Academy’s Undercover Professor Chapter 671

Episode 671: The Enemies (2)

Kwakwakwakwang!

An explosion occurred with a deafening roar.

Clouds of smoky dust rose up one after another, and the smoke was torn apart by the force bursting out from within and scattered in all directions.

The wind blew

No, it was actually a storm.

An unbelievable result of a collision between weapons and weapons.

The one who created it was a wolf knight over 5 meters tall on one side and a human wearing golden clothes on the other side.

Awww!!

Wolf Knight Hans howled.

The bodies of the priests and paladin magicians who heard that howl froze.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

The technologies they were preparing to support were not properly implemented and were scattered into thin air.

The monster of Jebodang has a strange power.

A wave of force that preemptively disrupts the opponent’s technique itself.

But Tarian was fine.

Tarian was a captain-level paladin and was known as the strongest paladin of his time.

Although he has never fought against anyone, there was a lot of talk in the world that he would be on par with Luther, the best swordsman on the continent.

To such a Tarian, Hans’s shouts were nothing more than a slightly irritating noise.

“What a noisy guy.”

A huge golden flash of light traced the path of Tarian’s sword.

A dazzling light flashed beneath the dark clouds.

Hans lifted his cursed greatsword and blocked Tarian’s sword.

It wasn’t the howling I had been expecting anyway.

From the beginning, it was to interfere with the annoying support around me.

Hans jumped high and back tumbled backwards to avoid the long, horizontally swinging golden sword.

The black wolf pack behind Hans split horizontally and disappeared.

Tarian, who saw Hans flying in the air, tried to run to him at the right time when he landed on the ground.

but·

Ta-a-t! Hans stomped on the air and jumped into the air.

“Flying through the air?”

This was something that even Tarian had not expected.

Walking on air?

Krrrr!

The power Hans wields isn’t limited to the monsters of Jebodang.

The power of the Wolf Lord, the guardian of the Ulburg family.

The wind walk, which involves manipulating the wind and becoming one with it, was also available in the current state.

Blame, blame, blame,

Hans started to move, stepping on the air several times.

‘This·’

Tarian’s eyes narrowed.

He was originally a fast guy who didn’t match his size, but now that he can move through the air, he’s even harder to deal with.

Movements that are hard to believe, even the sky itself becomes his foothold.

Now, it was time to pay attention to the front, back, left, right, and even the top.

Kwajik!

The moment Tarian showed his weakness, Hans dropped from the air and swung his cursed greatsword straight down.

Tarian created a large golden shield with his divine power in one hand and held it upright at an angle.

The greatsword sliced ​​through part of the shield, but did not penetrate completely and was stuck in the ground.

The ground where the sword was stuck was blackened and rotted away by the curse.

Tarian, who was about to swing his golden sword at that moment, had no choice but to step back.

Hans’s cloak fluttered as he landed on the ground, and darkness rushed towards Tarian from inside.

No, it wasn’t dark.

‘A wolf?’

What appeared to be darkness was a black wolf.

The wolves that emerged from the cloak showed their sharp teeth and tried to bite Tarian’s vital points.

Yeah, he’s the monster of the report party.

A legion-level monster that stands at the top of all cryptids and can infinitely multiply such cryptids.

“dare!”

Tarian released divine power from his entire body and pushed away the wolves.

The fierce golden flames turned the black wolves into ash.

‘Are you planning to divert my sight with this and then just dodge?’

Tarian calculated in his head until then and prepared for the next attack.

But Hans moved one step ahead of Tarian.

Long, curved legs

The legs, which were reverse-jointed like those of a wolf, were covered with dark greaves.

The kick of the large body covered in thick armor was quite threatening in itself.

Tarian gave up on attacking and immediately switched to defense.

Wow!

A golden cross appeared next to him and blocked Hans’ kick.

Quaching!

However, the cross was made a little late and was not strong enough.

Hans’ kick shattered the cross like glass and hit Tarian squarely in the side.

