Episode 045
The mindset of a true professional thief was completely different from that of an ordinary person.
The principal and professors came and inspected the site, and while they were at it, they picked the lock and took out the items.
The glass flask contained potions of a variety of colors. Lee Han could feel the complex and diverse magical power radiating from within.
“But… what kind of potion is this?”
“I do not know?”
“…I see.”
Come to think of it, Ratford was a professional thief, not a professional alchemist.
I just picked it up as I could find it, and didn’t look into it before taking it.
‘I don’t know anything either.’
Lee Han was also a person who read various books and studied in advance when he was in the Wardanaz family, but it was impossible to find out his identity just by looking at the potion without any markings.
“Yoner. Do you understand?”
“This…”
Yoner picked up a flask and looked at it thoughtfully.
“Sounds like alcohol?”
“…Nonsense.”
“It’s like wine.”
Yoner carefully opened the cork lid, smelled the scent, and nodded.
“Yes, wine.”
“……”
“But I guess the other thing is a magic potion? “I guess I’ll have to go to the library and look it up to find out what it is, but…”
“That’s a good thing.”
Ratford was not surprised to see members of the Wardanaj and Makin families talking casually about the stolen potion.
You should not arrogantly question what your superiors are doing.
‘The vessel is large enough to even use stolen potions.’
“thanks. Ratford. “I’ll use it well.”
“no. It is an honor to offer it. “If you need me anytime, just call me.”
“Don’t be so stiff… Really. Do you want to take care of the horses together?”
Since I came to the stable early in the morning, I thought it would be good for Ratford to get to know the horses.
Ratford bowed his head at Lee Han’s suggestion.
“yes. It is an honour.”
“Enough with the glory.”
“Gwangyoung…”
“stop.”
“yep.”
dump-
“?”
There was the sound of someone dropping something from behind. Lee Han turned his head.
Nilia looked shocked.
“…I see you’ve made a new friend…”
Seeing Nilia trying to back away with a betrayed expression, Ihan and Yoner rushed over.
* * *
“what. Was it something like that? I’ll tell you. “I’m not the kind of person who would misunderstand something like that.”
“……”
“……”
Ihan and Yoner exchanged meaningful glances.
‘Didn’t you just try to misunderstand?’
‘I was clearly trying to misunderstand.’
Fortunately, the ridiculous misunderstanding that they were trying to make Ratford the new friend from Black Turtle Tower instead of Nylia was resolved.
Ratford said with a serious expression.
“I am not a friend, but a subordinate…eup-eup.”
“Oh my. “My hand slipped.”
Lee Han covered Ratford’s mouth with the brush that groomed the horse’s fur.
“ruler. “Let’s all take care of the horses together.”
There were several more students inside the stable who came to get to know the horses.
Although Professor Lightning Walk said, ‘Become friends with horses,’ not many students were conscientious enough to wake up early in the morning and come.
And the words were merciless even to those sincere students.
“evil! “Stop spitting!”
“Listen to me! Why are you doing this! “What are you complaining about?”
The horses were headbutting, spitting, purring, and trying to bite the students’ hands.
But Lee Han was not surprised.
‘There are no laboratory animals that listen well to words.’
Of course, the words were harsh, but it wasn’t that bad.
There is no such thing as sneaking away or throwing your own poop.
“ruler. “I’ll brush your fur.”
– Fuheung!
The white horse entrusted to the lightning-walking professor glared at Lee Han.
The intention to hit him the moment he approached was very blatantly visible.

However, Lee Han paid no heed and approached.
Whoosh!
The white horse tried to headbutt. As if Lee Han knew that would happen, he leaned back and avoided it.
The white horse’s eyes opened wide. It seemed like Lee Han didn’t know that he would avoid it.
Hehe!
The white horse spat this time. Lee Han avoided it as if he knew it would happen.
“Okay, okay. “He’s nice.”
Wow!
The white horse tried to bite, but Lee Han stepped aside and approached the white horse.
Still, the white horse did not give up. Even though he couldn’t kick because his legs were tied, he tried every damn thing possible.
Lee Han avoided such attacks, blocked them, and withstood them.
Nilia, who was watching from behind, could only admire it.
‘How can I tolerate this?’
If it had been Nilia, she would have already been scolded or whipped.
But instead of getting angry, Lee Han continued to comfort him by saying, ‘Okay, okay.’
Is that the dignity of a great nobleman??
* * *
-Purmur…
The white horse, which had been running wild for a while, lowered its head as if it was tired.
Only then was Lee Han able to pick up a brush and comb the white horse’s fur.
The white horse glared at Lee Han even as it was being brushed. It was seen that he would go on a rampage again once his physical strength was restored.
‘Isn’t this really a mixture of the blood of another monster?’
Lee Han was puzzled when he saw the particularly tenacious white horse.
Other words don’t seem to be this harsh…
Rattling!
“Okay, that’s enough.”
Yoner, who had been wrestling next to me for a while, walked out with a bright smile on his face, covered in mud.
Niliana Ratford was also in pretty rough shape.
“But he started to listen.”
“I think we’ve become quite friendly too.”
Hearing the two words, Lee Han turned his head and looked at the white horse.
The white horse turned its head as if it had nothing to do with it.
Originally, a young student would have been angry or given up on this persistent horse’s defiance…
‘Well, at some point I’ll give up.’
Lee Han’s mind was as calm as a lake.
No matter how damned a white horse may be, is it worse than a professor?
Lee Han just let go of his emotions and did what he had to do.
