Chapter 123
bad fight.
It was just that word. What I can see, the sight of Elcia Lyoleate fighting… … .
“It’s embarrassing… … .”
Are you struggling too?
I expected.
Originally, the monsters here were supposed to appear only in a match that was unfavorable to her.
A board built on the premise that you won’t win.
its purpose.
‘An excuse to get her into trouble and intervene.’
If Elcia isn’t in trouble, there’s no excuse to help her.
“… … That child is weak.”
Emily looked at Elcia’s movements during the battle and put this evaluation into her mouth.
weak.
“Emily, do you look weak?”
“Obviously they look better than normal kids. I’m sure it will.”
The devil, who didn’t know much about her, accurately evaluated the present Elsia.
“It looks like you’re not growing.”
“… … That’s not wrong.”
Even at the time of the game, Elcia’s status growth between her first appearance and this point was very minimal.
because it was stagnant.
Because that was her concern and the wall she had to overcome.
‘The future of Elcia Ryoleate will be determined by the choice she makes afterwards.’
Judging by the standards of her gaming days, after this, her way of thinking will be completed through a few trivial incidents.
Depending on the choice of the main character and whether or not to intervene, it will be a good role or a villain.
… … if you become a villain
‘I will succumb to the thoughts of the Duke of Lioleit.’
Duke of Liolet.
One of the most powerful families in the Empire, and a prestigious family claiming to be the second largest in the Empire.
but.
‘In the end, an evil family… … .’
Do you stick to your own thoughts, either stained with them or unstained?
That is the crossroads of that girl’s choice.
‘What should I do?’
I was troubled.
Precisely, what behavior is desirable for my position in the future.
If it was the main character in the game, he would help her regardless of that.
We will listen to your concerns, take the time to help you overcome them, and then move forward together.
‘But why me?’
I am not the main character.
The current situation is that we have to assume that the main character does not exist.
in short.
‘If I don’t intervene, Elcia can’t awaken.’
But for me to intervene on behalf of the main character, that was quite annoying.
Time is wasted.
then?
“… … I will have to use other means.”
“draft? What are you going to do?”
“It seems like slime isn’t enough, so I’ll have to use a more aggressive method.”
That too with an intense one.
After making my decision, I nodded and instructed Elcia, who was still struggling.
“Elcia, step back.”
“Sian, even if you don’t interfere… … .”
“I can’t see you, so please leave.”
don’t say it three times
Elcia, as if she noticed something, trembled her shoulders and hurriedly retreated.
Shortly thereafter, an ice storm created by Emily sweeps away the giant slime, freezes it as it is, and shatters it.
blow.
Since it was already in the middle of the battle, even assuming that the giant slime had suffered some damage, it was proof that the difference in power was clear.

《Acquire experience.》
《You have reached level 35》
《Acquire 5pts of level-up bonus skill points.》
The experience is pretty good right now.
As if ignoring the message flowing in front of my eyes, I looked at Elcia.
“… … how?”
Elcia’s eyes wide open and she hesitates while trying to say something.
“You meant to ask how this difference came?”
Of course you know.
Knowing this, when I spoke ruthlessly, Elcia was genuinely surprised.
“I know just by looking at it. … … And one more thing I’m sure of.”
“what?”
“Now you say you ate too much.”
Elcia, who suspected that she had heard it wrong, stepped back in surprise.
A small ember rises beneath her feet.
black salt.
Magi’s flame.
“What are you doing?”
“The policy has changed. Should I build a friendship with a young lady from the Lyoleate family, who has a bright future, or is it more appropriate to build a friendship with another useful guy?”
Fortunately, there was an example of what kind of face to show at a time like this.
The expression of ‘Xian’ during the game.
An ugly betrayal icon.
“draft… … .”
“If there’s no improvement, I’ll be the only one bothered if I try to build a useless friendship.”
Above all, I am a boy who is more suited to betrayal.
(Huh-huh… I’m sure it’s Xi’an. He’s good at imitating bad kids.)
Look at it, even the devil admitted it.
