I Became the Laughing Bell Character of the Academy

Lucia, who was leading Eleanor’s party as Oz instructed, was biting her nails nervously.

‘What the hell is going on?’

＜Skientia＞ has already infiltrated about 20 ＜Tenebris＞. They were spread out and were moving in their respective territories.

Therefore, it was common for each type of information to be sent was different. But now it was different.

– [Solvent] appeared in the auditorium. Check the surroundings while keeping distance from all ＜Tenebris＞ nearby.

– [Solvent] appeared in public buildings. Check the surroundings while keeping distance from all ＜Tenebris＞ nearby.

-[Solvent] appeared in the student cafeteria. Check the surroundings while keeping distance from all ＜Tenebris＞ nearby.

Everyone was sending the same information, only the location was different.

It could be said that almost all places.

But only one place was different.

-All the ＜Tenebris＞ in the 1st year exam hall must escape.

There was no [solvent] in the testing room where she was now.

I was able to somehow infer what was going on.

It was impossible not to know because the dead surrounded them.

Perhaps the place [Songje] wandered around was in a similar situation.

I can now understand what Oz said. The [Myeongwang] has invaded.

“Huh!”

Eleanor wields her greatsword and cuts down the dead who are approaching.

Baek Yang was either tying the feet of the dead or blocking them with a shield, and Lucia was also busy sniping at them.

‘So, to Marie Sistus… … ? But why?’

Lucia couldn’t stop questioning even in the urgent moment when she had to put a mana bullet into the forehead of the dead.

There is definitely Marie Sistus behind this incident.

That’s to be expected, even if it’s not her. Because she is the only one from ＜Underworld＞ in ＜Skientia＞.

It was to some extent expected that Tia would not show up for the exam.

All the students in the practice room will have her magic tools, so even if they are defeated by the dead, they will naturally gather outside the test room.

It wouldn’t be strange if you put your priorities behind you.

But there were also things I couldn’t quite understand.

‘Why on earth are you sending us to Mari’s side?’

The Empire’s policy toward Eleanor was basically neglect.

But it was their job to keep her out of the shadows.

At least until her mind settles down, it would be better not to take a country-wide approach.

‘What the hell is Prince Oz thinking?’

So what is Oz’s purpose?

Lucia didn’t know exactly, but thought they were similar.

It’s understandable given how angry he was with her the other day.

“uh… … ?”

While she was thinking like that, Eleanor, who was standing in the battle line and cutting down the dead, let out a dumbfounded sound.

“number of animals?”

“No, Noah… … ? why? Uh, why are you here… … .”

Upon hearing that brief conversation, Lucia immediately pulled the trigger.

Ting!

However, the magic bullet she fired naturally bounced off.

The outrageous fraud was blocking the approach of the bullet itself.

Undoubtedly. The person behind this incident is Marie Sistus.

“Noah! Back off!”

“uh… … ? uh huh?”

“What are you doing!”

Kwajik!

Baekyang grabbed the scruff of Eleanor’s neck, who still couldn’t grasp the situation, and pulled her back.

At the same time, the seat where Eleanor had been was dented.

Upon closer inspection, something opaque surrounded Marie.

It was probably an attack using it.

“Oh, no. father······. please. Please. Kids can’t.”

“number of animals?”

Marie spoke as if pleading, dyeing her already pale face even paler.

However, despite such pleas, the opaque object that surrounded her became clearer and clearer.

“Daughter, why are you hesitating?”

An incarnation of a giant skull.

A ghastly skeleton was wrapped around Marie.

“friend… … . yes, my friend So please… … .”

“Right. Were you friends?”

It was a tone of understanding, but everyone could feel it, even if it wasn’t Marie. The author is the owner of ＜Underworld＞… … .

“But why are you hesitating? Isn’t it something we’ll meet again after death anyway?”

“No. please······.”

That I have no intention of keeping them alive.

『There is no need to worry. With my fraud, even adults who should go to the heavens can be dragged down to the underworld.”

Quaang!

[King] Thanatos, who was in the shape of a skull, swung his fist at Baekyang, who was raising his shield as if showing off.

