232 – Goal (9)
#14
“-The light will be with you.”
It was a total mess outside.
Aside from the lack of space for the injured, such as the infirmary or temple for each class, in the middle of this wide square where all those who could be caught in shock were evacuated.
“Pacheon Samryun (破天三倫), Chain (碎).”
“Shoot them all!”
“Be alert! Left wing, look at the back of the main unit! If even one person leaves, the firepower will run out!”
Magicians of at least 7th tier or higher poured out magic of various attributes while lined up like a magic corps, and Abel Lioner, who can be called a sword master, showed off his seasonal skills, and other high-level Forces that could be said to be luxurious because they could not do it, fired one point at a time toward ‘that’.
Cooong, cooong, cooong!
Gil Leon stomped his foot, holding the hilt with both hands.
Every step was as heavy as a rock.
“Huh!”
After rushing through the steam created by water and fire magic, Gil Leon gathered strength in his lower body and leaped as if to explode, making the massive body glide for a while.
“I flew!”
A professor shouted in astonishment.
Yes.
The Paladin was flying.
The distance between my feet and the ground was over ten meters. It was almost as if there was an illusion of wings hanging from the back.
The war situation was visible at Gileon’s feet.
People who have become smaller like miniature models. The magic they fired, the sword attack, and the like. However, the giant stands in front as if to protect ‘that’. After being softly absorbed without giving a meaningful blow, the magic and sword baptism that returned to them as it was. A divine shield that unfolds in a hemispherical shape before being hit directly.
‘This is the end.’
It was a battle over and over again. If this continues, there will be no progress at all. Since he had already used the highest level of sacred art, it might be a burden on his body, but Gileon didn’t care about anything.
“-Meet the Dawning!”
For now, the priority is to follow the emperor.
Guardian of the frontier.
Gileon raised his sword high as if to raise it. At the same time, the sword body, which had been emitting a dazzling light, continued to grow. The sword itself did not lengthen. The divine power bestowed on the sword was tangible and welled up.
Kiiiiing—!
Is this the shape of the holy sword in mythology? The sacred sword, which was three or four times larger than Gileon’s body, stretched upward as if to pierce the high sun.
“Huh!”
Quaaa!
Then he struck down with all his might.
Toward the giant’s head.
─aaa… !
Gakgagak!
The head was split in half. The giant, who had not budged even with most sacred arts, could not absorb Gileon’s blow.
In Gileon’s field of vision, black darkness was reflected in two directions. He split the darkness with just a ray of light.
The paladin who flew in the sky fell to the ground and at the same time cut the giant in two with a beam of light.
Charaaa
Suddenly!
The giant, who was constantly regenerating, never got back together.
Kuuugh—!
Gileon landed without difficulty.
After the shock wave spread around, a circular crater was dug into the floor where Gileon fell. Breakthrough pieces bounced off the armor, but it didn’t make a single small scratch.
“… ….”
After taking a moment to catch his breath, Leon grabbed the holy sword and glared at him. It was to punish immediately if there was any sign of regeneration.
However, after the shadow giant was split in half, his severed body began to seep into the floor as it melted like wax wax.
So when one of the students who became the medium of the giant appeared from the shadows, Elena, who ran faster than Gileon, supported the student.
“Hey, hey. Are you alive?”
“… ….”
He was a short, skinny male student. She put her ear to his face for a moment, then she nodded her head with a relieved look.
“…… I’m hiding thank god. It was good.”
It doesn’t seem like the life force is being taken away. This is good news, but not all problems have been resolved yet. There was one more important thing left.
“Here! Someone come and move him!”
“Yes, yes!”
After Elena assigned her students to one of the clumsy-looking professors, she looked up at Gil Leon, who came close by.
“… Uh, what is it You did well. Are you tall?”
“There is no need for small talk. Did you figure out what it was?”
“Ah, that….”
That the giant guarded.
A mysterious black orb that floated in the square sky as if to block the sun. It emits ominous demonic energy… It looked like a black sun. To an empire that regards the sun as sacred, this may seem like blasphemy….
