Episode 39. Demonstrating their skills
Nickel and Timur, who gradually appeared in the subspace, were no ordinary undead no matter who saw them.
In particular, in the case of Nickel, which had evolved once and awakened the power of indolence, it exuded a languid dignity that was difficult to approach recklessly.
“Undead?”
“Warlock!”
Glau and Mantos shouted in turn.
Judging from how late he found out my identity, he must have come unaware of anything.
I don’t know why, but it didn’t seem like good intentions, so I immediately gave orders to Timur.
“Leave half alive. At least I need to know what the purpose was and who the client was.”
Timur let out a low cry at my command and stepped forward wagging his sleek tail.
“You’re arrogant with only two undead.”
“If you kill the sorcerer anyway, stop!”
Mantos stood in front of Timur, and as if he thought that was enough for my undead, Glau aimed directly at me.
Mantos took out the double ax from his back and raised it.
Then Timur clenched his fists and roared and ran out.
Khuhuong!
As I watched the situation, a hatchet flew from somewhere.
As I tilted my head slightly to the side to avoid it, I got stuck in a tree next to me.
“What? Do you have good reflexes?”
“I am curious too. What are your reflexes?”
I pulled out the ax stuck next to it and circulated the mana.
The power of mana activates the body, and an ordinary human being cannot touch it.
Whirly Rick.
Dig!
“Ouch!”
Glau just watched me playfully and hurriedly ran away.
However, the hatchet, which flew at unexpected speed, cut off the tip of Glau’s ear and drove it into the tree behind him.
“What are you?”
thud!
Khuong!
At the same time as Glau’s surprised question, Mantos flew through the air.
Although the duration is not long because there is not much mana, Timur, who displays monstrous skills, was playing with Mantos while he had mana.
“What is this….”
I let Glau stare blankly at him and walked forward, giving Nickel a hand.
Then Nickel naturally passed his sword into my hand.
“You should be my practice partner.”
Glau, who saw me approaching with a sword, looked around while touching his face as if he couldn’t understand all of this.
“Is it a dream?”
“It is not a dream. Goblin.”
I said, raising my sword.
“Don’t disappoint me. Go ahead and show your skills.”
* * *
Diene tried to save the students as much as possible, but he couldn’t save the first student.
His hands were covered in blood and his whole body was stained with blood, but his efforts were useless.
She was able to save one, though, so she sat beside him, waiting for help to come.
“Mrs. Diene.”
“Do not say. Someone will come to help soon, so don’t overdo it and hold on.”
“Is Taylor dead?”
“…will be alive don’t worry.”
Diene was also a student who was dragged away, but she was also worried about Adrias Cromwell.
Those who never seem to have attacked with good intentions.
‘Why the hell is anyone targeting Adrias?’
I would rather have targeted myself.
At that time, a shout was heard from around.
“Looks like you came. Cheer up a little more.”
However, unlike her hopeful cry, those who appeared were those wearing black robes and exuding a somber atmosphere.
“I found Diene Alven.”
“Quickly report to Kidwell.”
Diene, who had been listening to their conversation, stood up cautiously.
“Who are you?”
“You don’t know, Diene Alven.”
“Are you just part of them?”
“They?”
One of the characters in the robe, who briefly questioned Diene’s words, said as if he understood.
“Looking at the forage, it seems that the crossbreeds came and went first. How the hell are you still alive?”
“What is your purpose? Reveal your identity.”
“Identity? Ask your father in the other world.”
Are you looking for me too?
Diene’s head turned furiously.
She immediately erected a barrier of thorns of ice to control the surroundings.
Soon after, a huge magical storm raged around Diene.
“As expected, Bahat Alven’s daughter. A monster’s offspring is a monster, isn’t it?”
Unless the opponents were students, there was no need to adjust their strength.
She hadn’t hurt anyone yet, but she wasn’t the type to show mercy to an enemy who was seeking her life.
Wow.
Diene’s magical power was a huge flow that a criminal could not touch.
Maybe it’s because it’s a snowy mountain?
The flow created by her mana and spells turned into a huge snow storm.
“Obviously strong. But you are still young.”
The waste of mana thought so.
Rather, he should have used a little combat magic with that mana.
Rob’s personnel rushed in.
A few of them remained in place and developed magic, but it was a small attack magic that didn’t matter.
‘If only… ….’
Diene couldn’t leave her seat even to protect the remaining students.
Soon after, the enemy’s magic broke through the blizzard and knocked on the barrier.
The weakened magic couldn’t break the barrier, but it was enough to shake the inexperienced Diane’s heart.
‘It can’t go on like this.’
She warmed her heart.
And with the maddening pain, he endured the load on his head.
Then sharp pieces of ice bloomed like flowers blooming everywhere.
“Double casting?”
The man in the robe who was giving orders from behind couldn’t help but be astonished at the scene.
Double casting at the same time using this massive amount of magic?
Are you saying that a woman who has just turned 20 is right?
Ice fragments floated in the air and poured down towards the approaching enemies.
Its speed and power remained even after penetrating an opponent, leaving it to the point of being pinned to the ground.
Fuck! hooked
Originally, it was an attack that would have been blocked, but it was impossible in a fierce snowstorm.
Half of the more than 10 Robes who approached through the blizzard lost limbs or died in that single shot.
