Episode 70

the southern tip of the continent.

Unlike the east and west, where various nations and tribes coexist, and the north, where the queen reigns over Ain, in the south there was little trace of humanity.

The Nastrond Plain blocking the way to the north.

A dense jungle and full of monsters.

A place where all kinds of superstitions and pagans flourish.

There are only rare races such as lizardmen, naga, sirens and harpies and a small number of humans living there.

There were only a few cities here, and a group of people were crossing the bushes.

“Is this right? If I make a mistake this time too, I might get a little angry~?”

“No, that’s right. Skyna-sama.”

The wizard, who was self-proclaimed as a guide, trembled under the pressure of her subtly annoyed.

“I applied for something to do research quietly. Even if it wasn’t for his flirting… , ha.”

He said it was an opportunity to observe the changes in Magi in front of his eyes.

‘You can’t even see your nose.’

It had been several months since I followed the traces of the Magi that appeared on the continent.

At first, I was clamoring for a sign that the Demon King would appear.

“The reverberation of the Magi remains here.”

As the head of the investigation team dispatched in a hurry, she could not shake the feeling that she was deceived by Barden.

“If I get it wrong this time, I know how to destroy that damn magic tool.”

“… I will definitely guide you properly.”

Berith grabbed the relic and resolutely answered.

No one sympathized with him.

There is also the character of him who said he was a disciple of the Tower of Light, but it was because most of the party were nervous about the schedule for several months.

‘When can I go back?’

Francisca rubbed her tired eyes.

I wasn’t acting impulsively.

Waiting for the prophecy to come true, she wanted to return to the Reinhardt estate. Then, all of a sudden, she remembered the person who had brought her here, and she put on a disgusted expression on her face.

Whis Arona, grandson of Grandel, the lord of the wind.

‘Even if the trash didn’t come at that time.’

Doing something like that when I was a kid, and then approaching me with such a brazen attitude as if nothing had happened.

I felt like I was going to do something after staying with him, so I turned away and applied for the investigation team.

As a result, he suffered all kinds of suffering for several months, so his hatred for him only grew bigger.

‘But still… .’

slurp-

When I put my hand in my arms, I could feel the texture of the crumpled paper I read over and over again.

‘Because I was able to get the certainty that he was the protagonist of the prophecy.’

As a result of his research on the Chimera, he rose to the 5th rank, and received instruction from Skyina, the head of the School of Change, in his spare time.

As she was about to continue her thoughts, the man in front shouted.

“I found it! I consider it! There is a lot of magic here… , what woman… ?”

When he came to his senses, he looked ahead and saw a woman lying between the blackened ground and the devastated terrain.

“The civilians here… ?”

“Wait for a moment!”

The wizards began to approach as if possessed. Even if Skyna shouted, it was no use. Only Skye and Francis Carr held her position.

“Why are you like this, Skyna-sama!”

“There can be no civilians here… !”

“eww… , uh?”

As if waiting for them, the woman immediately opened her eyes as they approached.

Skyna was immediately alerted to the immediate change.

The woman looked around in fear with a sad face.

“here is… ?”

“How is your body? Where have you been injured? .”

A pretty gesture and a neat face.

The ripped hem of his clothes as if he had been hit by something and the warm atmosphere of an unknown place combined to stimulate his protective instinct.

“We are investigating from the tower… .”

“Berrit! You bastard!”

As Skyina approached with a face in anger at Berit’s hasty behavior, his neck shrank.

“I don’t know who it is, but can you reveal our identities? Are you really crazy?”

“Ha, but it’s really civilian… .”

“Shut up and step back. From here I am going to interrogate.”

“Yes, ah, I see.”

He was trying to protect her, but he quickly woke up to her sunken eyes.

He is only a disciple of the Tower of Light, but his opponent is the head of the School of Change. There was no chin to compete with.

“therefore… , what’s your name~? Where are you from? Or, do you remember what you did a while ago?”

The woman, who looked as if frightened by their quarrel, barely opened her mouth at Skyina’s question.

