How to Survive at the Academy chapter 24

How to Survive at the Academy 24

Glaskan subjugation (4)

– ‘One day, please save Yenika.’

What immediately comes to mind is a message from a high-ranking wind spirit who guarded the forest.

If you suddenly get such a message, you can’t help but want to throw out various counter-questions.

How do you know what will happen to Yenika? You probably don’t have the same knowledge about the flow of the story as I do.

Also, what do you mean by asking for help?

Are you saying that you are going to run into the student center and kill Velosper while throwing everything and sacrificing yourself, whether it’s the current of the future, the bottom line, or the Nabal? Do you think it would be possible for now?

Or is it to read all his thoughts in advance so that Yenika’s steps do not flow according to the set flow, and to create an environment so that Yenika can only live a happy life by controlling all variables as if she were a god? There are degrees of unreasonable demands.

Merylda isn’t stupid either.

Lucy Meryl, who can speak right away, is right next to her, and there must be a reason why she dared to deliver such a message to me.

As he was the guy who watched my every move living in the forest, he must have said it after his own judgment.

Unfortunately, it is not easy to infer the intention right now and it is not meaningful.

There are a lot of things that need to be addressed. There was no way there was any mind left to care about the side branches.

There are so many difficult things in the world, there is no need to challenge the impossible.

From noblemtl.com

Most people who lose their brains trying to do the impossible are because they don’t know that it’s impossible.

From my point of view, having cleared ‘Sylvania’s Failing Swordsmanship’ countless times, estimating the abilities of various characters and enemies, and playing concept games in this and that way, trying to defeat Tarkan now is literally impossible. It’s a challenge to the realm.

Sylvania’s Failed Sword Castle Act 1 final chapter, the 3rd named boss. High Fire Spirit Tarkan.

Although it is a high-ranking spirit that boasts overwhelming specifications by itself, Velosper’s Berserk buff has been applied, and its stature itself is infinitely superior to magic. The hard shell that wraps around the body negates the power of almost all magic-based attacks that touch the surface. However, if you ask if the knife is properly pierced, you can only say that it is not so, and that it is absurd.

Anyone who has played anything for a while will notice intuitively at this point. It’s not just a boss made to break through with specs or strategies.

After all, the essence of Tarkan is the event boss. It was designed to lead the situation to the flow that induces the use of ‘Elemental Slash’, which Taylor had learned just before, and was realized by the necessity of the scenario.

Gnome’s games lead to a flow where, in any case, when new technologies, functions, or elements are added, it is inevitable to use them in the scenario. Well, it’s funny that you added a feature and didn’t introduce it, but,

As a result, you have to open a locked door without a key.

Of course, that is impossible.

“What is in it?”

“It’s nothing. It’s not really necessary, but it’s good to have.”

“Is that so?”

Seeing the leather bag he had brought out of the reading room, Ziggs asked, but he didn’t have time to answer, so he just put it in his arms and crossed the hallway.

If it is necessary to make the impossible possible, the methodology should also not be searched for in the normal realm. If you cannot open the locked door, you must enter through the back door.

Isn’t it a situation where there was a twist in the scenario that was smoothly following the flow? I have to put aside the stance of stably following a set flow and only skipping parts that are beneficial to me for a while.

Now, it is a situation in which the flow of the scenario that has come out of the love affair has to be restored to its original state.

If we had enough time, we could have solved it in a simpler way. As much as all the upbringing elements that exist in Sylvania’s failing sword castle, I’m trying to figure it out, because as time goes on, I’m on my side.

However, if the current situation is like this, we have to solve it with the resources we have now. The methodology inevitably leads to ‘information superiority’, a privilege in this world that only I am enjoying.

Fortunately, I came up with a good way.

It was absurd, but it was the surest way.

*

“Forgive me for being late. I will definitely pay for my sins.”

“That’s Okay. If I had Ziggs, I would have been defeated.”

The time to face the subjugation team was earlier than expected.