“white poplar!”

It was a blow.

Even Baekyang, an SR-grade guardian, flew into the sky without being able to withstand the blow.

“Ugh?!”

Eleanor caught the white sheep that was falling in a parabolic arc, and it rolled to the ground with its recoil.

She wrapped her body around Baek-yang as much as possible so that she wouldn’t get hurt, but Baek-yang’s body was already stained red.

Fortunately, before Baekyang died instantly, the cloak Tia had given her glowed and transported her out of the test site.

‘This is dangerous… … .’

Lucia thought as she felt her tail on the bristle. I could tell because she had a better sense than others.

The opponent is dangerous even though it is in an unstable form.

Even if they ran away with all their might, I wasn’t sure if they would succeed.

“Noah, run away from here… … .”

“Why are you doing this?”

“Noah… … ?”

Lucia was surprised to see Eleanor’s hostile expression.

How could that be?

[King] The existence of Thanatos itself causes fear.

Even if it wasn’t for Lucia, a beastman, she could easily feel the power she had just before.

Death is right in front of you.

By the way… … .

‘How can I be confident?’

Eleanor was not frightened.

He didn’t back down an inch, as if he knew what was scarier than that.

“Why are you doing this? Marie is suffering, Baekyang is injured.”

Eleanor grabbed the greatsword.

Lucia broke out in a cold sweat. It was a moment of choice.

‘Damn it.’

Reason is telling her to abandon Eleanor and run away right now. But she is a soldier.

It was her job to obey even unreasonable orders, and it was her job to obey them.

‘Even though Prince Oz is not my boss… … .’

Lucia would probably have given the same order if the leader of ＜Tenebris＞ was here.

Lucia aimed her two pistols and looked at Thanatos.

“Whoa… … .”

From now on, I have no choice but to trust and assist Eleanor.

“Ugh… … ! please, father… … !”

『Move.』

Thanatos seemed to have a penalty besides the instability of his form.

He seemed to be unable to move more than necessary because he was always connected to Marie.

While Lucia was at least a little relieved, Eleanor frowned at Marie.

“You said you were Mary’s father. Are you still watching your daughter in pain?”

『Suffering always accompanies death, so it is natural.』

“I am not asking about the principle of death, but about the relationship between a daughter and a father.”

『Is there a need to think of a relationship beyond what is necessary for a daughter that can be created at any time?』

“okay. I knew it would.”

Eleanor fixed her greatsword.

Her sapphire-blue eyes shone like jewels.

“Then I will take your daughter. I will treat you well.”

It sounded a bit odd, but what she meant was clear.

“So stay away from Marie! You f*cking bastard!!!”

She was declaring war on [Myungwang].

Eleanor immediately rushed towards the [Pyeongwang].

Lucia, who watched the scene, let out a drool.

‘This is crazy.’

There is no way that a warrior of Eleanor’s level could block an attack that even Baekyang, a guardian, could not withstand a single blow.

And even if you avoid it. Even the attack of the shooter with high attack power couldn’t pierce [Myungwang]’s terrible morale.

It was impossible for Eleanor’s attack to reach.

While Lucia thought about that, she pulled the trigger once. In any case, the decision was made to cover Eleanor for now.

If that’s the case, I’ll do my best to give her a way out.

If Oz’s judgment wasn’t wrong, there must be a reason.

bang!

Lucia’s pistol flies at the [Myeongwang] leaving an afterglow of blue mana.

The bullets made of mana were pulverized by [Myungwang]’s morale and did not do any damage, but Lucia did not stop pulling the trigger.

bang! bang!

She didn’t stay still, and flexibly ran around like a cat, pulling the trigger more.

bang! bang! bang! bang!

The two pistols she holds increase the afterglow of mana in the air. The blue lines left in the air do not disappear and engrave their traces in the space.

“Huh!”

Lucia, who had been pulling the trigger for a long time, stretched out her hand toward [Myung-king], and the afterglow of mana that had been densely gathered took shape all at once and began to fly toward [Myung-king].

An attack corresponding to Lucia’s active skill 2, which has a restraint, which is rare for a shooter character.

