I went to school for nothing (315)
Lesson 61. An innocent sinner – 5
The classmate made one mistake.
The problem was that Eve swallowed the orb as it was.
Orb, a rare monster that contained the essence of the president, Zenon, and even the tower, was an artifact that had a frighteningly good compatibility with Eve, the phantom beast, but because of that, Eve moved to the next level.
Even Eve felt sorry for herself, but she couldn’t stop the flow, so she had no choice but to curl up in the air and retrieve Eve, who had turned into an egg, into her inventory.
‘Anyway, the virtual space is broken. The rest will be fine without Eve.’
Eve is an insurance-like existence that always reads the will of the anti-yuwon and diligently fills in his gaps.
Anxiety found a corner of her heart, but she struggled to shake it off and held Requiem in her hand.
[The time has come to prove that I can be more helpful than my sister!]
Lilith, who gained strength from her rival’s departure, exclaimed energetically and clung to his back.
Starting from the point where she clung to her, the wings of current with gripping sparks flowed along the sides of Ban Yu-Won’s shoulders.
Not only that, but the strange texture covering his whole body.
Ban Yu-won thought as he felt that concepts such as Lilith’s unique yo brain power, space transcendence breakthrough, and acceleration began to resonate more deeply with him.
This guy Geari…
“I thought he was copying Geary.”
[I’m much more upgraded! Abel doesn’t have a compression function, but anyway, it can be a reinforced suit for the former owner. It even has wings!]
Seeing the mecha dragon covering Asha’s body, he was so envious, and then he came up with a way to transform it into a reinforced suit using his versatile ability.
There is no way to know the detailed mechanism, but Lilith is a Yogi that continues to develop.
In other words, in the area related to machinery, he would be more thoroughly specialized than Banyuwon.
More than anything else, since she has a power source that surpasses her older sister Eve’s, her power source increases even if she simply adds it to Banyuwon.
[When I think about it, I don’t know why I didn’t come up with this method right away. It’s best to unite the two unless you’re going to ride the master on a bike or a fighter jet.]
That’s because even the semi-amusers lacked this kind of idea.
Of course, there was a downside that if Lilith’s power was turned to the semi-yuwon’s assistant, Abel would become unusable, but it didn’t matter, since Abel wouldn’t be able to use much power against Zenon, who was emitting a terrifying energy that would vanish at the touch.
―Boom kaaang kagagak!
Even while Ban Yu-Won was preparing for battle, Dok-Ko-Yeon and Shati collided with Zenon from above, and a roaring sound reverberated one after another.
Until the virtual space was broken, Zenon was focused on attacking Banyuwon, so the two were able to poke a gap, but now, Dokgoyeon, who was attacked directly by Dokgoyeon, and Shati, who desperately intervened in the middle to protect her, were both being pushed back by him.
“Let’s go too.”
“I was preparing, Master.”
“Neither… I won’t lose.”
“It will be difficult in close combat, but I will support you from behind.”
Even Ruchel and Asha Mira responded as if they were competing.
Looking back at Aire, who was the only one who didn’t have an answer, she was looking up at Zenon with an expression she had never made before.
An absurdly bloody smile.
“Ayre?”
“…oh.”
Aire, whose expression returned to normal at Ban Yu-Won’s call, shook her head and approached him.
“Go with me. That man is dangerous.”
“Ok, thanks.”
Perhaps hatred for the likes of Zenon is written into her genes.
Ban Yu-won kicked the floor ahead of the group, hoping that the emotions he had read from her were temporary.
[I’ll finish it right away, master!]
The concept of release [Breakthrough] and [Acceleration] increase the speed to the extreme.
In order to counteract the annihilation magic, he put [Stigma] and [Starlight] in his Requiem at the same time.
As a means of assisting and strengthening it, [Judgment], which increases strength when dealing with the wicked [Rebellion], which increases strength when dealing with an opponent stronger than oneself.
‘With the determination to end it in one blow.’
[Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!]
All these concepts are organically combined in the martial arts prayer sword, sublimating the movement of the anti-yuwon.
The moment the wings formed from Lilith’s energy were whipped in the air, Banyuwon was flying right in front of Zenon, who was rushing towards Dokgo Kite.
