Pure Love Dark Knight of the Academy

8-1. A purple phoenix and a vampire saint.

***

Morning Dennis’ class had already begun.

When the man wearing the black knight helmet, which would have always been there as usual, was nowhere to be seen,

“Richt, aren’t you here?”

The glass knight asked the red-haired wizard a question.

“Uh..? That’s right, Kai. Didn’t you see Mr. Pugu?”

“I thought I left something in the classroom because I ran out early in the morning….”

Kinel frowned and expressed an ominous expression. Because he wasn’t a person who would disappear without a word.

“..Maybe it will come during Drake’s lecture?”

“Where the hell have you been? Mr. Pugu…”

Looking around, Ariel looked for Licht, but Mardol was the only person in the classroom wearing a knight’s helmet.

“..Strange.”

Suddenly, Licht’s absence without notice.

The white-haired woman intuitively noticed something in her. The wolf ears moved a little in the helmet.

***

The Brave Bridge.

To put it simply, a pseudo-religion that still believes in the four warriors summoned in the past.

Why pseudo? Because those bastards have all fallen and become demon kings now.

As expected, the naming artist is the second grader. If that’s the case, at least the name should be changed to the Devil’s Church.

There was a big war because of that, and even And Are often mentioned.

‘The current 10 girls ended the war.’

Me and Nex left the academy and stopped at a certain place.

As seen in the game, a gigantic rock that appears to be heterogeneous, only slightly touching the barrier of the school.

It is a suspicious place no matter who sees it. Did you use some kind of perception-damping magic? Looking at the magic circle drawn on the rock, I thought.

“Here it is.”

My constitution that doesn’t work well with magic is helpful at times like this.

“Isn’t there just nothing? All there is is a large boulder… What?”

“We have to break the rocks here.”

I knocked on a rock the size of a house. Originally, this part was blown away so you could see the stairs.

“Really. When my junior touches me, I see something strange.”

A meeting place where the sun sets.

As the saying goes, it is dark under the lamp, an instance dungeon hidden underground.

There was a long line of explanations that there were traces of the cult of warriors, a mark with their pattern of four holy swords, and a piece of white priestly uniform.

In addition, the name is ‘Secret Meeting’.

If people disappear from the academy overnight, this is the most likely place.

“Do I have to destroy this…? Melt it with fire?”

“I will do it.”

A fluid is still too weak to have physical force. No matter how powerful the phoenix is, it is not an adult.

“Cheer..”

Besides, he doesn’t seem to have much energy, probably because he’s worried about Chartines. Normally, I wouldn’t know, but now it’s highly likely not.

“In the end, you end up using everything you learn.”

I drew my sword.

The gold goes here and there and makes a scratching sound when it comes out of the scabbard. It would be fine like this. I’ll be able to fire one or two more air strikes.

‘For now, let’s use the Outrageous Thrust.’

I found the surest way and straightened my posture towards the goal. The ground was scratched by feet.

Drake Ryu 2 meals.

The last remaining blank among the three basic swordsmanship movements such as stabbing, slashing, and shedding.

A combo technique that strikes the dragon’s weakness. The second ploy was created to easily stab even the hardest part.

Every object has a weakness.

I had to focus on speed. The senses of the fingertips became sensitive. I held my breath for a moment.

If you touch the evil, the dragon will become enraged and try to bite the attacker, so the basic swordsmanship is to stab the attacker without missing the gap before that.

If it’s about the size of a rock, you should be able to break it lightly. Even the normally hard scales of a dragon pierce through the cracks.

“Step back.”

“..I understand, junior.”

I said calmly to Nex. I can’t make mana flow through my body. You have to push with your body, so you have to concentrate as much as you can.

—Kaang!

I tried my best to protect the nameless saintess. You can’t be a bum here.

The sound of metal and stone clashing echoed. A rock collapsing with a pattering sound. One o’clock is urgent. It should be cut as soon as possible.

─Chang-G-Rang!

More, faster.

It can also be mixed with Shadow Slash, and the bouncing stone fragments are shed outside as much as possible with Shedding Wings. The serial attack was poured. The durability of the sword shouldn’t be a concern right now.

“Junior, what kind of swordsmanship is this?! It’s not even explosive magic!”

A little more.

Now I’m sick of seeing someone get a bad ending.

─Kagagakak!!

The rocks began to break apart as if digging with an excavator. The rupture of iron and stone made the ground vibrate like the noise of a construction site.

“…That’s it.”

I breathed a little at the tingle I felt in my hands. It’s tough, but it’s worth doing. In training with Master, I did something bigger than this for several nights.

“Wow.. All of this..? Are you really Drake’s disciple, junior?”

“Did you only buy tricks?”

