How to Survive at the Academy chapter 159

Crepin Subjugation (10)

A dagger lodged in Crepin’s left arm made a clattering sound and cut through his flesh.

The tip of the dagger that had pierced his wrist stopped at the edge of his eye and trembled.

I clenched my teeth and tried to push the dagger with the weight of my body, but Crepin managed to hold on and swung its tentacles.

– Whoops!

I took a defensive position for a moment, but I was pushed away by the shock and rolled over the stone floor as it was.

Crepin with a dagger in one hand clapped and stood up.

As he brushed off his left hand, the wound began to heal in an instant, but he frowned to see if the pain was still there.

“Until you die, you can’t imagine that you’re going to die.”

Crepin raised his body and picked up his long sword again. And with his bizarrely twisted left hand, he gathered Mevular’s magical power again.

– Whoa!

Dozens of tentacles are pouring out again. The tentacles, dotted with bizarre chunks of flesh, seemed to make me nauseous just looking at them.

– Whoa!

– Crisp! Kaah!

However, more than half of them were slaughtered and disappeared due to the magic that spread along with Merylda’s cry.

The wind blades that Merylda uses are different in scale from normal elemental magic. The blade of magical power that stretched out in all directions devastated the surroundings, and even Crepin’s own body was engulfed in the aftermath of that magic.

― Push! Push Shun!

A few pieces of his flesh fell off and wounds continued to form, but Mevular’s magical power somehow minimized the impact and made the wounds heal.

However, its power cannot be infinite. Crepin has not yet fully embraced Mevular’s magic.

In the end, if you want to deal with Mevular’s magic, you have to use her own magic as a medium to some extent. Of course, the result is overwhelming compared to the mana he puts in, but it cannot completely replace his mana.

Crepin, who has fully embraced Mevular’s power, is difficult. So, it was necessary to fight quickly.

As Crepin tried to regain his stance, the dagger in his left arm exploded. Not being aware of the explosion caused by the spirit ceremony, my body staggered for a moment, and that moment became the time for me to delve into it.

― Wrath!

As soon as I hit the floor, I felt a sense of floating in my body.

From noblemtl.com

Merylda’s wind magic was making the movements of my body light. By moving faster than expected, the distance was narrowed, and the magic power was drawn back and the dagger was returned.

Crepins don’t get hit twice either. Avoiding the feet of Merylda who rushed at her, she floats her body and rises above the mansion site.

His fighting style began to be a little more careful.

He climbs over the railing and floats in the air with the moon in the background… It cannot be dealt with in close combat.

– Whoa!

Again, magic began to gather in his hands. This is a known attack pattern.

Summon ‘Eye of Evil’. Among Crepin’s behavior patterns, it is an attack method that appears almost at the end. Having already used it means acknowledging that the situation is not favorable.

Of course, there was no reason to leave it alone. While firing five or six magical arrows as it is, he summoned Laysia.

― Paah!

The magic arrow that was heading towards the air exploded, and water spread like a waterfall in the sky above the mansion site. In that brief gap, Laysia popped out from among the waterfalls that had bloomed due to the ‘appearance of Suwon’ and asked about Crepin’s shoulder.

“Aww!”

Crepin screamed and tried to knock Laysia away.

The wound continues to heal, but the pain in the body remains the same. Since there is a limit to the human mind, it was clear that he would fall out if he constantly attacked.

Crepin fell as it was, bitten in the shoulder by Laysia. Was this sudden attack pattern completely unexpected?

Toward him as he fell down the mansion site, I also ran in that direction.

“I’m running after you! It has to be done for sure!”

[If you do it wrong, you will fall and die! ]

“Take care of yourself! You have a lot of magic left!”

[Please! ]

As I stepped on the railing and flew into the sky, Merylda’s wind blew through me.

From noblemtl.com

Merylda’s Spirit Ceremony – It floated for a while under the rising air current, then began to fall again under the force of gravity.

Only the sound of the rustling of the wind and flapping collars filled my ears.

At the end of the field of vision, down there, I could see Crepins falling down after somehow shoving Lacia away.

– Kwaang!

Perhaps he is not yet familiar with the operation of magical powers, and he is trying to bring back the power of Mevula somehow… It was thrown into the central garden, raising dust like that.

– Whoa!

