The Academy’s Weakest Became A Demon-Limited Hunter chapter 215

215 – Alice Subjugation (11)

Four days have passed since Isaac was eaten by the abyss.

The dark sky still filled the sea.

However, unlike the first time, it was absurd to call it complete darkness. It was because it formed a perfect entity, boasted splendid magic, and mimicked the starry sky where the Milky Way flowed.

Because the demons hid the sunlight, the early cold came at Marchen Academy. Those who remained on the island had to take out their winter clothes and put them on.

Most of the people, including students, faculty, residents, and magic tower wizards, evacuated the island and escaped under the dark sky.

Princess Snow White was forcibly taken in a carriage by several imperial knights, including Merlin Astreans. It was an imperial order given to protect her.

Saint Bianca Entourage remained in the church and offered daily prayers. The pope sent a letter requesting evacuation, but Bianca firmly refused and only the clergy and believers were evacuated. However, Cylon, the believer in escort, stayed by Bianca’s side.

Bianca waited for the nameless hero, Bingje, or Isaac. It was because she felt a sense of duty to deliver the mysterious book she had discovered to him. This must be the will of Manhala. So thought Bianca.

In addition, there were those who remained in the current academy.

First, a small number of students and faculty members with a sense of mission. Of the students, only Dorothy, Luce, Kaya, and the saint remained.

Second, the Imperial Knights who had the responsibility to protect the Empire.

Third, Hegel’s magic tower.

Fourth, Dupendorf’s army and ice beasts defending the island after winning the war against the demon army. They were Isaac’s minions.

Fifth, the four paladins and Alice’s familiars who were caught in the detention center. As accomplices in this situation, they were restrained with handcuffs that obstructed the flow of magical power or ropes with the same function.

All Trump soldiers have been reverse summoned. Because they couldn’t track them all, they had no choice but to arrest and imprison Paladin and Alice’s familiars.

For four days, Dorothy, Luce, and Kaya stayed awake at night, desperately pouring firepower into the abyss. They overused their magical powers, resulting in nosebleeds. The idea that Isaac was inside the body of that dark creature was unreasonable.

The Imperial Knights also launched an all-out attack on the bottomless pit for four days.

He also helped Ian Fairytail to unleash light-attribute attacks without mercy.

All sorts of tactical attacks were launched with the remaining students and Dupendorf troops.

But to no avail. The demon did not have a single wound or even responded that it was itchy, just quietly imitating the starry sky.

In the end, the current situation was to evacuate Ian and wait for the best power of the empire, the punitive force.

“What are you planning to do?”

Faculty of Magic Class Building, Orphin Hall.

Principal Elena Woodline and Professor Fernando Frost sat across from each other in the drawing room.

Fernando had come to discuss with Elena what to do with the giant floating in the sky.

“You’d better evacuate quickly. There is no point in staying here.”

“What about the kids? Are you evacuating?”

Fernando shook his head.

A total of four students remained in the academy.

Dorothy Hartnova, Luce Eltania, Kaya Astreão, and Saint Bianca Entourage.

For four days, Fernando constantly persuaded the students that they should run away, but they did not pretend to listen.

Not to mention, the saintess didn’t even get a chance to talk to her because she shut herself off from everyone in the church.

“Sigh. then? How are the kids?”

“Luce Eltania and Kaya Astreão will be resting. Aside from the problem of using too much mana, he seemed mentally unwell. And Dorothy Hartnova… .”

After thinking about how to explain it, Fernando spoke up.

“To be honest, it is very dangerous.”

Elena was taken aback.

“what? why? How is it?”

“If you are already a normal person, you have a high fever that would make you ready for death, and sometimes you have seizures. The backlash from starlight magic is so severe that even healing magic doesn’t work.”

Remembering Dorothy in pain, Fernando put on a pitiful expression.

“For now, we are seeking cooperation from the Imperial Knights and forcing them to rest.”

“Wait, wait! Why did he become like that… ?”

“We estimate it to be a side effect of starlight magic.”

Dorothy poured her magic into the abyss for four days.

In the end, the overflowing emotions and overuse of starlight magic drove her to the worst condition.

Starlight magic is a special power bestowed by a star fairy. No one yet knew what exactly the side effects of abusing that power would be.

What is certain is that Dorothy’s current physical condition has become so serious that it would not be strange if she died at any time.

“Dorothy… .”

Elena said with a sad face, worried about Dorothy.

“In fact… I don’t know.”

“What are you talking about?”

“A nameless hero, no, now revealed. Yes Isaac. Even that kid couldn’t use his hands and was eaten. That rare great wizard.”

