Episode 82
Kelnios, who had lost his greatsword, murmured as if he was at a loss.
“Chit… … . He said he wasn’t feeling well a while ago.”
“I’m sorry. Shouldn’t you have used a good sword?”
Oops! The ax swung horizontally by the dean collided with Kellnios’ torso, which made a clicking sound.
Unable to sustain it, it flies off and lands on the ground.
“… … This body has also aged. I wanted to split it in two.”
“I was about to split! damn it! Skeletons have delicate waists, you damn old man!”
Staggering, Kelnios raises himself.
It won’t be fine.
“Wouldn’t it be capricious… … . It’s still too early to fight that old man.”
“Did only the mouth live? Skeleton?”
As if he had no intention of relaxing, the dean chased after him and hit the axe.
There is no need to be considerate of opponents who have lost their weapons. A fair duel is bullsh*t.
Kelnios avoids it as if tossing himself with a ridiculous scream.
The difference between winning and losing
“Let me finish. We can’t keep the cute students sleeping on the floor, so shouldn’t we hurry up and finish it?”
The dean raised the ax, perhaps in the hope of finishing it.
A blue flame-like aura burns at once on the blade of the axe and entangles it.
“no… … . That’s a bit troublesome.”
The movement of Kelnios, who was flustered, changed instantly.
Darkness opened in the air, and each hand held a sword hilt.
two swords. Something that would be difficult for a strong general to wield even if he held it with both hands.
The guy grabbed two swords each with one hand and swung them to knock the ax out.
“… … .”
The dean’s movements stiffened for an instant.
I understood it because I was the one who faced it directly.
has changed
It is obviously different from the technique of a while ago.
A sincere skill revealed in just one moment.
“… … What about you?”
“It’s difficult beyond this, so let’s promise later… … . sediment.”
It’s embarrassing.
I ruined the plan, was embarrassed by the kid, and ate the armor and great sword.
I’ll hear you when I go back,” he complained, then took a step back.
The dean doesn’t chase.
I understand. Putting aside the win or loss, if you fight with that guy any longer, it will harm the safety of the other students.
“Are students a priority? really backed off sediment.”
“… … go away.”
“hahahaha, then go away without hesitation. … … and.”
A black mist flows out from somewhere, covering Kelnios’ body.
Gradually the presence fades. Is it a movement related skill?
The last thing he looked at was this way.
“name is… … Did you say cyan? I’ll look forward to you too. Become the tycoon that will come to you someday. Then stick to me properly.”
“I do not need.”
“Kahahahaha, not cute. Then see you next time.”
He said it as if he was certain that we would meet again someday, and then he completely disappeared.
“oh… … . It was filmed.”
“doesn’t care. Even if it wasn’t today, it seemed like it would be like that anyway.”
More than anything, I already have a guess about when I’ll run into him next.
then… … .
“… … Then I will definitely win.”
traces he left behind.
He glanced at the broken helmet and the broken greatsword.
“Anyway, the f*cking practice is over.”
《Main Scenario Chapter 2 has been cleared.》
《The future of the world begins to tilt in the true direction.》
It’s like crossing a stairway to the true ending.

Outside training is, of course, suspended.
When the barrier was completely lifted, the professors rushed in to secure the students and hurried to return to the main building of the academy.
The tests were conducted just in case, and students with no problems were given priority to rest.
“First of all, I’ll summarize what Xian said and submit it.”
Professor Daniel of the Black Magic Class is in charge of listening to my circumstances.
“I have been through a lot. It must have been an incident that even upperclassmen would have struggled with, but they handled it well.”
“I was lucky. It just worked out pretty well.”
“If you’re lucky, I don’t think you’ll get caught up in this.”
“I have nothing to say.”
It was a lot to learn for me, but it must have been the worst practice for the other kids.
“Is everyone okay?”
“There are no casualties. After the rescue, some of the students were anxious, but they will soon shake it off.”
That part speaks soberly.
“Some of the testimonies from other students said that Xi’an had a lot of credit.”
“Um, then will there be a prize?”
It’s snobbish, but I’d like to ask that first. Praise in kind.
“The dean said he had no intention of passing on the credit himself, so I won’t end it bare-mouthed.”
“I look forward to it. … … Oh, and a separate request.”
“Ah, you mean fragments of the equipment that the Death Knight abandoned?”
Death Knight.
After solving the case in the Forest of Blood, the damned skeleton appeared behind it and made a mess.
I said I wanted the helmet he had spilled and the fragments of the broken greatsword during the audition process.
reason? Because I have to use it.
“I decided that there would be no harm and the dean said it was okay, so I’ll let you take over sooner or later according to the procedure.”
I thought it was inevitable if the request was rejected, but this time it was handled flexibly.
Maybe it’s because of merit.
“However, it has been decided to keep quiet about that Death Knight.”
It is said that a mutilation order was delivered to not only me but also those who witnessed it.
“It’s an undead that openly hit the dean. … … Who the hell made that?”
I had no intention of pretending to know.
If I talk too much, on the contrary, my position will be very annoying.
I honestly have no desire to get involved.
It needs to be dealt with sometime.
Professor Daniel, who stared at me seriously in thought, brought up another story as if changing the subject.
“Oh, and Xian. What are you going to do about the bounty?”
“yes? prize? … … Oh, is that about Melfrang? uh? But is the bounty still valid?”
“First of all, he’s a wanted man.”
From noble mtl dot com
Even 30 years ago, the bounty is still valid. No, it will never be cancelled.
“There is no such thing as a crime designated by law that becomes null and void just because the time has passed.”
