Chapter 23

Yi-Han decided to show some consideration for Dolgyu.

"Indeed, this is a matter of honor and justice, so the term 'spy' does not suit. Dolgyu, you are an inside man."

"Uh... what?" Dolgyu was confused by the unfamiliar term. However, he didn't feel too bad about it, sensing that 'inside man' was somehow more noble and dignified than a spy.

"It seems alright, doesn't it?"

"Yes. From now on, as an inside man, it would be great if you cou...

Uregor, despite initially scoffing, nods in agreement. He had no intention of criticizing what one nurtures and sells.

"There are no other students who have thought of this before. It's a very creative idea, extremely so," he comments.

"Oh, thank you. This means the business will do well," comes the reply.

"It's not a compliment!"

Uregor grumbles, but in truth, managing finances is an important virtue for an alchemist. After all, who e...

There was a saying: If you see only mad people around someone, you should suspect that person might be mad too.

This was true for the magic academy as well. If all the professors seemed insane, then even those who mingled with them and appeared sane deserved scrutiny!

‘Ah, yes. Professor Garcia was close to that mad principal. Indeed, none of the professors should be trusted.’

If Professor Garcia had heard this, she would have been unjus...

Living among the Wardanaz family had made him forget how much the imperial nobles loved to boast and show off.

The nobles of the empire valued honor more than life itself, and even on the brink of bankruptcy, they took pride in lavish meals!

‘Ah, what a needless hassle.’

"Wonderful! Two from the Blue Dragon, no less."

Yi-Han looked to his side. The princess was raising her hand, not only that, but she was also looking...

‘I've underestimated them,’ he mused.

Indeed, it was true that the students of the Blue Dragon held affection and a sense of indebtedness towards Yi-Han. However, their fervor wasn't merely because of this. Fundamentally, the Blue Dragon students disliked those from the White Tiger, who were of knightly descent and bore a rough and wild demeanor, quite the opposite of their own.

Their latent disdain had already been simmering when the White Ti...

Yi-Han had thought the students of the White Tiger were more broad-minded than this.

As soon as class ended and he was about to leave, three students suddenly blocked his path.

"Wardanaz. Did you think you could win so despicably and just slip away?"

"We'll teach you a lesson so you'll never dare to join the class so shamelessly again."

Two students, a dwarf and an orc, whom Yi-Han didn't know, spat out these words.

‘Amazing!’ Professor Ingurdel couldn't help but admire when he saw Yi-Han kick dirt into Dolgyu's face.

‘Do not limit your methods. There is only life and death.’

Nobles, who learned swordsmanship for dignity and sophistication, despised dishonorable means, but for swordsmen who risked their lives in real combat, victory was all that mattered. In this respect, Yi-Han's act of kicking dirt was not bad at all. In fact, it was commendable. 2023-12-29 12:52:27 +0000 UTC View Post

Throughout the semester, as they attended lectures and crossed swords with each other, it became clear that there was no benefit in pretending to be something he was not, such as ‘Although I’m from a family of mages, I actually dream of becoming a swordmaster.’

Moreover, given the wariness of the White Tiger students towards Yi-Han, it was necessary to alleviate their suspicions.

"It is indeed challenging," he mused.

Controlling the orb with sheer willpower was no ordinary task. Like the student who had been hit by the orb he was controlling earlier, the orb could fly off on its own if one's concentration wavered even slightly. It was an unfamiliar sensation, akin to suddenly having a third arm.

Fortunately, for Yi-Han, he didn't have to worry about collapsing from depleted mana. In fact, he hadn't felt any drain in his ma...

‘It's regrettable,’ thought Yi-Han, feeling disappointed. His friends at the dormitory had failed to accept his unique theory.

"Wardanaz..."

"No, I came to school to learn magic. Don’t you?"

Yi-Han found himself making excuses, under the gaze of Asan, whose eyes were filled with a sense of betrayal.

"Well... yeah, you’re right."

"And think about it. Do you really think that principal will be persuaded just because we try to persuade him?"

"That's true, I suppose."

Asan was convinced.

Indeed, even to Asan, the prospect of persuading the sc...

"Regardless, I'm glad you ironheads have finally caught on!"

Silence followed the Lich Principal's praise; no one seemed pleased. Yi-Han thought he heard someone cursing.

