It Is Fate To Be Loved by the Villains

6. assassination attempt

●

“For now, it seems that all communications to the outside are blocked.”

Those words flowed from Elnor, who was touching various devices around her.

“Don’t worry too much. I’m sure the academy is taking action.”

Of course, the reason why the students are not too panicked is probably thanks to Elnor, who calmly maintains control even in this situation.

In fact, rather than being calm, it’s almost scary because not a single complexion has changed since a while ago. I don’t know if this person is capable of expressing emotions.

“Then can we just wait here?”

A diminutive student who was exceptionally restless asked such a question. Judging by the small wand and robe, he must be an aspiring student of the Faculty of Magic.

“no. That might not be it.”

To this, Elijah, who had been watching the situation with his arms folded in silence, answered that.

When Elnor looked back at him, he smiled and continued talking.

“I thought that if I didn’t move quickly, I might be in trouble. Do you agree?”

“What do you mean?”

“I think the president feels it too. We are not alone here.”

Elnor’s expression softened slightly at those words.

Seeing this reaction while the other students were bewildered, it seemed that these two had roughly grasped the situation a long time ago.

“…”

How did you do it?

It’s me, because there’s a quest window, so do these humans sense in advance what kind of martial arts masters they’re going to live with?

It seems that the main character and the final boss are not really just anyone.

“Looking at it, it’s not a friendly intention, is it? Because the student president is here too.”

“What do you mean?”

“You belong to a noble family, don’t you? Do you think that is enough reason to work for that purpose?”

From the sentence, it seems to be referring to a criminal act aimed at the restraint of a high-ranking aristocrat, but this is sarcastic.

Because he belongs to the Duke of Tristan, who commits terrible things like breathing, it means that dangerous things happen.

In fact, Elnor also seemed to have interpreted it that way, and his eyes went cold in an instant.

“You’d better choose your words, freshman.”

“Oh, it didn’t mean anything.”

However, when he sees Elnor’s face becoming more threatening, he laughs single again and pretends not to.

Come to think of it, he was also quite clever in the original. He’s a guy with a knack for scratching people like this.

“Anyway, wouldn’t it be better to move somewhere rather than just waiting here?”

“…I think that’s right too.”

The tallest male student in the group said so in a heavy voice.

Judging by the outfit, he must have come from a savage tribe left over from the eastern part of the empire. The large ax hanging on his back is impressive.

“Certainly, the atmosphere is not unusual. I don’t know what will happen, so I guess I’ll have to move to a terrain that’s a little more advantageous for battle.”

At those words, the expressions of the other students gradually changed.

However, rather than being scared, it’s more like making up your mind.

Seeing that everyone quickly adapts and seeks ways to overcome even when bad things happen, it must be like a student from the top group.

And if you look closely at the members, you can clearly see that they aren’t the ones who can simply use that name.

Luka the warrior, Falco the wizard, Trisha the healer, Grid the shooter. Additionally, Elijah, the party leader and warrior role.

‘It’s a party for the main character of the original story.’

Even if you think about the progress of the scenario, this is the first meeting.

I remember when we showed good results in the entrance exam, a camaraderie blossomed, and we became partners who would run together until the end.

In other words, all the humans here, except for me, are the guys who do one strand in the scenario.

“…”

Well then.

I should be able to proceed with the work as I thought.

“Then the central hall seems most appropriate.”

When I opened my mouth like that, all eyes were pouring in this direction.

Like that or not, I continued, pointing to the building map next to me.

“There will be various equipment and first aid items inside, and above all, the space is large. It will be much better than a hallway that is easy to be ambushed.”

Everyone seriously nodded at my words. Well, that would be the most reasonable option. So far, this is something everyone can understand.

The problem is this.

“And I will fall this way.”

After pointing to a completely different place on the map and speaking confidently, silence covered the surroundings.

It was such a heavy silence that it took a long time for someone to raise a question in an absurd voice.

“…why are you going there alone?”

“Because I need it.”

“so why?”

“It’s all for a reason.”

You will look like a madman. You don’t know when a fight will break out around you, but suddenly you’ll act alone.

But it doesn’t tell you why. I have no intention of telling you.

Why?

‘Cause this is just me bouncing

“…”

no. Of course, the event itself is about protecting Elnor.

Let’s think common sense.

‘Who is protecting whom?’

What is here right now is the final boss himself who can slice and defeat all of the original party, including the main character, even an assassin.

Do I, who is an all-status F, have to risk my life among these kids?

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Just drive them all into the central hall and let the assassins drag in aggro, and I’ll just hide somewhere until the situation is over.

“I can’t reveal it now, but it’s an important reason. I will be sure to explain later.”

I declare so with a sincere and appealing voice.

uh. It’s not even a lie.

What could be more important than saving my life?

●

“This works.”

I mumble and walk down the dark hallway.

To be honest, I was a bit worried about whether this would happen or not, but it seems that the recognition that Elijah was beaten in one blow worked quite effectively. After all, does the reliability of words come from performance?

