63 Episode Big Hunt (5)
“no… … ?!”
Theodora’s golden blackness was shattered.
It would be difficult for her to understand now.
As a graduate, he wouldn’t have expected at all that his sword would be shattered by a kid who was at a much lower level than himself.
“Ugh… … !”
👌👌👌👌👌
A sword that combines the Waldfeld spear technique and the Callesius spear sword technique cut Theodora’s body.
However, it was not fatal.
It was because Theodora was firmly developing self-defense.
‘It’s also a grade-level self-defense… … !’
Don’t stop here.
If Theodora counterattacks, I will be in danger.
You have to fight right now.
“Ernas… … !”
Irrespective of the constant flow of blood, Theodora hurriedly tried to reform the sword.
But there was no reason for me to let it go.
While maintaining the golden sword, he continued to attack.
bang! bang! Whoops!
Theodora’s sword energy was not properly formed and scattered here and there.
By combining the Waldfeld Swordsmanship with the Callesius Spear Swordsmanship, it was able to destroy Theodora’s unformed swordsmanship as many times as it could.
‘The biggest weakness of the Waldfeld family’s golden sword… The point is that it takes time to form a sword!’
It is also described in the novel.
Besides, I fully understand the Walttefeld spear technique.
It was possible to prevent Theodora from completing her sword properly.
“What… … !”
Whoops! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

My attack and Theodora’s defense collided in succession.If Theodora couldn’t properly form the sword, me with the same level of swordsmanship would have an advantage.
With the amount of magical power of the intermediate grade, it can drive Theodora, a senior grade grader.
“Ugh!”
Koo!
The attack from the bottom up completely broke Theodora’s defensive posture.
Watching Theodora’s face distort, I raised my sword.
‘Attacking aircraft representing Waldfeld’s slashing technique… Grand smash.’
A technique Theodora had just deployed to defeat me in one hit.
It unfolded in the same motion as Theodora.
The swordsmanship of the Waldfeld family attacked the second-in-command of the Waldfeld family.
“… … !”
Theodora’s body is being protected by self-defense.
However, the Grand Smash of Waldfeld’s sword technique has the power to tear apart self-defense.
The golden sword shattered Theodora’s collarbone and penetrated deep into her body.
“Great, bad… … !”
👌👌👌👌👌
The moment he pulled back his sword and stepped back, blood spurted out.
Theodora, fatally wounded, was seen staggering.
“Er, Nas… … !”
However, Theodora raised her sword again.
Even if he was fatally wounded, trying to counterattack is also a grade of the Waldfeld family.
“You must… … !”
Animals in nature will run rampantly until they are completely out of breath, even if they are fatally wounded.
With her brown, lionlike hair fluttering, Theodora tried to attack me.
“For the Waldfeld family… … !”
Paah!
The sword I wielded ripped Theodora’s shoulder muscles.
Theodora’s arms drooped, and she could no longer raise her sword.
“ah… … .”
Unable to bear the weight of the sword, Theodora fell forward.
It fell on the water of the lake and splashed in all directions.
“Theodora Waldfeld.”
He looked down at her and spoke in a cold voice.
“Your biggest mistake was trying to make Gort-Waldfeld, who lacked qualities, the top of the academy.”
“… … .”
“To make him the pinnacle of the academy, all we had to do was get rid of his competitors.”
Theodora tried to make Gort the pinnacle of the academy by any means possible.
That’s why he had no choice but to attack me.
“finally… You had to lose.”
I knew how Theodora would act.
How to deal with it may be able to create a gap.
At the point when he decided to get rid of me, Theodora’s defeat was decided.
“… … .”
Theodora didn’t say anything more.
Coloring the lake red, it cooled down.
The tycoon of the Waldfeld family who boasted great dance… it fell into my hands.