“My name was Lilith, Lilith… I will.”

“Was it Lilith?”

The woman, Lilith, quickly lowered her eyes at the gathered gaze.

‘… … ?’

Seeing her like that, Francisca felt uncomfortable.

“Yes… , other than that, I don’t remember.”

Yeah, that’s… It was just such a feeble, little feeling that only she could feel, in her usual fit with everyone else… .

“… I’m really sorry I don’t know.”

Francisca’s eyes seemed to be smiling.

clearly.

Wow-!

When I looked down at the loud cheering sound, two Inyeongs were clashing their swords with a loud friction sound in the wide dance hall.

To be precise, one or the other is being pushed back.

“Benjamin, that’s all you can do!”

“Is it bad for you to pretend to be a commoner in this bastard?”

“Because I trusted only behind the vice president… , it’s over.”

Rumors spread through the academy, and three days later, a match took place as predicted.

The venue is the official dungeon in the main building.

As written in the black book, he is continuing the future he knew.

No restrictions. No intervention by others.

A bloody battle that can literally control life and death.

… So, most people thought that a fierce battle was going to take place.

Benjamin clenched his teeth and blocked the attack.

“Senior, why are you fighting like that, huh?”

“Big… .”

Contrary to expectations, the results were returned.

Swordsmanship with lightning strikes swiftly.

Diagonally down from the top and again from the bottom to the top left.

I didn’t know that the feel of the sword I had always practiced would feel so unfamiliar.

“They called me senior, and it was good.”

“Yeah, you should have done it in moderation.”

“But didn’t he say that he was a supplementary class? Just look at your skills… , it’s top notch.”

I didn’t mean to do this.

I tried to show off my skills as a senior and to warn the freshmen who have yet to get out of the water.

“Senior, why did you come all the way to the supplementary class with nothing but this?”

I was just trying to let other commoner students in the academy know that you can do it too.

“Did you see it as a supplementary class? Or did you see it as an opportunity to beat the nobles? yes?”

“… It wasn’t like that.”

“Tell me the truth. Then I can see you right now.”

“No, really… .”

Woo–

His mouth shut as he was about to say something.

blaming accusations.

Countless anonymous accusations filled the eardrums behind the opaque curtain that covered the theater.

“What is this? The old man was famous. Sometimes, it’s about arguing.”

Benjamin smiled sadly.

Even though he had a will, Benjamin’s actions were nothing more or less than an arrogant commoner who believed in the rankings for those who did not know the story behind him.

“… Then just come, baby.”

“Now you are revealing your true nature. So now seriously… .”

Julius, who showed a laugh at Benjamin’s real soil, not the real soil, released the compressed electric shock.

“Goes.”

Blue lightning flashed.

Against him, blood magic burst out.

The fight is over.

The victory was a victory for Julius, who had always had the upper hand.

As soon as the match was over, Benjamin moved to the infirmary right next door.

‘Through this case, he will become hostile to the student council in earnest.’

Looking at the results, Allen did what he wanted.

No, it was meant to be like this, even if he didn’t intend it.

Has the same thing happened in the past?

However… .

“… … Like this, this is not the result.”

When he turned his head to the sound of a low murmur, he saw the second prince with a distorted expression.

“How, how can you do this… !”

“Vice president, no, the prince… .”

Benjamin smiled bitterly.

“Didn’t you know that one day this would happen? I didn’t want this result, but… .”

“It was all for the academy.”

“My self-interest was also mixed.”

Allen stared at him, breathing hard.

“Even so, isn’t this too bad?”

His gossip wasn’t good.

He had scars all over his body and a pale complexion.

Crucially, the condition of the magic circuit was too serious.

“Even if it gets better, will it be able to recover half of it? . maybe… .”

The therapist who was examining him next to him was speechless.

permanent injury.

He didn’t say anything, but now his life as a warrior was almost over.

Maybe, I won’t be able to hold a sword for the rest of my life.

“He probably didn’t really mean to do this either, haha… .”

