Episode 1039
“Shouldn’t you run far away?”
Except for exceptions such as Professor Vermo, wizards who failed to keep their promises generally tended to run away to a deep valley that no one knew about.
Of course, I thought he would have already gone that far as great artists disappeared so quickly…
“What are you talking about, Student Lee Han? It’s not easy to get the necessary ingredients if you’re far away from the empire’s big cities.”
Professor Garcia explained instead
Although he was an excellent student, it was at times like this that it was revealed that he still lacked experience.
If you’re from Einrogard, even if you run away because you can’t keep your promise, you take care of what you need.
“Conversely, it also has the effect of catching us off guard.”
“……”
Professor Garcia, who was concentrating on his explanation, did not notice that his student was looking at his senior with a trashy look.
“Ssd… No, I understand why you didn’t go far. Anyway, we had to talk about the portrait, but it turned out well.”
When Lee Han tried to call, Professor Garcia quickly stopped him.
“Wait a minute. Student Lee Han.”
“?”
“Can we tell you later?”
“Huh? Well, I guess you want to know right away. Are you afraid you might be shocked?”
The story of how a painting he left behind turned into a skeletal headmaster during his time as a prince was a story that was difficult for even the greatest artist to accept.
But Lee Han believed.
A wizard as good as an artist would accept the truth and use it as nourishment.
‘If you’re a senior, I’m sure you’ll be fine.’
“No, that’s not it…”
Professor Garcia hesitated.
It was none of the professor’s business to know that the other person would be shocked by the portrait of the skeleton principal, but rather…
“…100 million!”
The great artist who was wandering around the hall made eye contact with Lee Han.
The great artist who screamed a single word disappeared among the people in an instant.
“…You ran away from Petrogad, but I thought you would feel embarrassed if you met a student like this, no matter how senior you are…”
“ah.”
Lee Han realized it too late.
Although he didn’t really care, he had respect for his senior wizards.
“I didn’t think about it at all. It’s definitely a loss of face…”
Lee Han, who was thinking about his senior wizards, felt a strange sense of discomfort.
I felt like I was missing someone.
‘what?’
However, before the sense of incongruity could be resolved, the great artist appeared again.
Her long, flowing black hair and facial features that replaced her original mask reminded her of a noble lady from a noble family.
If his clothes weren’t the same, he might have been mistaken for someone else.
‘Oops. ‘You must respect the wishes of your senior.’
Lee Han spoke in as foolish a manner as possible.
“I really don’t know who that person is, Professor.”
“…I didn’t disguise myself to deceive you, so there’s no need to act like that.”
The artist said, glaring at his junior.
Sometimes, unnecessary consideration hurt people more.
“You may call me Lady Azirmo within this hall…”
There must have been many better pseudonyms, but Lee Han was puzzled by the sight of an artist coming with one of the most famous dragon names in the empire.
“Is there a reason you chose the name Azirmo?”
“That’s a very good question. Yes, there is a reason for the dragon race.”
The artist seemed satisfied with the question and willingly explained it.
The various races of the empire each prided themselves on being the most outstanding, but if there was one race that no race could ignore, it would be the dragon.
An ancient race from the continent born with innate perfection.
“Dragons can choose everything for themselves. They can choose their name, their gender, their color, their contract, and even whether or not they want to become the skeleton headmaster’s disciple.”
‘Lastly, isn’t it possible to select other races as well?’
Lee Han thought to himself, but held back because he thought he would get angry if he said it.
“That’s why I borrowed that name to mean that when I escape from the clutches of the madman, I will choose everything on my own like a dragon.”
A name carries magical power.
For an artist who abandoned his old name and chose a new one with the intention of becoming the master of his own destiny, the name of the empire’s most famous dragon seemed like an obvious choice.
“I see.”
“In a way, it is no exaggeration to say that the name of the dragon protects me.”
“But, senior. One of the paintings you left behind turned into a picture of the principal from the time of the young prince.”
“……”
The artist stumbled too far for the dragon’s name to protect. His complexion was as pale as lead.
“Are you okay?”
“Seriously? Are you seriously asking this? What wizard would be okay with hearing something like that?”
“That’s true.”
Professor Garcia nodded without realizing it.
No one from Einrogard could be calm about those words.
How dare you say that as if you picked up a rock along the way…

“How on earth???”
“Me too… Actually, I think it turned into a moving picture by chance when we were practicing.”
“When you were practicing? But you didn’t notice any changes then?”
“He said he was upset because he said he wasn’t his student…”
Lee Han tried to explain in as much detail as possible.
In fact, the change in the picture was a coincidence that even the professors found difficult to explain. Even if I tried to explain it, the limitations were clear.
But still, one thing was conveyed accurately.
The fact is that the drawing of the skeleton headmaster during his time as a prince was completely sulked by the artist!
“……”
The artist looked like he was going to throw up.
The only thing more disgusting than the evil skeleton principal was the sulking skeleton principal. He couldn’t imagine it.
“Are you okay?”
“No. I feel like my mind has collapsed. I’ll have to check on my condition after the auction ends today.”
“Meeting you once…”
The artist shook his head at his junior’s suggestion.
The shock was already too great. Even the artist himself couldn’t imagine what would happen if they met in person here.
“The fact that it has changed is valuable enough information. Thank you.”
