chapter 26
26 – Assassination of the 1st Princess (6)
A student collapsed among numerous corpses and bloodstains.
“Raiden… student?”
Korn was taken aback by the sight, but moved quickly.
In an instant, Korn approached Raiden and examined his condition.
Raiden, who was lying in agony, was a mess.
The tattered left arm and shoulder,
The right arm, which was reddened and twitched from time to time,
Suits and shoes stained with blood,
Even the face that turned pale.
I wondered if I could check my pulse,
Sure enough, the pulse signaled that he was on the verge of dying.
Korn was astonished at that and quickly called Professor Aron next to him.
“Professor Aaron!”
“Yes! principal!”
“This student’s condition is serious! Please move to the health room quickly!”
“yes! I’ll be right there!”
Professor Aron hugs Raiden and disappears in an instant.
Khorne looked around, seeing if there were any other injured people.
Fortunately, no one among the students appeared to be injured.
She turned her head and returned to the student she was talking to earlier.
“Please explain properly what happened here.”
“That, that, the devil…”
“Damn it, I’m speechless.”
The student only talked about strange things with gibberish, wondering if there was a panic due to the aftermath of the terrorism.
Korn shook his head and sent a whole tone to the faculty.
[Select students who are in good condition, and prioritize understanding the situation.]
[Find out everything that happened during the terror attack.]
[And report it to me right away.]
In accordance with her tone, the faculty began to move in unison.

As soon as my consciousness returned, and I opened my closed eyes, I saw the white ceiling with the pattern of Reynolds Academy engraved on it.
“It’s an unfamiliar ceiling…”
Because of the ceiling I had never seen before, I muttered a line that seemed to come out of a frozen water.
It doesn’t matter, I’m a real possessor.
Honestly, don’t you all want to try this line at least once if you don’t know the ceiling when you wake up?
I thought about things that were not poetic, and brushed off my hazy mind.
As the blurry eyes came into focus, and the stiff body began to move,
I got up from the bed I was lying on.
“Ugh…”
My body trembled because of the muscle pain I felt all over my body.
As I groaned and stood up, a voice came from the front.
“You are awake.”
A voice that is soft, yet sharp, and slightly sharp.
It was a voice I knew.
“principal…?”
Principal of Reynolds Academy, Coron Logesia.
She was standing some distance away, looking at me.
I looked at her and tilted my head.
‘Why is the principal here all of a sudden…? ……Oh right.’
I belatedly remembered seeing Korn’s figure right before he lost consciousness.
Damn, I’m out of my mind because I’m sober.
I held my throbbing hair and opened my mouth.
“How did it…?”
First of all, I asked like that because I had to understand the situation first.
Well, I’m just guessing.
I wonder if the professors sorted out the situation and moved me to the health room.
Korn glared at me slightly and gave me an answer.
The words that came out of her mouth were exactly what I roughly expected.
“…That’s how the situation was sorted out.”
“okay…”
It ended without any damage.
No one was hurt, and Lucy and Anna, who were the targets, are safe.
I let out a sigh of relief and leaned my back against the bed.
It’s fortunate, if it was the original, there would have been quite a lot of people getting hurt and dying.
‘Well… did I block it?’
As I thought so, a familiar mechanical sound rang in my ears as if I was answering.
-Titling!
At the same time, blue windows floated in front of my eyes.
[Main quest complete!]
[title]
Save the princess!
[Contents]
Stop the assassination of the first princess at the banquet…(Read more)
[compensation]
2000 points
The reward is 2000 points…
Due to the purchase of ‘temporary explosive power’ while beating Alan not long ago, the points that were lost were fully filled.
It was five times the amount of points he had originally.
‘It’s worth the hard work.’
I looked at the status window with a light smile on my lips.
While I was looking at the status window with a happy expression, Korn, who was standing in Ampe, looked at me strangely.
“Raiden students…? What are you looking at…”
“Oh, nothing.”
I waved my hand and turned off the status window.
When I turned off the status window, the blue windows in front of me disappeared, and I could see Khorne’s figure hidden behind them again.
She was staring at me, slightly frowning.
There was something strange about her eyes.
Those eyes, as if doubting something.
I questioned him and asked.
“Why do you…?”
At my question, she was silent for a moment, then opened her mouth.
“I asked the students at the banquet hall what happened during the terror attack.”
I silently nodded at those words.
Of course, because we have to investigate terrorism.
“They said you handled the whole situation by yourself.”
“Uh… yes, right?”
“What did you do?”
“yes…?”
At my question, Korn narrowed his eyes and said.
