025. Pride (2)
Fortunately, that guy named Argon didn’t have much time.
It was because his body was disintegrating after being eaten by the pieces of the hiven while he was confused while continuing to search for humans and wolves.
Violet magic, visible through cracks in his skin, constantly tormented him.
‘Ma’ gives Argon undeserved strength, but in fact it was poison that hastened destruction.
It is quite impossible for a mere human to handle the power of demons.
aaa with him!
Argon screams in pain. Hair falls out, skin falls off.
The more his pain intensifies, the more out of control the berserk.
Not much time left, but it became so rough that Cain could not handle it.
“Ouch!”
Cain could not withstand Argon’s attack and fell off. Cain struggles to get up after hitting his butt. The body is full of wounds.
“Can I really not help?”
I asked if this was enough to realize the limit.
“… … .”
Cain didn’t answer. Am I powerless to speak? Instead, his eyes were filled with instruments.
Right now, she is in a state of frantic desire to defeat that monster.
Cain ran again.
However, each time it is blocked by Argon’s claws, and if you aim for an opening and stab your sword, the barrier is activated.
When she loses her balance due to the recoil blocked by the barrier, Argon’s attack rages.
Bang bang!
Contrary to her will, it is gradually being pushed back.
If this continues, I will eventually run out of strength and collapse.
then it’s difficult I also need Cain’s power to defeat Argon.
I must join the battle before Cain falls.
That monster is a demon. There is my secret weapon to deal with the power of ‘Evil’.
I carefully took out the holy water from my bosom. Windsorbing’s tears glisten and show off their divinity.
It is said that the energy of ‘Ma’ shines the closer you are, but it seems to be true.
Mulberry.
took off the lid I put two fingers on the opening and turned it upside down. It looked like water, but it felt more like oil.
I traced the blade with my finger dipped in holy water. The black, coated with holy water, shone in the sunlight.
It’s so divine, I really feel like a crusader. It is even more real when you put the monster in front of you.
aaagh!
At the same time, Argon is also suffering quite a bit. The cracks in the cracked skin become larger. Purple magic began to flow like lava.
I reviewed in my head how the battle with Deianne was going. Since the fragments of the hyven were transplanted, the combat method was expected to be the same.
No problem. If you play like a game, you can win.
I stood next to Cain while Argon was suffering.
“… … you!”
Looking at the day Cain suddenly appeared, he said.
“Look at you.”
She was covered in blood, with no healthy spots on her body. Rather, it is a miserable appearance that makes you wonder if it was too late.
Something that I don’t know if it’s evil or pride was pushing her to the limit and holding on.
“Stop being stubborn.”
I’ve done enough to do it alone, so let’s take care of that first, he added.
“… … .”
Cain gritted his teeth.
She tried to overcome it on her own somehow, but she also realized it when she saw her own body condition.
that the limit has come
“Listen.”
I explained the plan I was going to talk about earlier.
“It’s a cherished item from Professor Julius.”
He showed Cain the tears of Windsorbing. Cain’s eyes widen. If you were from a noble family like her, you might have heard of it at least once.
“… … !”
“okay. With this, I can fight the demons.”
I threw Winsorbing Tears at her.
“Apply it to the sword.”
Cain looked at me and the holy water for a while, then silently put the holy water on his hand. She knew that there was really no other way.
“I break the barrier. If the barrier is broken, stop breathing.”
distribution of roles.
Anyway, I’m the only one who knows the weakness of that barrier, so this is reasonable. With my stats, it would still be difficult to land a critical hit on him.
“Can you?”
“… … yes.”
Cain answered in a low voice. He seems to have lost some confidence. I got the tears of Windsorbing back.
aaagh!
Patter.
A little bit of the reptile skin that was parasitic on his left arm fell off. is slowly collapsing
Now is your chance to attack.
“Make no mistake!”

Kicked the floor hard.
When Argon is suffering like that, it’s an opportunity.
Wow!
As I ran, Argon slammed his left arm into the ground. Hard building materials cracked like tofu.
Then, from the cracked ground, purple magic power radiated fiercely.
The Quagga River!
Magical power split the ground and rushed towards me.
With my developed senses, I predicted where the ground would crack and ran.
It was close, but nothing was impossible.
When I dodged the last attack and reached him, a shadow wrapped around me.
Power: [16/26]
Power: [10/26]
Increased Himminche stats by 2 each.
I kicked the ground with all my might.
My body rose high into the sky like a spring.
Weakness.