[Intertwining thorns]

Lucia was a character with a restraint, which is rare for a shooter character that focuses on offensive abilities.

She raises the party’s safety at once… … .

“As expected, this doesn’t work… … .”

Compared to other shooters, the attack power was rather low.

Lucia frowned as she saw that the [Thorn] she had sent could not even reach the [Myeongwang].

She, who is good at quick-fire, couldn’t pierce [Myungwang]’s morale.

[King of Kings] might also know that fact, but Lucia didn’t pay attention and attacked Eleanor, who was jumping around.

‘Dangerous… … .’

Compared to Yang Baek, Eleanor moves faster.

I could barely avoid [Myung-king]’s attack, but it seemed like there was no way to defeat [Myung-king].

To make matters worse, Eleanor had taken off her cloak.

It must have been deliberately taken off so that the defense magic would not be lost and transmitted.

No matter how you look at it, she seemed unwilling to back down.

Lucia pulled the trigger nervously.

Neither had the means to attack.

At least, it would have been nice if Lucia’s bullets could take away even a little bit of the [Myeongwang]’s morale, but she didn’t have a single shot of that power.

Her specialty, quick-fire, is unable to stop the [Myeongwang], who is connected to the ＜Underworld＞ and is attracting near-infinite scams.

“Oops!”

Eleanor, on the other hand, was drooling in agony as she managed to free herself from the king’s arm.

“Are you tired? Are you out of breath? Does the pitiful body scream? Nothing to worry about. Soon you will be freed from all those inconveniences.”

“Never mind!”

Eleanor, who was closer to [The King] than Lucia, also knew that the current situation was quite dangerous.

Her friend, Lucia, was giving her best, but she couldn’t see a way to defeat [Myungwang].

‘If we go on like this… … .’

It felt like his arm was about to fall from repeated attacks. Even my head hurt from concentrating on avoiding [Myungwang]’s attack.

I was short of breath.

Moreover, the extreme tension made Eleanor feel isolated. If you go on like this, you will lose.

‘it’s okay.’

As if trying to calm her trembling body, she began to step forward instead.

Lucia is around. She is not alone yet.

Eleanor regained her composure and swung her sword at [Myungwang].

kang!

With a dull metallic sound, Eleanor was greatly pushed back.

The distance I had filled up with courage just before returned to its original position.

For a moment, a feeling of hopelessness came over her, but Eleanor looked forward again.

“it’s okay… … .”

she was feeling scared. It wasn’t the fear of death.

Every time she felt ‘something’ inside her, she felt the fear of loss.

“it’s okay.”

bang!

Once again, Eleanor took a powerful step towards the [Pyeongwang].

she remembered

The promise made on that tumultuous night was still ringing in my ears.

-······There are a lot of people. Even if I’m alone and isolated in the meantime, will you find me?

-yes.

-… … Even if I was locked up in a dark and confined place with my eyes and ears covered and I was isolated and unable to speak, would you find me?

-Yes, even if it is in the middle of a battlefield, I will find you and talk to you.

The token of trust she felt with her little finger that day was relieving her anxiety.

Yes, just one is enough.

If that one person remembered her, that was it.

Even if everyone else forgets, she may not disappear.

As long as she has someone she can rely on, even if her existence is forgotten, they can restore their relationship again and again.

That’s it.

“Then it’s okay!”

“Do you think things will change if you push yourself like that?”

“Yes, change!”

Eleanor responded vigorously to [The King]’s mockery and raised her greatsword.

The greatsword that began to glow golden was pointing at [Myungwang].

She no longer hides or avoids.

Eleanor faced the king’s attack from the front and took a stance.

“My mindset has changed dramatically!”

kang!

At the same time as he said that, the greatsword that Eleanor wielded dyed even the morale of [Pyeongwang] with its own color and carved scars on his bones.

The power the greatsword possessed was not mana.

It wasn’t even magic, fraud, yogi, or even divine power.

It is the power of harmony that dyes everything with her color.

[Key of the Understanding]

Eleanor’s key is small, but it opens the door.