The goal now is to stay hidden until the event is over. In the first place, the assassination target must be Elnor, so there is a high probability that he will not even pay attention to me.

Quietly, where to spend time while having fun

“Wait, student!”

– It seems impossible.

also me No bad luck

Thinking about that, I look in the direction from which the voice came.

A skinny middle-aged man hurriedly runs toward me.

“I’m alive, really…!”

Soon, he stands in front of me and pours out words.

It is the faculty name badge worn on the chest. It seems that it was difficult for him to move properly in a place like this because he was blind at night.

It’s true that movement looks uncomfortable.

“So, can you help me? Just take me to the places I tell you and I will ask others for help.”

“…is all the power in the building cut off?”

“Ehehehe, these trivial things can be fixed in no time if I put my hands on them. Isn’t that what we need to do to restore it?”

I look at the faculty member who answers like that without answering.

Hmm.

I mean him

[ A crisis situation is detected. ]

[There is no direct threat yet, but it is judged that there is clearly hostile intent. ]

[Skill: Applies end-of-life to F grade. ]

He really doesn’t blink and he’s good at lying.

fuck.

‘This must be an assassin?’

In this situation, the target who can have ‘hostile intentions’ towards me cannot be another human being.

No, at best, I gathered all the other kids together and shoved them into one place to tell them not to be attracted to me, so why am I meeting a guy like this?

One bad luck is staggering.

“…I’m sure.”

He replied with a fake smile.

though, what

I think I can deal with it.

If what I’m thinking is correct, that is.

‘Things will be easier than I thought.’

Hasmed thought so and looked at the student in front of him.

He was a man who looked like an ordinary student with no special features. Seeing him fooled without question despite his lies made me look a bit clumsy.

Of course, I can’t blame him easily because his acting will easily fool even the most discerning people.

Hasmed of the Hyeonmoon 弦月.

The leader of the assassination squad that was put in this time.

He was also an assassin known for stealing the form of the person he killed and replicating it perfectly.

And his next target was this student.

‘If you’re a student at the same school, even that Princess Tristan would be caught off guard.’

I heard that the advance party sent in earlier had already been annihilated after being caught by the devil-like woman.

Even though he’s still a student at the academy, he’s an opponent you can’t let your guard down on.

However, even such a person would not be too difficult to deal with in a state of low alertness.

Didn’t even this student get fooled so easily when he immediately disguised himself as a faculty member?

“So, this front is the equipment room.”

Seeing the student say that, Hasmed laughed inwardly.

The reason why I had to guide this student was to gauge his skills up close.

If you were a professional assassin of that level, you could easily tell what level he was by simply looking at his body movements.

And this guy was a complete rookie.

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Just like his usual hobby, it’s enough to torture him to the fullest and then kill him.

‘I’ll take this guy’s body and kill Princess Tristan.’

Perhaps, from what I heard via communication, Princess Tristan was gathered in the central hall with the other students.

When his subordinates, who were put in together, attack that side and everyone is out of their minds, it will be very easy to solve it by approaching from the back in the form of this guy and making a surprise attack.

“okay?”

Hasmed smiled and took out the memorized book from his bosom.

“Well done, then. I should give you a prize.”

He raised the blade and spoke in a grim tone.

Of course, the prize is to die to oneself and pass on that skin.

At this point, the usual course of action would be for the victim to feel doubt and bewilderment, then to deny the situation, and finally to panic.

What he likes most is to enjoy seeing such a reaction-

“Ah, I’m glad. After all, it is Hasmed.”

“…”

The student in front of me said so in a tone that was fortunate.

It was clear that he did not feel any doubt or perplexity, let alone fear.

Rather, he was sweeping his forehead with a sigh as if he was really relieved.

“If he was halfway strong, he could have been rather dangerous, but it’s really fortunate.”

“…what the hell are you talking about?”

“Actually, no matter how I look at it, it looks like that, but it seems like it’s long, so I kept watching it. It’s rather dangerous if it’s a guy who tries to subdue halfway. If you’re a little obscure assassin, you’re going to stand out right away, right?”

“What?”

“But I was a little relieved that I had a little rhinitis, my fingers flicked, I had a bad gait… it was all the same as the habits I used to know.”

“…!”

Hasmed’s face hardened.

While he was looking at this guy, was this guy also looking at himself?

It was a situation I hadn’t even thought of.

He, who was always in a position to thoroughly hunt others, was caught by his prey!

‘I can’t kill him easily.’

You must die after confessing how you know such things.

Having made such a promise, Hasmed immediately rushed forward.

Even if you know those things anyway, your fighting ability is just a weakling. Put an end to it at once!

“Let’s see, the desperate situation is an A-class application…”

But isn’t this crazy-looking guy just muttering incomprehensible things even when he’s rushing at you?

He even picked up a suitable stick that had fallen on the floor nearby. As if you could do something with it.

‘It’s ridiculous.’

He laughed inwardly and wielded a memorized weapon. It would probably be a fatal blow.

However.

The scene that followed was completely different from his expectations.