It is not possible to carry the Elcar into the Student Union, so I had to leave the Elcar at the garrison in the Student Square in front of it. He rushed to the city because he was busy, but surprisingly, all the members of the subjugation team returned to the student plaza.

The condition was not a word.

“Fortunately, the retreat was successful, but…”

Princess Penia looked up at the vast night sky. The color of the Glaskan summoning circle was already completely dark red, so it would not be strange if the summoning ceremony was completed immediately.

The barrier ceremony covering the gallows building was also intact, so it seemed difficult to expect help from outside.

“If you have come this far, you will have to re-enter whether it is killed or cooked.”

Time is not an ally. Even after seeing that summoning ceremony unfolding in the sky, no one would say that they should wait for external aid any longer. It’s a busy situation, and I wasted precious time even retreating after being defeated once.

I looked around. How far has it progressed, where has it been blocked, and how much damage has been done?

The members gathered in the student plaza garrison are truly dazzling. Until the end of the scenario, the main characters who perform all kinds of roles in their places are gathered in a comprehensive gift set.

Failing Swordsman Taylor, Companion Ayla, Princess Fenia, Princess of Charity, Golden Daughter Lortel, Planting Spear Ziggs, Guard Captain Claire, Grim Clevius, Nosy Elvira…

Each of them had large and small scratches, and when they reached the escort captain Claire, one leg was completely burned and burned. That’s mediocre. Power is no longer meaningful.

In addition, Clevius had a splint on one of his arms. It looks like a fracture. The value of this side as an electric power has also been greatly diminished.

Anyway, most importantly, Taylor’s condition seems to be fine. I confirmed that fact and passed the stage of thinking as a judgment on the progress of the scenario.

At that moment, Claire barely made an opinion.

“If you plan to re-enter, I think it would be better to gather volunteers from among general students and re-enter. If you have pain in your legs too…”

“All right, Claire. You rest in your garrison.”

At that, Claire shook her head.

“Princess Penny. If you really care about me, take my orders.”

“You can’t even walk properly, Claire. I also… have a heart.”

It can be inferred from the tone. The reason a powerful person like the captain of the bodyguard, Claire, suffered such serious injuries is probably because he surrounded Princess Phenia. Although she tightly shut her lips and spoke in a resolute voice, Princess Fenia’s heart must already be full.

Still, it’s definitely Penia’s not to show weakness. However, just because you are strong-minded does not mean that you can solve the crisis you are facing. It is not a hard heart that solves a crisis, but a practical ability.

I lifted my head and looked at the surroundings.

Centering on the Student Square, there are Neris Hall, Obel Hall, and Student Union Hall.

The three buildings, of which the Glockt Hall, have been completely demolished. This is the trace of entering the 2nd phase and catching the Lieutenant Spirit in the main hall of the Gloct Hall. And the entrance to the nail tube was definitely open, probably because it seemed that they had even caught the spirit beast Altar that blocked the entrance to the nail tube.

Again, as expected. How did they break through until Phase 2, but the subjugation team was defeated by Tarkan in Phase 3 once.

Fortunately, the retreat seems to have been successful, but too much precious time was wasted in the process, and the captain of the escort, Claire, lost important power. It must be said that Clevius, the head of the first-year combat team, also lost more than half of his abilities.

There was no time, and the power was drained. It seems that the summoning team will be completed at any moment in anticipation of external aid. I can’t stand still, but I’m not sure that I’ll be able to win if I re-enter right away.

I could see Princess Fenia clenching her teeth tightly. In any case, I am now in command of this garrison. Something had to be done.

“Let’s divide the subjugation team in two.”

There, after I had quickly grasped the situation, I immediately began to speak.

The intervention of an outsider appeared unexpectedly. The atmosphere of the garrison, which had become dark as the first-year ace members all returned from injuries, subsided once more there.

“Looking at the status of the summoning ceremony, it will be completed very soon. I don’t have time to go grab a takan.”

“What is it, Ed Rothtailer?”

The answer returned to the gloomy Clevius. While frowned at the pain of the fracture, he continued to talk.

