126. orb (6)
Vision becomes clear after darkening. Of course, the leap magic worked perfectly.
Cyana safely brought the three of us to a large rock at the top of the mountain.
“Cheap, we fight!”
No matter how much she is a princess, it would be amazing to have this level of leap magic, but Elace didn’t care at all and looked down and shouted.
The battle was fierce. Apparently so.
However, if you look closely, it was an overwhelming difference in power rather than fierce.
Ains was dealing with Ackerman’s party even while using weather manipulation magic.
This was meant to deal with the cadets with only 30% of their original strength.
Moreover, since its very nature cares for its students very much, it does not use truly threatening magic. It is to fight at a level that only moderately subdues the cadets.
Between Eins and Ackerman, there was a accumulated difference of decades of experience. Because it is Ackerman’s party, it is practically no different from enduring.
“We are going to help too!”
Elise called out urgently. Even though she couldn’t last even for a second in that fight, she tried to run recklessly.
To be honest, Elise’s skills were only a hindrance.
Her existence is a variable… … I thought it was. There was one other possibility.
Looking back at the flow of the story so far, we come to one conclusion.
‘Hidden ending.’
The story is progressing with the flow that I had thought of as the third option from before.
It was exactly the flow I remembered when I saw Ackerman coming to save us and Lena talking about her inner situation, who should have left silently.
Ackerman originally agonized between Pompey and Eins, but in the hidden ending, neither of them chooses. Rather, trying to reconcile the two is the third option.
Think about why this has happened.
There is little evidence to say that they took the hidden ending route simply because of me. It was clear that there was someone else who had a decisive influence on Ackerman’s psychology.
The person closest to you who listened to your concerns and gave you advice.
The most likely person is, of course, Princess Elise Trello.
‘No, I’m sure.’
Gongnyeo is much smarter and wiser than I thought. She would have helped the inexperienced Ackerman stand upright.
A character who did not appear at all in the original work is having a huge influence. It was a positive trend, so I thought it was fortunate.
“Hey, are you there? Are you going to just watch, seniors?”
Judging by how she bravely stepped forward without thinking about her own safety, this woman was also really sincere to Ackerman.
Now Ackerman needs her. If you’re on the way to the hidden ending route, you’re still confused because you can’t make up your mind.
“Aren, what are you going to do?”
Siana asked, looking at me who didn’t move. Looking at Ellace, it overlaps with Shiana, who cares for me without hesitation.
It is correct to send it to Ackerman as well. so conclude
“Princess.”
“yes.”
“You go first.”
“… … yes?”
There is no reason for me and Cyana to intervene here. My purpose is to feed Ackerman and Bell’s experience, so let’s leave it out this time.
In the first place, I didn’t want to intervene in the main story. I’m just a third-rate extra who shouldn’t even be here.
After falling into this world, for the first time, the story is going smoothly without me. This time, it’s really about seeing Ackerman’s performance from the standpoint of an extra.
smile faintly
“We will look back and see an opportunity. It’s a waste to attack everyone head-on.”
“ah… … ! Such a trick!”
As Elace punched her palms, her eyes widened as if she had realized something.
“Then I will hurry to help. Thanks for taking me there!”
“Hey, princess.”
I turned around and called Elise to stop me. Elise looked at me again and answered.
“yes?”
“Please help Ackerman.”
It wasn’t such a simple story to simply help in a fight. If you were a princess, you would have understood the meaning of my words right away.
“sure.”
Sure enough, Elace smiled lightly, gently gripping the hem of her skirt and bending her knees.
After taking a simple example, Elise jumped off the rock without hesitation. You can’t be a really strong woman.
“Aren.”
“yes.”
After Elace left, Ciana called me. Since when did that happen, he was holding my arm tightly.
“Can we really not help?”
Shiana’s expression was full of worry.
In fact, if Cyana intervenes in that fight, the battle is over within a minute.
If it was 1:1, Eins would fight hard against Shiana, but since it was a battle with many including Shiana, the end would be dull.
“yes. We just have to watch.”
