Episode 82 – Villains, listen.
82. Villains, listen.
“The culprit who caused this chaos.”
Grumbling-.
Protruding from the waist covered in rags was a straight sword body.
Unlike the man’s sword armor, it was well maintained. The blades were sharply sharpened and well-groomed enough to reflect the sunlight brightly.
“Khahahahaha!”
“Ha, indeed.”
“Puhahahaha!”
The men burst into laughter, clutching their stomachs.
“What, an apostle of justice? Is that something like that?”
“I guess he has a mental disorder.”
“Have you read at least one novel?”
They all laughed at the man.
That too.
Not to mention the man’s shabby attire, there was no sense of energy at all. He had no mana at all. It means that he is a nobody.
When a guy like that approaches me and pulls out his sword as if he wants to do something, I can’t help but laugh.
Click-Click-Click-
Meanwhile, the man was getting closer and closer.
“Ah… But I laughed out loud for the first time in a while.”
“Thanks to you, I had a good time, so I’ll let you go cleanly.”
A short man stepped forward, giggling. She was wiping away tears from her eyes.
The man took out a flying sword from his chest and said.
“Be born with a healthy head in your next life.”
Tsk-!
Then he flicked his arm and threw the knife towards the man’s forehead.
The movements were very skillful and concise. It was evident that a lot of time and effort had been put into training.
“Let’s go.”
The men immediately turned around and followed behind the orc procession. I knew without even looking that the man was going to die after being hit by a rain sword. It was a predicted future.
However.
Click-Click-Click-
“””······?”””
I could still hear the metal sound of armor hitting each other. It was even closer than before.
“Mr. “What are you doing, you bastard?”
“Aren’t you doing it right?”
The short man was immediately struck by a blow.
“f*ck, did you throw it properly? Did I make a mistake by laughing too much?”
The short man frowned at her, as if her pride had been hurt.
Fit-!
He took out another bag and threw it at the man who had already reached within 30 steps. There was more strength than before.
Thirty paces. At a close distance, the orcs in the back row began to notice the man’s presence. It’s a distance you can’t hit unless you do it on purpose.
However.
Click-Click-Click-
The rain split the air, and the man walked with a strange attitude.
“””······?!”””
The men’s expressions hardened. At this point, it wasn’t a co-worker’s problem.
They all raised their hands on their weapons.
“Who are you?”
“······.”
The man’s red eyes did not even move.
It just approaches.
Saaa-
The air in the area became cold. The happy atmosphere suddenly disappeared.
Instead, what struck the men was a sense of tense tension. It felt like someone had tied a rope around my head and tightened it.
Click-Click-Click-
That constant gait and noise.
A calm and calm expression.
A clean sword hanging down and held in one hand.
It suddenly felt extremely threatening. Her heart pounded and she was filled with fear.
“I asked who it was!”
A man shouted hysterically.
Jeokruguk-
With a big step, the gap narrows once again.
The man’s mouth slowly opened.
“Villains, listen.”
Solid and clear tone.
When the men heard that voice, they felt their whole bodies being held tightly. I couldn’t move even a single step. It felt like a huge snake had wrapped around my body.
Sweat seeped from my hands holding the sack, and the sound of my heart shook my mind.
Jeokruguk-
“I am a wanderer on a pilgrimage around the world, an ascetic in search of meaning, and a swordsman who walks alone.”
“······?”
The men narrowed their eyebrows at the strange self-introduction.
“······Seo, no way!”
But one of them seemed to realize something, and her face turned into a look of terrible astonishment.
Jeokruguk-
The man arrived in front of his men.
He had his back to the sun.
From Noble mtl dot com
Only a pair of red eyes quietly glowed on his face, which was darkened by the backlight.
“My name is Lehman Crusif, the Wandering Knight.”
Immediately after.
The sky fell.

“Vondeum-dus carelon.”
Dozens of high-pressure thunderbolts are fired following Aria’s elegant hand gestures.
Position, firepower, timing. There was not a single flaw in its accuracy.
Kwazijic! Kwajijijiji- Kwajik!
The lightning struck like that was enough to turn the Lizardmen into roasted lizards.
After pouring out a large amount of mana, Aria stepped back for a moment. She began to cool her core and prepare for her new magic.
