Student Council President Election (7)
– Kwaang!
The explosion sound was heard at the end of the battle with Elvira.
“What, what…?”
Student Dalian facility in the basement of Ophelis Hall.
Freshman head Wade Callamore, who had been challenging each department head with enthusiasm, was full of energy.
Second-year Combat Team Chief Clevius Nortondale declared abstention as soon as he appeared at the dungeon.
Elvira, the head of the Alchemy Department, has just admitted defeat with all the reagent bottles destroyed by Wade’s sword.
It was the moment when the onlookers gathered in the basement of the Ophelis Hall shouted cheers.
Except for Lucy, who is treated as an out-of-discipline at all, if you defeat Ziggs Eiffelstein, who is the second-ranking second-year magician, then it’s the third year’s turn.
“Good job, Elvira-senpai.”
“huh.”
Elvira, who was collecting reagent bottles in the corner of the rosary, snorted.
“The momentum is rising.”
“It was a good match.”
“What a good match. It’s obvious that I’m going to have a good feeling by beating the senior in the upper grades.”
“Haha, I’m human too…”
Elvira is not very good at combat. In the first place, the study of alchemy itself is not a science specialized in combat.
However, when it comes to the senior year, the combat field itself is usually at a different level. You can see just how powerful Wade’s force is.
“Anyway, next time we just need to beat Jigs-senpai.”
What an arrogant statement this is. Nevertheless, Wade was convinced that he would actually do it, and the onlookers who saw it could not deny it.
Wade’s swordsmanship is definitely not at the level of a freshman. There was a reason why he overtook Joseph of the Ministry of Magic and Claude of the Alchemy Department to occupy the first-year senior position.
Ziggs, who had been leaning against the wall with his arms crossed in the corner of the dinning room, watching the dignitary, shrugged his shoulders.
Anyway, it’s too late tonight. Gradually, the time for the match had passed, so the match between Wade and Ziggs had to be promised.
The match between Ziggs and Wade was the match that the students who came to see most wanted to see. Thinking that the main event would be postponed, there was a feeling of regret among the students.
“By the way, what the hell is that sound and vibration? What happened when there was a thunderstorm outside?”
“Well. gotta go up first. It’s time to close the underground smithy as well. Soon the maids will come to tell you to empty it.”
– Kwaang!
Unsurprisingly, before Ziggs could even finish his words, two of the last maids sprinted into the dungeon door.
As if they had never expected to appear with such an abundance of presence, Ziggs and Wade were just staring at the dung beetle door.
“You must evacuate now! Outside… something bad is happening…!”
‘It’s not a good thing’. What the hell is it that you talked so much?
Jiggs furrowed his brow, lifted the wall from his back and stood up.
“It’s not good, what is it?”
“That… that… while evacuating…”
All the students in the dungeon nodded with bewildered faces.
The party followed the maid who rushed up as it was and climbed to the ground floor. And as he passed through the main hall and entered the hallway, Ziggs stuck his tongue out at the sight he saw out the window.
The square is full of ‘statues’.
However, if you look closely, it is not a statue. They are the maids of the hardened Ophelis Hall.
Time-based Aspect Magic. ‘Time Prison’.
It is a time-based Aspect Magic that can only be dealt with by highly trained Aspect Magic.
It’s hard to believe, but there are geniuses in the world who can easily imitate the Aspect Magic that someone has devoted their entire life to.
The number of maids filling the square in the time that has stopped as it is, one by one, approaching dozens of people.
Among them, Bell Maia, the chief maid who oversees the maids of the Ophelis Hall, is also seen.
“I… what’s going on…!”
Wade shouted. Looking up at the raining sky, a huge magical sphere fills the sky above the Ophelis Hall.
High-ranking fire magic ‘Burning Ball’.
It is the most famous high-ranking magic in the field of pure fire magic, which can burn an entire area with only pure firepower.
Less than five minutes had passed since the first explosion was heard. What had happened during those five minutes could not be inferred from the sight alone.
the center of the square. There is a girl standing with a deaf expression with her hat pressed tight. a familiar face
“Lucy… Mairyl…?”
Are you out of your mind?
Even Lucy, who is treated like a geek among geeks, is by no means a person who would do such crazy things.
However, from the sight alone, it seems that Lucy will destroy the entire Ophelis Hall at any moment.
There are still students inside, but if you really hit that level of magic, a catastrophe will happen.
“The news is that Master Ed Roth Taylor, a third year at the Ministry of Magic, has passed away.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“At least that’s what Miss Lucy said.”
The maid quickly led the students and ran along the hallway leading to the back of the hall on the first floor. They plan to evacuate everyone through the back door.
