Chapter 284. Hero (5)
I have always been confident that I have a strong body.
I did notice that no matter how much she rolled and bumped into her, she didn’t get a single scar.
But the decisive factor was when I fell off the cliff.
There was a guy who kept falling behind in the process of marching for boot camp training.
As a squad leader at the time, I couldn’t help but start marching with him on my back.
He had better physical strength than others, so there was no great difficulty in catching up.
The only problem was the bridge made of ice.
The squad members all crept across, and I had no choice but to step forward with my fainted comrade on my back.
Then it was a mess.
With a terrifying sound, the bridge collapsed, and I threw my comrade across to the other side and fell down.
It was a gap with no end in sight, so of course I thought I was going to die.
That’s why I was very surprised when I woke up in a fairly normal state.
If you fall from that height and break a leg, you’re almost fine.
As soon as I finished the simple treatment, I immediately started climbing.
Then it must have been the point where day and night had passed twice.
I finally made contact with people.
The rescue team that came down from above and I met in the middle.
After six hours of long climbing, I managed to climb up and reunite with my comrades.
No one believed that it took two days to get to the confluence.
If you believe me, I can only believe that it took me two days to climb at a very slow pace because I injured my leg.
But then I realized.
This body is said to be a blessed body that does not get a single scratch from a tolerable shock.
“Haa. I think I need to reorganize this barrier. The designer is the Minein Chairman, so…”
“Head Professor.”
“Yes?”
“Imperial University will be safe without me, right?”
“What do you mean by that?”
The head professor’s eyes twisted.
They looked like they were asking if he was kidding.
“I’m terribly sorry. I think I need to go.”
“Professor Freud, are you abandoning your duty?”
“Could you answer me, Head Professor? There is a student who is in danger right before my eyes. He is stronger than me, but if I leave him alone, he will surely die or suffer similar injuries. Should I go rescue that student? , Or should I be guarding the Imperial University?”
“·······.”
The head professor’s mouth fell shut.
Are you saving several students from potential danger, or one student from certain danger?
It was a question that could never be easily answered.
“I have made a decision. I wish you well at the Imperial University, Head Professor.”
Thung.
Her hand sat down on her desk.
A badge was left on the desk when his grip was extended.
It was a mark given to professors at the Imperial University of Freya.
“From now on, I will act not as an educator, but as an individual Sergei von Freud.”
As a former marshal, he decided not to intervene in politics and the military.
Being an educator, I decided to fight only against the demons that directly threatened the students.
This blessed body brought victory no matter which battlefield it went to.
The higher the rank, the more medals on the chest, the greater the sense of incongruity.
Fight and fight, but the strife never ceased.
No, rather, it increased as if it were proliferating.
As I killed human beings, elves, and beastmen, I was filled with skepticism.
There was a sense of skepticism that perhaps the existence of a country might create a war.
That wasn’t always the answer, but it was also true that the frequency of wars in the Empire had drastically decreased since I was discharged from the military.
I have to get away from the battlefield.
It would be impossible to create a world without fighting, but if I could shed less blood by staying away from the battlefield, that was enough.
But now is the time to break that resolution.
“Good luck. Take care of my stupid student, Sergey.”
“·······.”
A war to end wars.
This fight had such an attribute.
I had a hunch that this might be my last war.
I faced the head professor, who had an unusually happy smile on his face, and held his outstretched hand tightly.
“Aww?! It hurts! Sergeyik!”
“Ah. I’m sorry.”
***
“Draw your sword, Schluss Heinkel.”
Tirpitz’s fierce eyes were directed at me.
Would you wait for me to pull out my sword when I was attacked from behind?
I wonder if he’s just trying to imitate chivalry.
“You seem to be misunderstanding something.”
“Sword. Pull it out.”
“Why do you have so much freedom now that you are on my home ground?”
Kwaaang······!
At that moment, a light flashed behind me and a pillar of flame passed right next to me.
I felt a warm sensation in my arm and side.
For some reason, I felt a sense of déjà vu.
“Keuugh…?!”
There was literally nothing left in the place where the flames had passed.
Buildings, roads, everything had been melted down, and only the dents were glowing red.
Neither I nor the demons would be able to guarantee survival if I were properly hit by this tremendous firepower.
Suddenly, the Tilpitz and the Traveler were scattered on both sides of the wide dent, looking tense and preparing for battle.
“You must have been prepared for an unfavorable fight, right?”
