296 – Time Race (1)
The collapse of the Academy is an inevitable occurrence and event. As we just saw, weren’t the flying monsters crashing into the monument?
Even if Rod, Rize, and other powerful people try to stop it, this incident is inevitable.
Even if you have powerful anti-aircraft magic, how can you stop the countless bombardments?
Even if you want to stop it, you can never stop it, and even if you do, it is a loss. These guys are planned and controlled by demons.
Just now, the number was more than 10, but if you forcefully stop them, dozens of them will come.
“Then from now on…”
“··· ···”
But there was something more important than that. I looked at the back of the head of the host dressed as a clown.
It’s not that bad to be told to calm down with voice amplification magic. The confused audience was quickly calmed down.
Next is the problem. The atmosphere has changed 180 degrees from before. At the same time, my wild instincts cried out.
[Kill each other…]
Hurry and subdue that person before he says anything. I immediately swung Ragnarok.
-Tooong!
“Quek!”
Instead of an ax blade, he struck the host in the back of the head with cotton. The host fell forward from the shock.
Since you got a good hit, it’s natural for you to faint. I looked down at the host who was lying on the floor like a frog.
‘Also. He’s possessed by the devil.’
The host is not the devil. He was really just an ordinary host.
Although he painted his face white and even dressed up as a clown, he was nothing more than a victim being controlled by the devil.
What he was just about to say was close to a trigger. The starting point for a frenzy.
If this host was really a devil, Rize would have noticed and dealt with it first.
No matter how well the devil hides, it is meaningless in front of a saint.
“What, what? I just felt strange…”
“Did you feel it too? What was it?”
“But why is that person the host…”
Everyone was confused. That’s right, I hung up right before the trigger was activated.
An inexplicable feeling of death must have been rising in my chest and then finally coming down. This is a fortunate part.
But it’s not all over yet. Here, people including Rize quickly stepped forward.
“Everyone, take shelter!” Go to the main building’s training center, stock exchange, or museum! Come on!”
“There is a lot of space and there are few entrances, so you can prepare for monsters!”
Voices pounding into the ears of the confused audience. It was Rize and Erika who shouted, not anyone else.
As you may have guessed, those places are where the devil’s magic circle was originally drawn. Places that could originally serve as shelters.
The demons knew this well and set up a magic circle. Even if the first plan fails, you can move on to the next step.
-Cheezy!
[Issuing a disaster alert. Issue a disaster alert. Those currently at the academy should quickly evacuate to a simple shelter…]
Coincidentally, the evacuation announcement went viral at the right time. With the disaster warning following Rize, people began to become urgent.
In order to create a frenzy, you have to listen to it ‘in person’ rather than broadcast it. So the broadcast itself is safe.
[Keeek!]
Just as we were about to evacuate, the remaining flying monster descended. It is an entity that looks like a pterosaur.
The eyes are looking for prey, as if they have been released from the devils’ control. But I wasn’t particularly worried.
-Clap!
With the sound of something being cut, the pterosaur’s head separated from its body. It is a neat and clean cut.
Since it was just before descending, no accident occurred where people fell on their heads.
As soon as I saw that, I turned my head and looked at Rod.
“Whoa.”
Rod was looking up at the sky, holding a sword in one hand. Because it was a cold winter, my breath came out long just by sighing.
He looks like a hunter with a shotgun, but he is one of the strongest along with Rize.
‘Rize will have to lead the refugees right now…’
As of now, the only person who can stand against the devils of sodomy and above is Rod. Rise plans to evacuate people.
In Soul World, monster attacks will continue for about an hour. Rize’s absence is unavoidable, even if it’s because of the flying monsters.
The people who will fight against the demons are Rod, me, Kara, and Erica. The rest will help refugees.
‘There will be professors like Marlboro among the refugees, so it will be okay.’
There are many people who could immediately become a force if the chaos were resolved. In the original, it was impossible because of the madness.
I looked at the refugees who were slowly starting to move and lifted the host up on his back. Although I was controlled by the devil, I am a civilian.
“Oh my! You bastard! Why did you hit the kid!”
“?”
At that time, I heard a roar in my ears. It’s a somewhat familiar voice.
When I turned my head, the fortune teller, or Warden, was running toward me, brandishing his staff.