Still, the explanation of the situation did not stop.
“Right now, both the head of the maid and the high-ranking maids are suffering, so we are in a very confused state. First of all, the active maids are moving in the direction of evacuating the students. You have to move fast!”
There were about twenty students who were visiting Dalian. For the maid, leading all these students to an evacuation was an urgent task that had to be resolved immediately.
“Ed-senpai… is he dead…?”
If you run across the hallway, you can see the scenery behind Lucy out the window. Two vassals, captured by Lucy’s telekinetic magic, were floating in the air.
“yes. I must have seen him being assassinated by the Roth Taylor family vassals.”
“If you’re a vassal of the Roth Taylor family… Then… Tanya Roth Taylor…?”
“That’s… not an area I would guess.”
The maid ran out and unlocked all the locked doors. If there were any remaining students in the room, they would take them all out.
The group of students who followed were terrified as they saw the glowing bulbs filling the sky.
“Then where is Tanya herself?”
“That… I don’t know…”
“…”
Ziggs, who was running after the maid, stopped walking. His eyes, as if asking what was going on in a busy situation, were focused on Ziggs.
“Go first.”
“Yes? Master Jigs. Now the situation is…”
“I know. Evacuate everyone at once.”
Ziggs could sense it.
If Lucy made up her mind, something like that glowing ball magic could finish the chanting in an instant and put it down.
That’s just a means of threatening to command Tanya to colonel right in front of you. On the contrary, if all the students are evacuated and if you are sure that there will be no casualties, you may actually hit the magic.
Lucy is in a state of complete loss of reason, but still does not let go of the last string.
The reason why I had to subdue the maids with the cumbersome time prison was because I didn’t want to harm their bodies. Even if the glowing ball is put down, there will be no damage to the maids whose time itself is separated.
However, destroying the entire Ophelis tube… it has to be dried anyway. No matter how careful we are, we cannot assume that there will be no casualties at all.
“I will act separately.”
“It cannot be.”
“I understand, but…”
“Two seniors in the 4th grade have already been hit.”
Ziggs heard those words and looked at the square again. Among the numerous statues, you can see Dorothy Whitepelz, a senior in the 4th grade Alchemy Department, and Tracyana Bloomriver, a senior in the Magic Department.
How long will it take for the bachelor’s staff to arrive? 10 minutes? 30 minutes?
Even if the academic staff arrived, would they be able to handle such a monster?
At least inside the Ophelis Hall, there is no one who can oppose Lucy Meirl.
If you look out the window, you can clearly see the magical figure of Lucy floating in the air.
The floating recurve bow is Ed’s. Dozens of magic arrows are loaded by Lucy. Each one is engraved with a magic circle that exerts the power of high-level magic.
The elemental laws that fill the square are equally complex, so it wouldn’t be strange if it took three days and three nights to interpret just one.
He is a genius who has been driven by the blessings of heaven. I wonder if there is someone who can stop such a monster right now.
The recklessness of the act of preventing the disaster from coming to the rose garden can be expressed with just three words.
impossible. It would be impossible to prevent such a thing.
Still, Lucy doesn’t cross the last line, so she’s not directly attacking the Ophelis Hall full of students… but if she really loses her mind and crosses the line…
“I tried to talk, but it doesn’t work. We are constantly asking for Miss Tanya to be brought in.”
“All right. Go first.”
When Ziggs said that, the maid frowned again. It was an understandable response.
“You’re too reckless, Ziggs-senpai!”
This time, Wade also stopped. Blocking the road with fear, Wade frowned and spoke.
“How are you going to stop something like that…? Just evacuate…!”
“When the time comes, I will evacuate on my own, so leave first.”
“Why really?! Master Ziggs.”
They are the maids of Ophelis, who are always polite and respectful. It’s really hard to watch them raise their voices.
It’s understandable enough. If it leads to casualties here, you may be held responsible.
So, Jiggs bowed his head with a sorry heart.
“I’m sorry.”
Having said that, he broke out of the ranks and ran out. It was obvious why he was so stubborn.
Because Ziggs couldn’t understand the situation itself…
*
– Kwaang!
As soon as they sprinted through the door, the cool, open exterior wall caught Ziggs’ eyes. The third room from the back of the 3rd floor of the Ophelis Building was Tanya Roth Taylor’s private room.
The situation was the situation, so I broke the door without knocking. It was a cute room like a girl, but it was also luxurious.
Now, the rain and wind blew through the broken outer wall and it made no sense, but at least the shape of the room remained.
