed at the sight.
How could students from different towers have such friendship?
Its the Principals Insane Doppelganger. Go back quickly.
But it wouldnt be good to ignore your words and be stubborn either. Got it!
Wardanaz. Its not because were scared, but purely out of respect for your opinion. You understand, right?
His friends immediately changed their attitude.
Being stubborn and not listening to an experts opinion in a dangerous situation could lead everyone to ruin.
Watching his friends scurry away, Ilendil was dumbfounded.
What those kids?
They listen to me well. More importantly, lets prepare for the Principals doppelganger coming.
At her juniors words, Ilendil nodded.
Even if it was a doppelganger, dealing with the Principals doppelganger wasnt a comfortable matter.
Moreover, the other party wasnt in their right mind. In some ways, it could be even more dangerous.
Swoosh
Dozens of types of branches sprouted from the ground like vines and covered Ilendil. It looked like thick armor.
What are you doing?
Huh? Uh You said to prepare?
Lee Han was dumbfounded at the sight of his senior clearly preparing to get beaten less painfully.
Not that kind of preparation. Hes coming to teach magic, but we cant learn in this collapsed basement.
Hes coming to teach magic???
When his senior suddenly showed intelligence below that of a first-year Einroguard student, Lee Han wondered what was wrong.
What else would he come for?
Punishment oh, no. I understand. Ill prepare!
Ilendil sent back the armor and moved frantically. Lee Han thought to himself.
Hmm. Senior Ilendil is a fourth year, but her social skills seem worse than the Black Magic Schools.
It was a comment that was rude to both parties.
***
Will it really be okay?
Ilendil couldnt stay still in the private room that Daihal Dalcard had lent them and kept pacing back and forth.
Her junior had said Hes coming to teach magic, but from Ilendils perspective, it was hard to believe.
Did it make sense that the Skeleton Principals Insane Doppelganger would come for such a reason?
Wouldnt it be right to run away even now???
After breaking the Echo Stone, running as far away as possible
Meanwhile, Lee Han was looking at Ilendil as if she were pathetic.
Why is she so restless?
Ilendil herself didnt know, but due to this commission, her reputation in Lee Hans mind kept falling.
Though it had started below Diret, her current reputation was now below Yukveltires.
Bang!
Have you arrived?
Yes.
The Insane Doppelganger who entered through the door looked around inside and then called a servant.
To offer a room like a pigsty to a disciple of royalty. Tell the master immediately. If he doesnt provide a proper room, Ill hold him responsible.
Y-yes!
As the terrified servant tried to rush out, the terrified Lee Han threw himself forward to block them first.
Wait, wait! Im the one who asked for this room!
Did you develop a hobby of living like a beggar in the meantime? Well, seeing how you live at the magic school, thats plausible.
Thats your fault!
Lee Han felt a bit wronged.
Of course, the Insane Doppelganger wasnt the real party involved so he could feel wronged too, but still, he couldnt be said to be completely without responsibility.
I deliberately rented this kind of room because I was asking for an urgent favor.
Asans brother had offered to kick out the Baldrogard mages staying in the building and rent the largest private room, but Lee Han had shaken his head.
He didnt want to end up in the Empire newspaper with the headline The Arrogant Einroguard Students Rudeness, Is This Acceptable?.
And considering the Insane Doppelgangers status, causing a commotion wasnt a good thing.
If the Skeleton Principal later had nowhere to complain, who would he complain to? He might get scolded for what he was doing while a fake was damaging his reputation.
The Insane Doppelganger sighed pitifully at Lee Hans words, as if he didnt know where to start explaining.
To think youd be this stupid. Should I have entrusted Intarendals with separate etiquette education? What do you think?
Huh?
Ilendil, who had been hiding in the corner, jumped in fright when the Insane Doppelganger suddenly pointed at her.
In fact, he had been hiding in the corner since they first entered.
Thejunior had been chattering about something, but Ilendil was too scared to listen at all.
I asked what you think. About this disgraceful behavior of a royal disciple refusing the proper protocol they should receive and wanting to learn magic in a pigsty.
Is is is it bad?
Thats right.
The Insane Doppelganger nodded as if he had given a proper answer. At that sight, Ilendil let out a sigh of relief.
But Ilendil didnt notice.
That the contempt mixed in the juniors eyes had grown even deeper.
Is that person really a senior?
Taking an outsiders side out of fear.
Lee Han grumbled inwardly and opened his mouth.
