I Became the Leader of Academy City chapter 39

39 – Discipline 18. The leader blocks the plan of the school villain (3)

It’s an old story.

Before the concept of ‘magic power’ was created in mankind.

A huge gate connecting different worlds has appeared in the Pacific Ocean.

The gate first sent out a magnificent demon wearing golden fleece, and then monsters with mysterious powers poured out in droves.

The unidentified monsters repeatedly slaughtered and carnivorized, competed, and prospered, turning the Earth into their own wilderness.

In the process, billions of people lost their lives.

I couldn’t stop it.

This is because modern firearms, the culmination of human technology, including nuclear bombs, did not work effectively against the demonic beasts.

This is because each demon beast wields mysterious and mysterious power.

Humanity called that power ‘magical power’, calling it ‘magical power that surpasses science and technology’, and accordingly, the name of monsters that manipulate magic power was also established as ‘demon beast’.

The massacre we suffered helplessly was already imprinted in the genes of humanity.

This is the ‘feel of fear’ engraved by the demonic beasts. It’s like rat poison to humanity.

Only those who overcome that fear become explorers and travel outside the city. However, since the majority cannot do this, they cannot help but feel the fear conveyed by verified threats.

“Ah….”

A male student lost strength in his legs and hit his butt on the floor.

Her whole body was shaking.

The emotion on that face is fear.

It is something that has already emerged regardless of his will and is engraved in his instincts.

A skeleton demon possessing eerie magical power is running towards you. It is the horror of human history.

The male student did not have the courage to fight back. Because the amount of magical power touching his skin was already far above his own level.

The situation of other students was not much different.

Either run away.

I was in a hurry.

You can either give up and wait for death.

When they saw the demonic beasts, everyone was busy getting scared.

Unique ability: Necromancy.

Magic formula type 1, ‘summoning the dead’.

‘6Th sense’ is a passive skill of unique ability. It is a magic method that summons the dead who have made a contract by communicating with that ability.

The summoned dead cannot handle magic power because they do not have a physical magic circuit.

In other words, the corpse of a magical beast, which has a stronger skeleton than a human, is perfect to use as a minion.

So, the necromancer concluded many contracts at the tomb of the demon beasts that the headmaster had guided him to.

Most demonic beasts do not communicate and follow only their instincts. As long as they can live and move and crave meat again, they don’t mind growing up in the form of a skeleton.

In the end, the army of the dead that appeared at the practical evaluation site was entirely made up of magical beasts.

Geeeying.

Clap, clang.

Detecting a crisis, the security robots in the test supervisor area were all transformed into battle mode. The lamp that was emitting light appeared like a glow of warlike intent.

These are AI robots that are responsible for the overall infrastructure of Academy City.

There was absolutely no biological sense to feel fear towards them.

[Grrr!]

Skeleton demons covered with the necromancer’s magic rushed forward. The security robots fought back, but some met a futile end with their iron bodies being torn apart.

Not all skeleton demons have equal strength. This is because not all are the same entity. In the end, the demonic beasts, which even the security robots could not do anything about, targeted the students.

However, security robots were not the only force prepared at Asung High School.

Quang!

The three-stage baton swung by Kim Deok-su, a member of the leading team, penetrated the magical skin that covered the magical beast and shattered its spine. It was a blow engulfed in elemental magic that formed solid rock.

He was once a member of the leading team who got involved with Lee Se-ah, who was delivering food to help the less fortunate, and then told his expressionless junior Han Seo-jin about what happened.

The skeleton demon attacked again, but Deoksu swung his triple baton several times in succession to repel the enemy.

“Are you okay?”

Deoksu shouted to the student who almost got hit by the devil. The saved student cried and nodded.

“Okay, thank you…” .”

“Whoa.”

Deoksu grabbed the triple pole and quickly looked around.

The extreme tension caused cold sweat to run down my cheeks.

No matter how brave he pretends to be, Deoksu himself is an ordinary person. Since he was the leader, he could barely move his feet, but he felt like running away right away.