Ziggs took off his clothes and looked around. The fact that the lead maid ran to the underground dungeon means that most of them had already checked all the places.
There’s no way I’m going out on a late night when it’s raining like this, so the only place Tanya can be in is my room. It was already such a horrific sight that I couldn’t even call it a room, but at least there must be a place where I can hide without being caught.
Few pieces of furniture are in good condition. After searching here and there, Ziggs opened up a large closet… and Tanya Roth-Taylor appeared inside.
“Uh… uh…”
Locked in her closet with her knees on her knees, shaking trembling… is the girl herself who is absolutely frightened. It was ridiculous that he looked more like a hamster than a human being.
“…”
“Uhhh
Ziggs turned his head again and looked towards the half-broken exterior wall. If you look straight down at the central square from here, you can see Lucy losing her mind.
It is a landscape that is terrifying. Jigs had no choice but to swallow dry saliva.
The idea of jumping straight towards Lucy here is impossible without some courage. Rather, it is closer to suicide.
Looking at Lucy’s appearance, it wouldn’t be strange if she jumped out and was immediately killed. It was a natural and reasonable decision to hide.
“Listen up, Tanya Rothtailer.”
Ziggs took a deep breath, then took a chair from the corner of the room and set it up in front of the closet and sat down.
Then, looking straight into Tanya’s eyes, she spoke.
“You must answer my words only with the truth. If you lie shyly, I’ll never let you go. At this point, I am the only person who can judge Ed’s will and help you.”
Tanya nodded her head.
“Did you… you ordered the assassination of Mr. Ed?”
A person with a straight mind would not be able to nod his head at this question.
Nevertheless, Ziggs was obsolete and asked such a question. Because I can’t quite understand it.
Ed Roth-Taylor has never shown any hostility towards Tanya. Rather, it would have helped.
The wild sense of Ziggs was talking steadily. It seems that Tanya has some kind of resentment against Ed, but I figured it wasn’t serious.
Tanya is in a position to benefit greatly from Ed. Tanya is not a great person to hit the back of Ed like that first. This is because the root is Ed’s younger brother.
So, Ziggs wanted to make sure.
“No… really… no…”
Tanya cried and shook her head.
Upon hearing that, Ziggs put his head down for a long time and fell into trouble. And then came to a conclusion.
If you jump out in front of Lucy like this, Tanya will die. It’s safe to say that you’re really going to die.
I don’t think Ed Roth-Taylor would… want that to happen.
Getting blood on Lucy’s hand, Tanya being killed like that… It doesn’t seem like the situation he wanted at all.
“Yeah, I’ll have to listen to the detailed explanation later.”
Ziggs looked at the central square again. Lucy is so angry that if Tanya isn’t brought in right away, she’s really going to destroy the Ophelis Hall.
If Ed’s death is true… Lucy’s anger like that is understandable enough.
It was because Ziggs had a vague understanding of how special Ed was to Lucy. Ziggs himself felt hostile.
“Listen, Tanya Rothtailer. If you really go out into the plaza right now… you could die.”
“…”
“So, it is right to stay here for now. I don’t know what the misunderstanding was, but… I’ll talk about it once Lucy gets her reason back.”
From Lucy’s point of view, it is clear that Tanya is in charge of this assassination. All circumstantial evidence compels us to think so.
So, it’s not easy to convince Lucy no matter what you say. First of all, it is right to hide unconditionally until Lucy regains reason and the situation is properly understood.
“Lucy, I’ll stop you first.”
“It’s not like that, Ziggs-senpai.”
Wade followed through the broken doorway. Wade also left the ranks and followed Ziggs.
The maid seemed to be suffering from a throbbing headache. Ziggs felt sorry inside.
“There is no need to challenge the impossible. For now… it’s right to listen to Lucy-senpai’s requirements. How do you deal with such a monster…!”
Wade, who followed Ziggs as if to stop him, blocked his path.
“Can’t you understand the situation properly? Now… no one knows what will happen if… she wraps around Tanya. Just… send Tanya to Lucy-senpai like this.”
“I do my best, Wade.”
Wade’s words are theories. Ziggs understood that fact well.
However, Tanya Roth-Taylor is Ed Roth-Taylor’s younger brother. If so, I don’t know until the second time, but once is worth believing.
Also, if it was Lucy that Ziggs knew… no matter how much he lost his mind, he wouldn’t cross the line enough to slam high-ranking magic into the remaining buildings.
Ziggs decided to keep his beliefs with only one belief.
“You are making an unreasonable judgment… Jigs-senpai.”
Wade drew his sword.
“Then… I will have to carry out my will, even by force.”
“…”
“Send Tanya this way.”

