111 – Climax (1)
The day passed quickly.
As I said, or according to each person’s opinion.
We were busy moving around in our respective positions.
Dian, who returned to the academy, worked hard with the faculty, including Hilda, to prepare for the attack that would come tomorrow, and at the same time learned how to use the artifacts I gave him.
Malik and Tweet wandered around Adenia all day.
The possibility was small, but it was obvious that if Envy or Rose and Seiji could be found before tomorrow, things would go much easier.
But unfortunately, Malik was unable to find them in the end. But if it didn’t help at all, that doesn’t mean it didn’t help at all.
-“They prepared a lot of magic. “No one other than your junior will be allowed in, nor will more than two people be allowed in.”
Malik, who walked around Adenia and even looked at the places written on the letter I had received from Envy, told me everything he had seen.
When I visited the promised location in advance, there was no one there, but there was a magic inside that would teleport someone at a certain time.
Besides that, what kind of magic is in effect, under what circumstances or conditions will it be activated, etc.
To summarize, this is it.
If I don’t go alone at the exact time set by Envy, Rose and Seigi, who will be teleported there, will definitely be in danger.
If I hadn’t heard this information from Malik in advance, I might have made an unreasonable choice while singing about efficiency.
A choice such as sending Malik to that location instead of me, and me going straight to Envy, who was preparing to welcome Dian.
Because it was clear that Envy and Mort would not be there at that time and place anyway.
It was fortunate. If he had made that choice, he would have succeeded in protecting Dian and facing Envy, but Envy, who hates things that go wrong with the story he prepared, would have killed Rose, Seiji, and Professor Kalmia at any cost.
So, I had no choice but to head to the cave at the western end of Adenia, the place written on the letter.
Maybe he didn’t like me getting involved that much?
As Malik said, the western end was far away, and it took just about two hours to get to this area, which is close to the meeting place.
‘Honestly, two hours…’
In my opinion, it was more than enough. After I secure Rose and Seiji’s safety, there is enough time for Dian to hold out from Envy until I arrive.
Is that all? Two hours was enough, but I had also thought of ways to shorten that time.
So all I had to do was move.
I don’t know who is waiting for me, but I secure Seiji and Rose’s safety after dealing with someone who is obviously weaker than Mort, who is waiting for me at the meeting place.
Then, after reaching in front of her much earlier than her Envy expected, he swings her sword and disposes of her.
If everything goes according to plan, there is no need to worry about Seiji, Rose, or Professor Kalmia getting hurt.
This is because Envy hated it more than anything in the world for the story she had prepared to go wrong, and was a stubborn writer who never changed the story she had prepared midway.
There was only one thing I was worried about, and that was Dian who would face Envy.
From Noble mtl dot com
‘Dian will have to hold on well.’
I have played [Harem Academy] Countless times and read all of Narita’s novels, so I know what tricks Envy will do to Dian.
So, I gave him an artifact that was perfect for dealing with Envy. Just in case, I asked Malik to follow Dian.
So, it’s as if all the external elements Dian needs are provided before I arrive.
But even after all that, what if Dian can’t hold out until I come?
I may have to deal with Dian as well as Envy.
“What…”
I was worried, but honestly, it didn’t really matter. It’s not like I didn’t keep in mind what would happen if that happens.
I just hope it doesn’t become a little more annoying and difficult.
“Are we all here?”
As I walked and thought, I suddenly saw a large cave, which was the meeting place. Suddenly a question arises. Why do they like caves so much?
Putting those meaningless questions aside, I took out my pocket watch from my pocket and looked at it, and it came right on time.
“But…”
As I was heading toward the cave entrance, I couldn’t help but frown as I looked at the man guarding the front of the cave.
It was worth it. She said that the man was very familiar to me.
“···Why on earth are you here?”
The main character of the game I enjoyed,
A warrior candidate chosen by the stars of this era.
Fran was glaring at me with a different look than usual.
*****
A dark night when dark clouds swallowed up the moon.
With magic lanterns and colorful magic circles replacing the moonlight, a party with uninvited guests was in full swing at Aden Academy.
“Kaaa!”
“Kruk, ruk!”
“Geueoeook!”
