chapter 28
28 – To save (4)
The warrior expected such a disaster.
And I sincerely hoped that my prediction was wrong.
A large Magi who always follows her.
A power that cannot be compared to that of an intermediate level demon.
That existence came to the end of the last, and finally appeared.
So it gave me despair.
The high-ranking demons who appeared wearing black breastplates were not really opponents that could be defeated.
…for the first time she wanted to depend on others.
stand up alone again
I raised my sword to overthrow it by myself again.
save everyone alone.
It’s because she knows she’s getting tired of something too.

Just one step here.
If someone else dies, and she gets to the point where she can’t stand it anymore.
she will fall
His gaze moved to another.
In such desperation, all she wanted was redemption.
I wanted to be saved, not to save others every time.
gaze moved.
“Please… .”
I looked at Argal.
My relationship with him was truly bizarre.
If in the dream he was the villain who destroyed the capital, now he was a devoted helper and savior to the hero.
Where does this gap come from?
As a hero, you shouldn’t depend on others, but I wanted to depend on you this time.
“Can you help?”
“….of course.”
A pleasant answer came back.
A great movement of mana flows.
As if he had prepared in advance, mana was flowing through his necklace like a waterfall.
such magical power.
breathe into my body
Frank, who was by his side, was startled.
“Wait. Argal!”
Magical power, divine power, and demonic energy were all fully understood even by a hero who could read them with his own eyes.
Strengthen the body to the extent that the entire body is destroyed.
Even if this fight was over, the hero realized that he would be unable to move for a while.
She bit her lip.
He tried to depend on others.
But Argal did everything he could.
I risked my life for this one battle.
Even knowing you could die.
was the first to come out.
Argal struck a blow at a high-ranking demon who was trying to kill one of the students by moving his hand again.
His dagger collided with the hand of a senior demon.
Slap!
[What are you?]
The warrior always had someone’s back.
The weak, the persecuted, the injured, the good.
And I looked behind Argal’s back.
The boy’s back seemed to be carrying a very heavy load.
I couldn’t just keep watching.
If we had to face each other, we would have stood face to face.
Argal spoke without even looking at the warrior who stood up.
As if you’re used to it.
Encouraged me.
“You don’t have to carry it alone. Warrior.”
“…Argal.”
With that one word, the warrior felt an inexplicable emotion rushing to his head.
I tried to carry it alone.
I tried to overcome it alone.
But when the number of people carrying the burden increases one by one.
The burden will become a light feather.
Reinhardt then took out his sword.
-Sureung.
“If everyone dies here, it won’t pay off.”
I barely managed to save the test takers and come this far, but if I died, it would mean nothing.
He, who always looked at reason and reality, raised his sword against the advanced demons.
Asher created the spear with his bare hands.
“…a desperate struggle against an unbeatable foe.”
She smiled a little.
“I like that.”
Fran gathered a large amount of mana.
Her face was full of worry.
“Don’t overdo it. Argal.”
The students were prepared to die.
“Raise your sword!”
“You will survive here!”
“This is the real end!”
All of them held swords and prepared magic, and indeed, their fighting spirit was close to an army.
A cliff from which there is no escape.
Swing your sword once and fall.
The swordsman shouted.
To the extent that a vein forms in the neck.
The heat exploded like a bomb.
“Only one enemy!”
A voice filled with magical power can be heard by everyone in this space.
“Never back down!”
Resolutely determined, prepared for death, I stand here.
“Then everyone can live.”
On a plain that was quite peaceful near the forest.
A life-and-death struggle has begun.
The cheers of the students shook the land.
**
What?
Why are you all fighting against a high-ranking demon?
Of course, I was only stepping forward, and I was only comforting the hero who looked a little tired.
I also strengthened my body to the extent that my whole body was strained.
However, it seems that everyone was moved by the appearance.
Sword Saint, Changsung, Fran, Raeli.
Not only the four of them, but all the students were excited and drew their swords.
I never expected this kind of effect, but it worked well anyway.
It was no longer necessary to use demons to catch high-level demons.
With this much power, it is enough to catch a high-ranking demon.
The reason why high-ranking demons are scary is because they kill the enemy with a single gesture if they make up their mind.
Such an overwhelming appearance lowered the will to resist.
But what if everyone runs to their deaths?
I really could have won.
A warrior’s awakening.
without using my black magic.
Reminding this point, I jumped in to distract the demons first.
[On the topic of fire moths, if you really want to die.]
The sword the demon was holding moved.
Even though I have strengthened my body this much, I can’t even see it.
It’s definitely a high-level demon.
Whiik-!
But I avoided anything more than that, and I also won.
A sword invisible to the naked eye was insignificant compared to the almost invincible swordsmanship possessed by a swordsman in his heyday.
avoid and avoid again.
And my magic was also used.
flash
A strong light that exploded in front of the demon’s eyes.
The demon covered his eyes and made a painful sound.
[Keep it off!]
shred!
At the same time, attacks poured in.
The warrior’s sword nicked the armor.
The Sword Master’s sword strikes.
Changsung’s spear stabs a point.
Fran’s magic emitted a bright light and aimed and fired at the demon.
When the demons who were being beaten from all sides came to their senses again, I interfered again in front of them.
[Kuh, such a flying fly!]
“While being beaten by flying flies?”
Demons’ swords flew in all directions, but I wasn’t strong enough to be hit by a blind sword.
As if the demon’s vision was gradually brightening, the sword moved fiercely toward my neck, but there was no reason for it to hit me either.