Hmph. I like it here. Having lived like a beggar at Einroguard, this place feels familiar.
What nonsense stubbornness.
Thud!
Lee Han threw himself onto the sofa next to him. At that defiant attitude that anyone could see, Ilendil trembled even more in terror.
The opponent was an Archmage who could really cut his belly open!
Pl please stop get up
Fine. Get up.
In the end, it was the Insane Doppelganger who gave in first.
He couldnt waste time unnecessarily when there wasnt enough time even for discussing magic.
I see its the artifact you showed me earlier.
Yes. Thats correct.
Lee Han nodded, pointing to the artifact positioned in the center of the private room.
Currently, the Echo of the Demigod was bound with three layers of simple sealing artifacts and floating in mid-air.
Even that wasnt enough, as additional magic circles were suppressing any possible influence from the evil god.
Pop!
When the Insane Doppelganger waved his hand, all the surrounding seals disappeared at once. Ilendil unconsciously tensed up.
Even if he was an Archmage, to remove all the safety measures on such an artifact.
Not satisfied with that, the Insane Doppelganger unhesitatingly grabbed the artifact with his bare hands and lifted it up.
Its contaminated.
Ye Yes?!!!
Whoosh!
After finishing his examination, the Insane Doppelganger casually threw the artifact to Lee Han.
When the junior calmly caught the artifact, Ilendil collapsed with a scream.
What the?!
??
Why is he acting like that?
Senior isnt feeling very well.
Doesnt seem like it.
Ilendil held onto his fading consciousness and focused on the master-disciple conversation going back and forth in calm voices.
Its its fine?
Yes? Im okay. My resistance is strong Besides, Master wouldnt give me something I couldnt handle.
At the sight of the Insane Doppelganger nodding as if it were natural, Ilendil felt his barely-held consciousness becoming confused once again.
He truly realized what level of monster that junior was.
I can hear the evil gods voice, but it cant interfere beyond whats necessary.
That would be the case. Gods cant do anything once you get rid of their worshippers. Sit down. Ill explain.
Lee Han sat in front of the Insane Doppelganger. Then he called to Ilendil.
Senior, please sit down too.
Ilendil looked at his junior with resentment once and sat down obediently.
This seat in front of the Insane Doppelganger was as painful as a burning throne in hell.
Sob sob.
You remember the Black Prison, dont you.
Yes.
?
Ah. About what the Black Prison is.
Lee Han explained to Ilendil instead.
It was magic created by ancient mages to imprison artificially created demigods, and the name of that magic was
How do you know that?
I ended up helping out somehow.
The distance in Ilendils heart grew slightly further.
From a kind junior who loved spirits to a junior directly receiving magic instruction from the Skeleton Principals Insane Doppelganger.
The principle of this artifact isnt much different from the principle of the Black Prison. If you remove the contamination and cut off the connection with the evil god, you could use it as an auxiliary tool. If you do that, you, my disciple, should be able to cast the Black Prison alone.
Senior. Did you hear that?
As the junior kept rebelling like a madman, Ilendil wanted to cry.
Could it be that the junior wanted to die together with the Insane Doppelganger?
Stop the nonsense and focus
-Are you there?
When someone knocked on the private room door, the Insane Doppelgangers eyebrows shot up. Ilendil trembled inwardly.
What is it?
-Wed like to hear a few things about the mercenaries you captured.
Annoyed by the bothersome outsiders behavior, the Insane Doppelganger answered firmly.
Tell them to get lost.
Please come in!
The mages of Granden City entered with expressions of gratitude.
They had already received reports about capturing the remnants of evil god worshippers, but hearing the detailed story directly was different.
This person is?
Uh This is Lord Gonadaltes.
Gasp!!! Its an honor! I had only glimpsed the skeleton form from afar!
Lord Gonadaltes says hes pleased to meet you too.
Next to the Insane Doppelganger who sat still like a cold statue without saying a word, Lee Han proceeded with interpretation.
The Insane Doppelganger clearly looked displeased, but he didnt kill the mages, didnt smash the private room, and most importantly, didnt devour Ilendils junior.
Maybe he went crazy twice and became sane.
Ilendil formed an amazing hypothesis with that brilliant mind of his.
Since the Skeleton Principal himself was such a crazy person, the Skeleton Principals Insane Doppelganger might be relatively sane in comparison.
Otherwise, that patience couldnt be explained at all!
