93 – Promise (2)
cradle of empire. Clarisse Academy.
A special investigation committee was held on the academic side of the demon-related incidents and accidents that continued this year.
-perhaps… The 7th War… It must be soon.
– That’s right! ominous!
– It’s ominous. Don’t you all know? War is inevitable, and only one side has to end. Have you forgotten the reason for the establishment of this academy?
-…
When the discussion to settle the case is concluded and the discussion on the table continues with unrealistic anxiety,
Former Professor McClonn, who had retired in the worst way, had a slightly different idea.
‘certainly… It must have been that cadet back then.’
Freshman Screening Test at Lint Forest.
The cadets who were present at the time of slaying the Entity Rags, Edwin Gwynds and Rev Denek.
These two are also involved in this case.
Of course, it would be a series of coincidences close to bad luck, but surviving two demonic attacks is very meaningful.
Before judging the degree of strength,
If the will was not broken by fear engulfed… Negative experiences will also be the foundation for growth.
Therefore, McConne had already spoken to Professor Deanna.
These two must be brought up.
It was cruel, but it was clearly the passage of the hero, McClonne was not suspicious.
‘If the old man’s eyes weren’t wrong… I’d love to.’

-Did you see the devil of the lint forest?
– Did you see it? When the war hero appeared, I immediately ran away.
– Hagi, this is the main camp, but it’s no different than the Great Evil…
– What then? Are you just here to declare war?
Boune’s invasion of the academy was a hot topic, to the extent that there were no cadets in Clarisse who did not know about it.
In fact, without an army, the Great Evil appeared alone and occupied the Lint Forest.
It was difficult for everyone, not just the cadets, to understand.
-There must have been a door, the devil’s door…
-Right. Me and him here… Ready to die… I fought.
As Dylan and Raymond testified, the statement that there was an unidentified gate in the underground waterway, and corpses poured out from it, was also unproven.
When the Guardians went to check, everything had already disappeared and there was nothing.
In the end, all of this came to be seen as something ‘someone’ intervened, but no one could notice the truth.
.
.
.
And the Archery Department, Student Council Office.
A promising human archer, Violet Decrescent, with long purple hair hanging down, was struggling.
First, the atmosphere of the academy is chaotic.
In a situation like this, we need to recruit aspiring warriors from the archer division.
In fact, she had no intention of choosing anyone, particularly.
First of all, the reason why each aspiring warrior also selects a rider is simple.
it’s insurance
Insurance in case the front rider fails the expedition to defeat the Demon King.
In other words, Violet, who thinks she has the skills to defeat the Demon Lord, doesn’t need that kind of insurance.
However…
– Violet, I’m here to tell you something urgently. Are you very busy right now?
-…
Her teacher, Diena Ashkar, came to Violet herself.
In a way, it was a simple request.
A request such as whether he can bring in a cadet named Rev Denek as a candidate for the aspiring warrior of the archery club.
But the words ‘ah’ and ‘uh’ are different,
It wasn’t a request to be accepted as an aspiring candidate, it was a request to bring him along.
“after.”
I have no intention of getting a nomination.
Do you have to go to the first-year students and convince them?
Of course, Violet is proud that there is no better shooter than herself, so no matter how much her teacher asked her, she was reluctant.
“Rev, Denek… ”
In this lint forest demon haunting incident, the shooter who endured time while the war hero came.
I heard that he helped catch the rags brought by the Great Devil, but there was nothing special about it other than that.
However, he is in the same position as Professor Diena’s chief disciple.
read from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Violet lightly stroked her fiery forehead with her fingers.How the hell did school go while you were out?
Finally, she frowned and stood up from her seat.
‘… ‘
Lev Denek, let’s take a look at his face.
* * *
Sanctuary, Sanctuary of Clarisse.
It is clearly an unmanaged garden, but the plants in the greenery are in harmony as if they were well manicured.
And in the center of this place, there was a small building in the form of a temple with only pillars and a hole in the wall.
“… this… Is that right?”
Arya, who also excelled in Clarisse, can rent this place for practice.
And borrowing the power of Sinatis, he… It was the right answer to bring me here.
There is no place like Sanctuary to suppress the power of demons.
It was because he had to pour holy water on his body, which had been completely eroded.
It was quite difficult for a woman’s body to peel off him, who was taller than expected, and wash it off with holy water.
