chapter 29
8-5. A purple phoenix and a vampire saint.
“Kyahehehe.. Glory be to the cult of warriors..”
Servi touched the wall on the other side. Tuduk. A square-shaped brick that slides in while making a sound.
─Cooggugg…
The ground suddenly vibrates. This means one thing.
Self-destruct gimmick.
This is the case when a player accidentally sets a puzzle incorrectly and gets caught in a trap.
“Are you crazy, Servi?”
Are you going to bury the apostles as well? In the original game, the game would be over and the end would be over, but here a real person would die.
“Of course not! Because the prophecy can’t be wrong, ah..!!”
A pink-haired succubus who smiles like a maniac. In the cult of warriors, there are only really crazy people. I put my hand on the forehead of the helmet.
The fluctuating ceiling and feet. Candles in what seemed to be a chapel fell over and began to go out.
Koogu Palace—!
The entrance door was blocked by stalactites and rocks that fell from above. The believers were terrified and began to scream,
“Please save me.. Help me!!”
“I don’t want to die!!”
“Apostle City, are you abandoning us!!”
The artificial sun next to it hadn’t turned off yet. In spite of the desperate cry of the cult of warriors, the apostle Servi looked at me and Nex and maintained a good-looking expression.
“For the sake of the revival of the Cult of Braves.., Consider it fortunate that you sacrificed.. Garbage.. heheheh…”
Blood gushed out of her mouth. Even dying, I couldn’t understand that kind of fanatical faith. I don’t know if you believe in an authentic warrior like Kainel.
“Pee-it!”
“Junior, shall I solve this?”
Looking at that, the purple phoenix spread its wings wide and wrapped itself around it. Are you trying to protect me and Char?
“Stop it. Seniors. The Cradle of the Phoenix is not to be used.”
“..Maybe it’s possible now that I’ve grown into an adult.”
A skill that provides an absolutely invincible barrier around the user. Now that his spirit has grown into an adult, it is possible.
But even if the compatibility is bad, it’s too bad. Because if you cast it, you can’t get out of there.
“You will be buried alive underground.”
In the end, getting out of here is an urgent priority.
“Yes..? Junior, are you for real?”
“..The spirit also has a downside.”
You’ll collapse from lack of oxygen? Let’s make oxygen with magic, there is a limit to the amount of mana.
I like the phoenix, but not right now. I started rolling my head as much as I could. Is there any way you didn’t write it? How to effectively get out of the dungeon without hurting anyone….
“Your junior is right. If it were the head of the household, it would be impossible for me.”
“That’s because it’s ten.”
Looking at the purple bird, I briefly evaluated it. No matter how hard you try, you won’t be able to melt all of the ceiling of this cave and drill it upwards.
As Nex said, it might be Asha Aureus, who is called the living sun.
Spiritual magic is quite complicated, and even if you become an adult, you lack proficiency. In the original work, it was a skill that rendered him incapacitated. I put my hand on his chin.
“Yes, if you say the hero of intelligence, you should believe it. Junior!”
Nex looked at me and smiled brightly. Looking forward to another brilliant solution. Even an elderly person like that would be an intelligent person.
“Junior.. There is a way, right?”
I feel like this is seriously misunderstood. I didn’t have a holy sword, the proof of a hero, and I wasn’t chosen.
I can see the status window sent by the producer of Though. That’s why I didn’t suspect the cult of warriors.
“…”
Even if I measure my skills, I still won’t be able to follow the toes of the demon lords. At least I had to learn an ultimate skill, and I don’t know if there is a weapon that I mainly use in the game.
“Ha.. My head hurts.”
I looked around. I shouldn’t have been in the middle of the day. I sorted things out again.
‘There is no going back. I can’t even fly upward with a phoenix… Is there a way to do this?’
To escape the way they came from, the escape route has already collapsed and is blocked, and one escape route has completely disappeared due to the brick Servi touched.
What should I do?
Finally, there are two ways left for me.
“Spirit induction, is it possible? Seniors.”
“What? Suddenly..? Won’t you be able to move?”
“I don’t know the power of my spirit, but…. We have to do our best.”
A mass of emotions created while thinking of her. Maybe it will help here. My only options were this and swordsmanship.
For spirits, size wasn’t important.
