Episode 116 Darkness about to be revealed (3)
Fortunately, there were many movements to evacuate throughout the academy.
Even so, the order of the saint has been invoked.
Unless he had a swollen liver, there was no way anyone would remain at that order.
People who packed their belongings and locked the store began to evacuate the academy.
‘I don’t know when the magic circle will be activated.’
That impatience made Ray hurry.
He was thinking of going to suppress the magic circle.
I couldn’t tell exactly where the boundary of the magic circle was, but that was because the distance was too far.
If the distance is close, there is no way he will not be able to recognize him, who has mana sensitivity that transcends the human category.
After already asking for relief supplies and an emergency order from Iriel.
Rei looked at Aira and said.
“Ira, won’t you protect people who are evacuating from monsters?”
Asking her, as an elf, to protect humans doesn’t fit the way of another world.
This is because they are of different races and have a very weak perception of ‘protecting’ each other.
Moreover, humans raided elven villages and did a lot of cruel things, enslaving the captured elves.
Naturally, elves have no choice but to hate humans more than dwarves.
Such a request could have been turned down.
However, right now, hands are very lacking.
It was because the security guards who caught the petty thieves just couldn’t deal with the huge monsters.
Aira nodded at Ray’s words.
“If it’s your request, there’s nothing I won’t listen to.”
Immediately turning around like the wind, she suddenly disappeared.
That’s formidable speed. He didn’t even use magic, but it was really fraudulent to say that he had this much speed with just his pure body.
Since I left it to her and not to anyone else, maybe only those who are evacuating need to worry less.
Ray also turned around.
He has to go to the outskirts of the academy.
I was very curious about what the local line guards were doing, leaving them alone until the magic circle was completed.
Of course, I don’t think it’s common sense that I didn’t work.
If a magic circle of this scale was to be completed, it would have taken several years.
There were a lot of idiots to see that I had been playing without doing anything.
Ray’s model moved as if it were melting into thin air.
It was so fast that if he didn’t protect his clothes with mana, he would be torn apart.
That’s because the current situation was critical and it was such a big deal that the life and death of the kingdom was at stake.
I can’t figure out the exact location in the first place, so I can’t do anything but run.
Ray then moved towards the outskirts at high speed.
* * *
Irriel explained the situation to the security guards who patrolled and the guards who jumped out at the sound that monsters had left the safe zone and flowed into the city center, and immediately moved to Silien.
If you look at the area called Academy, it could be seen as northern and southern, but the southern area is quick to evacuate to Gehel, and the northern area is quick to move to Silien.
In terms of distance alone, the southern area is close to Gehel, so quick evacuation is possible, while the northern area and Silien are separated by a mountain range, so it was not a distance that could be said to be close even as a joke.
Then, if someone from the 2nd power or the 3rd power attacked, which would be more dangerous?
It was a matter of course that the ships of the refugees of Shillien would be more dangerous than the refugees of Gehel.
That’s why Iriel’s steps were quite fast.
‘There are no supplies prepared. If the number of people suddenly increases, confusion will increase…!’
Her speed through the forest and over the trees was frightening.
Her unique new method, which uses overwhelming divine power, deftly avoids obstacles in front of her.
Unlike Ray, she can activate divine power in her body.
From a physical point of view, he was clearly superior to Ray.
The elasticity that comes out of the long legs properly rides the muscles of the whole body to bring out the maximum efficiency.
That’s why he was moving forward far too much compared to the amount of divine power he was consuming.
At some point, she realized that there were people following her.
number is five.
My skin tingled at the mighty mana I felt from them.
If they continued to run like this, they would be able to escape, but if that happened, the lives of the refugees evacuating to Silien could not be guaranteed.
As a saint, I can’t wait to see the scene where my people are massacred.
Iriel looked around and quickly scanned the highs and lows.
It was to figure out the topography.
Before a battle is fought, it is a battle of information.
How much do you know the other person and are you aware of the terrain?
from large to small. Winning is not only about skill, but also about things like this.
When she stopped, the figures following her also stopped.
They slowly appeared.
“Wow, are you really a saint?”
“…don’t make noise in front of the enemy.”
“no way. But what if you’re going to die anyway? ha ha ha.”
“Speaking frivolous things in front of high-ranking people…”
Three young men and two middle-aged men.
There were only two young men talking.
Iriel said to them.
“These are unfamiliar faces. You know I’m a saint and you’re doing this… which kingdom is it?”
“….”
“I didn’t expect you to tell me.”
Despite saying that, Iriel is in a state of considerable tension.
The energy you feel from your opponent. It was a dangerous thing that only rulers could have.
The three young men don’t know.
Two of the young men standing over there could be turned into meat bandits in an instant if she decided.
But what gets caught is the middle-aged people in front.
They stand there without saying anything, but the mana they feel is very similar to Zeke’s.
That said, at least two of them were sword masters.
It wouldn’t be easy if it was one, but if there were two sword masters, it wouldn’t be easy for her either.
Three young men drew their swords.
“I’d rather fight a saint than a saint… Jeop.”
Iriel burst into a snort at the light-hearted young man’s words.