It was at the last moment that Siana had to use her strength. From now on, I will only watch the fight as a spectator.
“Ugh… … ?”
He said he was attacked! Shiana stomps her feet, asking what the hell are you talking about.
“I know when I see it. Sianna, if I talk to you later, will you use your strength then?”
“later?”
“yes. later.”
Siana pouted her lower lip. It was like I didn’t quite understand. well, that’s natural
Even if it was right away, I didn’t want to miss this fun scene that came for the first time.
The sky flashed brightly, fierce as if in anger.
It was quite the end of the century weather, but I calmly sat down on the edge of a rock and patted the side.
“Siana. sit down. Let’s watch together.”
The final phase of Act 3 is quite a spectacle. This is enough to look like a VIP seat.
“Aren is really unique when you see him sometimes.”
Although Shiana constantly expressed her doubts, she did not refuse anything I asked her to do.
Sianna sat down beside me.
* * *
Akerman’s sword strike destroys Eins’ unique magic, ‘Ice Snowflake’.
As soon as the snowflakes that freeze the air from the ground take over the area, Ackerman’s flame splitting melts the ice snowflakes.
Cain and Hoya also did not stand still. Each of them fought against ice magic with the skills they had trained.
Ice and flame collide to create steam. The atmosphere is hazy. The field of view is limited.
Ponte aims for that gap. Enormous energy bursts from the extremely trained thighs. Fonte, who was fired like a bullet, threw forward a spear wrapped in an aura.
The tip of a spear sticks out through the fog. Eins was taken aback.
“Huh!”
Before the sharp spear reached her, Eins’ eyes reflected magic light. A protection magic that was activated immediately.
The tip of Ponte’s spear collided with Eins’ protection magic. Ponte falls out with a booming sound.
Belle, a candidate for a saint, immediately closes her eyes tightly and sings the blessing of healing to Ponte. Although weak, Bell’s prayers are immediately manifested and are protecting her colleagues.

Kurur… … .
Quaang–!
bang, bang!
Lightning falls menacingly around. The floor and rocks are broken, and debris is scattered in all directions.
The mana has risen enough. Eins slowly began to guide the lightning toward the orb.
If you fall into the orb even once, it’s all over.
It wasn’t just Acker who would leave it alone. Ackerman strengthened his body with magic and jumped high. There was also Hoya’s covering fire.
“Dangerous!”
Cain sensed danger and shouted, but it was too late.
Eins scatters red magic stones into the air. Each is small in size, but each one is a magic crystal of high purity.
One magic circle is stored for each magic stone.
Hoya’s arrow hit the magic stone. Recoil magic that activates immediately.
As much as the impact received by the magic crystal is reflected to other targets.
“Cheak!”
Hoya and Ackerman collapse on the floor. The shock is great. The pain felt like being hit with several arrows.
There is a gap. Eins’ eyes lit up. Now is the time to really finish it.
Eins closed his eyes and concentrated, raising the orb even higher.
Parts… … An electric current flows around the orb.
“Yeahap!”
Ponte throws a spear with spirit. The spear was fired with a blue aura.
――!
Ponte’s spear flew through the wind and pierced Eins’ protective magic with an explosion.
Eins furrowed his eyebrows at the unexpected blow. But that’s it.
Her high-level magic has already been completed, and she is able to wield nature’s lightning freely.
Before the spear reached her,
――!
Flashing, flashes of light fell.
Fonte’s spear is smashed and scattered in the sky.
“no!”
Fonte fell to the floor.
It was a javelin with a full blow. Ponte had poured almost all of his magic and stamina into it, so it was difficult to hold out any longer. As he was in charge of the avant-garde, he consumed the most stamina.
But there was another reason why he fell. Ponte is a natural weapon collector. It was because his cherished spear had been shattered.
The shock is great. His stamina is also low. Fonte lost his will to fight. Hoya also fainted from the impact of the recoil magic.
All that’s left is Cain and Bell.

Kurleung!
The dark clouded sky seems to have come to an end.
Cain, impatient, gritted his teeth and started running towards Eins.
