How to Survive at the Academy chapter 236

Velbrok Subjugation (4)

I was expecting that things would not go as planned.

That is why, even in such a dire situation where Velbroque suddenly rose and turned the island upside down, he was able to make a quick decision and move.

This flow is slightly twisted differently from the ＜Failed Swordsman of Sylvania> scenario that I am familiar with… because I’m so used to it now.

So it’s been moving for a while.

When Jenica Palerover is eaten by Velosper a month early, when Lortel Keheln is in danger of being captured by Elte Keheln, even if Lucy Meiril is not driven into darkness unexpectedly, Saint Clarisse is corrupted. Even if you don’t, when Crepin unscheduled Mevula at the Roth Taylor estate…

At that time, he had survived somehow by taking the optimal response according to the situation at that time.

However, the reason we were able to cope with each crisis situation… After all, the existence of the enemy did not change.

It was because he could clearly see who the target was to be defeated, he also knew the means to subdue them, and he was able to arrange in advance what to prepare in the end.

However, the appearance of the opponent exposed through the window of the furnishing room… is an existence that transcends all such rules.

The Great Sage Sylvania Robester.

Said to be the greatest genius in human history, he left many magical research records and achievements, and is the creator of this Sylvanian Academy, and the master of Aspect Magic.

And… a person from the distant past.

She is a person who should not exist in the present.

Based on the setting of ＜Failed Swordsman of Sylvania>, he is a wizard who appears as a character from the past when the magic realm was not yet developed as it is now.

And… he is also the person who has maintained the sealing magic of Velbrok sealed in the deep sea of this Aken Island.

I checked the scribbles on the sage’s envelope with a quill once more. Although the hastily scribbled tee came out, I could confirm that this message was directed to me and not to anyone else.

Sylvania Robester was conscious of a human being.

Not only that… it’s a fight that it was Sylvania Robester herself who called me into this world.

However, why bother leaving a message on this sage’s seal?

If you have summoned me yourself, shouldn’t you appear in front of me and explain all the circumstances?

“You… you couldn’t find me…?”

There are few possibilities that come to mind.

“Or… a big change has occurred in your life… For example…”

A view of Sylvania through the window of the furnishing room.

Against the background of the broken and cracked hallway window, the scene with her hair untied while wearing a robe full of colorful patterns.

Outside the window, Velbroque ran rampant, and Lucy’s all sorts of high-ranking magic exploded at the end of the century.

Against the backdrop of the scene, Sylvania was letting out a bizarre laughter.

Even pretending to be, it was very different from the appearance of the great sage Sylvania that had been passed down.

At the sight of him smirking in madness… Deputy Principal Rachel, who was slammed into the wall, widened her eyes.

At that moment, the true identity of this girl who suddenly broke into the Trix building and overpowered all the key personnel of the undergraduate school… began to be predicted.

It is not easy to recognize right away by pretending.

It has changed a lot from what has been passed down, and this is because he is a character from the distant past. It is too unreasonable to ask that you recognize such a person immediately.

“you are…”

In her fading mind, Rachel was about to say something… At that moment, darkness fell on Sylvania’s face.

Unlike the last time he was laughing and laughing, the great sage spoke out with a face that was so expressionless that it was creepy.

“It was hard.”

A voice without a smile. The temperature difference made Rachel goosebumps.

“Now rest.”

In that way, a couple of Lieutenant’s freezing magic ‘Ice Spear’ were pierced into Rachel’s heart.

In fact, it was the death of the one who had control over everything as the final decision maker of the Sylvania Academy.

There was only silence in the hallway.

Only the occasional roar of the bellbrokes, the sound of battles resounding throughout the school, and the sound of a magic circle from constantly pouring out of monsters were spreading.

In the middle of the hallway, Sylvania burst into mad laughter for a few moments, but then the laughter ceased and she turned to face again.

Then, look around slowly. Do you think that the Trix Hall is not completely organized yet?

All the students trapped in the furnishing room are holding their breath.

The student, who had slipped under the organizing shelf, covered in dust, pressed his mouth tight, and somehow suppressed the groaning of fear.

Even Taylor, leaning against the wall in the corner, somehow endured the rising pain and pressed the wound down. Ayla also clings to Taylor’s side, swallowing dry saliva over and over again.

