How to Survive at the Academy chapter 187

Subjugation of Ed (10)

– ‘Tailly. You’re the main character.’

– ‘No matter how hard and hard it seems right now, the day will come when you will overcome it all and see the light.’

A night full of stars.

Ayla whispered to the wounded Taylor, sitting side by side behind the barn.

Even if it was just a word of comfort, Taylor herself knew how much power it had been.

– ‘The reason the hero is wonderful and beautiful is because he overcame hard trials.’

– ‘So, these hard trials and pains for Taylor right now are just the ingredients for shining the glory when Taylor overcomes all of them.’

However, contrary to what I thought it was just a consolation… Isla Triss was sincere.

Ayla was sincerely cheering for Taylor as she went through all the trials and tribulations, no matter how hard.

– ‘It is usually darkest before sunrise.’

The cool air of the night when grasshoppers cry sits between the boy and the girl.

– ‘So, you must never forget that reality is dark right now. Taylor. You are the protagonist of your life. You’ll get through it all.’

– Shoot aah

it’s raining pouring down The night is still dark.

A hut camp in the North Woods.

A blond boy stands among the pounding rain.

As if something was wrong with the cold raindrops, as if the darkness of the dreary night was something else.

Standing like a holy saint, his hands relaxed with his dagger… Ed Roth Taylor.

Looking at Ayla, she spoke with her mouth open.

—What can I say, trials do not always come only to the protagonist.

Rather, there are more people in the world who cannot live the life of the protagonist.

The stage of the world is too wide and there are too many characters to embrace everyone as the protagonist.

That’s why, whether it’s Isla or Edden, whoever it is… we end up living the life of a supporting actor.

Even for such a person, harsh trials come equally.

Whether you’re kicked out of the academy and lead a wild life in the woods, trying to find your place in the flow of a life-threatening scenario, or clenching your teeth in Sylvania, where you have no allies, and withstood the accusations.

Unlike those who live the life of the protagonist who hopes that there will be light at the end of the ordeal.

Not even sure if there will be light or darkness at the end of it, this world is just full of those who hold on tight.

That’s the life of Ed Roth-Taylor, standing upright on the final stage of Act V.

Yenica Palerover, Glast, Lucy Meirl, Crepin Rothtailer, Sylvania Robester.

The ending of those who were in charge of the end of the stage he saw in ＜ Failed Swordsman of Sylvania >.

It was the life of the supporting actors engraved in those two eyes.

Leading and supporting roles, heroes and villains.

Ayla knew from the beginning that it was impossible to divide the world in such a shallow way.

But you can tell when you are locked in a dark room and listening to the news of the world. It is also a well-known fact that there are people who are likely to lead a lead-in life.

Naturally, there are more supporting actors than protagonists in the world.

There are far more people who connect the flow of the story so that the stage can move on to the next act and reach the ending intact.

It is the story of writers who live an ordinary life, far from the extraordinary.

That’s why Ed always makes eye contact with them.

A strong alchemist with a passion for learning, a blood-drunk swordsman, a protector of the steppe, a weak-minded elementalist, and a sober elementalist.

That the life of the supporting actors is Ed’s life, and that we have to endure all kinds of trials without any promise…

Because Ayla felt it vaguely…

“The Holy Chang Dragon Velbrok will be resurrected.”

Ed Roth-Taylor’s shoulders, standing sternly in the rain, seemed heavier than he had expected.

“He’s the only one who can kill it.”

*The wreckage of the Elte Sanghoe building, which collapsed with a roar, was pushed down in the front yard of the Sanghoe.

By forcing Clevius, who was having a hard time controlling his body, Elvira came to a safe place and gently wiped away the rainwater running down his face.

“This is… it’s bigger than I thought…”

Clavius lay down under the tree in the front yard of the store and squeezed the water off his head.

“Is it okay to make a fuss like this?”

“In the beginning, the owner of the building was Lortel. Ed-senpai must have done it because there was a way to fix it.”

As Elvira frowned and sighed deeply, Ziggs came out from the rubble of the building, dusting her clothes. Seeing how she naturally responds to Elvira’s words, she looks fine.

There doesn’t seem to be any serious injuries, and it doesn’t look like they fought hard in the first place.

Unlike Elvira, who really fought hard and clenched her teeth, Elvira didn’t seem to be struggling, so Elvira opened her half-moon eyes and looked at Ziggs.

“What is it, Ziggs? You look fine. Taylor was running out with a force to destroy everything at any moment.”

“Even if it looks like that, he must have held on to the last reason. It seems that he didn’t want to cut someone he knew well.”

Jigs was also wet in the rain, and banged his bangs and rolled them up. He looked a lot calmer than usual, probably because of his hair stuck in the rain.

“Actually, he didn’t really care about us. He must have just wanted to run out to save Isla right away. Elvira, are you not hurt?”

“It was nothing. It’s a temperament that gets stronger the more you drive it into a corner… I couldn’t feel it when I only heard it in words, but seeing it in front of my nose makes me nod my head.”

Elvira leaned against the tree trunk and shivered a little bit.

“Honestly, I thought it was going to end on the four lines of Ziggs.”