[Penetration]
However, just as he was about to pierce his eyebrows with a sharpened sword, he saw a smile on Zenon’s lips.
―The black magic that bloomed around Kwaaaa
fell on Banyuwon like petals closing.
He developed a prayer sword to read his opponent’s movements, but this goddamned transcendent was erasing even the movements of the concepts that constituted him with his magic power.
[Kyaa!]
“Keuh!”
A violent clash of energy occurred.
However, as I had thought before, Banyuwon’s abilities were overwhelmingly at a disadvantage against Zenon.
It destroys everything regardless of the meaning contained in it, so even if it contains the death of a god, it will disappear without meaning.
In terms of compatibility, the perfect top-down relationship.
Ban Yu-won managed to pull himself together and backed away, biting his lip.
‘That’s why I wanted to do an even more perfect surprise attack…!’
Zenon focused only on Dokgoyeon and pretended to attack, but kept an eye on Banyuwon.
His ultimate goal is to be an amusement park after all, but he has thoroughly concealed even that inside.
[Master’s Requiem!]
Lilith let out a scream, and the Banyuwon, who turned his gaze to check his sword, sighed inwardly.
The power contained in Requiem was lost while resisting against the magic of extinction.
It wasn’t that it was useless again, but it would take several months to replenish its energy.
“Careful!”
―Whilirik kagagak!
Dokgoyeon, who intervened from the side, blocked dozens of black whips that chased the retreating Banyuwon.
Kwajik It was the moment when the long sword of the beheader, which had supported Banyuwon in countless battlefields, cracked.
Ban Yoo-won groaned as he felt the energy of Dok-go-yeon swaying and then scattering.
“are you okay?”
“I’m fine, but—”
Dokgoyeon, who stood in front of Ban Yu-won as if protecting him, whispered to him.
Her complexion wasn’t very good because she had caused so many deaths in a short period of time, but her eyes were still shining brightly.
These are the eyes of those who have not given up on the game.
“The longer we drag on, the worse we are.”
Her gaze was fixed on the rest of the party, who used the gap created by Ban Yu-Won to receive Zenon’s attack and pressed Zenon in. Even if they managed to get rid of Zenon’s destructive magic, only Shati and Aire were capable of directly injuring him.
Ruchel and Asha had excellent offensive abilities, but they had no means of defending against annihilation magic, so they were likely to get caught up in his attacks.
“Killing students is something I don’t like, but I can’t help it if you keep trying to stop me!”
“You’re talking nonsense for being jealous of Yoo-won and trying to kill him… Ugh!”
“I think As Light students should get a more proper education.”
“damage!”
Zenon’s life grows stronger.
The wide dimension line contracted, and the walls in all directions were stained black.
Now that the president is gone, it is Zenon who holds the control of the dimension line, and he uses it to draw his powers to the power source of the dimension line and begin to materialize.
“He’ll be angry, but– I have to kill him now.”
The fact that he made full use of the orb to build a virtual space within the dimension line was only to deal with the anti-yuwon without being caught by the president, only within his own abilities.
If he mobilized everything he could and attacked without thinking back, he could easily overwhelm the party.
Dokgoyeon looked over the situation and spoke again with a firm voice.
“I will kill him.”
“But kite you too…”
“Give me that.”
Dokgoyeon stretched out her hand and pointed at Ban Yuwon’s chest.
He felt his body freeze for a moment.
“what?”
“I know. It’s the energy I deal with.”
“…kite.”
As the situation deepened, Ban Yu-won held in his arms the dagger that the president gave him one day.
He knew that he wasn’t ready to deal with it yet, but he was still convinced that it was better to grab hold of it and fight against it than to have all of his comrades fall victim to the transcendents of the Constellations and all.
However, I had no intention of handing this over to Dokgoyeon.
That would be the case too…
“This kite is not okay. Dangerous.”
It was because there was no guarantee that even Dokgo Yeon, who could handle the energy of death, would be able to handle this dagger properly.
“What kind of misunderstanding are you getting?”
However, Dok-go-yeon snorted at Ban Yu-won, who was worried about him.
Then, he reached out and grabbed the dagger that was in his arms at once.
“It was a notice, not an offer. Do you think there is time for hesitation?”
“you.”
“Get your mind straight, Ban Yu-won. If you die, everyone here will die with you.”
