Chapter 989
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
-How excessively cruel!Thanks to Lee Hans tattling, when the Insane Doppelganger confiscated all the wax memo pads, the Frost Giants voiced their complaints.
Of course, they couldnt say it to the Insane Doppelganger. They only shared it among themselves.
-Since ancient times, wise kings have not oppressed their people nor suppressed their subjects.
-Thats right.
Be quiet.
The Frost Giants fell silent as mice. With everyone shutting their mouths, Catten didnt miss the opportunity and brought up the main point.
There have been various incidents, but first let me state my proposal. These mages need a trial to prove their qualifications, and I want help preparing that trial.
At the seniors words, the White Tiger Tower students flinched.
Then they spoke intensely with their eyes.
Refuse!
Tell them to refuse!
How could a proud and dignified race help with some magic school student exam?
That would be defiling their honor and losing face. They should rightfully refuse.
-Understood. We shall help.
!!!!
However, the White Tiger Tower students expectations were shattered to pieces.
The Frost Giants feared the Insane Doppelganger far more than the students had thought.
Catten exclaimed with a bright face.
Juniors! This worked out wonderfully! Who would have thought the giants would accept so easily! Professor Ingoldel will be delighted too!
Wow
Hah Were thrilled
Lee Han and Giselle answered with fake expressions and voices. Catten tilted his head.
Arent you happy? Im getting a somewhat awkward feeling
No. Were happy. Haha.
Really happy indeed. Wardanaz, is there any poison left from that barrel earlier?
Damn. I shouldnt have thrown it away earlier.
Lee Han and Giselle sighed deeply.
If they had known theyd fight the Frost Giants again, they wouldnt have discarded that poisoned liquor!
You wont make us face them with just swords, right? Youll allow magic too, right?
Probably, but having Frost Giants as an exam itself is already abnormal.
While the two whispered, the Insane Doppelganger urged them with a displeased voice.
Hurry up. What are you doing?
Since his disciple was only having useless conversations instead of finding the Frost Giants artifacts, it was natural for the Insane Doppelganger to be displeased.
What was so great about facing Frost Giants that they were making such a fuss?
His disciple still had a long way to go regarding dignity.
Lee Han cleared his throat once and looked at the Frost Giants.
Then I shall state my proposal. I
Lee Han, who was about to speak, hesitated.
Come to think of it, he had planned to recover the Frost Giants artifacts when he got the chance (more precisely, he was going to steal them), but he hadnt planned to say it so boldly.
Still, was it really okay to say it openly in front of the Frost Giants?
-What proposal? Speak quickly.
Stop dragging it out and speak quickly.
Not only the Frost Giants but even the Insane Doppelganger urged Lee Han on.
Unable to find words to deflect or avoid, Lee Han finally confessed honestly.
I came to obtain the artifacts you came looking for
The White Tiger Tower friends behind him could only admire.
They knew Wardanaz was bold, but to this extent.
Admirable, Wardanaz!
To say such a thing in front of the Frost Giants!
To say I came to obtain your artifacts in front of murderous giants.
Even though it was Wardanaz who flashed with madness, no one had expected him to say such words.
-
The Frost Giants were also speechless for a moment, perhaps dumbfounded.
But fortunately, the Insane Doppelganger was beside Lee Han.
Cant you hear my disciples words? Answer!
-Un, understood. You may take the artifacts.
The Frost Giants, frightened by the Insane Doppelganger, answered hesitantly.
At that answer, the White Tiger Tower students were surprised once again.
That actually works?!
I see, Wardanaz. You planned to use the Principals projection from the beginning! What a terrifying guy!
No matter how long Einroguards history was, Wardanaz was probably the first student to utilize the Skeleton Principals projection so thoroughly.
The White Tiger Tower students shuddered at their friends cunning scheme.
Of course, Lee Han was shuddering just the same.
This easily?
Even though the Frost Giants were frightened, he had expected at least minimal resistance, but they gave in so obediently.
Maybe he could obtain even more here?
Please swear that you wont pointlessly challenge me to duels in the future.
-Thats understood. We swear.
Grumbling loudly nearby is also not allowed. Please swear.
The Frost Giants were startled.
How did that challenger read their inner thoughts so accurately?
Is it magic?
-We swear
I told you not to waste time on useless things.
When the Insane Doppelganger spoke, Lee Han thought Oh no.
He had been trying to take too much advantage using his masters authority.
Im sorry.
Enough. Let the royalty sort it out. You probably want to use these Frost Giants here as subordinates.
Yes Yes???!
Lee Han, who had been answering carelessly, exclaimed in surprise.
What?
No, I
Lee Han simply didnt want to get involved with giants chasing him from afar demanding duels when visiting dimensions in the future.
He absolutely wanted to avoid giants swarming over offering to serve as subordinates every time he visited a dimension.
However, the Insane Doppelganger, like a thoughtful master, accurately read his disciples inner thoughts that even he himself didnt know.
What other reason could there be for speaking so indirectly?
You Frost Giants owe a debt to royalty from the past. Repay that debt here and now.
-Ugh understood. We swear
Without Lee Han having a chance to intervene, the Frost Giants finished their oath.
If they met in other dimensions in the future, they would come running to fight for him, staking their honor!
Wow. Wardanaz. Getting the artifacts back is one thing, but I never imagined youd make the Frost Giants serve like subordinates afterward.
Cant you be quiet?
Why, why are you getting angry?!