“Those terrorists, at the level of academy students, were not at the level of people who could do anything about it. It means that the barrier around the banquet hall was not normal, either.”
“……”
“But the Raiden student slaughtered 10 of those terrorists. And that in 10 minutes.”
“……”
“How did you do it?”
I guess it’s because they sell it. It’s all sh*t.
-I couldn’t answer, so I quietly exercised my right to remain silent.
Korn glared at me like that.
“……”
“……”
It’s kind of scary when one of the world’s strongest people stares at you like that.
I sighed inwardly and turned my head.
Then, Korn, who was glaring at me, sighed and relaxed his eyes.
“Ha… I’m sorry. I keep getting sensitive because the situation is the situation.”
“No, it’s fine.”
“Student Raiden must be tired from being injured… I’m just too lazy…”
You know, you know.
What principal in the world craves an injured student as soon as he wakes up?
Swallowing the words, I quietly nodded my head.
Korn laughed bitterly as if he had read my thoughts.
“I will come to talk later. Take it easy now. I’ve healed all the wounds, but the fatigue will be the same.”
Korn turned slightly and headed for the door of the infirmary.
I wanted to leave the health room like that, but she stopped in front of the door.
Then he turned slightly and looked at me.
“Come to think of it, I forgot one thing.”
“……?”
She leaned over and said to me, who was looking at her as if to say something else.
A waist that is carefully bent at 90 degrees.
It was a right angle entrance that I heard only in words.
“Thank you, student Leiden.”
“yes…?”
“Thanks to the students, everyone was able to escape this terror attack. On behalf of the entire Academy, thank you.”
A sudden thank you.
Even so, it was a very sincere and sincere thank you.
I couldn’t think of anything to say to him, so I just stared at her.
Then she raised her head again and smiled lightly at me.
“Then, rest in peace.”
With those words, she left the health room.
“……”
I blankly looked at the door where she had disappeared.
I felt strange when I received a thank you that I could not have imagined.
It’s a tingling, yet oddly warm feeling.
It was obviously a difficult and dangerous event, but I thought it was quite rewarding.
“what……?”
Was it too thirsty for the feelings of others?
Even though I just received the thank you I deserved, I felt good.
I thought, feeling a little warm inside.
That being said, I think the results are pretty good.
The thought I had, was shattered in just one day.
.
.
.
The next day, when my muscle pain subsided, I prepared to leave the hospital.
The wounds healed neatly without a single scar, perhaps because of the high-quality potion.
The left arm, which was completely tattered, was still a bit difficult to move, but there was no problem.
As I opened the door to the infirmary, admiring the effects of medicine and healing potions from another world,
Two things standing in front of the door attacked me.
“brother!!”
“young master!!”
It was Ariel and Rachel.
The two people who suddenly jumped out, clung to me and hugged my body tightly.
I looked at the two and made a surprised expression.
“Ray? Ariel? Why are you guys here?”
The two of them hugged me and each started to cry and mumble.
“Whisper… I’m in the dormitory… Whip… I heard the story of the boy being taken to the health room…”
“I’m at school…”
Both of them seemed to have come running as soon as they heard that I had been admitted to the infirmary.
The academy’s health room is not open…
So, were they both just waiting at the door for me to come out?
Even from yesterday?
Gosh…
“Brother… you’re not going to die…?”
“Bocchan… I can’t go back…”
I patted the backs of the two people who were clinging to me and crying sadly.
I should have given you a word in advance.
sorry for something
……And it seems like something good.
In the past, even if I was injured during training, I lived by wrapping bandages on my own.
There are two people here who come running to me as soon as I get hurt…
When I felt a little bit sad, I hugged the two people who were attached to me.
“Don’t worry, I’m not dying, both of you…”
“Sniff… Really…?”
“Well, it’s just a little bit painful.”
In reality, it hurt, not just lightly, but terribly.
I stroked the heads of the two crying people and soothed them.
My hand on my head, two people purring at the same time.
I smiled at that look and said.
“Everyone seems tired. Shall we go back to the dorms?”
“Sniff… your son-in-law…”
“Ugh…”
I led the two of us through the corridors of the academy’s main building.
The two of them also walked in step with me.
bruise
You can hear each other’s footsteps overlapping evenly,
I felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
After walking for a while like that, we were able to reach the carriage stop ahead.
And at the same time as the island in front of the stop, I ran into the people who were waiting for the wagon first.
“uh…?”
“Raiden…?”
There are the main characters of yesterday’s incident.
The 1st and 2nd princesses, Alan and the saint were standing there.
