Indeed, this message came to mind.
-Win rate in battle for leadership with Lord of Dreams (incomplete fragment): 75.5%
The win rate is well over half!
Considering that the opponent was a fragment of a great class, the win rate was incredibly high.
‘But, there’s a problem. While I take the lead, how do I protect the students?’
There was a high probability that it would be a very tough fight.
In the meantime, if that fragment completely descends, the students will be instantly killed.
At that time, I heard good news.
-Support came from outside!
-This is former President Randolph and Professor Bernstein!!
I made a surprised face.
The entrance to the dream was still blocked, but it seemed like only the two of them had broken through.
‘Former President Randolph is an 8-star archmage!’
He was the most important character in Rubines’ scenario.
Although it is said to be much weaker compared to its prime, it is a power that will be of tremendous help.
‘The students are relieved for the time being.’
However, a new problem arose.
‘… What if I solve this problem and get noticed by former President Randolph?’
You might say that was an idle worry in this situation, but it was a serious problem.
Former President Randolph was one of the people I should not have anything to do with.
‘Because I play the role of supporter of the main characters in the Rubines scenario. ‘If I get caught for no reason, I’m sure I’ll get incredibly tired.’
In particular, the current power in the academy is Duke Rafalt and President Karak.
Even if you get close to former President Randolph, you will only be checked by both forces.
After much thought, I came up with a clever solution.
“I have something else to do, so you go to where the students are gathered right now. “It will be safe now that former President Randolph is here.”
The two top protagonists are going to be brought in!
Former President Randolph would recognize the true value of both at a glance. They won’t be interested in me.
‘Now that the situation is like this, the plan to send them to another academy must be considered a failure. I’d rather use the two of them to find a way to make myself as comfortable as possible.’
However, the two gave an unexpected answer.
“no, I do not want. “Who wants it?”
“… what?”
“Aren’t you trying to take on a dangerous task by yourself like the last time you dealt with Lich? “I won’t let you, the professor, act unluckily on your own.”
Catherine wasn’t the only one.
Rebel also came forward.
“… Oh no… I am the one helping the professor. I will never give it up to anyone else, so you go.”
“What nonsense? “I don’t need you, so get out.”
“Everyone, you just go away. Otherwise, I will scold you.”
I blinked as I watched the two arguing.
‘I don’t need your help?’
It was more dangerous than anything else.
These two will become my precious protectors in the future. I couldn’t let anyone get hurt or die in a place like this.
“I told you to go somewhere safe.”
“You say you don’t like it?”
“I don’t like it… .”
“You’re arrogant. “I am giving you orders as a professor.”
The two are stubborn, as befits Jinju workers.
It was necessary to speak strongly.
“Don’t be mistaken. What help can you get if you follow me? As students, being in a safe place is what will help me the most.”
Then, it was their job to have that fateful first meeting with former President Randolph.
“… … .”
“… … .”
The two of them kept their mouths shut as if they had nothing to say in response to my embarrassment.
Catherine clenched her fists in exasperation.
“all right. Because like the professor said, I’m not good enough right now. But be prepared. “Because I will definitely push the professor’s nose someday.”
Catherine turned around and disappeared.
Rebel also gave me trouble in the same way.
“The professor who cares for me… mind… Well sir.”
“… … .”
“but… I don’t like this either. “I will definitely become the professor’s best student and stay by your side.”
I was appalled by the deep shine in Revelle’s eyes as she said that.
‘… Why do you both keep doing this? ‘Are you sure this is going well?’
I had an ominous feeling that something was wrong, but there was nothing I could do about it right now.
Resolving this situation came first.
‘Hurry up.’
After the two disappeared, a horrifying cry was heard.
-Gooooooooo.
I was shocked.
A ghostly knight wearing armor engulfed in eerie deception.
It was a death knight!
A whopping Lv. 5 monsters.
It wasn’t even one entity.
‘Lv., which acts as a seed. 4 Spectator and Lv. Up to 3 skeleton skilled soldiers.’
Monsters of a level that I can never match with my abilities.
I should have turned around and run away, but I just folded my arms and looked at them quietly.
The Death Knight in the lead tilted his head as if seeing me like that was strange.
-You are as insignificant a person as a small creature. Please kneel before my majesty right now. If you worship me, I will show you special mercy and grant you a painless death.
-Giggle, giggle.
Skeleton soldiers surrounded me, laughing as if mocking me.
A moment of desperation.
But, I still didn’t uncross my arms.
He didn’t even look at the monsters.
The place where my gaze was directed was a lonely empty space.
The death knight’s atmosphere became harsh as he seemed to be ignoring him.
-How dare you ignore me, the appointed knight of Gehenna? We must tear it into pieces and throw it into the flames of hell… .
At that time, a crazy story came out of my mouth.
“noisy. “Shut your mouth.”
-… what?
“I’m doing important work right now, so please be quiet. “I can’t concentrate.”
It wasn’t just because of the Black Flame Dragon.
There was a reason why I was so calm, unlike usual.
-under! I will make you repent in the pain of hell! Cut him into pieces!
-Giggle, giggle!