Elcia, unable to hide her nervous face, takes out a new spare spear.
I can clearly feel that I am more nervous than when I was fighting the monster a moment ago.
… … I’m a bit sad for some reason.
“Aren’t you going to ask why?”
“Even if we were on opposite sides of each other, we’d be kicked out if we saw this.”
“Right. Then you won’t have to say anything else.”
There will be no need to talk more about hurting your mouth.
I pulled up the magi and took a step forward.
Then, Elcia took two steps back.
“I’ll give you a moderate handicap. … … My familiar, Emily, is not going to get into this fight.”
“Are you underestimating me?”
“that’s right. It’s very underestimated.”
As I pretend to wave my hands and convey my thoughts in flames, Emily understands and steps back with a shrug.
“Then play in moderation.”
“OK.”
I’m not even worried about that
Well, even if it were me, I wouldn’t feel that way at all.
“Come to think of it, you haven’t really competed since you competed lightly before the outside practice, right?”
“… … okay.”
“It is different from then. There is no one to dry. much less.”
There was no need to declare a start.
I pretended to talk and threw a flame bullet as if flowing water.
No matter how much this prank doesn’t work, of course I avoid it.
“Let’s try to fight close to the actual battle this time.”
There was no answer.
Perhaps she re-recognized me as an enemy without any regrets, and she immediately plans a counterattack.
The basics when dealing with magic classes.
Quickly stab the loopholes and subdue them without giving them a chance to cast magic.
“Don’t look at me.”
Along with a sharp murder, the tip of Elcia’s spear aimed precisely at the nape of my neck.
“Look? who?”
I laughed and quickly pulled out the dagger.
hit it off
“What?!”
Elcia couldn’t hide her astonished voice.
With just a dagger, he struck a blow with an aura.
Even more so, a person from a magic class with low melee knowledge.
“It’s not impossible if there’s a difference in power.”
Levels won’t make much of a difference.
At this point, Elcia’s level is about 32.
However, the difference in status should be serious.
For a difference of this much, it means that the average has widened by more than 100.
“Isn’t it completely different from the last time we competed?”
They talk with a friendly smile, but it will sound cruel to the listener.
“Elcia, as you said, I am strong.”
Because it’s true.
“But more than that, you are behind.”
that’s also true.
Be honest and point out only the facts.
“Kuh! Know!”
Elcia desperately grits her teeth and unleashes her next skill.
All melee skills she can use.
“It’s no use.”
Parry simply with a dagger.
In return, he lightly chanted a wind shot and fired it at her torso, and Elcia barely defended herself and was pushed back.
“… … Did you figure it out?”
“Well, I know roughly.”
It may seem like a foul, but it’s nothing special. Based on my memory from my gaming days, I know all of your attack patterns.
Although not limited to her.
“Funny. This is the only talent of the Lyoleites.”
“… … .”
“Do you know why there is such a difference?”
As if not wanting to listen, Elcia launches another meaningless attack.
This time with a little more force. Is it difficult to block with only a dagger?
“Then you can use magic.”
– Hands of Black Mud.
When she hit the ground lightly, the rising mud arm obstructed Elcia’s attack and cut off the trail of the spear blade.
“this! Keugh!”
As Elcia spreads the wall of aura with all her might, the orb of black flame that flew in a direct hit explodes splendidly.
It’s just barely defending.
As if she had exhausted her energy with just that one defense, Elcia breathed heavily.
“how… … how?”
“How can there be such a difference in strength? classes at the same level. But you have a better environment. But why did I grow more?”
Pushing Elcia, I said the answer with a cruel smile as if I was giving her a gift to the underworld.
“Because you don’t use your natural talent.”
“… … .”
“Besides the human relationships and opportunities you can enjoy at the academy, I have the talent of a warlock and the communion with the devil I have been working with.”
I use all of them sparingly.
“What do you want to say?”
“lets think. What you wield is only spearmanship according to the textbook. If you try to come to that level, everyone learns it. The same goes for magic that supports your skills.”
senior freshman.
