chapter 215
I see your code (215)
Lucy’s Academy is one of the largest buildings in Layton. This is because the original aristocratic academy was converted into a place.
As it was a gathering place for people who like to play extravagant, there were a lot of uselessly large and colorful spaces, but even there, the dance hall was the best.
Huge size that can accommodate nearly a thousand people.
It could be said that it was a place equipped with an environment that had no choice but to be chosen as the location for this duel.
There were also thousands of seats inside, but the chairs that were normally empty were full today for some reason.
“Are you really doing this?”
“Well, after working like this, why should I quit? I will have to.”
“Well… … How many was it? 300 to 1?”
“It will be 250 to 1. Yes, although there is no significant difference.”
The middle-aged man’s eyes widened at the answer of the poor scarred man. It was then that he remembered that his opponent was an A-class mercenary in his prime.
“No significant difference, what do you mean?”
“Literally. Whether it’s 250 or 300, what’s the difference? Anyway, Rihanna… … So, the saint will win.”
“What? A saint?”
The middle-aged man asked in amazement. Because no one had predicted the victory of the saint until now.
Do you see anything else in the eyes of a talented person?
He thought about it for a moment, but Scar Man immediately refuted him.
“Oh, of course, I’m not saying we’re going to win normally. I must have done some trick. It turned out that it was a tag match in which 250 people take turns, or that there was a limit to the magical power that the graduates could use.”
“… … Could a saint have used such a cowardly method?”
“I think so, too, but after hearing it, it seems that this Dalian was proposed by the Holy Son. But could he have suggested that he would be disgraced?”
“Maybe it was because I had the confidence to win.”
As the middle-aged man spoke confidently, the scarred man from the mercenary laughed.
It was because he knew that the other person was ignorant of magical powers, so he could say that.
He couldn’t even guess what the alternative saint was thinking, but he knew one thing for sure.
It is said that if you match normally, you will not be able to compete even with the ability of a saint who had risen to level 2 a year ago.
If you have 200 5th-level knights and 50 4th-star mages, your opponent will have to be 1st-level to deal with it.
But he looked at the arena without saying a word.
Because it was something everyone would know after a while, without having to make fun of it now.
After all, this is nothing more than a gigantic play planned by the lord of Layton.
* * *
Contrary to the enthusiasm of the gathered people, the Dalian itself had a slightly weak feeling. Because there were no moderators and no referees explaining the rules.
However, all of these were the results of what Rihanna requested, and it could be said that it was a phenomenon in which the wish to end in a simplistic way.
Apart from that wish, the dungeon was already a melting pot of excitement, but the 250 graduates on it were looking at the opposite entrance with slightly nervous faces.
“Did you really do that?”
“What? Are you talking about the Faculty of Magic?”
“okay. After hearing that it was a real battle without any rules, they said that as soon as the saint appeared, they were planning to use attack magic.”
What the students of the Knights Department were worried about was that the match ended without them having a chance to play, and that Saint-nim was defeated in vain.
It did come out once it came out, but as much as I had learned through his grace, it was not the result I wanted too much to disgrace.
“What can I do? It’s true that they’re a bit selfish and unsocial in the first place. furthermore… … In fact, if the saint tells us to do our best, they are doing it right, right?”
“… … That’s true, but I guess that’s not too much.”
“Anyway, we just have to do our part well. To protect the wizard, and to hold the opponent.”
The man pouted his lips at the sound of his friend shrugging.
Anyway, I wondered if it was necessary to come out that far in a game where 250 people were tagugued. The opponent is not like an enemy at all.
But the moment he was about to put his displeasure in his mouth again.
I could feel a huge amount of magic wave from behind.
All the graduates of the Faculty of Magic have prepared the strongest attack magic they can use.
gulp.
He swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.
It was because I was nervous even though I knew it was not aimed at me.
But what about the opponent who is facing such a thing head-on?
The curious man turned his gaze forward.
Neatly cut blonde hair and simple attire.
Thanks to her excellent looks, she’s a little sassy, but if no one tells me, Layton. No, it was impossible to believe that he was one of the richest people on the continent.
However, he had the mayor’s position at the top of Layton, and his expression was commensurate with that.
It’s as if you’re claiming to prove your worth yourself.
Here, it was the appearance of Rian, who is called by the title of saint more than his name.
‘… … I tremble just by feeling that energy, isn’t he okay?’
The man looked at him with a strange feeling, but the situation did not give him much room.
As soon as Lian put his feet on the dungeon, about a hundred attack magics were launched forward.
