“Those bastards should be thankful they fed sleeping herbs, not poison!”

Nelly said with a ferocious voice.

As much as she heard what had happened to Lee Han and Yoner, she must have been firmly angry with the White Tiger Tower students.

“I quarreled like that with Wodanaj, who did nothing wrong.you!”

“Actually, there is nothing wrong with it, I did take the swordsmanship class taught by the White Tiger Tower students.”

“uh?? No, why is that wrong…”

“But that doesn’t matter.”

Neelia opened her eyes wide and looked at Lee Han, as if embarrassed, but Lee Han ignored her and continued her speech.

“Anyway, Durgyu. I know you’re surprised, but I want you to know that this isn’t cowardly or dishonorable. This is a strategy.”

“No, that’s right. The person who got it is an idiot.”

Nelia helped Lee Han with her words.

This level of retaliation wasn’t even retaliation for her, she said to the hunter-born Nelia.

“I still have some honor…”

“Uh-huh. Durgyu. You’re looking narrowly at honor. Let’s see the results. If there was a commotion after fighting here and we were all caught together, we would have blushed with honor or something. But thanks to the sleeping candles in the water, we were able to finish it off without blushing. We’ll go back to school without getting caught, and those friends won’t get hurt for nothing. Isn’t this honor?”

“So… is it?”

“It’s an honor. It’s honor.”

Neelia helped her with this. Yonaire and Guynan also faced each other.

“It seems like an honorable act.”

“Is this enough to be considered an honor in the Imperial Palace?”

“That… that’s right.”

Just as a person who comes close to ink gradually turns black, Durgyu was slowly becoming tainted with Lee Han’s way of thinking without even noticing it.

Tata Tata Tak-

At the sound of the undead running from afar, Lee Han nodded his head.

– Complete suppression.

– Complete suppression.

The bone chasers didn’t think it was strange that the White Tiger Tower students were asleep.

As it was an undead summons with low intelligence, he couldn’t tell them apart.

‘Now I have to wait.’

Lee Han was sure that those bone-stalkers would soon begin to scatter.

Having captured all the students of the White Tiger Tower, the target, there was no reason to stay any longer.

“Where?”

“I’m going to check out this area while I wait.”

Lee Han cautiously proceeded towards the side of the wall.

An unexpected commotion broke out, and the original goal of escaping from school was in vain, but he couldn’t just go back with his bare hands.

‘I need to check something.’

How far will the huge wall surrounding the school site extend out of the mountain range?

And is there really no way to escape?

The other students followed Lee Han and carefully followed.

The bone-stalkers are gone, but a gloomy darkness lies before them, and the mountains steeper and denser with trees and bushes.

“It’s too… dark.”

“This is dangerous. I will fall.”

In addition, the white tiger tower students who were walking around with torches disappeared, so the surroundings were even darker.

“Wordanaz. I need to turn on the light.”

“Isn’t it dangerous?”

“There are so many obstacles around here, you should be fine.”

“Okay. Light!”

With Lee Han’s spell, an intense light enveloped the surroundings. It was like broad daylight.

Seeing this, Nelia suddenly became anxious.

Theoretically, if the distance is this far and the trees and bushes are dense and thickly growing, it is normal to not see the light from below…

Lee Han’s spell seemed too strong.

‘I hope you won’t find out.’

-Turn off the lights. young students. ‘Cause I can’t sleep

“!!!”

A low, resonant voice filled with magical power, which doesn’t seem like a human, could be heard from within the forest.

Still, the students who suffered from the mad principal couldn’t help but be astonished.

Could it be that there was a trap here too?

“who are you?”

Lee Han was the first to come to his senses and open his mouth.

‘The Principal’s SummonsSue would have attacked first.’

– I’ll ask the question first. Because your students have come. If you answer the question correctly, you will be treated as a guest, but if you get it wrong, you will be treated as an uninvited guest. Now… nothing to be nervous about. It’s a really easy problem. A dwarf lit five candles in the room late in the evening. But a strong wind blew outside the window and one of the candles went out. Not long after, a guest dwarf drinking beer in the next room came in with the door open, and one more candle went out. So the Dwarf closed the windows and doors to prevent the candles from going out. How many candles are left the next morning?

‘This is a trap.’

Lee Han realized the trap hidden in the riddle.

At first glance, it is easy to think that there are three left because five to two have gone out, but the candle was supposed to burn out over time.

That is, when morning comes, there are 0 remaining candles.

“Three outlines!”

Guy Nando answered without going through his brain. Ian was shocked.

“!”

– That’s right.

“…Sleep, wait. Didn’t the candle burn out and go out?”

Lee Han couldn’t stand it and asked. Then the voice answered as if puzzled.

– When you come up with a riddle like this, of course you use a magic candle that doesn’t burn, right? It’s normal, isn’t it?

“……”

Lee Han cursed inwardly.

‘It’s like such a crazy magical society.’

As I said, it was an easy matter.

– Now that you answered the question, I will treat you as a guest. But… It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a customer, and it’s a bit disappointing to just end it. How about guessing one more question? Even if I’m wrong, I’ll treat you as a guest, and if I get it right, I’ll give you a present.

“Ready.”

Lee Han answered immediately without even thinking about it.

If you miss this opportunity, you are an idiot.

– There’s a big guy here this morning. At noon, this figure becomes smaller, and in the afternoon it becomes larger again. At night, this person disappears. Who is this person?

The students hesitated.