Other students from the Combat Department and the Alchemy Department also hid here and there and saw Sylvania from the window of the supply room.

Sylvania… walks slowly across the hallway.

He looks out the window and then turns his head to look at the door of the furnishing room.

Thanks to Rachel’s last implementation of the camouflage magic, it’ll look just like an ordinary wall.

However… Sylvania Robester is a person who has reached an enormous level in the field of magic that no other historical figure can compare.

He bowed his head, and then he twisted his body again and walked towards the door of the furnishing room.

Then, as if walking staggeringly, he approaches the door of the furnishing room and bangs his head against the glass window.

When the unique cold touch of glass rose on her forehead, the corners of Sylvania’s lips rose to the point of creeping up.

The eyes that can be seen through the scattered hair, the glare of the eyes, and the bulging veins.

The great sage of insanity, who reminds us of death just by looking at it, smiles and looks at the wall and talks.

“──What is here?”

“Everyone get down!!!”

– Bang!!

Before Sylvania could take any action, I first raised my magic power and poured Lieutenant’s magic ‘Single Point Explosion’ towards the entrance.

There was an aftermath that other students were involved in the magic because it was used too close, but there was no time to worry about that. If you stand still, you are sure to die.

“Ahhh!!”

Ayla screamed as she wrapped her hair around her head, and Taylor grabbed Ayla’s shoulders tightly.

All the other students took a defensive stance and prepared themselves for being caught up in the explosion, but the aftermath of the explosion did not spread.

– Whoa, whoa!

The explosion that I had manifested in an instant was engulfed in the constellation magic and disappeared. It literally disappeared, as if it had been sucked into a black hole.

High Aspect Magic ‘Extinction’.

From noblemtl.com

Magic that turns existence itself into something that did not exist in the world, whatever it is that contains magical power.

Characteristics of Aspect Magic are that it has no compatibility, cannot be dealt with, and there is virtually no way to neutralize its power.

According to the laws of the world, this huge heat and explosion should blow away the entire surroundings, but my power, consumed by the magical power of the Sylvania Aspect, had no effect.

However, it definitely exploded around the door. Sylvania has provided an entrance to enter. Anyway, he broke it with his magic and came in.

“Here you go.”

The students who had been hiding in the furnishing room all took a step back, swallowing their breath.

“You guys… these sly foxes are children who have enough to hide. Just in case you don’t know… Shall we remove the ‘variable’ as well?”

The amount of magical power fluctuating around Sylvania was already not at a normal level.

Does the rising corner of the mouth feel a sense of ecstasy or absurdity?

Before Sylvania took any other action, I quickly gathered my magic power and realized the ‘one-point explosion’ again.

However, this time the magical energy is directed to the opposite inner wall.

– Kwaang!!!

When the opposite direction was broken, a huge passage leading to the outside was opened. Her collar fluttered in an instant at the rushing draft.

“Everyone jump!”

I screamed at the students, and picked up the dirtiest Taylor’s collar. Taylor frowned at the pain from the wound, but I didn’t care and threw him into the hole in the exterior wall.

4 stories high It’s high enough that it wouldn’t be strange even if it was seriously injured, but I realized the wind magic and somehow landed Taily.

The students who saw the scene all screamed and jumped off.

The fear of death makes people hesitate. Jumping from the height of the fourth floor is not an easy task, but the fear of Sylvania that is just around the corner is even more terrifying.

The students who jumped while implementing the wind magic each rolled on the floor several times and got hurt, but their lives were not affected.

“…”

Of course, Sylvania did not stand still until all the students had escaped. Just by swiping his arm, a wave of magical power filled the entire furnishing room.

While protecting Ayla, who had not yet escaped, I ran down the hole in the outer wall at the same time.

– Kwaang!!!!!!

A huge explosion erupted centered around the furnishings room where everyone had been before.

In reality, it took Sylvania less than a second to unleash her magic.

However, it was too powerful to be a magic that only took that much time to manifest.

The entire 4th floor of the Trix Hall exploded. After a huge explosion engulfed the area once more, the wreckage of the exploded building poured down into the front yard of the Trix Pavilion.

– Bang! Kwagwang!

“Ahhh!”

A few students were hit by the rubble and suffered serious injuries, but most managed to dodge or block it somehow.

Then, they spread out in the front yard of the Trix Hall, looking up at the coming disaster.