“I was embarrassed too. When did Clevius come?”

“I don’t know. Why did this stupid idiot come all the way…”

He glanced at Clevius, who had lost consciousness, with a squint, and sighed deeply without finishing his words Elvy. It was as if he didn’t want to argue with Clevius.

Jiggs looked at it and smirked.

This person and that person, if everyone looks inside and out, in the end they are weak.

“I don’t know, really. Once I got involved, how am I going to fix all this?”

“Anyway, all the big things we have to do are finished, so let’s prepare to withdraw. Are you going to the Ophelis Hall?”

“Yeah, what. But… what about Yenica-senpai and Tracyana-senpai?”

When you look at the building of the Elte Company, your tongue will stick out.

The cut that cut through that huge building is as clean as a knife cut by anyone who sees it.

The sight of the building being cut by a knife. Will there be another chance to see such a strange appearance?

Even if you were a descendant of the sword castle, you never imagined that you would launch a sword strike that cuts through this range with this amount of power.

The power of Taylor, who is at a corner, somehow resists fate… Even the two of them who have been through it before and after childbirth could not easily guess.

“Tracyana sunbaenim is taking care of the company’s employees. It must have been the direct protection magic, since there should be no casualties.”

“It’s reliable no matter what.”

“I came here to help too. You and Clavius are injured, so there’s no need to join in on the backtracking.”

From the point of view of Ziggs, the intrusion of Clevius is an unexpected variable.

Originally, there was no plan to corner Taylor to this extent. However, even this is just a tongue-in-cheek at Taylor’s will, who overcame all of this and ran away.

As Elvira nodded and leaned fully against the trunk of the tree, Ziggs glanced around a few times and said.

“But… Jenika-senpai…? Aren’t you here?”

*- Shoot aah

In the pouring rain, Ayla’s pupils tremble greatly.

I pondered what I had said for a moment, and then stuttered without even thinking to fix my trembling eyes.

“I beg your pardon…? Sung Chang-ryong is… resurrected…? The seal of the great sage Sylvania is being lifted…”

It is a story like lightning in the dry sky.

If you catch someone along the way, and soon the whole area will be devastated, so don’t stay still and run away.

There is no reason to even know how to know such a fact. It may be natural to first suspect that he has gone out of his mind.

In the beginning, I didn’t even expect that the people would trust me as I said.

Aila couldn’t say anything, and stayed still for a while, and I couldn’t be in a position to be sober, so I just stared at Aila.

[ Master Ed…! ]

It was then.

A bat suddenly flew through the forest and flew out and sat on my shoulder.

“Mug?”

Despite the pouring rain, the fire on Mug’s body was burning brightly.

After becoming a Lieutenant Spirit, he was hardly affected by the climate.

From noblemtl.com

Mug led a rather sullen body, stuck to my ear, and whispered something.

I nodded my head, drawing out my magic power and sending the mug back. Then, Mug was quietly counter-summoned and disappeared.

It is a situation in which it is almost impossible to draw magical power from the body. I wanted to minimize the mana consumed to maintain the spirit.

“He said Taylor was coming.”

“I beg your pardon…?”

“Looks like you’ve cleared up the Elte Chamber. It doesn’t seem like everything was drilled out as planned.”

When I said that, Ayla shuddered her pupils again.

Are you really going through it all? That fact is unbelievable.

Even Ayla, who had always trusted and depended on Taylor, never thought that she would overcome and break through all the walls of that level.

So do I.

Even if I was born with the fate of the main character, I thought there was a degree. I didn’t know for sure because I didn’t know the situation of the Elte company accurately, but I didn’t expect it to be this much.

“They will be coming to camp soon.”

“Then… are you fighting Taylor?”

“do not worry. It doesn’t happen what you think it is.”

I lightly raised the magic of my body. I can’t even make a tenth of my usual output.

Physically, the body still has a slight fever. It was raining and my body was heavy.

“I can’t beat Taylor right now anyway. There are too many restrictions on my body right now.”

“Then you… why…!”

“Didn’t you tell me everything from the beginning? I have always been consistent.”

From the first time I made plans with Isla, I’ve always been honest about my purpose.

“All I want to do is check his specs.”

In order to catch the Velbroque without damage, there are at least some things you need to have.

The most important thing is that Taylor’s swordsmanship, who will give the final blow to Velbroque, has grown properly. To be more precise, the Swordsmanship, the Dragon Sword, the Realization of the Holy Sword, the Space Cut, and the Deep Sword. You have to learn to do this.

And in order to reduce the casualties as much as possible during the resurrection of Velbrok, as many forces as possible should be involved in the subjugation. There must be a systematic movement of a large-scale subjugation team to make preparations easier.

The Imperial Knights Templar, the Elte Mercenary Corps, the Apostles of the Holy Emperor, and even members of the imperial imperial family… Whether they mobilize political means or make a deal, they must all join the subjugation squad.

In addition to that… only by securing the belongings left by Sylvania Robester, the ‘minimum condition’ to catch Bell Broke without any casualties will be met.

Taylor’s growth check is just the first step.

