chapter 21
21 – Assault (3)
“Oooh.. That hurts.”
You can say that the situation here is over.
Professor Lina’s overwhelming inaction who subdued the villain in an instant.
‘…I should have entered as a disciple.’
From the description of the novel, I only knew that it was strong.
Seeing it in real life, the level of impact is different.
“Then is this over?”
“…I haven’t received a text from Selina yet.”
What happened…?
Tee-Ring-
-Suppression complete. I’ll come back.
That’s it.
Professor Bergen’s side seems to have succeeded in subduing it as well.
Professors will take care of cleaning up.
“Operation over. Shall we go eat now?”
It was then.
Tee-Ring-
“Huh?”
The text notification sound rang again.
The sender is Selina.
-The third person. On the run after stealing things. Chase.
Duck-
Feels like your heart is sinking.
The third person?
Obviously, there were only two ‘markers’.
But the third person…?
Was there another mark in a place we don’t know about?
… This is not the time.
I look around in a hurry.
The situation is already quite far from the annex.
It’s too late to call Professor Lina.
“Neneto! Is there anyone fighting nearby?”
“… What are you talking about?”
“There was one more. Selina is in pursuit.”
“What?”
Quickly, Neneto blew magic into his eyes.
“… I can’t see it. There is a high probability that they are inside the building.”
Damn it.
Neneto’s vision enhancement is not an area of clairvoyance.
If the location is inside a building…!
Between the production department dormitory and the martial arts department dormitory where Selina returns
There is only one building.
The main building.
“… The main building.”
Neneto is a non-combat class..
It is more helpful to ask for reinforcements than to go with them.
“Neneto! Ask your professor for help! I’ll be wasting my time!”
“Huh?… What. For a moment. Lie!”
————————————————————————- —-
Selina hid in an alleyway and watched Professor Verzen subdue the villain.
After a battle that took place in an instant, the suppression was completed safely.
‘Fortunately, things seem to have worked out.’
Then the only thing left to do is to return undetected.
Sug-
Let’s get out of the alley and move to the dormitory.
“Oh right.”
I have to report it.
Send text messages by manipulating the smart watch.
-Suppression complete. I’ll come back.
hehehe.
I felt relieved when the problem I had been worrying about for a while disappeared.
‘I wondered what would happen…’
What comes to mind even at this moment is the man who helped solve all of this.
‘Rye.’
Thank you beyond words.
The image of the man in his medical room looking him in the eyes and saying, ‘I believe you.’
Even now thinking about it made his heart pound.
Was it such a joy to be trusted by someone?
-Because it’s Selina.
“…”
After that day, she had trouble sleeping for a while.
“Ha… How should I pay off this debt…”
It was then.
As Selina walked to her dormitory, a suspicious doll was reflected in her eyes.
‘…People?’
A person walking down a hallway looking through the windows of the main building.
A man wearing a suspicious robe was walking down the hallway on the third floor with something on his back.
“…”
Who walks around the school grounds in a robe on the weekends?
‘Something went wrong.’
Selina quickly operated the smart watch.
-The third person. On the run after stealing things. Chase.
I don’t know why there’s another one, but we have to stop it.
I need to wait…!
Fortunately, the sun was setting.
‘… At night.’
It’s different.
I won’t be fooled like last time.
Selina ran toward her main building.
..
..
..
Tak-tak-tak.
The sound of quickly climbing the stairs.
Let’s go up the stairs to the second floor.
An alarm sounded from somewhere.
-Wheeyeeeing-!!
A man’s voice came from the end of the hallway.
“Tch… They said it would paralyze it for a while, but it really only lasted for a while.”
Unforgettable.
A familiar voice with a frivolous tone.
‘Beinhard Sert.’
There is no doubt that the man who was in his former family.
“What. But now all that’s left is to escape, so it’s simple…”
Selina stood in front of the man.
“Huh? Who is this?”
The corner of the man’s mouth went up.
“Aren’t you the genius daughter of the Weinhard family? Are you here for self-study?”
A sarcastic tone.
Selina warned in a calm voice.
“…Leave your things and surrender.”
“Surrender?”
Ha ha ha!
A man’s laughter echoes through the hallway.
“Me? … Why?”
“Don’t underestimate the academy. The professors will come running soon.”
… To be honest, I’m not confident.
It’s just waiting for this man to escape.
“That’s it…”
“Isn’t it enough if I kill you before that?”
The new type of man disappears in an instant.
And.
Kwajik.
The sound of nails digging into the skin.
“I’m sorry, but wouldn’t that be difficult?”
-Quaang!
“Hmm.. That’s right.”
A man’s hand is blocked by a red wall.
Let’s keep some distance.
I see Serena’s eyes stained red.
“Has the time already been like this..”
Night had fallen around them before they knew it.
The moonlight gently streams through the windows.
“Certainly, considering his age, his skills are ridiculous.”
Mana control over a wide area enough to cover one side of the hallway.
“He deserves to be coveted.”
The man opened her mouth as if showing kindness to Selina.
“One last question. Does he intend to join the organization?”
“…Nothing.”
“…Really? I’m glad.”
The man continued with a mean smile.
“Because he was wondering what to do if he said he would come in.”
The man running again.
