21. The girl and the demon (3)
The man sat down on a tree and let out a muffled yawn. He climbed a tree and was taking a nap, but after discovering a big change, he was about to fall asleep because he fell into a situation where he couldn’t do anything. However, he does not lament his situation. It all happened because the wind guided it.
“Welcome, Lin. Sorry for calling District 6.”
“No. Denas-senpai, I also wanted to take a walk.”
This is what this man is missing. He was about to wake up from a nap on the tree and was about to go home, but he couldn’t believe that two female students were having a good conversation under the tree where he was sleeping.
When a man comes down from a tree, he will have to pass between those girls. If such a situation came up, how would the female students look at themselves?
“Senior, thank you. That… The assailant who stole the treasure couldn’t be caught in the end, but he wouldn’t have been able to infiltrate the venue if the seniors hadn’t helped.”
“No Rin, I am also a student at Arisha Academy. I just did the right thing however… Is what you just said true?”
“Yes. Not only me, but my twin brother, Ren, has that power too.”
“Was Ren your younger brother? Earlier, Ren said that she is her younger sister than you?”
At Denas’s words, Rin laughed as if it were absurd.
“Ren is really… I’ll have to educate you later. Anyway, I think I can help.”
“So, can I ask you right away?”
“Of course. In fact, it is thanks to that ability that I can detect signs that treasure is being stolen.”
Lin said that and smiled brightly. A man sitting on top of a tree listening to their conversation. Wandering swordsman ‘Rayplane Aginis’ takes out a tree root from his bosom and starts chewing on it. Then, Layplane instinctively grabbed the handle of the sword wrapped around her waist.
Pajik!ㅡ
With the sound of sparks, he confirmed that an orange curtain had been drawn near the tree he was resting on. The barrier has been drawn. And she is the masked woman who was kicked out today for stealing her jewelry at the title ceremony, and she is seen walking to the tree where she is resting.
To be precise, it is to go to Rin and Denas Yeseul under the tree.
It was an enemy approaching with hostility. But Ray Plain put his hand on his sword. I don’t know who the masked woman is, and I don’t know what she might do to Rin and Denas. Even if he did something dangerous, what did it have to do with himself? At that thought, Ray Plain cut his own arm and closed his eyes.
“You, you… uh, how… “
I hear Lin’s panicked voice. It’s a natural reaction. That masked woman was a person who tried to commit a major crime just a few hours ago and failed, and it was Rin who caused that failure.
Increase security at the academy level, and some students and professors to find that woman. And isn’t the investigation team made up of the Elana Education District’s guards moving to search for that woman?
In a situation like this, no matter how much barriers were put in, Layplane couldn’t help but be taken aback when he saw the masked woman casually stepping into the student’s territory. Though he thinks so, he doesn’t step out. This is because his theory is that there is no need to change one’s destiny unless the wind permits it.
“Lin!”
Fajik!ㅡ
A strong flash occurred as magic collided with magic. It was such a destructive power that I was blinded for a moment even with my eyes closed. He said that
“Wow!”
A person presumed to be Rin bumps into a tree, causing the tree to shake. Even in that situation, Ray Plain was just chewing on the root with his eyes closed.
“Denas Yeseul. You should come with me.”
“You dare… lee… Rin!”
“Senior no way!”
“Run Lynn! Run away!”
The two women’s screams of pain are heard later. I don’t know exactly what happened because I have my eyes closed, but judging from the dull noise, it seems that the masked woman has summoned another monster.
Even so, Rayplane didn’t move.
“Seo, senior… That woman is aiming for the senior… Therefore… “
“Lin… I buy time-“
“Run away! You must never get caught!”
“I can’t do that!”
“Go quickly!”
A student named Rin seems to be sacrificing herself to protect Denas. Come to think of it, even in today’s treasure heist, Rin threw herself in to protect her other comrades.
Pajik!ㅡ
“Ugh!”
“Lin!!”
“Senior runs away… no! No!!”
“Heo Eok… “
I heard the sound of Denas being hit by something and falling to the floor. Ray Plain opens one eye and examines the situation. As long as Denas Yeseul is defeated, she has no chance against Rin. But she, Rin, did not run away. Instead of running away, she is lying on the ground and is standing with Nasu wrapped around her. When Denas fell, she thought that Rin would run away and Ray Plane would.
Isn’t that the most humane choice to let the opponent go? Their skills are also inferior to those of their opponents, but if they lose even the number of heads, they have no chance of winning.
Even so, Rin was not at all discouraged. She is an unknown opponent. And even when a huge monster twice her size approaches to end her life, she doesn’t flinch at all.
Could her sacrificial side ignite Ray Plain’s heart? He holds his scabbard, raises his fingers and pulls his sword out slightly.
“A new wind is blowing.”
She said that and grabbed the handle of her sword.
*
The masked woman, Heylia, used the items prepared by her evil spirit in turn to pressure Rin and Denas. Learned from the evil spirit is activated by consuming an item with magic. The rarer the item given by the evil spirit, the more the magical power increases vertically.
Did the evil spirit take the failure at the title conferment ceremony seriously? The quality of the items prepared this time was different. From the point of view of having faced a woman named Rin a few times, she is by no means a weak wizard. She is the senior of the third grade, Nas Yeseul, who was behind her, so she must have the skills to defend her body to some extent.
Nevertheless, the ancient magic used as a newly prepared item defeated Rin and Denas very easily.
“Heo Eok, Heo Eok… Senior, don’t worry, it’s okay. I-I’ll try to do something.”
“Lin… “
Denas Yeseul is already wrong. Using the items prepared by the evil spirit, she used magic to disentangle her inner world. According to the evil spirit, Denas Yeseul’s mind was already a mess. Perhaps her evil spirit is trying to generate power based on her mind. In any case, as long as he is branded by an evil spirit, whether he likes it or not, Denas will not live long.