“Ernas!”
As I was walking through the dark underground space, I heard Yols’ voice.
He was running towards me with the swordsmen of the Waldfeld family.
“You’re safe!”
“Professor Yols, why… … .”
“I found out later that you fell underground! That’s why I hurried down!”
Theodora’s men must have tried to keep Yoles from grasping the situation.
However, in the end, it seems that he noticed what had happened and went downstairs.
“Why did you enter the restricted area? It must have been marked, so why didn’t you move as directed?”
“Professor Yols, I have something to tell you before that.”
“what?”
I lifted my head.

Mohad, a close associate of Theodora, was looking at me with a puzzled expression.“Everyone, I want you to accept this sword.”
“… … !”
As he held out a sword, the other swordsmen of the Waldfeld family also looked surprised.
“Hey, this is… … .”
“Theodora-sama’s sword!”
Yes.
I was holding Theodora’s Greatsword.
“Ernas-sama, how… … .”

Mohad said in a trembling voice.“How can I use Theodora-sama’s sword… … ?”
“Theodora-sama was attacked by a monster.”
“… … !”
“There was a lake with underground water in the opposite direction. There, Theodora-sama is attacked by monsters… You lost your life.”
Of course, this is a lie.
But it was also a lie that would not be revealed.
When I leave by the lake, I smell the blood and the monsters are gathering.
There were also medium and large monsters that could chew on bones, so the fact that I inflicted fatal wounds on Theodora would never be discovered.
“The only thing I could save was Theodora-sama’s sword. I just ran away with this.”
“Hey, this is nonsense!”

Mohad raised his voice.“Theodora-sama was attacked by a monster? And you brought back Theodora’s belongings? How do you say that… … !”
It would be absurd for Mohad.
Theodora went down to the depths to kill Ernas, but Ernas is alive and only Theodora is dead.
“Theodora-sama is a senior grader! But you, a lower grade grader… … !”
“Mr. Mohad, wait a minute.”
Then Yoles interrupted Mohad.
“Can I just check one thing?”
“What, what?”
“When I inquired earlier, you replied that Theodora-sama had left for a nearby city on urgent business. But why was Theodora-sama in the depths of the Great Labyrinth? Also near where Ernas crashed.”
“… … !”
When Yols pointed out, Mohad’s expression hardened.
“At that time, I tried to confirm the unidentified roar I heard from inside the Great Labyrinth. But you faltered, saying it must have been due to internal construction. Isn’t it?”
“Yo, Professor Yoles, that was just my guess… … .”
“Did Theodora-sama know that Ernas was down? Did you go down to the depths by yourself, knowing that?”
“Uh… … .”
Yoles’ point was sharp.
He must have already seen the truth of this case.
Except for the fact that I killed Theodora myself.
‘It shouldn’t be known that I defeated Theodora at this point.’
Theodora is an advanced grade.

Meanwhile, I am still known as a lower grade grade.It is so unnatural that I defeated Theodora.
‘furthermore… If the heir of the Landsstein family killed the second son of the Waldfeld family, there would be a lot of commotion.’
Even if Theodora attacked first, this is a very big scandal.
It is undesirable to have such a big commotion at this point.
“Ernas, when you met Theodora-sama, what kind of attitude did Theodora-sama have toward you?”
“I haven’t been very busy, so I can’t remember. but… … .”
To Yols’ question, I answered in a calm voice.
“It didn’t feel very friendly to me. Rather, it seemed hostile.”
“Right.”
“Wow, what nonsense… … !”

Mohad raised his voice.“What is it! Are you saying that Theodora-sama went into the depths to kill Ernas-sama? It can’t be! Professor Yols, this is an insult to Theodora… … .”
“How the hell this happened, I will slowly investigate.”
Interrupting Mohad’s words, Yoles said in a cold voice.
“Anyway, I have ordered Heinrich to investigate the area around Ernasth’s crash.”
“What, what?”
“It’s not surprising that Ernas went out of the practice route and went into the off-limits area. If there is a problem, Heinrich will find it.”
“… … !”
This was something I didn’t expect either.
Heinrich’s senses had been trusted, and Joles seemed to have given the order.
Heinrich might find evidence that they brought me down here.
“No, I mean, this is… … .”
“Mohad.”
Towards Mohad, who clenched his lips, I gave a cold voice.
“For now, I think it would be better for you to prioritize recovering Theodora-sama’s body first.”
“… … !”
Hearing my cold shot, Mohad contorted his face.