“Then that means the bounty is valid.”
It was unexpected.
Even at the time of the game, there was a setting that most of the bloodthirsty people, including Melfrang, were criminals hiding from the eyes of the Empire.
However, there was no mention of receiving a separate bounty.
Probably just skipped over it. Or did you forget
“Only the wanted person whose identity has been confirmed will be recognized with the right to receive the bounty.”
Of course, since the blood people disappeared after death, the body cannot be identified.
However, if you search your belongings and research traces, you will be able to determine your identity right away.
Among them, the instigator, Melfrang’s bounty, will be recognized immediately.
“That’s nice… … . prize… … . It’s sweet just thinking about it.”
“hehehe, I also didn’t have enough research funds when I was a student, so I went looking for seniors and wanted people at the time.”
… … Did you go looking for criminals with the concept of treasure hunting? scary
“The worst value for money is a thief. It’s surprisingly empty. It’s just dirty and smelly.”
A professor who says goblins would be more money.
I see A thief is not even as good as a goblin.
This tip is really unnecessary.
“Whoops… … . prize… … . You are young.”
“You don’t need young people to fight with criminals. And you look older when you say that, Professor.”
“… … draft? I beg your pardon?”
“no. No big deal.”
I could feel the chill in Professor Daniel’s smile, probably because age was a weakness. Well, be careful with your words.
“Okay~, with this, listening to the circumstances and what needs to be conveyed are roughly finished.”
There were no abnormalities in the examination results. There were no signs of being cursed.
This will set you free.
I want to hurry up and apply for an outing and shoot around the city. As expected, living in the city rather than camping suits my temper.
“draft?”
Meanwhile, Professor Daniel is still waiting for something else.
“… … Oh, come to think of it, I forgot to say this and that.”
I listened to the circumstances, got tested, and lay down saying I was going to take a nap. I was really busy.
“I came home safely.”
“I’m back. draft.”
Professor Daniel gently stroked my hair, as if welcoming the return of a younger brother with a considerable age gap rather than a disciple.
Chapter 14 – The Wizarding Tournament
“draft”
《Class: Warlock》
《Class Level: 31》
《Stamina: 251》《Magic Power: 450》《Agility: 216》《Luck: 150》
《Physical Defense: 14》《Magical Defense: 20》《Mental Resistance: 30》
《Plant Tolerance: 25》
《Remaining Skill Points: 9pt》
You have reached level 31.
It was also officially reported to the academy that the level of black magic had also reached the 4th circle.
‘This is enough for the time being… … No big deal.’
The gap between the end of Chapter 2 and the beginning of Chapter 3 of the main scenario.
There are a few events in between, but none of them would be considered too dangerous.
‘No, it’s not dangerous… … .’
Is it an embarrassing time for students?
An interim evaluation will be made soon.
Assessment conducted twice a year. The time to grade the first half is approaching.
The time when the first rankings of freshmen who have just entered the academy are being made.
‘I think I’ll be able to secure enough grades, but.’
What I am considering is whether to aim for more than that without settling for now.
To what extent does the country raise the value of human beings and set the stage for success in this damn world?
You shouldn’t have to worry about it.
(I thought about it before, Xian. Do you really need to worry about your future only at the academy?)
‘ok? What are you talking about?’
Let’s wonder, in my head, Emily says as if giving advice.
(Are you aware that your skills are different from other kids?)
‘… … yes.’
(So you don’t think there’s anything you can’t live without, even outside the academy?)
‘That’s not wrong.’
Anyone who doesn’t have to go to school is fine. Of course I’m the one to be
That’s pretty much the truth for what the devil says. Why do the devil only say the right things?
‘I don’t think I can learn anything here.’
(Awesome.)
Of course not at all.
What I want cannot be obtained simply by studying at the academy.
‘Above all, most of the cases I know of are here… … . Or from those related to this place.’
(Should you be involved in that too?)
‘I think it will work out somehow even if I don’t.’
For example, the case of the appearance of the dungeon in Chapter 1.
Even if I didn’t intervene, that dungeon was somehow solved by the staff at the academy.
The Forest of Blood in Chapter 2.
Even if the monster completely descended, the powerful men of the empire would be dispatched to defeat it somehow.
However, the damage that occurred in the meantime was not considered.
If you don’t intervene, the world will perish.
‘It’s okay to live outside. But you don’t want to live in a heap of ruins, do you?’
In a war-torn country, the only way to develop one’s abilities is through miserable suffering.
‘The biggest problem is… … After all, it’s the unsettling point of the story in the game.’
There is another reason why I prioritize only optimal results.
I am suspicious because I know the story of the game.
‘If the normal ending… … . Or, what will happen to the world after the ending if the case is focused on failure to stop the incident?’
When this world was a game, I didn’t really care.
Even if any user is immersed in the ending of the game, there are very few cases where they pay attention to the ending.
Even more so, the true end is what the fan base of the game really loves. Only the ending cleared in the most optimal conditions and the coupling with the heroine each supports.
‘I didn’t say much during the game.’
No matter what the world is like, it will end if the main characters and heroines laugh under the brightly shining sky.
That’s all.
normal ending.
For example, damage caused by dungeons occurs.
A number of large cities have been evaporated by monsters that descended from the Forest of Blood.
Even if you repeat such failures, will there be a happy ending as long as you win the last chapter?
‘… … What’s important is what comes next.’
There is no back in the game.
In a world that has reached its ending, the future of the world that has suffered the damage is not considered.
Because that’s the ending where only the main character smiles pretentiously.
