Episode 79. The beginning of Kyler’s Potion, the first chapter of
Lucia Everlast’s sincerity, was right before the midterm evaluation.
Because the original flow was that an incident occurred during the mid-term evaluation due to a potion leaked right before the evaluation, I never thought that it would happen at this point, only two weeks after the start of the new semester.
‘The changed future changed the scenario.’
No matter how much I tried to change the future in the game, the big picture didn’t change.
This was an unavoidable limitation of the game, but I overlooked the fact that reality is different.
‘What changed was the result of the tournament and the unexpected exchange meeting. I thought it didn’t change much, but the butterfly effect was unpredictable.’
Kyler’s disciple, Guardian Pell, gambles away all his fortune and sells Kyler’s potions under the alias Antonio.
Of course, if it was an ordinary potion, it would be considered a minor theft, but the problem is that the potion he leaked was not ordinary.
He clicked his tongue as he watched Grace’s shoulders gradually swell and change into a deformed appearance.
There are probably students taking potions in other places by now.
‘If the future had changed, all the people who bought the potion would have changed.’
First of all, he had to deal with Grace in front of him.
As long as he ate the black magic potion, there’s nothing he can do about it.
“Adrias Cromwell! Come on! Are you scared!”
Except for me, the students were watching me and Grace, who were bizarrely changing, with expressions that didn’t know what to do.
it’s better He was a guy who would become a stumbling block to Keshurn.
‘I can handle it legally.’
For this moment, I would like to express my gratitude to Kyler’s disciple, Guardian.
Without hesitation, I rushed at Grace without hesitation.
“Ha ha ha ha ha! You jump like a moth!”
“shut up.”
Putting magic aside for a while, he prepared a sword that changed.
When I blew the sword wind a while ago, what I felt was quite solid defense.
‘I’ll pierce it.’
Sharply and with one point.
The mana gathered in the sword became thin and gathered at one point at the same time.
‘And turn.’
The aura rotated at the tip of the sword and stabbed it straight through.
“It doesn’t work!”
Quagga gagagak!
With a tremendous noise, mana fragments bounced here and there.
Shrapnel ricocheted at me, scarring me, but I didn’t care.
‘Grace. I was conceited.’
My sword began to puncture Grace’s mana shield bit by bit.
Embarrassed, Grace lifted the roar of dawn with her deformed thick arms and activated a new magic.
“this person! die!”
The mana arrows that were activated at super close range poured out.
However, I, who had predicted it in advance, avoided it and prepared a new sword again.
‘Enough cracked, now….’
heavier heavier.
Mana, whose nature had changed, stayed on my sword with an overwhelming mass.
I grabbed Galaksur with both hands and swung it from top to bottom as if I were swinging a huge greatsword.
Kwak-!
The mana shield shattered with a huge explosion.
However, my sword, which lost its destructive power from breaking the mana shield, could not kill Grace and was blocked by her thick arm.
“Aaaagh!”
As the scratch formed on her hard arm, Grace sighed and stepped back.
The moment he chased after him and tried to attack.
“stop! What are you doing!”
One of the Mirco Academy students jumped out and blocked my way.
Even though my appearance has changed strangely, they still don’t know that Grace took a potion related to black magic, so of course they will try to stop me.
I knew it would be like this and tried to end it when people couldn’t grasp the situation, but Grace’s defense was stronger than I thought.
“No matter how much Her Highness Grace tried to provoke you, that number would kill her! Are you crazy about trying to kill the prince of Mayr Kingdom?”
I tried to kill him and make excuses, but what should I do?
While we were pausing and confronting, Grace suddenly started acting bizarrely.
“huh? majesty?”
Grace grabbed the student who was protecting her with her hugely swollen right arm and squeezed it out with her hands.
Kwajik.
Silence enveloped the inside of the banquet hall for a moment at the unrealistic scenery, and soon a scream broke out.
“omg! It’s four murders!”
“iced coffee….”