Those who once cried out for freedom and equality, but have lost their soul and pride and become ghosts, are crying and running toward the academy.
-Boom!
-Chaaa!
-Scream!
The swords and magic of the professors who set out to protect this cradle of education and the home of their precious students are shining everywhere.
In fact, the party taking place at the academy was closer to a massacre than a battle.
However, that did not mean that the faculty members carrying out the massacre were not having a hard time.
No matter how many ghouls have lost their souls, they are beings created by the Seven Deadly Sins, known as the scourge of humanity.
It had a strong body and tenacious vitality that was different from other ghouls.
And above all, there were so many of them. Anyone could see that the number of ghouls trying to cross the academy’s main gate was well over two hundred.
Is that why?
The professors who were engrossed in the battle felt it desperately.
Ah, using space magic, she said, if it weren’t for the one female cadet who was constantly providing them with various potions, this night would definitely have been a much more terrible night.
“Thank you. Cadet Daisy!”
“There’s a mana potion over here as well… Evil! This bastard…! Daisy! “Please give me some recovery potion too!”
Daisy was busier than anyone else at the scene of the battle.
I took out a vitality potion from subspace to the professor who seemed overwhelmed.
Potions were given to those who lacked mana or were injured.
Those whose swords were broken were immediately provided with swords, and if anyone was injured, they were placed in subspace and moved to a safe place.
He did not directly participate in the battle. Because she has something Carmel said to Daisy.
-“There will definitely be a terrible melee. So, Daisy, don’t fight directly, just assist.”
-“Why do you have to do that? Why why? That’s right, because it’s going to be a melee rather than an individual-on-individual fight. You can fight it yourself. But if that happens, someone will get hurt and someone will die.”
-“But the story is different if the Bluemont family has subspace magic. People who might lose strength and get hurt won’t get hurt, and people who might get hurt and die will survive. Daisy, I assure you, this is something only you can do. “I trust you like that.”
Everything that was said was true, and Daisy was feeling it desperately right now.
Everything Carmel said was right, and she was really good at following what Carmel said.
The attack by the ghoul, which borrowed the name ‘Wings of Freedom’, was more terrible than Daisy expected.
A hideous appearance, terrible demonic energy, and unpleasant sounds that make you think negatively just by hearing them.
Every time it is torn, every time it splits and cuts, black slurry and disgusting lumps of flesh bounce out in all directions.
Daisy, who watched the whole scene while pacing around with the subspace open, thought to herself.
Didn’t those terrible ghouls once have dreams or families?
They must have been human, but doesn’t this end seem so miserable?
Despite having such sympathy, Daisy was constantly moving.
No matter how pitiful they were, there was no chance of them ever regaining their original selves.
More than anything, the people she did not want to lose were more important to Daisy than those who had already lost their souls.
It was when Daisy was rushing around and thinking about that.
“I’ll take some of this!”
A woman put her hand directly into Daisy’s subspace.
“Uh… Yes!”
Was there anyone other than her father who could directly put his hand into her own space?
Daisy wondered about that for a moment, but after looking at the potion flask in his delicate hand and answering vigorously, he turned to another professor.
This is Arden Academy, so it’s even weirder that there aren’t people like that, since there are even professors. Thinking like that.
“hehehe, that’s cute. “I know how to prepare such a precious artifact.”
The woman who took out her potion from Daisy’s subspace smiled gently and held up her ring in her hand.
The ring was an artifact endowed with the 9th circle magic of teleportation.
An artifact with ridiculous performance that allows only contract holders to teleport to the location of the artifact.
“Where did I get something like this?”
Envy was curious. Camel, what on earth has that child been doing for a living? She was once a princess, so she carries around such a precious artifact that not even she herself has ever seen.
“Well, there will be many opportunities to ask anyway.”
After muttering that, Envy stopped thinking deeply and immediately snapped her fingers.
-Wow!
Then, with a loud sound, the ring on Envy’s palm split.
“Okay then, let’s go again.”
Envy, who had lost her magic and was looking at the ring thrown away on the floor, soon turned her body and started walking.
By now, she was struggling in the chocolate swamp she had prepared, unable to come to her senses, her first love.
She looks so lovely that she will be waiting for him to go to where he is.
