Chapter 31 Rumors (6)
Me and Elodie flew into the sky and landed on the roof of the building.
When I looked down from above, I could see the students being manipulated and the students not being manipulated at a glance. It was clear that the students who were in good condition were perplexed.
… … However, there are still many students who are being manipulated. They checked where I was and started entering this building. That said, I can’t stay here for a long time either.
“Frondie, have you finally turned all the students into enemies?”
“Finally.”
Looks like I planned it.
“It’s a joke.”
Saying so, Elodie looked down at the students below the building.
“… … They are familiar faces.”
“You remember.”
At my words, Elodie nodded.
Because Elodie was with them during the Hut Incident. He knows Serp’s abilities.
Elodie asked.
“Is Serp Daniel alive?”
“… … I don’t know.”
It is definitely Serp’s ability to control the students right now. I just heard his voice on the air.
But it’s not clear. I haven’t seen Serp’s face yet, and I don’t think he’s still alive.
… … Maybe you just don’t want to believe it. The divine bow ‘Chryselakatos’ never misses.
“I’ve been against him before, but it’s quite a headache. There is no point in fainting.”
Elodie muttered. In fact, people controlled by Serp cannot be stunned. In other words, he’s already fainted. Perhaps the parties feel like they are waving around in a dream.
A strange thought suddenly occurred to me, and I asked.
“Look, you are fine. If you were the enemy, you would have been really cool.”
Of course, there were a few sane students besides Elodie. Was Elodie just so lucky to dodge?
“… … .”
But Elodie was suddenly silent. Its mouth opened and closed again and again. It seems that my ears are red for some reason.
Elodie then spit hard.
“… … I, he, am the party to the rumor.”
“yes?”
“The person who spreads rumors about you is also handing out Serp’s business card. The name ‘Indus’ is highly reliable. You probably gave someone a bunch of business cards.”
“… … oh Then the kid who got the business card gives it back to his friends or acquaintances. To increase the persuasiveness of the rumors he heard. Is the number of people receiving business cards increasing exponentially in that way?”
Elodie nodded.
“So the parties to the rumors will never receive business cards. A student who wants to spread rumors and a student who wants to know the truth are two different things.”
Interesting rumors are fun entertainment for students on their own. So I want to spread it.
From the standpoint of such people, the truth of the rumors is better revealed later. When it turns out, the fun time is over.
Therefore, the business card can hide the truth of the rumor, that is, the parties do not accept it.
… … but
“Oh, then you know. What rumors are circulating now? Man, how embarrassing I was with that a while ago, that you and I are dating,”
Hwareuk-
As I spoke, a fire blazed in front of me. Two steps away, an eerie heat touched my skin.
Elodie’s eyes lit up.
“It’s bullshit, so it’ll end today.”
“… … right.”
why are you angry You and I are of the same mind.
But Elodie mumbled something with her sunken eyes.
“Well, other than that, it’s okay to spread other stories. Because it is true.”
“… … yes?”
That was then. I heard footsteps running from the entrance to the roof.
I gathered my brows.
“Are the controlled kids already here?”
“maybe.”
Elodie nodded.
“Frondier, do you know where Serp is?”
“… … yes.”
“Then find him. Students, I will do anything.”
I nodded.
The immediate destination is the broadcasting room. Because Serp spread the broadcast there.
It seems that Serf and Gregory want to kill me.
Look at how long you’ve worked so far. If that’s the case, then I wouldn’t run away after making the situation to this level. you’ll have to kill me
… … By the way, how do you get to the broadcasting room from this rooftop? I can’t go through the roof door because the students are coming.
“Don’t worry about this, let’s go. The broadcasting room building is just a matter of landing on the ground and running west.”
Elodie said to me as he raised his mana.
… … Well, to land, you mean to fall from here?
I stood at the edge of the building and looked down. Was this, um, a five-story building?
It’s good that my rating has risen in Elodie, but I want you to know that my abilities are subject to conditions. I don’t know, though.
‘Yes, this time Mjolnir,’
That was when I thought.
Far away in sight, on the ground, someone was spreading magic.
A pure white silhouette that cannot be misunderstood even in this town.
It was Aten.
Binggye Magic 1 set
range augmentation, continuous
emergency evacuation
A long slide was built from the roof to the point where Aten was located. Of course it was ice.
“What, you were waiting for Aten. I said why are you still? I don’t know how far you know.”
Elodie gave me a pincup.
… … Well, let’s just move on.
I stood on the slide. It was ice cold, but it was worth it.
“Then let’s go, Elodie! Be careful!”
“Come on! And watch out for the teachers! The fact that the teachers have not responded so far means that there is a high probability that someone is being manipulated there too!”
That was correct. I nodded and climbed onto the slide. I pushed it with my arms and leaned on the incline.