Elena frowned.
“I don’t know.”
“… Don’t you know? Can’t you just use your eyes?”
“So, I don’t know if I look at it.”
She lifted the blindfold, then released it, lifted it again, then put it back on. Elena narrowed her brows as if she didn’t like her either.
“One thing is for sure, we have to destroy that quickly. Just looking at it, doesn’t it look ominous? If you leave it alone, something terrifying might come out.”
“A wild dog.”
Gil Leon, who Najik had called Elena by the name of annihilation, reaped the divine power bestowed on her sword and lowered her stance. He knelt down on one knee, placed her wrist cuffs on top of her, and looked at Elena indifferently.
“If you don’t want to insult His Majesty, who ordered the frontier to be defended, tell the truth. Are your secrets more valuable than your life? If so, I will make sure to carry your secrets to the grave. Right here, right here.”
“… ….”
Helena was silent for a moment.
And scratching her head.
“… Aye, yes! It’s not that you can’t see it, it’s that you can’t see it. Why! Do you pick?! My abilities are not infinite. It wears out with use….”
“Then check it out.”
“Uhhhhh?”
Gileon stretched out his hand wrapped in the gauntlet. Her target is Elena’s face, most notably her eyepatch covering her left eye. Without a moment to stop, Gileon pulled Elena’s eyepatch, and she saw what was inside.

Jet-black eyes. Darkness deep enough to inadvertently mistake it for an open hole filled Elena’s left eye.
Right after that, the bridge of Elena’s nose crinkled.
“Do you want to die? Anywhere.”
“Looking at me, there is no reaction, so it must be true.”
“Evil!”
Gileon put the eyepatch back to its original position. Slap. The eyepatch, pulled back by her elasticity, hit Elena’s left eye.
“You bastard!”
Her temper flared, Elena stretched out her fist with her goblin expression, but Gil Leon grabbed the fist with ease. She was motionless like a rock. Gil Leon, who was looking at her fluttering arm, silently expressed his appreciation.
“My strength has weakened. Have you become an old wild dog?”
“You… ! Keugh… !”
“Superhumans are also human beings. You should know.”
Gil Leon released her hand from Elena’s fist. Then, as Elena assumed her martial arts stance, she breathed heavily and silently glared at Gileon.
Glancing at the black sun still rising above them, Leon shifts his gaze back to Elena and opens her mouth.
“It has been like this since before. Unless it was limited, I never borrowed someone else’s hand.”
“… What bullshit.”
“I didn’t recognize my colleagues, so I looked like a stray dog, biting anyone. As you know, mad dogs usually die early. They either self-destruct because they can’t take care of themselves, or die from being shot by a hunter’s arrow.”
“Are you going to go to death so that I can die early?”
“No, just the opposite.”
Elena was taken aback by the straightforward words.
“I trained and tamed it as a hunting dog, but there is nothing more futile than dying while chasing chickens. Chasing chickens on the roof should be left to the hawks. Not a hound.”
“… ….”
Elena loosened her neck.
“Apart from the meaning, is Malponsae unusual? Shall I return your face? Haven’t you been hit by anyone lately?”
“You know you don’t have time for that, but you manage to talk. It doesn’t matter as long as you have the energy to fight me, but don’t hold on to my ankles.”
“Ha!”
Who’s grabbing someone’s ankle?
It didn’t sound as funny as that.
“I think I should worry about you rather than me. How are you going to look at His Majesty’s face when you return to the imperial palace later? Suho is a piece of shit, and rumors about the frontier defense system being lame have spread all over the neighborhood.”
“Shut up, wild dog. Prepare your posture during the time to make noise.”
“If you entrust it, you have to have the ability and trust to entrust it. Can I not go out with this stupid report? And anyway, I’m a body that I’ll search for like this until I die. That’s my-“
“I’m sorry you guys were having a good time.”
It was a boy in a blue uniform who burst in.
As the two looked back, Abel looked up.