Benjamin hid his trembling hands deep in the blanket.

A dark and gloomy atmosphere permeated the inside of the infirmary.

Allen saw all this from a distance away.

‘… Could this match have been prevented?’

Or, could he have prevented his injury?

He and Benjamin are not friends.

It was the first and last time we talked three days ago.

If you think logically, you can see that if Allen told him this would happen, he would have the same future.

If it wasn’t for him, someone else would have gone through it.

‘Really?’

It’s easy for them to become enemies of Julius, so aren’t they just neglecting them?

Was it really that difficult to produce a result other than this?

Several thoughts clung to each other.

He was Benjamin, who had no acquaintance with him, but he couldn’t stand to see people’s lives ruined.

However, in order to confront Julius, his sacrifice is indispensable.

Was it not arrogance to think that he could deal with everything on his own?

I needed an ally, I needed a cause.

Guilt, avoidance, blindness, self-excuse and hypocrisy.

It wasn’t a wave of emotions.

‘It’s something I was determined to do early on.’

What matters is how you deal with it after that.

Before returning, I fully experienced the limitations of fighting alone and the consequences. He pondered because he wasn’t sure how to act.

That’s how it happened… .

‘Now is the time to move.’

It is an opportunity that has been created.

Allen left the infirmary behind with some kind of determination.

The light pouring down into the passageway was sharply divided.

– wow

From the other side of the dark passageway, cheers rang out.

“Julius, are you okay? Anywhere you are injured… .”

“Thanks for your efforts! I was worried about being a senior, but as expected Yul… .”

“I really didn’t think I was going to win. A fool like you… .”

『──Unlike the main characters in novels, Julius felt comfortable that he cut off the hindquarters exhilaratingly.』

『——This is cider. Since I broke my heart properly, there’s no need to attack again. Because I have no intention of treating you like a tiger.”

Outside the dungeon, Julius was surrounded by several women.

“Ah, brother! I consider it! Where have you been!”

“I was watching from afar. You fought well.”

Even though Allen ruined a person’s life, he is smiling and talking casually.

“Haha, have you been watching?”

It was disgusting.

“Yes, congratulations on your victory.”

“If I had known that you were there, I would have fought harder. ha ha ha.”

so unbearable.

Allen walked aimlessly.

It didn’t matter if I went back to the dormitory… , I wanted to organize my thoughts while walking today.

Allen was walking down an alley with few people, and suddenly opened his mouth.

“Do you think my way is wrong?”

“You don’t know that? It’s already past.”

“… It has already passed.”

“The future is unknown. Because there really is no such thing as the present. Don’t make such a gloomy face and think about what you’re going to do in the future. If you regret the past, you can do better in the future.”

Bestla had a lot to say for some reason.

“right. that sword! Now that my academy life is stable, how about giving me a new scabbard? Giving a gift makes both the recipient and the giver feel good! Did I say Sindri earlier? My skills are good, but please find a sword that suits me. Are you okay? right?」

“Thanks for the comfort.”

“Yes? You didn’t mean to?”

Hmm-

A small smile appeared on Allen’s hardened face.

“Then do that.”

“… … Look, you didn’t really mean it that way, did you? Who do I like really.”

My heavy footsteps felt a little lighter.

‘Yes, you can’t have everything in your hand.’

Have you already decided how to act?

“Then let’s go back… , I will clean it with the best fish oil after a long time. It is an award.”

“… What is the prize?”

Bestla grunted for nothing.

When I was about to take a step back like that.

Aeon-

A bundle of brown fur came out of the alley next door.

“Even in places like this, stray cats live… .”

Did one of the students raise it and throw it away?

It was then that he resumed the paused pace after watching the cat for a while.

“… … ?”

“… I will meet you here.”

A woman who claims to be the heir of a warrior.

A beautiful woman with white hair like snow and a blank expression who doesn’t know what she’s thinking.

“… hello.”

Maria Caritas.

She slowly walked out of the alley.

“hi.”