After finishing brushing, Lee Han mixed the feed and placed it in front of the white horse. The white horse stared at Lee Han while munching.
It was as if he was saying, ‘Don’t even think about getting over this.’
“I’m thinking of taking you for a walk now.”
Nilia said, shaking off the mud.
Originally, walking was essential when caring for horses. Horses will also be healthy if they go for a walk regularly.
And from the standpoint of trying to become friends, walking was also helpful.
If we kept walking around together, no matter how picky the animal was, it had no choice but to open its mind.
‘Hmm.’
However, Lee Han was doubtful whether the white horse would follow him calmly.
They’re still attacking me, but if I go for a walk in a wide space, wouldn’t they try a much more diverse range of attacks?
“hmm…”
Lee Han looked down at the iron bracelet and belt he was wearing, then looked at the white horse again.
The white horse felt some kind of ominousness in those eyes.
* * *
“I’m here!”
“……”
Thunderstruck managed his facial expression and opened the door.
Lightning Gait, who was standing outside the door, came into the cabin holding a tin cup.
“Make some tea!”
“You don’t even like the car I drive…”
“I’ll just hold on and drink it, so it’s okay!”
“……”
Thunderwalk boiled the kettle with a sad expression. I had no idea that I would be this sad without Lee Han.
“The new students were working hard taking care of the stables.”
Lightning Geoli said while gulping down the hot tea.
If there was a talent that applied to both alchemy and training, it was sincerity.
There was one reason why, in the <Basic Mount Training> class, I deliberately collected nasty words and told them to become friends.
To teach sincerity to new students.
There are many conditions for becoming friends with unfamiliar animals, but the most important of them is sincerity.
If you are not sincere, you cannot become friends with any animals.
“I intentionally made the horses’ temperament dirty, but if you put in some effort and care for them, they will soon calm down and relax. However, those who try to tame them by whipping them with force instead of putting in sincerity will experience a very harsh taste.”
When given this task, students’ reactions were divided into two.
Students who come out in the morning and try to become friendly with the horses.
And, following their arrogant habit, the students tried to subdue the horse with spurs and whips.
The horses prepared by Lightning Gait were horses that could never be subdued in such a way.
Disloyal students will have a stinging taste.
“Kha-ha-ha-ha-ha!”
“……”
When Lightning Geol put down his glass while laughing heartily, Thunder Geol shook his head.
‘I heard you really enjoy harassing students.’
Thunder Walk could not have imagined that he was being treated as someone similar to Lightning Walk by Lee Han.
I am different!
“Is Wodanaz doing well?”
“ah. Wardanaz. He’s a sincere guy, so he’ll do well. Of course, Gryphon is a bit tricky. “With sincerity, cleverness, and a little bit of luck, you will be able to become friends.”
“?”
Thunderous Step raised his head while pouring tea.
What did you say?
“What did you just say?”
“what?”
“You just… said something.”
“You must have heard wrong. “I said it was a horse.”
“……”
Thunderstruck looked at Thunderstruck with a mixture of shock and fear.
Could it be that the griffon was transformed into a horse…?
“No, right?”
“what?”
“……”
‘no. Let’s calm down. ‘Maybe the horse’s name is just Gryphon.’
Thunder Gaet regained his composure.
griffon.
A flying monster with the head and wings of an eagle and the claws and legs of a lion.
He had an arrogant and difficult personality, and was a violent person who was extremely abusive to his owner.
Personalities and habits vary depending on where you live, but one thing is certain.
A new student is not something to be tamed!!
“What is the horse’s name?”
“Uh… phone league.”
“…Aren’t you really crazy!??!”
In the end, the thunderstorm that could not be tolerated exploded.
What kind of crazy thing would you do to an alchemy student who just missed a day due to an injury?
“This nephew has turned around! “Why are you making a fuss after drinking well?”
“Anyway, you turn a griffon into a horse!?”
“When did I do that! Do you have any proof? And even if they were transformed, wouldn’t it be safe if they were transformed into words?”
“What kind of slime does Gryphon Intelligence look like!?”
The sounds of glasses breaking, chairs flying, and tables breaking were loudly heard inside the cabin.
It was a typical dwarven family fight.
* * *
-Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
“guy.”
Lee Han looked at the white horse with a happy expression.
As if what he had said earlier was a lie, the white horse had become obedient and calm.
To be exact, Lee Han made it that way.
All of the magic energy absorption iron bracelets and magic energy absorption belt that he had were put on the horse.
“also. “After absorbing the magic power, you become a little more obedient.”
Since all living things are born with a certain degree of magical power, they were bound to lose energy when the magical energy was absorbed.
The white horse, which had been equipped with all of the items Lee Han was wearing, was so drained that it did not even have the strength to resist.
“okay. Let’s be friends from now on.”
-Phew…
The white horse was led gently as Lee Han pulled the reins.
When Lee Han saw that scene, something suddenly occurred to him.
‘But if you can walk even with the bracelets and belt on, isn’t the horse’s horsepower more than you think?’
Either the bracelet or belt absorbs little or the horse has a lot of magic power.
‘Even if it was mixed with the blood of a real monster, the amount of magic power wouldn’t be that much. ‘Is the amount of magical power taken by the equipment less than expected?’
Lee Han walked with his horse, lost in thought.
In front, several students were hastily riding horses and were crying and begging.
-Get down, get down!! please! It’s my fault!
‘Is there a way to increase the amount of magical energy absorbed?’
It was a daily routine at magic school that I had now become accustomed to.