I also received Merylda’s wind magic as it was, and I ran towards him while minimizing the force of gravity.

– Kwaang! Kaak!

The flower bed in the scorched central garden landed on him and he hated the weight and put a dagger in it again. This time it was the forearm of the right hand holding the long sword.

“aah!”

Since Mevular’s power had not yet fully penetrated, Crepin seemed to feel even greater pain.

He screams and complains of pain, but it’s not over yet.

I took a big leap backwards with my dagger in place.

The night sky full of creepy stars would not be the only thing that came into his sight while lying down.

At the same time, a giant wolf-shaped spirit that jumped off the roof attacked him, swinging his heavy feet.

― aan!

It was a shock as if a whole container had fallen and was crushed. A normal human would have no choice but to die instantly.

However, Crepin, which has expressed Mevular’s magical powers, boasts of such a tenacious vitality that it is truly disgusting.

Of course, I don’t think it can end here, so I prepared an additional attack… .

―Gugugung, bang!

The ground that could not withstand the heavy impact collapsed.

Still, it is an unstable ground with numerous tentacles rising and making holes. There was even a huge laboratory in the basement, so it would not be strange if it collapsed immediately.

As if Merylda’s attack was the final blow, the entire floor of the central garden collapsed and was sucked into the underground research facility.

―Kwagga River! Cock!

Laysia, who ran quickly, protected me, but I couldn’t stop it from falling down.

So Crepin and I crashed down to the large hall of the underground research facility.

―Pabang! Kang!

– Whoa!

Dust rose, and the view of the underground facility caught my eye again. It was the very huge scepter where Arwen was threaded into the greatsword.

However, the ceiling has completely collapsed, making it difficult to see the night sky. It is shaped like a gladiator arena that is recessed like the Colosseum.

In the center of it, you can see Crepin, who rose to his feet with his bizarre flesh squeaking. was still alive.

The bizarre flesh ate the entire left arm, and now it was spreading to half of his upper body. As he went on, he was more actively embracing Mevular’s magic.

If you try to handle Mevular’s magic beyond the limit, you lose your sanity. Like the servants wandering around the mansion.

Since Crepin has been studying Mevular’s magic for a long time, he has a unique understanding of it. Therefore, it can handle a level of magic that is deeper than others, but it is no different for him to go crazy when he goes over the limit.

However, despite the pain he struggled with, he was still holding on to consciousness.

It is familiar to him that more than half of his body has been eaten by flesh. Awakening Crepin… In Act 4 of ＜Sylvania’s Failed Swordsman>, this is the last semi-final boss you have to deal with before you cut Mebula.

In fact, subjugation of Mebular is more like a raid, and it is enough to learn the attack pattern and insert the ‘Sword of God (神殺劍)’ in the appropriate area. Therefore, the tricky awakening crepin was close to the actual boss.

He fires all kinds of instant death patterns, periodically summons tentacles to attack the back row, recovers his own health, and resurrects again and again if he wants to die… Really disgusting boss

The visuals are terrible, and the boss battle itself takes place in a building full of flesh. For this reason, he is the boss who remains traumatized by many players. Difficulty is difficulty, and atmosphere is atmosphere. A terrible enemy in any way.

He rose to his feet by exhaling his breath, and he is already in a state where he cannot be called a human.

The bizarrely moving flesh twitched, drawing out Mevular’s magical power.

“I didn’t want to draw power like this until I went to subjugate the Imperial Castle.”

He once again drew his magic to the ‘Eyes of Evil’ that spread in the sky.

At the moment when the magic power is gathered in the evil eye, hundreds of rays that are difficult to avoid cover the area.

In ＜Failed Swordsman of Sylvania>, he was instantly killed when hit. How about in reality?

What’s clear is that you don’t have to check it yourself.

The moment I gathered the magic from my hand, the heavy wolf rose through the crumbling fragments again.

Even in the slightest shock, there was only a slight scratch. High spirits cannot be easily wounded in any way.

From noblemtl.com

Merylda’s wind covered the area, and I charged in to disperse the man’s magic within it. However, the power of fully awakened Crepin is enormous.

As he gathered his magical powers, he raised his left arm, which had now become so ugly that it was hard to even call it a hand.

“Stop it! Merylda!”

When I shouted, Merylda quickly stopped moving without questioning or questioning. The heavy wolf’s body stopped and dust flew away.