You’re going to fight him for what seems like only a mana user?
To that unprecedented monster that even the Bone Dragon was unable to injure, let alone a necromancer?
A kid who barely managed to win even if he competed one-on-one with a student who had just graduated from the academy, let alone himself!
The young man looked at Iriel and smiled as if he had noticed her intentions.
“Don’t ignore me too much? Even if you look at it like this, I have the experience of killing many priests who looked down on me.”
Saying that, three young men began to surround her.
It looks like it’s probably going to be a checkup.
However, Iriel, who couldn’t move quickly because he was worried about middle-aged people, couldn’t do anything until the checkup finally took place.
A subtle pressure began to weigh down on her as she entered the group of three passers-by.
A checkup that seemed to maximize the strength of each person.
If you block the first attack, the next attack will be stronger than the first.
They drained each other’s mana and mixed it into the checkup… They were like a so-called magic team.
Young people started attacking Iriel.
Iriel slightly turned her head to avoid the sword aiming for the neck.
A sword attack that immediately cuts through the cartilage in the wrist.
He also easily dodged it with a slight tilt of his hand.
Mana began to form on the swords of the young men who began to have stronger mana than the first time.
The young men who gained confidence in him were excited and cut down Iriel.
It was unusual for her.
Qualifications are pretty good, but that’s it.
A poor combination of poor swordsmanship.
Conceit beyond self-confidence in a lax sword aura.
These are things that aren’t worth fighting for.
Yellow divine power formed on her hand.
Then, with one swing, two young men backed away, spurting blood.
With that single attack, the examination was destroyed.
what kind of pass is this? If you’re going to give up the check-up just because you barely scratched your side, why do you want to open it?
Iriel burst into laughter at their not funny appearance.
“Don’t worry, I’ll kill you right away. If you lie there and count the stars, it will be over in no time.”
It wasn’t something a saintess would say.
However, Iriel was not a kind enough saint to save her country and those who were seeking her life.
No, she even had the tendency to transform into a bad saint if the harm was greater than the benefit.
The divine power in her hand attacked them in an instant.
It is impossible for the young people to stop her hand, which only aims at the lifeline with her neat skills.
Unlike the first time, one of the middle-aged people in the back rescued the young man who was looking at Iriel with a rather tired complexion.
It’s unbelievably dull to be the sound of a sword and a hand colliding
.
The middle-aged sword master took a step back as if he had suffered a loss from his move.
However, Iriel’s expression remained the same.
With this one move, it was clearly determined who had the upper hand.
In the first place, on a one-on-one basis, even Zeke could not compete with Iriel.
There was no way to know what level the sword master in front of me was, but if there was only one, there would be no reason to be pushed back.
However, Iriel was surprised for another reason.
‘In which kingdom do two sword masters…’
Young people are not in her mind in the first place.
The only ones interested were the two sword masters.
Is there a country that has enough power to use for the assassination of a saint when the power of the kingdom is not enough?
‘If it were the Lessian Empire, it would be possible… But…’
The Lessian Empire had no merit even if it eliminated the saintess.
If it is revealed that he killed the saintess, a crusade will break out, but if that happens, the Lessian Empire will lose the war unless there is a way to defeat the saint.
The Lessian Empire wasn’t stupid enough to put two sword masters into a job that had only demerits.
Then there is no country that can make the current situation possible.
I could only think of it as a third force.
He moves rebel forces, controls monsters, and has a necromancer.
Not only that, but now that I knew that I also possessed a sword master, I began to fear the unknown forces in the dark.
Iriel shook his head.
‘I don’t have time to think about this right now.’
If you see a gap even for a moment, you will die.
Such is the fight between those who have reached the extreme.
A momentary gap. A fight inside the consciousness that stabs it.
The saying that victory or defeat is decided even before a battle takes place is only possible for those who have reached this extreme level.
She and the two middle-aged men stood like statues with their swords drawn.
Momentum and momentum swirl and begin to collide.
The youth did not dare to intervene there.
A fight over the right to attack to the point that your flesh would be torn apart if you approached.
Overwhelming helplessness Living naturally.
All of that prevented them from intervening.
Everyone has their own area.
This is called ‘Absolute field’ in professional terms in the swordsmanship academy.
Why is a name given to something that is, at most, a sword that can be wielded?
It’s because it’s ‘natural’ to die if you enter the territory.
The distance that the sword master’s full blow can reach. The limit line that can kill a life in the blink of an eye.
That is the absolute realm.
My own street, my own territory.
My own line of life and death that others cannot reach.
Within that realm, it can be seen that they have the right of life and death of others.
So, it is natural to fight to expand the territory before the battle takes place.
Iriel’s absolute domain is approximately seven meters.
However, the domain of the sword masters in front of them was only four meters.
Should it be called the difference in skill?
As if the middle-aged people noticed that fact, one person stepped into Iriel’s territory.
However, Iriel couldn’t blow off the middle-aged man’s ankle right away.
This is because the middle-aged man who follows has also entered her territory.
One will be able to kill enough, but the other will kill her too.
oh my god!
To be a sword master and disregard your life?
Isn’t this something only low-level soldiers use!