Tarian’s body flew to the side, but Hans did not chase after Tarian.

Tarian, who had been in midair, landed lightly and glared at Hans.

He must have had broken ribs and a torn internal organ, but he looked perfectly fine.

Grrrrr

Hans re-wrote his sword, crying out in alarm.

Tarian felt strong conviction as he looked at the sight.

“You know what I’m going to do.”

It’s not about seeing the future or reading minds.

It was just that the other side was one step ahead in preparation for this side’s reading.

“Just looking at the way you fight, it doesn’t seem like you have much knowledge about combat.”

Just as Hans analyzed Tarian, Tarian analyzed Hans.

The guy is a novice when it comes to fighting.

To be exact, I didn’t know how to calculate and fight.

He was wearing armor and standing on two legs, even holding a weapon.

The movements and actions themselves were sloppy, like those of someone holding a sword for the first time.

It was as if a beast had just become human and was entering the battlefield for the first time.

But it was that movement that covered it all.

A beast’s instinct so sharp that it could be called a sixth sense.

Hans’ fighting style was crude, but it was primitive and threatening.

If this side tries to force a loophole and use it, it instinctively catches it like a ghost and avoids the trap.

“When you see them fighting, you can’t say they’re irrational.”

It is neither a war of attrition using a pack of wolves nor a weapon in hand.

The guy clearly had a thinking mind.

However, their fighting style is no different from that of wild beasts.

If I was the type that was good at thinking, it wouldn’t have been this annoying.

“I never thought I’d have to give this much trouble to his subordinates before defeating the Demon King. I didn’t have any complacent thoughts of ignoring him, but I think I need to do something right here too.”

Tarian released divine power.

This time, the golden power was sprayed, focusing on the wingtips on his shoulders instead of his entire body.

The divine power of gold soon took the form of wings.

A halo spread out behind Tarian’s head.

In one hand he holds a blazing golden sword.

In the other hand he holds a sacred shield.

Behind his back are wings and on his head is a holy halo.

Tarian looked like a heavenly warrior sent directly from God.

Hans, seeing Tarian like that, gripped his sword tighter.

The curse flowing from the greatsword grew stronger and a dark, murky aura rose like a mist.

The wolves howled as countless red eyes emerged from within the cloak.

* * *

The follow-up force of the Crusade was having some difficulties.

Because the coast where the ships anchor is not that wide, there is a limit to the number of people moving at once.

In the end, the military had no choice but to move with the elite.

According to reports from those who have already landed on the island, the Demon King is using some tricks, so it would be better for ordinary soldiers not to go.

The power that can be operated here is limited to magicians, priests, knights, and paladins.

Moreover, the steam golems and powered suit armored vehicles operated by regular infantry are said to be of no use.

In terms of numbers alone, more than 90% of the entire force was rendered useless.

However, the infantrymen were unable to give up their foolishness and landed to build a base on the coast.

The moment the green air current blowing from afar enveloped them, the situation changed.

The infantrymen collapsed on their seats without showing any reaction.

The sight of hundreds of people collapsing on the sand at once seemed quite far removed from reality.

“What is this····”

The knight checked the condition of the fallen infantryman.

They weren’t dead. They were asleep, judging by their breathing and breathing evenly.

“You fell asleep?”

Could it be that the sleeping pollen has come all the way here?

Even if everything else is the same, how can the power be this strong?

The power of the green current just now was so great that even the knights would have fallen asleep if they hadn’t properly protected themselves with aura.

This made it virtually impossible to send out ordinary soldiers.

In the end, the landing force could only consist of elite troops, less than 10% of whom

“I can’t believe all the infantry was annihilated.”

“The road to heaven is closed. You have to go to the castle on your own two feet.”

“We lost contact with the advance unit that went ahead. What on earth happened?”

Bretos, once called the most sacred place

But now that it has fallen into the hands of the Demon King, that island has become a space filled with the most fearful unknowns.