First, the skeleton soldiers rushed at me.
Normal Lv. Unlike the low-level skeletons in 1, each one is an elite soldier of Hell.
The swords, covered in hideous murder, were about to cut into my body.
Suddenly something strange happened.
Stand tall!
The bodies of the skeleton soldiers stopped.
As if I had been petrified.
-… Magic? No, is there any sign of Mana moving at all?
Death Knight reacted in confusion.
But, the surprise was only just beginning.
Pasasasa.
The bodies of the skeleton soldiers began to disappear.
It was not destroyed by a blow.
Like erasing with an eraser.
It has disappeared, as if it never existed in this space from the beginning.

Only then did the Death Knight realize what kind of trick I had used and shouted in astonishment.
-What, that’s ridiculous?! How could a human do such a thing?!
“I can do it.”
I turned my gaze and looked at the Death Knight.
-I can not admit it! Wow!
The Death Knight tried to struggle in fear, but it was no use.
I muttered one word.
“5%.”
At the same time.
Saaa.
The Death Knight disappeared like a lie.
Like the skeleton soldiers earlier, it was as if they never existed in the first place.
It wasn’t just Death Knight.
All the monsters wandering around disappeared.
At the same time, the wind blew.
It was a pleasant breeze.
I felt the wind and muttered one word again.
“10%.”
I glanced at the floor.
Then a flower bloomed where my eyes landed.
A miraculous sight that defies the laws.
Yes.
I was now taking control of the world of illusions.
The ‘nearby’ has already come under my control.
“15%.”
Until this world becomes mine.
There is 85% left to go.

“her. “Why is this happening?”
Randolph.
Former president of Rubines Academy and once Lv. He, who reigned as the Great Wizard of 8, lamented when he saw the shape of the giant’s arms.
‘Is it really because of Ouroboros? ‘Why has the time of prophecy not yet arrived?’
Ouroboros.
Beings of the abyss whose reality is not even clear.
Randolph only vaguely knew the name.
‘If this continues, everyone here will be exterminated. I have to protect my students at all costs.’
It was impossible.
It may have been in his prime, but the current Randolph would never have been able to stand up to that fragment.
But, I couldn’t help it.
“Bernstein, you will be here guarding the students. “I will deal with that fragment.”
“President, really?”
Bernstein’s face hardened.
Now Randolph wants to sacrifice himself!
“If I sacrifice myself, I will be able to at least hold on to that guy. “I’m opening the entrance to the illusion outside, so let everyone escape while I hold on.”
“No, President!”
“It’s okay because I’ve already lived enough to live. However, when I die, I will ask for Rubiness Academy from now on. “I’m sorry to leave you with such a heavy burden.”
I didn’t have time to talk more.
Randolph flew into the air and faced the giant’s arm.
“No matter how great you are, I will not let you touch a single hair of my students.”
Faaa
A fierce energy rose from Randolph’s body and covered the surroundings.
-Territory.
Lv. Attributes the surroundings to oneself. 8 It was the power of the transcendent ones.
Within the ‘boundary’, transcendents can exert omnipotent power that transcends mortal limits, but the problem was Randolph’s condition.
In return for failing to ascend to heaven, Randolph lost his status as a transcendent.
In the first place, spreading boundaries is not allowed.
‘You have to endure.’
Randolph swallowed the blood welling up inside him and looked with determination in his eyes.
“Come. “I will show you the power of this ‘Light Sky Wizard’ Randolph.”
It surprises the sky.
Randolph was a great wizard, worthy of that nickname.
Indeed, the fragments of the Lord of Dreams were blocked by Randolph’s resistance and could not move forward at all.
“Waaa!! Long live the former president!!”
“That’s the Archmage’s ultimate magic!!”
Cheers could be heard from below, but Randolph’s face did not look good.
Although we were barely able to stop it, the limit was approaching every moment.
‘But I won’t back down. Even if my soul disappears here.’
While the fragment hesitated for a moment, it looked at the students.
A fight was going on with monsters below, but fortunately, all the students seemed to be safe.
Bernstein’s performance was great, but it was also thanks to the security personnel that had been expanded in advance.
‘Why did President Karak increase the number of security personnel? ‘You did something unbecoming of Karak.’
Randolph, who had not realized that it was a half-measure, thought so to himself.
At that time, there were two students who particularly caught my eye.
It was a girl with a rough look and a boy wearing shabby clothes.
Unlike other students who were shivering and only receiving protection, they took the lead and fought against monsters together.
Randolph’s eyes sparkled.
‘That’s amazing. Both of them have the potential to become stars. hahahaha. Too bad. If I hadn’t died here, I would have helped them grow properly. Still, because there are students like that, there must be hope for Rubiness Academy.’
As I looked down, one person suddenly came to mind.
‘… By the way, where did that guy Banregi go? Didn’t you say it was a test tube?’
-Among the new professors, I am most excited about Ban Ecclesia.
After hearing Bernstein’s words, I was secretly looking forward to it, but I didn’t even see the snout.
‘… I guess he ran away because he was scared. What do you expect from this guy? under.’
