chapter 30
30 – Now, scream until the flames of inferiority die out (1)
“What is that guy? They appear out of nowhere and attack you.”
“Do you understand because it is me?”
Han Si-woo grumbled at the annoyed voice of Han Si-yeon.
Both of them looked so fine that it was hard to believe that they had been attacked by surprise.
And it wasn’t just what it looked like, it was actually fine.
Because I dodged the attack right before it arrived.
‘I trained to find that guy next time, so that’s what’s helpful here.’
…… Thinking that way made me feel bad.
‘It seems like I got some help from him.’
Han Si-yeon bit her tongue and shouted at Han Si-wu.
“Hey! What is that guy who has suddenly appeared and made a fuss with us?!”
“No, so why do you keep asking me about that! I’m so embarrassed right now?!”
“Because it looks like it has something to do with you!”
Shiyeon Han shouted, pointing her finger at the man who assaulted her.
“Judging by the fact that you look like an orc relative, I think you’re here because of one of the girls who always sings that you’re a friend!”
“Even if I give in one hundred steps and say you are right, then I have to go to them. Why are they looking for me!”
“Because the way you tried to create a harem must have offended him!”
“Is this the time to play around!”
“I’m not kidding!”
When the two of them are fighting like that.
“Ha! Even in front of the enemy, I am very relaxed! Did you leave your coward head in your mother’s belly?”
The man who attacked them laughed at them while shouting that.
“What is it, your eyes are red and your muscles are twitching strangely.
Han Si-yeon said that and looked around her.
People nearby were perplexed by the sudden uproar, but steadily kept their distance from them.
“Anyway, it would be easier to have a conversation if you could talk.”
Sereung-
After confirming that no one was around her, Han Si-yeon took out the two swords tied around her waist and aimed them at the man.
“Well then, tell me. What the hell is the reason for such a suicide special attack?”
“…… Under! Anyway, all geniuses are unlucky.”
The man spat a thick laugh into the air at her, frowned and growled.
“I came to kill you because I was going crazy because of things like you, did you get the answer?”
“Is that the only reason you showed up making a fuss?”
“Ha! Then did you think I would shout out loud and let you know why I appeared?”
To tell you the truth, he originally intended to do that.
His original plan was to crush the handsome faces of Han Si-yeon and Han Si-woo in a surprise attack, and then confidently speak out loud so that everyone knows why he did what he did.
But the attack failed, and things got tangled up, so the plan was changed.
‘Cheeky b*tch. It’s like this, you should never open your mouth.’
Once he made that decision, he raised his fists with a fierce fighting spirit.
“Ah, then I will explain that part.”
Unfortunately, however, life did not always work out as easily as he had hoped.
“Another bastard…… !”
Fire-!
Before the man finished speaking, the flame-clad sword moved swiftly and cut the man.
In an instant, the heels of his feet and his neck were cut, and the man fell to the floor and struggled with a burning pain, but he could not scream because his vocal cords continued to burn.
“You…… “
Han Si-yeon and Han Si-woo turned their heads and made a surprised expression.
The familiar red-haired woman smiled and waved her hand at the two of them.
“Hello, this is the first time I’ve seen you two since the entrance ceremony.”
“Why is the student president suddenly here…… “
At the sudden appearance of Rias, Han Siu stammered.
“Well, actually, it was a coincidence that I met you all like this. Originally, I was spying on that person.”
“That guy?”
“…… Come to think of it, he said he would tell us why he attacked us just a moment ago.”
She said in a calm voice as Han Si-yeon forced Han Si-wu to step behind her.
‘You look calmer than when I saw you at the entrance ceremony? Has the anger toward me at that time been resolved?’
From the beginning, Han Shi-yeon wasn’t angry with her in the slightest, but her Rias couldn’t figure it out.
‘Anyway, it’s an opportunity.’
Recruiting both seemed impossible, but they were talented people with nothing to lose as they got along well with each other.
After making that judgment, Rias created a large circle of fire around them to stop the conversation from leaking out, and then opened her mouth.
“Actually, there was an anonymous tip.”
“Report?”
“Yes, it was reported that there would be a large-scale terror attack in the Circle.”
Sug-
“By the way, that person struggling over there is one of the three prime suspects that the informant informed. That’s why I was watching.”
“Terror to the circle?”
Han Si-woo muttered with a look on his face that such a thing was possible.
Rias saw him and smiled.
When he first heard about this, he had a similar reaction.
“It’s not that I don’t understand why people react like that, but it wasn’t surprising to me.”
After getting information from Yujin Do, Rias and Yorbi researched the information in various ways.
It’s a fact I learned in the process, but there were times when the Circle was attacked by enemies like this once every few years.
“I am surprised that such a thing happened.”
“But why didn’t we know that? It’s worth hearing at least once.”
“Oh, that’s simple. Each time, the Circle completely rooted out the enemy who attacked them.”
For example, there was a black guild that was very prosperous in the past, and they simply didn’t like it, so they joined forces with several other black guilds to attack the circle.
“It is said that the damage to him was not great. Because then and now, the Circle boasted a defense facility close to a fortress.”
However, Circle did not take the attack lightly.