Dokgoyeon, who had called him by his full name after a long time, thrust the black dagger in his hand into the crack in the beheader’s long sword.
As she said, it’s the energy she’s been dealing with from the beginning, so she’s skillfully controlling it?
The melted dagger completely filled the cracks in the beheader’s long sword, and eventually dyed the entire sword body black.
Holding it with both hands, Dokgoyeon didn’t want to rush towards Zenon, but suddenly looked back at Banyuwon and mumbled as if he had something to say.
Even though she knew better than anyone that the situation was urgent.
“kite?”
“ah.”
Then, as he looked at him anxiously, he shook his head and smiled provocatively at him.
“I don’t have the energy to waste a single point, so make sure to open the way.”
“What I was going to say just now was—”
“Can you do it?”
“…good.”
He bit his lips in helplessness, but nodded helplessly.
I was worried about Dok-go-yeon, who tried to accept and deal with that vast energy, but there was no way to stop her as she had already made up her mind.
It would be better to support the battle so that it ends quickly.
“Cellon release!”
―You must win.
[Ugh, I’m really going to kill that bastard! Must!]
He pulled out all the amulets filled with energy and light from his inventory and activated them, drawing out all the energy of Celon and Lilith.
I literally squeezed out all that was left of him and manifested my holy light magic.
“Still with that… Chit!”
The moment Zenon reached out and summoned destruction that penetrated both Banyuwon and Dokgoyeon at the same time.
Dozens of beams of light sprang up across the air, crossing over the darkness and instantly destroying it.
If I can’t detect his power until right before it manifests, I pinpoint the exact moment it manifests and pour a barrage of light into it.
Although he couldn’t hit Zenon himself, it was enough to tear the annihilation mana he created.
Ban Yu-Won shouted while making a beam of light by calculating until his head exploded.
“Everyone support Kite! Tie that bastard!”
“Okay, Master!”
The party, who had been robbed by Zenon without mercy, also managed to catch their breath under the rays of light continuously emitted by the banyuwon.
He added sorcery to this, creating squares made up of starlight in all directions and amplifying the effect.
As he was determined and focused on assisting, the annihilation magic that filled the dimension line could not help but slow down.
The ceiling and floor, which had been stained black, shook and lost their power.
The duration would not have been long since he had poured all of his energy into it, but it was an amazing achievement in that even in the Union, Zenon’s ability to dare to claim himself as the second-in-command was suppressed.
“Cumbersome!”
“I have to say!”
Asha’s spear blocked the extinction magic that was trying to reach Banyuwon.
The mummy’s arrow that rose behind it burst the black tentacle stems that swayed behind Zenon’s back.
The explosion caused by Shati, aiming for an opening, made Zenon hesitate for a moment.
The nine fox fires that Ruchel shot with all her strength rushed in with sparks, removing the annihilation magic that had been protecting Zenon’s body.
“The dragon’s… enemy!”
“What?!”
No matter what kind of magic he used, Aire, who had only been able to erase it with his magical powers of destruction, cast ice magic while gritting his teeth, finally froze Zenon’s feet and restrained him so that he could not move.
Zenon was confident that he could erase all power sources of the dimension line even if given just one more second, but before that, Dokgoyeon, who was holding the sword of death, was already approaching.
“die.”
“Unfortunately, that much——!”
A cone-shaped thorn rose from Zenon’s empty stomach and collided with Dokgoyeon’s sword.
No, it looked like a bump, but it wasn’t.
“joy.”
“Cuck!”
Dokgoyeon and the sword she held passed through the thorns as if they were insubstantial――cleanly slicing Zenon from head to toe.
A sudden silence.
At the end of it, Zenon, who had already taken the form of a half-corpse, opened his mouth.
“…Do you know what you are doing?”
“I couldn’t cut it without doing this.”
“If I had known that, I should have avoided it even more.”
Zenon, who was split exactly in half, rolled his pupils and shot Dokgo Kite.
“You’re foolish, so you’re already dead–”
“under.”
As if he didn’t want to listen to his gossip, the blade he swung slashed his neck horizontally this time.
Zenon’s face, which split into two parts and each bounced into the air, looked strangely distorted.
In the next moment, all the extinction magic that was fiercely clashing with the holy light disappeared in that space.
