Surviving as a Mage in a Magic Academy (Web Novel) - Chapter 956
Chapter 956
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
In a situation where asking Angrago would only result in useless chatter, Giselle asked the person in charge instead of wasting time.-Wardanaz. Werent you looking after the kids? What the hell is that bastard Alpha talking about?
-Whos looking after who?! Were just traveling together!
Angrago flared up.
Of course, during this outing, Wardanaz had helped them escape, defeated enemies, found and gathered students, arranged secret lodging, and even earned gold coins to share with everyone, but that was just friends traveling around together, not Wardanaz looking after them.
Wouldnt people misunderstand if they heard that?
-Honestly, he did look after you. You shameless bastard.
-I also think he looked after you. I cant believe how someone can say such shameless things without any conscience.
-I didnt go out with you, but judging from your usual behavior, I think he did look after you
Unlike the Watchman Club, the Einroguard 2nd year students didnt reveal who was who.
People like Lee Han and Giselle could roughly guess who was who from their handwriting, but Angrago couldnt.
-Who, who is it? Isnt that bastard Dalcard changing his handwriting by himself?
-Asan isnt even here. Angrago. More importantly, did you really escape to watch a griffin ball game?
Angrago had no answer to Lee Hans question. Giselle sighed deeply.
-I should have broken your legs when you were acting up about going out to prevent you from doing stupid things.
-Isnt that too harsh, Wardanaz?!
-Im Moradi, you bastard.
-Isnt that too harsh, Moradi?
-Whats harsh about it? You said youd complete the Healing Amulet this semester. Are you planning to complete it in the punishment room?
-Uh.
-Wardanaz. Can you break that bastards legs for me?
-As I said, its difficult since he escaped. Hes not in front of me.
-No, no. Im serious!!
Angrago protested earnestly.
Even if he went to the punishment room after escaping, couldnt he achieve his goal by diligently practicing magic there?
Of course, Lee Han and Giselle were skeptical.
-The punishment room isnt particularly good for learning magic. Especially in Angragos case.
-What would a bastard who doesnt study alone even in the tower accomplish?
-I also think thats a really ridiculous idea
Being attacked not only by the two but also by other friends, Angrago finally gave up and shouted.
-I dont need any of that! And Ive already escaped. Im going to watch griffin ball before going back. No one can stop me.
-Do as you please. Dont be surprised if someone set fire to your belongings and box.
-That that threat wont work.
-Moradi, instead of burning them, can you give them to me?
-Should I?
-Wardanaz! Hey! Are you really going to do this?!
-Angrago. Come back even now. And the griffin ball game wont be fun anyway. The players are mediocre too.
-Wardanaz. Even though you helped us escape this time
-I also defeated the enemies.
-You found the students and gathered them in one place.
-You also found lodging and created a source of income.
-Anyway, such slander wont work! Ill see the majesty of Einroguards griffin ball club with my own eyes! See you all later! Im leaving now!
With those final words, Angrago disappeared. He really seemed to have covered the artifact.
-Angrago. Im the one playing in the griffin ball game. The griffin ball club isnt in good condition. Theres no reason to come see a poor match Angrago? Did he really leave?
-Seems like he left. He already put the artifact in his pocket.
-Salko. Did you also like griffin ball? I didnt know youd escape together with Angrago.
-I wanted to see the stadium in person.
-I see. If its for that reason, I understand. I hope its worth going to the punishment room. Ill send you some snacks later.
-Thanks, Wardanaz.
Am I the only one who finds it strange that Wardanaz is playing as a starter for the griffin ball club?
Giselle was confused inside the school.
What on earth happened outside for everyone to just accept it?
***
Grrrroar!
Caw-caw-caw-caw!
Screeeeech!
The complex and varied monster cries that were usually hard to hear.
Hearing those cries from afar, the citizens of Granden City smiled joyfully instead of running away or screaming.
A griffin ball game is coming soon!
Could that cry be a griffin?! Could there be a game with a griffin?!
Thats impossible. Its probably an eagle-type monster. A griffin isnt a wyvern or anything.
Before a large-scale griffin ball game, such various cries would always fill the surroundings.
If such cries didnt occur and only horse neighing could be heard, it would likely be an ordinary and boring griffin ball game.
Ugh. Here we go again. Whats so good about those noisy beasts.
Ah! The Empire has fallen! These people care about nothing but bread and griffin ball!
Some citizens showed negative reactions to the griffin ball game, but it had no effect on the overall trend.
Most people loved griffin ball games.
Originally it started as a game where people fought each other with their lives at stake, but to make the fights more thrilling, it changed to people and monsters fighting with their lives at stake, and eventually evolved into the current form where people ride monsters and fight.
Lee Han, who was continuously receiving crash course education, made a sour expression after hearing even the history of griffin ball.
It seemed unnecessary to memorize such things
The rules of griffin ball differ by region and situation. The largest griffin ball game was the Eastern Great Griffin Ball 41 years ago. This city versus city griffin ball game had goal posts in each others cities and hundreds of people fought. Over a hundred people had broken bones and cracked skulls, and this game ended in a draw when the ball disappeared
Are there any tricks I can use immediately?