This is the only sharp move I can remember recently. Magic or divine power was impossible,
“It came to my mind while watching senior’s phoenix.”
If you look at my weapon now, the swordsmanship will shatter the moment I fire one more air strike. If something happens after that, there is no way.
If you’re going to aim, you have to do it all at once.
“Okay. I will only believe in you!”
Nex nodded and put his palm back on my back. The circuit is twisted, but somehow it will come out again.
Because it was a self-made magic that improvised whenever the family called for a spirit.
「Be reborn from the flame.」
Just as I was about to finish those words, a black Pomeranian popped out of my heart.
“Dump!”
This guy’s name is Kamang, so he’s quite affectionate. Cute
“It’s been a while..”
As expected, I still feel a bit tired. I exhaled several times. I’m dizzy, but can I use the empty space?
“Wow!”
Should I admit my feelings here too?
I fell into thought as I saw the black wolf with sparkling eyes looking at me.
What did you not admit? Something that could trigger…
It was then.
“Grrr..”
Looking at Servi, the apostle, my spirit was growling fiercely.
“I’m just a little angry.”
Are my emotions affected? Considering that she even imitated our saintess, it wasn’t strange. No matter what, why did you do that when you ran to the prince?
“Wow! Wow! Growl..”
A guy you don’t even know. I should have used spirits in the game as well. I don’t know about this because I’ve only seen it through Nex.
“Looking at the juniors and the spirits, it is clear that they are not really the cult of warriors. Happy.”
“In the first place, wouldn’t you have come to save Char?”
It’s not my fault, it’s the manufacturer who made it so that spirits wouldn’t appear if you took the saint route before. I heard that other heroine routes come out well.
“There was a reason Mardol liked it so much. It’s nice to see you again.”
Please stop raising the crown prince route flag here too.
The dungeon is about to collapse. That the situation is serious. Dizziness set in.
“Stop it, black man.”
“Heh.”
I summoned the spirit that threatened me by lowering my body like that.

Does it react right away? After all, it seems that Lupus is the main character. I have no choice but to name it like this.
“..I don’t have time. Is there anything you can do?”
“Ki-ing.”
Then, the puppy-like spirit shuddered violently. It looked like a doggie after a bath. Uh, what about this?
“Drill..? Are you talking about that?”
“Wow!”
A Pomeranian who responds with a smile as if agreeing with what I am saying.
There is a way to do this. I had to move quickly before the side effects of the spirit response hit my whole body.
“Seniors!! It will blow up the air ahead, so get ready to go that way!!”
The ability to sell land. If it’s a dog and an animal, of course there will be. Because the phoenix also has the ability to burn or fly.
I pulled my sword out of its scabbard. A weapon that looks dangerous, like already cracked glass.
You only get one chance.
I took my posture again, and as if this was the last time I looked at the shiny silver steel in the cave.
‘You’ve worked hard so far. A pure love injector.’
I looked in the direction of the way out of the original game. Compared to the road we entered, it was narrow, so it would be difficult if the spirit did not open the way for us even after doing this.
“Wow! Whoa!”
A black man. Believe you can Because you must be my feelings toward the saintess.
─Clearly through!!
Once again, masses of wind shot out, piercing the escape route ahead.
“Junior!!”
“Oh, junior..?”
A cold sweat broke out all over my body. Today is the third time in the void, there was no way the group wouldn’t go. In addition, the debuffs called debuffs are lined up by receiving the spirit’s response.
“Please.. Do it.. Kkamang-ah..!”
I collapsed as my body lost strength after the death sentence.
***
─Width.
From the side of the mountain behind the academy, a rather large pile of dirt came up.
“King!”
What came out of that place was a black Pomeranian,
“..Only we survived. The apostle grabbed the ankle until the end as a sacrifice or something.”
“Junior.. Will it be okay? It seems like too much…”
And it was Licht’s party.
“It will be fine because I am guarding it with my phoenix. Your complexion doesn’t look good, but…. I am not hurt.”
“Healing doesn’t work.. What the hell is this body..?”
“Wouldn’t it have been used as a test subject somewhere? To the cult of warriors…”
Two men and women showed a worried attitude toward a junior wearing a knight’s helmet who had fallen unconscious. Where the hell did the warrior suddenly come from? I also had a mind to do it.
