Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Chapter 003

Gainando thought Lee Han was joking.

How could a person live on only hard black bread and cold rice balls?

How could a person wear such a rough and shabby cloak?

But Lee Han wasn’t particularly joking.

‘The Wardanaz family… looks like a scary family…!’

Gainando was astonished.

The noble families of the empire had great power and each had its own customs and family customs.

And Lee Han’s family, the Wodanaz family, had little known information among the imperial aristocratic families.

It was because he did not actively participate in politics and was only immersed in magic research…

but thanks to him, Guinando had no choice but to misunderstand.

The Wardanaj family must have raised their bloodlines like that!

‘Isn’t that too much? No matter how much it is, I wouldn’t treat a slave like that… I couldn’t believe that the family head of Wodanaz could be such a cruel person…’

Gainando tapped Lee Han on the shoulder with a sympathetic expression.

“Come to the mansion sometime. I’ll be sure to treat you right.”

“Uh… thank you?”

I didn’t know why Gainando was doing this, but Lee Han nodded.

* * *

After Headmaster Skeleton’s stormy speech, as the students dispersed, he had another opportunity to speak with Yoner.

Lee Han asked what he was curious about earlier.

“Why are you with Cainando? Even if it’s a cousin, if it’s at least the Meikin family, you won’t have to notice the mere imperial family.”

“ah. Because of Gainando’s mother.”

Yoner said calmly.

Seeing that, Lee Han asked as if he was curious.

“Have you ever been beholden to Kainando’s mother?”

Lee Han imagined for a moment.

Yoner, who was much younger than now, attended a banquet held at the imperial palace, and made a big mistake.

Everyone looks at Yoner with contempt, and Yoner is frightened and cries, but the mother of one of the empresses, Gainando, appears and says this warmly.

-are you okay. You could make a mistake.

I would have been moved by such an experience.

Even though Gainando is an insignificant member of the royal family, he might treat him properly as a member of the royal family…

“Huh? no. Guinando’s mother is incredibly wealthy. He gave me a lot of money when I got along with Gainando.”

“…!!”

Lee Han was shocked.

Was there such a secret?

‘I should be friendly too!’

* * *

Einrogard, a magic school, accepted anyone with talent, from royalty to slaves.

Of course, the wizards also knew very well that it was easy to cause an accident if the boys and girls, who were sensitive and sharp, were gathered in one place.

That’s why Einrogard’s dormitory was divided into 4 places depending on where they came from.

Tower of the arrogant blue dragon.

Members of the imperial family and from prominent aristocratic families entered here.

As Lee Han also belonged to the Wardanaj family, he automatically belonged to it.

“Ugh. They are priests. I don’t know if he’s preaching for no reason.”

“Shh. Don’t make a fuss about it.”

I heard a murmur from the side.

He was complaining about the freshmen who belonged to the ‘Eternally Burning Tower of the Phoenix’.

The eternally burning phoenix tower.

Priests from various denominations of the empire entered here.

Surprisingly, the imperial priests did not mind using magic.

They thought magic was a blessing from the gods.

As such, it was not strange for various churches to send priests to Ein Rogard, the most excellent magic school in the empire.

‘It does stand out.’

The imperial family and nobles had not changed into school uniforms yet, so they were dressed differently, but the priests were all dressed in simple priestly clothes.

The noble boys and girls, who had grown up listening to sermons from the priests who had visited their families since childhood, were frowning as if they had recalled memories.

Crunches, crunches—

but the impressions of the boys and girls frowned even more when they saw the people entering behind them.

The tower of the white tiger that bites the lightning.

Boys and girls from imperial knight families entered this tower.

At first glance, it sounded strange that a family of knights would come to the magic school, but even among the knights, magic was necessary.

From telepathy to treatment, there is no place where magic is not used.

These were the ones who were prepared to walk the two paths together as knights and wizards.

Gainando grumbled, as if that was disapproving.

“Do we really have to accept those who insult the glorious and pure path of magic in such a way? It would be enough to just hire a street wizard as a tutor.”

Lee Han, who was listening from the side, was slightly stabbed.

Others may be thinking of using magic to explore pure truth, but Lee Han came in just to get ahead with magic.

“If I was going to learn, I would have wanted to learn from the best.”

“What… Why are you on their side?”

“Guinan Island.”

Lee Han was more tolerant of Gainando.

It was because he had heard that Gainando’s mother had a lot of money.

“Noble beings do not despise those below them.”

“…I think that’s too demanding…”

Still, Guinando kept his mouth shut, as if he wanted to be honorable.

As the boys and girls of the knight family passed by, the last dormitory students appeared.

They were the ones wearing the most diverse and unique costumes at this place.

Tower of the Black Turtle that sees the past and the future.

This dormitory was the most diverse in composition.

Commoners, servants, slaves, clowns, beggars, merchants, emerging low-class aristocrats, and many other people gathered together.

I could feel the intimidated expressions on their faces, as if they knew that they had the lowest status.

‘I’d like to be friends with you if there’s a chance.’

Unlike others who cast contempt on him, Lee Han wanted to build a friendship whenever he had the chance.

What is the best way to make money?

It was also a business.