Should I explain those first?
Arien asked with a hopeful heart.
Still, hes from the Wardanaz family, so wanting tricks and deceptions
Yes!
He does!
Arien deeply regretted his assumptions about the other persons mind and pulled out another book. It was 99 Griffin Ball Tricks.
Originally, hitting above the shoulders or using magic and mana-powered weapon techniques are prohibited, but there are ways to avoid getting caught by the referee
I see. I see.
Lee Han listened with several times better concentration than before.
No matter how he thought about it, to face outstanding official players with pure technique alone, underhanded methods seemed to be the only answer.
Screeeech-
A sharp bird cry was heard from afar. It was the pre-arranged gathering signal of Einroguards ball game club.
Ah. I think I need to go.
Good luck, young master!
Lee Han hurriedly moved while receiving their send-off.
Actualy, even without such sounds or signals, Einroguards ball game club was easy to find.
You just had to look for the noisiest and most boisterous group in Einroguard.
The mages who had packed magically shrunken cages and giant cages densely behind carts, then decorated their bodies with various beast fur and feathers like ornaments, stood out anywhere.
Its the Einroguard ball game players!
Do your best! Im cheering for you! But try to play a bit better!
Where did Kimbelden go? That guy at least played ball games like a human being?
Kimbelden graduated. Einroguard is a magic school.
Ah, no! Without that guy, theres no one decent!
While there were some people cheering, most were filled with worry, jeers, and shouts asking why theyd been playing so poorly lately.
Breaking through the noisy crowd, Lee Han joined the club seniors.
Karnella glared at the spectators with blazing eyes and muttered.
These fair-weather fans who dont even know what genuine support means stopping their cheers just because we lost for 1 or 2 years?
Isnt that natural?
Normally people wouldnt cheer after losing a few games
Still, since she was a senior, Lee Han tried to calm her down.
Please calm down, senior. If we play well, theyll cheer again.
They should cheer even if we play poorly! Does anyone think Im an idiot who cheered when my familys player lost 100 games?!
Ball game fanatics are really annoying.
Lee Han found himself wanting to meet magic fanatics again instead.
While both were equally impossible to communicate with, at least Lee Han was also interested in magic.
Junior I only trust you. You need to play the role of a new striker surpassing Senior Kimbelden. You need to crush and trample other players. Make their legs tremble just by looking at your eyes. Make them fear just seeing your shadow
But arent there any other second-years?
Lee Han looked around and realized something strange.
Among the students who had gone out, there were no second-years at all.
Huh? Oh.
Why?
Usually second-years dont have decent mounts, and they lack experience too Ah! Junior. You dont need to worry. In your case, I personally convinced the others.
Why go that far
It was rare for second-year students to participate in ball game club matches.
Besides the mount issue, the ball game club students werent cruel enough to deliberately send out inexperienced juniors to get hurt.
However, Karnella was someone who could swing a ball game stick at the Skeleton Principals skull if it meant victory.
To Karnella, Lee Han wasnt a second-year student.
He was an outstanding striker prospect capable of riding griffins, unicorns, basilisks, and if necessary, even mountain destroyers or four-legged giants (though it was uncertain if that argument would work).
I just believe in your talent.
Thats not happy at all.
If it had been another senior, he might have been slightly moved, but Karnellas eyes were full of greed.
She probably wouldnt care much whether Lee Han got hit by a wyvern or a behemoth as long as they won.
Hormashi. Stop bothering Wardanaz.
Senior Perse. Ive never bothered Wardanaz once. I was praising Wardanazs talent.
Even if were short on players, isnt it a bit dangerous to send out a second-year student
Perse still seemed conflicted as she looked at Lee Han once, then at Karnella, then back at Lee Han.
Then she let out a deep sigh.
You wouldnt listen even if we tried to stop you, would you, junior.
Excuse me? No, you never tried to stop me
At the out-of-nowhere comment, Lee Han couldnt hold back anymore and voiced his inner thoughts.
To say such things now when shed never tried to stop him once.
However, Perse didnt hear Lee Hans words and just continued with what she wanted to say.
Anyway, be careful, Wardanaz. Except for Karnella, no one has excessive expectations of you. Everyone knows the clubs situation.
Currently, Einroguards ball game club was in a weakened state due to various setbacks including the departure of outstanding players (graduation and disappearances) and the escape of mounts.
In this situation, the members werent shameless enough to entrust everything to a hastily recruited second-year student.
Except for one person.
But be careful of Karnella. If we lose the match, stay away from her for a while.
At the unhelpful advice, Lee Han quietly shook his head.
Then he took out 99 Ball Game Tricks and started reading it again.
Hmm methods to secretly use magic
Rather than reviewing what hed learned from the ball game club this semester, these tricks seemed like theyd be more effective.
Right. Wardanaz. I almost forgot.
Perse, who was about to go tend to the mounts again, called Lee Han.
Is there something wrong?
Its nothing major. Professor Garcia was looking for you. She said to definitely come see her after the ball game match ends.
Lee Hans face turned slightly pale.