The unfortunate White Tiger Tower student was flustered when his friend suddenly got angry after he made one admiring comment.
What did I do?!
***
Einroguard Library.
This library, which boasted history and tradition, had gathered most of the 2nd year students from each tower.
Even though it was the weekend, it was quite rare at Einroguard for students from different towers to gather like this.
However, the 2nd year students werent particulrly surprised by such things anymore. Instead, they focused on other aspects.
Wh-what the hell is that?
Thats the Principals projection. I heard it follows Wardanaz around like a cursed specter.
No. I already heard about that and know. What are those guys hammering next to him?
Ah. The White Tiger Tower students must have gotten ore from somewhere. So theyre doing that to make equipment.
Is it okay to do that in the library?
Whether other tower students frowned and stared at them or not, the White Tiger Tower students worked the bellows and hammered away.
To begin with, Einroguards library had never been a place of silence and peace. If it had been, there would have been no need to build temporary fortresses and wage survival battles last time.
Whats the point now!
Rowena. Hows the sword?
This should be quite useful. We can make three more today.
Hehe. It was worth all that trouble we went through.
The White Tiger Tower students nodded as memories of mining work in another dimension came to mind.
Having gone through such hardships, the completed equipment felt all the more precious.
Wardanaz. Thank
The White Tiger Tower students who were about to thank their friend for helping with the dimensional visit hesitated.
Anyone could see that Wardanaz looked very uncomfortable.
Didnt he act like this when we returned from the dimension last time too?
Why is Wardanaz acting like that?
While everyone was puzzled, Bartrek came up with a convincing hypothesis.
Isnt it because he has to prepare for exams now, but theres too much to prepare and its too difficult?
Indeed.
The reason students from various towers had gathered in the library was to prepare for exams.
And as long as Wardanaz was an Einroguard student, he couldnt escape from that preparation.
Considering the number and difficulty of lectures he was taking, it was impossible for his mood not to be bad.
I think its because some guys went to the punishment room.
Though Raphadael usually wasnt very talkative, this time he rarely offered his opinion.
This also seemed plausible.
There were some missing faces because some guys had caused trouble and gone to the punishment room.
But isnt it strange that Wardanaz would be in a bad mood just because someone went to the punishment room?
Someone suddenly felt something was off and asked.
He wasnt the White Tiger Towers supervising professor, so why would Wardanaz?
However, the White Tiger Tower students who had already adapted didnt feel anything was strange.
Whats strange about it? Hes always been like that.
Right. The guys who went to the punishment room are the bad ones.
Now that you mention it, that does seem right. Moradi. Is Wardanaz angry because of the guys who went to the punishment room?
The White Tiger Tower students called upon a reliable friend for such matters.
Giselle, who was passing by, answered with an expression that said instead of studying, they sure have a lot of useless conversations.
Hes probably angry about the Frost Giants from last time. He didnt want to get involved with them, but he was forced to get involved.
Huh? But being able to get help when meeting giants in other dimensions seems like a good thing
At the same time, it means he could get involved with other Frost Giants he didnt make pacts with. How annoying would that be.
But Wardanaz is already on friendly terms with the giants from the mountain range behind us, right? What would change just because Frost Giants are added?
Giselle was momentarily speechless.
She hadnt expected such sharp logic to come flying at her.
Then you can go ask Wardanaz directly about it.
Ah, no. Thats a bit
No matter how clueless they were, saying you were already friends with giants anyway to a friend who was angry about getting involved with Frost Giants wasnt a wise choice.
Meanwhile, Lee Han lightly tapped a small metal flask the size of a locket that could be worn around the neck with his staff.
As expected, it wont work.
The White Tiger Tower students had come up with brilliant hypotheses, but none of them were correct.
The reason Lee Han was uncomfortable was because the Frost Giants artifact wouldnt open.
-Here it is. This liquor. We came to find this liquor.
-Is it poisoned liquor like before?
-Something much more precious is contained within. Wisdom!
-!!!
Lee Han was startled by the Frost Giants explanation.
Liquor containing wisdom.
Any Einroguard student would have desires for intelligence-boosting potions, and Lee Han was no exception.
Not a failed product that turned one into a mad prophet like last time, but a true wisdom potion.
If it was a Frost Giants artifact, it might really be possible.
The problem was that it wouldnt open no matter what he tried.
-How can it be opened?
-We dont know either. Thats what weve been pondering.
-
The small flask, not even the size of a fist, was surprisingly sturdy. It made sloshing sounds when shaken, but no matter how much mana Lee Han poured into it, it dispersed it precisely.
Damn it. Theres someone who even calculates for mana hammering when making this!
He didnt know who the artifacts creator was, but he couldnt understand why they would make such wasteful things.
Wardanaz. If its about the Frost Giants, you dont need to worry too much.
Huh?
Lee Han was flustered when Giselle suddenly spoke to him.
Dimensions are vast, and there wont be many occasions to meet Frost Giants again.
Uh thanks. But why all of a sudden?
?
Giselle hesitated.
Wasnt it because of the Frost Giants?
Come over here. Well finish Advanced Magical Mathematics and Esoteric Geometry today.
When the Insane Doppelganger from behind presented an impossible goal, Lee Hans face contorted again.
What. So it really wasnt because of the Frost Giants.
Come to think of it, Wardanaz had been on good terms with giants from long ago.
Frost Giants were also giants when you thought about it, so he would have been able to become friends with them quickly.