“Hey, it’s a joke right now…”

“You should hear the story first. Cleviers.”

What Clevius stopped before he could say anything was the ‘Spear of Plants Jigs’.

Everyone’s eyes widened at that fact. Before leaving the garrison, Ziggs, who had been talking about eating Ed Roth Taylor, seemed to feel uncomfortable with the change in his attitude.

What happened in the student library? Of course, there was no time to worry about such a good side branch now.

“High Fire Spirit Tarkan relies on hearing and touch rather than sight to determine the surrounding terrain and the location of enemies, so talking loudly is enough to lure him in. It’s better for one team to get into the battlefield while one team pulls out Takan.”

“Sir Ed. That’s because I haven’t actually dealt with Tarkan before.”

This time, Lortel raised the objection. She was a girl with a history of one-on-one encounters with Takan in joint combat training.

“It’s difficult to think of it as the same as it was during the joint combat practice.”

“know. Velosper must have put the Berserk magic on it. I confirmed that enough while suppressing the lower spirits.”

“Attract attention, buy time. I’m not a match for that concept. I’m just glad I didn’t fall out or lose my life in one blow. It was pure luck that we were able to retreat.”

At Lortel’s calm explanation of reality, I questioned to confirm.

“Did he escape through the crack in the pillar?”

“…”

how did you know that

They looked at me with those eyes, but now I don’t have time to explain them.

It is not very comfortable to have to intervene in the scenario in the first place. If it wasn’t for the incident that went wrong in ‘Affair’, there would be no need to wear a katabuta in the middle of a garrison filled with such important characters.

I don’t do things that disrupt the flow of love affairs and waste my information superiority.

It is time to put a stop to such a policy for now.

– ‘※ There are three cutscenes in which the pillars of the corridor collapse. If you fall on a pillar, you will die instantly, so make sure to avoid it.’

If you have the ‘Elemental Slash’ skill, defeating Takan itself is not difficult. So, unless you have a lot of experience in playing, there are some facts you don’t know very well.

The huge stone pillars at the three corners of the nail hall corridor, the takan, can be well guided and laid down to create a momentary gap.

“You were lucky.”

Luckily, one of the stone pillars was laid with a takan, which allowed him to escape. It must have been heaven’s help.

It’s only the first time Takan is hit by a pole. After that, the poles are swept away with their tails, so you can’t hope for such a lucky surprise twice.

“I’m not going to ask for details. Sir Ed. Anyway, the proposal suggested by senior is unrealistic. It was an opponent who had no choice but to attack together, and even split his power in half. It might take a while, but it won’t be significant.”

Lortel’s opinion is always realistic and reasonable. That outstanding coolness was the biggest reason that put the girl in the position she is today.

“There is a greater chance that the subjugation squad in charge of Tarkan will be suppressed at once, rather than taking time. If that takan joins the training camp, we may face the worst of having to deal with both Velosper and Takan at the same time.”

All of these stories can be condensed into one sentence:

“The risk is too great.”

But it wasn’t that I didn’t have anything to say.

“It is only possible to measure the size of the risk when there are other alternatives. Lortel.”

Perhaps it was impossible to refute those words, for a moment, Lortel kept her mouth shut. He rolled his eyes to see if there was anything else to refute, but Lortel couldn’t think of any other way to deal with the situation.

“You must not forget what your most important goal is at this point. Princess Penny. Isn’t it to stop Yenica, who was ruled by Velosper?”

Silence again. You probably wouldn’t want to sympathize with the speaker as much as Ed Roth-Taylor, but he’s not saying a single word that’s wrong.

“Takan does not need to be suppressed. Skip Takan and somehow make it to the practice range and stop Yenika. A member like this would be enough to subdue Velosper. No, I have to.”

Inability to overpower Takan with these golden members is ultimately the key to inferiority in superiority.

The final battle phase with Velosper and Yenica could be resolved even if it was a subjugation squad with an incomplete power. The key is Taylor’s swordsmanship ceremony. You just need people who can support it.

“Ed Roth Taylor.”