The inside of the dimension line that the party was familiar with was revealed.
―Chaeeng――.
The sword fell and fell to the floor.
The semi-amuser, whose mana had run out, flapped Lilith’s fluttering wings and desperately approached her.
“kite!”
“are you okay.”
Dokgoyeon knelt on the floor and replied in a calm voice.
Arriving in front of her eyes, the half-yuwon tried to put her shoulder, but his hand passed through without touching her, just like Zenon did.
Involuntarily taking a deep breath―― Ban Yu-Won realized that what was reflected in his eyes was not wrong.
[Death]
Clearly, what is in front of him is Dokgo Yeon, but he sees only death in his eyes as he reads the concept.
I wish I hadn’t known what that meant.
“It’s okay Won. It’s okay…”
Dok-go-yeon whispers to him repeatedly that it’s okay.
His face was calm, as if he knew it would happen.
It may be that she was just pretending to be calm, but Ban Yu-Won could no longer read her emotions.
“That’s right. Candy…”
“It’s useless. Because I’m not sick anywhere right now. This is sublimation. Human beings change to death.”
Dokgo-yeon shook his head and stretched out his arm to Ban Yu-won, trying to grab his hand, but he couldn’t and smiled bitterly as he held on to the empty air.
“Since you dared to deal with death with a human body, if you fail to do so, the cause and effect will be reversed.”
“Dokgo Yeon?!”
After the fierce battle, Asha, who was out of breath and finally noticed the abnormality of Dokgo-yeon, screamed and ran, but stopped after being caught by Ruchel.
She opened her mouth at the sight of Lucille shaking her head in silence, not trying to say anything but drooping her shoulders and lowering her head.
“You… you knew it would end…”
“If I had to choose who should die, between you and me, it would be me. So I just did it… but you’re going to be bothered, right?”
“Don’t take it for granted! It’s so absurd that you die…!”
“You have no idea how happy I am to hear that.”
Dokgoyeon narrowed her eyes and smiled.
For some reason, she was smiling proudly as she watched Ban Yu-Won despairing at seeing all the concepts she could deal with, unable to overcome the death that made up the poisonous fate, and being bounced back even with jam and blood wine made from artifacts.
“Won look at me.”
“No, this is nonsense—”
“one.”
Dok-go-yeon, who had been staring at Ban Yu-won, who was kneeling at his level, slowly reached out and kissed him.
It was a kiss that felt neither warmth nor touch.
“I should have kissed you forcibly earlier.”
Dokgoyeon, who backed away from him again, frowned and smiled.
Ban Yu-won finally realized the change in her pupils.
Her cruciform pupils rotated too fast and sublimated into concentric circles emitting strange waves.
‘Maybe from the moment Yeon was born…’
Ban Yu-won sensed a strange phenomenon was happening in Dok-go-yeon.
To be precise, the mana reaction from the student ID she wore around her neck.
Similar to Banyuwon’s, but superior in quality.
It seems to be space movement magic, but it is a mixture of superior powers.
Sensing what it was, he clenched his fists.
It was cursed, but also fortunate at the same time.
“I’ll go find it.”
“Yes, I will believe you.”
Dokgoyeon, the culprit, must have realized what it was.
As if he had been waiting for Ban Yu-won’s words, he nodded and smiled shyly.
“I have something I want to say.”
“I hate to say goodbye.”
“No, not that.”
A halo of light enveloped Dokgoyeon.
It was a precursor phenomenon that appeared very briefly when moving to space using a student ID, but now it has become longer and it looks like Dokgo Yeon is emitting light all over the body.
The appearance of Dokgo-yeon wrapped in light was so beautiful that anyone who saw it would be mesmerized.
“i love you.”
“I love you too.”
“hmm.”
Dok-go-yeon nodded his head slightly, perhaps trying to hide his shyness at his words that jumped out as if he had been waiting for them, and smiled softly.
“Still, if it’s too late, I might go find you first.”
Whispering, he disappeared from the spot along with his glowing student ID.
There was nothing left in its place.
really nothing.
* * *
The heart of the Tower of Babel at that time.
One true name was added to the last line of the tombstone with the names of all constellations written on it.
[Dokgo Yeon – Eyes of Death]
