chapter 48
48. Taowon Resolution
Hell is descending on the world.
Theresia, who appeared, was seen as the devil who controlled the hell.
“Wow, what! This is- Kolok!”
The cadets locked in the realm suffered from coughing rather than breathing in the hot air.
Theresia looked at it and casually approached her and swung her sword.
Whoops!
The artifact is broken, and one cadet disappears.
The other cadets who saw it looked at my summoned beast in amazement, but… … .
—Beep, beep, beep.
—Kek, Kolok! keek!
Even those summoned beasts are suffering. This is the power of craftsmanship.
Special Arts that can only be used by pets wearing exclusive formal dresses.
Among them, Theresia’s exclusive skill is Area Declaration.
The ability to summon the last battlefield she experienced during her lifetime.
Calling out the battlefield where all the Phoenix Knights, including her, had sacrificed their lives.
“Surrender.”
Saying so, Theresia looked at the cadets suffering from the rising air.
Since it was not a direct attack, it is not considered eliminated. Now, didn’t she just heat up the air?
If this level of judgment was to be eliminated, there was a possibility that the huge summoned beasts would be eliminated just by walking.
“That’s the way to get comfortable.”
“Huh, the sound… … !”
The blonde-haired girl raised her upper body and resisted Theresia. Seeing her trying to stand up from this heat, Theresia exclaimed, “Oh-“.
“You have a high spirit.”
The blonde, roll-haired girl, who proudly rejected her proposal, summoned her summoned beast, a rock golem, and attacked Theresia.
“But to no avail.”
spatula-.
The golem is cut by a sword that you don’t know when it was drawn. The cut section began to melt like lava.
A wound that even a golem cannot regenerate. Seeing my summoned beast collapsed without any resistance, the girl faintly passed out.
“Kek, save me… … .”
“surrender… … I will surrender… … .”
After that, the cadets who had not yet surrendered eventually collapsed one by one in the scorching heat.
After all the cadets were down, Ian looked at Theresia and told her to collect her skills.
“Well then… … now.”
When Ian got up and grabbed the wrist of the first girl who fell down and tried to retrieve the artifact.
“… … Ian?”
“—Ian!”
“Stella and De Noir?”
Belatedly, Stella and Dinoir appeared.
* * *
“Ian-!”
Ignoring the fallen children, Dinoir ran straight up and hugged him. She hugged me and started observing me for any injuries.
“it’s okay-!? Where are you hurt? are you sick? Would you like to just give up the exam and rest?”
“Don’t be fussy. For something like this, give up the exam.”
“But—!”
“It’s okay, I have more to do than that.”
Pushing away the clinging Dinoir, I recovered the artifacts of the fallen children one by one.
And he destroyed all the collected artifacts at once. Tiling Tiling. Every time I smashed an artifact, my artifact vibrated and resounded.
After earning dozens of points in an instant, Dinois-senpai rushed towards me who was happy.
I looked at Stella while comforting Denoir-senpai.
“So, what happened?”
“… … what?”
“They are looking for you. You were there and suddenly you disappeared.”
“… … Did you?”
Stella said she didn’t know what I was saying and bit her lip. He even turned his head away as if he was too embarrassed to speak.
To some extent, I understood why she was doing that. That’s right, it’s as if she ended up passing all the enemies she had brought on to me.
It must have been very difficult for Princess Iritsu to admit that she had caused harm to others because of her.
I pretended not to know and turned my head to look at Dino.
She was buried in charcoal soot all over her body where she had been wallowing in the mud.
“Senior, aren’t you hurt?”
Saying so, he pointed to her knee. Behind the charcoal soot here and there, a small, blood-stained wound caught my eye.
DiNoir suddenly began to limp, as if he had only discovered my wounds after I pointed.
“Ouch- … … Go, it hurts all of a sudden.”
“Where is the pond nearby?”
“Oh, hey, if it’s a pond, I know.”
But Dinois expressed that it was really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, unfortunately, it was very difficult to get there because of a broken leg.
Her dark intentions were clearly visible. I knelt in front of her and turned my back to her.
“What are you doing? Hurry up- ugh.”
“Wow, it’s heavy… ?”
“No, I was a little surprised.”
I was just a little startled by the sudden jump without saying a word, but it’s not like she’s really heavy… … did.
‘The chest… … .’
When she weighed about 50 kg, she said that her breasts were probably about 10% large.
Thanks to this, she had to lay her upper body down quite a bit because there was a risk that she would fall because she was too upright.
I wrapped my arms around her butt, which was as strong as her chest, and stood up.
“It-.”
“So senior? Which one?”
“… … this way.”
I deliberately let out a sigh in my ear and tried to ignore the bewitching words, and I looked back at Stella.
Then, as if she was taking care of herself, Stella exhaled her nose with her arms crossed, avoiding my eyes.
‘Tsundere in moderation.’