The shattered Trix Hall.

Numerous debris floating in the air engulfed in the magic of Sylvania.

Numerous magic circles are embroidered in the sky. Most of them are Velbrok’s magic circles from which monsters are coming out.

Standing on the 4th floor of the Trix Building, which is no longer any different from the rooftop, between the sound of battles and explosions that spread throughout the school… Sylvania looks down on the world.

*“f**k!”

“help me…! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die…!”

“Run away! Everyone run away! If you stay here, everyone will die!”

All the students who ran out of the furnishing room fled along the road down the hill. Some sprinted, while others limped, trying to get out of here.

You have to run away while injured, but if you run into a monster, you will die. Rather than running away from each other in a different direction, the odds of survival will increase if you run away together.

I wanted to let you know, but I couldn’t because of the chaos.

In the end, the students all ran in different directions without coming to their senses.

“Ahhh…! Me, that…!”

Tyley stood up, clutching the wound tightly, and looked up at the Trix Pavilion.

You can tell by pretending not to be an idiot.

That’s… not an opponent you can win. It’s something you have to run away from.

But Taylor McLaugh drew his sword. Even though it is full of wounds, it tries to face the opponent by raising its trembling body.

In the first place, there is no option for that boy to run away. No matter what kind of ordeal comes, we will only face it with all our might.

Courage and Manyong are a single sheet of paper. It’s not up to me to know that someone else gets killed like that, but I had to save at least Taylor.

I drew out the magic of my entire body and summoned Merylda once more. Summoning high-ranking spirits, which consumes a lot of magical power once at a time, gradually begins to put a strain on the body, but it was not the time to be concerned about that.

– Whoa, whoa, whoa!

However, although the magic power has been raised, Merylda doesn’t feel accepted at all.

Frowning my brow, I looked at the figure of Merylda that was hard to embody.

It doesn’t even have the shape of a wolf. As usual, she looks up at the Trix tube in the form of a human with her white hair neatly trimmed and turned back.

“Hey, Merylda!”

I got up quickly and ran to Merylda. He grabbed Merylda’s shoulders in human form and spoke while making eye contact.

“Get your mind right! If you are careless for even one moment, everyone will die!”

[Uh, uh… but… that’s… ]

He knew that Merylda and Sylvania were very close friends. No matter how long he has lived, he is a spirit that takes it easy in everything he does and contemplates everything… But when he comes to this kind of situation, he panics.

However, even the time to waste in panic is not worth it.

“Listen, Merylda. Do you see me… keeping my sanity?”

I squeezed Merylda’s shoulders tightly, breathing in and calming her down.

Then he lifts his head and looks at the Trix Hall. Watching the students run away… he twists his lips and smiles.

If you run away in a state of confusion like that, you will only run into a monster and die.

Some of the students who try to fight without running away are only those who are not even opponents.

[I want to share a story. ]

Then, in a slightly calmer tone, Merylda barely spoke.

[What happened… you don’t have to listen…]

From noblemtl.com

Merylda’s own words make sense.

At least, Merylda is spherical with that mad wizard. There is a possibility that the situation can be improved even a little bit by telling the story using Merylda.

However, even in this situation, Sylvania, standing on the roof of the Trix Hall… doesn’t seem to recognize Merylda.

It is said that they were very close friends, but no matter how different they were, there was no way that they could not have felt Merylda’s magical powers.

An ominous feeling flows.

I frowned again, pressing on Merylda’s shoulder and talking.

“If you move hastily, you will be hit by a blow. You can tell by pretending that you are an opponent with that kind of ability.”

Aside from whether or not Merylda is recognizable, he must remain ready to respond to sudden movements.

From noblemtl.com

Merylda made eye contact with me for a moment, then slowly closed and opened it and nodded. It was not that Merylda’s psychology could not be understood, but it was now an emergency.

High Sage Sylvania gently lifts the gigantic staff.

A flow of magical energy that welled up toward the sky covered the skies of Aken Island. I don’t know what to do next after this. There is no prior information, and the principle of action cannot be inferred at all.

What is certain is that it cannot be left alone.

“Run away.”

I rolled up my arms and broke my wrists a few times. It doesn’t seem like it’s hurting the body yet.

Taylor pulled out her sword and looked at me with her eyes wide open.

