The sound of an explosion resounds.
Most people would have dismissed it as just an accident, but some have noticed that this was a harbinger of the incident.
The first to move were Ahn Joo-hyuk and Fujiwara Reiko, members of the Ten River and leading six guilds.
I had to do a lot of work.
People had to be evacuated in a short time, and enough people had to be attached to avoid another problem.
We had to identify the casualties at the scene and take immediate action, and we had to move to find out the cause of the explosion and eliminate the cause, or at least prevent further casualties.
explosion.
It was such an explosion that the eardrums of people in the distance burst.
It was impossible to even estimate how many casualties there would be in the vicinity.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Each of them mumbled something as if competing, improving their mana.
The first to respond was Reiko Fujiwara, an old woman holding a fan in one hand.
“It’s time for a meal.”
With those words, white wings spread out from behind her.
No, it wasn’t wings.
It was a lot of paper.
Those that looked like crosses and those that looked like people were floating around behind her.
The old woman stared at him for a moment, then gently placed her hand on the back of Ahn Joo-hyuk, who was right next to him.
“ruler.”
She connected the path of magic through the place Ahn Joo-hyuk deliberately left open.
At that action, Ahn Joo-hyuk, as always, only felt slightly dizzy.
He was able to do what he intended to do without difficulty.
He soon became a light.
A warm light began to flow from every corner of his mana, and the source from which it flowed.
And the light was transmitted to her through him, and then it began to flow to the countless papers floating behind her.
The paper drawn by Reiko Fujiwara can contain the magic and power of others.
The papers with the power of recovery that squeezed Ahn Joo-hyuk’s mana to the limit were flashing with a strange light.
As her fingers moved, a huge number of sheets of paper that could not be counted began to cross the air, turning in different directions.
If you run to the scene and try to grasp the situation again and take action, it will inevitably be too late.
We had to deal with not only the rescue of the victims, but also those who hid within the academy.
So, they boldly gave up on the latter.
The two of them stared blankly at the result of squeezing their respective magical powers to the limit with a look of exhaustion.
All that was left was left to the other four colleagues.
“… Are you okay?”
“What is it, woo? mean?”
“You know?”
“Well… … .”
The old woman muttered, breathing hard.
“Of course I hope not, but… … I didn’t feel good. In any case, whoever it is, the child must suffer quite a bit.”
Ahn Joo-hyuk nodded his head at those words.
“Iknow, right. You have to get used to it, you just can’t get used to it, like that.”
Suspicious of colleagues and setting traps again.

At the moment when a loud noise resounded, the people gathered in the vacant lot looked at one place in an instant.
They were all different in race, age, and s*x, but they had the same mark on their body, and each had a weapon in common.
And the fact that they burn themselves under the same belief.
“Looks like the time has come.”
The woman leading the people who seemed to be dozens of people looked at the clock and murmured.
In front of him stood two men and a woman.
“So, shall we start moving now? As promised in advance, if you find a target, please capture it or tell us.”
“Don’t worry. Even though we look like this, they live on a single trust.”
The man smiled as he chewed gum with a click, click sound.
Behind him, a man with a black mask covering his mouth and a woman holding a cylinder were making an expression as if he wanted to finish it quickly.
“Then, will you take care of yourselves as promised?”
When the man reached out his hand, the woman who appeared to be a member of the crusade paused for a moment and then grabbed his hand.
After a while, she bowed her head and began to lead the people she had brought to somewhere.
The man who was watching the scene spit gum on the floor and said as if giving orders to the two people standing behind him.
“This time, the two of you move together. ‘Cause I’ll be moving alone You assassinate, I steal stuff. Let me make contact with those rats who are hiding.”
“What do you do with the fanatics and the psychopaths?”
“Are you sitting with that as a question now?”
At the woman’s words, he snorted as if it wasn’t even funny.
“Whether or not these assholes go after them, is that for us to know?”
At his words, both men and women smiled.
Because it was what he said.

