21 – block it
“Why isn’t Bran here?”
Max Zygmunt.
He muttered that as he looked at Ed and the others.
This is because the spy he planted is invisible.
A guy with red hair.
He must have been planted to cause internal division, but why can’t I see him?
“Well, it doesn’t matter.”
However, the question did not last long.
The number is also one more this side because the guy is missing.
There was no way their team would lose.
In the first place, the cheeky commoner’s team was made up of only the children of insignificant families.
It is a force that can be wiped out by itself.
‘Edgar Fix, I’ll subdue you and make you my slave.’
Max raised the corner of his mouth meanly and put his hand on the teleport magic ball.
His new form dispersed and moved to the arena.
***
An artificial forest of 3,000 pyeong.
That was the place where I would take the test.
When I put my hand on the teleport magic orb, everyone on my team, including me, was instantly transported there.
“Whoa…”
When we arrived at the stadium, everyone took a deep breath with a nervous expression.
Because the weakness of our team is obvious.
The opponent is Max of the Siegmund family.
It was the son of a powerful countess.
Even though she challenged Enya to a duel and lost humiliatingly, it was only because Enya was a monster.
It wasn’t because Max was weak.
He was a guy with the talent to get at least an A grade in this class match, even if he couldn’t do it with Max.
‘And, he’s also the one that needs to be eliminated.’
However, he was one of the representative villains of ‘Elpandor Rune Terra’.
The guy has endless arrogance and jealousy.
Because it eventually reaches Enya and ruins her.
This guy is a guy who wants to sell his soul to the devil to take over Enya.
Enya, who was chasing romance, abandons sword art and pursues only the flesh sword.
The path eventually corrupts Enya.
It is to turn the strongest ally into the worst enemy.
I couldn’t let Enya get ruined.
“It works according to the plan. They’ll get to you first.”
So, in this game, I decided to press down Max.
Even if you take out a somewhat hidden card.
However, to prepare for future matches, it is better to hide the hand as much as possible, so first of all, we planned a strategy to beat him with a strategy using cover.
It is to install a trap using Charlotte’s ability.
“Will my power, too, be of any help… will I be able to stop Mr. Max with something like this?”
“It’s enough to make me pause for a moment. The more variables there are, the better. It is meaningful.”
I encouraged Charlotte to place a vine trap on the floor.
Conversation with her revealed that she has the ability to manipulate natural features.
He said he mainly used his ability to tend the family garden.
Most of the spells are specialized for gardening.
“Whoa! yes! What can’t you do! Should I just go back and hide?”
“Yes. Come out when I signal.”
“OK.”
And the guy who goes to hide himself with a lot of fighting spirit is ‘Tyler’, who mainly deals with combustion magic.
However, his talent is low and his firepower is weak, but if he joins forces like Charlotte, it will be of great help.
“Pio needs to enter the cave.”
The last one left is ‘Pio’.
He looked down on me as a commoner, but since he lost his red hair, he seems to be obedient to my words.
That’s how we prepared for the enemy according to each role.
Pio and Charlotte wait inside the cave, while Tyler hides in the bushes near the cave.
I came out of the cave at a distance and prepared to face the enemy.
Before long, enemies led by Max appeared.
***
Max Zygmunt was overconfident compared to his skills.
It was in this context that he challenged Enya to a duel two years ago and suffered a humiliating defeat.
But this time it was different.
A spy was planted in Ed’s team, and if that wasn’t enough, only the children of the dying family were placed in Ed’s team.
Charlotte Verdian, all she knows how to do is garden.
Tyler Martin, nicknamed ‘Bonfire’ because of his low skill at handling combustion magic
Pio Bailey, a fallen aristocrat whose family is in bankruptcy and is in a state of panic in the back alleys.
They were all trash guys.
And I assigned those guys to Ed’s team.
Even though he only dealt with one commoner, he had planned so meticulously.
‘It’s different from the previous me.’
Two years ago, he reluctantly challenged Enya to a duel. Max experienced the greatest humiliation of his life.
But now it’s different.
Create a win-win situation, and only fight opponents who can win.
Just like this moment!
“Go and fuck off!”
At Max’s command, his team members rushed towards Ed.
Ed stands alone at a distance from the entrance of the cave.
No matter what they prepared, victory or defeat was already decided.
‘Show me your hand, commoner.’
If there is one unknown, it is that Ed’s power is still unknown.
It’s a commoner who has just awakened to mana, so there’s no particular boundary.
Still, isn’t there something you don’t know about?
“Keugh!”
But it was too.
He wanted to hold on for a bit, but he immediately pulled back.
The way the guy turned around and ran away was ridiculous.
“Ha ha ha! That’s who you really are!”
Max smiled triumphantly.
He had uncovered the true nature of the guy.
A slick guy who looks like a parasitic brother!