‘Usually, the Blue Dragon has always been the slowest to adapt.’

Yet, unexpectedly, the Lich Principal's praise was sincere.

Each year, new students entered the dormitories, and among them, the Blue Dragon students were the slowest to adapt. The Black Tortoise stu...

Sweets were said to restore the mind and soul of people. This was indeed true for the jams brought by Professor Uregor. The students, who generously spread strawberry jam, raspberry jam, fig jam, and more on their bread, displayed expressions akin to being intoxicated.

"Is that so, Professor?" Yi-Han did not let his emotions show on his face. Having dealt with eccentric professors more than once, he was not naive enough to be easily swayed. But what came out of his mouth was, "I do believe that with passion and affection, one could indeed achieve good grades in alchemy lectures."

'I should make sure never to attend this lecture again after it ends.'

"Do you really think so?"

Professor Uregor stroked his mu...

It wasn't just the mages who could manipulate mana. A swordsman, who had spent his life swinging a sword, had learned to condense mana and overlay it upon his blade. This was the realm of aura!

Such an impressive and flamboyant technique attracted many noble scions to learn swordsmanship. Even families that produce mages were no exception. Therefore, when Yi-Han first expressed his desire to learn swordsmanship, Arlong thought to himself, ‘Ah, he wish...

Originally, those within the Wardanaz family were unaware of the rumors or the image of their own family. The Wardanaz estate was larger than most castles, and their land was as vast as a modest city. It was unthinkable for those living or working there to speak carelessly about the Wardanaz family...

Nillia stepped back once more.

Yi-Han, upon looking at the herb he needed to find, thought to himself, ‘It looks like a mix of a reishi mushroom and ginseng.’ This herb, known as the 'Cleansing Grass,' was noted for its use in making antidotes.

The family knight, Arlong, had consistently taught Yi-Han swordsmanship, and Yi-Han, himself knowledgeable in combat, could recognize it. Yonaire's stance at that moment was that of someone about to strike in anger!

"Wait. Just a moment."

Yi-Han intervened between the two, attempting to mediate.

"But alchemy is trivial," Gainando spoke, oblivious to the mood around him.

Mana, also known as magic power, was the fuel of all magic. In some tribes of the East, it was referred to as 'Qi.' Scholars, fond of formality, called it ether, while obstinate priests named it holy power. This multifaceted force was essential for changing the world.

Every use of magic required drawing out and expending one's internal mana. Therefore, it was common for inexperienced and clumsy young mages to suffer from a lack of mana.

But for so...

Each individual was assigned a surprisingly spacious and comfortable private room. Despite the Skull Principal's reluctance to provide anything else, it seemed they had at least spared the students from losing their personal chambers.

To Yi-Han, this was merely an assumption. Meanwhile, the other nobles were probably aghast at the barren rooms devoid of any furnishing.

"Is this a place for beggars?" one exclaimed in disbelief.

Gainando was momentarily convinced that Yi-Han was joking.

How could a person live on nothing but hard black bread and cold rice balls?

And how could someone wear such a rough and shabby cloak?

Yet, Yi-Han's expression was not that of a joker.

‘House Wardanaz... what a fearsome family it must be!’ Gainando was shocked.

The noble houses of the Empire wielded immense power, each with their unique customs and family traditions. ...

The concept of royalty, particularly princes and princesses, was usually associated with noble and dignified power. However, things were slightly different in the Empire. There was an unexpectedly large number of royal family members.

Even for the esteemed royal family, having more than a hundred direct children of the Emperor seemed problematic. At thi...

Yi-Han, having endured the rigors of graduate school, solemnly vowed never to set foot in an academic institution again.

"I will live for myself from now on!"

But fate had other plans. After a tragic accident took Yi-Han's life, he was reborn in a different world, into the Wardanaz family—a prestigious household known for its magic.

15 years had passed since then.

In the ensuing days, the hours passed in a blur, too quick to even catch one's breath. When night fell and Yuder arrived at Kishiar's lodging, an involuntary tension swelled within him. However, the man who had insisted on Yuder staying by his side simply smiled as usual.

It was clear that Kishiar wanted to keep Yuder close and watch over him, especially since Yuder had a similar concern when Kishiar had stayed up all night ...