– Kwaang! Quang!
Several more explosions were heard. One side of the pavilion in the rose garden was torn apart, and a statue hanging from the roof was smashed to the ground.
“aah!”
As Clevius was running away behind the rose garden, the sound of an explosion stumbled and rolled on the floor.
The maids leading the students should have escaped with as many students as possible. As a result, the route was too long.
Frightened, Clevius couldn’t stand it anymore, so he said he didn’t know, and left the ranks and crossed the back of the square alone.
Clevius, who tried to escape by hiding among the flower beds on the outside of the building, slipped and rolled on the floor in the rain, and collapsed all the way to the central plaza.
“…”
“…Hey…!”
Lucy, wrapped in an unbelievable level of magical power, glanced at Clevius from the air.
However, without showing any sign of concern and without any intention to attack, Lucy turned off Clevius’s nerves.
It was because Lucy understood Clevius’s cowardly temperament well.
Clavius, who barely got up by grabbing his trembling legs, screamed and ran away.
“Ahhh!”
Clevius ran right across the back of Lucy and escaped out of the Ophelis Hall. I have nowhere to go right now, but I didn’t want to remain in such a dangerous place.
If you can escape, you must. That was Clevius’ first principle.
“Really… X-arms… Why… Why is this… happening… Dog… X-arms…! I didn’t come to Sylvania for this! Is there really no serenity in my life? Really like X! Real dog X arm…!!!”
Clavius, who had been running away by bumping into his teeth and shaking his whole body, fell to the floor again at the exit of the rose garden.
– Kudangtangtang!
– Shoot aa
Clavius, who had collapsed on the floor unsightly, stretched out like that and was lying in the rain.
The pouring rain trampled on Clevius.
“Really… If something like that suddenly appears… Of course it’s scary… Really… X arm… Dog… X arm…”
I lie down and think of my mourning. My whole body was soaked in the rain from running away unsightly, and after going through the flowerbeds and rolling the floor a few times, it was full of mud.
It’s still gloomy, but it’s like a drowning mouse, so I can’t be more pathetic than this.
“Really… X arm…”
Laying down on my back, Clavius clenched his teeth as he swept my face covered in rainwater.
Still the feet don’t come off. I was completely out of power. Clevius swept down my face as it was, spitting out soulless swear words over and over again.
“What are you doing, stupid Clevius?”
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from beyond the rain. It was Elvira the meddler, the head of the pension club in the second year who had just been competing.
It has always been the same since subjugating Glaskan. He was a senior alchemist who only made fun of Clevius as if he was pathetic.
“I do, I’m lying here like this.”
“You… haven’t you been fighting a battle before…?”
“okay. You lost all your reagents while fighting. So I have to go get some more reagents to the lab.”
As you can see, even Elvira has left the ranks.
“With the current situation, no one but the senior students can stop that monster. At least until the bachelor’s staff arrive… Shouldn’t it be at least 30 minutes? So, we decided to join forces with the remaining chiefs.”
Elvira said so, and kicked Clevius in the shin.
“Look, my legs are tired. When you get your strength back, run to the Gwakwon-dong. If you have a bachelor’s staff, call them.”

Most of the high-ranking bachelor’s employees who were working hard were out on the northern cliffs to investigate.
It is still far away, and the original Ophelis Hall is managed independently by the maids, so the crime prevention system is not closely linked.
It was obvious that it would take longer than expected to bring in the bachelor’s staff.
Elvira also thought it would be difficult to fix it right away. Despite this, I ran towards the lab with my bag full of alchemy.
Elvira ran out, and Clavius, who was left alone again… lay on his back and was raining for a long time.
“…”
“Really… X arm……”
“Pathetic bastard… Poor bastard… Really… Dog… Ugly bastard…”
Clevius had no choice but to lie down in the rain like that for a while.
He clenched his teeth and clenched his fists against his eyes.

“Ed!”
Yenika ran into the cave where the bonfire was lit.
From noblemtl.com
My magical power had completely run out, and my physical condition was shattered, so I had no choice but to lie down to greet me.
“Ugh… something’s wrong, Ed…! First of all, the academic staff left first… Merylda moved too… Just in case Ed needs to move a bit…!”
“What?”
“I haven’t told you yet… Lucy… that Ed is dead… I must have figured it out before I even explained the circumstances…! I don’t know how you found out… but you already knew…! ”
The screaming body doesn’t move as intended.
“therefore…?”
“I think I went to the Ophelis Hall to find Tanya…!”
With those words… I had no choice but to force myself to stand up. This… feels like I’m going to have to do it myself.