“Kyaaaagh!”
The surroundings were all in a commotion, but Grace seemed not to care and took the student she killed and began to eat it.
The shocking appearance caused a second panic among the students.
‘The monster is done.’
Like that, you will gradually lose your reason and later forget who you were.
I’m sorry for the student who died while stopping me, but thanks to you, I have a reason to kill Grace.
The transformation of the body did not end there either.
Perhaps as time goes by, it will become more and more out of human form.
All of the students, who belatedly noticed that Grace was not normal, began to be wary of him.
“Geug go away.”
Grace, who had blood around her mouth, tossed the corpse she was holding and smiled.
It was hard to be called human anymore.
Whiik.
Slap!
Suddenly, someone jumped at Grace.
‘Vivian.’
Her sword lightly sliced through Grace’s hard arm.
“It hurts!”
I felt it once again, but Vivian’s swordsmanship skills were also different from before.
In the past, if he had a strong feeling of losing his reason and wielding it according to his instincts, now he commands the sword according to his own intentions.
Starting with Vivian’s attack, I also intervened.
Kwajik-!
pug.
Vivian and I passed each other as if we were dancing together, swinging our swords at Grace.
Losing her reason, Grace, as if she forgot to use magic, just wielded her grotesquely transformed arms at will, and died without any resistance.
“Move!”
Diene’s cry was heard.
As soon as Vivian and I stepped back, the metal magic that Diene had been preparing for a long time exploded.
‘Iron impale.’
Huge steel spikes protruding from the ground pierced Grace.
As expected, the firepower itself could not keep up with advanced magic.
‘for a moment. Advanced magic?’
Did you learn advanced magic before you knew it?
Diene’s growth seems to be getting faster and faster.
It was to the point where I was afraid that I might be able to create original magic before graduation.
“Ouch. Ooh.”
Grace couldn’t even speak properly and was bleeding to death.
I felt a little sorry for not knowing that things would turn out like this.
‘It’s all self-inflicted, but that guy wouldn’t have known that the potion he ate was like that.’
He dealt with Grace, but it was too soon to be relieved.
As you can see, Grace is a magician, but her body transformation alone was enough to withstand Vivian’s sword.
What if the knight drank this potion?
‘There must have been an uproar outside.’
All I can think of right now is the need to protect Serena, Chris, and Lucia.
It didn’t matter if they were all right, but a strange conflict arose in my heart.
‘I don’t know who the Guardian sold the potion to, so I don’t know where to start.’
Should I go to the Knights Faculty to help the two who are still only freshmen?
Or should I go help Lucia, who may be stuck in the lab alone?
While he was thinking about it, students approached, led by Diane.
They sent trembling eyes as they watched Grace, who was persistently living her life.
“How did this happen? Is this monster really Prince Grace?”
“Are you dead? did you buy What should I do?”
Leaving behind the murmur, I took a slight step back.
After much thought, my choice leaned toward Lucia.
‘Current Lucia is weak. I have talent, but I’m not strong because I neglected my efforts. Besides, since I’m alone in the lab, there’s a high probability that I don’t even know that there’s a commotion outside.’
As I was sorting out my thoughts, Vivian sneaked up next to me.
“Adrias. What are you thinking about?”
“Vivian.”
okay. Vivian was there.
my soul mate.
“Vivian. I have a favor.”
* * *
Tiriri― Tiriri.
Lucia Everast rubbed her sleepy eyes at the sound of the alarm that signaled the time to leave the room and began organizing the materials she had been researching.
When Adrias first told me about this research, I thought I could see a light.
He felt that he might be able to bring an answer to his treatment, which had not been progressing.
However, he was about to lose his strength in the research that had not been progressing for several months.
‘I felt like I could see something when Adrias-senpai was next to me.’
Shall we ask for help again?
Lately, I have been wanting to lean on Adrias, and it was a day when I felt skeptical about my ability.