“It’s time.”
Isaac, who had been eating the hot dog even at the moment of the binge, ate all of it and got up from his seat.
Dmitry stood around him like a stone statue.
“How is the situation?”
“Everyone is waiting for the professor’s orders. Our compatriots are hiding outside the academy and waiting.”
The compatriots that Dmitry referred to were, unlike them, those who had the appearance of a monster rather than a human.
According to the original plan, if there was a commotion inside the academy, the red case would cause a bigger commotion, and in line with that, the compatriots would be sent from the outside and stirred.
Isaac nodded and said in a calm voice.
“Tell me to go back. The situation has changed due to a sudden change, so today’s event is cancelled.”
“Yes.”
At Isaac’s words, Dmitry immediately dialed the phone.
A voice filled with anger came from the phone, but Dmitry just repeated the same thing.
After a while, Dmitry hung up and looked at Isaac.
“Can you tell me why?”
“Simple Ichiya, Dmitry-kun. It is a simple calculation indeed.”
He stretched out his fingers.
It was a habit when teaching students in Urea.
“First of all, we know for sure that they are trying to take advantage of us, and we don’t have to suffer. I’m expecting them to think we’re stupid and get attention by installing them on their own.”
The middle finger unfolded after the index finger.
“Secondly, it is enough for me, Dmitry-kun, and our three children, to achieve our goals. Where is the need to alert others to the need for a group of people to do a job that is small enough? It’s important to work efficiently anyway. Just like the fact that my sister and I emphasized to you.”
Dmitry nodded.
Finally, the ring finger was opened.
“Last third.”
Then another roar was heard in the distance.
It was a sound different from the binge, but with a greater threat.
Dmitry turned his head and clenched his teeth in surprise.
It was because the mind already knew, but the body did not.
There was a black dragon in the sky.
It was not a dragon considered evil in the West, but a dragon worshiped in the East itself.
It flew in the sky and looked down like it was watching the ground.
Then, at one point, as if the dragon had set its goal, Dmitry, who had been idly watching the dragon turn in an instant and flew towards it, let out a small breath.
It was an unrealistic sight.
“Dmitry-kun, do you really want to fight something like that?”
Isaac, too, murmured as he looked at the dragon floating in the sky as if it was ridiculous.
“That is the last reason. When there are six monsters standing here, it’s literally like dog death for our compatriots to rush to this place. Because I do not want my compatriots to be consumed in that way.”
even believe it?
The fact that that dragon only occupies the middle of the six.

Ernest, a member of the Red Case’s infiltration and operations team, worked diligently.
There was a constant roar from outside, but it was a good story for him.
Numerous thoughts were running through his mind.
‘Esmeralda, that traitor b*tch… … blow it all away I still haven’t gotten over it.’

Of course, they don’t think their leader will be found out, but when they found out that they had infiltrated their opponents, the operation had already failed.
He did not hide his hatred and contempt for Esmeralda, who was especially trusted by their leader.
‘Because of that year we are ridiculed by dogs.’
It was an open secret that the sprinkler team and the infiltration and spy team were not on good terms.

On the one hand, they mocked him for being pathetic and looking for holes, and on the other hand, he despised him as a pleasure killer with a broken frontal lobe.
Already their team has failed once.
And because of Esmeralda, there was enough risk that even the leader’s mission would fail.
So at least for this one… … .
‘At least this time I have to make up for it by myself.’
That thought became the driving force that made Ernest move alone.
It had been a long time since I found out where the relic was already hidden from what I heard at the conference hall and through the investigation conducted overnight.
If you find the relic, and even finish the relic that Esmeralda had to destroy, you could still be a leader.
He proceeded cautiously, disarming the security devices.
For him, these things were simpler than breathing.
So, the door opens… … .
“uh?”
In front of him was a white armor that was not a relic.
no.
To be precise, a silver-haired woman in white armor.
Laura Hartmann.
A woman called a paladin was there.
“You are here now.”
Laura murmured in a gloomy voice.
Ernest was taken aback for a moment, but didn’t show it at all.
If he had panicked and panicked like this, he would have been dead long ago.
“Guild Master, I think you should come quickly. There is currently a raid on the academy. Come on quickly… … .”
“Richyard.”
Laura cut off his words and looked at him.
“You really… … He was a really good subordinate and colleague. Thanks to you, I’ve saved lives on several occasions, and I’ve escaped crises on many more occasions. I trusted you to such an extent that your name was never left out whenever I picked someone to succeed me.”
With those words, she slowly drew her sword.
It was so natural that Ernest didn’t know for a moment what was wrong.
“But how… … Yeah, how fucking crazy is this? What a wonderful person you were… … .”
With those words, she hardily closed her eyes and then opened them.
Her eyes were glistening with tears.
“Even if it’s selfish, I hoped it wasn’t just our kids.”
“Come on, wait a minute. Wait a minute, Guild Master. This is a misunderstanding. I think I know what you are misunderstanding… … .”
He felt something on Ernest’s back as he stepped back.
When he turned around quickly, something like a pure white wall was blocking his way out.
It was the ability of a paladin that was originally used to protect his comrades.
“You misunderstood, Laura! I can explain it all, really!”
Ernest flipped her memory and uttered the most disturbing words for her.
However, the paladin just looked at him with unshakable eyes.
“What and how are you going to explain it?”
“This is a misunderstanding. I know. enough to be suspicious. But I took orders from someone else… !”
“Richyard.”
Laura whispered quietly.
“You underestimated us. No, actually, we all wanted our worries to be in vain. So just… … I was trying to get over it.”
She slowly raised her sword.
Ernest still believed in a ray of hope.
The option of fighting her and winning had long since been abandoned.
“The idea that someone close to us might have an insider was something everyone had already thought. I just turned away because I didn’t want to believe it.”
She still murmured in a gloomy voice.
No, it wasn’t a gloomy voice.
It was anger.
She was now furiously furious.
“The six of us had finished talking long before we got together, so we dug a trap to filter out insiders in the meeting room. Thinking that if we talked about the relic, we would definitely get a bait.”
The paladin raised his sword and silently, very quietly, uttered a sentence like a sentence.
“I don’t kill. You don’t have to worry about cutting off your limbs, twisting them, and leaving only your tongue.”
There are so many words to spit out of that mouth.