‘The Blade of the Void’.

It was an instant death technique that gathered magical power and released it for a while, bursting the hearts of all living things moving around it.

It can only be avoided by stopping all movements in time for him to gather his magical power. The problem is the gremlins and tentacles.

In ＜Sylvania’s Failed Swordsman>, you had to avoid the constant influx of small enemies, while at the same time grasping Crepin’s attack patterns and avoiding them.

A group of gremlins descending from the sky and attacking them, and tentacles rising from the ground to attack. In the meantime, I clenched my teeth and stopped moving.

– Whoa, whoa!

– Crisp! crispy!

― Kee eh eh!

Then, after a while, all the gremlins in the surrounding area vomited blood and fell. The Void Blade is magic that does not distinguish between enemies. Fortunately, it is.

After seeing that, I quickly moved again and rushed towards Crepin. However, enough magic had already been injected into the ‘Eye of Evil’.

A chunk of flesh floating in the sky. A beam of magical energy was about to pour out from that bizarre piece of flesh that had four tiny eyes.

I’ve dealt with it several times, but it’s still extremely difficult. I clenched my teeth and thought that I had to stop it somehow.

I tried to raise the body’s magic power as it is to implement a defense law, but no matter how much I think about it, it doesn’t seem like it will be able to completely block the light beam.

The moment you try to hide the vital points of your body with the thought of avoiding at least a fatal wound… .

“Ahhh!”

A girl jumped down from the sky.

His eyes were focused on him at the sudden scream.

The open sky towards the central garden.

Saint Clarisse, who was running across the central garden, looked down at the crumbling ground, and flew herself.

Against the backdrop of the night sky, the saint descends with her holy robes flying. Her eyes showed a look of embarrassment, but her lips were tightly shut.

It seems to play slowly as it descends underground in the moonlight.

It looks as if an angel is coming to the earth, but in reality, it is just a human who clenched his fists and jumped down with courage.

In his arms, he holds a cane wrapped in leather cloth tightly. The precarious appearance made it clear that if someone had to accept it, he would be seriously injured.

If a fragile girl like Saint Clarisse fell from this height, it wouldn’t end in a broken line.

Her body reflexively jumped out, and she quickly took a position to receive Saint Clarisse. The defensive circles were scattered as they were.

– Whoa!

As I slid towards the saint, raising dust, as if tackling a tackle, I slipped into her arms and settled down.

Clarisse’s sacred robes flew away in the aftermath, and dust rose again.

“nice… Ugh… Cool, cool! Lady… What is this… !”

Before I could say anything, Clarisse wrapped my shoulders and hugged my head tightly, then twisted and turned her back towards Mevula.

– Whoa, whoa!

At that moment, numerous rays of light poured out of the ‘Eye of Evil’. Its power, which devours the world around it, is so enormous that it is difficult to block them one by one.

However, everything is fair in front of the ‘protection of the Holy Law’ worn by Saint Clarisse. Only those who have received the blessing of Telos can kill her.

Clarisse closed her eyes tightly, hugged me tightly, and concentrated her mind on the manifestation of the Holy Law.

Only after one storm had passed, he realized that he had survived without any injuries due to Clarisse’s holy magic.

“Honey, why are you so suddenly… ”

“I believed that Ed-sunbaenim would accept it. Is it okay to ask questions about danger later?”

Saying that, Clarisse hugged me tightly. Between our arms was the staff that I had requested from Yenika.

He risked his life to deliver this one and jumped from that height. Of course, only with the belief that I will accept it.

It goes beyond the dangerous level to the reckless level. But Clarisse didn’t care and said while stroking my cheek.

“Ed-sunbaenim was injured… ”

Those words did not last to the end.

– Whoa!

Soon, a shock wave rose again centered on Crepin. Rather than a means to attack with hostility, it was more of a by-product of receiving additional magical power from Mevula.

Therefore, Clarisse’s protection could not exert its power, and Clarisse herself went out and fell. I fell off at the same time and supported me from behind, but I clenched my teeth to see if there was any shock.

“Uh huh… ”

“Lady.”

“it’s okay.”

Clarisse clenched her teeth and stood up, looking straight at Crepin. He frowned at his bizarre appearance, but the will in his eyes did not disappear.

The left arm eaten by the flesh is getting bigger and bigger, and the skin of the body is almost non-existent.