The two eyes of Princess Fenia turned to me. Molgol is not good at all.

All kinds of variables and circumstances must have pushed her into a corner.

The hem of her dress, which had always been shiny, as if she had rolled on the dirt once, was dirty and torn here and there. The ends of her silky hair are scorched by Tarkan’s flames. It is a sign of a gruesome battle.

She, who must be in a corner both physically and mentally, looks directly into my eyes once again.

“Again… it’s you…”

“Since time is running out, I won’t say much.”

The surrounding area is already filled with the whispers of the whispering students. Who is this guy, he talks like that, is it crazy to follow Ed Roth-Taylor’s opinion, or do we all want to die together? These are stories that don’t even need to be recounted.

“I am not lying.”

However, they are not the final decision makers. There is only one person who has the qualifications of a monarch in charge of this improvised garrison.

Princess Penia looked at me for such a long time… She seemed to be in contemplation for a moment, then nodded her head.

“In any case, there is nothing wrong with what you say.”

judgment made calmly.

“Princess Phenia! Are you going to follow his opinion now? That person is Ed Rothtailer!”

“Be quiet, Claire. I’m not following Ed Roth-Taylor’s opinion right now, I’m following the ‘reasonable opinion’. He has a sufficiently valid opinion.”

After making the final decision, Princess Penia spoke to the members around the garrison.

“You can’t beat Takan at this point. What is certain, though, is that if you defeat the Elementalist Yenika, Takan will be incapacitated as well. But… there is something that must be decided,”

“Who will stop Tarkan?”

At the words of Ziggs that pierced the core, there was a moment of silence among the members.

“Ahaha… that’s just choosing a person who wants to commit suicide.”

“Be careful, Elvira.”

“Oops, I’m sorry. Princess.”

The ‘Nosy Elvira’, who stumbles even in a crippled state, quickly shut her mouth at the princess’s rumors.

“Being on either side doesn’t make it particularly safer. The opponents are high-ranking dark spirits and high-ranking fire spirits.”

Yes.

From their point of view, there is no guarantee that it will be any safer if they enter the battle training ground without blocking Takan.

In fact, from my point of view, who knows everything, Takan is more dangerous.

The enemy Tarkan, which was prepared to teach Taylor how to use ‘Elemental Slash’, appeared with an overwhelming superiority in nature.

However, the high dark spirit Velosper is just a ‘strong enemy’.

It is not an enemy that must be dealt with depending on a specific ‘strategy’, but is a standard final boss that you deal with by using your abilities and strategies appropriately.

Under the current circumstances, the existence of Tarkan is infinitely absurd. As mentioned above, it is a lock that must be opened without a key.

However, Velosper is just a complicated labyrinth, if you dare to compare it… With this many members, if you work hard enough, you can destroy it.

“But… I… I don’t want to deal with that fire lizard!”

Clevius, who had a cowardly temperament, sighed like that.

“I…! I! Put me in the entry group of the training camp! I’d rather go there! It is more important to subdue Yenika-senpai!”

Yes. At this point, the biggest difference between Tarkan and Velosper is the sense of fear that touches the skin.

Tension spread among the comrades. The princess couldn’t stop Clevius’ ominous words right away. It was because the princess also immediately realized the fear she felt when she faced Takan again.

An unknown target that has not yet been directly confronted, and an opponent who has actually been defeated in the face of it once.

At this point, it was obvious that the psychological horror of Tarkan would be much stronger.

High-ranking fire spirit Tarkan with Velosper’s Berserk buff. The incarnation of fear that roars, swings its tail, smashes the pillars of the corridor, spit fire, and run wild… It’s natural that you don’t want to face it again.

No one volunteered for Tarkan’s subjugation group.

Tension swelled between the gang. Someone has to take the place.

“I will stay.”

The first to raise a hand was Taylor McLaugher.

“Don’t be stupid.”

I shrugged off Taylor’s comment without a second’s pause.

“I beg your pardon..?”

There is still hostility in Taylor’s eyes looking at me. it’s bound to be

“You are dead now, and even when you wake up, you cannot deal with that lizard. I can’t last even a minute.”

