chapter 12
12 – Academy Terror Incident (3)
An unknown space covered in pitch black without a single light.
– Ikki…
With the characteristic creak of an old wooden chair, the crystal ball on the rug-covered table turned on.
Looking at the macho-looking man reflected there, an old monster opened the door with a voice like a corpse.
“You are so shameless… Black Lion.”
“Shameless? That’s what I mean. What the hell are your men doing?”
“Heh heh… Your face is thicker than an iron plate. Didn’t there be rumors that the Heir of the Cold had regained his abilities?”
As he covered his face with bandages and laughed bitterly, parts of it came loose, revealing rotten skin.
At that disgusting face, the macho man hardened his expression without hiding it.
“Really? We didn’t know that either.”
“Don’t be ridiculous… You must have thought we would steal him if we knew that…”
“You’ve become a novelist after looking through used books. So your subordinates can’t deal with that kid?”
The man’s voice was implicitly full of heat.
It was also true that after the terror began, they trampled on the students in the early days, but now that they have reorganized their battle lines and stepped out tactically, a tight match was underway.
“Even considering the variable of being the heir to the cold, why can’t I overwhelm the other front?”
“Crunch… Young brute hasn’t even started yet. Watch. And a huge risk factor, I’ll have to get paid more.”
“I’m sure he’s an old man who’s crazy about money. The extra pay will be paid if you bring those two.”
“I will, colleague who shares the lofty goal.”
The light of the crystal ball disappeared along with the sarcasm telling them not to associate with fakes like you.
Afterwards, Macho Nam jumped up from his chair and looked at the real-time video on the panel that filled a corner of his study.
“Baekhanil… Let’s congratulate you in advance on becoming a member of the Black Lions.”
*
“Flumen Euphrates inundatio (The Flooding of the Euphrates).”
The blue-haired mage’s chanted number-attribute anti-army magic hit the enemies. As it was washed away dozens of meters, it was possible to reorganize for a while.
“Love! Baekhanil! Are you okay?”
“Rumi? Was Rumi also in the leisure area?”
“Yeah, I was drawing dolls with Ame and Hera, but what kind of lightning is this?”
“Are you two all right?”
“It’s all right, there’s support on the other side now.”
Rumine, who helped Han Sarang and raised her up, fixed her witch hat and looked at me.
“Thank you for protecting our love. I don’t know what happened to that authority…”
“…To protect me. Hansarang protected me.”
“You just have to say that you know when this happens. Anyway.”
He pokes me with his elbow and laughs pathetically.
I pulled out the daggers stuck in my back and sides and drank the healing potion from the subspace ring. Afterwards, he briefly explained the current situation to Lumine.
“Hmm… I think it’s targeting the two of you, right?”
“I guess.”
“Okay, it’s an honor to fight against that cold crown prince. I’ll support you with all my might.”
Just in time, the enemies who escaped from the aftermath of the attack approached again, armed.
Cassorla brushed her wet hair and screamed in a voice filled with annoyance.
“These cheeky little boys! Logan, I can’t stand the power meter anymore!”
“… I just got a call from him.”
“Really? What do you say?”
“The first forbidden oath… Allowed.”
“Kihihi!!! This is the bar I’ve been waiting for!”
They reverently folded their hands and knelt.
As if possessed by something, he muttered a sentence resembling a prayer in a loud voice.
“Maesire, Maesire, ego vestigia tua sequar. (Demon, demon. I will follow you on your way).”
“Vitae nostrae finis est paradisus tuus. (There is your paradise at the end of our lives.)”
“Officium mihi demandatum est, te videre cupio ut cum eo conloquar.”
Koo Goo Goo!
At that moment, three lines of black and red light, like those seen only in hell, pierced the enemies’ hearts.
Goat’s horns sprouted, jet-black wings spread, and the necklace of the cross turned upside down.
When I opened my eyes, a blazing light radiated from Cazorla and Logan. I couldn’t tell because the clown was wearing a mask, but it’s probably the same.
‘Even if the enemies get stronger, it’s enough to break them.
“Blue hair, prepare the magic chant. I will be in charge of the avant-garde.”
“It’s not blue hair, it’s Lumine.”
Whoop. After regulating my breathing, I raised my magic power.
Extreme chill spreads throughout the body, and the surroundings are fogged by a blizzard.
The noisy and silent battlefield is gradually coming under my control.
The secret that made me famous as the crown prince of the cold and the world’s strongest.
At this moment, it announced a splendid and chilling comeback against evil.
“Regio frigoris. (Region of frigid cold)”
– Suoo…!
“The cold that freezes you to the core is still the same. Little boy, you will do your best, too, right?”
“I’ll ask for Cassorla cover. I’ll be in charge of the front line.”
“Kihihi, then I’ll be looking for an opening.”
First of all, the battle started by blocking the clown’s nonsense.
“O, milites, expergiscimini! Imperator vos vocat! (Arise, soldiers!)”
At my beckoning, dozens of soldiers created by the bitter cold spring up from the earth. Half of them were used to protect Hansarang and Lumine, and the other half to bind Logan.
