    Episode 523

    The lightning-walking professor asked the question without realizing it because it was such an absurd statement.

    “Why on earth are you training to prepare for when you encounter a griffon? According to the regulations a griffon is…”

    The Griffon was a beast that could not participate in regular competitive games due to its size and weight.

    But Bulfad spoke seriously.

    “Because the opponent may bring a short and skinny griffon.”

    “…”

    The lightning-walking professor felt once again that he was a normal person.

    Of course he likes hardball quite a bit but compared to the imperial people who are really crazy about hardball he likes it to a small extent.

    Preparing for when the opponent brings out a short and skinny griffon.

    …And the most surprising thing was that the contrast was quite plausible.

    To be honest even in Professor Lightning’s footsteps one of the Gyeokgu players could have somehow brought out the short and skinny Griffon within the rules.

    There are people who transform them and bring them out…

    ‘for a moment. Then why is it like that?’

    Professor Lightning Walk and Bullpad looked at Lee Han.

    As Lee Han raced again on his phone rig the Sanyang that was blocking the goal could not hold on and got out of the way.

    The player burst into tears and shouted at the sight.

    “How could you do this to me! How could you do this to me! I gave you the food I ate and the clothes I wore! “They even gave me a place to sleep!”

    -Shave…

    The goat felt very sorry as if it knew of its owner’s anger.

    Lee Han had a shocked expression on his face.

    ‘Is it really necessary to go that far?’

    I didn’t think the goats would like to eat human food.

    At that time Bulpad shouted from the stands.

    “griffon! Your opponent is Gryphon! It is a transformed horse from a griffon so think accordingly. “Remember your training against the griffon!”

    “…”

    For a moment Lee Han wondered if the other person was using a trick to confuse Lee Han.

    Training against gryphons.

    ‘Why on earth do you train like that?’

    “indeed! “I thought the horse’s eyes were unusual… Come on!”

    The player quickly covered the goat’s eyes with an eyepatch. He was trying to avoid making eye contact with the griffon.

    The other players also quickly covered their eyes as if they had heard that. As long as you avoid the deadly eyes of the Gryphon…

    -Shave!!!!

    “Why not!”

    “ah.”

    Lee Han realized this as he swung his pole towards the gap and launched the ball.

    “Isn’t this because of you?”

    When I thought about it there was also a basilisk in Lee Han’s arms.

    The monsters could even smell the faint scent of the basilisk that humans could not so it was natural for them to be so scared.

    -…?

    However instead of agreeing to Lee Han’s words the baby basilisk waved its tail and looked puzzled.

    Clever monsters are keenly aware of their own power.

    The baby basilisk knew very well that its strength was still inadequate.

    A monster that is frightened by the smell of a baby monster that hasn’t yet grown must be a very timid monster… right?

    “thanks. “The professor will be happy thanks to you.”

    When Lee Han thanked him the baby basilisk was puzzled but happy.

    “Instead let’s go a little deeper into your arms. Even after the game is over the opponent won’t know.”

    -…

    The struggle of the Grandeur City Gyeok-gu club players was truly amazing.

    They covered the nose ears and eyes of the mount calmed it down using only trust in the owner and then tried to keep up with the score.

    However the first-year students led by Professor Lightning Step led a counterattack by appointing a student with excellent offensive ability lowered the defensive line tightly and held on until the end without leaving a gap.

    No matter how strong the offensive power of the club players was it was difficult to turn it over in this situation…

    “Write…”

    “okay.”

    Anrago and Ctrran worked hard with their quills and left records.

    Surprisingly these match records and impressions were sold well to students who liked competitive games.

    A lightning-walking professor who was passing behind said something while hiding his happy feelings.

    “Delete the paragraph that says the eyes ears and nose of the vehicle were covered. Because readers will be puzzled.”

    “aha! thank you.”

    Professor Lightning Walk was in a good mood for the first time in a long time after hearing the praise from the players of the Grandeur City Gyeok-gu club.

    -I was really surprised. professor! The professor’s tactics were truly amazing!

    -I’m really looking forward to the results of next year’s Einrogard Hardball Club!

    -We need to train against gryphons again.

    -How about we try taming a griffon?

    “I will tell you to leave the silver coins you received from the hardball club players with the vault keeper today. “Use it as an application fee when you apply for research next year.”

    “Thank you Professor!”

    The students also shouted with bright expressions as if they were happy about their victory.

    Lee Han who was suffering from muscle pain next to him stopped.

    “…Oh wait. Even though it’s a friendly match do you get silver coins?”

    “It means thanking the winner. Wardanaz. “I said you really need to stop studying and start paying attention to Gyeokgu.”

    Angago said very seriously.

    Looking at today’s game it was a huge loss to the imperial fighting world to have someone like Wodanaz just devote himself to magic.

    Even though Wardanaz was a violent and foul-tempered man he was ready to forget his grudges and help Angago for the sake of the Empire’s strife.

    “…”

    Lee Han tried to hit him but held back because of his muscle pain. Seeing that Anrago nodded his head.

    “I guess you also felt something because of today’s game.”

    “…Ymirg. Imirg? “Please hit that bastard just once.”

    At Lee Han’s request the giant mixed-race friend was embarrassed.

    Professor Lightning Walk once again praised today’s game and pointed out areas in which the participating students need to improve then called Lee Han and spoke.

    “really. “The players said you were the best player today.”

    “yes. thank you.”

    Lee Han answered without much emotion.