Watching her just stand still, I lightly stepped forward.
“what are you doing? If you don’t follow me, will you leave me?”
“Go, go together!”
When he really showed a sign of abandoning her and leaving, Stella belatedly followed me.
If that’s the case, how good it would be to play aegyo from the start, at best, it’s a waste of the subject that was born with a pretty face.
* * *
Shoot ah-.
The place Dinois was guided to was upstream of a river with a large waterfall.
Indeed, when I found clean water, I carefully scooped out the water and checked to see if there were any foreign substances.
‘I think I can just eat it.’
Just in case, after swallowing a very small amount, I waited for about 5 minutes to confirm that there was no problem, and suggested water to the two of them.
The two of them, like me, scooped up the water by hand to taste the water, then dip their feet and shake off the mud on their bodies.
“What to do with the water… … .”
“… … You can dry it.”
“With what?”
“What do you mean? Have you forgotten who I am? Just bring firewood.”
She said so and showed the back of my hand. It was then that I realized again that this was a fantasy, and that she was a summoner with a summoning beast of fire.
As such, there were times when the real world and the other world were confused. Even after several months have passed, he has not been affected by the common sense of another world. Maybe it’s because I’m too old to learn anything?
As I gathered firewood by cutting branches around it, Stella blew out flames from the back of her hand.
The flames spurted out like a flamethrower and immediately set fire to the branches… … The intense flames slowly began to blow away the moisture from their clothes.
Like two people, he reached out his hand to the bonfire and enjoyed the warm temperature, then suddenly raised his head and looked at the two of them.
And he immediately bowed his head.
‘… … It was wet, yes.’
The water they had applied to wipe the mud off their outer garments crept into their outer garments, and the white school uniforms showed the two men’s underwear.
As I bowed my head, Stella, who felt puzzled, tilted her head and asked.
“What, why? Are you sick?”
“… … no.”
“But why are you doing that?”
“To create an excuse for later.”
“—? It sounds weird.”
Stella said so and looked at Dinoir to ask her consent.
Stella looked at Dinoir, who had been basking in the warm fire, and realized that her clothes were soaked in water and reflected all the way to the inside.
Surprised, she lowered her head to check her attire, but it was the same as she reflected on herself.
Then Stella realized the truth of my words and asked me while grinding my teeth.
“… … saw?”
“then.”
“… … transformation-.”
“It’s unfortunate. It was you who showed me.”
“That dignified attitude is a pervert.”
“… … What are you two talking about?”
Perhaps he didn’t like talking only about himself, so Dinoir, who was basking in the fire, stuck out his mouth and intervened in the story.
Stella pointed to her breasts without saying a word – looking down at her own, Dinoir blushed when she discovered a plain white bra that half exposed her breasts.
He even mumbled as if he was making an excuse.
“… … Come on, I don’t usually wear something like this.”
“yes. All right.”
“I really am! I mean, I usually wear something cuter and s*xier… !”
I was ignoring De Noir-senpai, who cares more about how he looked rather than what he was shown, and I finally brought up the full-fledged story.
“So, you two. What are you going to do from now on?”
“Yes?”
“… … what?”
Dinoa-senpai questioned as if she didn’t know anything, and Stella tried to pretend she didn’t know.
But I had to be clear about what to do.
“It’s an exam right now, so we’re enemies in a way?”
“Me, enemy? Ian, you’re going to kill me… ?”
“… … This isn’t that kind of test. Anyway, if you accept the conditions, I will accept the two of you.”
“Condition?”
“Yes, conditions.”
But before I could say anything, Dinoir raised her hand lightly and opened her mouth.
“Nana! I will accept it!”
“You haven’t told me the conditions yet?”
“It’s okay, it’s okay- I can do anything Ian asks… .”
So, Dinoy-senpai immediately became on my side. I smiled and looked at Stella.
As long as it’s 2-1 from 1v2, there’s no chance she’ll win no matter what. How much less did she lose in a one-on-one match with me?
hahaha, Stella sighed lightly, and stuck out her tongue to hear the conditions.
“therefore? What are the conditions?”
“This test, help me get first place.”
“… … Did you care about rankings?”
“no?”
He shook his head at Stella’s words. Ranking doesn’t feed me, so where am I supposed to pay attention to that?
However, this test is different. It was because the system fed me, not the ranking.
“… … Well, okay. That’s enough.”
“Can you not aim for the rankings?”
“Idiot- the higher your ranking, the better it is for me, right?”
“Why is that so?”
“Why?”
Stella gave a small smile and gave the answer.
“If you lose to 1st place in the midterm exam or 1st place in the special exam, people will say so.”
“… … Okay, so there’s nothing else to say later?”
“Of course you are.”
“I, me too!”
The three of us reached out and started overlapping at the same time. Was I the only one who thought that it was like Taowongyeol of the Three Kingdoms?
Perhaps it is. Because there were no three kingdoms in this world.