‘I’m going to kill that troublesome Cazorla.’
It is standard practice to start with a long-distance dealer in battle.
– Taang!
– Seriously!
It was converted into a sniper rifle and entered while slashing the flying bullets with the blade of the sword. The sharp ringing of the hands and the bruising of the blade definitely strengthened the power.
While Logan confronts his soldiers, he steps on the ice sheets created above him and reaches Casola’s cove.
“Kihihi!!! Where are you going?”
The clown who had been hiding his face swooped down on me, stopping my steps and clashing my swords.
The power has also become stronger, and even the speed, which was originally a long-term skill, has increased, making it difficult to follow the movement.
– Chaeng.
– Chaeng.
– Chaeng.
The attacks were so fast that they left afterimages, and they exchanged close to 10 rounds in an instant. As a result, I had no choice but to evaluate this clown’s skills more highly.
This guy… Knows how to use his strength.
The daggers that were half-beat fast stabbed at the right time as my attack flowed softly.
Certainly, in close combat, clowns were one step ahead. Thinking of Lumine’s support, I glanced behind the battlefield.
“Abysso devorare. (Be swallowed up by the deep sea.)”
“Finis Lucis. (The End of Light.)”
“Tractus Bermudensis! (The Bermuda Triangle!)”
“Conversio Armae, Gatling Gun!”
– Ugh!
– Taang!
– Shoot ah…
– Doo Doo Doo!!!
In the midst of her fierce long-distance battle with Casola, she was pushed back by her, who even used her forbidden power.
She didn’t seem to have the energy to help.
In addition, the endlessly summoned ignorant demons became stronger in the aftermath of the dark red light, and the students were bitten by the wires.
Those who were able to move freely because of Logan’s control confronted my soldier instead, and his foot was untied.
‘… I can’t help it.’
I don’t know how far the limit is, but he has no choice but to overdo it.
When he closed his hand that concentrated the cold energy, a shock wave exploded and slowed the enemies. Then, he created and flew various weapons and showed off a magical explosion that leads to a chain.
“Kihihi. Monsters are monsters. Logan, let’s go with Plan B.”
“Whoa… I get it.”
Plan B…?
As I questioned the sudden words, I threw out my sword, breaking the jester’s dagger and penetrating his abdomen. However…
‘The hitting feeling is too soft.’
“Hee hee hee!!! That’s an afterimage of me, isn’t it?”
The clone pierced by me disappeared into the shadows, and the clown disappeared. Logan, who had rushed forward with his heavy armor, filled the vacancy by activating his power.
– Kang!
He swung his sword with all his might, but his tongue stuck out at the sight of it degraded by a scratch on his shield.
In the meantime, where did the clown go?
The worry didn’t last long.
Because…
“Kyaaak!”
“Kihihi!!! Did the saintess get caught?”
“Love!”
All the soldiers who had been laid out as escorts had been decapitated and had disappeared. It should have been regenerated…
I tried to generate magic quietly, but the pumping was not cool. Eventually, the limit was reached.
“Let go of our love!”
“Kihihi! Every time I move a footstep there, I leave a knife mark.”
“I’m… I’m fine… Never mind the enemies…”
The dagger thrust into Hansarang’s throat draws a solid line. The depth was thin, but the blood flowing out was enough to feel the meaning of the warning.
“Kihihi. Don’t do nonsense.”
“Ugh… It’s finally over. Dissipate all your mana, kids?”
f*ck.
It can be so futile.
Have these stupid professors still not noticed!
As if he had been waiting for me, Cazorla approached me after I had no choice but to disarm. She raised one of her daggers from her inner pocket, her characteristic alluring, decadent eyes widening.
“Your face is trying to find hope somehow, it’s nice to see you little boy. Do you want to stay still?”
– Drama.
– Drama.
I draw long cuts from my collarbones to my shoulder blades. No poison had been applied, but the pain of tearing raw flesh with a knife was unbearable even after biting my lips.
Lumine, who was watching it from her side, gave her an expression of contempt.
“Kyaaak! I finally got my revenge~☆.”
“Crazy Psycho Pervert.”
“Huh? Do you want me to do this too? Since you gave me water, should I torture you with water?”
Pu-Hup and Casola laugh at her as she turns her head in embarrassment.
“I’m not interested in you after all. All I need is this kid. Logan? Is the transmission ready?”
“It’s about to end. Just in case you don’t know, put the two guys in restraints.”
“That’s not my taste. I’m sure I’ll hold on to it…”
Koo Goo Goong…
Her words came to a halt on the ground that suddenly shook. They cast sharp glances at us, but with Hansarang held hostage, Lumine and I couldn’t do anything.
Ugh!
Then the sky rang. Logan, who was building a transmission team, hurried to work, sweating profusely.
“Logan! When will it end!”
“It’s almost done, just wait!”
Patter!
Finally, something collapsed, changing the nature of the space blocked by dark magic.
Are you really coming here now…