“·······!”
Why should I fight 2v1?
There is no need to fight unfavorably in an advantageous position.
The moment I pulled out the barfe from my right hand and rushed at Tilpitz, the traveler rushed at me aiming at my side with his eyes wide open.
Kooung!
“Barrier?!”
However, there was an intangible wall between him and me.
As soon as the forehead was hit, the sword rushed in and the barrier was shattered, but-
“It’s been a while, Master.”
“You…!”
More than enough to pass the time.
In an instant, Trier’s sword barely grazed the traveler’s neck.
It wasn’t just Triae who jumped in.
It was very interesting to see the expression on his face colored with bewilderment as he clung to the traveler from Hurt Locker to the head of the imperial guard.
In the rear, Erika and Einz must be secretly supporting us.
“You and I, let’s go some distance.”
“Ugh!”
I carried the momentum as it was and kicked Tilpitz.
Come to think of it, it was the first time I faced another demon after becoming a demon.
Tilpitz must have been startled by my speed, so he couldn’t avoid it and had to raise his arm guard to block it.
Tirpitz’s new model bounced back and pierced the building as if it had been hit by a car.
This separated the wires.
Travelers will be grilled and boiled by Triae, Heart Locker, Imperial Guard Captain, and wizards.
From now on, I decided to focus only on Tilpitz.
“Wait a minute! Schluss Heinkel! Are you serious!?”
“What is it, man? Your words are getting longer and longer? Are you running fast?”
“That’s not it…!”
Tirpitz staggered out of a crack in the wall.
On the outside, it was full of gaps, but I quickly realized that it was to induce my attack.
Tirpitz are not fools either.
That’s not to say that he’s not the type of person who will attack me in the same way after being robbed of me in a hand-to-hand fight.
There was a hand that Tilpitz hadn’t drawn yet.
Durandal.
Although it has exhausted its power to rip through dimensions, Durandal is still a powerful sword.
Until I took out the last hand, I couldn’t rush in with ‘choice and concentration’.
“To entrust the opponents of demons to mere humans. Are you insane?”
“Mere humans?”
“You’ve made more foolish decisions than I thought. Certainly, if you and I go head-to-head, I won’t stand a chance. But what about the other side?”
“Heuk…”
“Can you hear that loud noise? You must be dying helplessly by now. You have gained undeserved power in a human body, but you are still human in essence. Your weakness is not you, but those around you. If you lose all your beloved comrades, will you be able to show off your natural skills? A moderate desire for revenge is strong, but when it becomes excessive, humans collapse. You are no different.”
“Kuhhup······.”
“Schlus Heinkel?”
“hahahahaha!”
I couldn’t stop and burst into laughter.
Because even if this b*tch is mistaken, she seems to be doing it very well.
While he was shaking his head for a while, Til Fitz froze on the spot, probably embarrassed, and said nothing.
“Hey, Tilpitz. There is only one person I still can’t beat in sparring even after gaining demonic power. Do you know who that is?”
“Who… Are you?”
“Trie. Learned swordsmanship from a traveler.”
“That’s ridiculous.”
“The madman who defeats Trier is Heart Locker.”
“Yes…?”
“And you don’t know how the madman died? He was pincered to death by them. I was just a spoonful at the end.”
“·······.”
Tilpitz’s expression gradually rotted away.
The poker face, which showed no emotion, had long since collapsed before I knew it.
“Do you have any sense of the situation now? It’s time to be kind and not worry about your enemies, but worry about the few remaining people of your country. Got it?”
“·······.”
If I convert my comrades’ stats into levels, it can be said that they are close to max level by now.
Compared to the final half of the original, everyone will never be inferior or better than that.
So, by now, it’s not Hurtlocker and his friends who are in trouble, it’s the Traveler.
There is a limit to dealing with them with just a ready-made longsword.
“I understand.”
“·······?”
At that time, white smoke began to rise from Tilpitz, who lowered his head.
I’ve seen something like this before.
Yes. It was exactly the same as when the fanatics of Asylum self-destructed.
Unsurprisingly, Tilpitz’s body gradually began to burn red.
“If I don’t beat you here, you have no chance.”
“Ah. Why is he like this again…”
Cleaning his red-hot fists, Tilpitz properly braced himself for battle.
The overflowing mana and magical energy that could not build up in Tilpitz’s body quickly covered the surroundings.
I will turn around.