“Yes, there are many people who pretend to be honest.”

Less than a few minutes. He split all the rocks that were holding their place like cornerstones and sent them flying to one side. I think I’ll have to catch the demon king later, but that’s about it.

What came out was a stairway with an eerie atmosphere.

As if to say with presence that it is a place not to be entered, even the chill radiated and gave goosebumps.

“..But how did you know this even though you are not a disciple of the wise man? Junior?”

“You must be suspicious. In the first place, who puts rocks like this in the flat academy?”

“I see…”

Have you managed to evade it? No, it’s actually like being caught. There is no way that Nex noticed. The purple eyes expressed a strange look at the intersection of the stairs and me several times.

“Well, it doesn’t matter now. Is this right?”

“Yes. You’re right.”

However, it seems that his suspicions have been cleared up. A solemn, determined expression flew over me.

‘Do you believe me even though you know it’s a lie?’

I don’t know what’s going to come out inside to call someone, and it’ll be too late to wait for the guards.

‘Status window.

The percentage that had been falling since the morning was 47%, and it is no longer visible in front of my eyes. Perhaps this is the crossroads of choice. There was no more time to delay.

“Even if we have a problem, I think the 10 girls will come looking for it.”

“I don’t have time to think. Let’s go down quickly.”

“Okay. Seniors.”

Two men ran down into the dark basement where no sunlight penetrated.

A party of knights and spiritists entered the instance dungeon.

“It’s creepy. Junior.”

“Still, it’s a bit better with a phoenix.”

“Tits.”

A purple flame that shimmers even in the dark and shines like a lantern. Thanks to that, the front looks geseumtsure.

In the game, like Merak, lighting magic was essential for dungeon raids…. Wasn’t I right now?

I remembered what happened the day before yesterday. I knew I could use magic if a medium or someone else wrote it instead of the circuit, but why did I learn through the crown prince route?

My head was pounding. How nice it would be if the saintess route was confirmed and her name appeared on the status window. It’s full of things you don’t know yet.

This dungeon is like that now, and the structure is a bit different from what I know.

“The road is too rough.”

“No matter how you look at it.”

A winding passage like an ant’s nest, it must be a structure where you have to get out of the maze anyway.

Originally, if you go around and come out in a straight line, there was a boss room at the end of the clearing.

‘The starting structure is more vicious than the original.’

I was lost in thought. Unlike in the present life, this time it is a matter of human life. You have to find a way out somehow.

Ah, there is a way.

“Nex senior.”

“Why. Junior Licht?”

Even though it’s a game, this world is real. I had been missing that fact for a while.

Structures are not invincible.

Originally, it would be impossible to destroy the dungeon structure itself, but it will be different here.

“Let’s go through the wall.”

“..What?”

“I don’t have time. Anyway, the front is a maze. Just like the road we’ve been through so far.”

I drew my sword again. I touched the wall of the cave with my palm. Fortunately, it’s still soft here. Instead, he set up a barrier with magic like a rock.

“I will make the road.”

“What..? Was that possible? This technique is different for each street corner? Advanced defense magic….”

“It is possible.”

It’s a pity for the Braves, but it doesn’t work for me.

I wonder if it’s the same magic. I can’t even mana coat the blade. That’s why the sword body has all its teeth like this.

“Hold your breath.”

I flew into the air in the direction right in front of me. Tuquaang—! Several layers of rocks collapse with a clattering sound.

“..What is it? This is His Majesty the Emperor… No, it’s empty..?”

As if someone exploded a bomb, the maze that blocked the way with a ‘pop’ sound turned into powder and made a long way forward.

“..Chirp.”

Nex’s face went white. The sparrow was also watching me, trembling. Why are you doing that? Without this, learning the Drake style is meaningless.

I wouldn’t even reach the Demon King this much.

“If there was such a thing, I should have used it a long time ago. Junior…”

“It comes with durability. I was thinking of carrying an extra sword to use this, but the wind pressure made it go away.”

I wish I had a sword that was used in the old game, but I don’t think it’s here.

“..How does Drake use it?”

“It’s a sword made from dragon’s teeth, so why not make a mass-produced one?”

To be honest, I was a little envious of Master when I saw him like this. Give me Hidden Peace monopoly or fraudulent items. Even if it’s a holy sword… That’s right, I’m not a career warrior.

“You can go forward.”

“Yes.”

The wall is patter. A wide space that collapsed with a sound. A gust of wind blew in, ventilating the narrow aisle.

“This seems like the right way. Junior.”

“Let’s go quickly.”

Unlike before it was dark, the exit where you can even see the light to see if there are lights.

But something was strange. An intense sensation stabbing the tip of the nose with every step forward.

“Ugh, what kind of smell is this?”