I knew all about the location and structure of the dungeon, and I was able to see through the succubus’s plot. I couldn’t see the holy sword, but the possibility was great.
‘I heard that a country boy named Kynell was chosen as the hero of the light….’
Nex recalled the information he had learned earlier in his mind. But the Licht in front of me is different. Even if you search, you can’t even find a family relationship.
There is only one reason why such a strong person was not known to be a hero.
“..I feel sorry for you. Like the princess, Licht, and the Brave Cult members.”
There was a high probability that he had been attacked by the cult of warriors somewhere. He said he had a rough life. He was afraid to raise further suspicions, but it was rude to do that to the lifesaver.
“Well, but at times like this, you look like a freshman.”
“I sleep while blowing my nose..”
Looking at Licht, who climbed on top of his phoenix and slept deeply, Nex felt grateful. Perhaps, without this junior, he would have risked not only his own life, but also Char’s life.
“Thanks, Licht.”
“..I didn’t know that my juniors suffered so much.”
He closed his eyes for a moment and muttered. Just imagining such a future was terrifying. In his dream, Chartineth, who kept blaming himself for dying, still shimmered.
Three academy cadets whose bodies were all covered with dirt, it was already dark.
At that time, a person who reflected the moonlight appeared.
“..I found it.”
“The Princess?”
A knight who came running wearing shiny glass armor.
“Pine! How did you come here!”
“Char sister..? Ugh.”
It was Fine Grancia, using the pseudonym Mardol. When she saw that there was one more person besides Nex and Shartines, she tried to escape, to which the vampire nun rushed in and embraced her.
“I missed you! Blood!”
“Name, no.”
As she was in Char’s arms, she restlessly pointed her hand at Licht, who was sleeping next to her. He expressed her anxiety by vigorously stirring her head.
“It’s okay. Licht junior is sleeping.”
“I probably won’t wake up for half a day. It was too much strain on my body.”
“Ah, thank God…. No it’s okay. Richt?”
Seeing her uncharacteristically prolonged speech, her phoenix and vampire couple widened her eyes. He is a rare person with such emotional changes.
“It will be fine. Except for sleeping to save us?”
“Uh.. Really? Char sister..?”
“Right! Blood..! Licht junior is really strong! I’m even writing black!”
“Yes, strong.”
A calm nod. It meant positive.
“Char was captured by an apostle, and her juniors found her.”
“..I see.”
The glass knight let out a sigh of relief when he finally heard that Licht was sleeping with his snoring.
‘Eh, just like how you saved Char and me today, wouldn’t a junior take care of the princess’s business?’
Nex fell into one assumption. He knew about the demon king to the core, and among the students at this academy, he was as strong as Fine.
“You really are..”
A glass knight staring at his junior wearing a black knight helmet. He looked at it and realized he was missing something. How could the country’s princess be here now? Question to do.
“Princess.. But how did you get here?”
“I was looking for it.”
“It must have been less than a few hours since my junior and I disappeared..?”
“Imperial Guard. Called.”
As she finished her words, a figure of colorful stars jumped out from behind her. Fast paced, just like the people who were there from the start.
All have similar wolf ears and tails,
“Iron Wolf. Nice to meet you!”
“The copper wolf assists one of the empires.”
“Silver Wolf, Glory to the Ten.”
“Jonmyung, the golden wolf will escort Miss Grancia.”
Four swordsmen divided into colors like the currency of the empire. It was the first time Nex had ever seen the real thing.
“You really called. Let’s do it…. Even if I went to the cathedral, no one would have been there.”
“It’s a bit excessive, but…”
At that time, one of the guards gave me a strange look.
A flash of silver light pulled from the waist dance.
─Clap.
A figure with the color of steel was aiming a sword at Licht.
Looking at the black knight, he thought he was an outsider no matter how much he thought about it, so he tried to prepare before anything happened,
“..Iron?”
“Yes..? Princess?”
The princess suddenly uttered a cold tone. I got goosebumps. As a member of the Royal Guard, her principle is to protect the people she serves.
“I didn’t follow your orders.”
His hands began to tremble.
“It is against the rules for a suspicious person who is neither a teenager nor a member of the empire to see the princess….”