Perhaps Enya is also watching this scene.

Look closely at how ugly the person who took your heart is.
Quadduk!
It was when I was so intoxicated with the sense of victory.
A vine that suddenly grabs your ankle.
The other four team members were also caught in the vine.
And at the same time, Ed attempted a counterattack.
Fuck!
But to no avail.
A colleague who easily unraveled the vine blocked Ed’s attack.
like this vine.
It was a low-level trap that could be solved at any time by circulating mana through the legs.
After failing to counterattack, Ed turned around and started running away.
“Pu-sup… Ki-kick… Puh ha ha ha! You asshole, did you think this would work?”
At this, Max’s teammates started to burst into laughter.
It’s such a lame vine trap that I prepared at best.
It went beyond ridiculous and even cute.
Even if commoners squeezed their heads, it was only at this level.
Taat-!
Max’s team started charging Ed again.
Arriving at the entrance of the cave, Ed took a boxing stance with Pio.
Charlotte stood behind them, ready to assist them both.
‘Looks like something else has been prepared.’
Max glared at Ed with sharp eyes.
What is the next move he prepared?
In time, Max could see that the number was terrible.
“I’m sorry, Edgar Fix.”
A number prepared by Ed.
It was just a tactic using geographical features.
The moment his team arrived at Ed, he instantly made a bush grow under his feet to block his gaze.
Taking advantage of that gap, Ed and P.O launched an attack.
Of course, the tactic could have been used quite meaningfully.
His teammates, who were momentarily blinded, were beaten by his fist and suffered considerable damage.
However, the guys’ fists were terrible, and soon the team members who came to their senses counterattacked.
The trump card prepared by Ed ended just like that.
“Move.”
Max, who confirmed everything like that, pushed his men back.
Just in case, I sent my subordinates first, but this was all he had prepared.
“I’ll show you what the difference in strength is.”
Saying that, Max drew mana into his fist.
Heo-Eok- Heo-Eok- He threw the regime at Ed, who was out of breath.
Ooo-oh-!
Ed’s body flew backwards with a tremendous roar.
It fell into the depths of the cave.
Pio, who witnessed this scene, became contemplative and ran back into the cave, and Charlotte followed him with a terrified face.
“Puhahahaha! Jerk the. Where are you bouncing? After all, a ruined family always reveals the reason for its ruin. The family is going down because you’re so stupid.”
The ragtag Edgar Fix’s team.
Max’s teammates laughed at them for being thrown into the cave.
Even if it bounces, it bounces to a dead end, how stupid it is.
“Then go finish it. Before that, you know what to do with the video transmission magic tool, right?”
Max and his friends having a secret conversation.
They were planning to destroy the video transmission magic sphere on purpose to torture Ed.
The cave was a dark and narrow space, so it was perfect to break the magic orb pretending to be a mistake.
“It’s disappointing, it’s disappointing.”
Before long, Max Zygmunt’s voice resounded in the cave.
Jerk-jerk-.
The low echoing footsteps of him and his colleagues put pressure on Ed and his party.
Eventually, Max arrived in front of Ed and said.
“In the end, you guys are there. There are bound to be limits to lowly bloodlines.”
“…”
Saying that, Max glanced sideways at the video transmission magic sphere approaching him.
Grasping the handle of the sword, he began to figure out how to break it naturally.
“thanks.”
That was the moment.
Didn’t Edgar Fix suddenly wake up while talking strange nonsense?
thank you
Eventually, Ed smiled brightly and said.
“Thank you for catching me.”
“…?”
***
Intoxicated with a sense of victory, Max and his party crawled in without knowing that this place was Hell.
The operation to catch them off guard and bring them into the cave was a success.
Everyone did a good job in their assigned roles.
Immediately after I was blown away by Max’s attack, the acting of Pio and Charlotte, who screamed and ran towards me, was excellent.
“shallot!”
“Yes!”
So now is the time to strike back.
After I signed Charlotte, I immediately called out to Tyler, who was waiting outside.
“Tyler!”
Roaring!
Then, at the same time as my shout, a fireball was shot from the entrance of the cave.
Tyler, who had been waiting in advance, fired several fireballs the size of basketballs.
However, as can be seen from its size, the power of the fireball was terrible.
An academy cadet who can strengthen his body through mana.
To them, Tyler’s fireballs were nothing more than rubbish magic that was okay even if they didn’t get hit.
After all, like the anchovy nickname of ‘Bonfire Tyler’, Tyler’s fireball was not suitable for combat.
It’s just trivial combustion magic used to kindle a fire occasionally.
Roaring!
But I was able to take a hint from Tyler’s nickname.
Read at noblemtl.com
Like his nickname, he doesn’t shoot fireballs at people, but uses them to start fires.
To burn the numerous bushes that Charlotte summoned.