I guess they misunderstood because I just hit the host hard on the back of the head. Of course, it was enough to be misunderstood.
“There is such a thing. Grandfather, run away too.”
“Yekki! Why am I running away? Me too, huh? I can fight! Those monsters… Eup-eup!”
“Go to sleep. Calm down. Let’s go quickly.”
Fortunately, Warden, who was causing a ruckus and not a riot, was dragged away by someone.
Like the host, he was dressed as a clown, and he seemed to be a member of the circus.
As a result, we were able to move to the shelter without anyone being left behind. Placing defense personnel at each shelter is a bonus.
“Professor Marlboro. Please stay here. Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. Anyway, I never thought something like this would happen…”
From noble mtl dot com
Marlboro also survived without suffering any tragedy. I watched him from afar, confused.
Originally, he was consumed by madness and killed his beloved family with his own hands. After that, he returns home and disappears from the academy forever.
Fortunately, I don’t think that will happen this time. I will continue to serve as a professor and be a great help to students.
[Kyaak!]
[Cooooo!!]
Now, not only flying monsters but also ground monsters have begun to invade the academy.
Usually monsters have a strong tendency to kill each other if they are not of the same species, but now they are charging with their eyes wide open.
Most likely, it means that they are listening to the orders of demons. In fact, the volume offensive is the most troublesome.
“Mo, it’s a monster! Monsters are coming!”
“Get out of the way quickly! I have to get in too!”
The first shelter, the stock exchange. Because so many people have already gathered, it is close to saturation.
And the monsters are approaching every moment. I don’t know where it’s coming from, but it’s a huge number.
[Chwiik! Chwiik!]
[Keek! Cheer up! Wow!]
[Wow!!]
Low-level monsters such as goblins, orcs, and gnolls were basic, and high-level monsters such as ogres were also charging.
I think it will be difficult to run away anymore. Just as I was about to step forward.
“Excuse me for a moment.”
Rod put his hand on my shoulder and walked forward. A sword was held in his hand.
To the weapons made Compared from Ragnarok and Usk blades, it is an ordinary sword. But there is a saying:
Craftsmen do not choose tools. The Lord looked at the army of monsters coming and took a stance.
After slightly bending your upper body, place the sword on your left waist. Then, without any hesitation, he swung the sword horizontally.
-Seeing!
Just one horizontal slash. On the outside, it felt like a superficial attack.
But let’s not forget that he is a ‘Sword Saint’. As soon as he cut horizontally, I looked at the monsters coming from the front.
-Too-duk-duk. Fighting. Hood.
Smaller individuals such as goblins had their heads cut off, and orcs and gnolls had their waists cut cleanly.
The sight of the monsters’ bodies being cut cleanly like sausages was truly alien.
[Kaa! Whoa!]
A large ogre-like object was cut off near the thigh and rolled around on the floor. I’ll probably die soon from excessive bleeding.
The large group was subdued with just one attack. I felt it just now, but his dignity as a swordsman really stood out.
I couldn’t help but be amazed as I witnessed the scene in real time. When I was struggling with addiction, I couldn’t even show this.
However, now we are in a situation where we are doing everything possible. Things like monsters would be closer to warm-up exercises for Rod.
“Hmm. I don’t like it. “I guess you can’t lie about your age.”
“··· ···”
Old monsters always say things like that. Like, because of age, the body can’t move as it wants.
Rise will probably show a skill comparable to that. Honestly, I think just two people would be enough.
‘At this level, I’m no different from a real potato?’
Of course, it’s only a joke, and it will be difficult for Rod alone to fight the devil.
Not only the ‘clown’ but also the ‘hunter’ must have participated in this mess. As long as it doesn’t cause trouble to Rod.
“Now that we have time, let’s hurry and move to the next shelter. Who is in charge of this place?”
“I will take charge.”
“Please, student Kara.”
There are still many people who need to evacuate. In fact, leading this many people is difficult in itself.
In other words, there is a high possibility that there will be some losers in the middle. I opened my eyes and ears to catch the stragglers.
-Someone…Someone please…
We were just about to move. A delicate woman’s voice pierced my ears.
A request for rescue that is not only pathetic but full of despair. As soon as I heard that sound, she jerked her head! Turned.
-Doo doo doo doo!