However, whenever he went to the Restoration Coffin or tried to call someone else, Rev unconsciously grabbed Arya’s arm as if he couldn’t do it, so this was the best.
-… …
He sleeps with a bad expression as if he was having a nightmare.
I’ve also reported it to the academics, so if you go to the Restoration Coffin when you’re conscious, you’ll be able to avoid doubts about your whereabouts.
Anyway, in this way, Arya saved Rev’s life once more.
Of course, I don’t know if this is the right decision.
Professor Sinatis also silently helped him, but didn’t say anything to Arya.
However, Arya could be convinced by this incident.
Anymore… There was no need to doubt him.
Rev Denek… You can use the power of demons.
And the only time he changes his personality is when he uses the power of the demons and then takes over in reverse.
That the reason for the encroachment is not from other demons, but because of his own abilities.
‘But why… Yeriel… ‘
The first words that came out of his mouth while the mine painting was in full swing.
– Yeriel.
Why?
It is quite different from the context of other humans’ demonizations that I have seen in demon-related books.
Usually, the general magic painting is to make a contract with the devil in hopes of power, and to accept black magic,
It is common for them to be engrossed in this surge of power and display destructive words and deeds.
However, calling out human women’s names or playing pranks on them is obviously awkward.
“… It’s not that I just want to be strong.”
He said that he might not be accepting the power of a demon for his own self-interest.
As Arya felt, if you look at his actions these days…
‘It’s been a long time with Yeriel… ‘
The reason the word ‘Jeriel’ came out… If it has anything to do with this…
“…?”
When she finished thinking like that, Arya’s heart sank.
It wasn’t the first time I felt it.
If you add extreme despair to this, it’s like losing your family to Andras.
In a word, it felt as if something was lost, and my heart became stuffy for no reason.
Once, Arya poured out her mind.
What I need to do now is treat the wounded.
“me… ”
“?”
At that time, Rev began to spit out the sleep talk mixed with the flurry, one letter at a time.
And the result of Arya’s retrieval of it and reciting it again.
– I, stone, ah, go, do, give.
A simple sentence is complete.
“… What does it mean?”
back, where are you?
I was a little surprised.
Perhaps it was the first time he heard his sincerity.
Because he didn’t have any signs of weakness.
At that moment, a line of conclusions unfolded in Arya’s mind.
A man named Rev Denek,
to return. And for Yeriel…
He accepted the power of the Magician in an instant. can it be interpreted?
“… ”
From the beginning of the school year, from the time I cast a surveillance spell on him.
He occasionally showed waves of great magic.
And, every time a big incident like this happened at the academy, his encroachment got worse.
to save someone… I must have struggled in pain
It is different from normal magicians.
However, whatever the intention was.
either private or public interest.
Accepting the power of demons is a taboo that is absolutely unacceptable in Claris Academy, or even in the Empire.
So, if it weren’t for Arya in fact, Lev Denek was already…
-… eww.
At that moment, Lev’s mouth opened once more.
“!”
Arya put her ear to Rev so as not to miss it.
* * *
‘Rev… !’
After recovering in the Restoration Coffin,
Seeing Edwin’s dramatic recovery, Yeriel ran straight to Claris’ Sanctuary, despite the opposition of the Academy’s investigators.
What happened to her yesterday was a miracle.
– Dylan? What is it?
-Nonsense. disappeared
– What, what?
-The Curse of the Great Evil…
Because the curse of the Great Evil, the cause of Jeriel’s deterioration, was released before the Lord Haeju came.
However, she could not keep her promise with Rev, as she had to be under the protection and supervision of a war hero until stabilization.
-Rev, that’s fine… ?
Seeing that the curse is gone, he must have done something else.
But Rev’s condition was a mess.
Even moving would have been difficult…
Why doesn’t he take care of himself?
In the end, last night, Yeriel couldn’t sleep and had no choice but to spend time worrying.
– Promise, don’t forget.
I just hoped and hoped that the promise could be kept.
After dawn and hearing that Rev was recovering from Sanctuary, Yeriel could not rest.
I can only be relieved by seeing his condition with my own two eyes right now.
.
.
.
So in the sanctuary…
“Rev… !”
As if an angel had descended, Yeriel, who ran with her pure white hair, was faced with,
“!”
Rev, it looked like Arya’s new model was stacked on top of it.
Ohhhh, damn