I know because I’ve played dozens or hundreds of times. The weak point of Hiven’s barrier is the apex. If you hit the head, it’s near the top of the head.
I can’t afford to wait for it to collapse and self-destruct!
“Haaap!”
I fell straight down. I took down the sword coated with holy water.
Argon reaches out. A barrier has been formed.
—!
great resistance.
Even though it was only a part of the skin transplanted, it was this much power.
Arms tremble. It’s about to lose the sword. I used to bite my molars.
Chiyiyi profit!
Smoke rose from where the barrier and my sword met.
Finally, the sanctity of the holy water began to melt the demon’s barrier. Argon panics and squeezes his strength again. However, the unstable magical power did not go his way.
The flow of magical power is broken, and the barrier has disappeared!
“Cain!”
She was already rushing fast. As if instinctively knowing when to attack.
A flame is burning at the tip of her sword. Cain’s ultimate move is ‘Fire Flower’.
A technique that increases destructive power with terrifying speed and one-point stabbing.
–!
Cain’s sword pierced Argon’s throat.
“Ugh… … !”
A little blood leaked from Argon’s mouth.
fatal… … won one This is for common people. Recovers quickly thanks to Hive’s fragments. Doesn’t die.
collapse instead.
After I landed on the floor, I immediately clung to Argon’s back.
aaa!
The mana inside him boils. It is like punching a hole in a volcano that is about to explode. The collapse happened in an instant.
Argon’s eyes, nose and mouth turned purple, and then exploded.
Quaang!
A wave of magical energy swept around him.
Cain was swept away as well. Far away, near Ponte.
Cain couldn’t get up anymore from the shock.
Aww!
I was still hanging on his back. Argon struggled, waving his arms to shake me off.
Every time that happened, Hyven’s skin fell off. There’s not much left now. That’s how high the power is, trying to make a last resort.
again, and again. The purple magic fills up.
This berserk is more difficult to prevent.
It should end here.
I finally couldn’t hold on and fell. Fortunately, the landing was stable.
Argon, which was filled with heat to the top of my head, did not leave me alone.
Even though his eyes, nose, and mouth were already bleeding, and his body was cracked and battered, he still had the power to kill me.
Argon groaned and waved his arms.
His arm joints grotesquely stretched and flew at me. It’s the speed of a whip tearing through the air.
If you focus, you will see… … !
Unless it’s a really serious gap, you can read the movement.
The trajectory of the waving arm is clearly drawn.
My goal is to cut off his arm, the transplanted part.
I read the trajectory and dodged my nails. His cheeks and shoulders were torn even though he only brushed them lightly. I didn’t care and ran.
I jumped like a lightning bolt and finally got into his radius.
He belatedly tried to recover his stretched arm, but it was already too late. Barriers are no longer created.
–!
He sighed and raised his sword upwards.
Argon’s arm fell with the sensation of cutting through flesh and bone.
“Ugh, aaagh!”
Argon grabbed his arm and screamed. Just got out of the hiven. Just keeping your sanity will do the trick.
Argon’s mind began to return. The beast’s fur and nails fell out.
When I came back to my senses, Argon met my eyes. Then he trembled.
“Sah, save me! my, that’s not what i wanted It’s all that, that woman… … !”
Argon looked at me and took a step back. I looked back. Cain is still down.
There are no eyewitnesses.
“Heuk!”
I groaned and fell to my knees with all my might.
I no longer have the strength to pursue you. in order to show that
Argon, who belatedly recognized the fact, started running without looking back.
“Ugh, ugh! aaa!”
Argon hurriedly disappeared through the strewn wreckage.
He’s definitely clumsy for a villain, and he doesn’t have the force.
Originally, that guy’s position was supposed to be occupied by the conspirator, Dandelio, but Argon was clearly lacking compared to him.
Could a guy like that really be Ackerman’s antipode?
Looking at it, it’s not at all. If the guy who will continue to fight and stir-fry with Ackerman is at that level… … .
As a result, the level of the game has gone down considerably.
Would you say you went down from hardcore to normal mode?
Anyway, even if there are some variables in the future, Ackerman and colleagues seem to be able to solve it.
Unless the villain changes at all, there won’t be anything I’ll do in the future.
I was able to relax only after he disappeared.
With this, I didn’t let him go, but I missed him.
I cut off the arm of the guy who ran away as in the original story, and removed the hiven’s power, so I handled it perfectly. Everything went according to my plan.
Now there is only one thing left. Just kill Deianne.