Now, it has become public that the unnamed hero is Isaac. The news must have reached the imperial family as well.

“Since I don’t know if he’s okay, I can’t think of running away… . After all, he is also a student at our academy… .”

“… Is that so.”

“I’m sorry, Professor Frost. How can a person called the headmaster show such a chure? It’s pitiful.”

As principal, Elena was shouldering a great responsibility. She herself would not allow herself to choose the option of running away, leaving even one of the academy students behind.

Fernando let out a sigh.

“… His Majesty Emperor Carlos was on his way here in person. That unusual event was stopped with the appearance of demons in the sky.”

“yes.”

“You should be staying at a nearby estate by now. It means that if you run away from here, you will soon be protected by the imperial troops. Not to mention, the headmaster is someone who is recognized by the imperial family.”

Fernando turned his head out the window. Demons imitating the starry sky were still filling the sky.

“And since the strongest punitive force in the kingdom is coming this way, you’ll have to force yourself to leave anyway. They say it’s only a matter of time before I leave this academy.”

A subjugation force composed of the Royal Guard, the best force in the Empire. It was a unit that could be considered the strongest force in the kingdom.

They were running to take down the demons in the sky. It was because the section where Isaac was eaten was over the island.

If the subjugation team arrives, this will become a battlefield.

Although there were many hardships, this academy, which I had been fond of, would soon become a mess.

But that doesn’t mean that Merhen Academy will disappear. With the support of the Empire and investors, another Marchen Academy was being built.

Until the new campus was completed, education would have to be carried out in a simple facility, so the Merhen Academy would not disappear.

“So, I want the headmaster to focus on making sure he survives first.”

“Professor Frost, what about you?”

“Unlike the principal, I am nothing more than a professor. If even one student says he wants to stay here, I intend to stay until the end.”

“You’re very knowledgeable too… . What did I say about this guy… .”

Elena sighed and thought.

If the demons in the sky tried to destroy this academy before the subjugation party arrived, Elena would risk her life to activate her protective magic to protect those still remaining.

It is a force that unconditionally distorts any attack, no matter how powerful it is. I didn’t know if I could somehow block at least one of the demons’ attacks that imitated the starry sky.

… …

Merchen Academy Detention Center. newspaper room.

The Imperial Knights decided to interrogate the four Paladins separately, using buildings separated by a considerable distance from each other as temporary detention centers.

It was because all paladins had excellent magic skills, so if they were placed close to each other, they wouldn’t know what kind of luck they would have. He couldn’t be relieved just by being handcuffed, which obstructed the flow of magical power.

The clover paladin, Pierre Plance, did not give any answer to the imperial knight’s interrogation. His expression, which had always been sad, became terribly emotionless.

The other paladins did the same. They themselves failed, and in the end, Queen Alice was eaten by the demons.

All Paladins were speechless at the piercing sense of loss.

“You mean you won’t reveal your motives for what happened, your true identities, or anything else?”

When the imperial knight asked with an angry face, Pierre Plance barely managed to squeeze his voice.

“… kill me.”

“what?”

It was an answer that had already given up everything.

“It’s all my fault. It’s okay to torture. I don’t mind if you put my head on display in Bjance Square.”

Byans was the capital of the Gerber Empire.

“So just… , kill me.”

He failed in his mission and was in a position to lose everything, but he made him take out even the powerful demons that filled the night sky.

It is unknown what kind of disaster the demons will bring to this world. Besides, it was hard to believe that Queen Alice, who was devoured by that demon, would still be alive.

He had no choice but to atone for his sins with painful screams and death. No, I wanted to. Otherwise, this loss and guilt seemed unbearable.

The other paladins did the same. They were already determined to drop everything in case of failure. I wanted to die quickly, make atonement, and support Queen Alice even in the underworld.

… It was then.

Kwaaang!!

A splendid explosion blew the newspaper room door apart like a piece of paper.

The imperial knight jumped up from his seat in surprise and immediately drew his sword.

The person who entered the newspaper room was a schoolgirl with light purple hair in a school uniform.

A female student who is one of the strongest in the kingdom and is said to be the greatest strength of Marchen Academy. Dorothy Hartnova.

She was sweating profusely, gasping for breath, clutching her head with a face contorted in pain. It was a high fever and a shattering headache that would have killed a normal person.

Dorothy glared at Pierre.

She hadn’t slept for four days and had been suffocated by pouring magic on her, and her physical condition was incomprehensible.

“Yeah, maybe… ? Should I just kill it… ?”

Dorothy said in a voice mixed with heavy breathing.