“…there is no guarantee that it will be possible with anyone else. If I had to choose a discard horse anyway, it would make sense for me to be.”

Taylor looked around. If you look at the faces of the members sitting around the center of the student plaza garrison, they are all dazzling together. It’s not common to see members who say they’re nanda long sitting around and discussing opinions.

There was only one failing crisis student there. It is like a goose caught among a flock of swans.

He must have been trained quite a bit now, but it wouldn’t be enough to suppress the overwhelming difference in specifications.

“Hey, my feet are fast. I don’t know how long I’ll be able to run away, but if I have to make a sacrifice, I’m doing it right.”

“You are doing something wrong. Now we are not choosing a scapegoat.”

I said that and grabbed Taylor’s shoulder and turned it around. After giving her back as she is, Taylor is shoved away by me and gets caught up in the crowd again.

“Don’t touch me, come in. You are the unconditional entry group to the training camp.”

And then, I looked straight at Princess Fenia.

“I have a secret. We can keep Tarkan at his feet until the main force defeats Yenika.”

“what is that?”

“Would you like to have time to explain that…? In other words, it is very long.”

Looking up at the sky, the color of the Glaskan summoning ceremony doesn’t seem to change any more. It was completely dyed dark red, and it seemed like it would spit out a glass can that was like a disaster at any moment.

“There is no need to divide the subjugation team in half. Just give me two. One in charge of vanguard, one in charge of firepower.”

After talking up to that point, I shut my mouth.

“Uh… what? Ed Roth Taylor Follow you and stay with Tarkan?! Where in the world is such a crazy person? I’d rather pray to God! Rather than trust you and follow you…! I’ll just run away to the outskirts of the barrier!”

“The vanguard can be that Clevius who is making a lot of noise right now.”

“What? why! why me! why! Sorry! It’s my fault! I don’t want to die!”

“Uh… that’s… noisy! Stupid Clevius!”

Elvira, the unheard of nosy, screamed, took the cloth used to seal the alchemy reagent and shoved it into the mouth of the injured Clevius. Clevius only groaned and screamed intermittently.

“The firepower is… Lortel. you remain.”

“Me?”

Golden daughter Lortel looked at me with a surprised face.

“I don’t know if you know, but I have a record of losing against Takan without the Berserk spell?”

“Does that mean anything? No one can beat Takan one-on-one at this point.”

“It’s like that, but…”

Lortel said with a smile.

“I am a person who knows that my life is precious. In this situation, wouldn’t it be natural to politely decline whoever it is? Not even that stupid Clevius.”

It seemed that Clevius’ cries could be heard, but none of the subjugation crew paid any attention.

“okay. But the truth is, your opinion doesn’t really matter.”

“…and so is it.”

Lortel admitted it coolly. At this point, there is only one person who can decide all the actions of the subjugation group.

I turned my head. There is a girl who has the real power to decide everyone’s course, Fenia Elias Chloel.

“Make a decision.”

“You want me to trust you?”

“Are there any other alternatives?”

All eyes around him were already completely focused. The opinions of the students guarding the garrison were usually skeptical. Ed Roth Taylor’s notoriety. A spy you don’t know anymore. There is no conscience to expect a favorable response.

“Princess! no! no! Anyway, never! You must not trust such a person and entrust the work!”

The gloomy Clevius spit out the cloth and shouted in opposition.

“I think it’s worth a walk. If there is no other alternative, let’s follow Ed’s opinion. Because that’s the only option.”

The spear jigs of vegetation were relatively favorable to me,

“Yeah, maybe it’s better to follow that opinion. I don’t know anything else. Ahaha.”

Nosy Elvira seems to agree with me, but if you look closely, it’s a good stance.

“I… I won’t say anything.”

Golden’s daughter Lortel is quietly observing the situation.

“…”

Taylor was silent about the complexities of her thoughts.

Princess Fenia quietly closed her eyes in the center of it.