I tried to answer with an excuse in my head.
“Put away the sword.”
“…”
But what came back was a short-answer command. Golden eyes narrowed inside the glass helmet.
“Sorry!! Princess!! This guy is still a rookie!”
“I would like to apologize instead. You are one of the empires.”
“Please forgive me.”
Obviously knowing that the situation was very wrong, the other members pressed the steel wolf’s head with their hands and apologized over and over again.
“..Can’t you hear me?”
It was a ruin situation for anyone to see. The figure wearing golden armor that looked like a captain let out a long sigh.
“Pine Grancia. Sorry. I will take all responsibility.”
“..I’m going to scold you. Gold.”
Fine, who made me withdraw the sword, muttered in a low tone that he was annoyed. No matter how you look at it, it must be true that Licht saved Nex and Char. His body was covered with sweat.
A piercing golden gaze.
She has better eyesight than most, so she was able to recognize it right away.
A strong person.
Looking at the muscles slightly visible through the clothes, Fine thought. How many swordsmen could rise to this level without mana or magic?
‘How much stronger can I become here? Richt.’
Perhaps there is none other than this man. The wolf ears moved in the helmet in awe.
The Empire’s swordsman, Wolf Fang, is also a person who has mastered it at once. It was different from others.
At that time, he had a black hair ball running at him.
“King!!”
“Black..?”
Licht’s spirit circled around Fine, showing off their intimacy.
Her black sock-like feet and distinctive smile were muddy, but she didn’t care because she was cute to her.
“..Stop licking.”
“Heh, heh.”
A black Pomeranian greeting her with her tongue sticking out. Fine was crouching down, gently brushing her hair, as if he was used to it now.
“I really like Licht’s junior spirit, Fine. Then saying that we’re not friends seems like a lie…”
“Because that’s what I said. Char.”
As soon as Fine’s touch touched her, the spirit laid her down and looked her belly up into the sky. An attitude of complete trust.
“Yes, nice.”
“Dump!”
Seeing that scene, the SS was at a loss for words, and the Nex couple nodded in satisfaction.
After some time, when Fine stops scratching her belly and tries to leave her place,
“Ki-ing..”
A Pomeranian standing upright at Fine’s feet because of his large armor. He was doing aegyo by scratching his legs.
“..Ah, this would be nice.”
Looking at that, she said in a voice that seemed to have a good idea, whether she wanted to be with Licht’s spirit more.
Tuk, tutuk.
There was a sound of a metal link coming loose.
“Uh..? Blood..?”
“Wait, Princess?!”
Fine took off her helmet and set it down beside her. She then put her hand on her chest. Then her crystal armor was partially opened, revealing a girl in white from head to toe.
A white-haired woman with wolf ears wearing the costume of Grand Hearts Academia.
“No matter how hard you take off the masterpiece…!”
“Noisy.”
The SS screamed in surprise, but she didn’t care. She made this choice because she was afraid that she would scare Kkamangi like she did just a moment ago.
She has already pointed her sword at Licht, so she doesn’t make mistakes twice.
“Dwarves are really perverts. I can feel it again that I increased my height and size just because the proportions of the armor didn’t match.”
“I will..”
Pine took off his heavy gloves and came down to the ground, and the large new model shrank. The feel of the grass wrapped around her toes.
“Wow!”
“Whoop.. Cute.”
The girl with gray hair and wolf ears embraced Licht’s spirit, and her expression, which had been frozen for the first time in a while, was slightly relaxed.
Seeing that, the SS were dumbfounded. That kind of reaction from the glass-cold princess? She was odd no matter how you look at it.
“Uh..? Leader. Was the princess originally like that?”
“No.. What the hell are you doing? With that man…”
“If Your Majesty knows.”
“For now, let’s keep today a secret..”
Four members of the bodyguard muttering in inaudible voices.
“Ah, Djour-nim told me that he was already scolding me for pointing a knife at me..”
I was trying to figure out how to get out of the situation where I made a mistake, but failed miserably. They knew that their superiors had already gone against their planting.
“..I thought it was dangerous because it was the first call in years!!!”
After the silent clamor of the person in the golden armor,
In that way, the first threat to the academy by the Cult of the Braves was finished.