Then set everything right.
The story and my peaceful academy life.
As long as the story goes well, I have nothing to worry about.
You’re almost there.
I stepped off to check Cain’s condition.
“?”
Then, something caught on my foot. A fragment of the hiven came into my field of vision.
Don’t be persistent either.
Even though the piece was very small, it still had dangerous magical powers.
Perseok! I stomped on it and crushed it into small pieces. To make sure it got rid of it, I even showered her with Winsorbing’s tears.
The demon’s power disappeared without leaving a trace.
* * *
Cain was still down.
Neither Fonte nor Cain were in danger of life.
Fonte had a big bump on his head, but it seems he passed out after hitting his head.
In Cain’s case, the wound on his shoulder was severe, so he dripped Winsorbing’s tears onto the wound.
Divinity purified the remaining demonic energy from her wound.
“Ugh… … .”
Perhaps it was because of the pain, Cain groaned and came to his senses.
I was going to leave it alone and head for Ackerman. I got into trouble.
Cain struggles to open one eye. Our eyes met.
“… … you?”
She recognized me and tried to get up. But the wound was deep, so I couldn’t move right away. Cain groaned and leaned against the rubble.
“that… … What happened to the monster?”
As if he finally remembered, Cain rolled his eyes and looked for Argon. Argon, of course, is not here. because it’s already gone
“I missed it.”
If it was originally, Cain should have missed it. I took over that role. Since he was the one who swallowed the demon’s power, Cain would have killed him.
So even when the argon exploded, I was the only one who dodged by hanging on my back.
It would be much easier to let him go if Cain collapsed in the end. I’m sorry Cain was hurt.
“… … If only I hadn’t been like this.”
Cain clenched his fists. I couldn’t even clench my fist properly.
I got up from my seat. There is no time to take care of Cain.
You must go to Ackerman.
“me… … are you laughing I ignored you like that, but get your help.”
Cain said to the back of my head as I was about to go. I had no choice but to stop. It is a trembling voice as if crying is about to explode.
I know the meaning behind her words.
This time, I couldn’t prove anything on my own.
i’m trash
I have no talent.
The shame of the Abella family.
A thousand thoughts will come to mind.
your heart will ache
I thought about giving him some comfort, but I couldn’t leave Cain with words of encouragement just yet. It is a useless observation.
He simply replied, “No.”
After that, the words that came out of Cain’s mouth were unexpected.
“Sorry. I’m stubborn… … Hmmm.”
Apologizing to me out of the blue, and then bursting into tears at the end.
He wrapped his arms around his knees and buried his face. I started to shed tears in earnest. Sniff your nose. Cain wept bitterly.
“Relax.”
What can I do?
Even though it is difficult now, Cain must go through this process to be saved and grow.
“Ahhh.”
My heart hurts from crying so sadly, but I left Cain’s tears behind and ran again.
* * *
The shadow attached to Hoya was on the first floor of the Magical Professor Building.
In other words, they couldn’t get far and were fighting under my feet.
Just then it started to rain.
It pours very vigorously.
The gymnasium, where final exams are still being held, will close the ceiling and proceed without any problems.
They don’t know our fight.
Deianne injects demonic energy into the power unit of the Orb, and no one, including Pompeius, can detect it.
In addition, since they fight while being trapped inside the barrier of the hiven, they cannot hear any magic waves or explosions.
It is entirely a fight between first year cadets.
Professors who need to protect their cadets are bound to be late. It’s a game in the first place, so it’s natural.
don’t even wish
If it rains, it means that we have entered the final chapter of the boss battle.
This means that Ackerman has awakened his second skill, ‘Water Dragon’, and has entered the final phase of the boss battle.
Deianne’s barrier is broken due to the main character’s offensive, and she is hit with a fatal blow, and the magic she has barely suppressed bursts out.
“… … huh? Aren?”
When I arrived at the first floor of the building expecting that, the situation was over for some reason.
Deianne collapsed with a sword lodged in her heart. It’s Ackerman’s sword. Looking at her torn wounds, it seemed that she had been hit by a ‘water dragon’.
Ackerman and Hoya are also on the floor. He was holding his breath as he watched his chest swell.
The surroundings were a mess. Full of fierce traces.
It looked like a place where war had swept away.
Only Siana was standing there unscathed.
While summoning a huge magic spell into the air.
Seeing me, Shiana loosened her stiff expression and asked me.
“Aren! What is Aren doing here?”
what. Did Cyana tear it all up?