They dug into the case tenaciously and thoroughly caught and punished all organizations and people involved in the case.
They showed the whole world an example of what happens when you touch them.
“However, the fact that the raid took place like this…… “
“Like a stupid villain, the time has already come to forget what happened then.”
“We…… We are not villains!”
Then, the man who kept rolling on the ground grabbed him by the neck and shouted in a hoarse voice.
“We…… !”
“Yes, I know. That you are not villains.”
At Rias’s words, her man stopped her movements as she was and looked up at her with her bewildered eyes.
Thanks to you, I was able to see it.
“All of you are stones that didn’t even become villains.”
The cold red eyes looking down at him as if they were bugs.
At Rias’ words, the man gritted his teeth.
Han Shi-yeon, who watched the situation, nodded her head slightly.
“It must have been because of jealousy that they were targeting us.”
“Right.”
Rias said, withdrawing her gaze.
“These men who carried out this raid, in short, acted out of base jealousy towards every student in their circle. To put it simply, it can be said to be about the socially underprivileged.”
“Then…… “
“But don’t be sympathetic.”
Rias looked at Han Siu and said.
“It’s a shame because he was stupid enough to think that just because he took a pill, he became stronger than you guys.
“The target of attack is not only those involved in the Circle.”
“Right. Not only people from various guilds, but also ordinary people who come for sightseeing are targets of terrorism.”
“Eh, why?”
At Siu Han’s words, Rias spoke in a voice tinged with her sighs.
“Well, how do we know what the villains are thinking?”
“Wait a minute!”
Just then, Han Siu hardened his face and intervened.
“The word “Villains” Means…… “
“You said terrorism.”
Rias said as she looked at the man who was glaring at them ferociously with eyes filled with all sorts of dirty emotions.
“I wouldn’t call a riot caused by one person like this a terrorism.”
And at the same time as Rias finished speaking.
Kwaguawang-!
The sound of the battle, which had been hidden by the sound of firecrackers until now, reached their ears.
“Damn it!”
Hearing him, Siwoo Han quickly kicked the ground.
“Uh, I still have something to say…… “
“He is fine. I’m not the kind of guy who will go around and get beaten up.”
Han Si-yeon said as she inserted her sword.
“Because he is a big-headed guy, he probably ran like that to save his friend.”
“Umm, then it’s fortunate…… “
Rias muttered that, then shook his head and looked at the kite for a while and said.
“Anyway, I have to go to work soon, too? So I have a request…… “
At that, Siyeon Han smiled and said.
“These guys, how much are you okay with?”
At Siyeon’s words, Rias smiled mischievously.
“It’s okay if you don’t kill me. As a bonus, the more you lose, the more you will be able to get a good reward later.”
“I like that.”
Han Si-yeon laughed as she said that and ran towards the direction where the sound could be heard.
Pow-! Pop-! Pew-!
On the night when the firecrackers continued to explode, the second festival began.
◎ ◎ ◎
Erio, who had strengthened his body with magic power, stepped on the wall of the building and climbed up.
Erio climbed to the roof of the building and looked down.
Erio’s eyes trembled a little in anxiety as he looked at the people.
‘Where is it?’
Erio was happy until he watched the firecrackers go off a while ago with Yujin Do.
For Erio, who had been a loner all along, the memory of enjoying the festival with his first friend was a treasure sparkling like a jewel.
So it was.
Despite wanting to remember this moment a little more, Erio let go of Yujin Do’s hand and took out the camera.
And the moment I was about to pull the shutter.
Kwaguawang-!
The sound of a fight being heard along with the sound of things being broken came from everywhere.
The people who were surprised by that moved each other like startled stray cats.
“Huh?”
I separated Erio from Yujin Do.
‘Maybe?’
Looking down, I was convinced.
The current situation was not normal.
Something must have happened.
Because of that, Erio was worried about Yujin Do.
‘Eugene is very weak.’
Erio, who continued to worry like that, soon made up his mind and closed his eyes.
Pajik-! Pajijik-!
And then, while raising his mana, he moved the realm of electric current that he had unconsciously spread out around him, gradually increasing its range.
She
Since her opponent was Dou-jin, not anyone else, she knew at least that even if she did this, she would be hard to find.
But for now, this was for the best.
Pajijik-!
‘Concentrate.’
When she activates this ability in earnest, a lot of information from her turns into electrical signals from her, which are thrust at her.
Erio was reluctant to use this ability as the process was quite messy, but her single-mindedness to find and protect her doyujin made her ignore her thorny bushes and go in front of her.
‘I can do it.’
In response to her earnestness and determination, her talent, which was huge enough to appear as a boss in a scenario, flapped its wings.
Her training and rest, which she had through the help of Yujin Dou, were now the power to move Erio’s wings.
She continued to expand her territory and gather the information in it.
“Huh?”
Erio felt something and opened her eyes.
‘Just before that…… ‘
It was not Yujin Do.
However, she felt somewhat familiar, yet also awkward.
With this in mind, Erio thought about what to do with her, and she kicked the ground.
There were no other hints right away.
It was better to move than to stay still.
“Please, be safe.”
Pajijijik-!
Like that, Erio became a golden lightning and carried her new form.