His gaze, moving along the back of his tail, was colored with absurdity.
‘Crazy bastards, do you even use double chants?’
Anyway, isn’t that really overkill? That’s what the academy taught me with the saint’s money!
I wanted to say something to the Faculty of Magic, but the saint came first. It was at a level that could cause serious injuries.
Perhaps he was not the only one who had the same thought, so the students of the Knights Faculty rushed forward. It was to block the magic even a little and disperse the shock.
However, their speed could not keep up with the magic that had already been fired, and in the end, the magic came closer to the saint.
“no!”
It was a strange sight that the Dalian opponent was worried about his competitor, but no one found him strange. At least within the Knights Faculty.
But their concerns were eventually futile.
All the magic that had gone just before reaching Rihann disappeared immediately as if it had never existed.
‘… … Now what?’
The man stopped walking with a blank face. The situation could not be understood.
I would not have been so surprised if I had blocked it with a sword or how to avoid it.
But the many attacks suddenly vanished in the air in an instant. This was beyond what he knew.
I looked to see if the Magic School guys had come to their senses too late and canceled it, but it seemed like they didn’t understand the situation either.
On the contrary, the shock they received was much worse than them, and there were some guys who mumbled words they didn’t understand into the air.
In the end, he turned his attention to the only person who knew the answer. was a saint
However, whether or not he knew the meaning of the gaze, he simply raised his sword with a calm face.
Lian looked at the students of the Knights Faculty who stared blankly, and spoke calmly.
“what are you doing? suddenly stopped. Weren’t you running to attack me?”
* * *
How long did the silence last?
When I lost face and thought I should go. The knight in the lead opened his mouth.
“… … Everyone, prepare for the passing technique type 3. The risk is top notch.”
As soon as the man’s words were finished, the knights who had been bruised began to form in an instant.
It seems that he was the guy who was being chosen as the leader among them.
Rather, it is the third type of passing technique… … .
It was probably a formation against a close-quarters battle whose skills were not well understood.
I smiled and waited for them to finish their preparations.
It’s a recent rule of thumb to play while transforming, but it’s unique to quickly grasp the situation and change it accordingly.
Should it be the heart of seeing a grown disciple? It’s not like I grew up on my own.
Anyway, as I was doing that, hundreds of knights were all around me.
I can’t help but think I’ve mastered it properly to allow space for the Saisai Wizard’s attack to pass through.
thank god. So far, my money hasn’t been wasted. And with this level of skill, I’m sure it’ll be a breeze.
However.
The guys got the street number wrong.
Because the space left empty for those wizards became a space for me.
“… … .”
I immediately lowered my head and recalled the black iron sword in my mind. I could feel my surroundings muttering in surprise at my sudden travels, but I didn’t care.
Time passes by in an instant.
He activated the power of ‘creation’, which he was now completely accustomed to.
In an instant, dozens of swords floated around, and I fired them right into the gap between the knights.
“shit! Stop it!”
The leader who formed the first formation shouted loudly, but the order was a little late.
There was no way that the wide chasm made for the magic to pass through would not allow a sword much smaller than that.
Shh!
The swords that flew through the wind reached the front of the wizards. They weren’t fools either, so they used a shield to fight back, but it’s not a power that can only be blocked by their 4-star ability.
The swords, which moved like the Igear swords from the martial arts paper, struck the wizards in the back of the head with their sword heads the moment they broke the shield, stunning them immediately.
It took only one minute for all of the fifty graduates of the Faculty of Magic to collapse.
“… … .”
In the blink of an eye, the remaining knights seemed to have lost their consciousness.
I was trying to understand how to understand the magic that was blocked by ‘collapse’ earlier, but isn’t this a bit too far-fetched?
Fortunately, some guys are still biting their lips and burning their fighting spirits, but the number might be ten.
It’s only at this level that I don’t think it’s just a little press on the bridge of the nose, it’s just that I think it’s breaking the motivation itself.
I’ve been thinking for a while if I should try to be gentle from now on, but I’ve already seen something, so it’ll be very noticeable.
In the end, I came to the conclusion that the only answer was to just do what I did. I didn’t even get an order to do it anyway, so I don’t know.
then… … Now, maybe 2 minutes or so? If you add up the time spent by the students in the School of Magic, about 3 minutes.
As I counted to myself, I discarded the original swords and created them by my side once again.
And for once, I ran forward, targeting the guys who were burning fighting spirit.
Now the goal is how much time can be reduced as expected.
Winning was actually decided from the very beginning.