Lean can also be easily removed. [Troll Lash] Summoned with the item prepared by the evil spirit will finish off Rin and enjoy her meat party. So, she didn’t have to go out.
“You were a thorn in the eye, but it worked out. Don’t even think about dying in peace.”
“Ugh… “
Rin gritted his teeth. I see tears welling up in her eyes. She laughed at the sight, but then she got goosebumps. Tears welled up in Rin’s eyes not because she was afraid. She can’t help but think, isn’t she staring at me like she’s going to eat me right now?
Those tears are not fear. These are the tears that come out of resentment.
“… Kill him.”
ㅡ『Grureur』
The troll Lash lifted a club the size of Rin’s torso. At that moment, something shiny reflected the light and I closed my eyes for a moment.
Kung!
ㅡ『Grureur』
“Ah… what?”
I saw that the club that was rushing towards Rin had been broken in two and was pinned to the ground. Troll Lash takes a step back in embarrassment. In front of the troll was a male student squatting with his sword drawn and her knees bent. I know who this man is. He’s the guy I saw at the title ceremony.
Melgard Class 1st year. Layplane Aginis.
As I was flirting with him with a nervous expression, the evil spirit spoke to me.
—-『Be careful, he’s not serious.』
“I can tell by pretending.”
The most sensible action to take to defeat him would be to engage in a pincer attack with Troll Lash. Although the opponent is the one with the title, the chief too. There is not even a second seat. If that were the case, he wouldn’t have the skills to repel a pincer attack with Troll Lash.
With that thought in mind, I took out a jewel engraved with the mark of fire and stretched it out toward him. At that time, Layplane spat out the tree root he was holding and opened his mouth.
“Rin, the wind you blew was quite pleasant.”
“Les, Rayplane?”
“If you want to protect your seniors, protect them.”
He was spouting such nonsense at Rin. He had no intention of missing this gap. At that thought, she exclaimed as she infused magic into the jewel and destroyed it.
“Kill him!”
ㅡ 『Grrr!』
At my cry, Troll Lash kicks off the ground and lunges at Layplane. At the same time, a wave of magic power was generated from the jewel I destroyed, and a huge pillar of fire was created. The pillar of fire soared upwards and then fell, hitting Layplane.
Fire up!
A pillar of fire of tremendous firepower hit Rayplane. At the same time, Troll Lash slams his fists into the pillar of fire. This would have turned him into a well-cooked piece of meat.

“Anyway, it seems that my skills are not enough compared to the form I took.”
“Rayplane!!! No!”
I enjoyed this situation while listening to Rin’s screams. Now, if you deal with Rin and take Denas, it will be over. It was. But the troll, who had been punching the inside of the pillar of fire, suddenly steps back and brings him to his knees.
“Huh?”
Cheese!
ㅡ 『Gruruuu!』
Then, the troll’s arm is suddenly amputated, and he spurts out his blood with a terrifying roar.
“What, what! What is it, kuk!”
Suddenly, a pillar of fire was cut from top to bottom, and a rayplane protruding from it swung a sword. His attack slashed him in the chest. Cut with a knife At that thought, my heart started to beat, and I felt as if all the energy that was supposed to support me was drained through the wound.
“Ugh.”
Unknowingly, I knelt down in front of him. At the same time, the pillar of fire I created disappears.
“Your skills were poor compared to the form you had?”
“…… “
“When it comes to deciding the outcome, skill is not important.”
“Ugh, mu, what are you talking about… “
“The wind seems to be blowing towards your downfall.”
After he said that, he raised his sword. I couldn’t help but watch it. Something is wrong. How can this guy Didn’t this kind of guy get into the second seat, let alone the top one? He looked down on his opponent too much, judging that a normal student just won the title by accident.
In the first place, wasn’t A magic optimized for restraining the opponent? I should have put him in a pillar of fire and poured extra magic on him, but why didn’t I? No. I fully understand why I didn’t do that.
I looked down on him. I was careless. It was only to create a gap for such a strong person. Even if he did his best, he was foolish in front of a strong man who could not guarantee victory.
Die. With a moment’s carelessness. Lose one’s life Can not be done. I have a goal. You must never die until you achieve it.
—-『All the lower jobs have been completed. Slowly retreat.”
The voice of an evil spirit suddenly heard. I didn’t have the energy to answer, and I didn’t want to. How the hell are you supposed to retreat in a situation like this? That was when I was thinking about it.
“Senior Denas? Whew, what! Senior! Behind the rayplane!”
Denas Yeseul, who had been struck by the item given to him by the evil spirit, suddenly stood up from his seat, then fired a black magic blade at Rayplane. With one hand on the scabbard, Layplane moved only his right arm holding the sword to cut off all of Denas’ blades.
“… This?”
—-『Finally, if you use it, it’s over. Heylia.”
I barely got up from my seat at the command of the evil spirit and destroyed the jewel the evil spirit had prepared for me. At the same time, black smoke rose and flew towards Layplane, Rin, and Denas Yeseul.
“Mmm, on top of my head… thread… No! I didn’t do it!”
So says Denas, who stretches out his arm to attack Ray Plane. Ray Plain, who was looking at her without saying anything, broke her head left and right, grabbed her sword, and ran to Denas.
ㅡ『Now, retreat.』
“Keuk, but, mo, the body… Ugh, aaagh!”
It is painful. Blood was leaking from the wound, and I felt great pain as my bones creaked. Even so, the body moves automatically and begins to retreat. It seems that the evil spirit is moving my body at will. As I breathed in pain beyond my limit, I felt the world go dark.