She must be more talented than anyone else.
“You are not using your talents.”
Elsia’s talent is neither martial arts nor magic.
There is a special skill that other children do not have.
“draft… … . you… … .”
“You don’t like it, do you? That sounds full. Hey, I didn’t choose black magic because I wanted it from the beginning.”
As I beckon, the goal spear appears out of thin air and continues to pursue her.
The goal spear that continues to fly toward the fleeing Elsia is only narrowly pursued and pierced behind her.
“You learn to do it because you know how to do it. you know I’m from the street, so I’m good at picking things up and eating them.”
Well, I’m careful because if I make a mistake there, I’ll take a shortcut that will end my life.
“You have to do what you know how to do.”
“What are you talking about knowing!”
Elcia casts a spell enraged and blows it.
Circle 2’s Lightning Arrow.
I blocked it with only the barrier I created by extending my demonic energy.
“Because this doesn’t work. Didn’t I tell you to use your talents?”
“Bullsh*t!”
She refutes it and tries to hit the flying goal spear, but her spear can’t stand it and breaks.
are agitated
It is said that the hardness of the aura varies greatly depending on the user’s concentration.
“… … It really saddens me.”
I clicked my tongue and swung my hand as if hitting the air.
High-density magi swept the front as it was and pushed Elcia away.
“Ugh!”
It’s less attractive than a young lady’s scream, but there’s nothing special about it.
“I wanted to be your opponent, but you act like you’re not having fun until the end. top.”
I muttered calmly and declared my last move.
“It doesn’t seem like we need to deal with it anymore, so I’ll finish it now.”
Cast the Bone Spear.
Slightly increases the injection amount of demonic energy and increases the size of the spear it creates.
The goal spears I usually shoot are the size of a normal short spear.
However, what I have created now is more like a sharp blunt weapon than a spear.
“Ah, I’ll leave the neck alone. I think that would make a good present.”
As I gestured, quoting a line I remembered from the game, the tip of the goal was aimed at Elcia.
‘Currently, with that guy’s stats, it’s impossible to defend or parry even if he collects an aura. … … To stop that.’
As I recalled in my head a list of all the skills and abilities possessed by a girl named Elcia Leolate, I thought of her future path.
“Tell me. There is no meaning to your martial arts or trivial magic.”
Declaring the end, let’s lower our hands.
Using the motion as a signal, the goal is accelerated.
“It is over.”
I was certain of the conclusion that would follow.
Looking at the black brilliance that entwined the tip of the flying spear.
I was sure of the result and laughed.
“This will work as planned.”
* * *
Elcia Leoleate was instantly convinced of the identity of something that filled her thoughts.
fear.
Fear of the boy in front of you.
Due to the overwhelming difference in skill, the desperate resistance was quickly neutralized while being lightly ridiculed.
In the end, all I could do was roll on the floor and look up awkwardly.
‘… … I have no choice but to admit it.’
What’s even more miserable is that he admits it as if it were natural even though he was driven into inferiority.
As I thought, that boy was strong.
And he… … No progress.
‘What are you talking about knowing! draft!’
Xian pointed out.
that he neglected his talent.
There was no way she didn’t know what that meant.
‘I really wanted strength!’
I knew it all too well.
That’s why I couldn’t even get angry properly.
and this sh*t.
As Xian had declared, Elcia could not block that goal.
It’s not just a bone spear.
A summoned object shaped by high-density demonic energy. It must have the terrifying power to rip apart any railroad.
‘Is this how you die… … .’
Elcia, who was certain of the end that could not be ridiculed.
“Stop the bullsh*t aaa!”
I screamed as I glared at the tip of the flying goal.
(Then, show the true value of Reoleit. . . . Descendant of the evil blood that will set everything on fire.)
someone whispers
vision is blackened
see nothing more
not even remember.
The only thing that unfolded inside her pupils.
The most terrifying memories she shied away from.
It reminds me of the times when Elcia Reolelate hates and regrets the most.
that… … .
A nightmare when you burn what you hold dear with a talent you hate.