“Hmm, things are going really strangely.”

Among the wizards who landed on the island, there were some who gave off a completely different vibe from other war mages.

They were Seorun’s teachers.

At the forefront was Elisha Willow, whose attire and appearance were unbecoming of the temple.

She glanced sideways at the soldiers being carried out on stretchers, quickly checking their condition.

‘This····’

A sense of foreboding at the sight of soldiers in deep sleep.

Elisa immediately realized that the soldiers were now in Dreamland.

‘A faint trace left in the air. This is clearly Dreamwalker magic. Now that I think about it, the Dream School didn’t participate in this holy war. They said everyone disappeared as they emptied the school building.’

In other words, the current dream school is on the side of the Demon King Heathcliff.

‘The power of the Dream School has been greatly reduced with the deaths of Clara Cowen, the master of the school, and the oldest member, Zantman, and the deaths of other veteran Dreamwalkers during the Dreamland incident, but even so, the dream magic they possess is very difficult to deal with.’

The magic of the Dream School is not specialized in physically killing people like other elemental magic or pure magic.

Their magic rather cleverly penetrates the opponent’s mind, shaking it or putting it into a deep sleep.

It is not a lethal magic, but it is the best magic for incapacitating the opponent.

It won’t work on wizards or knights of the same level, though.

It was a tremendous force for ordinary soldiers who had no resistance to magic.

‘I made them sleep on purpose. Since our forces are overwhelming, they probably want to fight with minimal force without expending much resources.’

But Elisa sensed intent in these actions.

‘Blatant stalling. What the command said was true.’

The enemies were now trying to buy time.

That is why the command was trying to end this war by rushing in as quickly as possible.

Because I didn’t know what would happen if I gave the Demon King time.

Elisa felt a strange sense of alienation while understanding the attitude of the commanding officers.

‘I understand the anxiety that the other person might do something, but is there really any need to be that anxious and impatient?’

Elisa seemed to feel some kind of pressure from the leadership to make this temple a great success, as if they were watching someone’s every move.

‘It must have been a similar tune that you and I both came forward to participate in the temple.’

The moment he entered the empire, the second son, Ivellon, was suddenly designated as the next emperor, not Irene, and Ivellon actively supported the Holy Emperor Saleshin.

Although Elisa said she did not get involved in politics, she was not unaware of this strange trend.

‘The Holy Nation is hiding some kind of power. Perhaps some kind of mental ability to dominate others.’

That will be used to control the leaders of each country.

Because they had something in common: they met priests and archbishops sent from the Holy Land.

‘Then the question is, why are we okay?’

Elisa thought of Saint Catherine.

The reason why she suddenly came to Seorun

A favor that was secretly shown to oneself

‘That’s funny. The saint and the holy emperor don’t walk the same path.’

Cracks carved inside the Brethrus

A smile appeared on Elisa’s lips as she confirmed it.

I don’t know what the outcome will be in this temple, but if I dig into it carefully, I might be able to avoid the worst.

“You think so too, Terrina?”

Elisha turned to the man who had gotten off the same boat as him.

Terina Ryanhowl

She, who led the Knights of the Nightcrawler Order, did not question Elisa’s question.

Elisa knew that Terina had the same thoughts as her.

At least in her eyes, Terina didn’t seem to be under any kind of brainwashing or control.

“···Elisa, as you know, this war is not a simple holy war.

“I know. And you don’t have to worry about us too much. In fact, that would be ignoring us. The teachers at Seorun teach students, but they are all elites.”

Moreover, the teachers became stronger after experiencing the Dreamland incident caused by Nirva before.

Rather than teachers holding back the Warmages, the opposite situation was more likely to unfold.

“Yeah, I think I can tell just by looking at your eyes.”

Terina decided not to say anything unnecessary.

Right now, we need to focus on the battlefield in front of us.

At that moment, Elisha felt the waves of magical power from afar and raised her eyebrows.

“Oh my goodness·”