But.

─ ‘Preach to the leaders. Emergency response level 4 issued. There is no proper support due to the barrier. Everyone, do your best to protect the students.’

Director Seondo’s solemn instructions, delivered over the radio, passed through Deoksu’s mind.

Level 4 is the highest response level.

This is the stage where you must face an emergency situation at the risk of your life and somehow evacuate the students to a safe place.

Since other members of the leadership team were also struggling with this situation, he could not allow himself to be controlled by fear.

Sense of duty.

Responsibility.

Awareness of camaraderie.

Numerous emotions suppressed the fear.

This is why the leading members, including Deoksu, are able to fight against the skeleton beasts with a trembling body.

However, such emotions do not provide strength.

“There, behind!!”

“!”

The rescued student spotted the demonic beast approaching secretly like an assassin and shouted urgently.

It’s already too late.

The demonic beast was attacking Deoksu in an instant.

Deoksu was startled and looked back. The skull of the demonic beast, engulfed in purple magical power, was already within close range.

For that moment, time seemed to pass slowly.

There wasn’t enough time to swing the triple baton and fight back.

I get hit.

When I thought so.

Pajik!

Lightning was engraved in the air.

Someone wrapped my weapon in lightning magic and quickly leapt.

He swung the ‘Cheolryonggon’, a black three-tiered baton made up of the armor of an iron-clad dragon.

Pow!!

Dismissal!!

The shock wave of lightning exploded the demonic beast.

The thunder energy spreads in all directions following its immense power.

Skull fragments flew and the wind pressure spread for a moment.

One after another, heavy magical power brought a chill to the senses of the students present.

Jaw. The man who defeated the demonic beast with just one blow landed on the ground and touched the hat he wore on his head.

Deoksu and the student looked at him with surprised faces.

“Manager… !”

Aseong High School Leading Manager, Ahn Woo-jin.

He looked at Deoksu with sharp eyes.

From Deoksu’s perspective, Woojin had retained his usual cool-headedness. It seemed as if he was not affected at all by the fear conveyed by the demonic beast. Those cold eyes actually boosted Deoksu’s morale.

Woojin didn’t say anything. I just lightly tapped Deoksu on the shoulder and passed by. As if she’s leaving it up to you.

“… ….”

Deoksu bit his lip as the memory of almost being attacked by a demonic beast a little while ago entered his mind.

The manager is running so hard, saying he will protect the students.

It was impossible to look as clumsy as I just did.

“Follow me! “Because we’re going to evacuate!”

“Yes, yes…” !”

Deoksu moved quickly with the student he protected.

‘I haven’t heard anything like this… !?’

This is a big deal.

The situation was much bigger than expected.

Suddenly, a barrier unfolded and smartphones stopped working and location tracking became impossible. The only thing possible is radio.

Even the size of the barrier is much wider than a soccer stadium. The magical power I felt was very heavy.

There are no five hundred books within the barrier.

This is a fact estimated from the information that appeared in the location tracking app earlier.

Moreover, the density of magical power flowing through that barrier was at an insane level that was difficult to see in Neo Seoul.

It would be difficult to break through even five hundred books.

Anyway, for now, there was no choice but to block the threat with available leadership personnel and security robots.

‘Expressionless…. Was it really you?’

I looked at the center of the barrier. I had figured out who was there before the location tracking app stopped working.

Han Seo-jin, expressionless junior.

According to the location information seen on her app, she was somehow staying in one place. She was able to figure it out because she looked carefully.

In the end, a barrier developed around Seojin.

There was no doubt that she was one of the six criminals.

‘It’s strange.’

My eyebrows naturally furrowed.

My mind was so confused.

‘No matter how much a necromancer he is, he cannot create a barrier of this magnitude. How did you summon minions to multiple places? In the game, you could only summon it around yourself, right?

Although the unique ability Necromancy is excellent, it is not an ability that has already caused such a severe imbalance.

This level of magical power density and technology scale was at least 7th rank or higher.