Theodora Waldfeld is dead.
The news also reached Gort, who had not yet passed the second exam.
“What, what? Is your aunt really that dead?!”
“He said yes.”
It was a professor I had known for a long time who brought the news.
He had always been close to the Waldfeld family, and was acquainted with Theodora.
“Theodora, who was in charge of this year’s Great Labyrinth, died like that… This is a rather serious situation.”
This was a very serious situation in many ways.
The death of Theodora, who was the second-in-command, is a huge blow to the Waldfeld family.
Recently, in the Waldfeld family, few talented Graduites were born, so Theodora, who had reached an advanced level, was a very valuable talent.
Also, it is a problem that he died inside the Great Labyrinth, even though he was in charge of managing the Western Great Labyrinth.
This is highly likely to be interpreted as the incompetence of the Waldfeld family.
Otherwise, you could entrust another family to manage this year’s Western Great Labyrinth.
This would be a great disgrace for the Waldfeld family.
“Besides, Professor Yoles’ movements are unusual. I’m wondering if Theodora-sama was deliberately plotting a trap to get rid of Ernas. I don’t know if there is any evidence.”
“… … .”
“Actually, when I heard the story, I was a little suspicious. From Theodora-sama’s point of view… Eliminating Ernas from there will make things a lot easier.”
This is also correct.
Gort already knew that Theodora was trying to get rid of Ernas.
That’s why he knew from the beginning that this was Theodora’s conspiracy.
“Theodora-sama is also really unlucky.”
“… … .”
“If I had quietly killed Ernas in the depths of the Great Labyrinth, everything would have been resolved, but I must have thought that I was attacked by a monster and lost my life… … .”
while listening to that
Gort felt his lips quiver.
“It probably wasn’t attacked by a monster.”
“What?”
“There is no way my aunt would die from being attacked by monsters.”
When Gort said that, the professor in front of him had a bitter expression on his face.
“Hey, Gort. You have to admit the reality though. The body recovered by the prosecutors of the Waldfeld family is also evident… … .”
“Ernas! He must have done something else!”
Gort shouted as he stopped talking.
“He killed my aunt! Your aunt was beaten by him!”
“Gort, does that make sense? Ernas must be a lower grade grade, how the hell did you kill the high grade grade Theodora-sama?”
“I do not know! It must have been some kind of scheming! Conversely, I must have taken my life by trapping my aunt!”
no doubt
Ernas Landsstein, that sly bastard is more than enough.
“Damn, damn… … !”
“Hey, Gort! Now, the re-exam is almost over, so I can’t do that!”
Unable to control his emotions, Gort struck the ground with the wooden sword he was holding in his hand.
I felt a pain in my wrist, but I couldn’t calm it down.
“Ernas Landsstein… I will surely kill you!”
Gort ignited his hatred for Ernas.
The problem was that Gort had no choice.
Almost all the instructors who moved for the Waldfeld family were caught, and Theodore, who supported them both physically and mentally, also died.
Now, who are you going to turn to for help?
The head of the Waldfeld family in the north… Should I ask my father to come to the academy and help him?
The difference between you and Ernas is getting bigger and bigger, so please help me somehow?
“shit… … !”
After hitting the ground violently, the wooden sword finally broke.
Feeling a sense of unity with the wooden sword fragments rolling on the ground, Gort sat down.
Even while Gort is crawling like this, Ernas will be flying towards the top of the academy.
Just thinking about it made me feel like I was going crazy.