“Wow!”
“Can’t we just go quietly?!”
* * *
The large number of students pouring into the entrance of the building and going up and down was a sight to behold.
The still sane students were frightened by the sight and backed away. Just by looking at them, their expressions were not normal.
Among the procession was Robald, which made the other students even more shunned.
“Uh, Robald, where are you going?”
But there were people who didn’t care at all.
Aster was a little startled by the huge number of students, but he tried to ask Robald what was going on.
Of course, Robald, who had lost consciousness, just walked without a word.
Aster ignored his words and looked at Robald passing by.
Then, Robard heard a small mumble.
“Frondie… … , kill… … .”
“Oh, wait. Wait a minute.”
Aster immediately followed Robald’s side. Still, it was a very unsettling speech and voice.
“You mean to kill Frontier?”
“… … kill… … .”
“──Ho-hoo.”
I’m not crazy.
Aster, who made a quick decision, blocked the front of Robald with the sword in the scabbard.
“I can’t go any further, Robald.”
“… … .”
Robald’s unfocused eyes turned to Aster. Looking into those eyes, I am convinced. Robald was struck by something now. Probably all of these hundreds of students now.
“If you let all the other kids go, Frontier will do something about it, but you can’t. You’re a dangerous guy even if you’re not sane. Even if you are sane, your head hurts.”
“… … Hindrance… … .”
Robald’s expression distorted. The veins spurted out in the temples, and the muscles that started from the neck became clear. Soon, his body grew a little.
Just by giving the strength of the whole body, the expansion of the whole body was visible.
“… … I don’t think we’ll ever fight like this.”
It was Robald who always made a fuss about fighting first, but when we really fight, I am the one who argues. Aster felt something ironic.
Aster’s scabbard had a blue aura. Its vivid color was so great that even people who weren’t very good at feeling could see it.
It was an ‘Auror’ that was freely expressed during this vacation.
I decided not to use my divine power. Aster’s purpose is to subdue Robald, not to hurt him.
Will he be able to subdue a guy as tall as Robald without any major injuries? no matter how insane
But Aster smiled fearlessly.
“I haven’t had a chance to see if I’m strong enough.”
Robald took a fighting stance. Even though he lost consciousness, it was an action that his body remembered. Aster also pulled the sword back and lowered himself. The sword was not released.
“It’s a good opportunity.”
Immediately after, the two rushed towards each other as if cutting the air.
* * *
I ran towards the broadcasting room with Aten.
“Menosorphos.”
I activated the magic circle and pushed the attacking students with my shield.
There were still many students who were aiming for me, but with the help of Aten, I somehow managed to cope.
Aten, who specializes in ice magic, was a great help in stopping the students without hurting them.
“I’m glad you didn’t take business cards either!”
“Because I am one of the protagonists of the rumor.”
Aten answered while running with me. His still innocent face was rather reassuring in this situation.
“By the way, Mr. Frontier.”
“yes?”
“Does Mr. Frontier want me to be a slave?”
I looked at Aten at an absurd sound. I thought it was a joke, but Aten still had that face.
At times like this, this innocent face is so scary.
“… … Uh, are you kidding me?”
“Is it possible? Most of the rumors about me were like that. I was told that I had a weakness or that I was threatened.”
yes i know
I just had a fight with Robald over that.
“So I thought. Perhaps Mr. Frontier was hoping for something like that in his heart. Do you have such a word? No, there is no smoke from the chimney.”
“First of all, am I not a chimney? I don’t want that.”
Making the Imperial Princess a Slave? Even in the delusion, it is possible to question the probability.
“But there are good reasons.”
“What does that mean.”
“There are more and more students questioning me following Mr. Frontier. But if I’m being threatened, the students’ questions will be answered.”
“Are you answering the students’ questions and really making you a slave?”
this is it If someone hates me for no reason, give me a reason.
Add a setting that Aten is threatening to give you a good reason to follow me?
“It’s nonsense. It’s unacceptable to treat you like that.”
“… … I don’t really have any complaints.”
“shut up!”
weird. Aten wouldn’t have a bad brain. I keep getting out of focus in strange places.
And the solution to that situation is much simpler, isn’t it?
“It’s okay if you just don’t follow me in the first place!”
“It’s dismissed.”
this child.
“Then your opinion is rejected! what a slave! I’m not even kidding!”
“It was no joke. A sincerity of ten percent enters,”
“You’re calling that a joke!”
“… … !”
Aten looked at me and opened her eyes wide.
“Is that so?”
… … oh
I miss Serp soon. I want to hit him and kill him.
It wasn’t the emotion that was just triggered, it was from the beginning.
… … I’ll tear you apart and kill you.
She didn’t mind tho 👀