“I beg your pardon…?”

“I’ll try to figure out how to pass the time, so let’s go down to the gallows building and find a way to solve the problem with the dragon in the sky. Gather all your comrades and try to figure out a way.”

“That… that wizard… how… are you going to do it…? Is there a way?”

“There is no way that comes to mind right now.”

It is not an opponent that can be defeated alone.

I’m not sure if I’ll be able to face it even if I gather all my power in this Aken Island as much as possible.

However, what is certain is that anything is possible once Taylor has subjugated Velbrok.

The fortunate thing is that… Velbrok hasn’t completely escaped the seal yet.

I don’t know how Velbrok is still struggling to break the seal in a situation where Sylvania is going crazy like that, but… maybe he can try something now.

Taylor possesses the power of swordsmanship that can cut through Velbrok’s heart.

At least if my calculations are correct… the specs at this point alone could cut the heart of Velbrok.

It is only difficult to reach the heart of Velbrok by breaking many patterns. If the seal has not been completely released yet… it will work somehow.

In the meantime, I somehow solve Sylvania.

how? If you ask me, of course I don’t know how.

From here on, all the stages I know of have ended.

All the journeys recorded in ＜Sylvania’s Failed Sword Castle> are finally completed with this Velbrok subjugation.

I don’t know about the story after that. You may not know why the Great Sage Sylvania has descended here. This is an unknown area where nothing is known about it.

-Actually, it’s strange to know.

As with most things in life… life is full of unknown territory.

While living at this Sylvania Academy, knowing all the love affair that would have flowed in the first place, knowing in advance a lot of information that ordinary people could not know…

The imminent crisis must be resolved solely with my own strength and ability. No matter how much of a wall it is, you have to break through it to survive.

Originally, life is a series of struggles against the unknown.

Get used to life in which you have known and dealt with all future trends for the past few years, so you must not forget the essence of it.

“Find out as many of your party as possible, and go subjugate Velbrok.”

“Ed Roth Taylor…”

Taylor slowed down her sword for a moment, looked at me with her arms rolled up, and spoke.

“No. This isn’t something you can handle on your own. I was full of bad ties with you, but… it’s not like I’m not.”

“Don’t talk long and go. I don’t have time to say it many times.”

Naturally, the ordeal swordsman, Taylor McLaugh, does not run away from this situation.

So… I looked at Isla, not him.

I explained most of the situation to Ayla. As I glared at him, Isla shut her eyes tightly and opened her eyes, then grabbed Taylor’s arm and pulled her away.

“Tailey! You have to go to Haksa-dong right now!”

“Ah, Ayla..!”

“hurry! The only person who can fight Velbroque… is you…!”

“Anyway, do you mean to leave me alone to deal with such a monster? Even if you are an enemy, I cannot let you die!”

“I’m not letting you die, Taylor!”

Ayla grabbed Taylor’s collar and pulled her closer.

“Ed-senpai is also struggling to survive! You need to know that!”

“What…?”

“Don’t be silly… you have to go quickly! I don’t have much time!”

As Ayla tried to grab and drag Taylor so far, Taylor looked at me and Ayla alternately. No matter how close a human being, I understand the character of Taylor, who can’t run away from death.

However, it is now time to run away. He is a person who has to go to subjugate Velbrok by healing and reorganizing his wounds.

The desire to meddle in the process was like a chimney, but for now, it should be meaningful to send it out alive.

From noblemtl.com

Magical energy radiates from all over the body.

As I pulled out all the tech gadgets I had, I no longer paid attention to Taylor by gesturing a few times as if to chase him away.

“…”

Taylor looked at me with a look of incomprehension, then clenched her teeth and ran down the road.

Ayla also nodded and ran towards the faculty building, leading Taylor.

One thing is for sure… Once Ayla is attached, at least Taylor won’t get lost. That’s the comforting part.

I put my palms on my face and took a deep breath while washing my face. And as it was, she swept up her bangs, tightened her forehead, and looked up at the Trix tube.

Was it impressive to see everyone running away and staring at him alone without losing his will?

The great sage Sylvania swung down her staff, raising an enormous amount of magical power.

The chances of victory were infinitely close to zero.

Still, I stood up straight with my legs firmly planted on the ground.

because you have to fight it.

The reason was enough.