    If he had been a student who liked playing hardball he would have shed tears of joy but Lee Han was currently out of his mind due to muscle pain.

    “ruler. Get it here. “It is a medal of honor.”

    “If you just give me more silver I won’t…”

    Lee Han was surprised to see the date and place as well as the medallion with the emblem of the Grandeur City Gyeok-gu club and Einroguard engraved on it.

    Surprisingly it was made of sterling silver.

    “Is it entirely silver?”

    “huh? yes. “You can’t fake such an honorable medal.”

    Belatedly tears of emotion welled up in Lee Han’s eyes. Professor Lightning Walk also felt happy when he saw that.

    ‘boy. Even if you pretend not to you must be happy that you won today.’

    Doppelganger Professor Yonramo said while looking at the students.

    “Although the principles of external transformation magic and transformation magic are similar when you cast them you will feel that they are very different. “It is not easy to transform a wizard himself.”

    Although changing external substances and changing the wizard’s own body had the same principles the level of difficulty was different.

    In order for a wizard to change himself he needed a strong spirit that could not lose his self even if his form changed.

    “Sometimes some unlucky transformation wizards lose themselves by transforming for too long or too often…”

    Professor Yonramo thought it was a mistake when the students looked scared.

    Unlike a sociable person like Professor Garcia Professor Yonramo still had no idea what students were afraid of.

    “…You don’t have to worry too much! Losing yourself and becoming something else is not necessarily a bad thing.”

    “…”

    “…”

    The students were even more shocked.

    Some people even whispered ‘Isn’t this transformation magic too dangerous?’

    “If transformation magic doesn’t work for you there is no need to learn it. There are many transformation wizards who do not actually transform. There are people who don’t fit the constitution… Mr. Lee Han. “Why don’t you come and transform yourself so the students won’t be scared?”

    As the students seemed to be getting more and more scared no matter what he said Professor Yonramo dragged Lee Han in to change the topic.

    It was clear that if Lee Han who was highly trusted among the students used the transformation magic first the students’ fears would be reduced.

    “…yes? professor. “I don’t know how to use transformation magic.”

    “uh? You received a magic book last time right? “Have you not learned it yet?”

    Professor Yonramo asked casually without thinking much.

    At the last Transformation Wizards’ Festival weren’t wizards lining up to give Lee Han a grimoire one by one?

    -I am truly happy to give you my family’s grimoire <From Caterpillar to Dragon>. ha ha ha! ha ha ha! Hahahahahaha! As for the others… Oops. Hmm.

    Have you even heard this?

    “…sorry. “I haven’t mastered it yet.”

    Lee Han apologized as his face darkened.

    He thought Professor Yonramo was reprimanding him.

    ‘shit. It’s unfair. I didn’t know I had to learn it.’

    It was unfair but instead of refuting Lee Han put on his most apologetic expression.

    This was because I knew very well that logical rebuttals had no meaning in front of the professor.

    The only thing that was effective was a fake facial expression.

    “Oh no… I’m not blaming you…”

    Unlike other ambitious professors Professor Yonramo just wanted to live a peaceful life without causing much trouble.

    As such he had no intention of accumulating resentment by provoking a student who was being treated as a direct student of the skeleton principal.

    It was just a mistake!

    Professor Yonramo who imagined a future in the distant future where Lee Han would become the principal’s right-hand man and cut the budget of the School of Transformation Magic hurried to appease him.

    “Transformation magic is difficult. It’s not something that can be learned easily. So there is no need to apologize like that. “I just thought Lee Han would have learned it by now…”

    “…sorry…”

    “…”

    When Professor Yonramo saw the other person’s expression getting darker he wanted to cry.

    Professor Yonramo gave up and looked around at the students.

    “Today… so… we’re going to do some basics of transformation magic.”

    The full-scale magic lecture began in a truly gloomy atmosphere.

    * * *

    “oh. Do you see this? “It sparkles!”

    “Wardanaz. Look at this! “I am Makin!”

    “…If you don’t take it right away I’m going to pour hiccup potion in your mouth while you sleep.”

    “I’m sorry. Makin. “It looked fun when Guy Nando followed along…”

    “…”

    “…”

    The basis of transformation magic began with changing the color of one’s hair or nails.

    The level of difficulty is relatively easy and even if you fail the aftereffects are much less.

    The friends practiced the basics by changing their hair color.

    ‘hmm. When I go back Gainando will be beaten up.’

    Ihan cautiously spoke to Yoner as he was preparing an attack spell after realizing that Gainando had followed him in his absence.

    “Yoner?”

    “what. why.”

    “…If you drink <lesser metal affinity potion> and cast a spell it will be easier to subdue it with steel transformation.”

    Yoner’s expression softened. Lee Han apologized to Guy Nando in his heart.

    ‘Anyway…’

    Lee Han waved his staff and wondered.

    It was rare for Lee Han to make slower progress than other students but his hair color did not change much.

    “Lee Han. “I need to use more horsepower.”

    “ah. Is that so?”

    Lee Han thought so after hearing the professor’s words.

    Considering his resistance to external magic he would need to increase the magic power of the magic he uses on himself.

    “more.” “more.” “Make it more.” “more!”

    “…I’m sorry for my sin.”

    “I’m not angry. “You know right?”

    ‘What are you two doing?’

    Yoner who was practicing to draw the letters ‘Gainando is a dead life’ on his fingernails was puzzled by the strange appearance of the priests bowing to each other.