The increasingly bizarre appearance becomes closer to a monster.

Crepin bent over for a while to accept the magic power, and then suddenly turned her gaze to me.

“Still, alive.”

Saying that, he took the long sword and took off.

A horde of gremlins is pouring down from the sky, and the rising tentacles still rush at me with the sole intention of tearing my limbs apart.

From noblemtl.com

Most of the miscellaneous enemies were wiped out by Merylda’s roar, but Crepin clenched her teeth and withstood the aftermath of its magical power.

– Kaang!

I managed to dodge the long sword. As it was, she grabbed the saint’s shoulder and rolled her body sideways, cutting off one of the nearby tentacles with the blade of a wind blade.

“Hey!”

Clarisse screamed and clinged to my body.

As I have said before, the heads of the Roth Taylor family are baptized by the Telos Church from generation to generation.

I don’t know how it would be if it was an attack using Mevular’s power, but if he attacks in such a way that he directly uses physical power, it’s not safe even for a saint.

This is because the protection of the Holy Law worn by the saints does not have any effect among the same believers.

“Laysia!”

As I shouted, before I could give any further instructions, a lioness made of water appeared and snatched the saint’s collar.

“Hey!”

After abducting Clarisse as it was, Laysia evacuated to a safe zone far away.

― Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Crepin, who looked towards me, was twisting bizarrely again.

“Whew… after… ”

I sat down and took a deep breath, removed all the leather straps that were holding the staff and pulled them out. A ‘Thousand-year-old wooden staff struck by lightning’ with all kinds of spirits engraved on it appeared.

It’s a magic engineering tool that raises the spirits you’ve gotten used to, to the limit, and makes you reach the limit of your sensitivity.

This alone increases the combat efficiency absurdly, but it may not be enough against the fully awakened Crepin.

So it is difficult

I definitely had to subdue him. To do this, it is necessary to mobilize additional means.

“It’s a tearful scene. What is that stick, walking to the point of life?”

Crepin grinned as he dripped blood.

“There must have been an emotional connection with the saint. Whether it was love between the opposite sexes or just friendship, there must have been times when I felt satisfied with such a warm relationship.”

While capturing his twisted body, he continued the story without erasing his laughter.

“Unfortunately, I, Crepin Rostailer, are far from those kinds of people.”

“… ”

“Yes, I am ‘pure evil’.”

Crepin picked up his sword.

“If you want to reach stronger power, stronger power, higher position, you use it and throw it away, whether it be family or vassal. If you have to kill someone, you kill them, and if you want to hit someone in the back, you do whatever you want. They neither rationalize nor try to be understood.”

Even the creepy and creepy laughter brings goosebumps.

“That’s who I am. Do you understand now?”

Saying that, Crepin gathered her magic power.

From noblemtl.com

Mevular’s stronger magical power gathers into the ‘Eyes of Evil’.

It is best to get rid of the eye itself, but Mevular’s body hardly takes any damage unless it’s a ‘new death sword’ in Taylor McLaugh’s swordsmanship ceremony. You can do damage by hitting like a madman with a huge amount of magical power, but in reality, it’s like pouring water into a pot with a hole in it.

As it is a magic that embodies a part of Mevular’s body, even that eye cannot do damage effectively unless it is a new killing sword.

“Huh.”

I knelt down, hunched over my back, clutching my cane.

Physically, I was quite limited. He used Merylda’s elemental ritual to perfection several times, and also dealt with the lieutenant elemental for a long time.

Nevertheless, I draw out magic power and draw it out again.

If you have a staff, you can draw magic power more efficiently than you do now.

During the long time that I flew to this unknown world and endured, the field of spirits practiced and trained like crazy.

Haven’t you been able to handle even high-ranking spirits without the help of any magic tools now?

It doesn’t make sense to say that I can’t draw more magical power because I’m exhausted now.

However, we have to draw even more power against that nonsense.

I took out the last resort I had cherished and saved in my arms.

Without loosening the strength of his right hand holding the staff, he holds the ‘Golden Phoenix Ring of Glast’ in his left hand.

He took a deep breath in, and then exhaled deeply.

If you decide to wear a ring, you have to finish it in one go.

The power of the ring, which draws even future magic power, once used, it will not be able to handle it for a while.