I don’t know what happened.

Because the situation does not match the game information I know.

‘And the magic power beneath the ground….’

What was most unsettling was what was on the ground.

An unusual magical power was felt beneath the ground.

‘What on earth is this magic power?’ ?’

From the moment the necromancer activated his unique ability, the pulse of life began to be felt.

Unidentified magic power was rising one after another.

‘What’s clear is that Han Seo-jin can’t do this alone. There’s something like a huge catalyst under the ground. Something, something very dangerous….’

I don’t know what the catalyst was, but it seemed clear that it was something that should never be awakened.

It seems that Seojin already knew what was under this land.

Human?

No.

Because there is no way for a human to survive after being buried alive.

Something.

Something higher than the 7th level is helping Seojin beneath the ground.

So, does that mean that the reason why Seojin wants to slaughter here is related to what lies beneath the ground?

It will be so.

I don’t think they started this mess just to cause senseless slaughter.

Obviously, the reason for activating minions everywhere and targeting students is to kill as many people as quickly as possible.

Why?

‘… To awaken something beneath the ground? Are you trying to offer something like a human corpse or blood?’

I don’t know the detailed causal relationship, but it might be so.

Otherwise, there is no way Seo Jin would be fully prepared and want to carry out a massacre in a place like this.

I chewed my lips.

The area inside the barrier is too large.

The powers of the demon beasts vary, and the students are spread out all over the place. It is unclear whether the security robots and leaders inside the barrier will be enough to protect the students.

What should I do?

How can I protect my students and survive as well?

First, we had to find Han Seo-jin.

I may not be able to defeat Seojin right away with my skills.

To end this situation, I had to defeat her somehow.

I don’t know if it has already moved or if it will remain in its previous location.

Anyway, I kept running toward Seojin. As soon as possible. The hem of his clothes fluttered continuously.

Pow!!

Passy!!

Every time he saw a demonic beast, he destroyed it all with his iron dragon.

When a demon from a distance is seen, it blows its pole and releases electricity. Seojin’s minions, who were swept away by the lightning that spread wildly in dozens of directions, each lost their magic skin and were incapacitated.

The racing heart urged me without stopping.

When I defeat one demon beast, the demon beasts are attacking somewhere.

Even at this moment, someone might have already suffered.

‘Just a little more… hurry!’

Faster.

Faster.

He strengthened his body and infused his magic power to its maximum output, crossing the test site like an arrow. Tension permeated my entire body. My teeth were clenched.

Suddenly, another demonic beast caught my eye.

And.

“… Ah!”

The sharp claws of the demonic beast scratched the side of a female student.

My eyes opened wide, my breath seemed to stop, and my heart sank.

The female student who had been attacked by her magical beast took a step back, leaning on her side. Her blood poured unstoppably through the cracks of her fingers, soaking her school uniform.

She fell on her back.

It was a face I knew.

─ ‘If you continue, it will get better. Fighting.’

─ ‘Manager, I will work hard… !’

A new member of the leadership team whom I gave advice while controlling hair and clothing at the school gate.

As a first-year student who came to take this practical evaluation, I was not wearing the leader armband on my arm.

Meanwhile, the security robot that had half its body blown off, perhaps because it was protecting its junior, was desperately trying to fight the demon beast, sparks flying and smoke rising.

One, the demon beast lightly swung her claws and finished off her guard robot. Her guard robot’s lamp went out, and her mechanical sounds stopped.

Paaat!

Running towards.

I didn’t think it was complicated.

Right now, all I could think about was wanting to kill that big monster.

I infused the iron dragon with lightning magic more thoroughly. The moment the demon discovered me, my iron dragon was already cutting through the air.

Phew!!!

Pajijik!!!

[Geuak… !]

A powerful blow was unleashed. The iron dragon, wrapped in electricity, dug into the beast’s body, creating a shock wave and shattering it into pieces.

Purple magic dissipated and skull fragments scattered in the air.

The demonic beast’s final scream was cut off.