‘Isn’t it all meaningless? After all, am I destined to die?’
Once I started feeling skeptical, I became endlessly pessimistic.
I didn’t want to feel this kind of feeling, so I tried to erase it with sleep, but these days, even that seemed to have reached its limit.
“Should I just give up?”
Now that I think about it, the research I am doing right now feels like an advisory of hope.
Even if this research went to the end, there was no certainty that it would be his cure.
match!
Lucia hit her cheek with both hands.
Both cheeks were red and swollen, but he shook his head and said.
“Let’s go to sleep.”
After tidying up the common lab, I felt a strange noise coming from outside.
When I followed the noise and came out of the building, I saw a person with a bizarre appearance there.
‘person…?’
What I thought was a person had four arms.
And the size was so big that it couldn’t be thought of as a normal person, but it seemed to be close to 3 meters.
“Arujanyamijarebakatchi….”
It was standing alone in the empty lot of the research building with its head bowed and making strange noises, and already around it were several students from the Faculty of Magic as well as itself, taking pictures with their tablets.
“Hey what is that? Isn’t it dangerous?”
“Did the monster you were breeding get released by mistake? But it’s the first monster I’ve ever seen.”
At that time, it stood still and muttered, but suddenly raised its head and looked at the students.
In addition to the two eyes, the long torn eyes on the forehead and the corners of the mouth that touch the ears aroused fear.
“find. did all.”
Weiying.
The sound of mana gathering was heard, and soon it began to use magic.
‘Magic?’
The Quagga River—!
In an instant, the listed mana turned into magic and attacked the students.
At that overwhelming speed, one student was directly hit.
“Aww!”
“What is that!”
When the panicked students were unable to respond, the monster’s magic flew once again.
thud! Kwajijik!
However, this magic was blocked by someone.
When the students turned around, Lucia, who had been using defensive magic, was slowly pulling out a staff from her bosom.
“Don’t stay away and run away.”
Lucia, who judged the opponent’s level with the shock of knocking on the defense magic a while ago, was able to notice that this monster was a guy that ordinary students could not handle.
The monster once again fired magic at burst levels, and Lucia shouted again as she defended herself.
“Run away quickly! Go get the professors or call them!”
“Ah Okay!”
When all the students ran away, Lucia let out a sigh and glanced at the monster with a cold expression.
“I don’t really want to be a hero, but I can’t help it.”
Judging by reason, the only person who seemed able to stop that monster was himself.
But even she was unexpected.
“catch. kill it.”
The guy who was using magic suddenly started running towards Lucia.
Never expecting to engage in a hand-to-hand combat, she calmly used her magic, even though she was slightly taken aback.
Papababak!
Magic arrows hit the monster.
I literally just knocked on it without being able to plug it in.
“ah…!”
Lucia hurriedly rolled her body to avoid the monster’s attack, but a gigantic body and four arms chased after her.
He was able to hurriedly spread the force field with mana and block it before reaching his grasp, but soon the monster’s magic was activated.
“Melt. kill it.”
Incredible heat began to boil around Lucia and the monster.
Soon, the surrounding ground began to melt, and Lucia, hidden in the force field, began to choke.
‘Oxygen… ….’
Are you going to die like this?
Yes. If you die saving people who were destined to die anyway, there’s nothing better.
Of course, it’s a bit unfortunate to die without knowing the identity of this suddenly appeared monster.
….
….
….
…no.
I really want to live.
I don’t want to die.
“I want to live… …!”
Aaaaang-!
Lucia’s eyes widened with tears from the sudden explosion.
The epicenter of the binge drinking was a monster that stood in front of itself and used tremendous high-temperature magic.
And the monster was now rolling on the floor far away with its entire body bent.
“I’m sorry I’m late.”
A familiar voice came.
And she could see the shadow standing in front of her.
An old blackened sword and, as always, a dull-colored robe.
It’s from the back, but even the hair that looks like wakame seaweed.
“Senior Adrias.”