And the good thing about doing this kind of business together is that it’s not people like Gainando next to them, but people with thick bones in the field.

“Are you looking this way?”

“Don’t make eye contact. It won’t be nice to meet you.”

“You unlucky children…”

There was no way they didn’t know that the students from the Blue Dragon’s Tower were giving them contemptuous glances.

There was nothing good about arguing here, so they moved on, avoiding their eyes.

“Should I accept such lowly people? Whatever it is.”

One of the whispered voices was clearly audible.

The students of the Tower of the Black Turtle must have heard it as well, and their impressions became harsh.

‘oh.’

Lee Han instantly realized that this was an opportunity.

A chance to make friends with top students over there!

‘I’ll have to go now.’

* * *

The Black Turtle Tower students couldn’t help but shrink even if they tried not to.

Even the students, who were quite energetic, could not easily come forward in this strange atmosphere and gossip.

At that time, it was Lee Han, a boy from the Tower of the Blue Dragon.

The boy, who had a dignified sculptural appearance with thick lines, opened his mouth slowly.

“That would be the vulgar one. Didn’t you give up everything you had before entering Einrogard? Forgetting about that and putting on trivial pride.”

A sense of intimidation and a strong presence emanated from the boy.

A noble figure that only a great aristocrat who has a natural bloodline and takes pride in himself can show.

It seemed that the other Blue Dragon Tower students also sympathized with that figure.

“That’s right.”

“Are you from the Wardanaz family? As expected, he is from the Wardanaz family.”

The person who had been mocked earlier kept his mouth shut, probably embarrassed.

And the students of the Tower of the Black Turtle also responded.

“The Wardanaz family??”

“That magic family…?!”

“Don’t make eye contact, fool! A dangerous family!”

“Isn’t the head of the family a dragon? Are you of dragon blood?”

“I knew it was not a dragon, but an ancient spirit’s lineage…” “

……”

* * *

At first, Lee Han thought it was going well.

All the students were persuaded by Lee Han’s words.

‘Are you okay?’

Now, all the Black Turtle Tower students need to do is thank Lee

Han… “The Wardanaz family??”

“That magic family…?!”

“Don’t make eye contact, fool! A dangerous family!”

“Isn’t the head of the family a dragon? Are you of dragon blood?”

“I knew it wasn’t a dragon, but an ancient spirit’s lineage…” “

……”

However, the reaction came out a bit different from Lee Han’s expectation.

Students who cast fearful gazes rather than build friendships!

The reactions of the students made Lee Han realize that something was going wrong.

I thought I’d come back to say thank you…?

Yoner from the side said admiringly.

“The show you just showed was great. that’s right. All nobles who entered Ein Lorgard should do that.”

“…Yoner. Do I look scary?”

“huh? no? Do you have the dignity of an aristocrat?”

Yoner didn’t understand why Lee Han was worried.

Lee Han’s appearance was literally ‘aristocratic’ and handsome.

A thick, angular chin with tight lips. Even sharp eyes there.

His majestic figure, which was inaccessible to commoners, was chosen as an advantage among nobles.

In fact, all the students of the Blue Dragon Tower were looking good on him.

In response, Lee Han sighed.

‘It’s impossible to fit in like this.’

* * *

Each dormitory was located far away along the north-south, east-west direction with the main building as the center.

Lee Han and the other students headed down the road to the blue pagoda in the distance.

‘It’s really spacious.’

Seeing it from the inside was surprising.

The horse was a school. Where is a school with lakes, forests, rivers, and mountains inside?

Seeing that, I suddenly remembered what the headmaster said.

‘Didn’t I tell you to save it yourself?’

Headmaster Skeleton had said that this school could be saved as much as he wanted.

Certainly, seeing this, I thought that it could be.

Go to the forest to catch animals or go to the lake to fish…

“You must be thinking the same thing.”

“huh?”

“You thought it was a great blessing to be able to see this beautiful scenery, right?”

“no. I was wondering if there are any animals you can catch in the forest.”

“…Does the Wardanaz family even train like that?”

* * *

The tower of the arrogant blue dragon was a long tower made of blue stone.

From the outside, it doesn’t look that big.

However, there was a wide space close to infinity that the magicians of Einrogard had expanded.

“!”

After passing through the gate of the tower, all the students who were with me until just now disappeared.

When he came to his senses, Lee Han was left alone in a dark space.

[Where are you going?]

“??”

[Where are you going?]

‘Ah.’

Lee Han realized that the tower itself was talking to him now.

“Where can I… go?”

[You adapt quickly.]

Top was not visible, but Lee Han seemed to be smiling at Top.

[The place you can go now is a four-private room and a steel common room for first graders.]

“Can you go anywhere else?”

[okay. You can go to some places just by knowing their name, and to some places you need to know other things.]

Blue Dragon Tower Dormitory

Phoenix Tower Dormitory

Tiger Tower Dormitory

Turtle Tower Dormitory

“Can I go to the second year’s lounge or common lounge?”

[okay. But not now.]

“Why?”

[Because the principal forbade it.]

“……”

Lee Han cursed at the thoroughness of the principal. In this respect, he was a thorough human being.

“Then send me to your private room.”

[okay. Welcome to admission. Young wizard.]