However, perhaps because of overdoing it, Diene suffered a nosebleed and was unable to continue the follow-up attack.
“haha….”
The five surviving Robes approached her as she knelt.
One of them crossed the barrier first, holding a sword.
“You really took the opportunity. If we had grown a little more or had more experience, we would have been the ones who would have suffered.”
“I don’t know who instigated it, but you guys won’t be fine either.”
“haha. Are you worried about us? Now, the lady has to worry about that… ….”
Whiik – Tak.
Push!
While talking, someone flew in from above and stepped on the shoulder, creating a hole in the opponent’s head and coming down to the floor.
Robin, who spewed blood from his head, collapsed on the floor in despair.
“you are…?”
The one who suddenly appeared and saved Diene was a masked swordsman.
He looked back at Diene and then moved forward to deal with the approaching enemies.
“Who are you!”
“Kill it first!”
The Robes tried to join forces, but those who came through the blizzard could not be defeated by the masked swordsman.
The swordsman in the mask moves as if predicting the opponent’s movement, stabbing or slashing vital points with swift speed.
squeak.
“Quaaaaa!”
The masked swordsman who killed five in an instant stared at the robed wizards in the distance.
The robe wizards who were watching him were at a loss and couldn’t do anything about it.
“Who is that? The assistants in the Faculty of Engineering must have tied their feet, right?”
“Kidwell! When will Kidwell-sama come back!”
At that time, someone approached from the back of the robes with a dripping water supply.
“Kidwell? Are you talking about this guy?”
Ivy Claire approached with a smile.
* * *
Originally, he didn’t want to step out, but when he saw Diene’s crisis, he had no choice but to do so.
She is one of the seeds that can prevent the end of the world.
I couldn’t let him die in a place like this.
‘It wasn’t just me. Did you target her in the first place?’
One question is that it is an event that has never been heard of in the game.
For something of this scale, there should be some mention at the beginning of the game.
‘Did I change the future?’
Then I’ll have to clean it up.
Watching from the nearby woods, I received the mask and sword I had obtained from Bloody Dan earlier from Nickel and reverse-summoned him.
And when I put on the mask and shed mana, my appearance changed.
I couldn’t change it greatly, but I changed it so that I couldn’t guess my identity, and I immediately ran out of the forest and ran through the snowstorm.
Upon activating her mana, due to her excellent athleticism, she instantly jumped over the ice barrier created by Diene and landed on the head of the man who was trying to harm her.
As he fell, he lightly pierced the opponent’s head and checked Diene’s condition.
‘Did you use double casting?’
One day she will become a monster who can cast not only doubles but also triple quadruples.
But in my memory, it wasn’t until at least the next year that she double casted.
Putting aside whether this growth was a good thing or a bad thing, he dealt with the approaching enemies first.
breakup liquid.
Athletic talent was also athletic talent, but from what I felt, combat talent was morale-level talent.
If athletics are A-class, should I say combat is S-class?
Whiik!
The opponent’s sword grazed my mask with a hair-tip difference.
Soon after, I calculated the angle and speed of the opponent, and as if I had predicted in advance, I blocked a series of attacks and cut off the enemy’s wrist.
squeak.
“Quaaaaagh!”
I cut off his throat as he screamed and brushed off the blood on his sword.
After killing all five of them, I occasionally saw robed wizards who were casting attack magic from afar.
The moment I thought I had to deal with them all.
‘Ivy Claire.’
I turned around as Ivy soon appeared behind them.
I’ve done enough, so now I have to hide before I get caught.
Ivy will take care of the remaining guys anyway.
“Wait!”
Diene hurriedly called me as I was about to return to the forest.
You know I’ve been hiding my identity for no reason.
If my true identity is discovered, it becomes a nuisance in many ways, not to mention where my mask and sword came from.
So I ignored her cries and walked past.
“name! Just tell us your name! Our family will reward you!”
“Not required. Guard yourself.”
Fortunately, the voice came out altered.
I just hid in the woods.
* * *
Ivy killed all the remaining Robes and kept only about two alive for evidence.
‘If it was like before, I would have killed everyone, but….’
Adrias Cromwell.
At the time, he was a foolish wizard who stood up proudly in front of himself, who spewed out death due to his hatred of black magicians.
Thanks to him, I realized that I needed a witness.
“Are you okay?”
“yes. thank you.”
Ivy approached Diene, whose nose had stopped bleeding.
However, Diene pointed to the student who had fallen on the floor first.
“This student is more urgent than me. I tried to stop the bleeding, but there was so much bleeding… ….”
“okay. I’ll check.”
While looking at the fallen student’s condition, Ivy asked about the unknown swordsman who had disappeared when she appeared.
“Who was he just now?”
“I don’t know either. I asked your name to give you a reward, but you didn’t answer.”
“Something suspicious.”
“Suspicious!”
Diane shook her head.
Unlike her tired body, her eyes were shining brightly.
“I am by no means suspicious. Did you save me?”
“It’s suspicious that you don’t know your identity. For now, rescue will come from somewhere else, so take a break.”
Diene couldn’t accept Ivy’s words.
And he recalled when the masked swordsman appeared again.
‘Wearing a mask… …test.’
Something that could only appear in a fairy tale he longed for actually happened.
She looked back at the forest where he had disappeared and let out an excited sigh.