“Anyway, it doesn’t seem necessary to break it.”
Suddenly, the three pairs of gazes rose.
There was a courtesy black sphere.
Damn it.
Damn it.
A sphere with cracks on its surface.
“… Breaks! Everyone step back!”
Once grasped the situation at once, Elena shouted.
The aggregate of demonic energy is about to explode. Living humans would have to crouch behind a divine shield if at all possible. Otherwise, you will be poisoned by that thick demonic energy.
Procrastination, procrastination….
The outer surface of the black sphere popped out in places as if boiling, and then went back in again.
Rurrureuk!
Then, at a certain point, the movement became more violent, and now it stabbed the air with sharp spines like sea urchins.
“-Protect us with eternal light.”
As he recited the prayer, Gileon raised his sword neatly. The tip of the sword pointed towards the sky. Soon, the sword exploded with a bright light, and the light spread widely, covering Gileon himself, Elena, and Abel. They, including Abel, were ready to attack something inside at any time.
Kaaang!
Finally, when the sphere shattered.
As soon as she confirmed that her divine shield successfully blocked the mass of demonic energy that had been randomly shot at her, Elena, who was about to rush at her, had no choice but to stop without even getting up from her seat.
“Uh.”
The giant guarding the black sphere was not one. There were two in total, both of which fell, but were reborn.
The shadows were still gathering in the corner, so the priests were intensively purifying the place….
As the sphere broke, the gathering shadows melted again. Everything went back to its place as if it were looking for its owner.
The demonic energy that touched the divine shield was destroyed as it was, and the demonic energy that had clung to the outer wall of the building as if it were corroding was also turned into black smoke by the sun. It vanished so cleanly that it was futile. Warm sunlight illuminated the spot.
Hundreds of people who were expecting a full-fledged second game had no choice but to be dazed for a moment.
It was the same for Elena.
It wasn’t the Great Demon that finally descended from the sphere, nor was it the explosion of a gigantic demonic energy, nor was it a completely unexpected existence… No, it’s completely unexpected.
I didn’t know it would be this absurd.
Wheeying….
She has a plan for Dunn’s junior.
A terrible junior who couldn’t even see where he went after the black sphere appeared.
Ezio craniel,
It was falling from the sky.
With a mysterious bloody man.
“… ….”
What is that bastard?
#15
Meanwhile.
“aaagh!”
Mu was mad and on the verge of jumping.
─Come here! Come to me!
“Why, only you. Why only you! Don’t take my Ezio! Give it back! Give it back!”
“Ugh, no, no…. Don’t throw it away….”
“Ahahahahaha! No one can stop me! I am free!”
I wonder if I thought, ‘Do I have to be involved in this madness just because I was deliberately victimized?’.
Avoiding the giant’s grip, avoiding Rubia’s magic, escaping from Yuri’s runaway psychokinesis, making Stella unable to take off her clothes…… She was doing all by herself what even ten of her bodies were lacking.
Of course, it was impossible to do it perfectly, and as a result, Mew’s face was in a rather horrendous state.
Blood dripped from the wound on his cheek. His hair was messy and matted. Some clothes were burned in the fire. Even so, she did not let go of the sword. Gradually, it becomes difficult to maintain the magic sword. How long do I have to stay like this?
‘I don’t have time to be like this… !’
Apart from following Ezio, the highest priority was to knock these idiots out. But it wasn’t that easy. There wasn’t a good gap, and because some teachers were also hurt, it was more difficult to deal with, and above all, the giant and Rubia were too tricky.
The giant had no slashing effect, so in the end, the only answer was to avoid the attack, and Rubia, in a state of runaway, even raised a colorful multi-magic circle and poured magic baptism toward Mew.

Just like this.
“… I hate you I hate you. I don’t want to hate anyone, but when I think of you, I hate everything.”
Ice spears, fire arrows, and even wind magic to speed them both up even faster.
Ugh….
An arrowhead revealed its head in the red magic circle aimed at its target. It was the back of Mew, who had just ducked to avoid the giant’s grip.