Selina quickly pumped her blood from underneath her onto her.
The barrier of blood rose upward in an instant, like water cutting a diamond.
The man’s arm was amputated.
“..?!”
This easy…?
No.
‘…Didn’t you avoid it?’
Iron chuck.
The red barrier disappears.
I saw the figure of a man.
A deeply grotesque sight.
The right arm had been severed up to the elbow, and black blood was gushing out.
Puquaa!
“Eh. Ha ha!! It hurts terribly!”
“… Did you go crazy after all?”
The man smirked at Selina. I laughed.
“Look closely.”
“This. It is the ‘power’ that you rejected.”
Sloppy-
An ominous black cell rose from the amputation site.
Kuluck.
The blood that had stained the hallway windows black gathered on the man’s arm.
And finally the finished thing.
A black hand several times the size of a man’s body.
Selina’s words went cold.
“Stupid b*tch.”
-Quaang!!!
Belatedly, I tried to defend myself, but I couldn’t help it.
A black arm piercing through the wall of blood like a piece of paper and approaching in front of you.
“Kyaaah!”
A black arm gripped Selina’s body.
I started applying pressure as if I was about to explode.
At that time.
– Bang bang bang!
The sound of someone hurrying up the stairs.
Soon after that, he was breathing heavily and looking impatient, which is rare.
A man appeared.
————————————————————————- —-
“Huhhh… Big hhhhh…”
I am out of breath.
My legs are shaking.
“Ah..!!! A little!”
My body doesn’t listen.
Selina is in danger.
Even so, my body is absurdly slow.
‘… I should have exercised normally.’
A feeling of powerlessness in the body whenever night comes.
I usually only work in areas with light or
I have only escaped by preparing countermeasures against it.
…We’re almost all the way to the main building.
-Wheeeing!!!
A warning magic sound from the main building.
It became clear that this was the main building.
“..Where is it?”
The main building is spacious.
If it is difficult to pinpoint the location, time will be delayed for a long time in this state of the body.
Quickly scatter buildings.
1St floor…
2Nd floor…
3Rd floor.
I found it.
The window in the right hallway on the third floor was stained red.
‘The battle is already in progress.’
Run towards the stairs on the right with all your might.
-Kyaaah!
Scream.
‘Damn it..’
Is it too late?
I don’t listen. I squeeze my leg muscles and climb the stairs.
2Nd floor…
3Rd floor!
Before her eyes, Selina is held in her huge black hand.
The man presumed to be the villain opened his mouth.
“What are you?”
‘…Damn it.’
Worst imaginable situation.
Selina has already been subdued.
The dark hallway took away my strength.
But…
‘Huh? My physical condition…’
I was getting better and better.
It was then.
From the cloth that was tied to the man’s back. Light leaked out
-Paat.
“Big..! This chewy sword is …! “
Sword..?
A huge hand swayed. Selina swayed and fell to her floor.
‘..Status.’
The area around her chest is moving slowly up and down.
I’m glad. I’m hiding
‘Then all that’s left…’
“Damn it!”
The man threw the cloth on the floor.
Ting! With a shout
An object was whirled around and stuck on one side of the hallway.
“Why do I have to do things right as a vampire?”
Where did the other two go…! Useless bastards.”
The man and I met eyes.
“.. Isn’t it? By the looks of it, you look like a vampire too.”
“That is..”
Sir.
“It’s hard to agree.”
Injects mana into the shadow.
This is the third actual performance.
It is not easy to subdue the enemy with my shallow combat experience.
So first of all.
‘I will endure as much as I can.’
“Time is running out now..”
The man opened his mouth without hiding his nervousness.
A man quickly rushes in front of his eyes.
At the same time, I also release mana into the shadows.
Quaaang!!
“Kuh… What is this..!”
High-powered coercion.
It was the power that broke Shin Jong-gil’s knee.
The man in front of me knelt down and endured.
I can feel the black energy resisting the mana pressure.
Pressing and pushing each other as if they were fighting for strength.
“Great…! Ah!”
The mana was momentarily released from the man’s body, and he escaped from the coercion and immediately opened the distance.
————————————————————————- —-
“You…”
Irritability dwells in the man’s complexion.
– Shiny!
The bastards who keep showing up and interrupting our work.
As if this is an opportunity.
That damned sword that sparkles and shines.
..!
That’s it.
Right now, it’s wrapped in a special cloth, so the output is that much.
If you unwrap the fabric, a tremendous amount of light will instantly burst out.
Because he had already been ‘baptized’, his resistance to light was quite high.
A great power that can overcome even light.
Although you are affected to some extent by your own lack of faith…
Who is that guy?
Sir.
The man picked up an object.
“This guy seems to like you quite a bit. Well then… Take a closer look!”
————————————————————————- —-
The man suddenly threw an object at me.
..? What?
Willilic-
As if the knot had been untied on purpose, the cloth came untied and the object appeared as it flew in.
Brilliant light.
Like a legendary holy sword from a fairy tale, it flies towards us, scattering light.
A single sword.
The flying speed was not fast.
Chuck.
I naturally took the sword.
And.
Down-!
The sword in my hand emits a tremendous light.
It just disappeared.
“…”
“…”
The silence that came for a moment.
What is this, why did it suddenly disappear… ?