“But I think it would be more helpful to meet you.”
“It certainly seems like the method is not wrong.”
The artist pretended not to hear and changed the subject.
Although I wasn’t sure exactly what effect practicing magic with the school’s youngest student had, I was confident that the overall direction of magic was correct.
If Lee Han can make a painting come alive, the artist himself can do it too.
‘But I never summon a wizard like that.’
The artist made a firm determination.
Even if we bring in a young skeleton principal, he has a moderately dry and cold personality, just like Lee Han mentioned…
…But once I heard it, it didn’t easily disappear from my mind.
“Ugh. Get out of my head! This evil spirit!”
“……”
Lee Han suddenly became worried when the artist screamed as if he was suffering from a headache.
Did I say it for no reason?
“Did you just hide it?”
“No. Well said. You’ll have to find out someday. It’s up to you to overcome it.”
Professor Garcia was quite cold.
The professor was not so leisurely as to worry about even his narrow-minded seniors, who might be his students.
“Anyway, then… I’ll just leave.”
Lee Han opened his mouth as he had to meet the gardening club members as well.
I said everything I wanted to say to my senior, so now I had to go do my job.
The artist who heard those words came out of shock and spoke.
“Wait a minute. I guess the reason you came here is to participate in the auction. Which auction are you planning to participate in?”
“First of all, I was planning to participate in the horticulturalist club auction.”
As other auctions have not yet been confirmed, Lee Han first spoke about the confirmed ones.
“That’s great. I was planning on participating too.”
The artist said as if everything went well.
I had come here after hearing a rumor that a rare and rare plant had been discovered, and it seemed like my junior had plans as well.
“Let’s go together.”
“Ugh.”
Lee Han was taken aback by the sudden words.
Of course, he was a great artist and a respected senior, but if you asked me if I wanted to go with him when he visited the gardening club, that wasn’t the case.
I already felt it keenly from what I experienced at Petrogard.
‘There’s nothing good about going with a Buyeo wizard.’
If the horticulturalist’s club said, ‘No! If someone said something like ‘Aren’t you the wizard who ran away after receiving a request for my work!’, Lee Han, who was standing next to the artist, was automatically recognized as ‘that shameless wizard’s junior.’
It could be said that it was an overly harsh hazing ceremony for a new member of the club.
“Well, senior. You can’t visit the horticulturist club if you don’t have the qualifications.”
“I know. Of course I have it.”
In the past, having completed a mansion made of living trees, the artist had received generous invitations from members of the Gardeners’ Club.
Of course, it was possible to attend.
“…Then let’s go together…”
Lee Han walked away in a slightly sullen state.
Don’t pretend like you didn’t know before!
“Student Lee Han. Are you going with your senior?”
“yes…”
In response to Professor Garcia’s question, Lee Han looked slightly hopeful.
Could it be that the professor is trying to save him from this situation?
“Good for you!”
“…?”
For a moment, Lee Han wondered what he had done wrong to Professor Garcia.
“Be sure to get a lot.”
“???”
* * *
“What do you need?”
“Everything from here to here.”
The manager looked like he was going to faint at the declaration of the black-haired noblewoman.
Paying a large amount of money to buy something before the auction even started was not something that anyone could do.
Lee Han wondered to himself.
‘Is there anything that shouldn’t compete?’
Instead of meeting the members of the Gardeners’ Club right away, the great artist stopped by another auction house in the hall along the way.
-hmm. It’ll be fine.
Eastern Gatherers Guild Reagent Auction (lots of rare reagents)
Then, Lee Han made a declaration that he thought he would never make in his life.
“Was there anything you needed?”
“No. I didn’t want to wait until the auction and then bother arguing. Please send the purchased reagents to the Einrogard student’s mansion here.”
“…?!!”
Lee Han was just as surprised as the manager.
“Senior. I don’t have the money to buy that… It’s not that I don’t have it, but I don’t want to spend it on it.”
“You’re good at saying ridiculous things. Are you really going to force me to buy it? Use it when you get back to Einroguard. I’m still in my second year, so no matter how many reagents I have, it won’t be enough. Hmm. Let’s stop by there too. I’ll also learn about the school of enchantment. “I said I had it, right? I guess I need some useful consumable gems.”
Lee Han was unable to come to his senses and was dragged away. It was so shocking that I couldn’t point out the ridiculous term ‘consumable jewelry’ even though I heard it.
“Give me everything from here to here.”
“B-but the person who said he would buy this jewel…”
“Call me.”
“yes?”
“Call me and tell them. I will pay twice the amount offered as consolation prize.”
The problem was resolved immediately.
Lee Han felt a similar thrill as when he saw the skeleton principal casting Unique World.
Wealth above a certain level produced an effect similar to that of the original world.
‘…respectable!’
Only then did Lee Han understand what Professor Garcia meant.
The Buyeo wizard, who neither ran a school nor squandered his wealth pointlessly, was truly the embodiment of enormous wealth.
He was just infinitely grateful that that incarnation was his senior.
“Wizard cards. Let’s buy them all now.”
“Senior. Why the wizard card?”
“Huh? You guys don’t play with it?”
The artist was puzzled.
Wasn’t it time to play around with it in second grade?
“…I will gratefully accept it.”
Lee Han thought he should just receive it and then give it to Guy Nando.