– Kwaang! Whoa ah ah ah ah!

From near the entrance of the northern forest, the sound of sprinting the floor with magical energy.

Birds flutter and flutter, and the noise spreads throughout the forest.

It was the sound of Taylor, who was probably angry to the end, running through the forest to the camp. Now that the sound is audible directly, it’s really close.

Judging by the speed at which the sound was approaching, it was almost there.

After checking the condition of the dagger, I put it in the scabbard, and took the tech supplies, various traps, and crafting tools scattered around the camp.

He took off his school uniform overcoat soaked in the rain, and rolled up the arms of his shirt. She swept her face from the bottom, and pushed it up to her bangs, wiping away the rainwater once.

“You are…”

Only then did Ayla speak.

“What are you carrying?”

A question posed as if anxiously with wide-open eyes.

He completely captured the dagger, put it in, and gathered the magic power at the tip of his hand.

Unlike usual, the dark red energy that rises… is the power of Holy Spirit magic.

“Are you curious?”

“…”

Then let me know

Saying that, he approached Ayla. I slowly opened my mouth towards her, who nodded while looking at me with anxious eyes.

“Listen to me.”

“…”

“It’s just… nothing.”

“……”

Little by little, the power of the Holy Spirit’s magical power began to surround Ayla’s body.

Even though it was only a very small amount of magic, the load began to apply to his body. Breathing intermittently stopped, or a cold sweat was welling up.

Nevertheless, I clench my teeth and unleash the magnificence magic ‘delusion’,

He was still only at proficiency level 1, so he couldn’t take control of the ritual properly.

It just makes you dazed for a moment or makes it hard for your thoughts to flow. However, at this point, that was enough.

“If you say something useless, it will only make things worse. Get some rest now.”

– Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

As soon as I clenched my fists tightly, Ayla’s consciousness was cut off.

Because of the recoil of the Holy Spirit’s magic, I had to frown for a while and endure the pain.

– Iron Puddle.

Eventually, Ayla’s body, who had lost consciousness, was recovered. It wasn’t very heavy because of his dwarf body.

He led Ayla as it was and pushed her body toward the wooden shelter. Putting it under this will at least avoid the rain.

I covered it with piles of fur lying around, so that I could maintain a moderate body temperature. The entrance was also padded so that rain did not seep in.

After recovering Ayla, who had completely lost consciousness, she slowly got up from the rain.

– Shoot aa

The intermittent thumping and running sound stopped.

After covering the entrance of the wooden shelter well, I got up as it was… but I didn’t have to look back.

Even without looking back, I knew who was behind him.

– Coogong, thump.

– Shoot aa

“Come here, Taylor McLaugh.”

So I called out my name. No answer came back.

I slowly turned my gaze back. After checking the appearance of the boy at the entrance to the camp, he completely turned around and stood up to him.

“Ed Roth Taylor.”

In a completely worn out swordsman uniform, his body was covered in blood.

Her white hair was leaking, and her eyes were burning red.

Needless to say, the protagonist of ＜ Failed Sword Castle of Sylvania >. Taylor McLaugh is right.

The way he stares at me with scorching eyes is full of anger.

I don’t know why, but a cynical laugh came out.

“you…”

– Wrath!

Before he could say anything, the sword strike flew first.

Taylor McLaugher has very little time allowed. As if even the time to exchange a word was wasted, he ran away for once.

– Kaang!

I try to implement defense magic quickly, but there is a limit with limited magic.

I was swept towards the campfire by the impact of the sword strike. He must have blocked it, but after rolling a few times on the floor, he had to get himself back on his feet.

“Whew…”

I get up in the mud. He wipes the mud off his face with his forearm, and looks back at Taylor in the rain.

The protagonist of this world raises his eyes and opens his eyes with a great sword flowing with magnificent magic.

You can tell by pretending. Among the swordsmanship ceremony, the ‘Terminal Horse’ skill, which corresponds to the critical period, has been activated. This is the part where you can see how hard and difficult the ordeal at Elte was.

Taylor is in a cornered state. It is unknown how long the power of the swordsmanship ceremony will last.

The one on that side is full of shit, and this one is in a situation where you can’t use your magic. The irony is that the weight of the scale fits just right.

He was so blunt, and then burst out laughing.

“Okay, let’s try it.”

I held the dagger in reverse, and in the other hand I took out a handful of magic equipment.

Rainy Cabin Camp. So, while facing Taylor for a while… he waited for his opponent to move.

The stage was coming to an end.

*“Tell the driver. Let the wagon start.”

By the time Dune finished explaining, Lucy’s eyes were already in an unusual state.

Princess Fenia and her entourage were watching each other. If Princess Persica’s convoy was really mixed for that reason, it would be a story that Princess Persica used Princess Fenia’s movement for her own tactics.

I didn’t know how Princess Fenia would take this fact.

However, Lucy seemed to like the position of such a Phoenician princess… As if I had become a princess, she gave instructions to the princess’s driver.

“I want to go to camp too.”

Dune looked at Lucy with trembling eyes.

With the witch’s hat fixed on her face, she opened her blank eyes, and she couldn’t read the emotion behind it.