He was bewildered by a riddle he hadn’t thought of.

‘what?’

‘I do not know.’

Gainando, who had gained confidence with the correct answer earlier, shouted again.

“It’s a monster that gets bigger in the morning and afternoon and gets smaller at noon!”

-…Wrong.

“why?! oh I forgot to disappear at night…”

– Because it’s wrong.

“Is the answer a shadow?”

– That’s right!

“!!!”

The friends looked at Lee Han with surprised eyes.

– How did you get it right?

This was a very famous riddle.

Isn’t that one of the riddles of the Sphinx?

Lee Han answered simply because it was cumbersome to explain that he had knowledge of his previous life.

“I focused my mind and surrendered myself to wisdom, and the answer came.”

An ambiguous answer will always be interpreted well anywhere.

The other party seemed very impressed by Lee Han’s answer.

He said in a more excited voice than before.

-excellent. welcome you Smart young students.

The densely nested trees shifted to the side at once, and the surrounding terrain began to change as if foggy.

The vacant lot of the spirit, which is unlikely to exist in reality, was revealed in front of me with the magical power of thick green.

* * * *

It was the Talking Oak Tree that greeted Lee Han and his friends.

All kinds of monsters, spirits, and other mysterious beings lived in the deep forest.

The oak tree that appeared in front of me was one of them.

– You look very tired. drink this

The talking oak tree moved its branches and handed the cup. There was a glimmer of cold green liquid.

‘It doesn’t smell very good.’Green juice-like color and green juice-like smell.

But the magical power I felt was plentiful. Lee Han drank carefully.

“!”

It felt as if the fatigue built up in my muscles had completely dissipated.

Just like the cold ice water you drink after running while sweating on a hot summer day, so did the green drink you drank now.

The coolness that goes down the throat coldly!

Apart from being very bitter, the effect was clear.

– A drink made from the sap made by forest trees. does it fit your mouth?

“Yes. Delicious. Could you give me some more?”

-do whatever you want.

Lee Han took the sap in a leather water bag. As the school environment was barren, I had to take care of these things when I could.

While Lee Han was taking care of it, the other students kept asking questions to the oak trees.

It was just as amazing as it was to come to a mysterious vacant lot known only to the spirits of the forest.

“What are you doing here?”

“Are there any other trees?”

“Uh, do you have anything to eat? This is too bitter. Even some sweet fruit.”

While the friends were chatting, Lee Han also asked the talking oak tree a question.

He couldn’t miss this opportunity.

“Can I ask you a few questions?”

-do whatever you want. But you have to find out who you are. Introduce yourself.

“I am Lee Han.”

The oak tree was surprised to see Lee Han speaking his name first instead of his family.

It was not uncommon for a noble boy to say his name first instead of his family.

– What is your family name?

“The Wodanaj family.”

thud-

The oak tree took a step back. Ian felt a little embarrassed.

– I’m sorry. It’s not your fault, but because of the rumors. The Wodanaj family had a lot of great wizards.

“Is that so?”

-Many magicians like madman came out.

“……”

– Saying your own name instead of your family. That’s great. You will be a good wizard. But what’s going on with the students here in the middle of the night?

Lee Han answered without even putting saliva on his lips.

“I was enjoying the night walk.”

“……”

Hearing the answer from the side, Yonner bit his lip to hold back the laughter.

Of course, the talking oak tree was not deceived by such a lie.

-ah. Are you here to find your way out of school? But looking at the shape of the moon today, it must have been the first week of the new students. Are you already trying to get out in the first week?

“…Actually, there are a lot of reasons for that.”

Lee Han tried to make excuses, but the talking oak tree was already admiring.

-You’re going out in the first week… The new arrivals this time are great.

‘shit.’

Lee Han gave up his excuses.

“Talking oak tree. If there were so many students trying to get out before me, could you give me some advice on how to get out?”

-I have lived in this forest for over a hundred years. I’ve seen a lot of students try to leave this school. there is no way It’s impossible for your freshman level.

The talking oak tree showed no sign of speaking.

Lee Han, who had not expected much at first, decided to ask another question.

“If I keep going in this direction, can I climb out of the mountain?”

– It will be a crowd. Because there is a wall.

“…there are walls here too?”

-okay. And there’s magic on those walls. If you climb recklessly, you will get a bitter taste.

Ian was amazing.

How many hours have you climbed this steep mountain range, where the wall is still connected?

Really great!

‘In this case, it is practically impossible to find a place where the wall is broken and escape.’

climb the wall orYou can’t even turn around.

The talking oak tree spoke like a timid.

– When you’re a freshman, don’t force yourself to try to leave. Because it’s absolutely dangerous. The mountain is quiet now, but after a few more weeks, the sleeping monsters will wake up.

“thank you for telling me.”

The talking oak tree looked into Lee Han’s eyes.

Even though I heard those words, I didn’t waver at all.

Instead of getting scared, she has eyes that try to run more.

I liked the oak tree that the spirit spoke of.

– I’ll give you a riddle. Orcs of the Black Ax clan and the Orcs of the Red Feather clan. The Orcs of the White Eagle Tribe and the Orcs of the Green Frog Tribe gathered and held a feast. Even a naughty goblin intervened and ate and drank. How could a goblin do that?

“…?”

“???”

The gathered students were puzzled by the riddle of the talking oak tree.

Guy Nando opened her mouth.

“Were you a popular goblin?”

The oak tree pretended not to hear.