She was followed by Liana.
“Bisan, soltran- gaos!”
Whaaa!
What jumped out from her fingertips were numerous golden butterflies. The butterflies fluttered and spread out far and wide.
The butterflies that flew away soon circled around the heads of the enemies.
Then the enemies stumbled and lost their balance. I couldn’t even stand upright like a drunkard.
Seogeogeeokeuk-!
It was easy for Carotene, Essabel, and Celia’s weapons to cut down those incapacitated guys.
“hehehe.”
A smile spread across Liana’s lips, as if she was very satisfied with the magic she had unleashed.
“······.”
Aria, who was watching this from behind, twitched for a moment. In her opinion, there were several areas in which she needed to improve.
Arya shook her head slightly and dropped two of her lightning bolts. The five or six enemies who were trying to sneak back behind her disappeared.
‘It will be over soon.’
Aria thought after looking at the situation for a moment.
The battle between the Lizardman Colony and Leon and his party seemed to end in an easy victory. In the first place, the power of this party far exceeded the level of first-year cadets.
They tried to strengthen his body by using tricks.
Aria’s eyes narrowed.
‘Anyway, that sweet medicine. It seems similar to what the demons ate back then.’
I am referring to the Belger seen in Priville. The effects of the medicine were very similar.
In the first place, it was strange that monsters and the like had such high-level medicine. It doesn’t make sense unless someone provides it.
‘Hmm, is this something that the blood donation group did? Or another force? The owner seemed to know something.’
“Ardes, per Belium.”
Aria steadily cast her magic even while her thoughts were wandering. The blue mana that rushed through her air crushed her enemies without hesitation.
Aria’s gaze focused on Leon.
He was engaged in a duel with the Lizard King in the middle of enemy territory.
No, actually, it would be difficult to call something like that a ‘duel’.
Leon was unilaterally trampling on his opponent.
Wow! You made your own!
Every time Leon’s sword disappeared, a new sword mark appeared on the Lizard King’s body.
However, the wound was shallow enough to split the scales, and only a little blood oozed out.
Despite the fact that it is possible to do so, one does not intentionally leave a fatal wound.
– Hey, are you already begging? Why don’t you try your best?
– Wow!
Practice partner.
That was all. It was nothing more than a biological training device for Leon to adapt to new technology.
‘······Awesome.’
Aria’s eyes held a strange heat.
Who among her first-year cadets could fight like that? Even if you search among the advanced cadets, you won’t find many.
The Lizard King who took the sweet medicine was by no means an easy opponent.
When he swung the spear, the ground was torn apart and the surrounding area was devastated. Its speed was fast enough to hit a flying arrow.
In addition, his intelligence was high and his skill with a spear was at a high level.
Leon was playing with that guy, laughing.
Even if it wasn’t simple inaction, it was amazing to show such composure in a real battle where one’s life was on the edge of a sword.
Most first-year cadets would be completely frightened just by standing in front of him.
Leon’s nature is not to be nervous or afraid in any situation. It was truly the qualities of an outstanding warrior.
‘I think it’s done at this point.’
Arya stopped chanting her magic. Her battle was slowly coming to an end. The unmanned side will take care of her remaining remnants.
The lizardman colony was not annihilated. The number of Lizardmen who escaped along the way was quite high.
Even some of the SS fled when they saw that the Lizard King could not do anything.
However, I think it would be enough to leave it as a training material for other cadets.
Or.
‘Those who have taken medicine may melt on their own.’
If you think about the case of Belgere last time, the side effects of the drug were serious. The body literally collapsed from the inside.
The Lizardman Guards who ran away had a high probability of committing suicide once the effect of the drug wore off.
‘But these drugs are being passed around, so the intelligence department is working, right?’
Aria clicked her tongue at the incompetence of the Imperial Intelligence Department.
She turned her head and spoke to Liana.
“Liana. I think it’s over now. “Let’s go too.”
“Ah, yes!”
Aria turned her gaze forward again.
‘Huh?’
She soon caught her silent thought and opened her wide eyes.
Click-Click-Click-
Far away.
With long black hair and broken armor here and there.
A man with a shabby appearance was heading towards Leon.