“What, what?”
“Boo, fire!”
It was as it worked.
The moment Tyler fired the fireball, countless bushes grew from the spell Charlotte had installed and quickly turned into a sea of fire.
In an instant, the entire cave was engulfed in flames and the view was blocked by smoke.
fault! fault! fault! fault!
However, our party was already leaving the cave.
After putting on the goggles I had given me in advance, and covering the trachea with a towel soaked in water, they fled through the entrance and exit of the cave.
Because we had agreed in advance, our party was able to get out of the cave in an instant.
“Stop it.”
After getting out of the cave, I gave Charlotte another order.
Summon a large rock at the entrance of the cave to block the entrance.
“Kwaaah!! Come on, I can’t see you!”
“Sir baaal!!! No, it’s blocked!!”
“Look!”
Before long, I began to hear their screams over the rocks.
He was taken aback when the entrance was blocked.
The guys then tried to escape the cave by hitting the rocks that Salot had set up.
thud!
thud!
thud!
The rock began to vibrate violently and to crack apart.
Wow!
Eventually, the rock was destroyed.
You can’t stop an academy cadet with just a rock.
But at that moment.
Per-billion—!
I gathered mana in my leg and kicked the guy who broke the rock.
Since he inhaled smoke and couldn’t open his eyes properly, he had no choice but to be hit by my kick.
“Cuck!”
Of course, the guys who tried to escape afterwards did the same.
Coming out with a cough, they were in such a vulnerable state that they could be pushed away with a single kick.
Because he inhaled the pungent smoke in the high temperature.
“Stop it.”
After pushing them away, he summoned the rock again.
But again, the rock broke helplessly.
This is because Max, the ace of the team, stepped forward.
“This commoner bird—ㄲ!”
Fuck!
But it’s not like he’s not in my condition either.
As soon as it came out, I kicked it and it flew several meters away.
I repeated the same command with a nonchalant face.
“Stop it.”
The combat structure is so simple.
They try to come out, we block them.
It was repeated just once more.
Squeezing out his energy, Max broke the rock and rushed at me.
Fuck!
But he’s a guy who inhaled a lot of smoke.
I can’t even show 20% of my condition.
No matter how much he strengthened his body with mana, he couldn’t stop the smoke from penetrating his eyes and bronchi.
“Stop it.”
So again the rock was erected.
Screams began to be heard inside the cave.
“Kheuheouk…! Turn it off… Call-lock! Cole-lock!”
“Four, buy… save… woo, we… lose…”
I’m not going to die like this.
Just in case, I gathered mana in my fist and tried to break a rock.
To see what their condition is.
“Stop it.”
it’s still far
Seeing him desperately trying to crawl out, I think I can leave it for a little while longer.
As the rocks began to summon again, they screamed.
“No eh eh eh!! Call-Rock! Call-Rock! Turn it off…”
Either that or not, the rock was built.
Wouldn’t it be better to smoke it for about 3 more minutes from now on?
coo!!!
It was the moment I thought about it.
A heavy hitting sound that made the entire cave vibrate.
Soon two or three more such sounds rang out, BANG! And the outer wall of the thick cave collapsed.
If the front doesn’t work, the side will be broken.
“Tu-huh! Shut-huh! Kel-Rock! Kel-Rock! Cole-lock! Whoa! Whoa— Coke! Cole-lock!”
The guy who broke the side and jumped out was none other than Max.
He breathed in the fresh outside air and was coughing continuously.
Unfortunately, smoking time is over.
Smoke was leaking from the side of the cave like a pressure cooker when the rice was done.
“Huh-uh-uh! Coke! Coke! Open up, commoners…! now! Coke! Cole-lock! You huh…! Lord, kill! Cole-lock! Cole-lock!”
The boy stumbled and got himself up.
In his hand was the Zigmund family’s treasured sword, the black yodo.
To think of fighting even in this situation is a foolish judgment indeed.
“I will finish and come.”
But don’t be careless.
The black Zygmunt family’s treasured sword he brought with him.
It was an artifact created by a Dwarf who had received the title of ‘artisan’.
“Inventory.”
So, I decided to respond to scams with scams.
He took out the ‘Plasma Ray Titanium Alloy Gauntlet’ stored in his inventory.
Paperweight!
Then a crack opened in the air and a bracelet began to appear.
I snatched it from the air and immediately put it on my right wrist.
Then-
Geeeing…
The mana stones in the bracelet started to activate and transform.
Numerous mechanical parts extending from the bracelet form a gauntlet, wrapping around my wrist and hand.
That’s how my right hand was filled with a gauntlet with a jet-black base and silver decorations.
The time has finally come to use the ‘Plasma Ray Titanium Alloy Gauntlet’ for the first time.
yeah it’s the arc repulsor