“A rotting corpse… Ha, you fucking bastards.”

As I walked into it, a stench wafted up. The smell of rotting flesh. The fishy smell of blood. All of this meant one thing.

A place like an arena surrounded by barbed wire came out.

“….”

Me and Nex shut up at the sight that opened up in front of us.

A mountain of two piles of people in white clothes, piled on both sides.

The hands and feet protruded in a heap and were tangled together to form one.

“Crazy..”

“I expected it, but I was dumbfounded.”

Blood was still flowing under it, soaking the ground little by little. I only moved my foot, but bloodstains were trampled on.

Looking at the arena-like place, we headed forward. Nex talked to me as if he was embarrassed.

“..A corpse? But why are the cults of warriors dying? It’s not like human sacrifice…?”

“They stabbed each other to death.”

I thought I did this because it was supposed to appear in a sequel, but it’s not white bones here.

His face frowned. I’ve been out of breath My head was dizzy.

“Because it is a common method of punishment.”

“Then this… is not your will?”

“This is what happens when you are accused of being a heretic.”

Because I’ve actually seen it a lot in games. No long words were needed to describe the villains.

“It’s a mistake like calling a hero a demon king.”

The Brave Bridge? But why is the demon king here? It shows this scene as a flashback at the moment of doing it.

.. I saw it properly there. Calling rice cakes or something.

Anyway, he’s a gentleman who really likes cruel things. In the original, it was just skipped.

There were many sad stories when I got involved with them and cleared the quest. I let out a sigh of relief.

“It’s a dogfight where you drive them into an arena… and let each other kill each other.”

“..Are you saying you like that again? Why?”

They are definitely crazy. Instead of bringing the dead back to life, bringing wealth and honor, telling the future, or granting enormous power….

“If it’s not to that extent, they won’t let you enroll.”

A pseudo-group that imposes thorough beliefs appropriate to it.

Nex started asking me questions about me, who knew a lot about the cult of warriors.

“..I heard rumors that it brings the dead back to life. But is it real?”

“A different person who looks the same on the outside.”

“What about the future?”

“If you want to go crazy, I recommend it.”

“..I will decline. Junior.”

In fact, everything like this is just an illusion. Because it’s the power of the Demon King, not the Hero. It can’t be properly applied to the world.

“They’re just trash bastards..”

“Now you know why the ten girls don’t move.”

“They were truly vicious guys. That’s just in case the moment you lose your eye here….”

“Because it is strong enough to attack the academy where the heroes are away.”

The purple-haired man nodded slightly.

He said that he could understand why the ten girls refused when he told them to run around and save Shar.

“As expected, it was only the two of us coming.”

“I feel like my stomach is about to turn.

“I also had a rough life.”

Nex, the descendant of the Ten Girls, also lost his composure and was gagging.

I was right in not bringing Kynel and Ariel. It must have been difficult to stay sane.

Looking at it this way, it was also a mistake to call the crown prince a colleague.

‘Demon King, come to think of it, everyone here is alive.’

A happy ending in a world like this, it seems my wish was a bit excessive.

“You too fell victim to the cult of warriors.”

“..Similar.”

It’s not a lie. Like the experience of being surrounded by a pack of wolves after being possessed, I also stood on the edge of the line of fire,

I have seen countless bad endings in which a nameless saintess dies even if the demon king of truth is captured. Her chest felt heavy like lead.

“Let’s go, Senior Chartinez will be in front of you.”

“Being alive, that’s right..”

“Perhaps. Because that is his personality.”

I bit her lower lip and chewed it. She is a human obsessed with the number of lives. She doesn’t kill people without calculating.

On the contrary, it’s thorough. The status window is still unresponsive. If she had failed, a notification would have popped up right away.

“Tit.. Twit..!”

Nex’s phoenix was flapping her wings nervously. At this point, did you have any information from the family head? The spirit expressed an overreaction.

“..Is the Demon King in front of you?”

“No, otherwise we wouldn’t even have found this place.”

“..What?”

“At least one apostle.”

It is an undeniable fact. He’d probably place his subordinates and watch from afar.

I looked up and looked ahead. I saw a door painted red.

This is probably the boss room.

If my memory isn’t wrong, the traces of the boss left in the dungeon were not demon kings, but apostles.

Because he hesitates, he doesn’t even go out on his own.

“…”

There may be other demon lords, so why do you think so?

Laplace, a librarian who manages a library commonly called the Akashic Records among the Ten Girls.

The ability that all wise men who see an undetermined future become incapacitated,

‘The Demon King of the Battery.’

The final boss of the original .

Because he was the only one.

“I’ll be able to rescue you. It is said that it is still beyond the head’s calculation.”

“..I will believe. Junior Richt.”