So, don’t think about ending it with a mediocre level attack.

stronger. more definitely.

I had to draw out all the sensibility that I could pull out with this staff, and mobilize the magical energy that I had transferred to the ring, so I had to show more than my ability.

He closed his eyes and clenched his teeth tightly.

The sensation of blood vessels bursting out of his bitten lip rushes up.

It is only after concentrating and concentrating on the mind that the amount of magical power flowing through the body is fully felt.

It was only after I closed my eyes and focused on the sense of magical power that I was able to face my emotions alone.

A householder who claims to be pure evil leads his floating body and reigns over the night sky. Mevular’s magical energy that fills the underground laboratory makes even breathing difficult.

I clenched my teeth as I continued attacking Crepin.

Those born with the fate of the wicked. A monster that burns the world, seeks greater power, and takes pleasure in doing evil.

After hearing that, I now understand why I kept clenching my teeth. This was also one of my revolts.

“Don’t be rude.”

It was a whisper that came out.

“Where in the world is there such a thing as pure evil?”

Crepin’s expression twisted at the sudden words. I continued speaking without hesitation.

“I watched a bastard like you until I got tired of it. You fugitive bastard.”

The magic that flows through the body is enormous. An incomparable amount of volume filled the hall of the underground laboratory.

“Don’t pretend to be a lofty philosopher. You don’t want me to know that you’re just a coward who ran away from fear?”

A street of profanity that came out without even knowing the English language.

Did I feel uncomfortable with the sudden swearing, which I had only dealt with reticently? Crepin’s expression became even more distorted.

Until the first human who shot a person on the battlefield turned into a madman.

As if rationalizing himself that he originally enjoyed killing.

It’s just that they don’t want to see the back of their evil deeds by covering themselves with pure evil. Because he was such a madman in the first place.

Crepin Roasttailer.

At first, he must have become a villain just to survive, to save his life in the swamp of a filthy power struggle.

From the sacrificed ancestors, the wives who couldn’t protect them, the daughters who ultimately ruined their lives, the abandoned vassals, and the people who killed them in order to defend their place.

It was a blood-stained life, but he probably didn’t want to bear the weight of that death.

“What do you know?”

“I know better than you.”

A vast amount of magic was spurted out with a force that would soar up to the sky. After participating in so much magical power, I can’t even imagine how badly I will have to be in the future.

Anyway, it’s more important to hit Crepin’s neck right now. The latter is a point to think about later.

So, I drew out the magic and drew it out again.

Those who have been on the battlefield know the weight of death better than anyone.

From the first senior who was shot in my place on the battlefield, to the bard who was bleeding in the Glouct Hall.

He has endured many deaths and never once tried to turn his eyes away from it. The corpses line up side by side and sit on my shoulders.

Whether I died out of necessity, out of necessity, by my mistake, or by my own will. The dead remain a weight of their own, constantly weighing on the mind.

The whispers of temptation to cast their weight over oblivion came to me hundreds of times. It seems like someone is whispering that it’s good for you to pretend you didn’t see it, turn your head, and treat it as something that never happened.

I’ve never been tempted by that temptation.

I still remember all those names.

That is the crucial difference between you and me.

“I love bastards like you… I hate it the most… ”

There is no one who does not have a grain of dirt on his hand. Where is the man who lives his whole life without committing a single evil deed?

The only thing that matters is the attitude towards the evil deed.

― aa

The summoning ceremony, which was fully manifested, swallowed the surroundings and lit up.

Heat spurted out from the rising dungeon.

By using both the power of the staff and the power of the ring to the limit, I try to manifest a spirit beyond my ability into the world.

Fireworks gushed out like Mt.

A wall of flames has arrived at the site of the central mansion.

A ‘highest spirit’ that there is only one individual for each element.

No matter how extreme I was, I couldn’t summon him completely… Part of it is possible

The highest fire spirit in history, said to have burned down a large mountain range in the mythical era. ‘Theorphis’.

In the blazing flames, its head popped out of the courthouse. The heat rising from the wide open mouth has the power to burn everything in the world equally.

‘Thousand-year-old wooden staff struck by lightning’ has the ability to implement all spirit rituals regardless of affinity, even for uncontracted spirits.

The highest level spirit ceremony – ‘Blessing of the Fire Dragon’.

It was the power of fear that burned all the ‘magic’ in the area.