The pattern of fighting high-level demons was one-sided.
While I draw attention, I shoot a magic spell that takes away the eyesight of the demon, and while the demon is unconscious there, I pour out attacks.
If you can repeat it infinitely like this, you can catch it easily.
But i know
After all, you can’t win with this.
I realized that my body was collapsing, starting with the joints.
On the contrary, the high-level demons were still in good shape.
The reason is simple.
Because there was something that absorbs all damage.
black armor.
During the Great War, it was a symbol of fear.
I had to break it.
**
[Quaaagh! Bastards!]
The high-ranking demons were beaten repeatedly, one by one.
It was only at the level of ants biting, but as they piled up, everyone noticed that the armor was gradually breaking down.
Argal was the most active here.
He drew attention in front of the demons without rest, and at the right time, he induced the students to attack.
But it was visible in Frank’s eyes.
Mana is gradually depleted.
Body creaking from overload.
Argal will soon reach its limits, and from then on many will die.
There weren’t many people who could stand in front of those high-ranking demons.
That made Fran impatient.
“Argal! Get there and pass it on to someone else!”
“…it is.”
He nodded as if he had correctly analyzed his condition and gave Reinhardt a signal.
Reinhardt was nervous and stood in front of the higher level demons.
As soon as they faced Reinhardt, the angry demons launched a powerful attack on him.
bang-!
once.
His posture falters at once.
Kwagak!
twice.
A great luxury sword is broken.
Kwadeuk!
third time.
Completely collapsed, the sword went down.
He showed a perfect reaction as he crossed swords, but his face turned pale as if he could clearly feel the difference in power.
Moreover, even the demon’s black sword castle, which moved once more, was difficult to react.
If he was hit as it was, a blow came down that would cut his body in half.
It was Asher who stopped it.
Even for her, this once was her limit, and if she collided with that sword one more time, she would collapse.
Wow!
“Ugh! Wake… .”
“I don’t have an answer… .”
Stepping back, Reinhardt felt that he had no way to deal with the serious difference in status.
Next, the hero stood in front of the demons.
The demon moved his sword in a state full of rage.
Argal, like the warriors, did not join the joint effort and gave advice.
It looked like it was preparing something.
His necklace was shining brightly.
“Hero, don’t think of blocking the sword. It must be shed or avoided unconditionally.”
“All right.”
“And attack with the feeling of throwing your body.”
The warrior did not understand the last words.
throw yourself out?
It was a dangerous word indeed.
In a fight where swords collide with each other, there is no reason to do such a thing unless you want to become friends.
Does he want the hero to die?
…but based on what she had done so far, she trusted Argal.
“I will.”
Literally, the warrior threw himself.
Dancing with swords with demons.
I stabbed my sword into the armor that wasn’t blocking it, and I did my best to break down the armor of the demons even a little more.
So a strange thing happened.
The demon’s sword passed her every time.
Whiik-! Whieik-!
“why?”
This was done once or twice, and since it was repeated several times, she had no choice but to doubt it.
There was no such thing as the will to live in the demon’s sword.
Something intentionally, I didn’t want to kill her.
The demons, who did not know that the hero would throw himself like that, were more embarrassed.
Because the demons could never kill the hero.
Taking advantage of such a gap, Argal moved.
A magic circle three times the size of his body was formed, and a blue chain rose from it and bound the demons.
“It is this time. Asher.”
most powerful.
And among these many people, the one with the best room is Asher.
The only one who can pierce that sturdy armor is her.
Argal knew.
The fact that Asher broke that armor with a single stab before returning.
If not now, the armor could not be broken.
When Asher launched an attack, the preparation motion was long and the blood flowing out was very intense.
Unless there is a means to completely tie it up, the demons will avoid the attack unconditionally.
At Argal’s signal, she prepared for a one-point piercing.
Enemies with both eyes clear.
Leg muscles support the body.
The upper body is like running water.
Intense life and power converge at one point.
The demons fought until the end.
[You guys, how dare you guys!!]
one point.
pierce through
Pooh-!
However, this attack is futile.
“Comb, you’re out… .”
I blew up the air.
Asher turned his head with a voice full of regret.
The reason was close by.
Argal sat down.
he said quietly.
“I couldn’t stand it.”
Whole body completely powerless.
At the same time as pouring everything into the last magic, even the mana to support the body was depleted.
There wasn’t enough time to bring back mana from the origin of the stars, and since his body was already broken, he couldn’t afford to use magic.
It was a miscalculation.
His body couldn’t stand it more than expected, and Asher’s blow was delayed more than expected.
A few seconds of time was gained, but the chains that bound the demons were released before the spearman’s blow could fully reach them.
[Heh, heh, heh. hahahaha!]
The demons laughed.
Because in the end he won this fight.
What’s the use of the small children who are burning their fighting spirit? The greatest enemy has collapsed like that.
Even more so than the hero, the opponent who was awkward.
The demon who smiled like that.
He said, letting out a bloody life so that everyone’s body stiffened.
[Even if the others survive, you will die unconditionally.]
Powerful power dwells in the sword.
Argal had no way to escape.
I hurriedly stabbed my hand with a dagger, and I didn’t even have time to pull out the demonic energy.
The hero rushed from behind, but the demon’s sword was faster.
Fuuk-
The sword pierces the body.
Argal’s eyes widen.
It wasn’t him who was cut by the sword.
The girl who threw herself in the split second said while bleeding.
“I said… .”
Raeli grabs the sword that pierced her body with both hands.
“I will protect you.”