“Don’t take away my place.”
Pyong—!
As soon as Rubia reached out her hand, a flaming arrow fired like a ballista. The same goes for the ice spear that appeared next to it, holding the cold.
Two magics that shifted to 2nd gear flew in.
“…… !”
In a chilling goosebumps, Mew turned her body. She hastily raised her arm. She gathered what little mana she had left and put it into her sword. Roaring!
“-A while ago!”
Quang!
Slash the flame arrow upwards.
“-It’s hard!”
Quasak!
I hit the window sill of the ice spear.
Immediately after, I looked back briefly and then looked ahead again.
I kicked the ground towards Rubia who was chanting.
“-I didn’t even open the portal!”
Very lively!
If you come to your senses, I’ll kill half of you!
Percussion—!
The surrounding scenery passed rapidly. Myu, who was charging in, bent her arms inside. A burning fire ball from the magic circle created by Rubia obstructed her path, but Mu gritted her teeth and slashed it in two and ran at once.
But the interruption continued once more. A crack in space appeared in front of the newly created fireball.
As Rubia lightly beckoned, the fireball went right into the gap.
“… ! What?!”
Roaring!
It appeared from an open gap above Mew’s head and fell vertically. Should I call it a small meteo? It was a very irregular attack.
There is no time to respond-
I can’t help it. The distance was too close. It will explode the moment it is cut with the sword, and then you yourself will be caught in the explosion. The angle wasn’t sharp enough to cut cleanly anyway.
Kwaaak! Mew dipped her sword into the ground and orbited her body. And she threw her body to the side as if to bounce off. Kwaaang! At the close timing, the fireball hit the floor and exploded, and Mew rolled several times on the floor, carving sore wounds on her skin.
“Ugh… kuh….”
Her whole body tingled. It didn’t hurt to death, but I was annoyed. Why do I have to fall here like this.
Anger was a good driving force. As Rubia aimed her magic at her again, Mew flew her body at a speed that was incomparable to her previous one.
“You are, really, a nuisance!”
“Kyaaak-“
I soon approached Rubia and took a picture of Rubia’s back with Pommel. After her little scream, Rubia climbed on top of her while she was flopping down and hit her back neck with the blade of her hand. She had a feeling that she was a little overpowered, maybe because she was emotional, but she just had to die. What.
After knocking out Rubia like that….
“Ah.”
She just turned her head away.
The giant’s grip, which had approached without a word, was spread out right in front of Myuu’s nose.
‘Strength….’
It’s really hard now.
Darkness fell. Mew closed her eyes tightly.
… By the way.
“…… Uh?”
Nothing has changed.
When Mew opened her eyes again, her grip remained still.
It wasn’t just that.
─Ah, ah ah…
The shadow melts like mud. A painful moan rang out. Mew stared at the scene with her bewildered face.
“… What.”
The shadows peeled off layer by layer. When all the shadows finally returned to their places, the monster that was so threatening was nowhere to be found, leaving only one man kneeling in the corner.
A miserable looking man who is coughing up blood.
It was Carmelo Bagrid.
“… ….”
I don’t know what it is….
Is it over?
How are you? Things get a little easier when there are no distractions. Mu, who was breathing heavily, looked around her.
She didn’t even have to faint, and Yuri and Stella fell to the floor like puppets with strings cut off. It was because the shadows that were eroding her body and mind had disappeared.
Myu, who looked up at the sky for a moment, stumbled and stood up. She moved away from the body of Rubia, who was riding her, put her sword in the scabbard and walked in front of her.
“… ….”
So when they reached Carmelo, who had lost her mind, Mew dragged her feet backwards with irritation that welled up to her chin. It was, so to speak, resentment.
Quack!
He kicked Carmelo in the stomach vigorously.
Cuck.
Carmelo coughed up blood.
Puffed up….
Carmelo leaned forward and fell down.
“… It’s better now after.”
Mu then smiled as if he felt refreshed.
As expected, I just didn’t have to die.