Figure out what is the right path in the scattered opinions. You have to carefully figure out who to believe in and whom to reject.

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally opened my eyes…

“There are conditions. It might be a little difficult.”

Without further ado, it was to signal the start of the plan.

“Don’t die anyway. never.”

*

The subjugation squad was divided into two groups.

A team in charge of Tarkan consisting of me, Clevis, and Lortel.

And Yenica’s suppression group, which is made up of the rest of the members.

There is no particular reason for choosing Clevius and Lortel. One in charge of the vanguard and one in charge of firepower were needed.

The guys who could take charge of the vanguard in the subjugation squad were Taylor, Clevius, Ziggs, and Claire.

Taylor went out of business, and Claire was seriously injured. In the end, it is either Ziggs or Clevius, but it is better to attach the stronger Ziggs to the Yenica suppression team, which is the core of the subjugation.

Since I only need an avant-garde to attract attention, there was no need to ask for a strong avant-garde, so I pulled out the wounded Clevius.

Among the remaining people, Fenia, Lortel, and Elvira are capable of firepower. Ayla is still weak enough to be in charge of firepower.

Princess Penia is out of the question. She is in charge of building a defensive structure that blocks Velosper’s attack magic in the final battle, so she should be sent to the Yenika Subjugation Team.

All that’s left is Elvira and Lortel. Among them, the reason why I ended up picking up Lortel is not that great. As I said before, Lortel at the time of Act 1 is a bad ending maker. There was no need to attach it to Taylor, so I just brought it.

As a result, the Yenika suppression squads were Taylor, Fenia, Ziggs, Elvira, and Ayla.

Compared to ‘Affair’, the composition is infinitely simple, but in theory, if Taylor’s swordsmanship is expressed, it can definitely win.

“Isn’t it a bit daunting…”

Worrying is unavoidable. At this point, I infer the character’s abilities and think about the roles as best as possible, and I think I made the best allocation… But there are definitely more unsettling parts compared to the love affair.

If you can’t subdue Yenika with that member, your head hurts even more from there. Well, first of all, you just have to trust it. The urgent thing right now is Takan.

“So, Ed-senpai. The situation is set up the way you wanted it.”

The time is late in the morning. The time of sunrise is slowly approaching. The time limit is also in sight.

The location is the entrance facing the student union hall. Neris and Obel were also visible on either side.

“shit! Why do I have to be here? Oh God! Please, let me spare my life!”

Clevius had a face almost crying. Well, even if it looks like that, he is a guy who does it when he does it. He’s like a mosquito because he buzzes loudly, but one role as a bait is amazing.

From noblemtl.com

Me, Lortel, and Clevius stood side by side and looked at the open entrance to the nail salon. As soon as you enter, the battle of the nail hall corridor begins.

When Takan is pulled out, the Tayenika suppression team enters the gap and charges to the battle training ground, entering the final battle as it is.

Do you want to play Takan and Velosper at the same time? Being involved in this kind of thing, I have had all sorts of bizarre experiences.

“Isn’t it time for you to slowly tell me? How are you going to waste time against that fire lizard?”

“I can’t pull it, time.”

“….yes?”

Lortel looked at me with absurd eyes. Clevius was also startled by the words.

“What, what? What are you talking about!”

“It’s death by just touching it, and the speed is ridiculously fast, and how do you waste time when even a pillar collapses in a small space? Even if I shyly tried to run away, I couldn’t save even five minutes.”

“That’s… it’s something you can’t easily pass up. Sir Ed. We risked our lives.”

“To put it in reverse, it’s a story that can take five minutes or so. ”

As soon as I got dirty, I took off my dirty school uniform coat and rolled up my arms.

“You have to think about catching, not about running away.”

At those words, Clevius and Lortel were stunned. Even so, Clevius, it’s the first time I’ve seen Lortel, who always had a cold face, look confused. It’s not a common sight, but it’s funny to see it again.

“Just do what you say. If everything goes according to plan, we will win.”

I waved my arms roughly and signaled to the Yenica Overlord. It was a signal to enter.