Monsters are still coming like a tidal wave. And the place where the woman’s voice was heard was in the direction where the monster was.
Without hesitation, I ran in the direction where I heard the voice. People shouted at me from behind, but I ignored them.
Shouldn’t we make sure that no one is an unfair victim? At least that’s what I learned.
Hehe… Please… Anyone…”
Fortunately, the straggler was not far away. It is a place slightly away from the stage.
It seemed like he was someone who had not been watching the stage. I hurriedly approached the woman.
She is a woman with black hair and wearing a black dress. It is clear that she is an outsider.
“Are you okay?”
“Ah, ah! Yes, yes!”
I figured out her woman’s condition. Looking at her legs shaking, it seems like she has lost her strength.
A completely unexpected disaster occurred, so it is entirely deserved.
“Really…Really…”
The woman extended her hand to me. She has hands like jade and skin like white jade.
I grabbed his her hand her without hesitation. But when I looked closely, I felt something strange.
Rather than looking like white jade, it’s closer to pure white. There seemed to be almost no color.
[Really…]
At that moment, the woman’s voice changed. Her voice was full of despair, a voice that seemed to gently tickle her ears.
The sexy voice of ‘Damma’, born to deceive people. I started and faced the woman’s face
[You grew up as a good child? I’m happy.]
Navy blue eyes. And navy blue lips. Beauty and atmosphere enough to steal a man’s heart.
Only two parts have vivid colors, while the rest is filled with black and white.
When I was dazed by the beautiful smile that seemed to immerse me, Mongma extended her hand towards me.
Finally, her hand was about to gently cup my cheek.
– Suddenly!
Her hands were cut off cleanly with the sound of something being cut.
At the same time, the dream demon that had fascinated me retreated behind her. The black dress fluttered as if dancing.
“Are you okay? I came right away just in case.”
“··· ···”
Instead of answering, I shook my head vigorously. I don’t know if I’m embarrassed or really fascinated.
Anyway, one thing is certain. That the woman who asked me for rescue was not human.
“It’s a shame. I could have succeeded.”
Except for her eyes and lips, she said it was a pity that she was a woman entirely in black and white. Her cut off hand She was suddenly regenerated.
A sharp nose and dark blue lips that especially attract attention. The curved body was characteristic of her, but the parts that symbolized beauty were especially highlighted.
So, chest and hips. Even the dress is explicit, exposing half of the breasts and wide hips.
She crosses her arms her, emphasizing her voluptuous breasts her, and puts her index finger to her lips her, making her lustful.
A being that seems to have been born to bewitch men. A beauty that reminds us of what a woman is.
“Honey. Why don’t you go with this sister?”
Also, reinforcements sent when the demons discovered the plan.
“I can show you something nice.”
Another indigo-colored demon, ‘Rust’, licked his lips with his tongue and tempted him.
The plan went awry.
*****
“The plan went awry.”
The dark blue devil and clown who was watching from afar muttered softly.
Normally, it would be normal for Rod to be struggling with his addiction, and Lise should be in the Vatican.
However, the road is not only vivid but overflowing with power, and even Rize is at a very disadvantage here.
Above all, the situation was such that they could not even enter the frenzy due to how they were aware of this plan.
Nothing went smoothly, but the clown didn’t seem to care much.
“What would you do?”
Next to the clown, the hunter asked quietly. If it were possible, he had the will to invade right away.
The clown looked at the situation carefully and then turned his head. Not just refuge, but toward Sivar.
“Let’s try to recapture it first. You help Rust. “I will bring more monsters from the forest.”
“Yes, I understand.”
With those words, the hunter disappeared into the darkness. It is to help Rust according to the clown’s orders.
Next, the clown looked in the direction where Rize was, not at Sivar. She is helping refugees evacuate without fail.
‘How on earth did you know?’
Can not understand. We gathered as much as we could just in case, but it still didn’t change the fact that the plan went awry.
All the magic circles that had been created with great care were gone. That’s why it seems difficult to enter a frenzy.
The clown narrowed his eyes and looked at the group of refugees, then shrugged his shoulders.
‘What. It doesn’t matter. There is He too.’
Anyway, there is only one ultimate goal. He took a step and headed towards the forest.
‘We will recapture our child until the saint comes.’
Although each goal is different, the race against time has begun.