Act 3 enters the final phase.
At this time, a woman comes running. It’s not very fast, but it’s a wild run.
The woman ran straight to the fallen Ackerman.
“Ackerman! Ackerman!”
Ackerman raises his head at the familiar voice.
“Go, princess?”
Ackerman’s expression was tinged with astonishment. It is the face that asks why you are here.
“Ackerman. Are you okay? look where You’re hurt. It hurts a lot?”
The guy you like is hurt. Elise put on the saddest expression she could make.
Flashes, the sky flickers, and thunder rips through the eardrums.
Even at this moment, Cain and Bell are working hard to stop Eins.
Cain’s fierce blade was barely interfering with Eins’ concentration.
“Princess. Hurry up and avoid your seat. Dangerous.”
“I can’t let Ackerman do dangerous things alone.”
The princess rolls up her arms. No matter how bad her skills were as a freshman, she was determined to contribute even a little bit.
Elise’s obstinacy is best known to Ackerman.
If I tried to stop her here, it was obvious that she would use her energy and attack Eins.
can’t see it like that
‘I have to solve it.’
All the culprits ask questions that Ackerman, who he believed to be himself, had put in.
“Princess.”
“Yes Yes?”
“I want to ask you something.”
Elise looks back in bewilderment.
“Gee, now? what the hell?”
“If what I think is right hurts other people, is it right?”
flash the sky is angry again
Even in this critical situation, Gongnyeo thinks as she sees the stupid Ackerman asking a serious question.
‘Really, this man can’t live without me… … .’ do.
‘I really can’t stop it.’
The gongnyeo answered with a smile.
“Heal the wound. Whatever choice you make comes with responsibility. It’s about convincing them.”
The princess affectionately caresses Ackerman’s cheek. Ackerman stared at Elise. Today’s eyes are exceptionally beautiful.
“I will help you. Ackerman. Be brave.”
――!
The bell of enlightenment rings in Ackerman’s head.
“… … Thank you, Elise.”
“Just calling my name… … !”
The agony is gone. The thundercloud reached its peak. Cain and Bell, who were struggling, were also unable to fight.
All that remains is Ackerman alone.
Ackerman, who has attained enlightenment, awakens.
The protagonist of the world begins to walk the ‘Road of the Hero’.
Its eyes are bright, and mana overflows. Ackerman feels an unknown power. Confidence that you can do anything.
“Princess. stand back for a while Dangerous.”
Eins is knocked down here. I made up my mind that I would take responsibility for the next day as well.
Ackerman grabbed his sword and stood up.
Jigsaw Jigsaw!
Current is gathering in the orb. Now that all the hindrances had disappeared, it was time to make a decision.
“Please do not disturb. Cadet Ackerman.”
Eins warned. She, too, looked tired. Even so, Eins’ high-ranking magic, ‘Ice Tempest’, raged fiercely. Then the ice cubes began to clump together.
The storm severely blocked Ackermann’s progress. But Ackerman persevered.
Ackerman raises his head. There is no flicker in the eyes.
“I will stop.”
The worry is over.
Ackerman’s sword, free from agony, shone sharper than ever. Aura covers the sword. The enormous amount of mana increased the size of the aura indefinitely. The aura was poised to pierce the clouds in the sky.
parts. electricity goes through
Ackerman jumped high into the sky. In order to deliver a blow with the whole body to only cut the lightning.
Was my heart in a hurry? Ackerman’s field of vision was narrow. I missed the ice orb flying from the side.
‘Ah, I can’t avoid it at this rate…’ … !’
Shall I wield a sword?
Then the distance is not close, and the lightning cannot be destroyed.
‘how… … ?’
It was the moment when Ackerman stood at the crossroads of a choice.
The black smoke that appeared out of nowhere devours Ackerman’s body. There was no time to react.
After the dark battle, when my sight came back, the falling lightning was right in front of me.
I don’t know what happened. The important thing is that now, he has transcended time and space.
flashing flashes. Ackerman struck a conversion blow towards it.
―――!
Lightning… … Cracked.
